I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1056 - An Impending Disaster

~Broooahhhh~~~

F***!

They had to move now!!!

Snowy bears!

With their eyesight, they should be able to spot them on the b.a.r.e trees once they get close enough... Since they could see as clear as day.

So their best bet was to hurry back down and hide in their man-built ground hole and wait for the beasts to pass by.

There was a wide hole a little bit further up ahead that was covered up with a metal cover.

That was where great typically hid in situations like these.

All 3 men felt a prickling sensation of a spider crawling on their backs when they heard the sounds getting louder and louder.

Their hairs all stood at attention as they hurriedly jumped down to take cover.

"Dammit! Why the hell are we so unlucky?"

"Hurry! Hurry! We have to leave fast!!"

~Pam!

They landed on the snow and nearly tripled just after landing.

They were rushing so hard while glancing over their shoulders that they didn't even properly look at the ground or their surroundings.

Then suddenly, amidst the snowy near sounds, a sharp whistling sound echoed out from the sides.

And before they knew it, they found themselves falling to the ground in horror and disbelief.

~Thup! Thup! Thup!~~

They had been shot right in the head with arrows.

They stretched their hands forth as if trying to grab onto hope while falling.

Dammit! How was this happening?

They didn't want to die yet!

What about their riches and promises of the future?

They were Morgs, for heaven's sake!

So why should they die in this desolate place?

They hadn't even enjoyed their lives yet to the fullest.

How could they not be unwilling?

Their bodies started vibrated nonstop and immediately turned cold

Fear, hatred and all sorts of emotions gripped their hearts when they sensed that their entire body was shutting down for good.

No... What was going to happen to them now?

They didn't even have time to scream or make any cries for help before they unwillingly lost consciousness.

Only in these last moments, that they knew they had been set up.

But by whom?

This was a question meant for those alive to answer.

Right now, they were dead and gone!

~Plop!!

Their lifeless bodies right to the ground face down in a large 'bang.'

They fell with their eyes and mouth wide open.

No doubt about it. If their bodies were left the way it was, all sorts of bugs would bore into their dead flesh, gnashing, swimming and darling holes through their pale, lifeless bodies.

~Whoosh!

Yara's team popped out and quickly dragged the bodies out of sight before covering them up with snow.

They had lured these men down because if they made any moves, trying to attack them when they were still high up in the trees, these men might scream or make overly loud noises.

Now that the bodies were taken care of, they cleared the scene and quickly found a secluded location for themselves.

That's right.

Now, they could change out of their wetsuits and get properly equipped without worry.

Of course, another team will be there to take their swimsuits back to the underwater vessels A.S.A.P.

Lucy took her team away, while Ruby took her own team away too.

"Alright. Follow my lead."

"Hm."

With that, they were off.

But of course, they weren't the only ones on the move.

.

On the other side of the docks, a scout who had his eyes closed suddenly woke up and opened his mouth in alarm.

~Pfff!!!

Blood sprayed through his neck like a fountain after a cold light flashed past it.

The man's eyes rolled upwards in despair as he wanted to hell or call out for help.

Too bad his body was shutting down faster than his thoughts.

~pap!

His lifeless body leaned back against the person who slashed his throat.

And like that, he was hurriedly cut gently placed in the snow on his back.

After burying the man, Landon turned his head to Lucius, who had also taken down another scout.

So far, so good.

Everyone had done their part.

They looked at each other and nodded in understanding before disappearing again into the dark like ninjas.

~Woosh!

Landon ran straight ahead with his hands at the back and leaped onto a tree, and jumped from branch to branch stealthily.

This way, they wouldn't leave too many footprints in the snow.

And with their heat vision goggles, they would be able to see anyone or beast ahead of them.

Lucius and the rest also got in the trees and jumped swiftly like dark flashing shadows.

In this era of assassins, this sort of training was a must in their military lives.

So the barracks had fully covered these.

Just like that, they continued killing and clearing their way through until they reached the border region between the forest and the town.

But when they arrived, they saw something that left them shaken.

They took out their small binoculars and trembled in utter disbelief and rage.

Major General Josh?

.

Everyone, including Lucius, felt their hearts sink when watching the scene before them.

Josh! Josh! Josh!!!!

What was he doing here?

Cold sweat trickled down Lucius' face when he saw Josh's bloodied appearance.

If they didn't come, wouldn't this mean that Josh would've been shipped away without their knowledge?

Seeing how shocked Landon was, Lucius knew that this was all a coincidence.

Luckily, the stupid brat had remembered before he left for Zalipnia.

Or, by the time they would've realized the situation, it might've already been too late.

Josh could've been on any pirate ship out in the open.

So they would've had to start searching through hundreds and thousands of pirate sh.i.p.s stationed all over Pyno.

F***!

Grace would've killed someone alive!

Don't look at her charming appearance and think she's weak.

That girl was as strong as Lucy.

(*Well, she did look like Erza Scarlet in Fairy Tail. So... Yeah.)

She had sometimes shown her strength even when educating students in class or working on the government building.

Even when she trained alongside Josh, many who saw her fight dared not cross her.

With the current situation, many who knew her felt like they had stopped a natural disaster from happening.

.

Lucius opened his arm shield like Buzz Lightyear in Disney's Toy Story and transmitted the message for all.

"This is Delta 2X reporting in.

Major General Josh is being held captive.

I repeat. Major General Josh is being held captive!"
