Chapter 16: Chapter 16: A Helping Hand in the Dark
Bang!
A gunshot rang out, and the bullet shot out from a place Jason had never expected. The woman who had just been so pitiful turned into a cold female killer in an instant. This time, Jason was really caught off guard.
But the training in the past few days has paid off. Jason dodged the bullet that was aimed at his heart at the last second.
The female killer's bullet did not hit Jason's heart, but it penetrated his shoulder.
After these days of death training, Jason had long been accustomed to the pain. There was no scream, and no hesitation. Jason activated the Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada and quickly moved more than ten meters to the left.
At the moment when Jason escaped, the other two men also opened fire at the place where Jason had just stood.
If Jason had reacted a little slower, he would have been shot to pieces.
Jason now realized that something was not right. The guy on the opposite side seemed to have come specifically to find him. But Jason did not have time to think about it. He took advantage of the time to dodge and threw the two flying knives in his hands.
Puff~Puff~ Two sounds of knives piercing into flesh.
Because they were moving, Jason's aim was not very good, and the two knives failed to hit the vital parts, only piercing one person's leg and one person's shoulder, and it seemed that the wounds were not deep. The two men directly pulled the knives out of the wounds and continued to shoot at Jason.
Jason knew that he was probably being ambushed this time, but he was still confused as to why the other party wanted to trouble him.
Jason took out the two Colt M1911 pistols he had obtained from his combat belt and prepared to fight back. In such a narrow alley, there was too little room to maneuver, so it was more convenient to shoot with a gun.
Just as Jason was about to fire, he heard gunshots from behind him. Jason felt a sense of crisis and used his Eight Steps to Chase Cicadas skill to dodge the bullets from behind. Now Jason was hiding between two large metal trash cans. A dozen assassins with guns rushed in from both ends of the alley.
Only a few of them were holding pistols, and the remaining dozen or so were holding high-powered assault rifles.
The killers who surrounded and killed Jason this time were obviously not the amateur gangsters last time. This time, everyone's cooperation seemed to be well-planned, and they kept several assault rifles pointing at Jason to suppress the firepower, so Jason couldn't even show his head!
"Fuck your mother!"
For the first time in so many years since he traveled through time, Jason cursed out the Chinese curse from his previous life. Who did he offend? To have such a high level of assassins dispatched to kill him on a large scale? However, sitting and waiting to die was not Jason's habit.
Jason took out a smoke prop from his belt and triggered it directly. The terrain in the alley was narrow and the smoke was difficult to dissipate. The smoke that originally covered only a radius of 20 meters now covered the entire alley. All the killers' vision was blocked. After all, they were not special forces in the army and would not carry thermal imaging devices with them.
Jason, who has the basic smoke escape technique, can see clearly in the smoke. He wants to kill these killers as much as possible while the smoke blocks his vision.
This time it is really a life-and-death, ruthless fight!
Now that their vision is blocked, the only thing these killers can rely on is hearing. And they are starting to retreat in an organized manner. Prepare to withdraw from this alley first.
Jason naturally couldn't let them go so easily. He put away his pistol and took out his steel knife and throwing knives.
Jason threw several throwing knives directly at the main attackers holding assault rifles.
This time, the throwing knives were thrown in a relatively stable state, and the accuracy of the throwing knives was greatly improved. The three throwing knives directly cut the throats of the three killers, bringing out a cavity of blood and ending the lives of the three people.
This time the offensive and defensive situation changed instantly, and the original prey became the hunter.
Jason wielded a steel knife and rushed into the crowd. He would take the life of a killer in a moment.
This made the killers who were originally well organized lose their composure, and some of them began to shoot at the place where the sound came from. But shooting without sight is just a random shot.
Because Jason can see, he can predict the direction of those people's shooting, but other killers who have no sight in the smoke cannot avoid it.
Many people were killed by their own people in the hail of gunfire.
Jason put away his steel knife and took out his pistol to fish in troubled waters amid the hail of gunfire. With his accurate shooting skills, every pull of the trigger would inevitably take a life.
The smoke had not yet dissipated, but there were no people left standing in the alley. Even if there were a few people who were not dead, they were wailing on the ground with gunshot wounds.
Only now, after calming down, did Jason feel the pain in his left shoulder. Blood had soaked most of his clothes. Because of the blood loss, Jason's lips turned pale.
Jason took out the quick hemostatic spray that the system had rewarded him with and sprayed it on his wound a few times, and the blood immediately coagulated.
Just as Jason was about to take out the trauma bandage to bandage himself, a two-meter-tall man with a poker face ran towards Jason.
The person who came was Murphy Stanton, the boss of the Stanton Gang, and the mutant mentioned by Franco Stanitch. In fact, Murphy Stanton was not a mutant in the true sense, but a modified person. He was a failed product of General Stryker's experiment.
Murphy Stanton, originally a failed product, will be disposed of as waste.
The Stanich family is the one who helps Stryker deal with the test waste. The Stanich family has many connections with the US military, and many dirty jobs that are inconvenient for the US military to handle will be handed over to the Stanich family. Including the treatment of highly radioactive nuclear waste, the test products required for various inhumane experiments are all provided by the Stanich family.
As a stubborn Italian descendant, Franco has the traditional Italian ideas of family and unity.
He doesn't like mutants or cyborgs, but he doesn't like his compatriots to become cyborg test subjects, and they are failed test subjects that need to be dealt with. So he gave Murphy Stanton a chance to work for him. As a cyborg, although he is a failure, Murphy Stanton still has good abilities. He helped Franco a lot in the early years, and even his position as the head of the Stanich family was related to Murphy's efforts.
It was not until the Stanich family's business grew bigger and bigger in recent years that Franco slowly relaxed his control over Murphy Stanton and let him go out to form his own small gang.
It was not until today that Franco asked Murphy to take action again in order to capture the Night Walker who might be related to the Brooklyn Massacre.
Murphy ran towards Jason, and Jason took out his knife and got into a fighting stance. Unexpectedly, Murphy suddenly raised his hands and slapped his palms together in the direction of Jason when he was still more than ten meters away from Jason. Unlike the expected slapping sound, Murphy's hands did not make any sound. However, an invisible sound wave surged out of Murphy's hands.
Jason was hit by this silent sound wave accidentally, and felt like he was hit by a sledgehammer in the chest. He vomited blood and was hit hard and flew several meters away.
This is actually a mutant! Jason did not expect it.
Why are mutants difficult to deal with? It's because they have all kinds of special mutant abilities.
If you know a mutant's ability, it's OK, because you can find a way to specifically target him. Just like Jason dealt with Dr. Lizard in the simulation training these days. But if you don't know a mutant, then you can only improvise, and because you don't know the other party's ability, you will suffer a great loss, just like Jason is doing now.
Jason was not only wounded in the chest, but also had his shoulder, which had stopped bleeding, opened again and bled.
Seeing Murphy walking towards him, Jason quickly threw out two flying knives to stop him. Murphy let out a silent shout, forming an invisible sound wave barrier around him, and the two flying knives thrown by Jason were directly bounced away.
"I've really hit the ditch this time."
Jason thought gloomily.
He took out another smoke prop from his belt, ready to escape with the cover of smoke if things didn't work out.
Just as Jason was about to trigger the smoke prop, he suddenly saw a flash of fire on the opposite building. Then a loud gunshot pierced the night sky.
Although he didn't see what kind of gun it was, just by hearing the sound, Jason knew that it was definitely a large-caliber rifle, and it might even be a large-caliber sniper rifle.
The bullets that shot out with the flames did not fly towards Jason, but whizzed towards Murphy Stanton.
Murphy obviously felt the danger and gave up rushing towards Jason. Instead, he tried to dodge to the side, and at the same time, he shouted silently again and set up sonic defense around his body.
The large-caliber sniper rifle bullet flew very fast, and Murphy was unable to dodge the bullet. The bullet hit Murphy's defense and the sound wave made a huge noise. Jason felt that he was almost deafened. Murphy Stanton, who was at the center of the noise, had bleeding in both ears, and it seemed that his eardrums were broken.
Jason is a little confused now. What is going on today? Someone wants to kill me and someone else wants to save me? What is going on? Can someone explain it to me?
