Chapter 280 Explosion Of The Landmine



Wang Chao appeared behind Sang Biao, his gaze icy and chilling.

His voice was like the scythe of death, sending shivers down the spine.

Sang Biao trembled all over, horrified.

When he had approached earlier, no one had noticed his presence. He had only seen Guan Zhilin standing alone here.

After firing the gun, he remained vigilant, alert to everything around him.

However, he had not seen, nor even sensed, someone appearing behind him.

How was this possible?

"Who?" Sang Biao growled, then turned around, holding the gun and aiming it behind him.

Click!

As he turned, Wang Chao had already made the first move. He struck Sang Biao's arm with a palm, completely shattering the bones.

Sang Biao cried out in pain, and the firearm in his hand fell to the ground.

With lightning speed, Wang Chao grabbed Sang Biao's arm, performed a shoulder throw, and sent Sang Biao flying.

Immediately, he seized the gun, pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The bullet, like lightning, struck the explosive on Sang Biao's body.

Boom!

The bomb exploded, flames shooting into the sky, engulfing Sang Biao.

After crashing down, Sang Biao had turned into a human torch, lying on the ground, already dead before he could even let out a scream.

Without even glancing at Sang Biao, Wang Chao disassembled the gun into pieces and tossed it aside.

Then, he approached Guan Zhilin, looking at her injured foot, his brows slightly furrowing.

"How did you end up here?" Guan Zhilin looked at Wang Chao, her eyes filled with astonishment.

She knew that Wang Chao was highly skilled in medicine and capable of reviving the dead. The scar removal cream he had given her before had worked wonders.

However, she never expected Wang Chao to be so powerful, instantly killing Sang Biao with just a single encounter.

Decisive!

Without hesitation!

Such skills were undoubtedly professional!

"I just happened to pass by. I saw you chasing the culprit, so I followed to see if I could help," Wang Chao replied truthfully.

"I stepped on a landmine and can't leave. Don't worry about me, just run. My foot is losing strength," Guan Zhilin said, her expression pained, gritting her teeth as sweat poured down her forehead.

If she hadn't been injured, she could have stood for a long time.

But with her other foot injured, she had no way to endure for so long.

"Stay still."

Wang Chao glanced at the ground beneath Guan Zhilin's foot and walked over to Sang Biao's corpse. Amidst the flames, he found a red-hot dagger that had been burnt.

He took out the dagger, buried it in the sand, and waited for a minute for it to cool down before removing it and approaching Guan Zhilin.

He pierced through Guan Zhilin's shoe heel with the dagger and held it in place with both hands. He said, "Okay, you can lift your foot now."

"Are you sure the landmine won't explode?" Guan Zhilin asked with doubt.

"It won't!" Wang Chao affirmed.

Guan Zhilin was skeptical but she had no strength left to resist. She had to trust Wang Chao's words and moved her foot away, letting it drop to the ground.

The landmine did not explode!

Guan Zhilin finally breathed a sigh of relief, collapsing onto the ground, panting heavily and covered in sweat.

At that moment, she felt as if she had walked through the gates of hell, her heart pounding irregularly.

"Officer Guan, the danger hasn't passed yet. Can you run a bit further and find a big stone?" Wang Chao suggested.

Guan Zhilin finally reacted and straightened her body, saying, "Okay, okay, just wait a moment. I'll go find a stone right away."

After speaking, she endured the pain and limped away.

She ran for more than two hundred meters but couldn't find a larger stone, growing increasingly anxious.

If she couldn't find a stone, Wang Chao would have to hold the landmine with his hands. If he couldn't hold on for long due to exhaustion, the landmine might explode, putting Wang Chao's life in danger.

Boom!

At that moment, an earth-shattering explosion erupted in Wang Chao's direction.

"Wang Chao!"

Guan Zhilin's expression changed dramatically as she immediately turned to look in that direction, her heart pounding with anxiety.

Boom boom boom!!

Following that initial explosion, a series of explosions resounded one after another, shaking the mountains and causing the entire mountain to tremble.

Watching the explosions and the towering flames, Guan Zhilin's face turned pale.

Wasn't there only one landmine?

Why were there sudden consecutive explosions?

With so many bombs exploding, wasn't Wang Chao in danger?

"Wang Chao!"

Guan Zhilin watched the flames, her body trembling, her complexion even paler. It felt as if her heart had been stabbed with a knife, causing intense pain.

She immediately realized the situation and rushed towards the direction where Wang Chao was.

Before she could run far, she was struck by a severe pain from her wound, causing her to fall to the ground.

Ignoring the pain, she gritted her teeth, got up, and continued running towards the explosions.

At that moment, Wang Chao suddenly appeared in front of her, looking at her with a shocked expression. He said, "Officer Guan, there have been explosions over there. Why are you running towards that direction?"

"Are you okay?"

Guan Zhilin was taken aback and immediately stopped, looking at Wang Chao up and down.

"I'm fine," Wang Chao opened his arms and looked calm.

Guan Zhilin was dumbfounded.

She stared at Wang Chao, full of disbelief, murmuring, "How did you survive the explosion impact of the landmine?"

She was very familiar with that type of landmine. As soon as you let go, it would immediately explode. Even if you reacted quickly, you couldn't escape the blast shockwave.

Moreover, there was no cover in the terrain just now, so it was impossible to jump behind any obstruction after letting go.

How did Wang Chao come out unscathed?

Most importantly, Wang Chao's clothes were not damaged at all.

What exactly happened just now?

Wang Chao smiled and casually said, "It's nothing, just a simple maneuver."

"As long as I'm faster than the blast shockwave, it can't harm me."

"You don't need to worry about me. You should be concerned about your injuries."

After speaking, he crouched down and carefully examined Guan Zhilin's wound.

Being shot at close range, the wound was deep and severe.

The bullet got stuck between the fibula and the tibia, and the powerful impact had shattered the fibula and the peroneal artery.

Due to the bullet being lodged, the peroneal artery was blocked, resulting in minimal bleeding.

"Does it hurt?" Wang Chao asked.

"It hurts a lot, but it won't kill me," Guan Zhilin replied.

"I'll bandage it for you, and then you can go to the hospital for surgery to properly treat the wound," Wang Chao said.

He had silver needles that could stop bleeding and provide anesthesia to remove the bullet.

However, once the bullet was removed from the wound, the peroneal artery would bleed profusely, with unimaginable consequences.

They needed surgical tools to perform the operation.

At the very least, a bypass surgery needed to be performed on the peroneal artery to ensure adequate blood supply to the lower limb.

Otherwise, if the peroneal artery necrotized and the blood supply to the lower limb was insufficient, Guan Zhilin's foot would deteriorate over time, and in severe cases, amputation would be required.

"No, I have to continue chasing ahead. I can't let those criminals escape," Guan Zhilin gritted her teeth.

After speaking, she took off her outer garment and tore it into strips to apply pressure and bandage the wound, preventing further bleeding.

During the process, she endured excruciating pain, drenched in sweat.

"Why don't you make a call and arrange for the Flying Tigers or other special forces to intervene?" Wang Chao suggested.

Guan Zhilin endured the pain and said, "I've already contacted the Flying Tigers, but it will take time for them to arrive."

"These people are fleeing into this forest, and someone must be here to assist them."

"If I do not catch up with them in time, they will escape!"

"No matter what happens, I must not let them get away!"

After speaking, she gritted her teeth, stood up, and limped towards the direction, determined to pursue them.

After being injured, Guan Zhilin's speed was slower than before.

At this pace, it was clear that she wouldn't be able to catch up to the group of criminals.

However, she didn't give up and continued to chase after them.

Wang Chao, feeling helpless, caught up with her and crouched down, saying, "Let me carry you."

"Okay!"

Guan Zhilin didn't refuse and immediately climbed onto his back, saying, "Sang Biao came from the southeast direction, so they should be fleeing in that direction as well."

Without wasting any words, Wang Chao broke into a sprint.

Although he was carrying someone, it didn't affect his speed at all.

He effortlessly carried her, moving swiftly like lightning, chasing after them relentlessly.

Guan Zhilin lay on Wang Chao's back, feeling as if she were riding in a car, steady as a rock, without the slightest sense of jolting.

It was simply unbelievable!

She tightly held onto Wang Chao's neck, looking at the back of his head with a puzzled and astonished expression. Her mind was filled with questions and curiosity about who Wang Chao really was.

Who exactly was Wang Chao?

When he killed Sang Biao, he was decisive, skilled, and efficient in his actions.

Such a person was definitely not just an ordinary security guard!

Moreover, how did Wang Chao manage to escape unharmed from the landmine explosion just now?

What did he experience while she was away?

Countless questions swirled in Guan Zhilin's mind.

But now was not the time to ask.

Wang Chao's speed was fast as he relentlessly pursued the tracks left by the criminals.

He was exceptionally fast in chasing the enemy and seemed to have a keen sense. He easily bypassed the traps set by the pursuers behind them, not falling into their tricks.

Thirty minutes later, they caught up to the criminals and saw their figures in the distance.

"We finally caught up," Guan Zhilin's eyes lit up.

"Now, what do you want to do?" Wang Chao asked.

"Just follow them from a distance. I'll report our location to headquarters and request backup," Guan Zhilin said.

After speaking, she immediately took out her phone, took photos from a distance, and sent them to headquarters, requesting support.

This woman was truly focused on executing the mission and didn't prioritize her own safety.

Truly courageous!

"Or maybe I should take them out?" Wang Chao suggested.

"Do not joke around. Those criminals have a lot of weapons, and they're well-trained. They're probably skilled foreign mercenaries. Going alone would be suicide," Guan Zhilin quickly grabbed Wang Chao's collar and uttered in a deep voice, "Bravery and suicide are two different things. Don't act impulsively. We'll just closely follow them from behind."

Wang Chao: "..."

You actually know the difference between bravery and suicide?

If it weren't for me, with your reckless pursuit, you would have fallen into their trap and been blown up!

However, he did not say these things out loud and simply followed closely behind the group of criminals.

As they ran, he squinted his eyes, gathering his true power source in his eyes, and stared at the criminals.

Although the distance between the criminals and him was at least three kilometers, he could still clearly see the emblem on their clothes.

It was a pattern embroidered with a skull, fierce and menacing, filled with a sense of killing and ominousness!
