Chapter 501: Chapter 503 Zhou Yang in Trouble!

"We have no clear idea what the situation is. Zhou Yang and his team took the sea route; the ship just reached the public sea and suddenly lost contact—now we can’t get through to anyone!"

Xiaozhuang said with a tone of shock, analyzing, "I used the trackers on our people to find out that they are now on a small island in the Western Pacific, still some distance from Thailand!"

"On a small island?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian immediately furrowed his brow.

What exactly was going on? How could such a large team suddenly be out of contact?

At this moment, Qin Tian’s heart was filled with all sorts of worries.

The team sent out this time included Zhou Yang and Wild Boar’s special combat subteam—if something were to happen, War Dragon would have effectively lost half of its people!

"Wait for me at the base, I will be there immediately."

Without any hesitation, Qin Tian headed towards Wolong Mountain at the fastest speed possible.

On the way there, he was also analyzing this particular emergency situation.

Given Zhou Yang’s intelligence and the combat power of the special combat subteam, even if they ran into trouble, it wouldn’t make sense for them to disappear without sending out any signal, right?

What kind of conspiracy was involved, what had happened, Qin Tian could not guess at all.

Upon arriving at the Wolong Mountain Base, Qin Tian, Xiaozhuang, Lin Yu, and Jiang Hu all had grim expressions. Everyone sat in the conference room, silent.

After a while, Jiang Hu spoke, "I feel this isn’t an accident but a premeditated plot by the enemy. Otherwise, with the Instructor’s strength, it’s not likely that we would lose contact without receiving any message. When they set out, we had agreed on various emergency plans, which included methods for contacting us in urgent situations. But now, we haven’t received any news at all..."

Qin Tian, with a stern face, asked, "When did we start losing contact with Old Zhou and his team?"

Xiaozhuang replied, "Two hours ago. I had an agreement with them to send a safety signal every two hours. I was in contact with Zhou Yang along the way, but it was two hours ago that we lost contact; Zhou Yang did not reach out to me, and after waiting half an hour, I tried to contact him proactively, only to find that none of them were reachable..."

"Then I tracked their movements using the tracking system. Zhou Yang and his team had deviated from the set course path and ended up on an unknown island. This is definitely not a coincidence. It’s very likely Zhou Yang and his team have fallen into danger."

With Xiaozhuang’s bold speculation, the faces of the four individuals in the conference room turned ashen.

"Two hours ago, plus the two hours you had agreed, does that mean we have been out of contact with them for four hours now?" Qin Tian asked.

Xiaozhuang nodded, "Yes. When I located them more than an hour ago, they were moving towards that island. Now, none of them are moving anymore."

"..."

The moment he said this, the room fell silent.

They’re not moving anymore... could it be... they’re dead?!

As Xiaozhuang spoke, he displayed his laptop screen up on the large electronic screen of the conference room. Everyone saw that on a small island in the Western Pacific, there were several blinking lights clustered together—these were the sensors on Zhou Yang and his team.

"Oh no, the signals are disappearing!"

Just as everyone was tracking the blinking sensors, they realized that those blinking lights were vanishing one by one...

Seeing this, everyone was startled!

However, in the end, not all the blinking lights disappeared... There was still one signal left.

Upon seeing this, Qin Tian heaved a sigh of relief and said with tightly knotted brows, "If this was a planned ambush by enemies, then who are they, and why would they want to attack us?"

As soon as Qin Tian posed this question, it indeed stumped everyone.

This was War Dragon’s first mission, and logically, they shouldn’t have any enemies yet, so who would specifically target War Dragon’s people?

Lin Yu put forth a potential opponent that everyone thought likely, "If we can’t think of an opponent, then I have reason to suspect it’s the work of the Hunter team. They’re the only ones with the motive to target us and disrupt our mission."

However, Lin Yu added with a twist in his tone, "But, I don’t understand. With the strength of the Hunter team, facing Zhou Yang as well as Wild Boar’s Special Combat Team, they should be able to put up a fight. How come we haven’t heard anything on our end, and Zhou Yang’s team has lost contact?"

Qin Tian nodded. In fact, when he had sent Zhou Yang with Wild Boar and the Special Combat Team to carry out this mission, he had already considered the possibility of retaliation from the Hunter team.

Zhou Yang had collected information about the Hunter team, and with his combined intelligence and bravery, theoretically, he should be able to cope easily, so why did such a situation arise? Could it be that the enemy was not the Hunter team? Then who could it be?

The four people in the conference room were silent for a few seconds, then, simultaneously, they all looked up—

It seems that there was only one approach available now: go to that island and find out the truth!

"Ding ding ding..."

Just as Qin Tian made this decision, his phone rang; the caller ID was an unfamiliar international number.

At the sight of the number, Qin Tian’s spirit was immediately electrified—it could be the opponent’s call!

"Are you the leader of the War Dragon team?"

Qin Tian picked up the phone, and immediately, there came a voice of a man speaking broken Chinese; it was the voice of a middle-aged man.

"Who are you?" Qin Tian asked in a low voice.

"Don’t ask who I am... The reason I’m calling is to tell you, your men... um, Zhou Yang... Li Jinyang... they’re in my hands. Get the money ready for the ransom," the voice said.

"How much money? How do I pay the ransom?" Qin Tian asked.

Meanwhile, Xiaozhuang was already preparing to track the location of the incoming call.

"Twenty million—how to ransom... when you’ve prepared the money, I’ll tell you. Oh yes, the twenty million I’m talking about is in US dollars. Du du du..."

After saying this, the voice hung up the phone. Qin Tian wanted to ask something else but had no chance to speak.

Xiaozhuang had just gotten ready to locate the call but didn’t have a chance to do so.

"The other party is very cautious; they probably waited to see if we were tracking them. Seems like a professional," Xiaozhuang said with a tense look.

A professional? How come a professional had targeted the War Dragon team?

Qin Tian took a deep breath, lowered his head, and remembered the middle-aged man’s words from just moments before.

The middle-aged man had gotten hold of Qin Tian’s number... and could directly call out the "War Dragon team" by name right from the start, indicating Zhou Yang and his team had probably fallen into his hands.

With the middle-aged man starting directly with a demand for ransom, it showed that he indeed was after the money, which at least meant that Zhou Yang and his team were still alive... Thank goodness!

"What do we do next, boss?"

Jiang Hu spoke up, with the other three people now all looking towards Qin Tian for guidance.
