156: If you're satisfied with Chapter 156, please remember to give it a five-star rating!

"Enemy attack! Take cover!"

The officer roared, and all the soldiers reacted instantly, seeking cover as their gun barrels were uniformly aimed at the surrounding dense forest.

However, the surroundings were deathly silent; not even a bird's call could be heard.

The faces of the two guides instantly turned ghastly pale.

They exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with extreme fear.

This was the method of the jungle's top hunter: silent, soundless, and lethal in a single strike.

They realized that the person they were tracking this time was not some ordinary deserter at all, but a... monster!

Both of them made a decision almost simultaneously.

Run!

They exchanged a look, turned abruptly, and sprinted away in two different directions.

"Stop!" the officer roared in exasperation.

But the two guides were no longer listening to him; saving their own lives was paramount.

"Bang! Bang!"

The officer raised his hand without hesitation and fired two shots.

The two guides were killed on the spot.

What they didn't know was that, on a treetop not far away, Qin Feng was watching all of this coldly through his sniper scope.

"In-fighting? Not bad, that saved me two bullets."

He put away his sniper rifle and patted Lanna beside him.

"Let's go, my personal property. The appetizer before the main course is over."

"Next, it's time for the main course."

...

Without those two guides, the pursuit squad from Yang Country significantly slowed down their advance.

That officer was clearly a tough character; after the initial panic, he quickly steadied his footing.

"Everyone, tighten the formation! Groups of three, advance with alternating cover!"

"Snipers, seize the high ground! Fire teams, be ready to support at any time!"

"Communications officer, contact headquarters immediately, report our coordinates, and request support at any time."

Orders were issued one by one, clear and decisive.

The squad began building a temporary defensive position on the spot, with several soldiers skillfully cutting down surrounding trees to create simple obstacles.

They stopped pursuing and chose to hold their ground while waiting for reinforcements.

"Heh, want to play turtle?"

In the distance, Qin Feng, through the perspective of the bionic spider, took in everything, a sneer of disdain curling at the corner of his mouth.

Too naive.

In this Death Swamp, stopping is equivalent to death.

"Chef, they've stopped moving, what should we do?" Lanna asked somewhat anxiously.

"If they don't move, then we will." Qin Feng revealed a mischievous smile.

He wished these guys wouldn't move, giving himself a little more time to get away.

The next second, he pulled Lanna and snuck through a patch of dense forest, changing direction to continue fleeing.

Of course, he didn't forget to summon the "Ghost" at a critical moment, heading towards the pursuing Yang Country squad behind them.

This time, the Ghost had a waterproof Bluetooth speaker hanging on it.

It was something Qin Feng had "borrowed" from the smugglers' boat; he originally intended it for entertainment, but now it was just right to let those guys hear something.

The next second.

"The vast horizon is my love, flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green mountains..."

The loud and rhythmic singing instantly broke the deathly silence of the swamp.

That addictive melody, paired with the lead singer's powerful voice, appeared exceptionally abrupt and particularly... eerie in this gloomy and terrifying environment.

All the soldiers in the Yang Country squad were stunned.

They looked at each other, as if they had heard some ultimate philosophy.

Even the officer who had been keeping a straight face couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

What the hell is this?

Is it the enemy's psychological warfare?

This is too f*cking... unsportsmanlike!

"Shut up! Everyone shut up!"

The officer felt his brain was about to be brainwashed by this addictive song, and he roared angrily.

"Find the source of the sound! Shoot it down for me!"

Several soldiers immediately raised their guns and rushed in the direction the sound was coming from.

And this was exactly the result Qin Feng wanted.

Take advantage of their chaos to take their lives!

Just at the moment those soldiers left the position.

"Puff!"

The ground beneath one of them suddenly gave way.

He didn't even have time to let out a cry of surprise before he was instantly swallowed by the mud beneath his feet.

It's a swamp!

"Help! Save me!"

The companion next to him was scared out of his wits; just as he reached out to pull him, he discovered that his own feet were also starting to sink uncontrollably.

Panic spread rapidly, like a plague.

Qin Feng did not take the opportunity to shoot.

What he wanted was not simple slaughter.

What he wanted was to psychologically and completely destroy the will of this squad.

He controlled the Ghost and changed the song.

"You are the most beautiful cloud on my horizon, let me keep you with all my heart..."

The singing became more high-pitched, and also more... mocking.

"Ah! My leg!"

"Leeches! So many leeches!"

"Snakes! There are snakes!"

Screams rose and fell one after another.

For those soldiers who left the position, every step could potentially trigger a deadly trap.

And these traps were inherent to this swamp.

All Qin Feng did was use a very flashy folk song to lead them into these traps.

Inside the position, the officer's eyes were already red.

He watched his subordinates fall one by one, yet he was powerless to do anything; that frustration and anger drove him almost to madness.

"Fire! Fire at the source of the sound!" he screamed hysterically.

"Da da da da!"

The heavy machine gun began to roar, and bullets poured into the sky like raindrops.

However, the Ghost's speed was too fast, and its target was too agile; using the natural swamp forest as a barrier, it was simply impossible to hit.

Instead, the intense gunfire disturbed the true "masters" of this area.

"Roar—!"

A low, violent-sounding roar came from the murky waters not far away.

Immediately after, hideous crocodile heads slowly emerged from the water surface.

The swamp feast has officially begun!

"Crocodiles! It's a pack of crocodiles!"

A soldier noticed the anomaly in the water and let out a desperate scream.

The officer's face instantly turned pale.

He finally understood.

From the very beginning, they had fallen into the opponent's trap.

That terrifying opponent had been toying with them all along.

He was using the entire swamp to hunt them down!

"Retreat! Everyone, rally to me, prepare to retreat!"

The officer made a prompt decision and issued the order to retreat.

If they didn't leave now, they would all be finished here.

However, it was already too late to leave.

Dozens of giant crocodiles, like arrows released from a bow, lunged out of the water and launched a death charge at the soldiers on the shore.

For a moment, screams... roars... gunfire... the sound of flesh being torn apart, all mixed and intertwined together.

Although Lanna didn't see this scene with her own eyes, listening to the incessant gunfire behind her.

She could imagine that this was yet another of the Chef's methods.

She really couldn't understand how the Chef managed to do all this.

This Long Country man is really super terrifying!

Qin Feng seemed to sense her gaze, turned his head, and grinned at her.

"Am I not handsome?"

"If you are satisfied, remember to give a five-star review."

"Pah!" Lanna rolled her eyes at him, her heart pounding like a deer.

This man is really too shameless!
