Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Landing on the Island (3 more)
Eleven team members, led by He Jun, made their way directly to the top floor of the office building.
There, a helicopter awaited to transport them straight to the island.
Ye Xuan followed leisurely at the back of the group, his face the picture of relaxation, looking as if he were on vacation rather than on a mission!
Many Dragon Soul members bore puzzled expressions. How could this guy seem more unreliable the more they looked? With such a frail body, how many enemies could he take down?
They knew the targets this time were formidable—one being two leaders from the Extreme Organization. Could he handle them?
Members of Dragon Soul couldn’t help doubting this so-called expert. Could he be an imposter? Seeing his carefree demeanor, their doubts grew. This was not the attitude of a true master.
Although they didn’t voice their concerns, they couldn’t shake the feeling that Ye Xuan was nothing but a fraud.
Sun Jinfeng glanced at Ye Xuan, noticing the attitude of those around him, and smirked coldly to himself.
Ignoring the odd looks from everyone, Ye Xuan took out his phone and called Qin Lan.
He had some questions, given last night’s events.
Indeed, as expected, Zhao Jingang had been dealt with by the Five Golden Flowers the night before, ending up frothing at the mouth and rushed to the intensive care unit in the middle of the night, taking a month off work.
That old letch wasn’t fired? Ye Xuan was somewhat surprised, but considering his current condition, he wasn’t going to stir up much trouble.
Knowing that Zhao Jingang hadn’t troubled Qin Lan any further, Ye Xuan felt relieved. After hanging up, he followed the others to the rooftop of the office building.
Then, the eleven boarded the helicopter, which rose into the sky amidst the roaring of the propellers.
The group began their journey toward Duck Sea Islands and the submerged banks known as Zengmu Ansha.
After boarding the plane, Ye Xuan chose a window seat and began to rest with eyes closed.
Seeing Ye Xuan fall asleep as soon as he got in, some of the other Dragon Soul members in the back exchanged glances, speechless.
"Dammit, this kid looks like he’s on vacation. Could it be that Captain Qiu deceived us, saying he’s an expert?"
"I don’t think that’s likely. Maybe Captain Qiu overestimated his abilities, or maybe this kid isn’t aware of the level of danger of this operation. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so relaxed!"
"He hasn’t even grasped the details of the operation yet and he has the nerve to sleep here? He’s going to regret it soon!"
"Isn’t that right? We are up against a fully armed Extreme Organization, including two notorious international criminals! If it weren’t for the possibility of them landing in Yan Country anytime, causing this urgent situation, we wouldn’t have embarked on this mission so rashly!"
"The risk factor of the mission is too high. If reinforcements don’t arrive in time, it’ll be very difficult for just us to complete it. When the time comes, let’s hope this ’expert’ doesn’t drag us down, or we’ll have to split our focus to look after him, making the mission even more difficult!"
"Ha! If you ask me, the moment he sees the battlefield, he’ll be scared stiff and run for the hills!"
A group of them discussed in whispers, casting disdainful looks at the sleeping Ye Xuan.
"Shut it, you guys. Quiet your minds and focus before battle, and avoid being restless and agitated!"
Qiu Mohan, standing by, turned his head and glared at them, speaking with a cold expression on his face.
Everyone immediately fell silent, as Qiu Mohan evidently still held great deterrence in their hearts.
To travel from East Sea City to the Duck Sea Archipelago spanned across half of Yan Country; depending on the speed of this military helicopter, it would take three hours.
Ye Xuan slept for over two hours in one go.
And when he woke up, the aircraft was already nearing Duck Sea, getting closer to the destination.
At that moment, He Jun called Ye Xuan over and briefed him on the situation they were about to encounter.
He Jun spread out a military map in front of Ye Xuan, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "According to the reliable information we have obtained, members of the Extreme Organization are hiding in a deserted military school located on the submerged shoal of the Duck Sea Islands. Their leaders, Black Mountain Eagle and Wu Zongkui, have made it a temporary base, establishing armed defenses. Based on our current observations, they send people to buy food from the nearby fishermen every day, and judging by the amount of food, there might be around twenty people."
Twenty people—that was twice their current number! And these were all fully armed, taking advantage of the terrain; indeed, this operation was extremely tricky.
Ye Xuan frowned, studying the map in his hands, which was a military topographic map of the submerged shoal.
He closed his eyes slightly, memorizing the detailed topography in his mind. Although Ye Xuan did not fear much, being prepared on the battlefield always benefited his own side!
Moreover, controlling the terrain was very important for winning a war, a habit that Ye Xuan had long formed.
After a moment of contemplation with eyes closed, Ye Xuan pointed to the military school on the map and asked, "Can you confirm their exact location within the area?"
He Jun, with a hint of regret, said, "We cannot detect that at the moment because our people dare not approach too close and thus cannot gather valid intelligence. Also, the thermal imagers are being jammed; they must have unconventional cooling methods to cover their thermal signatures. However, judging by the routes taken by the individuals purchasing food daily, they are likely at the No. 3 training camp, though we can’t be certain."
After hearing He Jun’s words, Ye Xuan pondered for a while and asked, "How is the enemy’s firepower distributed?"
He Jun frowned and answered, "We still don’t know the distribution of the enemy’s firepower, but they definitely all have guns. As for whether they have other heavy weapons, unfortunately, we are not sure."
Ye Xuan was speechless.
How could Dragon Soul conduct its business so unreliably?
If things are unclear now, wouldn’t it be too late to investigate when the fighting starts? By then, all would be lost!
From the current situation, that group from the Extreme Organization dared to land in Yan Country because they must be relying on something. Ye Xuan felt that if He Jun and his team went in blindly, it would clearly be a death mission.
Of course, whether the others lived or died was of no concern to Ye Xuan, but since Qiu Mohan had sought his help, if these people died too, wouldn’t it affect his reputation once word got out?
Ye Xuan could only patiently ask He Jun, "Since you guys plan to land on the island, do you have any combat plans?"
Faced with Ye Xuan’s gaze, He Jun seemed to have an illusion, almost feeling as if the other party was the overall commander of this operation, and he was just a subordinate, reporting to Ye Xuan, which made him feel awkward inside.
But the situation was urgent, so he didn’t think about it too much and shared the information he had with Ye Xuan.
"We will descend near the island shortly. At that time, our people will rendezvous with us, and then we will disguise ourselves as local fishermen, using fishing boats to land on the island and enter the Extreme Organization’s temporary base, the deserted military school. Our goal is just to scout, so we only need to approach the No. 3 training camp. Once we spot the enemy, we mustn’t act rashly! Retreat to the rendezvous point and wait for support from headquarters!"
Upon hearing He Jun’s plan, Ye Xuan nodded; although this action plan was very risky, it was also the most suitable method under the current circumstances.
Half an hour later, the helicopter arrived at the destination, landing on an uninhabited islet not far from the submerged shoal.
