Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1447
Chapter 1447 Confusion
With just a glance, Meng Chao could tell that this team of “elite Turan warriors” was in a well-organized formation and stood in a reasonable position. Even on the rugged mountain road, where mud and rocks could pour down at any time, they were still highly vigilant. They could form extremely powerful crossfire in all directions at a moment’s notice.
Moreover, when the lightning disappeared and the land returned to darkness, they were like shadows that completely merged into the darkness, disappearing without a trace.
Even Meng Chao, a Deity Realm expert, who was hundreds of meters away, could not hear their breathing, heartbeat, and the sound of their internal organs squirming.
Among the five big clans of Picturesque Orchid Lake, the Dark Moon Clan came from a bloodline of fierce reptilian beasts. They had quite a number of experts who were skilled in stealth, assassination, and poison. However, apart from the scales of those in the Dark Moon Clan, these fellows in front of Meng Chao also carried a large number of characteristics of Gold Clan and Blood Hoof Clan members. Whether it was the wolves and tigers of the Gold clan or the Minotaurs and wild boars of the Blood Hoof Clan, Meng Chao knew that they did not like to lurk.
“Most of Picturesque Orchid Lake’s elites should be gathered at the northern front in Red-gold City’s vicinity, preparing to launch a war against the Holy Light faction.
“There are no main forces or elites at the southern border at all!
“How can such an elite team of special forces sneak into the crystal mines of the people of Dragon City under the cover of drones?”
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes.
He sensed a hint of danger.
He glanced at the right rear of the “elite Turan warriors.”
It was a dark hill.
It seemed like he could not scan anything.
But when Meng Chao closed his eyes, he could picture a blurry figure and a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes in his mind.
“Snipers.”
Meng Chao said to himself in his heart, “Apart from the drones, this group of people has deployed at least one or two snipers. When the large group of people advanced, the snipers were hiding in the depths of the mud without moving. Even if someone discovered the large group and wanted to go forward to investigate or attack, the snipers could easily solve the ‘problem’ from the rear.”
Here came the problem.
Did the Turan orcs have the concept of snipers? Even the strongest archer in Picturesque Orchid Lake, the Centaur race, seemed to be more adept and liked the feeling of having thousands of arrows fired at the same time, rather than secretly shooting arrows in the dark, right?
Thinking of this, Meng Chao’s curiosity toward these uninvited guests reached its peak.
Since he had already discovered the existence of drones and snipers. Of course, he would not be easily discovered by the other party.
Taking a deep breath, Meng Chao suppressed his breathing, heartbeat, and blood flow to their limits.
His body temperature was also adjusted to the same level as the torrential rain, mountain torrents, and mud around him.
He was like a mudslide with life, mixed in with the mud that washed down from the mountain ridge, and stealthily moved towards the uninvited guests. The lightning that could light up the world never appeared again. However, when he ventured within fifty meters of the other party, even if there was no light, Meng Chao could accurately capture the other party’s outline and movements by scanning his vitality magnetic field. This place was already very close to the Universe Corporation’s crystal mine.
There were searchlights sweeping in front from time to time.
In order to defend against the invasion of monsters and natives from the Other World, it was possible that a lot of security measures had been deployed at the periphery of the mine.
Even though these security measures were mostly destroyed by the torrential rain and mountain torrents.
The uninvited guests were still very cautious.
From time to time, they would stop and make arrangements for their surroundings.
“What are they doing?”
Meng Chao saw that the uninvited gs seemed to have taken something out of their pockets and scattered it into the mud around them.
They even found a few sharp rocks and squeezed some things that looked like blood onto them.
Similar actions would be repeated every ten to twenty meters.
As they gradually left, Meng Chao sneakily went to the place where they had passed by and found the things they had left behind.
It was some hair, half a broken nail, and a few drops of stinky blood.
Meng Chao twirled the hair on his fingertip and rubbed it gently.
He then placed the broken nail on his palm and studied it carefully.
He analyzed it from the smell emitted by the hair and the shape of the nail.
They were all genuine and had fallen from the bodies of the Turan Orcs.
Of course, the owners of these hair and nails were not peerless experts.
They were just rat people.
However, Meng Chao doubted that the ordinary citizens of Dragon City would be able to tell the difference between elite Turan warriors and ordinary rat people.
“These guys intentionally scattered a lot of hair, skin, nails, and blood from the Turan orcs on their trajectories.”
Looking at the origins of the uninvited guests, Meng Chao imagined that he did not catch these guys on the spot, but only found the “clues” Ithat they had deliberately left behind.
So, through the “evidence”, it was not difficult to infer what had happened on this dark and stormy night of the month. It was also possible to outline the identity of the “true murderer”-hideous, ghostly, unreasonable, the natives of the Other World who would not rest until they were dead
‘We can’t wait any longer.’
Although Meng Chao could always lurk by these uninvited guests, closely watch their every move, until they complete their plot, there were countless innocent guards and workers in the brightly-lit crystal mine ahead of them.
Judging from the uninvited guests’ nondescript dressing and their ill-intentioned behavior, it did not matter what they were doing in the crystal mine on this “night of murder in the dark of the moon, high wind and high fire.”
They were definitely not there to hold a party with the people of Dragon City on Picturesque Orchid Lake’s behalf.
Meng Chao smelled the strong odor of blood.
He could already imagine what would happen after these people sneaked into the crystal mine.
He had to stop them.
With Meng Chao’s realm, if he went all out, it was not impossible to kill at least one-third of the uninvited guests and capture one or two survivors.
But he was not confident that he could do it without being caught by the drone overhead.
Moreover, these uninvited guests were only at the execution level, so they might not know too many secrets.
If there was a large organization with a tight structure behind them. If he alarmed them, it would make the organization even more vigilant, making things even more troublesome.
Therefore, the key was how to hide his strength, or at least part of it, and capture a living person without making a sound.
Within three to five minutes of interrogating a live person, he would destabilize the other party, or at least disrupt the other party’s retreat, forcing them to leave more evidence, real evidence.
Meng Chao closed his eyes and once again analyzed the positions of the uninvited guests, the flight paths of the few drones above his head, and the shooting range of the sniper who had been lurking in the mud, staring coldly and sealing off the entire valley.
He only used half a second to reject the idea of attacking the sniper.
This sniper was most likely the strongest among the uninvited guests.
Moreover, his ambush position was very good. It happened to be in a col halfway up the mountain. The shooting range was clear, and there were mountain rocks covering all four sides. It was just enough for him to have no worries and seal off most of the valley.
No matter which direction he approached from, it would be difficult to avoid the detection of him and the drones. Just from the choice of sniper position, one could see the sniper’s strength.
And such a well-trained sniper would usually not act alone.
There must be an observer who was as strong as him or behind him, at most a hair’s breadth away from him.
Even if Meng Chao could really finish off the sniper in a breath’s time, find the observer, and cut off their communication with their companions in time.
However, the snipers and the observers were most likely responsible for sending more observation information to the troops.
If the snipers did not communicate with their companions within twenty seconds, or at most one to two minutes, their companions would certainly be suspicious.
“Since I can’t choose the snipers…” Meng Chao mumbled to himself and stabbed his hands into the mud.
The spirit energy spurting out of his palms swam toward the ridge where the uninvited guests were passing like two giant pythons that were lurking underground.
Suddenly, the “giant pythons” seemed to have woken up from their long hibernation. They writhed violently inside the ridge, destroying the already brittle structure of the rock. Large pieces of broken rock were even engulfed by the mud, they turned into a surging mudslide and poured down toward the uninvited guests.
The uninvited guests were caught off guard.
Even the most disciplined formation was thrown into chaos for a moment.
Although the debris flow could not do anything to these well-trained experts, the team was still distracted.
The snipers and the observers’ attention was temporarily attracted by the rumbling that was rolling toward them.
They were more worried that the movement of the debris flow would trigger a chain reaction in the crystal mine.
They did not dare to release their spirit energy, crush the rocks, and block the mud.
They could only spread out in all directions to avoid the impact of the debris flow.
Meng Chao waited patiently in the darkness. His target was not at the end of the team.
From the perspective of human nature, once they recovered from the chaos, the other party would certainly pay attention to the end of the team first to see if they had lost any of their men.
Besides, the end of the team was often very strong, and they were too close to the snipers and observers.
Meng Chao’s eyes were firmly fixed on the few uninvited gs at the front and middle section of the team who acted as the vanguard. The few fellows closest to the crystal mine needed to hide in the sudden debris flow.
Their attention was the most distracted, and their vigilance was the lowest.
Meng Chao did not move.
He even closed his eyes.
However, the vitality magnetic field kept spreading out, turning every ripple in the debris flow into an extension of his will.
Interfered by his spirit energy, the debris flow seemed to have a life of its own as it rushed toward the few spearmen at the front and separated them in an instant.
In order to avoid being swallowed by the debris flow without making too much noise, the few spearmen had no choice but to concentrate and move around. They did not notice that they were getting farther and farther away from the main forces.
Behind them, a black shadow slowly opened its eyes.
