"Ahhhhhhh!!!"
'Boom!'
.
The soldiers didn't care about these men's grievances and quickly took them out.
"Captain, This is Unit 5 reporting in from entrance 5."
All clear.
Over."
"Good!
Unit 2, what about your end.
Over."
"All clear sir.
Over."
"Unit 3 and 4 report in!"
"Good to go."
"All good, sir."
"Good.
All units standby and what for my signal before moving in.
Over."
With that, Scott had the rest reloaded their weapons speedily.
And when they were done, he called in once again and told all units to break all exits and move in.
They would leave no corner unturned.
'Boom!'
'Thang!'
They threw several grenades at the entrance door, but targeted them towards the hinges of the doors.
One should know that this was a palace.
And the entrance doors alone were thick, heavy and made of metal.
Kings in this era liked to be mighty dragons.
So how can their main entrance not look mighty?
All other entrance doors were just large double-sided doors.
But the main one looked more like a gate rather than a door.
So except they launched high-grade missiles or something more powerful, these doors won't fall.
That's why Scott purposely targeted the hinges and stone regions holding the doors together instead.
Additionally, they also drove the truck a bit closer and used the machine guns there to make the job go faster.
And just like that, a single side of the giant door fell.
'Pang!
And as soon as it fell, another storm of arrows shot through mercilessly.
.
'Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!'
Scott and his men had already anticipated it, so they only stood on the side of the wall adjacent the entrance door and waited for the soldiers in the trucks to take action.
'Di-Di-Di-Di-Di!'
Once again, senior machine gun had saved the day.
The enemy didn't know what hit them.
And now, there was chaos inside.
But to confuse the enemy further, Scott and 3 others threw smoke bombs in the room.
They dared not use tear gas, since they didn't have their masks on and weren't ready to feel the peppery burn in their eyes.
So they used harmless smoke bombs instead.
And those inside almost flipped.
"Fire!
Fire!
They're shooting flaming arrows at us.
Stay away from there now!"
Immediately, the guards stepped backwards in fear.
And in a flash, the thick smokey flames that were previously floating around the door seemed to have multiplied even more.
It rapidly clawed its way into the room, covering as much space as it could.
.
The guards looked at the scene in alarm.
The building was all stone and no wood.
So a single burning arrow that came flying into the room couldn't create such rapid flames.
What the hell was going on?
This..was this the monster that killed their men outside?
They heard some of them say that the smoke had a monster in it.
So were they going to be killed by this invisible monster?
Too late!
'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!'
Scott and his men ran in pairs and quickly shot their targets.
And by the time the enemy realized it, it was already too late.
Both archers and swordsmen did their best to defend against Scott and his men.
But the results were inevitable.
They had bullets reeled into their skulls.
Even those who tried to attack the soldiers from above the stairs were shot too.
But the battle took longer this time, as more and more archers on the 2nd floor tried to take them down from the stairway.
And so the soldiers swiftly hid behind several statues, pillars and objects around, while taking their shots.
'Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!'
'Bang! Bang! Bang!'
The battle was fierce.
Nonetheless, they successfully made their way towards the second floor and reunited with other units who were also moving up too.
Now, they just had one goal in mind.
Capture the main culprits in charge of King Micheal's demise.
"Move out!"
"Yes sir!"
(*^*)
.
Meanwhile, on the very last floor, Nopline, Kamara, John (Micheal's brother) and Lecter (Kamara's son), were all scared silly by the sudden invasion.
Nopline had even wanted to fly out the window in fear.
His men had tried to talk him out of it.
But when he opened the window determination, he saw the destruction level outside and almost fainted.
F***!
Which demon did he offend to get such bad luck?
At this moment, his I.Q was offline.
Likewise, even Kamara and the rest were panicky too.
It took them a while before they calmed down.
"This attack pattern is similar to those men who took that bastard ex-husband of mine way."
"Really?"
"Sure of it!
I can never forget that day, even if I wanted to.
Could it be that brat, Astar?"
"Might be.
Only he would have a strong motive.
As crown prince, he's probably here for revenge after watching his father die in his presence." John stated calmly, while his brain went to work.
His brother married 6 wives who bore him several children.
And so far, Kamara, Nopline and himself had killed off 4 of those wives and their children.
As for the surviving wives, 1 escaped with crown prince Astar and her daughters... while the other was rescued alongside king Micheal.
Thinking about it more, only they would have the guts to go after Nopline.
They were probably blinded with rage and had been planning this attack for months now.
It's been over 9 months since Micheal was rescued.
So it's safe to say that after putting burying him, they started preparing for Astar to take the crown... which was acceptable.
But how on earth did they know that he, Nopline and Kamara would be here all at once?
No one knew his whereabouts and many always assumed that he was back in his assigned city.
He had always been a mystery to many.
So who informed them of his being here?
Sure enough, there was a spy amongst his men.
Similarly, he guessed that there were spies within Kamara and Nopline's men too.
John frowned as he thought about it more.
He began analyzing everything silently while coming up with their plan of action if they got caught.
.
"What do we do?
What do we do?
That bastard is going to kill us."
"Calm down everyone.
I have a plan."
