“Jiang Chen, get out IS’ patrol squad already noticed the disturbances on this side, and they are sending backup” Nick’s voice transmitted from the communication device

“Understood” Nick waved at Robert and shouted, “Quick! Start running”

Before he finished his sentence, Jiang Chen dashed out of the building and fired into the sky The gunshot dispersed all the confused civilians At the same time, he called Robert and headed directly into the alley

“Dauns” Nick cursed as he quickly began to move His position was already exposed when they cross fired

The Toyota pickup truck carrying heavy h the streets and headed for the building where the hostage was held The soldier on the pickup truck called the other soldiers while forcefully opening the switch, preparing to shoot

Tatata!

The bullets fired like rain drops, quickly suppressing Nick’s position which forced hiet on the floor and crawl to the stairs He then jumped up and fled downstairs

The IS soldiers were not to be taken lightly as the ten person patrol team carried their assault rifles and moved towards Nick’s location with the intention of surrounding him However, as a seasoned veteran, he stepped back and shot with his M27 whileChen used his EP to control the drone and avoided the chasing IS soldiers as they passed through the crossfire zone har Chen opened the door and pushed Robert in He then flew the drone in Nick’s direction

“I have been surrounded, you guys leave first” Nick gritted his teeth and glanced at the wound on his left shoulder He fired a few rounds with one hand and then ran into another alley

Although he ree was nowhere coularly patrolled this area Nick already accepted his fate, or else he should have already died in that small town in Kane

He would have repaid the favor

A griainst the dug-outs beside the road

He decided not to run anymore He wanted to teach these bloodthirsty hounds as the real warrior!

“Six o’clock direction, go through that alley, quick!”

The voice from his headphone made him pause for a brief second before he clenched his teeth and followed Jiang Chen’s direction into the alley Alht, with the corner of his eyes, a Toyota pickup truck that just ran across where he was

A drop of cold sweat rolled down his face as he i Chen’s instruction and o in it, there’s a back door in the roouidance of the drone, all of the IS’s h it was the complete opposite direction as the car, Nick chose to trust Jiang Chen’s instruction He kicked open the wooden door as he disregarded the screahtened ly held his gun up and then with quick strides he aimed at the back door

Slaht shoulder, slaot on another street

“Cross the street and go into the alley before you make a left turn”

The sound of IS soldiers’ footsteps and shouting resonated from afar Nick resisted the pain in his shoulder and carried his assault rifle across the street

The footsteps were h of relief before he took out the bandage He wrapped his wound while running Under Jiang Chen’s direction, he quickly got back to the car

“We have to hurry, there areChen helped Nick open the back door as he sat in the front passenger seat

Robert sat behind the wheel as he started the car Nick ripped off his shi+rt and changed into a shi+rt that he previously prepared to cover his wound

“Where are we going?” Robert drove the car out of the alley and scanned around

Jiang Chen reached out of theto retract the palm-sized drone as he stuffed it back into his pocket

“Head into the desert, all the roads are blocked off”

“God… I am still alive, this is unbelievable” Robert steered the wheel as he exaggeratedly let out a long sigh

“We haven’t escaped yet” Jiang Chen said with a bitter smile He still did underestimate the ability of the terrorists as they responded with such swiftness The original plan was to follow the road and head back into Baghdad

“IS is ht you had plans,” Nick had hesitated for aChen heard the words as he smiled with bitterness

[I really don’t have a plan, looks like I have been too cocky this tiht by the IS since he could always hide in the apocalypse However, he couldn’t bring Robert and Nick over

“…” Robert sensed the aardness on Jiang Chen’s face as he laughed “Don’t worry, we’ll see as we go They can’t be chasing us forever”

He opened the GPS on the car

“We still have enough fuel We’ll cross the desert and go from the northern side of the Tharthar Lake to Tikrit If we are lucky, the government force should be in control of the area” A s Chen couldn’t even smile at all

In other words, if Tikrit is under the control of IS

They amble

If he kneas so problematic… It’s fine since he was already here and had the opportunity to test the strength of this equip Chen shook his head as he closed his eyes to rest Surprisingly, he realized that he no longer felt unco people

It was hard to say if it was a good thing or not

Perhaps it was because all the people he killed deserved it Jiang Chen remembered the atrocious acts conducted by the IS as he tried to justify his actions

Robert looked rather optiuy probably has seen too many deaths to be bothered by it

Once the explosive song played, the car lifted the dust up on the sandy ground and drove into the endless desert
