Snowflakes fell like goose feathers, and the wind and waves on the sea made the ship sway constantly. Li Ke stood steadily on the bow, looking at Chen Ziyue and his sister on the opposite boat. They could not stand steadily because of the wind and snow, and had to be supported by others. He did not show any mercy to their weakened appearance.
"If you want to let them go, prepare a boat to send them back. My ship will not accept them." Through the wind and snow, Li Ke's voice was so penetrating that it reached the opposite boat.
Joan brushed the snowflakes off her eyelashes and shouted into the speaker, "What do you want? Didn't you come here to rescue the hostages? Are you going to watch these two elderly compatriots die now?"
Li Ke: "Send them back the same way you brought them here."
Qiong was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. At this moment, Cage, who had been listening to her conversation, issued an order through the headset: "Since she is doing this, you kill her in front of her. I don't believe that she doesn't want any hostages!"
When Qiong heard the order, she immediately took out the pistol from her waist and stretched her stiff fingers. Seeing that Li Ke on the opposite side was still indifferent, she decisively shot and killed Chen Ziyue and his sister.
"Since you don't want them anymore, I will send them off early and end their suffering as soon as possible." Qiong shouted at Li Ke provocatively, then put the pistol back to her waist.
After killing two people in a row, she felt that the depression in her body had finally dissipated a little. Just as she was about to ask Commander Cage for the next order, she suddenly felt dizzy, snowflakes hit her face quickly, and she heard the sound of bones breaking.
She saw several figures flying up beside her. After the spinning stopped, the overwhelming waves suddenly grabbed her and dragged her into darkness. Her body became heavier and heavier and sank into the depths of the sea.
Her body could not make any movement to struggle for life, and she could not feel the cold. Her consciousness was slowly disappearing, and the moment of death came quickly. She was glad that she was not in too much pain.
Cage heard a very short and dull "hmm" sound in his earphone, followed by the sounds of "whoosh" and "bang". His experience allowed him to quickly determine that this was the sound of an object being smashed into the water.
After failing to call Joan, he immediately contacted the captain of the ship. The captain answered the call quickly, but the scene happening in front of him made him open his eyes wide in shock and dared not move.
"That Li Ke shot Qiong and all the crew members guarding the deck into the sea in an instant. Her movements were so fast that we couldn't see clearly. We only saw our colleagues on the deck flying up and then falling one by one." After hearing Cage's roars, the captain found his voice and quickly reported back.
Cage was shaking with anger. Joan was not only his subordinate, but also one of his lovers. He yelled at the captain, "What are you doing now? Are you shooting back? Are you trying to save people? Are all of you just going to watch this happen? Don't you know to shoot back?"
The captain heard the order and came to his senses. He loudly ordered his deputy: "Immediately organize people to fight back and rescue the people who fell into the water as soon as possible!"
The deputy next to him also heard the commander's roar, and knowing that the captain was also following orders, he could only carry out the order with a grim expression.
Not to mention the elusive Li Ke on the opposite side, even if they wanted to shoot back, they couldn't see the other side at all, and once their people were exposed on the deck, they would most likely be kicked into the sea.
As for rescuing the people who fell into the water, the entire deck was covered with thick snow, and the wind and waves made the entire ship sway constantly. In this situation, rescue work was impossible and they had to give up.
But now the commander has given the order, and they have to try their best to carry it out no matter how difficult it is.
Cage could hear gunshots and the captain's orders to the crew in his earphones. After that angry yell, he was beginning to calm down.
As the leading captain executed the order, he watched his crew members trying to balance themselves on the boat, looking for Li Ke, and then fired two random shots.
On the other side, one of the crew members slipped and fell into the sea before the rescue boat was successfully put on the sea surface.
The captain was equally helpless and furious. Looking at Li Ke's ship without a human on board, he directly ordered: "Concentrate all firepower and fire at the target ship!"
The subordinates next to him immediately started adjusting the artillery and concentrated their firepower to fire at the opposite side. After three consecutive large shells attacked at close range, the opposite ship was immediately set on fire. After the hull was broken into pieces and disintegrated, it slowly sank into the sea with flames and smoke.
When Cage heard the captain's order to fire in the headset, he subconsciously wanted to stop it, but soon he chose to let it go. This Li Ke was too arrogant. If there was no way to take her down, it would be best to kill her quickly.
Vincent stamped his feet anxiously. He was only responsible for the work in the laboratory. Cage was willing to discuss some things with him because of his lack of professional knowledge and respect for him. But in the final analysis, Cage was the general here and the real person in power.
The sound of gunfire had stopped. Vincent saw that Cage's face had returned to calm. He suppressed his anxiety and said, "This level of attack is unlikely to cause any harm to Li Ke. We have all seen the video. Her movements are too fast. Moreover, her target is too small. Our attack will easily miss. I think it would be better to negotiate with her. This kind of fierce clash is meaningless."
Cage felt a little unhappy when he heard this, but he knew that what Vincent said made sense, so he could only transfer his anger to Li Ke.
He was about to order the captain to stop the attack and rescue and to negotiate when he suddenly heard a huge thunder and then lost contact with the captain.
The subordinates who had been watching the battlefield situation nearby reported that the lead ship had been blown up and all the people on board had lost contact. Moreover, based on the situation, the entire ship was blown up and destroyed from the inside, and the explosion was extremely tragic.
Cage stood in front of the telescope, observing the situation of the bombed ship in the distance, while asking about the situation of the No. 2 ship, whether any trace of Li Ke had been found, and whether the safety of their own ship had been checked.
Ship No. 2 was side by side with Li Ke's ship. It was the small warship that Qiong took when she returned. There were nearly two thousand people on it. Cage was also a little surprised by the calmness of Ship No. 2.
The liaison officer next to him replied: "All crew members on the No. 2 ship have lost contact. We have called many times but received no response."
Cage saw a figure standing upright and flickering suddenly appearing on the warship in the vast sea of snow, and murmured, "No need to contact him again."
Although it was just a blurry figure, Cage's always accurate intuition told him that the person was Li Ke. She destroyed one of their warships and robbed another one. In this situation, how could they fight?
No matter how they fight, they will only hurt their own people.
Cage turned to Vincent and said, "Use your brain and think of other ways to deal with this monster. Otherwise, I can only send the hostage back and negotiate peace with her. I can't let our two thousand soldiers die because of her."
