Chapter 864: Wolf, Snake, and Dog (4/4)

Once this fellow gets back, he might tell his comrades a tale of a narrow escape from death.

Of course, it’s also possible he’ll stop to think about what the hell he came here for…

There were no living people left here anymore.

Irena caught her breath, glanced at her thigh gushing blood, reached down to press the communicator, and sent a final voice message to her brothers in the Burning Corps.

“This is the Skeleton Corps… Our mission is more than complete. Not just their armored train, but the three divisions that tried to stop us are crippled—though we are too.”

“Too bad about the gear; we gave it a thermite treatment, so you won’t have to bother.”

“Oh, and if you run into the 11th Myriad Corps of Bharata fighting a guerrilla war, remember to get them out of here… The battle on this side is over.”

After a brief silence, a flat, emotionless reply came through the crackling static.

Fang Chang: “Roger that. See you in three days.”

“Fuck! Can’t you… let me die with a little more dignity?”

Cursing, Old Na cut the comms and looked toward the western night sky.

There, the pitch-black darkness was being lit up by flickering tracer rounds.

Just as he had expected.

The Legion was thoroughly enraged—they wouldn’t even leave a whole corpse, opting for an artillery execution.

Of course, it wasn’t out of the question that they were scared…

“Hahaha! This life was worth it… Pah! I’ve got another one coming!”

Old Na let out a hearty laugh, sprayed a burst of gunfire into the sky, and then watched the boiling phosphorus fire rain down, swallowing him and the wrecked position behind him.

If the Legion thought fire could destroy them, they were far too naive.

It was only three days.

He would be back!
