"Mr. Wan, what are you looking at?"
At this moment, Lu Xin, with two team members, approached. They saw Wan Yunting squatting over there, gazing intently into the distance. However, as it was late at night, visibility was limited. Even with night vision goggles, it was impossible to see the village a kilometer away.
It was even more impossible for him to see the movements of the people in the village as clearly as Wan Yunting could.
"There are armed forces in that village!"
Wan Yunting narrowed his eyes, his pupils emitting a faint green light. However, Lu Xin and the team members beside him couldn't see the abnormality in his eyes at all. They only felt that his gaze was extremely sharp and focused. Lu Xin, still bewildered, asked, "Can you see that village?"
"No way, I can't even see the village with my night vision goggles."
A team member next to him tried with his night vision goggles but couldn't see the village a kilometer away, only its outline.
"I can!"
Wan Yunting continued to observe the movements of the armed personnel in the village and said calmly.
Lu Xin and several team members exchanged glances, looking at him in disbelief. Qin Guowu stepped forward and said, "Be careful, don't be spotted by the enemy snipers!"
Wan Yunting shook his head and said, "It's fine, besides that village and us, there's no one within a kilometer!"
Qin Guowu was also stunned by this statement. He stared blankly at Wan Yunting, who was half-kneeling. Although he knew Wan Yunting was very capable, he still found it unbelievable when he heard him say this, as it was far beyond ordinary people's comprehension.
"Dr. Wan says he can see the village and that there are armed personnel!" Lu Xin still said with disbelief.
Qin Guowu looked at Wan Yunting in astonishment, then stood up and looked at Lu Xin and everyone else, saying, "This village should be providing food for the Molten mercenary base. I'm afraid all the men in the village are dead, leaving only a group of women."
Qin Guowu, Lu Xin, and the team members present looked at Wan Yunting with expressions of shock and utter disbelief. Wan Yunting then realized that everyone was looking at him strangely and asked, "Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?"
"It's not Dr. Wan, but can your eyes really see the situation in that village clearly?" Lu Xin still didn't believe it and pressed the question.
Wan Yunting was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "If you don't believe me, you can try looking with a sniper rifle."
"Xiao Wang, give me..."
Qin Guowu immediately snatched a sniper rifle from a team member who was holding it. The rifle had a scope that could see a kilometer away, but it was night, and the vision wasn't great, yet the village a kilometer away could still be vaguely seen.
Wan Yunting said, "In the courtyard at the one o'clock direction, there are six armed personnel roasting lamb, and a village woman is carrying a water bucket out..."
Qin Guowu looked as Wan Yunting spoke. He held the sniper rifle and vaguely saw the scene through the scope. He couldn't help but be shocked. He put down the rifle, turned to Wan Yunting, and exclaimed, "Dr. Wan, you're truly divine! You can see so far with your naked eyes..."
"Let me see..."
Lu Xin, unwilling to believe it, snatched the sniper rifle and looked. It was exactly as Wan Yunting had said.
At this point, Lu Xin's gaze towards him completely changed. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Dr. Wan, I suspect you are not human!"
Wan Yunting laughed and said, "I practice martial arts. As long as I can channel my inner energy to my eyes, I can see very far."
"Alright."
This time, Qin Guowu and Lu Xin and the others were completely convinced. Their incredible abilities could no longer be defined by science.
"What did Captain Luo say?" Wan Yunting asked.
Qin Guowu said, "I told him about our current situation, and Captain Luo asked us to scout around the Molkard Company mercenary base and then formulate a rescue plan."
Wan Yunting nodded, his eyebrows raised. "Why don't we scout that village first and gather some basic information about their base?"
"I think that's a good idea."
Lu Xin nodded. Qin Guowu thought for a moment and also agreed, saying, "Then, Old Lu, you take six men and sneak into that village with Dr. Wan to scout and confirm if this village is specifically providing food for the mercenary base!"
"Okay."
Lu Xin nodded and immediately gathered six team members plus Wan Yunting. The eight of them began to sneak towards the distant village along the hillside...
Qin Guowu, with his team members, remained on the hillside, vigilantly observing any movements in the surroundings. From time to time, they also contacted headquarters via shortwave radio to report the situation...
"Be careful...!"
Lu Xin led six team members behind Wan Yunting. They all wore night vision goggles and held their rifles, their attention fully focused. Wan Yunting, at the forefront, clearly saw everything around him with his special eyes and quickly led Lu Xin and the others to a dirt wall on the outskirts of the village. They immediately heard the sound of a car starting!
"Get down..."
Wan Yunting immediately told Lu Xin and the others to crouch by the wall and not move.
A moment later, a truck emerged from the village gate. It was the armed group. Wan Yunting hid by the corner of the dirt wall, sticking his head out to watch the truck emerge. He also clearly saw the clothes of the armed personnel sitting on it. They all had the Molkard Company mercenary insignia!
"They are Molten mercenaries!" Wan Yunting turned to Lu Xin, who was beside him, and said.
Lu Xin nodded and said gravely, "It seems all the men in this village have been killed by Molten's men!"
Wan Yunting observed the surroundings of the village again and said to Lu Xin, "Let's go back. Don't alert them yet."
"Alright, let's go..."
Lu Xin led the six team members, following Wan Yunting, and quickly withdrew from the village, returning behind the small hillside. Qin Guowu hurried to ask when he saw them return, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, they are Molten mercenaries, and that village is already under their control!" Lu Xin said.
"Captain Qin, we can use this village!" Wan Yunting said immediately.
Qin Guowu and Lu Xin were stunned. They exchanged a look and then turned to Wan Yunting in unison, saying, "You intend to use this village to infiltrate the Molten mercenary base?"
Wan Yunting nodded and said, "This village is their food collection point. Someone from their base should come here every day to collect supplies. So, we can use this to infiltrate their base and gather more information!"
"No, this is too risky."
Qin Guowu immediately shook his head and said, "If we are discovered, it will be a dead end!"
"Yes, and besides, we don't speak their local language. If we are discovered, we won't be able to escape from their base. Not only that, but they will definitely execute Gu Yingbo immediately!" Lu Xin also said.
But Wan Yunting shook his head and said, "From that group earlier, I also saw a young man with an Eastern face. I'm sure Molten's mercenaries are multinational members, and English is definitely the primary language, so language is not a problem!"
"I suggest that I infiltrate alone, get a grasp of their basic internal situation, and then we can formulate a plan. What do you think?"
Qin Guowu and Lu Xin looked at each other. At this point, they had no other way to rescue Gu Yingbo, and Wan Yunting's proposal was not entirely unfeasible.
"I'll report to Captain Luo." Qin Guowu said conservatively.
Wan Yunting nodded, "No problem, they probably won't come to get food again until dawn anyway."
Qin Guowu and Lu Xin nodded and immediately contacted Luo Guowei at the outpost via shortwave communication, informing him of Wan Yunting's infiltration plan. Luo Guowei personally asked Wan Yunting if he was confident!
After all, infiltrating the Molten mercenary base alone was too dangerous. If he were discovered, it would be a sure death.
Finally, Wan Yunting persuaded Luo Guowei and got his approval for the plan!
The next morning, as dawn was breaking, Wan Yunting and Qin Guowu's team remained hidden in a concealed gully behind the hillside. Snipers were positioned on the hillside, observing any movements in the village a kilometer away.
He saw two trucks slowly approaching the village from afar. The sniper immediately said into his walkie-talkie, "Captain Qin, Captain Qin, there are two vehicles heading towards the village!"
"Received, maintain concealment."
Qin Guowu instructed. Wan Yunting, leaning against the rock wall beside him, opened his eyes, immediately got up, and adjusted his gear, saying, "You wait here for my news."
Qin Guowu and Lu Xin all stood up and said sternly, "If you are discovered, send us a signal, and we will find a way to support you."
"Understood."
Wan Yunting nodded and immediately ran down the hillside. Lu Xin shouted, "Be extra careful..."
Qin Guowu and the other combat members watched Wan Yunting run like a leopard, his speed extremely fast, using the cover of the Gobi Desert hillside rocks to head towards the village. Lu Xin was still worried, "Old Qin, can he do it alone?"
Qin Guowu sighed and said, "This is the only plan we have now. Otherwise, are we going to go head-to-head with Molten's hundreds of mercenaries?"
"That's true, but I'm still a bit worried," Lu Xin said worriedly.
Qin Guowu smiled and said, "Don't forget, Dr. Wan is no ordinary person. Since he has confidence, it means he has the ability to figure out the situation at the base. We'll just wait here for his news."
Lu Xin listened and nodded. It was the only way.
Lying on the hillside, hidden behind a rock, a sniper wearing a ghillie suit clearly saw Wan Yunting's figure running towards the other side of the village. His running speed was so fast that the sniper couldn't help but say into the walkie-talkie, "If Dr. Wan participated in a 100-meter track and field competition, he would definitely win the world championship."
Qin Guowu looked back at the hillside and said into the walkie-talkie, "Keep an eye on him. Report immediately if anything unexpected happens."
"Yes."
The sniper responded and fell silent.
Wan Yunting soon arrived at the other side of the village. Based on where the group from last night had collected food in a courtyard, Wan Yunting flipped over a wall and entered a small courtyard. There was no one inside. It was estimated that all the women in the village had gone to that courtyard to help prepare food for the mercenaries at the base.
Although the Molten mercenary base had over three hundred men, not all of them were highly skilled veterans from various countries' special forces. Some were also armed personnel they had recruited after annihilating local armed groups in Africa.
These teams responsible for collecting food from various villages were these armed personnel, so their combat effectiveness was naturally inferior to seasoned killers like Pizarro whom Wan Yunting had encountered before.
At this moment, in that courtyard, dozens of local village women were busy preparing various kinds of food. There were fourteen armed personnel who had come to collect food today. They were all wearing local attire, armed with various firearms, and were urging these older village women to prepare the food.
All the men in this village, the young ones had been captured and taken to the base, while the older ones had all been brutally murdered, leaving only the women in the village, thus posing no significant threat.
