It's like fingernails scratching or rubbing against a wall. The sound is small but sharp. It's not far away, it's in a nearby house.
But I couldn't tell where exactly it was. It was like the sound of a gunshot with a silencer, and I couldn't tell the direction at all.
Long Zhan felt inexplicably uneasy about the sound. His intuition told him that something big would happen soon, and he couldn't help but want to find out the source.
So I quickly turned on the night vision device and scanned every corner of the street through the eyepiece.
The streets between the buildings were deserted, not even a ghost was seen. I also scanned the first floors of nearby houses, but found nothing.
If nothing was found on the first floor, I searched above, and in the end I only found one target.
On the second floor of the building directly in front, the entrance is diagonally up to the left of the second window.
There is no glass on the window, so the moonlight cannot be reflected on it. The nearby windows are shining brightly, but this window has no reflection.
It is likely that they are sentries from the USEC team, hiding behind this position to observe.
This is easy to understand.
There is no need for the sentry to reveal his position. He only needs to stand inside and look and listen through the window to collect external information.
Although the viewing angle of the window is narrow, the information that can be collected will be very limited.
But as a fully-staffed USEC team, looking at the entire Tarkov team, they are top-notch existences, and few of them would seek trouble by themselves.
A few people can't be spotted by sentries, and they won't pose any big threat.
Unless it is an equally elite team, or a large SCAV group with a large number of people, who wants to eat them by relying on the advantage of numbers.
However, if a large number of enemies are surrounded, they will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the sentry, and there is no need for the sentry to stand outside.
Long Zhan searched around and found nothing unusual, so he asked Dennis next to him: "Hey, Dennis, I heard something wrong. Did you hear it?"
"Yes, but I didn't find them."
Dennis frowned and looked solemn, obviously aware that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
This is intuition!
It can also be called the sixth sense!
You can't see it, but you can feel it. You can't explain it scientifically, but it does exist in everyone.
"Something must be coming, we..."
"Bang~"
Long Zhan was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by a huge explosion.
Hearing the sound, he knew it was the explosion of a grenade. Long Zhan immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the explosion and found that it was the window he had just looked at.
This is where Long Zhan judged from experience where the USEC team's sentry is.
"We accurately found the spot where the sentry was, and then used a grenade to remove the spot. It seems that these guys who came over are not ordinary people."
Long Zhan still didn't find the hidden third party, but this did not affect his judgment.
"Someone is attacking the USEC team building, should we go over and help?"
There was a struggle and conflict in Dennis's eyes when he spoke. His words were not only asking Long Zhan for his advice, but they were also questioning his own inner self.
"Whatever happens to them is none of our business."
Long Zhan wanted to blurt out these words, but when he thought about the goal of his plan, he suppressed the words back in his throat.
He changed his tune and said: "Let's wait and see the situation outside."
By this time the building was in a mess.
I don’t know who it was, or what method was used to accurately throw a grenade into the room on the second floor where the USEC sentry was located.
From the moment the grenade exploded, the building seemed to be shaking.
This building originally had only five floors and the front width was less than 20 meters. It was built using traditional red bricks as the main body, walls and weighing bodies.
Compared with the cement-cast frame structure, it is far inferior in terms of stability and "explosion resistance".
When it explodes, a big chunk will fall off.
The house that was hit by a thunderstorm had its window frames blown out, and half of the window sill collapsed, exposing a big hole.
The four USECs who had just laid down and had not yet fallen asleep suddenly straightened up at the sound of explosions.
Panicked, asked, shouted...
The sound is a mess!
Under the captain's loud instructions, the four USEC members did not dare to turn on the lights and could only search for their belongings in the dark room.
Wear a chest sling, a backpack, grab a weapon, and complete the arming as quickly as possible.
The USECs didn't know where the enemy was, so they didn't dare to turn on the lights, for fear of being stuffed with a grenade like in the sentry room.
It's impossible to see what's going on in the dark, and USEC is in a hurry.
Fortunately, everything is nearby.
The USEC is still putting on weapons and equipment here, and the enemies throwing grenades have begun to attack the building, swarming in from the windows and back doors on the north and south sides.
They came from the direction of USEC and launched an attack on this building.
From this, it can be inferred that this group of people has actually been eyeing this USEC team for a long time and has been following them.
The USECs heard about the disruptive student downstairs and immediately rushed to the stairs to intercept him.
One person was also assigned to rescue the sentry.
The stairs are the only way to go up to the second floor. One party needs to block the passage, and the other party needs to break through. Both parties rush to the stairwell almost at the same time.
The battle inevitably broke out, and there was the most intense fighting from the beginning.
the click-click of automatic rifle fire;
The thrilling blast of a shotgun;
The screams of being shot, the explosion of grenades, the sound of shattering glass...
Long Zhan and Dennis could clearly hear that the house had been turned into a pot of porridge, and they could also see the scattered light of a large number of fires and explosions.
If you abandon all sounds and only see the light.
It was like there was a welder inside the house, constantly welding, and strong light flashed and leaked from various gaps in the windows and doors.
But the enjoyment of the ears has been very rich, but the eyes still haven't seen anyone.
Whether it's USEC or an unknown enemy.
Can't even see it!
The screams and frightened and angry curses were all in English. Both Long Zhan and Dennis knew that the USEC inside was very uncomfortable.
There is a high probability that he has been fooled and is being pursued unilaterally by the enemy.
"They should be attacking from the other side. We don't know how many people are attacking USEC. Do you want to try to join in the fun?"
Long Zhan asked Dennis for his opinion. After all, saving people was a risk for two people, and he didn't want to have his own way.
Dennis did not reply to Long Zhan, but instead responded with action. Holding a silenced MPX submachine gun, he rushed towards the noisy house.
"This guy... I didn't expect him to be so impatient."
Long Zhan grinned, showing his white teeth, and followed quickly with the explosive spray gun.
The two of them, one small and one large, became the third party to join the battle.
