Chapter 174: The Driver and the Young Girl

A convoy of three vehicles was forced to stop a hundred meters away. Soldiers in camouflage uniforms jumped out to set up a perimeter while someone shouted in Burmese!

Lin Jian didn’t understand a single word, but he shouted back anyway, "Does anyone speak Chinese? My car broke down!"

"Put your hands above your head and don’t move. We are from Shan Bang."

A sergeant from the opposing side stood up and shouted. Lin Jian noted that the man’s Chinese was surprisingly fluent.

However, he still smiled and replied, "Why do I have to put my hands up? My car is out of gas. Can you spare some?"

The sergeant’s face turned icy. "Kill him! We need to hurry!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a heavy machine gun on the enemy’s side suddenly spun up, emitting a sharp CLICK CLACK sound!

At that moment, the hairs all over Lin Jian’s body stood on end. He thought, "These bastards! Why are they opening fire with a machine gun over a simple disagreement?"

Terrified, he pushed off with both legs and shot into the jungle like an arrow released from a bow!

RAT-TAT-TAT-TAT!

The large-caliber machine gun instantly riddled his jeep with holes until it started smoking! At the same time, several men armed with AK-47s fired relentlessly in the direction of Lin Jian’s escape.

"Maintain the perimeter! Push that car out of the way!" the sergeant commanded directly in Chinese, albeit with a thick accent.

Six soldiers rushed toward the totaled jeep while the rest kept a vigilant watch on their surroundings.

Meanwhile, Ma Yuguo was terrified. He knew a disaster was unfolding, especially since he had already guessed who these vehicles belonged to. However, he didn’t dare poke his head out. The moment he did, he would undoubtedly be shot!

Sure enough, just as those men attempted to push the wrecked jeep, several sounds of Breaking the Sky rang out. Immediately after, the six soldiers pushing the car inexplicably collapsed.

The sergeant jumped in fright, and everyone else was equally startled!

There had been no gunshots, yet the six men had fallen one after another. Then, the others noticed that the fallen soldiers were bleeding either from their eyes or their temples!

It looked as if they had been pierced by something!

However, while they were all on high alert, the sergeant suddenly felt a burst of heat radiating beside him. Before he could comprehend what was happening, a sharp knife slashed directly across his neck.

In the next second—THWACK THWACK THWACK!

Some men were pierced by the sharp knife, others were nailed dead by iron spikes, and a few were simply sent flying into the air for no apparent reason!

Hiding in the shadows, Ma Yuguo felt a chill shoot up from the soles of his feet. He thought, "What exactly is going on here?"

Naturally, a few sporadic gunshots rang out. But very quickly, everyone from the two jeeps collapsed into pools of their own blood!

Only the occupants of the Land Rover had yet to step out!

Lin Jian appeared from behind at some unknown point, casually resting an AK-47 on his shoulder as he walked toward the Land Rover.

RUSTLE!

At this moment, Ma Yuguo finally came running out from the tall grass. Sha Shun, on the other hand, did not emerge; it seemed he was still hiding. Ma Yuguo wiped the sweat from his forehead as he ran, knowing full well that a massive disaster had just occurred.

By now, Lin Jian had reached the door of the Land Rover. He tapped on the driver’s side window with the barrel of his gun.

There were only two people inside the car: a driver and... a female student!

Indeed, it was a female student wearing a blue-and-white uniform jacket and a short skirt, looking to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. The girl appeared utterly terrified and was frantically making a phone call.

The Land Rover’s driver didn’t dare to roll down the window or open the door because he was terrified of dying.

Ma Yuguo anxiously urged, "Boss, kill them! You can’t leave a single survivor!"

This coward was actually advising Lin Jian to slaughter them all!

Lin Jian gave him a surprised look. "What do you mean?"

"It’s the Peng Family’s vehicle! They’re from Shan Bang!" Ma Yuguo lowered his voice and added, "Whoever is sitting inside that Land Rover must be a VIP of the Peng Family!"

"What is Shan Bang? And who the hell is the Peng Family?"

"It’s... it’s a Chinese armed Power in Northern Myanmar. The Old Peng Family practically controls an entire province in Myanmar! Most of the people in that province are of Chinese descent!"

"Oh!" Lin Jian dragged out his response. He had indeed heard stories about the Expeditionary Army and similar groups that had stayed behind in Northern Myanmar.

However, he hadn’t expected the Peng Family to be so arrogant, treating human life with such blatant disregard!

Even knowing that he spoke Chinese, the other party hadn’t hesitated to order the machine gunner to open fire on him. Therefore, Lin Jian couldn’t care less about what faction or family they belonged to.

"Kid, I’m going to count to three." Lin Jian aimed the muzzle of his gun at the glass window and held up three fingers.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

RAT-TAT-TAT-TAT!

A full magazine of bullets poured out, but the glass only cracked in a spiderweb pattern—it surprisingly didn’t shatter!

"Damn, is this bulletproof glass domestically produced?"

Frustrated, Lin Jian took a large step over to the front vehicle, hoisted up the heavy machine gun, and swiveled its muzzle to aim directly at the Land Rover!

"Can you withstand this?"

The bullets for this heavy machine gun were at least two and a half times larger than those of an AK-47!

The driver of the Land Rover turned green with fear. He immediately cracked the door open and slowly stepped out with both hands raised high!

However, the driver’s body remained incredibly tense. He looked exactly like a coiled leopard, ready for Jumping at a moment’s notice.
