Zarukhar's eloquent speech was broadcasted through the loudspeakers throughout the camp and beyond.
Outside the camp, Kieran could hear it loud and clear from the shadows of the ruins.
"Avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial!"
Kieran commented.
At the same time, Kieran was looking forward to Zarukhar's performance on the stage he had set up.
As for General Zennings?
Kieran had just seen a few rebel soldiers leave the camp quietly with his own eyes.
The identities of these rebel soldiers were self-evident.
It was obvious that General Zennings had planted more than one spy around Zarukhar.
General Zennings must have known about Zarukhar's' betrayal 'beforehand.
That was what Kieran wanted.
He wanted a fierce battle between the two of them.
That was the only way he could take them both out.
Kaboom! Kaboom!
The roar of the tank engines in the military camp was like thunder, and the footsteps of the soldiers boarding the transport vehicles were like the hum of war drums.
The rebel soldiers under Zarukhar had started to move out.
Tucker and the personnel carriers whizzed past.
Only three squads were left to guard the camp.
Kieran glanced at the empty camp with a pitiful expression.
If it had not been for something more important, he would not have let go of the opportunity before him.
After all, the camp was full of supplies. Not only were there daily necessities, but there were also military supplies. There were piles of military weapons and equipment. Kieran was tempted just by the thought of it.
However, Kieran was not the kind of person who would give up on the whole plan just because of a small profit.
Although it would hurt him a lot.
It was the same feeling he had when he was forced to give up on the light machine gun.
The light machine gun and the boxes of ammunition were too heavy.
Even though his Strength and Constitution had increased by one rank, he could not carry a sniper rifle and all the other items on him, along with a light machine gun and a box of ammunition.
Unless Kieran gave up on running.
But that was not going to happen.
Phew!
Taking a deep breath, Kieran started to run under the cover of the shadows.
In his vision, the rebel army's convoy had already become a blur.
It was naturally quite difficult to catch up.
Fortunately, Kieran knew the destination of this convoy!
With Colleen's guidance, Kieran was already familiar with the distribution of the rebel forces in the city.
Aside from Zarukhar's camp and General Zennings' camp, there were two other camps left in the city, each under the command of a different rebel commander. They were stationed in the south and west sides of the city.
The rebel soldiers led by Zarukhar were stationed near the center of the city.
As for Zennings, he occupied the real center of the city: Times Square!
Therefore, the distance between them was not far.
If he took the shortcut, it would be even shorter.
Kieran made his way through the ruins to Times Square. He was faster than Zarukhar's convoy, who had to take a detour. He quickly searched for a high vantage point.
Then, Kieran found that the place he was looking for was occupied.
The sniper was hiding in the shadows, aiming his sniper rifle in the direction of the road, overlooking the whole of Times Square.
Suddenly, Kieran's back broke out in a cold sweat.
If he had not taken the shortcut, which was right below the sniper, which was a blind spot, he would have definitely appeared in the sniper's shooting range.
Although the sniper was there for Zarukhar, who could guarantee that he would not take out some eyesores in advance?
And if there was a sniper here, what about the other high vantage points?
As the thought came to his mind, he shrunk himself into the shadows even more carefully, carefully observing his surroundings.
There were at least four more snipers!
Realizing that something was fishy, Kieran was glad that he had entered Undercover mode before he got close to Times Square.
Otherwise, he would have been shot full of holes.
"Times Square? It should be Sniper Square! "
Kieran thought to himself.
Looking at the sniper in front of him, Kieran did not make a move immediately.
Although Kieran was confident that he could kill the sniper in front of him, he could not guarantee that he would not be discovered by the other snipers. Only when the other snipers were completely focused on him could he make a move.
Such a wait wouldn't take long.
Kieran knew very well who they were waiting for.
Zarukhar!
Obviously, General Zennings had received the news from his informant and had quickly set up a trap for Zarukhar.
In the distance, the roar of the engine was getting clearer.
The figure of the convoy appeared in Kieran's sight.
The sniper in front of him quickly adjusted his position, but before he could finish, a strong palm covered his mouth and pulled him back. Then, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.
Kieran put down the sniper's body and checked the sniper's rifle. He found that it was also a [Viper-M1], but it lacked two attributes compared to his, so he did not care anymore.
He picked up the sniper rifle and aimed at the ground.
However, he still kept a portion of his attention to observe the movements of the grass in his surroundings.
Although he could not be sure whether Zarukhar would send his men to occupy the high ground, Kieran did not want to follow in the footsteps of the sniper beside him.
…..
"Sir General, Zarukhar is here!"
The staff officer who had been watching outside saw the convoy appear in front of Times Square, and immediately turned around to report to another person in the room.
The staff officer's respectful attitude was enough to prove the identity of the person.
The golden stars on his epaulet also represented his position.
One of the rebel generals, Zennings.
The rebel general looked younger than Kieran had expected. His black hair was mixed with a few strands of white, and it was neatly combed to the back of his head.
His chubby cheeks were rosy and full of luster.
A pair of brown eyes, sharp and frightening.
They were like the hideous centipede-like scar on his forehead.
The moment people saw him, they would instinctively avoid looking at him.
Especially when Zennings was angry, it was even more so!
"He really can't wait!"
Zennings laughed coldly. The aura of a superior was mixed with his sharp gaze, and the staff officer beside him did not even dare to breathe loudly.
After receiving the report from his informant, Zennings could not practice with the Trickster, so he immediately thought that Zarukhar had wanted to keep the jewels for himself and then frame him.
Although Zennings had never intended to share the jewels with Zarukhar, it did not mean that he would forgive Zarukhar's betrayal.
"How's the preparation going?"
Zennings turned around and looked at his staff officer.
"Everything is ready! Zarukhar is dead for sure! "
The staff officer replied immediately.
Zennings nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he slowly opened a delicate box and took out a cigar from it.
The staff officer immediately came over with a pair of cigar cutters. After cutting the cigar, he lit it with a lighter and passed it to Zennings.
"I like Rump 3. The cinnamon leather smell reminds me of a body blown up by a cannonball!"
Zennings held the cigar in his mouth and took a deep puff before exhaling a thick cloud of smoke.
The smoke covered his sharp eyes.
However, his face, which looked rather dignified, became distorted in the smoke.
"Do you know why?"
Zennings looked at the staff officer again.
The staff officer immediately shuddered. The staff officer did not know how to answer.
Fortunately, Zennings did not expect an answer from the staff officer.
After taking another deep puff of his cigar, Jennings said, "Because standing in front of someone else's corpse proves that I am the victor!"
After that, Jennings stood up from the chair.
As he grew older, his strong body had put on weight, but his aura had become more powerful. As Zennings walked forward, he looked like a lion patrolling its territory.
In comparison, Zarukhar, who was standing in front of the military camp in Times Square, looked weaker.
However, Zarukhar did not back down.
He walked towards Zennings with his head held high.
Zennings raised his hand to stop the soldiers who were about to open fire. Of course, it was also a signal to the snipers.
"General Zennings, we need justice!"
About five steps away from Zennings, Zarukhar stopped in his tracks and yelled.
"Justice?"
Zennings took the cigar out of his mouth, his sharp eyes filled with disdain.
Not only was he disdainful of Zarukhar, but he was also disdainful of the soldiers behind him.
Did Zarukhar really think that he could threaten him by bringing these rebel soldiers with him?
Did these rebel soldiers think that they could make him change his mind just because they outnumbered him?
How naive!
Zennings laughed coldly in his heart.
He wanted to wake Zarukhar and the soldiers up.
"Do you think …"
Bang!
The gunshot interrupted Zennings' words, and Zennings' head instantly exploded.
Blood mixed with brain matter splattered all over Zarukhar.
What was going on?
He did not give the signal to shoot.
Zarukhar was shocked and confused. He looked around blankly.
Bang!
Another gunshot was fired.
Zarukhar had followed in Zennings' footsteps.
His headless body fell to the ground.
The soldiers on both sides were stunned. The whole Times Square fell into a strange silence.
But it only lasted for less than two seconds.
"Revenge for the major!"
"Revenge for the general!"
The soldiers on both sides shouted at the same time, thinking that it was the other side who did it.
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang!
The next moment, gunshots and explosions broke the silence of the night.
