CHAPTER 477: CHAPTER 442: CRUELTY CAN CHANGE A PERSON

Wayne led 20 Indian Hunters, carrying many tools to the mountaintop.

Tiffany vehemently opposed involving Indians in the assault, especially with a daring reporter following.

But when she saw Wayne, under Mountain Eagle’s command, construct a tripod using three thick logs at the entrance on the mountaintop, then cover the area around the exit with camouflage cloth, and hang a pulley system on the tripod...

At that moment, Tiffany realized what Mountain Eagle was planning...

The entrance on the mountaintop was a nearly 30 meter vertical ladder; the tripod and pulley system were critical for evacuating the hostages inside.

The Indians were not the main combat force; they were the main rescue force.

After Wayne and his team set up the tripod and camouflage cloth, more Indian Hunters began ascending the mountain. They established response points at every dangerous node on the slope, installed fixtures, and then a group remained there to keep watch and wait.

Faced with Mountain Eagle’s arrangements, Tiffany was at a loss for words...

It seemed like he had rehearsed this operation many times in his mind; every step and every detail appeared to be under his control.

Such a person was either a megalomaniac or supremely confident in himself!

A distracted Tiffany saw Mountain Eagle glance at her, and she raised her hand to decline: "I won’t stay; I’m going down..."

Mountain Eagle frowned at Tiffany, saying, "What are you talking about? The HRT must participate in the action..."

While shaking his head slightly dissatisfied, Mountain Eagle said, "Camel and Eddie have praised your professionalism, but so far, I haven’t seen sufficient professionalism from you.

You need to focus, otherwise people will certainly die!"

After speaking, Mountain Eagle found Daniel, looked at a team of ATF Special Forces, and smilingly said, "I need two Bomb Disposal Experts, the rest stay to secure our evacuation route..."

Daniel nodded to the Special Forces members, then a young man with a long face and a middle-aged man with sideburns stepped forward...

The middle-aged man, looking at Mountain Eagle, said, "Sir, I’m Wrench, and he’s Shepherd, at your service.

What do we need to do?"

Mountain Eagle spread his hands and said, "Obviously, to defuse bombs..."

Wrench, with a solemn expression, said, "You mean there are bombs inside the mountain?"

Mountain Eagle shook his head and said, "No one wants to work in a lab where bombs are installed, but there is a lot of explosives in the lower space, and those people are now tying explosives to animals.

Your expertise will definitely come in handy once we encounter this."

Wrench and Shepherd exchanged a look, nodding heavily, saying, "Just give us enough time, we can handle it."

Mountain Eagle nodded, glanced at the MP5s on them, then pointing to Tiffany said, "Shepherd, proceed with the HRT. Wrench, come with me."

After speaking, Mountain Eagle walked to the entrance first, whistled sharply to summon Balang to his side, picked it up and strapped it to his chest, then hooked a secured rope to his descender, nodded to Butcher who was also ready, and said, "Butcher, turn on the night vision goggles, we’re going down..."

The two descended rapidly one after the other...

Observing Gray Wolf and his teammates, who had arrived earlier and were curiously inspecting the glowing crystals on the walls, Mountain Eagle smiled and said, "Those are Purple Crystals, not too valuable.

But if you like, you can take some back upon return, making jewelry for your girlfriends would be a good idea."

Snow Leopard, covetous by nature, sighed in disappointment, saying, "I thought they were something valuable..."

As he spoke, he took out a bunch of Purple Crystals from his pocket and threw them on the ground, saying, "Maybe I’ll come back after I find a girlfriend."

The Little Dog Team led by Gray Wolf was quite interesting...

Team leader Gray Wolf had a dog-like nose, the sniper Glasses was a chatterbox, the assault man Snow Leopard was greedy, assault man Rabbit had big teeth and always carried a carrot, and the two machine gunners Snow Wolf and Tractor Eagle hardly ever spoke.

These six were the elite of the elites, and under Gray Wolf’s leadership, their organizational skills were top-notch.

They were a standard assault Special Forces squad, differing markedly in operational habits from the following HRT.

The stunningly beautiful cave elicited spontaneous admiration from those who entered it afterward...

Once their eyes mostly adjusted to the light inside the cave, Mountain Eagle gestured for a gathering, then led the way along with Butcher, pulling the experts along as if driving a train, proceeding down the tunnel created by the lab personnel.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the space where the drone control group was situated...

Four members in blue work suits sat in front of several drone wrecks, busy dismantling usable parts to assemble working drones.

Mountain Eagle gestured for silence, then calmed the somewhat restless Balang, asking it to stay put. He then turned to Gray Wolf, who was close behind, and whispered, "30 meters, four people, let’s go..."

After giving the order, Mountain Eagle’s tactical system disabled a large area’s wireless signals around the lab. He then firmly patted Explorer on the shoulder, and both men rapidly dashed out...

"Da da, da da..."

"Da-da, da-da..."

Mountain Eagle and Butcher took the initiative to spread out as they burst out of the passage, leaving room for Gray Wolf and others to follow up and shoot.

Gray Wolf and Snow Leopard decisively followed up...

"Pop pop pop, pop pop pop..."

.....

Four drone-controlled people almost didn’t react before they collapsed on the spot.

After Tiffany led the HRT into the space where the drone control group was located, she looked at the four bodies on the floor and pulled Mountain Eagle to whisper, "This isn’t according to protocol, they were unarmed..."

Mountain Eagle waved his hand indifferently and said, "They could have been..."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle didn’t bother to argue with Tiffany any further, he pointed to a tunnel illuminated with LED light strips and said, "See that passage?

That is where the people from the laboratory rested, I want you to follow that passage down..."

Upon hearing this, Tiffany frowned and asked, "What about you?"

Mountain Eagle pointed to another slightly narrower crack in the mountain wall and said, "I will take the Little Dog Team down there...

I’ll go directly to where the children are held, and get those kids out first..."

Listening to this, Tiffany frowned and said, "What about us, what exactly do you need us to do?"

Mountain Eagle waved his hand and said, "Before I complete the first objective, I hope you don’t alarm the people inside!

My opinion is to kill everyone here and then quietly take control of the space where the laboratory is located.

However, you are the squad commander, you can adjust your tactics as needed.

Believe me, once you see what’s inside the laboratory, without my urging, you’ll know what to do."

Saying this, Mountain Eagle patted her shoulder and said very seriously, "I don’t know what you think, but I’d rather use the most ferocious methods against the enemy than carry my comrades’ coffins to their burial.

Stay focused, otherwise someone will definitely die!"

After saying this, Mountain Eagle didn’t give Tiffany a chance to speak, he called over Gray Wolf and Bomb Disposal Expert Wrench, and led them into a narrow fissure in the mountain.

The relatively narrow fissure made it uncomfortable for them fully equipped, but they were all rigorously trained soldiers and quickly overcame the claustrophobia brought by the unfamiliar space, following Mountain Eagle as he navigated the varying widths of the mountain fissure for about 50 minutes.

Tiffany led 12 members of the HRT, considered the top force of the United States law enforcement...

They carefully advanced through the narrow passage for 15 minutes and reached the exit, but at this point, Mountain Eagle and his team had not yet reached the designated position, so Tiffany stopped at a corner.

To the right of the exit was a rest room similar to a security booth, with several armed security personnel inside.

In order not to alarm them, one of the team members behind Tiffany took out a small remote-controlled car equipped with a camera from the damp ground, controlling it with a remote to slide into the inner space of the laboratory down a ramp more than 30 meters long.

Due to structural issues inside the mountain and the recent modifications by Dimension Card Company, the laboratory space was not tidy, the tent-based structures were kept as neat as possible, leaving an irregular narrow path near the mountain wall.

As the remote-controlled car delved deeper, the situation inside the laboratory unfolded before Tiffany’s eyes...

Dozens of scientific researchers in pale blue overalls hurriedly walked around busily inside.

More than 30 strong, expressionless soldiers, fully armed, guarding several very important-looking tents and an elevator.

At first, Tiffany only saw the anxiety of her opponents and did not see the things Mountain Eagle had stressed that could have influenced her decision...

But as the remote-controlled car went deeper, she saw a horrifying scene.

A few people in blue overalls pushed a hospital bed quickly into a sterile tent, and when the remote-controlled car followed inside, she saw a pregnant woman struggling desperately, but restraints made her immobile...

Shortly after, a man in a white lab coat administered an anesthetic injection to her, then very roughly cut open her belly with a scalpel, removed the baby inside, and the room contained an incubator.

Tiffany watched as the man in the white coat had no intention of suturing the pregnant woman but let her blood flow into the drainage channel along the stainless steel surgical bed, and after confirming her death, they put the woman’s body in a body bag and piled it in the corner...

"Next!"

Tiffany felt her heartbeat accelerate, she turned to look at her equally breathless teammates...

At that moment, she understood what Mountain Eagle had meant before!

She struggled to control her emotions, gripped the radio, suppressing her tone, and said, "This is Hammerhead Shark Team, I am Number 1, we have arrived at the designated position and have completed the initial reconnaissance...

When can we act?"

Mountain Eagle squeezed out of the narrow fissure, arriving behind the tent where the children were held...

Hearing the call on the radio, he took out a knife and slit open the tent, looking at the children of all sizes inside, he said in a deep voice, "5 minutes!"
