Chapter 549 - Chapter 549: Small Mountain Village (2/2)

Mina rolled her eyes at Rice and retorted, “Get lost. I don’t want anything from you!”

“Haha, haha…”

Everyone started laughing all of a sudden.

Xiao Luo sat right at the corner without saying a single thing. He could tell that these American soldiers were trying to relieve their stress. This was a unique method to reduce stress, and he didn’t rule out that Rice may have a liking for Mina. After all, to each his own. One man’s meat was another man’s poison. Rice could possibly like someone different, such as Mina.

After a round of fun, the skies had turned completely dark.

Didn’t Hebrew and Adolf go to fetch some water? What is taking them so long? Why were they not back yet?

Powell, the muscular black man, furrowed his eyebrows and looked out into the night sky. He had a bad feeling about this and immediately turned around to Rice and said, “Rice, bring someone along with you and go look for Hebrew and Adolf!”

“Captain, there are only a bunch of unarmed villagers here. What could happen to them? Let’s wait a bit more; I’m sure they’ll come back,” Rice responded.

Powell had a stern look on his face. “This is a war zone. Anything is possible here. We’ve already lost two of our comrades on our way here, so we can’t afford to lose any more people. Don’t forget that besides the black Libyan army, Khun Sa’s Mercenary Corps are our enemies as well,” he growled.

“Yes, sir!”

Rice got rid of his lax att.i.tude, called one more member, put on their night-vision goggles, and headed out immediately.

“Captain Powell, Mr. Mie told me that he has already got rid of the entire Khun Sa Mercenary Corps. There’s actually no need for us to worry about them anymore,” Sarah pitched in.

As soon as they heard that, everyone in the room was stunned, but began laughing the next second.

Sarah couldn’t understand what’s going on. “You guys… what are you laughing at?” she said.

Mina gave her a cold glare and replied, “Ms. Sarah, how can you trust everything that this guy from Hua Nation says? Only this morning, I scared him so badly with one kick that he couldn’t even move at all. If I wanted to kill him back then, there’s no way he could have done anything to fight back. Just him alone, and he thinks he could get rid of the entire Khun Sa Mercenary Corps? What a joke!”

“They say that Hua Nation has rich and traditional values, don’t tell me that the traditional value they have includes bragging? Haha, haha…” another person said.

“Haha, haha…”

Everyone started laughing along with him.

“Why are all of you being like this? Mr. Mie is powerful, and he even…”

“Ms. Sarah, do you know why he wanted to come along with us? Let me tell you why.”

Mina interrupted Sarah mid-speech, glaring unkindly at Xiao Luo. “Because he knows that it’d be hard for him to survive in this place all by himself. That’s why Mr. Mie over here needs our protection. As long as he’s with us, the chances of him leaving Libya alive is going to be higher. Am I right, Mr. Mie?”

Xiao Luo laughed wryly and couldn’t be bothered to pay any attention to such an annoying woman. He decided to refresh his spirits by closing his eyes, and except for Sarah Mich.e.l.le, everyone else there was like thin air to him.

Mina gritted her teeth. For, by keeping quiet, Xiao Luo was putting up the best counter against her tirade and just made her look like an unreasonable old shrew.
