Aileen and her squad entered the Vermillion's gang headquarters following Katherina's order.
But when they descended to the second underground floor, a rain of arrows surged towards them.
"Careful!" Aileen shouted and brandished her rapier quickly. She had been wary of ambushes, so she easily deflected the first wave of arrows.
But before she could sigh in relief, tens of enemies surged out from the surroundings and charged toward them.
The trap set up by the Vermillion gang had been activated.
Suddenly, Aileen's expression turned grave.
"Form a circle!" She ordered. "Protect each other and be careful of the arrows!"
"Roger!"
One second later, the two groups clashed.
The Vermillion Gang's men charged toward Aileen's squad in waves. Enemy after enemy surged out of the surroundings and charged toward them without regard for their lives.
