But even though there is open space by the river, what pilot would be foolish enough to let someone land in a rainforest full of trees?

This doesn't make sense at all.

How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?

Then Mulin's identity is simply inexplicable.

"Boss, is it possible that this Mulin is one of Eagle's men, but he's of low rank, or maybe he's not even involved at all, just someone who's casually gathering information around the area?"

Yu Feng remained silent for a moment before speaking again.

Lin Beichen did not immediately respond to Yu Feng's words.

What Yu Feng said actually makes some sense, but in the current situation, it's obviously impossible to verify its truth.

"Let's go."

Finally, one by one, the group set off on their way back to the Mayan hunting lodge.

As soon as I returned to the cottage, I saw the old man and Ma Li busy in the yard.

The two were very skilled as they chopped off branches of a tree and then stuck feathers to the ends of the branches.

Upon seeing this, Lin Beichen subconsciously touched his chin, thinking that the other party must be making a bow and arrow.

Upon seeing Maya and Lin Beichen return, the two quickly put down their work and hurried over to greet them.

"What's going on?"

Ma Li was the first to smile and ask Lin Beichen a question.

It's not hard to see from the interaction between Lin Beichen and Ma Li that Lin Beichen is the leader.

Lin Beichen remained silent, only shaking his head at Ma Li.

Seeing this, Ma Li shrugged and said, "It's basically impossible for you to contact the outside world right now. If you have communication equipment, I can take you to the Rock Base. The signal there is very good, and you should be able to use your communication equipment there."

After listening, Lin Beichen pondered for a moment.

These days, getting your hands on communication equipment is harder than climbing to the sky.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng should be able to recover their normal fighting ability after another three or four days of rest.

However, given Lin Beichen's current condition, if he doesn't want to develop any hidden illnesses, he needs to rest for a period of time, but Lin Beichen and Yu Feng obviously don't have that time.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng are still unsure what action the organization will take after not receiving a reply from them.

"Could you take us there to have a look today?"

Lin Beichen looked at the horizon. The sun was high in the sky, and there was still a long time before it got dark.

"Sure, but we'll have to wait until tonight."

“There are many informants near the rock base. Going there during the day is like directly telling them that I’m here.”

“At night, we sneak out of the woods and can be seen from a distance, but we must keep a distance of more than 300 meters from the various buildings in the base.”

Ma Li said with a serious expression.

Why maintain a distance of more than 300 meters?

Yu Feng frowned.

He simply couldn't believe that an illegal organization's base would be equipped with searchlights or something similar, so why did they have to keep their distance?
“My friend, although the area around the Rock Organization is also a forest, they have buried a lot of landmines around the forest.”

“In this rainforest, once it rains, even holes dug just last week won’t be visible. If you rashly venture into a minefield, it’s hard to guarantee your safety.”

Ma Li shook his head vigorously.

Lin Beichen nodded, then continued, "Then let's go over tonight."

After getting a brief understanding of the situation, Lin Beichen and Yu Feng began helping Ma Li and the others with their work. They worked until they had a simple dinner in the evening, and then, under the cover of darkness, they slowly made their way towards the location of the rock organization.

It wasn't until the bright moon hung high in the sky that the group finally spotted a solitary island in a distant lake.

The isolated island was about five or six hundred square meters in size, covered with wooden houses. The island's edge was surrounded by high walls made of various types of wood, making it look like a mountain stronghold at first glance.

According to Ma Li, there are actually some houses along the lake used for guard duty.

However, those houses were hidden in dense bushes, making them almost impossible to see with the naked eye at night.

Ma Li led Lin Beichen and the others to a hilltop and looked out into the distance. According to Ma Li, the lakeside was a minefield laid out by the rock organization, and Lin Beichen and the others were already on the edge. If they moved any further, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng did not rush forward, but observed the facilities in the lake from a distance.

With the wall blocking his view, Lin Beichen couldn't observe much, except for the occasional shadowy figures moving around on the wall.

From a distance, those people could be seen carrying various weapons on their backs.

However, those weapons were not the AK-type weapons that Lin Beichen had imagined, but rather sniper rifles and rocket launchers for individual combat!

Do you know how many of their men are equipped with rocket launchers?

Looking at the swaying figures, Lin Beichen couldn't help but take a deep breath.

That's a rocket launcher! Even in a lawless place like Myanmar, it's not easy to get your hands on such a weapon.

It's important to understand that while the authorities here have a high tolerance for illegal organizations, they are not without limits.

An organization with so many individual rocket launchers is no small matter. If it really fought against their regular army, it would be hard to say who would win!

"Boss, I used to think that the 'no man's land' policy was a joke, a result of the authorities turning a blind eye. But now that I've seen these things, I understand..."

"It's not that the authorities don't want to get involved; it's that they simply can't. They probably couldn't defeat these people even with 70% of their military strength!"

Yu Feng took a deep breath, his expression a mixture of awe and amusement at the scene.

Lin Beichen ignored Yu Feng, his brows furrowed as he continued to observe.

"Boss..."

"Sh-!"

Just as Yu Feng was about to speak, Lin Beichen quickly made a shushing gesture, interrupting him.

"Da-da-da!"

Just as Yu Feng stopped speaking, a series of footsteps entered their ears.

Immediately afterwards, two burly men carrying submachine guns appeared in their line of sight.

"Rum, what do you think Viper sent us to a place like this for? Are we here to be his lackeys?"

The night was too dark to see the two people clearly, but Lin Beichen could understand that they were speaking fluent English.

“Jack, Viper has been planning this for a while. He intends to take over this base and is currently busy winning people over.”

The burly man named Rum lowered his voice and couldn't help but look around after he finished speaking.

Obviously, these words could only be spoken among themselves. If they reached the ears of that guy called Eagle, Viper and his gang would probably be dead.

"Oh, this is absolutely insane."

Jack couldn't help but rub his head.

That was a well-equipped organization, comparable to an army. The fact that Viper had such a huge appetite made him a little uneasy.

Although he was also a desperate criminal, he did this job only for money. Who would be willing to fight to the death with such forces?
"No, it's not crazy."

"The third-in-command of this organization is now one of ours, the one who used to follow Viper, Scorpion."

Rum's voice carried a hint of amusement. At this moment, Ma Li was so frightened that he lay prone on the ground, too afraid to move.

He couldn't understand English, and in his opinion, the best outcome was simply to avoid being discovered by the two burly men on patrol.

"Rum, I'd like to make a phone call home now. Could you keep an eye on things for me?"

As Jack spoke, he took out his phone from his pocket, turned on the screen, and his blond hair came into view of Lin Beichen and the others.

Lin Beichen's eyes lit up when he saw the other person take out their phone.

This trip was not in vain!

Just when I was feeling sleepy, someone brought me a pillow!
Lin Beichen wasn't the only one with this idea. After seeing the other party take out his phone, Yu Feng nudged Lin Beichen with his elbow, clearly asking Lin Beichen if he wanted to make a move.

Opportunity knocks but once. Lin Beichen gestured to Yu Feng beside him; the gesture was easy to see in the moonlight.

After receiving Yu Feng's affirmative nod, Lin Beichen took a step forward and slowly approached the two of them.

"Splash—splash!"

As soon as the two moved, a commotion came from the side.

The sound wasn't loud; it was probably some kind of creature crawling on the dry, fallen leaves.

Lin Beichen couldn't help but frown, feeling a little uneasy. He pressed down on Yu Feng, who was about to move, and continued to lie on the ground.

"Oh, there's movement in the grass!"

Rum pointed in the direction where Lin Beichen and the others were, while subconsciously reaching for the gun behind him.

Jack waved to Rum, "Don't make a fuss. This area is a rainforest. Judging from the noise, it's probably a snake."

Rum nodded in agreement, but still subconsciously turned his gaze toward the direction where Lin Beichen and the others were.

At the same time, Lin Beichen felt a chill on his shirt and subconsciously glanced behind him.

It was a black snake. Because of its dark color, Lin Beichen didn't know what kind it was, but judging from the feel of it, it was definitely not small!
Lin Beichen couldn't help but swallow hard, and dared not move an inch.

Normally, Lin Beichen would have shouted for extra food and grabbed the snake's head.

But now, with two enemies right in front of him, Lin Beichen dared not make any big fuss.

Although Lin Beichen and Yu Feng brought weapons with them, they wouldn't fare well if they were to engage in a firefight at this distance.

Not to mention that these two people have the communication equipment that Lin Beichen needs, and Lin Beichen is determined to get his hands on it no matter what.

As long as there is communication equipment to contact superiors, everything we've done before will have been worth it!

"Boss."

Yu Feng's faint voice, almost like a mosquito's buzz, reached Lin Beichen's ears.

Yu Feng was standing very close to Lin Beichen, and it was clear that the snake had already crawled onto Yu Feng.

"Calm down, you must stay calm."

Lin Beichen took a deep breath.

Who isn't afraid of snakes? Especially since these things look venomous. Letting them crawl all over you is definitely creepy.

But in situations like this, the more panicked you become, the more chaotic things get.

I just hope this snake was just passing by and left quickly.

"hiss--!"

The sound of a snake flicking its tongue reached Lin Beichen's ears. Lin Beichen glanced sideways at Yu Feng's back; at that moment, the snake had already warily raised its head.

Lin Beichen saw that Yu Feng's entire body was trembling slightly.

Lin Beichen remained silent, silently praying that Yu Feng wouldn't do anything out of line.

Snakes should have heat conduction sensing capabilities, so Lin Beichen and the others lying together might have been mistaken for rocks by the snake.

If the group suddenly moves and the creature feels threatened, it will be in trouble.

Putting aside whether they could snatch the communication device from Jack, even if Jack bit them, given their current situation, it would be practically a death sentence for Lin Beichen and Yu Feng.

Where are we supposed to find serum in this remote, desolate place?
"Jack, the villagers say snake meat is especially delicious. Shall we catch one and stew it up for a while?"

Rum glanced at Jack, who was dialing a number, and guessed that Jack was just bored and that's why he made the suggestion.

"Snake meat? That disgusting stuff, who would eat it?"

Jack's face was full of impatience.

In foreign countries, there are not many places where snake meat is eaten; in their eyes, snakes are an ominous symbol.

Even during a famine, they wouldn't touch such things unless they were truly desperate.

"Oh, dear Jack, didn't you say the same thing when you ate century eggs last time? Come on, my good brother!"

As Rum spoke, he slowly walked toward the direction where Lin Beichen and the others were hiding.

The conversation between the two amused Lin Beichen, who was lying on the ground. It seems that no one can escape the "it's actually good" phenomenon.

Just as he was pondering this, Rum quickened his pace and walked towards Lin Beichen's direction, holding a flashlight in his hand.

Lin Beichen subconsciously clenched his fists, his eyes fixed on the snake with its head raised on Yu Feng's back.

The snake seemed to sense Rum's approaching footsteps and had already turned its head steadily in the direction Rum was coming from.

"Da-da-da!"

As the footsteps drew closer, the muscles in Lin Beichen's arms tensed instantly.

"Hmm, the eyes..."

Before Rum could finish speaking, Lin Beichen reacted quickly, grabbing the cobra's head and throwing it hard at Rum.

At the same time, Yu Feng jumped up from the ground in terror and ran wildly toward Jack, who was not far away.

"snake……"

Before Rum could even shout, Lin Beichen had already rushed in front of him.

Lin Beichen used his foot to firmly stomp on the cobra that had bitten Rum's waist, while at the same time he grabbed Rum's neck with both hands and twisted it forcefully.

"Crack——!"

With a sharp crack of breaking bones, Rum's eyes widened, and he died, never recovering from the shock and confusion until his death.

How could a person be hiding behind a snake!
Yu Feng was quick as well; just as Lin Beichen dealt with Rum, he rushed to Jack's side.

Jack was dialing with his back to Lin Beichen and the others, but by the time he realized what was happening, it was too late.

Yu Feng swiftly raised his hand and brought the dagger down, cleanly slicing it across his neck, while simultaneously tackling him to the ground.

Jack tried to make a sound, but Yu Feng pressed him firmly to the ground covered with fallen leaves and mud. For a moment, only his "woofing" sounds reached their ears.

After glancing at Yu Feng, Lin Beichen quickly drew the dagger from his leg and stabbed the head of the cobra that was still being stepped on by Rum's waist through the neck.

After doing all this, Lin Beichen did not pick up the dagger, but instead picked up the flashlight that Rum had dropped on the ground and continued to shine it on the rainforest in the distance.

Seeing this, Yu Feng followed suit.

The two of them did this, of course, because they didn't want the people on the island to notice anything unusual.

Anyway, it's so far away and pitch black that they can't see anything. As long as the light keeps moving, they shouldn't suspect anything. (End of Chapter)
