2024-10-29 19:42:56The captain and his lieutenant Max made their back to the rest of the squad after finally coming to an agreement. Along the way, when the captain passed by Trapp's side, he quickly gave him a light kick and ordered.
"Wake up soldier... this is not the time to be sleeping."
"The signal could be coming anytime soon, so we have to stay sharp and make sure we are in tip-top condition to immediately react. Do you hear me?"
The captain spoke sternly to Trapp, completely unlike the way he had spoken when he was trying to prevent max from offending Trapp. Looking at the captain now; it was as if he did not know about Trapp's seemingly extraordinary background or even if he knew he did not care. It made no sense how he could act one way behind Trapp's back but immediately become another person right in his face.
Actually, this was not too difficult to understand. The captain was still the leader of this team and Trapp was under his command. It would not do well fo

"Frankie, Cole, Geralt... you three have worked hard. Now it's time to get busy again. You have to get all of us into the base quickly and silently now that they are distracted. This is going to be our only window to infiltrate without triggering any alarms. We can't miss this window, you hear me?"The captain's bearing changed completely as he spoke to the three members with the earth moving bloodline. Speaking with a lot of authority, the captain commanded them to get the whole squad into the enemy base.Those three earthmovers responded promptly, "Yes, captain!"The captain was not done because he turned to another squad member who was hidden in a corner among the others."Shadower, you also have to make sure to erase every trace of the squad. We do not know just how vigilant the enemy is or what measures they've set up on their base to deal with spies, so we cannot be careless. A sufficiently thick veil of shadows should suffice to make us undetectabl
Protogene Assimilation Greenhorn Base Camp
The Saint Veracles Starfield was a resource-rich zone in the Great Filament Upper Realm. In this star field, there were two powerful noble families that oversaw the running of the Starfield under the Ndlovu empire.These families were the Viceroy family and the Avalon family. These two families were very powerful and the competition between them, both in the open and in secret, was very fierce. Still, there always remained a modicum of civility with each other and would not go all out against the other.But recently, an all-out war had broken out between the two families over a recently discovered resource area that was abundant in many rare and valuable resources. The resources in this region were enough to push the development of both families by a considerable margin and make the strength of one family increase over the other.Both families were unwilling to give up on obtaining ownership of these resources. Normally, both families had clearly distinguished b

Trapp and his temporary squad were assigned with the mission to infiltrate the greenhorn base camp and destroy their defenses from the inside. They were to attempt to shut down the unmanned asteroid defense stations outside the planet.Right now, using a special method, Trapp's temporary squad was able to arrive undetected inside the planet and they burrowed deep into the earth to hide their traces and wait for the signal to launch their attacks.It should be noted that Trapp's squad was not the only one assigned to this task. For the purpose of ensuring the success of this mission, other squads similar to Trapp's temporary one were also assigned to accomplish this mission as them. But in order to ensure the secrecy of the operation, there were only three teams taking up the mission.Trapp's squad was one, and there were two other squads assaulting the main base of the camp from other directions. If anything were to happen, each squad was to cover for each other

Trapp's squad waited for the next volley of explosions to rain down from above and when it finally did, they immediately made their move again. Once again, shadower used his powers to completely wrap the squad in a dense layer of shadows that obscured and isolated their aura's. At the same time, max and his fellow support teammate injected their own powers into the space user, who promptly activated his power. In the next moment, Trapp's squad disappeared from their original location. They had vanished into thin air. There was only a slight spatial fluctuation in their original location that indicated space had been disturbed at that point. When the squad appeared once again, they were already inside the base, having bypassed countless checkpoints and layers of defense to directly appear inside. Once the squad was inside the base, the team immediately separated and checked the surrounding environment, making sure it was secure. After a quick look, the
Protogene Assimilation Trapp In Trouble 3
Originally, before Trapp joined the current squad, there were twenty members in the squad who had gone through life and death together. Unfortunately, during their last mission, one of their teammates died in the line of duty and a vacancy opened up in the squad. As is normal practice, all squads that were assigned on missions had to have a minimum of twenty members. In the case of a squad losing one or more of their members, they could either wait for the higher-ups to assign a new member to their squad or attempt to recruit someone for themselves from the batch of new recruits available. The way the military of most noble families operated is unlike the formal armies of the royal families of other civilizations in the universe. Most of the soldiers train in noble families operated in a half mercenary system where each squad had all autonomy in choosing the missions they went on. It was only when the noble family needed to fight in a war or territorial dispute that

"What the hell did you do?"Once the captain of Trapp's temporary squad and Max, his lieutenant, were out of ear's reach from the rest of the squad, the captain immediately demanded an answer from Max.Max was surprised.Although he guessed that the captain would suspect him for causing Trapp's sudden disappearance, or perhaps already did, he didn't expect that he would ask him outrightly like this.It was as if the captain was already sure that he had a hand in it. Although Max could not confirm if this was true, he still tried to feign ignorance in front of him.Putting on a confused look on his face, Max answered, "I-I don't understand what you mean. What did I do?""Come on, what are you asking me here?""Cut the crap, Max! Don't give me that bullshit. I know you had something to do with that kid's disappearance. I can see the sneaky look in your eyes when you look at the rest of the squad. You and a few of them must have come tog

"Who the hell came up with such a foolish idea?" "They must be both dumb and stupid at the same!" When the rest of the squad members heard the captain explain Max's plan to them, apart from those in on it, the rest of the squad were surprised. Nina even cursed out loud, clearly rebuking the plan for being ridiculous. At this moment, the alarms were still ringing, and the squad has wasted a bit of time dealing with this issue. The captain, realizing the situation, quickly dismissed the matter by saying. "Alright, leave it. Now is not the time to settle this matter. Since the damage has already been done, there is nothing we can do about it. Let's just deal with things as they come." "Get up." Picking max up from the ground, the captain tossed him to Nina as he said to him. "I'll deal with you later." "Nina, fix him up, will you? Don't let him drag us down more than he already has." "Alright boss," Nina answered a
Protogene Assimilation The Second Infiltrating Squad
The unknown group of people were dragged into the hall by the soldiers and brought in front of the man, who looked like the superior in charge of this section. Trapp watched attentively while paying attention to every little detail.Trapp counted the number of people in the captured group and he counted about twenty people, just like his previous squad. Among these people who were captured, all of them were injured and bruised, some more seriously than others. There were even three who were dragged in by the soldiers, and from the looks of their injuries, they were definitely in critical condition.If they were not treated in time, those three were very likely to die.Trapp watched on emotionlessly, without caring for the state of the group at all. Even though they were from the same side and fighting under the banner of the Avalon family, Trapp was not going to put himself in danger to attempt to rescue them.With the eyes of a predator, Trapp silently w

Powering Up And Life Orders
Right now, Constantine was in a very mysterious state. His body was covered in lightning, and a thick pillar of lightning surged from his body and shot into the sky, looking like it wanted to sunder the heavens apart. A lightning storm was being brewed with Constantine at the center and powerful electromagnetic forces clashed with the might of the sandstorm that was formed with the combined strength of multiple dooms.Right now, Constantine really resembled those anime characters that were undergoing a power-up, and in a sense, that was exactly what Constantine was doing.Constantine was currently in a state where he was digging deep within himself in an attempt to tap into the full potential of his powers to go beyond the limit of what he was currently capable of.In other words, Constantine was trying to call onto his future powers, which he did not currently possess, in order to go beyond the limit of his current strength.This is basically what a power-up is all about.

Advancing Toward The Final Goal 2
There was a short hallway from the door leading into the control room that Trapp and the others had to pass through. It didn't take long before the group was at the end of the hallway. As soon as he reached the end, Trapp stopped, and the others followed soon after. Nobody knew what was waiting for them on the other side of the hallway, so they tried to prepare themselves for the worst. Trapp exchanged looks with the assassin and he could see the serious expression on her face as her eyes went sharp with focus. Turning around, Trapp saw various signs of seriousness and focus on the faces of the others from the two squads as they prepared themselves for what would likely be an uphill battle. Wasting no time, Trapp nodded his head at the assassin, who blinked and nodded back at him. 'It is time!' This was what Trapp was trying to convey to the assassin, and she naturally understood him. Without saying anything else, both of them rapidly shot forward with a blast and crossed the thres

Advancing Toward The Final Goal
Trapp, along with the assassin, Phantom Trace, and the other two squads, were standing in front of the doorway leading to the control room. All of them were already well rested and had recovered a significant portion of their strength. Even the ones that were injured the most, the second squad, had managed to recover 50% of their combat power so they wouldn't be a hindrance in the next step of the plan.As everybody looked ahead, various thoughts went through each of their heads and no one took the initiative to step forward first. Finally, Trapp was the first to move. He took a few steps forward and then stopped before turning around to look at the rest.Looking each of them one by one in the eye, Trapp finally spoke up and said, "Alright then, we've already come to this point and you're all well rested. I understand that all of you have your own objective so I am not asking that we cooperate together. Just remember the plan we made and stick to them. As long as nobody tries any funn

An Hour Elapses As Everybody Recovers
There was a brief moment of silence between Trapp and the assassin, Phantom Trace. Eventually, the assassin gritted her teeth and said to Trapp."Alright, fine, I will bite!"The assassin stared at Trapp resentfully as she said, "You really give a compelling argument, I will admit. I, too, cannot stand the thought of being used. If it is as you said, the Avalon family is just playing me, then I have to know the truth. Even if what you said is not true, it won't affect me in any way if I investigate. In any case, I have to enter the control room in order to complete my mission so it won't conflict with anything if I investigate with you.""That's good," Trapp responded in delight. He was fairly certain that he would be able to convince the assassin to join his cause and, as he expected, she really decided to follow him. Trapp was very happy with this outcome.Suddenly, the assassin looked at Trapp seriously and said, "Don't be too happy yet. I am not done speaking.""Go on," Trapp urge

Decoys
The assassin, Phantom Trace, quickly shook herself mentally and removed the stray thoughts from her mind. Although she didn't know what had suddenly come over her that caused her to detect such an irrelevant detail, she was not willing to dwell on that matter anymore, so she focused on more important matters that were currently on hand.Looking at Trapp, the assassin directly said, "I admit that, based on what you said, things are a bit strange. In that case, what do you think is happening here?""Why did the Avalon family gather all of us here, and what could their true objective possibly be?"Since the assassin could not figure it out on her own, she felt it was better to directly ask Trapp and hear what his thoughts on the matter were.Trapp did not waste any time as he quickly answered, "Believe it or not, I think all of us here, that includes me, you, and those two squads are merely decoys and the scout is the one who was assigned with the mission to

Phantom Traces Suspicions
The assassin, Phantom Trace, was frowning very hard. Her brows were deeply furrowed, and her expression was slightly unnatural. Listening to Trapp's analysis, she could not help the feeling of shock and surprise that overwhelmed her.Trapp's analysis was spot on and accurate to a fault. Just like he said, the second mission had greater priority over the first. As long as she completed it and retrieved the item that she was told to, she would still get paid regardless of his, she completed the assassination mission or not.This was a clause that had been added to the contract that she signed when she came under the employ of the Avalon family.Although assassins like her and Trapp mostly worked in the shady and gray area of society, there was still a need to keep accounts clear in case of any problems during the course of a mission. For example, signing contracts had now become necessary in order to prevent either party from breaching the terms of the contract. I

Trapp's Suspicions
"What is that supposed to mean?" the assassin looked at Trapp suspiciously as she asked that question."What exactly are you insinuating?"The assassin could not understand what Trapp meant by his question. It was he was insinuating that he wasn't the cause of her recent failure up until now.Trapp's question made this whole mission seem like a conspiracy. To the assassin, Phantom Trace, Trapp was just mystifying things in order to shirk responsibility and avoid blame. She wasn't going to fall for his schemes."If you think for one second that I am going to let you off just because you want to sound profound when you are not, you've got another thing coming, mister!"Witnessing the assassin's reaction, Trapp rolled his eyes at her. Then he shook his head as he said to her."Alright calm down and stop being overly dramatic. Will you at least let me finish what I was going to say.?""Sheesh, women!

Rookie Crushing
"So you are the famous ending maker... the rookie who has been making a lot of waves recently in our circle?" the assassin, Phantom Trace, said to Trapp after learning his identity. Naturally, the identity that Trapp revealed to her was his assassin monicker and not his real identity.Phantom Trace looked Trapp over from head to toe before she continued speaking, "I hear you currently have a 1000% mission completion rate and that all your targets have been successfully assassinated since you began your debut. nice track record... it's almost as impressive as mine. Your codename is a little tacky, I would say, but apart from that, you're definitely promising."The assassin, Phantom Trace, evaluated Trapp as she observed him, stating his past record since he became an assassin. From her words, it seemed like she was praising Trapp, but if one listened carefully to what she said, one would know that there was a hidden meaning underlying her every word.Although the

Assassin's Code
None of the squad members doubted Trapp's ability to defeat and kill them. They were able to feel a suppressive pressure from him that made them weak and unwilling to face him. This kind of pressure was something that people naturally exerted over those who were weaker than them.It was a subconscious fear that was exerted over other people who were weaker than oneself, forcing them to be unwilling to face you in combat. If a person could exert this kind of fear and pressure over another person, then when fighting that person, it would feel like their hands and feet were shackled by an invisible force and they wouldn't be able to display their full power in combat.There were a lot of factors that could lead to another person being able to have suppressive pressure over their opponents and it wasn't a hard fact simply based on if you were stronger than the other person or not. Things like confidence, will, and courage could also cause people to suppress others.
