Chapter 352 - 352: New Mission (3)
“Zi zi zi —!” Wolf stood at the edge of the well and took out his walkie-talkie to quickly update his teammates.
“The well is safe!”
Soon, the Hound’s voice was heard. At the same time, a beam of light rose from the bottom and sent two signals to the top.
“Very good!”
Wolf nodded and surveyed the area, “Red Pepper, you stay up here, the rest follow me down…”
“Why should I be the one staying up here?!” Red Pepper protested, pointing to one of the team members, “Let Skinny Monkey stay, he’s the weakest!”
Wolf didn’t insist and agreed, “Skinny Monkey stays here and the rest come down with me!”
“Yes!”
Soon, all nine members of the War Wolf Squad descended through the shaft, leaving only one person on the surface to watch over the equipment.
“Zzz— Skinny Monkey, report the surface situation, over.”
“Zzz— Received, Skinny Monkey. Everything’s normal on the ground, over.” Skinny Monkey heard gunfire over the radio and anxiously inquired about the situation.
“Zzz— Ha-ha, Net Bug is teasing Hot Pepper, and he almost got shot…”
Skinny Monkey couldn’t help but smile. Just as he was about to continue chatting with his teammates, suddenly, a burst of intense gunfire came through the radio.
“Zzz— What’s happening, what’s going on?!” Skinny Monkey asked in panic.
But on the other end of the radio, the gunfire continued without response. After a while, someone finally replied:
“We’re under attack, it’s a monster, a soldier got captured…”
“What?!” Skinny Monkey was stunned and about to ask more when gunfire erupted again over the radio.
“Hello, hello, what’s actually happening?!”
“Zzz— Cover fire—”
“Zzz– Help me— ”
A chaotic mix of voices came through, making Skinny Monkey jump in anxiety.
But no matter what he said, no one responded. As time went on, the intermittent voices over the radio gradually faded, leaving only the sound of static.
“Damn it!”
Skinny Monkey pounded the walls of the fortress in frustration, standing at the edge of the shaft, torn.
“The captain’s order was to stay here…”
“But they…”
After hesitating for a moment, he steeled his gaze, checked his equipment, and then attached the hook, descending down the rope.
Half an hour later, the ground in the distance trembled.
“Stop the car!”
At a hundred meters from the fallout shelter, Zhao Yu ordered to stop.
His vision was sharp and from a distance, he spotted two black weapon cases outside the door.
“Has someone been here?!”
He surveyed the surroundings and finding no signs of an ambush, ordered the team to move forward again.
More than ten off-road vehicles stopped around the gate, encircling it.
“Check this place!”
Zhao Yu didn’t rush to get out of the car but instructed his soldiers to go down and inspect.
“Report, it’s safe!”
“Report, the shelter’s main door is open…”
Zhao Yu entered and came to the shaft that the soldiers mentioned, indeed finding a wire rope device fixed to the ground.
Besides, he also found several cigarette butts nearby. The ashes on the ground indicated that the smoker had left not long ago.
“Did someone go down before we arrived?”
Zhao Yu stroked his chin, thinking that someone must have arrived earlier and opened the door.
Regardless, he had to go down; after all, it was his mission.
“five of you stay here…”
Zhao Yu left five people behind, issuing orders in advance that no living creature was allowed to come near, or it would be killed without mercy.
Additionally, if any creature other than them came up from the shaft, they were also to be eliminated.
After making all the necessary preparations and instructions, Zhao Yu then arranged for the rest of the soldiers to go down the shaft..
