Chapter 1037
Adrian tried to come up with a better idea but came to the conclusion that they would have to keep moving that night to reach the enemy base in time."Tell them to rest for another half an hour. After that, we press on," Adrian said to Gloria, who nodded and passed on the message.Half an hour soon passed and the group departed. A few scouts in front were paving the way with their flashlights on, while the others remained vigilant as they kept their eyes peeled on their surroundings. It was much harder to travel through a rainforest at night, but members of Wyvern Peak were used to walking such arduous paths. After about two hours, Gloria confirmed the direction they were moving in, and Lena—the doctor and biologist—proved to be crucial. She could determine whether there were any dangers around them based on the terrain, environment, and temperature, making her an excellent guide. Her knowledge of the area was evident. Two hours later, they entered an area filled with mountains,

Soon, Gloria snapped her fingers. "Let's take a look at the topographic map!" She turned on her communicator and brought up an enlarged map of Serpent's Haven."Dragon Peak's base may be on the plains, but there's a mountain about two hundred meters behind it, and it's around five hundred meters tall. If we rig the parachutes to the containers and modify the parachutes to be opened via remote control, it’d be a done deal, right?" Gloria smiled."The problem with that plan is how are we to get our hands on some parachutes? The ones we came in are probably all riddled with holes," Alan said. "We're not the ones using the parachute, so all we have to do is mend them just enough to carry the weight of the containers."Lucas piped up, "This sounds like a good plan. We're at a numbers disadvantage, so going up against them head-on will surely end in casualties. We should try Gloria’s plan if we want to ensure we don't lose any more of our people."Adrian looked at Lena. "Are you anxiou

Lena called out, "Catch!"She fished out a large bag of sulfur and threw it to Adrian, who then opened it up and scattered its contents all over. The snakes retreated when the sulfur landed on the ground, while Adrian rounded them up and executed them.Lucas waved to signal a few others to pick up the containers, and they continued on their journey. The snake-filled containers were extremely heavy, but it was not a problem with ten people carrying each of them.The entire ordeal had taken up two hours of their precious time, so everyone picked up the pace.The rainforest was extremely silent at night, with the occasional howls from wild beasts and a few animals feasting on their meals. The unit continued its journey without any rest, with Gloria leading the way. Throughout the night, they did not come across any enemies, nor did they find any allies.At dawn, they finally got close to the enemy base. The bright sun rose and shone its rays across the rainforest before Adrian and th

"Please don't do this," Lena cried. She injected Ridge with adrenaline and was now using the defibrillator on him, causing his body to jerk vigorously. "Increase the voltage! Clear!" Lena yelled as she used the defibrillator again, and again…Everyone looked stunned as they stared at Ridge on his stretcher. All of them, including Gloria, shed tears. They felt like time had stopped. Meanwhile, somewhere in a faraway village deep within the mountains, a beautiful girl stood by her village's entrance, looking toward a large mountain to the north. Her emotions seemed to have resonated with her loved one as her fists were clenched, but she could not fathom why she felt so heartbroken at that very moment. "You can do this…" she murmured.“I know you can."Don't give up! "Don't ever give up! "Please!"The girl's eyes welled up with tears rolling down her cheeks. She looked helplessly toward the large mountain while calling out to her lover. Meanwhile, the defibrillator was u

Everyone pushed forward, while Adrian followed the ones at the front and asked, "What's your situation, Steel? How many people do you have? Are any of them injured?""A lot of my men got stranded. I currently have more than two thousand men in my unit, with more than two hundred injured, but minor. There are only two of them with severe injuries.""Give me a moment. I'm going to lock onto your position right now.""Okay," Steel replied. "Crystal, where’s Steel's signal coming from?"Back at Novemton headquarters, Crystal had been fully focused over the past two days, tirelessly providing support. "Found him. He's near the swamps, which is about ten kilometers straight ahead of you."When Adrian heard this, he quickly said, "Steel, order your men to stay put. I'll reach you in about twenty minutes.""Yes, sir.” Adrian’s unit picked up the pace, and they managed to meet up with Steel and his men inside the rainforest in less than twenty minutes. Everyone was excited to see Adri

"Yes, sir!" The main unit arrived at the edge of the rainforest after ten minutes, heading toward the valley plain with a few mountains nearby. The plain was located on the outskirts of two mountain valleys, with a lake in the middle, where a few enemies were fooling around. A temporary base was built near the lake, where a helicopter was parked outside.Adrian was a little hesitant to proceed further, so he took out his binoculars and scanned the area. "Ivy, Eira, Blaze, Klause, locate the nearby sentries and eliminate them with your daggers before they spot us.""On it," they replied. Adrian and the rest hid in the bushes and stayed very still while waiting for Ivy and the others to contact them. After approximately five minutes, Ivy said, "I found six of them at my location. They're all dead now.""Done on my end too.""There are some in the mountains behind us. We'll need to go around the back to eliminate them. Get ready, sir, you’ll have to move fast once those guys hav
Chapter 1043
The people from Dragon Peak were absolutely confused when they saw the airdrop containers, including Thiago.Watching the containers descend toward their base, Thiago quickly said, "Everyone, stand down. There might be something dangerous inside."Since the containers were directly above the base, it would surely damage their structures when the containers landed, which was why Thiago did not ask for them to be shot down.Due to the wind's speed and direction, the containers' movements were constantly shifting. Somewhere inside the rainforest, Gloria was keeping an eye on the wind's speed and direction, so when she saw these changes, she quickly said, "The wind's getting stronger. We don’t have much time left."Adrian immediately ordered, "Alan, Lucas, Steel, shoot down those parachutes and have the remote at the ready. We're opening the containers the minute they land on the enemy base.""Yes, sir!" The trio waved, and their men who had been hiding near the rear-end mountains b

Steel and the others, who were on the mountain roads, gave out the order and said, "All units, protect our vanguards!""Charge!""Charge!"Ra-ta-ta-ta!!!Bullets were being fired from all directions.With the onslaught, large numbers of Dragon Peak soldiers gathered outside their base fell dead before they even knew what happened. "We're under attack! Return fire now!" Thiago yelled as he turned around, seeing his enemies emerging from the rainforest.As he yelled, Thiago saw a figure closing in on him, and fast. Without any time to react, his jaw dropped as he recognized the person getting closer and closer to him. He yelled, "War Legate Draco! I can explain…"Yet, Adrian arrived and immediately swung his dagger, and Thiago's head rolled.After eliminating Thiago, Adrian yelled, "I've taken Thiago down! The rest of you, lay down your weapons if you want to live!"The sound of gunshots providing cover for Adrian and his team continued. Blaze, Wildfire, Nyssa, Jenine, and the
