Life Dungeon Game

boom--

With the sound of bullets shattering flesh, a figure fell from the edge of the shopping mall's rooftop.

But He Ao

He didn't look at the damage he had caused, but immediately turned around, slammed on the gas, turned the steering wheel, and sped off along the broken road.

"It's Jess! Kill him! Don't let him get away!"

Dozens of fully armed mercenaries wearing exoskeletons emerged instantly from the surrounding darkness.

They rushed onto the parked vehicle, started the engine, and followed He's SUV.

However, this time difference allowed He Ao to break out of their encirclement and rush into the night.

These vehicles could only fire at He's SUV while closely following behind it.

The men who were originally under Hai Xi's command stared in astonishment at this scene, not knowing what had just happened. After a while, they gathered around and looked at Ruo En, who had a large hole in his chest.

At this moment, Ruo En's eyes were wide open, his hands still gripping forward, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He seemed unable to understand why the other party wanted to kill him until the very last moment.

-

He Ao crouched down, dodging a burst of bullets. He turned his head and glanced behind him. More than a dozen motorcycles and off-road vehicles were closely following him, almost blocking the entire dilapidated street.

The sharp sound of gunfire became the only music in the silent night.

These are elite mercenaries. Compared to them, most of the gangs in the West District are just kids playing house with toy guns.

Hashi always understood the rules of the game in Wetland. The so-called middlemen and gangs were nothing more than dogs of the conglomerate. The conglomerate didn't care about the dogs' lives or deaths because someone would always take their place.

But it's clear that Ruon didn't understand this.

To the Wyrmmey Medical Foundation and these mercenaries, Ruon's life was worth no more than a stray dog ​​on the roadside.

From the moment Ruon asked Heo to call Haixi, Heo knew that Ruon was trying to stall him. This was certainly not Ruon's own decision, which could only prove that the person behind Ruon had already recognized Heo.

These mercenaries are here to capture Haysey, but besides Haysey, they have another objective: to kill Jess.

As Ao had expected, his target's level was higher than Haixi's, and just as he guessed, the mercenaries who had set up the trap here were the same mercenaries who were originally tasked with killing him.

In fact, when these mercenaries instructed Ruon to have Heo contact Hayes to prove himself, Heo already knew his guess was right.

If these people's target is Haixi, they won't try to get Heo to prove himself. They won't care whether what Heo says is true or not. They will only try to get Heo to reveal Haixi's location or lure Haixi here.

Making He Ao prove himself wouldn't achieve the goal of capturing Hai Xi, but it was a reasonable excuse to delay He Ao.

From the moment He realized this, he knew that the other party's target was no longer Hai Xi, but himself; the other party had recognized him.

The fact that the other side didn't immediately run out was most likely to lower He Ao's guard, giving an opportunity to a sniper capable of a one-shot kill. Delaying He Ao also gave that sniper a chance.

Create the time to aim.

Therefore, He Ao leaned back as much as possible to avoid being targeted by the sniper, and used the bent rearview mirror to find the sniper's position.

In this process, Ruo En had already been abandoned.

The mercenary commanders were trying to get Ruan to distract Heo and lower his guard, so that Ruan could become human cover for the sniper, who could then fire directly through his body and then through Heo's head once he was ready.

However, He Ao eventually located the sniper's position through the rearview mirror and found that the sniper had already taken aim.

Actually, he wasn't sure if the sniper would shoot Ruon, but for safety reasons, he dodged the shot.

His dodge proved to be the right move; had he acted a little later, his D-rank body would have been pierced through, and he would have been seriously injured even if he hadn't died.

The other party was far more ruthless than He Ao had imagined. Even when killing a dog, they wouldn't normally do it so decisively and carelessly.

The dilapidated off-road vehicle emitted a sharp roar. He Ao had Eve overclock the vehicle again, and it was clear that it had already reached its limit.

He looked back at the vehicles that were closing in behind him. Behind these vehicles, the shopping mall building was getting further and further away.

He turned around, took a deep breath, and suddenly turned right, drifting onto a small, unlit road on the right, and continued speeding forward.

The turn caused him to lose some speed, allowing the motorcycle in front to catch up. The motorcyclist straightened up and suddenly swung out a grappling hook with a metal wire attached, which got tangled in the SUV's pillar.

Then he grabbed the other end of the metal wire, leaped onto the SUV, and took out a laser grenade from his body, ready to throw it.

He Ao immediately turned around and fired a shot at the mercenary.

The bullet pierced through the gaps in the exoskeleton armor, went through the mercenary's skull, and sent him flying backward, crashing into another mercenary on a motorcycle behind him.

The laser grenade landed on the ground, exploding in a dazzling light, and several motorcycles nearby were simultaneously detonated, blooming into brilliant fireworks under the night sky.

Just as He Ao breathed a sigh of relief, he saw a man who looked like an officer in the mercenary convoy behind him carrying the barrel of a huge individual rocket launcher and aiming it at the off-road vehicle.

The man stared at He Ao, grinned maliciously, and pulled the trigger.

The two sides were actually very close, and they got even closer after the turn.

At such close range, a shell was fired and landed on the SUV that was chasing after Heo.

Without hesitation, He Ao kicked open the door of the SUV and jumped onto the side of the street.

boom--

The rocket hit the SUV, exploding into a dazzling flame in the dark night. He Ao's body, which had jumped out, was caught up by the surging fire wave, thrown away, and landed in front of an abandoned building.

He glanced back at the mercenaries' vehicles following closely behind, then rushed into the small building without hesitation.

Nourishes—

The off-road vehicles and motorcycles parked in front of the building, surrounding it completely.

The officer who had just been carrying the rocket launcher jumped off the vehicle. He threw the rocket launcher aside, where it was caught by the mercenary following behind him. Then the officer looked up at the small building in front of him.

This is a seven-story building. It seems that the building was abandoned before it was even finished. The entire building is just a simple skeleton, blending into the dark night, like a nightmare with its mouth wide open, ready to devour everything at any moment.

"team leader!"

A short, thin man approached. More and more vehicles were stopping in front of the building. The short man glanced at the officer and asked, "Is that really Jess? How did he end up with the target of this mission?"

"It's definitely him. I didn't expect this unexpected bonus. We waited for this guy all day, but it turns out he's quite the ladies' man and seems to be doing pretty well."

The officer glanced at the small building in front of him and waved his hand. "Contact the corporation and have them send over more gene serum."

“Okay,” the short man nodded, then asked with some doubt, “So, what do we do now?”

"Surround this building and set up all the heavy weapons we brought. This guy is strong; he won't be easy to deal with."

The officer then glanced back at his men and said, "Take out all the gene serum. Groups one through seven, come with me. If you can take this guy down, the reward is ten million!"

The sounds of exoskeletons activating instantly filled the air.

And the mercenaries' excited yet suppressed response, "Kill!"

One by one, the glowing syringes were taken out under the silent night sky.

Chapter 547 The Footsteps of Fear (Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Nourishes—

The black military boots made a soft, lingering sound as they stepped on the soft, fine dust.

The mercenary, wearing an exoskeleton armor and carrying a Gauss rifle, slowly climbed the stairs, which had no railings.

They were very careful with every step, vigilantly observing their surroundings.

The overhead searchlights illuminated the decaying buildings under the dark night sky.

The still night seemed to want to devour everything trapped in darkness.

click -

A soft sound came from the depths of darkness.

"Who?!"

The mercenary at the front immediately looked up in the direction from which the sound came from the darkness.

The searchlight above his head shone out and landed on an abandoned metal barrel.

That was a fire pit that the homeless people who used to live here used to gather around to keep warm. There were some rotten pieces of wood scattered around the fire pit. They had passed by there before, kicked some of the wood, and changed its position.

The sound just now seemed to come from the rotten wood breaking weakly after changing position.

"call--"

A sigh of relief came from the darkness.

The three mercenaries formed a triangular formation and continued walking upwards.

They slowly climbed the steps, finally placing their feet on the flat floor.

A bright, full moon hung in the sky, illuminating the hazy night. The soldiers at the forefront looked around and saw the city buildings lit up with dazzling lights, as if they were surrounded by a galaxy of stars.

This is the rooftop of this small building. Since the building was not completed and only a simple frame exists, there are no low walls blocking the rooftop; it is a completely flat area.

Looking into the distance, you can even vaguely see the edge of the rooftop, resembling a cliff, under the night sky.

The three mercenaries each turned on their headlamps and began to carefully search the surroundings.

"Each team reports on the search progress."

At that moment, a calm but powerful voice came from the walkie-talkies on their chests.

"No target found on the first floor."

"No target found on the second floor."

"No target found on the third floor."

······

"No target found on the seventh floor."

The report ended abruptly there. After a brief pause, the booming voice rang out again, "Where's the rooftop?"

"Report," the mercenary at the front pressed a button on his walkie-talkie, looking ahead as he spoke slowly, "the rooftop is being probed..."

He looked up, speaking as he gazed ahead, but he stopped mid-sentence.

His gaze was fixed on the depths of the night. Not far ahead, near the edge of the rooftop, a somewhat lonely figure stood quietly in the moonlight.
