Chapter 588: This Opponent Is Beyond Our Assessment (Part Two)

He ran across about two-hundred meters when he saw Pique’s dead body with a shot through his nose bridge.

Same lethal spot. Bruce could feel the goosebumps all over his body as he quickly reported to everyone. “Listen, this sniper is not simple. The three shots he’s fired so far have all been hits, and he seems to know where our armor’s weak points are. He’s a tough opponent and Pique was killed with the same shot through his face…”

Bang!

The sound of a gunshot was heard in the open space before Bruce could finish his words.

The shot could be heard by the commanders as well as the sound of his voice that got cut off.

Casey asked in a somewhat tentative manner, “Bruce?”

No sound.

Cassey was worried. “Bruce? Don’t you f*cking play with me, answer if you can hear me!”

The commanders sighed on the other side. “He probably died!”

Casey and the rest of the team were in rage.

“Sh*t!” The group of soldiers were furious.

They haven’t executed any of their plans yet and four of their comrades had been killed within the blink of an eye, especially that they died without a word. They didn’t even see the enemy clearly and only knew that there was a sniper. Yet the most hateful and infuriating thing was knowing where he was and what gun he was using, but there was no way to go over and kill him.

Recalling that gesture where he raised his hand at the drone, it was total provocation!

The commanders seemed to sense the opponent’s instincts and knew that he was a master with extreme skills. So far, he had fired four shots and four soldiers had been killed; and, puzzlingly, it didn’t seem like his vision was affected by the sand and wind.

“Casey, listen. This opponent is far beyond our initial assessment, and you need to retreat immediately. This area may not be a big fish but rather a big shark!” the commander shouted to the remaining twenty-four soldiers on the scene.

“Sir, we haven’t even seen their basecamp yet and we’ve lost four men. You’re telling us to retreat? Do you want us to lose our dignity? To have our nation’s dignity become a joke for others, allowing our M Nation’s special forces to be mocked for being unable to even wipe out the weakest District 7?” Casey said, “I’m the captain, I’ll take command of this battle.”

The commanders didn’t actually want to call off the attack in such a mess either. “Then you guys be careful, I’ll bring in drones from other areas as soon as I can to help you from above.”

Casey temporarily turned off his headset and commanded, “Listen guys, this sniper might just be a sharpshooter, let’s get in the truck and take him out.”

“But we would step on mines. We haven’t completely cleared the mines in front of us yet, and it’s dangerous to drive the car over. If he’s waiting for us at that place, there must be a mine in between.”

He had a reasonable prediction.

Sweat broke out on Casey’s forehead as he pondered how to take out the sniper first.

“In that case, we’ll creep forward and put our helmets in front to protect our heads and faces from showing. Bring the minesweeper and we’ll get over these mines.”

The others felt the plan would work.

Using the creeping method with their physique, they could easily reach 1 km within a short amount of time, especially since they didn’t need to crawl all the way to the other side; they just needed to spot Xu Cheng first so their snipers could accurately take him out.

Having thought that, the twenty-four soldiers crawled away from the vehicle and scattered as they all headed towards Xu Cheng’s direction.

The commanders said to the technician immediately, “Transfer the other areas’ drones to this battlefield immediately. Fast! Head there with the fastest flying speed!”

“I will need fifteen minutes according to the direction and speed.“

Fifteen minutes later, the technician said, “Sir, this time I’ve taken the drone to its maximum altitude. I can see that our soldiers have crossed the area filled with sandy wind.”

“Do you see the sniper?”

“Yes, he’s still at the same spot.”

The commanders immediately picked up the headset and said to Casey, “The sniper is still there. Be careful. We’ve got our eyes again, so we can see his movements.”

“Good, he can’t hurt us now at all even if he could hit us. You guys continue to monitor him.”

Xu Cheng looked through his lens at the group of soldiers who were actually holding their helmets in front of themselves so his bullet wouldn’t be able to penetrate through. It would be a little painful if he hits their shoulders, but that pain was perfectly bearable for this group of well-trained and powerful soldiers.

“Want to cross the minefield? Did you ask me?” Xu Cheng smiled slightly.
