Squid Who Loves Diving

Chapter 23 Losing Control to Emotions

The middle-aged man was angry, and willing to take risks, but he still maintained basic thinking skills and never considered using his life to avenge his two companions.

According to his plan, after jumping onto the hood of the jeep, he would use the powerful leg strength of the exoskeleton device to jump high again, avoiding the desperate shots of the enemies in front and behind. Then, he would launch grenades from the air to directly kill the two men and one woman hiding at the front of the car!

During this process, he could also complete a round of submachine gun掃射in mid-air, ensuring that no target was missed.

Next, he would activate the simple jet equipment of the military exoskeleton device to forcibly change direction in the air, not giving the enemies hiding behind the corpse of the Black Swamp Iron Serpent a chance.

Just as the middle-aged man's knees led the auxiliary joints to bend slightly, about to bounce up, a strong thought suddenly flashed in his mind:

"No! I won't!"

He felt that he had to face the enemies who killed his companions head-on, turning them into hornet's nests, and watch them die with fear and regret before he could vent the anger in his heart and truly avenge his companions!

What jumping high and sweeping down was the behavior of a coward, without any sincerity!

A real man would kill the other person face-to-face!

This thought quickly expanded into an unstoppable emotion, causing the middle-aged man to abandon his original plan in an instant.

Of course, he did not completely lose his mind. Wearing the iron-black exoskeleton device, he suddenly squatted down and bent his waist, like a giant lowering his upper body. In this way, the two men and one woman hiding at the front of the car would directly face his metal helmet, his chest armor, and those places covered with auxiliary bones. Only a few gaps could hit his unprotected body.

The next second, he saw the target's eyes, which seemed darker than normal people's.

Shang Jianyao did not try to be brave and gave up aiming. He jumped away to the side with force and continued to roll.

For Jiang Baimian, who was to the side and slightly behind the middle-aged man, the other party's posture was now so perfect that she didn't think at all and pulled the trigger following her instinct.

Bang!

A golden bullet traveled through twenty or thirty meters, grazed the iron-black auxiliary bone, and pierced into the place where the middle-aged man's spine and energy backpack met, slightly to the side.

This was completely consistent with the point of impact Jiang Baimian had predicted, as if she was hitting a target that wouldn't move.

For a sharpshooter like her, this was hardly difficult, even if the distance was increased by another twenty meters, it would not be a problem.

With a puff, a large patch of blood blossoms bloomed on the middle-aged man's back.

In the intense pain that almost paralyzed him, he regained his senses and couldn't believe that he was so pretentious at the critical moment, making almost the worst choice.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Jiang Baimian's second bullet arrived as promised, Bai Chen's burst also slanted into the middle-aged man's abdomen, and Long Yuehong's continuous shooting was blocked by the metal helmet and chest armor, failing to harm the enemy.

The middle-aged man knew that he could not escape, and his expression suddenly became ferocious.

As his thoughts quickly blurred, he prepared to launch grenades and sweep wildly, taking the enemies in front of him to die together.

However, he couldn't make the movement of pulling the trigger no matter what.

Even people who have never learned to shoot, as long as they know certain common sense, should not be unable to make similar movements at this time.

His hands seemed to have died one step ahead of him.

Clang!

The middle-aged man, with the seventy or eighty kilograms of exoskeleton device, fell heavily on the hood of the jeep, and bright red blood quickly polluted the surroundings.

His eyes were wide open, seemingly full of doubt and unwillingness.

The black SUV in the distance, which was guarding the rear, had rushed over frantically after the motorcyclist screamed.

However, it was still a step too late. When it entered the effective shooting range of the crew, two men named Ji Shun and A Yu happened to see the boss's back explode with a ball of blood.

A Yu roared and poked half of his body out of the car window, trying to find the enemy and shoot them.

At this moment, the middle-aged man fell down unusually heavily, causing the jeep to shake obviously.

With a squeak, the black SUV completed a big drift, turning the car sideways.

A Yu was almost thrown out, only because he was wearing bulky clothes and found a support point in time, he did not fly into the air.

Boom!

The black SUV made another big turn and ran wildly in the direction it came from, at a very fast speed.

"What are you doing?" A Yu retracted his body and roared angrily.

Ji Shun, the older man, held the steering wheel and responded loudly:

"Run away!"

"The boss and the others are still there!" A Yu held his "United 202" pistol against Ji Shun's temple, "Take me back!"

He roared, his eyes full of bloodshot.

Ji Shun remained unmoved and shouted again:

"The boss is dead!

"Do you want to die together?"

He almost stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

A Yu's lips moved a few times, and his expression kept changing.

After being stiff for a while, he suddenly threw his arm back and threw his body heavily into the passenger seat.

"You coward!" he cursed angrily.

"I'm also a coward..." His voice gradually lowered, his face full of tears.

...

"Ho, running really fast." Jiang Baimian replaced the magazine of the 9mm "Icemoss" pistol while watching the back of the black SUV about to disappear into the distance, and said with emotion.

She only regretted that she didn't bring the grenade launcher when she got out of the car, otherwise she could have tried to send the fleeing enemy a big firework.

At the jeep, Long Yuehong had finished the bullets in his gun, stopped, bent over, and gasped heavily.

His eyes were unfocused, a piece of confusion, and the spirit of the whole person seemed to have entered a world isolated from the outside.

Bai Chen held the "Orange" rifle, looked around, and breathed a little relief when she saw that there were no other enemies.

Her expression was relatively calm, as if everything that had just happened was only part of her daily life, which she would experience from time to time and was not worth wasting too much emotion on.

She saw the grenade launcher that Jiang Baimian had placed in the passenger seat, but after confirming that the middle-aged man was completely dead and there was no need to replenish the gun, the black SUV had escaped far away. For her, who was not very good at grenade launchers, this had lost its attack value.

There is no need to waste a grenade... Bai Chen withdrew her gaze and looked at Shang Jianyao, who was seven or eight meters away.

She was very puzzled by the middle-aged man's final choice.

Under the circumstances just now, the enemy wearing the exoskeleton device had a complete chance to kill the three of them at the cost of minor or abrasion injuries. Who knew, he was so overwhelmed by anger that he did not play any tactics at all, only recklessness, recklessness, and recklessness.

And at that moment, Shang Jianyao was the only one who made a different reaction and rushed to the side in advance.

Bai Chen pursed her lips and glanced at Jiang Baimian, who was running back:

"Are any of you injured?"

There was a medical kit in the jeep.

Hearing this, Long Yuehong shivered and returned to the real world from that dazed state.

His body trembled due to tension, but this did not prevent him from quickly checking his condition:

"I, I'm fine."

At this time, Shang Jianyao responded with a smile:

"I have a slight headache."

"Maybe the sound of explosions and gunshots have put some pressure on the ears." Bai Chen analyzed from a realistic point of view based on the previous situation.

"Very good." Jiang Baimian, who had returned to the jeep, praised, and then said to Bai Chen, "I have a few abrasions. Give me a bottle of iodine."

After speaking, she took the opportunity to teach Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao:

"In the wilderness, deadly dangers often come from infection and pollution. You can't be careless in this regard just because people who have undergone genetic modification have strong immunity and self-repair abilities."

When Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong nodded, Jiang Baimian took the iodine, disinfected the wound on her hand, and smiled:

"How is it? Wonderful, right? Exciting, right?"

Long Yuehong frowned slightly and said with a pale face:

"Team Leader, how can you describe this kind of thing as wonderful and exciting?"

He only felt scared, sad, and nervous, and didn't want to experience it again.

If there had not been no casualties this time, he felt that he might have collapsed on the spot.

Even so, seeing the three people who had communicated before lying silently on the ground, each with their own tragic situation, he also had an unspeakable feeling.

Jiang Baimian was not angry because Long Yuehong retorted to her. She said half-smiling and half-sighing:

"This is the norm on the greylands, completely different from the situation inside the company.

"When you experience all kinds of battles, you will find that it is so fortunate and happy that you are still alive after each battle, especially when your comrades are also still alive.

"I mainly wanted to give you a feeling of relaxation just now, so that you can get out of the post-war psychological barrier as soon as possible.

"Heh, don't compare with Shang Jianyao. His problem may be more serious, and post-war psychological barriers are fundamentally unsightly."

Shang Jianyao opened his mouth, as if he wanted to declare that he had no problem, and at this time, Bai Chen had pushed the corpse wearing the exoskeleton device off the hood, causing it to make a heavy thumping sound.

Bai Chen immediately opened the hood and checked the condition of the vehicle.

Inside the front of the car, there were several bullets stuck.

"How is it?" Jiang Baimian asked.

"It is indeed damaged... I don't know if it can be repaired. I'll try it first." Bai Chen pulled the grey scarf around her neck, returned to the trunk, and took out a plastic toolbox containing repair tools. "I hope it can be."

Jiang Baimian turned to Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong and said:

"You clean up the battlefield, collect valuable items, I am responsible for guarding the surroundings to prevent accidents, um, start here first."

"Okay." Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong walked to the corpse wearing the exoskeleton device at the same time.

If they can strip off the exoskeleton device as soon as possible and master its use skills, they will have a good grasp to deal with any situation that may arise next.
