Fabian led the elite police officers of Taguig City Police Station and Makati City Police Station to the location that was believed to be Diego's hideout. Khalon was also with them and he was currently disguised as one of the police officers. However, he looked very conspicuous because of his intimidating height and muscular body.
At this moment, all the police officers were wearing bulletproof armor and they were each holding a rifle in their hands.
Everyone's faces were solemn as they grew closer to their destination.
"Sir Fabian, how far are we from the location?" The captain of the Makati City Police Station, Joshua Gabayan, asked over the walkie-talkie.
"We are still two kilometers away from the mansion. Sir Joshua, please tell your men to be ready." Fabian answered.
"Roger that."
Fabian felt that the raid this time wouldn't go easy even though Khalon was with them. His instincts were telling him that there were dangers up ahead.
Suddenly, he felt a large hand patting his shoulder. "Sir Khalon?" He stared at Khalon in surprise.
"There are people laying an ambush for us. Tell everyone to stop!" Khalon muttered in a stern voice. Although he didn't have advanced weapons in his mechanical body, his eyes were equipped with thermal sensors and he could see that there were dozens of people 500 meters from them.
"What?!" Fabian's heart turned cold upon hearing his words. He then shouted on the walkie-talkie. "Everyone, stop your vehicles! There is an ambush ahead of us!"
All the police cars stopped when they heard his words. The police officers became alert and they immediately went out of their vehicles.
Fabian and Joshua led their men into the woods. They were in Maragondon, a rural town in Cavite. This place was filled with dense forests and vast lands intended for agriculture.
According to their information, Diego's hideout was in a discreet mansion here in Maragondon.
"Sir Fabian, can you tell us what's going on?" Joshua stared at Fabian with his eyebrows furrowed.
Fabian's face was serious as he replied. "My people discovered an ambush up ahead. If we had driven straight, we would fall into their trap. Let's move carefully. Diego's men might be hidden in this forest."
Joshua's frown deepened upon hearing this. He then commanded his men to stay alert.
Fabian was staring at Khalon as they moved slowly in the woods. He didn't doubt his words at all.
Suddenly, Khalon raised his hand. It was a signal for the team to stop moving. He raised his rifle and took three shots. His weapon was equipped with a silencer so only faint whistling sounds could be heard after he pulled the trigger.
"Contacts, 12 o'clock." Khalon muttered as he aimed his rifle in another direction. He then fired his weapon a couple of times and shifted his aim to another direction.
The other police officers were stunned by his actions, but when they walked a few meters ahead, they spotted a person with a bullet wound on his forehead.
"Fourteen enemies eliminated." Khalon muttered as he reloaded his weapon.
At this moment, the other police officers were already staring at him in awe. Even Joshua who was confident about his marksmanship was starting to admire Khalon.
Fabian was no longer worried about the raid when he saw Khalon displaying his skills, but he also felt afraid of him. The shooting skill he showed was beyond the realm of normal police officers. He also believed that Khalon was more skilled than the elites in the army.
Under Khalon's fearsome marksmanship, the dozens of people who were lying in ambush were soon killed. They weren't even able to fight back and all of them were killed silently.
"These people are so relaxed. They didn't even notice our presence." Fabian muttered as he checked the body of one of the dead thugs. These men had communicators on them, but they all died before they could even report what was happening.
"They all died with one shot to their head. Just who is that person under Fabian?" Joshua muttered in shock while inspecting the dead men.
Not long later, they arrived in front of a walled mansion. After a quick observation, they discovered that there were six machinegun-mounted vehicles and more than thirty men armed with automatic rifles waiting for them inside the walls.
"They are on alert. It seems like they have discovered something. I need five of the best shooters to help me kill those guys behind the machine guns." Khalon commanded all of a sudden.
No one protested when they heard his words. He had already proven himself along the way and all the police officers both admired and feared him. Even Fabian and Joshua felt the same.
Fabian, Joshua, and three more police officers took the initiative.
Khalon told them their targets. "Hold your fire. Wait for my signal. The rest of you, shoot those armed men after my signal."
"Fire!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The six men standing behind the machine guns fell one after another. The other police officers also pulled their trigger as they aimed towards the armed thugs.
"The police are here! Take cover!"
"I don't see them! Where are they?!"
"Ah!!! My leg! I'm shot! Help me!"
Diego's subordinates panicked under the dense barrage of bullets fired at them.
In just less than a minute, more than ten men fell into pools of blood. The others managed to hide behind a solid object, but most of them were injured.
"Cover me." Khalon said over the radio as he jumped over the wall.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The thugs immediately spotted him and wildly sprayed their bullets in his direction.
Khalon nimbly rolled on the ground and jumped behind an old mango tree.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Fire! Don't let those thugs shoot Sir Khalon!" Fabian shouted.
The police officers aimed their rifles and shot the thugs who were firing at Khalon.
More and more thugs were killed from the crossfire and a few unlucky police officers were also hit, but their life weren't in danger.
