Caitlyn's expression looked dark. The barrier that encompassed the region of the Fierce Bulls Gang was stronger than she expected, and as time went by, her side suffered numerous severe injuries. Fortunately, these men gritted their teeth and continued her assault despite their injuries.
With complicated expressions, she glanced at her beloved comrades and her expression hardened. No matter what, I will make them pay for what they did. She venomously stared at the distant tower.
"Miss Boss! If we keep this up, the barrier will collapse in ten minutes!" A man whose body drenched in his own scarlet blood shouted, his hands didn't even stop for a second as he fiercely hurled bottles after bottles of explosives at the barrier.
Their concentrated attack on the barrier slowly consumed its energy, and once it breaks, their crew would finally be able to infiltrate but what happens next? Her comrades looked battered and bedraggled, yet those bastards in the barrier didn't even have an ounce of injury because of its protection.
Even if they could destroy their barrier, it doesn't necessarily mean that they could take the flag. Especially with their current condition.
"If we had a Divine Art..." She thought about Charlotte's display of power, if she had such an overwhelming Divine Art, she could just storm her way in and take the flag in a straightforward way.
The men around her also thought about this matter. But apart from endlessly cursing Dan and his gay lover's cowardice, they could not do anything. After all, the two of them had the right to decide if they going to help or not.
But still, their display of easily departing from the Gang made the men annoyed and angered at their actions. But at the same time, they bitterly chuckled. No matter how much they wanted to beat the two into a pulp. Once they lose this war, they would lose everything along with their lives.
"All Squad, focus fire! As long as we break through this barrier, we can definitely win this!" Caitlyn shouted. Summoning the might of her cultivation base, she sent waves after waves of Qi towards the barrier which vibrated upon impact.
At the Fierce Bulls Gang side. At the front lines. Commander Bloody Dog mockingly stared at the struggle that their enemy did. The matter of the barrier's destruction didn't dissipate him and his squad member's morale. After all, they had the expert, Karthus at their side.
Even if they managed to destroy the barrier, they would still be annihilated by Karthus or destroyed by the innumerable traps that they placed around the barrier's perimeter. His men continued their counter-attacks, but their movements looked casual and sluggish compared to the Jollibee Gang's attacks.
Evidently, they didn't think much about the measly ability of their enemies. Some even yawned and started leaning on the walls while some carried pillows and embraced it as they took a nap amidst the destruction and deafening sound around them.
When the Jollibee Gang saw their actions. Their expressions twisted in anger and their attacks intensified. They didn't want anything other than to pummel their enemy on the ground and annihilate them thoroughly.
But their actions garnered the mocking of the Fierce Bulls Gang, some even moved closer at the barrier and flashed their butts towards the former.
Caitlyn's expression looked darker than a kettle's bottom. Her figure incessantly trembled in indignance. Staring at her enemies her eyes flashed in a scarlet light akin to that of a carnivorous beast.
Commander Bloody Dog merely shrugged before Caitlyn's ferocious expression, "Witnessing such a fine woman displaying such vulgar face," He shook his head, "Well, it doesn't matter, once this is all over, I'm sure Boss will grant you to me anyway and when that time comes," His eyes flickered in a light of utmost lust, "I hope you don't disappoint me..."
He leaned on the wall for a moment and suddenly. His comrades' anguish cries filled with despair and fear, resonated in the area. Taking his spear, he realized that his troops started falling on the ground like coconuts falling from trees.
"What the hell is going on?!" The strange phenomenon made him aghast and his hairs stood on its end. The despairing cries around him continued, and despite the fact that there was no one that attacked his comrades. They still crumbled, one after another.
"What the actual fuck..." He violently cursed. Witnessing that his brothers' fell on the ground without any indication of a nearby attack. His years of experience when it comes to battle told him that the enemy was attacking from a safe distance.
However, realizing that he could not track this mysterious assailant's position. His expression twisted into despair as he hid before a thick wall of wood as he furtively glanced at the area.
"Just what kind of weapon is he using that he's not even missing?!" He panicked. The enemy's terrifying accuracy horrified him. However, when he remembered his position as the Commander of the Fierce Bulls Gang. He manifested his Qi and formed a barrier around his barrier as he shouted,
"Everyone! Take cover behind walls and continue the att-guah!" He spat a mouthful of blood. Before he could finish his instructions, a sharp pain struck his chest and when he glanced at it. He found a bloody hole that pierced straight into his heart.
Staring at the pale expressions of his fellow comrades. His vision tunneled and all the hopes and dreams that he envisioned after this war was over. Collapsed into smokes.
With the defeat of their commander and under the attacks of this ghostly Assassin that they could never see nor track. The remaining members of the Fierce Bulls Gang frontlines madly ran towards the tower, all the while throwing their weapons behind.
Caitlyn and her comrades that continued their fierce attack realized that her enemy stopped counter-attacking. Narrowing her eyes to look. She saw the haunting scene of their enemies' dead bodies littered on the ground with a bloody hole in their head or chest.
She knitted her eyebrows, Just who helped us? She inwardly thought but upon seeing the cracks that dotted the barrier, she continued her attack with even more fervor than before.
"Just what is going on here?! Who is attacking us?!" The commander of the second line of defense, Fierce Carabao violently cursed. Since he was in the center of the formation. He could see the scene of carnage and the moments where his fellow brothers lifelessly collapsed on the ground.
Knitting his eyebrows, he racked his brain in tracing the mysterious assailant's whereabouts, but because of the numerous distractions around him such as the constant deafening roar that ripped through the air. The minute traces of the enemy disappeared like smoke.
"Shit, the barrier is about to die...Brothers! Prepare yourself!" With his command, the men behind him prepared their weapons. Staring at the distance. The moment that the barrier collapsed, Fierce Carabo raised his weapon and opened his mouth to shout.
Bang!
Unfortunately, he was unable to voice out his command as a hole ripped through his heart. "Wh-what the..." He mumbled before his lifeless body, collapsed on the ground, drenching it in a scarlet color as the men behind him, turned pale.
"T-t-the Commander is dead!"
"Shit, what the hell is going on? Who is attacking us?!"
With the death of their commander, the men became like headless flies as they madly ran towards the opposite direction. Because of their panicked states, Dan easily predicted their movements as his newly bought, Karabiner98k continuously reaped their lives like harvesting wheat.
The smarter ones took cover inside houses while the other entered the narrow alleyways around them, preventing Dan from taking their lives. Removing his eye from the scope, Dan stared at the barrier as a sound of a shell, cracking reverberated in the area.
Caitlyn's expression shone in a relieved light as the cracks that dotted the barrier started spreading like a plague. Eventually, under their constant fierce attacks, the barrier collapsed as a ferocious battle cry, echoed from her mouth,
"All Squad, Attack!"
She raised her weapon towards the skies and everyone mustered their strength as they madly dashed towards the tower. Previously, because of the barrier's existence, they looked hopeless and discouraged. But witnessing the destruction of the enemy's bastion. Their morale exploded towards the skies to the extent that they even forgot about their injuries.
Back at the house where Dan was located, a small smile lifted on his lips. Standing up, Dan knew that with this. His debt towards Caitlyn was over. Walking outside the house, he leaped on roofs after roofs as he dashed towards Charlotte's location.
Note: Can't defeat, Dan!
