Bang! Bang! Bang!f\ string of gunshots pierced through the air.
The 200 over soldiers from the Dragonfury Special Forces fired concurrently.
With all of them firing one shot each, the effect was like a prolonged gunshot.
If not listened to carefully, one could have easily mistaken it for the sound of thunder.
The single shots fired by each of the 200 Dragonfury soldiers were more than enough to extinguish all of Adalwolf's men. The 20 odd men fell dead almost at once when the shots sounded.
Every one of them had more than one gunshot wounds on their bodies.
These members of the Wolves mercenary force did not even get the chance to pull their triggers before they were all shot to death.
Overlooking the bodies of his enemies, Colin Dunne spoke without any emotion in his voice. "We have zero tolerance for
those who dare offend our country."
"Clean up the battlefield and retreat swiftly. Make sure not to alarm the General nor the residents nearby!”
"Yes, Captain!" The soldiers from the Dragonfury Special Forces answered in unison.
The bodies of Adalwolf and his men were dragged away speedily.
Traces of blood which had been spilt all over the ground were also removed.
Colin Dunne and his subordinates exited the scene in their container trucks without delay, as if the rainy night marred by bloodshed was just an illusion.
Nathan Cross, who had just finished dinner in a fast-food restaurant with his wife and daughter, suddenly received a message from Colin Dunne. The man texted,All cleared, everything is back to normal now.
The rain gradually subsided.
Nathan smiled at Penny and Queenie and said, "The rain isn't so heavy now, let's go home."
"Hooray! We can finally go home," the little girl cheered.
Nathan Cross drove his family back.
When they reached the Riverside Garden, he dropped his family at the door. He then informed his wife that he had something to handle and had to head off for a while.
Penny Smith did not think too much about it and took her daughter home. Before she left, she reminded her husband not to stay out too late.
"Sure, I'll be back soon," Nathan Cross answered the woman warmly.
