30 kilometers south of the East Guotuo Royal Capital.
Boom.
A loud noise erupted, followed by a piercing scream.
The scream came from within a large basin, surrounded by a few low mountains.
Bang, bang, bang...
The dull sound of gunshots echoed around the basin. It was the distinctive sound of sniper rifles, as seven snipers hidden around the basin and on nearby peaks rained down firepower below.
"Hold on, we can't retreat, or we'll all die."
"Leader, Daer is dead."
"What?"
Shouting and roaring echoed from below the basin.
Inside the basin, dozens of Contractors were besieging a humanoid creature with glowing red skin. This creature was unusually fierce. Despite being surrounded by dozens, it was not at a disadvantage and seemed ready to break through the crowd at any moment.
