Chapter 240: Chapter 239: Don’t Go Against God

Hostages safely evacuated, Mountain Eagle, on the contrary, abandoned the idea of retreat...

The prior barrage of attacks, most importantly, Alex’s self-detonation had inflicted massive casualties on the enemy.

Instead of braving the enemy’s retaliation to rush into the wooden house to search for another speedboat key and then risking a staggered withdrawal, it was better to turn around and strike a blow to thoroughly cripple the enemy.

The central section of the main building was ablaze, smoke filling the interior space, leaving the enemy unable to take cover inside.

The east side’s wooden house, weakened by Alex’s explosion, was now on the brink of collapse and uninhabitable.

With Butcher’s two machine guns and a sniper rifle covering the front, the unprotected grassland shifted from the attacker’s moat to the defender’s nightmare.

They could only use the angle of the exterior building walls for cover, mounting a rather futile counterattack, as they couldn’t even locate Butcher and his team’s precise positions.

Now only the enemies inside the west side house still had the ability to resist; all others were under Mountain Eagle’s surveillance.

Over twenty enemies, and a small portion of them were injured...

Mountain Eagle felt that fleeing in this situation would be a disrespect to his own abilities!

"Butcher, block their escape routes..."

After issuing the command, Mountain Eagle watched Yuliy, who had already landed ashore and distanced herself tens of meters to the right, using the slope of the waterfront as cover to form a crossfire with the Pirate...

"Yuliy, cover the east, Pirate, I’m coming up..."

As Mountain Eagle spoke, both Pirate and Yuliy opened fire simultaneously...

Mountain Eagle swiftly stood from cover, sprinted forward for over twenty meters, and at the moment his body was exposed to the enemy’s field of fire, he forcefully leapt to the left, sliding three to four meters through the air...

The moment he landed, Mountain Eagle propped himself up with his left hand, the flexible exoskeleton absorbing the impact to protect his wrist, his body rolled to the left driven by inertia, then he flipped to his feet and dashed two steps forward, positioning himself behind Pirate...

Yuliy, on the left, seeing Mountain Eagle had really come up, exclaimed in surprise, "Boss, what are you doing?"

Mountain Eagle dumped a pile of AK-105 magazines on the ground, signaling to Pirate they were available whenever he needed, then slung his own AK-105 behind his back, placing the VSS on his thigh...

Next, he scooped up a 6-barrel grenade launcher from the ground, and like magic pulled an 18-round grenade belt from his backpack...

Looking at Pirate’s surprised face, Mountain Eagle said with a smile, "Don’t look at me that way, it’s always better to be prepared, I knew they would come in handy..."

Pirate didn’t understand how having a backpack with 18 grenades was being prepared, but Mountain Eagle was the boss, and the boss is always right...

He tossed aside the RPK light machine gun, whose barrel had turned red from firing, took up his AK-105, fired several shots toward the west side, and shouted loudly, "Boss, there are at least 7 people inside the west side wooden house, I can’t see them..."

Mountain Eagle loaded the grenade gun, after inserting 6 grenades into it, grinned and said, "Cover me..."

With his eyes fixed on the west side wooden house, Pirate immediately pressed the trigger, spraying a string of bullets at the back door and windows of the house...

Simultaneously, Yuliy also began shooting to suppress the enemies near the main building’s east side exterior wall...

Mountain Eagle, utilizing the distraction from Pirate’s gunfire, circled to the other side of the wooden house and lifted the grenade launcher, firing repeatedly...

At a distance of less than 50 meters, except for one grenade that exploded against the wooden house exterior, the other five penetrated the windows into the interior...

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Following a series of muffled blasts, the wooden house interior was like a boiling kettle, billowing dark smoke from the windows and back door.

Having succeeded, Mountain Eagle quickly swung around, dropping the heated grenade gun and reloaded another 6 grenades...

"Covering fire..."

Pirate and Yuliy opened fire again to cover, allowing Mountain Eagle to easily repeat his previous action...

"Boom, boom, boom..."

This time only four grenades made it inside the west side wooden house, but the consecutive rounds of concentrated explosions utterly shattered the opponent’s will to resist.

The west side wooden house occupants ran out of the main door like mad, only to be met with Butcher and his team’s gun muzzles...

The estate buildings were roughly 200 meters from the Coniferous Forest...

As west side enemies peeked out, Pigeon’s sniper rifle echoed...

One unfortunate soul caked in soot was hit in the neck, the bullet slicing open a large swath of flesh like a scraper, causing him to spin into two of his own, obstructing their chances of finding cover...

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

A string of 7.62mm machine gun bullets struck the trio, with pencil-sized entry holes, but the exit wounds were the size of a bowl.

The corridor north of the west side wooden house instantly turned into a bloody hell!

The sight of the three was so gruesome that two other survivors lay on the ground in terror, rolling and crawling towards the main building...

Just as they leaned against the main building’s exterior wall, feeling they might be temporarily safe, a bullet pierced the head of one on the inside, carrying bone fragments and brain tissue, and hit the cheekbone of another...

The one hit in the cheekbone’s head was like being struck by a hammer, a depression the size of an egg appeared, and the intense pressure caused an eyeball to be squeezed out of its socket...

Matchless with a single shot, Mountain Eagle crawled a few meters to the left with the VSS, returning to the back of the dockside wooden house...

"Pirate, check the house on the west side..."

Mountain Eagle took advantage of the moment Pirate rushed out to push the Grenade Gun open again and loaded the last 6 Hand Grenades into it.

There were no more moving enemies on the West Side. Sending Pirate to check was just a precaution, to prevent any lucky survivors inside.

Now, the remaining enemies had all gathered outside the east wall of the main building, as well as inside the still-intact structures in the northern part of the wooden house on the east side.

These people had been stunned, huddling in what they thought was a safe place, with no idea that Mountain Eagle was determined to devour them whole...

Mountain Eagle held no grudges against them and was not the kind who indulged in killing, but though he did not voice it, he felt moved by the actions of the old man, Alex.

Not everyone has the courage to strap Hand Grenades to themselves and charge at the enemy...

The seemingly crazed terrorist suicide bombers seen in the news mostly require the stimulation of drugs and medication before they can muster enough courage.

For a normal person to willingly face death takes a certain belief!

The old man was indeed on the brink of death, but he shone his last bit of light in saving his old master’s granddaughter.

In that moment, the old man was radiant!

Mountain Eagle felt it was necessary to let these kidnappers who spared not even children accompany the old man in death.

Now all obstacles had vanished...

The moment Pirate appeared, Mountain Eagle adjusted his AK-105 to his chest and slung the VSS on his back, carrying the Grenade Gun and crossed the grass. Using the spreading fire from the main building as cover, he avoided the East Side enemies’ sightlines and steadily closed in on them...

There was a clearing over twenty meters wide between the east wall of the main building and the wooden houses on the east side. There were over a dozen vehicles parked there, with a lot of agricultural machinery as well.

Thus, the remaining enemies were able to use these as cover to return fire and suppress the Butchers, while also controlling the area from the left side of the dock to the waterfront wooden houses...

Mountain Eagle, with Crow’s assistance, easily avoided their field of fire and, under Yuliy’s astonished gaze, sneaked to the corner of the main building with Pirate in tow...

At that moment, he was only about 5 meters away from the nearest enemy...

Mountain Eagle pulled out two Hand Grenades, removed the safety pins, let them linger for three seconds in his hand, and then threw them out.

"Boom, boom"

Two Defensive Hand Grenades exploded about 1 meter above the ground. The four gunners using hay bales for cover had no time to react before darkness overtook them...

Thick smoke obscured a large area, and as the gunners in front attempted to turn around and return fire, Mountain Eagle stretched out both hands wielding the Grenade Gun...

"Thump thump thump..."

Hand Grenades exploded among the vehicles...

Several screaming, injured gunmen later, Mountain Eagle clenched his communicator and said solemnly, "We move in..."

Saying this, he was the first to round the corner, raising his AK-105 and opening fire...

Pirate followed closely behind...

Next, Yuliy, who had been lying near the waterfront, also stood up...

Blinded and confused by the explosions, the enemy couldn’t mount an effective counterattack; they couldn’t see anything through the darkness and smoke...

Meanwhile, a van breached the manor’s gates, its rooftop machine gun roaring, suppressing the enemy in the eastern wooden house...

At this point, the fight had lost any suspense!

The panicked gunners lost all will to resist. All they wanted was to escape, but every escape route had been sealed off.

Two gunmen tried to jump out of the east side windows and run into the reed beds, only to be spotted by the circling van. The rooftop machine gun needed only two short bursts to lay them flat on the ground.

As Mountain Eagle advanced to about ten meters from the northern section of the wooden house, those inside tied a white flag to the barrel of a gun, frantically waving it outside...

"Don’t shoot, we surrender..."

Mountain Eagle didn’t mind killing, but unless necessary, he normally didn’t execute surrenders...

But still there were a few guys left alive, as if they had unfinished business...

Pirate clearly felt his boss’s hesitation and decisively stepped forward, pulling out a Hand Grenade ready to throw it inside the house. But before he could act, the old wooden house emitted a harrowing creak...

The decrepit wooden house, 6 meters wide and nearly 30 meters long, began to collapse from the south side where it was blown up.

The roof’s old beams broke, the rotten wood collapsed en masse and even brought down a blackened wooden wall, instantly crushing the surviving gunmen beneath the rubble.

The spectacle stunned everyone...

Having witnessed Alex’s last charge, Mountain Eagle, Pirate, and Yuliy involuntarily turned their gaze towards the ruins on the southern side of the wooden house...

Pirate, long accustomed to the ways of the battlefield, superstitiously made the sign of the cross over his chest, muttering a prayer under his breath, then secured the safety pin on his Hand Grenade and moved to Mountain Eagle’s side...

"Boss, do we need to check the rubble?"

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "If they can survive this, then it means God doesn’t want them dead...

I won’t go against God!"
