Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 86 The Impending Gunfight

The patrol route was boring and tedious; if it weren't for the wild animals that occasionally popped out, the team members felt they would definitely go crazy.

I don't know who started humming an unnamed tune first, but then everyone joined in.

A melodious tune drifted through the convoy, sounding somewhat desolate against the backdrop of the vast wilderness.

"parking!"

Badoje, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked Sonamdar to stop the car.

As a veteran with extensive experience in wilderness survival, Badoje was qualified to have Deputy Secretary Sonamda drive him in the wild, and the two were also close friends with no complicated relationship.

"what have you found?"

Seeing his friend's pale face, Sonamda's heart began to pound; he thought they had encountered poachers.

Although he was prepared to fight the poaching gang, this did not conflict with his fear.

When asked by his friend, Badoje did not offer any explanation.

He reached out and picked up the walkie-talkie: "No one should get out of the car. Wait for my message."

After saying that, Badoje opened the car door, but was stopped by Sonamda as he turned around.

“Badoje, what exactly have you discovered? I believe I, as the nominal leader of the patrol team, am qualified to know.”

Sonamda said seriously.

If a friend discovers something dangerous, he has a duty to prevent that friend from getting off the vehicle.

These new recruits still need the guidance of veteran Badojie. If something happens to Badojie, they will be completely in the dark in the reserve and there is a high probability that something bad will happen to them.

Although they were all local residents, they only knew how to get around and had virtually no experience in wilderness survival.

If something were to happen to Badoje, a veteran well-versed in wilderness survival, Sonamda couldn't imagine how his group would carry out their next patrol mission.

"Don't worry, it's nothing."

"I only found the carcass of a Tibetan antelope. I want to go down and see if I can find any useful information."

Badoje spoke to Sonamda and gently patted the hand that was gripping his clothes, signaling the owner of the hand to let go.

Sonam stared intently at Badoje's face, trying to glean something from his expression.

He failed, but Badoje remained calm, without a trace of emotion, except for his clear and bright eyes.

"Okay, be careful yourself."

Sonamda reminded his friend to be careful.

"Don't worry, I may not have other skills, but I do have ways to save my life."

After saying that, Badorje got out of the car and walked toward the Tibetan antelope carcass he had discovered.

This is a Tibetan antelope that has been skinned and decapitated. Judging from the degree of drying of the meat, it was killed no more than an hour ago.

However, in the vast wilderness, after losing track of a target for more than an hour, it is too difficult to track it back.

"Hopefully we can find something useful around here."

Badoje looked at the setting sun with deep concern.

Poaching gangs are so brazen these days. Keep in mind that if you go another 20 kilometers or so, you'll reach the Armed Police border post.

If we don't catch these people, who knows what kind of disaster the reserve will be in!
Around the carcass of the Tibetan antelope, Badoje began to carefully search for clues.

Sometimes he would lie on the ground rummaging through weeds, and sometimes he would stare at a collapsed patch of grass, lost in thought.

"found it!"

Persistence pays off; after tireless efforts, Baduojie finally found a clue: footprints. Judging from the number, there should be three to five people.

One of the men was wearing the same shoes as him, both were Liberation brand leather boots, and the pattern on the soles was all too familiar to Baduojie.

"We've found a clue. What's next? You, as the team leader, need to decide."

After getting into the vehicle, Badoje told Sonamda about his discovery and then waited for the captain to give orders.

Now that we've found this group, how could we possibly let them go so easily?
With so many of us, I refuse to believe we can't catch them!

After careful consideration, Sonamda decided to lead the patrol team to pursue the poaching gang.

"Okay, I'll give you directions, you drive."

The patrol team followed the trail left by the poaching gang and drove after them.

On the other side, Scarface and his henchmen took the highway, drove to their temporary lodging location, put down their goods, and then immediately entered the protected area.

His goal was clear throughout the journey; he had obviously set his sights on another herd of Tibetan antelopes.

"Notify the rest of the crew to gather at Dacuo Lake."

The long-haired man was somewhat taken aback by the order from the scarred man, as he knew that his boss usually wouldn't call for his underlings to assemble.

Even when dealing with the double-crossing last time, he did it all by himself. This time, he's unusually gathering all his underlings. Looks like he's planning something big.

The long-haired man was taken aback, but his hands moved swiftly.

He drove with one hand, and with the other hand, he took out a satellite phone from the glove compartment, which had probably been through several hands, and began to notify the rest of the crew one by one.

The wound on the back of his hand still throbbed, constantly reminding the long-haired man not to question the scarred man's decision.

This has led to him not daring to be too reckless, even if he has the urge to cheat others.

The timing isn't right yet.

The long-haired man wanted to extract information about the largest Tibetan antelope herd that the scarred man knew, and then he would kill him.

Unfortunately, Scarface was unwilling to say much about Tibetan antelopes once the topic came up.

The carcass of the Tibetan antelope that the patrol team encountered earlier was killed by another of Scarface's men.

Upon receiving the message from his elder brother Scarface, he immediately took half a cartload of skinned animals and headed to Dacuo Lake.

This scene was happening simultaneously in various parts of the reserve.

Scarface wielded immense power, with five or six of his men helping him "procure goods" throughout the entire reserve.

And a single employee might be in charge of anywhere from one or two to dozens of subordinates.

Therefore, Scarface was able to recall dozens of his brave and daring subordinates in a short period of time.

This is also why no one dares to mess with Scarface in this area. He is ruthless, which is one aspect, but more importantly, he has many followers and is familiar with the roads in the protected area.

No one would want to offend such a ruthless person unless they were absolutely certain they could catch Scarface.

Dacuo Lake is located in the western part of the reserve. It is the reserve's largest water source and a favorite gathering place for wild animals.

Scarface gathered everyone at Dacuo Lake because the large Tibetan antelope herd he had been eyeing would be heading there soon.

With so many goods, he and the long-haired man were clearly overwhelmed and needed to gather more people to handle it.

Changning, the patrol team, and the poaching gang all set off for Dacuo Lake at the same time.

A small-to-medium scale gunfight is about to break out here, and as a third-party force, Chang Ning alone will bring the biggest variable to this gunfight.

At this moment, the setting sun on the horizon dyed the clouds orange-red, and painted the earth red.
