Chapter 321: Chapter 19 Command and Breaking out of Encirclement

Arthur’s bullets penetrated the water, bringing up a stream of air bubbles, but they had lost their killing power long ago. Moreover, even on land, the hard scales of the Terror Crocodile could block the onslaught of a hundred bullets.

Swoosh, the Terror Crocodile surged out of the lake, lunging at the wooden raft. Anthony and Arthur clumsily avoided it, but unfortunately, the raft was too narrow and due to the violent shaking, they almost fell overboard.

Tang Zheng had been aiming his gun all along. As soon as the crocodile’s figure appeared in his ACOG sight, he fired. In the dim rainforest, the bullets, with the red glow of burnt gunpowder, whizzed across the lake surface and struck the creature, but unfortunately, it had no effect.

"Hold on a bit longer." Miranda was also rowing, wishing Arthur could hold on a bit longer to buy time. However, three seconds later, their raft was shattered by another Terror Crocodile, and they fell into the lake.

With no room for rescue, the remnants of a leg quickly floated to the surface, only to be swallowed by a Terror Crocodile in the blink of an eye. The croc then submersed its head just under the water surface, looking like a piece of dead wood, and swam towards Miranda’s raft at a fast pace.

The rookies on the raft were alarmed and started screaming, seemingly trying to dissipate their fear. Some were looking for their guns, while others were rowing. Only Miranda remained calm, trying to persuade them to cool down.

"Don’t panic, don’t shoot, everyone row as hard as you can." Miranda’s judgment was accurate. Since the crocodile could not be killed, it was best to get away from the lake as quickly as possible. She then started shouting towards the shore, "Help us!"

Danny’s MG3 was aimed at the lake, waiting for the moment the Terror Crocodile would leap out. David and Maggie were doing the same, though their M4A1’s were doing little good, but still better than Leonard, who didn’t even pretend to be ready.

The rafters from Mars’s boat were gradually climbing onto the shore one after the other; they did not dare to stay. Let alone counterattacking to help, they just ran inwards from the shore, fearing the crocodiles would catch up. Natalie was no exception.

The typically silent and aloof Robert was finally showing his chops. He opened his backpack, pulled out a firearm brimming with a sense of future technology, then lay on the ground, opened the rifle bracket, and aimed at the lake.

Bang, the Terror Crocodile had just surged out of the lake when Robert fired. No muzzle flame was visible, but a bullet, looking like a red meteor, instantly crossed the lake, and landed on the crocodile, instantly dissolving it into nothing. The blood and broken flesh fell into the lake.

Carla, Robert pulled the bolt on his gun, and with a crisp metallic sound, a black shell, emanating heat, was thrown out and fell on the ground. In an instant, the moisture in the damp soil evaporated into white steam.

Bang, the second Terror Crocodile had just leapt out and was once again blown apart. Flesh and blood splattered on the raft like a downpour, staining Miranda and the others all over.

"Gauss Sniper Rifle Black Star Version, S-grade artifact, worth eight thousand points, six Golden Seeds, can use five types of specialized electromagnetic bullets, different bullets provide different power."

Not only Tang Zheng, but the rookies were also looking at the firearm full of mechanical texture and coated with a black layer in Robert’s hand. Its unique and sturdy shape was hard to ignore at first glance.

"This is the least powerful bullet of the Gauss Sniper Rifle, but even one shot could blow up a tank." Seeing this scene, Danny proudly boasted to everyone, "Robert’s an active-duty Ranger Master Sergeant, a seasoned sniper. He already has ten thousand points. If it weren’t for getting this Gauss Sniper Rifle, he could have left the Trojan Horse Game by now."

"Gun nerd." Lu Fan muttered. As Chris, who was at the back, climbed onto the shore and exerted all his strength to throw a Concussion Grenade, bang, a thick water column exploded. Water droplets fell like rain on the shore.

The rookies were startled, but Robert remained undeterred, monitoring the lake through an infrared high-magnification sight. Just when everyone thought the danger had passed, he suddenly shouted.

"Sixty meters away, there’s a group of Terror Crocodiles, at least a hundred."

Survivors like Tang Zheng, who had good vision, had already seen those shadows under the lake, while Miranda was still nearly ten meters away from the shore.

Stevenson and his crew were shocked and backed away from the shore in panic again.

"What do we do now?" Rolin didn’t leave, she looked at Leonard. She was all soaked, her office lady outfit was clinging to her body, revealing many holes in her silk stockings. She looked miserable, but she was still calm, living up to her strong-willed reputation.

As she asked this question, she was still checking her water-logged M4A1 with familiar movements.

"Save them." Leonard took out a few grenades and threw them one by one behind Miranda, "Tang, aren’t you going to help?"

Before Tang Zheng could answer, the newbies on the lake started screaming again as the Terror Crocodiles attacked and no longer hid. They shot up from the water, hundreds of them jam-packed, the view was extremely terrifying.

David also threw a grenade. At least the shrapnel could scrape some scales and meat off the crocs. While it didn’t inflict serious injuries, it could hinder their attack.

Bang, bang, Robert fired repeatedly. Each shot exploded a group of Terror Crocodiles, wounding two or three. Saving people was secondary to him. He was more interested in scoring.

Tang Zheng also took out his Thunderstorm rifle, set it to automatic, and began sweeping a barrage of bullets at those crocs chasing after the raft.
