- "What? Crossing the swamp at night?" Sergey's face turned pale and he shook his head, "This is not possible, boss, this is simply risking your life."
"Yeah, if that doesn't work, we'd better attack head-on. With our abilities, these people can't stop us." Yelena frowned.
"But we are outnumbered, and the target is still in their hands. If we fight hard, we will have casualties, and the militants in the town will be alert immediately. Once they take Alexei hostage, we will be very passive.
Although crossing the swamp may seem dangerous, the danger is foreseeable. If you can foresee it, you can avoid it. This is much safer than the uncertainty of a frontal armed conflict. Lin Rui whispered.
"I understand what you mean. However, it is not a wise thing to do nothing in the swamp. If there are a few more crocodiles, our team can be wiped out." Sergey shook his head.
"There are no crocodiles here, because this is related to the formation of this swamp. Because the swamp was originally an industrial area, the early pollution was serious, and the soil contained certain toxic substances. Let alone crocodiles, it was difficult for small fish and shrimps to survive. ." Jiang An whispered. "This is a dead swamp."
"Damn, the more you talk about it, the less I dare to do it." Sandro frowned.
"Don't worry, you will follow me when the time comes." Lin Rui whispered, "I will take you through."
"Okay, you are the boss. But I really just want to hold your thigh." Sergey whispered.
More than an hour later, they found the town. The whole town was like an island in a swamp. Except for one reinforced road. The rest of the place is almost submerged in water, which is why this place was abandoned. However, most of the buildings in the town are concrete buildings left over from the last century. They should have been an oil refinery or something, and now you can still see huge rusty oil tanks.
If you want to enter the town, you have to go through the entrance and exit roads, where several checkpoints have been set up. They are all guarded by armed personnel with live ammunition. If you want to rush in without alerting others, there is really not much possibility. Now it seems that Lin Rui's decision is wise. Crossing this swamp should be the only feasible way.
After the O2 team members got off the vehicle at a concealed location, they used shrub branches and camouflage nets to cover up the vehicle.
"Sandro, Sergey, Yelena, you guys stay and guard the car. Once we rescue the target, you must respond to us quickly." Lin Rui whispered.
¡°That¡¯s good, I really don¡¯t want to swim in the swamp.¡± Sergey said with a wry smile.
"How far is this swamp from the town?" Crazy Horse frowned while arranging his equipment.
"More than four kilometers." Snake Eyes put down the rangefinder in his hand.
"Damn it, we have to walk four kilometers in this mud?" Rose felt helpless, "It's like returning to South America again."
"Stop complaining and follow us." Lin Rui picked up his gun, turned around and walked out of the swamp. He used his saber to cut a tree branch and use it to search for solid ground or shallow muddy water. Because there are often pools formed by clusters of plants in swamps, these floating layers composed of broken leaves, lake grass, and soil have different thicknesses, strengths, and supporting powers. It is easy to cause accidents when walking on them.
"When passing, everyone should explore their own route and don't repeat my footsteps. Because you always step in the same place and add weight to a line, it is easy to be dangerous. When you must walk in a single line, try to keep the distance as much as possible. To prevent the gravity from being too concentrated, you should also try to make use of the raised mounds." Lin Rui whispered while walking in chest-deep mud.
"When you encounter a place with bright green plants, you should avoid it because it either has high humidity or a thin floating layer, and there is probably a mud pond underneath. You should try to avoid walking here to avoid excessive vibration.
Mire is usually found in swamps or wet, soft and muddy wilderness areas. You should be even more careful when you see flat black land with no grass growing on it. Also, keep an eye out for green sphagnum bogs. Sometimes, sphagnum moss covers the surface of the bog like a carpet, which is the most dangerous trap.
If you have to walk through muddy areas, you should walk along high ground where trees grow, or step on heather, because trees and heather grow on hard ground. If you are not sure which way to go, you can throw a few big rocks forward to see if the ground is hard; or stamp your feet hard. If the ground trembles, it is probably a quagmire and you should take a detour. "As Lin Rui walked, he looked back at the team members, and then continued forward after making sure that the team members were all following.
The swamp water was cold and had a putrid smell that was simply nauseating. Every time I step on it, black mud comes up.Gives off a more unpleasant smell.
"Damn it, after walking these four kilometers, I will definitely kill those guys from the secret society without firing a shot." Snake Eyes whispered. The muddy water had reached his shoulders, and it seemed to be soft under his feet. God knows if it will fall at any time.
"It's pretty good, at least it's not cold weather now. If you are in a vast swamp area, the biggest threat is wet and cold weather. If you get your clothes wet and exposed to the cold wind, you will easily freeze. ." Sergey whispered, "Fortunately this is not Russia."
The setting sun has withdrawn its last tentacles, and this land will quickly be swallowed up by darkness. The remaining ray of sunlight penetrated the misty air and splashed onto the humid land, and the surrounding visibility was further reduced.
"Hey, go that way." Crazy Horse whispered.
"What?" Lin Rui frowned.
"You heard me right. That's the Elephant Way." Crazy Horse has long-term experience in fighting in Africa, and he is sure of it.
"Xiang Dao?" Lin Rui frowned, "What is that?"
¡°In Africa, animals such as wolves, deer, and zebras often pass through swamps. Those green and flat turfs make them unable to extricate themselves once they step on them, and they become victims of the terrifying swamp.
Some African elephants often pass through swamps that look green on the surface, but are actually deep mire beneath the thin surface. But what's surprising is that the elephants, despite their huge bodies, rarely get stuck in the swamp. They walked leisurely through the swamps.
Because elephants have their own road signs when passing through these terrible swamps. These road signs are small bushes on the swamp. Every group of elephants must walk along these bushes when crossing the swamp, and when passing through the bushes, the elephants must use their powerful trunks to break off the branches and leaves on one side of the bushes little by little. and take off.
Every herd of elephants is like this, so over time, many dangerous swamps have such a phenomenon: there is a line of trees across the swamp. They are often leafy on one side, and bare on the other side, with almost no branches. Walking through the woods like this often avoids many dangerous quagmires and leads to a peaceful walk through the swamp. This is the Elephant Way, the way of the elephant. Crazy Horse whispered.
