BXBX NOVEL Chapter 69 - Ulterior Motives
But as he was about to turn around again he heard footsteps. His hands are fidgeting and because of the training, his senses as an Assassin is one of the tops in the squad so if someone was about to attack him it will be probably only the Squad leader. So he wants to bait the person trying to distract him.
He slowly put down the table and in a split second, he drops the tablet on the ground pulling the daggers from his waist.
And when he turned around a masked individual was about to attack him. Fang Shirong was confused he did not know what to do but he quickly raised his daggers to block the attack. *CLINGG* their daggers clashed and the other Squad members were also fighting with unknown individuals.
"Who are you!" Fang Shirong shouted and he pushed the individual back so that he would create a space between him and the attacker, luckily his strength was enough to push back the enemy.
"DIE!" the attacker shouted as he flips his left dagger in a point attack position, Fang Shirong was confused about why is he being attacked.
"Who are you and what is your purpose in attacking me?" Fang Shirong questioned the attacker. But the attack only dashed forward, Fang Shirong whispered "Deceive" and then he created 2 more personas.
"What a trickster you are?" the attacker exclaimed as he dashed forward. But it was too late as Jin was already aiming at him. Jin pulled the trigger,
[Triggering Skill usage chosen] {Registered Skill] [Firing Skill: Rapid Fire ]a blaster-like bullet came out from the barrel. The sound of the bullet being fired was like a blaster but it\'s more compacted power that is being fired from the barrel.
The attacker did not expect that there is a marksman among them. He only knows an archer and an assassin in the squad but not the squad leader. ``The wrong Squad-`` the attacker drops on the ground as he pukes blood. Fang Shirong was about to attack the masked attacker but he saw that Jin was aiming from behind, that is why he just pretends that he will retaliate the attack that will happen to him.
Jin approached the dead body and he noticed something on the arm sleeves and there is a wolf insignia ``I remember a wolf insignia from before, but I forgot who wore that insignia``. He strips it off the shoulder sleeve and puts it in his pocket for research purposes later. "Are you alright brother?" Jin asked as he looked at Fang Shirong. He just nodded as a reply and moved back at the humvee.
Jin followed Fang Shirong, as they were going back at the humvee, He already felt something that Fang Shirong can\'t explain. Because of his reply earlier to him. Jin did pursue that topic again as they both get on the Humvee. Han Zian drives off and heads towards the direction of Safe Zone Delta.
Inside the Humvee, the others have a fine time resting. While Jin reloaded his FXR-Raven and whispered "Zero Eye blue Bullet" After he whispered that a blue tab appeared in front of him
[Zero Eye Blue bullet has been activated by the Bullet Heir] After that his left eye changes into a cross-hair-like eye and it glows soft yellow. And now he was able to see through walls, He can also see heat signatures both humans and monsters. And he was able to see from a 3-dimensional viewpoint. With a 360 degrees visible and 20 km radius.
``I really like this skill it\'s like a damn scanner`` Jin smirked ``It seems it is really peaceful in these parts of the Safe Zone Delta, I am really curious about what happened to the other squads. That will be interesting especially from Sun Xue`` the humvee arrived at the checkpoint entering the Safe Zone Delta. Once again Jin saw the wall. That Separated the outside world of destruction to the inner world of peacefulness.
"We are from N.D.A.M we just got back from a mission." Han Zian to the Patrol Guards. The Patrol Guards saluted Han Zian and let them go. "Well that was quick, did you show your face?" Jin asked, Han Zian replied, "I did sir I think there is a camera scanner when you reveal your face to the soldier."
Jin nodded and agreed to what Han Zian has concluded. Jin slaps the roof of the Humvee to wake up the others who were sleeping. "Alright time to wake up you sleepy heads we are already inside the base. I want all of you to take a shower and take a rest. After that head to the meeting room around 3 PM at the meeting room. I will be reporting the pictures and giving the report to the head instructor."
Jin gets off from the turret and heads down he slings his FXR-Raven. And as he looked around there was still no Humvee that arrived from the other mission. And as if when they left it was like the same as before. And then his squad members replied "Alright, Sir" replied by Qi Meili as she folds her bow. "Got it Sir" Qiao Jiao replied as she pulls her long sword.
Fang Shirong was the only one who did not reply and just headed off, walking towards the barracks. Jin looked at Fang Shirong as he walked away. ``I should talk to him later about what happened`` Jin looked down as the last man gets off from the humvee.
"Han Zian go check on Fang Shirong I don\'t think he is good," Jin said as he looked at Han Zian getting his equipment at the back. "Sure, Sir" Han Zian replied, as he slings his bag onto his shoulder and heads towards the barracks.
After that Jin headed towards the Main headquarters to report what they have done. Upon arriving at the Main Headquarters he entered the glass door and there was 2 officer at the reception. He walked toward the receptionist and said "Excuse me, Sir, I am heading to the Operations commander for Squire Squads? May I ask who will I call?"
The receptionist looked at the haggard face of Jin and then looked back at his monitor. "Well according to the new positions, you will be reporting to the Deputy Commanding officer of the course. Your uniform as I can see is that you are part of the Squad leader program course am I correct?"
Jin looked at the officer in front of him and replied "Ah Yes, Sir I am part of that said program" Jin nodded as he smiles a bit. "Yes, report to the Deputy Commanding officer, wait for a moment I will call her secretary to notify your arrival"
Jin nodded as he goes back to one of the seats that were offered for guests at the headquarters. After 2 minutes the officer at the receptionist. Looked at Jin and said "Squad leader, you are free to go to the 3rd floor last room. That will be the office of the Deputy Commanding officer."
Jin stands up from where he was seating, He then looked at the officer and said "Thank you, Sir" after that he heads towards the stairs. He then arrives at the 3rd floor, and there is also a receptionist. He approached the officer at the receptionist and said.
"May I ask where is the Deputy Commanding officer office?" the officer looked at Jin and said, "You are the Squad leader of the 29th… you are the first one to report, the Deputy commanding officer has been waiting for you it\'s over there at the end of the hall."
Jin arrived at the end of the hall, the last room. His heart was beating not that fast but he was feeling nervous. He looked at the doorknob he sighed so he knocked 3 times first. After that, he heard a soft voice, "Please come in" Jin opened the door and he saw the Deputy Commanding officer at her table writing.
Her office has a lot of decorations and awards. Behind her long table was a grandeur painting of a self-portrait in a formal military uniform with a saber sword and her face looking at the west.
``marvelous office indeed`` Jin entered the officer and snaps his boots and saluted the Commanding officer. ``How come this office is not like a high-tech office its too classical.`` Jin thought as he was saluting the Deputy Commanding officer.
"So you are the first one to report back on the given mission that the training mission has to offer, how is that?" the Deputy Commanding officer looked at him as if she was looking at Jin straight through his soul.
"Well, Ma\'am due to our coordination and due to the performance of my team we had the volcanic minion as a task that can be dealt with. But Ma\'am our fight with the volcanic minion was not that easy due to the terrain of the said location. As you have seen the map that was given to us.. The location of the volcanic minion was one of the hardest locations due to the ruins of the buildings and overall structures that were built there."
