Rather, it was said by the Phoenix, whom Ye Lan had just come into contact with not long ago.
after all--
It only took Ye Lan a short time to prove that his judgment was useful.
As for coincidence?
Neither the Phoenix nor anyone else believes in such things.
"Yeah, 187."
Ye Lan nodded without any hesitation.
Then, without any change in his pace, he continued to rush towards the direction of the target he had previously determined.
……
About ten minutes later.
After vaguely seeing several Iron Fist search teams along the way.
Ye Lan's footsteps suddenly stopped.
He simply raised his hand to signal the team to stop their journey.
"Did you find the centipede?"
Gong Jian raised his gun and stepped forward.
While standing beside Ye Lan.
He looked around with a vigilant look.
pity--
Within Gong Jian's field of vision.
But I didn't find anything unusual.
"There is a cliff more than a thousand meters ahead."
Ye Lan shook his head slightly.
He frowned and said something.
"Ok?"
Gong Jian was a little slow to react.
He gave Ye Lan a questioning look.
Ye Lan didn't know how to explain his thoughts.
Instead, he looked at the tallest tree around.
After gesturing to the others.
Ye Lan took a running start.
He quickly climbed up the tree.
After reaching the middle position between the two branches.
Ye Lan directly set up his sniper rifle. (bcfc)
He looked towards the place he wanted with a very sharp gaze.
It didn't take long.
A figure holding a hostage appeared in Ye Lan's field of vision.
I watched as the other party directly clamped the hostage's neck.
His eyes scanned the surroundings very quickly.
Although his steps were not fast, they were somewhat chaotic as he approached the cliff behind him.
Ye Lan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
I quickly estimated the distance between the two parties in my mind.
Subsequently.
Ye Lan jumped down from the tree without any hesitation.
"Did you find anything?"
Looking at Ye Lan's eyes, there was a slight change.
Gong Jian asked directly.
"At two o'clock, on the cliff more than a thousand meters away."
"The centipede is holding a hostage nearby, with a sniper rifle and grenades in his hands."
Ye Lan directly and concisely told Gong Jian what he had observed.
Although the distance of more than one thousand meters is not easy for ordinary snipers.
It's very difficult.
But actually.
For Ye Lan.
There is still a great chance of success.
only--
The problem is that.
More than a thousand meters away.
Although Ye Lan can predict the enemy's position.
And kill the enemy accurately.
But no matter how fast the bullet is.
It takes a long time to float more than a thousand meters.
At least for someone like the centipede who licks blood on the tip of a knife.
Enough to alert you to the danger.
If it was under normal circumstances of killing the enemy.
Ye Lan has a way to avoid the errors caused by this situation.
But the problem is——
The centipede now has a hostage in his hand.
While the bullet was "floating"...
Even Ye Lan can ensure that he kills the centipede.
But considering the centipede's reaction ability.
Similarly, you can definitely take the hostage with you before you die!
"But centipedes have a strong sense of vigilance and sixth sense."
"I guess they have noticed our purpose."
"If there's nothing wrong, the centipede might just want to take a gamble."
"Just jump off the cliff and escape."
Think of the terrain where the centipede retreated with the hostages.
Ye Lan couldn't help but frown.
Although--
Cliff jumping is risky.
Even if there is water underneath.
But first of all, during the process of jumping off the cliff.
It is entirely possible to hit yourself directly on the stone.
Secondly.......
Even the impact of jumping off a cliff is not something that ordinary people can withstand.
But Centipede is a mercenary who has undergone professional training and life and death training.
In certain aspects.
Even stronger than some ordinary special forces members.
therefore.
Even if you have to face the impact of jumping off a cliff.
And then how to escape from the sea.
Ye Lan was also sure.
The other party's strength is certain.
therefore.
Regardless of the safety of the hostages.
Or it is to keep as many centipedes as possible.
The best plan now is to do it before the centipede gets close to the cliff.
Get rid of the opponent directly.
Fortunately.
This place is only more than a thousand meters away from Centipede Wine, Qiwuliu Erbaba Siyi and the hostages.
The centipede holding the hostage moved somewhat slowly.
There is no question of whether we can catch up or not.
Obviously.
Gong Jian thought so too.
After listening to Ye Lan's words.
He immediately communicated quickly with the command center about the current situation.
At the same time, he led the team and quickly chased in the direction Ye Lan said.
……
but--
As before landing on the island.
An instructor who is already familiar with the terrain of Crescent Island.
Gong Jian quickly matched the area that Ye Lan mentioned in his mind.
Think of the open space hundreds of meters in front of the cliff.
Gong Jian's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could have pinched a fly to death.
Although it is only a few hundred meters——
But for someone as cautious and vigilant as the centipede.
It is entirely possible to discover our own traces in advance.
"Ye Lan, this time you will be responsible for finding opportunities for sniping."
"As long as the hostages can be kept alive—"
"Once you are sure, there is no need to report, just shoot."
Although there are several snipers.
