Chapter 174 - 170: Trapped

"I'm not from the FBI, and I'm not here to harm you. I just wanted to ask a few questions and leave. It would be good if you come with me," Ryder told Okala as he gave up on hiding.

He had already failed many times, and he realized that today was not a good day for him even to try this infiltration game. He was not good at it, or the destiny didn't want him to succeed. He was now going to use brute force.

"Fine. I will answer your question, but only after you help me take care of the FBI," Okala told Ryder.

"If you knew that your member was caught by the FBI, why did you still have a meeting here? Since you confidently came here, I don't believe that you didn't plan something," Ryder let out as he shook his head.

"Clever. I did plan something. For them, and for you," Okala gave a burst of creepy laughter before he raised his hand.

Five people aimed their weapon towards Ryder.

Out on the land, Riya had finished counting to 60, but no one had stepped out.

"We'll have to do it the hard way. Be careful, though. One of our agents is inside. Don't shoot the person who is wearing black shoes with red laces," Jacob reminded the others.

They were about to barge inside while shooting when things started changing.

A bullet came out of nowhere and penetrated the head of one of the special ops agents.

Another bullet came, taking another life.

"Take cover. There are snipers here. This was a trap!" The Special Ops captain let out as he hid behind a wall.

The other agents also took cover.

"We underestimated them. It was not a trap by us for them. It was a trap from them for us. Those bastards!" Jacob cursed.

"Let's barge inside and kill those bastards! Let's see how their sniper will shoot us underground," A cop suggested.

"We can't make decisions in a hurry. We were planning to get in by throwing tear gas inside and then barging inside while shooting, but even if we did that, it would not benefit us anymore with the snipers. We need more back-up," Riya let out as she called the captain to inform him of the situation.

She suddenly heard the sound of a bullet being fired. She looked to her side and saw that it was a special ops guy who had shot a man that was coming towards them with a weapon. The man didn't fall down to the ground, though.

The cops also started shooting at the man, but it didn't seem like there was any effect. It was kind the man was a zombie or an undead 

The undead man raised the machine gun to fire, but that's when a grenade landed below his feet and blew him to smithereens.

It was another special ops agent that had thrown the grenade.

"Just what the heck was that thing?!" he exclaimed.

Riya and the others were also having difficulty understanding what was happening.

She was on the phone with the captain. She had described what was happening.

The captain told them that he was sending helicopters for them and more back-up agents to go through the buildings to find the snipers.

The cops and the special ops captain had also informed their higher-ups.

The situation grew even more severe as over 29 people, just like the previous undead guy, came shooting towards them. Most of the bullets were stopped by the bulletproof vests, while some managed to hit the exposed areas and killed them.

"There's no benefit in pointing a gun at me," Ryder let out as he raised his hand.

A machine gun appeared in his hand out of nowhere. He started firing recklessly, killing almost anyone and everyone that came into his sight.

He missed Okala intentionally, though.

Blood kept flowing like rivers as people kept dying. Ray was lying on the ground, and he was safe.

He saw a person shooting the others. He realized that this person was probably not one of them from his exchange with Okala, but he was curious about who he was then and why he was in the enemy's den.

Ryder killed almost everyone in the room, even the ones that were standing near the entrance to fire at the ones that tried to enter, but he was also shot many times.

Around 20 bullets had managed to penetrate his chest while another five passed through his forehead. His hand and his legs were also in a similarly bad condition.

He fell down to the ground as blood kept flowing out of his body.

"Sigh, you killed all my pawns," Okala muttered as he looked at the dead people in the room.

Only the ones that had a grey mask were still standing despite being shot multiple times.

There were 20 people in grey masks standing at the moment, excluding the undead whose mask had fallen off when he took down Ray. Other than them, only Ray and Okala were alive.

"We can probably use your body, I guess. Since you took so many men from us, let me use you to the fullest," Okala chuckled as he licked his lips while looking at Ryder.

*****

The situation outside was much worse. Tens of bodies were lying on the ground. Most of them belonged to the cops, while some of them belonged to the special ops agents.

The Three FBI agents were still alive, though.

They had realized that these grey masked people were difficult to kill. They would just not die no matter what they did unless their bodies were blown to smithereens using grenades.

"If this keeps going on, we would die!" The Special Ops leader Francis said as he saw his men die.

*grr grr grr*

They heard a loud sound suddenly.

They looked towards the sky and saw tens of military helicopters flying towards them.

The helicopters soon landed before them.

Everyone entered the helicopters.

While four helicopters flew above the entrance of the underground hallway to keep an eye on the ones that came out, the other two focused on killing the grey masked men.

The other helicopters flew in the surroundings to keep an eye to find the snipers.

"They brought helicopters as well. I guess it was expected. I want to see the fireworks," Okala muttered as he picked up Ryder in his arms.

One of the grey masked men pointed a gun on Ray's head. Okala told him to follow his commands, or his brain will be blown up by Okala's men.

Okala and his 21 men walked towards the exit.
