"Because there is a very important person among this group of students."
The young man with silver-blond hair played with the wolf-shaped badge in his hand and said, and his words made the gray-haired federal general look slightly shuddered.
"Is it that girl?"
"She is also a 'His Royal Highness'?"
This exploration operation was very important, otherwise elite federal soldiers and he would not have been deployed personally.
Naturally, the sudden joining of a group of young archeology students required a lot of approvals, but this matter was driven by the Tagli family, so this seemingly 'nonsensical' request was passed very smoothly.
This shows that many people will die...
He read the list of these students and was very impressed by the girl named Daenerys among them.
Because of the other party's dazzling silver-gold hair and bright, clear lavender eyes...
He made a bold guess when he saw Daenerys, and then he immediately set out to verify his guess.
The general called the FBI to request the girl's information, but the information fed back to him was that the girl's information was not in the FBI's system.
In other words, they are not qualified to investigate the other party's background and all the information. Some only have a name and a photo to prove the existence of such a girl.
"General Desmond."
On the other side, Theon Tagre glanced at the federal general who looked like an extraordinary person, and interrupted him.
Then he withdrew his gaze, remained silent for a moment, and then spoke in a warning tone.
"You should understand that the more you know about some things, the easier it is to get angry."
"Don't think blindly."
...
Early the next morning.
The atmosphere in the camp became lively early. After a night's rest, the students who were tired from traveling yesterday became energetic again. They knew that today's practical course was about to begin.
The students were all very motivated, and Professor Wilson, as their tutor, naturally got up early and packed up the things they needed to use today.
"Good morning."
"professor."
At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Hank also rushed over. He was dressed differently from yesterday. Today he put on a combat uniform, with a tactical helmet on his head and a submachine gun loaded with bullets.
Because compared to the archeology professor and his young disciples who had an extraordinary status in the field before them, these federal soldiers understood the dangers of this ancient tomb better.
The mission of exploring this ancient tomb has lasted for half a year.
From the earliest days when explosions were discovered accidentally, the federal government secretly issued orders, and the military dispatched the most elite soldiers to perform tasks. Now, the entire periphery of the ancient tomb has been roughly cleaned up. During this period, heavy casualties were paid. Faced with those terrible monster.
This seems like a nightmare...
Although everything has passed, now every night when he closes his eyes, Lieutenant Colonel Hank seems to be in that hell again.
Chu tu tu tu——
The elite federal soldiers sprayed flames from their guns, bullets rammed in the small space, the monsters seeking life in the dark, the wailing sounds of the comrades who usually lived together day and night, the blood splattered on his face, that incomparable reality The touch, the pungent smell of blood, etc...
He would wake up suddenly from nightmares and find that the bedding was soaked with sweat.
This is Lieutenant Colonel Hank's nightmare, even more terrifying than the hail of bullets he faced on the Gulf battlefield.
He has never thought that there are such monsters in this world. They have human-like figures, and their bodies are covered with hair that looks like rotten food. They are extremely agile, have a pair of scarlet eyes, and are completely bloodthirsty.
monster.
These things that he once thought would only appear on TV actually appeared before his eyes, and easily claimed their lives.
These were the initial exploration stages when the federal army just took over the ruins, and they were also the most difficult stages.
Lieutenant Colonel Hank, as an officer with outstanding merit in the Gulf battlefield, was among the first batch to be deployed here to lead the team personally, but he also paid a heavy price due to unfamiliarity and fear.
However, their sacrifice was not completely fruitless.
After gradually mastering the characteristics of these monsters, military think tanks and experts in related fields made timely adjustments and made a huge contribution to clearing the peripheral area of the ruins.
However, now, after the last mission, Lieutenant Colonel Hank received a period of psychological treatment and signed a confidentiality agreement.
Then he rested for more than three months to recuperate his body and mind, and then he was once again activated by General Desmond and returned to this nightmare land.
Because as the commander-in-chief of Operation Ruins, we will explore the deeper parts of the ruins next.
General Desmond needs to be very familiar with the terrain and the characteristics of these monsters. Lieutenant Colonel Hank, who has rich combat experience, continues to shine.
Protect the safety of Professor Wilson and other experts and scholars and successfully complete this mission.
"Ready to go, boys."
In the camp, the students and the soldiers responsible for this mission have all assembled.
Naturally, we no longer need to take a bus when entering the mountains this time, but instead use an off-road vehicle. There is also a section that requires walking.
"Hey, Danni, Rosie, those guys didn't harass you yesterday, did they?"
At this moment, Rosie's boyfriend Hard, who was in the four-person team, came over and glanced at the soldiers over there with hostility, and then asked, and with Hard was the boy from the North.
He also looked over with concern.
"We're fine."
"We drove them away."
Daenerys and Rosie heard their friends' concerns, smiled slightly and said.
…
Boom boom boom…
Not long after, a convoy of more than a dozen off-road vehicles officially set off towards the ruins amidst the noise.
In the front of each vehicle sat a driver and a soldier responsible for security, while three to four students were crowded in the back.
The weather today was pretty good, the sun was shining brightly. The convoy passed through dense forest roads, drove for a long time and finally arrived at their destination amidst bumps.
"Wow..."
"Gods above."
And all the students who saw the scene in front of them couldn't help but open their mouths and let out exclamations.
Because the mountain in front of us has been cut into almost half, the traces of gunpowder damage can be clearly seen.
The military almost blew up half the mountain to clear out the monsters outside the ruins to prevent them from escaping from here.
"Sir."
"Let go!"
The soldiers responsible for protection and inspection saluted Lieutenant Colonel Hank.
After the convoy passed the inspection, it successfully drove through the giant hole that was blasted by gunpowder.
