In Bogota, on an apartment building one kilometer across from Embassy Street, eight SEALs in urban camouflage were squatting on the roof. One of the snipers set up the sniper rifle in his hand, and another soldier opened the laptop he carried with him and released the quad-rotor drone in his backpack.
"Do you think they will show up?" With the crosshair aimed at the Xin Embassy, the man in a beret moved his fingers and grinned.
Outside the walls of the Xin Embassy in Colombia, Colombian soldiers armed with live ammunition had surrounded the entire embassy. Not even a fly could fly in, let alone a few living people. However, everyone here knew very well that this level of vigilance could stop living people, but it couldn't stop the invisible "ghosts".
Even so, trying to rescue someone from under the nose of a reinforced company was not an easy task.
Although the combat effectiveness of the Colombian government army was weak, it was the security company of the Presidential Palace stationed on Embassy Street. Although there was no difference in their clothes, these people were the elites of the army. They were certainly not comparable to the SEALs, but by the standards of Third World countries, they were quite good.
"They will definitely show up." Jonathan adjusted the HK416 in his hand and said emotionlessly, "Forbearance is not their style, or not their boss's style."
As a derivative of the carbine M4, the HK416 was undoubtedly much better than its predecessor, the M4, in terms of performance. Not only did it solve the problem that the gunpowder gas of the M4 was easily transmitted to the gun, but it could even shoot underwater.
In addition, cutting-edge individual equipment such as heartbeat sensors, infrared thermal imaging, nano-ceramic bulletproof vests, and special armor-piercing bullets armed the SEALs from their toes to their teeth. Even a piece of equipment that was still in the experimental stage designed by the Advanced Project Research Bureau of the UA Department of Defense for Ghost Agents was carried by them.
For this operation, the UA put in a lot of effort.
The Xin delegation that fled was caught by the UA SEALs, and the Celestial Trade agent was killed on the spot …
Jonathan felt excited just thinking about what the headlines of the major newspapers would write tomorrow.
From the beginning, the CIB pressured the Colombian government to restrict the Xin delegation from leaving the country, which was a trap for Celestial Trade.
When the curtains of a room in the Xin Embassy were suddenly closed, the man on the edge of the roof narrowed his eyes and moved the scope closer. The crosshair was aimed at the front door of the Xin Embassy.
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
The air seemed to become much colder in an instant. White mist gradually condensed in the air, and soon, the entire city of Bogota was shrouded in it. The thick white fog created a veil in front of everyone, and their visibility quickly dropped to less than ten meters.
"Sh * t!" The sniper cursed as he got up from the ground and put away his rifle.
In this kind of weather, sniper rifles were obviously useless.
"I've seen the weather forecast. It should be sunny today." SEAL, who had been fiddling with the notebook, closed it and put it back in his backpack. "If the weather forecast is not wrong, then there is something fishy about it."
"Weather weapon?"
"Maybe, maybe not."
As he listened to the discussion of his comrades, Jonathan narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky. He felt the coolness at the tip of his nose, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.
Intuition told him that this fog was not a coincidence.
Without time to hesitate, he pressed on the tactical helmet and ordered.
"Attention, all teams, immediately enter combat position. The battle begins."
At this moment, a series of loud explosions came from the direction of the suburbs.
The flashing flames and the black smoke that seemed to be solid could be vaguely seen even through the thick fog.
As if they noticed the abnormality outside the city, the sirens on the street rang loudly, and vehicles and pedestrians rushed to the Xicheng District. In the face of the threat of war, traffic lights and traffic rules had completely lost their effect, and the entire city was in a mess.
…
Jonathan guessed correctly. This fog was indeed not a coincidence.
Just ten minutes ago, the Seagull-class transport ship that arrived above South America fired hundreds of dry ice bombs at the capital of Colombia. After these dry ice bombs detonated under the clouds, the scattered dry ice quickly covered the entire Cundinamarca Province. Not only did it turn the sunny day into a thick fog, but it even dropped the temperature of the entire area by five to ten degrees!
It was difficult to say how long this fog would last, but it was enough to cover the evacuation of the Xin delegation.
Just as the fog rose, Lilith made her move.
The silver metal projectiles, under the action of the electromagnetic force field, turned into a frenzied storm and instantly reaped more than a dozen lives.
After recovering from the shock, the Colombian soldiers immediately raised the rifles in their hands. However, just as they were about to fight back, Lilith had already moved to the next position under the cover of the fog. She waved the silver bullets at her fingertips.
"Sh * t! I'm shot! "
"He's over there! Fire! Fire! "
"AHHHHH!"
Screams sounded one after another, and blood bloomed on the foggy street.
There was no time to avoid accidental damage. The cannon on top of the armored vehicle spat out flames, but soon after a flash of silver light, the flames at the muzzle were extinguished.
Using the chaos caused by Lilith, the Ghost Agents blew up the wall of the embassy and took Zhang Yaping and other key members of the Xin delegation to break through the encirclement of the Colombian government soldiers.
"This is the Xin Embassy! We're under attack! Request support … DAMMIT! There's no signal. " The officer sitting in another armored vehicle fiercely smashed the walkie-talkie on the ground. His eyes were bloodshot.
Obviously, the Xin people detonated the EMP, and all unprotected electronic equipment was burned.
Communication was lost. In the face of an invisible opponent, the soldiers of the guard company didn't even know where and who the enemy was, let alone resist. Although there were gunshots, all the people on the ground were their own people.
He could only pray that the gunshots on the embassy street could attract the attention of the local garrison and police, and reinforcements would arrive earlier.
However, his prayer was destined to be just an extravagant hope.
Just as Lilith made her move, FARC responded to Jiang Chen's request and dispatched the guerrillas lurking in the province of Cundinamarca. In just five minutes, they used mortars to dump hundreds of shells on the suburbs of Bogota.
Although these shells did not fall on the heads of the Colombian military and police, it caused considerable panic in Bogota. Now half of the city's traffic was paralyzed, the city's military and police were in a state of high tension, and all attention was directed outside the city. How could they notice the movement on the embassy street?
After killing two soldiers who were blocking the way, Zhu Yu and the other three "ghosts" covered Zhang Yaping and the other four members of the delegation as they moved out of Embassy Street and rushed into the parking lot of a mall.
At the entrance of the parking lot, four modified black cars were waiting there.
The group quickly got into the cars, and soon the four cars left the parking lot and headed to the western suburbs of Bogota in four different directions.
Zhu Yu fastened the seat belt, put away the rifle, and pressed the headset.
"We have left the embassy street and are heading to the boarding point immediately!"
"Roger that." Raising her hand, a silver bullet pierced through the soldier who was aiming at her. Wearing a mask, Lilith retrieved the silver droplets that scattered on the ground, ignored the net of firepower, and rushed into the fog-covered alley.
With their eyes fixed on the alley entrance, the remaining soldiers struggled for a moment, but in the end, they did not chase after her.
There was only one life, and everyone was born from their parents.
They wouldn't frown if they were asked to fight against the rebels, but in the face of a monster that could kill people with a flick of her finger, it was already a testament to their military uniform that they could stand here instead of running away …
