"It doesn't matter if we die, but you have to send the information back, or Somerland will suffer more losses. Hurry, this is an order! Stop messing. It will be too late if you don't leave now" Ivan roared loudly.
As soon as Ivan finished speaking, a mocking voice filled everyone's ears. "'It looks like it's too late even if you guys want to leave now. What are you guys gonna do now?"
"Who is that?"
"Who is talking?"
Ivan and his four healthy teammates immediately stood up from their hiding places. Then, they saw three masked men standing on a tree branch several meters above them.
'That's them! The masked man who just attacked us.'
"You? Why are you wearing a mask? Don't you want others to know who you are? Or do you want to blame someone else?" Ivan asked.
"Are you trying to get us to talk? You don't deserve to know our identity" said the masked man on the right.
"'Why? Are you afraid that Somerland will take revenge on you and therefore you are too afraid to tell me?"
"Ha ha ha ha, funny. Since we dared to attack you, do you think we fear revenge from Somerland? Somerland is now just an old dragon. Once Mason dies, the Somerland dragon will be divided and eaten by many groups."
"****! You bastards who dare not show your faces have no right to judge Somerland! Just wait! Somerland will soon send a master to arrest you all." - Ivan.
He knew that he might not be able to escape, so he only wished to kill another enemy before he died. However, the three of them were too strong and Ivan thought that there was no hope anymore.
"I like to kill my enemies when they give up. I forgot to tell you that the master of Somerland is handling the Falconia attack, so do you think they will have time to worry about you? Just die in despair obediently. About our identity. We are great people..."
"'Shut up!" The masked man in the middle immediately stopped him.
"Yes, Master!" the bragging man replied respectfully.
"Recover as soon as possible. Once we're done here, we'll have to meet the others. Just annihilate everyone sent by Somerland this time."
"Good, Master!"
When the masked man on the right wanted to move after speaking, his gaze became blurred and there was a chill on his neck. Then, all the power in his body disappeared in an instant.
He covered his neck with his hands and tried to speak, but no words came out. After that, he fell from a five or six meter high tree branch. While the masked man on the left experienced the same thing as him.
Both fell to the ground almost simultaneously. After struggling for two to three seconds, they stopped breathing. Now blood began to flow from their necks, staining the weeds around them.
Their necks were split in two thirds and wide open. It happened in a very short time. When Ivan and the others heard that the other party was about to take action, they saw the two masked men fall to the ground after they were ready. Then, the masked man stopped moving after a few seconds of struggling.
They all immediately looked to the branch. They saw a familiar figure strangling the remaining masked man and lifting him up. Meanwhile, the masked man looked at the person in front of him with fear in his eyes.
He was a Peak Dragon Ranker, but right now he could not fight back before he was subdued by the other party. He did not even notice when the other party approached them. The other party had eliminated the two masters who were in the Partial Dragon Ranker in an instant, and now he had subdued the masked man.
This guy is so fast that it's hard to believe. Now, if the other party tightened his grip slightly, the masked man would also leave this beautiful world like his two recently fallen comrades.
'NO! I don't want to die yet! I am a highly respected Mid-Dragon Ranker.'
He wants to continue to enjoy life and beautiful women. However, at this moment, he was unable to make a sound and he had no chance to beg for mercy.
The one who came was none other than David. At this point, he gripped the masked man's neck with one hand, paralyzing him. Ivan felt that the person who saved them looked familiar, but for a moment, he did not remember who it was.
"Captain Tomlinson, isn't he a freelancer from a rich family we hired last time?" ask one of the team members.
"Which one?" ask Ivan.
They had hired many freelancers who came from wealthy families, so how could he remember which one?
"The one who beat us all!”
Ivan immediately remembered after this sentence. His entire team fell to the ground as they took this recruit last time, so how could he forget?
"It turns out it was him! This guy is so strong! Looks like the last time he fought us, he didn't use his full strength at all.”
David stood on the branch and slowly strangled the masked man.
"Who are you? How many came this time and what was their strength? What was your purpose in coming here?” ask David.
He flew away after entering the old forest while his mind strength was also at an extreme level, so it didn't take long for him to see someone he knew. One of the Wolf Teams is hiding here. Two of them were also seriously injured. Also, there were three fewer members than the last time they invited him. They must have sacrificed their lives.
Although David had some misunderstandings with them last time, his heart was burning with anger at this moment. They were the elite of Somerland and they sacrificed their lives to protect their homeland. They are all Somerlandian officers, and they are more worthy of respect than everyone else in the country.
The enemy is three masked men. One of them was a Mid-Dragon Ranker, while the other two were a Partial Dragon Ranker. They were extremely powerful, and they were not people that the Wolf Army could compete with at all. Clearly, this party had come up with preparations this time around.
However, the masked man was being strangled and he could not speak even if he wanted to. Right now he was only able to let out a choking sound. David was able to figure out what the other party wanted, so he loosened his grip slightly.
Now, the masked man was already able to breathe, and he frantically took a few sips of fresh air. If David doesn't let go of his grip, he'll die of suffocation.
“K-If you let me go, I-I'll give you all the information!” replied the masked man with a hoarse voice.
“You do not have the qualifications to negotiate when you are in my hands.” David said with a blank face.
"Because I would die if I told you, and I would die if I didn't tell you then don't think of getting any info from me. Listen to me, the power we sent this time is completely beyond your imagination. If you don't get the information and start planning now, the whole of Somerland will end because everyone who enters will die.
How about we make a deal? I'll tell you everything if you let me go."
After the masked man finished speaking, he waited for David's reply. He was confident the other party would agree to his deal. As for information, how did David know if he was lying or not?
By the time he found out whether it was genuine or not, it was all too late.
But what he heard was not David agreeing to his deal, but rather the feeling of being suffocated again. Moreover, David used more power this time around.
"'Because you don't want to tell me, then you will be an offering to the tomb of the soldier who died for Somerland."
After David said that, he tightened his grip.
Cracks!
He kept clutching the masked man's neck. The masked man also looked at David with fear in his eyes. He did not understand why this Somerland man would rather kill him than get information. This is unexpected. Otherwise, he would not have spoken boldly to David.
But time cannot be replayed. As her neck was broken, she prepared to follow two other masked men on their way to become funeral offerings for the deceased Somerland warrior.
David casually threw away his body, jumped down from the branch, and landed gently on the ground.
"Captain Tomlinson, long time no see." said David.
"David, it's you! I'm sorry for the last time" Ivan said respectfully.
David's power was beyond his imagination. What was even more ridiculous was that he thought David was the son of a noble family who only wanted to boast.
"Please don't put it to heart, Captain Tomlinson. I should have apologized for what happened. I shouldn't have been so hard on you guys back then" David said.
They were all people who risked their lives for Somerland, and he must have been too hard on them the last time all last time. Now he looks a little embarrassed.
"David, how many people did you bring this time?"
Ivan stopped talking about what happened last time. The situation at hand is more urgent.
"Only me." answered David.
"What's? You're the only one? W-What should we do? beyond a doubt. The enemy is very strong, so you have to go and report to the superiors" Ivan said anxiously.
He initially thought that since someone was out to report the situation, the superiors from Somerland would arrange for the team to support them after receiving the information.
Unexpectedly, only David was sent this time. Even though David was great, at such a young age, no matter how strong he was, his strength still had its limits. Their enemy this time was not weak, and they were clearly eyeing Somerland. They had to report this to the superiors as soon as possible in order for them to send a stronger person. Otherwise, everyone who entered the forest times would be in danger.
"Captain Tomlinson, hurry up and take the wounded! I'll go find another.”
"David, don't be impulsive, the enemy is ready this time so we have to report first to the superiors."
"Atasan already knew the situation, so they asked me to come here to find out more. Don't worry, I won't act impulsively. Captain Tomlinson, you must go with the wounded first. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if you delay the treatment.”
Ivan thought about it and said, “Oke, be careful. I'll go and report this to my boss. They should send some people here immediately. You have to be careful."
"I understand. Leaving now. Straight from here, and about 5 to 6 kilometers, you'll see waypoints."
"'Well, be careful David. But I also want to check if the person left any identity.”
After Ivan said that, he and the other three members walked towards the three masked men, crouched down, and took off their masks. Nothing unique about their appearance. The one in the middle is older and he should be in his 50s or 60s. While others look like they are in their forties.
After that, Ivan searched them carefully. Unfortunately, they carry nothing and have no special tattoos. Indeed, they had come prepared. Ivan then walked in front of David and spoke after he had found nothing,
“No findings. I think these people are afraid of Somerland's revenge, so they didn't leave any clues."
“You can already tell from their masks. You have to go now, I'll look for another.”
With that, Ivan and three others left with two injured team members.
