Chapter 184 Ambush

A continuous stretch of hours had already been spent on the road. Even if Wang Feng was not tired, he could not neglect considering others’ welfare. A long period without rest would likely result in a huge blow to one’s attacking power. If anyone died because of this reason, that would be truly unworthwhile.

Based on the marked route on the map, they predicted that they could reach the excavation site in two days. There was no need to rush at the moment.

After resting for about three hours, the day was starting to whiten. At this point, Wang Feng ended his practice, stood up and said, “Listen to my orders, everyone. Head forth immediately.”

Everyone at the scene did not truly sleep. Hence, after hearing Wang Feng, they immediately started moving without any delay.

They were the elites among all the army men. Every one of them would be a talent that any army would want to snatch if they were put outside. Hence, their self-discipline was very strong. It was not comparable to an average soldier.

A few hours ago, Wang Feng led them to fight a battle with a beautiful win. Hence, they now viewed Wang Feng’s knowledge in an extremely new light.

However, Wang Feng was truly not a qualified commander. Nevertheless, he was able to lead his team to annihilate another team whose members far exceeded theirs without any losses at all. It was rare that anyone could do this.

Hence, their faith in Wang Feng was full and they were also completely willing to obey his leadership.

Thirty-four people were on the move. However, since they were in an ancient forest, the humidity was exceedingly high. Hence, after less than half an hour, Wang Feng and his team were already enveloped by thick foggy mists.

In this kind of mist, it was impossible to see one another if the distance was more than ten meters. This caused many difficulties. Moreover, under such circumstances, even the mosquito repellents lost their use.

Fortunately, Wang Feng’s X-ray vision was not affected by the mist at all. Hence, under his leadership, the team was still able to advance quickly.

The roads that should not be taken and the cliffs where they would fall off were all seen by Wang Feng clearly. Hence, there was no trend of slowing down at all.

All along the way, Duan Yi was surprised as he saw Wang Feng guiding them effortlessly, as if the mist was not an obstacle to him at all. It was incomprehensible to him.

If he was the one leading the team, his best choice would be to take a break on the spot first and wait for the mist to dissipate.

However, if they waited for the mist to dissipate, that would probably be many hours later. That would be a long delay.

After advancing for about two hours, Wang Feng suddenly stopped. He raised his hand and signaled a pause.

“Stay on guard here. I will check out what’s in front.” Wang Feng spoke. Although he did not sense any danger, his heart already felt a sense of threat.

Wang Feng knew very well whether his sixth sense was sensitive. Hence, although he was not able to see any danger now, it did not mean that there was no real threat. His X-ray vision could see ahead by a maximum of two to three hundred meters. It was useless beyond that distance.

The white mist obstructed everyone’s vision. Wang Feng had to survey the scene ahead by himself first.

“Rest here.” Seeing that Wang Feng had left, Duan Yi also immediately set his orders. Regarding Wang Feng, they did not have too much to worry. Just as Wang Feng said, if he died, then these people would probably die even faster.

Now, they only had to wait for Wang Feng’s orders. As soon as he placed an order, they could immediately enter battle mode.

As he quietly sensed his way forward, Wang Feng made no sound at all. He was just like a ghost. Moreover, given the density of the mist, even practitioners would not be able to see beyond 10 meters. Wang Feng had a huge advantage.

His sense of danger must have arisen out of something. Hence, after advancing for a few meters, Wang Feng finally saw the source of his sense of danger. About 200 meters away from him was a station. These people were well-trained. Even if they were resting at that spot, all of them had hidden themselves very well without any sound at all.

From the front, it was not possible to see any of them. It was only because of Wang Feng’s X-ray vision that he could see them. If not, it would not have been so easy to detect them.

A rough count amounted to about fifty people. They also possessed fine weapons. They were much stronger than the previous team they annihilated.

He had a total of thirty men. It was about twenty men less than them. If they battled, they would definitely be on the losing end. Plus, from their skin color, they were definitely soldiers from a very powerful country.

The gap in manpower was way too huge. Hence, Wang Feng toyed the idea of killing a few of them first. However, after some observation, he gave up that idea. This was because all the men squeezed shoulder to shoulder and were fully alert. He didn’t even have the chance to strike.

“There is a team of fifty soldiers in front. They have very refined weapons. Probably the Western soldiers.” In the end, Wang Feng passed the message back to his men so that they could raise their guard.

The western army was very ferocious. This was already a well-known fact from the last century. Moreover, their country’s power was strong. Their artillery collection was also more than other countries’. To fight with them would not be advantageous.

Moreover, Wang Feng’s team had been greatly outnumbered by them. Wang Feng decided not to battle with them. Their mission this time was to deliver the national treasure safely, not to die from fighting these battles.

At the back, Duan Yi and the rest were a little surprised when they heard Wang Feng’s voice. Were these foreigners here to travel? They came in a few heaps.

First was a forty-men strong team. Now, it was fifty-men strong. They all outnumbered Wang Feng’s team.

“Then team leader, what should we do?” Duan Yi replied, seeking Wang Feng’s opinion.

“Very simple. It would not be advantageous to us if we just battle each other physically. That would possibly result in casualties. Hence, my suggestion is to avoid them by taking a detour around them by a few hundred meters.”

“And they won’t be able to detect us?” After knowing the size of the opposing army, Duan Yi, therefore, did not ask for a battle. It could be counted as he agreed with Wang Feng’s suggestion.

“Now that the mist is so dense, it’s not possible to see beyond ten meters. As long as we are careful, we should be able to pass safely.” Wang Feng replied softly, always on guard for the opponents’ movements.

“Alright. We will start moving immediately.” Having heard Wang Feng’s words, Duan Yi and the other thirty men hesitated no longer. They started skewing their direction carefully and advanced forward.

Taking a detour was okay, but they could not detour a few thousand meters. If that was the case, they would never know how much time would be spent in vain on the road. To detour by a few hundred meters should not result in too much of a straying off course. It was sufficient to ensure that they could reach the end goal by the set time.

Duan Yi waited for his men to move while Wang Feng was on the guard for any new movements by the foreign army so that he could pass a message to Duan Yi immediately.

“Reporting in sir. We are almost through. Please take care to escape.” Duan Yi’s voice rang in Wang Feng’s ears. Wang Feng heaved a sigh of relief.

Although he had the idea of killing these people, the opponents’ manpower strength was so strong that he didn’t know how to advance. He could guarantee that he would survive, but what about the other men?

Since he was the team leader they chose, Wang Feng had the responsibility to protect their lives.

There was only one life for anyone. Losing it meant that it was not possible to gain it back. Although the young officer said completing the mission was the most important, but human lives mattered the most according to Wang Feng.

“Take care to protect yourself. I will leave here immediately.” Wang Feng replied, wishing to leave the place.

However, at that moment, the earth suddenly shook fiercely, followed by the loud sound of a bomb. At the moment, Wang Feng felt his own heart being shaken violently by the earthquake. He cast his gaze towards a few hundred meters away. He bulged his eyes. In it was regret, but also self-blame.

“Enemy!”

The sound of the explosion was too loud. Hence, the foreign team that hid there started operating. They took their guns and headed toward Duan Yi and his team.

Within a few seconds, the battle began. The situation changed so fast that even Wang Feng did not react in time. Now, his men were already in battle with the foreign army. Fire sparks were flying around, entirely disrupting the peace of the forest.

“I will kill you all!”

Seeing that the two sides have already engaged in battle, Wang Feng knew that he could not walk away now. He immediately took out an army dagger from his calf, melted into a stream of light, and dashed toward the foreign army unit.

The enemy team almost outnumbered Wang Feng’s team by twenty people. At every second, some Huaxia team members might die.

Those were human lives. Wang Feng could not just stand by and watch them die in the intruders’ hands.

Cries of agony continuously entered Wang Feng’s ears, fueling the murderous intent in his heart. At that moment, he completely lost any rationality he had and turned into a murderous monster.

His moves were extremely ferocious. One move of his blade was able to kill one life. However, after he killed five to six opponents, he realized that there were numerous black guns pointing at him.

It was just that he already shot his gun before they started shooting.

The gunshot’s penetration ability was not even something practitioners could withstand. Hence, at that moment, about ten people had died under Wang Feng’s guns. Blood flowed all over the ground.

At this place, Wang Feng could use his X-ray vision to see the opponent’s situation. At that moment, Duan Yi’s men were already trapped in the opponent’s crazy attacks. About a few men had already fallen.

What was even more miserable was that the corpses were not intact. They had been penetrated by bullets.

This was the brutality of war. Any life could be lost at any time.

“Go and die!” Seeing that there were more guns pointed at himself, Wang Feng shouted vulgarities and his entire being disappeared from the scene.

At the next moment, the sound of “puff” reverberated. Those several people’s throats were slit open by Wang Feng in just the blink of an eye.
