Tit For Tat!
Puchi puchi!
Two grenades, ignited where they lay, emitted bursts of smoke.
Seeing this scene, Lu Ting didn't dare to delay any longer! Now that the grenades were fully ignited, his only choice was to find a place to avoid the shockwave from the impending grenade explosions—nothing else!
After all, real-life battlefields aren't like those 'magical' TV shows where grenades thrown by enemies, once ignited, can be thrown back by the protagonist with a halo.
Immediately, Lu Ting retreated behind the kitchen cabinet units made of reinforced concrete and wood boards, turning his whole body toward the direction of the living room, half kneeling with his feet facing the direction of the living room, hands protecting his head and propped on the ground.
This posture would minimize the damage to his body from the explosion.
Just as Lu Ting prepared himself to face the shockwave from the explosion, the two grenades in the living room exploded right after each other!
BOOM!! BOOM!!
Two deafening explosions echoed through the room, and the tremendous force unleashed by the explosions shook the entire building slightly!
In the room at the center of the grenade explosions, the terrifying shockwaves turned the space into ruins in an instant, as if a tornado had swept through!
A large amount of dust instantly filled the entire room, making it impossible to see clearly inside for a short time.
However, while the aftermath of the grenade explosions had not completely dissipated, the gang of thugs led by Zakka, who had been stationed outside in the corridor, took advantage of the moment and approached with their guns drawn!
However, they did not rush into the room. Upon reaching the doorway, Zakka raised his hand to signal his men to stop. He peered into the room quickly, but this brief glance didn't reveal the specific situation inside.
After considering for two seconds, Zakka instructed his men beside him, "Get in there and find him!"
Zakka didn't believe that under the explosive power of those two grenades, Lu Ting could escape unscathed! The sudden attack with those two grenades was so unexpected that, unprepared as he was, the sheer noise from the explosions alone could have left him stunned for a while!
Furthermore, Lu Ting was hiding in such a closed-off room. The full force of the explosions from the two grenades was contained and reverberating within the room!
Therefore, Zakka concluded that Lu Ting might be hiding in any corner of this room, still reeling from the grenade explosions!
Upon hearing the orders from their boss, the thugs accompanying Zakka didn't dare to waste any time. They immediately picked up their weapons and entered the room one by one, stepping cautiously inside.
Zakka himself mixed in with the group, moving together!
Today, he had to personally capture Lu Ting and deliver him to their boss, Arthur!
The space in this room wasn't actually large. The smoke from the two grenade explosions lingered persistently.
Zakka and his men didn't make too much noise, afraid of startling Lu Ting inside the room. They were cautious, even though they didn't know his exact situation at this moment.
Thud.
"Tsk!"
Walking through the thick smoke, Zakka was suddenly bumped by one of his men. He frowned instantly and cursed fiercely, "Idiots! Open your damn eyes!"
Immediately after, Zakka surveyed the surroundings and continued, "You guys, search other spots carefully! Once you hear any movement, shoot immediately! Got it?!"
"Yes!"
As Zakka finished speaking, several thugs promptly responded to his command.
Just as these thugs were about to leave and search other areas of the room, a series of rolling sounds, gradually approaching from a distance, echoed through!
Dugrururu...
Hearing this familiar sound, the expressions on the faces of the thugs changed drastically. Wasn't this the sound the grenades made when they were thrown earlier?!
"Grenades!"
"It's grenades! Fuck!"
"WTF!!"
"Where?! Where are the grenades?!"
...
At that moment,
The thugs who had entered the living room space of this room were plunged into endless fear and panic. The smoke from the grenades' explosion moments ago hadn't cleared, and now they couldn't even see from which direction the grenades were rolling in!
Even worse, in their immense fear and panic, they couldn't even locate where the room's entrance was anymore!
The thugs ran around the living room space like headless flies!
"Looking for me?"
However, at that moment, Lu Ting's voice suddenly rang out like a ghost in the ears of the thugs.
"Who!"
"Who's there?!"
The sudden unfamiliar voice startled this group of thugs, whose military competence was already questionable. Even the squad leader Zakka's heart was filled with extreme fear!
Immediately after,
They realized suddenly that besides themselves, there was only one other person in this room—the mercenary Lu Ting, who had been pursued all the way here!
He...
He's okay?
How is that possible!
Just as Zakka and the gang of thugs were still in shock from Lu Ting's sudden voice and hadn't reacted yet, the next second...
The M57 grenade that Lu Ting had thrown into the center of the crowd exploded with a resounding bang!
Boom!!!
Unlike ordinary grenades, the M57 grenade contained explosive power several times greater, and most importantly, it was packed with fifty solid steel balls!
Therefore, the M57 grenade was often referred to as the "Hand Cannon" grenade!
When it exploded, its blast radius could affect anything within fifteen meters, leaving nothing unscathed!
And at this moment, Lu Ting knew that this was the best, the most effective, large-scale weapon to deal with these thugs!
'You guys like throwing grenades, right? Let me show you what it feels like to be bombed by grenades!'
