"Wait." As soon as Lan Xue heard this, she quickly intervened, observed through the sniper scope for a while, and also spotted the target Luo Zheng ntioned. After a mont of contemplation, she continued, "Arctic Bear Country thinks the missile killed us, so there have been no pursuers these days, allowing us to get here smoothly. The shot just now has already exposed our presence. However, it has at least stirred up conflict between the Terrorist Organization and Arctic Bear Country. For the ti being, Arctic Bear Country will not focus on us, and the terrorists think it was Arctic Bear Country that fired. If we shoot now, we will definitely be exposed, and the consequence might be Arctic Bear Country and the Terrorist Organization teaming up to hunt us down."
Luo Zheng understood this logic, thought for a while, and said, "Everything has its pros and cons. By killing that important target, the terrorists might bla Arctic Bear Country. Of course, the odds are fifty-fifty. Even if we are exposed, as long as that target is dead, the people from the training camp will definitely go crazy looking for us. With Arctic Bear Country's threat, they might speed up their evacuation, which would be to our advantage."
The two, having fought side by side, faced a divergence in their ideas for the first ti, but this did not affect making the right decision. Lan Xue was open-minded and knew that Luo Zheng's analysis made sense. She said, "No matter how we choose, there are pros and cons. What do you guys think?"
Ghost Hand whispered through the headset, "To shoot has its benefits, and not to shoot has its benefits too. Until sothing happens, no one can say which option is the correct one."
"Exactly, who can clarify things on the battlefield? More importantly, we do not know how close the relationship really is between these terrorist organizations and the Arctic Bear Country's military. If we choose not to fire, will they reconcile? Everything is unpredictable," Mountain Eagle calmly analyzed.
"If you ask , there's no need for all these complications. Let's deal with the imdiate situation first, take whatever advantages we can, and worry about the rest later," Snow Leopard said indifferently.
After listening to everyone's analysis, Luo Zheng pondered, his eyes slightly closed and his eyebrows tightly knitted. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in a low voice, "Snow Leopard Brothers are right. Things change instantly on the battlefield. Let's take any advantages we can. By eliminating the target, we will expose ourselves, but we will also cause trouble for the Terrorist Organization. If that target is indeed the top leader, what do you think the others will do once the leader is killed?"
"Hiss?" Lan Xue's eyes lit up, thinking of a possibility, and she imdiately changed her opinion, "Makes sense. If the leader is killed, those below will definitely seek revenge, blaming one party to make sense of it to the Terrorist Organization's top boss. Who's the most suitable? Obviously, it's Arctic Bear, who they've already clashed with. Even if the training camp people know about our presence, they would still bla Arctic Bear because they carry enough weight. Blaming unknown entities like us would be embarrassing for them, and the responsibility would not be cleanly shifted, so the Terrorist Organization's top boss might not believe them."
"Makes sense, let's do it," Mountain Eagle spotted the target moving and urged urgently.
Luo Zheng also noticed the target moving and imdiately said, "The target is mine. Xue Er, Mountain Eagle, you two snipe Levsky simultaneously. That guy has a very strong sense of danger. Once he's locked on, he'll sense it, so be careful."
"Understood," the two replied imdiately.
"Ready." Luo Zheng quickly got into position, loaded an Incendiary Bomb, smirked, and whispered, "I'll count to one and we fire simultaneously. Ready, three, two, one."
"Whoosh!" Three sniper bullets soared through the air, creating a terrifying energy shockwave in the Void. They emitted a sharp, buzzing screech, like the sinister laugh of Death God, fiercely pouncing towards their respective targets.
Through the sniper scope, Luo Zheng saw Levsky twist his body in a bizarre manner. He fell to the ground at an incredible angle, miraculously avoiding the simultaneous sniping of Lan Xue and Mountain Eagle. Only his arm was injured. After falling, he rolled continuously at a high speed. As for the suspected key target, who did not possess strong perceptive abilities or agility, he could not escape Luo Zheng's ferocious sniper attack.
The Incendiary Bomb struck the target hard, instantly exploding into nurous particles of Flammable Agent. The entire person was wrapped in a horrifying blaze, impossible to pat out. The target scread in agony, rolling on the ground. The Flammable Agent, sticking to the body, did not extinguish but instead burned more vigorously.
Many people who saw the target hit by the Incendiary Bomb, rushed forward to help extinguish the fire, but they quickly got contaminated with the Flammable Agent and caught fire themselves. Soon, the high temperature, enough to lt steel, caused the target to lie motionless on the ground, the screams ceased, and many onlookers were horrified by the scene, not knowing what to do.
At that mont, Levsky rolled under a building and let out a beast-like roar, indicating the direction of the gunfire. Many people reacted, grabbing their guns and rushing out of the camp.
Luo Zheng saw Levsky ferociously roll to the back of the building and disappear, knowing he had lost the chance to shoot again. He pounded the ground with a frustrated punch. Lan Xue and Mountain Eagle also looked pale with anger. The two, working together, had not been able to eliminate their opponent, feeling quite humiliated. Their eyes filled with cold murderous intent, they continued searching for targets through the sniper scope, unwilling to give up. Upon hearing Luo Zheng's command to retreat, they had no choice but to abandon their efforts.
The camp's personnel had already given chase. If they did not run now, it would be too late. Everyone quickly retreated, sprinting away. Ten minutes later, the wind grew stronger, swaying the surrounding trees wildly. Luo Zheng looked up at the sky, dark clouds looming overhead, predicting the imminent torrential rain, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
They ran wildly for a few more minutes. The storm arrived sooner than expected. Thunder rumbled in the distance, followed by large raindrops pouring down heavily, stinging their faces. The howling wind made visibility low, and they had to slow down. The footprints they passed along the way were quickly washed away by the rain. Under such severe weather, tracking beca very difficult.
"Boom!" Another thunderclap roared, as if to burst the entire sky, the loud noise causing hearts to flutter. Then, a massive flash of lightning, like a fiery dragon furiously dancing across the horizon, shocked everyone. The wind grew even stronger, causing the rain to fly chaotically, squinting their eyes.
"Move fast," Luo Zheng shouted through the headset. The sound of the pouring rain filled his ears; he had to shout to be heard. Everyone understood that such terrible weather was not suitable for moving; it was easy to fall ill. Plus, with the lightning, if their guns conducted electricity, that could be disastrous. They had to find shelter.
"Run!" Lan Xue commanded coldly, also aware of the dangers of the storm. Intense concern flashed in her eyes. Everyone braced themselves and began to run faster.
