Chapter 601: Attacking (2/2)
Now, why don't we make a move and secure the Volcanic Cannon and the nearest base of the Union sect now?
Do you have a flying beast?”
”Yes, I do. ”
”Then let's go.”
The Volcanic cannon is three hours away on this beast and when they arrived, the guards stationed here from the Nagin Castle are having a hard time.
There are fifty of them and there are signs of battle. Half the group is injured and there are some corpses around them.
The volcanic cannon looked like a volcano but it is too steep and straight and it is an active volcano. From what he heard, it shoots the resources out of it every month and the quota for this month would be in a week. This is the best time for the Union sect to trap this as they would get an immediate benefit right after and even if it was taken away later, that would be worth it.
He landed at the base and the squad leader came running to him and asked.
”Who are you guys?” He is a human and most of the squad members are human too and the rest of the non-human is all half-Naga.
Sam flashed his badge and asked.
”Which squad are you guys?”
”Squad 30.”
”Okay now, what happened here?”
”They are chipping us down. Our squad used to have seventy members. But now, there are only fifty members. They are just attacking and retreating on the flying beasts and long-range attacks. They are more people, more resources, more beasts, more strength, and more support.
They are fucking my ass here.”
His voice sounded frustrating.
”Why are they not sending the reinforcements?” Sam asked.
Chatur is the one who replied though.
”The political conflicts within. The Union sect is set on getting this no matter what and no commander wants to send his own squad to get them. And they don't want to weaken the remaining resource points and that led to the six special commanders.”
Sam looked at the squad leader and said.
”I will need you guys to get ready, in a few hours their base is going to go down. I don't know what you guys do, but find more people to hold it down before their reinforcements come again.”
With that Sam and Chatur started walking away.
The squad leader was dumbfounded.
He didn't know what happened, all he knows is some youngster comes here and flashes a special commander badge on his face and then says, the base of the opponents that they are facing for days and lost twenty men.
After some thinking, he just considered this as a cocky man trying to show off.
But what he doesn't know is Sam is walking straight towards a place that could give a proper view of the base.
They walked towards a cliff nearby and entered a cave that was covered with a load of soil and rocks a few feet below the surface.
After climbing into that opening and moving high enough, Sam used his back and legs to stay there and Chatur is right below him.
Not many people pay attention because the crack is tapered inside and from outside of the cliff, it wouldn't look like it could fit a person like that.
”I must say chatur, you could pick some great positions.
I can look at the whole castle from here and this is exactly what I need to finish off this base.”
”What can you do from here? It is too small to use archery. It can be used to keep an eye on their movements. Nothing more.”
”In normal cases, Yes. But it is me here and all I would need is this place to do what needs to be done. Now, let us finish this thing and have a great meal with whatever local specialties we can get in this area.”
