<h4>Chapter 1050 - Against The Odds</h4>


    Landon gazed at the brave men and women before him calmly.


    "Tonight, we will once again make our way into the battlefield.


    Yes. The enemy is strong, and the odds are against us.


    They arrived on Deifer Soil in full force, ready to find their target.


    They are prepared and ready to take on any inconveniences thate their way."


    Everyone’s heart sank deeply while listening to Landon.


    Their rigid bodies trembled with all the emotions they tried so hard to control.


    Even Lucius, Lucy and Ruby felt immense pressure threatening to swallow them whole.


    The salty air, the nonexistent heat, the blinding call of death made them feel trapped in this profound moment of truth.


    Despair was all they could see.


    .


    Landon squinted his eyes coldly and dared not y with the severity of the matter.


    "I tell you now. The odds are against us!!


    The enemy might have thousands and thousands of warriors by their side, while we, on the other hand, only have a team of 700.


    We don’t know much, and we neither have time to investigate or look into the matter!


    One false move, and it will cost your lives!"


    "Even though the odds are against us, we have always been miracle workers!


    Heh. These arrogant pirates think they can juste to our continent and do whatever they like?


    Well, not on our watch!


    Just recently, we weed Deiferus as one of our own.


    And now, it seems like the time hase for us to help them in their time of need.


    Our sources say they’ll also use this opportunity to kidnap, force and capture many innocent people, turning them into ves.


    These people have been separated from their loved ones and are in dire need of help.


    So how can we turn our backs on them?


    Yes! It might seem like we are on the losing side, but I beg to differ.


    I might even go as far as saying that you are the most skilled in the world.


    Your training and experience are far ahead of many.


    And that’s why I, your Monarch and leader, am very proud of the fine men and women you’ve be.


    Lift your heads and beat your c.h.e.s.ts proudly because you all are the best of the best!!!"


    .


    As if it were spring, countless positive emotions flooded their bodies when they listened to Landon.


    Yes. They were the best of the best.


    They weren’t messiahs or anything of that sort.


    But for the innocent captured, they also had a duty to help when they could.


    If Baymard didn’t stretch its hands to save or wee them, where would they be now?


    They were fighting for a just cause, to stop all these pirates and Morgs from trailing over their people time and time again.


    Enough was enough!


    Something needed to get done. And if they who had the power couldn’t do it, then who would?


    If things always remained the way they were, it’ll slowly but undoubtedly affect Baymard too.


    With great poweres great responsibility.


    The battle was no doubt a tricky one.


    But they had the training and experience to back it up!


    The frosty winter winds on their hearts thawed and melted away, revealing their excellence.


    She clenched her fists and swore to do her very best, as well as look after everyone in the team she was leading.


    There was no chance for slip-ups!


    .


    Seeing that they had adjusted their emotions, Landon nodded his head in satisfaction.


    "Tonight. We are a nameless Hidden organization.


    Whatever the enemy thinks we are, is exactly what we are.


    For this mission, you are only to take your standard arm gear, which acts as an arm shield, pepper spray, torch, taser and also has a built-in walkie-Talkie micmunicator in it.


    You are also permitted to take your night and heat vision goggles, your flexible protective ck gear, as well as your thin coated c.h.e.s.t gear and thin helmets underneath your assigned uniforms.


    As for weapons, only smoke bombs, grenades, and a few others will be used on the scene alongside daggers, swords and bows & arrows.


    Even though we will be using no firepower to deal with the situation, I believe every one of you will still give the enemy hell!" Landon bellowed, and everyone firmed their hearts for the battle ahead.


    .


    That’s right.


    For this battle, they wouldn’t use any guns at all.


    They were trying to keep their images intact.


    So no guns or any items that could make people think it was the Baymardian taser.


    As for their protective gear, firstly, their attire was all ninja-designed, only revealing their eyes.


    So underneath the stretchy ninja mask, they would wear the very thinyered metal helmet, as well as their c.h.e.s.t gear.


    As for the gear on their arms and legs, they could reveal it and wear it out of their attire.


    To him, it wouldn’t make much of a difference since the gear was also ck and blended in with the ck ninja uniform.


    Geir attire also had secretpartments for them to store their dangers and a few grenades.


    As for swords, spears and all other things, they could very well get those after defeating one of the pirates there.


    Right now, their focus was to blend in like real ninjas within a secret organization.


    So, because they weren’t using guns, the battle would be slower, and anything can happen.


    This was the impending danger hovering above them.


    Today, they would test just how far they could go without some conveniences from technology.


    The tension was high!!!


    .


    "Just as nned, the Shaolins will be in charge of most of the battle, while the Marines will move in and rescue any captives.


    You might also have to sneak into some estates to get the job done.


    So be on high alert!


    I want everyone back safely.


    Is that UNDERSTOOD?"


    "Yes, Sir!!"


    "Good.


    May the heavens be with you.


    Now Go Destroy them All!!"
