For a moment of thrill, Luo Chen binds to a villain system. After finally finishing his role, he is told that he failed. To get the wish granted by the system and return home, Luo Chen starts over ...
Luo Chen gently helped Number Five sit up straight to ease the pain in his wound, then looked around.
There's not much water around here, except for a small bag of water in the first-aid kit, which was ultimately used to clean the wound.
"Damn it, I should have brought some water." Luo Chen frowned. He had forgotten to bring the most important thing. Now that everything was destroyed, where could he find a water source?
The surrounding area is all yellow soil, and there is no water source at all.
"Forget it, let's search some more." Luo Chen started a thorough search again, since their only hope now rested on Number Five.
After Luo Chen's thorough search, he was finally blessed by heaven and found a bag of water. Although there was only half a bag left, it was better than having no medicine at all.
"Come on, open your mouth." Luo Chen helped Number Five sit up, then picked up the water bag and poured water into his mouth little by little.
Upon touching the water, Number Five licked its lips and immediately sensed the source of life, gulping it down.
Luo Chen couldn't understand why Number Five was in that location. If he had really been kidnapped, why not take Number Five with him instead of leaving him here alone?
I'm very confused, but once Number Five recovers, all my doubts will be resolved.
"Xiao... Brother Xiao..." Number Five drank some water and became slightly more awake. He weakly opened his eyes and looked at Luo Chen, gripping Luo Chen's sleeve tightly.
Luo Chen nodded, looked down at number five, and comforted him, "I know, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. Take a break and calm down. I'm right here, don't be afraid."
Although things were urgent, Luo Chen knew he couldn't panic. Since there was already hope, everything was possible.
Regardless of what those men in white had in mind when they kidnapped Lao Tie and the others, it at least shows that they are safe now.
It's very simple. If those men in white didn't care about them, they definitely wouldn't have taken Lao Tie and the others away. He only needed to take Mu Shanhai.
Since they were taken away, it means they are safe for the time being.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely go and have some fun with them. I, Luo Chen, am no good person," Luo Chen said calmly, gazing at the clusters of sparks.
Number Five finally fell asleep. After all, the immense pressure had made his whole body tense, but now that Luo Chen was by his side, he could finally sleep peacefully.
The night was quiet, but Luo Chen didn't go to sleep. Instead, he found a few guns, fortunately none of which were badly damaged.
After loading the guns with bullets, Luo Chen simply leaned against the mound of earth and dozed off.
Get yourself into the best possible state.
"Big brother, it's right here." A voice rang out.
Luo Chen's ears twitched, and he instantly woke up.
"Is it the two of them?" Luo Chen asked, puzzled, upon hearing the somewhat familiar voices in the distance.
It seems to be the same two people who blocked his way down the mountain earlier.
Luo Chen lowered his gaze and met Number Five's eyes. Seeing that Number Five was also looking at him, he said, "Awake?"
Number Five nodded slightly.
“Someone’s coming. I’ll move him to the back first, just in case.” Luo Chen lifted Number Five up and dragged him to the ruins of the house where they had been staying. There was a low wall there that could be used as cover.
Then Luo Chen tossed him a gun and said calmly, "I'll go outside and keep watch. You stay here and don't make a sound. I'm not going anywhere."
Number Five nodded and gave a soft "hmm".
Luo Chen then picked up his gun, hunched over, and went to the mound of earth on the flat ground. He then set up the machine gun in his hand and waited quietly.
In the distance, the tall man pointed to the ruins ahead and said, "Brother, this seems to be the place. We should be here."
The short man touched his elbow, which was a little sore, and a look of resentment rose in his eyes. That kid had just thrown a bomb.
The two were forced to run backward, but they were still affected by the force of the bomb.
Even a master is human; his body isn't made of steel, so the power of a grenade shouldn't be underestimated.
"Finally found him! This brat, I'm going to skin him alive!" the short man said fiercely, holding his gun. The reason they had only arrived now was that they had gone up the mountain to scout out the situation there.
They discovered that all of their men had been killed, and upon reflection, they realized it was Luo Chen, whom they had met on the road.
"Don't worry, boss, this time we'll make that kid pay the price." The tall man chuckled, holding three hand grenades in his large hand.
Since you like using grenades so much, I'll let you have your fill.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Luo Chen closed his eyes slightly and exhaled slowly. Now that he had confirmed the identities of the other party, he naturally knew that there were two Grandmasters on the other side.
Although the short man wasn't a true grandmaster, he possessed the abilities of a half-step grandmaster.
Luo Chen didn't want to engage in close combat with them, as it would only deplete his stamina, and their coordinated attacks would only entangle him in a fight.
This was very disadvantageous for him, so he couldn't deal with the two of them quickly.
Therefore, using a gun is still better.
Luo Chen opened his eyes, held his breath, and waited quietly for the two to arrive.
"Brother, this is it. That kid should be here." The tall man walked down the hillside, came to the roadside, and pointed to the ruins across the way, saying happily.
"Nonsense, do you think I'm blind?" The short man rolled his eyes and continued, "Be careful, that kid is still here, he's probably hiding."
"Hmph." A smile appeared on Luo Chen's lips as his finger slowly approached the trigger.
"Closer, even closer." Although Luo Chen didn't have a scope, the scattered fire from the surroundings still dispelled much of the darkness.
He believed that with his abilities, he should have a chance.
Although reaching the Grandmaster level greatly improves all aspects of physical health, even when facing bullets, as long as there is enough time to react, there is a chance to dodge them.
But you can dodge one bullet, but what about two?
Three?
"Idiot, squat down." The short man kicked the tall man next to him and scolded him softly.
"Big brother, I was bending over." The tall man scratched his head, looking a little aggrieved. He had clearly bent over, so why was his brother scolding him?
The shorter man glanced at him and saw that he was indeed bending over. He muttered, "So what if you're tall?"
The two men, each holding a gun, carefully made their way towards level ground.
Regardless, we still need to use guns.
If something can be resolved with a gun, try not to use force; doing so will only be detrimental to yourself.
"Okay, that's settled." Luo Chen pushed all his nerves to their limit, waiting for the right moment to appear.
As the two crossed the road, Luo Chen slowly moved his finger toward the trigger.
Bang!
The loud gunshots were especially clear in the night.
"Watch out!" The shorter man reacted instantly, but it was too late; the bullet wasn't coming at him.
Instead...
"Ouch, big brother, that hurts!"
The tall man let out a roar, and his previously calm face instantly contorted into a grimace.
The gun slipped from his hand instantly, and a bullet struck his left arm.
"Crouch down, quick, find cover!" the short man shouted urgently, then quickly pulled the trigger in Luo Chen's direction.
He understood that the other side was definitely looking for a second chance, so he had to provide covering fire so that the tall guy could quickly find cover.
Bang bang bang!
The muzzle sparked a brilliant burst of light.
Under the calm night sky, a fierce gunfight suddenly broke out.
"Damn, such a quick reaction, yet it missed." Luo Chen sighed inwardly when he saw the bullet miss.
The original plan was that if the first shot missed, Luo Chen would fire a second shot in the next second.
After being shot, the opponent will definitely experience a subconscious pain, and Luo Chen plans to use this slight time difference to fire a second shot.
However, they did not expect the other side to react so quickly, using machine gun fire to block their subsequent attacks.
"His strength is indeed impressive; he's incredibly powerful." Luo Chen bent over at the foot of the mound, keeping his back as close to the mound as possible to avoid being hit by bullets from behind.
Luo Chen was not in a hurry and waited quietly for the first round of attacks to continue.
After all, there were only two opponents, and one of them was injured, so their firepower was somewhat reduced in the first round.
"Idiot, how's it going?" The short man's angry face was visible behind the gun as he shouted at the tall man.
"Brother, I'm fine, I can still do it. You're a tough guy, this kid has some skills." The tall man hid behind the wrecked car, tore off a strip of cloth from his inner lining, and used it to bandage his wound.
As the two strongest members of the Poison Tongue Mercenary Group, they have naturally experienced many missions and injuries are commonplace, so they naturally have simple ways to deal with these situations.
"You take over." The shorter man's fingers didn't stop as he quickly spoke to the taller man, then he carefully moved over.
The tall man nodded and said softly, "Understood."
He raised the machine gun in his hand, and the moment the shorter man approached, the muzzle quickly extended and the trigger was pulled.
At that moment, the shorter man stopped what he was doing with his fingers and quickly came to the back of the car.
The two completed their collaboration in a very short time without any interruption.
Clearly, this kind of cooperation has become ingrained in both of them.
"WTF?" According to Luo Chen's plan, the other side should have run out of bullets in their machine gun by now, and even if another person appeared, it would still take some time.
In that one or two seconds, Luo Chen could use the time to quickly move to another location.
but……
To Luo Chen's surprise, the two opponents were so well-coordinated that he had no time to react.
At that moment, if he had moved his body even slightly off the mound of earth, he would likely have been shot.
Even a master would be hit by such a dense barrage of bullets.
Luo Chen didn't want to take that risk; the price would be too high.
It's not worth trying, but Luo Chen isn't without other options.
Luo Chen slowly shrank his body, then pointed the gun in his hand in another direction.
"Idiot, it should be around your 1 o'clock position. Be careful, I'm coming from the left." The shorter man quickly said to the taller man after changing his magazine.
Then he slowly moved his body to the left.
He was quite certain that the other person was alone; if there were others, it would happen at the moment of meeting.
The other party is unlikely to give me that kind of opportunity.
At least, after the first shot hits the idiot, the other person won't allow themselves to form a suppressive firepower.
The tall man nodded, then carefully moved his body little by little, walking towards Luo Chen's direction.
Faced with such a dense barrage of bullets, Luo Chen swallowed hard and pointed his gun at a car.
Just now, he took the time to break a hole in the gasoline inside.
So, let's enjoy the magnificent fireworks!
Bang!
The moment the trigger was pulled, the bullet shot out instantly, making a whooshing sound as it cut through the air.
He came down to the bottom of the car, down to the gasoline, and formed a beautiful union with the gasoline.
With a ripping sound.
"Idiot, get out of the way, quick!"
The short man reacted quickly and noticed Luo Chen's movements; among grandmasters, their physical senses are naturally more acute.
So at that moment, he knew the purpose of the bullet.
The fool's eyes widened in shock. In the blink of an eye, a dazzling display of fireworks appeared beneath the five or six-meter-long car.
Then, with a loud bang.
The explosion sounded like thunder, echoing through the night sky.
The car spun once in mid-air before crashing to the ground.
Instantly, an unpleasant smell filled the air.
"My ears are about to go deaf." Luo Chen shook his head, then picked at his ears.
Fortunately, the moment Luo Chen fired the shot, he instantly moved his body and dodged in another direction.
Otherwise, given his distance, he might actually have been affected by the blast wave.
"Pfft." The short man fell to the ground, covered in yellow dust. He spat out the sand in his mouth, and suddenly realized what was happening. He looked in the direction of the tall man.
The tall man was lying motionless on the ground.
"Idiot, idiot, how is it?" the short man called out anxiously, completely forgetting about Luo Chen at this moment.
"Hmph, it should be gone by now." Luo Chen heard the voice and a joyful smile appeared on his face.
Being so close, it's impossible for nothing to happen.
However, without hesitation, he picked up his gun and walked towards the shorter man.
He won't give the enemy any time to prepare.
Just as Luo Chen moved over, he was about to approach the short man.
Suddenly, Luo Chen was startled, for he heard a tremendous roar.
Luo Chen looked over in surprise to see that the tall man who should have been killed by the explosion had actually gotten up.
"Damn it, is there no science left?" Luo Chen cursed inwardly. Wasn't this guy cheating?
[System, this isn't fair...]
That's what he was thinking, but Luo Chen's gun was already pointed at the tall man.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger.
Bang bang bang!
A bullet grazed his cheek in an instant.
Luo Chen quickly dodged and rolled on the ground.
A burst of bullets followed immediately.
"Kid, are you surprised that you're still alive? Hahahaha, I'll kill you!" The short man appeared from the other side, roaring as he pulled the trigger on Luo Chen.
In an instant, Luo Chen found himself caught in a pincer attack.
Indeed, Luo Chen really couldn't understand why that tall guy hadn't been killed in the explosion, or even injured.
Is his body really that amazing?
