Chapter 122 - A Mission Define The Identity
After that, an alarm sounded in the whole dome and the medical staff proceed to take the unconscious bodies to the infirmary. An officer walked and approached Jin that was seating and overlooking the unconscious bodies of the member of the squad. The Officer saluted Jin and Jin looked at the officer.
"Yes, How can I help you sir" Jin exclaimed as he looked at the officer that was saluting at him. The officer was wearing a black uniform mostly a formal uniform from the Black Armored Knights. "The mayor is summoning you at the city hall for a certain mission," the officer said those words with a calm and gentle tone.
Jin replied with "I will be heading there with my whole squad. Thank you" and Jin saluted back at the officer. And the officer turned around and walks away, "Well I guess we are going to go into a mission impossible again" Fang Shirong stated as he tried to joke around. And as Fang Shirong said that that Han Zian chuckled.
Jin stood up from where he was seating and then said "Let's go" and all of them followed Jin walking out of the dome, Jin waved at the control panel as it was a sign of thank you for him. After that, they were escorted by a few white armored knights,
"Well, I guess this was the first time once again that I am going above the earth" Jin exclaimed and Han Zian replied with "Sir, are we going to get burned I have really been putting nourishment on my body so that I can look much whiter than before."
And Fang Shirong replied to what Han Zian said "Well, your face did not change a bit well I guess the nourishment you have been putting on your body doesn't work" and Qi Meili laughed a bit.
Han Zian felt irritated when Fang Shirong said that. When Han Zian was about to say something the door opened and like always the first they saw was the stairs going up the barracks.
And as they walking up, they were all silent and once they saw the roof of the barracks, they saw a few candidates that were about to enter the real base underground. And after that, they walk out of the barracks, and once again they felt the sand wind and the desert heat.
"Sir, please here" one of the officers pointed to a car. All of them hop in the car. "Hey, it's been 3 months since I have seated on a dusty car" Fang Shirong stated, and Han Zian replied with "Your face is always dusty you just never felt it, sometimes you really need to rub your face and the excess dry skin will appear" and Qi Meili giggled and laughed. And Fang SHirong replied, "Oh yeah well yours is- your- dammit!"
"I guess you two have been having fun while your people are not that working hard, you really need to teach them. They are not going to be deployed in that kind of situation" Jin looked at the mirror that reflects both Han Zian and Fang Shirong. Both of them were quiet after Jin said those words. As if they were speechless.
And the driver smiled as he heard what Jin has commented on the two at the back of the car. After passing through multiple checkpoints. Jin and the squad arrived at the city hall and there they saw that there are trucks and other armored cars that are just waiting for deployment.
"I guess it is true we are going into a mission that is why we are called here" Fang Shirong stated as he was walking behind jin and after what Fang Shirong said Han Zian replied, "Well, At least they have covered almost 3 months of our food and housing and we just need to fix some of their training problems." After that sentence, they all stopped at the huge door which was the entrance door for the city hall.
And the door opens and like always it was a Black-armored knight that opened the door. The black-armored knight saluted Jin and the squad. After that Jin saluted back the same as the others. "Sir, Please follow me," the Black-armored knight said as he looked at them and as a reply, Jin nodded and the Black-armored knight turned around.
The entrance hall of the city hall was still marvelous but there are no longer women playing around. The only ones that remained were the front desk and the pictures of Mayor Duan Tingguang.
After that, they soon walked up to the second floor as the city hall has been upgraded due to Maskara increasing to a 2nd stage city. Which is now offering a lot of new things. And soon to be accredited by the Safe Zone Alpha to be one of the new cities that is recognized by the Southern Government.
Jin looked up as he saw the huge door that was in front of them. "It became fabulous than ever, did the Mayor have many acquaintances making this kind of door, is really one of a kind," Jin said as he looked at the Black-armored knight.
"Sorry, Sir but I cannot confirm nor deny your question" and Jin replied with "Oh, well that will fair enough" and the door opened, and as the door opened the shiny shimmering throne chair that was at the end of the hall was the one dazzling the eyes of any guest at the office of the mayor of the Maskara city.
Jin and the others walked near the throne and as they stood there they saw Duan Tingguan with a woman on his lap. "How can we help you, Mayor?" Jin looked at Duan Tingguan, "Well as you can see there is a convoy outside of the city hall and that convoy will be a trade convoy I want your team to secure it.
And proceed to the city of Jelkala for me after that the business delegate will take care of the negotiation until then protect the business delegate and then you will also secure the money and return back to the city."
Jin replied "Alright, that will be a medium level task around 32000 gold for the main price of protecting a specified person and another 20 000 gold each for completing the mission without any casualties. Do we also have a backup such as White armored Knights?"
Duan Tingguang replied "Yes, there will be 10 White armored Knights that will be assisting the main convoy but it will not protect the Business officer because that will be on you and your team job"
After that Jin was given the briefing box. "Your men will be moving around night because it is better to be camouflage into the night. Rather than at the morning where everything can be seen." Duan Tingguang said while his hands were roaming the girl's body. "And it will be done," Jin replied after that he turned around and the other followed Jin going out of the city hall.
"Well, that was a quick discussion." Fang Shirong replied. "I want all of you to equip the uniforms that I have given you don't wear the uniforms that those people have made I don't trust their product" Jin whispered his voice as he was walking and talking while behind them was the Black-armored knight. After that jin and the rest of the squad returned back to the base to equip their gears and listen to the main intelligence briefing.
[Inside the underground base]
"Well, like always this suit better suits me." Fang Shirong said as his black uniform was suited him well. "Well that is because I gave it to you that is why it is cool" Jin replied while smirking and looking at Fang Shirong as if he was making fun of him.
Jin approached the briefing box and put his finger on the scanner. And after putting his finger on the scanner an artificial intelligence voice sounded.
[Welcome, Officer]
[Access: Granted]
[Officer Card: Jin]
[Mission will be Briefied]
And after the last message, a hologram appeared with the hologram appeared also appeared videos and intelligence and the whole map with a 3D visual being played out in front of them. "I see, so there are 3 routes towards Jelkala.
The 2 routes that were prepared for us is the safest while the third one was the deadliest route to be taken by a business officer. But from what I am currently seeing this route is much safer rather than the recommended 2 routes to us." Jin discussed as he crosses his arms and looked at the pictures and some Aerial videos of the 3 routes.
"Well, then the answer will be the third route sir?" Fang Shirong answered as walked towards the briefing box and look at the map that was played out in front of them.
"Well, that is what I am trying to understand on why they are recommending the 2 deadliest routes rather than the one that was supposed to be the route to be taken as one of the secure roads."
"Well, maybe they want us to use our capabilities once more, I think the business office does not trust our capabilities that is why. They are thinking that if we show our skills to the enemies especially the Lion Guild that controlled this region and also their subgroup also known as the Black Lion Pride Guild that is also doing operations on this specific region.." Han Zian stated as he walked and approached the others that were looking at the photos of the surveillance.
