"by the way what is the situation outside, is this the only City under attack?
Krom asked Tom on the way. while in this city he had no way to know about what was happening in the outside world. even when taking to the general he did not have time to do so
"it is not any good from here. around 70% cities of the whole world were attacked by these monsters from them 60% have been completely destroyed by them and the all humans have also been killed"
Krom could see the sadness and anger on everyone faces. he was also very angry but knew that he was not powerful enough to make any difference. after pausing for a little Tom continued
"of the remaining, 30% cities are facing situations like this, where people are captured. as for the remaining they also had same situation like this but the government there bombarded those cities to wipe out the monsters along with the humans who were captured there "
this news was even more shocking to Krom, he could not think that there would be people who will kill their own to stop the enemies
"even though it looks inhuman, but they might have made the right choice to stop the further spread of these creatures and save the lives that they still could"
Tom said again. in his heart he also felt that it was wrong but sometime right decisions had to be made.
"do not be so sad everyone, for now we must focus on our task at hand. if we are successfully then we will be the first ones to claim a city back from the monsters and save the people captured by them. even though others also tried but our chances are much higher than them due to a specific person"
Jimmy said while trying to lift up everyone mood. while saying the last words he looked at krom implying that the specific person was Krom.
"yes, Jimmy is right. we will definitely complete our missions and save everyone this time"
everyone cast aside there sadness and anger fire the time being and focused on doing they best so as the same incidents do not repeat again
after some more time the team was now standing on the small hole through which krom communicated to the people before.
"Hello can anyone hear me ?"
Krom said while looking down through the hole. soon he was answered by the same voice which answer his the time before .
"yes we can hear you"
"ok according to what I time earlier, I'm an here along with the military to save you guys. "
"really! will we be finally able to escape from here? you agree not telling a lie right"
along with the voice which answered back other people also started talking, they could not believe that they would be leave the place alive
"everyone please calm down. we have not yet started to operation yet, for now i am here to tell you that we will start it in an hour or so. during this time I want you to pass the information to everyone who is trapped"
calming everyone down krom went on to explain how they were going to rescue them.
"after one hour we will enter the drainage pipes through one of the there holes. we will then hello you ask escape though the already decided route through the pipelines. i want you to tell this to everyone and ask them to help us during the whole time, if they co-operate only then will we be able to save most people "
"do not worry about that, there will not be any problem for us to make the information reach everyone. we will wait until you arrive to save us"
"yes please also tell them that we will not help anyone who tries to affect the order of evacuation and our everyones lives in danger for their own same
Krom was still worried that when they enter the pipelines to save them, people will try to fight for evacuations earlier than other. since there was thousand of people trapped it was difficult to manage them, the problem increase even more when they were afraid and put their survival ahead and our other lives in danger
"yes we understand that "
getting confirmation the team decided to move from there. they decided to stay at place which was equidistant from all three entrances, so that they would take less time to reach the entrance no matter which one they had to go to. it did not take much time and now all they had to wait.
{ boom }
the ending of the hour was marked with a loud bang. following the sound of blast a flare was also seen in the sky, it was for krom's team so that they would know the exact location of the battle and choose their own place of Operation without much problem
"ok the South-eat enterance is the furthest from the battle. let's go there and follow 2nd escape route for evacuation"
following Tom order the team started to make their way to the south-east entrance to drainage as fast as they could.
it took them 10 minutes to arrive at the destination. not they were a little further from the enterance and were planning on how to deal with 3 daph warriors and many other daphs which were guarding it.
"according to the info these red coloured ones should be stronger, we will divide only 3 two men team and go around to different location from where we can clearly take them out in 1 shot each at same time. after that it should not be any problem to feel with weaker ones. krom, your stay back till we deal with them"
explaining this, Tom took Krom in his 2 men team and let other 4 decide on their own.
they decided to shoot exactly after 5 minutes.
everyone got into their places and just as 5 minutes passed three gunshot rang and 3 daph warriors feel dead with their crystals being shattered bullets.
the team was able to reach here undetected due to making their scents, but as soon the guns were fired all the daph found their location and started to run towards them as wild animals as they were, but it did but take much efforts for then to be cleaned as well.
cleaning them the team now proceeded towards the enterance
