Tang Shu simultaneously disarmed the man of his gun and skillfully aimed and pulled the trigger at the others.
With several "bang, bang" gunshots, groans echoed once again in the rainforest.
Using the moonlight, Tang Shu looked towards the three people who had already left and saw that some distance had formed between them. She scattered the prepared sleeping drug, and the few who were shot and lost their ability to resist soon passed out.
Half an hour later, Tang Shu found the three people who had arrived earlier at the bottom of the cliff on the east side.
"How’s Andre’s injury?"
"He took a bullet in the right shoulder. Austin has already removed the bullet, and he’s currently suffering from some blood loss. What about you?"
After confirming that Tang Shu was unharmed, Yin Dong breathed a sigh of relief. With the help of the moonlight, his expression became somewhat complicated as he looked at her.
If before today he had thought that he and Tang Shu were of the same kind, then after tonight, that idea was completely shattered.
Who is this, if not some experienced actor with decent fighting skills and extremely delicate features? She’s obviously an ancient martial arts master!
And moreover, a master who lives incognito among the populace!
Not just anyone could take down several mercenaries barehanded. Could she actually be a descendant of some ancient martial arts lineage?
At this moment, Yin Dong’s thoughts began to drift uncontrollably, conjuring up various story scenarios.
Tang Shu was completely unaware that her team leader’s worldview and value system were being reconstructed. She responded indifferently, "Those people are still in the rainforest. They’re not in any mortal danger, but they won’t be waking up any time soon."
She had indeed fired a few shots and hadn’t endangered their lives, just temporarily disabled them. After all, they were in a society governed by laws, and even though they were not on her home turf, killing was not permitted.
Yin Dong looked puzzled with a strange expression, "No mortal danger?"
He had just seen several people fall; could that really be okay?
"Yeah, they were all hit with sleep drugs. The effects can last for two days. If no one comes to rescue us within that time, they will wake up on their own."
That afternoon, while everyone was devising plans, Tang Shu had deliberately adjusted the potency of the sleep drug. Although she didn’t intend to kill anyone, she couldn’t let those people regain their mobility too soon.
"So, the remaining mercenaries actually don’t know we’ve escaped?"
"By now, they should have realized it."
It was only a matter of time. Once the people in the tents had waited for their companions for too long, they would naturally start to search.
Understanding her meaning, Yin Dong said, "I’ve already erased some tracks earlier. It’ll take them some effort to find us. How many did you take down?"
"Seven. If I counted correctly, they should still have nine people left."
Tang Shu glanced at the two people below the cliff and after a moment of silence, said, "We shouldn’t move tonight; let’s rest up first."
They had a sick person here; moving anywhere would be difficult.
At three in the morning, the four of them resting beneath the cliff found a spot and began to take a break.
Little did they know, the Program Team quite a distance from the island, upon receiving the news, became worried and contacted domestic and international personnel as fast as possible.
After a few hours of readjustment, dawn had already broken for the four below the cliff.
Having been shot, Andre still had a deathly pale complexion. After Austin changed his dressing, he looked at Yin Dong with a puzzled expression.
"She’s gone hunting."
