Kieran did not know who was responsible for setting up the camp's defenses.
It could have been Zarukhar, or someone else.
But no matter who it was, the person was not just an empty shell. The sentry tower, the machine gun net, and the patrols were enough to explain everything.
Even the rebel soldiers had to reduce the number of people assigned to them because of the sharp decrease in their numbers.
However, the places that should have been guarded were always guarded.
Except for the empty space in front of him.
Kieran did not believe that a person who had made the entire camp's defenses impenetrable would make a mistake here.
The only explanation was that it was a trap!
Landmines were the perfect choice.
They could cause a lot of damage and alert the soldiers in the camp.
It was killing two birds with one stone.
"Hope it works!"
Kieran thought as he inspected the empty space in front of him.
The next moment, he activated his skill [Tracking].
Instantly, the world in Kieran's eyes changed.
White, red, and black intertwined. Then, rows of white footprints appeared in front of Kieran's eyes.
The white footprints were very light in color, like a layer of ash that could be blown away by the wind at any time.
Kieran knew that it was because it had been too long.
The scariest thing about time was that it could unknowingly turn something profound into something ordinary, forgotten, and then disappear.
Fortunately, Kieran had arrived at the right time.
If it had been a few more days, he might not have discovered anything.
Fortunately, Kieran followed the footprints and found a safe path.
Carefully, Kieran followed the footprints and moved forward.
When he reached the bottom of the wall, his forehead was covered in sweat.
Walking in the middle of a minefield and enduring the fear of explosions was no doubt a test for Kieran's mentality.
Most of it was the stamina consumption of the skill [Tracking].
It was only a short journey of a dozen meters, but Kieran's stamina had dropped by more than half of his stamina, which had reached 150 points.
"Active skills really consume stamina!"
Glancing at his stamina, Kieran panted softly.
When his Stamina was full again, Kieran bent his legs and jumped up. His hands climbed onto the top of the wall. Then, with the strength of his arms, Kieran climbed up the wall.
Swiftly and carefully, Kieran jumped down from the wall and rolled back into the shadows.
Kieran completed this series of movements in one go.
Other than the [Undercover] skill that allowed him to blend into the shadows, Kieran relied on his enhanced physique for the rest.
Although it was only a small step from F to F +, Kieran was well aware of the changes involved.
His strength had increased, his speed had increased, and his stamina had obviously improved.
If it was like when he first entered the game, Kieran would still be able to complete such an action. However, it would be impossible for him to do it in one go.
Kieran would be overjoyed if he could complete it in one go.
"It's just F +, what if it's a higher level?"
Kieran wondered. His heart couldn't help but feel excited.
As long as he continued, he would soon be able to upgrade his attributes to a higher level.
However, Kieran quickly reacted to his current situation and forced himself to calm down.
Standing in the shadows, Kieran waited until he had calmed down before following the predetermined route to the three-storey building that used to be the school's academic building but was now the barracks' office and warehouse.
The lights and shadows from the searchlights patrolled back and forth on the field.
Especially the corners of the walls and the hidden spots, the lights were taking care of them.
It slowed down Kieran's advance.
Every few steps, he would have to stop and wait for a new opportunity.
At the same time, Kieran was glad that he chose to appear when the guards were empty.
Out of the three searchlights that were patrolling, only two were functioning normally.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have had time to wait for a new opportunity. He would have been discovered by the other searchlight.
Of course, there were also the patrolling rebel soldiers.
Even though the number of patrolling soldiers had decreased, they were still useful.
In fact, in Kieran's eyes, the patrolling rebel soldiers were the ones he had to be wary of the most.
Not only did humans have eyes, but they also had ears and a nose.
Maybe the shadows covered his body, but the sound couldn't be covered.
Therefore, every step Kieran took was soundless.
Because of that, Kieran's speed couldn't be any faster.
After a full 10 minutes, Kieran moved from the wall to the three-storey building that was guarded by two rebel soldiers.
Without alerting the two soldiers, Kieran had chosen a place to enter.
It was a window on the second floor.
The reason he chose this window was because it was close to Kieran, so he didn't have to pass through the two soldiers' line of sight. The other reason was that the window had been broken, so Kieran could pass through safely.
Like a hare leaping and a falcon swooping down, Kieran tiptoed up to the window ledge on the first floor and climbed up the eaves between the first and second floor. Using both his hands and feet, he entered through the window.
Similar to the first floor, there was no one there.
Other than a blackboard, there was only a pile of messy tables and chairs.
Kieran couldn't be sure what had happened here in the beginning, but he could see the dried blood on the ground even without [Tracking], so Kieran had some guesses.
The blood must have been thick and heavy at the beginning.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have covered such a large area.
This meant that it wasn't just one person's blood!
It must have taken at least a dozen people's blood to form!
"Damn rebel army!"
Kieran's eyes were filled with rage.
War would kill you like a dog.
Kieran couldn't deny that.
But at the same time, Kieran couldn't deny his rage either.
Looking at the tables and chairs, which were only two-thirds the size of a normal one, Kieran couldn't imagine how a bunch of innocent kids would feel when they faced off against the ferocious rebels. They would feel helpless and terrified.
Kieran felt like he could hear the gunshots that had once sounded in this place.
He felt like he could see the young lives being taken away.
Those kids were just like him. They had too many expectations and fantasies about life.
However, unlike him, those children were torn apart before they could realize or touch the most beautiful thing in their lives.
They didn't even have the chance to live.
This feeling …
It made Kieran's chest feel stuffy.
It made it hard for him to breathe.
It made Kieran feel a rage that he hadn't felt for a long time.
Once a person who was usually calm and collected got really angry, it wouldn't be that easy to calm down.
Kieran wanted to do something to vent and calm his anger.
Coincidentally, he seemed to be able to do something about it.
Making a living at an early age made Kieran unable to believe in pure kindness and mercy.
However, he wouldn't become evil or cruel.
He had been helped before.
It gave him a bottom line to hold on to.
So, he was willing to help an innocent person within his power.
Just … just within his power!
Glancing over the black, dried blood again, Kieran turned around and left the classroom. He opened the door and walked out, quickly confirming his destination.
With a rebel soldier guarding the place, it was too easy to recognize.
Other than the two guards at the door, Kieran only saw the rebel soldier in the whole building.
The place he was guarding was obviously the most important!
Taking out his dagger, Kieran quietly approached the soldier.
The corridor was a little narrow, and the whole floor was only lit by a small, dim light.
Still, it didn't affect Kieran's performance.
On the contrary, [Undercover] and [Sharp Weapon, Dagger] allowed Kieran to move around like a fish in water.
Like a cheetah hunting its prey, Kieran pounced on the soldier. Before the soldier could react, Kieran covered his mouth with his palm and slit his throat with the dagger.
[Stabbing: Lethal Attack, Inflicts 100 Damage to Target HP, (50 Sharp Weapon (Dagger) (Basic) x2), Target dies …]
After confirming the soldier's death, Kieran glanced at the locked door and started searching the soldier's body.
A second later, Kieran found something.
Kieran pulled a bunch of keys from the soldier's belt.
[Name: Warehouse Key]
[Type: Key]
[Rarity: Common]
[Attributes: None]
[Effects: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: No]
[Remarks: If you know how to pick locks, you don't need it!]
Click!
With a twist of the key, the huge lock was unlocked.
Kieran pushed the door open, and boxes after boxes appeared in front of him.
Eager, Kieran walked up to one of the boxes, broke the lock with his dagger, and opened the lid.
With the help of the dim light in the corridor, Kieran saw what was inside the box.
It was a rocket launcher!
[Name: Tekken-2]
[Type: Rocket Launcher]
[Rarity: Brand New]
[Attack: Powerful]
[Ammunition Capacity: 1 Round]
[Attributes: None]
[Effects: None]
[Prerequisites: Firearm Weapon, Heavy Weapon (Basic)]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: Depending on the rocket launcher, it can trigger explosions, armor piercing and other effects, provided that you have this kind of rocket launcher.]
...
As he touched the box, the details of the item appeared in front of Kieran's eyes.
Unfortunately, Kieran did not have the [Firearm Weapon, Heavy Weapon (Basic)] skill.
Although he could use the powerful weapon before him, he could not control it as freely as a light firearm.
After a while, Kieran turned around, broke another lock, and opened the next box.
[Name: HK-20]
[Type: Firearm]
[Rarity: Brand New]
[Attack: Strong]
[Ammunition Capacity: 100 Rounds]
[Attributes: None]
[Effects: None]
[Prerequisites: Firearm Weapon, Light Weapon (Basic)]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: To use it, you will need a large amount of 5.56mm bullets]
...
Kieran's eyes lit up. It was a weapon that he could use freely.
However, that did not stop Kieran from breaking locks and opening boxes.
It was not enough!
