They lured people in, then detonated the explosives, wiping out everyone in one fell swoop.

This gave He Ao the opportunity to save the little girl.

In fact, He Ao had considered the situation of explosives before opening the door. After passing through the previous three levels of obstacles, He Ao had realized that this was a trap that was progressively more difficult to escape.

The other party is cautious yet greedy.

The purpose of setting up traps from weakest to strongest is to ensure that weaker traps eliminate weaker players, thus preventing the stronger traps from being wasted.

The other party is very greedy and wants to make the most of all resources.

Therefore, He Ao grasped the other party's mentality and guessed that even if there were powerful traps in the dance hall, they would first put people in and then release them to achieve maximum damage.

Of course, before opening the door, He Ao was unsure whether there were any traps inside.

So He Ao first made holes in the deck to give Ye Feng and Underpants Superman room to escape, so that they could escape immediately if they found a similar trap.

To avoid triggering devices on the door, He Ao simply cut the door open.

This did indeed buy He Ao a second.

There was a mechanical trigger on the door. Because He Ao avoided this device, the bombs activated some kind of backup trigger mechanism, which should be a combination of infrared and light sensing. It would detect light at the door and that someone was coming in, and then it would trigger.

However, this trigger determination is not as direct as that of mechanical devices, so there is a brief delay.

This greatly increased Ye Feng and Underpants Superman's chances of survival.

He Ao saved the little girl by taking advantage of the delayed explosion set up by the other party's 'greed'.

In essence, this trap was designed to lure out the research institute's elite personnel, then devour them, thereby weakening the institute's power.

He Ao sat on the speedboat and shared his deductions with Underpants Superman and Ye Feng.

Meanwhile, the commentator chatted with the little girl, and the little girl's emotions gradually stabilized.

"Could they attack our ship?"

After listening to He Ao's analysis, Underpants Superman pondered for a moment and asked softly.

After all, they were already considered some of the stronger individuals on the research institute's cruise ship. If all of them were sent out, the research institute's combat strength on the cruise ship would be weakened.

It looks like a diversionary tactic.

“No,” He Ao shook his head, pointing to the radio communicators Yang De had given them before they set off. Yang De had provided each person with a set of communication equipment before departure.

"Commander Yang is very clever. The two cruise ships are very close together. If any problems arise, he will contact us immediately. The other side won't be able to deal with Commander Yang in a short time. By the time we get back, their efforts will have been in vain. However,"

He changed the subject, looking towards the cruise ship at the research institute. In the pitch-black night, several roaring helicopters were slowly approaching. "It's not necessarily the case now."

The other party is very smart and confident.

From the opponent's perspective, once the trap explodes, they will believe that their trap has worked and that the research institute's elite have been eliminated. Even if they haven't been eliminated, they will be injured and incapacitated.

With the research institute's cruise ship now 'empty' after losing its elite troops, this is the perfect opportunity for the enemy to launch a surprise attack.

Indeed, that's true. If it weren't for He Ao, Underpants Superman and Ye Feng would most likely have died here.

But since all three of them survived unharmed.

This is the perfect time to go back and launch a surprise attack.

The dazzling light illuminated half of the night sky.

The commentator looked up at the missile with a long tail in the sky. "Is that a signal flare?"

“Yes,” Ye Feng nodded, “that was the signal to call us back.”

The group left in a hurry and didn't have much time to talk, but Ye Feng was a member of the overseas department and he knew all kinds of signals by heart.

As he spoke, Ye Feng pulled a signal flare from his waist and looked at He Ao, "Brother Yang is probably checking if we're safe. Should we reply?"

"Need not."

He shook his head. He turned on his radio, but all he heard was static. Radio communications in the area were being jammed.

Then he looked at the strategist who was steering the boat and said, "Don't take the route we just came from. Go around it. Although the other side is confident, they will probably still have people searching the area to block us."

-

The howling wind whipped Yang De's hair as he looked up at the enormous helicopter in the sky.

This time is different from the one this morning. This time, the enemy will definitely send out their strongest forces in order to achieve victory in one battle.

He had also heard the loud explosion of the ship. He wanted to contact the reconnaissance team, but at that moment, all of the ship's radio communications were jammed, and even satellite communications were being interfered with.

The other side is determined to devour this ship here.

He could only launch a signal flare into the sky.

Although the reconnaissance team had not received training in signal flares, Ye Feng knew this, which was why he arranged for Ye Feng to join the team.

Under normal circumstances, a reconnaissance team would have someone on guard duty outside the ship.

The reconnaissance team members weren't stupid. When the ship's guards saw the signal flare, even if they didn't know what it meant, they would contact Ye Feng, who did know the signal flare's meaning.

However, Yang De did not receive a response from the other party.

Even if Ye Feng were dead, and no one told the team members the significance of the signal flare, the reconnaissance team would inevitably come up with some obvious response to show that they were still alive, relying on their intelligence.

For example, they could cut open the fuel tanks of the pirates' yachts and create fires at sea.

Currently, Yang De has not received any response.

There are two possibilities.

One worst-case scenario is that the entire reconnaissance team has been wiped out and is now in a state of permanent silence.

The second scenario is that the entire reconnaissance team survives, but discovers the attacking pirate force, which is now quietly circling back, preparing to launch a surprise attack from both inside and outside.

Yang De leaned more towards the second possibility. His warrior's intuition told him that the 'mercenaries' were smart and wouldn't die so easily in such a trap.

He originally intended to send a speedboat to the rescue immediately after the explosion, but before he could give the order, the enemy's attack began.

The sky, which was originally covered by stars, was now completely covered by dark clouds, and sea breezes began to sweep across the sea, causing the huge cruise ships to sway like duckweed.

A dozen or so small boats surrounded the ship, each attaching a rope to the gunwale.

The ordinary crew members were immediately evacuated to the ship's interior. Meanwhile, the superhumans on board were cutting the hooks dangling from the ship's side one by one and picking up the spoils they had seized that day.

The submachine gunners exchanged fire with the pirates below.

Liu Nan was squatting behind the railing on the top deck of the cruise ship.

This place offers the best view.

She tied herself to the railing with a rope, making a slipknot to prevent her body from shifting due to the rocking of the boat.

The sea breeze ruffled the strands of hair in her ponytail.

She held a very simple automatic rifle, but every shot took the life of a pirate trying to climb up.

Her movements became more and more skillful.

These pirates were far more powerful than the morning's ragtag men; death did not frighten them, but rather fueled their madness.

This doesn't even look like a pirate; it looks like a real wild beast.

Banned drugs...

Unlike Liu Nan, who was puzzled, Yang De was quite clear about what had happened to these pirates.

Since ancient times, using banned drugs to stimulate the ferocity of soldiers has been a common tactic.

However, with the progress of civilization, this behavior has been gradually prohibited.

However, this behavior continued among the indiscriminate and frenzied pirates of Alano, and the pirates themselves even became accustomed to it, using it as a 'magic bullet' for charging into battle.

Pirates who took illegal drugs were among the most brutal and insane.

This proves that the leader of this pirate crew did not want the people on the cruise ship to leave alive.

However, Yang De did not spend his energy on these pirates; his attention was entirely focused on the helicopters flying overhead.

There seemed to be some powerful entity inside the helicopter, confronting Yang De.

This standoff lasted only a very short time.

A figure running from the other end of the deck broke the standoff.

"Brother Yang, rocket launcher."

The figure placed an ammunition box and a heavy rocket launcher tube next to Yang De.

We actually still have some weapons left over from the weapons prepared for the researchers who participated in the ruins. For example, we still have two sets of rocket launchers left.

"Thank you."

As Yang De thanked him softly, he kicked open the lid of the ammunition box, revealing the neatly stacked ammunition inside.

With one hand carrying the cannon barrel and the other grabbing a shell, he turned around, aimed the cannon at the helicopter in the sky, loaded the shell, and pulled the trigger instantly.

The enemy is so close, it would be a waste not to fire a rocket launcher at them.

The helicopter pilot panicked for a moment and immediately pulled the helicopter to the side.

At the same time, two figures leaped out of the helicopter and landed on the deck.

The dazzling tail flames crashed into the helicopter in the sky, exploding into a brilliant firework.

Yang De looked at the two people who had landed on the deck.

One of the men was dressed in a neat jacket and gray vest, with his hair slicked back, giving him a refined and scholarly air. The other man wore glasses, a white long robe, and had messy, tousled hair, making him look like a thin doctor.

The two jumped off the helicopter in a panic, looking rather disheveled.

"Hu Wen?"

Yang De looked at the man with the slicked-back hair and raised an eyebrow.
