Steel steam and flame

There are still ten seconds left before the flare ends.

This area is not very big, and it doesn't take much time for the firearm to completely cover and shoot. At least the flaming flares won't go out until the enemy has cleared them. Cassia hid in the shade of the ancient tree without making any movement, and heavy shadows covered it, hiding him perfectly.

He was worried that the captain was hiding on the edge of this area and the enemy would not save those bullets. As time goes by, the Captain's situation becomes very dangerous. There are too many enemies, and the intertwined fire network has no loopholes. No matter how agile and flexible the body is, except for being able to withstand most bullets, it seems to have no real effect.

Around herself, Cassia also felt other things, which were eyes that were constantly glancing back and forth. It was the sniper just now, probably. The light from the flare seemed to allow the sniper to see the general situation here.

Cassia could only hope in her heart that the lights of the flares would go out quickly, or that there would be a strong wind now. The large amounts of snow and fog blown up can also have the effect of smoke, which can help the captain to some extent.

Time passed extremely slowly, and Cassia was thinking, if something happens to the captain later, what should he do? Attack the enemy from the tree, assist the captain in escaping, and then desperately escape behind him? But no matter how he calculated and imagined, at this moment, Cassia did not find a favorable condition for herself. In other words, if he really popped his head out of the shade of the tree, what awaited him would not be a smooth escape.

"There must be a pile of bullets waiting for you. Before you can react, you will be broken into pieces in an instant, leaving nothing behind." Cassia thought, feeling bitter in her heart. At the last moment, the captain would most likely jump out of the snow, desperately looking for a chance to escape. But he can only maintain this state and wait for the enemy to leave on his own.

The reverberation of bullet firing is coming to an end, and the bullets in a magazine will soon be exhausted. When the enemy changes their magazines, it is most likely the time for the captain to attack. Just as Cassia was thinking this, the mixed gunfire suddenly became silent for the most part, leaving only a few machine guns with bullet chains that continued to fire.

Another hand crossbow fired several more rounds of illumination bombs, and the surrounding light environment may no longer be extinguished.

The peaceful atmosphere below was broken at this moment. With her eyes closed, Cassia once again felt several strong lights flashing in front of her eyes. It must have been the captain throwing a flash bomb, but it had no effect on the enemy. Then there were words that had no meaning at all, and a lot of noisy voices were mixed together. They are all the language of the Far Sea Commonwealth, with slightly weird pronunciation.

Maybe he was shouting something like "I found it, I found it, shoot quickly". Cassia thought that her body was like a huge hard rock at this moment, integrated into the trees, and she had no intention of moving to help. He himself was afraid, just as the captain himself said, this was a gentle slope with no obvious terrain differences to take advantage of. Except for the ancient trees, there was no place to avoid bullets.

The tree trunks also appear weak in front of bullets. Cassia heard the sound of a heavy machine gun from the gunshots. It was a detachable firearm specially used to deal with bunkers such as rocks. No tree trunk could stop him.

The next moment, before the time to change the magazine was over, the sounds of various firearms suddenly sounded. The enemy also guessed that Cassia and the others might be hiding in the snow, and only a few people were conducting raids and raids. The others had their loaded guns ready, waiting for them to jump out of the snow.

There seemed to be a mess below, and the vibrations caused by the explosion could be clearly felt on the tree trunks. Someone is letting go of his voice to conduct the command, and the strange syllables are completely integrated with the clear sound of gunfire and the sound of the steel-cased bomb that explodes next.

The whole commotion was very short, lasting less than ten seconds, and then all the movement subsided. The only information Cassia collected was a violent gunshot, and nothing else was known.

Whether the captain escaped or not, he didn't know yet. The information we know is completely insufficient. But judging from the leisurely reaction of the enemy below, the results of the two captains were probably the same.

Controlling her heartbeat more carefully, Cassia completely entered a state of suspended animation, leaving only her ears to receive external signals.

"Wow wow wow wow wow..." The inspection and shooting continued. After about ten seconds, all the gunfire stopped. Someone among the enemies was talking, as if they had discovered something. It should be the hole that hasn't been buried yet. Cassia heard the sound of footsteps on the branches. The branches that built the grid were removed, and the enemy saw the shells piled up below. Fluorescent tubes can last a while.

"They should be leaving." Cassia thought, feeling relieved for some reason. At this time, the enemy stopped replenishing the flares, and the surrounding area immediately became dark.

The woods in Frey's eyes were black, without any mixed colors. He climbed on a tree. Behind him was a huge snow peak towering into the black clouds. In front of him was a gentle slope covered with ancient trees. There was a faint glow of light just now, but now it has completely disappeared.

He held the telescope in his hand, and even though he couldn't see anything inside, he still looked carefully at the place where the white light just appeared.

In less than two or three breaths, a faint light like starlight appeared in the darkness of the telescope, flickering in a certain pattern.

"The enemies... are all dead, the two captains, and many ordinary soldiers have escaped." Frey looked at the flashes, and based on the frequency of the flashes, he told the dozen or so people around him word by word. Personal interpretation of what it represents.

"We're going to chase those people right away. We're done." Frey put down his observation glasses at this time and looked at the dim light under the big tree. There were more than a dozen people standing there, discussing something.

"Is there any message you need to convey to them?"

"I didn't." A man replied with a flat voice.

"Similarly, it's too boring to only be interested in high-quality prey and rely on quantity to fill the score gaps." It was a female voice with a slightly sharp voice. "What do you think, Shanerna?" She looked at the big tree next to her. Said above.

Shanerna didn't reply. She now focused all her attention on the sniper scope, which was also black. But no one knew what Shan Erna, who was so serious, saw in it.

"Frey, send a signal to the communications soldier and ask him to be careful around him. There seems to be a person hiding there."
