C2177 Arwen Was Injured
Bernard had been watching Alvin's training because of the distance and angle. He had not been able to find the people outside the barbed wire ahead of time. However... Alvin's unusual behavior had alerted him. He knew that Alvin was not only talented in shooting and piloting spaceships. He was excellent in both observation and intuition.
Therefore, when Bernard saw Alvin's face, he knew that he might have discovered something. That was why he kept staring at Alvin. Therefore, the moment Dawn and the others appeared, he also noticed them.
Alvin could not wear a gun at any time. However, to Bernard... This wasn't a big problem. And... In fact, there was always a pistol on Bernard's body. This was a habit he had developed over the years, and this habit... Today, he had saved Alvin's life.
"He's here!" A member of Dawn's team pointed at Bernard and said.
"Leave him for now." Dawn also looked at Bernard and said, "Leave that target for now!"
In the distance, the entire camp had woken up from the dead silence because of the whistle and Bernard's gunshots. More and more soldiers began to rush here.
Therefore, Dawn knew that they did not have much time left. Originally, they wanted to quietly take Alvin down, but it had become impossible. They might as well not hide anything anymore. As long as they could capture Alvin... Then, even if it was the people in the camp who were alarmed... They did not care.
Hearing Dawn's orders, the people under his command... At this moment, they all took out their guns and pointed them at Alvin. Previously, although they had carried guns with them, they were afraid of alarming the people in the camp. Therefore, they did not shoot. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would not shoot. And now, it was the time they thought it was the last resort. At this time, if they didn't shoot, Alvin would probably run away.
However, they still didn't know much about Alvin. Alvin grew up eating rice from hundreds of families. Later on, he even became a beggar for a period of time. He had been chased and beaten up before, so he had a lot of experience escaping. Not only was he fast, but when he was running... He also knew how to move around, which led to Dawn and the others shooting at him. It did not have much of an effect.
"Is this guy's loach? Why is he so crafty?" A member of Dawn's team said.
Indeed, their marksmanship was not bad. Furthermore, they were not too far away from Alvin. Therefore, they were very confident that they could hit Alvin. However, the result was that so many bullets were shot out. Alvin was still running around in front of them.
One should know that the people in the camp had already been alerted and were running towards them. If they did not hurry, they would not have a chance.
Dawn didn't say anything. He was chasing after Alvin. He calmly fired his gun at the same time. At this time, Dawn was calm and collected. It worked. Even though they still hadn't hit Alvin, however, Dawn wasn't as impatient as the other team members. He continued to shoot in an orderly manner. His eyes were also staring at Alvin's back.
This was also the reason why the higher-ups arranged for Dawn to be the temporary commander. Everyone's strength wasn't bad, they were all on par with each other. Under such circumstances, one's mentality seemed to be very important. Obviously, Dawn had the advantage in this aspect.
"Pa!"
Another gunshot was heard. Another bullet was shot out by Dawn. The difference from before was... When the bullet flew out... ... Dawn instinctively felt that his bullet would not return empty handed like before. He felt that this bullet of his could hit Alvin.
As expected, after the bullet flew out, Alvin suddenly staggered in front of him. He almost fell to the ground, but he did not fall. His running speed was obviously much slower, and his movements weren't as agile as before.
He hit it!
Including Dawn, the ten-man team members saw Alvin's situation. They knew he had been hit, and the place where the bullet hit should be his left leg. It could be seen that Alvin's left leg was obviously not as agile as before.
While secretly admiring Dawn, the other team members... They stopped complaining and hurriedly prepared to shoot at Alvin. They didn't want to kill Alvin. If that happened, they wouldn't be able to find the Spatiotemporal Secret Key. Alvin's life wasn't important. It didn't matter whether he died or not. What they wanted was the gem.
Therefore, before they obtained the gemstone, they couldn't let Alvin die. Therefore, the rest of them, like Dawn, had set their sights on Alvin's legs.
Alvin's movement was much slower than before. In addition, the people from Flaming Wind Kingdom all had good spear skills. So, in the blink of an eye, his legs were hit again.
Alvin, who had been shot three times in a row, was now completely lying on the ground. There was no way for him to escape anymore. The only thing he could do was to constantly pray that Bernard could save him while wailing.
Dawn and the others saw that Alvin had already fallen to the ground and did not run anymore. They did not shoot anymore. Instead, they ran towards Alvin, wanting to capture him alive.
Bernard did not give up shooting during this period of time. His shooting skills were not low. During this period of time... He had once again injured a person on Dawn's side. However... Before Dawn and the others came, Angus had reminded them again and again. He wanted them to seize that gem at all costs. Therefore, even if someone was injured by the spear... Dawn and the others had no intention of giving up. In fact... They didn't even put their attention on Bernard. Instead, they kept shooting at Alvin. Their shooting also had an effect. Alvin had already been knocked down to the ground.
Bernard could also see that these people seemed to be targeting Alvin. They had to catch Alvin. Therefore, after discovering this, while Bernard was shooting at Dawn and the others, he was also moving towards Alvin.
Both of them had the same target, and were moving towards Alvin. However, it was obvious that Dawn and the others were closer to Alvin. Regarding this, Dawn and the others heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. It seemed like there were some waves in this mission. However, it was still possible to complete it.
Once they completed this mission, their future prospects would be limitless.
"Crack crack crack!"
However, Dawn and the others were fantasizing about their wonderful lives in the future. As they moved quickly towards Alvin, suddenly, there was an intense sound of gunfire. The bullets that flew out of the guns were aimed at them!
Dawn and the others looked up and saw that they were shooting at Alvin. While they were chasing, the soldiers in the camp had reacted. They did not reorganize themselves before rushing over together. Instead, there were more than a dozen teams. They ran over first. At this time, although they did not run to Dawn and the others, however, they had already pulled the distance between the two parties into the shooting range.2
"What kind of team is this? Why is their reaction so fast?" Dawn and the others thought as they dodged the bullets.
Although they had alerted the people in the camp earlier, but... When Dawn and the others thought about it, the soldiers in the camp... It would take some time for them to get here from the sound of gunshots. It was enough time for them to take Alvin away. As long as they took Alvin away, they were confident that they could avoid being tracked by these people.
However, they had miscalculated the reaction speed of the soldiers in the camp. The reaction speed of these people was obviously much faster than they had expected. The time used to rush here was also much less than they had expected.
Dawn and the others were like the king of soldiers in their respective troops. So... They quickly understood that the soldiers in this camp... They were obviously not ordinary soldiers. Ordinary soldiers would not be able to react so quickly. Then, this team could not be an ordinary team either.
However, it was already too late to think about this now. More than ten people rushed out of the camp and ran over quickly. They kept shooting at them. They even felt like they were being pressed down so hard that they could not raise their heads.
"Head, what should we do?" One of the team members asked.
Right now, they were in a dilemma, and Alvin wasn't far from them. They could also catch Alvin before those people arrived. However, if they did that, the losses on their side wouldn't be small. In fact, it wasn't impossible for more than half of them to die.
Furthermore, they wanted to take Alvin away, not kill him. Therefore, it was equivalent to having an extra burden. They wanted to take Alvin away from this place. Obviously, their speed wouldn't be fast enough. If that was the case... They would soon be surrounded by the people who came from behind. At that time, it would be very difficult for them to get out. Even if they had Alvin as their hostage, they had no confidence. To be able to leave completely, the soldiers in this camp were not ordinary. It was very likely that there were some Sharpshooters around.
If they wanted to give up on Alvin, it would not be too late for them to retreat now. Because they were very close to the barbed wire, it was very easy for them to rush out. However, it seemed like they were about to catch Alvin. They were only about ten meters away from each other. They were unwilling to give up just like that.
Dawn quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart. Then... The conclusion he came to was that once they continued forward... They had no confidence in leaving this place alive, even though... Previously, Angus had repeatedly told them that he would pay any price to obtain the gemstones. They weren't afraid of being sacrificed, but if they were all dead... Then the mission would be meaningless, and they would surely fail.
