As the helicopter went down, people who were originally hiding underwater rushed out, and then a large number of attacking weapons furiously bombarded the small island reef.
Peter and his team were about to enter the water but were blocked by the strong firepower on the island reef. The faces of everyone had changed drastically, as they hadn’t expected this to happen.
At this time, the pressure on Peter Brown increased even more. After entering the water, quite a few people had already surrounded him.
Since there were no outsiders nearby and they were in the water, Peter used his True Qi and released a Water Talisman. His entire body was enveloped in a layer of water, and he grabbed a handgun and started shooting at the people who swam towards him.
Due to his ability to investigate with True Qi, Peter’s shooting was very effective. Almost every shot was precise, and soon corpses began to float on the water’s surface.
Peter also realized that although the enemies were numerous and there were a lot of ordinary personnel, they were skilled soldiers, and there were only a few Cultivators among them.
Protected by the water defense talisman, Peter quickly reached the pilot’s side.
Seeing that the pilot had already fainted, Peter quickly fed him a medicine pill and brought him back to the island reef.
Both sides had already started fighting fiercely. Jason Weir fought while making a phone call, reporting the situation to a superior officer.
In a flash, Peter arrived on the shore carrying the rescued person and avoided the enemy’s weaponry without being hit.Entering a natural trench, Peter finally let out a breath.
"The rest of the people on the helicopter should have already died. This is the only person we could save!"
Hearing Peter’s regretful words, everyone looked at him with complex expressions. In their minds, Peter’s decision to charge into the enemy to save someone was clearly unwise.
Jason Weir gripped Peter Brown’s hand, "Thank you, Peter. If it wasn’t for your arrival, we would have suffered more casualties."
Several people had already died just at the beginning of the fight. Although only one person from their group had died, it was clear that there were more people on the helicopter.
"It’s necessary. Now all we need to do is protect ourselves and hope that our superiors can send reinforcements as soon as possible!"
At this point, Priest Wilson also became anxious and said to Jason Weir, "We must ask for reinforcements as before. I feel that this treasure hunting mission is a complete scam!"
"Our superiors have been informed about the situation here. This time they will send a warship, but what we need to do now is hold on!"
While speaking, everyone continued to fire a large number of bullets.
James Rain said, "Their goal is obvious - they want to trap us here and then wipe us out. Everyone should save some bullets and not use them all at once."
"It’s strange. Where did they come from?" Austin Campbell looked at the large number of enemies appearing from the water, confused.
Peter looked toward the opposite island reef and said, "There is indeed a formation. However, this formation is an Illusion Formation. I think they are all hiding on that island reef, not a small island reef but a big one."
"You can’t be serious, it’s clearly just a small island reef."
At this point, Tara Morgan’s attitude towards Peter had changed a lot. Initially, she and Camilla Collins hadn’t thought highly of Peter and didn’t believe that he had high cultivation. Now, they didn’t dare underestimate Peter. However, when Peter said that the island reef opposite was actually a large one, Tara couldn’t help but question it.
Peter said, "There should indeed be a formation on it, but the formation is obviously broken and should have been occupied by a certain power."
"Have they completely broken the formation, and have the treasures inside been taken away by them?" The cold and silent Albert Davis also asked a question.
"I don’t know the specifics, but from the current situation, they should have entered the first layer of the formation. There should be a large number of personnel inside, and I reckon that everyone who has come from all directions this time will become their hunting targets."
"Peter, can you tell what kind of formation this is?" Priest Wilson asked.
"If I’m not mistaken, this should be an Illusion Formation with at least two layers of settings. The outermost layer should have been naturally broken after many years. There are also experts in formations on their side, which is why they found a way in. I believe our side also discovered this place by chance, right?" As Peter spoke, he looked at Jason Weir.
Jason Weir nodded, "This island reef is not a place where people can stay for long. Our country’s army didn’t pay much attention to it, and since few people have ever come here, they naturally didn’t consider it a priority. However, after some of our soldiers went missing during training, they began to take it seriously, and then dispatched people to investigate. After the investigation, they discovered that the soldiers’ disappearances were not caused by waves but by some unknown reason."
Priest Wilson said, "That’s right. After receiving the report, we sent people here and were surprised to find that it was a formation. The first group we sent out got trapped in it, which is why we came."
So that’s what happened!
After learning about the situation, everyone’s faces changed.
"If, as Peter said, this place has long been occupied by a certain power and they are breaking the formation, then what should we do?" Oliver Bridge looked at Jason Weir.
"This is our country’s territory, and we cannot allow foreign forces to occupy it under any circumstances. Our superiors already know about the situation. I will report Peter’s findings as well." Jason Weir made another phone call.
Perhaps knowing that those surrounded may call for help, more enemies emerged from the water. Then they launched a fierce attack on the shore.
"This won’t work. We probably won’t be able to hold on if this continues!" James Rain fired his handgun anxiously while talking to Jason Weir.
Seeing the densely packed crowds rushing towards them and noticing the arrival of assault boats with many enemies using powerful weapons to attack, everyone’s faces changed.
"What kind of power is this?"
"Definitely not a small power that has such strong offensive capabilities!"
Everyone now realized that those who had come here were extraordinary people.
"Peter, what do we do now?" Jason Weir may be a military expert, but facing such a situation, he was also at a loss. After finishing his call, he looked at Peter Brown.
