Chapter 31

After finishing the contact, Peter put the radio to its place and glanced around his men. He hold his head with one hand and said, "Listen up, guys. We gotta do something."

Three minutes later, eight men came out of the house. They were all wearing necklaces on their necks. Although there were no visible monsters around 200 meters, they didn't want to meet some accidents. Four started to cleared up the field while the other four went around to refill the fuel of the lamps. When they finished it, they started to rearrange the traps. Brian also thought of his mistakes. So, after a short discussion with Peter, the plan changed to target the big guys.

Just after they rearranged the explosives, Tina came out with a bucket. It was full of garlic water and diesel. Tina thought of it on a whim. She read about this on a book although she was not sure of it could help them or not. She wanted to try it out because it would do no bad result to them.

So, Peter, Ronald, Luke and Allen started to pour some of these liquids around the house. After finishing the task, they returned into the house. It was not that they didn't want to help the guys handling the corpses. Because they were going to help the Eagles. They knew the dangers but they still wanted to try it. Peter decided to go with only four people including him. According to the plan, they would take a truck and attack the monsters which were besieging the survivors in Tosta street. They would run after solving the monsters from the back. The whole plan was just to harass the monsters and break the enemy formation.

Fortunately, all the monsters in the neighborhood died neatly in besieging the Julia's house. So, they were able to safely operate according to their plans. The former four people were exchanged with another four people already when the squad of Peter left with the truck. The squad was composed of Peter, Ronald, Luke and Allen. Tina and other watched the truck leaving them from the second floor. Tina could not understand why Peter chose to do that. She felt that they were completely being able to defend the monsters in Julia's house. As for SWAT and other survivors, she felt that they shouldn't need help from a small team like them at all. After all, she knew that SWAT was composed of at least 20 well trained people and they might have many armed survivors. Because SWAT were still hardly resisting the monsters, and they killed the monsters under the artifact's protection.

Tina could only watch the truck which was disappearing from her vision and prayed for her beloved.

Luke drove the car according to the path they searched along during the previous night. Thanks to that, he was quite familiar with the roads. They took the town's outermost roads and made a big detour. The streets were peaceful and clear and they only met several monsters on the way.

As soon as their truck got to the Tosta street, they saw the monsters besieging the big mansion. They were surprised by the scale of the battle. Several hundreds monsters were still attacking the big mansion in wave after wave. The survivors were also no joke. Nearly three hundreds survivors all had rifles in their hands and they were the strongest defenders. Most of them were young adults and middle aged men and women. After a day of struggle, they all became veterans. They understood how to efficiently kill the monsters.

After killing the lone wolf which rushed towards the family truck, Peter opened the radio and said, "Ermines to Eagles, Ermines to Eagles. Do you hear me? Standby. Over."

Chester who was planning the defensive strategy picked up the radio on the table and hurriedly said, "This is Eagle-1. I can hear you. Over."

Peter gestured Allen to prepare the things. He and Allen were on the truck bed while Luke was driving and Ronald was beside him. To make things convenient, they removed the windshield before they left the house. There were four electric lamps tied on the four corners of the truck impressively. Otherwise, they might be already dead if they met gray mists on the way.

"Eagle-1, we are watching the battle at the end of the Tosta street. We request for permission to engage. Over."

Chester hurriedly opened the windows and looked around with the thermal vision goggles. Soon, he found the four. Chester spoke to the radio, "Ermines, I want you to attack the group of humanoid monsters at 11 o'clock near the burning tree. Do your best and retreat immediately. Over."

A town which should have been peaceful like normal other days had now fallen into blood, deaths and struggles. Although the strange mists covered the whole sky and every parts of the town, there were still two places which various lights were brightly lit. One was the house of Julia in the Jasmine Street while the other was the big mansion in the Tosta Street. The front one just withstood the attack of monsters. But the latter was in a bad situation.

Battlecries were constantly arousing the spirits of survivors. Intense gunshots kept appearing with the fall of wolves which were besieging the manor. Many of them couldn't even pass through the wall of the manor. Some which successfully entered the manor would also be killed soon. Although they were facing the tragic battle, survivors didn't feel much fear.

There were two reasons for that. The first one was because these monsters could be killed by modern weapons and they were all gun lovers like every other American folks. Although the sudden invasion took away many lives, these people all reacted quickly and fought back. After a day of struggle, they all could be called elites. They were already familiar with how to kill these monsters in the fastest way. The second reason was due to the existence of SWAT team from San Christobal City. The guidance and leading of the professionals kept them safe. They got the effective and safest planning from Chester. Many of his strategic plans saved a lot of trouble from them which unconditionally saved the lives of many people.

Batch after batch of fighters were changed since the start of the battle. It saved the stamina and combat effectiveness. Although the monsters were a lot, the firepower of survivors was also very strong. To besiege the big and last stronghold of humans, two third of the monsters in the town participated in the battle. However, after fighting for so long, nearly half of them were dead while only three people died in the side of survivors.

But the numbers of monsters were no joke. The front gate was finally destroyed. Just as the monsters flooded into the front yard, an explosion took away the lives of monsters. The survivors started to feel nervous. Although they were putting their trust on Chester, they were still afraid to face melee attack of those monster wolves. Not to mention, there were still a few hundreds humanoid monsters at the back.

At that time, a family truck appeared at the back line of monsters. Two men standing at the truck bed started attacking at the group of humanoid monsters near the burning tree after firing two rockets into the crowd. One of them was holding the Vulcan Gatling and shooting continuously as if he had infinite bullets.

The man sitting beside the driver was not holding back either. He was also taking down the enemy monsters which were approaching the truck. Due to his extraordinary accuracy and lack of windshield, almost every monster was taken down with just a single shot.

It all happened in just several seconds. When the monsters noticed the truck, large amount of humanoid monsters at the back were already killed. A strange sound clearly spread across the battlefield and all humanoid monsters and monster wolves started to retreat back. Although monsters gave up attacking the mansion, survivors didn't stop attacking the monsters. It caused more damage to the retreating monsters.

After issuing the retreating command, the humanoid monster of about two meters tall jumped down from the roof of a townhouse. The monster was wearing a red cloak and holding a bone staff. Under the cloak was a red skin humanoid monster in a simple set of clothes made of unknown leathers. Unlike other humanoid monsters with thick muscles, he had a rather normal body. He was wearing a necklace made of small red crystals. He looked at the already retreating family truck with angers. As he read the strange words, two fireballs appeared out of thin air. The fireballs chased after the distant truck as the humanoid monster waved his bone staff. After taking the last glance at the brightly lit mansion, the humanoid monster retreated back into the mists along with the other monsters.

On the moving truck along the Tosta Street towards the outside of the town, Allen sat down simply and laughed, "Cool! Did you see that? I shot down those mother fuckers like slaying the weeds with mowing machine."

They immediately retreated back along the road the came according to the plan after giving almost everything they brought to the monsters. With the successful attack, Luke and Allen couldn't wait to celebrate.
