Chapitre 244: Chapter 237: Lucky Escape

The two went down the stone stairs, as a flurry of explosions echoed from outside. Cheng Ziang's concerns were valid – not a few flights down, a blast from above rose, shaking the tower they were in violently. A rocket seemingly just struck their observation post.

Even with preliminary test firing, the enemy's precision was lacking. The rockets they shot spread out like a scattered handful of flowers in the sky with only about half hitting the densely populated soldier areas. The rest were mostly left to chance.

Luckily the stone tower was sturdy enough to withstand the blast and did not collapse immediately, but this gave the pair a warning and they quickened their pace.

Meanwhile, the battle outside continued. Assisted by the rocket attacks, the gunmen started to retaliate. Some hid inside buildings along the river, wildly unleashing machine-gun fire at the mass of soldiers across the river. It was a mystery how they managed to bring these weapons into the city.
