Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 482 A tigress suddenly appeared

Having a natural advantage from above, Yan Poyue, who had run to the side of the stairs, easily spotted the enemy who was sneaking up the stairs.

Yan Poyue showed no mercy and immediately leaned out and fired downwards.

"Da da da da".

A burst of bullets went off, and red smoke rose up.

The player at the front was hit and eliminated while emitting red smoke. The player right behind him immediately launched a counterattack.

"Da da da..."

Gunfire came from below, and the firepower was extremely intense.

Yan Poyue didn't know how many people were below, and since blank rounds couldn't be fired without seeing the trajectory, rashly peeking out to fire could easily lead to an accident.

Unable to continue firing downwards, he pulled out a grenade and threw it down.

"Bang!"

A soft explosion was heard, and the gunfire below ceased.

The stairwell was quite small, and the red smoke from the previous contestant, Tao Te, had already enveloped it, making it impossible to tell if any new red smoke was coming out.

In addition, the red smoke completely covered the stairwell, making it impossible to see what was happening below.

Yan Poyue dared not risk going down, so he could only wait up there until the red smoke dissipated before figuring out how to go down and investigate.

But he was never given that chance; a sudden thud came from the next room.

Yan Poyue and the other two heard it and realized that someone had probably already climbed up through the window, rendering the hand-made staircase useless.

The three could only meet in the corridor and cautiously make their way to the next room.

"Thump, boom~"

Before I even reached the door, a black ball flew out.

The three men's expressions changed drastically upon seeing the grenade. If it had exploded in the corridor, all three of them would have been eliminated on the spot.

Fortunately, the person who threw the grenade had no practical experience and did not have the grenade-holding delay commonly used in actual combat.

There are more than three seconds between when a grenade is thrown, lands, and explodes. If you react even slightly quickly, you have a chance to deal with it.

Yan Poyue, who was walking in front, reacted quickly, taking a step forward and flicking his toes.

swoosh~

The grenade flew back into the room.

With a loud bang, the contestant who was throwing a grenade inside the room missed a great opportunity and was eliminated by the grenade he had thrown in the exercise.

It was this suddenly appearing player that made Team 02 realize a serious problem.

That means there was more than one group that came!

"Let's go!!"

With so many groups surrounding them, Zhang Tianyang knew that staying would mean certain death, and every minute that passed meant greater danger, so he quickly ordered his men to flee.

If you can't go down the middle stairs, then go to the rightmost stairs in the dormitory building.

Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie followed closely behind.

The three had run forward for less than two seconds when gunshots suddenly rang out behind them.

Fortunately, the three of them had intentionally used the clutter in the corridor as cover during their departure, and they were also lucky.

The bullets that were fired at them missed, but they still gave them a fright.

The unspoken understanding between them was perfectly demonstrated at this moment. Zhang Tianyang didn't even need to give an order; the three of them tacitly carried out a tactical retreat.

Yun Jie, who was at the very back, hid in the room on the left side of the corridor, only peeking out to fire suppressive shots behind him.

The other two took the opportunity to retreat from the right to the back, each hiding in a room on the left, forming a formation where the three of them each hid in a room on the left.

There are rows of dormitories on both sides of the dormitory corridor, with dozens of rooms in each row, enough to accommodate a few more people.

Yan Poyue, positioned behind Xiao Yunjie, set up his position and gun, then shouted the order to retreat.

Upon receiving the command, Xiao Yunjie stopped firing, rushed from the room to the right side of the corridor, and then hid in the room behind Zhang Tianyang.

During this period, Yan Poyue provided full firepower to suppress the enemy and was responsible for covering Xiao Yunjie's safe retreat.

Once Xiao Yunjie entered the room and took his position, Zhang Tianyang shouted the command to retreat. Yan Poyue then began to retreat, positioning himself behind Xiao Yunjie in the same position.

Then it was Xiao Yunjie's turn to take over, forming a perfect firepower cycle.

Thanks to their excellent tactical coordination, the three managed to retreat to the stairwell unscathed, even with other players relentlessly pursuing them.

But just as the three of them quickly went downstairs and reached the corner of the stairs...

Two people suddenly appeared at the bottom of the stairs, seemingly having been lying in wait. They exposed themselves and began shooting at Yan Poyue and his two companions.

Fortunately, Zhang Tianyang, who was running ahead, reacted quickly and pulled back immediately.

At the same time, he spread his arms to block the two people behind him.

He then decisively pulled out a grenade, pulled the pin, and threw it down the stairs. It bounced off the wall and landed right at the bottom of the stairs.

The two players who were firing at the stairwell quickly retreated to take cover when they saw the grenade.

"Bang!"

The grenade exploded.

No one was hit, but that doesn't matter.

The moment the grenade exploded, Zhang Tianyang peeked out and fired at the first-floor stairwell, while Xiao Yunjie followed suit to suppress him.

Yan Poyue, the only one left, was about to come up, but Zhang Tianyang stopped him.

The order was given: "Go check the window and see if you can get down through it."

The stairwell on the first floor is blocked, and the enemies on the second floor are most likely pressing in. The only way out is through this window.

Yan Poyue also realized the seriousness of the situation and rushed to the window to look down.

You can see a little over a meter below that is the cement eaves of the first-floor window. Continuing down from this eaves, you will reach the ground in less than two meters.

He turned to his supervisor and reported, "You can go down!"

"Then let's go. You go first, Yun Jie second, and I'll be last."

Upon receiving Zhang Tianyang's order, Yan Poyue did not hesitate to use the wall to climb over and land lightly on the windowsill before leaping down.

Jumping from a height of just over two meters is like a bean sprout for an armed police officer.

The People's Armed Police are trained in "wall-climbing and scaling" skills.

Seeing Yan Poyue go down, Xiao Yunjie immediately put away his gun and jumped out of the window.

With only Zhang Tianyang left, he chose to throw a smoke bomb first to scare away the two contestants below, and then ran to the window and climbed out.

Fortunately, the first-floor windows were bricked up; this is a common problem in most abandoned buildings in China.

Some even seal off the doors!

This prevented the two contestants trapped on the first floor from spotting Yan Poyue and his two companions through the window, allowing them to escape by climbing out the window.

but.

Although the three escaped from the surrounded dormitory, they were not out of danger, as there were other contestants around the dormitory.

As soon as the three of them jumped out of the window, someone immediately opened fire on them.

Forced to the point that the three members of Group 02 didn't dare to breathe, they ran as fast as they could until they reached an L-shaped wall, where they could finally squat down and catch their breath.

The wall is in a tricky location; it's protected on the other sides, so the three of them only need to guard one side.

"Damn it, I'm so hungry I'm practically limp. I can barely run anymore. If you could give me a few steamed buns, I'd devour them all."

Xiao Yunjie leaned tightly against the wall, venting his frustration.

Being chased by a group of people can be really unpleasant.

However, both Yan Poyue and Zhang Tianyang knew that Xiao Yunjie was just putting on a brave front, a so-called "king of empty words," using it as an excuse for his hasty retreat.

"Who told you to be so fussy? You'll regret it if you don't eat bird meat," Zhang Tianyang said irritably.

Yan Poyue had been observing the dormitory building, and it wasn't until now that he realized something was wrong; the smoke coming from the dormitory building was much thicker than he had expected.

He asked doubtfully, "Do you guys think... this smoke is a bit too much?"

Upon hearing his words, Zhang Tianyang and Xiao Yunjie both looked towards the dormitory building. They were no longer complete novices and immediately noticed something was amiss.

"This smoke is a bit much. With just a few smoke grenades, there shouldn't be this much smoke," Xiao Yunjie said.

"And the smell of this smoke is strange. It smells like something is on fire. Could someone be setting a fire?" Zhang Tianyang guessed.

"That's quite possible, but I wonder... who started the fire?" Yan Poyue asked curiously.

Just then.

They climbed up the outer wall to the second floor, but failed to catch up with Yan Poyue and his two companions. They also noticed something was wrong with the smoke and followed it to the back door on the first floor.

They found a large pile of dry branches and leaves on the ground, which were smoldering and emitting thick white smoke.

"It wasn't a smokescreen, it was a fire set by someone?"

One of the contestants stared in astonishment at the campfire, unable to understand who would have the mind to set up a fire in such an intense fighting environment.

Just as the other contestant was about to go and take a look, an accident occurred.

"Smack."

Gunshots rang out in the distance.

The players who went to check on the campfire started to smoke, and in their instinctive shock, they couldn't help but shout, "Holy crap, there's a sniper!"

The other contestant reacted quickly upon hearing the warning, leaping back into the dormitory building in fright.

"A sniper?"

The eliminated contestant shouted loudly, and Xiao Yunjie and others in the distance heard it, which startled Xiao Yunjie, who shrank further into the corner.

"Luckily we got out. If he had kept an eye on us, we would have been finished."

Zhang Tianyang was glad he had given the order decisively, and then asked, "Yan Poyue, judging from the gunshots just now, can you pinpoint the sniper's location?"

Yan Poyue was also a sniper in Team 02, and snipers have more experience with each other.

"Not now, it was too sudden. But I know his approximate location. If he fires another shot, I can catch him."

After Yan Poyue finished speaking with great confidence, he went around to the left side of the wall and found a small mound to observe.

He kept muttering to himself, "Just one more shot, one more shot will be enough. Hurry up and come out, let me give you a surprise."

On the other side, the players trapped in the dormitory saw their teammates sitting down dejectedly, their faces full of dejection. They recalled that of the three people who came out of the company, only they were left to survive.

His anger, fueled by a sense of injustice and resentment, caused him to lose his reason at that moment.

"Squad leader, I'll go and kill this bastard, I'll definitely avenge you."

After saying that, the player rushed out of the house and, using what he thought was a safe S-shaped serpentine movement, ran towards the direction where the shooting had just taken place.

"Don't go, Xiao Yang..."

The contestant who was called class monitor wanted to dissuade him, but then he remembered that he had already been eliminated and, according to the competition rules, he could no longer speak.

Helplessly, he swallowed the rest of his words and watched Xiao Yang's retreating figure as he prayed for him.

This young Yang is quite experienced; he must have learned many ways to avoid snipers, as his running movements are quite skillful.

Not only do they constantly dodge left and right, but they also use various trees and debris as cover.

Seeing this from behind the wall, Xiao Yunjie couldn't help but praise, "This kid's got it! With his method, the sniper doesn't even have time to aim."

Xiao Yunjie seemed to have a knack for jinxing things; the gunshot rang out the moment he finished speaking.

Xiao Yang, who was working as a mobile phone maker for her best friend, had red smoke rising behind her.

It's like announcing to everyone that under his sniper lock, any movement is futile and ineffective.

"That works too..."

Xiao Yunjie was astonished by the incredible marksmanship.

Even Jackie Chan, in the command center, couldn't help but clap his hands a few times and praise the sniper's precise tracking shot, saying, "Not bad, really not bad, this marksmanship has reached a high level."

"He's really impressive, only slightly less so than Cheng Cai," Xu Sanduo said with a grin.

As a top-notch sniper, Cheng Cai remained silent, his eyes fixed on the screen, anticipating the sniper's next move.

The fact that it could attract the interest of the country's top snipers says it all.

"This sniper is really skilled. Even in our Cheetah Commando, there are probably only a handful of people who can do this. Who is he?" Lu Tu asked in great surprise.

"I found them!"

After waiting here for half a day to calm down, he answered with a smug expression.

"His sniping skills are good, but..."

Seeing that his spotlight had been stolen by his chosen player, Qin Feng suddenly gave a different answer amidst the general praise from everyone.

Her previously composed demeanor, chin held high with pride, changed upon hearing Qin Feng's words, causing her to frown and ask, "What is it?"

"He's just too arrogant. He doesn't even have an observer. No matter how good his individual skills are, he can't go all the way if he's fighting alone, unless he can find someone else to cooperate with."

Qin Feng seemed to have forgotten that his most favored seed player, Bai Long, was now fighting alone, which was not what he had said before.

The contrast between the preceding and following statements reveals a classic case of double standards.

"Really? I have a lot of confidence in her. We'll see. Besides..."

Calmly, a strange smile appeared on his face as he said in a teasing tone, "Captain, if I remember correctly, that big fish you released was also fighting alone. Doesn't that mean it won't make it to the end?"

"..."

Captain Qin Feng was rebuffed and could only manage a speechless, bitter smile.

I'd forgotten about that!

Seeing Captain Qin Feng's embarrassed expression, Jackie Chan, Xu Sanduo, Cheng Cai, and Lü Tu couldn't help but smile.

To help his superior out of the awkward situation, Lü Tu stepped forward and changed the subject, saying, "I'm telling you two, you've both put your own stuff in here. If I'd known, I should have picked one myself."

"Becoming a master isn't something you can just do on a whim; it requires opportunity and connections. I'm sorry, but you don't seem to have those, haha," Leng Jing joked.

"I don't disagree with what you said. A tigress isn't so easy to find," Lu Tu chuckled.

"She's not a tigress. In her unit, her code name is Lone Wolf. She's best at individual combat and never needs a spotter."

As she spoke calmly, she deliberately looked at Qin Feng, clearly refuting his judgment.
