Chapter 1645 - 1645
Liu Zhizhong felt a bit upset, but he had to continue the mission, flying towards the new coordinates despite the heavy rain.
After flying for a while, something felt off.
The subtropical rainforest below felt desolate and uninhabited.
The mountains grew larger, and the river below surged more violently. It seemed like the water level upstream had risen.
As he approached the coordinates, under the intense light, he couldn't see any sign of the warlord leader's private courtyard!
The dense tropical rainforest, the raging river, the torrential rain covering the sky, the desolate landscape—where was the courtyard?
Liu Zhizhong began to doubt whether he had entered the wrong coordinates.
He double-checked the new coordinates he received; there was no mistake!
What the hell is happening?
He thought for a moment and quickly activated the secret channel, trying to contact the Tiandu side.
But...
He couldn't get through; the call failed.
"What the hell is going on?"
Liu Zhizhong had a sinking feeling something was wrong.
Using the helicopter's spotlight, he gazed at the unfamiliar subtropical rainforest below, less than a hundred meters away, and felt increasingly uneasy.
No signs of human habitation, no target courtyard, let alone any super scam boss.
"Could it be... the local forces associated with the scam group suddenly changed their minds? Not going to make the exchange? Are they deliberately messing with Tiandu? Messing with me?"
Liu Zhizhong thought it over carefully and decided to contact the border about 200 kilometers away, where the Huayang Public Security Bureau chief was personally leading a team. He would reach out to him to inquire about the situation!
Meanwhile, Liu Zhizhong prepared to withdraw, and the helicopter began to circle for a turnaround.
Just as he was about to make the call, suddenly there was a loud bang from afar in the rainforest, like a missile being launched.
Liu Zhizhong heard it clearly, looked towards the sound, and was instantly stunned!
Damn!
He saw a rocket, trailing a long exhaust, cutting through the downpour from the distant horizon, heading straight for him.
Shock pushed Liu Zhizhong to speed up frantically, the helicopter swiftly climbing, trying to evade the danger.
At that moment, it was purely an instinctive survival reaction.
In less than two seconds, the helicopter had climbed nearly thirty meters and evasively circled over fifty meters away.
"Boom~~~~"
A thunderous explosion sounded as the rocket flew through the previous airspace, exploding three hundred meters away in the air.
The shockwave wasn't very strong.
But cold sweat broke out on Liu Zhizhong's forehead.
He seemed to realize something.
There was no actual pickup point!
No target person to receive!
Just rockets!
The rocket was clearly targeted at his helicopter!
This was... a trap!
Someone wanted his life!
Someone wanted his life!
While his mind raced, suddenly two more loud explosions sounded, likely from the rain where the rainforest met the sky. Two rockets flared towards him, trailing exhaust through the thick rain.
Liu Zhizhong was utterly shocked; as soon as he heard the explosions, he started to move—flee!
Survive if you can!
The helicopter pushed to its maximum power, frantically climbing, spinning, and continually changing trajectory.
At the same time, his intense survival instincts drove him to maneuver the helicopter toward the back of a relatively tall mountain nearby, the only way to evade the enemy's targeting sight...
