Chapter 128: The Rain Has Stopped

In fact, although the two of them had deliberately lowered their voices, they were both being protected in the middle of the group, so when Doctor Saitele asked the question first, their conversation had already been heard by everyone.

Therefore, the moment Sun Cheng finished speaking, Major Daqi turned around, looked at the two of them with a cold expression, and asked with a scrutinizing gaze, "You want to leave?"

"Yes, if possible, I hope you can come with us to save the other survivors on the island!"

Doctor Saitele was truly a tough woman; even after being stared at by Major Daqi with an unfriendly gaze, she was still able to say it regardless, her eyes sweeping over Major Daqi and his team one by one, filled with expectation.

Major Daqi was silent!

Avoiding her gaze, his eyes fell upon Sun Cheng. He studied Sun Cheng carefully for a good while before asking, "Sun, are you sure you want to leave with her?"

"Her husband is on the island, and so are my friends."

Sun Cheng did not say much. Aside from a few politicians, no one is born liking to lie, and he knew well the principle that saying too much leads to mistakes, so he simply gave a brief answer.

Major Daqi was silent again. If not for the sacrifices of Aifei, Luobi, Bonaide, and Bulian, he would certainly have agreed to help the people on the island.

But the squad had lost four comrades in succession, and everyone in the group was now looking at him. However, unlike the expectant gaze of Doctor Saitele, the gazes of the others were clear at a glance; they likely all did not want him to agree to this extra task, because the island was too dangerous.

After a moment of silence, Major Daqi finally made a decision. He took a P226 Shouqiang from his right leg, fished out two pistol magazines from his person, and handed them both to Sun Cheng.

"I also need to be responsible for my people, so, sorry..."

It was clear that he was giving a definitive refusal to Doctor Saitele; he and his squad could not possibly leave the Yanjiu Zhongxin to help them look for any survivors.

"What... how could this be..."

Doctor Saitele covered her mouth and whispered, clearly finding their refusal to help in the face of death unbelievable!

As for Sun Cheng, because this was already within his expectations, he took the pistol and magazines from his hand with a very calm expression and smiled lightly to express his gratitude: "I understand, thank you for your care along the way!"

After speaking, feeling Revenge move in his embrace, Sun Cheng felt a stir in his heart. He turned back to bow slightly to the group, then pulled Doctor Saitele along and walked downstairs.

Not to mention how the few people behind them evaluated them, as soon as he had walked a short distance away, he couldn't wait to take Revenge out from his embrace and look at the LCD screen. Sure enough, he saw a set of traditional Chinese characters displayed on it: "Cold Guard has completed the Task of evacuation and has reached the Garage along the ventilation duct. Shall I have it come over to rendezvous with us?"

Its sudden mention of the Garage made Sun Cheng's eyes light up, and he finally remembered that the Yanjiu Zhongxin had such a place.

Thinking carefully, with Revenge protecting him, although he did not fear attacks from the Hunter, he found the dinosaurs on the island very troublesome.

It just so happened that the island's security system had been completely shut down, and the carnivorous dinosaurs that were originally locked in cages had likely all run out now. Relying on two legs to wander around the island was definitely extremely dangerous, so it would be best if he could get a vehicle.

Having this thought, he immediately issued an order to Cold Guard through Revenge, telling it to go to the Garage, find a vehicle, and hide inside to wait.

He then took Doctor Saitele downstairs and headed toward the Anbao Bangongshi on the first floor.

"Sun, who exactly are those people? Are they the criminal gang we encountered this afternoon that was poaching dinosaurs on the island?"

Doctor Saitele stuck to him and asked incessantly along the way.

"I don't know. They look like soldiers, but it's unclear which country they are from." Sun Cheng answered her while carefully avoiding some traps laid out on the road: "I also met them on the way to the Yanjiu Zhongxin. It is said that a plane crashed in the waters near Nublar Island, and they are here on the island for search and rescue!"

Not only was Sun Cheng somewhat skeptical about this, but even Doctor Saitele did not quite believe it.

"Search and rescue? Does search and rescue require carrying weapons?"

Indeed, just looking at the weapons carried by Major Daqi's team, it was enough to fight a contact battle.

Perhaps because the ghost Hunter of the Yanjiu Zhongxin had its eyes on Major Daqi and his team, Sun Cheng did not receive any more alerts from Revenge until the two of them reached the front of the Anbao Bangongshi.

"We're here!"

When patrolling with the team earlier, Sun Cheng had noted the location of the Anbao Bangongshi. Seeing the door standing open, he still cautiously took out his weapon and walked to the doorway while remaining alert.

After scanning the office for a while, especially confirming several places where one could hide, Sun Cheng gave a wink to Doctor Saitele, who was locked behind him in unease, "Safe!"

The Anbao Bangongshi was in a mess, with quite a bit of blood left on the walls and floor; it was clear that a battle had taken place here not long ago.

"My God!"

The bloody smell in the office made Doctor Saitele cover her nose and mouth. The bullet holes and shell casings on the walls and floor were all reminders of how tragic the battle here had been.

"Don't look, hurry and find weapons..."

The Anbao Bangongshi was not very large; it was mainly a place for storing weapons, ammunition, and communication equipment. There were four double-door alloy cabinets lined up together and three desks in the office.

This was Sun Cheng's second time here. He had come once before with Major Daqi and his team, but they hadn't stayed here long at the time, so there should be a lot of things left behind.

Sure enough, walking to one of the open alloy cabinets, Sun Cheng immediately saw boxes of bullets neatly arranged at the bottom of the cabinet. He bent down to take out a box and looked at it; it was clearly marked in English as NATO standard 5.56mm caliber rifle ammunition, so the weapon originally placed above it should have been an M16.

"Sun, I found these..."

Doctor Saitele walked to a desk and opened a drawer. Her luck was good; she actually found a Keerte M1911. A smile finally squeezed onto her face; indeed, weapons could bring people a sense of security.

Sun Cheng nodded. After taking a look, he looked at the other alloy cabinets again. He had witnessed the battle between Major Daqi's team and the raptors; even the scales on the bodies of those beasts only suffered minor injuries from M4A1 bullets. Just in case, he hoped to find some big stuff.

In another alloy cabinet next to it that had also been opened, the top was empty, which disappointed him, but the cabinet below actually contained a few Hand Grenades and C4 Bombs.

The C4 was one thing; Sun Cheng didn't really know how to use that stuff, but he knew about Hand Grenades. He hurriedly took out all of those Hand Grenades; if used well, he wouldn't be afraid even if he encountered raptors.

But having Hand Grenades alone was definitely not enough!

The third alloy cabinet was locked, and he didn't know what was inside. But fortunately, although the fourth alloy cabinet was also locked, the key was stuck in it. Sun Cheng turned it and his eyes lit up. It turned out that the top of this cabinet held a few bulletproof vests and tactical vests, while the bottom held some military backpacks, waist bags, and the like.

He hurriedly took out two bulletproof vests and handed one to Doctor Saitele. He himself untied the curtain and took off the pack on his back, put one on, and then put a tactical vest on over it. He then took a waist bag and buckled it around his waist, taking the opportunity to put the Hand Grenades inside.

"What is this?"

After Doctor Saitele struggled to put on the bulletproof vest, she saw him stuffing his pack into a military backpack and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Some of my personal items..." He didn't want to talk more about this issue, so he changed the subject and said: "Help me look for the key to this cabinet; there should be weapons inside!"

Perhaps because he had agreed to accompany her to save people, which left a good impression on Saitele, this woman didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and started rummaging through the office.

After the two of them searched for a while and still had no results, Sun Cheng sighed. Looking at the pistol each of them was holding, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and say: "Back up a bit..."

After she backed up a few steps, he raised his gun, aimed at the lock on the alloy cabinet, and fired three shots in succession, finally opening the alloy cabinet!

The crisp sound of gunfire was particularly jarring in the deathly silent Yanjiu Zhongxin. Sun Cheng clearly knew this was very conspicuous, so to avoid unnecessary trouble, he roughly pulled the alloy cabinet open as soon as he saw it was damaged. When he saw the weapons inside, his eyes lit up.

"It was truly worth the risk!"

The cabinet was densely packed with firearms and weapons. The top row held four M16s and two shotguns, as well as a few strange weapons he didn't recognize. Half of the bottom cabinet held ammunition, while the other side had a few racks holding some military blades and machetes.

Sun Cheng hurriedly took two M16s, threw one to Doctor Saitele, and hung the other around his own neck. At the same time, he also took a cold, gleaming machete and tucked it into his belt.

After taking a few more magazines and putting them in his pockets, he still didn't feel at ease, so he didn't mind the weight and took two more boxes of bullets to pack away.

After finishing, just as he was about to leave, he hesitated for a moment when his gaze swept over the two shotguns, so he simply took one in his hand and at the same time took two boxes of bullets and stuffed them into his military backpack.

"Alright, let's go!"

After finishing his arming, Sun Cheng glanced out the window, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Outside, the rain had become sparse and was about to stop.

He then picked up two Flashlights from the alloy cabinet, handed one to Saitele boshi, and took the other for himself; he had just been about to say a few words to comfort her, when he never expected that at this very moment, a strange, faint sound would suddenly come from the corridor outside the office.

Sun Cheng's expression changed in an instant, and he instinctively ran toward the office door, using force to shut it.

Before he even had time to lock the door, he suddenly felt the iron door behind him being struck hard by some heavy object, nearly sending him flying.

"Hiss..."

Accompanied by a low, sharp bestial roar, a hideous beast claw, still stained with a faint, grassy-green foul-smelling liquid, was immediately forced into the office through the gap in the door that had been smashed open.

PS:

In the past, when writing books on small sites, I would basically publish ten or twenty thousand words or go on the shelves in the second month. Although I have always been told that for authors, Qidian is heaven if you can endure it, and hell if you can't, I really haven't been able to endure it lately.
