Chapter 1304: Chapter 1302: The Enraged Snake King
Piao Xue leaned against a big tree to rest, her face full of exhaustion, and her whole body covered in scars. So scars had already scabbed over, while others were still oozing blood.
Disheveled, haggard, fatigued, desperate.
She had already done her best. If it were just her, she was confident she could escape from the Lesotho Special Forces. In fact, if Lu Qi hadn’t carelessly left a trace, it would have taken the Lesotho Special Forces at least another half a month to find their trail.
But she couldn’t just leave Lu Qi and escape alone.
She didn’t want to run anymore either. Nearly twenty days of fleeing had exhausted her, and the person she had always firmly believed in had not appeared.
She was very tired now.
But even if she had to die, she would take a few with her.
"Oh no, I stepped on a mine!"
A Special Forces Soldier in camouflage suddenly froze.
For an ordinary soldier, they would likely have already been blown to pieces by the mine by now. Only highly trained special forces could have such keen Perception and reaction speed.
First, it’s very difficult to hear the sound of a mine being stepped on amidst all the noise, and then to be able to stop moving quickly after realizing you’ve stepped on a mine isn’t sothing ordinary people can do.
"Poison Stings, do you need help?"
"You all continue moving forward. This is a standard-issue mine carried by our soldiers. I just need five minutes to disarm it."
The other team mbers continued forward as Poison Stings pulled out the military knife strapped to his thigh and slowly began to dig out the dirt around the mine.
After quickly disarming the mine, Poison Stings was about to move his foot but instinctively dug an extra half an inch down.
To his surprise, there was another mine buried underneath the first one!
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Poison Stings. This wasn’t a mine buried by the Lesotho soldiers, but one set by a female spy.
It seed the opponent was also skilled in Trick Mine tactics. It was fortunate that soone as knowledgeable in Trick Mines as Poison Stings had stepped on this mine. If it had been soone else who disard the first mine, they would never have imagined there could be another mine below. Once they lifted their foot, they would have been blown to fragnts instantly!
Poison Stings felt a sense of respect. When he learned the opponent had taken down over eighty elite soldiers in the forest, he initially felt disdain. Only now did he understand the opponent was every bit his equal as a Special Forces Soldier.
Cautiously disarming the second mine, Poison Stings smiled slightly, relieved that he had discovered it. It ant the opponent wasn’t much more skilled than him.
Poison Stings put away the knife and lifted his foot.
"Ding!"
A sound that made Poison Stings’ skin crawl echoed.
His eyes bulged out as if they were about to leap from their sockets.
Given Poison Stings’ hearing, he knew this was the sound of a mine being activated.
As it turned out, there was a third mine buried beneath the second!
Unfortunately, Poison Stings had no chance to disarm that third mine.
Boom!
Poison Stings’ body instantly blew apart, turning into chunks of flesh.
In the final mont of life, Poison Stings finally realized that he had underestimated the opponent’s understanding of Trick Mines. Their skill far exceeded his!
Most people only bury one mine. Only a Trick Mine master would bury another mine beneath the first to catch you off guard with a second mine after you think you’ve disard the first!
But burying three mines could only be described as the work of a Trick Mine expert, specialized in dealing with even master trickers!
Poison Stings wasn’t unjustly killed!
The other team mbers had barely gotten a kiloter away before hearing the mine explosion.
They all looked at each other in disbelief.
Poison Stings was the most skilled in handling mines within the Special Forces, yet he had set off the mine.
Calling out to Poison Stings via communicator yielded no response—he was clearly dead.
"Everyone, be careful."
After losing a team mber, all traces of disdain vanished from the Red Striped Snake team, and they beca highly alert.
Because they knew they were facing a Super Special Forces Soldier every bit their equal!
Clang!
Despite the Red Striped Snake team’s extre caution, soone still accidentally triggered a trap set by Piao Xue.
This was an extrely simple trap, with a wire made from tree bark fiber tied to bullet shells.
Although simple, it was very effective. The bullet shell’s golden yellow is a natural camouflage color, extrely hard to spot among dry branches and leaves.
"Watch out!"
The team mber nad Wen Feng hurriedly warned because he realized this simple bullet-trap wasn’t just for an alarm.
There were six bullet casings, in pairs, forming an equilateral triangle in three directions.
This was a positioning trap!
It determined the intruder’s precise location through the different sounds from three directions.
Achieving this kind of positioning is extrely challenging, even for soone known for exceptional hearing like Wen Feng. But since the opponent set such a trap, it ant they had the capability.
Thud!
As Wen Feng finished speaking, an arrow pierced the chest of the team mber who triggered the trap.
The arrow, made of wood, only penetrated an inch and a half into the body, but it severed the aorta perfectly, leading to death from blood loss within a minute.
Wen Feng was stunned, the opponent’s auditory skills were terrifyingly sharp. Using such rudintary thods to set up a positioning trap to locate a target was challenging enough, but the opponent had accurately shot the arrow into Wild Wolf’s heart.
"Wild Wolf!"
The Red Striped Snake Special Forces mbers’ eyes were bloodshot, losing two team mbers in just half an hour.
This unit had participated in many wars and had survived countless life-or-death situations. Yet today, just pursuing an unidentified female spy had cost them two team mbers.
This loss was unbearable for the Red Striped Snake Special Forces, and it was a colossal humiliation.
"Woman, I will capture you and then skin you alive!" Snake King, the captain of the Red Striped Snake Special Forces, glared with bloodshot eyes.
After taking down one team mber, Piao Xue imdiately left. A sneak attack could only be used once; there were nine team mbers left, each no weaker than a Dragon Group Warrior!
She managed to take down two due to their underestimation and because her hearing had beco exceptionally sharp after losing her sight. But in a direct confrontation, she had no confidence in defeating any of the Red Striped Snake mbers.
