Chapter 284 After waiting for a long time, the friends from Battalion No. 3 clicked.
A faint, almost imperceptible sound of metal components meshing rang out.
"call out--!"
A blinding flare shot into the sky, trailing a pale white plume of flame, and exploded with a loud bang over the camp!
In an instant, a pale light, like a small sun, illuminated the entire area as bright as day!
Gao Kai and his fourteen soldiers were like a group of puppets under a spotlight, completely exposed in the center of the empty camp, with every trace of fear clearly visible on their faces.
The deathly silence was broken.
"Friends from Battalion Three, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
A calm, composed, and even slightly mocking voice echoed throughout the camp via loudspeaker.
The next second.
In an instant, more than a dozen dark gun barrels appeared in the shadows of the watchtowers around the camp, behind the tents, and by the campfire!
Da da da da da—!
The dense barrage of fire, like the scythe of death, instantly covered the area where they were!
Paintballs rained down like a storm, hitting the ground and rocks around them and splattering red "blood flowers".
"Take cover! Take cover now!"
Gao Kai roared hoarsely, scrambling and crawling behind a rock. Bullets grazed his scalp, the resulting air pressure sending shivers down his spine.
The soldiers of the first platoon were in chaos, each searching for cover amidst the hail of bullets. Instantly, several soldiers were covered in red paint.
Gao Kai was pinned behind the rocks by the heavy firepower, unable to even lift his head. He then realized that they were not hunters who had come to trap him like a turtle in a jar.
They were the prey who had walked headlong into the hunter's trap.
Despair overwhelmed him in an instant.
Just then, Su Tang's voice suddenly came through his earphones.
"Gao Kai, don't panic."
"Report the number and approximate location of the firing positions you see."
Gao Kai's mind went blank.
Don't panic?
How could I not panic!
Who would have thought that the Second Battalion had put on such a grand show for him?
He watched as his dozen or so brothers, who were in the open, were beaten by the enemy in the shadows and were unable to fight back. One by one they were eliminated and they were about to be wiped out. His heart was in his throat.
He was pinned to the rock like a nail, surrounded by deafening gunfire, the desperate groans of his comrades as they were hit by paintballs, and the sparks and fragments of bullets hitting the rocks.
The air was thick with the pungent smell of gunpowder and dirt, and every second felt like an eternity.
Su Tang's voice, like an invisible steel cable, held him back tightly just as he was about to fall into the abyss.
"Location! Gao Kai!" Su Tang's voice rang out again in the earpiece, carrying an undeniable urgency.
Gao Kai bit his tongue hard, and the sharp pain instantly cleared his chaotic thoughts.
He can't fall here!
"ah--!"
Gao Kai let out a beast-like roar and suddenly poked half his head out from behind the rock.
Instantly, at least three jets of fire converged on his location! Bullets whizzed past his scalp, sending sparks flying from the rocks.
In that life-or-death moment of less than a second, he saw it clearly!
"At 11 o'clock, there's a sniper position on the watchtower! At 1 o'clock, on the roof of the tent, there's a sniper! Directly ahead, behind the campfire, there are at least three firing positions!"
He practically yelled the information into his throat microphone, then pulled his head back in a panic, his back slamming heavily against the cold rock, his heart pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of his throat.
He finished reporting.
What's next? Leave it to fate?
