NOVEL NEXT Chapter 241: Sudden Turn of Events (Part 3)
"Can't win! Retreat!"
The Scout shouted desperately.
The next second.
"Bang!"
Gunfire sounded, a bullet hit his head directly.
Shattered.
Death came unexpectedly, and Lin Yu's eyes widened with anger.
Just a few seconds ago, his companion was standing alive right in front of him.
But in those few seconds, he had already become a corpse too worthless even to save!
The overwhelming sense of powerlessness nearly drowned Lin Yu, but at this moment, he had no time to grieve.
Because the gun barrels of the two Mountain City People had already aimed in his direction!
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and accelerated, only to find himself with no retreat.
As he continued outward, the space became wider.
In front of these quick-moving, highly reactive Mountain City People, he had no chance of escaping the strike of ranged weapons.
Only one way left.
Back into the tunnel!
The Scout's death wasn't in vain; he diverted the Mountain City People's attention, exposing a path between them that could be breached.
Can I make it?
Lin Yu suddenly turned.
He had no other options.
Let's see who's faster!
His figure shot out like a bullet, gunshots rang out behind Lin Yu.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang----"
Hot bullets grazed past him, the closest even slicing his shoulder!
But he finally pierced through the weak line the Mountain City People formed, breaking through into the depths of the tunnel.
Made it!
Their speed was no greater!
Not much different than mine!
Lin Yu's confidence soared, he delved deeper into the tunnel.
His thinking was simple.
This tunnel couldn't be straight and wide open.
It would definitely have twists and changes in terrain.
If he could use the terrain well, maybe he could turn the tables and eliminate the two Mountain City People at the right moment!
The plan is just that simple!
Lin Yu rushed forward, the footsteps behind him also followed closely.
Adrenaline surged to the extreme, Lin Yu's vision became markedly clearer.
After sprinting for several seconds, the sunlight completely disappeared.
But shortly ahead, there was faint light.
Under the light were looming shadows.
Cover.
That's it.
Lin Yu took a deep breath.
The time for counterattack was nearing.
He accelerated again, rushing towards the light.
Less than a hundred meters passed in a flash, Lin Yu reached the front of the shadows.
----But, upon seeing the staggered silhouettes clearly, he suddenly halted.
It's over.
This is no cover.
These are people.
Mountain City People!
Lin Yu's hair stood on end.
He was almost prepared to meet death.
But soon he realized, these people had no reaction.
They seemed to be in some kind of dormant state.
What the hell is this?!
----Forget it!
Lin Yu didn't hesitate at all, reaching out to grab the rifle from one of the Mountain City People.
It was just a simple, ordinary rifle.
Maybe just a bigger caliber.
Pull the bolt, chamber a round, all in one go.
Lin Yu aimed at the tunnel exit, and as the forms of the two pursuing Mountain City People appeared, he pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Four bullets fired in succession, one enemy dropped.
Then, Lin Yu switched aim, enduring the burns of that strange weapon, he pulled the trigger at the other person.
"Bang bang bang bang----"
The impact of the bullets twisted the second enemy's head nearly 90 degrees backward, he fell on his back, his weapon dropping along.
But Lin Yu didn't lower his guard.
He calmly stepped forward, aiming at the enemy who clearly wasn't dead, fired a finishing shot.
"Bang bang bang bang----"
Not until the bullets penetrated the two's soft armor, and until blood oozed from the armor seams, did Lin Yu finally stop.
Narrow escape.
Lin Yu gasped heavily, his body soft as if collapsing, kneeling to the ground.
Just two people.
Yet they pushed him to the brink.
These Mountain City People...
Are truly formidable foes!
Those behind...
Need to be dealt with too!
Lin Yu immediately stood up, but just as he turned, a slight sound of collision suddenly occurred.
He looked towards the vague silhouettes.
And among the originally "dormant" Mountain City People, two...
Opened their eyes.
