The real hunter

"It looks like it was a combat encounter," analyzed the adjutant as he checked the corpses of the seven barbarians through the video feed in the command vehicle.

"It wasn't an encounter." P5092 shook his head and said, "Look at the terrain here. There's only a single mountain path leading through the front and the back, and the terrain is rather narrow too. It's a semi-enclosed space."

"Sir, you mean…" His adjutant was not stupid. He immediately reacted and said, "Of all the locations where the battles happened, the number of barbarian corpses here was the most, with seven of them killed. They were likely responsible for pursuing those two snipers but ended up being led here by them. The unique feature of the terrain here made it so that when the barbarians realized they could not win, they could not escape even if they wanted to. Therefore, those two snipers must've been confident enough to lure them here."
