Zhou Lang grabbed the handset: "Lynx, report your location and enemy situation!"
"Brother Wolf! The remnants of Battalion Three are ambushing us! Perfect! Saves us the trouble of searching. Don't worry, Brother Wolf, we'll take them down right away..."
Zhou Lang hadn't even had a chance to yell "Back on defense!"
"Bang!"
A crisp gunshot pierced the noisy night sky.
The cigarette that Zhou Lang had in his mouth fell to the ground with a "thud".
His gaze abruptly shifted to the source of the gunfire, where he saw, a hundred meters away, the sniper he had positioned on the high ground of the camp, his helmet suddenly burst open with a blinding blue paint.
A chill ran from Zhou Lang's tailbone straight up to the top of his head.
His most prized sniper was shot in the head right under his nose?
That position is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
And the location where the shot was fired… Zhou Lang's gaze was fixed on a dark grove of trees in the distance. In the darkness, using a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle without a scope, to achieve a precise sniper kill from a hundred meters away?!
This is fucking...something a human being could do?!
A thought that he himself found absurd flashed through his mind.
That sniper...
That sniper with uncanny marksmanship whom he thought was already "dead"...
He is very likely still alive.
Not only did he survive, he also escaped that deadly hillside unscathed.
Those six soldiers from the Third Battalion who were "killed," and the male soldier who claimed to be a sniper... were most likely all bait!
The commander of the No. 3 Battalion's surprise attack used the "death" of six soldiers as a price to gain the trust of his most elite squad, making them completely lower their guard, and then commanded another hidden force to launch a fatal attack from the shadows!
How tricky!
What a ruthless plan!
Zhou Lang felt his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.
For the first time since the start of the exercise, he felt a sense of panic.
He was only now realizing with alarm that he was facing an opponent who was incredibly calm, cautious, and frighteningly intelligent.
Zhou Lang's mind raced. The camp was sparsely populated. If he were the commander, what would he do next?
Who will be his next target?
Is it myself? Or...?
Zhou Lang's gaze suddenly shifted to the brightly lit command tent not far away!
banner!
His ultimate goal was the command flag that represented the honor of the Second Battalion!
"Insidious! ...It's another diversionary tactic."
Zhou Lang cursed, no longer caring about his composure. Like an enraged cheetah, he leaped from the two-meter-high watchtower, rolled on the ground to dissipate the force, and ran wildly toward the command tent.
As he ran, he pulled out his walkie-talkie and roared, "Lynx! Forget about those rats, everyone, back to command post! Now!"
"Brother Wolf, we're stuck!"
"I don't care what method you use, get back here right now!"
Zhou Lang used all his speed to rush to the tent entrance in a few steps, flung open the curtain, and burst inside.
The tent was empty except for a kerosene lamp burning quietly on the table.
In the center of the tent, the bright red flag representing the Second Battalion stood safely on the flagpole.
The moment Zhou Lang saw the flag, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled back into his stomach.
"call……"
He let out a long sigh of relief, leaned against the door frame, and felt his legs go weak.
It seems I was too nervous. Even if the commander of Battalion No. 3 is incredibly capable, he couldn't possibly have touched it so quickly...
Before he could finish the thought, a chilling killing intent pressed against his back without warning or a sound!
Zhou Lang's hair stood on end instantly!
Without a second thought, his fighting instincts, honed over years of life-or-death struggles, kicked in, and he rolled forward, simultaneously using his waist to spin half a circle on the ground, instantly shifting from a defensive to a guarded stance.
When he regained his footing and looked back, his pupils contracted sharply again.
In the shadows of the tent, a slender figure had appeared sometime earlier...
