Into villa 23, they went.
[Alpha in position!]
[Beta team securing the west end.]
[Omega through the gardens.]
[Gamma in position.]
? "Clear."
Snake tapped his ears, and the spy gadget sticking from the ear corner of his inner suit displayed a single lense.
It appeared before his left eye.
Zoom!
Snake swept his eyes vigilantly, seeing no objects picked up from the heat vision lense.
Good...
No one in sight. Yet, he still didn't move from the bushes, listening to the other teams report their status.
So far, only 2 guards had been spotted patrolling around the estate.
They had flown drones severally over the past few days and weeks. So they had already mastered the patterns in which these guards patrolled.
For today's operation, their boss was also among them. He made all main instructions.
[All units move to the main building as planned.]
Copy that.
They might have entered the villa from all directions. But they were headed for the same place... The main building.
It's good.
Snake ran with his hands flaring at the back, with 2 special daggers buried under his sleeves.
With time ticking, his ears were sharp, his speed fast, and his face only had a single lens, he might miss something since he was constantly throwing his left eye in all directions.
In no time, 7 minutes flew by.
Snake plunged forward, rolling on the ground and hiding behind a pillar.
There were others around him. He only felt their presence. But for others, he had gotten glimpses of their movements.
Snake tapped the side of his ears again, switching that pair of lense to night vision mode. With night vision mode, he should be able to make out the attires of those he spotted.
He knew they were definitely his men and comrades. But one can never be too sure.
He also began communicating with their leader and the other team leaders, verifying their positions for confirmation.
Night Whisperer was also the same. He and his team had arrived and were hiding not too far away from Snake's.
.
All clear!!!
This time, they still planned to infiltrate the scene from the same window or plan to use the same path.
One might think it wise to enter the main building through another window since there is a possibility that the enemy might have increased security measures within the structure around these parts.
Indeed, using another path is a worse choice because for one, they weren't too certain about the overall infrastructure within the main building.
It's true that thanks to Alice's many videos, they could map out and picture what was where, as well as how many pillars, rooms, and hallways exist. But who is to be certain that they didn't make a mistake?
They haven't physically moved there. So perhaps there are several hidden maze walls that come out at night.
Maybe hidden doors on the walls exist to lead others away from the main path.
After experiencing what they did that last time, they knew these hallways were meant to keep enemies in a loop till they got caught.
Their fear was that if they used another path, they might face even more implications than the path they already understood. So why risk it?
They thoroughly understood the current path they would be taking, with those by the computer having simulations, ready to give all directions needed.
[Into the hallway, keep straight. After taking the left bend, reach the fork and choose right.]
The information was as clear as day as Snake carefully dived through the window, pointing his clenched fist in various directions.
There were darts on his risk that would plunge deadly weapons, as fast as bullets unto any who dared to attack him.
.
No one...
Snake narrowed his eyes, feeling the hallway desolate.
Of course, with the number of staff within the Tian estate, of course it will be desolate.
Night Whisperer's team also entered next.
Those already inside stayed on watch, scanning the environment for any Tian guards. Some pointed their weapons, only held blades, and some only searched the hallways even more.
A strange wind blew, and the leader had an ominous thought.
"Wait! Don't take an inch further!"
Eh?
Everyone froze, watching their leader reach the front. He had a high-tech spray. And with a fierce but silent pump, he revealed a ghastly sight that made the color from their faces drain.
Lasers!!!!
Gulp.~
The gang swallowed hard, starting at the uncountable beams of thin green rays shooting out in all directions.
These were no doubt trigger lasers!
Last time they were here, these lasers weren't out on, maybe because these Tians weren't expecting anyone to break in.
However, since they infiltrated the scene last time, it looks like they had decided to turn on all security features during this time.
No one knows what will truly happen after the lasers get triggered.
Maybe a massive alarm sound will echo out across the entire estate, or perhaps it will trigger an even more devastating mechanism. So they dared not take this lightly.
Luckily, they had skin-tight clothes on.
The group immediately came back to their senses, placing their weapons back in place.
Heh!
They scoffed at the intricate green patterns shooting out.
Who were they? Killers from the darknet. They have been paid for such jobs, even going as far as infiltrating some well-guarded places to steal documents.
Snake danced across the scene, bending low, jumping, sliding, hopping on one leg, twirling, and leaning back deeply when passing underneath several deadly beams.
And soon, he and many others made it to the other side.
It took over 7 and a half minutes... And this only showed just how tightly placed these beams were.
Even Snake had to admit the laser beam security design was quite a deadly one.
At some point, the person in front of him almost fell, triggering the system. Everyone's pupils rapidly dilated.
Time seemed frozen as they inwardly screamed in horror.
NO!!!
