I must throw her off!
His rifle hadn’t even smashed down when the sound of pistol gunfire rang out.
The sound came from behind and to his side.
The ambusher froze completely, then immediately turned his head, looking in surprise in the direction the sound had come from.
There, to his astonishment, and previously ignored by him, was Becca Reyes. She had appeared in the gap he had scouted earlier, with a gun in her hand, pointing right at him.
There was no doubt, the gun had been fired by her.
Turning his head again, he saw plumes of blue smoke rising behind him, signaling the end of his part in the exercise.
"You..." Having a strong mental fortitude, the ambusher swallowed his saliva, reined in his startled expression, and then leaned over to look at Flossie Wright below him, unable to help asking, "How did you get up here?"
"Climbed up."
Maintaining her original posture, Flossie Wright squinted her eyes and answered him candidly.
As if anyone didn’t know she climbed up!
It’s not like she could fly up, could she?!
The ambusher grumbled inwardly, but since his question hadn’t been answered, he couldn’t exactly tear into Flossie Wright. He had to maintain a humble attitude and ask, "How come there was no sound?"
"No sound, you say?" Flossie Wright tilted her head slightly, seemingly very curious.
The ambusher cursed internally.
What, did he seem deaf to her?!
Not hearing a sound, could he be mistaken?!
Even though his attention had been focused on the female soldier across from him, that didn’t mean he was oblivious to all surrounding noises.
To him, Flossie Wright had seemingly appeared out of nowhere below.
"Or maybe..." Flossie Wright started speaking in a faint voice, then paused, lifting her lips. Her long, beautiful eyes filled with a smile, "you want to try going down?"
The simple ambusher blinked, not understanding.
The next moment—
Taking advantage of his distraction, Flossie Wright tightened her grip on the tree branch just enough to whip her long legs up against the cliff face and then mid-air, hurl herself at the ambusher, sweeping at his legs.
The ambusher was knocked away from the branch, and because both of his hands were holding onto the rifle, he couldn’t let go in time and had no choice but to plummet towards the ground!
As he fell, Flossie Wright pushed off with her hands, vaulting herself into the ambusher’s former position.
At the same time—
With no alternative, the ambusher let go of his rifle and rapidly adjusted his body mid-air to dive straight as an arrow into the sea.
Ten meters wasn’t an issue for well-trained special forces.
And that was the reason Flossie Wright confidently kicked him off.
Glancing below to ensure he surfaced alright, Flossie Wright then stood up on the tree branch and continued to climb higher.
"Hey, what do you think you’re doing?!"
From below the sheer cliff, the ambusher’s furious voice echoed.
How cold is this water!
Why does he, a "dead man," have to endure this?!
Flossie Wright didn’t pay him any attention.
Even if she explained, it would probably only make things worse.
Because all she wanted was to use the tree branch to climb higher.
In the sea.
The ambusher, burning with rage, watched the two climb up without a sound, so furious he felt smoke coming out of his three bodily orifices, wishing he could rush up there and yank Flossie Wright and her companion down into the water!
There’s no way to treat a "dead man" like this!
As his irritation grew, a voice suddenly came through his headset, "The deputy team leader asked me to contact you. There was gunfire on your end, what happened?"
