Chapter 1394 - Ambush At The Fortress (2/2)
Mohawk Rodney stood above the main entrance of the fort and had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Black Skull sitting behind the armored vehicle, he turned around and shouted at the people in the back.
“Open the gate!”
The steel front gate slowly opened, and Black Skull knocked twice on the top cover of the armored car. The driver sitting inside immediately stepped on the gas, and the whole convoy moved slowly again.
As usual, the slave hunters who went out returned with trucks full of loot.
But for some reason, when Black Skull looked at the gate, he frowned and felt something was off.
It wasn’t until the convoy drove halfway through the front door that he suddenly realized what was wrong.
Normally, Rodney would always wait for him at the gate when he returned; he would never stand at the top of the fortress. Moreover, they brought back more than a dozen trucks of slaves, but his subordinates did not even make a sound. Everything was so abnormal!
But when he realized this, it was too late.
“STOP!”
Black Skull shouted to the convoy behind him and jumped down. But before he could gain his footing, a deafening explosion came directly under the armored vehicle behind him.
“SH*T! RODNEY! I WILL PEEL YOUR SKIN OFF!” By luck, Black Skull survived the explosion. He wiped his blood-covered face and rushed beside the armored vehicle, then he fired back while smacking the armor, “REVERSE THE GODDAMN CAR! REVERSE! ”
But the convoy was already halfway in, how could it reverse out?
Gunshots and the sound of bullets flying ravaged above the fortress and flew inches above the trucks. The captured men and women screamed and ducked down. Many people were injured by stray bullets. The predators who tried to resist fell one after another in a pool of blood, and the entire front door had become a mess filled with gunpowder.
Catlin buried her head tightly between her arms as she listened to the sound of a heavy machine gun. Tethered to the chains, they couldn’t even jump out of the truck to avoid them. They could only listen to the sound of bullets whizzing through the air in horror and pray.
The sound of explosions came one after another, and the firepower ambushing Black Skull was extremely intense. In the constant attack of bazookas, the armored vehicles that had been modified either exploded or stalled. Only the four armored vehicles in the back barely escaped from the mercenaries.
When Black Skull realized that he had lost grip of the situation, he wanted to escape among the defeated predators. But since he already stepped into the trap, there was no way for him to escape. At this time, the mercenaries that took care of the predators in the back started to gather towards him and surrounded Black Skull and his elites.
In an unwilling roar, the demon who had harmed California and Nevada for more than ten years was finally pressed to the ground by a group of strong mercenaries and chained with handcuffs and an electronic collar. Rodney watched with guilt when he saw his boss get pinned down. Then he turned around and left with a look of shame.
As if a century had passed, the gunfire stopped.
Like other slaves, Catlin slowly raised her head from the clamped arms and looked out of the truck. A group of mercenaries jumped into the truck and cut the rope from their hands. At this moment, she met several soldiers in power armor.
“Congratulations, you’re very lucky that you ran into us after encountering predators.”
Jiang Chen walked to the front of the convoy, looked at the stalled trucks, and opened the loudspeaker, “I can see that you are residents of a fallout shelter, and I welcome you on behalf of NAC. Since you have already paid the price for your kindness, I won’t say anything more. You have half an hour to rest. If you’re rested, go and gather at the gate. There will be people here telling you what happened in the world and how you can survive on this wasteland in the future.”
