《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 53: Encountering a Gunfight by Chance
Advertisement
The wild beast growled. The foul smell that it emitted from devouring the rotten flesh made Qi Feng nearly break down.
Whoosh!
Just as it was about to bite Qi Feng's carotid artery, a broken branch flew over from above and accurately pierced through its head. It collapsed to the ground!
The surrounding wild beasts were afraid and did not dare to attack rashly.
Wu Mei leapt down and landed steadily in front of Qi Feng. When she saw the wild beast pouncing towards her, she broke its neck with brute force and threw it to the ground!
This brutal murderous intent shocked the group of wild beasts. They let out two low howls, and scattered in all directions with their tails between their legs!
"Only the strong can survive."
Wu Mei looked at Qi Feng, who was lying weakly on the ground with pale lips and was completely out of his mind.. She wiped away the blood on her fingertips and tied his hands and feet with a hemp rope. Then, she threw him into a relatively safe area and lit a torch to chase away any wild beasts that might approach.
"Good luck," she said before gracefully turning away from him and disappearing into the rainforest.
When Qi Feng regained consciousness, those knots could hold him back for at most two hours, which could delay his return to the training camp.
Carrying her backpack, Wu Mei followed the compass and continued forward. When she passed by a stream, she wanted to rest her feet, but she heard footsteps. Warily, she hid behind a tree. When she saw that person dragging her tired body forward, she exclaimed in surprise, "Zhong Ling?"
"Wu Mei! I've finally found you." Zhong Ling wiped her face and smiled with relief.

According to the rules of outfield combat, as a show of fairness the members from the same team would be placed at a location more than ten kilometers away from each other.
"Why are you here?"
Wu Mei removed her backpack for her and handed her a canteen. Zhong Ling shook her head to indicate that she had one herself.
She propped herself up on her knees and wiped the sweat from her face. She smiled shyly and said, "I was the third person to jump from the helicopter. According to the wind speed, the flight path, the possible deviations, as well as Instructor Bai's selfish motives towards you, she would definitely arrange for you to be the last and be placed at the furthest point..."
"After I landed, I marked out your possible landing points based on the information and linked it to the training ground. This is a road that you must take."
"No matter where you are, you have to pass by here... That's why I wanted to wait for you here!"
Zhong Ling's investigative and analytical skills impressed Wu Mei. She nodded with admiration and said, "Well done."
"It's about three hours away from the training camp. Can you make it?" Wu Mei knew about Zhong Ling's physical condition and asked her.
Victory and defeat were the most important to special agents. Zhong Ling gritted her teeth and held on. "I can do it!"
In the tropical rainforest, snakes, rats, mosquitoes, and insects blocked their vision. Wu Mei and Zhong Ling increased their speed and walked forward. Suddenly, they heard two gunshots coming from the east, followed by the sound of fighting. They were very close and could make out the figures of the two parties fighting. Their firepower was not weak!

Wu Mei pulled Zhong Ling down to a squat and looked at the map. She pointed at a certain spot and said, "Let's go around it."
"They..." Zhong Ling's voice was quavering from encountering a gunfight.
Wu Mei shook her head and said, "The competition is important."
She shielded Zhong Ling and wanted to continue on her way. She turned around to take a look at the situation, when she caught sight of a familiar figure hiding behind the off-road vehicle!
Li Nanchen?!
Why is he here?!
Wu Mei stopped Zhong Ling. She could tell that the enemy was very familiar with the ambushing in the rainforest. Li Nanchen, on the other hand, was not familiar with the terrain and was currently at a disadvantage. He was in danger of being surrounded.
She instructed Zhong Ling to keep watch from where they were before she quietly snuck into the battle ground. Then, she suddenly held up her gun and shot through the hearts of several nearby enemies...
Her appearance made the other party a little flustered. While they were caught by surprise and were in a mess, Wu Mei said loudly, "Northwest, 20 meters."
"Lure them. There's a quagmire there!"
When Li Nanchen's subordinate saw her, he hesitated for a few seconds before carrying out her orders.
Wu Mei used the off-road vehicle as a cover and accurately shot the enemy's leader. Looking at the defeated enemy, she lowered her head and said, "Are they able to clear the battlefield?"
"Okay."
Li Nanchen nodded weakly and made arrangements through the walkie-talkie.
A few dark clouds that blocked out the moonlight dispersed and some light shone down, causing Wu Mei and Li Nanchen to stare at each other silently with mixed feelings.
This was the first time they had met since they parted ways at the hospital.
Zhong Ling was worried about her and quickly ran over. She tugged on Wu Mei's arm and looked nervously at Li Nanchen as she said, "Let's go! The training is more important. They... seem to be very dangerous. It's better not to get involved!"
"I'm fine." Li Nanchen smiled and leaned against the car, nodding at Wu Mei.
Wu Mei hesitated for a while. Seeing that the remaining enemies were all tied up and there was no danger, she grabbed her backpack and said, "In that case, be careful."

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr
