[COD] Newbie's Rise to Power

You were surprised too, and after hearing Koenig's words, you couldn't help but silently applaud in your heart:

Okay, okay... How can this not be considered trying to meet the 'requirements'?

Fortunately, the pregnant woman was unharmed.

But you really didn't expect that Koenig's usual personality was so different from his personality on missions. He was like a reckless, arrogant, yet fierce attacker.

And this wasn't even on a very dangerous battlefield. You can't imagine how impulsive and brave he would be on the battlefield.

Taking advantage of this time, you who were hiding at the door quickly entered the room with guns and took the pregnant woman into custody.

After a brief examination of the pregnant woman, you and Vita use ropes to tie her up.

Originally, we wanted to use the figure-eight binding method, but considering that it would be inconvenient for the pregnant woman's belly, we finally used the basic back-hand binding method.

Even so, he was still scolded by the pregnant woman in dissatisfaction:

"Be gentle! You're hurting me!"

"Don't tie it so tight, it hurts my stomach..."

As she spoke, her face turned pale, and she seemed to be feeling really unwell.

After exchanging a glance with Vita, you reluctantly let the rope out a little longer.

The ghost tells you and Vita to take the pregnant woman and leave first, then go find Zimo and the others.

He and Luo Wei led the way, clearing a path for you and escorting you out of the building. They only turned back after you had left the abandoned building.

There are still a few drug dealers hiding elsewhere, and it will take them some time to try and capture them alive.

You and Vita, you walk in front to clear the way, while Vita walks behind, holding the pregnant woman's arm and pushing her forward.

The pregnant woman kept whimpering and complaining the whole way, but you all ignored her.

The more sympathetic and attentive one is to a criminal, the more easily one is influenced by them, thus making mistakes.

But you didn't expect that ignoring her wouldn't prevent it.

You walk ahead, your ears automatically filtering out the woman's murmurs behind you, but Vita's exclamation draws your attention back.

Damn it!

You hear Vita's low curses and immediately turn around, only to find that the pregnant woman is gone.

If you look in the direction Vita looks, you will see the woman's back as she nimbly darts into the jungle.

Vita raised his gun, and you immediately reached out to stop him: "The lieutenant said that pregnant women must not be harmed."

Vita irritably put down his gun.

You patted Vita on the shoulder: "I'll go and bring her back."

After saying that, you immediately unloaded the rifle and other heavy equipment, and with only a light pistol in hand, you quickly chased after the woman in the direction she had fled!

How fast can a pregnant woman run? You're confident you can catch her!

You quickly dart into the jungle, only fifty or sixty meters away from the woman in front of you.

But you are gradually getting closer, and since it is inconvenient for a woman, her speed of movement is naturally not fast.

The woman seemed to have noticed this as well. She lifted her wide skirt with one hand and pulled it forcefully with the other!

She pulled out something that was roughly semi-circular in shape and then casually tossed it behind her!

By now you understand perfectly well that the woman was faking being pregnant!

Seeing that the woman was moving faster, you had no choice but to speed up as well, unable to pay much attention to your surroundings.

And so, you can't stop the dense grass from leaving shallow scratches on your face.

You had no time to care about the itching and pain on your face; you were focused on catching up!

Finally, you caught up with the woman by a stream!

The woman was probably not trained in professional combat; after a few exchanges, you managed to pin her to the ground.

But just as you were about to tie the woman up, she suddenly turned her hand over, reached into her loose collar, pulled out a small pistol from her chest, and fired a shot at you without hesitation!

Fortunately, you reacted quickly, immediately flipped over to dodge, and kicked the gun out of the woman's hand!

The pistol flew through the air and fell into the stream behind the woman.

But even at that speed, the bullet still grazed your arm, leaving a scratch.

"Depend on!"

The pain makes you want to swear.

Just how much is this woman hiding?!

You really underestimated her. You thought she was just a weak pregnant woman, but you didn't expect her to be so cunning!

You dared not approach her again, so you pulled out a pistol, pointed it at her, and threatened, "If you move again, I'll shoot!"

After all, the woman isn't actually pregnant; you could kill her now and it wouldn't matter.

But the woman's eyes were red and tears kept flowing, her emotions were clearly not right.

You frown. Could she have... taken drugs?

Considering the woman's behavior along the way, it was indeed too abnormal; there was a high probability that she had taken drugs.

Therefore, your threat doesn't seem scary to her; instead, she raises a strange smile and pounces on you!

"I'm pregnant, you can't..."

"sudden--"

The woman's body, which had lunged at him, collapsed with a thud.

You sighed: "I told you, I would shoot."

You will no longer gamble with your life, and any potential danger should be eliminated without hesitation.

You put the pistol away, bend down, grab the woman's shoulders, and drag her along the ground.

You have no choice but to collect the body and take it back. This will also prove that you didn't kill a pregnant woman, otherwise you'll probably be cursed to death by the ghost.

Just as you were dragging the corpse, a low growl sounded!

The incredibly intimidating roar was so loud, it felt like it was right next to you.

You froze. That sound...was it a tiger?

ch.98: The Big Tiger

You suddenly turn your head and look in the direction of the beast's roar.

The next second, a yellow figure slowly emerged from the bushes.

It really is a tiger!

Why are there tigers here?! Doesn't this country have no wild tigers?!

But you no longer have the mind to think about these things.

An adult tiger's paw strike can reach nearly 1000 kilograms, which even Tyson couldn't match!

Moreover, tigers have a very strong bite force, nearly 500 kilograms, which can easily crush human bones.

You... can't beat him.

Without hunting experience, you simply cannot hit its vital spot with a single shot; firing indiscriminately will only provoke its rage!

Unless absolutely necessary...

You feel stiff all over, and cold sweat seems to be pouring down your back.

You stare into the tiger's beastly eyes, and you can almost feel the longing in them.

Calm down! YN, you need to calm down!

Think carefully, think carefully about what it needs...

Animals, whether domesticated or wild, basically live lives that revolve around only three things.

Eating, drinking, sleeping, and reproducing.

It's obvious that it doesn't want to sleep right now.

That can only mean... it's hungry.

You look down at the corpse beneath you; it was probably her blood that attracted the tiger.

You already had a plan in mind, and silently apologized to the woman whose eyes were not closed.

You grab the woman's arm, then reach down to your lower back, pull out the dagger you always carry, and forcefully strike the woman's joint!

The curved blade of a dagger can easily cut through flesh; as long as the right joint is found, severing an animal's limbs is not a problem.

You yanked hard and threw the severed limb at the tiger in front of you.

With a nimble leap, the tiger bit the severed limb with its mouth!

Then it chewed with its long teeth, blood splattering and dripping from its mouth...

The tiger quickly finished eating, but its eyes remained fixed on you.

You received its signal, kicked the body under your feet, and then slowly took two steps back, making a gesture of retreat.

As the tiger slowly approached, you also slowly retreated a few steps.

Then... I witnessed a bloody animal feeding scene up close.

You are slowly moving your feet, trying to slip away while the tiger is eating.

But you don't dare to be too obvious, after all, you can't guarantee that it won't suddenly pounce on you.

Ten minutes or so passed, and the distance between you and the tiger had been increasing, but suddenly the tiger raised its head and walked towards you.

Your body stiffens instantly at its action, and your mind races as you try to figure out how to react.

What can we do?! We can't beat them in a fight, and we can't outrun them!

You quickly scan your surroundings, wanting to climb a tree, but the nearest tree is several meters away.
