Chapter 76

She stood there, squinting at a line of obvious footprints on the ground.

She spit out the weed in her mouth, squatted down, and touched the moisture of the prints.

Judging by the force at which the leaves were pushed into the mud and the residual moisture in the footprints, these were the tracks of an adult male over 1.8 meters tall and weighing about 170 pounds.

And he must have just left.

Likely, it was that tanned dude.

Eileen lifted her head again. The sniper rifle on her shoulder felt a bit heavy, she shifted it to the other shoulder and darted forward.

As she passed through the jungle, she occasionally saw some monkeys. This area must be their habitat.

Ten minutes later, Eileen caught up to the creek and spotted a tanned man.

The faint scent of blood wafted into her nostrils. The man was washing his blood–stained hands in the creek, a rifle slung over his back. Eileen shifted her gaze and saw two tightly bound, bleeding monkeys at the man’s feet.

After washing his hands, the man stood up. He hoisted the two monkeys with his rifle, mumbling, “These two monkeys should feed me a couple of days.”

Looks like he left alone to find food.

Eileen quietly set up her sniper rifle.

“Someone’s here!” The man shouted in alarm.

Eileen squinted and immediately pulled the trigger.

With a “whoosh“, the man’s right leg gave way, a spray of blood erupted from his thigh, and he went down on his knees.

Realizing he was ambushed, the man quickly rolled to one side and hid behind a large tree.

Eileen remained motionless.

A drone overhead recorded her every move, projecting it onto a screen in a camp outside the jungle and into the official live room of the central network.
