North of Myitkyina, in the primitive forest of Savage Mountain. The local guide was cutting down the weeds and vines with a machete, leading the exploration team of more than 20 people behind him.
Savage Mountain was located at the border of China, Myanmar, and India. It used to be called Kumen Ridge, which belonged to the Tiger Pit Valley. This was because there were some backward ethnic groups living in the primitive tribal era on the mountain, mainly the Kachin, and a small number of people whose race was difficult to determine. These people lived deep in the mountains and did not interact with modern civilized people. They were called "savages" by the locals. This volcano covered with dense tropical rainforests was also known as the Savage Mountain.
The Savage Mountain was one of the most complex terrains and the most dangerous environments in the world. Within a radius of 500 to 600 kilometers, there were mountains everywhere, overlapping mountains, dense river networks, and primitive forests that covered the sky. Compared to the beautiful and meaningful mountains in the south of China, the Savage Mountain was filled with wild vitality and primitive charm. Of course, if the exploration team was compared to a group of young and charming beauties, then the Savage Mountain was undoubtedly a group of savages who were dancing around the fire. It was not too much to say that they were a demon with green faces and fangs.
However, He Zhendong and the others were not from noble families, and their mission was to conquer the dangerous environment here. He Zhendong had outstanding abilities, but he didn't want his abilities to attract the attention of more heads of state. Therefore, he wouldn't start working unless he was in the central area of the Savage Mountain.
However, there were really many dangers along the way. Not to mention anything else, just the siege of wild beasts was hard to guard against. Many colorful poisonous snakes, cheetahs crawling on trees, giant pythons as thick as buckets, crocodiles lying on the riverbank sunbathing, and the faintly discernible miasma caused a lot of trouble for this team. Although they had brought modern weapons and a large number of medical supplies, and there were no casualties, the beasts were disgusting and annoying.
Another gunshot rang out. The mercenary captain, Li Hu, killed a leopard that was crouching on a tree trunk ten meters in front of him. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and pulled at his clothes that were completely stuck to his body. He looked at He Zhendong and said while exhaling hot air,"Boss! We've also survived through many cruel trials, and have seen all kinds of harsh environments. However, I have to say that this is not a place for ordinary people. No wonder only a few thousand of the Chinese expeditionary army managed to make it out alive after tens of thousands of soldiers entered this place. It truly lived up to its name as a terrifying place.”
"Yeah! It's really ferocious. Let's go! The weather here was strange and ever-changing. It was also the rainy season now. If they encountered heavy rain before they reached their destination, the rivers of all sizes in the Savage Mountain would be in chaos. At that time, the river would flood and the flood would roar. It would really be over.”
He Zhendong ordered as he fanned himself with his hand. What he said was true. The environment of the Savage Mountain was really harsh, but it could also train people's survival ability. As far as he knew, the only rainforest in the world that could compete with the Savage Mountain was the Amazon rainforest.
"Let's go, let's go. Hurry up, lads. If we don't reach our destination today, we won't give you any food.”
Hearing He Zhendong's words, Li Hu let out a long breath of hot air and shouted angrily at the team members behind him.
When it was close to noon, everyone came to a river bank to retrieve supplies, but they found that several large boxes of food had disappeared into thin air, and the remaining food was less than half of the original amount. This was really unexpected. However, when He Zhendong saw it, he ordered his men to take the remaining food and water and continue on their way.
K2 was the largest terrorist group in Asia, and a small border country like Myanmar knew the grudge between K2 and the mainland. These small border countries often did not buy the mainland's rise, so the enemy of the enemy was naturally their friend. Moreover, this was once a battlefield. The national army bled here, but the Burmese people benefited from it. They were naturally willing to be friends with K2.
Otherwise, they would not have airdropped supplies to K2's team. Moreover, there were real primitive natives in this Savage Mountain. Therefore, it was normal for the supplies to be robbed. As the saying goes, wool comes from the sheep. At most, the Burmese government would airdrop another batch. However, if they had a conflict with those primitive savages over these supplies, He Zhendong and the others would not have an easy time in the future.
As they were carrying supplies, the team's journey was even slower. In the evening, He Zhendong and the others finally arrived at their destination. This area was a canyon, and the camp was halfway up the mountain. The valley was filled with towering trees and was airtight. Even if one entered during the day, it would be the same as in the evening.
After the tent was set up, everyone started a fire to prepare dinner. He Zhendong had already ordered people to light up herbs that could repel mosquitoes in the surroundings. If not for that, the dragonfly-sized giant black mosquitoes circling around the campsite would have charged in long ago. But even so, the mosquitoes still refused to leave. It seemed that there was something delicious here that they liked, and they flew around the camp in groups.
"Alright, everyone, go into the tent and sleep!”
Seeing that his team members refused to go to bed after dinner, He Zhendong looked at Li Hu and ordered,"Go and let the team members rest. Tonight, you and your Snake Eyes team will be on night duty. As long as the fire with the insect repellent mosquitoes is not extinguished, the mosquitoes will not be able to enter. However, it was important to note that even at night, the threat of wild beasts was still very high. He told the team members to be careful when they slept and maintain the vigilance that a soldier should have.”
"Yes."
" Yes," Li Hu replied and then hurried the team members into the tent to rest. He Zhendong chose one of them and went into it for his daily cultivation. He was exhausted from today's trip. Therefore, he fell asleep not long after entering the tent.
However, when everyone had breakfast the next morning, some people realized that something was wrong because there were only nineteen people present. When Rénmen quickly ran to the tent of an unnamed member, he was indeed stunned.
The tent was surrounded by a large hole in the ground. As for the team member, his face was still intact. One of his eyes was missing, and the other was still dilated, as if he was very afraid. Only half of his mouth was left. Brandon's mouth was wide open, but he didn't even cry out before he died. Of course, everything was just an illusion. He had really become a Bio-Human.
The blanket on his body had been torn into pieces, and his stomach had been torn open. His insides were all gone, and his body was crawling with large red ants. In his empty stomach, there were some poisonous wasps busy building nests, as if they liked the stomach of the corpse. There were also some large wasps around his stomach, constantly gnawing at the remains of the corpse.
Seeing this scene, even Li Hu could not help but feel his stomach churn. In the end, He Zhendong ordered his team members to pour some gasoline on the corpse and burn it.
With this scene, the remaining team members were much smarter. They no longer dared to sleep alone at night. They often squeezed into a tent in groups of three to five. Although the environment here was harsh, He Zhendong's work progressed surprisingly quickly. The main reason was that the trees in the canyon were too lush. He Zhendong was often alone when he entered the canyon to work. Occasionally, he would bring a few team members in.
The campsite was filled with huge glass jars, which contained pure green life essence. Due to the increased vigilance and caution, although the team members were still attacked by wild beasts sometimes, the casualties were decreasing.
Just like that, in this hellish area, He Zhendong and his team counted the time. On the outside, the silver rat and the Sky Wolf were doing something. It seemed very mysterious.
To Tian Lang, Yin Shu was a very shrewd woman and a very terrifying opponent. He remembered that when the two of them first met, Tian Lang was defeated by this beautiful woman who looked like a vixen within ten moves.
In the future, Tian Lang would do whatever the silver rat said. He would not go overboard with whatever he said or saw. However, Tian Lang could not figure out what they were doing because they were trading with the Burmese government, and the things they were trading were arms.
Both sides had been going back and forth for half a year before the matter was finally settled. The location of the transaction was also clear, but Tian Lang did not report this matter because he instinctively felt that this matter was strange, and it was very likely that the silver rat was testing him. No matter how small the Myanmar government was, it was still a country. They would never abandon a military empire like the United States and look for a terrorist group like K2 to buy weapons.
Therefore, Chen Qingtian, codenamed "Sky Wolf", the former deputy captain of the Thunder Assault Team, had been staying put. This was undoubtedly a gamble for him. However, he was gambling with his life. After all, he was a spy. Once the Chinese army received his information and attacked the trading place, he was not sure if he would suffer any losses, but his identity would be completely exposed. And if he took it, he would undoubtedly die.
In the face of an unpredictable situation, Chen Qingtian's instincts told him that the silver rat was testing his loyalty. Therefore, Chen Qingtian had been holding back. Today was the third day after the transaction.
In a restaurant, Chen Qingtian saw Yin Shu walk in and sit at his table. She first lit a cigarette, took a light puff and blew out a smoke ring, then ordered another meal. As she ate, she looked at Chen Qingtian and said in a clear and charming voice,"The transaction went smoothly. The money has already been transferred to the company's account. However, Boss wants us to go to the central area of the Savage Mountain to pick up one of our scientific research teams there and bring the research results back to the base. You go and prepare later. We'll set off in the afternoon.”
When he heard the words 'Boss' and 'Base,' Chen Qingtian secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The hands on his legs slowly relaxed. He let out a long sigh in his heart, thinking that this woman was indeed testing him.
To Chen Qingtian, he had joined K2 for quite some time now, but the only higher-ups he had contacted was Black Cat. Furthermore, Black Cat did not trust him. That was why he still had no idea where K2's base was. He only knew that there was a man named Number One among the higher-ups of K2. Number One was the one in charge of the entire group. Although Black Cat controlled K2, he was only his spokesperson.
So what if Black Cat was dead? As long as Number One was not eliminated, K2 would always exist. Even if more of their members were killed, K2 would still nurture more terrifying members to dominate Asia and stare at the continent covetously.
"Yes."
Chen Qingtian turned around and left the dining room. The silver rat looked at him from behind, her eyes flashing with a terrifying coldness. A kind of aura that was completely opposite to her enchanting temperament flickered in her dark and bright eyes.
When it was past three in the afternoon, the two of them entered a small civilian airport. There were more than a dozen simple helicopters parked quietly, and one of the propellers was slowly starting.
When a pilot saw that the guests had arrived, he opened the cabin door and let them in. Then, he controlled the helicopter to take off and fly in the direction of Savage Mountain.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon, the sky was filled with multicolored clouds. Chen Qingtian didn't know where the silver rat was taking him. He felt uneasy, as if this road would lead to the netherworld.
