Boss, don’t kill me! I was just following orders, it’s not my fault! I can give you anything you want! The last person stammered unclearly.

He was so scared that he nearly wet himself.

The pain from his broken leg made him especially alert.

Right now, all he wanted was to stay alive.

Looking at Waldo dressed in combat gear, his mask revealing only a hint of red light, he didn’t even have the courage to run away.

Waldo approached slowly, with a cold smirk.

What does it matter to me if you were just following orders? All I know is that you were involved in the attack against me, isn’t that enough? Besides, I don’t see any value in you.

The person immediately said, "Waldo, Waldo, I have value! I have supplies in my backpack that you can take, and I also have important information to offer."

However, Waldo didn’t find any of these appealing.

But when the lackey mentioned having valuable information, he became slightly interested.

Oh? Tell me, what kind of information?

The member of the Golden Blade Gang showed a placating smile.

Waldo, if I tell you, can you spare me?

Waldo said coldly, "Are you trying to negotiate with me?"

No, no! I, I’ll tell you now, please don’t be angry, Waldo.

The other person quickly corrected himself and said, "Today, our Golden Blade Gang has a plan to ambush the guard camp. And, we also have the defensive layout of the guard camp."

Waldo furrowed his brow.

Are you guaranteeing that you’re not lying?

Not a single word is false, if there is, let lightning strike me!

Waldo continued to question, "How did a small lackey like you find out?"

Earlier, it was our leader who said that after killing you, we should immediately go to the guard camp to assist the guild leader, then, at that time...

Bang!

Waldo didn’t let him finish and had already retrieved his AK47.

He immediately contacted Delgado.

If there really is an assault on the guard camp today.

And they’ve already obtained the defensive layout of the guard camp.

Then, Delgado is in grave danger now.

Connect quickly!

Beep.

But the call wasn’t going through.

It seems that something has indeed gone wrong at the guard camp.

But Delgado shouldn’t be dead yet.

If he was dead, the call wouldn’t go through, and the system would prompt that the account had been deactivated.

So, there’s only one possibility.

The Golden Blade Gang has already started their move.

Delgado is in a very passive situation now, to the point that he can’t even make a call.

Indeed.

If all the defense schematics inside the guard camp have been leaked to the Golden Blade Gang, then the defense structures the guard camp had been proud of would be useless.

All their vulnerabilities and secret passages would be exposed by the Golden Blade Gang.

He had to hurry over.

Waldo immediately grabbed his gear and took an armored vehicle to the guard camp.

Alanna and Helen saw Waldo hurriedly leave in his armored vehicle without saying a word to them, and they quickly asked in their group chat.

Waldo, what’s happening? Is there something urgent?

Can we help with anything?

Receiving the message, Waldo sent a voice response while driving.

The guard camp seems to have been attacked by the Golden Blade Gang, and I don’t know the details yet. I need to go check it out.

Oh, by the way, you two stay with Chubby at home, be on guard, and quickly recharge the energy shield. The shield’s energy was already low from the previous fight, and the automatic recharge might not be enough for unexpected situations.

After giving his instructions, Waldo closed the chat window and stepped on the gas pedal.

As he had anticipated, the situation at Delgado’s location was as he had expected – they were in a heated battle.

It wasn’t so much a battle as it was a gradual retreat.

That damn traitor Jerom!

Delgado looked disheveled, his eyes bloodshot.

Facing the assault from the Golden Blade Gang, their carefully prepared defenses were utterly useless.

He hadn’t expected that the person he had entrusted with such an important role, Jerom, would suddenly turn against him.

In Jerom’s daily reports to Delgado, he had never suspected a thing.

While Delgado rested with his eyes closed, Jerom suddenly pulled out an M4 rifle and began shooting.

"Watch out, Captain!"

Abby shouted loudly and positioned herself in front of Delgado, taking the bullets meant for him.

When Delgado opened his eyes, Abby had already been shot.

But she didn’t step back.

She moved forward, blocking Jerom’s gunfire.

This selfless act bought Delgado some time.

He quickly drew the handgun he usually kept at his waist and accurately shot Jerom in the forehead.

Jerom was instantly killed.

But by then, Abby had already passed away.

Delgado felt a deep sorrow in his heart.

Two of his most capable soldiers, one died at his own hands, and the other died for him.

But he didn’t even have time to mourn. Soon, the sound of artillery came from outside the guard camp.

The soldiers from the Golden Blade Gang were attacking relentlessly, bullets raining down like they were free.

Duncan knew that they had to give it their all, no holding back.

If they could take the guard camp, all these sacrifices would be worth it.

Duncan watched as Delgado stepped onto the guard camp’s defensive line, opening a system window.

Indeed, Jerom had become like Leonard – logged out.

Jerom, that worthless piece of trash, had taken action, but he had failed. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Instead, he had gotten himself killed.

A worthless traitor, truly worthless!

Duncan saw the rifle in Delgado’s hand and recognized it as Jerom’s M4.

But luckily, Jerom wasn’t entirely useless. At least, he provided the defensive layout of the guard camp.

Duncan shouted loudly, "Delgado, surrender now! You’re surrounded, there’s no way out for you! And if you’re waiting for Waldo, I regret to inform you that Waldo has already been taken care of by my people. Don’t hold onto false hopes."

Delgado smirked upon hearing this. Duncan was indeed cunning. He had managed to intercept Waldo as well. It seemed he could only count on his own luck now.

"Guard camp soldiers, listen to my command, defend with all your might!" Duncan watched as the guard camp responded, retaliating with artillery fire – just as he had anticipated.

He touched the ring on his finger and said calmly, "First squad, launch an ambush from the left side secret door of the guard camp. Third squad, provide covering fire for the first squad. Fourth squad, take mortars and destroy the connections between guard camp strongholds. Fifth squad..."

Using the defensive layout provided by Jerom, Duncan meticulously arranged the operations. Once everything was in place, a victorious smile appeared on his lips.

There was no way he could lose this battle. After all, the advantage was firmly on the side of the Golden Blade Gang.

The situation in the guard camp had become extremely dire. They were forced into a difficult defensive position. Over time, they were becoming like lambs to the slaughter.

The Golden Blade Gang’s assault quickly took effect, and the battalion commanders of the guard camp were sending urgent distress messages.

Clifford: "Captain, we can’t hold on much longer on the right flank! Our defensive devices have all been countered by their specialized equipment!"

Sapphire: "Captain, things are getting critical on my end too!"

On the frontlines where Delgado was located, the battle was the most intense. They were fighting for their lives, blocking the advance of the Golden Blade Gang.

Guard camp soldiers armed with machine guns fell, only to be replaced by the next in line. Frontline riflemen fell, and another soldier would immediately take up the rifle and continue firing.

If only their defensive supplies could work to their maximum potential, they wouldn’t be in such a passive situation. At this moment, Delgado couldn’t help but wish he could pull Jerom out and punish him severely. Each guard camp soldier falling in front of him had once been Jerom’s comrade. How could he betray them like this?

The Golden Blade Gang’s onslaught grew fiercer and fiercer. The account of Captain Clifford and Second Lieutenant Sapphire turned gray – it seemed the defenses on the left and right flanks had been breached.

Only this position remained, struggling to hold on.

Delgado felt a bitter taste in his mouth. It seemed that this time, he was really going to die here because of the traitor. Was this fate?

He chuckled wryly. Just then, there was a sudden disturbance from behind the Golden Blade Gang’s lines.

"Enemy attack!"

"Guild Leader, watch out!"

"It’s Waldo, Waldo’s not dead!"

Waldo arrived just in time, as the guard camp’s fate hung in the balance. He drove an armored vehicle, unleashing the firepower of its mounted cannons and blasting a gap in the rear of the Golden Blade Gang’s formation. He and West charged into the midst of the Golden Blade Gang members.

With one energy pulse sword each, they seemed to activate superhuman mode, forcing the Golden Blade Gang to retreat.

"Stop him, stop him!"

"Everyone, be careful, don’t let Waldo get close!"

"Open fire, engage from a distance!"

"Damn, how does this robot have a small energy shield like that?"

The Golden Blade Gang swiftly launched a counterattack. West activated an energy barrier, shielding Waldo as he unleashed a hail of grenades. Waldo held three or five grenades, pulling the pins with a few fingers, and threw them directly into the densest clusters of Golden Blade Gang members.

Instantly, several were killed in the explosion.

Duncan looked at Waldo, who was advancing relentlessly, with an unsightly expression.

Waldo’s presence here indicated that the many people he had sent to confront them had ultimately failed. But right now, he didn’t have the time to think about that.

He aimed his rocket launcher at Waldo, not sparing any rockets, and shouted, "Fire the rockets, don’t hold back, give him everything you’ve got!"

"Yes!"

His subordinates responded, switching their portable rocket launchers from aiming at the guard camp to targeting Waldo.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

"Watch out!"

Waldo’s sharp eyes spotted several rockets being fired towards them.

West increased the power output of his energy shield.

"Understood, Master."

After the barrage of rockets, West’s energy shield was depleted and unable to activate.

He pulled out his AK47 and began suppressing with firepower while running.

Even the members of the Golden Blade Gang who took cover found themselves ineffective. Despite their shelter, they were gradually overwhelmed.

The situation at the forefront of the guard camp, where Delgado was located, was the most brutal.

It was a battle for survival, blocking the advance of the Golden Blade Gang with their lives.

The guard camp soldiers fought valiantly, even though some were struck down by bullets. They bought enough time for their comrades to reach the forefront of the Golden Blade Gang’s lines.

For those that could be resolved with guns, both sides engaged in a shootout.

For those engaging in close combat, it was a matter of who could strike first.

The guard camp soldiers, fearless in the face of death, managed to suppress the better-equipped members of the Golden Blade Gang as they charged into their ranks.

Waldo’s aggressive assault greatly reduced the pressure on them.

Otherwise, even in close quarters combat, it would be hard for them to gain the upper hand.

The Golden Blade Gang, caught between enemies on both sides, went from having an absolute advantage to teetering on the edge of a cliff.

A slight mistake could lead to their complete defeat.

"Guild Leader, you should retreat first, we’ll hold them off!"

"Yes, Guild Leader, we can’t afford to face them head-on right now!"

"Guild Leader, let’s fall back!"

The pleas of the Golden Blade Gang members fell on deaf ears, and even earned them harsh reprimands from Duncan, causing him to furrow his brow deeply.

Mark, the Vice Guild Leader of the Golden Blade Gang, looked at Duncan’s trusted allies.

"Take the Guild Leader away, escort him to safety!"

"Understood!" The trusted allies responded.

Duncan’s arms were forcibly seized, and he angrily shouted, "I dare anyone to touch me?! I’m the Guild Leader of the Golden Blade Gang, you think you can betray me?"

His allies didn’t pause, they moved even more swiftly.

"Guild Leader, we apologize for any inconvenience."

With that, they forcefully dragged Duncan onto a vehicle and drove him away.

Seeing this, the guard camp soldiers opened fire in an attempt to intercept.

However, the members of the Golden Blade Gang left behind returned fire.

Mark shot down a guard camp soldier and bellowed, "Golden Blade Gang, attack! Killing one is worth it, killing two is even more profitable. Charge!"

With that, he engaged in battle with the guard camp soldiers.
