But intuition told Lin Feiyu that it could never be a human being. At first glance, the monster looks like a black cheetah, with its teeth and claws open, crouching on the roof of the truck cab; upon closer inspection, it is really a black cheetah—at least Lin Feiyu thinks it should be some kind of cat. The long, horsewhip-like tail stands up high and swings slightly behind it, just like the naughty kitten in the neighbor's house. But why so tense?If it's just a black cheetah? Lin Feiyu, who was squatting in the bushes, held his breath, his eyes widened, and he didn't dare to move.In the dark, it seemed that someone was reminding him that this black guy lying on the roof of the car was extremely dangerous, as long as he revealed his position—even if it was only for a moment, his life would be in danger.

The panther moved its forelegs and moved towards the side of the cab.The man sitting in front of the steering wheel didn't notice it at all, he was still smoking his cigarette, staring straight ahead, looking bored. At the moment when the white horse passed by, the black panther launched a surprise attack. It stretched out its sharp claws, shattered the window glass, grabbed the driver's face, and dragged him out of the car. The strength of this leopard far exceeded Lin Feiyu's understanding of "feline animals". Although the driver struggled desperately with his legs and feet shaking, he couldn't shake the monster's wrist that was tightly clutching his cheek.

Lin Feiyu moved his body carefully so that he was facing the back of the monster.With the help of the faint light source on the truck, he was just able to see the outline of the ghostly thing—— It was indeed a "ghost thing", a strange creature that Lin Feiyu had never seen or even heard of. It has a cat-like long tail, but it has a human-like figure, to be precise, a "woman" figure-a wide pelvis, a slender and elegant waist, slender and healthy legs, and the most beautiful. Intuitively, the pair of breasts are very plump even if the edges can only be seen from the side.Lin Feiyu felt that if this was really a "woman", then she could support herself by being a model, and there was no need to go to the jungle to play tricks.

Holding the driver, the monster paused for a few seconds, then suddenly changed into a "handshake" posture, using its palm to grab the back of the prey's head. "Save—" Before the poor man could finish his sentence, he was hit hard on the roof of the truck, and immediately lost consciousness, and his body collapsed like a soft noodle. Lin Feiyu, who witnessed the hunt with his own eyes, suddenly felt a chill run up his spine. He swallowed hard, lowered his forehead slightly, pulled the bolt of the Type 95 gun in his hand, and let out a weak "click". Almost at the same instant, the monster's slender black tail waved twice in the air, with the tip raised high, fixed on the bushes where Lin Feiyu was hiding.

"No way..." As soon as he was about to raise his gun to shoot, the monster jumped in front of him—so fast that he didn't even have a chance to blink. Almost just relying on instinct, Lin Feiyu crossed the rifle to block, and the monster's powerful claws pressed on the butt of the gun, throwing him to the ground forcefully, and then made another claw, almost hitting the door in the face. Lin Feiyu vaguely noticed that although the opponent's strength was amazing, he was not heavy, so he quickly stretched out his right foot, kicked the monster's lower abdomen, and violently lifted his hands holding the gun upwards.

The monster may have hesitated for a moment, and was turned over without resistance.But before it touched the ground, it had already adjusted its posture and landed on all fours.At the same time that Lin Feiyu carp stood up straight, its roundabout kick hit the barrel of the Type 95 assault rifle, knocking Lin Feiyu back, and the gun was also kicked aside, hitting the tree heavily. It was only at this moment that Lin Feiyu could see the monster's face clearly - it had a sharp and powerful jaw, two "eyes" one big and one small glowed with faint green light, and there was no mouth, replaced by a row of teeth. Its silver livery is both creepy and comical.

After seeing it clearly, Lin Feiyu was not as scared as before—he was sure that this hideous face did not belong to any "feline animal", but a "helmet", a "helmet" shining with leather luster. helmet". "The equipment is good..." Lin Feiyu calmly took out a fruit knife from his windbreaker, and twirled it twice in his hand—with such a little guy for peeling pears, his chances of winning against the powerful enemy in front of him were probably slim, but Lin Feiyu still bent down and opened it. Fighting style, looks like a fearless look. As long as the opponent is human, he always has a chance.

The cat-shaped monster straightened up, revealing a more pronounced female silhouette.It also made Lin Feiyu more convinced that the strange guy with his tail in front of him was actually a woman, a ruthless, possibly violent female devil in a black coat. "Sorry, ma'am, there is no masquerade here tonight," Lin Feiyu said with a calm smile, "And you also found the wrong partner—I can't dance." Before the words fell, the other party suddenly stepped forward and launched a frontal attack. Under the cover of the night, it moved strangely and covertly, knocking down the dagger in Lin Feiyu's hand with lightning speed.Surprised, Lin Feiyu jumped back to dodge, but was grabbed by the neck, the whole person was lifted into the air, then fell heavily, and finally pinned firmly to the ground.

The victory and defeat are immediately apparent - so fast that Lin Feiyu, who has always beaten others, can't believe it. The monster's hands were as strong as iron pincers, and there seemed to be sharp claws attached to the back of the hands, which directly pressed against Lin Feiyu's Adam's apple, making him dare not move. "You are using a QBZ95 assault rifle..." A voice like a bus stop announcer came from the monster's helmet, indifferent and without any emotion: "Are you a Chinese marine?" It's not pleasant to say the least. But it is standard American English, "Quickly answer! Otherwise, I will send you to death immediately!"

Lin Feiyu frowned slightly, thought for a while, then nodded slowly: "1st Marine Division, 1st Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Regiment, Corporal, Lin Feiyu." "Where's your team?" "We..." Lin Feiyu thought for a moment: "We were attacked and we were all scattered." The monster stretched out his right hand, and lightly brushed Lin Feiyu's side hair: "The Chinese army allows this kind of long hair? And wearing a windbreaker? Huh?" Lin Feiyu thought to himself—this unlucky hairstyle should be changed, he gave a wry smile: "I have someone above me."

The other party may have understood, or maybe they didn't understand at all, anyway, it was prevaricated, it nodded, and slowly let go of Lin Feiyu's neck. Just as Lin Feiyu was able to turn his head, two lines of small white characters on the chest of the "monster" flashed before his eyes: "USAF" - Lin Feiyu believes that this should be the abbreviation of the United States Air Force, but the other four letters next to it confuse him: "CATS?" Lin Feiyu squinted his eyes: "Cats?" The other party looked down at his chest, looking quite annoyed: "Ha! These unscrupulous arms dealers really printed their trademarks." "Are you the U.S. military?" Lin Feiyu, who was still "sitting" on the ground, smiled and said, "There are really U.S. troops on this broken island?" The monster took a step back, straightened his waist, then stretched out his right hand towards Lin Feiyu, pulling him up from the ground.While dusting off his windbreaker, Lin Feiyu looked at the "U.S. Army" in front of him - she was about 1.60 meters tall, with a vigorous figure and well-proportioned body, obviously she had exercised very well. After a soft crisp sound, her helmet tilted up slightly, a crack appeared at the neck, and then it was slowly lifted upwards, and it was placed on the back, between the two shoulder blades. In front of Lin Feiyu is a young and distinctive face—smooth bronze skin, neat short chestnut hair, a straight little nose, plump and sexy lips...these features of different national styles are mixed together, and it is amazing Carved on a delicate melon-seeded face, it looks so just right. The only small incongruity is the red phoenix eyes under the pair of hanging eyebrows—the brown pupils are shining with a fierce light, as if they are trying to swallow people alive. "You can call me Aslan," the woman said coldly, "United States of America, Technical Sergeant, Air Force Special Operations Brigade, Aslan." Compared with the electronic sound generator on the helmet, her own voice is obviously much better. "Are you from AFSOC?" Lin Feiyu raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Then the name 'Aslang' should be the code name?" "Ah," the corner of the other party's mouth slightly raised, with a half-smile: "That's the cat's name." "That's why you have 'CATS' printed on your chest?" Lin Feiyu shook his head: "It's not such a coincidence." "...So, Chinese," the woman suddenly put on a straight face: "In accordance with the principle of open and equal international exchanges, you ask a question, I ask a question, how about it?" "It's exactly what I want!" Lin Feiyu nodded his fingers seriously: "Ladies first, let's start with you." There was a burst of joy in his heart - this kind of questioning method is simply the wish for a "professional liar" who has long been accustomed to talking nonsense. But this time, Lin Feiyu miscalculated. Aslan turned around, turned his back to him, and snapped his fingers smartly: "I don't have anything to ask, Chinese people, just leave now. I suggest you find a way to hide in the town. There are many of your compatriots there. As long as you don't bring guns, you will definitely not be found if you sneak in. .” After saying that, Aslan bent down and landed on all fours, like a compressed spring—it looked like he was about to jump forward. Lin Feiyu understood that he only had one chance in his life to keep the strange woman in front of him - now. "Electronic assault tactical system." Lin Feiyu didn't rush, and at the moment when Asilang was about to jump away with all his strength, he uttered a phrase that sounded very awkward and unfamiliar. "You..." Aslan was taken aback, and slowly turned his head away: "...What did you say?" "It was first proposed by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld in 2006," Lin Feiyu said casually, as if talking to himself, "As an important part of the 'Future Infantry Combat Concept', two DARPA project teams began to work on it." Transform the 'Land Warriors' - the 'Second Generation Digital Combat System' that is currently being trialled by the 13th Mechanized Infantry Regiment." This series of monologues mixed with technical terms and military jargon sounds like tongue twisters. It is not only difficult to understand but also extremely complicated. It is not easy to understand the meaning of each word. But apparently, Aslan understood—— She straightened up and turned around slowly. "High concealment, high maneuverability, high survivability, and independent combat capability—" Lin Feiyu continued blankly: "This cutting-edge product, which was originally intended to be supplied to the SEALs, was ultimately due to cost and design concepts. It has not been put into mass production and use. However, its improvement has not been interrupted until the end of 2011. The Delta Special Forces received the first finished product and officially named it 'Electronic Assault Tactical System', which is..." He was silent for half a second, and then said word by word: "CATS." Aslan stood still in front of Lin Feiyu, staring at the man who suddenly calmed down with stern eyes. "You don't want to ask me questions because you think you know me well enough." Lin Feiyu paused for a while, then pointed at Aslan: "I believe that based on the information you have, you must know why the Chinese Marine Corps It will appear on Paget Island, our number, equipment, supplies, officers leading the team, and details of the mission... These are almost semi-public information, and basically cannot be hidden from the eyes of the CIA. The information made a judgment on me, thinking that I am just an ordinary soldier who can neither harm anyone nor help, and it is a blessing to be able to save my own life." "Aha..." Aslan nodded, also smiling slightly, but there was an extra murderous look on his brows: "You really are an unpleasant guy..." "No way," Lin Feiyu shrugged, "I've been hated since I was a child." "Very good..." Aslan clenched his fists and made a "creaking" friction sound: "Then bad boy, tell me, who are you?" "It means you are willing to start asking?" Lin Feiyu tilted his head: "The rule is still one for each person, right?" "...Yes." Aslan nodded impatiently: "Tell me, who are you?" "People's Liberation Army Navy, 1st Marine Division, 1st Company, 1st Battalion, Corporal..." Lin Feiyu paused: "Lin Feiyu." Aslan snorted disdainfully, showing an expression of "I knew you would answer like this". "Then it's time for me to ask, Aslan, no, Aslan," Lin Feiyu touched his chin: "...Uh, your name is Aslan, right?" The woman narrowed her eyes: "Is this a problem?" "Oh, of course," Lin Feiyu smiled generously, "Forget it." "...My name is Aslan." The other party squinted at Lin Feiyu, and asked after a few seconds: "As a marine corporal, how could you know 'CATS'?" "I found it on WikiLeaks. What are your measurements?" An unreasonable weirdo! ——Aslan darkened his face, obviously a little annoyed: "...Are you testing my patience?" "Hmm..." Lin Feiyu frowned: "Is my answer not to your liking, or is the question not good enough?" "34, 25, 33." Aslan blurted out, "Tell me the external number of your unit." Lin Feiyu also responded fluently: "83417." It's a pity that this random number is wrong, and what's more unfortunate is that Aslan, who is backed by the CIA, knows the answer. "As a soldier, you can't get this wrong," Aslan said with a sneer, "Do you need me to tell you the correct number?" What a tricky question!Lin Feiyu had to re-examine the intellectual level of the girl in front of her - she was not the kind of special soldier with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, and she was much more cunning than she appeared on the surface. "No need," he sighed lightly: "...I admit that I'm not a marine, well, I'm just an ordinary Chinese tourist." Aslan waved his hand: "I don't care who you are, Chinese, I know you must have a difficult background, and I believe that you will never tell me the truth, I just hope you don't get in my way, or do something ...behavior that would make me uncomfortable," she stretched out her right hand to Lin Feiyu, and a sharp steel claw popped out from behind her outstretched five fingers, "There is no witness on this island, and I won't tear you into pieces." It will cause any international disputes, please don't make fun of yourself." Lin Feiyu showed no fear, but smiled heartily: "There is an old saying in China, 'We are both fallen in the end of the world, why should we meet each other before', it doesn't matter if you don't know me, it doesn't matter if you don't like me, we are not On a blind date, of course there is no need to know each other—” He suddenly put away his smile, and changed the topic: "But that doesn't stop us from taking advantage of each other." "Use?" Aslan flicked his hair, feeling very ridiculous at the proposal of the Chinese man in front of him: "Let's hear it, what's worth taking advantage of you?" She didn't know that she had already started to fall into the "conversation trap" that Lin Feiyu was good at step by step. "Think about it, Miss Aslan." Lin Feiyu changed his previous cynical attitude: "This island is called 'Pegget', right?" "so what?" "Have you ever heard the name 'Pegett' before? Or, in your high school geography class?" Aslan was silent for a moment: "No." "It is such a small place with no reputation, but it has gathered so many natural and man-made disasters - typhoons, riots, stranded tourists, marines... and armed elements of unknown origin, and now they have appeared again A U.S. military—" Lin Feiyu pointed to Aslan, and then pointed to himself: "Don't you think this is really a coincidence?" "I heard that Chinese people are very reserved," Aslan said coldly, "but personally, I hate going around in circles." "Then let me clarify—" Lin Feiyu took a step forward: "Everything happens for a reason. I don't know why the Americans came to Paget, but since you sent special forces, you even sent CATS which is still in the test , I guess that must be a very great mission, and those mad dogs armed to the teeth that appeared on this island must also be related to this mission." A very reasonable inference, but this time Lin Feiyu was wrong again - at least half of it. "Unfortunately, we didn't come to fight terrorists." Aslan shook his head: "We don't even know that these people are on the island, who they are, where they come from... we don't know anything." Lin Feiyu was stunned for a few seconds: "This is not good news... In other words, we are fighting against a completely unfamiliar opponent..." He nodded slightly: "Well, at least they didn't come to help the Pagets stage a coup." "These people are very disciplined and very tight-lipped." Aslan raised his finger to the truck behind him: "I have already arrested three of them, but I didn't ask any valuable information, I just kept talking about them. Being hired and knowing nothing else... blah blah blah." "You arrested three people?" Lin Feiyu suddenly remembered what the three black-clothed militants who chased and killed him said before - "Besides, the jungle is not safe", probably referring to Aslan? "They are all small people, not a big fish." "They said they were hired? By whom?" 'knight. Aslan shrugged, "I only revealed the title, and didn't say whether it was a person or an organization." "Knight" is obviously not a personal name, it symbolizes many meanings, it can be a code name, a password, a trademark, a password, of course, it can also be a "title". "Let me confess first, Aslan," Lin Feiyu said solemnly after careful consideration: "These mercenaries of the 'Knight' have trapped tourists on the island, blocked the port and beach, interfered with radio communications, and wiped out the island's tourists. Almost an entire company of Marines. They were well equipped and well trained, and I was alone, and I needed help, and it was imminent—the lives of my fellow men were at stake, and I had to do something." "Ha! That's the attitude you should have in international negotiations!" Aslan said with a smile, "Then let me explain it clearly. There are 6 special forces and technical non-commissioned officers who parachuted with me to Paget Island. I was ambushed as soon as I got down, and only I, wearing CATS individual armor, escaped by chance..." She paused, looking very discouraged: "Not only am I alone now, but I have also lost contact with the headquarters, and no one told me I didn’t even know what I was going to do with the specific details of the mission, and I didn’t bring out any special weapons, equipment or supplies, and I didn’t even have an MRE.” Intuition reminded Lin Feiyu that what the girl said was not all the truth, but now is not the time to care about these things. "Lonely men and widows..." Lin Feiyu sighed in Chinese, "It would be nice if this was a date." Aslan frowned: "What did you say?" "I mean, now we can work together. At the very least, we should find that guy named 'Knight', you and I have some... Xiao Qiu wants to settle with him, right?" Before Aslan could respond, a hurried human voice suddenly came from the truck behind him, and Lin Feiyu quickly lowered his head and buried himself among the weeds and bushes.With a casual glance, he found that Aslan had long since disappeared, just like a kitten that found its prey, it quietly fled into the darkness and hid somewhere. Two mercenaries in peaked caps and black uniforms stayed in front of the truck for a while. Their hands holding rifles were trembling slightly, and their faces were pale, as if they had been frightened. At first, Lin Feiyu thought that the two of them were nervous and scared because they saw the tragic death of their comrades beside the truck, but he soon noticed that there was a large pool of blood on the uniform of one of the mercenaries—although it looked shocking. , but obviously does not belong to him—judging from the exaggerated blood volume, the poor man who bleeds must have died. "Where's Ga-Jar?" The mercenary's voice became a little unnatural: "Where is he? Where is he? He agreed to come and pick us up!" His companion half-kneeled on the ground, and gently turned the truck driver who was lying on the ground and out of breath with his hands, with a serious voice: "This is Gal." "Oh no! My God! He...he was also..." "No, it's not like that," the mercenary who didn't have blood stains on his body seemed much calmer: "The body is intact, so it shouldn't be attacked by 'that thing'." "Whatever! Hurry up!" The man just now became agitated suddenly: "Let's drive out of here immediately!" He turned his head and looked behind him for a few seconds, "...I think it is coming! Look! Just Over there! Do you see red?" "Don't scare yourself! Locke, 'Sophia's order is to wait for reinforcements and catch it when Team H arrives." "Reinforcement? Don't you understand? We're all going to die here! That must be the secret weapon of the Chinese! ... No, I'm going back... I'm going home soon!" This mercenary named "Lock" seemed to have been greatly stimulated, trembling and hysterical: "My God! It's coming! Can you feel it? It's coming towards us!" As he said that, he actually dropped the G36 assault rifle in his hand, turned around and ran along the road with his head buried in his head. "Lock! Stop! Locke! You..." The companion sighed heavily: "...Oh, this coward..." He pulled up the belt, put his rifle on his shoulder, picked up the G36 that Locke left behind, and was about to get up and chase. "Well!" Lin Feiyu, who came up from behind quietly, shot out suddenly, covered his mouth, knocked him back, and fell to the ground hard. The mercenary was unprepared, lost consciousness immediately, and passed out.At the same time, Aslan, who didn't know where he was hiding, jumped out of the darkness, threw Locke who was running ahead, clamped the back of his head, and pressed the whole person to the ground. "No! Don't! Don't kill me!" He cried out hoarsely, his face was flushed, and he wiped his mouth with dirt and gravel, and his voice became like he was crying: "Please! Don't kill me! No! No!" Lin Feiyu took off the G36 assault rifle from the unconscious man, held it in his arms, and walked quickly to Aslan's side. "You should discuss it with me before making a move." Lin Feiyu complained a bit: "Don't act without authorization." "You didn't discuss it with me, did you?" Aslang said without showing any weakness, "But as far as an 'ordinary Chinese tourist' is concerned, your skills are not bad." "Take each other...no matter what you want to ask," Lin Feiyu kicked Locke's ass: "It's best to hurry up, they are equipped with life indicators, and someone will come to trouble us soon. " Aslan made a move that surprised Lin Feiyu—she suddenly popped out the steel claws on the back of her hand, grabbed Locke's head, twisted it slightly to the side, and easily broke his neck. "There's nothing to ask." Aslan straightened his waist and said coldly, "Looking at his virtue, he probably doesn't know anything." "Hey, hey, what are you doing?" Lin Feiyu said puzzledly, "I thought the U.S. military doesn't kill prisoners anymore!" "They didn't take any prisoners." Aslan stared viciously at the corpse on the ground: "My comrades raised their hands, but only received bullets to their foreheads... I don't have to, and I won't show mercy to them. " Lin Feiyu couldn't help worrying about Chen Yang and his company of marines after this talk—couldn't they also be murdered? "Okay, tourist, you now..." "My name is Lin Feiyu." "...Ah, what a mouthful. Yu, where are you going now?" "Meaning you agree to cooperate with me?" Aslan giggled treacherously: "That depends on whether your cooperation project can arouse my interest." Lin Feiyu understood that the other party was testing him, and he had already prepared a perfect set of rhetoric: "I'm here to find a middle-aged man named 'Wang Chaoxing'..." Lin Feiyu hesitated for a few seconds, pretending to want to keep it a secret, but said: "He is a senior employee of a Chinese mining company. The business representative, to put it simply, he is not here for tourism, but to sign a secret trade agreement with the Paget Mine on behalf of the Chinese side." Aslan nodded: "Hmm... a VIP?" "That's right, my mission is to find him and escort him back to the country." This is of course not the truth, but Lin Feiyu's sincere expression and tone are very convincing.What's more, there have long been rumors in the world that Chinese companies are going to acquire the Peget Island mine, and Aslan feels that he has no reason to doubt it—at least not yet. "Then he should stay in the town with other Chinese tourists." Aslang paused: "...I can take you there." "Then what about your mission?" Lin Feiyu asked, "You didn't come to Paget Island for Sino-US cooperation, did you?" "I lost intelligence support and some... key equipment, basically I can't continue the mission..." Aslan shook his head: "And there are so many mercenaries with live ammunition on the island, it is difficult for me to Make a difference, how much you can be a sandbag to help me block bullets." "Aren't you afraid of exposing too much CATS information to me, a 'Chinese tourist'?" "Oh, that's okay." Aslan, who had already walked a few steps, turned his head, showing an unpredictable cat-like expression: "After I'm done, I can kill you to silence you." For some reason, Lin Feiyu began to like this woman named Aslan—— Maybe it's because in some respects, she really resembles herself.
