Chapter 972 Take Them Out

All the participants both within and outside the mystic realm looked toward the Rattlesnake Special Forces.

This was the main issue!

The conflict between the Rattlesnake Special Forces and Brendon was essentially a moral matter and unrelated to the rules.

However, at the end of the day, it wasn't about venting. It was about the Dragon Soul Special Forces' energy replenishment to the next area.

Without it, no matter how strong Dragon Soul was, they would not be able to hold out.

Putting this issue aside, the Rattlesnake Special Forces had been singlehandedly defeated by Brendon.

The best way to take their revenge on him was to keep Dragon Soul's energy and water and push forward to Area Three before taking Dragon Soul's energy replenishments in the exact same way.

If that happened, Dragon Soul would be in big trouble.

Everyone knew the Rattlesnake Special Forces would not return the energy and water to Dragon Soul.

It was foolish to give away something that they had obtained with such difficulty.

This would be the best revenge on Dragon Soul.

If Dragon Soul acted impulsively and crossed the line to seize the supplies, according to the rules, they would immediately be eliminated.

As such, if Dragon Soul wanted to move on to the next area, they had to hold out without supplies and gamble their chances.

Dana raised her swollen face, gritting her teeth as she said, "Brendon, dream on! Without energy and water, Dragon Soul can slowly starve and die of thirst!" She laughed.

Brendon was furious. His mind was whirling and he didn't stop to think. Taking a stance, he readied himself to charge toward the Rattlesnake Special Forces.

Catherine and the rest tried to stop him but it was too late.

Just as Brendon was about to cross the boundary, Robin's voice boomed through the earpiece, "Stop! The rules of the competition cannot be broken. Otherwise, Dragon Soul will be eliminated from the rest of the matches!" Brendon roared, "If we can't retrieve our supplies, how can we to continue?"

"I am the commander, that's for me to worry about!" Robin chided him coldly.

"Think about it! A real martial art expert would use proper means to defeat those who use underhanded means!" Robin continued.

"But... "Brendon looked up at the dry and scorching weather, before glancing at the dry and cracked lips of his members, shaking his head reluctantly.

"No arguments! Follow my orders. Return to the team and move out quickly!"

"Yes!" Brendon glared fiercely at the Rattlesnake Special Forces before turning to rejoin his team.

All the members of the Rattlesnake Special Forces looked toward Brendon and the rest of Dragon Soul, who were all filled with a righteous indignation, before bursting into laughter. Despite being badly beaten, the Rattlesnake Special Forces felt it had all been worth it.

Mario taunted Brendon loudly, laughing, "Without energy or water, you'll never be able to leave Area Two! Dragon Soul won't even be able to pass the preliminary round this time! Bye!" As news traveled, all the other participating teams were overjoyed.

They were gloating and secretly rejoicing.

All the other participants knew that Dragon Soul was a powerful force.

This was despite the fact that Dragon Soul had not done well in previous competitions.

For the past 20 years, they had been ranked in seventh place, which was the last place within the top tier of the ranking.

Even so, all of the teams knew that Dragon Soul was one of the strongest elite teams in the world.

If Dragon Soul was eliminated here, it meant a strong team would be out of the running.

That meant one less obstacle for all of the other participating teams.

Everyone else would benefit.

None of the teams delayed any further and quietly quickened their pace.

All of them hoped that Dragon Soul would not appear in Area Three.

Dragon Soul's supplies would thus become an additional source of supplies for the rest of them.

As long as they obtained those supplies, they would increase their chances of victory along the way.

However, as the saying goes, pride comes before a fall.

At this moment, the Rattlesnake Special Forces made an extremely provocative move.

They shouted loudly at Dragon Soul, as well as all the other teams, "Everyone, let's take out our spoils! Have a nice drink, replenish our energy, and move forward!"

All the members of the Rattlesnake

Special Forces deliberately

exaggerated their movements,

opening the lids of the water bottles and drinking them in front of

everyone.

Mario had merely taken a few sips before he made a disgusted sound, spat out what he drank, and exclaimed, "What the heck! It stinks! What in the world is this?" He took a deep sniff and a strong smell of urine and bird droppings hit him.

Coupled with the scorching hot weather, the foul smell was strong enough to cause anyone to pass out.

As Mario spat out the water, the other members of the Rattlesnake Special Forces started gagging as well. "D*mn! This is urine! Bird droppings!"

Hearing this, Brendon stopped in his tracks.

At first, he had thought the Rattlesnake Special Forces were playing a prank.

However, a gust of strong wind brought the foul smell with it and he realized they were telling the truth.

What was going on?

Freya and Gavin quickly raised their voices at him, "Come back quickly, we're moving out!"

Mario and his members quickly shouted, "I want to file a complaint! Dragon Soul tampered with the energy and water!"noveldrama

"They filled the bottles with urine and bird droppings!"

"Despicable!"

The rest of the teams in the mystic realm were puzzled.

Then, it dawned on them.

Everyone realized that there were only eight members in the Dragon Soul Special Forces right now.

The other two members must have arrived ahead of everyone else and tampered with the bottles.

This meant that Dragon Soul still had their energy and water.

Brendon and Catherine realized it at this moment as well.

Robin had anticipated that the other team would resort to underhanded tricks.

The Rattlesnake Special Forces had intended to sabotage Dragon Soul from the beginning.

However, they had been outsmarted by Robin's tactics.

...

At the Command Center outside the mystic realm, the commander of the Rattlesnake Special Forces was protesting strongly and complained to the organizers. The enforcement team asked Robin, "Mr. Ramsey, what did your team do?"

Robin responded indifferently, "Our vanguard members merely replaced the energy and water stored in Area Two with urine and bird droppings. Anything my team members did or stored within the bottles was within our boundaries. These belong to us, so no one has the right to interfere. The Rattlesnake Special Forces crossed the boundary and stole from us. Whatever it is, even if they stole urine, they brought it upon themselves! A thief can't ask for justice! If they cross the boundary again, I'll ask my team members to take them out!"

The commander of the Rattlesnake Special Forces continued to complain, citing the fact that Robin had given too many orders in a single area.

Before the enforcement team could

issue any warning, Robin directly turned on the public broadcast switch, "I did so under irregular

circumstances. If the Rattlesnaket

Special Forces continue to sabotage my team, I can order my team to

break some rules and t

anyone who provokes us without a cause!"
