Han Xiao's Sniping rifle barrel extended out of the car window, and High Combustion Bullet spun out of the barrel, accurately hitting one of the Rose Armed Forces's off-road vehicles. Flames erupted, engulfing the vehicle. However, desert off-road vehicles are specially treated to withstand high temperatures, limiting the lethality of the High Combustion Bullet. Han Xiao assessed the situation and decisively switched to Spindle-Shaped Piercing Bullet, firing small bursts at the bulletproof glass of the Rose Armed Forces vehicle, creating snowflake-like cracks.
"Surround them!" The Ghost Fox Squad immediately turned around, and two vehicles surrounded them.
Where will the ambush be?
Knowing full well the dangers, Han Xiao naturally kept his guard high. Suddenly, he activated his Magnetically Controlled Armor to cover his face, blocking a Sniping bullet that was aimed at his brow. He looked up and saw a new enemy SUV appear to his side, with an unfamiliar enemy holding a Sniping rifle in the back seat. To be able to fire such a precise shot from a speeding vehicle, there was a 30% chance that the person was also a mechanic, a 60% chance that they were Sniping assassin, and the last 10% chance that it was just luck.
That last shot was fired by E San. Seeing that it had no effect, he was slightly surprised and said in a deep voice, "The target has special defensive measures. It's uncertain whether it's a superpower or a machine."
Judging from the ambush, there were probably more than this. Han Xiao patted the back of the seat in front of him and said, "Run quickly, don't slow down, get to the pre-arranged location."
Antonov skillfully shifted gears and stepped on the gas, causing the car to drift and escape in another direction.
Suddenly, another SUV appeared from the direction they had fled, as if it had been waiting for a long time. This time it was E Wu, holding a rocket launcher, who fired a shot at them.
The rocket, trailing a plume of flame, rapidly approached.
Antonov's expression changed slightly. He jerked the steering wheel, and the car swerved ninety degrees to the side. The rocket grazed the rear of the car and landed on the desert.
The explosion was deafening, sending up clouds of yellow sand.
The shockwave hit the back of the car, lifting it up thirty degrees before it crashed down. Han Xiao, sitting in the back seat, was jolted and his buttocks ached.
"Tsk, he dodged it." E Wu was surprised by the driver's Godspeed reaction. Without stopping, he quickly loaded the gun.
Four off-road vehicles occupied three directions, forming an encirclement. Antonov could only run in the last direction, which happened to be the direction where Han Xiao had set up a trap.
"He has nowhere to run." E San narrowed his eyes and said, "E Jiu is waiting for him ahead in the Thorn."
The Thorn is an armored vehicle modified by Su Li. It boasts powerful firepower, abundant horsepower, and heavy armor, combining the offensive and defensive capabilities of a tank with the speed of an off-road vehicle.
Last night, E Jiu monitored Han Xiao's movements. The three assassins used this information to set up an ambush, with E Jiu as the last line of defense. He piloted the Thorn, patrolling the direction Han Xiao had set up the trap, and even confirmed the approximate area of the trap, making it impossible for him to fall for it. He deliberately waited in the direction Han Xiao Han Xiao heading, intending to crush his hopes just as they were beginning to grow!
"He's dead," E San thought to himself.
The chase was filled with sparks and explosions, with bullets and rockets relentlessly bombarding Han Xiao's car. Han Xiao frequently returned fire, barely managing to hold off the four off-road vehicles. The Kestrel Sniping Rifle, combined with the power of its Spindle-Shaped Piercing Bullet, posed a significant threat to the Rose Armed Forces. However, his vehicle was currently fleeing in disarray, and with E San and E Wu also holding him back, his aiming accuracy was greatly reduced.
"Buzz--"
A distinctive engine roar erupted, like the furious roar of a tiger.
Han Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly looked ahead.
A modified armored vehicle blocked the way. Its outer armor was thick and covered with spikes, making it look like a hedgehog. Several cannons extended from both sides of the front of the vehicle. Judging from the caliber, they should be grenade launchers and small missile launchers. There was a rotary four-barreled heavy machine gun on the roof. No, that caliber should be called a heavy machine gun. It was more than enough to be used as an aircraft-borne weapon.
Thorn!
This tank blocked the last direction, forming a tight encirclement with the other four vehicles, leaving them with no way to escape!
"We definitely can't withstand that thing's firepower!" Antonov's expression changed slightly.
Surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind, blocked from all sides, it seemed as if they were trapped in a desperate situation.
"Drive south. Don't worry about that car's firepower; I'll handle it," Han Xiao said in a deep voice.
The enemy to the south is E San, who only has one Sniping rifle and poses the least threat.
Antonov had no choice but to trust Han Xiao, so he quickly turned and crashed into E San.
"Too late."
E Jiu's face was grim. He was about to control the Thorn's machine gun to blow Han Xiao's off-road vehicle into the air when he suddenly saw Han Xiao turn his head and fire a shot in his direction. The bullet hit the glass and suddenly burst into a bright Frenzied Sword Fried Rice.
E Jiu was so shocked by the stabbing that tears welled up in his eyes, and he instinctively closed them.
Light-Shaking Bullet!
"Boom boom boom--" The heavy machine gun of the Thorn spewed out thick fire and smoke, veered off course, and hit Han Xiao's off-road vehicle more than ten meters away.
"Oh no, how could Lao Jiu have missed?!" E San was startled and hurriedly told the driver to stop Han Xiao's car.
Antonov remained unfazed, flooring the accelerator and crashing into the front side of the E San SUV.
Both vehicles jolted, but Antonov's well-chosen angle of impact forced his way through the encirclement.
"Chase!"
At the crucial moment, all their efforts were in vain. E San somewhat annoyed, but after glancing at the situation, he relaxed again.
It's alright, we still have the upper hand. Han Xiao has strayed from the direction of setting up the trap and is running around in a panic. With the power and firepower of the Thorn, we'll catch up with him and destroy his vehicle sooner or later!
Han Xiao looked back through the car window. The Rose Armed Forces convoy was in hot pursuit, only about 200 meters away. Both sides were currently traveling at speeds of over 160 km/h. The Thorn was still firing continuously, kicking up a series of dust clouds as it chased after him. The effects of the Light-Shaking Bullet on E Jiu were not subsiding so quickly. His eyes were sore and swollen, and his vision was blurry, with almost no accuracy.
Looking down at the coordinate radar, Han Xiao Quan calm and said in a deep voice, "Antonov, activate nitro boost in forty-eight seconds!"
"Forty-seven... thirty... six... three, two, one!"
As soon as the time was up, Antonov immediately lifted the small cover next to the gearshift, revealing the nitrous oxide acceleration button, and pressed it hard.
The SUV's exhaust pipe spewed blue flames, its speed instantly soared, and it quickly widened the distance, the force of the thrust pressing the two people inside the car against their seats, rendering them unable to move.
"A futile, death throes." E San didn't care. The nitrogen boost would end sooner or later; it was just a forced extension of his life. Sooner or later, the Thorn would catch up and bombard him with firepower, sending him flying into the sky.
The distance quickly increased to 400 meters, and the effect of the nitrogen acceleration disappeared.
"They've slowed down."
E Wu loaded a new rocket, stood up from the sunroof, and aimed at it from a distance.
Just then, his car braked suddenly, and the sudden kinetic energy caused E Wu to fall onto the back seat.
"What the hell?!"
E Wu roared, but saw the driver sweating profusely as he kept shifting gears, but the car didn't respond at all. His heart sank, and he turned to look out the window. All the Rose Armed Forces SUVs had stopped, including the Thorn, all of them had lost power.
"The car is completely broken down!"
What happened?
The Rose Armed Forces team was terrified. Their vehicle had malfunctioned, and they were like lambs to the slaughter in the vast desert. Han Xiao's SUV stopped in the distance.
Ghost Fox tried to call for reinforcements from the base, but found the communicator was malfunctioning. He exclaimed, "This is the effect of EMP!"
"Impossible! This is not the direction he set the trap in at all!" E Jiu exclaimed in horror.
The thought of Dorothy's death sent a chill down the Ghost Fox spirit's spine.
"Run!"
The next moment, a high-incendiary Sniping round was fired from a distance, its target being a patch of sand at E San's feet. The landmines buried underground detonated with a bang. This time, there were not only Poison Explosion Incendiary Mine, but also proper explosive mines taken from the Farrian warehouse.
The deafening explosions continued, and dazzling flames shot into the sky, leaving orange-red and incandescent colors on Han Xiao's retina. The area within a hundred-meter radius where the Rose Armed Forces were located was completely filled with flames and explosions, and no one could be seen.
Han Xiao, carrying a Sniping rifle, chuckled, "Surprised? Unexpected?"
