The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 324: an endless army

Deep inside the forest bordering Vatican City, the jungle seemed to have become a living organism as activities went on inside at a steady frequency, arousing all life that was living inside it.

The forest was not too big in the first place, which made all the activities going on more obvious.

Military vehicles of various types with even more weapon armaments plied the rough pathways of the forest, crushing twigs of trees, bushes, animals, and even exobeasts as they moved.

Terrorists stood and sat at various angles in the vehicles, filling all spaces as they migrated in a direction leading to the center point of the forest.

The terrorist soldiers all held different weapons in their hands, ranging from melee weapons to ranged weapons. Even demolition experts were among the migrants, and they were armed in their full gear.

The expression on their faces was not friendly either, they all had expressions like they were going to war. Stony faces that could match the bark of a tree outlined their faces, including the females.

These waves of activities were not from a single direction. The forest being described as a living organism was no exaggeration, terrorists mobilized at their full power from all over the jungle.

It was an intimidating sight of power.

Seeing this fearsome display, all beasts in the forest were wise enough to take shelter at such a moment. Even the exobeast who was the overlord of the forest was wise enough to hide and watch from the shadows.

Having received orders from their higher-ups already, the terrorists moved with a clear motive in mind.

Commander Tiver was inside this entourage moving with a clear motive in mind. As one of the minor commanders of the terrorist organization, he led his base and its soldiers forward in acknowledgment of the order.

Accompanying the order that was given to them was a detailed explanation of their circumstances. Every terrorist already knew that their comrades inside the city were probably dead, so they were moving forward with vengeance.

Before the news even came, Commander Tiver was already expecting it. Unlike what other terrorists may feel, he no longer felt any guilt that he betrayed the trust of his fellow terrorist comrades.

He already resigned to his fate, so he felt that doing the evil deed to the best of his ability was the most important thing to do now.

For the first information that he sent to the Vatican Captain, he had to pull a lot of strings and ask a lot of favors before he got it. He even had to put his life at risk at some point but he didnt care, it was all worth it.

Right now, instead of thinking of the upcoming battle, he was rather thinking of better ways to make sure that his comrades die at the hands of the Vatican soldiers more smoothly.

He knew that in this battle, he would just be one of the slightly bigger subordinates but he was ok with that so long as he found holes to exploit to better spread his mischief.

Call him a traitor, he didnt care. Call it vicious, he loved it vicious.

Just 5 minutes after he left his base with his subordinates, he started meeting other base soldiers in the way who were all going in the same direction. 3 minutes later, they all finally got to the center of the forest.

The sight could only be described as mind-blowing. It was an army of tens of thousands, it could make any weak-willed civilian faint in shock.

Sitting in the middle of the forest were hundreds if not thousands of military vehicles, with tens of thousands of terrorists standing and surrounding a military vehicle that was in the middle.

It was just like an endless undead army.

As soon as they got there, Commander Tiver led his subordinates forward and joined the still growing number of terrorists.

As a minor Commander, information like the overall number of terrorists bordering Vatican City was not available to him. Seeing this scene, he felt that he underestimated his organization by a lot.

Suddenly, he felt a pang of panic strike at him. What if his organization snowballed and won the battle by a landslide? He would surely be discovered, was he screwed?

He felt scared but he was able to console himself by just the fact of how confident Clark looked when talking to him. It could have been a ploy but unfortunately, he already had a phobia for the captain.

He already did the deed; in the end, he resigned to his fate and placed all his hopes on the captain.

A few minutes later after all the terrorists convened, the female main Commander, Commander Keidi came out of the military vehicle that was parked at the middle of their convergence.

Seeing their idol, the terrorists got excited immediately but the Commander shunned them all with a raise of her hand. With just a few words, she gave her orders before going back to her vehicle.

She divided the attacking group into 2 and gave them orders. The first group which was also the largest group quickly left as the first vanguard troop, the others stayed and waited behind.

A few minutes later, the tyrant Commander who was the overall leader of all Vatican-related matters finally showed up.

Commander Titus had his default stern expression on his face, his subordinates did not have the guts to get excited about seeing him.

All he did was give a prep speech, and this alone was enough to rile up the emotions of all the terrorists.

I have only one word to emphasize for you all. He continued. Major Clark is our main target, kill him and our mission is accomplished. Understood?

Yes, Commander!

Good, move out!

Under his leadership, the remaining terrorists finally took to the rough pathways of the forest before moving forward in the direction of the city.

Vatican, beware of our wrath!

40 minutes, that was the only time that was allocated for the Vatican soldiers who fought and killed throughout the night to rest.

After these golden 40 minutes, they were called upon by their leader again. This time, not only some but every single soldier in the city was mobilized for this decisive battle.

In just 2 minutes after the call was made, the whole city became boisterous again. The soldiers went back to their posts in 5 minutes before manning the checkpoints for the phase one bulwark defense plan.

Nothing was left behind in warehouses, they were all carried out. Ammunitions, guns, cold weapons, military gadgets, special machines, military vehicles, they were all hauled out of their military warehouses.

The surface of Vatican City practically started crawling with weapons of mass destruction, showing the intensity of the upcoming battle.

10 minutes later, all the soldiers located their checkpoints. All weapons and machines were set, the great bulwark defense wall trigger was prepared, and the city was reader to pound hard at the terrorists.

After all the preparations, they waited. They waited, and they waited again.

25 minutes later, dust rose into the air from the distance. Small black dots from kilometers away filled the sight of the soldiers, the terrorists were finally here in their full repertoire.

The war for supremacy was on!
