Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger
Chapter 787 - 733: Laying the Trap
Mountain Eagle wore casual outdoor gear, leaning against an F150 pickup truck, standing near the exit of Anchorage Airport...
Donkey and Sealion drove an F150 and a Toyota Coaster minivan respectively, parked behind the vehicle Mountain Eagle was leaning on.
Mountain Eagle deliberately exposed himself to attract the attention of the potential Demon Group.
In his previous conversation with Blood Fox, much was 'speculation,' so he wasn't sure if the Demon Group from the Edward Foundation would appear or target Tessa.
Compared to Tessa, Mountain Eagle preferred to use himself as bait...
He cleverly selected his position, using the cover above the exit to avoid the airport buildings, and since there were no tall buildings nearby, the only high-rise that could see his location from afar was nearly a kilometer away.
If someone from the other side was stationed at the airport exit, once they spotted Mountain Eagle, they'd have a hard time resisting the urge to try something.
Because Mountain Eagle is the core of everything; once he dies, all matters will sort themselves out!
A crow perched on a lamppost, its red eyes observing the people moving around Mountain Eagle...
Several drivers seemed to be waiting for guests and were prominently marked by Mountain Eagle, as he had been there for about an hour and a half, and while dozens of waves of passengers had come out of the airport and vehicles had come and gone, those drivers remained in place.
This is not the style of American drivers...
However, Mountain Eagle didn't believe the Demon Group would dare to start a firefight at Anchorage Airport; for safety's sake, he even called Sheriff Redick to have him dispatch two patrol cars to guard the airport...
If the Demon Group were to recklessly start a firefight here...
It would be perfect!
Mountain Eagle's own thoughts didn't fully align with Blood Fox and the others; he acknowledged they were acting in his interest, wanting to centralize everything in Alaska using dislocated information, to the extent he even brought his wife and children here!
Though bringing his wife and kids seemed risky, inwardly he felt secure.
However, Tessa's sudden appearance and the potential emergence of the Demon Group unsettled him a bit.
Because there were many uncertain factors...
The combat power of the 191 Battalion, the number and weapons of the opposing side, their strategic choices...
Dealing with such situations relies on adaptability; Mountain Eagle was indifferent for himself, but when it involved Tessa, he'd prefer to bring in Anchorage's security forces for assistance, thereby exerting pressure on the opponent and forcing them to make mistakes.
Unfortunately, it was unclear whether they hadn't appeared or simply hadn't expected Mountain Eagle to show up, leaving them bewildered about what to do.
Regardless, Mountain Eagle had been watching the suspicious drivers for a while without any special response from them.
As the plane carrying Tessa and the others was about to land, Mountain Eagle pressed his earpiece, saying, "How's the situation over there? Did we guess wrong?
Or was their chosen position poor, so they haven't even seen me?"
Blood Fox, wearing a cleaning uniform, pushed a tool cart and wandered near the arrivals area, finally stopping at the restroom door to use the tool cart for surveillance on people around the arrivals area...
Upon hearing Mountain Eagle's questions, Blood Fox said in a deep voice: "I spotted two suspicious people, white men, dark down jackets, black knitted hats, jeans, military boots...
One has a conspicuous scar on his face, and the other has two fingers missing from his left hand..."
After speaking, Blood Fox seemed to sense Mountain Eagle's impatience and said in a deep voice, "Mountain Eagle, stay patient. They don't know you're here for pickup; their target is to kidnap Tessa, and they certainly won't execute the task near the airport.
Their agents inside the airport are tasked with tracking Tessa and ambushing them on the road based on chosen routes.
Your private airport is no secret to those with intent...
If I were you, I'd anticipate those people appearing and set ambushes along the way.
Otherwise, you'd have to worry about whether they'd risk deploying anti-aircraft missiles to ambush outside your airport."
Mountain Eagle rubbed his nose, itching from the chilly wind, sighed, and said, "I'd rather they be outside my airport, now the weather is cold, and it's even colder on the airport side...
I wouldn't mind staying at the airport for two days, freezing these bastards to death!"
Mountain Eagle didn't mention the overwhelming situational awareness provided by his crow in the wilderness, but Blood Fox clearly sensed Mountain Eagle preferred not to engage the Demon Group on the road, likely because he was concerned about Tessa's safety.
The veteran agent sighed somewhat helplessly and said, "Mountain Eagle, don't expose your weakness!
The more you show concern, the greater the risk Tessa will face in the future.
It's evident someone's realized Tessa is a key from Thailand, so you need to make her understand the potential risks she'll face, so she remains vigilant.
Do you think she will, like Mrs. Li, accept a group of special service personnel who follow her 24/7?"
Mountain Eagle sighed upon hearing this and said, "Even Tessa's father doesn't have such privileges; how could she accept?
Thus, rather than letting myself worry endlessly, maybe I should find a way to persuade Tessa to serve as a liaison for a police team at East University.
There enemies are fewer and it's hard for them to find suitable weapons!"
Saying this, Mountain Eagle rubbed his cheeks in frustration, saying, "Fuck, I've made all the plans, why would Pirate King Fayiz appear at this time?
I need at least a year to complete my revenge against the Edward Foundation, Vincent, and the Sinaloa Group; I simply can't spare the manpower or energy to deal with Fayiz...
I've not even thought about how to find him!"
Blood Fox listened and laughed, saying, "Kid, you need to get used to situations like this; if everything went according to your script, you'd already be the richest person in the world.
In reality, you're more worried about the issues between Mrs. Li and Tessa, aren't you?
There are some things you can't resolve, so let others help you think.
Daria and Yuliy are experts in this area..."
As soon as Blood Fox finished speaking, Daria's voice came over the radio. She laughed and said, "Boss, I don't mind spending an hour in your room every night...
Trust me, reconciling the relationship between two women is difficult, but finding them a common enemy makes things a lot easier.
As long as you agree, boss, I don't mind being the target of animosity from the two ladies..."
Mountain Eagle listened and said grumpily, "Just behave yourself a bit. After we get back, wear as much clothing as you can, make the neckline as high as possible, and wear pants as loose as possible...
If you dare to flirt with Tessa, I'll dock your salary..."
Mountain Eagle's words elicited a chuckle in the channel, and Gray Wolf said with disdain in his Russian-accented English, "Mountain Eagle, I always thought you were a tough guy, but you've let me down!
A man being afraid of women is the beginning of life's failure..."
Mountain Eagle listened to the voices agreeing in the channel and said with disdain, "You bunch of idiots need to have a woman first before you can criticize me..."
Just as everyone was talking, suddenly Mi Lu's voice sounded...
"Attention, two people carrying long, bag-like packages have appeared near the sniper point. Gray Wolf, prepare..."
On a tall building in the rear diagonal of the only sniper point left for the opponents, Mi Lu draped in a white camouflage cloth, held a pair of binoculars and stared fixedly at the rooftop 300 meters away...
When the two people pushed the door open from the rooftop exit and headed straight for the edge, Mi Lu patted the waist of the sniper 'Glasses' beside him...
"Attention, distance 294 meters, wind southwest..."
'Glasses' lay covered by a camouflage cloth on a waterproof mat, holding a VSSK sniper rifle in his hands.
This was a powerful 12.7 mm caliber large bore bullpup silent sniper rifle, using dedicated 12.7 mm subsonic ammunition, and equipped with a large silencer almost as long as the rifle.
This large-caliber sniper rifle, effective within 500 meters, was specially designed by the Russians to deal with terrorists who had used stimulants.
Traditional 5.45 or 5.56 ammunition has enough penetration on the human body, but isn't very effective in stopping those drugged enemies.
Sometimes those drugged terrorists could continue to fight back fiercely even after being hit by three to five bullets.
The Russian special forces suffered a great loss in this aspect during the Beslan hostage crisis!
The style of the Russians is so straightforward and crude. They may lag behind the world's top level in the development of advanced weapons, but they have ample experience in designing and manufacturing light weapons; as long as the frontline personnel make a request, they can design suitable weapons.
The VSSK is a product of this background!
Although it is not particularly popular due to its weight and ammunition issues, there is no denying its excellent performance in certain special scenarios.
Like now...
'Glasses' looked through the scope as the two guys started assembling a large-caliber sniper rifle. He aimed at the guy on the outer side and said, "Sir, should I take them out directly?
Their position is great, from my angle I can knock both of them down with one shot, ensuring no one will notice..."
Mi Lu glanced at the somewhat excited 'Glasses', and through a broader field of view saw Gray Wolf quietly appearing at the rooftop exit...
"Shoot the weapon in their hands, scare them..."
"What?"
'Glasses' paused for a moment, saying in confusion, "Is it necessary?"
Mi Lu said with disdain, "Are you an idiot?
We don't even know where the enemy's main force is, of course, we have to find a way to capture one alive..."
'Glasses' heard this, moving the muzzle while stubbornly saying, "But leaving one is enough!"
Mi Lu, while holding the binoculars and staring into the distance, said in a low voice, "Killing one is also fine, but you're responsible for handling the corpse..."
"Never mind then..."
"Bang"
Following a crisp sound like a pot lid hitting the ground, the bullet traveled nearly 300 meters and accurately hit the already assembled Barrett in the opponent's hands...
The exploding receiver and flying shrapnel made the two snipers cry out in pain, and they instantly dropped prone and began a rapid rolling retreat.
"Bang"
Another bullet grazed a sniper's thigh, blasting away a small piece of concrete on the roof...
At this point, the opponent had already determined the position of 'Glasses', so they simply stood up and rushed towards the stairwell entrance a few meters away...
But just as they were entering the stairwell, two steel pipes pressed down on their heads.
Gray Wolf, holding the unconscious guy he had knocked out, stuffed him into a large garbage bin...
Seeing his companion Snow Leopard smash their target's ear with a club, causing heavy bleeding, Gray Wolf went up to help shove that guy into another garbage bin, then said discontentedly, "We need them alive..."
Snow Leopard looked at the limp-looking guy in the garbage bin, shrugged, and said, "Just say whether he's alive or not?"
Gray Wolf had never given up wanting to compete with Mountain Eagle, and seeing his companion's rough demeanor, he sighed and said, "Our goal is to be number one in the world, we have to hold ourselves to the most professional standards!
They say they want it alive, so it must be alive, half-dead won't do!"
Meanwhile, Blood Fox appeared outside the airport after changing clothes. After taking a detour, he got into a taxi...
Once the car started, Blood Fox pressed the radio and said, "Tessa's group has arrived, Mountain Eagle, watch out for those two guys I mentioned earlier...
I'll handle the suspicious characters sent by Chakdi!"
