Ayer observed the camp below the mountain with binoculars, “There are four Gatlings on the tower with three guards. One of them is smoking. Hehe, he’s really looking to get killed. The warehouse in the southeast corner should be where the weapons are stored. There are three more in the barracks. It is less than 300 metres away from the arsenal. The wind is now heading southwest so prepare tear gas and protective masks.”
They unloaded their luggage on the spot and began to equip their equipment for this operation.
Ayer got in touch with the officer of the Angolan Armed Forces in charge of the operation. Their soldiers were already on standby downstream of the canal. They are just waiting for them to get through the checkpoint of the canal.
“Tiger Shark will lead a team to destroy the checkpoint of the government army on the canal and inform the Angolan Armed Forces after success. Falcon will be the vanguard and first to head into the camp to investigate the enemy’s situation. He will see if what the two captives said back then was true. Heibaiji and Pell will get rid of the guards by fire. Kali and the child are in charge of sniping. Dino, Lan Qi, and Coke will go to lay mines on the road leading to the canal outside the barracks. Jushi will follow them and ambush the road. They must not be allowed to reach the canal. The others followed me to attack the enemy camp. Lily will stay at the windward. Wait for the order to release tear gas.”
After assigning the order, Tiger Shark led a group of people to the downstream canal not far away. Ayer and Shan Ming took the rest of the people to the barracks in the darkness. Kali said to Shen Changze: “Follow me.” The two went to find the best sniper position.
The two put silencers on the barrels and began distributing their prey.
“Two on my left and one on your right.”
“Okay.” The child’s bright eyes locked on a soldier on the right through his night vision device.
Kali pulled the trigger and killed a guard standing at the back. When the guard was shot, neither of the two patrolling men in the front noticed.
At the same time, the guard on the right was killed by Shen Changze and when the last man finally came to his senses, before he could open his mouth to shout, his head was already blown off.
After killing the three guards of the tower, Kali and Shen Changze quickly changed positions. They intended to help Shan Ming entering the camp.
Shen Changze saw Shan Ming through his rifle scope. He saw Shan Ming jump up from the ground and cut the throat of a soldier silently. He quickly pulled the trigger and shot a soldier who was about to turn his head towards his father.
The group of Shan Ming and Ayer were as nimble as nighthawks. Within a few strokes, they eliminated all the soldiers guarding the wall. The two teams crawled into the barracks in the dark and reached the arsenal.
Suddenly, gunshots were heard from the side of the canal. Tiger Sharks and his team had started to act!
The sound of gunshots by the canal caught the attention of the people in the barracks. Soldiers began to run out of the barracks in teams of threes and twos. But then a large number of soldiers followed them. They took up their weapons and ran towards the canal. There were about 100 soldiers altogether. Not long after they ran out of the camp, they guessed that the mines that had been planted by Dino and the others were stepped on by the soldiers. Sounds of wailing could be heard everywhere.
Another two teams of soldiers rushed out. This time, it was too late to set up the mines so the sound of heavy machine guns sweeping and rocket launchers roaring were heard.
Ayer threw a grenade into a barracks of the government army, blowing up the soldiers who had just rushed out. He shouted through the radio: “Job, take a team to support Dino and the others. There are too many soldiers there, they can’t bear it. We must not let the government forces get to the canal!”
The mercenaries who stayed in the camp went up with guns and ammunition, catching the remaining soldiers by surprise.
Shen Changze and Kali used sniper rifles to assist the battlefield from a distance. These people knew that there were snipers but they had no time to care about it. Ayer and Shan Ming’s attack had already beaten them to shame.
At this time, Lily, who received the order, began to throw tear gas bombs down from the upper air outlet. The members of the ‘Peregrine Falcon’ were all prepared and put on masks on their faces.
They quickly opened the arsenal and notified the people of the Angolan Armed Forces to get the weapons quickly.
Everything went smoothly. Suddenly, there was a loud buzzing sound from the sky. Shen Changze looked up. In the sky not far away, twinkling light spots were approaching them. It could be seen clearly with the naked eye. It was a Black Hawk helicopter gunship flying towards the camp.
Cold sweat broke out on Kali’s face, “They come to blow up the arsenal so that our team and this group of government soldiers will be doomed together.”
Shen Changze felt his heart tremble. Indeed, the canal could not be blocked and the camp could no longer be defended. Instead of leaving the weapons to the enemy, it would be better to detonate them!
“Then what should we do?”
Kali’s eyes shone sharply in the dark night, “Shoot the copter down.” He took the child and ran down the mountain. The two of them hid at the foot of the mountain. Kali quickly found the incendiary bomb from the equipment box and both of them changed ammunition.
Shen Changze asked while panting, “Can you shoot it down?”
“It has to be low enough. Remember, shoot the fuel tank.”
Ayer’s voice came over the radio, “See the helicopter?”
“I saw it. I am preparing to snipe.”
“Jushi can’t come to support now. I can only rely on you to hit the helicopter. You must not let it cross the line of fire.”
Shen Changze took a deep breath. They are very close to the camp now. If the gunpowder magazine exploded, not only his Baba in the camp, even they themselves will be sent flying by the shock wave. If the helicopter cannot be shot down, half of the ‘Peregrine Falcon’ members are going to die here!
After the helicopter approached, it began to use its equipped Gatling machine gun to carry out blind sniping. Regardless of whether people could be seen or not, a row of bullets swept over surrounding Kali and Shen Changze. There is also a sniper straddling at the door of the cabin of the helicopter, looking for a possible target with a gun.
When the helicopter flew over their heads, Kali gritted his teeth and said, “Kill the opponent’s sniper!” He rushed out of the barrier of leaves above his head and found an open gap. He aimed his gun.
Shen Changze also followed him. Cold sweat broke out in his palms. He aimed at the sniper on the plane. His heart was beating very fast. If he missed… or if Kali missed…the consequences would be unimaginable.
Kali yelled, “Shoot.”
The moment Shen Changze pulled the trigger, sweat dripped into his eyes. He felt his hands tremble slightly and his heart screamed!
The shot still passed through the half-closed cabin door and hit the sniper. Just as the plane was about to turn around, an incendiary bomb pierced its fuel tank and the plane exploded in mid-air. It became the most magnificent fireworks for this battle.
Shan Ming’s cold voice came from the radio, “Good job.”
He didn’t specify who he said it to but the child felt that this sentence was really a compliment for him. His father must be praising him!
The child only felt a sense of heroism rising from his chest and his eyes shone with pride.
Just when he was proud, Kali yelled, “Run!” The child’s nerves collapsed and out of instinct, he jumped up from the ground and ran back. Before taking two steps, there was an explosion. A huge force swept the turf. Soil, shrapnel and stones were blasted towards them. Both of them were thrown four to five metres away. They rolled seven to eight metres before they were able to stabilise their bodies. But they were completely knocked out.
The child regretted it for a while. He was negligent just now when he was overjoyed. The sniper should leave immediately after he revealed his position. He actually forgot this simple rule at a critical moment. Kali was ready to evacuate when the plane shot down but he still foolishly stayed where he was, excited by his father’s compliment. What an idiot!
After the dust flying all over the sky cleared, Kali ran over to check on him. He also looked embarrassed and covered in blood. But because he ran fast, he was not as unlucky as Shen Changze.
Kali cursed: “You little idiot. What are you proud of?!” He put the child on his back, took up the equipment of the two of them, and ran into the woods. He intended to find a hidden place to bandage the child to stop the bleeding.
After running a kilometre away, Kali put Shen Changze down. He took out simple emergency medicine from the equipment and tore off the child’s shirt. He disinfected his wound.
The child was mainly wounded on the back. The wound area was large but it was not deep so the situation was not serious. But the bloody look on him was scary. He gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain which felt like a fire on his back. He whispered, “Kali, don’t tell my Baba.”
“Why not?”
“He will scold me.”
“You deserve to be scolded. What were you doing back there? Huh? Are you stupid?”
The child stopped talking. His back and legs were covered with wounds. The smell of alcohol on the wounds was really worse than death.
After disinfection, Kali sprinkled hemostatic powder on him. He then wrapped it with a bandage, “You stay where you are and protect yourself with a gun. Don’t fall asleep. I’ll go look for Pell if I can even find her .”
Kali ended up giving him antibiotics to keep the wound from becoming infected. He then ran off toward the canal.
The child crawled on the ground and couldn’t turn over. He put his ear close to the ground. If someone approached him, he should be able to hear it.
The wound on his back hurts like hell.
He didn’t want to be laughed at by his father. He had just gotten a compliment from him. Damn it, he should have been careful!
The child thumped the ground angrily. The wound on his back was affected by the movement and the pain almost made him cry.
He remembered that his father said that back then in the United States, he was seriously injured. But he recovered within a few days. He also remembered that his calf was cut by an explosive and his bones were exposed. But when he woke up, there was only a very shallow wound left and now, he couldn’t even find the scar. It was as if nothing had happened.
It seems that, as Captain House said, Dragon Blood people have a strong regenerative ability.
Then why not try to recover quickly now? It hurts him to death.
Maybe… Maybe only by transforming into a Dragon Blood Man can he have that kind of regenerative ability. That’s right, before he transformed, the wound was bleeding. But after transforming, he didn’t feel any physical discomfort at all. It seems that the regenerative ability must be within the dragon blood gene. If he wants the wound to heal quickly, he must activate the dragon blood gene!
The child was lying on the ground, feeling a bit uneasy. It would be fine if he could transform. But what if he was discovered after transforming? What if he passed out later? It was too dangerous for this to happen on the battlefield.
However, the pain from the wound on his back made him want to scream. In this relatively quiet wood, nothing could distract him at all. He was in pain and he really didn’t know what to do.
He didn’t want to wait for Shan Ming to come back to see him like this. He didn’t want Shan Ming to think that he was useless.
The child closed his eyes and thought to himself; let the wound heal. It hurts so much. Transform quickly just until the wound heals. It hurts. It hurts too much.
But no matter how much he wanted to transform in his heart, his body did not respond.
He recalled the dream that he had that day again. There was his naked father in the dream… Although he didn’t dare to admit it, he subconsciously knew that if he continued to think about his father like that, his body would become hot. His blood will also feel like it’s burning. And then, he will slowly, … slowly…
The appearance of Shan Ming’s naked body with his legs wide open occupied Shen Changze’s mind. He despised the man that was lying on top of his father so much that he wanted to strangle him, bite his neck off, and push him away. He wanted the man off of his father and instead, switched to… him being the one…
The child opened his eyes suddenly in fright. He saw that the lines on his skin became strange. His whole body was covered with a faint golden light and the wound on his back suddenly stopped hurting. He knew that his goal was about to be achieved. But a huge wave of guilt crashed into his head.
He couldn’t explain why he wanted to do that kind of thing to his father. It was terrible. What was he thinking? And why would the dragon blood gene in his body be activated as long as he thought about his father’s naked appearance!
This is so abnormal!
The child struggled in his heart and the golden light from his skin gradually faded. After a while, everything returned to calmness again.
He obviously felt that the wound on his back was less painful. Although it hadn’t healed, at least he could bear the pain.
The child didn’t dare to move anymore. He didn’t even dare to think anymore. Why would he fantasise about those evil things? He knew that it was wrong. That kind of thing was supposed to be done by men and women. Not by him and his father…
The child touched his hot face and closed his eyes firmly.
I absolutely can’t let Baba know. Baba will beat me to death if he knows.
