...
All twenty-six members of the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps sent to assassinate Qin Fang had been killed by him without exception, including the Deputy Corps Leader.
Of the twenty-six, more than half were blasted to death directly, and Qin Fang killed a smaller number himself, but still around a dozen.
Qin Fang certainly wouldn't care about these corpses; he believed it wouldn't be long before the police and military would send people over. It was best to leave the clean-up to them.
But the equipment of these mercenaries was quite good. Naturally, Qin Fang wasn't going to be polite; he immediately stripped the equipment from their bodies... stuffed it into the Props Box, ready to take it away.
Qin Fang now had a small force under his command, namely Chen Da and his group. Though all of them were ex-special forces with good abilities, the lack of weapons and equipment was a significant weakness.
Although Qin Fang asked Tang Cheng for some help and prepared a few gun permits and handguns for them, it was still relatively weak. After all, the state doesn't allow private ownership of real heavy weapons.
Qin Fang could purchase some through the black market on the Assassin platform, but with the points he had from completing only one mission, he was about to run out and would need to undertake another new mission to earn more, not to mention going to the black market...
So while this time was extremely dangerous, and he had narrowly escaped death, it had also brought Qin Fang quite a substantial reward...
Twenty-six mercenaries, more than half blasted to death, with many of their equipments destroyed. However, as Qin Fang stripped them all, he also collected a good number of useable items.
Especially MP5 submachine guns, heavy sniper rifles, Desert Eagles, Beretta handguns, and many more, as well as night vision goggles, hand grenades, military spikes, bulletproof vests, and other equipment, enough for Qin Fang to organize a ten-man special assault team...
"Oh, right, Chu Qianqian..."
After he had finished gathering the equipment, Qin Fang suddenly remembered the commotion he had caused and had forgotten about Chu Qianqian. He immediately rushed to the location where Chu Qianqian was hiding.
Because Qin Fang had been deliberately attracting the enemy's attention, trying not to let the mercenaries approach where Chu Qianqian was hiding, the last batch had unexpectedly come from that direction.
Given the brutality of the mercenaries, if they had found Chu Qianqian, they definitely wouldn't have hesitated to leave no survivors... Time had been delayed so much that Qin Fang couldn't help but worry.
Though it was deep into the night, and the mountains and forests had grown even darker, it was almost impossible to distinguish the directions, Qin Fang still returned to Chu Qianqian's hiding place at the fastest speed.
"Where is she... where is she..."
However, what appeared in front of him was a collapsed cave, with rocks and soil having completely buried the cave entrance. There were signs of mercenary presence nearby, and Qin Fang's face turned pale, an ominous idea forming in his mind.
But Qin Fang didn't just stand idle; Chu Qianqian's body was not nearby, which meant that at least she hadn't died there. Qin Fang feared she might be buried in the cave.
The cave was surrounded by stones, so Qin Fang set off two grenades. The stones on the cave's roof fell, which could easily have knocked Chu Qianqian unconscious, and she might be buried alive inside.
Thus, Qin Fang immediately rushed to the cave without hesitation, and his hands quickly began to move the rubble, intending to dig Chu Qianqian out...
"Where is she? Where is she..."
However, he soon realized that although the cave had collapsed, Chu Qianqian's figure was not inside; the cave was not very large, and he confirmed this after digging around for a while.
But this made him baffled again—if Chu Qianqian wasn't buried alive and the mercenaries didn't take her away, where could she be?
"Could it be..."
As much as Qin Fang disliked the thought, that very unpleasant idea came to mind again.
And just then, Qin Fang's ears twitched slightly, faintly catching some noise, followed by a sudden chill on his back. Qin Fang's eyes shrank instantly, and he made a slight movement.
"Be careful..."
Bang~~
Almost at the same time, a woman's exclamation, along with a gunshot, rang out.
Thump~~~
Qin Fang was hit once again. Even though he reacted quickly, he was not faster than the bullet; his right arm took a bullet immediately.
A sharp pain shot through him, causing Qin Fang to involuntarily drop the gun in his hand... But Qin Fang quickly rolled on the ground and darted behind a nearby tree.
Covering his injured, bleeding arm, Qin Fang hid behind the tree and only dared to peek out a little, looking towards the back.
The woman who had cried out a warning was naturally Chu Qianqian, whom Qin Fang had been searching for. She seemed unharmed at the moment, but she was being held hostage.
"Come out, you can't escape... If you don't want your woman to be killed by my gun, come out from behind the tree quickly! I'll give you three seconds... One... Two..."
To Qin Fang's surprise, the one who had grabbed Chu Qianqian was actually from Dragon Country, or at least he spoke Chinese very fluently, unlike the mercenaries Qin Fang had previously killed who all spoke English.
However, what made Qin Fang feel helpless was that this man was actually with the other mercenaries, or to say, a fugitive from the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps... and he had even taken Chu Qianqian hostage, forcing Qin Fang to come out from behind the tree.
"If you don't come out, I'm going to start shooting..."
Hidden behind a tree, the young man was clearly getting impatient; he pressed the gun against Chu Qianqian's head, seemingly serious about firing it.
"Wait... I'm coming out!"
Qin Fang's brow furrowed deeply. Faced with such a situation, he had no choice. The surrounding environment was actually very suitable for him to use Stealth, and it wouldn't be difficult to kill this last mercenary. However, he couldn't risk Chu Qianqian's safety.
So, Qin Fang slowly stood up, holding his bleeding right arm, and walked out from behind the tree... He was still wearing a bulletproof vest, protecting several vital areas on his upper body. Although at such close range, it would provide little resistance, it still made Qin Fang's life somewhat more secure.
"Drop all your weapons!"
Even though Qin Fang's right hand had indeed been shot and was bleeding, the young man still didn't seem to be completely at ease and immediately ordered with his gun pressed against Chu Qianqian's head.
"Qin Fang, don't worry about me, just run..."
Chu Qianqian's face was pale, completely devoid of color, but in such a situation, she had to make a choice and immediately yelled to Qin Fang.
"Shut up! Speak again, and I'll blow your head off..."
Before Qin Fang could even speak, the mercenary used the gun to jab Chu Qianqian forcefully, and there was also a somewhat ferocious look on his face, as if he really might pull the trigger.
"Don't kill her! I've come out... I don't have any weapons on me!"
Qin Fang's brow furrowed tightly; he could see that the mercenary opposite him was even more nervous. As Qin Fang walked out from behind the tree, he was simultaneously using the Mind Reading Technique to detect the mercenary's psychological reactions.
There was no doubt that at that moment, just before, the mercenary really had developed the intent to kill Chu Qianqian. Qin Fang naturally couldn't just watch her get killed, so he immediately came out and showed the other party that he indeed had no gun.
"You fool! Get out of here... otherwise, we will both die here!"
Chu Qianqian's complexion turned even uglier, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face, all the while urging Qin Fang to leave the place.
Of course, she understood that the reason the mercenary was using her to threaten Qin Fang was to kill him, and once Qin Fang died, she, a weak woman, would have no chance of surviving.
Faced with this mercenary, she had no chance of escaping on her own, but Qin Fang had managed to bring her out of the rain of bullets unscathed and could also manage to escape at this moment.
"I won't go... If we're going, we'll go together!"
But Qin Fang's attitude was very firm. Gazing directly into Chu Qianqian's eyes, monitoring her and the mercenary behind her, Qin Fang was also looking for an opportunity.
This night was a great limitation for a gunman, but it had little effect on Qin Fang. He was absolutely confident that at the moment the mercenary showed his head, he could shoot him with one bullet. The guy wouldn't even have the chance to fire...
However, the problem was that the mercenary was very cautious, always hiding behind Chu Qianqian, never giving even a slight chance to show himself. No matter how skilled Qin Fang's marksmanship was, it was of no use.
"Want to leave? Then I'll send you both on your way first..."
The mercenary sneered. The gun previously aimed at Chu Qianqian's head suddenly turned around, aimed at Qin Fang, preparing to shoot.
At such a close distance, Qin Fang appeared completely unguarded. With the mercenary's marksmanship, Qin Fang would have no chance of resisting...
"Don't..."
Seeing this person was actually about to shoot Qin Fang, Chu Qianqian didn't know what she was thinking, but suddenly feeling a rush of emotion, her restrained body violently slammed into the mercenary behind her.
They were very close, and Chu Qianqian struck suddenly, taking the mercenary completely off guard... The direction of the gun shifted slightly.
Bang~~
Bang~~
Almost at the exact same moment, two gunshots sounded simultaneously, one from the mercenary and the other from Qin Fang.
Thud~thud~
Two blooms of blood burst forth at the same time...
Qin Fang's bullet instantly pierced the mercenary's forehead, killing him outright...
But he couldn't prevent the other from firing. That bullet, originally aimed at Qin Fang, now, with Chu Qianqian's collision, shifted its course, and the bullet ruthlessly entered Chu Qianqian's back...(To be continued.
