Chapter 181: Chapter 181 Delaying Time

Mountain Eagle was surprised that these small-time thugs, who could only wield sticks, were unexpectedly defiant.

Even though his ear was bleeding from being twisted, this guy still dared to spit at Sergei...

This was a typical case of a stubborn troublemaker who remembers the rewards but not the beatings, believing firmly that Sergei wouldn’t dare kill them, and they probably had a powerful backing that made them so bold.

But thugs were ultimately just thugs, expecting them to resist like martyrs to the very end was unrealistic.

When an impatient Mountain Eagle grabbed a thug’s hand, placed it on the car door, drove the blade of a dagger upwards through his palm, and stepped on his arm, forcing him to watch his hand tear apart, they spilled everything...

"We are members of the Songgai Brothers Association, someone paid our boss to look for a baby."

Mountain Eagle, looking at Selena who leaned against the engine, showed the bad-luck thug the baby in his arms, and said solemnly, "You’re looking for her? Why?"

The thug felt the pressure on his shoulder and the pain of his palm tearing, and frantically yelled, "It’s her, the one you took from the hotel, we followed you from there."

Mountain Eagle frowned and pressed harder, asking, "Was the hotel explosion caused by you?"

The thug screamed in agony and blurted out loudly, "Not us, our boss has been looking for a man and a woman, it was the boss’s assistant who led people to that hotel, but got blasted and 6 people were injured as soon as they entered the room.

Our boss was furious, so he called everyone to snatch the child back."

"Everyone?"

Mountain Eagle looked at the thugs scattered across the ground and furrowed his brows, saying, "Are you all that everyone?"

With a grimace, the thug said, "Originally we were to wait for others, but our leader thought it’d be easy to handle a woman..."

As he spoke, the thug looked at Mountain Eagle and shouted loudly, "Stop! Our people are about to arrive..."

While the thug was screaming, many car headlights lit up on the street in front of the forensic center...

It was already deep into the night, and so many headlights appearing without any sirens was very unusual.

Determinedly pushing Sergei, Mountain Eagle loudly said, "I’ll stay behind to cover, you take Selena and the child and pull out, head to Four Seasons Hotel, the gang won’t dare to cause trouble so openly there."

Anton had just finished stitching up a wound on Selena’s arm, and said a bit nervously, "What about me?"

After thinking, Mountain Eagle pushed him into the car, handed the child to Selena, and shouted, "Don’t daze, go..."

Saying that, Mountain Eagle rushed to the dead gunmen, grabbed two MP5s and several magazines, then shot dead one of the captive drivers, grabbed the remaining driver, stuffed the weapons into the car while Sergei started the vehicle, then he opened the trunk and shoved the captive inside.

Then Mountain Eagle forcefully hit the engine, pointed towards the side of the forensic center, and shouted loudly at Sergei, "Go, to Four Seasons Hotel..."

Sergei watched Mountain Eagle run towards the front gate and shouted with clenched teeth, "Be careful, police might arrive soon, don’t try to resist too hard!"

Mountain Eagle heard Sergei’s words, but he was not hopeful about the so-called ’police might arrive soon’.

Reaching the entrance of the forensic center, Mountain Eagle set up an AK-105, and when the convoy was about 60 meters away, he pulled the trigger...

"Bang bang bang bang..."

A magazine of 30 bullets went out, and the front windshield of the first vehicle instantly got riddled with over a dozen bullet holes, the glass shattering into a web-like pattern...

Immediately, a lot of blood smeared the car window, the vehicle lost control instantly, twisting and crashing into several parked cars on the roadside, then the side wheels lifted causing a rollover, blocking most of the road.

Mountain Eagle, half crouching at the side of the parking lot gate, pulled out a spare magazine while the vehicles rolled over, adeptly replaced the empty magazine, and pulled the trigger again...

"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang..."

Two bursts of three shots each stopped the second vehicle.

When the leading vehicle had problems, the vehicles behind in the convoy reacted instantly, stopping in place, then several dozen gang gunmen armed with AKs jumped off and started blind firing towards the direction of the forensic center...

Aiming was non-existent, but these members of the Big Russian Gang had a reckless bravery.

Emboldened, making use of their numbers and several members with military experience, they tried to suppress Mountain Eagle while organizing people to flank from a side path, attempting to attack Mountain Eagle from the flanks.

Mountain Eagle’s purpose in staying was not to confront the gang directly; he allowed them into the sensory range of Golden Cicada, it seemed dangerous, but in reality, he and his opponent were in an asymmetrical combat environment.

When pinned down by random gunfire, Mountain Eagle quickly crawled several meters on the ground to reach behind the security guardroom.

Avoiding enemy fire, he moved to the other side of the guardroom, hugged the wall and emptied the remainder of his magazine into a nearby transformer box.

The bullets easily pierced through the casing of the transformer box, quickly causing a small-scale blackout in the surrounding area.

The sudden darkness halted the enemy’s shooting, filling the street with their anxious shouts, yet they made no further moves.

Mountain Eagle stuck to the wall of the guardhouse, moved to the other side, switched to holding the gun with his left hand, crouched on the ground, and slightly poked his gun out around the corner...

The moonlight and the headlights of vehicles provided some visibility, but the gang gunmen were scratching their heads as they couldn’t pinpoint Mountain Eagle’s location.

Mountain Eagle wasn’t aiming to engage in combat. Moreover, with more people and guns on the opposite side, even with his advanced equipment giving him a short-term advantage, the lack of flank protection would land him in a disadvantageous situation.

Delay the time!

After quietly waiting for about three minutes, the Moscow police still hadn’t responded...

Mountain Eagle saw the distant gang gunmen seemed to have received some message, stirred for a while, then the vehicles at the back of the convoy began to turn around.

He sighed, lamented the unreliable Moscow police, and the opponent’s widespread influence, then used the last bit of Gold in the Sergeant System to activate the blueprint of the Multi-barreled Grenade Launcher, which is the active-duty M32 Grenade Launcher of the US Army...

Soon, a black M32 appeared in Mountain Eagle’s hands, he quickly loaded 6, 40mm grenades and then backed up several meters, using a car for cover, and fired 6 grenades sequentially at the rear of the convoy.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A series of muffled explosions...

About two seconds later, explosions occurred on the highway in the distance.

The power of the 40mm grenades was somewhat limited, and Mountain Eagle wasn’t very accurate, but the gun grenades, preset to explode 3 meters above the ground, devastatingly impacted the morale of the gang gunmen...

These men still hadn’t pinpointed Mountain Eagle’s location, but the airburst grenade explosions caused them casualties.

This is no way to fight!

Theoretically, they could suppress with firepower and then turn the situation by flanking...

But the gang is not The Expendables, their combat will was not strong.

Facing rifles, these Big Russian Gang professionals might dare to rush, but facing grenades was too much of a test.

With Mountain Eagle’s second round of grenade attacks, the opponents found Mountain Eagle’s position, but due to the guardhouse’s obstruction, they couldn’t find a good shooting angle.

With a series of loud shouts, those gang gunmen began running into buildings on either side of the street...

Mountain Eagle took advantage of the opponent’s chaos, swiftly sprinting dozens of meters towards the other side of the parking lot gate, then crouched behind a support pillar in the wrought iron fence...

As Mountain Eagle crouched down, a group of gunmen who had earlier flanked from the side arrived...

These gunmen, using their mobile phones as radios, followed their enemy’s directions and stealthily moved to the attack position along the shadows of the building across from the gate...

But just as they were trying to find Mountain Eagle, his ghostly figure stood up from behind them...

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Six gun grenades exploded near those gunmen, covering a large area; the flying shrapnel and explosion-driven wall debris rained down on several gang gunmen like a torrential downpour...

After the muffled explosions, 5 flanking gunmen immediately collapsed on the ground.

Limited by the power of the gun grenades, only one fellow was hit in the head by shrapnel and died; the others wouldn’t die immediately...

Mountain Eagle restrained his killing intent, stowed the Grenade Gun, sprinted dozens of meters while crouching to move out of the gunmen’s line of fire, then circled around the wall of the forensic center to the back...

As he moved, Mountain Eagle folded the stock of the AK-105 and reorganized his tactical backpack.

With the backpack on his back, he vaulted over the 2-meter high wrought iron fence, ran across the road, and entered a small alley.

After running through several twists and turns for nearly 15 minutes, Mountain Eagle appeared on the side of a shopping mall...

Most areas in Moscow were very desolate at night, Mountain Eagle stood by the road and waited for a few minutes but saw no cars.

He was about 45 minutes away by car from the Four Seasons Hotel, at this moment Mountain Eagle couldn’t possibly ask Sergei and others to turn back to pick him up...

After waiting a few more minutes with no success, Mountain Eagle reluctantly took out his phone and called Blood Fox...

"What’s up?"

Mountain Eagle looked at the desolate street, spoke somewhat helplessly, "Do you have any reliable friends in Moscow?

I’m currently near the forensic center, there are no taxis here, I don’t want to walk back on my own."

Blood Fox was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Kid, a man who doesn’t know how to steal a car can’t become a qualified Mercenary.

Wait for me, keep your phone on, I’ll get someone to pick you up...

Haha, you finally show some youthfulness, I need to find Mi Lu and have a drink, tell him this joke..."
