Chapter 459: Another five people killed!_1


Second update,

...

3:5!

The current situation wasn't too bad, at least the gap between the two sides wasn't too wide.

Xiao Jiu and his two comrades were discussing how to break through, how to get the message out, and how to lure out Qin Fang, the hidden enemy. Meanwhile, Qin Fang was certainly not idle either.

Looking at the undulating mounds, Qin Fang, with a sniper rifle in hand, was quickly shuttling through the mountains, incredibly fast. His army green camouflage uniform formed a faint afterimage against the grey mountain landscape.

"Tsk tsk, it's about time for Young Master Ai to show up~~"

In fact, Qin Fang hadn't stayed in the same position for too long, he had already been on the move, but he had been keeping an eye on Xiao Jiu and his two comrades all along.

He wasn't in a rush to take them out, as Ai Nan was the real Fat Sheep. Taking him down would almost guarantee victory.

However, seeing that six people had been deployed on this side, it was clear that Ai Nan had taken the other two to raid his base, and since there was no gunfire from that direction, it seemed Qiao Zhenfei and Chu Yunxuan had heeded his advice and surrendered directly.

That was not important, for once the gunfire started here, Ai Nan would definitely come to provide support. What Qin Fang needed to do was not to continue focusing on taking down the three people with Xiao Jiu, but to intercept the three with Ai Nan.

Xiao Jiu and his group had been fooled by Qin Fang's three shots and didn't dare poke their heads out, fearing they would become the fourth person to fall.

Their sacrifice was not important; what mattered was ultimately winning, no matter how great the cost along the way.

This was in line with Qin Fang's thinking. Out of his six-man team, five had fallen, leaving him the sole survivor, facing off against nine people. The difficulty was extremely high.

However, the enemy had clearly been too confident, thinking that numbers alone would ensure victory, not expecting Qin Fang to kill three people with just three shots.

Qin Fang estimated the time, thinking that Ai Nan should have looped back by now. He didn't bother with Xiao Jiu and his two comrades, who were hiding like turtles. Instead, he directly picked up his weapon and went to intercept Ai Nan.

The battlefield was vast, but Qin Fang had carefully observed the terrain along the way when he first arrived, which was why he wasn't much farther behind Li Yang and his group.

It was these preparations that now came into play. He silently calculated in his mind and quickly determined the most likely route Ai Nan would take.

According to his estimation, there was an 80% chance that Ai Nan would choose this route. The remaining 20% depended on luck; perhaps Ai Nan was someone who liked to take the road less traveled.

Even though Xiao Jiu's message hadn't arrived yet, Ai Nan had already discerned from the gunfire that Qin Fang was a sniper, and that a sniper had already killed several of their men.

And since no one had come to back up Xiao Jiu's group, it was clear that things were not going well over there. If they were to go for a rescue now, he needed to warn his teammates, to tell them that their opponent was formidable!

"Everyone be careful! The enemy sniper is very capable of long-range attacks, we must..."

Bang~~

Unfortunately, before he could finish, a gunshot rang out near his ear, and a teammate beside him didn't even have time to react before their head was blown off by a shot, another one down.

4:5!

The score changed once again. Qin Fang's sniping achieved another success, and the teammate following Ai Nan became the fourth "soul" to fall to Qin Fang's gun!

"Take cover!"

Ai Nan almost simultaneously with the gunshot lunged quickly, rolling several times on the ground before barely finding cover behind a barrier.

Bang~~

However, his other teammate was a bit slower to react, and before he could do so, another gunshot sounded.

Another headshot!

5:5!

The "death toll" for both sides was now even.

"Desert Eagle! He's nearby!"

Ai Nan's face was extremely grim; Qin Fang had unexpectedly given up on Xiao Jiu and his group, setting up defense early on this side, and clearly targeting him.

What made him even more depressed was they had blithely entered Qin Fang's range without realizing and had been shot at close range by Qin Fang, taking down two men.

The first one was taken out by a sniper rifle, which he could comprehend to an extent.

It was because of this reason that Ai Nan had had that moment to react, to escape during Qin Fang's brief pause to reload.

But the second person had been taken out by a Desert Eagle, a slap to the face indeed.

As a gun aficionado, he knew the performance of various firearms very well. The Desert Eagle was among the most powerful handguns, but its effective range was limited, generally only 200 meters.

Of course, with the addition of a scope, this range could extend to 300 meters, and if used by a highly skilled expert, even longer distances could be managed.

No matter which it was, Ai Nan knew that Qin Fang was not far from him, probably within two to three hundred meters, a distance that was extremely deadly for a sniper.

For Qin Fang, this was the case; for Ai Nan, it was the same!

He had known that Qin Fang could snipe and even that Qin Fang's shooting skills were not bad, which led him to assume that Qin Fang merely possessed a strong long-range striking ability.

But unexpectedly, Qin Fang was just as deadly at close range, capable of using a long-distance sniper rifle as well as a close-range Desert Eagle. Dealing with such an opponent became instantly several times more difficult.

Initially, Ai Nan had been full of confidence, certain that he could easily defeat Qin Fang. Now, his confidence had long vanished, replaced by deep wariness.

With this wariness in his heart, Ai Nan naturally became very cautious. Taking cover behind the barricade, he dared not move recklessly, only carefully observing the surrounding terrain, searching for Qin Fang's position from the perspective of a fellow sniper—a point where Ai Nan was clearly more discerning than Xiao Jiu and his team.

...

"Gunshots..."

Xiao Jiu and the other two had already discussed the plan to break out, but before they could act, two gunshots rang out from afar. One of them was very familiar—the sound of a sniper rifle.

"This is bad... Young Master Ai might have been ambushed!"

Xiao Jiu's face turned pale as he cried out in alarm.

Ai Nan was not only the leader but also the pillar of their team. If even he fell, they would have even less chance of victory, even against a lone opponent.

"We can't care about that now, charge~~"

At that moment, they couldn't hesitate any longer. Gritting his teeth, Xiao Jiu yelled at his companions, and then he himself was the first to rush out.

The other two, naturally, followed close behind, each sprinting in three different directions as they had planned beforehand.

Reloading a sniper rifle takes time, and an overheated barrel may require a brief cooling period; it's not possible to shoot continuously like with regular firearms.

If that weren't the case, Qin Fang wouldn't have chosen to get closer to Ai Nan before shooting his two men—it was all to avoid wasting too much time, aiming to kill swiftly and eliminate the opponent's living forces quickly.

As expected, the gunshot didn't ring out again; Qin Fang had clearly moved away. He was close to Ai Nan, which also meant he was now far from Xiao Jiu and the others.

Bang~~

But Xiao Jiu was clearly too quick to rejoice.

Almost just over thirty seconds later, as they saw no danger and were about to regroup, the sound of the sniper rifle sounded once more, and another of their teammates fell, still taken out with a headshot!

6:5!

The "death toll" on Ai Nan's side had risen to six, surpassing the five on Qin Fang's side. If victory were judged purely by numbers, Qin Fang and his team would be considered the winners.

However, they weren't calculating by numbers—only the last one standing would be the true victor. Both Qin Fang and Ai Nan were still "alive," making it uncertain who'd win or lose!

But the nightmare was far from over; they had broken out of their cover, and the surroundings were very open with no cover, no place to hide.

Bang~~

Another shot came, another headshot.

"Damn it, I can't play with you anymore!"

Xiao Jiu's eyes instantly flared red with rage as he let out a roar. But he could only witness Qin Fang killing another of his teammates, again powerless to do anything!

7:5!

The ratio continued to skew. Now, only Boss Ai Nan and Xiao Jiu were left on their side; all the others had "fallen in battle," all taken out with headshots!

The consecutive deaths of his teammates deeply saddened Xiao Jiu, but he could not admit defeat just yet. They hadn't been wiped out, and at least he and Ai Nan were still "alive." There was still a chance to turn the tide.

Seizing the moment while Qin Fang took a brief pause, Xiao Jiu finally broke through the encirclement and appeared in Ai Nan's field of vision.

"Boss..."

Upon seeing Ai Nan, Xiao Jiu, a man usually as tough as steel, almost couldn't help wanting to burst into tears. They had experienced defeat before but never so terribly, so helplessly.

"Be careful..."

But at that moment, Ai Nan's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately issued a warning.

Bang~~

Unfortunately, his warning was still too late!

The gun fired again!

Xiao Jiu fell, his face a mixture of sorrow and resignation, as his chest blossomed with a vivid flower. He was the eighth to fall, and so far, the only one not to be killed by a headshot!

8:5!

The ever-growing disparity saw Ai Nan's side's absolute advantage completely vanished after Qin Fang's eight shots, with three more losses than Qin Fang's team! (To be continued.
