“Leader, we’ve lost contact with Ling Yun and Cang Feng. What should we do next?” At this moment, a fully armed man reported the situation to Gao Qiwen.
The original plan was for Ling Yun and Cang Feng to think of a way to break through one of the defense lines of the safety fortress. This way, they would be able to take down Ye Xingchen and the others in one fell swoop. Otherwise, charging through their incomparably sturdy steel defense line would be no different from sending themselves to their deaths.
Besides, he didn’t know what was going on over there. Without understanding the enemy, there was no way to make the right response. At this moment, they were forced into a corner.
“Order all the troops to find a place to stay not far from Ye Xingchen’s base. We’ll make new plans.”
“It seems that we can’t attack by force.” Gao Qiwen shook his head. The battle plan should have been carried out long ago, but Ling Yun and Cang Feng didn’t get any valuable information, which led to the current dilemma.
It was not that he had never thought of plundering those smaller bases, but it was meaningless.
In the next hour, the forces that had planted spies lost contact with their own people. They all knew what this meant.
Through the information sent out by the spies, they knew how strong was the defense of Ye Xingchen’s base. It would be very difficult to break through.
Now that the spies had been killed, it was impossible for them to get inside cooperation.
Many forces were secretly anticipating, hoping that the other forces would fight with Ye Xingchen’s base first. First, they wanted to understand the strength of Ye Xingchen’s base, and second, they wanted to reap the benefits.
At this time, in a small village five kilometers away from Ye Xingchen’s fortress, Gao Qiwen’s troops had set up camp. They had brought all their supplies with them, vowing to fight Ye Xingchen to the death.
As a retired member of the special forces, Gao Qiwen’s hands were stained with the blood of countless people. At first, the people in the village did not agree to let them live there, but Gao Qiwen’s troops led a group of people and chased them out. They did not care if these ordinary people lived or died.
This was the result of the lack of rules and order. Power was the thing that determined everything.
Ye Xingchen looked at everything outside the safety fortress quietly. He knew that the forces behind Ling Yun and Cang Feng were coming, but he was not worried at all. He would deal with whatever came his way. Now that he had so many capable people under him, he would just die of mortification if he lost.
“Bark, Master, I saw a group of militants attacking us. There are about 30 of them.”
Now, Ye Xingchen liked to bring Little Black with him wherever he went. Being able to predict any unfavorable scene in advance was really insanely useful.
Ye Xingchen originally wanted to go outside the defense line to ambush them, but he thought that it was still too dangerous.
“Bark, Master, they’re already within two kilometers of the safety fortress.”
“Very good, they are finally here.” Ye Xingchen clenched his fists tightly. He was also holding back rage in his heart. How dare everyone come here to be a spy?! They must pay a heavy price.
“Captain Cang Jian, we are two kilometers away from Ye Xingchen’s fortress. Should we continue?”
“Find cover and wait for my order.”
The man named Cang Jian was Cang Feng’s elder brother. This time, he requested to take the initiative to fight to avenge his younger brother. At the same time, their team was also the most elite force in Dragon Lake Base. They had gathered the most superpowered warriors.
“Little Ye, they stopped 200 meters away from the place where the bomb was buried. Should we detonate it now?
“Detonate.” Ye Xingchen didn’t expect these people to be so cautious, but he couldn’t wait any longer. If he waited any longer, they might discover something unusual, and then all his efforts would be in vain.
“Boom!” A series of earth-shattering explosions rang out.
“Get down!” Cang Jian roared. As expected of a seasoned warrior, he reacted very quickly.
However, no matter how fast they were, how could they be faster than the shock waves of the bomb? With a loud sound, 300 kilograms of explosives exploded at the same time. In an instant, flames soared into the sky. They were only a few hundred meters away from the explosion point. Some people did not have time to react and were blown away by the shock waves.
In an instant, more than half of the people were engulfed by the flames and turned into charred corpses. Some people were on their last breaths even if they were not killed by the explosion.
At this moment, one of the team members struggled to get up. There were still some ice cubes left on his hands. When the heat wave hit them, he built a huge ice wall in time to protect half of them from the heat wave.
The others stood up with difficulty. Although they survived, the impact of the explosion was too strong. Everyone was more or less injured.
They looked at their fallen comrades and did not know what to say. All they could do was feel endless anger.
They had never thought that Ye Xingchen would have so many explosives. Although they were only ordinary explosives, with so many tons, even the superpowered people could not withstand the explosion.
“Everyone, retreat! Retreat!” Cang Jian quickly controlled his emotions and didn’t just stand there foolishly.
“Bang!” A bullet hit one of the team members, causing blood to spurt out.
“Damn it, he can still hit the target so accurately from two thousand meters away.” As he spoke, he pulled the bullet out from his heart. The bullet had only penetrated halfway into his body and did not cause any substantial damage.
“Just like Big Brother Zhao, his body is so tough.” Ye Xingchen wasn’t surprised. These mutants who had a military career were usually like Zhao Hao, their body functions became extremely powerful, whether it was strength, speed, or reaction.
Ye Xingchen wanted to shoot again, but they were no longer in the scope.
Cang Jian led the remaining ten or so members of the team to hide at the foot of a mountain. The originally high-spirited and confident team was defeated. This was the first time they had encountered such a powerful opponent on a mission.
At this moment, everyone had yet to recover from the explosion just now. They panted heavily and looked at the Cang Jian in a daze, waiting for the next order.
Cang Jian was also very confused. He did not go deep into the enemy’s territory and thought that he was already very cautious. If it was in the past, he would have directly rushed over.
Little did they know that Ye Xingchen’s prophecy dog had already predicted their arrival time and route. If they told others, no one would believe that there was a dog in the world who had awakened the ability to predict the future.
Their original plan was to dig an underground tunnel outside Ye Xingchen’s fortress and bury the explosives around it.
They were carrying TNT explosives, which were many times more powerful than the explosives from before. Even if they could not destroy Ye Xingchen’s fortress, they could still threaten them at a critical moment..
