Chapter 38 Breakthrough

Sure enough, Kelt did not choose to wait, but launched his troops ahead of schedule!

Zhang Wei slammed the table hard and cursed, "Damn it, Xiao, you helped them get the classified information, and those Hesha people don't care about our lives!"

Han Xiao, however, had expected this. His expression was as usual, which surprised the two men as to why he was so calm. He ordered Lin Yao and Lambert in his headset, "Continue to lie low. Remember to protect yourselves while carrying out the mission. We're retreating first."

"Understood!"

Zhang Wei and Li Yalin had solemn expressions. Now the heavy truck was not far from the Dark Crow Valley base. When Dark Crow Valley entered a state of war, it began to increase its defense strength at all costs, and the heavy truck's tracks would soon be discovered.

There was no time to delay.

"Li Yalin, you drive!"

Li Yalin was a martial artist, lacking ranged attack capabilities in a fast-moving vehicle, so she had no objection to this arrangement.

Han Xiao and Zhang Wei stayed in the cargo container, able to fight back.

Li Yalin didn't bother to hide her tracks. She slammed on the accelerator, the heavy truck's engine roared, and the tires churned up dirt, starting with a rumble.

Soon, a series of engine sounds came from afar, making people's hearts tremble. Han Xiao looked out through the truck window. A large group of Germination armored SUVs was chasing after them. The headlights of the pursuers were in sight. There were as many as dozens of vehicles, with vehicle-mounted machine guns equipped on the roofs.

"We've been discovered," Zhang Wei thought with a sinking heart.

Ignoring the heavy truck's bumps, Han Xiao opened the weapons case and began to prepare his weapons. A chase was inevitable!

"Yalin, drive faster!" Zhang Wei shouted.

"I know!" Li Yalin bit her lip, constantly shifting gears to accelerate. The heavy truck's engine power was fully opened, emitting a beast-like roar. The huge non-slip tires left deep ruts in the forest. The mountain terrain was undulating, and the dirt road was rugged. Even though the chassis' air spring suspension repeatedly removed the vibration of the wheels, the cargo container was still very bumpy.

Han Xiao looked out through the cargo container's window. The Germination armored SUVs were getting closer and closer.

"Can't you go any faster?!" Zhang Wei urged.

"This is a heavy truck, not a sports car!" Li Yalin said, exasperated.

Han Xiao suddenly said, "There are four buttons next to the gear lever, all for nitrous acceleration."

"You installed nitrous acceleration on a heavy truck?!" Li Yalin was stunned, then became excited. She was about to press the button, but Han Xiao quickly stopped her.

"This is a mountain forest environment. Aren't you afraid of a car crash? Wait until we get to the plains to accelerate!"

Da da da da da—

The heavy machine guns on dozens of SUVs opened fire, the muzzles spewing thick flames. The bullets chased and swept all the way, completely without accuracy due to the distance, but the firepower coverage was extremely wide. Trees were broken off one by one, and stray bullets dinged and clanged against the outer armor of the cargo container, creating countless sparks.

Li Yalin glanced at the rearview mirror. The next moment, the rearview mirror was shattered by a stray bullet. She cursed inwardly, maneuvering the clumsy heavy truck around the trees to dodge the bullets. The car became very bumpy. She was bounced around in the driver's seat, her buttocks aching. The cargo container was even more chaotic, with parts being shaken and flying everywhere. Han Xiao hurriedly used locks to secure various pieces of equipment and weapons cases.

The two tied-up captives huddled in a corner, trembling.

Dusk, the setting sun like blood.

The chase between dozens of armored SUVs and a black heavy truck continued fiercely. The heavy truck fled desperately, the pursuers closely following, bullets sweeping, piercing through the forest, the sound of gunfire echoing through the mountains. The engine sounds of so many vehicles mixed together, like a mad dragon, quickly swimming in the mountains. Wanderers in the Crow Forest town, far away, could vaguely hear the movement, and looked in shock at the source of the sound.

Closer and closer… closer and closer!

Suddenly, a heavy truck burst out of the mountain forest and rushed into the Crow Forest town. Like a charging rhino, it crashed into a small building, directly turning the building into ruins. Obvious deformation occurred in the front anti-collision bar of the truck!

The heavy truck howled through the streets. The wanderers on the street turned pale in horror, rolling and crawling to the side. After the heavy truck passed, they dared to peek at the rear of the heavy truck with horrified expressions. Before they could begin to discuss, more SUVs rushed into the town, recklessly chasing, and a large number of buildings were knocked down, crackling and banging, creating one ruin after another.

Bullets flew horizontally, and many wanderers were shot to death by stray bullets, their screams filling the sky, and the ground was full of blood-stained splendor.

When the last ray of afterglow of dusk disappeared and night fell, the heavy truck finally rushed out of the edge of the mountain forest and came to a flat plain. The pursuers' headlights formed a light dragon, swimming on the vast plain, and the cannon fire from the muzzles became an eye-catching source of light.

In the plain terrain, SUVs could more easily catch up.

The distance slowly narrowed, six hundred meters, five hundred meters, four hundred meters!

"Zhang Wei, change into armor!"

Zhang Wei's spirit was lifted. He had already put it on in advance. As soon as he activated it, he immediately felt the changes after the modification. The exoskeleton provided power for his movements, finally relieving him of effort, and the vision became an analysis interface, with a series of battlefield data flashing out, which could also assist in aiming, making everything clear at a glance.

Zhang Wei's eyes widened in surprise.

"So strong!"

Han Xiao was loading high-explosive sniper rounds into the heavy sniper rifle. Hearing this, he said calmly, "This is just the most basic modification."

At this moment, Zhang Wei had only one thought, the 360,000 was well spent!

Ding ding dang dang, the sound of bullets hitting the heavy truck's armor became more and more dense!

"Fire back!"

Han Xiao roared, and Zhang Wei responded by kicking open the cargo container's door. The vision suddenly opened up, the face mask blocking his ferocious expression. He raised his double-handed, large-caliber, triple-barreled machine gun and roared, firing!

"Tu tu tu tu—"

The high-frequency bursts of gunfire were deafening, the rich muzzle flames spewing wildly, the shell casings being automatically ejected, clanging and dropping to the ground, and the large-caliber bullets were like long rainbows, dragging fire, shooting into the armored vehicle team!

Boom—the bulletproof glass of two SUVs shattered, and the people in the cars were shot into sieves.

Zhang Wei's thigh's outer magazine was equipped with two long bullet chains, which trailed all the way behind him, filling an entire box. These were all the ammunition that Han Xiao had prepared for him, enough for the prototype Warring States Armor to vent its firepower wantonly.

Dozens of armored SUVs hurriedly dispersed their formation, dodging Zhang Wei's strafing, while returning fire with vehicle-mounted machine guns.

However, Zhang Wei stood in the cargo container doorway wearing armor. Han Xiao had mixed Tiberium alloy into the outer armor, and the bullets dinged and clanged against his body, the durability dropping very slowly. Zhang Wei also held the hexagonal giant shield behind his back in front of him, blocking the firepower, and most of the bullets were blocked by his reef-like body.

Han Xiao raised his sniper rifle and fired high-explosive bullets one by one, igniting the chasing vehicles and catching the enemy drivers off guard. The flames burned the internal engines of the SUVs, and one vehicle after another stalled.

But more SUVs quickly approached, and the heavy truck's outer armor was shot with dense bullet holes.

This distance was enough!

Han Xiao's eyes flashed. He threw away the heavy sniper rifle, took out the weapon case containing the bamboo-copter delayed high-explosive mines, and threw them out as if they were free. One by one, the delayed-explosion mines flew close to the ground, just flying under the chassis of the SUVs and exploding!

"Boom—"

The armored SUVs were lifted from the bottom by the delayed explosions. Under the action of the unyielding kinetic energy, they somersaulted forward, rotating 180 degrees before landing on their roofs, burning fiercely. The fuel tanks were ignited, causing a secondary explosion, and the people inside were almost completely dead.

Kill notifications frantically flashed on the panel.

Every time a delayed explosion overturned an SUV, it could kill at least four to eight enemies in the car. In addition to the experience of destroying the vehicle, one car could provide Han Xiao with 5,000-7,000 experience points, which made him even more enthusiastic about blowing them up.

The prepared explosive bombs had finally come in handy!

Han Xiao didn't count how many people he had killed. After blowing up another car, a new prompt appeared on the panel.

[【Head-on Conflict】 is complete, you gained 35,000 experience!]

"Ah!"

Screams rang in his ears. Han Xiao hurriedly came back to his senses and found that the two captives had been shot to death by stray bullets. His heart sank.

"The captives are dead!"

The firepower of the pursuing SUV team became sparse, and the people in the cars were frightened by the firepower contained in this heavy truck.

One heavy truck had damaged more than twenty of their armored vehicles, which was simply appalling.

Li Yalin suddenly became excited, "I see the Hesha army!"

Han Xiao looked out. Under the night, a large number of Hesha military vehicles appeared in front, slowly driving over, brightly lit.

…

"Report Commander, there is a small group of troops ahead engaged in a firefight!"

Kelt looked at the camera screen inside the command vehicle and was immediately shocked by the scene before him.

More than twenty armored SUVs were chasing a tattered heavy truck. Looking at the places they passed, they clearly left a trail of overturned SUVs along the way, burning fiercely, like continuous beacon fires.

Kelt was suspicious and uncertain.

The firepower of this team of Thirteenth Bureau agents was so fierce!

Agent teams with strong head-on combat capabilities were extremely rare, comparable to the firepower of a modern army, small in number and flexible in action. These were generally ace troops. He suppressed the surprise in his heart, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes flickered uncertainly.

Ye Fan, Wen Na, and others also discovered this scene and were shocked.

A heavy truck was holding off the firepower of a convoy, and had taken out half of the pursuers. What kind of firepower was this!

"That heavy truck has taken at least a thousand bullets, and it's still moving!"

Riddled with holes, it could still run like a wild dog unleashed. That heavy truck must have been specially modified. They personally saw a grenade hit the heavy truck's armor, but that piece of armor only produced a moderate deformation. If it were an ordinary car, it would have been blown up!

What kind of metal was that?!

Too hard!

Even the members of the Thirteenth Bureau were stunned.

When did Zhang Wei's team become so fierce?

Could a mechanic bring such a big improvement to the team?!
