Chapter 8 Escape from Death



She scrambled and crawled across the corpses to the other side of the pond, where she reached an armored vehicle.

The armored vehicle had been parked by the pond. She had found the key on the guard earlier. She opened the door, jumped into the driver's seat, and drove around the pond. Without her having to call out, Nie Han had already helped the blood-covered Nie Zhao up.

People can unleash tremendous energy when they are in a crisis.

Nie Han is only 18 years old and is still a pampered young lady.

Nie Zhao weighed at least 70 kilograms. He couldn't bear it and had already fainted. When a person is unconscious, he becomes incredibly heavy. But Nie Han, with his back bent, actually lifted Nie Zhao up and carried him to the side of the car.

This made things much easier for Chen Rou. She pulled and Nie Han pushed, both of them getting covered in blood, before finally getting Nie Zhao, who was also covered in blood, into the car. Nie Han then jumped into the car as well.

Chen Rou shouted, "Comrade Yuanchao, your mission is over. I'll suppress the fire. Get in the car!"

Song Yuanchao just grabbed two guns, an AK and a submachine gun, but he's about to run out of bullets.

He yelled, "Don't worry about me, girl! I'll buy you some time. Run!"

With him blocking the fire, the armored vehicles couldn't get through, but the reinforcement tanks had already arrived and were loading shells.

Chen Rou's escape by car is a good idea, except it would sacrifice Song Yuanchao.

In Song Yuanchao's view, this is the only solution at present.

However, since Chen Rou dared to rescue the hostages single-handedly, she must have had an even more perfect escape plan.

She didn't know why Song Yuanchao was so righteous and loyal, even willing to sacrifice himself for her, a complete stranger, but now was not the time for idle talk. With a sharp turn of her hand, she switched to her pistol and fired at the gasoline can.

As the bullet was fired, a gasoline drum exploded into the air with a bang.

With another bang, it landed on an armored vehicle and exploded, immediately silencing all the guns on the vehicle.

Song Yuanchao exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, this girl is fucking awesome!"

Chen Rou fired again, and a flying gasoline drum crashed into the signal tower behind her with a bang. The signal tower shook a few times, the rotating searchlight went out, plunging the scene into darkness, and the signal tower also tilted crookedly to one side.

Inside the car, Nie Han had completely forgotten that her uncle was still an unconscious wounded soldier. Seeing Chen Rou shoot a gasoline can one by one, she clapped enthusiastically: "Sister Rou, you're amazing!"

On the rooftop, Song Yuanchao, who was holding a gun, finally understood Chen Rou's strategy and silently gave her a thumbs up.

Chen Rou took a breath and fired again, and another gasoline can flew out and hit the tank's gun barrel.

The tank was firing its shells when the impact deflected them off course and they exploded into the pond, splashing blood-red water in all directions.

A human hand, bitten by an alligator, landed on the car window, and Nie Han screamed in fright.

The situation remains grim, as the tanks are rapidly adjusting their gun barrels in preparation for another shot.

Chen Rou slammed on the gas pedal, crushing the corpses scattered on the ground, and continued firing while dodging.

There were three more gasoline barrels. She shot them one by one, and the three gasoline barrels flew up and exploded violently. The tilted signal tower creaked and groaned, and finally fell down in the middle of the road with a bang, flames shooting up everywhere.

All the mercenaries in the park, including Kito Chang, have arrived at the scene.

But everyone stopped shooting immediately, and all the vehicles retreated, because three exploding gasoline barrels turned the scene into an inferno, and the tilted signal tower blocked the road. They had no choice but to retreat.

Taking advantage of this opening, Chen Rou turned the car onto the main road, which would allow her to escape perfectly.

There was a loud bang on the roof of the car. She raised her gun, and the people outside shouted, "Girl, it's me!"

It was Song Yuanchao who first jumped from the rooftop to the car roof, then climbed in through the window. Looking at the raging fire behind him, he exclaimed, "Girl, did you start the fire under the gasoline drum? Where did you learn that trick? You're awesome!"

It's important to know that shooting a gasoline can directly at a distance won't actually cause it to explode.

However, when there is a source of fire outside it, it may explode, and the larger the fire, the greater the possibility of explosion.

The flames would heat up the gasoline, causing it to expand inside the container, while the bullet hole would introduce an ignition source, leading to an explosion.

However, that's not enough, because the direction of a gasoline can explosion is uncontrollable; it will fly around randomly.

The ability to control it, to make it explode wherever he wanted like a bomb—this was a skill Song Yuanchao had never seen before. The level of skill involved was beyond his ability to describe, so he kept repeating, "Awesome, fucking awesome!"

However, the crisis still exists. There are always forks in the road. If you can't catch up, you have to block them. The vehicles in the park turned around and blocked other directions.

Chen Rou asked Song Yuanchao, "There's a tunnel at the end of this road, right? What's next after the tunnel?"

Song Yuanchao said, "There is a tunnel three kilometers ahead, but Gui Touchang has definitely sent reinforcements. However, as long as we can break through, we can go to Pinelli, which is a seaside town and not Gui Touchang's territory."

He raised his gun and said, "The problem is I'm out of bullets, and Kito Chang is definitely already..."

Nie Han asked cautiously, "Sister Arou, are we going to get riddled with bullets?"

Before Chen Rou could speak, she slammed on the brakes and raised her gun to aim.

A gaunt man stood in the middle of the road, holding an AK horizontally: "Song Yuanchao, please, take me with you!"

Song Yuanchao opened the car door and explained, "His name is Wan Daozai, and he was also a kidnapped laborer."

"Wan Dao Zai" means someone from Wan Dao.

He was quite clever; he got a gun and ran away early on.

He wanted to get in the car, and Chen Rou agreed, but she immediately said, "Comrade Yuanchao, we can't pick up any more people. We're on a straight road, so we'll definitely get there faster than Gui Touchang. Also, I've already blown up the radio tower, so the guards ahead haven't been notified yet. We can catch them off guard, and then..."

She had one more word to say, but before she could say it, Song Yuanchao interrupted, "We still have magazines, three!"

There were three AK magazines under the passenger's feet, and they were the extended version with 45 rounds each.

Song Yuanchao's biggest worry was that he had run out of bullets and was afraid he wouldn't be able to get past the checkpoint at the tunnel entrance.

But there were magazines in the car, and judging from the belt, it was the one Chen Rou always wore, so she had prepared these magazines in advance.

Grabbing a magazine and attaching it to his gun, Song Yuanchao asked, "Girl, who exactly are you?"

This is a battle royale, a life-or-death struggle.

Song Yuanchao had no idea where Chen Rou came from or what she did. She was tall and thin with delicate skin, and looked as quiet as a female college student. But all her actions confused him; her professionalism and strength left him bewildered.

Putting that aside, we soon arrived at the tunnel entrance.

There was a guard post at the tunnel entrance, with lights on, and two armed guards outside the post.

Because the radio was broken, no one informed the guards about the hostage escape. They assumed the visitors were accomplices, so they casually held their guns, with one of them waving a small flag to signal the vehicle to pull over for inspection.

Song Yuanchao aimed from the side, taking them down one by one with each shot. Chen Rou cheered them on, and the armored vehicle sped past, crushing the two guards to the ground.

Entering the tunnel meant finally escaping the range of fire and being temporarily safe.

Nie Han is quite good at considering the big picture.

He hadn't dared to distract Chen Rou until now, and only then did he say, "Sister Rou, my uncle seems to... seems to..."
