The topography of the basement was not complicated, so there was no blind spot for cover at all. Neither Xia Jinyuan nor K7 had any cover.
Furthermore, Xia Jinyuan blasted the button with a bullet earlier and caused the people in the basement to misunderstand that the people outside had been killed. They climbed out of the secret passage to check. The hidden K7 also rushed into the secret passage leading to the basement at a dashing speed.
The gunshots came from K7 first.
The gunshots came from him and towards the targets that happened to be the first wave of people who rushed in after being cleared by T6.
There was no way for Z7 to see the situation in the basement. When he typed in the last string of intrusion codes, he bypassed the detection through the fragment package reassembly technology and entered the last set of monitoring with multiple coding and obfuscation techniques. He stared at the computer screen with a dark face.
“6 o’clock this morning, the man at the hotel front desk and the hotel manager appeared in the basement…” His voice was heard clearly, “One hour later, the surveillance system was changed, and the HA deployment was rebuilt, and several cameras were set up in the basement to become an independent intrusion prevention system. The hotel provides technical support. I suspect that the hotel was involved in the kidnapping. After returning to China, we must report the incident to see if they can find anything about it.”
It was unrealistic to have them come to investigate. Once the seven martyrs were rescued, they would evacuate immediately.
Everyone heard Z7, and Xia Jinyuan, who was fiercely fighting in the basement, shot and killed three pirates of the Puntland Group in a row and jumped down with one hand.
When he jumped down, he stepped directly on two warm bodies. Underneath, blood and gunpowder filled the air, the environment was very muddy. He kicked one of the flash bombshells that K7 dropped before jumping down. Xia Jinyuan hid in the corner of the basement, aimed his gun at the dark opening above to prevent anyone from jumping down.
T6 blocked the people outside with only the bullets he had. He didn’t dare to throw grenades for fear that the entire auction floor would be destroyed, burying all three of them alive.
“Retreat!” K7’s icy voice sounded. It was only one word, no other nonsense, and everyone understood clearly.
The entire auction hall was full of gunpowder and blood. T6 shouted, “If we don’t freaking get out of here, I swear I will be choked to death by the gunpowder! Our brothers are holding the situation outside; we can rush out from the front door!”
The vent was built on the top of the auction house, and they would need a rope to get up. It was easy to get down from the top but difficult the other way round.
Since they couldn’t escape through the vents, then they could only use the normal entrance.
And to help them with their escape, it was V8 and Ye Jian’s turn to make a move.
Two SA honeycomb machine guns at the front door, one was aimed at the entrance, and the other was aimed at the outside. V8’s finger was lightly placed on the trigger of the machine gun, then he said to Ye Jian, “Blue Bird, I will leave the gunner at the front to you. At my call, we will shoot together.”
The entrance was the entrance G3 made when he broke into the building with the jeep. Solving that gunner was equivalent to covering for G3.
“Roger that!”
Ye Jian replied in a low voice. She also placed her finger on the trigger lightly and had the scope aimed at the gunner’s brains. She counted together with V8.
One
Two
Three
Shoot!
“Bang…” The sniper rifle completed the shooting with a single shot. The back of the machine gunner’s head at the entrance of the street 876 meters away from Ye Jian’s position exploded, like a burst watermelon, as the 12mm sniper bullet went through it.
“Bang bang bang bang….”
V8 squeezed the trigger, and bullets rained densely and directly from the front.
The fiercest and most tragic battle had begun.
