In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
However, this period of time was extremely long for the Destruction Team …
"That white shadow keeps jumping out to ambush us. Although it doesn't have many chances to succeed, someone will definitely be dragged away after a few times … We've already lost four people during this period of time," a team member said with a frown as he followed the young man.
He turned around to look at his teammates, who were huddled together but looked exhausted. He could not help but ask in a low voice, "Vice-captain, what should we do? If we keep chasing like this … "
What should we do?
"I want to know too!"
The young man was very depressed, and this emotion was becoming more and more intense as time passed.
If they chased after them, the mutated beast would continue to harass them from the side. However, if they did not chase after them, they could not take it lying down.
Furthermore, the mutated beast was moving too quickly. From the results of his Spiritual Detection, there might be more than one mutated beast in the vicinity.
Therefore, even if he could detect its position, he did not dare to chase after it. After all, their mission was not to kill the monster …
Normally, mutated beasts would reveal some flaws after a few attacks, no matter what kind of cover they used. However, this white shadow hiding in the bushes was completely different. Not only was it good at picking the right time, but it could also see through their intentions. It was because of this characteristic that the Destruction Team had no choice but to give up on getting rid of it. Instead, they focused on defending against it.
Fortunately, a few people in the team had already scattered to the periphery, including the woman called Callie.
They had their own abilities, and they were able to block the mutated beast for a while.
However, what made him the most indignant was his luck! He was sure that Ling Mo and the rest were in front of him, but the mutated beast did not chase after them. Instead, it locked onto them!
"No … it might not be luck. It might have something to do with the secret hidden in his body! If it wasn't because of that, how could they have escaped? " The young man gritted his teeth as he pondered. Then, he showed a hint of contemplation. "No wonder Staff Officer Wang attaches so much importance to it and specifically chose the town without zombies as the location. This is actually to restrain him to the greatest extent! No, I must catch him. Even if it's not for Staff Officer Wang, I must pry the secret out of his mouth! With my ability, he can't hide it! The reason why he could live until now and cause so much trouble for us during his escape is because of this secret … If I can get it too, then zombies are nothing to be afraid of … "
The young man was only excited for a few seconds before he lowered his head speechlessly.
If he couldn't be caught, there was no point in thinking about it!
"I have to think of a way …"
"Keep chasing! We can't stay here anymore. "The young man clenched his fists and made a decision.
In the process of chasing, they finally made a move to retreat. Even if it was just a detour, in reality, it was equivalent to giving up on the plan to immediately capture Ling Mo and the others …
We can't push them too hard. As long as we temporarily avoid these dangers, our advantage will still remain, the young man thought to himself.
It was not easy for the young man to control the desire in his heart under such circumstances …
The more pathetic the team he was in, the greater the anticipation in his heart …
"That's for the best …" The team member heaved a sigh of relief.
It wasn't that he couldn't see the grievance in the deputy captain's heart, but compared to being dragged away, he would rather see more expressions …
"Is this the location map …"
In the distance, Ling Mo closed his eyes and said to himself, then he slowly raised his head.
Separated by thousands of meters in the wilderness, Ling Mo could only vaguely sense their existence. But with Black Silk's illusion projection, every move of the young man and the others couldn't escape Ling Mo's eyes.
Although he was weaker than this young man in terms of detection, he had mastered this unexpected method …
If they didn't expect it, they wouldn't be prepared, and what Ling Mo was waiting for was the best opportunity.
Weakening their strength with sneak attacks and wearing down their patience, this was only a part of Ling Mo's plan.
What he really wanted to do was … fight back!
"Whoosh!"
With a slight sound of breaking through the air, there was a slight fluctuation in the grass.
"It's coming again!"
Just as one of the team members shouted, there was suddenly a soft "puff" sound from the side.
As soon as the young man turned his head, a spray of blood immediately splashed on his face.
At the same time, the outermost team member suddenly let out a short cry of surprise, but when everyone looked over, he was already gone.
Only Kelly quickly raised her pistol and fired more than ten bullets in the direction where the cry for help disappeared.
A few seconds later, a black shadow was suddenly thrown out from the grass and fell heavily beside them.
Someone panicked and took two steps back. After seeing that the black shadow didn't move, he went over and lit a lighter.
"Ah!"
With a flash of light, a face with remnants of despair and fear appeared in front of everyone. His body was full of bullet holes, blood was constantly gushing out, and his body was even slightly twitching.
Kelly slowly lowered the muzzle, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The others couldn't help but look at her, there was fear and anger on their faces …
However, what was even more horrifying was the other corpse …
The one who died was none other than the team member who just followed the young man … After noticing this, the young man's face suddenly became ugly.
The distance between the two of them was less than a meter, if the target was not a team member but him …
"I can dodge, but I will get hurt! No … I might not even be able to dodge … "The young man thought with a cold body.
At least when he reacted, the team member had already been shot.
One must know that at the moment when the abnormality occurred, everyone was in a state of high alert, but the opponent could still accurately hit the target …
What kind of accurate judgment was this?!
"It's a sniper bullet." A team member squatted down to check and said.
"Is this … a coincidence?" Someone murmured, his eyes revealed a thick sense of fear.
"Cooperating with a mutated beast, this kind of thing …"
The remaining members suddenly became silent. No matter what method the opponent used to do it, this scene deeply stimulated their hearts.
"If we didn't chase in the beginning …" As soon as one of the team members spoke, he was fiercely stared at by the young man.
The team member's heart immediately "thumped", but as he turned his head, the people around him showed a similar expression.
The young man gritted his teeth, his heart was burning with anger.
"Killing two birds with one stone … No, this is killing three birds with one stone! Not only did it bring a threat and deterrence to us, but it also made most of the team members want to retreat … "He looked down at the corpse at his feet and thought," Although I don't know how they did it, in this wilderness, their vision should be completely blocked. But looking at the current situation, they just can't identify fixed targets, but they have the basic ability to aim … "
"And this corpse …" The young man looked at the team member that was killed by Kelly and thrown back. Other than the bullet hole, there was no other visible injury on this person. But in any case, with the habits of mutated beasts, it was unlikely that they would throw their prey back …
But this trace of doubt was quickly thrown to the back of the young man's mind. Even if it was abnormal, at the moment, it could only be attributed to the high intelligence of this mutated beast … It revealed a strange similarity between its method and Ling Mo's, and that was … to promote their fear.
Now it was not good to chase, but also not good to retreat …
"He hid here, not to escape …" The young man muttered softly.
"Let's go." Kelly suddenly said.
Seeing that the others looked over, she immediately smiled and said, "The opponent's intention is already very clear, if this goes on, we will only be in a passive position. No matter how careful we are, we definitely can't avoid a sniper. And everyone will be in a state of panic, worried that the next person to be sniped will be themselves … This kind of feeling of waiting to be killed, I think everyone feels very uncomfortable, right? "
"So, leaving a part of the team to continue advancing, and at the same time picking a few people to go hunting … Isn't this throwing out the bait to fight the battle plan just right for our current situation?"
