Chapter 316: a battle of dragons



Chapter 316: a battle of dragons

The night was a long and eventful one.

On various parts of Vatican City, the local military force and soldiers of the Dragon military division invaded without restraint, reaping the lives of the terrorists without mercy.

In some terrorist bases, they didnt even know anything till the soldiers arrived at their doorsteps. Even before they could equip themselves with their weapons, they were butchered ruthlessly. It was a complete massacre.

At first, Clark still doubted a bit, thinking that the information sent by Commander Tiver was bait but after raiding about a dozen terrorist bases, he believed every single bit of it.

The information was so detailed- including the number of terrorists in each base, the name of the leader, his rank, weapon of choice, and other sensitive information that could not be easily gotten.

This left him shocked. Even if the Commander was among the higher-ups of the terrorists of this region, it was abnormal and irresponsible for him to have so much information about so many terrorists bases.

It seemed that the Commander was going the extra mile just to show his sincerity, and to convince him to fulfill his promise.

Though all sources of normal communication in the city were cut off, this was not a guarantee that the terrorists were cut off entirely from the outside world. They may have a special communication method.

Because of this, every single free soldier in the city was mobilized except those that were guarding strategic locations like the government building, the headquarters of the Dragon military division base, the underground shelters, and a few other places.

Though the civilians were protected in shelters underground far away from the battle, none of them could sleep as the loud booming sounds of battle kept on reverberating down.

Hearing these sounds, all those that still felt dissatisfaction against the forceful means of the soldiers swallowed it in. Any time an earthquake-like boom vibrated down, they all shuddered in fear.

They still didnt know what was going on, but from the sounds and the stern expression of the soldiers guarding them, it was clearly a battle.

Clark was in a remote corner of the city, in a static position in his exotic car as he just sat waiting for some news. His cars lights were switched off and with its stealth module on also, it was hidden from all prying eyes in the night.

As soon as he got the information from the terrorist Commander, and after he passed the information on, he did not leave his mansion to join the battle immediately after jumping down.

His new weapons were cool and all that but they were not the only things that Professor Monkey Hands worked on for him, the actual main thing was his exotic car.

Compared to before, the exotic car now looked sleeker and sports-like in its base appearance.

All its abilities and configurations were improved after the upgrade, including its armor and weapon armaments. These were the most important part of the car and the most reasonable also.

Even for the old version of his exotic car, he still wasnt able to explore all its abilities and add-ons. This new version of it was just better and more beastly.

As he sat silently in his car waiting, with a beep sound a notification was suddenly sent to his communication device. The source was directly from Corporal Cinnabar of the Dragon military division.

[Sir, we already discovered all the nearby terrorist bases according to the new information that you sent.]

[Overall, theres a total of 24 terrorist bases in the city and they are all spread out in different directions. 16 of them are small-sized, 5 of them are medium-sized, while the last 3 are big terrorist bases.]

[We are already attacking the first 2 of the big terrorist bases, where Im the leader currently. Though progress is proving difficult, we are still holding on. For the biggest base, like you asked we left it for you.]

[The location is just 8 minutes from your location, sir.]

[The elite Black Dragon Battalion of the Dragon military division is already waiting for you there, sir. Everything is set, they are just waiting for you to get there and take charge of the attack.]

As soon as the voice message came to an end, Clark smiled.

Knowing that the terrorists had the guts to build and hide 24 terrorist bases in his city while he was here, he felt outraged but he didnt know how he should express it.

The Persian tigers organization has really been unbridled for far too long, now they needed pruning. He clenched and unclenched his fists.

Yes, he personally requested for the biggest terrorist base to be left to him. With the current trajectory of the attack, all the terrorists could be wiped out without any need from him but it would require herculean effort and sacrifice.

He didnt want this though- as he said, he wanted no casualties in this assault. It may sound unrealistic, but that was his main goal when he drafted the plan for this city-wide raid.

He didnt want to stay idle, he wanted himself to be tangibly involved in the battles. He wanted to fight directly with his soldiers, not watch from the sidelines while his soldiers fought.

After confirming the direction that he needed to go, he grinned before stepping hard on the accelerators punched into his exotic car.

With a slight chopping sound reverberating through the atmosphere, the car let out a barely audible mechanical growl before breaching and tearing the air apart to enable its speed to burst forth in its full glamour.

At the southside of Vatican City in one of the remote alleys, a barbed-wire fence was erected around a land property, and an official government signed warning was attached to the front of the fence.

[Warning: Stay Off! This is Government Property!]

[Signatory: Major Clark Pendragon.]

Sergeant Maria scoffed inwardly on seeing this outrageous warning again. This once again brought to her the painful reality that some corrupt officials were in the leading tiers of Vatican City.

Without some leading officials, there was no way that some terrorists would have erected this without being busted long ago.

She was grateful that Captain Clark already thought of this. Clark already suspected this when he made his plans. Though his 5 commissioners sounded loyal, they were actually his biggest suspects.

The other suspects were numerous, but these 5 were the only ones that he could focus on.

Because of this, he only revealed 1/3 of the plan to them, the Dragon military division was the only trustworthy allies of the city that he revealed everything.

And also included in the plan was a scenario where the terrorists mysteriously receive confidential information that could counter them, he also didnt reveal most of his reinforcements to the 5 commissioners.

Sergeant Maria tried to ignore the pain gushing at her eyes from seeing this blasphemous act, but she consoled herself with the fact that this terrorist base would be laid to rest in a few hours.

In the remote region that this land property was located, it was surrounded by the only forest in Vatican City. Yes, the forest was pitifully small, but it was sufficient for their use.

Currently inside this forest were 1000 soldiers all dressed in black military uniform with red stripes, not a single one less of a thousand, not a single one more. Just a thousand soldiers.

This was the most elite force of the Dragon military division, the Black Dragon Battalion. Currently, in the military division, no soldier had the right to take full control of them yet, no soldier was of that rank yet.

Sergeant Maria herself was not qualified, even their leader, Corporal Cinnabar was not qualified, but today someone qualified was finally about to lead them into battle.

As a battalion formed from the cream of the top soldiers of the military division, all the Black Dragon soldiers had pride. But today that was all going to be laid down, the legendary Stranded Dragon himself was going to lead them today.

Captain Clarks status in Vatican City was already transcendent, which would only become more transcendent after today. To them, it was an honor to fight alongside him.

As they laid face-first on the floor, silent and unmoving, waiting for the signal of the captain. They suddenly stirred; it was here!

At the distance, from the only road that led in this remote direction suddenly came a black car that was flying at mind-blowing speeds in this direction.

Before the car reached the position of the fence, it fired a bright red flare into the air that lit up the darkness of the night. Seeing the red light, all the Black Dragon soldiers eyes lit up with it.

Sergeant Maria grew exuberant. The captain is here; his first shot is our call! When he shoots, we move!

They didnt actually need her reminder, they already practiced this scenario countless times in the past few weeks, they drilled like there was no tomorrow just for today. There was no way in hell that they were ready to mess up now.

Suddenly, a blue glow lit up in the distance, exposing the exotic car and its enormous cannon muzzle that was currently facing the fenced wall.

The glow accumulated to an extent that it became red, then it was released.

BOOM!!

The sound was like that of a nuclear explosion combined with the sounds of a million clapping peals of thunder as a dark red energy beam flew at the fence at a shocking speed.

Blue light suddenly shone around the barbed fence as an enormous energy shield rose from the ground, then the beam hit it.

Crack!

Taking the deafening sound of the impact away, the more dragged-out cracking sounds of the energy shield stole the show.

Surprisingly, that overwhelmingly powerful beam was not able to take out the shield in one go. This did not mean it was safe though, the residual force ate at it relentlessly till a crack at the middle finally gave in.

Whatever generator that was pumping energy to the shield clearly malfunctioned after such a blow as the shield fell apart the next moment.

The soldiers were already with earmuffs before the first shot was released, so they were not affected by the deafening sounds of impact.

With a loud screeching sound and a booming sound accompanying it, Clarks exotic car finally arrived on the battlefield, its tires scraping the floor as it made extreme rotating turns while still moving forward in the direction of the fence.

Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu!

The day seemed to have descended in the night.

The cars gun armament muzzles kept on sparking out light as bullet after bullet flew out while it rotated. While this happened, Clark with his multi-purpose boots holding him to the roof of the car wrath his mischief.

The car rotated without pause, granting him all the right angles he needed as his 2 hands just pulled the trigger without stress. His dual 2-form guns in their machine gun configuration spat out bullets like a hail of rainwater.

NOW!

The already impatient Black Dragon guards finally erupted from their positions in the forest, their Captain already carved the way, all they needed to do was penetrate deeper.

Loud gunshots filled the night immediately, the sound of exotic weapons being drawn from sheaths reverberated as the terrorist base finally reacted alarmingly to this sudden attack.

Tonight, they were not fighting with humans, but Dragons!
