The sky was starting to light up when the car arrived. Under the light, a line of men headed to the mountains, reaching for the Margalla Hills.
This was an iconic scenic spot in Pakistan. The hills were sparsely populated and there were not many people. On top of that, the political situation in Pakistan was not very good either. Climbing enthusiasts would never dare to venture deep into areas that had not been developed.
And Ye Jian and the rest were heading exactly into those parts – the undeveloped, dangerous depths of the jungle.
A jungle camouflage uniform was the best cover in the green jungle. They set off when the sky started to light up and they bypassed two climbing routes for tourists, entering the undeveloped area at three in the afternoon. That was also the area where the Pakistani government had marked as ‘No Entry’.
As soon as they entered the area, they were on high alert. With one leading the way, there were eyes on both sides and the back. The seven of them remained vigilant and speedily advanced forward.
“Everything is normal. Maintain our speed.” K7, in charge of reconnaissance, notified the brothers behind him through the headset, giving them a sense of security.
Kneeling on one knee, Xia Jinyuan got up and Ye Jian immediately held her gun up to guard the rear, following Xia Jinyuan as he moved on.
Although the hills were green and provided good cover, for safety purposes, they chose to enter the enemy’s base camp from the ridges using a GPS instead of the valley. As such, the entire journey was extremely dangerous. A missed footing could result in falling down the hill and hitting the trees.
The sun was setting when it was five in the afternoon. Ye Jian, who was walking in the middle suddenly smelled a faint scent... It was an unusual one. Ye Jian tightened her gaze and notified the rest, “There’s someone, hide!”
They were on the back of the hill and were already far away from the developed area. Any appearance of a human was not to be taken lightly, but... they couldn’t quite understand how Ye Jian had found out when K7 did not find any abnormalities.
“Smell, there’s a different smell.” Ye Jian was afraid that they didn’t believe her and explained herself. “I smelled different smells in the wind.”
That explanation was... not very convincing. But no one questioned her. Everyone chose to believe and trust their comrade! If there were any questions, they could ask it later!
Three minutes later, they saw two bearded men in grey robes, with machine guns slung behind their backs. They were also carrying an AK-47 assault rifle on their backs.
Besides Xia Jinyuan, the other members were wide-eyed... To be able to smell different scents in the wind, her nose is too sensitive!
Hidden behind the rock above, V8 signaled to Ye Jian and Xia Jinyuan who were closest to the two of them... Capture them alive before killing them.
“OK.” Ye Jian gestured back, silently exchanging a look with Xia Jinyuan. When the two had walked in front of them and they could see how big their feet were, the two struck at the same time. They grabbed them by their ankles and dragged them, making them fall hard on the ground.
Before they could even make the slightest sound, Ye Jian and Xia Jinyuan already had their knee on their backs and their daggers resting on their throats. “Stay down!”
