Ancient Tears BloodLine

Tier-8 Iron Post City,

Remington Talley couldn't digest the fact that his worst nightmare had come true. The Iron Hammer team lost two more members. Now the team is left with just 3 members.

From looking at their haggard expressions, Remington gets the feeling that it's difficult for them to continue the mission.

Among three of them, the middle one is the leader and his friend, Mervin Waller. And the one who sat right beside him is Spencer Gill, Fire element Middle Level Special Trainee, and the last one is Gavin Cowen, Earth element Middle Level Special Trainee.

The atmosphere became solemn. Remington saw no one was ready to talk about what happened back in the forest. From his experience, he has already seen through some things. Remington thought they suffered from the backhand of those guys.

The iron hammer team is not weak. So why the state of their current condition? It's because of their unwillingness to give in.

Remington knows that whenever this team faced oppression from those strong teams, they fought back.

Which led to the loss of lives and resources. Thinking about those previous events, Remington sighs.

On the other hand, Mervin Waller clenches his fists in sheer anger. The sheer anger that he feels towards himself The inability to fight back and the later consequences faced by the team His friends and colleagues, whoever joined because of him, were reduced to bones.

Seeing the state of their leader, the two warriors beside him also kept silence. They were not in the right state of mind to console him. It's already a miracle for them to escape alive with their leader.

Time went on.

​ Finally, Remington broke the silence by asking, "Mervin, can you tell me now?" What exactly happened? "

Hearing his words, Mervin retracted his thoughts from his painful memories. Then he raised his head to look at Remington.

He slowly opened his mouth and said, "It's all due to the Black Fist Team."

"Back Fist Team, 9th strongest team?" Remington muttered.

Mervin nodded his head and continued to say, "Yeah, it's actually those guys. When we were fighting against those bandit groups, These people from the Black Fist Team are actually waiting behind us. "

Then he added further, "When we finally killed those bandits, these guys ambushed us." Ron and Jackson died in their hands. We were forced to escape from them. Fortunately, three of them succeeded in slipping away from their hands.

Remington breaks out in a cold sweat. Typically, the top five teams engage in this type of bullying. teams don't have any courage at all. So he is surprised by these changes.

Looking at Mervin, Remington asked, "Is it true?" If this news is true, then the survivability of other teams also becomes questionable.action

Mervin said, "Yes, at first I was too surprised by them." Before this incident, whenever we encountered other teams, we would separate from them. But these guys targeted us right from the start. "

Remington thought this was a very serious development. Before the next mission, it's best for the team to find the reason behind this.

Remington thought about something and asked, "Did any of you offend them in any way previously?"

Mervin shook his head, then he glanced at two members beside him. Spencer and Gavin shook their heads at the same time.

For Remington, the information is important to him. either for the iron hammer team's safety or for collecting intelligence. Both of the proposals were crucial to him.

Shaking his head, Reminginton asked, "What is your plan?"

Mervin sighed and said, "I'm going to quit and disband the team forever."

Remington wasn't surprised; he had expected this. This blow is very hard. For a bandit hunting team to get approval, they need to have a minimum of three members in the team.

Remington had already promised this to the young man (Zack). Seeing the current situation, he didn't have the heart to convince them. It's better for Mervin and others to drop this mission and get back to their previous lives.

I'll try to persuade the young man tomorrow. This bandit hunting mission is getting more and more dangerous. "I don't want that young man to lose his life on this mission," Remington said in his heart.

Then, looking at three of them before him, Remington answered, "Okay, I'll talk to the manager about this tomorrow." You can go back and rest. "

Mervin simply nodded his head and left with his two team members to rest.

Seeing the disappearance of these two, Remington sent a message to Burke Trade Centre's manager.

Then, in order to collect details about the Black Fist Team. Remington decided to contact East Wood Company.

East Wood Company sells weapons of all types. Remington believes they must have been aware of the recent changes taking place within the city.

decided to visit them tomorrow. When it comes to the young man (Zack), he has been demoted to second priority.

The following day,

(From MC's POV),

I woke up early and later had breakfast at the hotel's restaurant itself. Then, after getting changed to good attire, I waited in my hotel room for quite some time.

"Remington told me to wait for the meeting with the team." But so far I hadn't received any calls from him. " I muttered to myself.

Then I thought about something. Maybe the iron hammer team has not yet arrived. Shaking my head, I decided to contact him. Yesterday, I got his contact info.

I called him via Sci-Fi Watch.

Time went on.

Unfortunately, the call was not connected. "What's going on?" I grunted. Won't the guy backtrack all of a sudden?

My expression turned a bit solemn.

Shaking my head, I thought that wouldn't be the case. I should wait a few more hours to see Meanwhile, I decided to contact Uncle James.

....

On the other hand,

Remington Talley closed his tent and left the camping site with other team members.

On the way, all of them avoided contact with other team members. In particular, everyone increased their pace when they spotted top teams.

Soon, four of them entered the city. Remington directly led them towards Burke Trading Centre.

On the way, Remington received a call from Zack. After noticing it, he cancelled the call. He decided to accommodate them first.

Three of them followed him silently. just as they continued to walk. Remington received another call from Zack. This time it ranged continuously.

Seeing the call, Remington cancelled it. But Mervin noticed the changes and asked, "What is happening?" Do you have any other work? "

Remington smiled and answered, "No, this call is related to a business deal. This call would take hours to attend. That's why I cancelled it and decided to attend later.

Mervin nodded in understanding.

Soon they come across the Burke Trade Centre building.

This building structure looks like a tower. It has 10 floors. When they came inside the building, Remington contacted the manager.

After getting his reply, Remington confirmed that the manager is still in the building.

Then he led everyone inside, after arranging for them to stay in the waiting area. Remington walked towards the manager's room.

"Creak," the door opens.

Inside the cabin,

An old man is sitting behind the desk.

Seeing the person, Richmond greeted him and told him about the situation.

Manager Peter, He is 60 years old.

Since the launch of the company, he has been part of it. After hearing the situation, Manager Peter's expression condensed.

From the beginning, he opposed the idea of forming a bandit hunting team. It's not their cup of tea, but unfortunately, some of the protectors sided with Mervin and joined his bandit hunting team.

After several gruelling defeats, their team is now left with three members.

On the other hand, Remington is really tense. Forget about the bandits' hunting team, he himself is not sure whether they can secure their old jobs.

At the very beginning, the old man opposed the idea. But everyone sided with Mervin. They were on the same page as Mervin to eradicate bandits.

Now that he thought about the old memories, Reminginton sighed inside.

The atmosphere becomes solemn for a moment. Neither of them were ready to speak about the issue. Where Remington hoped that the old man would give another leash of life to them.

He also stated that if he disagrees, Mervin will spend his entire heart seeking vengeance. He will add a few other members to the team. Then he will lead others on the mission.

Remington sighed, imagining it. He is afraid it will repeat the vicious cycle again.

Without knowing about the recent developments, it's foolish to think about the mission.

On the other hand, manager Peter fell into contemplation. Actually, he doesn't want them back as a protector. But the current situation of their trade centre is in a critical condition.

Burke Trade Centre urgently needs well-trained protectors. Since there is a vacancy, he finally agreed to reappoint them. But he also hopes that Mervin will listen to his words.

Manager Peter sighed and looked at Reminginton, "Alright, our trade centre urgently needs protectors." I'm ready to reappoint them, but on one condition. "

Remington was surprised by his words and asked, "What condition?"

Manager Peter replied, "They should forget about the bandit hunting mission."
