Chapter 218: Total Surrender!
Bang! The militant had not even finished a magazine of ammunition before a bullet found its way into his head. His body crumpled lifelessly to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the morale and courage of the militants took an even further dive, and everyone’s faces were filled with fear. Not a single one of them wanted to die.
“The 3 seconds are up! Those who have not released their weapons yet, die!” Yue Zhong’s ice-cold voice resounded throughout the area, as though it was hammering into the hearts of the militants.
With a ‘bang’, yet another militant who was still wielding his weapon received a bullet through his brains, falling lifelessly to the ground.
Watching another comrade die before them, the militants had faces filled with fear and they immediately threw their weapons to the ground.
Xiong Zheng saw his subordinates surrendering their weapons and he lightly sighed, before doing the same with his .79 Assault Rifle. At death’s door, it was something even trained soldiers would do and choose over honour. They were not bandits after all- facing the threat of death, surrendering was a normal course of action.
Most of the militants had thrown their guns down, but there were still 2 remaining militants who lay prone on the ground, using their comrades as a cover and awaiting Yue Zhong’s appearance. The moment he showed up, they would immediately make a move to kill him. However, they never expected that Yue Zhong had already grasped each and every militant’s location clearly.
Seeing that the 2 crafty militants still held the notion of retaliating, Yue Zhong fired 2 shots that directly penetrated their skulls.
After the 2 militants were picked off by Yue Zhong, Xiong Zheng’s backup plans were entirely quelled.
In the darkness, Yue Zhong coldly ordered, “All of you get out of the cover. Walk to the bus and squat down with your hands above your heads. Those who don’t comply will be dealt with immediately.”
After all, Yue Zhong was acting on his own: if he were to reveal himself and get ambushed, he would have to worry about the militants making use of the opportunity to escape one by one. At that time, it would be very troublesome to deal with them. If he could gather them together and keep an eye on them, if they did want to escape, then it would be much easier to take care of them.
One by one, the militants walked out from the cover, towards the direction Yue Zhong had indicated.
All of a sudden, one of the militants made a break for it, wanting to use the cover of the night to escape.
With a ‘bang’, the militant did not even make it past a few steps before receiving a bullet through his brain, becoming a corpse collapsed on the ground.
Witnessing this, the fear of Yue Zhong only grew even more in the militants’ hearts as they made their way to the bus and squatted down with their hands above their heads; no one else made a further attempt to disrupt anything.
