Chapter 408 Mysterious Tunnel
Gu Ji nodded.
At this moment, Gong Qingyong, Liu Weijun and others all raised their guns, their fingers pre-pressed the trigger, and aimed at the iron gate.
Gao Bo gently pulled out.
Along with the heart-wrenching "squeaking" friction sound, everyone gradually saw a narrow passage through the gap.
Wu Kang couldn't help but be startled.
"Is this... a tunnel dug?"
"Isn't it possible that the leader of Shalam took the target hostage and escaped from here?"
Gao Bo took a look with his tactical flashlight and saw that the tunnel sloped downwards and was surrounded by dry and cracked mud. Although the space was narrow, it was very deep and it was impossible to tell where it led.
"Watch, have you seen anyone fleeing from the village? Zizi..."
Gu Ji tried to contact Zhou Yang and Zhao Hua, but no one responded at all. There were only stretches of white noise, "Please reply if you hear me!"
"It's probably the basement that's interfering with the signal. Wrenches and bolts. Go up and have a look!"
"yes!"
When Gong Qingyong was commanding his team members.
Gao Bo straightened up and stood at the entrance of the tunnel, "How about we go in and take a look?"
"Stinger!"
Gu Ji tilted his head slightly, winked at Stinger, then took off a blast bomb from his chest and held it in his hand.
The space in this tunnel is too narrow, in the event of a head-on firefight.
Without a bulletproof shield, Gao Bo would definitely die.
Therefore, he must let the Stinger go ahead to give warning, and at the same time be prepared to engage the enemy.
It grinned and jumped, landed in front of Gao Bo's feet, exposed its tongue, and walked unsteadily into the tunnel.
Everyone hunched over and followed behind.
Since there was almost no ambient light in the tunnel, the night vision device became a burden that narrowed the field of vision, so Gu Ji turned it up.
Not long after passing the corner, the Stinger stopped in place.
Seeing this, he turned on the tactical flashlight and found a dark hole in front of its claws.
Gao Bo squatted down, lying at the entrance of the cave and looking around: "There's so much space in here! Damn it!!"
Hearing his sudden exclamation, Liu Weijun hurriedly approached him, his face instantly turning pale.
"There are so many bodies down there!"
"What!?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
Gong Qingyong shined a bright flashlight and found that there were many corpses of villagers piled under the entrance of the cave, all of which had been shot to death by bullets.
What surprised him even more was that the space under the cave entrance was indeed as Gao Bo said, terrifyingly large. Not only was it wide enough to accommodate a train, it was even so wide that you couldn't even see the end!
"Something's wrong, it doesn't look like someone can dig it out..."
"This was dug out with a drill!"
Gu Ji had just learned the mine self-rescue and rescue skills in the [Accident] category, and he could recognize the traces of mechanical excavation at a glance.
"Drilling machine?"
Zhuang Feng couldn't help but be shocked after hearing this, and murmured in his mouth, stringing together several words, "Kidnapping, tunnel, explosives, corpse, tunnel..."
"They're going to attack the Shay Oil Mine!!"
Looking at each other, Gu Ji and Zhuang Feng stared and shouted at the same time.
"I see!"
Gong Qingyong shook his fingers and analyzed each word:
"Shalam kidnapped Professor Kang in order to obtain the mine blueprints, then find the area closest to the mine, and drive all the villagers underground to dig tunnels. No wonder there is not even a single civilian in the village!"
Gao Bo scratched his helmet, looking puzzled.
"But why do they have to target oil mines? Are they unhappy with Iran or unhappy with us?"
"Hey! What are you talking about!"
While everyone was discussing, Milburn, who was completely speechless, finally couldn't help but burst out and stood up to interrupt several people.
But Zhuang Feng had no intention of being a translator now, and instead stayed in place with his head lowered.
Yes, his whole body froze there, his pupils full of horror.
There is even a hint of fear!
Gu Ji had a panoramic view of all this.
His intuition told him that the oil mine project cooperated by Xia Guo and Iran was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface, otherwise there would not be so many forces targeting it at the same time!
"Gong team! Palace team! Oh no, the watch point said there are several cars rushing toward us in the mountainous area opposite!"
"Damn! It must be enemy support!"
Gong Qingyong looked at Gu Ji with an annoyed look, "We have to get out of here quickly!"
But Gu Ji didn't answer immediately.
Because at this moment, lines of game text suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
[Crisis event discovered, entering the real glory level;]
[Anchor loading...]
[Time]: June 26, 2025 20:13:53
[Location]: Tehran, the capital of Iran
[Background]: On the morning of May 30, 2025, the Iranian Ministry of Defense received a strange phone call. The other party claimed to be a seller of "holographic projection replicators" for the Brazilian Ministry of Defense. He currently has a large number of technological weapons in his hands, not only for the Middle East , and even has a major impact on the situation of the entire world.
His selling price starts at US$1 billion.
At this point, a mysterious transaction has attracted the attention of countries in the Middle East.
The Israeli cabinet attached great importance to this incident, held a special meeting, immediately launched operation code-named "Orchard", and deployed relevant intelligence networks.
Sovereign countries, extremist organizations, and private armed forces;
Eavesdropping, tracking, kidnapping, assassination, satellite reconnaissance...
All parties are involved, and intelligence methods are emerging one after another, making this dangerous game more complicated and confusing...
As a special police officer of Xia Kingdom;
How to choose?
[The crisis begins! 】
[You have been listed on the kill list by the extremist organization "Shalam"; ]
["Shalam" reinforcements will arrive in the village in 1 minute and 12 seconds...]
【Please make your choice! 】
【A. Evacuate immediately;】
【B. Enter the mine tunnel;】
【C. Holding Zhuang Feng hostage;】
as expected.
It is exactly the same as the mechanism used to trigger the glory level in Brazil.
Only when Gu Ji "tests the law" and personally triggers the main thread related to black technology items can he receive system prompts.
The three options still represent three directions.
Although he really wanted to enter the mine tunnel to see what was inside that was worthy of Mossad and Shalam's trouble.
But compared to our own curiosity, everyone's lives are definitely more important.
Entering the mine tunnel at this time is like catching a turtle in a jar.
As for the last option, once done, it would be tantamount to breaking up with the country, but the expression on Zhuang Feng's face when he learned that Shalam had entered the mine tunnel was enough to prove that this guy must know a lot of secrets.
"Everyone, evacuate quickly!"
Gu Ji decisively chose option A.
[You have obtained Situational Awareness Specialization (perfect)! 】
Orange [Situational Awareness Specialization (Perfect)]: Improve situational awareness by 52%, increase environmental reading by 47.8%, sensory information acceptance by 44%, shorten information processing speed by 59%, and enhance high-speed capture of dynamic vision by 38%;
Eagle Eye: When the player is in a dangerous environment, by activating this skill, the player can instantly discover the thing or enemy that poses the highest threat to the player, and has a certain chance of finding a breaking point for 5 seconds.
When using this skill, a certain amount of body energy will be consumed.
The orange light fell, and Gu Ji suddenly felt that his senses suddenly became much sharper.
It's like an autonomous driving system in a smart car.
Eyes are cameras and hearing is radar.
Countless information around him was funneled into the logical thinking area of the left half of his brain. After being processed by neurons with ultra-high computing power, it was fed back to the advanced psychological function area, and finally he made a decision.
"This mark has greatly improved me..."
Gu Ji immediately felt that the visual mark he had made before was no longer good.
The moment everyone ran out of the house, the voices of Zhou Yang and Zhao Hua finally appeared in the tactical headphones.
"Zi... Gu Ji, Captain Liu, have you come out?"
"The extremists have already rushed to the hillside!"
"We're out! Watch and find a way to stop them!"
Gu Ji turned back to look at the hillside opposite the village. He did not see the light of the car lights. He only heard the roar of the car engine and the sound of tires crushing the bushes.
It seems that these terrorists have also learned to drive with the lights off.
"Okay, I'll figure it out... da da da!"
"Watch, what's the sound?!"
Gu Ji vaguely heard the sound of gunshots in the background of Zhao Hua, his expression changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "Zhou Yang! Zhao Hua!"
"Our communications have been cut off!"
"Gu Ji, there are gunshots on the hillside opposite, we are surrounded!"
Gao Bo and Liu Weijun exclaimed one after another.
The next second, there was a sharp mosquito sound in the air, and a black shadow flew over everyone's heads at an extremely fast speed.
"It's an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. It should be responsible for the signal interference!"
Gong Qingyong raised his head and raised his gun to shoot, but because the distance was too far, he missed several shots.
"laugh--!"
"RPG!!"
In the dark night, a firelight flickered.
I don't know who yelled first, and everyone hurriedly flew towards the surrounding houses to avoid it.
With a swish sound, the rocket hit the position where Gu Ji was just now, and then there was a loud bang on the ground.
Not waiting for a few people to get up.
Countless bullets were like torrents of rain, sloping down the hillside in the distance.
This rate of fire and stability are definitely a light machine gun!
"There are too many enemies. We have to find a way to kill the drones or run out of the signal blockade range so that Milburn can request CAS close air support, otherwise we will all die here!"
Gu Ji rolled and crawled on the ground to avoid machine gun fire and shouted loudly to his companions.
"how do you want to do it?"
Gong Qingyong asked while tentatively firing back.
"In this case, Palace team, you lead everyone to break out from the west side. I will go to the southwest hillside alone to find the watch team. There are three of them, two snipers, and a technical special police officer. Without a command, it is difficult to take advantage of the close combat. "
"You want to go alone? It's too dangerous!"
Gong Qingyong's eyelids twitched.
In the disadvantageous situation of losing communication, darkness, and being surrounded by extremists, this kid dared to act alone. It was too courageous.
"Gu Ji, I'll go with you!"
Gao Bo, who was hiding behind the wall of the house, heard the conversation between the two and hurriedly put away his gun and prepared to come over.
But as soon as he took a step, he was pushed back by a string of bullets.
"No, it's only 600 meters away. I'll be back soon. The north side is Shalam's main attack direction. It's already very difficult for you to deal with it now. You can't reduce your numbers any more, Stinger!"
Put down the last sentence.
In the darkness, a black shadow passed through the hail of bullets and pounced next to Gu Ji. It was Stinger.
With its help, Gao Bo can at least feel more at ease.
What's more, they couldn't stop Gu Ji's decision at all. One person and one dog had already disappeared at the entrance of the village without looking back.
"Woof! Woof woof!"
On the hillside, the stingers weaved through the bushes and weeds like lightning, heading straight for the watch post on the top of the mountain.
"Da da da……"
Suddenly, Gu Ji heard fierce gunshots in the left area. He shouted a sting, immediately fell down on the grass, and quickly crawled towards the fighting area.
"Damn it! There are too many enemies!"
"Communication hasn't been restored yet!"
"No, all frequency bands are blocked, and there are professional signal jammers on the other side!"
…
Faintly, Gu Ji heard several familiar voices coming from the forest.
So he hurriedly shouted:
"Zhou Yang! Zhao Hua!"
"I think I heard Gu Ji's voice. It's on the back right, Gu Ji! It's you!"
"It's me! You are preparing to retreat, I will find a way to cover you!"
Gu Ji set up his rifle and fired from a lying position. He pulled the trigger and hit an extremist in front of him.
"Gu Ji, the sniper hose of the Second Squadron was hit in the calf by a bullet while covering me and Zhou Yang. It will take time for us to retreat!"
Zhao Hua just finished speaking.
A round of machine gun bullets hit the mound in front of Gu Ji.
If he hadn't been lying on the opposite slope, he would have been beaten to pieces even if there were bushes in the way.
"grass!"
Gu Ji uttered a curse word, his eyes were filled with murderous intent and turned red like blood.
He didn't blame the second team's sniper for being injured at this time.
But it was unimaginable that the terrorists in Shalam could arrive so quickly. Whether it was encirclement, communication, or fire control, they suppressed them in almost all directions, completely cutting off their way of survival.
One possibility: there is a master tactician among Shalam's team;
Another reason is that PM mercenaries are commanding behind the scenes!
It was precisely because of thinking of this that Gu Ji's eyes turned red.
"I'll draw the firepower. You retreat to the northwest. The palace team will meet you there!"
After shouting the last sentence, Gu Ji directly threw a smoke bomb.
With his left hand, he pulled out the Sig Sauer P226 pistol from his waist. With a "click" sound, he quickly loaded the pistol against his belt in the back seat and walked away without looking back.
"ah!"
Gu Ji, who was running wildly, roared loudly, clamped the AK-103 tightly under his arm, squeezed the P226 trigger with his left index finger, and fired with both hands.
The bullets whizzed through the smoke towards the Shalam extremists not far away.
His purpose in doing this was to attract the enemy's attention as much as possible.
Only by attracting most of the enemies over could Zhou Yang and the others successfully retreat with the injured water pipes.
"Gu Ji! Gu..."
"Damn it! The other side is calling!"
"Hurry up! Rush up and kill them all!!"
After rushing out of the smoke area, Gu Ji could no longer hear clearly what Zhao Hua was shouting. Instead, the voices of the extremists became clearer and clearer.
Shalam never dreamed that someone could attack so fast. It was like an owl swooping down and striking with lightning speed.
And, I guess they still can’t tell the difference.
Is it one person or two people?
