Chapter 370: Losing their Flag
Chapter 370: Losing their Flag
That's right. After they saw their people naked, hanging on the trees, they became so angry that most of the healthy ones didn't even rest. They just decided to start hunting them during the day, locate them so they could attack them during the night.
In the end, aside from the injured ones, no one was able to sleep. Now that they thought about it, most of them were used to not sleeping during missions. However, this time it's different. Their emotions were pretty messed up. Most of them were insulted and angry, they just wanted to have their revenge and kill some people.
This emotional state isn't very good for competitions like this.
"What is that?"
"What?" Viper asked.
"I thought I saw some flashlight that way."
"Huh?" Viper put his goggles on before removing it and using a telescope without night vision. "It's too dark. I can't see anything." Earlier today, the people that were hung woke up and informed them that the armor had some sort of special effects that would render night vision goggles useless.
"There! There! Did you see?"
"What are you talking about? I can't see anything!" Viper said, he tightly held the baton against his chest. There were brass knuckles in his fingers.
"It wasn't there anymore. Maybe they were just fireflies?"
"Fireflies?"
"There! I'm sure it's not some fireflies! Those are definitely flashlights!" Jun said. "Are they I think someone is going to attack us?"
"What?"
"Someone is running towards the tower! Go and alert the people downstairs!" The tower that they were in was tall and slim. It looked just like a medieval watchtower with only one door and a few windows on top of the tower. They put their flag on the topmost part of the tower and the only way to access it is through the main door or climbing the tower. Both are considered difficult because of a few reasons.
The door had the strongest security. It was a thick wooden door that needed a lot of strength to breach without guns or explosives. After going through the door, one needed to fight the guards stationed downstairs before they could reach the stairs that would lead them to the topmost part.
Once they arrive, there will be a few people guarding too. Meaning, another fight would happen.
Jun stared at the three people running towards the tower. Realizing that there were only three people, Jun relaxed but he didn't let his guard down. He knew that three people won't be able to fight against the people downstairs.
While there were only two uninjured people in this tower, the remaining people could still fight against enemies despite having small injuries. They were experienced and older. They can't be underestimated!
"I already informed them!" Viper approached him. "If they are going to breach the front door because they thought we don't have people inside then they made a mistake. Huh? Did he stop running? What is the"
*CLING*
Before the two could react they heard something hit the floor behind them.
"He threw something Isn't that our modified smoke bomb?"
"What the "
The two immediately found something to cover their nose with. However, the smoke made it difficult for them to see the whole top floor now.
"Hmmmmm. Hmmm." Viper opened his mouth, he tried to warn his colleague to be careful as they might climb the instead of breaching the front door. However, the spiciness of the smoke, once he inhaled it through his mouth, made him stopped talking.
"CLING"
Another modified smoke bomb!
Sweat trickled down Viper's back. He wasn't sure why they threw the bomb here. But he would never leave the flag alone. He was forced to use his night-vision goggles. The smoke is really painful to the eyes too!
Now that he had his night-vision goggles, he tried to examine the place and found out that the smoke is really not making him see anything.
'F*ck! How did they get our modified smoke bombs? Wait! That's right! They undressed the eight people that followed them last night. They stole the bombs from those eight people!' Viper thought to himself. Those people are actually using their weapons against them! How hateful!
After struggling for a few seconds, he found his mask and immediately used it.
"Jun!"
"I'm here! They also threw the modified smoke bombs against the door! The smoke is slowly making its way inside!"
"F*ck! What are they planning to do!?"
"They wanted us to run outside! They are smoking us out!" Jun concluded. "Let's stay with the flag. I don't think they could fight their way in. Meaning, they should they are going to climb!" Jun run towards the window. By now, most of the smoke from the two smoke bombs started to dissipate. He used this to his advantage to check the three people. Just as he expected, they were no longer there. "I can't see them!"
"I thought they are going to climb?"
"I They should " Jun hesitated. The tower's topmost floor was surrounded by windows. It had six windows all around it. The two immediately checked all the windows and
'CLING!'
Another smoke bomb!
"Who is throwing them?" Viper couldn't help but asked himself. The windows were already open because of the smoke. So, someone could easily throw another smoke bomb inside. However, they couldn't see anyone below the tower. No one is standing near the tower either!
That was when he realized something.
He was wearing night-vision goggles!
He tried to remove them but the smoke stung his eyes. His face instantly turned ugly as he took a step back and used a wall to support his back. "Against the wall!" He said in a grave tone.
And that was when it started.
He felt something hit his neck. A palm? He instantly grabbed his neck and let out a few coughs. "Who's there?"
'THUD'
"Jun!????" he called out. "Hey!" What is happening? Unfortunately for him, he didn't have the time to find out as he felt something hit his head, instantly rendering him unconscious. And just like that, the flag that the two people were protecting vanished as if it was taken by ghosts.
When the smoke dissipated, the injured ones discovered that they already lost their flag.
