King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer-Chapter 736 - 681: Prince, Melee
The battle in the village ended quickly, as the terrorists, thoroughly outmatched in weapons, personnel quality, and combat will, were swiftly eradicated.
It wasn't until everyone regrouped that Joe Ga realized that all those who had stayed behind to hold off the terrorists were women.
Of the nine female soldiers, only four survived; and Simona, who had been snatched from the brink of death by the medic, not only suffered severe injuries but also lost an eye.
'Crow' held these female soldiers in high regard and volunteered his men to search and collect the bodies of those who had fallen.
When Joe Ga saw the bodies, he noticed that each of the Kurdish female soldiers had a massive wound caused by a grenade explosion.
There was no need to guess; it was the proud shot they took to avoid being captured by ISIS.

The ISIS fighters feared the Kurdish female soldiers, not because they were afraid to die or that the Kurdish women were superior in combat but because their teachings told them that men killed by women couldn't enter heaven.
This led the ISIS fighters to be exceptionally cruel to the Kurdish female soldiers, hence the tradition among them to always carry a grenade for self-detonation.
When Joe Ga saw Mandy pull a grenade from her crotch, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat...
No wonder he had always seen Mandy clutching at her waistband; he had thought she was worried about being violated, but she had actually hidden a grenade in her trousers—what if it accidentally went off?
Watching the few women converse and then look at him with odd glances, Joe Ga didn't notice the change in Nis's complexion; feeling a bit awkward, he turned away from the female soldiers' gaze, stepped outside, and began to make calls to arrange for a rescue...
Polaris wasn't suitable for transporting the wounded, as the excessive jostling might cause them to expire before receiving treatment.
Two Black Hawk Helicopters sponsored by Titan Group came in handy at this point, preparing to take off in half an hour.
One was bound for Bernal Town to pick up 'Professor', while the other would head to the small village to retrieve the critically wounded soldier.
Joe Ga couldn't just wait around here; fires in the distance indicated that Team B was already engaging ISIS fighters, and it seemed to be going smoothly.
So he decided to leave Jazz Squad to protect the injured female soldiers, while he led Team A and the guide to Bernal Town at increased speed.
As long as 'Professor' was safely evacuated, he could regroup with the others...
Even if he had to turn the place upside down, he would find those bastards from the armored group!
When setting out, Joe Ga noticed something off about Nis's complexion; thinking it was the ordeal of the Kurdish female soldiers that upset Nis, he didn't give it much thought.
But after their convoy had traveled over twenty kilometers on a dirt road and Nis's car fell behind, Joe Ga finally realized something was amiss.
Stopping the vehicle and running back several hundred meters, Joe Ga, to his disbelief, saw the normally stoic Nis showing symptoms of carsickness. He ran to her side and gently patted her back, asking, "What's wrong with you?"
Nis looked at Joe Ga with a worried expression, forged a small smile, and said, "It's alright, I just feel a little unwell, maybe from drinking some cold water after the parachute jump."
With a glance at the exceptionally bumpy Polaris, she chuckled and added, "Or maybe it's because this type of vehicle is really rough.
It's okay, we need to hurry. We must ensure 'Professor' is escorted out first..."
Joe Ga touched Nis's forehead with his hand, then frowned and nodded, saying, "Hang in there, it's just a dozen more kilometers to Bernal Town. They have a doctor there, I'll have them check on you.
If you're really not feeling well, you can head back first with the helicopter."
Nis nodded tenderly, then gave Joe Ga a push and said, "Don't mind us; we can keep up..."
Kitten watched Joe Ga leave, then the lead car started moving again. She glanced at Nis in the passenger seat and after a moment's hesitation, started the car and said, "Are you pregnant?"
Nis froze, then clutching her lower abdomen said, "I don't know, it should be impossible. I've always..."
Upon hearing this, Kitten rolled her eyes and said, "You've always been on the pill, but you certainly didn't realize Hu Lang had replaced all your birth control pills with vitamins."
When Nis heard this, she covered her abdomen in disbelief and said, "That can't be, why would he do that?"
Kitten responded with a wrinkled nose, "What else could it be? He's scared of losing you...
Our dear Hu Lang would rather keep us in a safe place!"
Then, with a tone mixing envy and relief, Kitten added, "He knows you won't leave his side, but he's scared of you constantly taking risks with him.
We all know how much he loves thrills and that his job can never be completely free from danger.
He's searching for a balance in his way that he believes is best..."
After pondering for a long time, Nis looked at Kitten, who was driving, and asked, "What would you do if you were in my situation?"
Without hesitation, Kitten answered, "I wish... I haven't missed a single one of those damned vitamins!"
