Untouchable: Reaper of the Battlefield

As with previous missions, the soldiers' faces are all covered by visors.

But even with their gestures and voices, the vows realized that the soldiers who helped them had all been replaced.

There were eight soldiers assigned this time.

Seowon divided the soldiers into two groups and rode two SUVs with the man in charge of Hamid Karzai.

The vows silently observe the soldiers assigned to them.

Check and load M4 and Glock for dry mechanical sound, plug-in earphones and micro radio.

You feel a strange tension, unlike the soldiers before you.

‘These guys are weird. ’

A soldier with a lot of shooting experience can be distinguished just by the way he inspects a gun. An Operationally Experienced Soldier is not hesitant to inspect communication equipment.

However, these soldiers were not good at either.

I'm sure. These guys are rookies. George Sims, this is how it's gonna go down? ’

Organizations that send recruits on VIP escort missions do not exist anywhere in the world.

Seowon was convinced that George Sim had prepared this mission by gripping it to screw himself.

The car stopped.

When I got out of the car, I saw a building that I thought was a city hall in front of 100 meters.

Oakley gives the order via radio.

“I am ready for this mission here. Preparation time is also an hour. ”

* * *

Seowon looked around the city hall through binoculars.

Just like many countries, government offices are heavily organized around them.

Tidy streets, well-maintained flowerpots, and clean conditions.

Seowon constantly looked at the location where the mission would be set and wondered what variables might occur.

'Enemies must be ambushed as this is a melee escort mission. Then, who will appear as enemies? Which enemy is the worst? Who would bother me the most? ’

An idea struck the head of the vow.

The worst opponents for mercenaries are neither anti-government personnel, highly trained special forces, nor large regular troops. A civilian.

Then the mayor of Hamid Karzai is likely to be corrupt enough to buy civic contributions.

The head of the vow shifts, inferring the identity of the enemy to deal with this time.

How many? What root will you attack with? ’

The front of the city hall is open.

Even though an angry crowd rushes in from Saba at once, it's not strange at all.

Protection of the factor in a situation surrounded by excited citizens. Along with the recruits.

Nothing out of the ordinary happens.

He spits on the floor and mutters.

“Damn, that's tough. ”

Complaining in an irreversible situation is pointless.

Instead of committing self-destructive acts, the vows decided to focus on solving the mission.

I summoned the soldiers.

Did he just finish his freshman training course?

A full-face helmet covering my face still doesn't fit. I felt awkward holding the M4.

This will be their first mission.

“We divide into two groups. Scouting and escorting teams first enter the city hall to investigate the interior of the building. Radio the number of people on site, the location of the entrance and exit. The escort team serves to escort the factors. ”

You feel the breath of the soldiers breathing heavily.

I felt a strong tension and a weak excitement in the soldiers.

As with previous missions, vows told the guards the basics of escorting factors.

Maintain diamond formations all around the VIP, never fire until instructed.

The reconnaissance team was familiar with the same. Never encourage citizens. Do not fire lightly.

There were so many other things I wanted to tell you. But the vows kept their mouths shut. Information that cannot be digested by beginners who are only motivated becomes poisonous.

After familiarizing yourself with the basics, unlike previous missions, vows practiced with the recruiting and escort teams.

After several iterations, I saw the movement ripen.

The vows commanded them to rest and then took their time alone.

‘This can't be all...' ’

Something strange has been holding his mind for a long time.

I am confident that there will be certain instructions to undermine my mission.

* * *

Prior to the start of the mission, Seowon appointed the team leader to be the fastest trained Reconnaissance Soldier. His job is to communicate the instructions of the vows to his team members and communicate the situation to them on the radio in advance.

A road that doesn't let even the scattered winds blow.

There was not a single person on or off the road. All that exists now is the sound of a man's rough breathing and the dust on the floor.

It was the voice of vows delivered to the earphones that woke the static.

“Enter Reconnaissance. ”

Four soldiers in a perimeter fire position moved towards the city hall.

The vows that looked at the soldiers mechanically performing the operations written in the textbook did not slow them down.

A short while later, the situation was communicated on the radio.

“The entrance to the building is all I have left. I don't see an emergency exit. There's a stairway up to the second floor... ”

There can't be a single entrance to the bureau. There can be no emergency exit.

However, the vows did not go away. What I'm about to say will only add to my embarrassment.

“When you're done figuring things out, come out and watch out. ”

After a short while, four soldiers come out of the entrance and cover themselves in cover.

The escort team's mission has begun with a call to acknowledge the operation.

Four soldiers, slightly bent at the waist, surround a man with a diamond-shaped beard, enraged by Hamid Kargyro.

On the other hand, it was hard to find tension in a vow of solitude in front of the line. If I didn't have a rifle in my hand, I'd be mistaken for someone walking around town. The freshly cooked shadow moves are triggered.

* * *

Oakley keeps blinking as she watches the situation through her binoculars.

“Is your eyesight getting worse...? ”

I felt that I was constantly blurring the way the vows caught my eye.

He turned his gaze and the other soldiers looked as clear as usual.

Oakley looks at the two targets in turns, thinking that she needs to go to the ophthalmology department.

* * *

‘There's got to be a trick. ’

Seowon attempted to enter the building without slowing down his guard.

At that moment, a strange sound was heard in his senses, as sharpened as a blade.

< Straps! >

The head of the vow shifts toward the direction of the sound.

I noticed that the soldier who was escorting Hamid Karzai on the right stepped on a well-preserved flower bed beneath the civil wall.

“Get out of the flowerpot now. ”

The soldier did not understand the instructions.

He stands still and tilts his head.

“Number four! Under no circumstances should you provoke a citizen! Get off the bed now! ”

The surprised soldier hurriedly leaves the flowerpot as he shouts. But thanks to that, more flowers were trampled on by the boots.

That's when someone in the village raised their head and shouted.

I didn't understand what the vows were about.

He chose the second language in Arabic during Delta Force. because the Koran is written in Arabic.

The language caught in my ears was not Arabic. As soon as I heard it, I was able to understand the identity of the language. It was the official term Pashto in Afghanistan.

Even a Pashto speaker means that Hart International is well prepared to make money noticing the impending bloodshed in the Middle East.

How do we know there's gonna be a case in the Middle East? So you're foreseeing 9/11, too? ’

I was overwhelmed with arrogance.

Seowon shakes his head and clears his mind.

The important thing now is not to question the unanswered question, but to solve the mission in front of you.

The contents of Pashto could not be determined, but they could be predicted.

Verbal content accounts for only 20% of human communication. The remaining 80% is delivered by non-verbal means such as gestures or expressions.

The man's gesture told me everything.

As the vows pointed out, the problem was the flowerpot the soldier was treading on.

This is Kandahar.

Located 1,000 m above sea level, Kandahar is a city with a long tradition.

It has ruled as the capital of Afghanistan for more than a thousand years, and is a strategic point between South Asia and Central Asia where many countries have invaded to occupy it.

Residents' generosity cannot be good because of the invasion war that takes place once every 50 years. It is a place that tends to protect its own property and not lose money.

I was angry because I trampled the painter's flowerpot without his permission.

It's a very detailed simulation.

Seowon carefully turns back to calm the angry villagers. But at that moment, three of the cannonballs exploded.

Bam! Bam! Ta-ang! >

A large number of people appeared as a signal for the sound of the cannonballs.

Long-grown beard, turban on the head and a mask covering the face.

They were soldiers disguised as Pashtuns.

They have no weapons in their hands. It means civilian. But I don't know what's hidden in those flabby clothes.

As new people emerge, the tension of the soldiers rapidly increases.

The vows were directed by radio.

“All hands on deck. Weapons are strictly forbidden. Repeat once more. Do not fire on civilians! ”

He turns around and shouts to the security team.

“Lower your stance and make your way to the destination with breaking news! Avoid stimulating citizens as much as possible. ”

The security team moved toward the city hall at a rapid rate.

Along with him, almost thirty civilians also walked towards the city hall.

In less than a minute, the security team entered the city hall entrance.

“What about the mayor?"

“I'm waiting inside. ”

Seowon entered the city hall building.

Inside the city hall was an empty space with nothing.

At that moment, I felt that all of this was a fabricated situation.

Seowon approached a large market and said.

“We're pulling out in 30 minutes. ”

The mayor nodded.

When Seowon gestured, a security team waiting at the entrance of the building went inside with Karzai.

“In 30 minutes, we leave. Be vigilant and don't let your guard down. ”

The vows gave a brief instruction and examined the entrance, both inside and out of the building.

As expected, there was another entrance the scouts couldn't find, and the emergency exit was hidden under the stairs.

The hallway to the emergency exit is connected to the building entrance.

If so, you just have to guard the entrance well. Good news.

The civilians were getting closer to the city hall.

They have club-like objects in their hands.

‘Anger scenario against a corrupt market as expected? ’

The vows instructed the soldiers again.

“Put the gun to the ground. Never aim at a person. ”

The soldiers looked nervous, but there was no need to worry now.

A shoulder-high wall of adult men was placed in front of the citizens, and an iron barricade was prepared when they crossed it.

I felt like I had enough time to avoid my body even when the worst was happening.

* * *

Thirty minutes passed quickly.

The civilians gathered at the city hall entrance shouted an incomprehensible sound, and there was fear and tension in the eyes of the soldiers looking at it.

After checking the time, the vows entered the building and shouted.

“Move!!! ”

Just like when they came in, the escort team took a step, surrounded by diamonds.

Outside the building, the voices of angry citizens grew louder.

“Their voice is not towards us. So you don't have to worry. All we have to do is go our own way! ”

The vows moved the soldiers away in silence.

I felt the need to herd a reconnaissance team 20 metres ahead. But I chose to move in together because I didn't know what would happen.

Citizens only shouted and posed no threat.

It was so strange. The mission couldn't have gone so easily.

Suddenly, as my throat got cooler, one word came to mind in Seowon's head.

Trap.

‘I have never heard of such an easy test in the world. You can't let us go so easily. If so, there must be a hidden goal not included in the mission objective. ’

Seowon remembered what had happened so far as he moved his steps.

Oakley's description of the last mission, soldiers, and mission...

At that moment, I felt strange in Oakley's description.

‘Karzai is a humble person, comes from a good family and is fluent in four languages, including English. He is the next mayor, supported by the United States and the United Kingdom. But because of this, some gangs and armed groups have been targeted.... ’

‘Hamid Karzai will meet with the mayor of Kandahar. You must protect Hamid Karzai with your team. ’

If this is a real operation, you should familiarize yourself with all the information about the surrounding situation on thick paperwork. However, most of these tests tell us what kind of behavior you do after targeting.

‘There were a lot of tests and subtitles. Then there must be something hidden that has not been stated. ’

Seowon's brain rotated rapidly.

‘It revealed the political background of Karzai. Packed nicely, but his identity is American puppet. This person takes risks and meets the market under the protection of foreign soldiers. So the real objective is……? ’

The puzzle was quickly solved.

“Stop!!!!! ”

At the same time as the pledge, the soldiers pause.
