************** MC"s POV ***********" Bang! "
..
..
My ears perk as the sound of gunshots enter my ears.
They are finally here.
d.a.m.n it
We haven"t even found the jamming formation yet.
Besides what"s more important is that Axle haven"t returned yet. I need to find him.
" Girls you stay here for a while. I will see what"s happening out there. " I speak to the girls and they return a nod to me.
As I prepare to activate my Stealth, the sound of rapid footsteps along with the gunshots enter my ears.
"Tap!"
"Tap!"
..
..
Finally, I could see the person enter the room.
It was Axle.
Covered in bruises and cuts. His clothes seemed to be dyed in a blood red.
"Slam!"
Entering the room, he hurriedly slam the door shut and finally fell on his b.u.t.ts.
" You all right?". I asked him although it was very apparent.
" Do I look like one? ", He replied with scorn.
" We need to take those guys out or we won"t be able to destroy the formation." I speak while gesturing him to move.
"You don"t need to do that. I already found out a way to contact that man before destroying the IT room.", Axle spoke with a smile.
" When will he be here? ", I couldn"t help but get excited.
" Well, I couldn"t get through him. He didn"t pick up the phone ". Axle spoke dumping a bucket of cold water on my head.
F*ck!
We are dead!
" You don"t need to worry. I have left a SOS for him through a message. Beside look what I found." , Axle spoke before taking out a piece of paper from his trouser.
I took the picture in my hand before breaking out in a smile.
This was a life saver.
It was the layout of the whole area.
And what could save our life was right below us.
I look at Axle and find out the same smile on his face. He was thinking the same.
The Sewers.
Below this building, at least a 5 meter deep was a sewer connecting to the drainage system in Arcane.
.....( MC"s Listening ability ) .....
" Where did he go? "
" Spread out search for him. If we don"t find him, then we will all be dead"
The voice entered my ears.
They were close.
…
…
" Break the floor ". I ask Axle.
" You break it, I am almost out of Mana. " He asks me while giving me a look as if " look at my condition ".
d.a.m.n it
How do I say that I don"t even have any ounce of Mana in my body.
" Why is she still tied up ? ". Suddenly I hear Axle"s voice.
" Huh..".
I see him pointing his finger towards Lisa.
" She doesn"t need help.", As I speak I could still see her gritting her teeths.
Talk about stubbornness.
Suddenly Axle gets up moved toward Lisa.
" What are you doing? ", As he approached me, I whisper.
" It is partly my fault. Even if I don"t like her. I will set her free. Or one day, I won"t be able to face my brother ". He speaks before pa.s.sing me.
..
" Clang!"
The chains broke after a strong hit from the rifle.
" What"s your name? Tell me. I will make sure you properly get rewarded ". Lisa speaks while giving me a disdainful gaze.
" I don"t need your reward, I will already consider it a reward if I don"t get to see your face everyday ".
Lisa"s eyes widen. The expression on her face couldn"t be described in words. But I bet she wouldn"t forget this day anytime soon.
" Pfft! ".
Hearing Axle, I couldn"t help but control myself.
Now act arrogant.
I secretly give Axle a thumbs up seeing him walk back towards me.
…( MC"s Hearing ability ).....
" Did you check the storage room ?".
" No, I didn"t "
" b.a.s.t.a.r.d..then what you are waiting for "
….
...
...
My face gets dark.
They are coming.
" Hmph...I won"t let myself owe you guys. Let me show you my power. If I heard it correctly, you were talking about breaking through the floor right." Lisa finally spoke with an arrogance plastered on her face.
Yes
She could help us.
..
" Bang! "
" The door is locked. He"s definitely in there. Everyone break it ".
This time everybody could hear them. They were before the door.
The girls s.h.i.+vered at the situation. They look terrified
" Axle! ", I scream.
At my shout, Axle threw the rifle straight into the air towards me.
I jumped in the air to catch the rifle and I reloaded it as I landed. I could see some dim and half faded runes on the gun.
" Axle move the girls to one of the corners of the room. Lisa destroy the floor in the center of the room for us to escape. I will hold them down ".
As I ended my words, everyone had already sprung into actions.
I pointed the gun towards the entrance which had several dents on it after being continuously pounded.
The door was made of steel and it wouldn"t break so heavily.
Let me give you a warning.
I thought of shooting a bullet at the door. After all if they knew there was someone waiting on the other side with a gun in his hand, it would make them hesitate.
Even if it was for a second, it would still buy us time.
" Bang! "
As I pulled the trigger, I couldn"t help but curse.
F*ck
Is this a shotgun?
The bullet made a hole in the door.
« Host has defeated an enemy, gained 200 FP »
A notification appeared in front of me.
" Bang! "
" Bang! "
..
..
I started shooting unrestrainedly and the system"s sweet Melody continued to ring in my ears.
« Host has defeated an enemy, gained 200 FP »
« Host has defeated an enemy, gained 200 FP »
« Host has defeated an enemy, gained 200 FP »
..
..
" Ahhh.."
" Ahhh…"
Screams filled out the hallway along with the smell of blood and dozens of bodies.
….
" Are you done or not? I am almost out of Ammo ". I speak while finding myself in sweat.
How many guys were there? Did the entire troops were deployed to catch us.
" Click! Click!..."
s.h.i.+t!
I am out of Ammo .
" Clang! ". The door fell on the ground.
" I am done, Lisa"s voice enter my ears as the ground shook with a rumbling noise. "
" Boom! "
