When Chen Zhao stepped into a modified military transport vehicle, the atmosphere in the vehicle dropped to a freezing point.
The soldiers all gripped their guns tightly and stared at Chen Zhao.
It seemed like they could attack at any time.
Just then, Hamm spoke up.
"Mr. Chen, here's the Desert Eagle you wanted." Hamm lowered the gun and handed it to Chen Zhao by the handle.
"Thank you." Chen Zhao took the Desert Eagle and wiped the gun with a handkerchief.
He had to admit that the Desert Eagle was indeed very beautiful.
Chen Zhao couldn't bear to put it down. The Desert Eagle was just like in the movies. It was heavy in his hands and his entire aura changed.
It could be said that it was a firearm that was deified in movies.
Its huge recoil force and weight of up to two kilograms, as well as its low performance and reliability, made it impossible for it to be used professionally.
However, it had a very good market for civilian use.
The Desert Eagle had always been one of the top-selling guns on Old America's gun shop's shelves.
Therefore, the Desert Eagle fully demonstrated the saying that appearance was the best.
Of course, Chen Zhao also felt the disdain from his "teammates."
"Mr. Chen, do you like guns?"
Like? Chen Zhao's few records of killing enemies with guns had all been by pointing the muzzle at the enemy's head.
How could Chen Zhao like guns? He was just a fan and worshiped this legendary weapon.
But after a few rounds, he got bored.
His natural lack of passion for guns also came with it.
It was mainly because Chen Zhao lacked the talent for firearms.
Chen Zhao had shot at the enemies with firearms several times, but the kills turned into threats.
The enemies thought that Chen Zhao didn't kill them on purpose.
After leaving the city, the transport vehicle entered the desert.
At first, the transport vehicle could still move.
Apart from being a bit bumpy, there were no other flaws.
But in less than ten minutes, the vehicle stopped moving.
After everyone got off, they realized that it was a crack in the terrain.
The vehicle couldn't drive over, so they could only get off and walk.
It took them quite some time to go around the crack.
Actually, both Upper and Lower California weren't desertified.
It was mainly because of the rainfall that dried up the land. The geology was mainly rock, black soil, and loess.
It wasn't like the Sahara Desert, which was completely desertified.
It was cold in the desert at night.
Because everyone needed to fight, they couldn't wear too thick clothes.
When the cold wind blew, they all shivered.
Don't think that these elites who trained in water and fire are not afraid of the cold.
In fact, this was the most painful moment for them.
This was because they would sweat a lot when they moved forward while carrying a heavy load, and sweat would take away heat at a faster rate, thus consuming even more physical strength.
If it was a sub-zero temperature environment, it would not consume so much energy.
This was because the low temperature caused the sweat glands in the human body to contract, and the low temperature made it even drier.
Therefore, the difference in temperature was not that great.
It was just like what the Chinese often said about the fighting nation, running around naked in an environment that was more than -10 degrees Celsius.
In fact, in southern China, when the temperature was five or six degrees above zero, the humidity would increase by 10%, and the temperature difference would decrease by 10 degrees.
Therefore, the temperature of minus ten degrees Celsius in the Fighting Nation was actually similar to the temperature of a few degrees Celsius in the south of Huaxia.
Of course, this was also the time to show off their stamina.
After replenishing some nutritional water, they resumed their journey.
Ham had been observing Chen Zhao in secret.
When everyone else rested, Chen Zhao rested too.
While everyone was replenishing their stamina, he was also replenishing his stamina.
But without a doubt, Chen Zhao was carrying almost zero weight. It was a completely different experience from them.
All of them were heavily armed. The guns and ammunition on them added up to more than 40 kilograms.
Therefore, if a battle happened, Chen Zhao would definitely have an advantage in terms of stamina.
Of course, Chen Zhao had almost no equipment, so his firepower was definitely not as good as the fully-armed soldiers.
Hamm evaluated in his heart.
To be honest, they had known each other for a few days.
However, he had never seen Chen Zhao fight seriously.
The incident at the airport could only be considered a small conflict. It was far from fighting.
But Ham knew that Chen Zhao was an expert hired by Demi at a high price.
Ham did not have access to the base's budget, so he did not know how high Chen Zhao's price was.
But Demi would definitely not hire a beggar to make up the numbers.
Moreover, Chen Zhao had already silently tied up the entire team and buried them alive in the desert that night, proving his strength.
He also believed that Chen Zhao did not carry weapons not because he was careless or arrogant.
He was probably the type that was better at close-range combat.
Demi had also said that Chen Zhao was an expert in this area.
Ham really wanted to see what kind of expert Chen Zhao was.
But there were no battles or ambushes along the way.
Their biggest enemy was only stamina.
They found the entrance according to the intelligence.
"This is the wall. Where's the entrance?" They stopped before a wall in a valley.
According to the intelligence, this was the entrance.
But there was nothing else apart from the wall.
"It should be a hidden entrance." Ham studied the wall before him.
Then he looked at Chen Zhao. "Mr. Chen, do you have any suggestions?"
If the normal method of finding the entrance was very complicated, there was another way — exploding the wall.
The rock wall was about ten meters long, and they had enough explosives. They could use them to determine the location of the entrance.
But this way, they would also be exposed.
It would be impossible to launch a surprise attack. They would have to face the enemy's all-out counterattack.
Chen Zhao glanced at the wall. "The entrance is around there."
Everyone looked at Chen Zhao. "How do you know?" Ham asked.
He wasn't doubting Chen Zhao. After all, they were in the same boat.
Thus, he believed that Chen Zhao wouldn't lie about this.
He felt that Chen Zhao had some way or found some details that they hadn't noticed.
"Who has an ultraviolet detector? You can look over there."
Just then, one of them switched to an ultraviolet detector. Indeed, there were traces of blood at the place Chen Zhao was pointing at.
"Captain." The team member nodded at Ham.
Ham took the ultraviolet detector and saw the blood too.
"Mr. Chen, you don't seem to have any equipment. How did you see it?"
"Of course I have my ways," Chen Zhao said.
In fact, Chen Zhao's small world covered the entrance, so he could see it.
Hamm made a few tactical gestures.
An engineer soldier lurked at the entrance and began to set up the directional explosives.
The series of actions was done in one go. The entire process took less than 45 seconds.
After the installation was complete, there was a deep sound.
The rocks on the wall started peeling off, revealing the metal door inside.
