Chapter 1316: Chapter 1321 I Come to Save You

Three people rushed out of Satan’s side, and then, even the Steel Holy Mother couldn’t hold them back. Not just the Steel Holy Mother, but even with over a hundred people from ISIS around, they couldn’t completely take out Satan’s few men.

Even if they could be pushed back, Satan came out with the determination to pave the way with flesh and blood, so how could they possibly be forced back.

This battle was destined to be a mutual depletion until one side was completely wiped out, yet now, it wasn’t Satan who was being depleted.

Gong Yang was too formidable. When a person is called a god, be it a gun god or any other god, when they are deified, they have certainly transcended the realm of what ordinary people can achieve or even understand.

Satan’s people were continuing to rush out; they struggled, but they truly established a foothold.

Especially when Satan’s machine gunner came out, it seemed their situation was precarious, but they stood their ground firmly.

"Don’t detonate! Quickly send someone in to rescue Baghdadi; this is an opportunity!"

Taking advantage of the fierce fighting upfront, let the people of the Steel Holy Mother seize the opportunity to rescue Baghdadi.

Anton didn’t want to rescue Baghdadi, but the problem was that given Satan’s momentum, they truly might break through. Although only a few uninjured people might escape, if Gong Yang wanted to run, he could indeed break out even if it meant leaving everyone else behind.

No matter what Gong Yang planned, just don’t let Viper get impulsive and really set off the bomb.

Viper turned a deaf ear; he just watched the fierce battle. Anton rushed to Viper’s side, grabbed Viper by the collar, and yelled, "Send people to rescue Baghdadi; this is the best opportunity!"

Viper suddenly turned around and shouted to those nearby, "Mortars! Rocket launchers, take them out! Reserves, move in!"

At that moment, Anton suddenly noticed someone had launched a drone.

Why launch a drone?

Drones have too many uses, but the most common use is reconnaissance.

A current flashed through Anton’s mind.

Satan wasn’t trying to break through, and Gong Yang wasn’t trying to flee; they were scouting. They didn’t intend to escape.

Scouting for what? Even using common sense, it was clear they were scouting for the jammer’s position. But when the drone couldn’t be remotely controlled or send back footage, how were they scouting?

Anton was puzzled, but Viper hadn’t noticed someone launching the drone because he turned his head at that moment, so Anton didn’t plan to alert him.

The drone was launched; Gong Yang and his team didn’t advance but instead set up a defensive position to cover the drone operator.

"Hold them off; we must not let them escape!"

Viper shouted at the top of his lungs; the only ones able to block Satan now were the ISIS soldiers. Viper was very worried about whether they could complete what was not a very challenging task.

As each second passed, Viper, looking back, finally noticed Satan’s abnormality.

"Why aren’t they continuing?"

After asking with much confusion, Viper abruptly realized something and then said very surprisedly, "They want to sabotage the electronic interference, but do they think they can do it?"

At this point, ISIS’s mortars finally fired; the shells began to fall down, but the much faster rocket launchers could only fire a few, and the rockets that did launch posed almost no threat and failed to cause Satan any effective damage.

Because Gong Yang was too unbeatable, he almost single-handedly shot all the rocket launcher gunners.

Actually, Anton was also very curious; he knew what Satan might be trying to do, but he doubted whether Satan could succeed.

Watching the drone take off straight and then fly in a certain direction, Satan might have located the general position of the electronic jammer, so they just needed to confirm if it was indeed the jammer, but even if they confirmed, what then?

The drone quickly returned, but the mortar shells by then had already given Satan a lot of trouble.

They couldn’t hold on; this was Anton’s judgment, and indeed Satan’s men began to fall one by one.

At this time, after inspecting the drone, Anton was surprised to find someone setting up a mortar tube.

Just one mortar tube, then he loaded a shell with no time or space to adjust, and the mortar shell was fired.

Viper suddenly froze, then shouted, "Take him out..."

The second mortar shell was fired, followed by the third.

After three mortar shells, Anton suddenly saw Viper’s face full of shock.

Viper screamed, "Charge in, rescue Baghdadi! Rescue Baghdadi!"

Viper’s orders couldn’t be heard by the Steel Holy Mother’s people because all communications had been jammed, which undoubtedly caused significant issues for the Steel Holy Mother’s command, but now, Viper was communicating via radio.

This meant that the electronic interference had been neutralized with three mortar shells.

Although the gunner had already fallen, he fired three shells and disrupted the electronic interference.

It turned out that Satan not only had sharpshooters, they also had artillery experts.

Viper wasn’t desperate; he wasn’t afraid of Satan escaping because he deemed it impossible. His only worry was missing the final chance.

Satan began retreating to the great hall; they had achieved their goal, dragging the wounded back swiftly.

Viper didn’t despair because as long as Satan had hope, they wouldn’t kill Baghdadi, so it was up to the final rescue operation to see if it would succeed.

Satan retreated, but the Steel Madonna’s forces followed closely behind, immediately launching an attack.

The Steel Madonna’s forces were dwindling, and time was running out for them.

"Send the bombers in! Get them in there!"

Viper was already frantic. Once again, ISIS members served as cannon fodder, with everyone rushing towards the great hall.

But soon, Viper stopped shouting as the radio was interrupted once more.

Viper slammed the ground in frustration, then yelled at those around him: "Now stop the electronic interference! Stop it! It’s useless now, turn off that damn interference!"

ISIS members rushed in, followed by the Steel Madonna’s troops, one after another, into the great hall.

Anton couldn’t know what was happening inside, nor could Viper; they only knew that fierce combat and dull explosions ensued. But the interrupted communications at that moment caused great interference to Viper.

Viper tensely watched the great hall, his hands trembling slightly.

The battle continued, but the great hall finally quieted down.

If they succeeded, the last of the Steel Madonna’s men should have emerged. Even if they failed, someone should have come out to report whether they had succeeded or failed, at the very least, to tell Viper not to detonate.

Viper remained motionless. After waiting quietly for two minutes, he finally closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and then looked at the detonator with despair.

Anton smiled.

Satan was remarkable, Gong Yang was remarkable, but in the end, it was still up to Anton to save the miraculous Satan.

A mercenary on stage, a spy behind the scenes—that’s the difference.

Viper had given up hope; he could of course take a mutual destruction move, but Anton couldn’t let him do that.

Anton unknowingly got close to Viper’s side. Although there were several people nearby, they were all watching the great hall.

The ISIS members were ultimately of low quality, not knowing what to do at that moment.

Anton smiled without greeting or saying anything; rattling off before making a move to then die from excessive chatter was the style of movie villains; he wouldn’t do that.

Viper crouched down, about to press the detonator to bury Satan with the corpses inside, but at that moment, a thin steel spike appeared in Anton’s hand.

A steel spike about twenty-five centimeters long, sharp and hard, with a very thin weak point in the middle—it could be inserted straight in without a problem, but would break if slightly bent.

Before Viper could press the detonator, Anton stabbed the steel spike into Viper’s ear from his side, driving it from ear canal into the central brainstem, instantly fatal, silent and without a trace.

With a casual snap, Anton broke the steel spike, leaving most of it inside Viper’s brain. Unless someone carefully examined Viper’s ear canal, nothing would appear amiss from the outside.

Anton nudged the detonator aside with his foot, then shouted: "Viper, Viper, what’s wrong with you!"

When several ISIS members looked over, Viper was collapsing, and Anton caught him with one hand, yelling: "Come help, he’s passed out!"

Someone glanced at the detonator on the ground. Anton shouted angrily: "Help me hold him up, check what’s wrong with him!"

Anton didn’t appear to be a killer, especially since Viper had no bloodstains, no gunshot wounds, no knife wounds, no signs of injury at all.

Someone ran over to help Anton hold up Viper, while another murmured: "Should we detonate it..."

Anton shouted angrily: "Are you crazy? The blast is so powerful we’d die too!"

The others exchanged looks. Anton spoke solemnly: "The enemy is inside, can they escape? Without considering saving Baghdadi, are you worried about how to deal with them?"

One person crouched down to check on Viper, touched his pulse, and then exclaimed in shock: "He’s, he’s dead..."

Anton exhaled, reluctantly saying: "A stroke? Or a heart attack? Well, I wouldn’t handle this blow either, understandable. Alright everyone, we need to leave, take his body, hurry up, let’s go, don’t detonate it unless you want to go down with him."

Then someone cautiously said: "Or perhaps we shouldn’t blow it up? Our people are all around; detonating the bomb is dangerous. How about using artillery? Viper is dead, we don’t have to blow it up, right? Maybe we should get to a safe place to discuss what to do next, what do you guys think?"
