Chapter 291: Complete chaos
May 13th, early morning on Monday.
At this time, the night was as dark as ink.
In a dilapidated wooden house on the edge of the town, Shiraishi and Nick Horton quickly began their escape after some exchanges.
Shiraishi is carrying the rosewood Gundam sculpture. Its weight may be a physical burden, but the spiritual sustenance makes it as light as nothing.
Nick followed closely behind, carrying a backpack containing important supplies.
The air in the early morning is particularly fresh.
It had a hint of coolness, but that didn't lessen the heaviness in their hearts.
In this chaotic zone.
No matter how talented they are, sometimes they will be taken away by a random bullet from a passerby.
After all, the bullets fired from a child's gun are no different from those fired by an adult.
Regardless of whether he has any powerful abilities or is a big shot.
No matter how well prepared you are.
It is possible to encounter the situation where you are unable to perform.
In case you encounter absolute power.
The opponent is just unreasonable and uses force to win. With a shuttle AK pressed down, any creature in this world will have to kneel down and sing the song of conquest.
so.
Most of the time you have to be careful and careful.
The two chose to take advantage of the darkness and try their best to walk through the narrow paths on the edge of the town as carefully as possible to avoid leaving any traces.
It was still dark, and there was a depressing atmosphere surrounding the place.
On the edge of the town, low and dilapidated buildings looked particularly desolate in the night, and abandoned vehicles and garbage were scattered along the streets.
Dim street lights occasionally came on, but most of the place was pitch black.
Shiraishi and Nick tried to avoid bright areas and chose to walk in the shadows to avoid being spotted by others.
There was an uneasy atmosphere in the air, as if danger would come at any time.
Most residents on the edge of the town have gone to sleep, and only a few windows still have weak lights.
The night wind blew gently and the leaves rustled.
Occasionally, you can hear the barking of dogs in the distance.
Everything around is quiet.
The rhythmic and regular breathing and heartbeats of the two people seemed very loud at this moment.
I don’t know how much time passed.
As the first ray of light appeared, the entire area seemed to be stirred by an invisible force.
Probably because the delayed poison in the drug lord leader began to take effect, causing the entire area to fall into an even more chaotic state.
At least, the two people who had just arrived in a new place could clearly feel this change.
Armed forces began to march around, and the originally peaceful town became like a battlefield.
Along the way.
The two men, who managed to blend in with the local people and refugees through makeup, have already encountered several waves of armed forces.
The first encounter was when the genius had just turned white. Shiraishi and Nick were walking carefully through the narrow alleys on the edge of the town.
Suddenly, a group of heavily armed soldiers emerged from a nearby street.
Shiraishi and Nick quickly retreated into the shadows, trying to look like ordinary residents.
Fortunately, the group of soldiers didn't seem to notice them and quickly moved on.
The second encounter was even more thrilling.
As they were trying to cross a relatively open area, they suddenly heard a loud noise in the distance. The two were keenly aware that something was wrong, and they quickly ducked into an abandoned warehouse nearby.
The warehouse was dark and filled with all kinds of debris. Nick used these debris to make a temporary shelter, while Shiraishi placed the rosewood Gundam sculpture aside to try not to attract attention.
Not long after, a patrol passed outside the warehouse.
Shiraishi and Nick held their breath until the patrol was far away, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
These two encounters made Shiraishi and Nick even more nervous, and they realized that the current situation might be much more complicated than they expected.
It's really complicated here.
Their delayed poison only caused the drug lord leader to show some symptoms and faint, and the surrounding area immediately became chaotic in order to seize power.
When the drug lord leader died completely this morning due to delayed poison attack.
This covert and chaotic behavior is no longer hidden.
Instantly everything became lively.
Everyone was busy fighting for power, and not many people even cared about the cause of death of the leader.
They realized that they had to find a safe place to hide as soon as possible, otherwise it would be difficult to escape from this chaotic area.
They used local intelligence networks to constantly adjust their routes, trying to avoid the increasing number of patrols and checkpoints.
All morning.
As the situation continued to deteriorate, they discovered that the newly planned evacuation routes were no longer safe.
Shiraishi and Nick had to temporarily change their plans again and find a new path.
They used their skills and intelligence to try to confuse people and avoid the increasingly dense armed forces.
Although due to the chaotic situation, they had to change their plans frequently.
But until the evening, they had been hiding well without being discovered, and even said that they would escape and leave the place soon.
but……
The accident happened anyway.
After running around for a day, they planned to take a break in an abandoned factory.
But I just took out the portable dry food and took a few bites.
Then I found that the pre-arranged warning sounded.
But this time... it seems that we encountered a group of armed men who were inevitable.
"The infrared alarm was triggered and eight people came."
Shiraishi narrowed his eyes while looking at the information displayed on his watch.
The two of them immediately became alert and quickly packed their things.
It's really unexpected that there are people here looking for them. They chose this place to rest because it is far away from the place where all parties are fighting, and there is a high probability that they will run out.
But if someone does come now, there will be nothing to hide in this empty factory.
Once discovered in this case, it is likely to fall into an unpredictable and fierce battle.
The two exchanged glances and already had a tacit plan in each other's minds.
It would be best if you can avoid fighting.
But there is no hiding in this abandoned factory.
Instead of waiting for someone to come to your door, it’s better to strike first!
Nick signaled Shiraishi to get ready to fight, and he quietly approached the pre-set simple trap, hoping to give the intruder a surprise.
Shiraishi placed the rosewood Gundam sculpture in a relatively secluded location and ensured that it would not be damaged.
When they heard footsteps approaching from outside, their hearts could not help but accelerate.
Nick hid aside.
The left hand holds a sharpened wooden stick, which is one of the best self-defense tools in such crude conditions, and the right hand holds a silenced pistol.
The door was flung open.
Not all of the eight heavily armed men broke in, but three took the lead.
Obviously, this is a sufficient sense of vigilance to avoid being taken over.
They are obviously not ordinary patrol members, but more like a well-trained squad, definitely considered elite in this Golden Triangle area.
Shiraishi and Nick Horton weren't sure who this person was.
All they knew was that this group of people was armed and it didn't matter whether they were good or bad.
They dare not risk their lives.
You can only assume that the opponent is the enemy.
So, the moment these people stepped into the room, Nick decisively activated the trap.
He didn't hesitate.
In an instant, a burst of small metal fragments were ejected, hitting the eyes and faces of the three people, causing them to temporarily lose their vision and balance.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shiraishi and Nick acted quickly.
Shiraishi used his fat but still nimble agility to quickly go around the side of the enemy, trying to attack from behind.
Nick, on the other hand, immediately faced the enemy closest to him.
Shiraishi shot without hesitation. Quickly and accurately kill the guy behind.
Nick Horton put a gun into the face of the man in the front and pulled the trigger. The sharpened stick in his other hand was inserted straight into the chest of the man in the middle.
The battle is about to start and end in an instant.
The two people at the front and at the back fell to the ground and were instantly killed by a sudden sneak attack.
The man in the middle was just stabbed in the chest.
Although he was in great pain, he did not die immediately.
Before Shiraishi fired the last shot, he pulled the trigger without hesitation and swept the shuttle.
Although the bullet strayed too far and was not accurate.
But the shuttle before death made a huge noise in an instant, and the eight armed men waiting outside immediately understood that something was wrong.
They raised their guns and shot without hesitation.
Although it does not carry heavy firepower.
But the firepower of several automatic guns is also quite powerful.
It was deafening for a moment, and many bullets penetrated the iron door of the abandoned factory building and entered.
In this critical moment.
While dodging for cover, Shiraishi shouted loudly: "Nick, act according to the plan immediately!"
After saying that, he put on the gas mask and took out a small bottle.
It contains a special powder.
This powder was researched by himself. It can produce a large amount of smoke in a short period of time and has a certain degree of anesthesia and hallucinogenic effects.
Nick understood and immediately put on a gas mask, took out seven or eight small bottles, pointed them outside and threw the smoke bomb in.
Shiraishi threw two in the room.
Moments later, the entire room was filled with thick white smoke, reducing visibility to almost zero.
Thick fog also began to spread outside.
The five living armed men immediately slowed down the firepower output.
Taking advantage of this chaotic opportunity, the two quickly grabbed their belongings and rushed out of the factory.
Outside.
They continued to move along the route they had planned in advance after coming to Anzhai, paying attention to the movements around them as they ran.
There was a car with armed men outside.
The off-road vehicle stood out in the dim light.
This is a medium-sized four-wheel drive off-road vehicle. Its appearance is somewhat similar to the classic Toyota Land Cruiser or Jeep Grand Cherokee, but it has undergone some obvious modifications.
A sturdy luggage rack was added to the roof, on which were stacked some extra fuel cans and gear boxes, as well as what looked like an emergency kit.
Fenders are also installed around the body to protect the vehicle from minor impacts.
All four tires are large, reinforced off-road tires with deep tread that are ideal for driving on rough terrain. The tires were stained with mud and gravel, showing that the car had seen quite a rough ride.
It would be great to drive this car.
But considering that picking the lock quickly will take some time, they can't waste any time now.
At the same time, there may also be a tracking device on the car, and the target of the car is relatively large. And the car itself is just a modified car, not a truly sturdy and bulletproof military vehicle.
So you can't drive away.
But consider that these people may also drive to catch up.
therefore.
Between this electric light and flint.
Without hesitation, Shiraishi threw a handful of the special solvent he carried at the four tires of the car, damaging the tires to the point where it was impossible to drive again.
He can't open it.
Don’t even think about it!
During the few seconds he was doing this, he suddenly heard Nick Holden next to him scream in pain.
Shiraishi looked over subconsciously.
I saw Nick Holden’s thigh pants suddenly stained red with blood.
"It's okay, keep running!"
Nick Holden gritted his teeth in the face of Shiraishi's eyes, and after roughly tying a bandage to stop the bleeding, he took the lead and ran away.
The effect of the smoke bombs won't last long, and they need to find their next hiding place as soon as possible.
While escaping, Shiraishi and Nick heard shouts and gunfire from behind.
Apparently the armed men had reacted, put on gas masks to reduce the effect of the chemical fog, and were now trying to catch up with them.
However, with the familiarity of the terrain, preparation in advance, and some time delayed by smoke bombs. Even though Nick Horton suffered a thigh injury, they managed to get rid of their pursuers.
and eventually found a relatively safe location.
It was the entrance to an abandoned mine.
It's not that I can't endure the fatigue and continue to escape.
The problem is that Nick Horton was seriously injured in the battle just now.
The bullet went straight through his thigh.
Although the major artery was not hit, it was definitely not a minor injury.
They need to stop immediately to check for injuries.
After entering the mine, they quickly found a hidden corner.
Shiraishi skillfully used the first aid supplies in his backpack to stop bleeding and disinfect Nick Horton.
Simply handle it in a timely manner.
Apart from his pale face at the moment, Nick Holden didn't have much of a problem.
but.
It is absolutely impossible to continue running for the time being.
The two sat here and started discussing with each other.
"Hiss... we still have to walk a long way to reach the safe zone." Nick gasped, "But at least now we have time to breathe."
Feeling Shiraishi's drastic movements in his eagerness to deal with the injury, Nick Holden couldn't help but take a breath while speaking.
Even with the anesthesia, he could feel waves of phantom pain.
Shiraishi nodded: "Yes, we definitely can't stay here for long. We need to use this time to plan the next route."
The medical movements on his hands continued.
But he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Hiding here is just a temporary solution.
Although there were many misleading traces left on the road, and the group of guys were messed up by the chemical fumes, they still didn't go far here after all.
Those five people might not find them, or they might spot them quickly.
They can stay here until tomorrow morning at most, and then they must move to another place immediately.
Considering Nick Horton’s current injury.
It seems that I will have to go nearby to get a car that can be driven after a while.
They didn't drive before, just because the driving target was too big. The two of them preferred to blend in with the fleeing ordinary people after some disguise.
But now...
Nick Horton's leg injury undoubtedly makes the current situation a little worse.
if you can.
Baishi naturally wanted to contact Chen Yun.
In his current heart, Chen Yun should probably be the most reliable.
but……
Looking at the Rosewood Gundam beside him that he was still carrying despite running for his life, Shiraishi gave up such an idea for the time being.
if you can.
He wanted to try not to disturb Chen Yun as much as possible.
Even if it reaches the point where I must disturb you.
He believed that the rosewood Gundam that Chen Yun gave him before would not disappoint him.
Now, take a break.
Hope nothing happens again.
