Chapter 53 53:Setting Ambush[II]

Leon knew that people would stay back once they stepped on mine at the front so he planted the bombs at the back.

The jeeps were modified to handle rough but even after this, they were at the limit as a chain of explosions kept blasting the jeep and bombarding it with flames.

"Damn it! The signals aren't working, "A man screamed amidst the detonation.

They tried to connect to the base and call for reinforcement but all they heard was a buzzing sound.

"What should we do? If we stay inside we might get roasted, becoming a feast for the wild animals."Someone screamed in a terrified voice.

"Get out and run, "Mike ordered, seeing the situation getting dangerous. If the engine explodes along with the bomb, none of them might make it alive.

Everyone got out of the jeep covered their faces to protect themselves from black soot and smoke, and tried to flee.

Everywhere their eyes reached, it was all flames.

Panic was evident in everyone's expression. Amidst the sea of flames, it was even hard to know the direction.

"Who set up these traps?"Mike, unable to control his anger, screamed as his voice quivered in anger.

At that time, as if replying to his question.....

BANG!

A member of the mercenary was flung into the air by a large shockwave and landed on the ground. He no longer had any breath, there was a bloody hole in his body making her look ghastly.

Silence washed over everyone.

The forest was stuffy and the cold wind of night howled with echoes of rustling of leaves.

The group could feel goosebumps on their body. It was as if they were being choked by an invisible pair of hands that wanted to suffocate them to death.

The brief silence was finally broken by a scream of panic

"There's a sniper...Hide...Hide..."

"Where the fuck can we? Everything is burning around us?"

"Just shut up and hide."Mike roared.

"Fuck you! You are a Martial Grandmaster and your body is more resistant to heat than ours."Someone refuted Mike in anger.

"Then what do you want me to do? Stand before you as a fucking shield."Mike shouted in anger.

He was as annoying as a cockroach and his body would react, the moment he pulled the trigger.

However, others weren't as lucky as him.

If all of them continued to remain in their current position, they were bound to die either burnt by flames or suffocated by poisonous gasses and soot.

Just because one was a cultivator didn't mean that he didn't need to breathe and had a high tolerance.

'What a fucking bastard!'Mike covering his anger screamed.

'I wonder whose camp this asshole belongs to. Killing us openly without any fear.'

Mike felt that if he stayed here, death was imminent. Running away isn't an option as the sniper has a wide range so the only option..

"Those who are alive give up on escaping. We can't go out of his range. Charge at the sniper and kill him, that's the only way to survive."Mike yelled angrily and picked a few scraps of metal from the jeep lying there to shield himself, and started running in the direction the bullets were coming.

......

"There seems to be a problem."

In the case of Wolfgang mercenary, the sentry guards show a trail of smoke. He bent down and looked through the telescope. It was quite far away from them and all they could glimpse of was wildfire.

He pulled out his walkie-talkie and informed the Vice-Captain.

"What's going on there? I don't think it's a natural fire?"Ron muttered."Is there a war going on there?"

Rose was also confused by this as all the fights that happened between groups were fought as discreetly as possible.

But the fanning flames were like calling everyone to come here.

"Is there a possibility of our group getting caught up in this?"Rose's brows furrowed as a sudden thought arose.

"There are but it's quite less," Ron clicked his tongue."If our group had been caught up in such trouble then we would have received a request for reinforcement.

Rose nodded and narrowed her eyes at the mass of smoke."Still, we can't be too nonchalant. We should find out what's happening. Send scouts to oversee the situation and report back."

A few miles away from Wolfgang's base.....

In the Ironhawk base camp, Tom Hawk who was chief of Ironhawk frowned on seeing the flames"Bring the troops and check the situation. A huge fight may have occurred and even if it's not, we need to be there."

"At least someone needs to take care of the fire before it goes out of control."

A couple of armed jeeps drove out of Ironhawk and the same scene played out in a couple of groups.

It was the beginning of the chaotic mess.
