Chapter 224 A Person's Escape

In the rainforest, heat waves rolled and large amounts of steam evaporated. From the sky, the air was filled with smoke.

In the smoke-filled ruins, the mercenary captain's body had been scorched and twisted by the high temperature, making it difficult to recognize his original appearance.

The skin was shrunken and cracked, revealing the charred muscles and bones underneath, as if it had been cruelly torn apart by the hands of a demon.

The body of one mercenary was still in its last posture before death, lying down in defense, as if making a final struggle and prayer.

His hair had long since turned to ash, his head had turned as black as charcoal, and his clothes were burnt to shreds, clinging to his flesh and giving off a pungent, burnt smell.

In their empty eye sockets, there is no longer the brilliance of life, only the silence and terror of death.

Marianne ran desperately, her breathing rapid and disordered, her heart beating wildly in her chest, as if trying to break free.

Behind him were the relentless pursuers. There were too many of their suicide drones, and the buzzing sound kept flying over their heads.

"It's only been a short time..." Marian felt fear again. She remembered that there were quite a few mercenaries left behind.

Moreover, we also have drones and robot dogs. Are they all dead?

Thinking of this, Marian's remaining composure disappeared. She didn't even have the face to look for General Ryan. After a series of bombings, both sides had already run away.

"No! I can't die here, I want to live." Marian said gritting her teeth.

Then she plunged into the depths of the rainforest. The lush branches and leaves kept whipping her face and body, causing bursts of pain, but she did not dare to stop for a moment.

Sweat soaked her clothes and mixed with the dust on her face, making her look disheveled.

At this time, there were bursts of thunder in the sky, and soon it began to rain heavily.

The arrival of rain made Shangguan Zai and his group who were chasing them curse loudly. The current drones lack waterproof function and are basically unable to fly in heavy rain.

Marian, who was fleeing for her life, did not dare to stop and wandered blindly through the rainforest, trying to find a safe hiding place.

Suddenly, there was a sharp whistling sound in the sky, followed by an earth-shaking explosion.

The missiles were like the devil's claws, ruthlessly tearing the rainforest apart.

Flames shot up into the sky, instantly illuminating the dark corner.

Marian turned her head in horror and saw the woods behind her turned to ashes in an instant in the explosion, and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled her nostrils.

Her eyes widened and a desperate scream came from her throat, but was drowned out by the continuous explosions.

The strong shock wave knocked her to the ground, her ears buzzed, and the world seemed to collapse at this moment.

After a long time, when the sky returned to calm, it was already dark.

Marian struggled to get up from the ground, and saw a hellish scene before her.

Her teammates disappeared, leaving only burning trees and billowing smoke.

Her body couldn't stop shaking, and tears blurred her vision. From childhood to adulthood, today was the most embarrassing day.

In the darkness of the rainforest, countless dangers will come. Without navigation and companions, fear is like an icy hand, tightly strangling her heart.

The most dangerous thing was the cold. Her backpack was in tatters, and many of her clothes were lost, leaving her with nothing to keep warm.

Her lips trembled, her mind was blank, unable to think, only endless fear and despair spread in her heart.

Looking around, everything around me became strange and terrifying, and every shadow seemed to hide the threat of death.

Marianne collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, as if she would be swallowed by the endless fear in the next second.

Two hours later, the flooding rain spread, and everything around became pitch dark and muddy.

Marian huddled alone in a corner of the rainforest. Night fell and the cold attacked her body like a ghost.

She hugged herself tightly, trying to retain that little bit of body temperature, but the humid air mercilessly took away her heat.

Hunger was always there, and her stomach, already empty, protested painfully.

The long run and high mental tension made her exhausted, but she couldn't find anything to fill her stomach.

The surrounding rainforest was filled with unknown dangers. In the darkness, poisonous insects were crawling in the shadows, ready to climb onto her body at any moment.

Those colorful poisonous spiders lurked on the branches with their fangs and claws bared.

There were also buzzing mosquitoes, swarming around her, greedily sucking her blood.

The roars of wild beasts could be heard from the distance from time to time, making her hair stand on end.

She didn't know whether a pair of cold eyes would appear from the darkness in the next moment and treat her as prey.

The ground beneath her feet was also full of dangers. Leeches quietly clung to her legs and greedily sucked her blood, but she was completely unaware.

Marianne didn't dare act on her own for the entire night. Although she was stupid, she was not foolish.

The enemy's missiles were so accurate, they must have motion capture devices, but it was a pity that she was shivering all night.

Fortunately, the dagger she carried with her gave her the final guarantee of safety.

When the rainforest began to dawn, Marian shivered and tried to find a drier place to stay, otherwise she would freeze to death on the spot.

At this moment, she had to be careful with every step she took, for fear of disturbing the poisonous snake hiding in the grass.

Raindrops dripped from the gaps in the leaves and hit her body, making her feel even colder and more helpless.

It was only then that she truly regretted having done something so extreme.

If I had known this would be the outcome of escaping, I would have released all the piglets.
