Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger

Mountain Eagle got on the seaplane, just as the sky began to brighten...

The latter half of the evacuation was somewhat surprising to Mountain Eagle, because Black Fox had actually chosen to pull back instead of continuing their pursuit.

With their manpower, Mountain Eagle and his team shouldn't have been able to board the plane and leave so smoothly.

But reality was bizarre. As Gray Wolf took off in the plane, he still couldn't believe that he hadn't fired a single shot and had just carried a constantly chattering old man for two kilometers to complete a very important mission.

Anna was safe, and the blemish in Chi Hu's record was erased!

Sitting in the cabin, Gray Wolf looked at a yellow seaplane next to him; exchanging glances with his buddies, and in response to their curious looks, he spread his hands and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know how that guy did it..."

The assault man, Snow Leopard, nudged Glasses beside him, who was clutching a Barrett and wouldn't let go, and said, "That guy really carried one person and dragged another for two kilometers?"

Glasses blinked, then with a weird expression, hugged his arms and rubbed the goosebumps on them, saying, "Yes, I couldn't believe it either...

I could only take one person on a motorcycle!

That guy is a freak; I think our boss doesn't stand much chance against him..."

As Glasses spoke, a magazine smacked him on the head, making him yell in pain...

Looking at the reproachful expressions of his comrades, Glasses spread his hands and said, "I'm saying our boss couldn't handle him one-on-one, but we are a team...

Don't worry, just give me enough distance and I'll score for us!"

The somewhat handsome Snow Leopard pushed Glasses hard, annoyed, and said, "Why should we compare ourselves with such a freak? Making money is what's most important to us.

That guy offered a bounty of 50,000 US Dollars, and yet our boss declined..."

Amidst Snow Leopard's dissatisfied complaints, Gray Wolf's satellite phone rang; he answered it and spoke for a few moments...

"It's a deal!"

After making the agreement, Gray Wolf looked at Snow Leopard, smiled and said, "That guy is a cunning businessman...

Now it's 150,000 US Dollars, and we are to assist him in breaking into a lab and relocating a group of innocent people.

It's dangerous, but definitely more interesting than taking potshots from the outskirts!"

..........

Mountain Eagle ended the call then passed the satellite phone to a very anxious-looking Anna...

Watching Butcher kneeling in the cramped cabin, he cleaned and then bandaged the rib wound on Camel with big swatches of gauze; Mountain Eagle said gravely, "Butcher, how is Camel?"

Butcher replied, "A rib injury has affected the lung lobes, and there are external injuries from shrapnel below the ribs. He won't die for now, but to survive, he needs to get to a hospital for surgery..."

As he spoke, Butcher lowered his head in silence for a moment, then said, "Boss, you should have let me join you. I'm not logistics, neither am I backup; I should have been on the frontline..."

Mountain Eagle understood Butcher's feelings; he shook his head and said, "Saving people is the simplest thing, planning the evacuation is the real challenge...

Without the ten plus minutes you bought for us in the north, we would have had no chance of escaping.

Buddy, each of us has our own responsibilities..."

Butcher glanced at Mountain Eagle's chest and nodded, "Yes, each of us has our own responsibilities...

But surely, boss, your responsibility isn't to be taking bullets!"

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle nodded slightly, "This time, it was indeed my fault. I was too hasty!"

Butcher glanced at Camel lying on the floor and shook his head, "No, you weren't too hasty; you chose the wrong teammates...

This old man's shooting is great, but his physical abilities have equally diminished.

His body can't handle intense combat anymore. If it had been Pigeon, with the same injuries, he wouldn't become a burden in the short term."

Hesitating, Butcher then said, "Boss, Pirate and Post Box have almost fully recovered, and Pigeon has time; if you need teammates, you should bring them, instead of relying on these old men..."

Looking at Camel on the ground, Mountain Eagle flipped him the bird, but surprisingly didn't retort; he sighed and said, "The opponent was quick to act; the first wave of flares delayed us, causing this situation.

But I'll remember this lesson, leaving enough space for myself, as well as for my teammates."

Then, looking at Butcher who was about to speak again, Mountain Eagle nodded earnestly, "I really will remember!

I need a sharpshooter to cover me; Camel did well, but my actions put everyone on edge, with almost no margin for error.

This is my fault, and I will adjust according to what's needed and won't gamble with others' lives anymore.

Pirate and Post Box were badly hurt, they need time to recover; Pigeon needs to look after his daughter who just had surgery, let them rest up properly.

It wasn't easy to find you guys, my affordable workers; the longer you live, the more I earn!"

Butcher isn't one for sweet talk. Facing Mountain Eagle's sincere admission, he could only nod in silence...

At that moment, Camel raised his hand and waved, saying, "Hey, isn't it about time I get a shot of morphine? I'm in so much pain I'm about to piss my pants..."

Watching the Butcher impatiently inject a dose of morphine into himself, Camel closed his eyes with a sigh, then said to the Butcher, "Kid, if you really care about your boss, you should learn a few more things.

If you could fly a plane, Eddie could've followed along and helped...

If you were a sharpshooter, you could operate with us, letting the Little Dog Team replace you...

But now you're neither, acting like a resentful wife blaming your boss for leaving you behind."

Camel then looked at Mountain Eagle and said, "Kid, half of my injuries were caused by you. I probably won't be able to take part in whatever is coming. You need to take good care of my daughter.

If something happens to Tiffany..."

Mountain Eagle looked at Camel, who was barely able to keep his eyelids open due to the effects of morphine, desperately trying to stay awake by talking constantly. He sighed and waved his hand, "Don't talk, we've got a long flight ahead. Save your energy for the hospital..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle looked at the cockpit in front and called out, "Eddie, how long to Fairbanks?"

Eddie looked back and said, "4 hours. You'd better contact the hospital there to prepare the operating room. Camel is an old bastard; it'd be a pity if he died!"

Mountain Eagle nodded, about to ask Anna to return the satellite phone to him when she hung up the call and said, "Blood Fox has arranged everything already. We'll land directly at Fairbanks airport; an ambulance will be waiting there."

Saying this, Anna looked at Mountain Eagle with a quirky expression and said, "I owe you my life!"

Mountain Eagle shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You owe me more than that..."

Anna reached out, tugged at Mountain Eagle's tactical vest, and forcefully pulled him closer, planting a firm kiss on his mouth...

It wasn't until Mountain Eagle pushed her away that Anna licked her bleeding gum, which was a result of too much force, and said, "Blood Fox has prepared a plane for me; I'll be leaving Alaska directly...

Sorry!"

Mountain Eagle nodded, "Your leg is badly injured. Are you so eager to go back and risk your life?"

Anna nodded solemnly, "The Black Fox didn't kidnap me just to target Blood Fox. Someone looking to take my place also played a part and even paid Black Fox a commission."

Anna then looked at Mountain Eagle and said, "You wouldn't believe how much Black Fox has earned!

Mountain Eagle, you've caused Black Fox major losses. He must die, or we'll never have peace."

Mountain Eagle frowned upon hearing this and said, "He made a lot of money?

Let me think, Snowden's bounty, the person who wants your position, Green Nature Foundation, what else did he make money from?"

Anna said with a somewhat somber mood, "Black Fox wants more than just money; he's finding ways to expand the Azov Organization he created.

Old Royce's death wasn't an accident. His son paid Black Fox 15 million Euros to find a way to kill his father, and at the same time, he would bring Black Fox into the Imperial Citizens Organization within the German Empire.

I have a pretty good guess about who wants to take my place. Black Fox received 50 million Rubles from that person and also gained substantial benefits from the power behind that person, which would give him a lot of advantages on the battleground in East W.

The Green Nature Foundation is the most straightforward; they just paid 10 million US Dollars to hire Black Fox to destroy Dimension Card Company..."

Hearing this, Mountain Eagle said in disbelief, "10 million? To destroy?

Where did this generous fool come from?"

After a few seconds of silence, Anna sighed and said, "The background of Dimension Card Company is profound, and a 10 million commission does not guarantee Black Fox's safety.

The guy used the intelligence provided by Green Nature Foundation and sold Dimension Card Company's information to another buyer...

For 20 million US Dollars!"

Mountain Eagle gasped in disbelief, "This guy has even taken the business this far?"

He did some quick calculations...

15 million Euros is about 19 million US Dollars at the current rate, 50 million Rubles can be converted to 1 million US Dollars, that's 20 million...

Add Green Nature's 10 million, Snowden's bounty of 20 million, and the 20 million from Dimension Card Company's research data...

That's a total of 70 million US Dollars!

Damn, even a listed company's profit in a year doesn't reach 70 million US Dollars; Mountain Eagle has only managed to profit around 40 million by leveraging his influence and exploiting Thailand.

For all this, Mountain Eagle spent a lot of time scheming, while Black Fox used Snowden's bounty as seed money and managed to raise a massive commission of 70 million US Dollars within a short time.

No wonder he's willing to pay a high price to hire Jungle Ant, no wonder he's willing to offend the Thai Government to death just to create havoc there and take down Anna...

If Black Fox succeeds with this move, the network of connections he pulls together, along with this money, will instantly fortify the Azov Organization he's building, giving him a pivotal position within European right-wing groups.

If he pulls this off, the guy will definitely make history in the mercenary world!

Of course, Black Fox has angered many along the way...

Pirate King Fayiz, the Thai Government, the forces behind Anna, and the powers behind Dimension Card Company, but most importantly, he has pushed Blood Fox and Mountain Eagle to a do-or-die situation...

This matter only ends with the death of Black Fox!

Interestingly enough, for Mountain Eagle, even if Black Fox dies, except for Snowden's bounty and the trivial sum from Anna's rivals, the other tasks can still be continued...

Who can refuse to get rich all at once?
