Chapter 506 Before Dawn
The seventh day of lurking in the cannibal's lair.
Zhou Hao curled up in the ventilation duct of the ogre's lair. Mu Yang's voice came from the micro intercom, "Zhou Hao, have you confirmed the coordinates?"
"Captain," Zhou Hao lowered his voice, "The lair is in a two-story building 2 meters to the left of the abandoned subway station. The victims are locked up in area B3, the main force of the ogres is in the B slaughterhouse, and the leader is in the deepest area C..."
Mu Yang hung up the intercom and turned to look at the SWAT team behind him. "Brothers, this operation is different from the past. Ogres are inhumane, so everyone must be careful. Remember, don't fight hard when you encounter danger, wait for support."
Chen Yifan leaned against the wall of the abandoned subway station, watching the thugs around him check their equipment. He raised his hand and patted the shoulder of his strongest brother, "Da Hu, follow me closely. If you see an ogre, beat him to death, but don't kill him too quickly. Leave a few alive for questioning."
"Don't worry, Brother Chen." Da Hu shook the mace in his hand, "If these beasts dare to hurt my brothers, I will let them taste the pain of broken bones."
At one o'clock in the morning, the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds. Mu Yang raised his hand, signaling the start of the action.
The SWAT team's demolition team quickly blew open the first iron gate. Gunshots rang out almost simultaneously, and the two ogres on guard were shot in the head before they could react.
Chen Yifan led the gangsters to sneak in through the ventilation duct and cut the wire mesh at the bottom of the duct with his saber. "I'll go down first, you follow me!" He jumped down, bending his knees slightly when he landed, and dodged a bone arrow that broke through the air.
"Fuck! Who the hell ambushed me? Damn, luckily I was smart." Chen Yifan didn't get angry at all and started to act while cursing.
"Something's happening!" Zhou Hao's voice came from the intercom, "There are ten ogres in area B1, equipped with bows and arrows!"
Mu Yang quickly commanded the SWAT team to find cover, "Sniper, eliminate the high-altitude targets!"
The thugs from the Sky Eye Society swung out chains, wrapped them around the ogres' ankles, and dragged them to the ground.
Chen Yifan took the opportunity to rush forward and slashed the ogre's throat with his saber, "Da Hu, go to the left! Er Gouzi, go to the right! An Nuo... Hey! Why are you following me?"
Ah Nuo held up the big stick and smiled innocently, "Brother Chen, my mother has been discharged from the hospital and is recovering at home. I found a nurse and rushed over."
Zhou Hao jumped out of the ventilation duct, cut off the ogre's communication equipment, and quickly opened the cage that held the victim. "Everyone follow me and run to the exit!"
The people in the cage were stunned for a moment, and then a commotion broke out. A child about ten years old trembled all over and grabbed the iron bars, his voice full of despair and expectation: "Uncle, can we really get out?"
Zhou Hao nodded vigorously and used the stolen key to open the chain. "Trust uncle! As long as you listen to my instructions, you will be able to leave here alive!"
The sounds of chains breaking came one after another. Zhou Hao looked at the more than one hundred victims in front of him, including the elderly, pregnant women, children, and many young people with serious injuries.
He couldn't help feeling sad, but this was not the time to be sentimental. He had to lead everyone out of this hell on earth as soon as possible.
"The injured person should walk in the middle, and the others should support each other!"
The crowd began to move quickly. A middle-aged man was carrying his unconscious wife forward. A large piece of flesh had been cut off from his calf, and his steps were staggering.
Zhou Hao immediately stepped forward and supported him, "Brother, let me help you." He took one of the unconscious woman's arms and put it on his shoulder, and the three of them moved forward with difficulty.
Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps and the strange cry of the ogre in front. Zhou Hao's heart tightened, he knew that trouble was coming. "Everyone, don't panic!" He lowered his voice, "Find cover and hide!"
Everyone was hiding in panic behind huge iron barrels and beside abandoned machines. Zhou Hao looked through the gap and saw five ogres holding bone knives and walking towards them.
A five-year-old child was so scared that he couldn't help crying. Zhou Hao's heart was in his throat. He quickly covered the child's mouth and whispered in his ear:
"Don't be afraid, uncle is here."
The ogres seemed to have heard the noise, so they stopped and looked around vigilantly. One of the ogres let out a strange cry, and the others gathered around where they were hiding.
Zhou Hao held the dagger tightly in his hand, ready to fight at any time. At this critical moment, an ogre accidentally kicked a bone on the ground, making a crisp sound. The other ogres were attracted by the sound and turned to walk in the direction of the sound.
Zhou Hao breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward with everyone. When they reached a corner, they encountered three more ogres. This time, they did not escape the ogres' sight.
"Want to escape during the chaos? Stop them!"
An ogre shouted loudly, rushing over waving a bone knife. Zhou Hao quickly stood in front of everyone, "Everyone run back and go through another way!"
He brandished a dagger and fought with the ogre.
The torture he suffered while hiding for many days made him less agile. Zhou Hao dodged the ogre's attack in a dangerous situation while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
An ogre's bone knife scraped across his arm, leaving a deep wound, and blood immediately gushed out.
But Zhou Hao did not retreat, he gritted his teeth and continued to fight. With his efforts, he finally succeeded in repelling the three ogres.
The crowd continued to run away, and they came to a narrow passage. There was a vent above the passage, and Zhou Hao's eyes lit up, "Everyone, get out of the vent!"
He helped the injured climb up to the vent, then climbed up last himself.
There was a pungent smell in the ventilation duct, but the crowd ignored it and crawled forward desperately.
Suddenly, there was a violent vibration ahead. It turned out that the ogre had discovered their tracks and started to destroy the ventilation ducts.
"Quick! Quick! Everybody speed up!"
Zhou Hao shouted loudly. The space in the pipe was narrow, and everyone's movements were restricted.
A young man with a broken leg suddenly rolled out of control. Zhou Haofei rushed over and pressed his back against the pipe wall, allowing the other party's bloody nails to scratch five bloody marks on his shoulder.
"Hold on to me!" He gritted his teeth and roared, tying the two of them together with a tactical belt. "As long as we have breath, no one is allowed to fall behind!"
There was a sound of metal tearing behind him, and several ogres broke through the hole and entered. Zhou Hao suddenly pulled off his shirt and stuffed it into the gap of the vent. The cloth was instantly shredded into rags by the bone knife.
He felt for the last flash bomb in his pocket, turned around and threw it at the pursuers, "Everyone close your eyes!" The moment the dazzling white light exploded, he dragged the team and stumbled into the fork in the road.
Zhou Hao leaned his back against the corner of the ventilation duct, listening to the roar of the ogre getting closer and closer.
He took out the chili powder bag he stole from the kitchen, tore open the bag and sprinkled it into the passage. The pungent smell instantly filled the air, and the coughs and curses of the pursuers came one after another.
"Turn right!"
He pushed the young man with broken bones into a narrower pipe, and the iron sheet squeaked under his feet. Suddenly, there was a sound of metal breaking in front of him, and a hole with a diameter of half a meter appeared above his head. It was the gap that the ogre had split with his axe.
Zhou Hao placed himself on the edge of the cave entrance and said, "Everyone, step on my back!"
