Chapter 129 Counter-Ambush

As Xie Liu said the three words "blood skull", the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Everyone pulled the bolts of their guns, released the safety, raised the muzzles and aimed at the residents in front who were also holding weapons.

The drone took off, and Li Shi also stood in front and squatted, blocking Chen Jian like a shield.

The battle entered a stage where it was on the verge of breaking out. At this moment, if any one person made an unnecessary move, the iron rain formed by the bullets would instantly sweep away everything and bring the situation into an abyss of no return.

The woman kneeling on the ground was still crying, and from her intermittent words, Chen Jian roughly understood the context of the matter.

Monsters, bloody skeletons, kidnapped women, long comas, bulging bellies, merchants coming to trade
Everyone here can actually guess the truth.

They must know that it was the actions of those "businessmen" that led to this tragic result.

However, they were powerless to resist.

The women could only hand over their unborn babies to the merchants in exchange for food, tools and daily necessities for the town.

And they don’t know what happened to those children.

Could someone who could do such a thing really have any mercy for those babies?
Death is the most likely outcome, which is why the woman wanted to hand her child over to Chen Jian's team.
Perhaps in his opinion, this caravan was at least a normal caravan.

Of course, it is also her last hope.

A nameless anger rose in Chen Jian's heart.

If the discovery that Huadu was a city corrupted by drugs had only touched his bottom line, then what they were doing now was really trampling on Chen Jian's bottom line.

This gang of evildoers has actually gone to such an extent.
Using living people as their "seedling bed"?
Why don't you go up by yourselves?
He turned to look at the other team members, and everyone's expressions were similar to his.

Obviously, everyone has already put the name "Flower City" on the list.

As for when this name will be crossed out.
I'm afraid the sooner the better.

The Spring City doesn't seem to be far away.

Chen Jian made a decision secretly, but at this moment, the problem they were facing had not been solved.

He reached out and pulled up the woman kneeling on the ground, then asked:
"You know what you're giving birth to, right?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, shook her head at first, but then nodded desperately.

She couldn't utter a word anymore.

She knew that from the moment the child was born, his fate was determined.

She should have accepted this result, but her maternal instinct prevented her from making up her mind.

This is probably one of the weaknesses that Huadu can exploit.
Seeing her actions, Chen Jian took a deep breath and then asked:
"When will those merchants you mentioned come?"

"Don't know but they come at least once a month."

"The last time they came was a few days ago."

"They took several children away, one of them was my sister's child"

"My sister, my sister caught up with them but she didn't come back either"

The woman's voice was almost drowned out by her crying. Chen Jian whispered to comfort her:

"calm down."

"I'll help you."

"Now tell me, where did they come from?"

"I have no idea."

"Think carefully! Which direction?"

Chen Jian's attitude was firm. He knew that the other party was already in a state of great confusion and it would be useless to comfort or encourage him at this time.

Only by being strong enough can she regain her sanity.

And sure enough, after being stunned for a while, the woman finally answered:

"Northeast. Northeast!"

"Then it is most likely Anqing."

Shen Yue on the side interrupted:
“Although the Yangtze River waterway is not very busy, it is crowded with people and eyes.”

"Hua is willing to do something like this, there is absolutely no way she would risk taking the water route."

"They probably opened up a proposed transportation network with Anqing as the center, covering all the scattered settlements around it."

"This place is still 100 kilometers away from Anqing, and it has already been devastated to this extent."

"Keep getting closer to Anqing. Tsk tsk."

"My biggest hope now is that there are more than just Terror Demons in Anqing."

"It'd be better to give me some Huadu people as a gift, otherwise I won't be able to let go of this anger."

"If it doesn't work, we can surround the place and attack the reinforcements."

Chen Jian said leisurely:

"At the end of the day, they have to pay."

"Let's not talk about this for now - Zeng Yi, go over and communicate with them and explain the situation to them."

"I don't believe that all the men here are weaklings. Their women have been abused like this, so do they still regard us who are trying to help them as enemies?"

"clear."

Zeng Yi put down his gun upon hearing the sound and walked straight towards the panicked crowd on the opposite side.

After a moment, everyone put down their guns doubtfully.

After they approached the team under the leadership of Zeng Yi, Chen Jian also obtained more information from them.

The experiment in Huadu actually started a long time ago.

These women were not the first victims. In fact, some of them escaped from Wangjiang Town further east!

They originally thought that they could escape the clutches of Huadu by leaving that small town, but just two years later, that clutch of evil stretched further and further, reaching out to Susong.

"Why don't you resist?"

This question went through Chen Jian's mind, but the next question he asked was another one.

"Did anyone resist?"

And he got the answer from one of the men with scars on his face.

When he was in Wangjiang Town, he once resisted together with the residents there, but the large number of terrifying demons almost destroyed them.

It is obvious that the people of Huadu have indeed mastered the initial method of controlling the blood skeletons.

Perhaps, they started by controlling the highly intelligent blood skeletons.

Chen Jian remembered what the monster in Wushan Lake said before it died.

"We are almost there."

What success?
Successfully transformed the loose group of Blood Skeletons into a powerful clan?

Chen Jian clearly felt that these people in Huadu were plotting a huge conspiracy.

The key to solving the mystery lies in Anqing.

We must get there as soon as possible and cannot stay for a moment.

Chen Jian made a prompt decision and said:
"We're leaving soon."

"Your problem will be solved. Although we can't guarantee that it will be solved immediately, you can make some changes."

"If there are more merchants coming and you think they are not strong, don't hesitate to kill them."

“Don’t worry about retaliation.”

"We can guarantee that they won't have the energy to retaliate against you before we return!"

".good."

The scarred man took the bullet from Shen Yue's hand, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

Chen Jian did not hesitate. He waved his hand and the team immediately took action.

The two cat cars continued to head east, and this time, their target was Anqing.

Two hours later, the team arrived at Wangjiang Town, which the scarred man mentioned. Chen Jian had planned to take a short break in this town and collect some intelligence, but when he saw the dead silent town, he immediately realized that it was too late.

There is no trace of any living person here, and the air is filled with a foul smell.

Ji Xing, who had a more sensitive sense of smell, had already frowned, while Chen Jian ordered everyone to wear air respirators. Zeng Yi and others who did not have air respirators also covered their mouths and noses with thick cloth as makeshift masks.

Immediately afterwards, the team entered the residential area, and a shocking scene instantly appeared before them.

There were many corpses lying scattered on the road, most of them had already rotted, and some had even turned into skeletons.

The reason why it is called "scattered" is that almost no body is complete.

The towns attacked by the terrors completely revealed the bloodthirsty nature of those monsters. They were no longer just killing people, but treating human bodies as some kind of detachable toys.

A large number of skulls were piled up in a huge wicker frame, with skull and hair fragments scattered around the frame, as if someone had thrown the heads of corpses far away into the wicker basket for fun.

The thigh bones were stuck upside down in the soft ground, piled up like firewood for a bonfire, and the ground was covered with traces of burning and dripping grease.

The rotting internal organs bred a disgusting fungal carpet on the wall. Birds flew over and pecked at the maggots that fell from the wall. They gently raised their heads and swallowed the worm eggs mixed with human flesh and blood into their stomachs.

Chen Jian felt so nauseous that he wanted to vomit.

It's not like he hasn't seen real war scenes.

When he participated in actual combat missions in the past, he had personally witnessed how a large-caliber howitzer blew several armed drug traffickers into blood foam.

But "war" is war after all.

The disgust brought by the pure killing could never be compared with the scene he saw before his eyes.

He breathed out gently and said:
“There are no living people here anymore.”

"The value of this settlement has been squeezed out. The reason they want to kill all these people is probably to destroy the evidence."

"Let's go. Don't waste time here. Let's go to Anqing."

"Abnormal heat source! Abnormal heat source!"

Before Chen Jian could finish his words, a drone in the air suddenly issued a warning.

"Enemy attack!"

he shouted.

Everyone in the team became alert instantly. Zeng Yi and Xie Liu jumped onto the roof, Li Shijin stepped forward and stood beside Chen Jian, while the others quickly opened the safety of their weapons, each taking up an advantageous position and controlling all possible enemy attack directions around them.

Only Ji Xing's reaction was a beat slow. After everyone was in place, she imitated Xie Liu and jumped onto the roof.

At this time, Chen Jian had already seen the incoming enemy from the images sent back by the drone.

"Demon Terror!"

"A lot of them!"

Chen Jian ordered in a deep voice:
"Everyone evacuate the city and block nearby roads."

"Xie Liu Zengyi stays in the city and continues to attract the enemy's attention."

"We must surround them here and annihilate them all!"

"understand!"

Without any hesitation, everyone in the team immediately took action.

Ji Xing followed Chen Jian closely and asked in surprise:
"What are you doing? How are you going to surround them with just a few of you?"

"There are at least dozens of these terrifying demons, and they have weapons in their hands!"

"They're not water ghosts, they're smarter!"

"If you can't fight, just watch!"

Chen Jian did not explain too much, but rushed directly onto the cat car and used the high mobility of the cat car to quickly occupy the designated encirclement point.

At the same time, several other people also took their positions one after another.

The five men opened a gap on the north side, and a large number of demons attacked from there.

"boom!"

The first gunshot rang out, but it did not come from Chen Jian's team, but from the demon.

Zeng Yi had already seen the location of the firing, and with the help of cover, he calmly used the 191 in his hand to fire a short burst of shots at the firing demon.

"Bang bang bang!"

The enemy fell down, and at the same time, more gunshots were heard from the north.

"Bang bang bang bang -"

"boom!"

The gunshots were accompanied by dull explosions. The demons threw grenades in the direction of Zeng Yi, and then ran towards him and Xie Liu with excited roars.

Having not enjoyed the pleasure of killing for too long, these demons stranded here have gone crazy.

Under the dense rain of bullets, Zeng Yi and his companions were unable to resist for a moment and could only keep dodging, leading the terrifying demon deeper into the residential area.

Chen Jian calmly observed their position. When He Shuo confirmed that the last enemy had entered the ambush circle, he patted Li Shi on the shoulder and said:
"go!"

Li Shi moved immediately.

Although the injury on his leg has not yet fully healed, his movements are not slow at all.

The two men advanced into the city one after the other. The 301 heavy machine gun in Li Shi's hand roared and spewed out bullets, almost tearing apart all the obstacles in front of them.

Chen Jian, holding a 191 and using Li Shi's body as a shield, methodically harvested the life of the demon with precise bursts of fire.

What? Heavy armored units have no advantage in street fighting?

What if my armored unit is in human form?

"Li Shi! Watch your right side!"

Chen Jian shouted and Li Shi turned the gun around.

At the same time, Chen Jian moved forward, deployed the weapon rack, and used Flight 201 to suppress the enemies attacking from the left, completely crushing their attempt at close combat.

The smell of gunpowder spread in the air, gradually overwhelming the original strong stench.

Chen Jian and his companion did not stop, and together with the other three, they converged towards the center in a star-shaped contraction route.

At this time, Xie Liu and Zeng Yi had escaped with the help of cover, but they did not retreat to the south. Instead, they detoured and blocked the last escape route of the demon.

Gunshots came from all directions, and the demon, overwhelmed by the desire to kill, finally felt fear.

They frantically threw all the explosives in their hands, but in the face of the loose formation formed by the coordinated cooperation of individuals, the damage caused by the grenades was too limited.

All the demons that tried to break out of the encirclement were pinned to death on the spot. When they finally gathered in an open space in the center of the residential area and tried to make a final dying struggle with a collective charge, Chen Jian issued a new order.

"Throw the grenade!"

In an instant, seven grenades were thrown at the same time.

But what they threw were genuine 82-2P1 defensive grenades!
"Boom! Boom!"

After the loud bang, fragments swept across, blood mist spread, and only a few terrifying demons were left on the open ground, still struggling to survive.

The team opened fire and shot all the demons dead.

The gunfire stopped for a moment, but at this moment, the drone sounded the alarm again.

"Abnormal heat source!"

Chen Jian looked in the direction the drone was pointing, and the hidden arrow missile on the weapon rack had already been deployed.

next second.

"boom!"

A monster that jumped high into the air was knocked down from the air.

Its body was torn into pieces before it even hit the ground.

Blood rained down, and Ji Xing, who had not taken any action from beginning to end, was stunned.

That monster
Its strength might not be up to the standard of a level 4 monster, but its speed was already comparable to his own.

However, its carefully planned sneak attack was thwarted in an instant.

Not even a ripple was caused.
