Mercenary’s War

Chapter 2371 - 2347: Unmatched in Close Quarters

Unbeatable in close combat, naturally suited for indoor battles where life and death are decided upon meeting.

As a marksman with the title of Gun God, Gao Yang’s long-range shooting abilities need no further proof, but at long distances, anything can happen. Thus, as Gao Yang’s target, there’s still a slim chance of survival at long distances.

But when the range is within ten, twenty, thirty meters, no one escapes from under Gao Yang’s gun.

If many people surround Gao Yang and start shooting together, then Gao Yang would certainly die. But aside from such extremely demanding and almost impossible situations, as long as Gao Yang has a gun at close range, he is invincible, and this has been proven many times.

Gao Yang jumped into the room.

It was an office, and a desk was right under the window, so although Gao Yang managed to retract his legs in time, he couldn’t adjust his posture fully and had to sit down heavily on the desk, painfully pinched by the unknown clutter on it.

But Gao Yang was inside after all.

There was someone inside the room, but he was already lying face down on the floor, with a pool of blood under him visible through the night vision device.

The door was actually closed, and after shooting the back of the enemy’s head who was still unsure if alive or dead, Gao Yang lowly whispered, "Clear!"

Li Jinfang followed and jumped in, then Eileen.

Gao Yang swiftly moved towards the door, first placing his ear against the wooden door to listen closely for a moment, then signaled with a hand, after which Li Jinfang pulled the door open, Eileen tossed a shock grenade, and after a flash and a loud bang, Gao Yang ran forward two steps and slid out the door on his knees.

Facing more directions of the room, Gao Yang undoubtedly saw three people.

No hesitation, no courtesy, Gao Yang continuously pulled the trigger, although the enemy was already alert and aiming in his direction, he fired first.

Because of indoor combat, for rapid shooting, Gao Yang specially chose low-load shotgun shells, thus reducing recoil so he could pour out bullets faster.

The enemy fired, but failed to hit Gao Yang. They were a step slower in reaction; this brief moment was enough for Gao Yang to hit their faces, causing them to fall backward in an irresistible impact and their gun muzzles to lift too high when they pulled the trigger, making all their bullets miss.

After firing four consecutive shots, Gao Yang managed to kill four people who didn’t have time to shoot accurately. Faster, more precise, more lethal—this is why Gao Yang is unbeatable in close combat.

Gun God vs. mortals, naturally one must have overwhelming strength; otherwise, how can one be termed Gun God, how could one be called divinity.

But when Gao Yang stopped sliding, he had already killed four people, so he quickly rose up while loading more bullets, while Li Jinfang had just jumped out and aimed his gun behind Gao Yang.

Just as Li Jinfang was able to cover Gao Yang’s back, someone appeared from behind the door, conveniently running into Li Jinfang’s gun muzzle.

Short burst, another short burst, as Li Jinfang killed one emerging enemy, another immediately followed. Although his gunmanship couldn’t compare to Gao Yang’s, Li Jinfang never failed to kill an enemy at extremely close range in indoor combat, which is why he qualifies to cover Gao Yang’s back.

Eileen also darted out, moving her gun back and forth; when Gao Yang aimed left, she aimed right, when Gao Yang aimed right, her gun muzzle inevitably aimed left.

For the direction Gao Yang faced, no one needs to help him relieve the pressure, but he does need someone to protect his back and both sides, allowing him to sweep away all enemies in sight with complete focus.

"Clear!"

When Gao Yang shouted clear again, Frey and others had all entered behind him.

With people covering the back, Li Jinfang turned around and pointed his gun forward, Eileen kicked open a door, met immediately by continuous pistol shots.

Gao Yang did not enter the room; he simply crouched and casually tossed his single-handedly held gun inside while firing, instantly silencing the pistol shots.

The enemy hid behind the wall, but Gao Yang didn’t need to expose half of his body to shoot; even though enemies were in unseen areas behind walls, bullets could still reach them, simply by sticking the gun out, very simple.

With one shot hitting the enemy, Gao Yang moved half his body past the door, recovery to holding his gun with both hands and shot again at the just-shot person.

Casually reloading a bullet into the gun chamber, after confirming nobody else in the room, Gao Yang stepped out and turned his attention to the next room.

Indoor battle, especially in buildings with many rooms, requires room-by-room searching to ensure everyone inside is deceased. It’s truly a hassle.

But the current battle is not a decapitation operation, not one where you can evacuate after killing a target, so inspecting every room is necessary, no matter how cumbersome, because any oversight, any unchecked and unsecured rooms harboring hiding enemies would almost certainly lead to severe consequences.

When Gao Yang first entered, there were still several unchecked rooms behind, but Frey and others would check them.

Patiently inspecting each room, Gao Yang finally approached the entrance of the building, and immediately spotted Directional Mines carelessly placed on the ground.

In an instant, Gao Yang saw three Directional Mines, though positioned differently, were all aimed at the entrance.

The Directional Mines were hastily arranged, but it was clear at a glance the person who set them was an expert. The shock waves from the mines wouldn’t affect each other, but could repetitively seal off the entrance from all angles.

"Master indeed!"

Standing behind the Directional Mines without worrying about anything, Gao Yang sighed—partly an admiration for the enemy, partly a warning for comrades, acknowledging they were facing masters, not amateurs.

Just as Gao Yang uttered his sigh, a shadow suddenly stood up and fired at him.

For Gao Yang to kill an enemy, he must be able to see them. Similarly, if anyone wishes to kill Gao Yang, they of course must see him as well.

With a gunshot, Gao Yang killed the enemy he saw, and after eliminating the enemy, Gao Yang quietly said, "I feel he was about to adjust the Directional Mines’ direction, and also, he’s a Black!"

Eileen froze for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "Not Shah People?"

As Gao Yang cautiously advanced, he softly replied, "Definitely not!"

"How can you be sure? Shah People also have Blacks."

"Just a feeling."

After replying to Eileen, Gao Yang felt his answer might be too casual, so he softly added, "Shah People wouldn’t be this capable."
