17. Rescue operations(2/2)
Merlin squatted down, tear the tape on Pierce's mouth apart, and said to Pierce:
"Sir, you have suffered. We are here to save you, come with me!"
"Um!"
Pierce is also a tough guy. Even though he was abused so badly during the past half day, he was not panicked or ecstatic at the moment of his rescue.
Merlin cut the rope from his wrist and released the other five people in the basement, ready to take them away.
"Give me a weapon, young man."
Pierce limped behind Merlin. The tough old man in his 50s and gray hair gritted his teeth and said:
"I will protect myself, you just need to open the way in front."
Merlin looked back at the commander who had met for the first time. He reached out and took the pistol from his waist and handed it to Pierce. The latter took it in his hand, skillfully opened the insurance, and nodded to Merlin, indicating that they should leave.
"Fry, Chief Pierce has been rescued, and I am taking him away."
Merlin reported in the communication, and Fury's voice rang out the next moment:
"Received! Patton and Natasha will cover you and make sure to keep Your Excellency Pierce safe."
"Come with me, sir."
Merlin said, then stepped out of the basement with his double blades in his hand. Pierce followed him and followed him step by step. The remaining rescued people were still wearing tape on their mouths. This was what Pierce asked, so that these civil servants would not be frightened and would make noises to expose their location.
"You did all this alone?"
Pierce walked out of the basement and smelled the blood. He looked around and found that there were more than a dozen militants lying in the open space, and they had not heard any gunshots in the cage just now.
In other words, the young agent in front of him killed more than a dozen militants with cold weapons alone in the dark.
"Are you Merlin?"
Pierce immediately remembered the newcomer who was recruited by Ms. Carter himself. He had read Merlin's files and knew Merlin had some special abilities.
"Yes, I'm Merlin."
Merlin did not look back. He used dark perception to sense the lives moving around him, and he whispered:
"After learning that you are trapped, I immediately came with Fury and the others."
"Okay! Very good."
Pierce clicked, and he held the gun in both hands and responded in the darkness:
"You are an excellent agent, and Ms. Carter is indeed very keen."
"stop!"
Merlin raised his hand and asked the person behind him to stop, he said to Pierce:
"There is a situation ahead, please wait for a moment!"
After saying that, he walked into the stairs in front of him. After a while, Merlin poked his head out of the stairs and snapped his fingers at Pierce below:
"The situation is resolved! Let's continue."
Pierce walked around the stairs and saw three more bodies lying there at the entrance of the stairs.
This time, as I saw with my own eyes, Pierce finally had an intuitive feeling of Merlin's assassination ability.
This guy walked quietly in the darkness and was simply a natural killer.
A few minutes later, Merlin led a group of people to rush out of the embassy's back door in the rain of bullets that were gradually ringing. Fury and Gatler were guarding a wheeled chariot at the intersection not far away, and they used guns to fight back against the surrounding militants.
"Pearce, get in the car!"
Fury turned around and saw the group rushing towards them. He hurriedly opened the car door and stuffed Pierce and the rescued people into the car.
"Barton, Natasha, retreat!"
Fury issued a retreat order in the communicator.
The next second, a violent explosion broke out in the main building of the embassy. The rapid explosion almost destroyed the heavy weapons and wheeled vehicles of the insurgents. Even their temporary command center was sent to the sky by explosives.
In the dazzling firelight, Patton and Natasha drove a stolen off-road vehicle out of the bombed embassy.
After the two sides met, they rushed to the airport as fast as possible, where Agent Hand was responsible for picking up.
"Someone is chasing me from behind."
Gatler, who was driving, said to Fury:
"They have weapons, find a way to stop them."
"Merlin, knock off their tires!"
Fury handed a sniper rifle to Merlin, who opened the top cover of the wheeled chariot and set up the sniper rifle.
In the night wind mixed with the smell of gunpowder, Merlin's black hair was blown up, and he was holding a sniper rifle and didn't need a sight at all.
"Sorry, everyone"
As the dark perception spread, Merlin put the butt on his shoulder and he whispered.
The next moment, the trigger pulls.
"Bang"
A ray of flame spurted out of the muzzle, and the rebel driver driving the vehicle behind him was shot in the head.
"Bang"
The second shot was fired, and the tires of the truck full of militants exploded.
A car of people rushed into the river ditch on the road in screams. On the last pickup truck, a masked guy carrying an anti-tank rocket was just aiming, and Merlin pulled the trigger again with his finger.
It's like a sickle falling from death.
"Bang"
The headless body fell into the pickup truck's carriage. The anti-tank rocket that had been launched roared into the sky, like a ball of fireworks, illuminating the noisy night sky.
"Done."
Merlin sat back into the car, put the sniper rifle aside, then took off her hood and smiled at Chief Pierce in front of her.
He reached out and said to Pierce:
Chapter completed!
