Chapter 1 I was forced
Chapter 1 I was forced
The Amazon rainforest in South America is a restricted area for humans.
Jiang Ning lay under a tree, gasping for breath, feeling like he was about to die.
He was a mercenary. After graduating from high school, he failed to get into college, so he followed someone to Africa to make a fortune. However, he did not make much money. During an armed conflict, his boss died first. With no other options, he became a mercenary and lived an extraordinary life.
This trip to the Amazon is to kill people.
A guy hiding in a castle.
As a result, they were ambushed before they got close.
The regiment commander was shot to pieces by a machine gun.
More than half of the teammates died on the spot.
Jiang Ning was lucky and managed to break out of the siege and rush into the rainforest.
After finally getting rid of the pursuers, he was knocked down by a poisonous snake.
My left leg has lost feeling.
Breathing gradually became difficult, as if someone was strangling my neck.
Jiang Ning was not afraid of death. He had rolled in the rain of bullets and slept among the dead in the past few years. If he was still afraid of death, he would not have survived until now. He was just a little unwilling to accept the fact that he was only 24 years old and had not yet married.
His parents worked so hard to raise him, but he didn't even have the chance to fulfill his filial duties!
I really don't want to die like this.
It would be fine if he had been shot to death before.
But being poisoned to death by a venomous snake is too frustrating.
Vision gradually blurred.
Jiang Ning supported himself on the ground with his hands and tried to sit up.
But after trying for a long time, I still couldn't achieve my wish.
There is a stone under my right hand, and it hurts the palm of my hand.
I picked it up and took a look. It was a colorful stone.
Walnut sized and round.
"so beautiful!"
Jiang Ning was dazzled; the stone was so beautiful.
I have never seen such beautiful stones.
It must be worth a lot of money.
pity……
I'm about to die.
Jiang Ning suddenly felt a little homesick and missed his parents.
I have been out for more than five years and have never been home.
He knows his parents' worries.
But many times I have no choice.
I had originally planned to go home in two years, once I had earned enough money, buy a house in my hometown, get married, and live a normal life. But I no longer have the chance. I must have been betrayed by someone. Who could it be?
Faces flashed through my mind.
Jiang Ning couldn't determine who the traitor was.
Forget it, I don't want to.
People are about to die, what can we do even if we know who the traitor is?
My vision became increasingly blurry and I could no longer see anything clearly.
My thinking has also become much slower.
Jiang Ning was in a daze, with only one thought in his mind: Will my parents know that I am dead?
I do not know how long it has been……
"Why aren't you dead yet?"
Jiang Ning was a little puzzled and sat up with his hands on the ground.
Then he froze.
Able to move.
Not dead.
This is not the point. The point is that the colorful stone ran into his body.
Right at the chest.
Jiang Ning had an additional perspective. He could "see" a colorful stone residing in the center of his chest. It couldn't even be called a stone anymore, but a sphere of colorful light, gorgeous and mysterious.
The ball seemed to be a part of his body.
There is a feeling of being connected by blood.
Jiang Ning also knew what this thing was.
This is the source of the five elements and has many wonderful uses.
"Is this the legendary cheat?"
Jiang Ning was both surprised and delighted. When he was in high school, he read a lot of online novels and dreamed of becoming the protagonist.
I haven’t watched it since it came out, mainly because there’s nothing I can watch even if I want to.
If you have to work hard to eat, you won’t have time to dream.
But I didn't expect that my luck would turn around and I would become the protagonist of an online article.
I looked at my legs. The swelling on my left leg, which had been as swollen as a pig's thigh, had subsided, and there was not even a mark left on my ankle from the snake bite. I stood up and moved my hands and feet. I felt full of strength and no longer felt tired at all. I really didn't have to die.
Feels great.
If you survive a great disaster, you will be blessed in the future!
The ancients never lied to me.
The sun was at noon, and I looked at the time. Three hours had passed.
The light was dim in the silent rain forest, as the towering trees blocked out the sunlight.
Dense vegetation blocked the view.
The chaotic chirping of insects surrounded my ears from all directions.
There are countless deadly dangers lurking in places beyond our sight.
While Jiang Ning was comprehending the magical effects of the source of the Five Elements, he also tried out his knife.
It's too humid in the rainforest.
Water vapor in the air is visible to the naked eye.
With a snap of his fingers, a cloud of water vapor condensed at his fingertips.
Soon it formed a water ball.
The basic skill of the source of the five elements: water control.
With a flick of his fingers, green halos flew out and landed in the nearby grass.
The plants began to grow wildly. This was the essence of Yi Wood, the source of the Five Elements, which represented life and growth. It was actually a super artifact for accelerating growth. With just a thought, the wildly growing plants quickly withered. The special skill of Wood of the Five Elements: deprivation.
As he moved his fingers, a flame lit up at his fingertips.
With a flick of his finger, the flame fell into the grass.
Unfortunately it didn't catch fire and went out.
The rainforest is too humid to burn.
The thought came again.
A faint yellow light rose from Jiang Ning's body and he sank directly into the ground.
Basic skills of the Five Elements: Earth Escape.
When I was a child, I read The Investiture of the Gods and I particularly liked Tuxingsun.
It's not that Tuxingsun is so handsome, but his earth escape skill is too awesome. It is indeed an essential skill to sneak into the enemy camp and assassinate the target. If he had obtained the source of the Five Elements earlier, there would be no need for an entire team for this mission, he could have completed it alone.
Jiang Ning felt that the underground world was not quite what he had imagined.
When the earth escape technique was activated, the soil seemed to turn into sea water.
And he is like a fish, swimming in the sea.
I couldn't feel any resistance at all. And after launching the earth escape, my life form seemed to have changed.
There was no need to breathe anymore.
Jiang Ning tried to go at full speed, estimating the speed to be about 50 kilometers per hour.
Not too fast, but not too slow either.
When I came out from underground, I found myself at the edge of a river.
I looked around, but couldn't figure out where I was.
I was so busy escaping that I got lost a long time ago.
Jiang Ning didn't care. With the Origin of the Five Elements, all the plants in the rain forest were his eyes. They could tell him what kind of insects and plants were hiding in the grass. He was not afraid of being bitten by snakes and insects again. With the magical skill of earth escape, he could always get out with some effort.
What made him most happy was that there was a five-element space inside the source of the five elements.
Not big, about one cubic meter.
Things that are too big cannot be put in.
But it is no problem to pack the accompanying items.
This is much more convenient.
After putting all the guns and weapons in, Jiang Ning set off lightly.
After some effort and three and a half hours of burrowing underground, they finally returned to the ambush place when the sun was about to set. Along the way, they encountered many corpses of comrades, but they did not have to dig holes and directly brought them underground using the burrowing underground.
After all, we are comrades-in-arms, and this is all we can do.
When going out on a mission, one won't carry too much money with him.
In total, more than $10,000 was collected.
All the weapons were collected and no one was wasted.
After searching for a long time, they couldn't find the bodies of the militants who ambushed them. I remember that a lot of people were killed at that time, but now the bodies were nowhere to be found. They must have been taken away. Since they couldn't find any clues, they had to go to the castle five kilometers away.
The castle was built on the edge of the rainforest.
There lives an old guy inside, who is said to be over a hundred years old.
Their mission this time was to kill the old guy, but they were unlucky. Perhaps the operation was leaked or they were betrayed. When they came out of the rainforest, they were ambushed before they got close to the castle.
Jiang Ning tried to contact his comrades, but failed to get through to any of them.
Only half of the bodies were found. Except for those who died on the spot, the rest should have been captured.
He used the earth escape technique and easily reached the bottom of the castle.
I originally planned to explore the castle from underground, but I made a new discovery.
The castle actually had an underground city, and it was quite large. It was all made of reinforced concrete. Reinforced concrete was also made of soil, and it couldn't stop earth escape. Jiang Ning sneaked in without any hindrance and found that it was an armory.
The area is not large, less than 100 square meters.
There aren’t many weapons, but all of them are fine pieces and collectibles.
Jiang Ning looked around and his eyes lit up.
They are all customized versions and weapons that are not available on the market.
As someone who makes a living by using guns, how can I resist seeing good weapons?
After picking up a few pistols, I started to have a headache when I looked at a customized H416. Its length was a bit too long, and I had to disassemble the gun if I wanted to put it into the Five Elements Space. The most urgent thing was to find out the situation of the castle, not the time to do these things.
Jiang Ning had no choice but to give up and started the investigation.
The underground palace is divided into two floors, and this is the lower floor.
The living facilities are complete and the decoration is very luxurious.
There is also a large supply warehouse filled with daily necessities, enough to feed dozens of people for a year, as well as a lot of high-tech equipment and many things that are difficult to understand. What surprised Jiang Ning the most was a small treasury.
The vault contains not only many antiques and artworks, but also gold and cash.
There wasn't much gold, so two boxes were filled with ten-kilogram gold bars.
I counted them and found there were twenty-four pieces in each box.
There are forty-eight pieces in total, weighing a total of 480 kilograms.
"Sent!"
Jiang Ning's eyes lit up, there was no point in being polite.
I immediately scanned the five elements space and found that there was actually not much.
The density of gold is too high. It weighs less than half a ton and is only half the size of a computer case.
In addition to gold, there is also a large amount of cash.
The largest currency is the US dollar, followed by the euro and the pound.
It is estimated to be several million.
Jiang Ning didn't even have time to count them, so he accepted them all with a smile.
As for those artworks and antiques, he, a high school student, couldn't even recognize the antiques from his hometown, let alone those from foreigners. He just picked up a few at random and had no idea how much they were worth. He would wait until later to find someone who knows about it to take a look.
After scouting the second floor, no one was seen.
Jiang Ning didn't touch the elevator, but went directly into the first floor through the earth tunnel.
What he saw surprised him greatly.
The first floor was a large-scale experimental room, where dozens of guys in white coats were doing all sorts of forbidden experiments on humans. Looking at the human babies being dissected open on the experimental table, Jiang Ning's scalp exploded. No normal person could bear it.
"who?"
Bai Da Gua was shocked when he saw someone coming in.
Jiang Ning didn't want to waste time, so he picked up the AK74 and started firing.
The first floor of the underground palace was instantly boiling with screams and cries coming one after another.
Bai Da Gua, who was working, never expected that someone would break in and kill people. They rushed around like headless flies, some ran outside in panic, and some hid under the table. Jiang Ning killed them all to his heart's content.
After killing more than twenty Bai Dagua, someone finally came down from above.
The elevator rang and seven or eight fully armed security guards rushed out.
We meet on a narrow road.
Jiang Ning reacted quickly and shot and killed the two in front of him immediately.
The militants behind immediately covered each other's fire.
Jiang Ning rushed to the left, where there was a wall.
But the wall couldn't stop him, it was as if it didn't exist and he passed right through it.
"shit!"
The remaining militants were stunned.
I thought I was seeing things.
Just as he was in a daze, Jiang Ning flashed out through the wall from the other side.
"Suddenly..."
Amid the crisp sound of gunfire, three more militants were killed.
"OMG!"
The three remaining militants cried out to God while looking for places to hide and fighting back when they could.
Jiang Ning walked through the wall again and quickly emerged from the other side.
Send the remaining three militants to see God from behind.
Then they found the seven or eight Bai Dagua who were hiding and beat them to death.
"Let me go, I was forced..."
Bai Da Gua cried and begged for mercy, but Jiang Ning was as hard as stone.
Send these scumbags to see God without mercy.
After cleaning up the underground palace, he escaped again.
