181: Chapter 181 Canyon Cave

"Qin Mo, four guys ran away! Should we chase them?"

Platoon Leader Ji asked from the side.

Qin Mo scanned the corpses of the Beautiful Country people on the ground, thought for a moment, and said, "First, take their guns. It's not clear what's ahead, so be careful. Let's chase them!"

The two nodded, then slowly climbed down along the highest point of the canyon.

The canyon was in a mess, with corpses strewn about everywhere, blood staining the ground red, and the air filled with a pungent smell of blood.

The three of them were people who had seen their fair share of storms, so naturally, they showed no signs of discomfort.

They quickly grabbed a few guns and chased in the direction Tom and the others had left.

Meanwhile, the group from the Beautiful Country lingered for a long time, eventually choosing to continue moving forward.

After all, they had lost so many people, yet they hadn't even caught a glimpse of Qin Mo and the others.

What was even more terrifying was that the guns on their fallen comrades had likely already been taken by Qin Mo.

They were extremely puzzled now, wondering how Qin Mo and the others had discovered they had live ammunition; otherwise, they wouldn't have used bows and arrows to shoot them directly.

The group, with heavy expressions, continued to walk into the canyon. At first, the outer perimeter of the canyon was exceptionally wide, but in the end, the canyon visibly began to narrow.

From the initial three to five meters, it eventually narrowed to only allow one person to pass at a time.

"Damn it! What kind of crappy place is this? Why is it so narrow?"

A White man cursed.

Tom said with a gloomy expression, "Hurry up! Even if you have to crawl, find me an exit. Otherwise, if the Dragon Country people engage us in this terrain, we'll all become sitting ducks!"

"Tom, do you have any clue at all? Because of your suggestion, we lost over twenty people in one go!"

"You aren't a spy sent by the Dragon Country, are you?"

A Black man said with a grave expression.

"What did you say?"

Tom turned around instantly, grabbed the Black man by the throat with one hand, his eyes filled with fury.

The Black man immediately pointed his gun at Tom's forehead, his expression ferocious as he said, "I said! Are you a spy for the Dragon Country? Because of you, we've suffered heavy losses!"

Tom did not back down in the slightest, saying, "Listen to me! I have a deep hatred for the people of the Dragon Country; either they die, or I do! If you have any complaints, you can leave immediately, otherwise, shut your stinking mouth!"

"Alright, alright! We're all on the same side, so let's stop arguing."

Just then, the White man on the side immediately pulled the two apart.

"Hmph!"

The two glared fixedly at each other, clearly on the verge of fighting at the slightest disagreement.

Then, with a cold snort, they continued to walk forward.

Who knows how much time had passed.

The group finally reached the end of the exceptionally narrow passage.

It was an incredibly vast cave, dark, damp, and extremely spacious inside.

The ceiling of the cave was at least a hundred meters from the ground, and the walls of the ceiling were filled with stalactites, each one embedded in the ceiling like a sharp sword.

The surrounding ground was uneven, with bottomless pits everywhere, and the walls were of varying heights, with only one naturally formed staircase leading to the depths below.

The group from the Beautiful Country was stunned; no one had expected that the end of the canyon would connect to such a huge cave.

"To... Tom, what is this place? Why have I never heard anyone mention it?"

A White man asked, his face full of shock.

Tom shook his head.

"I don't know what this place is either; perhaps no one has ever been able to reach here before..."

A Black man standing nearby rolled his eyes around, then let out a malicious laugh.

"Tom, look at these stalactites above; they must be very valuable... If we..."

Upon hearing this, Tom's eyes lit up.

That's right! No one has ever discovered this place; it might not only contain endless ores and all sorts of strange treasures, but there might even be some kind of hidden fortune.

If they could obtain these things, why would they need to be soldiers? They naturally wouldn't care about those meager commissions!

However... these Dragon Country soldiers were a threat.

Thinking of this, Tom turned around and looked at everyone present with an expressionless face.

"Everyone, there might be some kind of treasure in this cave, but right now the Dragon Country people are chasing us from behind. I think we can ambush them here."

"After all, once the secret of this place is revealed by these Dragon Country people, let alone occupying this place, it would be difficult for us to even survive."

"That's right! Take out the Dragon Country people first!"

One person thought for a moment and chimed in.

The other two soldiers also nodded, agreeing with Tom's opinion.

The Black man asked, "How do we do it?"

Upon hearing this, Tom lowered his head to think for a moment, then began to size up the surrounding environment.

"This cave is very dark. When the enemies come in, they will have light. We are in the dark, and the enemy is in the light!"

"I propose we stay at the entrance of the cave. Once they step in, we immediately open fire and send them on their way!"

The few Beautiful Country soldiers nodded upon hearing this.

Afterwards, they followed Tom's plan and stationed themselves around the cave, their eyes fixed on the entrance, just waiting for someone to come in so they could deliver a fatal blow.

...

On the other side.

Qin Mo and the other two cautiously made their way into the canyon, not daring to be the least bit careless, so as to avoid being ambushed by the other side.

"Be careful! Keep an eye on your surroundings!"

Qin Mo reminded them as they walked.

Both of them nodded, secretly becoming vigilant in their hearts.

At this point, they had already reached the deepest part of Cannibal Island, where there were no longer any surveillance cameras.

...

"What's going on? Why has the signal for Qin Mo and the others disappeared?"

At this moment, inside the command post.

Everyone was in chaos, and the Operator stared at the computer screen in disbelief.

"Check it quickly! What exactly happened? Why did the signals for the three of them suddenly disappear!"

The Brigade Commander shouted with an extremely ugly expression.

Following the Brigade Commander's order, the sound of various keyboards clattering immediately erupted at the scene.

The group from the Beautiful Country on the side watched coldly from the sidelines.

The Navy Admiral revealed an insidious smile; in his view, Tom and the others should have already succeeded.

These few Dragon Country people were likely already dead, so how could they possibly find them?

"Report to the Admiral! The traces of Tom and the others have also disappeared!"

Just as the Beautiful Country Navy Admiral was secretly feeling smug, a shocked voice suddenly came from the side.

"What?"

The Navy Admiral's expression changed drastically.

Logically speaking, they should have wiped out the Dragon Country people and returned to report by now!

But why had their traces also disappeared?

Thinking of this, the Beautiful Country Navy Admiral immediately said, "Quick! Investigate the reason immediately!"

"Yes!"

The Captain on the side responded.
