Chapter 380: Chapter 376 The Blurred Corpse

"Where are they?"

Zhu Hong, with a bruised and swollen face, dressed in a floral shirt, stepped off a jeep and asked the man in a suit beside him.

"They fled to the woods back there."

"Hmph!" Zhu Hong sneered coldly, "They really have some nerve, actually running in that direction. Can we lock on their position?"

"No problem." The man in the suit replied, "They all have signal receivers on them. I’ve hacked into their signal devices and can monitor their locations at all times."

"Good." Zhu Hong nodded in satisfaction and instructed, "Remember, the lives of the others don’t matter, but Nanrong Wanqing must be alive. If anyone dares to hurt her, it’s not just that I’ll be merciless—Mr. Yun won’t let them off either. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Mr. Zhu."

...

At this moment, the group who had entered the woods realized that their pursuers were not following and breathed a sigh of relief. However, unlike the others who were at ease, Kaelina alone was frowning deeply, her expression grave and vigilant as she swept her gaze around.

Seeing this, Hu Fei couldn’t help but tease, "Miss Kaelina, why so tense?"

Kaelina glanced at the fatty and coldly said, "If you knew what kind of place this is, I doubt you’d be laughing."

Hearing this, everyone became curious and couldn’t help asking, "Is there something special about this place?"

Kaelina explained, "This forest is the outdoor training base of the Broken Teeth Training Camp, filled with all sorts of dangers: landmines, traps, poisonous insects—you name it, this place has it. Every year, hundreds of people die here."

With her description of the danger, Hu Fei was immediately startled, and his smile disappeared as he asked with a face full of fat, "Miss Kaelina, you’ve trained here before, so you should be quite familiar with the environment of this area."

"That was in the past. The setup here changes every month, and except for Reylov and his instructors, no one knows how many dangers are buried in this forest. If it wasn’t absolutely necessary, I wouldn’t have led you here."

Qiu Yong said indifferently, "We’re already here; there’s no use talking about that now. Everyone just be more careful. Jiahao, you’re the best with traps and hidden weapons, keep an eye out for everyone, and try to avoid any traps."

"No problem," Wei Jiahao responded.

"Right!" Hu Fei had an idea and said, "Everyone, turn off your signal receivers. The reason we can’t contact Ling Chen might be because his receiver has fallen into enemy hands. As long as they have a computer expert among them, they could use the signal frequency to pinpoint our location, which must be why our hideout was exposed just now."

Kaelina nodded and said, "Makes sense, everyone do as he says."

After turning off the signal receivers, the group of ten followed Kaelina’s lead and headed deep into the forest. Only by crossing this forest could they circle around to where the motorboat was docked and leave the island.

As everyone prepared to cross the woods, Ling Chen had already reached the rendezvous point. Seeing the dry branches and broken wood scattered all over the ground, Ling Chen’s expression turned ugly. On his way here, he’d heard gunshots, so he rushed over immediately but was still a step behind. By the time he arrived, everyone was gone, with only chaos left behind.

Looking at the tire tracks left on the ground, Ling Chen looked off in the direction they headed and felt slightly relieved.

If Kaelina and the others were captured, these guys would surely return to base and not continue forward. Judging from the current situation, Qiu Yong and the rest must have successfully escaped.

Thinking this, Ling Chen immediately started moving his legs, striding vigorously and quickly catching up.

After covering a few hundred meters, Ling Chen gradually slowed down, using the trees in the forest to conceal his body. At this moment, within his field of vision, there were thirty men in suits, each holding a gun, lined up in a row, swiftly advancing behind the cover of several jeeps.

Seeing the heavy machine guns mounted on the jeeps, Ling Chen slightly furrowed his brow, not expecting these guys to be equipped with such heavy firepower.

Taking advantage of the enemy’s unawareness, Ling Chen took a deep breath, drew a dagger from his waist, and stealthily approached the men in suits.

Ambushing in the dark night was his forte.

To avoid startling the enemy, Ling Chen didn’t attack from the middle but instead circled to the side, looking for isolated targets.

After tailing them for several tens of meters, a man in a suit who was walking on the far left gradually slowed down. Seizing this opportunity, Ling Chen crouched down and sneaked up. Without waiting for the others to notice, Ling Chen moved as fast as lightning, pouncing like a wild beast, covering the man’s mouth with one hand and, without hesitation, drove the sharp dagger directly into his throat.

This string of actions was smooth as flowing water, both fast and accurate, silent as a whisper, and the people nearby didn’t notice one of their companions had disappeared.

After the man in his arms ceased moving, Ling Chen gently placed the body onto a pile of grass and continued to search for the next target.

Boom!

Just then, a sudden explosion erupted from the forest ahead, accompanied by dazzling flames.

What’s happening?

Ling Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Before he could think further, he saw the three jeeps instantly accelerate towards the location of the explosion, with the thirty-plus men in suits holding their guns and running full speed behind them.

Seeing this, Ling Chen hurriedly followed. He silently prayed, hoping it wasn’t Wanqing and the others who were in trouble.

After rushing for several hundred meters, everyone finally arrived at the explosion site. Scanning the surroundings, Ling Chen quickly climbed up a large tree, looking down at the epicenter of the explosion. He saw that the ground had been blown into a huge crater, over a meter deep. Not only that, around the explosion, scattered limbs and severed hands and feet lay around, bodies blasted beyond recognition, charred and bloodied, impossible to identify.

"Ha ha!" Zhu Hong, sitting on the jeep, looking at the limbs on the ground, sneered, "Truly, heaven helps me. Keep pursuing, they must be injured and can’t have gone far."

Hearing Zhu Hong’s words, Ling Chen, hiding in the tree branches, had a sudden change in expression, a cold harshness showing on his sharp, angular face.

Kaelina, Wanqing, the fatty, and the other seven, including Qiu Yong, he didn’t know who accidentally stepped on the landmine buried in the soil. However, judging from the mangled corpses, it was unlikely to be Wanqing, Kaelina, or Xia Yue, but rather a male.

What kind of cursed place is this?

Ling Chen frowned, unable to contemplate further. Seeing Zhu Hong and his group rushing forward, he immediately jumped down from the tree branch, circling around from the side. Not knowing the current state of Wanqing and the others, he had to overtake Zhu Hong, to find everyone first, lest they face more danger.

While he was deliberating, a series of sharp gusts suddenly struck from the side, flying straight toward Ling Chen’s body.
