Chapter 552 - Fox Tail.



Chapter 552: Fox Tail.

The remaining six SEAL Team members searched around crazily for the villagers. With their night vision goggles, they were turned into hunters in the night. And the villagers who thought they had the cover of the night to aid their hiding were easily found and shot.

Half an hour later, the villagers’ bodies lay littered all over the ground. Driven by anger, these SEALs shot them indiscriminately, they were shot at least twice, and some were even shot more than a dozen times. The bodies turned into bloody meat sieves.

Rice looked at the bodies of these villagers with still trembling eyes. He still remembered that these villagers were very warm and friendly earlier in the days, but now, it was really ironic. It was not just him, but Powell, Mina and the other three SEALs also came to this realization. They might be able to accept the cruelty of killing people, but they absolutely could not condone the inhumane act of cannibalism.

Powell closed his eyes in pain, and then let out a long turbid breath, “Our comrades, Hebrew and Adolf died heroically for this mission. We should bury them well.”

“Yes.” The others responded in unison.

They then set out to build tombs for the two people on this hillside. They picked up their heads and put them back in place again. A feeling of heaviness shrouded their hearts.

Xiao Luo didn’t say a word during all this. Although he didn’t like these SEAL Team, he didn’t like to gloat at such an event. Cannibalism was not only a tragedy of the SEAL Team, but also a tragedy of all mankind.

“I’ll expose this to the world. I want people all over the world to know that war will only bring pain. It is the enemy of all mankind!” Sarah Michelle clenched her fist and said in a firm tone.

“You have the strength to do so!” Xiao Luo nodded affirmatively. In this, he agreed with Sarah very much. The war brought hunger and panic, and the resulting problems were enormous.

“Mr. Mie, you have long discovered that these villagers are dangerous, right?” Sarah asked at this time.

Xiao Luo shook his head. “No, I just feel a little strange.”

Sarah continued, “Strange? What strange?”

“The Libyan civilians I met along the way have dulled and numbed eyes, and are full of fear. Although the villagers here have similar eyes, they were missing fear. Despite seeing us dressed in camouflage uniforms and armed with weapons, they did not run off because of fear, and instead eagerly stared at us.” Xiao Luo elaborated.

Hearing this, Sarah and the members of the SEAL Team became fearful. When they first arrived in this small mountain village at dusk, the villagers were indeed watching them eagerly. Thinking about it, those were clearly the eyes that were looking at ‘food’.

“Sir, since you found something was wrong, why didn’t you warn us? What were you thinking?” Deputy Rice shouted angrily at Xiao Luo.

Xiao Luo snorted softly, “That’s just my guess. Besides, would you have taken it to heart if I said it?”

Rice couldn’t refute. Indeed, they had been dismissive of Xiao Luo. Even if Xiao Luo spoke his doubt at that time, they would only laugh at him for being too cautious.

“Don’t count on him, he never regarded us as comrades nor companions.” Mina said cynically.

Hearing this remark, Xiao Luo really wanted to laugh. For the sake of going the same way, he would provide whatever help he could. For example, in this tragedy, he felt that these villagers had problems and would naturally help them avoid it if they gave him the chance to speak and weren’t being so hostile.

As a matter of fact, what he really disliked above all was this Mina. She disgusted him and made him want to throw up. In the end, they were all birds of the same feather. Why would he help them if they didn’t want it in the first place? And now that tragedy had struck, they blamed him?

“He just hit Mina!” A SEAL said angrily.

‘What?!’

When Rice heard this, he immediately got angry, “Mr. Mie, you must give me an explanation, otherwise I will let you see that our SEAL are not some pushovers!”

While saying this, he rolled up his sleeves and cracked his knuckles, looking ready to fight.

“Rice, put away your temper. Mr. Mie and we are companions. We must be one in dealing with the outside world, not engage in infighting.” Powell shouted at him.

“But he hit Mina, I…”

“Shut up. I order you to stop and help us bury Hebrew and Adolf!” Powell sternly said.

Generally speaking, when the superior severely called your rank, it meant that the superior’s tolerance had reached his limit.

Rice bit his teeth and held his chest up. “Yes.”

He then went back to the hillside and joined the others to dig the graves

Xiao Luo didn’t bother paying attention to them, and went back to the house to rest. Sarah felt that it was safest to follow Xiao Luo, so she went wherever Xiao Luo went, and became Xiao Luo’s tail.

Looking at the man with his back against the wall, eyes closed resting. As light reflected on his cold face, he looked like an eagle in the night, cold and proud and lonely.

“Grandpa, thank you so much for inviting such a powerful helper. Without him, I would have died.” Sarah Michelle thought in her heart.

……

……

On the second day, they left the small mountain village.

There were two solitary graves on the hillside, and the bodies of the nearby villagers gave it a strange atmosphere. The sky was dark and obscure, and the air was filled with yellow sand particles. It looked like hell.

But their mission must continue. Powell quickly walked out of the shadow of grief. Powell had taken off the badges of his two dead companions and kept them properly. These would be used to represent Hebrew and Adolf.

“Mr. Mie, I sincerely hope that you can forget some unhappiness between us. We are now a team and should help each other, shouldn’t we?” Powell approached Xiao Luo and held out his hand.

Xiao Luo was not only representing himself but also his motherland, so to strip off the bad reputation China had in Shemei Guo Country, Xiao Luo accepted, “Well said, I agree.”

“Mr. Mie, your gentleman demeanor is wonderful. To borrow a word from your Chinese country, ‘the prime minister can support a boat on his stomach’, and Mr. Mie is the prime minister.” Powell showed off his cultural understanding of China. This time, he was genuinely shaking hands with Xiao Luo, and he didn’t play any tricks.

Xiao Luo smiled and also complimented, “Mr. Powell speaks Chinese very well!”

Compared with Mina and Rice, Powell was hiding his feelings deeply. Let’s just see when this Powell will show his fox tail.
