“Jack!” Ray called, trying to snap Jack back to his senses. “Don’t do something the commander didn’t instruct us to do!”But Jack pretended not to hear anything.He still paved the way toward the minefield, carrying something on his shoulder.“I’ll borrow your bazooka for a while, Nick,” Jack said, positioning himself with the bazooka on his side. “You can buy another one after this, can’t you?”“Jack Ferguson! You shit!” Nick cursed on the other line, seeing how serious Jack was about what he was going to do.He added, “Don’t you love your life anymore? What about your younger brother? Are you going to leave him just like this?”“The mission comes first before anything else. That’s what Oliver always tells us,” Jack replied, then paused. “Right, commander?”Oliver was just silent until now.He was analyzing every pros and cons on the battlefield.“Shot them with the bazooka,” Oliver commanded in a serious tone. “It will distract them, and the time would be enough for us to escape.”“I

Zayne faltered, his hands trembling against the baton he was holding.‘I knew his presence was overwhelmingly strong, but this is the first time I’ve seen his eyes like this,’ Zayne thought, looking at Oliver’s face.The anger was evident in Oliver’s eyes, sending shivers down Zayne’s spine.Zayne tried masking his fear with anger. But it was too late. Oliver could sense the cold bite of fear in him.“What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue now?” Oliver asked, raising an eyebrow. “Where’s the arrogance you had earlier? And why are your hands shaking?”“T-This…” Zayne looked at his hand, and he seemed pathetically scared. “Shit. Damn you, Oliver!”Zayne swung his baton, but before it landed on Oliver’s face, the latter caught it with his right hand.“W-What the?” Zayne asked in confusion, looking at Oliver’s hands—which were now untied. “How?”His gaze stopped at the blade Oliver was holding; a blade.“You didn’t really think I’d let you beat me up without having a backup plan, didn't

“Melissa,” Oliver spoke, answering the call.“Did I get your signal right, Commander?” Melissa asked, the hesitation evident in her tone. “I saw your hand gesture.”Oliver made that hand gesture while fighting with Zayne’s men.He remembered doing that whenever he needed to have silent commands and hoped that Melissa would understand it.Gladly, she did.“Yes,” Oliver answered. “Anyway, I need a chopper.”Melissa smiled. “On it, Commander.”Only a few seconds later, a helicopter landed a short distance before him.A man went down and kneeled in front of Oliver. “I’m glad that you’re back, Commander Zero.”Oliver only nodded in response, acknowledging his presence.“Hendrick,” Oliver called, then gave Trisha to him. “Bring her to the hospital, and inform Carolina Henverton that she’s safe.”He added, “You can make it seem like you’re her rescuers, right?”“We can,” Hendrick reassured. “But Commander, aren’t you going with us? You’re injured, and you need immediate treatment—”“I can ha

Back at the abandoned warehouse, Zayne was escaping alone as Oliver already beat all his people up.This was the first time he saw Oliver bursting into a rage.It sent shivers onto his spine, knowing Oliver could kill him that moment if he wanted to.“Shit,” Zayne groaned, feeling the pain traveling onto his body.Broken ribs, aching muscles, and some bruises and wounds.None of them were comparable for the intense aura Oliver showed with his eyes.And Zayne felt that everything happened because of him.‘I need to report this, and take those injured men to the hospital,’ Zayne thought.Taking his phone, Zayne was about to dial someone’s number.He looked at the sky, and he stopped on his tracks upon noticing something.“What the fuck?” Zayne asked, seeing a bomber flying at the top of the warehouse. “Shit. Fucking shit!”Zayne ran toward the exit, but he hadn't even run that far when the bomb dropped.BOOM!“Ugh!” Zayne groaned as the bomb’s impact dragged him away.His back hit the w

Upon seeing what Zayne was trying to show her, Carolina’s body froze.“H-How…” she muttered, her tone laced with confusion. “Why do you have a picture of that necklace?”“The one who kidnapped Trisha sent that to me,” Zayne lied, heaving a frustrated sigh.He added, “At first, I didn’t know what it was, but I suddenly remembered the issue circulated here about the necklace.”The conversation was silent, as Carolina couldn’t find the right words. Even the reporters were shocked, as they had heard about the stealing incident a few weeks ago.Carolina only looked Zayne in the eye, the disbelief evident in her expression.‘I immediately ran onto Oliver as soon as I learned about Trisha being taken by someone…’ Carolina thought, her fists balling.‘And now, this guy is telling me that Oliver is her kidnapper?’If Zayne was telling the truth, that was a strong punch to her pride.She just put Trisha more in danger.“I see. You don’t believe me just yet,” Zayne said, snapping Carolina back

Oliver was too stunned to speak.He didn’t even realize that Zayne would use Trisha suffering, which he created, to escape from the situation.“It’s not me, but him,” Oliver said firmly, pointing at Zayne.“Me?” Zayne asked, smirking and raising an eyebrow. “Where’s your evidence, then?”Oliver didn’t answer. So far, he didn’t have any evidence.He asked Melissa to drop a bomb on that abandoned building, after all.“See? You’re being silent now.” Zayne smirked, looking Oliver in the eye. “Why are you even saying things you don’t mean, huh?”Instead of answering immediately, Oliver stared at Zayne for a few seconds.“And why are you using this situation to cover all the news circulating about you?”The reporters who were listening had their brows furrowed upon hearing Oliver’s statement.Since they were in the hospital, no one there had an idea about the article released on Zayne being involved in embezzlement.“Oh my… Is this true? How could he betray Colossia like this?”“Accepting b

Trisha, who just woke up, doesn’t know what the commotion was all about in the hospital room.However, as much as she hated Oliver, she couldn’t let the real perpetrator get away with this.In that case, that was Zayne, who was looking at her intently—his eyes dark and subtly menacing.“Why can’t you answer, huh?” Trisha added to ask, her lips curving to a smirk. “Do you think I won’t know?”***Little did Zayne know, when his people tried to carry Trisha outside the abandoned building, it woke her up.She had a hard time opening her eyes since something inside her body was forcing her eyes shut.However, as she did, the first person he noticed was Oliver fighting with some bad guys.‘What the hell is he doing here…’ Trisha frowned, confused. ‘Ah, my head’s spinning.’Feeling dizzy, Trisha was about to close her eyes, but she noticed a familiar man to the side.‘Zayne Greensmith? The popular soldier in the Capital?’ she thought, her mouth widening in shock.‘Oh my… is he here to save

Trisha only scoffed in response. She covered her face with a blanket as a sign of protest.“Brat,” Carolina muttered, shaking her head.Some doctors and nurses visited her room a few minutes later to check her vitals and condition.Carolina called them because she was genuinely worried about her daughter.And unlike their hunch, Trisha wasn’t hit in the head. Her condition was fine except for some bruises she got from being tied by a rope.“Maybe it was from the trauma,” the doctor told Carolina, who was silently panicking to the side. “I suggest she stay here for the meantime so we can monitor her.”“Thank you, doctor.” Carolina sighed in relief.The doctor nodded and left the hospital room.“I’ll also leave you for now so you can take a rest and snap back to your senses.” Carolina heaved a sigh. “Get your facts straight, will you? We can’t afford to fight against Zayne Greensmith.”Trisha pursed her lips. “Of course, I know that, but… I’m afraid, Mom. This shit never happened to me

The next thing Legion V needed to find out was the reason for the partnership.“You’re right, but trust is earned, not given,” Oliver said, his eyes burning with determination.“And we’re going to see whether Charlie is deserving of that trust or not.”***Meanwhile, Dominic had just returned to Argus Industries.He was out of Colossia earlier to meet with a client, but he ended it abruptly upon receiving a text message from his right-hand man.[Argus Industries has been compromised. There were intruders in the building.]“Shit,” Dominic muttered a curse as someone opened the door for him.He entered the building, and he was immediately followed by five bodyguards on the back.One of Dominic’s managers, who was in charge of the top floor, went onto him, immediately keeping up with the pace.“What’s the situation?” Dominic asked, his walk calm yet urgent.“We lost the intruders, Sir,” the manager said, his voice low. He added, “They used an exit from the west wing—a location that wasn

Ray struck first, driving his elbow into the nearest guard’s temple. The man crumpled without a sound before losing consciousness.Oliver went to the second guard, twisting his arm behind his back before slamming him against the wall.The man groaned in pain, but Oliver’s hand clamped over his mouth to prevent being heard by the other guards possibly monitoring the hallway.“Don’t move. Don’t speak,” Oliver commanded as he leaned in, his voice low. “If you value your life, you’ll stay low.”Nodding frantically, the guard looked at Oliver, with his eyes widening.At first, Oliver hesitated to hurt the guard. After all, these two were ordinary guards patrolling the exit.However, a few seconds later, he knocked the guard out. They didn’t have time for risks.“Damn. I thought you’d let him be,” Ray teased, shaking his head.Oliver smirked. “Not a chance.”With the guards down, they both moved to the loading dock door.“We’re already outside, waiting for you two,” Samuel’s voice came t
Chapter 167: Locked
James typed aggressively onto his keyboard, looking at the third door’s password.“Be quick, James,” Nick said, looking onto the sniper scope. “Another batch of security is going through the storage room.”Instead of answering, James clicked on the information he found onto the screen.“The password is encrypted—”“No, it’s not,” Ray interrupted, already turning the handle. “The lock’s broken.”“That’s suspicious,” Samuel muttered. “And that could be a trap, Commander.”Oliver gritted his teeth. His gaze moved between the three doors and even on the pathway that would bring them back to the abandoned storage room.‘All of them had different risks, and the second door could be detrimental to our health as we’re unsure about the chemicals in the air,’ Oliver thought, frowning.He pondered for a few seconds. After that, he pushed the door open, revealing another narrow path—almost identical to the path they had walked onto earlier.The only difference is that this other path has yellow

“Got it. I already have a location where you are,” James told them after a few seconds.With his brows furrowing, Ray asked, “You mean, this secret passageway?”“Yeah.” James nodded although no one could see him. “That place isn’t in the main schematics, but I found a record of it in the archives.”He added, “If the record I can see here is this accurate, then there should be three doors in front of you.”Oliver and Ray looked at their front and realized that James was right. In front of them were three metal security doors with combination locks.“There is,” Oliver said, frowning in confusion. “This could… Is there more danger to it than fighting with the enemies outside?”“To be honest, I don’t know,” James admitted as he did his best to search for more information about the secret passageway.“There could only be two reasons,” Samuel said, preparing to leave. “Either that place was their old escape route…”“...Or they’re still using it for whatever reason, and that’s why they didn’
Chapter 165: Ray's Hunch
As soon as they entered the secret door, the enemies swarmed inside the room. But before they could find Oliver and Ray, the wall closed again.The silence filled the entire room for a while as no one spoke.They were only listening to the voices behind the wall, wondering whether those people also knew about the secret room.“All clear,” they heard a young man speak in the storage room. “There is no sign of anyone entering here, Sir.”“Alright,” another man answered—the one that was addressed as ‘sir.’ “Let’s get out of here. They might be hiding in other rooms.”“Yes, Sir.”Both of them heard footsteps running outside the storage room, and a few seconds later, it was gone.That’s the only time Ray could breathe properly.If those people knew about the secret door and his hunch was wrong, then it could be the end of them.“It was so dark in here,” Ray muttered, his gaze fixated in front. “Not even a single light could penetrate the area.”There was no window or other area aside from

“Alright,” Oliver answered, looking from left to right, quickly adjusting their vision to the dark.This was part of their training back in the Legion, and lucky for them, the people catching over them were just ordinary guards; they had no skills like Legion V.Because if it is, things might just get more complicated for them. There could be a bloody fight inside Argus Industries.However, since their only goal is to take information about Dominic Hawthorne and Argus Industries, Oliver and Ray do their best to avoid combat.“It’s clear,” Ray muttered as he reached the intersection first, halting just long enough to check both directions. “Let’s go!”Both of them sprinted down the corridor, yet their footsteps were silent against the carpeted floor.“Turn right,” said James on the other line, with his aggressive typing on the keyboard heard in the background. “At the end of the hall, you’ll see a maintenance stairwell.”“Is that exit safe?” Ray asked, his breathing ragged.“To be hone

Nick chuckled. “This is the first time you called Oliver ‘Commander’, huh?”“It’s because we’re on a mission,” James smirked as he typed again, accessing the security system he still had control over.Then, something caught his attention.“Commander, we have a problem,” James spoke to Oliver, who was making their way now toward the shortcut door that would lead to Dominic’s office.Frowning, Oliver asked, “What is it?”“There’s a biometric scanner on the shortcut door inside Dominic’s office,” James admitted, his hand-typing heard on the call. “I can’t bypass it remotely.”“Their security system intrigues me more,” Ray couldn’t help but say, seeing how the security tightens over time.Then, as they were already in front of the door of Dominic’s office, they saw it closely.The biometric scanner beside it glowed red, waiting for an authorized user.“James, is there any way to forge a scan?” Oliver asked, his tone low.“No.” James shook his head, although no one could see them. “You’d

A few seconds later, the elevator doors stopped on the second floor, and the real technicians moved towards the main control panels of the broken elevator.Oliver and Ray did their best to hide behind, taking James’ warning that there might be blind spots.“Let’s go do this quickly, everyone, so we can go home early,” the maintenance team leader said as they started taking off the tools.Then, she received a message.“They need two other maintenance on the top floor,” she said, her eyes scanning the team. There are five of them in total. “Who would volunteer?”“We’ll go,” Oliver said, raising his hand alongside Ray. “We’ll do the job quickly so all of us can go home without any problems.”“Alright.” she nodded, her expression stern. “Do your job properly. I’ll receive a message if you don’t.”Oliver and Ray nodded in unison.Little did the maintenance leader know, the message she received came from James, and not from an official employee of Argus Industries.“You may go,” she said,
Chapter 161: The Mission Begins
Oliver nodded, his mind already working through emergencies. “That’s why we stick to the plan,” he said, placing the tablet on the table. “No unnecessary risks.”Ray raised an eyebrow. “You sure about that? Every mission we’ve done together doesn’t exactly follow the plan.”Oliver chuckled, running a hand through his hair. “Let’s try to keep that from happening this time.”James cleared his throat. “Although I handle the CCTV loop and delete any footage of you as you move, I won’t be able to help you with the extra layer of security at Dominic’s office.”“Extra layer of security?” Ray asked, his brows furrowing.“Yeah.” James nodded. “A secondary system that isn’t connected to the main network.”Samuel’s eyes narrowed, looking James in the eye. “Which means?”James took the tablet from the table, tapping one side of the blueprint. “Which means that someone should physically disable it from inside the security room.”The silence filled their conversation for a moment. Then, Oliver’s
