Chapter 83 Preset Battlefield
On the fifteenth floor, the narrow corridor was dusky with moonlight shining faintly through the window. Only the corpses that were still bleeding on the floor could be seen. Some furniture and a huge amount of stuff made of paper blocked the corridor. They were all highly flammable.
The supply of electricity to the building had been interrupted, and the building was relying on its backup generators. Zhou Qingfeng smashed all the bulbs along the corridor. Then, he squatted at a corner and slowly took a few bottles of alcohol out of his bag. There were brandy, whiskey and vodka.
Whiskey was a famous spirit, brandy was known as a ‘burning liquor’, while vodka was just pure alcohol. Zhou Qingfeng got them from the cabinet in the previous suite.
“Hugo, is this going to work?” Mobutu asked beside him worriedly. His dark skin perfectly camouflaged him in the dark. “There’re so many of them, and what if we burn and kill ourselves?”
Zhou Qingfeng wore the night vision goggles on his head and checked his weapons for the final time. He turned around and told Mobutu, “Listen, I know you wanna escape from here and get as far as possible from those b*stards. It’s not just you; I want to do that, too.
“But I’m telling you, while you escaped this time, you wouldn’t be as lucky the next time. You won’t be able to live any longer even if you escaped. Even if no one troubled you, hunger and sickness will still kill you. Trust me; it’s going to be harder in the future.
“What we can do now is to try our best to fight with others to increase the chances of our survival. What I want you to do later is very simple: Help me when I’m in danger. I don’t expect that you act professionally, but I hope that you can try your best.”
Zhou Qingfeng gently pushed Mobutu away and said, “Stay behind. I’ll call you when I need you.”
Mobutu left without saying anything. Zhou Qingfeng could see his lowered shoulders with the night vision goggles. Obviously, Mobutu did not have high morale. In fact, Zhou Qingfeng himself was not any better. He was trying hard only because he was at the edge of the cliff.
The NTZ-49 had strengthened Zhou Qingfeng’s body’s overall physical fitness. Other than that, his intelligence quotient and a.n.a.lytical skill have also been slightly improved. However, there was nothing to help boost his courage. It could only depend on his self-encouragement.
“G.o.d, my ammos aren’t unlimited, so please let me shoot a little bit more accurately than usual later.” Zhou Qingfeng held his SCAR rifle and leaned against the wall.
The sheer number of the gangsters took gave them absolute advantage. After Zhou Qingfeng cleared the fifteenth floor, he realized he would not be able to clear the sixteenth as there were too many of them starting from that floor. They were very active, and the moment Zhou Qingfeng would show up, he would be shot.
To solve the problem, Zhou Qingfeng arranged a battlefield in the fifteenth floor to create a favorable position for him as he lied in wait for his enemies. However, only G.o.d knew whether or not the pa.s.sive way was going to work!
As Zhou Qingfeng waited patiently, the disgruntled gangsters started to clear the floors. As the sound of footsteps came from the direction of the fire escape stairs, he held his rifle tightly in his hands. It seemed like there was a ma.s.sive amount of enemies!
A banging sound rose and the fire exit door was kicked open by a gangster. One of them got pushed by Yakov as they came in. That unlucky guy in front fell on the floor and started rolling. As he rolled on floor, he fired at everything around him.
Dhak dhak dhak…! The unlucky gangster finished half of the magazine, then leaned on the wall. He breathed heavily and kept swallowing his saliva. The reason he so nervous was because he saw dozens of dead bodies on the way from the tenth floor.
Gangsters were not naturally brave. They were only arrogant when they have a lot of people with them and when they were at an advantage. They might be even more timid than ordinary people during normal days.
However, the gangsters were really afraid of Zhou Qingfeng’s way of killing. After all, they only have one life and it was impossible not to appreciate it.
“How’s it going out there?” Yakov hid behind the fire exit door as he yelled.
The unlucky guy in front breathed heavily and said, “I think—I think nothing’s here.”
Yakov pushed his men one after another into the fifteenth floor. As their numbers increased to twenty, they felt a bit relieved, but only by a little bit.
There were four or five corridors on the fifteenth floor and they were all very quiet. With an M4A1 carbine in his hand, Yakov watched from behind and commanded his men to search the floor. “Find him, otherwise we’re gonna be in real trouble!”
Because Korgan robbed a police station branch in Queens, he could equip his men with M4A1. They aimed their M4A1 carbines into the corridors at the fifteenth floor.
“Spread out, idiots. That brat’s equipped with a flash grenade. You wanna taste it again?” Yakov was also using the police night vision goggles while observing the movements in the corridors. Now that the police had disappeared, the use of their equipment had become very common.
The gangsters really wanted to spread out, yet as the team dispersed, the people in front slowed down. As they slowed down, the people in the back naturally got closer to the front. As a result, they got stuck together.
“Wow….” One of the gangsters at the front exclaimed.
At the back, Yakov asked angrily, “What happened?”
“There… there’s a corpse.” The gangster in the lead came across a pile of furniture set up by Zhou Qingfeng and saw a dead body.
“Why are you afraid of corpses? Go on!” Yakov yelled at him.
At that moment, Zhou Qingfeng heard Yakov and stood up immediately. He grabbed a flash grenade, pulled the pin, then threw it out.
The flash grenade attracted the attention of the gangsters and the two in front started to fire in the direction it came from. The gangsters behind them had panicked and messed up. Only Yakov saw what happened through the night vision goggles. He yelled at them, “Get down, idiots!”
A dazzling light shone through the dark after the explosion. Accompanied by a loud noise, the intensity of eight million candles continued for a few seconds. People could be blinded temporarily with such an intensity. Especially in the dark, it was extremely effective.
That was the benefit of a preset battlefield. Zhou Qingfeng was the one who could choose the moment to attack. As the flash grenade exploded, even though Yakov was very far away, he would not be able to fight as his night vision goggles temporarily failed to work due to the strong light. He was not affected by the flash grenade, but he could not see as well.
Zhou Qingfeng covered his night vision goggles before the flash grenade exploded to get a few seconds of advantage. As soon as the light disappeared, the gangsters in the corridor started to scream. Zhou Qingfeng appeared around a corner, steadying his rifle with his knee on the floor. He aimed at the targets and started shooting accurately one after another.
Bang!
A gangster was shot on his chest. A normal bullet-proof police uniform could not stop the penetration of bullets. The gangster turned and fell on the floor.
Bang!
Another gangster was shot, but the ceramic plates on his body armor saved his life. However, the impact of the bullet sent him flying.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of gunshots went on as the bullets were fired one by one. The panicked gangsters started to shoot randomly, yet they could not defend themselves from Zhou Qingfeng’s accurate and ruthless shooting. They were shot and killed one by one.
Meanwhile, hidden at the back, Yakov cursed at his useless men. He thought that if only they had spread out, the situation would have not been this bad. “Ivan, he’s on the fifteenth floor. I need backup, hurry up!”
