Chapter 1051 - Ambush Attack!

"P1 in position." Lee An announced through the secured team chat channel.

"P2 in position too. Get ready for your part." Bin Yong replied, his eyes on a group of Atrocity Mafia demons on the second floor of a derelict building. All of them seemed to be resting and enjoying their off duty status as they had just switched their shift with another group of demon guards who had barely left to patrol around the area.

The Pandawans had been watching this particular guardhouse movement for a short period of time after their information had been verified from one of the goons they extracted information from. Before this, they had managed to subdue a series of small parties of Atrocity Mafia Demons but with quite a bit of difficulty.

They noticed that no matter how they tried to cover themselves up with stealth, they still managed to catch onto their presence. (Xiong Da was unhappy he was being blamed for the cause of it all.) But eventually, the Pandawans found out that they were just that perceptive so they had regrouped and decided to hit one of the main guardhouses which Captain Hei had pointed to them previously. This was also because they hoped that the small groups they hit would not be noticed.

After quietly subduing a guard on duty at the side gates of the opposite building across the guard house by using Jia Le’s magical kunais, Bin Yong’s team tried their best to enter it without attracting too much attention. Jia Le, Shi Zuo, Xue Ping who were in Bin Yong’s team took their positions behind the second floor windows and readied their guns.

"Once Bin Yong’s group start, the other guards who had just departed for their guard route should return. Let’s make sure they won’t be able to interfere." Lee An reiterated their responsibilities as they were the primary strike team of the two groups.

With two heavy hitters such as Xiong Da and Luo Bo in the group, his group would be engaging the patrol that had left the guardhouse a few moments ago. The flashy attack from Bin Yong’s team would be the distraction to ensure that there would be no other teams reinforcing the recently disembarked patrol when Lee An’s group ambushed them.

"Let’s start!" Bin Yong pulled the pin of a grenade and threw it towards the window of the other building. As the metal mini pineapple flew into the room, one of the off duty Atrocity guards instinctively grabbed it since it was flying towards him. He had no idea what it was even though it clearly felt ominously dangerous. Despite his quick reaction to pick it up, that iron pineapple in his hand was already ticking down.

The primer on the grenade had already caused the delayed chemical fuse to move, causing it to ignite the charge within the frag grenade. As it exploded, fragments of metal balls burst out of it lining the off duty Mafia guard with holes in his body. However, he wasn’t the only victim. Some nearby guards had approached him to get a better look at what exactly their companion had caught, resulting in them also being hurt by the explosion.

The blast was deafening enough for the recently departed patrol to turn their heads. They saw the smoke coming out of the second floor of their guardhouse, which prompted their leader to move back to the base to check the situation out. It wasn’t until he saw a few more metal canisters being lobbed into the guardhouse from the opposite building that he ordered the rest of his team to follow after him.

Those metal canisters had looked as if they were going to fall to the ground but somehow they suddenly started to speed up via a magical propulsion method in midair. They quickly rocketed into the second and third floor of the guardhouse resulting in even more explosions. To make matters worse, the on duty Atrocity guards were so caught up by the first explosion with their perception focused on the higher floors that they did not realise that a few of these canister projectiles were flying into them.

Only the on duty guard captain recognised the threat, the rest barely had time to bring their shields up. As soon as he caught a glimpse of these projectiles, he quickly went ahead to intercept one by attempting to kick it away.

However, that was the worst decision one could make as the canister exploded right when it impacted right beneath his leg, causing him to lose his entire right calf. The guard immediately fell to the ground screaming in pain as the loss of blood was immense right from the get go. The medic of the group tried to cast some healing magic but it would take some time to chant.

In the meantime, his other comrades tried to stop the bleeding by tearing their shirts and using it as a tourniquet to stop the blood from gushing out while some tried to cover the exposed femur by pushing their stained cloth shirts onto it. Simultaneously, a few of the guards shifted their position forward with heavy shields at the front to block any more attacks.

"So this is how a fully armed guard patrol looks like. They seem to have a mix of healers and defenders. Despite their rough look, they seem to be very organised." Lee An commented as he continued to observe the situation. It was very different from the small parties they killed initially. That opening volley had given the Pandawan primary strike team an insight into their makeup of groups, allowing them to learn that even a melee oriented organisation had balanced attack teams.

He realised that those canisters had made a loud commotion which had lost them the chance for an ambush but with the Pandarens already actively fighting in the district, the guard had already been vigilant.

Meanwhile, Bin Yong and the others who had used the canisters were satisfied with the last minute addition to their arsenal found in the safehouse. The rocket propelled grenades, although a cheaper version, were courtesy of Jin’s Science Department.

The surprising part was that Kiva had created them as an attempt to curry favour with Ayse. Its intended use had been to save costs for the upcoming war against the Demon Rats in the Farming World, but Kraft who often visited the lady orc had coincidentally seen it and quickly incorporated it into ’his’ raid. (Jin rolled his eyes whenever Kraft said that this was his raid.)

In order to create these makeshift RPG canisters, Kiva had first filled a metal can full of explosive powder and added a snippet of booster rocket inscription charm at the back of it. Of course, there had been many revisions until it resulted in the current version which allowed to stack and screw the canisters together for increased mobility or increased explosive power of the RPG canister.

This ingenuity allowed Jin to earn quite a fair bit of profit because it was more or less impossible to recreate this particular booster rocket inscription charm except for Octofussy, Jin’s legendary charm inscriber.

But without too much hesitation, Lee An signalled Xiong Da to move forth and intercept the group while Bin Yong and his group continued to throw more RPG canisters before running away deeper into the building they were residing.
