Dragon's Mouth Mine.
Three kilometers below the surface.
This was an unknown underground section of the river.
"Is everything ready?" The tall man with crocodile-like skin was the leader of the team. He gathered all the participating subordinates. "If you are ready, then we will do the last proofreading. Please note that we only have half an hour to retreat. Please retreat to a safe place as soon as possible. If any of you get lost in the mine, then don't blame me for not reminding you! "
"Half an hour is enough!" The wild boar man with a head full of dirty braids smiled, revealing his white teeth. In fact, other than his teeth and the whites of his eyes, there was no other color on his body.
"Naive. We are installing super big firecrackers. Once they explode, there will be danger within a kilometer!" The skinny blonde man snorted coldly.
"Can't we walk a kilometer?" The wild boar man shook his fingers.
"The mine was secretly dug by us. It avoids the underground water and is winding. If we go the wrong way, we won't be able to retreat to the surface in half an hour, let alone escape! If our three super big firecrackers explode, no matter who it is, they will be smashed to pieces! "The skinny man shook his head.
"I can definitely do it. You may be in danger." The wild boar man was quite confident.
"Stop arguing!" Boss Crocodile could not help but scold the two subordinates who quarreled as soon as they met. "Report your situation. The countdown is about to start. Our progress is already slow. If we don't finish, I can't guarantee that the other teams will not explode in the same way!"
"I don't know about the others, but my installation has been completed. The whole process is quite simple. I found a suitable place to explode, and it didn't take much time." The bear-like man waved his hand. "Mission completed!"
"I'm also done." The cobra man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose habitually adjusted his glasses.
"Done." The last person to speak was a giant who was silent.
He was about 2.3 meters tall.
He was taller and thicker than a professional basketball center in the NBA. His legs were like those of an elephant, and his head was especially huge. However, his expression was wooden, like that of a rock man. Since the wild boar man and the skinny man were not very reliable, Boss Crocodile asked his superior to send a companion who could hold down the fort to help. Hence, the Rock Man was sent over. He replaced the wild boar man and the skinny man in installing the super big firecracker, making the latter two members of the guard team responsible for keeping watch.
Apart from the six of them, there were also engineers who specialized in installing the super big firecrackers and soldiers who escorted them throughout the entire process.
There were thirty soldiers in total.
They were all armed to the teeth.
Their equipment was similar to that of the Underworld explorers, but they didn't have to carry a lot of backpacks like Griffon and his companions.
"Based on your professional knowledge, what is the success rate of our explosion?" Boss Crocodile looked at his watch and realized that there was still time, so he asked another professional question.
"I'm afraid it won't be very high, but it will be somewhat effective!" An engineer in his forties answered vaguely.
"It's okay. I'm not a tyrant who kills people easily. Actually, even if you don't tell me, I know that the success rate is very low. However, this is our mission, so let's hope for a miracle! There are too many miracles on Dong Mountain. We might be able to create one! " Boss Crocodile looked at his watch again and pondered. He turned around and nodded to the engineer and the soldiers who escorted the super big firecrackers. "You guys retreat first! Remember, you must be fast. You must retreat to the surface within half an hour! Also, after you retreat to the surface, don't panic and run. We will try our best to delay as much as possible. The more time we have, the higher our success rate and the greater the possibility of creating a miracle! "
"Thank you. We will leave first!" The engineer and the captain of the soldiers nodded and quickly led their subordinates to retreat to the secret tunnel that they had dug secretly. As long as they entered the secret tunnel, they could return to the surface without being noticed.
They didn't want to stay in such a godforsaken place at all.
Only God knew if there would be any Underworld monsters suddenly crawling out of the ground.
Although there weren't that many insects here, it was actually as dangerous as Death Canyon, which was full of insects.
The soldiers and the engineer left.
The six people led by Boss Crocodile continued to stay in place.
After waiting for a while, Boss Crocodile looked at the luminous watch on his wrist and waited patiently for half a minute. He immediately reached out and took out something that looked like a pocket watch and pressed the timer on it.
The timer started and the timer ticked.
The final time was thirty minutes.
In other words …
If Boss Crocodile and the others couldn't pass through the secret tunnel and get out of the surface within thirty minutes, they would die together with the super big firecrackers they had installed.
"I'll give you three minutes. I want you to check whether each of the super big firecrackers is activated on time for the last time!" Boss Crocodile looked at his watch again. The bear-like man and the cobra man flew into the distant darkness like arrows. On the other hand, the giant who looked like a rock man walked forward unhurriedly. When he returned after the inspection, the bear-like man and the cobra man had already returned. However, the Rock Man returned at the designated time. He returned to Boss Crocodile in exactly three minutes, not a minute more or a second less.
The bear-like man was fuming with anger and clenched his fists.
If they didn't fight, it would be a waste of time.
He really wanted to fight with the other party.
The cobra man was expressionless, but a trace of anger flashed in his eyes behind his glasses.
As for the wild boar man and the skinny monkey-man, they had already cursed the rock man a thousand times. If their gazes were swords, the rock man would have been pierced by thousands of swords.
"Yes, I'm excited." The rock man wasted a full three minutes just for this sentence.
"Okay, let's retreat!" Boss Crocodile's eyes twitched. Brother, don't you have a nervous reaction circuit in your nervous system?
"Wait." The rock man suddenly waved his hand.
"What do you want, you piece of sh * t? If you want to die, continue to stay here! "The wild boar man with small braids was going crazy. If you have something to say, can you come back to the surface and talk? That is a super big firecracker. Once it explodes, everyone will turn into powder. What do you want to say at this time?
"Shut up. If you have anything to say, we can talk when we get back to the surface world!" The bear-like man was also angry.
"Go, go, go!" The skinny monkey-man decided to ignore what the rock man said and flew directly to the dark river in the direction of the secret tunnel.
In the next second.
A fist that had been accumulating power for a long time punched out and hit the skinny monkey-man's face heavily.
The skinny monkey-man was sent flying into the air. Before he could fall to the ground, another fist followed up with lightning speed and hit the skinny monkey-man's injured face accurately … This punch shattered the skinny monkey-man's face. Countless muscle fragments, teeth, nose, cheekbones, and so on flew out. When he fell heavily in front of Boss Crocodile and the others, the skinny monkey-man was already seriously injured and on the verge of death.
"There's an enemy." At this time, the rock man slowly said the reason why he stopped his teammate's action.
"You damn bastard!" The wild boar man really wanted to use the world's most vicious and sinister words to curse the rock man. Are you a f * cking teammate or an enemy? Even if you're a scammer, there's no one like you!
However, Boss Crocodile was not in the mood to care whether the rock man was scamming his teammate or not.
He did not even look at the skinny monkey-man.
Because he knew.
The skinny monkey-man was 100% hopeless. There was no point in looking.
He focused all his attention on the enemy who had secretly attacked and killed his teammate!
Enemy.
There were two of them.
One was short and strong like an ox. Just now, he hid in the dark and accumulated his power to attack. With just two punches, he killed one of his agile and capable subordinates. If it was a head-on battle and not a sneak attack, Boss Crocodile believed that this man would be much stronger. However, if he wanted to take down the skinny monkey-man, it would not be so easy. Because agile warriors were different from strength-type warriors. If he could not defeat them, it did not mean that he could not escape.
Unless there was enough space, it was not easy to kill an agile warrior.
In an ambush.
Then the result was the opposite.
A strength-type warrior was not easy to kill in any place. Their strong physique was destined to have a higher endurance and endurance. However, it was not necessarily the case for an agile warrior. As long as they were hit by a fatal blow from the opponent, they could fall to the ground at any time.
The second enemy was a middle-aged man.
He was gentle and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked like a professor appearing on the podium of a university or a well-read scholar.
His face was smiling. His smile was so friendly that it made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
If someone often participated in charity or cared about the news of charity.
Then they would realize that this man in front of them was the famous philanthropist and activist of Dong Mountain, Mr. Liang Xiao.
In the underground mercenary world, Mr. Liang Xiao had another unrefined nickname, the 'Smiling Tiger'. Of course, every underground mercenary who had interacted with the Smiling Tiger would not feel too good about it. In particular, his friendly smile was so huge that it was almost a contrast. It was even more terrifying!
That was because every time Ran Xiao revealed such a smile, it meant that he would use the cruelest and most violent way to deal with his enemies.
"Dear Liang, I didn't expect to see you here!" Boss Crocodile let out a long sigh. As an internationally famous underground mercenary, not only did he know who the Smiling Tiger was, but he had also cooperated with him ten years ago. "Long time no see!"
"Long time no see, Mr. Crocodile!" Liang Xiao chatted as if he was having morning tea with his friends. "How have you been?"
"Pretty good!" Boss Crocodile shook his head. "It would be even better if you could make way for me!"
"We have a lot of time. There's no need to rush." Liang Xiao smiled. "Long time no see. Perhaps we can chat more and deepen our friendship!"
"I don't care who you are or what you want to do. I just want to tell you a piece of sh * t. You'd better kill yourself. Otherwise, Uncle Wild Boar will make you cry and beg me to give you a quick death! " The Wild Boar man with a head full of braids did not know who Liang Xiao was. After all, Liang Xiao had left the underground mercenary world for quite some time. Moreover, even in the underground mercenary world, he was very low-key. Other than his teammates who had cooperated with him, very few people knew about him.
"Can you teach me how to kill myself?" Liang Xiao's smile did not change.
"Newbies nowadays are too rude. They have such low standards. How did they become underground mercenaries?" The strong man was naturally Liang Xiao's loyal follower and right-hand man, Tie Tou.
He shook his head and turned to ask Liang Xiao. "Brother Tiger, can you leave this wild boar to me? I found him quite to my taste! "
Liang Xiao nodded lightly and smiled brightly. "Be careful. He's a genetic warrior who has been injected with the Golden Water. Although it's old, it's still injected with something good. Twenty million dollars for one, and the mortality rate is more than 90%. Don't underestimate its power!"
Tie Tou laughed wildly. "With a high mortality rate, those who are eliminated are not necessarily elites. They might also be scum!"
The Wild Boar man was furious and wanted to rush up to fight.
Boss Crocodile reached out to stop him. He looked at Liang Xiao again. "Dear Liang, for the sake of our good cooperation and friendship, please give us a way out! No one can survive if we fight here. Believe me, none of us will be able to walk out of the ground in the end … Dear Liang, I have no intention of fighting you. If you're willing to give way, I can share my reward with you. Of course, the same goes for them! "
Liang Xiao laughed. "My mission is to keep you here. As long as you're willing to stay, I promise I won't attack you!"
Boss Crocodile's face darkened. "There's not much time. There's less than twenty-five minutes left!"
"That's not my concern!" Liang Xiao indicated that time was not an issue.
"Are you crazy? When the time is up, we'll all be blown to pieces. If you want to commit suicide, you can find someone else. I won't accompany you! " The bear-like man suggested to his companions. "Let's go together. As for those who are unfortunately stopped, it's their bad luck. Anyway, we have to leave!"
"Why don't we work together to kill these two bastards first? We can tear them to pieces and use the remaining time to return to the ground. I dare say that there's still a lot of time. We can do anything! " The Wild Boar man's suggestion was even more radical. He wanted to work together with the power of five people to kill Smiling Tiger Liang Xiao and Tie Tou. Then, they would use the remaining time to escape from the explosion range of the super big firecracker.
"You're no match for him!" The Rock Man replied calmly.
"Shut up!" The Wild Boar man looked as if someone had stepped on his tail.
"He's telling the truth!" Liang Xiao also used his fingertips to push up his gold-rimmed glasses. In contrast to his elegant movements, the Cobra man's actions were like a clumsy imitator.
"Dear Liang, this is not a good decision! Liang, you're the smartest teammate I've ever worked with. In missions, your decisions are always full of wisdom. I can't find any flaws. I admire you so much! In fact, when I came to Dong Mountain and heard that you've changed your name and become a philanthropist, I was relieved! Yes, I don't want to be your enemy! Dear Liang, please listen to me. It's not the best choice for us to stay here. Once the super big firecracker has been set to explode, it can't be changed anymore! If you show yourself before we set it, I'll give you face and give up this mission! But it's too late. We have to leave now! Can you make way? Liang, we can solve our problems on the surface. We don't have much time! "Boss Crocodile advised Liang Xiao to act rationally.
"Mr. Crocodile, I want to say that this is my hometown!" The smile on Liang Xiao's face did not change. "Don't say that I've decided to change my name. Even if I haven't, I'm still an underground mercenary who lives and dies for money. I won't sit back and watch you destroy my hometown!"
"It's too late, Liang. There's no turning back now!" Boss Crocodile shouted angrily.
"I don't care about that. Those are not things I'm good at. I don't need to worry about things that don't belong to my expertise! I only know one thing. You came to my hometown and destroyed it. I have to make you stay in this underground river. No matter what you want to do, as long as I'm alive, you must pay the price! This is my answer to you! "Liang Xiao's eagle eyes behind his glasses suddenly emitted a light that no one could look at.
