sob ~
Several military jeeps were driving on the burnt grassland. Along the way, there were burnt animal corpses everywhere, and the air was filled with the rancid smell of corpses.
Ake, Batulu, and Brother Lion were sitting in the jeep at the front. However, due to the limited space in the jeep, Brother Lion occupied most of the seats. Batulu was squeezed into the window on the side. It was as if his entire body was compressed. It was difficult for him to even move a finger, let alone move his seat.
"Young man…"
"My name is Batulu, Lieutenant Colonel.”
Although Batulu was pressed down by Brother Lion's huge body, it was not a problem for him to speak.
"Take a look. How do we go next?”Lieutenant Colonel Ake pointed at the fork in the road outside the window. Here, the traces of flames extended to both sides. The invading deep-sea ships might have split up.
"Roar! Roar!" At this moment, Brother Lion, who had been silent all this while, began to speak.
"What is it saying?" Lieutenant Colonel Ake asked.
"Brother Lion said to let it get out of the car. It can determine its location based on the smell.”Batulu translated.
The more Lieutenant Colonel Ake looked, the more curious he became. He asked,""Young man, how are you able to communicate with this lion? Is it a special ability of your tribe?" Then, he quietly waited for Batulu's answer.
Batulu paused for a moment." Yeah, how could I understand what Brother Lion is saying? I only had a rough idea before, but now..." Batulu only asked himself in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. Lieutenant Colonel Ake saw Batulu's " troubled " look and thought it was because he couldn't tell them about the tribe's special ability, so he gave up the idea of asking."Batulu, if you have difficulties, you don't have to say it. I'm just asking casually, don't take it to heart, hahaha!”
"Ah…Oh." Batulu didn't think too much about it. After the car stopped, he opened the door and was about to get out. However, because his body was pressed against the door, Batulu fell out the moment the door opened. He fell directly on the black soil that had been burned by the fire and ate a lot of black soil.
" Ah, pah, pah, pah…"
Batulu cursed in his heart. Why was he so engrossed in thinking about things? Wasn't he looking for trouble?
"Roar! Roar!" Brother Lion quickly jumped out of the car, ignoring Batulu, who was still cleaning up the " filth " in his mouth. Instead, he stuck his nose close to the ground and began to search for the smell left behind by the deep-sea ships.
"Batulu, rinse your mouth with water.”Lieutenant Colonel Ake handed Batulu a military water bottle. Batulu was unable to thank him in his current condition, so he had to rinse his mouth with water before returning the water bottle to Lieutenant Colonel Ake."Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel."
Lieutenant Colonel Ake put the water bottle back on his waist. The jeep behind him also stopped at this time. More than ten soldiers quickly got out of the car and set up a cordon around the area. At the same time, Batulu saw a few girls wearing a set of strange equipment. Each of them had a serious expression on their faces as they vigilantly observed their surroundings.
Even though they were in a desolate area and there were only burnt trees around them, no one dared to relax. The quieter the surroundings were, the higher the possibility of danger.
"It's been ten minutes. Has your friend found any clues about them?”Lieutenant Colonel Ake looked at his watch. The minute hand had already reached the second number, but Brother Lion still had no progress. Even as a high-ranking official, he was a little impatient.
Batulu didn't say anything. He squatted down and pinched a handful of soil with his hand. Then, he sniffed the black soil with his nose and put some soil into his mouth. After tasting it a few times, he spat it out.
" Batulu, what are you..." Lieutenant Colonel Ake found Batulu's behavior a little strange. He had just eaten dirt once, so why did he " eat " dirt again this time? Did he hurt his head?
In fact, Batulu did not know why, but a voice had been ringing in his ears since the beginning." Check the black soil on the ground, check the black soil on the ground, check…"
Batulu, who was annoyed by the voice, could only follow the instructions of the voice. Not to mention, this inspection really made him notice that something was wrong.
Batulu threw the remaining soil back to the ground and dusted it off. He then walked to Lieutenant Colonel Ake and analyzed,""Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, I've roughly taken a look at the soil here. Other than a few very dry ones, the rest have a very obvious salty taste.”
"That's right." Lieutenant Colonel Ake nodded.
"Then it's easy to explain. The soil is very salty, and most of it is wet, which means that they have just left this place not long ago.”Batulu continued to analyze, but then he thought of something and hurriedly looked around.
Logically speaking, the burnt forest should have been broken, but these dead trees were still very strong. Even those who fell were evenly distributed, just like…
"Not good! There's an ambush!"
Batulu shouted. Before Lieutenant Colonel Ake and the others could react, deafening sounds of artillery fire suddenly rang out.
Boom! Boom!
"Enemy attack! Quickly find cover! Find cover!"
A few jeeps were instantly sent flying by the artillery shells. The entire car instantly turned into a huge fireball and smashed towards the soldiers who could not dodge in time.
"Sisters, kill!"
From the burnt forest on both sides, a large number of deep-sea ships suddenly rushed out from the pile of dead wood. Moreover, everyone's equipment was different. It seemed that they were a mixed deep-sea team.
"Counterattack! The guard platoon is in charge of harassing the enemy ships, and the ship ladies are in charge of attacking their main damage targets. Hurry!" Lieutenant Colonel Ake held his head that was grazed by shrapnel. Although he was slightly injured, he still calmly gave the order. The soldiers of the guard platoon and the few ship ladies began to cooperate and launch a counterattack against the enemy ship.
"Focus your fire on the one with the blindfold! That's the flagship of the Deep Sea Assault Team. Kill her!”
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The soldiers of the guard platoon were divided into two groups. The ship lady codenamed 4612 noticed the flagship of the enemy ship on her side at a glance and immediately ordered the heavy patrol ship in the middle of the team to focus fire. This deep sea heavy patrol ship had more powerful firepower than the destroyer and light patrol ship, and its equipment was also more sophisticated. Once she stopped firing, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The platoon of soldiers immediately aimed all their AK-74s at the Deep Sea Patrol. However, the bullets were far from being able to penetrate the armor of the patrol. In addition, there were cannon fodder protecting the patrol. For a time, the two sides entered a stalemate.
Boom!
" Pfft…!!"
A soldier was blasted away by the cannonball. His body broke into two halves in the air and flew all the way to Batulu and Brother Lion.
"Ugh!"
Batulu was an ordinary student in his previous life, and he had never seen such a bloody scene. The soldier's terrified expression before he died, as well as the various organs that flowed out of his body, deeply stimulated Batulu's fragile nerves, and he could not help but vomit.
"Roar!" When Brother Lion saw that his enemy was right in front of him, he roared at them. His four limbs instantly erupted with astonishing speed, shuttling through the firepower of both sides and launching an attack on the Deep Sea team.
"Cough cough cough…Brother Lion…Brother Lion! Come back-"
Boom!
Plop...
"Brother Lion-"
Batulu forgot about the nausea in his stomach. He got up and ran forward. Lieutenant Colonel Ake, who was commanding at the front, hurriedly pulled Batulu back and said angrily,""What are you doing! If you go now, you'll be courting death!"
"Brother Lion…Brother Lion! I want to avenge my friend!"
Batulu desperately tried to break free from Lieutenant Colonel Ake's grip. However, even though he was physically strong, he was still not at the level of a professional soldier like Lieutenant Colonel Ake. He could only…
He looked helplessly at Brother Lion's body, which had already become a piece of meat. Tears kept flowing from his eyes. He roared angrily and wanted to take back Brother Lion's body, but the current situation did not allow him to do so.
"Men, bring this brat to a safe place. Don't let him do anything!”Lieutenant Colonel Ake immediately summoned a soldier, who responded and dragged Batulu out of the danger zone.
"Damned deep-sea ship! I, Batulu, swear that I will kill all of you!! Leave no one alive!"
Pa!
At this moment, everything around them suddenly stopped. All the images were fixed at this moment. The trajectory of the cannonball and the shock wave from the explosion could now be clearly seen with the naked eye.
"This…this is…"
"Young man, looks like you need help?”
