Chapter 361
After listening to Viktor and Sora’s explanation, Matthew had a basic understanding of the situation . He was on the right track and now he even had allies that he could join with as they storm the enemy base . When he voiced his desire to help, Sora told him he should talk to the leader . Matthew obviously knew who was talking about .
While walking Matthew suddenly asked, "What’s that sll?" Viktor started slling his armpit and then shook his head . Sora, on the other hand, asked, "What sll are you talking about?"
"I’m not sure, but it slls like sulfur with so scent of strawberry . I really can’t tell, it’s just a weird sll overall . "
"Oh, you’re slling my new concoction . Good thing you told in advance . " Sora took out a small vial then plugged it, making the sll a bit faint . "It must’ve opened when I was running away from you . Good thing you noticed, If you didn’t notice, you and Viktor might have died . "
Hearing that Matthew took so distance from Sora, while Viktor started attacking Sora while shouting, "You mad Scientist!"
. . .
The three of them walked for a bit until they finally saw a group of people having so sort of eting . In the middle of that group was a person with a prosthetic leg, this was none other than Alex’s father and the forr leader of a renown rcenary squad, Carlo Samarita .
When Carlo noticed the newcor he smiled . "Oh, Matthew it has been so ti since I last saw you . . . It seems that you’ve improved quite a bit . So, may I ask what you’re doing here?" Even though Carlo was showing a friendly smile, was talking nicely, while also emitting a heavy pressure that threatened Matthew .
Still, as soone who has been in so rough patches the past year, Matthew was now a bit more experienced in such matters and wasn’t as affected as he used to be . He responded to Carlo by showing a smile and saying, "I’m here with the sa reason as you . I want to save Alex, so if you need an extra hand I’m willing to help . "
When Carlo heard Matthew’s proposal he looked at the other party with a bit of a frown on his face, and then after a second or two Carlo’s smile returned as he nodded his head . "Sure the more helping hands the better . Good thing you arrived now since we are about to storm the secret base of the legendary Shadow rcenaries . Here’s my plan . "
Carlo then told Matthew what he and the others planned to do . It was a very simple and direct plan, there wasn’t too much to do . One can even argue if you could still call that a plan . Though straight and simple was sothing Matthew ca to like nowadays .
"Nice and simple, I like it . Of course, I’ll be part of the infiltration group, right?" After hearing the plan, Matthew voiced out his opinion .
"Truthfully I want you to be part of the distraction group, knowing your capabilities I think you’re a better fit for that, than going in . " Hearing Carlo’s response made Matthew frown .
"Are you looking down on ? You might think my level is the sa as before, but I’ve improved greatly since the last ti you saw . Not that I’m doubting your decisions, but I think I would be a better fit to be a part of the team that’s going inside . " As Matthew said his piece, the atmosphere suddenly felt a bit hostile . Seeing the boy was glaring at him made Carlo sigh .
’Still such a kid . ’
"I understand that you’ve improved Matthew, I could tell at one glance that you are no longer the greenhorn that you were before, but I still believe that with your abilities, you’ll prove more useful as part of the distraction . "
Hearing that Carlo was still insisting that he should stay out and be a distraction made Matthew even more irritated . Leo who was sleeping on top of Matthew’s backpack jumped away in fright . He and everyone else felt it, Matthew’s killing intent . The mont he emitted such a thing, all of the squad mbers weapons were pointed at Matthew, all except Carlo who was still looking at the boy calmly .
"I know you used to be the leader of that fad rcenary group, but now your a washup has been . Even your squad isn’t up to the sa standard that it used to have . So how can soone like you tell if I’m good to go or not? You’re telling that you don’t question my skill, but you place in such an insignificant position? I-"
Before Matthew could finish what he was about to say, Carlo suddenly shouted at him .
"Shut the f*ck up you stupid brat! I’ve had it up to here with your arrogance . I’m about to go in and save my son, who has been captured for over a year . I’m not about to waste this chance that I got because of so prideful overzealous brat, that doesn’t even understand anything! You do understand I told you that you’re a better fit for distraction than infiltration, I said that because it’s the truth . Unlike Dan who is a close-quarters combat specialist, and Niel who can fight in all ranges, you are soone who is a better fit for one against many in an open field . In a tight narrow space, that’s inside the enemy base, your way of fighting isn’t going to hack it! So do you understand, why I told you that you aren’t the best choice to go inside? If not then you don’t need to follow us, if you ss up the plan I will not hesitate to kill you!"
When Carlo got to that part of his speech, he took out his gun and pointed it at Matthew’s head . At this point, the tension between the two was at an all-ti high .
"My son and his friends’ lives are at stake! So either follow my orders or get the f*ck out of here!"
