Chapter 1316 - Lilith is on a Killing Spree (1/2)
Bogota.
On the roof of an apartment building just one kilometer across from Emba.s.sy Street, eight SEALs in urban camouflage were on standby. One of the snipers set up their sniper rifle, and another soldier opened his laptop and released the quadcopter drone from his backpack.
“Do you think they will show up?” With the crosshair pointed at the Xin Emba.s.sy, the man wearing a beret moved his finger slightly and said with a grin.
Outside the wall of the Xin Emba.s.sy in Colombia, Colombian soldiers with live ammunition had completely surrounded the entire building; not even a fly would be able to get in. However, everyone there knew that this level of security was sufficient to stop the living, but it could not stop the invisible “ghosts”.
Even so, it was not easy to save people from the watch of an entire company unit.
Although the combat effectiveness of the Colombian government army was weak, the soldiers stationed at the Emba.s.sy Street belonged to the company serving the president. While their uniform appeared no different, they were the elites from the army. They were not comparable to the SEALs, but by the third world countries’ standard, they were top-notch.
“They will definitely show up,” Jonathan said emotionlessly as he tuned the HK416 in his hands, “Forbearance is not their style or that of their boss.”
As a derivative of the carbine M4, the HK416 was undoubtedly much better than its older predecessor. The new version not only solved the problem that the gunpowder gas was easily transmitted to the gun, but it could also shoot underwater.
In addition, cutting-edge individual equipment such as a heartbeat detector, infrared thermal imaging, nano-ceramic body armor, and special armor-piercing rounds armed these SEALs from teeth to toe. Even the Advanced Project Research Bureau of the Department of Defense designed a piece of specialized equipment against Ghost Agents. Although it was still in the experimental stage, it was part of their toolkit.
The UA invested heavily in this operation.
Xin delegation that absconded in fear of crime was caught by the SEAL team, and Celestial Trade agents were killed on the spot…
When Jonathan thought about the headlines tomorrow, he got even more excited.
From the very beginning, the CIB put pressure on the Colombian government to restrict the movement of the Xin delegation as it was all part of a ploy on Celestial Trade.
When the man on the roof saw that a window curtain was closed in a room of the Xin Emba.s.sy, his eyes narrowed and he adjusted the scope closer. Then, he pointed the crosshair directly at the entrance of the emba.s.sy
But at this moment, an unexpected event suddenly happened.
The air instantly became much colder, and a white mist gradually condensed in the air, and soon surrounded the entire city. The thick white mist covered everyone’s vision with a layer of silk, and the man’s visibility quickly dropped below ten meters.
“SH*T!” The sniper cursed as he got up from the ground and put away the mounted sniper rifle.
The sniper rifle clearly lost its purpose in this weather condition.
“I’ve checked the weather forecast. It should be sunny today,” the SEAL who had been on his laptop said, then closed the laptop and put it in his backpack. “If the weather forecast is not wrong, then something is clearly wrong.”
“Weather weapon?”
“Maybe, maybe not.”
Jonathan’s eyes narrowed as he listened to the discussion of his comrades. He looked up, sensed the coolness at the tip of his nose, and inexplicable anxiety seemed to appear in his mind.
Intuition told him that this fog was not a coincidence.
Before he could hesitate, he touched his tactical helmet and ordered.
“Attention. Immediately enter combat position. Operation commences.”
And at this moment, there was a loud explosion from the suburbs.
The flickering fire light and giant black smoke cone were visible even through the heavy fog.
As if the city had noticed the abnormal situation outside the city, the alarms and sirens went wild on the streets. Vehicles and pedestrians rushed to the western part of the city. In front of the eminent threat of war, the traffic lights and traffic rules lost their effect, and the entire city turned into chaos.
