Chapter 1090: Risking It All to Save Lives
Zhou Gang, who was holding his ground on the hillside awaiting reinforcements, was firing back frantically, suppressing the enemies charging from the front. Yet, he was also a prime target and nearly got hit several times. Unfortunately, not everyone around him was as lucky, losing nearly half their numbers in just a few minutes. At this rate, they'd be wiped out in less than ten minutes.
Through his earpiece, Zhou Gang heard Luo Zheng's battle cry, realizing that reinforcements had arrived. Overjoyed, he rallied, shouting, "Brothers, hit them hard! Reinforcements are here." With that, he grabbed the weapon of a fallen tribal fighter beside him and started vigorously shooting at the enemies charging uphill.
The tribal fighters around him couldn't understand Zhou Gang's words but saw his sudden burst of energy. They, too, howled and fired back fiercely. They soon noticed someone ambushing the enemy from behind, evidently reinforcements. Their spirits soared, and with renewed energy, they fired back, pushing the attacking enemies back once more.
Behind enemy lines, Luo Zheng was charging aggressively, taking out three enemies with three precise shots from his sniper rifle. But the enemies soon became alert, and some quickly turned their guns to counterattack. At this moment, Lan Xue, Ghost Hand, and Mountain Eagle rushed forward, forming a triangular offensive formation with Luo Zheng as the spearhead, and started accurately killing the enemies on the mountainside ahead.
The attacking enemies were thrown into disarray, splitting more than half their forces to block the reinforcements. Utilizing the surrounding trees for cover, both sides exchanged fire, neither able to overpower the other swiftly. Luo Zheng fired a shot, finding no better opportunity. Remembering that Zhou Gang and others still faced strong enemy attacks elsewhere, with the risk of annihilation looming, he quickly slung his sniper rifle over his back and took up his M4 rifle hanging on his chest.
"Cover me!" Luo Zheng roared, his eyes fierce, charging aggressively forward.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked but quickly roused themselves, shooting any enemy daring to expose themselves to suppress their fire. The enemies were not easy prey either, quickly dispersing and counter-attacking bravely. Bullets rained towards Luo Zheng like a storm.
Luo Zheng sprinted a few steps like a hunting leopard, suddenly halting and darting two meters sideways. He rolled to the ground, ending in a half-kneeling position, aimed his M4 rifle at an enemy he had marked, and swiftly pulled the trigger.
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" A three-round burst whistled out in a triangular formation, imbued with Luo Zheng's murderous intent and anxiety, slicing through the void, forming three deadly shockwaves. One bullet pierced the target's forehead, exiting the back of their head, sending fragments of skull flying along with red and white matter.
After the shot, Luo Zheng didn't pause or glance at his handiwork. Kicking off forcefully, he shot out like a cannonball to the side, full of battle intent and murderous aura. He sprinted a dozen meters to the back of a large tree. Stabilizing himself from the strong impact, Luo Zheng immediately fired another three-round burst at a target.
"Ah—" The target, hit in the chest, screamed in agony and fell dead.
Luo Zheng's bold tactics startled the enemy, causing them to turn their guns on him in a furious sweep, forming a death net of bullets that made it difficult for Luo Zheng to retaliate from behind the tree.
"Kill!" The sight of Luo Zheng's fighting spurred Lan Xue and the others into a fervor. Seeing the enemies focused on Luo Zheng, they dashed out of cover like fierce tigers. Their guns, now all M4 rifles taken from the enemy, switched to three-round bursts for aggressive charges.
Lan Xue took the lead, agile as a lynx running through the forest, hard to lock onto by the naked eye. Her M4 was positioned at her shoulder, persistently picking off every visible target. Concerned for Luo Zheng's safety, Lan Xue unleashed her full sniping prowess.
Ghost Hand and Mountain Eagle were not to be outdone, flanking Lan Xue, sprinting and roaring with a killing aura akin to roaring tigers. They continuously fired at exposed enemy positions, suppressing them to cover Lan Xue's assault. Following them were Liu Xun, Zhang Bin, Wu Yuan, and Meng Zhu, in a line, charging fiercely forward, nothing else mattering.
The sudden offensive by Lan Xue and the others threw the enemy into chaos with their reckless, life-disregarding tactics, infuriating them. They redirected their gunfire, sweeping at Lan Xue and her team, who quickly evaded. With no more suppressive fire on him, Luo Zheng, with a face like iron, roared angrily, kicked off fiercely, and charged forward, roaring and shooting passionately, as if the War God had descended.
"Kill!" Ghost Hand and others, seeing Luo Zheng's all-out charge, roared and followed suit.
Luo Zheng led the charge, using speed and cover from surrounding trees to approach the enemy swiftly. Soon, the distance between friends and foes was less than ten meters. Without stopping, he darted from one tree's cover to another, rolling forward quickly, continuously shooting and driving the enemy back.
Soon, Luo Zheng collided with a large tree and stopped. Twisting his body, he got up and hid behind it, narrowly evading a burst of bullets thudding into the tree trunk. Luo Zheng remained still, and as soon as the gunfire stopped, he fiercely burst forth from the other side, roaring as he dashed towards a target.
This target was shocked, unprepared for Luo Zheng's brazen charge despite exposing himself. Startled, he aimed at Luo Zheng to shoot, but Luo Zheng's strange body movements in midair thwarted the aim. When the enemy realized it was too late, he shouted angrily, lifting his gun to smash at Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng, anticipating this move, executed a sudden sliding tackle, sweeping his legs to knock the target down. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed someone aiming at him, feeling a chill of fear. He quickly fell, grabbed the downed enemy, and rolled, using their body as a shield. Bullets rained down on them, hitting the ground and the enemy.
With just over ten meters, the Bullet-Resistant Vest on the adversary's body was ineffective, pierced directly. However, the vest somewhat mitigated the impact; bullets stayed within the enemy without passing through to harm Luo Zheng. He curled his legs, kicked, sending the enemy's corpse flying, and sprung back to his feet, shocked as another enemy swept fire at him. Startled, he dove to the side, firing his weapon.
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" A triangular burst of bullets shot out, downing the sneaking enemy.
"Watch out." Just as Luo Zheng was about to rise, he heard an urgent roar, so shocking him that he instinctively lunged forward, rolling like lightning. A streak of bullets followed closely, missing him by merely half a foot. A moment's hesitation would have been fatal.
"Kill!" Luo Zheng, furious, roared mightily, akin to a tiger's roar in the forest, sweeping forward with boundless murderous intent.
