Chapter 236: Hu Sha's Brutality

According to the data given by "Character: Jiaweis", Liu Xiaotian quickly confirmed three suitable sniping positions.

But when deciding which three people to assign as snipers, he hesitated.

Originally, he wanted He Chen Guang, Wang Yanbing, and Li Erniu to stay as snipers, but after reconsidering, that would not be appropriate.

Undoubtedly, among the ten soldiers participating in the operation, the ones he knew best were He Chen Guang and the other two.

Having them three as snipers would indeed give Liu Xiaotian more confidence and assurance.

Of course, if one claimed this arrangement had no selfish motive at all, even Liu Xiaotian himself would not believe it.

But at the same time he clearly knew he could not do that.

Hearing the captain's voice, the pirate named Han Si, holding a curved-blade military knife, split his mouth wide and smiled at the captain, his voice hoarse like a leaking heating valve: "Agreement? Captain, you're negotiating with pirates?"

At a glance, the version is mistake-free! %

The Chief Mate was dragged onto the deck like a dead dog by two pirates; in front of all the hostages, one pirate drew a curved-blade military knife, and with two "Swish—" strokes cut two wounds on each side of the Chief Mate's cheeks, each about a finger deep.

The Dream Vessel had been under pirate control for over two hours; in this empty sea area, not to mention aircraft, not even a single ship had appeared, indicating that so far no one had come to rescue them.

"Han Si, release the blood filled with fear and evil from our dear Chief Mate's body, then please return him to this sea, or rather…… return him to the sharks beneath the sea surface……"

The length of the rope was just enough to ensure the Chief Mate's body would be positioned about three to four meters below the sea surface, which is already close to the hull's depth.

Ranking third was a soldier named Curtis, who currently had a 9mm caliber sniper rifle on his back.

At the same time, Hu Sha, sitting in the Dream Vessel's control room, raised his wrist to check the time, then looked at the insider his men had found who had tampered with the Dream Vessel's GPS system—the Chief Mate—and a cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth:

Saying that, he moved again; the curved-blade military knife sliced through the Chief Mate's back clothing while also carving a horizontal wound across his entire back, deep enough to expose bone.

Wang Yanbing and Li Erniu, however, were more skilled in close-quarters combat, whether with cold weapons or firearms.

Because, among these ten people, in terms of sniping ability, according to training scores, the strongest was La Li Ai, whom he had just rescued from the lion's mouth not long ago, followed by He Chen Guang.

This also included Zhang Lina, who was tied to the ship's rail just like the captain.

"Ah!" the Chief Mate let out another anguished cry, trying to roll his body to ease the pain, but Han Si stepped on his back with one foot, rendering him unable to move.

"No! Don't do this! Mr. Hu Sha, we had an agreement—I cooperate with you, you give me a sum of money; now I don't want the money, I beg you, please don't kill me! Don't kill me!" the Chief Mate pleaded hoarsely while struggling.

Her vision gradually blurred with tears, leaving only a sea of red……

"Oh my gosh! You can't do this! We didn't resist; besides, your boss already promised me he wouldn't harm anyone! And most importantly, the Chief Mate is one of your own!"

Of course, if it were Liu Xiaotian, he would surely be more confident than any of the ten soldiers, but as the Group Leader of the Action Team, he must personally participate in boarding and rescuing.

Liu Xiaotian gave the order in an unquestionable tone; after speaking, he dove back underwater, drew his own military knife with a backhand, and swiftly approached the bottom of the Dream Vessel.

It's clear that this guy's nickname "Hu Sha" was not casually given; his wounds were indeed not fatal, and if immediately bandaged and stitched, they would basically heal within at most a month.

As soon as he said that, the Chief Mate, who had already begun to regret, felt his fear peak instantly.

Several dozen hostages whose hands were tied behind their backs by the pirates, upon seeing this scene, almost simultaneously showed despair on their faces.

But once he was thrown into the sea, death had already become inevitable.

Wang Yanbing's pistol shooting, in six rounds at fifteen meters against sudden and moving targets, scored second only to Liu Xiaotian, who had system assistance.

The captain, tied to the ship's rail, saw this and immediately shouted:

"Ah!" the Chief Mate let out a miserable cry and collapsed onto the deck.

She, who had harbored hatred for years, now completely lacked the initial courage to fight Hu Sha to the death upon recognizing him; instead, deep fear and despair took over.

When he was thrown overboard, the Chief Mate was still alive.

"La Li Ai to the southwest, He Chen Guang to the northwest, Curtis due east—reach the designated positions in the shortest time, submerge and carefully observe below the water surface; the rest, immediately scatter and approach the hull!"

Facing this gang of ruthless pirates, how great is their hope of survival?

Whether the wounds will become infected after soaking in seawater is secondary; the key is that Hu Sha, who knows this sea area well, clearly knows that there are plenty of sharks beneath the surface!

Even without bandaging, as long as he is not further injured, those wounds that did not damage major blood vessels such as arteries and meridians would not cause him to bleed to death.

But in fact he wouldn't live much longer either.

Blood surged from the wound on his face, the everted flesh resembling two catfish mouths, and under the stimulation of pain nerves, it continued to twitch slightly.

After saying that, Hu Sha couldn't even be bothered to look at him again, waved his hand, and signaled his men to take him away.

Although his hands and feet were bound, with two of Hu Sha's men pressing him down tightly, he still almost broke free, showing how great the potential humans can unleash when faced with the fear of death.

Hu Sha's purpose in doing this was to have the sea's sharks serve as his "guards," so that anyone attempting to approach the Dream Vessel from beneath the sea would meet their end in the sharks' mouths.

The pirate named Han Si cut seven or eight wounds similar to those made when filleting fish on both sides of the Chief Mate's body, then had someone lift the Chief Mate, directly tie a rope around his ankle, and throw him overboard into the sea.

But…… in the eyes of these merciless pirates who kill without blinking, whether a man's or a woman's tears, they are still worth less than crocodile tears.

This shows that Hu Sha is not only ruthless, but also sufficiently meticulous in his thinking.

From the very beginning, he had calculated his "opponent's" understanding of him, and concluded that the opponent would certainly come, but not from the air; rather, they would approach by stealth beneath the sea surface.

After the Chief Mate was thrown into the sea, Hu Sha again gave orders to his men:

Every fifteen minutes, make a person like this and throw him into the sea, making sure to keep sharks constantly swimming around the hull……
