Quick, come with me. Ji Yi shouted, Someone is providing cover for us! Dont be scared!

But when Ji Yi turned around, he was surprised to find the students were already scared silly. The appearance of the barbarians was already terrifying enough. These students from Qinghe University were all protected even during the battle in Luoyang City, so they had never seen real bloodshed before.

This was because the students who were taken hostage together with Ren Xiaosu were freshmen while these seniors were taken to safety by the schools teachers after the thugs had entered the campus.

Now that they were caught in a situation where snipers were killing barbarians, some of them were so frightened they even froze on the spot.

The front lines were completely different from what they had imagined. Before this, they had thought they would just be sending over some supplies and staying behind to perform for a bit, and perhaps also getting asked to do some miscellaneous tasks. After that, they would return to Luoyang City with what theyd been through becoming part of their precious life experiences.

But they suddenly realized they might not be able to make it home.

When Ji Yi saw that no one was moving, he got anxious. He quickly turned around and shouted at everyone, Dont just stand there, run!

This roar jolted the students to their senses. Hundreds of people dressed in colorful costumes started fleeing. During this time, the small group of barbarians who had come to intercept and kill them had all died. Meanwhile, the snipers who were hiding somewhere had shifted their target to the armory.

The forward operating base had enforced a gun control policy within the base. In other words, other than the main forces that were about to set off for the front lines, anyone who entered the base would have to store their firearms inside the armory.

Logically, this forward operating base should have already switched to wartime military management, and all the soldiers here should have been armed to the teeth. But it was not known why that was not implemented here, leading to this huge threat happening tonight.

Coupled with the fact that everyone had been watching the cultural show earlier, even if they were to leave the venue in an orderly manner and head to the armory, it would still get a little crowded.

After the few hundred barbarians entered the forward operating base, they split off into several smaller groups of combat personnel to divert the attention of the forward operating bases troops. Meanwhile, the rest of the barbarians main force rushed towards the armory at a speed that was even faster than the Pyro Company soldiers.

When the Pyro Company saw this situation, they got anxious. The front lines had just sent back news that the barbarians were also more than willing to use firearms. If the armory were to get raided, the soldiers would have no choice but to grab whatever table legs were lying around to fight against the automatic rifles the barbarians would be wielding!

All of a sudden, an officer on rotational break who was leading several Pyro Company soldiers turned around and ran towards their barracks. He said, Everyones heading to the armory, so even if we get there, we cant get our hands on weapons fast enough. Follow me. Well retrieve the guns from the sentry towers!

The officer suddenly realized that even though the soldiers at the sentry towers had been killed, their guns were still there!

As he spoke, the dozen or so of them rushed in the direction where the barbarians had broken in from. They intended to retake the sentry towers.

But a small group of barbarians with huge axes blocked their path. The officers heart sank at the thought that they were done for.

You guys, head in the other direction, leave them to me. The officer thought that since he was also rated as a T3 combatant, he should be able to buy some time for the soldiers if he went all out against the barbarians. Although he would definitely die, if the soldiers could get their hands on the guns, they might be able to help the situation.

When necessary, the Pyro Company officers would not only sacrifice their soldiers, civilians, or unrelated people, they also would not mind sacrificing themselves.

The soldiers did not say much and decisively left their officer behind. They planned to go around the barbarians and make a rush for the sentry towers.

However, something unexpected happened. Before the Pyro Company officer and the barbarians could come face to face with each other, two barbarians were shot in the head at the same time. A thin mist of blood mixed with an unknown white substance splattered in all directions, staining the officers uniform. However, he immediately reacted, Snipers! Its the two snipers from Mt. Dashi!

He knew there were no snipers at the forward operating base as all of them had already been deployed to the front lines, so if two snipers were firing at the same time here, it had to be the two from Mt. Dashi!

At the thought of this, the officer got excited. However, it was not because his life was saved. Instead, he shouted, Both of you, dont worry about me. Please immediately reinforce the armory! Help our troops secure that location!

The report of the battle at Mt. Dashi had already been disseminated to the entire military by P5092. All the officers who had read it knew full well that two unknown snipers in that battle had contributed greatly to their fight. They were the best of the best who could take on more than 40 barbarians hand to hand!

For such people to suddenly appear in the forward operating base, the Pyro Company had to be blessed by the Heavens!

However, this Pyro Company officer had misjudged the distance between him and Ren Xiaosu. Ren Xiaosu saw the officer shouting something with his mouth wide open through the scope, but he could not hear what it was about. The distance between them was way too vast.

In this noisy environment, even if they were only a few hundred meters apart, they would probably still not be able to hear what the other party was saying.

Whats that guy saying? Ren Xiaosu asked.

Hes asking us to help the Pyro Company secure the armory. Yang Xiaojin said while holding the spotting scope, I can lip read a little.

Ren Xiaosu was surprised. This girl beside him was such a treasure. Why did it seem like she knew everything?

He muttered, Is there anything that you dont know?

I dont know how to cook, Yang Xiaojin said as she aimed at the armory. They were 1.2 kilometers away from it at the moment, so it was within range.

But when Ren Xiaosu heard that, he wanted to argue back. Youre clearly a master at cooking. Just say that you dont wanna cook and stop with the misleading!

But now was not the time to be thinking about this. Ren Xiaosu said calmly, Ill snipe the barbarians and help the others escape. You help with securing the armory.

OK wait! Yang Xiaojin exclaimed. Somethings happening.

Ren Xiaosu turned around and looked at the armory. He saw the barbarians making a rush for it, but the armorys door opened from the inside and a secret force of soldiers charged out!

No one knew when these troops had hidden themselves in the armory, just like how no one knew about the troops that P5092 had left behind at the camp.

It was exactly the same situation!

Ren Xiaosu suddenly remembered the commander of the forward operating base had said the cultural show tonight was requested by P5092. He said he wanted the troops on rotational break to get a chance to relax and enjoy some performances.

But why would someone like P5092 do something so unnecessary for no reason? The other party clearly knew this cultural show would easily attract an attack!

Therefore, the Pyro Company knew from the beginning the barbarians were still hiding their strength in the wilderness. After the special forces were split into several groups, one of them followed P5092 to Mt. Dashi while the rest remained hidden in the shadows.

Honestly, Ren Xiaosu felt that it would be such a waste if a person like P5092 did not join the Prosperous Northwest.

When this thought floated in his mind, Ren Xiaosu felt he could finally understand the Great Hoodwinkers behavior a little. All promising talent should head the Prosperous Northwest, for that was the best place for them to prosper.
