He looked up at the sky, seeing multiple black dots turning into streaking teors, hurtling toward their location!
"Move aside! It’s a mortar!"
Bill Hawke shouted desperately, then lunged towards a nearby rock.
In the next second, dozens of shells landed precisely around the crowd, exploding with a deafening roar, the mortars erupting with blinding flas.
The ard personnel brought by Bill Hawke were montarily stunned by the ferocious barrage, suffering heavy casualties.
Lang Liefeng was dumbfounded; this kind of mortars’ overwhelming strike—their sand bandits attacking ard convoys had never encountered mortar fire before!
Where did these mortars co from?!
With his extensive combat experience, Bill Hawke, having evaded the first wave of shelling, imdiately identified the mortar position by the trajectory of the bombing.
As his gaze shifted over, sure enough, he saw black figures densely packed into an ard force on the distant dunes.
"It’s the Apocalypse Society! Open fire!"
A thunderous yell erupted from Bill Hawke’s throat, and hearing this, the ard personnel of the convoy imdiately organized a firing assault.
They decisively launched a counterattack at the ard personnel in the distance!
...
Ti rewinds to a short while earlier.
Bode had already led his people to the eastern direction where the sand bandits resided. On the dunes, where everyone could be hidden, Bode ordered his personnel to spread out, surrounding all mbers of the security team.
They set up watchposts around to monitor every move of the sand bandit encampnt below.
At the sa ti, once the personnel dispersed, they beca one firepower point after another.
Once they saw the Apocalypse Society mbers making contact with the sand bandits, the security team could catch them off guard.
Bode and his team had barely settled into position when they saw a group of ard personnel slowly approaching the sand bandit encampnt.
"Sir! There’s an ard formation approaching!"
Upon hearing Erin’s reply, Bode swiftly raised the binoculars to gaze into the distance.
Indeed, he saw a well-equipped ard formation making contact with the sand bandits, and their leader seed to be conversing with the leader of the bandits.
Bode squinted, carefully scrutinizing the opponent’s military equipnt, secretly feeling alard.
Is this the Apocalypse Society? Could they have such sophisticated equipnt?
All equipped with fully automatic rifles, traces of RPG rockets, and even wearing bulletproof vests.
No matter how it looked, it didn’t seem like the kind of equipnt a cult like the Apocalypse Society would have.
But the intelligence they received indicated that the Apocalypse Society intended to make contact with the sand bandits to escape this place.
If not people from the Apocalypse Society, who else could they be?
As Bode’s heart was filled with suspicion, the question from his subordinate reached his ears: "Sir, should we open fire?"
"No rush, the identity of these people is still unresolved. Firing rashly would be too reckless." An indescribable feeling welled up in Bode’s heart, his intuition telling him not to open fire now. With that sophisticated equipnt, rashly firing would undoubtedly cause the security team trendous losses.
The radio also carried Liu San’s gentle voice: "Sir, sothing seems off.
Are these people from the Apocalypse Society? Their equipnt is top-notch, comparable to our security team’s gear.
Where did these cultists from the Apocalypse Society get such fine equipnt?"
Erin’s pupils contracted under the sunlight, her snake-like eyes gradually changing. Listening to Liu San, she flicked her forked tongue and said: "Don’t forget, there are two big figures from the Apocalypse Society here. I feel they are indeed from the Apocalypse Society, and these well-equipped ard forces are here to protect the two important figures of the Apocalypse Society.
Sir, if we don’t open fire now, when they enter the sand bandit’s encampnt, it will be even harder to fight."
There was so truth in Erin’s words; the major figures of the Apocalypse Society were deserving of such formidable ard personnel for protection.
Yet, an ominous feeling lingered in Bode’s heart. Facing the questioning eyes of his subordinates, Bode waved his hand and said: "Hold on, don’t fire yet. Their identity isn’t confird; if a misunderstanding occurs, firing impulsively could lead to a chain reaction..."
Bode was not the reckless type. Without confirming the opponent’s identity, he didn’t want to fire recklessly.
If the ard personnel below weren’t from the Apocalypse Society, the security team’s rash firing could invite unnecessary trouble!
To be the captain of the security team, Bode had to have rational thinking and wouldn’t let short-term interests and achievents cloud his judgnt.
However, Bode didn’t notice the few crows circling in the sky that clearly heard his conversation with his subordinates.
The crows let out a screech, seemingly displeased with Bode’s hesitance to attack.
Though eager to fire and catch them off guard, Erin held back upon hearing Bode’s decision.
The team continued to lie in wait, watching.
Bode saw the sand bandit leader and the ard group’s leader continuously conversing, and his sense of uncertainty deepened.
Bode’s intuition told him there was definitely sothing off below; the situation was by no ans as straightforward as he thought.
Bode imdiately ordered seriously: "Nobody fire without my command. Sothing isn’t right—I suspect the people below aren’t from the Apocalypse Society at all..."
Just as Bode finished his words, a sudden bombardnt rang out from afar behind him, jolting Bode as he swiftly looked up, his chanical eye contracting.
