Courting Death!
However, Chen Mo was not in a hurry. Today's battle was just a warm-up. The purpose was to awaken these two beasts, which had been locked up in New York for a period of time, so that they could be in the best condition for the more intense battles to come.
Soon, the figures of the armed men chasing behind them became faintly visible in the woods.
Before they even saw Chen Mo and his two companions, the sharp-eyed Victor and James had already spotted them. Their eyes immediately flashed with a chilling light, and without waiting for the enemy to get close, they charged towards them.
The armed men from the American Fur Company, who came to hunt down Chen Mo and his two companions, followed the trail left by the three.
Ever since the American Fur Company monopolized the Missouri region, it has been ruthlessly ruthlessly killing off foreign fur traders. Very few have managed to leave alive, so for a long time, no foreign fur traders have dared to enter the territory controlled by the American Fur Company. I never expected that someone would have the audacity to come and do business in the territory of the American Fur Company. Aren't they afraid of death? Then let them die a miserable death and suffer more pain!
However, just as they were imagining how they would deal with Chen Mo and the other two after catching up, a series of light and swift footsteps suddenly sounded from ahead. The people at the front of the group quickly looked up and saw two boys, about ten years old, rushing towards them with fierce expressions.
"Enemy attack!"
The team members who spotted the two first immediately shouted a warning.
They weren't like the robbers Chen Mo and his friends had encountered before, who specialized in bullying ordinary people; they wouldn't easily underestimate two teenagers rushing towards them.
The Native American boys in the forest were also able to use bows and arrows and spears, hiding in the woods to deliver fatal attacks.
So when they heard their comrade's warning, the ten armed men quickly stopped, gripped the Musket on their backs, and when they saw Victor and James charging towards them, they all raised their Musket and pointed them at the two men.
"Stop! Get down on the ground immediately, or we'll shoot!"
Ten Musket were all aimed at Victor and James, who were charging towards them. Confident that they had the situation under control, the middle-aged man in charge did not rush to order the guns to be fired, but instead shouted a warning to the two men.
In this vast and primeval jungle, killing one or two people is nothing. As the rulers of this region, they have killed quite a few people over the years, so naturally they have no objections or concerns.
However, it was rather strange that two white boys, around ten years old, were charging at their fully armed team unarmed. Since they had already aimed their guns at the two boys and gained control of the situation, the team leader decided to capture them alive and interrogate them.
However, Victor and James ignored the middle-aged team leader's warning and continued to rush forward without slowing down, quickly reaching a short distance in front of the group.
"Court death!"
Seeing that the two ignored his warning, the middle-aged burly man leading the team angrily shouted and prepared to order the shooting!
Just a few dozen meters away from them, Chen Mo shook his head helplessly upon seeing the situation, and slowly raised his hands. Two black pistols instantly appeared in his hands.
The next moment, a series of crisp gunshots rang out in the woods, then quickly ended, leaving only lingering echoes. The American Fur Company's armed men, who had just been holding Musket and aiming at Wickert and James, were all knocked from their hands and stood there blankly.
Clearly, what happened just now was too sudden and bizarre, leaving them momentarily speechless.
However, Victor and James were completely unaffected, roaring as they quickly crossed the last section in the middle and plunged into the crowd.
After a series of battles on their journey to New York, the two had gained some combat experience. Apart from not understanding tactics and not knowing how to use stealth, ambush, or assassination to improve combat efficiency, they were now able to handle direct combat with ease.
Of course, before charging into the crowd for close combat, Chen Mo still needed to be there to hold the line and help them eliminate the enemies who were armed with Musket and posed a significant threat to them.
However, this is not a long-term solution. Chen Mo has decided to improve the two of them's strength as soon as possible so that they can face armed enemies independently without his assistance. After all, Chen Mo cannot stay by their side as a babysitter forever. Before their self-healing ability can be improved to the point where they can ignore bullet attacks, they must learn how to deal with armed enemies.
Since this battle was just an appetizer, Chen Mo was too lazy to use Gun Fu to control the entire scene. He waited until the enemy posed a threat to the two children before taking action. Instead, he fired ten shots in a row, knocking the weapons of all ten armed men away.
Victor and James pounced into the crowd with lightning speed. Before anyone could react, they were already attacking with both hands. Victor's claws tore deep, bone-revealing wounds into the enemy's bodies, while James's bone spikes pierced through them with a single thrust. By the time those who had suddenly lost their weapons finally realized what was happening, two of their companions had already lost their fighting ability.
After the two men charged into the crowd, the effectiveness of the Musket was greatly reduced, and the remaining men quickly drew their daggers, machetes, and other weapons and attacked the two men.
Although Victor and James had improved their agility and nimbleness through previous battles, they still inevitably suffered injuries from the attack by eight armed men who had long been navigating the perilous forest. However, the pain did not affect their fighting ability; instead, it made their wildness erupt even more intensely. Ignoring their injuries, they launched even more ferocious and crazy attacks on the enemies around them with bloodshot eyes.
The remaining eight team members were quickly wounded by the two attackers, but they continued to fight bravely without any intention of retreating.
However, they did not have the powerful self-healing ability of the two children. Their wounds increased, their condition deteriorated, and their attack power gradually decreased over time.
In contrast, Victor and James Vietnam War, as if the growing number of wounds on their bodies were merely injections of stimulants that, apart from making them more frenzied, had no effect on their fighting ability.
Chen Mo carefully observed the two's fight, summarizing their respective fighting styles and the best attack methods for their claws.
