Tactics
Sophie searched through the system thoroughly, leaving not a single stone unturned. Much to her
dismay. there was still no trace of Felix.
“There’s nothing.”
Sophie shook her head, skeptical of the unfruitful search.
Since Arthur had informed them that Felix was there, she was certain that Felix had to be there.
However, they had not been successful in their attempts in finding Felix. Where could they have hidden
him?
“From the looks of it, we’ll have to kidnap someone for an interrogation,” Tristan stated. It seemed to be
their only option at that moment.
“Agreed. The patrolling troops should be here soon. Let’s grab one of them to ask. There’s one
problem, though. There are five people in one troop, so it’ll be difficult to remain under the radar if we
kidnap five people at once.”
“Let’s just kill the other four!” Tristan suggested. “Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome if someone were to find
out.”
“All right.” Sophie did not object. That was the most effective method to get things done. Any other way
might lead to unnecessary complications.
“Let’s head over there. Sophie pointed at a corner a few meters away. “I’ve already disconnected the
surveillance cameras there, and there aren’t any sentinels. Plus, it’s a blind spot. That’ll make it easier
for us to attack.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
Tristan checked his surroundings before moving into position. The two of them moved quickly but
stealthily to the spot Sophie had suggested.
Hiding behind a bush, they waited for the next patrol troop to arrive.
Fandar had always been known for its hot climate. The temperature that day was as high as forty
degrees Celsius, which was unfortunate for Sophie. She had never liked the heat.
Not only did they have to move fast, but they had to hide against numerous skilled fighters. It was no
surprise that they were drenched in their sweat.
“Once we find Felix, we’re telling him that he owes us a good meal,” Tristan grumbled. The heat was
unforgiving, but for Felix’s sake, they pressed on.
“Mm-hmm.” Sophie wiped a handful of sweat away from her face. She despised being covered in
sweat, but she did not have much choice at the moment.
“They should be here in around two minutes.” Fishing a handgun out of her pocket, Sophie then
attached a silencer to the muzzle.
“There shouldn’t be any problem with this silencer, right?” The silencer belonged to Tristan. Sophie had
yet to use it. Hence, she was unsure about the quality of the equipment.
Nope.
The silencer had been specially modified for improvements. Just then, a shootout seemed to have
broken out outside the military base, which conveniently diverted the attention of their enemies.
The two of them had found a perfect hiding spot. Soon, a patrol troop consisting of five people showed
up, as they had predicted.
“I’ll take three: you take two. Remember, I’ll keep one of them alive,” Tristan instructed.
Sophie bobbed her head in understanding.
As he fell silent, Tristan raised his hand and began to signal. Three, two, one!
In reality, Sophie had not seen his signal. Nonetheless, both of them fired at the exact same time.
Not only so, but all of their shots went straight through the skulls of the guards. As discussed, Tristan
left one of the men alive. With Sophie protecting his back. Tristan dragged the remaining guard to a
dark
corner.
“Who are you? What do you want?” the guard who was held captive barked at them in panic. “If Kaarle
finds out that you guys dare to break and enter, he’ll never let you off the hook!”
Pulling out a dagger, Sophie pointed the sharp tip at the man’s chest, right above his heart.
“You are to answer whatever I ask you. Don’t beat around the bush. I don’t like too much noise,”
Sophie stated icily. “Do you hear me?”
As he met Sophie’s gaze, the man could only nod his head in surrender. All of them were merely
working for Kaarle for money. It was no surprise that the man would choose to protect himself in a life-
or-death situation.
“You interrogate this guy. I’ll take care of the four dead bodies,” Still keeping a warning glare on the
captive, Tristan gestured to Sophie. They had to get rid of the bodies quickly. Otherwise, they could get
into huge trouble.
Sophie nodded in response.
Interrogating was her strong suit.
As she kept a close eye on the captive, Sophie guessed that he knew he was on the losing end. After
she was certain that the guard would not dare to try anything, Sophie took out her phone, opened the
photo album, and showed him a photo of Felix.
“Have you seen this person?”
A glint of suspicion flickered across the captive’s eyes. Are these two here to look for this person?
However, upon remembering Kaarle’s commands, he immediately shook his head.
“I’ve never seen him. Not once in my entire life.” The man denied it. Thinking that Sophie was too
intimidating, he did not dare to even look at her as he lied through his teeth.
“Are you sure? All right, then. Guess you’re not of much use to me. If that’s the case, then I suppose I
can only…” Sophie stopped mid-sentence as she stabbed the tip of the dagger into the man’s chest,
right on top of where his heart should be. “From the looks of it, you don’t believe that I can kill you.”
As the blade pierced through his flesh, a sharp pain shot from his chest, causing the man to pale. If the
dagger were to go any deeper, it would be his last night on Earth.
“I’ll speak! I’ll tell you everything!” The man was terrified out of his wits. No one in their right mind would
want to die. It was a much better option to remain alive. After all, there would only be hope if one was
alive.
“Good.” Sophie nodded approvingly. “Do not try to lie. Otherwise, no matter which corner of this earth
you hide in, I will find you, and I will tear you to shreds!”
The guard quickly nodded in response.
He no longer dared to lie at that moment. All he wanted was to live a peaceful life. He could care less
about who won and who lost in the end. After all, it had nothing to do with him.
“This guy was captured by none other than Kaarle himself. He’s locked in the Disciplinary Hall.
However, if you’re trying to save him, it won’t be an easy task. There are countless people guarding the
Disciplinary Hall. Each one of them is a mercenary specially hired by Kaarle for a hefty amount.
Usually, no one would dare to go there. All of the people locked there are big shots captured by
Kaarle.”
“Oh? The Disciplinary Hall, you say?” Sophie narrowed her eyes. Kaarle sure is bold!
By then, Tristan had gotten rid of the bodies and had returned.
“Got anything out of him?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“What do we do with this guy?” Tristan asked. Letting him run free could backfire on them.
With a heavy fist. Sophie punched the lights out of the man they held hostage before injecting him with
a needle.
“I’m a woman of my word. Since I’ve promised not to kill him, I shall spare his life.” Sophie looked down
at the man at her feet. He would not be waking up until the next morning.
Bending down, Tristan stripped off the man’s clothes and handed them to Sophie. “Put these on! It
would be easier for you to move around in these.”
Since they have gotten a clue of Felix’s location, they intended to head there immediately.
“Okay.”
In a few short minutes, Sophie put on the clothes that were once worn by the guard. There was a hole
on the left side of the chest from the stab earlier, but it could not be seen from afar.
“He’s in the Disciplinary Hall. Mercenaries are guarding that place,” Sophie announced.
“The Disciplinary Hall?”
Sophie had hacked into the system and obtained the topographic map of the military base, so the two
poured over it now.
“With mercenaries guarding the place, coupled with the fact that the place itself is an impregnable
fortress, it would be impossible for us to break in by force,” Sophie concluded upon analyzing the map.
“Let’s go and take a look first!” Tristan suggested. In his mind, the mercenaries were nothing compared
to the two of them.
“Let’s split up and divert their attention. When we passed by that place, I noticed there were a lot of
explosives. I’ll go there and set them off to focus our enemies’ fire there while you go into the
Disciplinary Hall to look for Felix,” Sophie proposed.
Splitting up seemed to be their only way forward.
“That won’t do. I’ll be worried if you go alone.” Tristan objected.
