Chapter 427: Chapter 224: Stealth Attack_2

The Echo M16, modified by the Alliance weapons expert ’Dajiao’ from the base M16. After modification, the gun’s range was reduced by 30% and was limited to single-shot firing. In exchange, its accuracy was slightly improved, noise was significantly reduced, and it featured a flash suppression effect. However, being a modified gun, it did not allow any additional attachments such as silencers, compensators, or extra magazines beyond the built-in 2x scope. The silence value is 90, with the gunshots audible within 5 meters.

This Echo M16 can be said to be a highly characteristic assault rifle, Lin Wu felt that the rifle alone was worth today’s pay. Lin Wu reported, "Sniper taken down." During the second corpse looting, Lin Wu only managed to retrieve 10 rounds of 5.56 ammunition.

Nightmare entered the waiting hall, the two leaning against the door to the work area, Nightmare gently turned the doorknob and nodded, signaling the door was unlocked. Lin Wu reached out to turn the knob, Nightmare lowered her helmet’s built-in night vision, and gave a thumbs up. Lin Wu pulled the door open, and Nightmare entered with her gun ready. Then Lin Wu heard gunfire, Nightmare’s rifle was fitted with a suppressor, the sound was not loud, even quieter than the sound of NPCs falling to the ground.

Lin Wu entered the work area and saw two camo-dressed NPCs lying dead on the ground, Lin Wu approached and looted an assault rifle from the bodies. Nightmare also cooperated with Lin Wu, looting another corpse before tossing the assault rifle she found to Lin Wu.

Lin Wu inserted the gun into his backpack and zipped it up, but due to the length of the rifle, a section of the barrel still protruded out of the pack.

Nightmare closed the door, lifted her night vision goggles, and using a flashlight discovered that there was something off about the floor. All other places were cement floors, only here a section was wooden planks.

Lin Wu lifted the wooden plank, Nightmare lowered her gun and looked down, shaking her head. Lin Wu used the flashlight’s beam to peek and saw a straight ladder leading down. Night vision allowed Nightmare to see more clearly, she whispered in Lin Wu’s ear, "About 10 meters." Then pointed at herself and then downward, indicating she would go down first.

Lin Wu nodded, put the wooden plank back, and stepped aside. Nightmare slid down the ladder, and then Lin Wu heard non-stop gunfire, thankfully all from Nightmare’s weapon, likely a one-sided massacre. Lin Wu also slid down the ladder.

This was a 500 square meter underground world with ventilation and electricity. Under the dim lights, you could see the underground space was divided into several unit structures. The first thing in sight was a double bed without doors, and the NPC soldiers on it hardly had any chance to react before being eliminated by Nightmare.

Lin Wu continued looting corpses, while Nightmare walked deeper inside. This time Lin Wu came up empty-handed, the opposite side had nothing. Undeterred, Lin Wu looted another body. Gunshots continued from the front, only from Nightmare’s firearm.

After looting nothing again, Lin Wu readied his gun and jogged to the hall to provide support.

This was a comprehensive hall with a stone bonfire in the middle. Beside the bonfire was a table with some opened cans of beans. One side of the hall was carpeted with bedding and blankets, where eight non-soldier NPCs lay.

Nightmare’s right hand rested on her rifle, the muzzle pointed downward, while with her left hand she held a pistol, finishing off the NPCs. By their clothes, they seemed to be just ordinary people, perhaps civilians sheltered by the Alliance, or even family members of Alliance members. Lin Wu didn’t dwell on this, his gaze moved to the shelves at the side, stacked with boxes of canned goods and biscuits. Lin Wu also found their water source and even their makeshift toilet.

Overall, it seemed that humans really could survive here.

After setting the locator, Nightmare said, "Let’s go, this place will be missile-struck in 5 minutes."

"Five minutes?" Lin Wu looked around, "So much stuff." It would take hours to transport cans, bullets, and ammo packs.

Nightmare, as if not hearing him, traded an assault rifle and a Loot Chest to Lin Wu, "Mission rewards go to you, mission points to me."

This Loot Chest was purple, ranked just below the gold ones, and looked much like other Loot Chests. The distinction was a bracket on the chest with the word "Alliance," indicating that it was a chest obtained from the Alliance.

Lin Wu took the chest, glanced around, and casually pocketed two cans in his pocket, "You know who to look for this kind of job in the future, let’s go." He grabbed a few items as a sign that he’s thoroughly scavenged.

...

Five minutes later, a bunker-busting missile hit the train station, a small mushroom cloud rose, followed by a surge of fire and smoke to the sky, attracting nearby zombies. The region, once sparse with zombies, filled up, as if the Alliance train station shelter never existed.

On duty, Dashuang slapped the army barracks screen, "Everyone up, up!" With no one on night watch in the early hours, Dashuang voluntarily took over the night shift so the field agents could go out with peace of mind during the day.

Stone pulled aside the screen, sleepy-eyed and asked, "What’s happening?" In the middle of the night, if Lin Wu isn’t causing trouble, then it’s you.

Dashuang said, "Lin Wu wants everyone to take their guns to the east parking lot."

Stone listlessly retorted, "Tell him to go die."

Dashuang, "Maya..."

"Damn it." Stone hurriedly put on his shoes shouting, "Get up, grab your guns, let’s move!"

Minutes later, a pickup truck with a horde of zombies arrived at the east parking lot, those already waiting there unleashed a chaotic slaughter on the zombies.

Stone stormed over, ready to let loose on Lin Wu before being appeased by Maya’s explanation, causing the differently-treated Lin Wu to fly into a rage. Killing two birds with one stone, a vengeful heart. Hahaha!
