Outside the dry cave is a dark forest. There is no water inside the cave and it is not humid. It is the most suitable place for humans to stay overnight in the forest.
A bonfire was burning in the center of the cave. Below the jumping flames was a pile of half-burned dry wood. The flames emitted a warm temperature, making the cold cave less cold at night.
The mercenary team has a total of 16 people, composed of half of a fifth-level mercenary group called "Grey Eagle". The Gray Eagle Mercenary Group is half Westerner and half Easterner, and the mercenary team here is also half Eastern and Western. They can be clearly distinguished by their well-defined faces.
There are fourteen mercenaries in the mercenary team who are fully armed with high-end equipment. They are led by the commander and deputy commander.
The leader is a young oriental woman, her name is Miweier. Miweier is wearing a black high-end combat uniform. The combat uniform outlines her plump and material figure. The shoulders, arms, back, chest, abdomen, thighs, and calves of the combat uniform are all covered by light gray heavy armor. The heavy armor's The material is an alloy made with new-age technology, which can block armor-piercing bullets fired by 7.62mm-caliber assault rifles. Compared with heavy armor with the same defensive capabilities, the weight is reduced by 50%, but it is burdened with the flexibility of movement. , both strength and speed must reach at least the level three enhancement standard.
Miweier has a fair and beautiful face, and her facial features are those of a traditional oriental beauty. Her long, pale blond hair was tied into a braid on the back of her head. She was neat and tidy and had the demeanor of a female leader. She was sitting against the stone wall of the cave, her elbows on her bent knees, her fingers interlocked on her chin, her clear black eyes reflecting the light of the campfire, as if she was thinking deeply about something.
Deputy Commander Nick Hess is a Western man in his mid-thirties, with tan skin, a long horse face, a hooked nose, thick black beard on both cheeks, sharp eyebrows and a pair of triangular eyes, with a very different appearance. Thousands of miles. Hess wore a black windbreaker with a high collar and a long hem, a gentleman's hat, and pointed leather shoes. His shoulders were very tall and wide, and his legs were as slender as scissors. He held a cigar between the index and middle fingers of his skinny right hand, a rare luxury in the apocalypse.
Hess took out a silver lighter from the pocket of his windbreaker, put the cigar in his mouth, lit it, then took a deep breath and puffed out the smoke. The corners of his thin lips raised slightly, obviously enjoying it.
"Haisi, how many times have I told you to smoke and get out!" Miweier suddenly turned her head, anger bursting from her bright eyes. She especially hates the smell of cigarettes, and she also hates men who smoke.
"Oh, Commander Miweil, it's so cold outside, just bear with it." Heiss smiled playfully, not caring about Miweil's words at all.
Except for Miwei, the entire team is all men, and most of them like to smoke. However, due to Miwei's majesty, they can only endure the addiction, or take some risks and leave the team in the dangerous jungle to relieve their addiction. But Heiss is not afraid.
Miweier narrowed her eyes slightly. She warned Hess all the way, but the man never turned a deaf ear to her words.
"I say it again, get out." Miweier said angrily.
Hess waved his hand: "We are all adults, don't be so petty. How about we change positions so that the wind blows in your direction." However, he closed his eyes when he said this, making it clear that he wanted Miwei. Move yourself.
Soon after, there was only a sharp and tiny sound breaking through the air. Most of the cigar held by Hess suddenly broke off. The burning cigarette butt fell in the air and landed between Hess' legs.
"Wow!" Hesden yelled, his butt suddenly jumped up from the ground, and the lower half of his body flew out of the lit cigar. He hurriedly patted the vital area in the center of his pants that was burned by the cigarette butt, while feeling sad for the half-length cigar that had fallen to the ground.
"Smelly woman! Look at the good thing you're seeing!" Heiss took the small half of the cigar out of his mouth, stared at Miweier and roared angrily.
Unexpectedly, Miweier changed into Heiss's previous posture, with her arms folded across her chest and her eyes closed, looking nonchalant.
"What did you say? I was sleeping just now."
Hess gritted his teeth, snorted, exhaled a breath of evil breath from his nose, and then sat back down on the ground.
Hess had no choice because he was the deputy commander and Miwei was the commander, and Miwei was stronger than him. He was convinced that Miwei had just pulled out her slender retractable sleeve knife, and with one slash, he couldn't see Miwei's movements clearly except for the sound of wind.
"Perverted woman..." Hess grinded his teeth and cursed, swallowing the bad breath. As soon as he started enjoying his beloved cigar, most of it was cut off by Miweier, and he was no longer in the mood to continue enjoying it.
The night breeze was gentle, and the location of the cave entrance meant that it would not be filled with too much wind. Hess glanced outside and thought of the dire situation now. He wished that the night would pass as soon as possible so that they could continue the pursuit earlier.
Some time ago, the leader of their Gray Eagle Mercenary Group accepted an S-level mission issued by the Seaside City Scientific Research Institute. The content of the mission was to hunt down Wu Qi and others who fled into the wilderness two months ago.
Tracking down a target who fled into the wilderness two months ago is no easy task, and there may even be no clues. But God seems to have arranged for them to complete this task.
On its way back to the base from the wilderness, the armored fighting vehicle of the Gray Eagle Mercenary Regiment was photographed by a drone patrolling in the air and captured an abandoned armored fighting vehicle under an abandoned highway. Hesitou kept an eye on it, crawled under the highway to check, and found that the abandoned armored fighting vehicle had the same number as the armored fighting vehicle of the Hell Lion Mercenary Group that the target drove away when he fled.
This discovery directly gave a major clue to the Gray Eagle mercenary group. The leader of the Gray Eagle mercenary group sent Miweier and Heiss as the team leaders to lead the search and hunt for Wu Qi and others. Hess is a "hunter" who has extensive experience and keen intuition for tracking the traces of his targets.
They searched all the way through a 5-kilometer radius centered on the highway, and finally discovered endless mountains here. The ecological environment of the mountains is full of vitality, and there are countless dangerous mutant animals and plants lurking deep in the jungle. On the other hand, they can also be food for the strong.
Hess and Miweil have been searching in the mountains for two days and two nights. During this period, they have encountered countless mutant animals and found some human footprints. It is obvious that humans live in the mountains.
Hess had an intuition that Wu Qi was recuperating in a certain corner of this mountain, nestled in a dry cave.
Unlike Miweil, Hess grew up as a child in the wilderness. When he saw that "Wu Qi is a man from the wilderness" described in the mission intelligence information, he had an indescribable special emotion.
Cannibalism between hunter and hunter is the most exciting thing to do.
