All Time Marksman

Chapter 181 - Perseverance Is Key

"I agree with Sir Jin I think it is the best that we take on the east so that we can also attack them from behind and I don't think they can communicate fast as the Communication building in the western sector have already destroyed last time."

Wen Bao stated as he looked at Jin. Jin acknowledge the response of Wen Bao and Hu Gui also nodded agreeing to what Wen Bao have said.

After that, Wen Bao and Hu Gui walked out of the room and goes down to check on their men. Jin let them do that so that the men will have a soft boost of morale from their squad leaders that are commanding them into battle.

Jin looked at the map he feeling of no worries in mind. He was just stressed about how the enemy forces could locate and disrupt the communication. He looked at Qi Meili, who was fixing the hologram.

"What do you think?" He asked Qi Meili as she was about to leave the room. "We have enemies that are might be Class D to C hooded figures, and they seem to be strong to what I can analyze from the data of the said attacks and disruption of communication."

"I see. Well then, thanks for the reply," He replied, and she nodded while walking out of the room. After that, Jin was all alone inside the room, trying to relax his mind.

Before he was about to relax his mind, a sudden flash back appeared as if it sucked him into a void. And a light appeared like it was a tunnel, and then he heard his mother's voice, the softness and gentle voice of her mother.

Slowly as he was walking towards the light, he saw a silhouette his mother silhouette is what he saw but soon enough another silhouette appeared it looks like a troll silhouette and from that moment Jin tried to run but he can't as if there was a wall trying to force him forward a watch how his mother died in front of him. And he suddenly woke up. His eyes were frantically open.

His adrenaline was already rushing in his body like he was trying to run from something. And then he get a peace of mind. "It has been rampant these few days. I don't think its good to have this kind of flash back coming back and back and hindering me. Dammit, why am I weak!" He slammed the table.

He looked at the window as he slammed the table, "Maybe I should buy some food of mine, some noodles in the global market will be good enough and hot water."

Jin thought of himself. After that he bought 2 cups of noodles at the global market and a sudden knock on the door. He was about to open the cup noodles when he heard the knock, so he said "Open" and the door opened. And there he sees it was Fang Shirong.

Jin was curious about why was Fang Shirong knocking on his door. So he asked with a normal gaze while still trying to check on his cup noodles. "How can I help you man" He said with a calm tone of voice while eating the noodles that were already cooked.

"Well, Sir I am just here because I am should have told you beforehand. I saw a person earlier, and that person could exhibit a potential to be one of the candidate squad."

And Jin replied with "So you are asking me if we should take in the person you see that there could be a potential?"

"Yes, sir I am going to train him and then we can train him by letting him join us." Fang Shirong states as he looked at Jin eating. Jin looked at Fang Shirong he looks at him in the eyes and said, "Are you sure that person is trustworthy and will not betray our location. You know we are in a crisis that our enemy is trying to find us and I am sure they will do anything and they won't let us be."

After that word, Fang Shirong doubts about the person he saw earlier. "Sir, I will rethink about what I said and I am sorry for disturbing your eating.

There is still food on the first floor if you need more sir." Jin replied with a nod. After he finished the two cups of noodles, Jin stood up and look at the window he tried to peek, and the only thing he sees is black smoke that was rising through the air.

And some lights and some gunshots being fired from afar. "I really thought that there will no gun fire because of the forces are only surrounding our forces and then letting ourselves starve and resort to killing ourselves."

After that laid down on the table and tried to take rest. Even though the table was quite hard and was not comfortable to lie on because of his suit, he could take a sleep. The day ended, the sun slowly rising from the horizon. The birds were flying, and it was quiet for the day. A knock was the only thing that made Jin awake.

So he replied "Open" and Qi Meili opened the door and said "Sir, I have something to say regarding the reinforcements." And he replied with "Okay, go on, what do you think about the reinforcements?"

Qi Meili replied, "Sir, it is good to have reinforcements but for now sir, the enemy is everywhere if we are going to fight we need new suits for the guys down there. Also, sir, I have contacted the Base Underground and they are sending more forces to be deployed here. And to add to that sir, the Mayor has called the candidates out and he is sending them here."

He suddenly stood up from where he was lying and looked at Qi Meili was standing by the door. "Who ordered those rascals to be deployed?" She replied with her hands shaking and getting numb as she was already nervous when talking to Jin.

"Sir, the mayor have ordered and because the candidates also want to meet how bloodshed and have a feeling about a mission, they begged and Duan Tingguang felt it was good to send more squad members here. Even though he does not know that the training for a squad. It needs to be 2 full years before graduating and attaining the recognition."

"That is worrisome indeed. I want you to contact the candidate squad. So that they know where to land." He ordered and Qi Meili replied with "Copy that Sir. I will arrange their location of jumping from the Eagle Bird. Also, sir, because we have attained connection back with the Base Underground, we can now call for air support and with this we can fend off the enemies using air."

"That is great to hear fix with the lines same with the other two Squad downstairs." He added after that Jin looked at the window. After that, he stood up and stretched his arms wide.

He opens the door and goes down the stairs and as he was going down the stairs; he saw some Black Armored Knights sleeping and trying to get some good rest because they know they will move out soon. Jin saw how busy the communication officers were.

"Alright, the operation will be today. I want all of you to check your ammo and weapons. Qi Meili and the other communication officers will stay here. So Han Zian and Fang Shirong, you will come with me we are going to save the entrapped squad 3 of the Black Armored knights." Both of them nodded as a reply to Jin. After 20 minutes, all of them were prepared and ready for Jin go signal to move out of the compound.

"Alright, let's move!" with that command, all of them followed Jin outside of the compound, their weapons raised and they were all ready for a battle. They were moving towards the east of the Western sector.

Like the last time they did, they go alley way by alley house by house breaking walls until they reached the location where the north of the entrapped black armored knights were facing. Which is the east of Jin's perspective.

As they were moving, they saw that the armed loyalist soldiers have already blocked the street and slowly they were making it into a garrison type holdout. Jin raised his hand to signal for a halt as he clenched his fist.

But the difference is that Jin did not use the helmet of the two squad leaders, but he looked at his scope. As he was scoping the area, he saw that there were machine guns positioned at the top of the building. And the two buildings that facing them.

"I can kill the two machine gunners, but I don't think that I can kill the other 5 on the ground. If we use loud guns, it will alarm the other positions and it won't be good." He thought to himself, so he looked back and he saw that Fang Shirong was waiting for an order.

So Jin called Fang Shirong and said, "Fang Shirong, I want you to take down that 5 armed loyalist guards on the gate and then I will be the one taking out the other two snipers at the rooftop." As a response to Jin plan fang Shirong replied with "That will be a good idea that will be a warmup for me."

Jin aimed his FRR-Raven at the left machine gunner, which was surveying the ground for enemy movements that he can see.. At this moment, the group was still hiding in the alley while Jin was taking cover in a gigantic crater that was created because of an explosion.
