At the high point earlier, Xiaofan had already clearly seen the enemies in three directions. The rear was where those criminals made contact with each other. Once these mercenaries passed through the forest and joined with the criminals, they would escort those criminals across the border.
But whether it's economic loss or dignity, Huaxia would not allow such a thing to happen.
The border guards led the charge, enduring painstakingly for such a long time. Due to the foreign country not agreeing to help encircle and suppress these mercenaries, it caused great difficulty. If not for diplomatic relations between the two countries, damn it, they would have already bombarded these bastards with artillery.
"How's your side doing?"
Gently wiping the blood off the dagger, Xiaofan suddenly understood why Shen Zuimo always used this weapon. From the first day he met her, she had been killing people with a reverse grip on the dagger.
Because the sharp blade could easily cut open blood vessels on the human body without the need for much Inner Strength, delivering a fatal blow effortlessly.
"Fifteen people, all killed."
"Seventeen people, no survivors."
"Continue forward in the current formation, watch out for snipers, don't let your guard down."
"Understood."
"Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah."
"Everyone's good."
The reply over the walkie-talkie was somewhat dull. Xiaofan seemed to sense something was off on the other end, but now he didn't have time to ask in detail. The border line was ahead, continuing forward, there would definitely be more enemies.
"Move out."
With Xiaofan's command, seven people continued to charge forward quickly in this dispersed formation.
"Keep up, keep up." Li Kuo, who had just readjusted the three drones, hurriedly instructed the deputy to follow in Xiaofan and others' footsteps.
"But..."
"They've already fought their way over there. This means this place is absolutely safe, drive and catch up. I haven't bombed many bastards yet." Li Kuo pouted, using one of the drones to transmit the images back.
"Xiaofan, you have six people moving on your side."
"Left or right side?"
"Right side."
"The ones on the right, deal with them."
"Received."
The dialogues were short, yet very effective. The three people deep on Xiaofan's right side had already arrived and, with a thunderous momentum, swiftly killed all six people spotted by the drones.
On one side, there was Li Kuo's precise position report, and on the other side, there were these skilled fighters' swift kills. For a moment, Xiaofan and the others didn't even know how many people had been killed. Anyway, their sleeves were already stained with blood, and their thoughts had even become numb.
Outside the border, the mercenaries waiting to respond suddenly lost contact with the front line. The gunfire and artillery fire in the forest stopped.
The leader of this team seemed to have realized something was wrong.
Huaxia was originally a forbidden zone for mercenaries. If it wasn't for the high commission this time, they would never have taken on this task.
But, more than half of their teammates entered the forest, and after waiting so long, they didn't even fire a flare. The walkie-talkie could only contact those who had just gone in for reinforcements and to deliver ammunition and rations. None of the others in battle could be contacted.
Five minutes later, they couldn't even contact those who went in for reinforcements and deliveries.
"Captain, Liu is almost at his limit. He told us we must get there within two hours, otherwise, there's no money, what should we do?"
"What do you mean, what to do? Isn't everything always fine over there?"
"It was always like that before, but Huaxia's soldiers suddenly all retreated and surrounded them heavily. It seems they can't hold on much longer."
"Retreat? No way, right? If they retreated, we should have already reached Liu's side, right? Could it be they got reinforcements again?"
"Captain, what if we retreat, this business might not be doable anymore."
"Retreat? I sacrificed so many brothers, struggled for so long, and now you want me to retreat? No way, I'm definitely taking this two billion. Brothers, grab your gear, charge in with me. I want to see, what kind of special abilities those Huaxia cowards actually have."
With one word from the mercenary captain, over fifty mercenaries waiting outside the border stood up in unison.
"I promised you, after completing this deal, everyone will get ten million each, enough to let you live comfortably for half a lifetime, so, for the sake of a beautiful half-life, follow me, charge in."
"Charge..."
This roar echoed at the border. These fifty people all donned their gear, preparing to follow the captain up the hill. Once they climbed this break, ahead would be Huaxia's border.
But...
"Well, well, so many people gathering here?"
A sudden voice came from the hilltop. A figure lazily stretched. Standing by Huaxia's national boundary marker, he crouched down, wiped the stains left by wind and rain, and then stood up again, coldly staring at the dozens of mercenaries ready to charge up.
Xiaofan's sudden appearance made these fifty-plus people stop dead in their tracks.
Facing those dozens of hot weapons pointed directly at him, Xiaofan showed no sign of fear. He just stood there straight, showing a momentum of one man holding the pass against ten thousand enemies.
"Kid, you tired of living? Dare stand in my way alone?" The captain looked at Xiaofan with disdain. Although he admired Xiaofan's boldness, just bravery alone meant he could run here to die?
"Kids? I think it's you guys who are tired of living. Come on, try taking one more step forward, one step..."
Xiaofan's aura directly suppressed the other side. Clearly, it was just him alone, but none of those fifty-plus dared to step forward.
"Captain...this kid is a bit peculiar."
"Peculiar, my ass." The captain cursed and then looked at Xiaofan: "Kid, I respect you as a man, step aside, and I won't take your life."
"As long as you drop your weapons and leave now, I might consider not killing you."
"Hey, hahahaha, hahahaha..."
Xiaofan's words triggered the captain's laughter, followed by all the team members laughing along.
"Don't blame me for being impolite then."
"Bang."
With that, the captain pulled out a pistol and fired at Xiaofan.
Xiaofan slightly tilted his head, but a small blood trail was left on his cheek.
"Oh no, I'm bleeding." Xiaofan touched his cheek, then took out a phone in front of everyone and dialed a number.
"Hmph, kid, are you leaving a farewell message?" The captain had aimed at his head when he shot, but he missed. Maybe it was due to not aiming properly, yeah, definitely wasn't aiming.
"Hello, Grandpa Fan..."
