172: When did Brother Shield become like this?

“On the way, you absolutely must not make any noise. Find good cover. If you hear any movement from Asala Soldiers, hide for a bit and wait for them to leave before moving forward. If Asala Soldiers detect us, our position will be exposed.”

“Understood.”

Jiang Yang, acting as the escort, was arranging the next tactical moves.

For this match, he equipped himself with four sets of armor and an MP5 for hip-firing.

As for the two bosses, they had tier-2 armor, tier-3 vests, and G18s—a pure team of leg-shooters.

With a meat shield, they were practically invincible at close range, but they would be helpless against distant enemies.

Fortunately, the Baksh map has narrow terrain, and most battles are street fights, allowing their equipment to be fully utilized.

However.

The bullets they carried, along with all their equipment, could at most sustain two battles.

On the Baksh map, with people everywhere, there was a high probability of encountering a team at the extraction point.

Therefore, the remaining one battle opportunity should ideally be reserved for the Museum.

That area is rich in resources, with extremely high drop rates, and other teams entering there also have good equipment and weapons.

As long as they could kill one team and successfully extract, this round would be a guaranteed win.

However.

All of this depended on Jiang Yang's team entering the Royal Museum without being discovered by others.

“Did you hear that?”

“Sound! Prepare for battle!”

Just as they were stealthily moving towards the Parking Lot, they unexpectedly found that several soldiers ahead suddenly noticed the commotion around them.

The two bosses Jiang Yang brought immediately panicked and tried to raise their guns to shoot.

“Shhh—don’t panic.”

At this moment, Jiang Yang frowned slightly and quickly gestured to the two of them.

Sure enough, the next second, those two Asala Soldiers ran towards the Blue Ting Hotel.

“Phew, you scared me to death! I thought they had found us!”

“I told you, we didn’t make a sound, how could they possibly find us?”

The two bosses breathed a sigh of relief, and Jiang Yang also relaxed.

It was a good thing these two rookies didn't react by shooting; otherwise, if a gunshot rang out, everyone around, whether other agents or Asala Soldiers, would notice the commotion.

Besides, you two leg-shooting noobs with G18s, you couldn't kill anyone shooting from that far away!

The situation just now was clearly that someone searching for things nearby had made a sound, which was noticed by the Asala Soldiers.

“Let’s keep moving forward.”

Jiang Yang said, leading the way to continue stealthily forward.

The three of them held their weapons, cautiously observing their surroundings.

However, they had barely taken a few steps when they unexpectedly saw the Asala Soldiers who had just gone towards the Blue Ting Hotel suddenly change direction and run back.

“Something’s not right, why was there such a big commotion in the Market just now?”

“The patrolling soldiers over there haven’t sent any messages, so it should be fine, right?”

“No, I feel like we still need to go check, after all, there’s something hidden in the Market this time.”

“Don’t worry, at that location, even a GTI Professional Agent wouldn’t think of hiding anything there!”

“Let’s still go check, I’m still not quite at ease!”

“Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you.”

The two Asala Soldiers conversed.

Hearing their conversation, Jiang Yang was also quite surprised.

“These Asala Soldiers, they actually know the location of the supply points? How do they know there are things hidden in the Baksh Market?”

Jiang Yang was very confused internally. Could it be that the resources in the restricted areas were all pre-arranged by Asala and Hafk?

That’s not right! Logically speaking, if they had such valuable supplies, they shouldn't risk them being taken away and extracted by GTI Agents by placing them in the restricted area.

And listening to their conversation, it seems these Asala Soldiers know more about GTI than ordinary people on Blue Star.

Jiang Yang frowned, unable to come up with an answer.

However, upon hearing them say there was cargo in the Market, he immediately changed his plan.

“Let’s go, we’ll check out the Market.”

Saying that, Jiang Yang didn't care what the two bosses thought and led the way towards the Market.

Anyway, even if they were going to the Museum, this was a necessary path for them.

It was better to go see if anything was truly hidden here, and if so, what kind of valuable goods would make two Asala Soldiers so worried.

However.

Just as Jiang Yang was stealthily approaching the Market, a burst of intense gunfire suddenly erupted from inside!

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——

A series of gunshots rang out, sounding like submachine guns such as the Wild Bull and UZI.

However, unlike normal gunshots, this series of shots sounded as if they were blocked by something metallic and did not successfully penetrate the target.

“The houses on the outskirts of Baksh should all be mud-brick houses, right? This isn’t Aerospace, how could there be metallic cover?”

Hearing this sound, Jiang Yang's already furrowed brow tightened even more.

Something was wrong, nine out of ten things were wrong!

“Escort boss, what do we do now?”

“It sounds like those two Asala Soldiers just found enemies, should we go over?”

The two bosses asked in confusion.

“Charge!”

At this moment, Jiang Yang directly gave the order.

No matter what was causing that strange sound, it was clear that the soldiers were fighting a team of people.

In situations where others are fighting, intervening often yields the highest returns.

Even if they only killed one person and the other two ran away, they could at least loot tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands worth of equipment.

If not now, when!

And so, Jiang Yang directly led the charge, rushing from the Parking Lot straight into the northern entrance of the Baksh Market.

However.

By the time he reached the Market, the two Asala Soldiers had already fallen.

Jiang Yang saw their bodies right in front of the corner, and as he slowly looked up, he then saw an incomprehensible presence!

A massive shield lay on the bodies of the two soldiers, even larger than an Asala Shield Soldier's shield!

The shield was pitch black, appearing a faint yellowish-green under the strong Baksh sunlight.

And through the glass window of that gigantic shield, Jiang Yang saw a somewhat familiar face.

“What the hell is this thing?!”

“Such a huge shield? When did Shield Bro evolve?”

The two bosses were also utterly shocked at this sight!

Logically speaking, an Asala Shield Soldier's shield only has one-third of this area, and even the Shield Soldier himself has to crouch behind the shield to avoid gunfire.

But the giant shield in front of them looked like it could hide two people!

If two Shield Bros were behind it firing submachine guns, even with tier-2 bullets, tier-4 and tier-5 armor wouldn't stand a chance!

However.

As the three stood at the corner, silently observing the large shield.

They didn't expect that the giant shield suddenly began moving rapidly towards them at an extremely fast speed!

“Run!”
