Currently, he has decided to camp out the location and wait for when the Blue Crystal gang will ride out to attack Red Dream's farm. Their security will be at its lowest then. It will be prime time for him to attack.
He can choose to infiltrate then or snipe targets from his position. He is leaning towards the latter since if he infiltrates then, one of his teammates might blow his head off.
His metal bones might protect him from ordinary bullets, but sniper rounds are another caliber entirely. It will be extra dangerous if they are using armor piercing rounds like him.
He is not even using special rounds because he knows that some of his targets might be extraordinary like him. He is using it because it is the common procedure nowadays. Everyone knows that anyone can be resistant to bullets.
Besides this, he is supposed to keep his ability to shapeshift a secret on his missions. It is something that will be difficult to do in the current situation. So he is not inclined to infiltrating the facility.
He laid back and relaxed. Wrath told some stories to pass the time, but most of their time was spent in silence.
Fortunately, he had his phone and satellite connection with him, so he wasn't bored. He used his phone to keep himself occupied when he wasn't fiddling with the rifle, testing its aim, or taking practice shots. This way, he was able to bear the four days of solitude without any major issues.
Many vehicles had come and gone in the four days he was waiting. There have also been a lot of activities in the facility. But it was on the fourth day that the facility truly came alive.
It was Wrath that called his attention to it. Apparently, the spirit had better eyesight than him despite the lack of pupils.
He used his binoculars to see what was going on. What he saw made him chuckle.
He said, "It seems someone became impatient."
"They appear to have kicked an hornet's nest."
Wrath was right. The whole compound was noisy. There were the shouts of people and the loud, resounding sound of gunfire. Men and women were rushing about chasing someone or manning battle stages.
The chaos didn't last long. It quieted down after a while. But the activity did not return to its previous state. Men were still moving about. But this time, they were packing themselves into buses.
Wrath commented, "It seems that person didn't manage to escape."
Kelvin shook his head. "There are approximately a hundred men in that building. I would be amazed if they managed to escape."
He complained some more. "I wonder why they do things like this. It is as if they haven't undergone any training at all. They are just idiots."
He knows that most people aren't like him. They don't know to keep quiet before a mission and obey the rules of decorum. He knows that they don't know not to fight before a mission. But it still comes to him as a surprise when he sees someone enter a highly secured facility that they know very little about.
Sure, it is possible to enter and leave that facility with the right ability. Invisibility, intangibility, and camouflaging can achieve it. But anyone who has that kind of ability won't be out here in the dumps slumming it. They will be in the city robbing a bank or something.
Wrath pointed out curiously, "You have mentioned your training several times, but you haven't mentioned where you trained at."
He replied without taking his eyes off the binoculars, "I went to military school. I was raised to be a good killer."
Wrath chuckled, "That last part is obvious. It is obvious that most villains don't have that kind of training. Most people don't have any kind of training to prepare them for their abilities. They mostly plan to waste away in the amateur league where there is no danger. Only those who awaken special abilities decide to become professionals."
"I know that. I'm just saying it is surprising to see such inept behavior."
Wrath shrugged. "Things aren't all that bad. At least that person's mistake has given us the opportunity we need."
He agreed with that. "Yeah. It seems they are moving to attack Red Dream."
The two of them fell into silence as they watched.
Then he said, "I was hoping to assassinate Blue Crystal directly from here, but he doesn't seem to be joining the assault party. I might have to infiltrate after all. That or I attack the assault team on their way back."
Wrath advised, "You should do both. Attack the base in their absence, and if it doesn't turn out well, you can attack the assault team if they return at all."
He nodded and kept his eyes on the facility. The levels of activity he saw continued for several minutes. Then it peaked after 30 minutes when the gates of the three walls were removed.
There was a loud alarm as each gate was opened. Then the convoy of buses passed through each gate. The sound of so many engines roaring scared the birds and other animals in the vicinity.
Finally, the gates were closed, and the base returned to silence. Guards were still manning the towers of each section of the compounds, and everything looked normal.
Wrath whispered in his ear, "How much do you want to bet that this is both a good opportunity and a trap?"
He grinned, "I don't gamble. But if I were a gambling man, then I would say that you are right."
Wrath laughed. "I know I'm right. The boss and his second in command didn't leave the base to lead the attack. They decided to remain in their secure fortress. It is obvious that they are baiting people to make a move on them."
Kelvin was still grinning, but he had put away his binoculars. Instead, he replaced it with his sniper rifle and looked through its telescopic sight.
