Start in Night City - #365 - Chapter 365
As bodyguards of arms dealers, they all know that arms dealers do not belong to any company, which means that when they are in danger, there will be no backup.
However, arms dealers now say reinforcements will arrive soon.
How is this going?
“That’s what we’re meeting this time
buyer. “
As soon as the arms dealer said this, everyone else was stunned.
I couldn’t help but wonder about the arms dealer’s mind. He must have been blown away.
“BOSS, are you serious?”
This is simply a fantasy.
They have never heard of a buyer not only buying things, but also taking care of the rescue mission.
These bodyguards are all veterans who have experienced a lot of bullets and bullets, and they are not newbies.
They feel that the arms dealer’s idea is very unreliable, and they will not place their hopes entirely on others.
“What if they don’t come?”
“Then let’s wait until dark and take advantage of the cover of night to…”
The arms dealer was still about to speak, but suddenly there was a burst of fierce gunfire outside the church, which scared the arms dealer and quickly shrank under the window sill.
“They started attacking.”
“Fight them back! Fight them back!”
The window glass was smashed into pieces, and bullets hit the outer wall, making it a mess.
The arms dealers simply did not dare to raise their heads.
He could only raise the kinetic energy pistol and blindly pull the trigger outside.
But soon, he realized that this would not work.
So he put down his pistol, took out a grenade, and threw it outside.
Just hearing a bang, the gunfire outside suddenly stopped.
The arms dealer took the opportunity to stand up, holding a gun in both hands, and pulled the trigger towards the figure lying on the ground outside the window.
The three mercenaries hired by the arms dealer to protect him also attacked hard out the window.
The number of rebels besieging them was ten times theirs.
But they were all militiamen with little combat training.
These militiamen can only sustain themselves by relying on the strength of their numbers, but if they receive a head-on attack, their morale will soon collapse.
After a firefight, the rebels who besieged the church abandoned more than a dozen corpses and fled in all directions.
Everyone in the church breathed a sigh of relief.
“They finally backed off.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of blood mist suddenly exploded from the shoulder of a bodyguard.
He was stunned for a moment, then he hugged his shoulders and lay on the ground screaming loudly.
It was at this time that huge gunshots slowly came from the distance.
Others shouted loudly, as if they were waking up from a dream: “It’s a sniper! Get down!”
When the arms dealer saw his men’s shoulders explode, he immediately fell to the ground.
No one dared to expose themselves in front of the window.
Even the bodyguard who injured his shoulder endured the pain and crawled under the window.
Everyone was communicating anxiously on the communication channel.
“Where is the sniper? Has anyone seen it?”
“I did not see.”
“Think of a way to seduce him and expose his position.”
A bodyguard took off his helmet, held it against the butt of his gun, and slowly rose out of the window.
boom!
The helmet was knocked off the butt of the gun, and a conspicuous bullet hole was clearly visible on the front of the helmet that fell to the ground.
“Grass!”
“Don’t move. Everyone, lie down on the ground and don’t move.” The arms dealer shouted, “Wait until dark. When it gets dark, the snipers will lose their vision. At that time, we will leave.”
“BOSS, what if the sniper has night vision goggles?”
The arms dealer was stunned for a moment.
Then I felt a numbness in my scalp.
If the sniper wears night vision goggles, there will be no difference between night and day.
More importantly, the car they parked outside the church was just an ordinary off-road vehicle.
If they leave the church, that damn sniper can easily shoot them one by one in the car.
The arms dealer punched the ground angrily.
Are you really going to be buried here?
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came in through the communication channel.
“We’re already nearby and I heard gunshots. Are you okay?”
The arms dealer immediately recognized who the owner of the voice was.
He said hurriedly as if grasping at a life-saving straw.
“The rebels just launched an attack on us, but we repelled it. Now we are trapped in the church by a sniper and can’t get out. Don’t come over yet. We don’t know where the sniper is.”
The arms dealer didn’t know how many people came from Su Xiao’s side and whether there were snipers among the people.
But just come.
The sniper can only suppress one direction at most.
If a sniper attacks them, Su Xiao’s people can take the opportunity to get close and kill the sniper.
And if the sniper chooses to suppress Su Xiao’s people, then they can come out of the church and kill the sniper.
As for the option of taking advantage of Su Xiao’s people being attracted by the sniper and then taking the opportunity to escape, the arms dealer didn’t even think about it.
Only the stupidest people would choose to betray their teammates.
It is clear that win-win cooperation is possible, but people who insist on betraying their teammates will not make it in the long run.
“Sniper? Okay, I understand. Just hide inside the church and let us deal with the sniper.”
The arms dealer prepares his men.
If the sniper turns his gun to attack Su Xiao and his party, then they will take the opportunity to rush out of the church and kill the sniper.
Although everyone knows that once you leave the church and are exposed to the sight of a sniper, you are likely to die.
But it is better to die on the charge than to huddle in this church and be killed one by one like a dog.
Several minutes passed like this, with no reaction from outside the church.
It was as if the whole world had abandoned them.
After a gunshot, Su Xiao’s voice sounded in the communication channel again.
“Okay, come out, the sniper has been taken care of by us.”
The arms dealer and his three bodyguards were a little unbelievable.
Is this solved? So fast?
Generally speaking, to deal with a sniper, you must first find where the sniper is hiding.
To know where the sniper is hiding, you usually use the reflection on the opponent’s weapon to determine the opponent’s position.
Or on their own side, they could find a way to deliberately lure the sniper to fire and expose their position.
But the arms dealer had been hiding in the church for so long, and apart from the one just now, no other gunshots were heard.
Therefore, he couldn’t believe that Su Xiao really killed the sniper.
Until Su Xiao appeared in the open space outside the church with V and Lucy, and impatiently shouted a few more times at the people inside.
Seeing them standing carelessly in the open space without being attacked, the arms dealer finally believed that the sniper had really been killed.
The arms dealer came out of the church with several of his bodyguards.
He was shocked: “How did you do it?”
Lidya Su smiled slightly: “Secret.”
Nothing complicated actually.
Like arms dealers, they have been suppressed by snipers, so they don’t know where the snipers are.
But Lidya Su is different.
Scanning with the tactical eyepiece, the sniper’s location was immediately discovered.
Then V charged Nekomata with one shot and took it away.
It’s that simple.
Su Xiao looked behind the arms dealer, and then he looked around.
He noticed that outside the church, there was only an off-road vehicle with bullet holes in its body.
This off-road vehicle can only seat five people at most.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for this car to accommodate a complete set of VR training equipment.
So, either the thing was placed in the church, or the thing was not with the arms dealer.
Su Xiao was not going to beat around the bush with the arms dealer, he asked straight to the point.
“Where is the goods?”
The arms dealer was a little embarrassed, he scratched his cheek and said.
“Before you get angry, please be patient and listen to my explanation.”
Lidya Su didn’t get angry, and planned to listen to see what he had to say.
“Explain it.”
The arms dealer wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
“When we were on the phone before, I already said that last night, rebels attacked the town where we agreed to meet.”
“Then, when I was escaping the town, I was in such a hurry that I didn’t have time to drive the loading truck, so…”
Chapter 307: The same thing, if others get involved, it becomes two accounts (3K)
Lidya Su raised her eyebrows.
“So you only asked me to come to rescue you, but you didn’t mention anything about the goods being lost by you. Are you afraid that I would leave you alone after knowing the truth?”
The arms dealer said in an apologetic tone.
“Please understand, I did it out of necessity and didn’t mean to deceive you.”
“Well, I can understand you. But if you put yourself in my position, you can think about how I feel now.”
“I know, I know, but don’t worry. I left a locator on the truck with the goods. Just follow the locator and you will be able to find the goods.”
As he spoke, the arms dealer took out a chip and motioned to Su Xiao to install it.
Su Xiao thought for a while and felt that the arms dealer had no reason to harm him, and he did not insert the chip into the nerve slot like others, but into the tactical eyepiece.
Even if something really went wrong, it would just be a broken tactical eyepiece.
So he took the chip and inserted it into the tactical eyepiece.
