The gunshots and shouts became farther and farther away, and after about two hours, they finally disappeared...
Zhang Heng preliminarily judged that they should have broken through the opposite line of defense.
The two came to the lake mentioned by the female doctor Maggie, and found a small wooden boat without an owner near the shore. With this boat, Zhang Heng and Simon could completely get rid of the pursuers behind them. , don't worry about being traced by hounds for breath or footprints.
However, just as Zhang Heng was about to board the boat, he was suddenly thrown down by Simon beside him. At the same time, a bullet hit the girl's shoulder.
Simon snorted. She and Zhang Heng had experienced so many rounds of fighting, and they reacted very quickly. Taking advantage of the gap between each other's gun bolts, the two had already dispersed, and each found a white birch as cover.
The second bullet almost flew close to someone's ear.
Zhang Heng was also shocked into a cold sweat. He didn't need Simon to remind him that the two had finally met a master this time. The previous battle seemed thrilling, but it actually reflected the ferocity of the opponent's firepower. It was really one-on-one. In the battle, the two always have the upper hand.
The cooperation and discipline of this group are good, but their personal abilities are not as strong as imagined. They are about on par with the guerrillas, but they are incomparable with Simon. Even Zhang Heng has a great one-on-one. sure to win.
But the guy the two met this time was obviously not among them.
Judging from the two shots just now, even if the strength of the opponent can't keep up with Simon, it is not far behind the latter.
This is a pretty tricky guy, ace in any army.
It would be okay if it was normal, but just now Simon was injured in order to save Zhang Heng, and the arm she was hit happened to be the right hand holding the gun.
Although her left hand can also shoot after training, its speed and accuracy are not comparable to her right hand, and it will be fatal in this level of confrontation.
Zhang Heng knew that the two of them had reached the most dangerous moment. Given the current visibility in the woods, he could not use the Moment of Shadow, which he regarded as the trump card. If the other party continued to maintain this confrontation and called their companions at the same time, the situation of the two would be severe. becomes extremely dangerous.
However, for some unknown reason, the guy hiding in the darkness opposite did not do this.
After those two gunshots, the forest returned to silence, as if nothing had happened. The breeze blows, only the small wooden boat by the lake is still wandering gently with the water waves.
Zhang Heng saw the blood flowing from Simon's fingers, and the latter frowned. Although he didn't say anything, the impact of this shot was obviously quite big on her, and her right hand should have temporarily lost its fighting power.
Zhang Heng took a deep breath and made a gesture of relaxation to the girl. In the past, Simon had always stood up to this kind of situation, but this time Zhang Heng knew that it was his turn to stand up.
He took out the wooden carving in his arms, and stretched it out quietly. The next moment, the gunfire flashed in the forest, and the sniper hidden opposite pulled the trigger without hesitation.
The bullet flew out from the barrel of the gun and accurately hit the protruding wood carving. Zhang Heng clenched his palm tightly so that the wood carving would not let go.
Then he brought the wooden carving back to his eyes. From the angle of the bullet, he could roughly calculate the position of the sniper on the opposite side. If it was Simon standing here, he would probably be able to shoot back.
However, Zhang Heng's words can only barely circle the opponent's approximate range with this little information, and there is almost no chance of winning if he pokes his head out so rashly.
There was already a big gap between the two sides in terms of marksmanship. Only by accurately determining the position of the opponent could he have a chance. So Zhang Heng took out a lighter with a shell casing that he had seized before, and used the same method to detect it. When he went out, the other party was not polite. This time, the cartridge lighter was thrown out of his hand.
Zhang Heng was not in a hurry at all, and immediately took out the third thing. This time, the sniper on the opposite side was smart. He had already guessed Zhang Heng's intentions, and he was completely unmoved and let the opponent No matter how tempting it is.
So Zhang Heng took the phone back two minutes later. He hadn't used it since he joined the guerrillas. Originally, there was more than half of the battery left, but after two months, it was less than 10% , but the 10% power came in handy tonight.
Zhang Heng is purely bullying the other side and has never seen high-tech. The previous two times were just smoke bombs, but this time he directly switched his phone to video recording mode, recorded outside for two minutes without any restraint, and finished it with a flash at the end. Four consecutive shots.
This time, he finally found the guy's hiding place.
The opponent was well prepared. Not only was he wearing a camouflage suit, but he also blocked dead branches and snow in front of him, completely blending in with the surroundings. It was almost impossible to find it without careful observation, but it was a pity that it was finally exposed by the 12 million pixel Leica under the lens.
But then comes the real danger.
Zhang Heng knew that there were two people on his side, and the other side couldn't guess who would initiate the next attack, so his energy must be divided between the two... No, no, Zhang Heng zoomed in again Looking at the photo in his hand, it can be seen from the above that the sniper's expression is obviously excited and eager to try.
Is this - enjoying the fun of hunting dangerous game
Zhang Heng suddenly understood why the other party hadn't called his companions until now. He was waiting here to wait for his prey. This was a hunt that belonged to him, and the pride of a master did not allow him to use any external force.
Zhang Heng is quite self-aware about this. He knows that the person the other party is waiting for is definitely not him, but Simon who best represents the white god of death. It seems that the first shot at the lake to kill him was also for the purpose of killing him. Afterwards, the two confronted and cleared the field, but they didn't expect that the shot fell on Simon by accident.
But even so, most of his energy is still on Simon's side.
Zhang Heng gestured to the girl, who nodded, let go of her injured shoulder, and held the rifle in her hand.
Even if he couldn't see the situation on the other side, Zhang Heng could guess that the sniper must be breathing quickly.
The decisive moment has come.
The next moment, a black shadow sprang out from behind the tree!
The sniper lying on the ground widened his eyes, his face flushed with excitement.
prey? ! No, it's a trap!
His brain quickly made a judgment, and it only took a few tenths of a second to realize that it was just a coat. Although he turned the gun, he restrained the urge to pull the trigger at a critical moment.
At the same time, he was completely excited. Since Simon made a move, it means that she must be ready to fight back, and now that the latter's trick is seen through by him, it means...
However, his pupils couldn't help shrinking immediately, because Simon didn't rush out from behind the birch tree she was hiding in. On the contrary, Zhang Heng on the other side rolled over and left his bunker.
The unknown sniper made a fatal mistake at this time. He still thought that Simon's side was the main point of attack. The previous clothes and Zhang Heng who appeared now were just distractions, so he didn't turn his gun at the first time.
Of course, this was also because he had enough confidence in the hiding place he had chosen, and he didn't think that someone would be able to find his exact location so quickly, so he hesitated for a moment.
On the other side, Zhang Heng picked up the rifle in his hand as quickly as possible. His condition was surprisingly good. The aiming and fixed posture that took time in the past were completed almost subconsciously. Through photos and videos, he He also knows the hiding place of the guy opposite him like the back of his hand.
When he was half kneeling on the ground, the muzzle of the gun was naturally pointed at the unknown sniper, and the latter reacted very quickly, turning the muzzle decisively when he sensed danger.
There was something ringing in Zhang Heng's ear, but at this time he was so focused that he had no time to distinguish it. The two pulled the trigger almost at the same time.
It's just that one person's bullet flew past the target's cheek, while another person's bullet accurately passed through the opponent's brainstem.
