Chapter 165 - Chapter 165: Gunfire

Five minutes later, the first to wake up was Thomas Xu, who appeared behind the wall, drenched. He had quickly learned the situation from Lu Jia, observed the outside conditions, and was immediately shocked by the enemy's powerful firepower. He wiped the water off his face and, with a serious expression, muttered, "Damn, who are these people? Why do they all have imported heavy firepower, even sniper guns!"

"Are they... are they really that strong?" Jiao Jiao's pretty face paled again as she asked in a dry voice.

"They're like the Los Angeles SWAT team, how can they not be strong?" Thomas Xu frowned irritably.

"Thomas Xu, what's going on?" At that moment, Jack finally came out. His eyes were bloodshot from a hangover, and he was accompanied by two women who made their way along the wall, shaking the water droplets from their hair as they squatted down beside Thomas Xu.

"I can't figure it out. There are probably twelve or thirteen people outside, both men and women, and they have a variety of weapons, but they're all high-quality imports—AKs, M4s, MP5s, and even the old Russian SVD! If this were in America, I wouldn't think much of it, but damn it, this is America! Where did they get these guns?" Thomas Xu shook his head, feeling extremely frustrated.

"So impressive?" Jack was also shocked. Each of these guns was a famous weapon, and their firepower was quite formidable. If the other side was equally well-trained, they would definitely suffer heavy losses in a firefight.

"Why aren't you bringing out the food yet? Our patience is very limited. We'll give you five more minutes, and if you don't bring it out, we will start shooting!" At this moment, the bearded man shouted impatiently from behind the car, while his companions straightened up, ready to strike at any moment.

"I mean, Thomas Xu, could they really be some kind of special forces?" Boss Hu squatted to the side with a pale face, anxiously asking.

"Special forces my ass! They can't even find a good cover position, and they're special forces? But... they must have received some training; otherwise, they wouldn't be executing tactical maneuvers so well!" Thomas Xu initially scoffed, but he ended up adding a frustrated remark.

"Then why are we even fighting? Just give them the food; at worst, we can find more later!" Boss Hu said with a long face, looking defeated.

"Bai Ru, where did you put our rocket launcher?" Jack thought for a moment and turned to Bai Ru. For now, they could only use the rocket launcher to intimidate them; if that didn't work, they would have to get serious.

"I... we left the rocket launcher in the car outside! We didn't bring it in!" Bai Ru looked at Jack with a pale face, regretting her decision. She wished she had let A Xue carry the rocket launcher; if they had it, everything would have been resolved.

"Damn it, forget it, let's fight them! Our firepower isn't bad either; let's see who is afraid of whom!" Thomas Xu snatched the rifle from Bing Bing's hands, pulled the bolt back with a "click," and after loading the bullet, he glanced at Jack, who silently picked up another rifle, and resolutely said, "Brother Lin, you go left, I go right, shall we cross our fire?"

"Okay!" Jack nodded, quickly checking his weapon. He instructed all the women to retreat to a safe area in the courtyard. He loaded five fully loaded magazines into his pockets, exchanged a glance with Thomas Xu, and crouched against the wall. Without looking at the enemies outside, he extended his hand and unleashed a burst of bullets. At the same time, Thomas Xu rolled quickly over the door, leaned against the opposite wall, and crouched down. While the enemy was panicking and dodging the bullets, he began to take aimed shots.

"Kill the sniper first." Jack clicked the bullet to the end, leaving only a life-saving bullet in the gun chamber. He quickly took off the magazine and changed one side, and instantly inserted the new magazine wrapped with tape on the other side. From his side, From this angle, the sniper at the rear of the mini car can't be seen at all. Because the Cheetah is blocking it, he has to lean out more than half of his body. But leaning out at this time is almost like seeking death. The sniper can send Jack to the sky with one shot.

Thomas Asahi's six-shot bullet instantly killed the three people behind the Mercedes-Benz. Although the three people were stuck to the trunk without even exposing their heads, how could the thin car body block the rifle fire within a hundred meters? All three people were killed across the car. In addition to being frightened, the eyes of the three people who fell to the ground were full of doubts, as if they couldn't figure out how they could still die across the car.

After the three people were killed, Thomas Xu immediately discovered that this was a group of rookies with no training but no experience. They were not filming a Hollywood blockbuster. They thought they could not be killed by hiding behind the car. It was not a Mercedes-Benz armored car. Unless there was some possibility of escape hiding behind the engine in front of the car, they would definitely shoot them all.

"The sniper cat is up, and I can't see it either."

After Thomas Xu killed three people in one go, his momentum immediately increased, but the female sniper wearing a baseball cap disappeared with a "hula". He could only hold the gun and worry. He knew that snipers were the biggest threat to them. His angle was better, and he could almost see most of the situation outside. However, Jack's position was a bit awkward.

There was another burst of fire, and Thomas Xu killed another person hiding in the crotch of the car with two guns in the blink of an eye. Judging from the style of the red sneakers on his feet, he seemed to be a woman, but Thomas Xu would not show mercy at this time. His instructor had told his female teammates more than once that once you get a gun, you are no longer a woman, but a warrior. When it is time to hit you on the head, people will never hit your feet just because you are a woman.

However, Thomas Xu quickly hit the other person's foot, but it was a man's foot that was shaking very badly. The man retracted his head the moment his companion was killed, and leaned his back on the rear tire of the Mercedes-Benz. Even through the window, you couldn't see anything, leaving only a big foot wearing gray socks and an M4A1 gun tube hanging on the ground.

A scorching bullet penetrated the foot wearing gray socks in a flash, and a bloody light with broken flesh suddenly appeared. The man behind the car let out a heart-breaking scream, and his whole body fell to the ground. But the moment his body landed, a roaring bullet came. The bullet was waiting for him, as if it had already predicted the position where the man's head would fall. The bullet accurately passed through his temple with a "swish" sound, taking away most of his head. Only half of his head was left staring at the ground in horror, red and white, flowing hotly all over the floor.

"Ah...surrender...we surrender...don't fight anymore, please don't fight anymore..."

Thomas Xu was enjoying the killing, but he didn't expect the other party to shout such words. These rookies were really good at it. He and Jack had almost finished shooting bullets, but none of them could fire a single shot. Those powerful aiming gestures just now seemed to have gone to hell. All they knew was that they kept screaming one after another from behind the car. If Thomas Xu and Jack hadn't been worried about the sniper, they would have jumped out and killed them long ago.

"Surrendered? So soon?" Thomas Xu and Jack exchanged surprised glances, both filled with disbelief. It hadn't even been a minute since the gunfire started, so how could they surrender already? But thinking about it, it made sense; there were more than ten of them, and almost immediately, they lost five to their own fire. One unfortunate soul was also caught in Jack's random gunfire and met his end. They probably had never witnessed such a life-and-death struggle on this scale and were scared out of their wits.

"Don't stick your head out, be careful of the sniper trying to trick you!" Jack quickly stopped Thomas Xu from the impulse to peek out. He had seen this kind of feigned surrender countless times in his life.

Thomas Xu immediately froze, feeling a bit scared. It had been too long since he had experienced a gunfight; he had only been dealing with some foolish zombies, almost forgetting everything his instructor had taught him back in the day. If he stuck his head out and the sniper was waiting for that opportunity, he would directly become a tragedy, saying goodbye to this both evil and beautiful world.
