A building in Moskovskaya, Balashikha, Russia

The team had left the motel in Greshskaya to save Team Leader Kim Jin-joong and arrived at a place lined with shabby buildings in Moskovskaya, Balashikha 30 minutes later. The industrial complex in Moskovskaya had once been one of Russia’s economic zones but now was devastated and abandoned, with only shabby old buildings left. They were a perfect hideout for criminals.

“It looks like he is on the fourth floor of that building.” Chief Ahn Ki-cheol, who had been carefully watching the blue dot on the map of the smartphone screen, pointed to a particularly shabby four-story building.

“Let’s check one last time and move in.”

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong got off the passenger seat, opened a small case, and took out a drone that was the size of an adult’s hand. It was a mini spider drone smaller than a regular spider drone used by the army battalions. However, it was the drone used by the National Intelligence Service, which was not shorter than the regular size one. After a while, the mini spider drone flew over the building with a quiet flying noise. The camera mounted at the bottom of the drone began to scan the inside, moving around the building in inverter mode and infrared mode.

After the drone went around the building, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong, who was using a controller to control the drone, switched to the repeat autonomous flight mode. Then, the mini spider drone automatically and continuously roamed the outside of the building and projected images on the left side of the shield glasses of all three of them.

“Everybody can see the video well?”

“There is nothing wrong.”

“It’s coming out well.”

At the question of Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong, Chiefs Park Won-ho and Ahn Ki-cheol answered at the same time.

“Then I will move first.”

Chief Ahn Ki-cheol who held a CS14, an anti-personnel sniper laser rifle, nodded his head to Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong. He gave Chief Park Won-ho a tap on the shoulder and ran toward the building across the street.

“Shall we go too?”

“Yes.”

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho, who were more fully armed than regular soldiers with bulletproof helmets, tactical bulletproof vests, and various equipment, carefully approached the shabby four-story building. And when they were about to enter the building, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong who was in the forefront raised his right fist as a sign to stop.

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong detected several red lines across the entrance with his shield glasses. It seemed that some laser detectors were installed to prevent invaders.

-Check the infrared laser detectors at the entrance of the building 40 meters ahead!

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong sent a message to Chief Park Won-ho with brain waves.

-I confirmed, sir.

-It looks like there will be some security cameras. From here, let’s move using the TCS mode.

-Yes sir.

At the press of a button, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho became invisible. The two reached the entrance carefully, crossed the infrared laser detector lines, and managed to enter the building. And the two people who knew the entire structure of the building thanks to the scanned information of the mini spider drone started to search inside using inverter mode and infrared vision mode, avoiding the surveillance cameras. On the first floor, no life was found in infrared. It was early morning, so everyone seemed to be sleeping except the security guards.

-This is C! I found life forms, seem to be humans on the second floor! Currently moving towards the stairs on the first floor! Over!

Communication came from Chief Ahn Ki-cheol, who was watching with a high-magnification optical scope from the roof of the opposite building. Before they had arrived here, they had assigned the names; Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong as A, Chief Park Won-ho as B, and Chief Ahn Ki-cheol as C.

-This is A and B. All clear!

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho’s TCS mode had expired. They hid on each side of the staircase. After a while, two Scorpion agents, speaking in English, came down the stairs with their personal guns.

-This is A, let’s attack at the same time when they get down the stairs. Over!

-This is B. Roger that.

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho took out their CS5. CS5 was quieter than a regular rifle. They shot laser beams at the Scorpion agents who came down the stairs.

Pew! Pew!

There was a laser sound similar to a muffled gun on a regular pistol. Small holes were made at the back of the heads of the two men who just came down the stairs. They fell right away without fanfare. Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong quickly approached the two fallen men and tried to collect their fingerprints, but all the fingerprints were worn out. So, he took the pictures of the pupils of the two men with the camera he had brought.

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong had been ordered by the Director of Foreign Intelligence to collect all available information about these unknowns.

-This is C! The second floor is all clear. Over.

-This A and B. Copy that.

Chief Ahn Ki-cheol continued to send communications about the follow-up situation through the scope. Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho went up to the second floor and began to search separately. However, there were no more Scorpion agents. Accordingly, they moved to the central staircase to go up to the third floor.

-This is C! Many people are spotted on the third floor! A total of fifteen. Ten seem to be sleeping! And two are at 9 o’clock and the other three are at 6 o’clock at the staircase! Over.

-This is A. Roger that.

-This is B. Can you see the team leader yet?

-This is C, not yet confirmed, over.

-This is B. Roger.

As they confirmed where the enemies were, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho moved their gazes. They could see some figures with their thermal imaging cameras.

-This is A. After changing the battery of the control device, we will move to the third floor using TCS mode. B will take the two at 9 o’clock, I will take the three at 6 o’clock. C, support us. Over.

– This is B. Copy that.

-This is C. Copy that.

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho switched to TCS mode. They got up the stairs quickly and quietly. Soon, a quiet laser sound rang on the third floor. It was not a loud sound, but since the third floor was too quiet, it sounded loud.

Chief Park Won-ho fired laser beams to the back of the heads of two Scorpion agents in a row. Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong also quickly approached three agents in TCS mode and shot laser beams, killing them quietly.

-This is B. Clear. Over.

-This is A. Clear. Over.

The moment Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong reported through the radio, all the lights turned on and an alarm sounded in the whole building. Then, the 10 Scorpion agents who were sleeping quickly recognized the current situation and looked around with each of them holding a personal gun.

Eeeoooeeeooo! Eeeoooeeeooo! Eeeoooeeeooo!

Unfortunately, when one of the Scorpion agents had fallen after being shot by the laser of Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong, his gun dropped on the floor and hit the infrared laser detector next to him. It was so unfortunate. Also, the TCS mode expired, so Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho had to hide in the surrounding cover.

“Intruder!”

Each of the Scorpion agents wore sunglasses and went into search mode, scanning every place. At this moment, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho were hiding at each side of the main stairway.

-This is A. From now on, we will switch to the standard tactics! C supports by sniping. We will start to overpower from the third floor.

-This is B. Roger!

-This is C. Roger!

Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong, who gave the order, breathed deeply. He put the CS5 back into the holster and took out two small grenades from the left pouch of the tactical bulletproof vest. Then, he pulled the CS1 laser rifle on his shoulder and turned it to a position where he could shoot at any time.

Laser beams flying at the speed of light from outside the building hit the heads of Scorpion agents who were searching the third floor. Along with this, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong threw two grenades.

Boom! Bam!

Two grenades which had more destructive power than regular grenades blew up three Scorpion agents, filling up the third floor with dust. Assistant Manager Park also shot at all the lights with the CS1 laser rifle and made the room dark.

It was more beneficial for Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong when it was dark since he could see using the infrared light. However, there was something that Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong overlooked. The sunglasses worn by Scorpion agents also had infrared vision mode function.

Boom! Boom!

Pew! Pew! Pew!

Chief Park Won-ho, who was on the other side, also fired a laser beam and smart bullets.

Pow! Pow! Pow!

Although some of the Scorpion agents fired artillery, Assistant Manager Park Gi-oong and Chief Park Won-ho, who received the sniper’s accurate support, defeated the 10 Scorpion agents on the third floor more easily than expected.

At that time, Chief Ahn Ki-cheol sent a message using brain waves.

-This is C! I found someone lying in the corner at 9 o’clock on the fourth floor! It seems to be the team leader! The location confirmed on the smartphone is also the same! Over!

Currently, on the fourth floor of the main staircase, 10 Scorpion agents were guarding, armed with heavy weapons. It would not be easy to pass them.

-This is B. I confirmed the emergency stairs on the left. I will go through there. Over.

-This is A. Copy that. I will hold the enemy on the main staircase. C supports B. Over.

-This is C. Copy that.

Chief Park Won-ho activated the TCS mode after replacing the battery of the control device. Then he started running to the emergency stairs. As Chief Park Won-ho ran, his surroundings seemed twisted due to the transparent effect. Even though the sunglasses of the Scorpion agents had many kinds of effects like shield glasses, they could not easily detect him in the dark.

When Chief Park Won-ho arrived at the fourth floor through the emergency stairs, he received a hail of gunfire. It was because he was in a hurry and passed the infrared laser detector installed on the stairs. Some of the Scorpion agents were waiting for him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Pew! Pew!

Around Chief Park Won-ho, numerous bullet marks flew past with sparks. Even though Chief Park Won-ho was in TCS mode, they could faintly see him through their sunglasses and fired indiscriminately at him.

Bam!

Unfortunately, several bullets hit the thigh of Chief Park Won-ho, who flung his body toward the pillar. Thanks to the protective suit, the bullets were bounced off, but the pain was considerable because he got hit by many bullets at the same time.

“God damn. That hurts a lot.”

Chief Park Won-ho unwittingly swore and rubbed his thighs with his left hand. Then he leaned against the pillar, held the CS2 laser rifle, and took a counter-shooting position.

Pew! Swish! Pew-pew! Peeew!

However, the Scorpion agents continued to shot bullets without giving a break, and the pillar that Chief Park Won-ho used as a cover was becoming like a beehive.

“Damn, they are good! I am even using TCS mode!”

He muttered to himself, waiting for a chance. At that moment, the heads of Scorpion agents began to blow up like watermelons, spreading the dark blood all over the place. Chief Ahn Ki-cheol provided sniper support from the roof of the building.

Bam! Argh! Pew! Yell!

Chief Park Won-ho turned around the pillar and took a shooting position. He fired smart bullets and laser beams in continuous shooting mode.

-This is C. I secured the path for the forward movement. B, move over.

-This is B, roger that.

Chief Park Won-ho started to run to the expected point where the team leader was down. After passing through a long corridor and entering a rather large space, Chief Park Won-ho flew toward the Scorpion agent, cut his neck with a sharp knife, and landed on the floor. As he turned his head, he found Team Leader Kim Jin-joong, lying on a camp bed wearing only a protective suit.

“Sir!”

Chief Park Won-ho turned off the TCS mode and hugged Team Leader Kim Jin-joong. His cheekbones and nose bones were collapsed as he was beaten too much.

“Those bastards!”

Chief Park Won-ho flared up in anger as he checked the face of his team leader.

-This is B. I secured the team leader! C, support a withdrawal route. Over!

-This is C. Don’t worry about that! Is he okay? Over.

-This is B. He is unconscious but still alive. Ki-cheol! Secure the retreat!

Chief Park Won-ho carried Team Leader Kim Jin-joong on his shoulder and started running to the emergency stairs that he had just used.
