“Cough, cough, cough…” A weak cough sounded not far away. Han Xiao walked over and saw Hu Fei, who had been shot five or six times, was not completely dead. His breathing was weak, and it was clear he couldn't be saved.

Han Xiao saw the Type 73 Hornet in Hu Fei's hand, and he understood everything. For a moment, his emotions were complicated. "I told you it was dangerous, why didn't you listen?"

Hu Fei trembled, reached out, and tightly grabbed Han Xiao's trouser leg, crying bitterly, his cries heart-wrenching:

"I shouldn't have been greedy! I… I regret it so much! I was wrong… I was really wrong…"

Hu Fei pointed shakily at Kairo, "Don't trust him… he betrayed my uncle, Hu Hongjun…" As he spoke, he coughed up another mouthful of blood.

"You can't be saved, I can only make you suffer less." Han Xiao shook his head, reached out, and snapped Hu Fei's neck.

"Don't listen to his nonsense…" Kairo hurriedly tried to defend himself, but Han Xiao suddenly stood up, drew his gun and fired, the bullet piercing Kairo's head.

Kairo knelt down in astonishment, dying with his eyes wide open.

"Everyone is dead, you can go down and keep them company."

Han Xiao lowered his eyes.

Ever since discovering the tragedy at the gathering place, the killing intent in Han Xiao's heart had been constantly rising, but it was restrained by his cold reason, like a fierce tiger imprisoned in a cage. The more irritable he felt, the calmer he became.

Han Xiao came to Hu Hongjun's body and looked in the direction Hu Hongjun was pointing, which was the direction the experimental subject team had chased after, with tracks leading deep into the forest.

It was completely opposite the direction he had left!

Hu Hongjun had not betrayed him.

Han Xiao's heart suddenly twitched, as if a nail had been driven into it, causing a piercing pain.

Even at the very end, Hu Hongjun had not betrayed him, an outsider… Was it worth it?

[You have triggered E-class mission [Revenge]]

[Mission prompt: Kill the experimental subject team]

[Mission reward: 15000 experience]

Han Xiao stopped looking at the bodies of Hu Hongjun and An, walked into the tent, and took out the old bayonet rifle that Hu Hongjun regarded as a treasure. It was hard to tell if it was his imagination, but a black light flashed across the surface of the bayonet rifle.

"You really want to avenge your old partner, don't you?"

Han Xiao's face was tense. He took out all the guns in his backpack and disassembled them, along with the bayonet rifle, into a pile of parts. Using the bayonet rifle as the main body, he gradually modified it into shape with these parts.

Both [Simple Repair] and [Simple Enhancement Modification] had reached level ten. Although the names were a bit lame, they were the core skills of the Mechanic class in the early stages, and the effects at max level were outstanding. Han Xiao was adept at modifying basic firearms.

[Bayonet Rifle (Sniper Modified)]

[Weight: 8.3 pounds]

[Additional Effect: Precision - Stable trajectory, extremely low wind influence]

[Additional Effect: Penetration - After special modification, it can use sniper caliber bullets, with stronger penetration]

[Note: It yearns for revenge.]

Counting the ammunition, there were only twenty-five sniper bullets, all seized from Silver Blade. There were four tracks on the ground, representing two vehicles for the pursuers, with a maximum of no more than twelve people.

Han Xiao carried the gun on his back and headed in the direction the pursuers had left, his figure disappearing into the woods.

It was naturally impossible to outrun a car on foot, and Han Xiao didn't plan to chase after them.

Hu Hongjun had pointed them in the wrong direction. Once the pursuers couldn't find his trail, there was an eighty percent chance they would return the same way. All Han Xiao had to do was ambush them on this inevitable route.

Admittedly, if Han Xiao turned around and continued to run, the enemy would never find him, but the voice in his heart told him that if he didn't use the enemy's blood to vent the almost unbearable anger, he would regret it.

Even without the mission, he would have made the same choice.

"Germination!"

Gritting his teeth, his killing intent was terrifying.

…

The forest at night was pitch black, and a long wolf howl came from the distant depths.

Han Xiao lay quietly in the forest, his eyes slightly closed, the bayonet rifle placed beside him. He had maintained this posture for three hours, like a patient hunter waiting for his prey to step into the trap.

A series of engine roars quickly approached. Han Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, and four rapidly moving headlights appeared within range.

"Here they come." Han Xiao's tone was like greeting a guest at home, calm as water.

He put on the single-line infrared night vision device seized from the Night Owl squad, and two orange-red car outlines jumped into view.

Han Xiao pulled the bolt, put the target into the sniper scope, and carefully adjusted the sight distance.

He held his breath and concentrated, aiming for a full eight seconds before pulling the trigger!

In the flash of fire and muzzle flame, the golden sniper bullet leaped out of the barrel, passed through the gaps in the trees, and flew hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, accurately hitting the tire of the speeding vehicle.

"Bang!"

A flat tire!

The leading armored off-road vehicle crashed into a tree with a bang, and the car behind it was forced to stop as well.

Number One got out of the car with a dizzy head and cursed, "Can't you drive?"

"Captain, the tire is flat."

"How could a low-pressure tire burst?!"

A team member squatted down and said in horror, "There's a bullet embedded in it!"

"Ambush!" Number One's brain buzzed.

Just then, a gunshot rang out again hundreds of meters away, and the team member who was checking the wheel had his head blown open in front of Number One, splattering Number One with blood.

"It's a sniper!"

"Quick, find the enemy's position!"

"Everyone, be alert, hide behind the car!"

But this was the first real battle the experimental subject team had participated in. They fumbled for cover according to the battlefield theory they had learned on weekdays. In the process, the deadly gunshot rang out again, and another team member was shot in the head.

Number One roared, "Lie down!"

All the team members hurriedly lay down, and the gunshots stopped, followed by a solemn silence. Everyone was terrified, only Number One could barely remain calm, and hurriedly called the organization for help through a handheld terminal.

The situation stalled. No one dared to get up and expose themselves to the sniper's field of vision, as if there was a demon in the darkness, waiting to harvest lives at any moment.

"Who is attacking us?"

"Not sure!"

"It's so dark around, the other party must have night vision goggles!"

"What do we do now?"

"Just lie here and wait for reinforcements."

Number One shouted, "Don't be stupid, won't the enemy escape? There is only one enemy, but we are like a group of frightened ostriches burying our heads in the sand. What will the organization think of us cowards?"

The experimental subject team members' expressions changed.

Number One said fiercely, "Just one enemy, we have cars, guns, and manpower, can't we win?"

"That's right, we must fight back."

"First, determine the sniper's location!"

A team member gritted his teeth, quickly stood up and then lay down, trying to lure the sniper to expose his position, but a deadly bullet hit his heart almost instantly. Blood bloomed, and the propulsive force sent him flying several meters. After landing, there was silence, immediately dispelling the other team members' idea of imitating him.

Number One felt a chill down his spine. With such accurate marksmanship, who exactly was the enemy?!

The team member did not sacrifice in vain. The experimental subject team saw the fleeting muzzle flash in the darkness.

"Found him, three hundred meters to the south!"

"Get in the car and charge over!"

…

From the night vision goggles, Han Xiao saw the huddled enemies stand up at the same time and run wildly towards the other intact armored off-road vehicle. He immediately understood the enemy's plan, wanting to rely on the armored vehicle to charge over.

The thermal imaging showed there were still seven enemies, clearly betting on the sniper's slow rate of fire, preparing to sacrifice one or two people to get everyone into the car.

Han Xiao couldn't kill seven people in an instant. He calmly fired two shots, killing two more enemies, and watched helplessly as the enemies got into the car. The armored off-road vehicle's engine roared, charging straight ahead and rapidly approaching.

The bayonet rifle couldn't penetrate the thick armor, and it was impossible to aim at the enemy's hub from the front.

Han Xiao was alone and immediately found himself in a dangerous situation.

"The correct tactic." Han Xiao's eyes were deep, "Too easy to guess, unfortunately."
