Chapter 375: Ambush



Chapter 375: Ambush

At the end of the second night, Shen Security has been considered the company that would win the competition. They already have the second flag without having any injuries. They also stayed in the trees most of the time, only going down to find some food around the area.

Originally, targeting these people shouldn't be that hard. However, the trees where they were staying had a lot of yellow jackets. It seems that Lyca's people were using the insects to defend them against the enemies.

This made it very hard to even approach the trees that they were staying. Then another problem arrived. No one saw the flags of Shen Security.

Since they were staying in the trees, they didn't put their flag in a single spot and actually hid them. So, is this a violation of the rules? It should be right?

Wrong.

The rules didn't say anything about hiding the flag. It only said that they could do everything to protect it. Of course, hiding it somewhere while everyone is running around is prohibited. For example, you cannot bury the flag in a safe place and leave it there. However, hiding the flag in a person's body is not prohibited as you are still carrying the flag with you.

Everyone on the TV saw that the flag is still there and Shen Security would actually pass it around. The flag doesn't just stay with one person. They would pass it and then they would protect the person that has the flag by staying in the trees around that person. The tree that is keeping the one with the flag would also have a lot of insects around it. It would be difficult to approach it if you aren't wearing that armor that would stop the insects from biting them.

Now that they already have two flags, they are now passing around not just one flag but two! Then the people who had the flags would stay in two different protected trees.

"Actually, they were using that rope that they were carrying to secure them in the trees." Someone from Long Security said. "They use it to keep them from falling in case they sleep too much."

"Sleep too much? They really dared to sleep during a competition like this? How arrogant!"

"The insects are keeping them safe."

"I thought this was prohibited?"

"It's none lethal, unless you are allergic to Yellow jackets then you would surely die in a matter of minutes. So how are we going to attack them? We don't have anything that could cover our entire body. Our armors aren't enough to protect us from the bites. And we weren't sure if we are allergic to the bites. If we are then we would surely die here!"

"Sir, someone from Dal Valley is here. They said they wanted to talk!"

Everyone turned silent as they looked at their leader. The man's name was Leo, and he was considered the captain of the team. "The sun is up so we can't fight. It's alright. Let them in."

"Yes, sir."

After a few minutes, two people walked inside the first floor of the tower. One of them was only wearing a shirt and pants without any armor. This person was none other than Crow. He, along with his team, was the first person who suffered from Shen Security.

Those people took away his clothes, only leaving him in his underwear. Unlike his naked teammates, Crow was still considered lucky. He figured that maybe the person who removed his clothes was a woman. Thus, she left him with his underwear.

"We are here because we want to cooperate with you." The man who spoke was called Rat, or at least his teammates called him Rat because he looked like one. While this nickname made him furious before, he had gotten used to it as time passed by.

"Cooperate? You think we would let you in our tower so you could steal our flag?" Someone asked.

"The Shen Security embarrassed us. They made fun of us and made us lose our face in front of everyone. There is no going back. We will destroy them. We don't care about the flag anymore!" Crow said. He gnashed his teeth as he recalled the embarrassment that they felt when they woke up upside down on that tree. It was so horrifying, he would surely remember it until he grows old.

"So you are not going to go inside our tower?" Leo asked.

"No. We wanted to set up a trap. We are certain that they would target you tonight. We will ambush them." Rat said.

"And what would happen after you ambush them? What about their flag?"

"Naturally, it would go to you. After we take care of them, we would announce that we are not going to continue with the competition. After all, killing is prohibited."

"You "

"Yes, we are planning to skin them alive!" Crow said. The humiliation that he and his people felt that time would be doubled, even tripled! They would surely have their revenge tonight!

"You wanted to kill them? That is against the law!"

"What is against the law is none of your concern anymore," Crow said. "Those people made us lose face. If we won't kill them, our Dal Valley would surely lose its clients."

"He is right. Dal Valley is known for being ruthless. We don't need to show any mercy towards them." Rat added.

"So? Your men would just wait outside?" Leo was still hesitating. He knew that these people should not be trusted. At this point, his only concern is the flags. He needed to have the flag and win this competition. If Dal Valley would ambush those people, then that would mean that would have access to the flags first. The temptation would be too strong!

What if they take the flag and take care of Long Company after they kill those people from Shen Security!?

"Yes, we will wait outside. I promise you. I would not take the flag. We were only here to kill them!"
