Since the cave was a highly defensive location to be attacked, the mercenaries were rather laid back.

There was also plenty of food and wine inside the cave. Besides, they were paid very handsomely to

guard this easy spot, so this had caused them to lower their guards.

Naturally, there was a disadvantage with employing mercenaries as they all had their own self-interests

at heart, producing a group lacking team spirit. As soon as something went wrong, the situation would

get out of hand in no time.

Richard glanced at a drunk soldier coming his way who then greeted him. He greeted back in the same

hoarse voice before the soldier gave him some alcohol, complaining that the new batch of alcohol was

awful.

Thanking him with a smile, Richard continued walking. His aim was not to get alcohol but rather to find

the electrical sources.

Finally, he stopped at a crossroads and stared at a door located there for a while before he walked over

and knocked on it.

Someone opened the door before Richard said to him, “Fresh booze for delivery.”

The man inside immediately went on alert mode. He was in charge of the personnels stationed here

and was responsible for all the surveillance equipment here. He was sure that he had never seen a guy

with such facial features working here before.

In just the split second that their gazes met, Richard made the first move by hitting the man on the

head. Before the person could even react, he had entered the generator room and locked himself in

from the inside.

“Who are you?” The man bellowed while reaching for his gun, but Richard was faster than him. In order

to stop the man from pulling the trigger, Richard sent a few punches his way. Since the man was

already weakened by the initial attack, the consecutives punches made him all dizzy. as the final attack

was aimed at his carotid artery by the bottle that Richard broke.

After the fight, Richard went to the generator and opened the screen door. Looking at the nest of wires

inside, he slowly opened the kettle that he had and poured some water on them, causing electric

sparks to occur everywhere. Then, the room descended into darkness.

Unlocking the door, Richard was greeted by pitch black darkness outside the room, as curses and

sounds of people smashing things on the floor came from the hallway. Obviously, the soldiers were

very upset about the sudden power outage.

Richard smiled as he fired a few shots into the main hall.

Screams of pain echoed around, all the soldiers in the dark took out their guns. In the darkness, the

only sound that could be heard was the sound of the gunshot and the only thing that could be seen was

all the gun sparks that occured each time someone pulled the trigger. The cave had become a

slaughterhouse as everybody inside had lost all sense of direction and logic to the darkness.

The gun sparks kept appearing in the cave and all the screams of pain went on and on in the darkness.

However, as time went by, there were lesser curses, questions and screamings of the soldiers could be

heard. A sickeningly metallic scent of blood slowly wafted through the air which was so unpleasant that

it could. make those who inhaled it puke.

Hiding behind a rock, Richard was silently observing the situation with a sharp and calm gaze.

Soon, the remaining soldiers came to the realization that the people around them were actually their

allies and immediately stopped the fire. Yet, there were only around ten to twenty of them that were still

alive.

So, they decided to regroup in the middle and form a circle, not knowing until now where the enemy

was.

A gunshot then shattered their unity again. Following the gunshot was the person, who tried to

command the entire team earlier, falling down. Instantly, a sea of bullets flew everywhere again.
