Chapter 40






 




With gun in hand, she closely followed behind Dt southwest.  They could no longer see Grunt and Inin behind them.







There was the sound of an explosion from the distance followed by a great plume of fire.




She rolled forward to the left and entered a convenient store.  Amid growing sound of exploding bombs, she heard Dt through the earphones, “Go upstairs.  Left back.”  She looked around and found stairs, hidden by a pile debris.




She jumped up in a few steps.




There was a trail of fluorescent powder on the ground.  Did Dt make it?  He was so smart, even buying fluorescent powder.  She followed the trail until she reached the rooftop and discovered that Dt was walking on a steel wire to the rooftop of another building.




“You really bought a lot supplementary items……”




Dt replied, “I only bought one gun.  I don’t have much ammo either, I need to use it sparingly.”




Appledog said,  “It doesn’t matter.  I have plenty.”











Not too long after.




Grunt told Inin, “d.a.m.n.  Inin, I fell into a well.”




Inin replied, “Ah?  I didn’t buy ropes.”




Grunt said, “d.a.m.n.  Actually, it’s a trap.”




……




Ai Qing could feel Grunt, who sat next to her, fiercely hitting his keyboard.




Grunt said,  “I killed one.”




Inin said,  “Let me go shoot some of the npc paratroopers to make some money.  Then I’ll buy ropes to pull you up.  Wait.”




Grunt,  “......”




Dt said,  “Where are you?”




Grunt answered, “146, 27”






 




That was at the north of the map.




Being attacked was a good thing because it also gave away the enemy’s position successfully.






 




Ai Qing and Dt had already pa.s.sed through the steel wire and jumped over a dozen or so tall buildings.  Dt didn’t speak, climbing to the rooftop of the highest building.  The sky was filled with dark clouds.  Only several enemy airplanes circling around remotely in the dark sky.  There was no moon.  The quiet only made it scarier.




They must keep the absolute silence.




They tried their best to reduce shooting outside.  Otherwise, it would attract the npc airplanes to bomb their area.






 




In the darkness, a silver light flashed from Dt’s hand.  It was a rope.




Their target was to the north.




With mutual understanding, they, one following the other, began to rappel down the big building.  Based on their experience, this high building had at least forty floors.  She stepped on the wall and hopped down ten more times.  She estimated she needed another three or four more times to reach the bottom.




Gun shots burst out in front of her.




The screen turned red.




She threw out a hand grenade.  But to her surprise, the opponent threw flares at the same time.  The screen turned white in an instant.




Appledog said,  “Someone’s on the tenth floor.”




A dark shadow rolled up besides her.  The sound of a machine gun firing and hand grenades exploding went on for a while.  She rolled forward amongst the debris and explosions, sliding to Dt’s side.  “You left.  Me right.”




Dt said,  “Wait.”




Her fingers paused on keyboard when he said, “Don’t move.”




It was too dark to even see their own hands.  Sudden

ly, four flares were thrown in front of them.  The white light torn open the darkness.  It was as bright as a shining sun.  Their screens became a sheet of white light.




They could see anything.  They couldn’t even judge where the enemy was.






 




……




Something was wrong…...they were stalling.




Dt looked at the screen calmly and said, “Retreat.”




“You stay ahead, I behind you.  We break through in one direction.”  Ai Qing moved back to the edge of the fractured wall but she soon found that, “The rope broke.”  Dt’s voice was unsurprised,  “Follow me.  We rush out from the front right.”




When he finished talking, a dark shadow charged into the white light.  She could only hear the sound of fighting without being able to see it.  Ai Qing rolled over and followed.  She didn’t want to risk firing her weapon arbitrarily, only following the directions Dt instructed.  She explored, explored, then suddenly, she stepped on empty air.  A trap!




She began to quickly fall.




Eighth floor, seventh floor, sixth floor------




A dark shadow rushed down and threw out a flying tiger claw to hook her. He turned around and jumped to the fourth floor.  The length of the rope, the impact of the fall, and her own weight broke her fall.  She stopped short exactly one meter from the ground-- --




She immediately hit s.p.a.cebar to jump.




She began climbing the rope. Seconds later, she landed next to his side.




She had just calmed down from the panic when she saw blood all over Dt.  He probably also stumbled into a trap.




Dt asked,  “Grunt, have you climbed up?”




Grunt replied,  “I’m still relaxing in the well-- --”




Inin yelled,  “Rope. Rope.  I bought the rope.  Get up quickly.”




Dt said, “They are stalling.  There’s traps everywhere.”




 




Grunt said,  “How sneaky.”
