Chapter 618 - The Army Is at Our Doorstep

Chapter 618. The Army Is at Our Doorstep (Part One)

The group that had escaped from the Deviant Corp disbanded right away.
A captain with a group of fifteen people in total was intercepted by the mercenaries of the three major mercenary groups on the road.
The three major mercenary groups were looking around for the Deviant Corp’s basecamp; this area did not belong to them, so they did not know the exact location of the Deviant Corp. They also suspected that the Deviant Corp would take this opportunity to flee, so along the way, they intercepted anyone as long as the group was a suspicious size of more than ten rather than spare any chance of them escaping.
If necessary, they would even take action to exterminate these stragglers.
This group of ex-members from the Deviant Corp panicked when they saw the three major mercenary groups, and they quickly turned their horses away to escape. But how could they out run their opponents, who were in jeeps?
Plus, the horses were tired after traveling for some days, and having heard the gunfire, they panicked and threw the people off their backs. The other members would then have to turn around and save the people who fell off, causing all of them to be surrounded by the three major mercenary groups.
It was the heirs of the Murong Family, Li Family, and Ye Family who were leading this alliance.
They walked up to the front with smoke in their mouth and looked down at the fifteen ex-members of the Deviant Corp who had escaped, asking,
Which mercenary group are you from?

One of the three mercenary clans’ subordinates pulled the captain’s collar and revealed a Cobra tattoo.
Sir, he should be a Cobra.


A Cobra? One of the top 20 mercenary groups in the league? Why are you guys running around?

That captain didn’t say a word.
Murong Fu raised his eyebrows at the captain’s attitude.
His subordinate immediately kicked the captain over and pulled him up by his hair.
We’re asking you a question! Answer nicely if you don’t want to die.


Alright.
Murong Fu waved his hand.
This area of the Dragon Family was already the hardest hit area of this tournament, and with the joint siege of 10 countries, how could they not run? This area should also be taken over by us three mercenary groups in the future. You guys are locals around here after all, and if you want to submit to us, then we will give you the opportunity to manage this property. How’s that? If you’re willing, then take us to where the Deviant Corp is. Once we find it and exterminate this last area, this will be our world, and we’ll give you the chance to earn merits.

His words surprised a few of them.
But as soon as that captain and a few others heard that they wanted to exterminate the Deviant Corp, they didn’t want to do it; this kind of backstabbing act was considered shameful in the mercenary world.
Because in this chaotic land, others hired you and gave you a living, and although being a mercenary was a life-risking job, the employee must not break some rules, one of which was betraying your boss. It was an equally shameful act for mercenaries to kill their boss, as such an act would put them in a more shameful situation than if they were to brutally kill women and kids.
One of the ex-members encouraged his captain when he saw him hesitate.
What are we waiting for? The three mercenary groups will eventually take over anyways in the foreseeable future.

This was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once the three major mercenary groups completely ruled at least two-thirds of the land of mercenaries, their influence would be even stronger than that of the Continental Mercenaries. By then, as long as there were no rebellions and they develop properly for a few years, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to eventually establish a nation for themselves. By then, what would be the point for them to resist? Just so they could be famous?
The captain suddenly said,
We don’t know of any Deviant Corp, we’ve escaped without contact since the tournament took place over the winter.

Three of the other ex-members who were intending to flip over stared at their boss with their eyes widened.

Chapter 618. The Army Is at Our Doorstep (Part Two)


We know!
These three immediately spoke up,
We know where it is.

That captain glared at them,
Where’s your integrity?!

Bang!
Murong Fu blew the captain’s head off with a gunshot.
Blood splattered across the faces of those captured mercenaries who stared blankly at their dead captain.
His unclosed wide eyes stared at the three culprits who sold them out.

Lead the way. Everyone has hardships and we are all on the same boat. There won’t be any Cobras or any other ones. There will only be the three mercenary groups.
Murong Fu smiled.
The three were so scared when they saw their captain die in front of them. But they pretended to be smiling as they got pulled into another van at the front.
The rest of the others also successively got on the truck, and were considered to be on the same boat.
According to the address, they were now directly rushing to the basecamp without taking extra turns, saving them with more time.
The three members who were willing to lead the way said to the three mercenary groups,
The Deviant Corp’s territory is up there. If you want, I can explain their situation.

Suddenly, one of the other 11 ex-members of the Deviant Corp pulled out a dagger and rushed towards the three.
I’ll fcking kill you three traitors!

After he stabbed a guy in the chest, he was finished off by the other mercenaries of the three major mercenary groups with a single shot.
Before he died, he said to the other ten brothers who were watching him,
Do you want to live like this?

The ten ex-members gritted their teeth hard; the death of their captain in front of them had already ignited their anger, and they rushed up as they tried to take out the two remaining traitors.
One of them snatched the grenade directly from the waist of one of the mercenaries and pulled the pin before jumping towards Murong Fu, shouting,
I’ll fcking trade your life for my life!

Murong Fu was scared but luckily a brave mercenary pushed him out of the way and was killed by the explosion, saving Murong Fu’s life with his own.
The remaining nine ex-members went straight mad, grabbing their guns and aiming at the two traitors. They had been holding a grudge against the three traitors for getting the captain killed along the way.
Choosing to run away from the Deviant Corp made them feel like lousy people, but they never thought that they would become trash bags who betray their old bosses. So they couldn’t bear it anymore and would rather die than become such people.
The three ex-member traitors that led the way were all dead, and the riotous nine went crazy and took them out. After the guy who tried to die with Murong Fu was blown up, Murong Fu walked up to his dying corpse with his gun on his shoulder, while the ex-member was spurting blood all over his mouth.

Trying to kill me, huh? I’ll let you die a clean death!

This ex-member smiled deviously at him, tugging at his own arm that still bore the proud tattoo of the Deviant Corp as he said,
We are the Deviant Corp!

He was then shot consecutively with an AK-47 by the annoyed Murong Fu. However, a breeze suddenly blew past them all and the gang felt a shadow shift across them. By the time they realized, the almost dead mercenary had suddenly disappeared from their sight!
On the mountain top, Lin Dong, who was watching everything with his binoculars said,
The good news is that Dulson saved a man, but the bad news is that the army is overwhelming, at least five hundred mercenaries in size!

Having said that, he immediately came down as Dulson  reopened the door, carrying in the only remaining ex-member not killed by the three major mercenary clans.
Quick, his heart is still beating hard, can he live?

Lin Dong led him and said,
Follow me.

Luo Yi shouted,
Everyone get ready, they’re coming!

The dark clouds shrouded the top of the mountain. Today would be a big battle for them, a fight without Xu Cheng at their side, therefore they could only play a defensive role.
