Cave Refuge-Chapter 200 - 199: Assault on Nameless Mountain (2)_1

The moment Dong Tianyu’s sniper rifle was aimed at the special ops team member carrying high explosives, that team member suddenly felt a surge of anxious alarm.

As a martial artist, he was attuned to his sixth sense. Just as he was about to sway sideways to check if this feeling would dissipate, a ’thud’ sound came from not far away, and the team member’s head exploded instantly.

Gory remnants, a mixture of red and white, splattered on the surrounding team members.

Upon realizing that their comrade had been struck in the head, the surrounding team members instantly scattered. As there was no available cover, they could only reduce the accuracy of their enemy’s aim by moving in an irregular manner.

As soon as Captain Wu turned his head and saw that the team member carrying high explosives was dead, he immediately guessed that their attacker was either Dong Tianyu, or one of the survivors residing behind the metal door in Refuge Center on the mountain.

Even though they had come to stir trouble, Captain Wu hadn’t expected that Dong Tianyu would open fire and kill without even a warning.

Despite the constant catastrophes, order was still maintained in Pengcheng. Firearms were a prohibited item. Many survivors had managed to get firearms through various channels, but handguns were the most anyone had managed to acquire.

The special ops team member familiar with firearms knew just by the sound that the bullet had been shot from a sniper rifle equipped with a silencer.

There were quite a few survivors with guns during this period, but few dared to use them openly, let alone to kill.

The majority of the survivors who had purchased firearms did so in order to deter others in these challenging times, ensuring adversaries knew they had the capacity for mutual destruction; it was essentially a means of self-defense.

Although the sniper rifle fitted with a silencer made a very small sound when fired, the surviving members of the special ops team were all martial artists, highly sensitive to their surroundings, and they had pinpointed the direction of the sound almost instantly.

As the commander of the special ops team, Captain Wu quickly made the next arrangements.

"Thorn Snake, Dark Spider, provide suppressive fire. Hyena, Mole, stay alert. The rest follow me to take out the enemy."

Hearing Captain Wu’s arrangements, the team members swiftly dropped their backpacks to the ground. Without the weight, their movements became much more flexible.

The experienced Captain Wu knew that the most important thing in this situation was to react swiftly, rather than rely on elaborate tactics.

The enemies were attacking them from the shadows and there were no nearby objects to shield them, so there was no time to discuss tactics slowly. A powerful and decisive action was the most effective way to respond.

Seeing four of them stay where they were and the remaining three charging towards him, Dong Tianyu didn’t aim at these three, but locked onto the remaining special ops member carrying high explosives with his Divine Sense.

A ’thud’ was once again echoed in the ears of all the team members.

’Bang!’

Even though Mole was constantly moving irregularly to the left and right, Dong Tianyu, as adept as a godly marksman, was unerring in his aim when locked onto him with his Divine Sense.

The moment Mole’s head exploded, not more than a few seconds had passed since the last team member’s death.

Captain Wu and the other two team members were now so close to Dong Tianyu’s position that they could clearly hear the mechanical sounds of his sniper rifle ejecting shell casings and reloading rounds. They could see the faint outline of Dong Tianyu.

In order to prevent Dong Tianyu from firing again, the three instinctively lifted their submachine guns and, in strong coordination, aimed in three different directions and opened fire.

The bullets fired blocked all possible routes of escape. Regardless of which way Dong Tianyu tried to evade, he would be hit.

It seemed as if the enemy had deliberately left Dong Tianyu a space to drop to the ground and dodge the bullets, but under his Divine Sense, the not-too-distant Thorn Snake and Dark Spider were perfectly synchronized in aiming their sniper rifles towards him. One was aiming at Dong Tianyu’s chest, and the other at the ground beneath his feet.

Their team had survived countless battles and could coordinate flawlessly. They knew intuitively where to point their muzzles after countless battles, even without a clearly designated target.

At this point, Dong Tianyu had nowhere to hide from the incoming bullets from all four directions. It seemed inevitable that he would get hit.

However, things didn’t go as planned. At the moment the special ops team members opened fire, Dong Tianyu seemingly conjured a barricade made from numerous bags of rice in front of himself.

The bullets aimed to constrain his movement all hit the barricade. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The constant ’whizz-whizz’ sound indicated that the bullets had penetrated the rice bags but had not harmed Dong Tianyu, who was hiding behind them.

The moment the bullets hit the rice bags, while the special ops members were still surprised as to how they appeared, Dong Tianyu suddenly jumped high and employed a trick from shooting games: jump sniping.

’Thud!’

The Thorn Snake, who was about to reload, had his head blown off with another precise shot to the head.

As the remaining team members raised their firearms to shoot at Dong Tianyu, he was back behind the rice bags again.

As Dong Tianyu touched down safely, he expected Captain Wu and his team to flank him from the left and right, but suddenly saw in his Divine Sense that the three of them had not separated after closing the distance.

The three didn’t even get close to Dong Tianyu for close-combat. Instead, they directly pulled out hand grenades from their bodies, intending to blow Dong Tianyu up.

Their action was actually correct. Since Dong Tianyu had fired only three shots but had managed to score headshots each time, his marksmanship was undoubtedly excellent.

Even if the three closed in for close-combat, there was a likelihood that they could be counter-killed by Dong Tianyu while trying to kill him.

This operation was not meant to leave any survivors. Therefore, for safety reasons, the three decided to directly kill the ambush sniper, Dong Tianyu, with the hand grenades.

Their tactics were correct. If Dong Tianyu didn’t have his Divine Sense to monitor their every move, he may have been caught off guard and blown up by their abrupt grenade throw.

But Dong Tianyu did have Divine Sense. The moment the three released the triggers of their firearms and single-handedly pulled the pin of their grenades, the rice bags in front of him vanished and Dong Tianyu was instantly before them.

However, at this point, the sniper rifle that Dong Tianyu had just held was gone, replaced by two ’Type 54’ handguns.

Actually, this type of gun had the most extensive circulation in Daxia, not because it was highly popular, but because it was the standard weapon of Daxia’s constables.
