Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger
Chapter 185 Annihilation

Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Annihilation

The fragments of the hand grenade caused some damage to the vehicle and its occupants, but it was not lethal.

All the assassins inside the vehicle were skilled, and they reacted immediately when they were attacked...

There is no such thing as an immediate counterattack after being ambushed, as experienced fighters always prioritize their own safety. Thus, they stopped the car, got out, went on alert, carried out rescues, and simultaneously prepared to use peel-off tactics to evacuate the scene.

However, they could never have imagined that they were being attacked by just one person, and in the visual blind spots created by the smoke bomb, this person was as elusive as a demon in the smoke...

"Bang Bang"

Mountain Eagle, advancing with a gun, pulled the trigger, blowing the head off an assassin who was using the vehicle engine for cover.

Then, before his opponents could counterattack, he sidestepped about seven or eight meters to the left, and then threw another smoke bomb towards the other side of the vehicles using a high-arching throw.

With the sound of the smoke bomb hitting the ground, the enemy gunmen began to fire violently in that direction.

By this time, Mountain Eagle had already moved to another direction along the smoke-covered area and then pulled the pins of two hand grenades, letting them stay in his hand for two seconds before throwing them again towards the position of three vehicles...

As the hand grenade flew through the air, Mountain Eagle quickly stepped up a few stairs and used the doorway of a shop as cover, preventing shrapnel from the defensive grenades from injuring him while squatting on the ground and pulling the trigger at two individuals trying to abandon their comrades and flee...

"Boom Boom"

"Bang Bang, Bang Bang"

The explosion of the grenades caused the three gunmen to let out panicked roars, then they screamed and fell to the ground.

The two fleeing individuals were hit by bullets, which bypassed the protective areas of their bullet-proof vests and entered their bodies through the ribs...

A single bullet strike, if lucky, might still be saved, but the internal damage and cavities caused by two simultaneous hits are beyond even the help of immortals.

The two guys fell down like chopped trees, their legs weakened, their bodies lurched forward, and they fell to the ground beginning their final countdown of life.

The explosion of the grenades and the gunfire almost simultaneously erupted, such that the gunman who stayed put did not even spot Mountain Eagle’s position.

The grenade explosion both caused them to panic and seek cover on the ground and made Mountain Eagle lose the optimal shooting angle.

However, by this time Mountain Eagle, having completed the critical strike, had full control of the situation, and the asymmetric battlefield created by the smoke bomb left the opponent powerless.

He stood up, took out a shock bomb and rolled it along the ground towards the bottom of a car, and then, before the enemy’s desperate counterattack arrived, circled around to the other side...

"Boom"

The explosion of the shock bomb and the burst of light happened in an instant, and Mountain Eagle, who had already rushed to within 5 meters of the enemy vehicles, suddenly sped up and moved past the sedan engine, pulling the trigger at several assassins hiding behind the cars...

"Bang Bang Bang Bang..."

The high rate of fire of the AK-105 and the 30-round magazine provided Mountain Eagle with powerful firepower, and the four somewhat dizzy gunmen, along with two earlier grenaded wounded, lay helplessly on the ground.

After succeeding, Mountain Eagle swiftly finished off these assassins and then, as the sound of police sirens echoed in the distance down the street, he threw several more smoke bombs around and then tucked away his weapon, using the cover of the smoke to leave the scene.

While walking briskly, Mountain Eagle took off his tactical glasses, put on a pair of black-framed glasses, discarded the black hat, and put on a glaring red hat, then put on a lightweight jacket...

He walked a few hundred meters down a narrow alley, moving with light steps, and arrived at the back alley of the restaurant where Blood Fox and the others were...

Mountain Eagle looked left and right, making sure no one was around, and then he took out his phone and called Blood Fox...

Soon the back door of the restaurant opened, Blood Fox looked at Mountain Eagle in surprise, let him in, and then pulled him up a hidden staircase to the second floor of the restaurant, through a storage room, and into a small room.

As Mountain Eagle entered, he smelled the strong scent of alcohol...

Looking at Mi Lu, who had a reddened nose from drinking, and Snowden, who was holding his head sitting on the bed, Mountain Eagle hugged Blood Fox and Mi Lu separately and said with a smile, "I’ve always had a question, how did you two end up with such incredible wives and then let them become ex-wives?"

Mi Lu, looking depressed, sat on the chair and said, "Have you met Victoria?

To be precise, that crazy woman is my ex-ex-wife!

Here’s a piece of advice for you, a man shouldn’t marry an extremely capable woman, otherwise, she will always want to control your every move..."

Saying this, Mi Lu rubbed his reddened nose in frustration and continued, "Of course, don’t marry a woman who is easily obese and has a fiery temper either.

I’ve experienced both, and each time I felt like life was meaningless!"

Mountain Eagle, looking sympathetically at the unhappy Mi Lu, said with a smile, "You, old guy, are blind when it comes to marriage, so your advice isn’t very reliable.

Seeing you unhappy actually makes me feel a lot better."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle looked at Mi Lu, who had grown a Mediterranean-style belly and was somewhat amused, "How did you manage to woo such a beauty?

Victoria is still very attractive in her fifties, now look at you..."

Has the curse of Russia’s prosperity been reversed for you two?"

Mi Lu took a deep breath, picked up the vodka beside him, and said, "Once I was a handsome young man with thick hair...

When you’re good-looking and serving in the world’s best special forces, you’ll find it’s really easy to get women."

Blood Fox, listening to this, laughed heartily and said, "Don’t listen to him. This guy made a lot of jokes chasing Victoria, and in the end, Victoria married him out of pity.

Unfortunately, he still got dumped!"

Mi Lu, dissatisfied, said, "I did it for you reckless fools. Without me, Arctic Fox would have been dispersed long ago.

Besides, I’m the best sniper, how can I rely on a woman for a living?"

Mountain Eagle, shaking his head with a smile, said, "Alright, Mr. Best Sniper, how does it feel to drink early in the morning?"

Then Mountain Eagle glanced at Snowden sitting on the bed, who seemed to wish he was invisible, and said seriously, "I just took out a 12-man combat group; they were all using NATO standard weapons.

People from the Belgar Lake Foundation have exposed your location..."

As soon as Mountain Eagle finished speaking, Snowden looked at him with a horrified expression...

"This can’t be happening. They promised me..."

Mountain Eagle pulled up a chair and sat in front of Snowden, and said calmly, "Sir, what did they promise you?

Did they give you a contact number or something? You can try calling to complain."

Distraught, Snowden covered his face with his hands, painfully saying, "They took the ’X Key Scoring Plan’ including the Ukraine surveillance list, and some recordings of Ukrainian politicians’ communication with Russia.

They said as long as I gave them these things, they would ensure that my family won’t be harassed."

Mountain Eagle, curious, asked, "Didn’t they promise to ensure your safety?"

Snowden paused for a moment, shook his head dejectedly and said, "No, when he told me that my family was already under full surveillance, I couldn’t think anymore."

Then, Snowden, looking at Blood Fox with a dejected expression, said, "Am I doomed?"

Mountain Eagle raised his hand to stop Blood Fox from speaking and looked into Snowden’s eyes, seriously saying, "If you want to give up now, then you are indeed doomed!"

Pointing at Blood Fox, Mountain Eagle then said to Snowden, "These two old men once helped Assange secure political asylum in Ecuador; now they are striving to secure Russian political asylum for you.

But that’s not enough because once you decide to surrender, whether you turn to Russia or confess to the United States, you’re doomed!"

Hearing this, Snowden, feeling depressed, said, "Then what can I do?"

Mountain Eagle looked at the idealistic, slim man in front of him, and said, "What do you think is the most valuable thing on you?

In other words, what is it on you that has made the capital groups in the United States go to great lengths to eliminate you?"

Snowden paused, then said, "Secret intelligence?"

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "Intelligence is time-sensitive. Some so-called secret intelligence, after it expires, isn’t even worth tabloid news.

You’ve already leaked thousands of secret documents to English journalists, and he reported them, but the impact of other so-called secret intelligence, beyond the Prism program, has been suppressed through lobbying efforts.

What’s really valuable is that you hold the overall architecture of the United States digital intelligence system. Any organization understanding this architecture, as long as their technical capabilities are in place, can counter this system.

For this toy, the United States spent decades and hundreds of billions of dollars.

It’s like someone invented a lethal poison, but you ran away with the formula for the antidote.

As long as you’re alive, there’s a risk this entire architecture could be exposed, and, most importantly, the companies involved in the ’poison’ research are also at risk of exposure."

Snowden hesitated, then shook his head and said, "If it’s just about preventing leaks, they can adjust the organizational structure of the surveillance system at any time.

The whole surveillance system relies on American technological strength. I only know part of it, but not much about the core system programs, algorithms, weights, which are handled by various contractors."

Mountain Eagle, shaking his head, said, "You’re mistaken...

If you had worked in a large company, you would understand that adjusting the organizational structure is a disaster for a well-run business.

Completely exposing their organizational structure would force the US digital intelligence system to undergo massive adjustments.

Blood Fox, coming from an intelligence organization, ask him what such adjustments would cause?

Under the current US political system, these changes would completely disrupt the operation of the US digital intelligence system, possibly taking half a year, or even years."

Listening, Snowden, in despair, said, "But I’ve already handed this part of the information to an English journalist..."
