Chapter 539 Thunderous Counterattack
That noon, the tattooed man's voice came through the communicator in the ear of a small group of corpse-covered men once again.
"At the three o'clock position, about three kilometers away, there are four relatively tall trees, and they are temporarily staying there."
"Yes, boss!"
A middle-aged man with a Mediterranean complexion responded respectfully, hung up the communicator, and waved to his companions beside him.
"They're gone. Those humans have escaped to our side. The boss has assigned tasks."
"Haha, in this boring life, this cat-and-mouse game is quite interesting."
"Yes, yes, these humans probably still don't know how we discovered them."
"Stop chatting and beating around the bush, let's get going or the boss will start nagging us again."
...
Several corpse-covered figures gloated as they headed towards their target location.
Han Shuo and his group fled in panic, while the others leisurely treated this mission as a game.
After all, there were only four enemies. Even if they were very skilled in individual combat, could they still pose a threat to their base?
...
Meanwhile, under a large tree in the distance, three men and a child sat together whispering.
A few minutes later, Han Shuo stood up and spoke.
"We'll proceed according to our plan in a moment. This time, if we don't teach them a lesson they won't forget, they'll really think we're easy to bully."
"snort!"
The fat man snorted coldly, took off his coat, grabbed the large axe beside him, and slung it over his shoulder.
"Damn it, I need to vent all the pent-up frustration from last night."
Han Shuo nodded and temporarily hid everyone's backpacks. Seeing that everyone was traveling light, he immediately prepared to start the operation.
"action!"
As soon as the voice fell, the four people scattered and disappeared into the jungle in the blink of an eye.
...
Xiao Zhao nimbly climbed to the top of a large tree, took out his sniper rifle, and kept surveying the surroundings from his high vantage point.
1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes...
Time passed little by little, and the midday sun rose to the top of the sky.
The temperature rose again, and large beads of sweat dripped from Xiao Zhao's forehead. Despite the unbearable heat, he remained patient.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally spotted a horde of corpses appearing to the west through his scope.
The next moment, he placed his finger on the trigger and quickly shouted into the communicator.
"Attention everyone, a horde of zombies controlled by corpse-wearing people has appeared in the west!"
...
On the other side, Han Shuo was also hiding on the branches of a large tree.
Upon hearing Xiao Zhao's reminder, his eyes narrowed, and he was ready to fight at any moment.
"receive!"
"We're all ready here. Xiao Zhao, when you see the perfect opportunity, don't hesitate, fire immediately. We'll wait for your signal."
"Understood, Brother Han!"
The two exchanged a few brief words and then fell silent.
...
As the horde of corpses continued to advance, a few minutes later, Xiao Zhao finally saw several corpse-clad figures appearing behind him through the gaps in the leaves.
Without any hesitation, he pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
A sniper bullet was fired and, in the blink of an eye, struck a man in the distance on the forehead.
One second the man was chatting with his companions, the next second his eyes widened and he completely lost consciousness.
Xiao Zhao's marksmanship is as accurate as ever!
...
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Take cover!"
At the same time, when the gunshots reached the ears of the other corpse-covered men, and when they saw a companion fall beside them, they quickly reacted to the emergency.
They didn't have time to deal with the dead man's body and quickly ducked behind a nearby tree.
"Damn it! Why have these bastards changed their tactics this time? They actually dared to attack us first."
The middle-aged man with the Mediterranean hairline roared angrily and then sounded the charge for the attack.
"Quickly, quickly control the zombie horde and chase after them! We can't let them get away! We won't rest until we kill them and avenge Little Twelve!"
As soon as the voice fell, the surrounding horde of corpses changed from walking to running and surged forward.
...
Actually, this time they didn't need to chase after them; Han Shuo and his group appeared directly in the forest.
The first gunshot from Xiao Zhao's side just now served as a signal.
After the counterattack signal was given, Han Shuo drew his Tang sword and jumped down from the tree branch.
As he entered the horde of corpses, amidst the flashing blades and afterimages, severed limbs and dismembered bodies were everywhere!
The fat man also joined the battle shortly after.
He wielded the large axe in one hand, killing one small zombie with each blow, supporting Han Shuo from behind.
Their other hands were also busy, constantly pulling out bio-grenades from their pockets and throwing them into the horde of zombies.
In just a few moments, piles of corpses fell in the green smoke.
Xiao Zhao, who was on the treetop, changed his position. Seeing that he still couldn't find an angle to snipe the zombie-covered man, he switched to using his rifle to spray bullets at the zombies around the two people in the center of the battlefield from a distance.
As for blonde hair, it hasn't appeared yet.
...
Those reconnaissance nanobots are scattered throughout this forest.
However, they need to prioritize reporting the detected intelligence back to the base, and then the tattooed man will use this intelligence to inform his subordinates.
This process will inevitably be delayed to some extent, and coincidentally, Han Shuo and his group's surprise attack happened during this vacuum period.
This squad of zombie-wearing men controlled tens of thousands of zombies.
Normally, Han Shuo and his group wouldn't be able to kill them all in a short time and would have to temporarily avoid their attacks.
This time, however, they threw out all the few remaining bio-grenades without hesitation, frantically slaughtering the surrounding zombies, just to tear open an opening and get close to the zombie-covered man.
With each explosion of green smoke, nearly half of the horde of zombies perished in a very short time.
Finally, after the number of zombies in front decreased, Han Shuo vaguely saw several corpse-covered figures hiding behind the trees.
The next instant, his face contorted with a bloodthirsty expression, he charged forward alone, wielding a Tang sword.
...
On the other side, the four surviving corpse-wearing men were completely terrified by what they saw.
They truly hadn't expected the enemy to have such fierce firepower.
When they saw Han Shuo tear open a gap and rush over covered in blood like a god of death, their first instinct was to turn and run.
This person is too strong, too terrifying. Once they get close, they will definitely die instantly!
Little did they know, the blond man, who had been absent from the battlefield, had already circled around to the rear of the corpse-wearing man.
When she saw the four corpse-covered men fleeing towards her, she could no longer suppress her anger.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
With her blonde feet firmly planted on the tree branches, she nimbly leaped and moved forward in mid-air.
Just as he was about to land, he delivered a flying kick with his left foot and a swing of his baton with his right, instantly crippling both of them.
Then, she chased after the other two corpse-covered men with a fierce and menacing look.
"Smack!"
She raised her hand and slapped one of them hard, then turned around and delivered a powerful whip kick, slightly reducing the force, sending the last balding middle-aged man flying towards Han Shuo.
She couldn't kill these people directly!
