Chapter 983 - Solo Infiltration (1/2)
They had to rest for half an hour because the horses were disobedient.
The route they went on wasn’t the toughest. When Old Luo climbed this ice mountain in the past, he had to do it at night for all four times. He took off his gloves and grabbed a handful of snow to suck in his mouth. His tongue turned numb because of the cold. It cleared up his mind too.
“We’ll reach after pa.s.sing through here!” At 7 am, when a tinge of light appeared on the horizon, Old Luo laughed loudly as he stood at the hillside and said, “It’s still the same as the path I walked four years ago. The weather is freezing, and it didn’t snow at night.
If it snowed at night, they would have to walk through the heavy snow and strong wind. It would slow down their pace.
Looking at the windy and endless road below them, Xia Jinyuan squinted. “Let’s finish this route in one shot. After rus.h.i.+ng down the mountain, we’ll rest for an hour.”
They chose the hardest way because they were illegal mercenaries now! They mustn’t reveal themselves and couldn’t taint their country.
From 11.40 am to 7 am the next morning, they climbed the 6000-meter high ice mountain using 20 hours and reached their destination.
Old Luo didn’t go back immediately. He went to take a rest at the house of a local. Besides Ye Jian, who only shook hands with him and thanked him, the rest of the members of the Xueyu unit gave this friendly 43-year-old big brother a warm hug.
84 hours after K7 was held captive, the members of the Xueyu unit changed their clothes and dressed like the locals. They drove a jeep and moved towards the desert.
From the snow mountain to the desert. This was their expedition!
When they reached Registan, it was the early morning of the 6th day K7 was held captive. The seven of them didn’t look good at all. From their hair, all the way to their body, a layer of dust could be seen.
Registan, a dry highland area in the Southwest. A sand ridge with a desert flatland in the middle. There were no plants and not much rain.
