Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 296: Technology crushes
"What the hell?" Lu Wei was a little confused and didn't understand what Ou Yang meant.

"I said, there are people on the fifth floor!" Ou Yang explained in a low voice, "This guy is still hiding here, probably planning to ambush us!"

He originally wanted to say that there might be apostles here, but without any evidence, how could he know they were apostles? So he changed his story and said that someone was lying in ambush.

Lu Wei was unaware of the situation, while Luo Han looked completely bewildered, peering around for a long time but unable to spot anyone.

"Are you sure?" Lu Wei asked.

"I'm not sure," Ouyang said, his voice even lower. "Probably."

Lu Wei was completely at a loss. If he didn't ask, there might be hidden dangers, but if he did ask, he wouldn't know the situation. It was really a headache.

Without time to hesitate, he gritted his teeth and issued a new order: "The three of us will be responsible for the rescue. You two, eliminate any remaining enemies as soon as possible. If possible, spare two survivors!"

"Roger that!"

The team consisted of only five people, but they had to be split into two groups. Lu Wei didn't want to give this order, but since things had come to this point, he had to grit his teeth and charge forward no matter how disparate their strengths were.

Moreover, although there are only five people, the support from the rear is far beyond what can be counted!
Lu Wei glanced at the time: "The drone will arrive in four minutes. You decide how to use it. My only requirement is that it cannot interfere with the rescue operation!"

After the communication ended, Dafei, who was standing nearby, asked in a low voice, "Captain, can he handle it?"

Lu Wei laughed: "What are you doubting?"

“Luo Han is right next to him, so I can’t suspect anyone but my own people!” Da Fei quickly clarified. “But this whole thing seems a bit far-fetched no matter how you look at it.”

"You want to say how he discovered something was wrong, right?"

"Yes, that's what I meant." Dafei nodded quickly.

"If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them. No matter how they found out, I trust them," Lu Wei said seriously.

He originally thought that Ouyang was in Brown Bear when the epidemic broke out, and had come all the way out of the epidemic area. He had more experience in dealing with abnormal situations than others. In addition, there were not many immune people, so he brought Ouyang along.

Unexpectedly, this kid gave him more and more surprises. Moreover, although Ouyang was not a soldier, he had received military training, and he trained in his own way.

The military is a highly unified whole, and everyone receives the same training.

Therefore, although Ouyang had little contact with the others, he was able to integrate into the group very quickly after the operation began, giving him the surprise of picking up a random stone and unlocking a treasure.

On the other side, Ouyang immediately picked up 191 after reeling in the line.

His 191 not only had a drum magazine, but it was also the longest-barreled precision-fire version, which wasn't very convenient in confined indoor spaces.

In comparison, weapons like shotguns or submachine guns would be more suitable.

Unfortunately, he didn't have any. He couldn't just abandon the 191 and use the sniper grenade launcher instead, could he?

Holding his gun in both hands, Ou Yang cautiously peered into the corridor, but there wasn't a soul in sight.

He sniffed around, choosing the direction with the stronger smell: "This way!"

After saying that, he took the lead and walked out.

The two walked briskly, one in front of the other.

Luo Han thought that Ou Yang wasn't a soldier and wanted to rush to the front to protect him, but Ou Yang didn't give him the chance at all.

The smell grew stronger, and bloodstains from dragging appeared on the ground.

Ou Yang knew he had found the place. He followed the trail of blood and soon found a double glass door with a crooked sign that read "Ruin Technology".

The door gaps were taped up, but it wasn't sealed very tightly in the rush, and wisps of the spore smell slowly seeped out.

The bloodstains had disappeared under the door, their color so faded they were almost invisible. When rubbed with the sole of a shoe, they were still damp, indicating that someone had dragged a corpse from elsewhere and dumped it into Ryan's company.

Ou Yang gently pushed the glass door, but it didn't budge.

He immediately abandoned this place and followed the blood trail back. Before he could find the primary crime scene, the iron mine door opposite opened, and a handsome young white man walked out. The two bumped into each other.

Ou Yang suddenly shouted, "Police, don't move!"

Shuai Bai's expression changed drastically, and he quickly retreated while reaching for his gun.

Ouyang reacted faster, raising his hand and firing, two shots to the body and one to the head, there was no way to save him.

If it were someone else, he might have hesitated a bit, but the thing on Shuai Bai's waist was clearly a Phantom Flame Launcher!
No more running!
Shuai Bai was shot and slammed into the room, just as a scolding voice came from inside: "What happened? Deal with it immediately... WTF?"

The rest of the conversation was cut off by gunfire.

Unable to see clearly what was happening inside the room, Ouyang stepped forward, knelt down, and opened fire, bullets pouring into the room like they were free, drowning out all the roars and curses.

Luo Han reacted quickly, turning around nimbly and firing continuously with his rifle hovering above Ou Yang's right shoulder.

Unless you're left-handed, you can only hold the gun above your right shoulder in this situation, because if you jump to the right and put it on the left, the spent cartridge might fall into Ouyang's collar.

This thing just jumped out of the gun barrel, it's still hot!
As for the gunshots, there's no need to mention them; with the protection of the tactical headset, hearing is completely unaffected.

The two men didn't just keep firing; after a few bursts, they started moving to the side.

When Ouyang had emptied a drum magazine, the two of them moved to a suitable position. He quickly changed to a new magazine and prepared to cut the corner. Luohan took the grenade from Ouyang's waist, pulled off the pin, and threw it into the house.

boom--

With a muffled thud, a blast of air shot out of the door.

The two quickly adjusted their positions, placing their guns on the left and right to create crossfire, and fired wildly into the doorway, not caring whether they hit anything or not.

In the blink of an eye, the magazine was empty. The 191 was too long, and Ouyang didn't even intend to reload. He simply slung the rifle behind him, reached out and drew his Glock, holding the gun with both hands in front of his chest, instead of stretching his arms out like in the movies.

Luo Han silently praised his professionalism and, under Ou Yang's cover, changed to a new magazine.

The gunshots gradually faded, and the corridor was filled with smoke.

Luo Han held the rifle in his right hand and started a countdown of three-two with his left. Just as Ou Yang was about to rush in, Luo Han rushed in first when he counted to two. He saw two corpses in his line of sight and fired a finishing shot without hesitation.

Ouyang quickly followed, and by the time he went inside, the finishing blows had already been completed. The two guns were pointed in two different directions, with the muzzles always aimed at the most likely hiding place.

There was no trick of coming out immediately or else shooting; Luohan simply opened fire and used bullets to probe the way.

Several enemies who had taken cover in the corner tried to fight back, but they were quickly knocked down by Ou Yang and Luo. Those hiding behind the corner were also killed by grenades.

Just then, a series of black shadows suddenly flashed past the window, swooping down at high speed, followed by a series of explosions.

The two men knew this was the second wave of the swarm's bombardment, but they had no time to worry about what was happening outside. They finished off the remaining enemies before searching for them, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that all the enemies had been killed.

Unfortunately, not a single survivor was left.

This is nobody's fault but theirs. Close-quarters combat is often a matter of life and death; a slight mistake could mean the death of one's own people. There's no room for holding back. Leave them alive? Are they tired of living?
Ouyang has always faced either vicious old Mi or irrational infected people. There is no need to hold back against either type of person, and he has never developed the habit of doing so.

What about the Arhats?
Although he had received rigorous training and was excellent in both tactics and physical fitness, Tokyo University had been at peace for a long time and had never been on the battlefield before coming to the United States, so his combat experience was almost zero.

In close-quarters combat, it's fine; you can rely on advanced equipment to crush your opponent. But in close combat, it's a different story. You have to rely on your reaction speed to hold your own and dare not hesitate for even a moment.

The two of them together are basically equivalent to Zhuge Liang and Feng Xiaogang. Expecting them to capture someone alive? That's just wishful thinking.

Regardless of the situation, the enemy had been dealt with, and the two immediately moved closer to the window, intending to offer some encouragement to Lu Wei.

Before I even got there, I heard a voice come from the walkie-talkie: "Your Majesty, how's it going on your end? I've spotted the drone swarm!"

Those were equipment dropped by the enemy, left lying on the ground, and hadn't been picked up yet.

Not only the walkie-talkies, but I didn't even have time to look at the other spoils of war.

The two exchanged a glance, and Luohan asked in a low voice, "What are you saying?"

Ou Yang was speechless: "Seriously?"

Luo Han was a little embarrassed: "He spoke too fast."

Ouyang really wanted to complain: "He saw the bee swarm and asked about the situation here."

Luo Han perked up: "Tell him it's nothing!"

Ou Yang's face darkened: "Are you kidding me? The accents are so different, you might as well not have said anything!"

"Just give it a try!" Luo Han said impatiently. "Let's strike up a conversation with him first!"

If it weren't for his poor foreign language skills, he would have taken the exam himself long ago.

Ouyang had no idea what he was up to: "Are you serious?"

"I'm not kidding!"

"Alright!" Ouyang was going all in, picked up the walkie-talkie, and replied in a low voice, "Everything's normal!"

He deliberately spoke vaguely, but the other person still sensed something was wrong: "Who are you? Where is the king?"

Luohan urged, "Keep talking, say anything, the longer the better!"

Completely clueless about what Luohan was trying to do, Ouyang could only blurt out, "The king? He ate something bad and is taking a dump!"

"who are you?"

At this point, neither concealing his identity nor making up one would seem right. So, Ou Yang quickly came up with a plan and decided to play dumb: "Hehe, look! Iron Man and Superman are fighting!"

No matter what he said, there was no further sound from the walkie-talkie.

The other side isn't easily fooled either; even the dumbest or most stupid person would realize something's wrong by now.

Ouyang shrugged helplessly: "Nothing more to say!"

Luohan gave a thumbs up: "That's enough..."

Several gunshots rang out from outside the window. The two men rushed to the window but saw no one, only corpses covering the ground.

The off-road vehicles brought by the black man were all destroyed by the drone, but the pickup truck was unharmed.

It wasn't that the swarm of drones let the pickup truck pass; rather, the drone pilot's drone was hidden under the pickup truck, and the swarm used signals to identify friend from foe, thus allowing the pickup truck to pass.

Ou Yang picked up the 191: "What's that enough for?"

Luo Han chuckled: "Of course, it's positioning!"

Ou Yang was stunned: "Just those few words?"

Luo Han didn't reply, but instead asked over the radio, "Old Ya, we've solved the problem. Is there anything you need us to do?"

Lu Wei rolled his eyes, not having time to correct the form of address: "Keep a close eye on the situation in the office, and provide fire support if necessary!"

"Received!" Luo Han confirmed the order. "I can't go into details, just know that we have a solution."

It's not that I don't want to talk about it, but it has to be kept secret even from internal staff. Ou Yang isn't a soldier, so naturally he can't say much.

At this time, the friendly warships at sea, along with drones circling near the city, successfully located the enemy's position. They then determined more than a dozen other coordinates by monitoring the enemy's radio communications.

Just minutes ago, our side was completely unaware of the enemy hiding behind us. In a short while, our electronic reconnaissance equipment had completely exposed the enemy's disguise, and the strongholds scattered throughout the city of Xiushidun were constantly being marked on the map.

Some of these signal points were not fixed but constantly moving, and were also detected by the drone.

If Ou Yang knew that a mere brief conversation could pinpoint the enemy's location, he would probably be speechless with astonishment.

These are just the warships near Xiushidun. If more advanced warships were to arrive, they might even be able to strip the enemy bare.

This is modern warfare, where, through technological means, the outcome of the battle between the enemy and ourselves can be decided in a silent moment.

Moreover, their own warships did not cut off the enemy's communications, but instead, while intercepting the enemy's frequency band, they monitored the direction of the signals and uncovered more hidden information.

At this point, the enemy's information is already transparent to our side, and we can destroy the enemy's communication network at any time.

But doing that would only alert the enemy and wouldn't make much difference. The key is to use the enemy's communication network to maximize our own interests!

Monitoring revealed that there were enemy communication nodes near several offices in the city, ranging from one to two, and even three!

There are two signals at the Diners Street office!
Lu Wei suddenly received a coordinate and the latest instructions from above. His pupils contracted and he immediately looked at the building behind the office.

There lies another enemy signal hidden there!
He had a bad feeling. Although the enemy's location had been found, that nonsense had also revealed the location of Ouyang and Luohan!
Lu Wei immediately roared anxiously into the radio, "Luo Han, you two get out of here right now, quick!"

Luo Han's eyes narrowed, and he grabbed Ou Yang, turning and running: "Received!"

If you receive such an order on the battlefield, don't hesitate, just execute it immediately!

Ouyang was still completely confused. Before leaving, he tried to steal a small box left behind by the enemy.

However, just as he was about to get the box, the lid suddenly popped open, revealing six silver-white metal cylinders arranged in three rows and two columns.

Ou Yang instantly lost his temper, grabbed Luo Han and took the initiative, running away as fast as he could, taking Fang Rang with him as he went.

The box full of phagocytogens popped open automatically; even a fool would know something was wrong!
The moment the door closed, a pale yellow mist spewed out of the open box, gradually spreading in all directions and even diffusing into the distance through the gaps in the doors and windows.

As Ouyang ran frantically, he smelled the increasingly strong odor of spores and broke out in a sweat: "Attention everyone! Put on your protective masks immediately, quick!"
