Chapter 347 They're in danger! Upon receiving the urgent intelligence from Boss Ya, Xia Zhining and Ji Shuyun instantly went on high alert.
The two exchanged a glance. Without a word, their unspoken understanding led them to hold their breath, lower their bodies, quickly check their weapons, and enter a state of combat readiness.
[Follow me! Let's move aside for now!]
The Boss Crow made a nimble turn in the air and flew in the opposite direction from the smugglers' route.
Ji Shuyun immediately protected Xia Zhining, and with the cover of the dense vines and giant trees, they followed closely behind silently.
Hold your breath and try not to make any noise that might alert the enemy.
The other birds in the forest, who had been "given a heads-up" by the crow boss, spontaneously took on the task of continuous surveillance, forming an invisible information network that continuously fed back the movements of that small group of outlaws.
Guided by Boss Ya, the brother and sister quickly circled around to a depression naturally formed by several huge weathered rocks and intertwined aerial roots.
With dense tree canopies overhead, hanging vines forming a natural curtain in front, solid rock walls behind, and the path they came from visible from the sides, it was an ideal temporary hiding and observation point!
Having animals as guides in this dangerous rainforest is absolutely fantastic!
As soon as Xia Zhining and her brother had hidden themselves, Ji Shuyun signaled Xia Zhining to remain absolutely silent.
He pressed himself against the rock wall, his sharp eyes scanning the outside world warily through the gaps in the vines.
Not long after, Boss Crow glided down silently again and landed on Xia Zhining's shoulder.
[Xiaxia, good news! That group has changed direction and headed west. They don't pose a threat to us for now.]
Boss Ya's tone was not as nonchalant as usual, but unusually serious.
Xia Zhining felt a chill in her heart: "Is there some other bad news?"
Boss Crow nodded and quickly repeated the information he had gathered from the birds:
[There were five men in the group, all armed with rifles and pistols, and they looked very fierce. They told us to be careful with the goods and sneak them into the Dragon Kingdom.]
Xia Zhining's face darkened; these people were very likely smuggling drugs.
Boss Crow's tone grew even more anxious: [The most crucial point is that their conversation revealed they'd discovered the whereabouts of three Chinese anti-drug police officers, saying these three were affecting their delivery.]
It said nervously, "[They've contacted their boss, saying that his armed men just finished something else nearby and can be transferred over... to completely eliminate those three narcotics officers!]"
[Let them never return!]
Three anti-drug police officers from China have been targeted by these bad guys!
Xia Zhining's heart sank, and she translated the beast language information for Ji Shuyun.
Ji Shuyun's eyes suddenly became incredibly sharp.
Their main mission was to bring the undercover agent back to China.
But at this moment, facing three comrades from the Dragon Kingdom who were in danger and about to be surrounded by armed drug traffickers, there was no way to sit idly by.
The dampness of the rainforest seemed to instantly transform into a bone-chilling cold.
The news brought by Boss Crow instantly brought the atmosphere at the hideout to a freezing point.
Ji Shuyun frowned deeply: "The private armed forces in this area are likely regular drug protection teams kept by major drug lords. They are much better equipped and trained more brutally than ordinary smugglers."
“They received orders to come and encircle and suppress them, and the team consisted of at least ten people, or possibly more.”
"It will be equipped with automatic weapons, and most likely heavy firepower such as rocket launchers."
Although Xia Zhining was mentally prepared to face the enemy's wickedness, he did not expect that the other party would be even more ruthless than he had imagined!
"If these three anti-drug police officers fall into their hands... they will have almost no chance of survival."
