The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

C62 – Enemy In Sight (1)

As Xu Yangyi and Tank were positioned at the entrance, the broadcast promptly initiated, announcing the commencement of the game.

Tank wasted no time and immediately lunged towards Xu Yangyi, seemingly aiming for a preemptive strike.

On Xu Yangyi’s end, he studied the map with remarkable composure. Afterward, he scanned the surroundings, deep in thought.

After a brief while, Xu Yangyi remained motionless, still engrossed in the map. Witnessing this, Ji Guangming found himself somewhat taken aback, but he soon grinned, “Could it be that our lady doesn’t comprehend the map?” Otherwise, why would he keep his eyes glued to it for so long?

Hee Jingyan refrained from commenting, as he didn’t share the same opinion. As Xu Yangyi’s gaze lifted from the map, it was evident he was still reflecting on something.

Rosen, who had been watching the screen, furrowed his brows. He had also assumed that Xu Yangyi was grappling with the map, yet just as he began suspecting something was amiss, Xu Yangyi finally acted. Tucking the map into his pocket, he seized his gun and surged toward the opposite end. Yet, just as Xu Yangyi vanished from the scene.

“Eh? Where did he go?” Ji Guangming exclaimed in surprise.

“It’s not that he’s gone; the camera didn’t capture him.” In that moment, Rosen’s anxiety was palpable.

Ji Guangming appeared perplexed, “The camera didn’t spot him? Impossible! Isn’t the camera’s internal system completely automated? It should eliminate blind spots entirely, so how could he have evaded it?” Doesn’t this seem exceedingly implausible? Unless our lady calculated that precise moment when the camera ceased functioning…

…… No, there still existed a way to evade the camera’s gaze. That would be during those few seconds when the camera paused, but… Could this truly be deduced solely by intellect?

Yet, at this very juncture, Rosen disclosed, “He didn’t just accurately gauge the camera’s pause, but he capitalized on the intervals between other cameras to embed himself into the footage, making it near-impossible for us to pinpoint his exact position.”

But for what reason? Even if we notice it, it wouldn’t hinder him! Could it be that he’s scheming something?

At this pace, within half an hour, he would infiltrate the kid’s domain. Any tactics he employed would be in vain, and prevailing against Tank was improbable. Then why did that youngster seem to exude a sense of triumph?

Furthermore, he had barely obtained his map, so his familiarity with this terrain was limited. How did he identify that instantaneous opening? And how did he manage this within the Dragon Riding Team?

Rosen’s gaze remained fixed on the screen’s tank. Abruptly, Tank came to a halt, and its operator stared in astonishment at the wrist instruments. Then, clutching the short gun, an expression of alarm plastered across Tank operator’s face as they prepared to fend off an imminent threat.

However, a considerable span elapsed sans any sound. Tank looked down at the sensor, yet precisely at that juncture, rustling emanated from the trees. Tank responded by firing thrice in rapid succession in the direction of the noise.

Tank was momentarily stunned, but relief soon swept over them. So it wasn’t the kid after all!

Nevertheless, what’s unfolding here? How is that brat’s location within ten meters of me? And, for the past ten minutes, he’s been advancing towards me at an astonishing pace. This isn’t the speed of a pedestrian – what could this signify?
