Chapter Thirty Ambush

  The roar of the plane had faded away, and for a moment the deep forest seemed to have returned to calm. Xu Ming looked up at Kapur, who nodded in understanding, making a gesture that showed nothing out of the ordinary.

  Kapu's position was very concealed, these trees all had vines on them, Kapu chose the one with slightly denser vines around the trunk, matching Kapu's camouflage, almost no one could see that there was someone on the tree.

  Xu Ming calculated the time, the plane had been gone for almost twenty minutes, their people should be appearing soon. From the outside, the mountain was not big, and the waist of the mountain was just this piece of forest, with steep cliffs all around, they would have to enter the forest if they wanted to find food.

  "Squeak" "Squeak"

  The sound was very light, but Xuming still heard it clearly, which was the sound of heavy objects treading on grass leaves.

  Ka Pu apparently also heard it, she quickly made a hand gesture towards Xu Ming, "Nine o'clock direction, two people."

  Xu Ming turned the sniper rifle's scope to the 9 o'clock direction, and indeed there were two people, one tall and one short, with tattered clothes and disheveled hair, each holding an EM-2 assault rifle in their hands.

  They walked very cautiously, occasionally glancing around, and some figures could still be seen vaguely behind them.

  "It turns out they were scouting ahead, looks like it's not entirely every man for himself after all, there's discipline and organization."

  Both of them were within Xu Ming's sniping range and very clear, without any obstacles, making them ideal targets for attack.

  But Xu Ming did not intend to shoot and kill, he wanted to wait until everyone else entered the ambush circle.

  But judging from their cautious appearance, even the surrounding bushes need to be shot twice with a gun, and every step needs to be very careful. If they proceed like this, Xu Ming's position has a certain probability of being exposed.

  Xu Ming enlarged the scope's field of view again, but the people behind still didn't seem to be following, these two were obviously cannon fodder.

  Sometimes it's not the bullet that kills you, but the environment. Xu Ming didn't know where he had heard this sentence before, but at this moment he remembered it.

  The sniper began to observe the surroundings of those two people, he was already considering how to utilize the environment to take them down and lure more people over.

  Suddenly, a branch appeared in the sight, which seemed ordinary, but Xu Ming saw it at a glance. It wasn't a branch, but a venomous snake, a kind of snake that was good at disguise, called a viper.

  Xu Mingchao made a hand gesture, "There are venomous snakes in the three o'clock direction next to them. Can you control the snakes from hurting people?"

  Kapoor nodded in agreement, and following Xu Ming's specific direction, she also saw the venomous snake. She gave Xu Ming an OK gesture. Xu Ming immediately responded, "Have everyone find cover to avoid stray bullets."

  A glimmer of admiration flashed in Kapu's eyes, and she even doubted whether Xu Ming was really as young as he appeared on the surface. She quickly made a hand gesture, and the others received it, each bowing down.

  Silk

  A strange hissing sound, similar to a snake's voice, came out of Kap's mouth, startling the two people. Before they could react, the venomous snake that was crawling on the branch suddenly raised its triangular head and jumped up quickly, biting down on the dwarf's wrist.

  That short man flung his hand with force, letting out a terrifying shriek, and lifted up his wrist. Those two dot-shaped wounds were gushing black blood.

  The tall one also let out a shrill cry, in the direction where the snake was crawling away, and it was a sweep of gunfire. Indeed, no shadow of the snake was seen, before turning his head to look at his companion.

  But found that his companion was curled up on the ground, groaning in pain, with one hand tightly grasping his wrist, and his face had already turned pale.

  "What's going on?"

  An unusually vigilant questioning voice came from behind.

  "Hey, boss! Come quick! Potter's been bitten by a snake!"

  From the depths of the forest came a noisy rustling sound, which Xu Ming judged to be at least twenty people. The old man's voice came over again, seemingly asking as he walked, "Isn't there anything unusual up ahead?"

  "There's no one." The tall guy carelessly glanced around, standing beside his companion, saying: "There isn't even a ghost here. With the destruction being so severe just now, they must have run far away already."

  The owner of the voice soon appeared, a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing the same tattered clothes but looking much more robust, about 1.7 meters tall, with a fiery red buzz cut, and through the tattered clothes, many scars could be clearly seen on his arms.

  The big man looked down at the wound of the short one and said lightly, "It should be the venom of a cobra, this kind of snake venom is very potent, once bitten, it's certain death."

  As they spoke, more than 20 people behind Lao Da appeared one after another, all of whom were rushing over to see the injured person, almost gathering together.

  Xu Ming signaled to Kap and Caruso with a hand gesture, "Prepare for battle, heavy firepower sweep."

  Others poked their heads out like ghosts, gun barrels quietly emerging.

  "In Group A, 5 people in the middle, in Group B, 4 people on the right side, and in Group C, the remaining people on the left side." Xu Ming made another personnel division hand gesture, which Kapu quickly passed on to others.

  All muzzles made slight adjustments, each aiming at their own target.

  "When he was just bitten, cutting off his hand might have saved him." The boss lifted his head and said to the big guy, "It's too late now, take action and send Potter brothers on their way, let them suffer less."

  "Old Big Brother..." The tall one wanted to say something, but was choked back into his throat by Old Big Brother.

  The tall man couldn't bear it and said to Potter: "Brother, take care on your way. We will continue to fight to the end... You may be dead, but history will remember you..."

  "Stop dawdling, hurry up, we still need to find a place to start a fire and cook, it's rare to see meat..." The boss urged impatiently.

  Gao Gezi gritted his teeth, raised the EM-2 assault rifle in his hand and pointed it at Porter's head. He closed his eyes and pulled the trigger.

  Bang!

  The gunshot seems a bit loud.

  The tall man's eyes widened in unbelievable shock, and he fell backwards, with a bloody hole in the center of his brow.

  "Damn it! Sniper! There's an ambush!"

  The old man let out a startled yelp, his voice hoarse from shouting, but before the sound had even faded away, there was another faint noise, and suddenly the old man's head was left with only half of its original size.

  Almost at the same time, irregular gunfire erupted from all around, and before these twenty or so people could even hit the ground, more than ten of them had fallen.

  The remaining seven or eight people fell to the ground, propped up their guns and started firing back. But they had no idea where the shots were coming from and could only blindly sweep around.

  "Hmm"

  Another companion's head blossomed, and the others were so frightened that they buried their heads again.

  A young man in his twenties, with a face full of fear, wanted to crawl towards the grass beside him, when suddenly an arrow appeared out of nowhere and pierced through his throat.

  Xu Ming gave a hand signal of A team, C team charging forward strongly. Harry, Glenn and Jinpu immediately stood up and left the ambush point, rushing towards the remaining few people.

  Xu Ming quickly got up and hid behind a large tree, leaving a big hole in the trunk of the tree. Several bullets whizzed past the nearby grass leaves, without any regularity.

  "A mob is just a mob."

  This gun is obviously firing wildly, but it's still a regular wild shot. Most people like to sweep back and forth in a fan shape when they're extremely tense, which is clearly what this person is doing.

  Xu Ming leaned over to sweep the gap, raised his sniper rifle, and almost didn't aim. The firing point was already etched in Xu Ming's mind.

  Fan-shaped seeking center point, very simple calculation formula.

  "Hmm"

  Without aiming, a head was blown off halfway, and fresh blood and brains splattered on the face of his comrade.

  Companions screamed and suddenly stood up, frantically sweeping around in a burst of gunfire.

  Bang Bang

  Several shots rang out in succession, and the person who stood up was instantly riddled with bullets.

  The gunfire from the enemy position ceased immediately. Kapur gave Karuso a hand signal from the tree, "Three more, seven o'clock thicket."

  Caruso swung the machine gun around, in the direction of Cap's hand signal, and let loose a wild burst. The three men hiding behind the bushes were instantly riddled with bullets and blown out into the open.

  "Put another bullet in each corpse or a knife, quickly sweep the battlefield and withdraw swiftly."
