Using two grenade launchers by one person is naturally not as efficient as two people each using one. He could already imagine the Lungmen cops and that bastard doctor from Rhodes Island crying and screaming in the explosion.

"If you want me to go after Rhodes Island, I'm sorry, I can't do it." Misha sensed her brother's crazy idea and quickly shook her head, dismissing his thoughts.

"What? These people could attack at any moment and hold a knife to our throats. Are we just going to surrender?"

"No, they will definitely help the infected. Rhodes Island is different from Ursus; we can talk!"

"So many of my compatriots have died at the hands of these executioners, and now you want to negotiate with these traitors?"

As Broken Bones recalled his fallen comrades in Chern City, the dead and wounded subordinates in the ruined city, and Qin Duanyu's provocative address, anger and resentment boiled and burned in his chest.

This strong emotion subtly influenced Misha's thoughts. For a moment, she even felt that what Shattered Bones said made sense. Where was Rhodes Island when those Ursus people were bullying the infected and kept saying they wanted to help them?

When they could no longer endure the inhumane treatment and tried to fight back, this group began to slaughter them. What else could they be but traitors among the infected?

Misha gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, but accidentally touched something hard.

It was a milk candy that Qin Duanyu had given her before, and there were only a few left now, but it reminded her of the innocent and lovely Amiya, the cold on the outside but warm on the inside Chen, and that slightly silly and interesting doctor...

“No!” Misha’s eyes regained their clarity, and she retorted firmly.

If the Reunion Movement's targets were those damned Ursus elites, those mine owners who oppressed the infected, she would have absolutely no objection. But these people actually turned their knives on innocent people.

Just because they were powerless, they were regarded as accomplices and unwittingly included in the ranks of the enemy?

"What's wrong? The Reunion Movement, led by Lady Talulah, is the only hope the Infected have. Rhodes Island is actually helping those bastards to extinguish our hopes. They are the traitors to the Infected!" As Misha recovered, Broken Bones seemed to calm down as well, and his words were not as harsh as before, but he still had no goodwill towards Rhodes Island.

"Have you ever thought that this Lady Talulah you speak of has slowly changed?" Misha said quietly. "Someone once told me that to observe someone's character, you shouldn't listen to what they say, but rather observe what they do!"

"What did Lady Talulah do? She rescued me from that damned mine, taught me how to gain power, and trained me to be a qualified warrior!" Shattered Bones said in a deep voice.

"And it has turned you into a cold-blooded animal that indiscriminately kills innocent people?"

"All of this is a sacrifice for the future of the infected! Misha, what is it that has blinded you?"

"I want to ask you the same question: what exactly turned you into this?"

Just like their first meeting and their reminiscing, neither of the siblings could convince the other, but this time, Suigu's heart began to waver.

A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.

This is a sentence that Broken Bones regards as his life motto, but those who have never provoked him, or even those whose lives have never intersected with his, seem to have become pitiful victims under his full-blown anger.

Am I... really being blinded by love?

"Bonebreaker, something bad has happened! The ambush failed! Lungmen's troops are heading towards the mine!" Just as Bonebreaker was questioning his life, a Reunion soldier ran over and said with a hint of panic.

"What happened? This time, Paul and the Kingkiller are in charge. How are they?"

"Uncle Paul died on his way back..."

"Damn it, what about the king killer?" Upon hearing that his friend and advisor of many years had died in battle, Broken Bone no longer had time to think.

Screw negotiations, Rhodes Island, die!

"She was pushed off a cliff and was seriously injured."

"Disgraceful thing, send her back to Chernobog right now, yes, with Misha!"

That's all for today. I seem to be a bit lazy with my writing. From now on, I'll be updating three times a day unless something unexpected happens. If there are any extra updates, I'll let you know in advance.

Chapter 93, Section 100: If you can't win, flip the table?

The kingslayer was forced to withdraw from the battlefield, and the enemy commander was also sniped in the chaos. The Reunion Movement's ambush team fell into chaos and fled towards the abandoned mine like headless flies.

"Old Chen, the battlefield is almost cleared up. The Doctor is still leading a squad to deal with small groups of resistance fighters." Hoshiguma walked over, carrying a Reunion soldier, and gave a brief report on the situation.

The small number of lurking troops left behind by the Kingslayer, along with the elite of the Shattered Bones, used the terrain to wage guerrilla warfare. Even though the Dragon Gate side had a large number of people, it was extremely difficult to clear them out. It was more suitable for Qin Duanyu's small team to handle them.

"Besides this ambush, what other arrangements has your leader made? Speak now!" Chen glanced at the soldier, grabbed him by the collar, and demanded sharply.

"No, don't hit me... I... I really don't know anything," the unlucky guy mumbled. Looking at the dents on his mask and comparing them to Hoshiguma's Hannya Shield, it wasn't hard to guess what he had gone through.

It wasn't that he was being stubborn; Shatterbones had indeed only arranged an ambush, and then set up defensive fortifications in the abandoned mine. As for what W was going to do, let alone a regular cannon fodder soldier like him, even Shatterbones probably didn't know.

"Tell the doctor to take all those who surrender into custody, and kill those who resist on the spot. Also, send a portion of the troops back to Lungmen. The rest of the troops should continue the pursuit and not give the enemy a chance to breathe." Chen threw him to the ground and led Machidir and the others to continue the pursuit.

Although she was facing a group of demoralized and fleeing soldiers, she did not let her guard down. Instead, she cautiously directed her troops to advance step by step, without showing any intention of being greedy for merit or making rash advances.

This approach quickly proved effective.

While passing through a small plain, dozens of Sarkaz mercenaries suddenly lifted the cloth covering their heads and emerged from the yellow sand to launch an attack. Hoshiguma, Ferdinand, and other heavy armored soldiers quickly raised their shields to defend themselves, while the remaining operators used the cover to launch a counterattack.

Boom!

With the sound of the explosion, Ferdinand was sent flying backward, and Hoshiguma quickly filled in for him, blocking the attack that followed.

The broken bones are here?

She looked in the direction of the attack and saw a Sarkaz girl in a red dress and black clothes.

It's that guy named W!

Based on the intelligence shared by Rhodes Island and the confessions of the prisoners, she was able to confirm their identities as Reunion cadres.

"Hey, isn't this the officer from the city? You didn't run all the way here, did you?" W recognized Hoshiguma and chuckled. "That motorcycle looks like the latest model this year. It's a real shame."

"Damn it, I will definitely avenge that child!" Even the good-tempered Hoshiguma couldn't help but show her anger. That was the car she had fallen in love with at first sight at the auto show, and she only managed to buy it with the discount coupons given by Qin Duanyu and her savings of many years.

Before he could even settle in, he was blown up by this Sarkaz.

"Hoshiguma, don't be provoked by her, there might be an ambush!" Chen placed his hand on Hoshiguma's shoulder and advised in a deep voice, "She can't stop us with just these people, she definitely has a backup plan, so don't make any rash moves."

"Look at you closely. You always have that stern face, always looking fierce and ready to chop someone up at the drop of a hat. You have absolutely no femininity." W smiled seductively, crossing her arms to create an alluring curve. "Do you really think any man would be interested in you? Those rumors weren't written by paparazzi you hired, were they?"

"Guards Bureau, attack! Flank them, don't let a single one escape!" As soon as W finished speaking, Chen's hand was already on the hilt of Chixiao's sword.

Well, she's offended the two most ruthless women in the Royal Guard in one go. If this were Lungmen, she'd be practically dead.

The Sarkaz mercenaries were brave as they were, but they were still no match for the enraged Jie and Gui. Several Sarkaz greatswordsmen who went up to fight were cut down after only a few minutes.

Just as the two women were about to aggressively pin W to the ground, an explosion suddenly came from beneath their feet. Although the power was not great, the dust it kicked up blocked their vision and hindered their advance.

It seems that W had planted explosives nearby beforehand. Whether he misjudged the timing or not, no one was injured. Moreover, this action served as a warning to Chen, allowing her to calm down completely.

If this leads to an explosion and causes even greater losses, then she, as the commander, would be far too irresponsible.

"If I were you, I would obediently retreat and would never continue chasing you." By the time the smoke cleared, W had already led his men far away, and he even pretended to be kind as he reminded them.

What's going on? This guy just said something harsh and ran away?

"Send out a reconnaissance team to bypass the main road and, ideally, track down their group. We absolutely cannot let those bastards escape!" Chen hesitated for a moment. "What about the bomb disposal team? Have them bring a few bomb disposal robots!"

Just as Chen gave the order, Qin Duanyu finished dealing with the remaining enemies and hurriedly caught up.

"Chen, what's the situation on your end? Did you encounter any broken bones?"

"No, it's W." Chen shook his head and briefly explained what had just happened.

After listening, Qin Duanyu looked at the surrounding terrain and her expression suddenly changed.

"Run! Run as far as you can!"

He took Amiya's hand and called for everyone to retreat. Although they were somewhat confused, they trusted Qin Duanyu and retreated in an orderly manner, taking turns to cover each other.

"What kind of cover are you talking about? Those bastards are probably faster than us. Unless they're suicidal, there's no way they could possibly launch a sneak attack!" Qin Duanyu said, pointing to the distant mountains.

The terrain is steep, consisting mainly of gravel and mud. Judging from the erosion marks, it had rained recently, and the mud had fully absorbed the water. It only needed a little bit of assistance...

boom!

A series of loud explosions came from afar. Several kilometers away, the flames and smoke from the explosions merged into one, followed by a violent tremor of the earth, creating a terrifying scene as if battle energy had transformed into ten thousand galloping horses.

Mudslide!

The mud and rocks, carrying immense gravitational potential energy, rushed rapidly towards the exposed plain. Although everyone managed to evacuate the disaster-affected area in time, they were still covered in dust and dirt.

"Now I finally understand why Scout couldn't beat her and was seriously injured twice in a row!" Qin Duanyu said with a frown as he looked at the man-made disaster that was still raging in front of him.

By provoking the enemy with meaningless nonsense, causing them to temporarily lose their minds, and then creating a false impression, Qin Duanyu could have launched his own plan. If Qin Duanyu hadn't reacted quickly enough, the pursuing force would likely have suffered heavy losses.

He had a vague feeling that W's combat style was somewhat familiar.

Especially the shameless tactic of flipping the table when you can't win a fight—humans shouldn't, and should never, be so immoral.

Damn, is she self-taught, or was she taught by some bastard?

Surprisingly... it has a bit of my style!

Chapter 94, Section 101: Sorry, times have changed!

Outside the abandoned mine, the A4 team carefully avoided the patrols of Reunion Movement members and continued their pursuit towards Chernobog.

"Miss Meteor, can you find any traces of the enemy leaving?" The group quickly stopped at a three-way intersection. Melantha looked at the black-haired Kuranta girl lying on the ground and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, the tracks extend all the way here, but the tire tracks at the intersection are messy, so it will take a while to pinpoint them." The girl looked up and said softly to them, "Let's find a shady spot; heatstroke can be a real problem at a time like this."

This gentle older sister named Meteor was a sniper operator who was specially assigned to their team by Qin Duanyu some time ago.

Unlike other teams that are formed to fill gaps in their capabilities, Melantha's team, under the Doctor's guidance, has gone further and further in the direction of mobile warfare. In particular, the addition of Meteor, who has rich combat experience and is good at tracking and wilderness survival, has made up for the team's lack of experience.

The Reunion Movement never expected that Rhodes Island had such an eccentric team that, after abandoning their vehicles and leaving the main road, managed to traverse mountains and valleys using a rudimentary map and successfully outmaneuver them.

Unfortunately, Group A4 was too small, and the mine was heavily guarded. Even if they launched a sneak attack, they could not cause any real damage. On the contrary, if their whereabouts were discovered, they would be at risk of being wiped out.

However, Qin Duanyu had no intention of letting them do such a foolish thing; Melansha and her group had a more important mission.

"It seems the doctor was right. After discovering the unfavorable situation at the front, they will definitely move Misha." The girl from Felin nodded solemnly. "Luckily, we made it in time. We must find a way to rescue Misha!"

Qin Duanyu's original order was to track Misha after discovering she had been moved, and to delay the escort team's progress as much as possible while ensuring his own safety.

But with a major battle imminent, in order to draw Lungmen's attention and buy more time, Shattered Bones certainly couldn't spare many people for escort, which gave A4 Group the opportunity to sneakily take advantage of the situation.

"Ugh, how can two legs possibly catch up with a car wheel? Are we supposed to chase it all the way to Chernobog without stopping?" Katie said, taking a big gulp of water and sticking out her tongue.

This slightly hot and dry region made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, judging from the current situation, many of their vehicles have been damaged in the battle. Now they are mostly using civilian vehicles that were looted from Lungmen. Those delicate things are not like our off-road vehicles," Stewart said with a smile, trying to reassure them.

Given the terrible road conditions, the cars that were stolen from Lungmen wouldn't last long, and even if they were usable, they wouldn't be very fast.
