章 20: Breakout
General Rico woke up in a small dark room, but the general could feel that he was in some sort of a basement. His hand was tied up to a chain hanging from the ceiling. He's alone, he's angry.. the scene that happened a day before was still hurting in his mind. All 30 plus special forces, his men, all died.
The enemy was prepared, the past 10 days General Rico had managed to take out 5 hidden terrorist bases all around Java, all with zero casualties. This time it was a huge disaster.
"What went wrong?"
The terrorists were particularly different this time, they were fully armed and they were organized.
General Rico suddenly heard a footstep, a few people walked through the door. There were 5 men, the other 3 seemed like normal guards, there was one standing a little bit in the back, The general couldn't really see his face clearly. He seemed to be a foreigner from a middle eastern country.
The other walked closer to him.
"Brigadier General Rico..."
"The youngest General in Indonesian history and also vice-chief of the special forces. Impressive."
The General could recognize the sound of this man, this was the man who ordered the death of Lieutenant Leon, and probably the leader in charge of the operation that killed all of his men. The general lost his calm, he's enraged.
"Calm down General, what's with the hostile reaction, please... I know I killed many of your men yesterday, but you killed more of my men, you can't possibly say that my men are worth less than yours? We are at war, General."
"General I did my research, and realized you were personally in charge in destroying 5 of our base in the last few days. Where did you get your Intel?"
The men started to torture the General, they hit him, did water torture to him and even cut one of his fingers, but the General didn't say a word, even if he wanted to tell the truth, what should he say? "A weird ordinary looking man came in and just gave the intel to him for no reason at all?" The General had a better chance to be released by saying the government had created an intel robot or something like that.
After a few hours, they finally left him. Probably considering a different approach. The General thought his chances to escape were very slim.
A few hours later he heard more steps and a few more people coming in. This time, the General was really surprised, there's another person coming to the room this time, a person in his thirties. His face looked ordinary, and this man was smiling seeing him... The general recognized him. It was that weird guy.
The General's first reaction was, this was the guy who gave him the intel, there's a big chance this guy also gave intel to the terrorist, he could even be the one who set up the ambush. Athe fact this guy was here in the room proved it...
"It's YOUR FAULT!"... The general was enraged, but then suddenly his brain thought further, he started to notice how the guard treated Alex, and the fact Alex also had his hands in shackles. soon after they also chained Alex to the ceiling next to him.
The terrorist said: "This is weird, it seems you recognize this man, but you don't like him. Probably not your friend, anyway, we caught him outside this base, did the police forces find out about this base already?"
The guy quickly rushed out of the room with all the guards. Now there were only Alex and General Rico in the room chained next to each other.
The General said: "Tell me honestly, are you involved with the ambush that killed my men?"
"Wow, is that the thought of the person who tries hard to find and rescue you? I thought we were friends already, General."
"Rescue? Is the police really here already?"
"Nope, sorry General, only me."
"...Only you? And now you are also captured?.... How did you find this place anyway?"
"After hearing the news yesterday, I got worried and luckily I was in the city, took a stroll to a few bases near this city, took them out while I was at it. Then finally, I found this place, this was the lucky place number 4."
.
.
...Speechless..
.
This guy probably really had a screw loose in his head...
"How do you plan to rescue me, you can't even rescue yourself..... What the fxxxxxx!"
.
.
Alex did something.. With his high stage mortal realm it's not hard for Alex to break the chain himself, he then walked closer and broke the General's chain as well. The General didn't realize it, Alex did it while he was still talking.
The General is speechless.
Alex said: "You are too weak to walk general, they really did a number on you. Here, take this."
"Out of nowhere, Alex took out a white stone and suddenly forced it into the General's mouth."
Surprised, confused, puzzled, enraged. Mixed feelings. But he couldn't make much noise or fight this guy. Suddenly there's a surge of energy slowly flowing in the general body...
"Keep calm and don't fight it. That stone I gave you will increase your strength."
After 15 minutes Rico felt like he's back in his youth body, even stronger. The General now was at the middle stage of the Human Realm, even the top special forces agents were weaker than him right now.
"Ok, General. Prepare to get out."
The door was actually unlocked, they probably thought no ordinary human could break that chain.
Alex and the General walked out of the basement slowly.
With their skill, it's pretty easy to disable a few hostiles, take their weapons and start killing them one by one. The General was still surprised by his new strength. He can run faster, jump higher, aim better.. When he saw Alex, it was even more amazing.
.
.
One bullet... One shot... One kill.
In less than 10 minutes the base was cleared by both of them. They killed at least 30 hostiles. They ended up walking into the final room. There the general saw the guy who interrogated him and killed his comrades. The guy was actually a coward, when he saw what Alex and the General did, he ran to hide in this room.
The General said: "I need to interrogate him."
Alex nodded.
The guy spilled everything easily. He said that he's just a nobody. Then he gave out the foreigner's name.. His name was Hafiz. He is one of the top leaders of the Heaven's Gate terrorist group. He just left the compound 15 minutes ago when he heard a suspicious man was captured. He's very careful.
The name surprised the General, as the name was included in one of the world's most wanted list. Alex was even more surprised than the general... Hafiz in his previous life was an infamous spirit saint. Too bad he's gone, it would be great if he could kill him while he's still in the mortal realm.
"Are you done with this guy, General?", Alex said.
General thought and said: "I will contact headquarters to send him to prison…"
BANG...
A shot to the head by Alex.
"This guy doesn't belong in prison."
"Who are you exactly, and why did you help me?"
"As I said before, General, I want to be your friend, my name is Alex. And Let's just say I hate the terrorists as much as you do, so I need you to kill as many terrorists as you can, General."
Actually, in his previous life, General Rico once saved his life, so Alex did it to return the favor.
"What was that stone you gave to me?"
"Just a new medical breakthrough, don't worry too much about it."
Before leaving, Alex walked around and took all weapon from the bodies, he then searched for something...
"Jackpot."
A room full of C4 explosives... Another one of his reasons to come here...
