Chapter 57: Lethal Reaction
The shot snapped Gru back to his senses; he swiftly crawled a few meters on the ground to reach the blind spot in the Pickup’s line of fire, then quickly stood up, raised his gun, and pulled the trigger, hoping to take care of the person inside the vehicle in time to rescue Tessa.
At this moment, Mountain Eagle also sensed something was off. As the armed men approached within about ten meters, he unbuckled his seatbelt and forcefully kicked the car door open before rolling out...
The moment Mountain Eagle hit the ground, he heard gunshots and felt his body shake twice; he knew he must have been shot...
But with adrenaline surging through him, Mountain Eagle felt no pain. He sprang up from the ground like a compressed spring, his CZ75 firing away...
"Bang bang bang..."
The successive gunshots made the three approaching gunmen instinctively duck for cover...
At this moment, Mountain Eagle, whose gun was now empty, let out a roar like a tiger, his legs powering forward in a charge...
As he came within about 3 meters of the closest enemy, Mountain Eagle suddenly dropped his body down, before they could re-aim at him...
At this point, Mountain Eagle’s legs sprung up like they had springs installed, executing a standard wrestling kneel to close in on a gunman’s midsection...
Then, as the man attempted to lower his gun, Mountain Eagle powerfully twisted his body with a forceful push from his legs, spinning 360 degrees to end up behind him, grabbing his waist...
At this moment, Mountain Eagle effectively lined up the three gunmen in a straight line, blocking the other two gunmen’s line of fire.
