Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 2989

Despite successfully eliminating two mercenaries, Kasen and Ezra also suffered injuries. The opposing party had seized the opportunity by turning off the car headlights, leading to a tense standoff.

The battlefield was eerily quiet under the moonlight. Under Bells’ command, everyone's attention was fixed on the unfolding events. Four mercenaries had surrounded the small hill where Shawn was hiding.

Kasen felt uneasy as he watched the scene. While he could see the enemy's figures in the moonlight, they appeared somewhat blurry. Taking a shot risked exposing his location in the darkness, making it even harder to avoid rocket and machine gun fire.

The initial attack had left Kasen battered and bruised. Despite growing anxiety, there seemed to be little he could do. The situation was getting worse by the minute.

"They're getting close to your position, Prince," Kasen warned, his expression tinged with worry. He steadied his trembling, injured arm and focused intently on the scope.

"Okay!" Shawn responded, carefully placing the heavily injured Leanna on the grass.

"Stay quiet and hang in there," he urged her before lowering his body and cautiously advancing towards the approaching enemy.

Shawn's strategy became clear as he contemplated their predicament. He mused, Running away with Leanna isn't feasible in our current condition. Confronting the enemy head-on seems the best choice in the darkness and uncertainty.

Taking cover amidst the vegetation, Shawn advanced about ten meters closer to the two mercenaries.

When the gap between them shrank to less than three meters, he took a deep breath and lunged forward. With lightning speed, his dagger sliced through the neck of one of the mercenaries before they could react.

As the second mercenary raised his rifle in response, Shawn agilely dodged the bullet and swiftly countered by crushing the man's throat with a powerful blow from his fist.

Within moments, both mercenaries lay lifeless on the ground.

However, a bullet pierced through Shawn's arm before he could even catch his breath!

"D*mn!" With a curse, he rolled into a nearby depression.
