Chapter 217: being the prince charming saving the damsel in distress


    The sight that greeted rk was so shocking that he hid again behind the tree despite his stealth armor still active, as a storm of emotions went through his mind.


    He was surprised as the thing causing so muchmotion was humans. Though seeing humans were supposed to be a good thing, he still felt weird about it as this was his first time seeing other humans in over a month.


    This group of humans was already in a desperate situation, as they were struggling to survive a siege from an intimidating wolf n horde.


    Seeing his fellow humans suffering and at the brink of death, he feltpelled to move immediately, but he held himself back to think more about the situation.


    First, how did these humans cross through the tunnel to this forest where countless others already died, evident from the decayed skulls that they found when crossing it?


    And by the manner they were still holding their ground against such arge wolf family, it was clear that they were trained soldiers.


    Are these people one of ourpetitors? Which country are they from?


    As these thoughts crossed rks head, he made a series of further signs with his hands which his soldiers understood as they started moving closer to the edge of the hills cliff.


    After spreading themselves orderly around the cliff and making sure to be hidden, they finally saw what was causing all thismotion. They were also shocked on seeing fellow humans.


    All the soldiers eyes narrowed after understanding the situation, as the same thought as their Majors crossed through their heads.


    If these arepetitors, I think we should use this opportunity to wipe thempletely instead of helping them. That will remove a tumor from our side that we would have worried aboutter on.


    Diana finally spoke out her suggestion in a cold tone, as her face already took on a bloodthirsty tone.


    Surprisingly, thezy bum second inmand finally spoke out to give his own input at this moment. It seems he was not always clueless After all, hisrades were shocked.


    Ignoring the weird gazes being directed at him, Benny spoke out while looking at his friend.


    rk, even if they are ourpetitors, I dont think killing them would be the best course of action at this moment.


    Meeting them at the front means that they probably arrived at this forest long before us, so its inevitable that they also know more than us. Perhaps, they already even know the way out of the forest.


    This is a rare opportunity where we met them in need. We should take advantage of it and act as the prince charminging to save the damsel in distress, at least, well have favor in their sight that way.


    From the looks of it, they probably suffered far more damage than us also, so we have the advantage of numbers even if they are stupid enough to start a war with us.


    And, we have you, thats an advantage in quality of soldiers also. Unless they have a 3rd rank high-grade soldier, which I dont think they do, we have the upper hand.


    If we take advantage of this chance to get a temporary ally, then we won big because we terribly need it.


    With that, we can better consolidate our strength to avoid more casualties while at the same time getting more chances if we discover our mission target in the end.


    Hearing their second inmands deep analysis of this encounter, all the soldiers, including rk fell into a daze as they processed this in surprise.


    So, you were thispetent in analysis and you dared toze off for the past few months.


    Instead ofplimenting his friend for this, rk grew angry and speechless on thinking of all the user input that he already missed for over a month.


    Hey, hold it. Do you want them to sight us first? Control yourself, Major. Benny quickly raised his hands before saying innocently.


    rks face twitched on seeing this as he reluctantly suppressed his urge to pounce at his friend. What azy bastard.


    Diana, what do you think? For me, I think Bennys input is more viable this time. Like he said, we are the superior side, and elite soldiers such as this should be able to judge this.


    I think acting the prince charming role this time is the best, what do you think? He finally turned to his other second inmand again, before asking.


    Yeah, I also think Benny did a good analysis job for the first time in weeks. I dont have any objections, as long as you agree to let him take over every analysis problem from now on.


    Deal, we are doing it.


    rk, what? Benny felt betrayed.


    Ignoring his pitiful friend, rk turned again before addressing hisrge group of soldiers as they all perked up like attentive birds to listen to his orders.


    You all heard us, we are storming in to help our fellow humans. If we can use this opportunity to make new ally friends, then good, but if we cant, we can as well wipe them out with these filthy wolves.


    Are you afraid?


    No, Major!


    Good, for this battle, I already devised a not too sophisticated strategy for it. All the ranged soldiers, you shall remain here at this hills cliff and provide us with cover fire.


    I, Diana, and Benny will lead the melee soldiers down to help them more directly. With our help, I think we can quickly snowball using our fierce momentum to achieve quick victory.


    For the high-grade soldiers among you, dont reveal your trump cards. Dont use your battle arts, keep them, we cannot reveal our handpletely to these soldiers yet before we understand them.


    Understood?


    Yes, Major.


    Ok, I leave our backs to you, you better not snipe us by mistake.


    We are veterans sir. The soldiersughed a bit at their Majors small joke, as he finally started leading the melee soldiers down.


    They still had the luxury tough despite their ambitious ns of facing such arge horde of wolves. This just disyed their current confidence, as this would have been taboo to them a month ago.


    Though they took the talks casually, they were still serious as this was probably going to be their most hard-fought battle since they arrived at this forest.


    Not even their escape battle from the cats in the tunnel could rival this, as the staggering difference in the number of enemies was frightening.


    As they scaled down the hill again, rks brain was already working on overload as he thought of the right method with which he should engage the battle to make it more efficient.


    Before they got down to the base of the hill, he already had a n in mind as he led the soldiers directly to the right direction of the hill.


    This was the location that led to the rear of the beasts, he wanted to form a pincer attack with the soldiers under attack to force the wolves to a corner and finish them directly.


    The soldiers who remained at the hill were already set, as they calmly waited for the signal from their Major to engage in battle.


    About a minuteter, rk finally led his soldiers behind therge group of rampaging beasts but he did not engage immediately as he ordered his soldiers to hide behind trees.


    Why would he fight a meritless battle? He was not giving charity.


    He nned to put a call through to the leader of these soldiers,y his intentions across and negotiate thoroughly before he would even contemte being the prince charming to them.


    He leaned against the thick-skinned tree that hid him, squatted down before bringing his bag out.


    In such a chaotic battle, it would be hard to get a stable connection as he did not have the direct contact details of this man either. He had to perform some programming cheats before he could put his call across.


    After ncing at the battle for only 5 seconds, he already identified the alpha wolf of this n and the leader of this group of soldiers, so he had his priorities straight.


    He carefully brought out a small device that looked like a smartphone out of this bag. The only thing distinguishing it from a smartphone was that, unlike thetter, it had a long antenna at its top.


    He quickly used his gloved hands to extend the antennas reach, adjusting it a bit before he finally nodded in satisfaction after getting the wave frequency that he wanted.


    [Ding!! The wavelength and frequency of waves are stable. The threshold frequency of this region is already exceeded, master can connect directly and send a call across now.]


    After getting the confirmation that he wanted, he smiled before putting the call across.


    Red wavy lines fluctuated on the smart device, showing the readings of the calls proceedings.


    Though he could have done this call directly through his imnt, he already learned to minimize his imnts use as every use drew part of its energy from his body.


    This was essentially exchanging his energy for convenience, so he already learned to set a good scale of preference long ago.


    Beep!!


    Hearing the notification sound that the call finally went through, he snapped out of his daze before focusing on it. Before he activated the video call, he did another thing first.


    He adjusted his ck climbing uniform better, patted unseen dust from it, quickly checked his teeth to make sure they are sparkling white, donned a mask on his face before speaking out.


    From his many experiences, he already learned that when meeting a stranger, the first impression could do wonders. So, what better first impression was there than to act mysterious?


    After activating the video function, a flustered face suddenly emerged, filling the screen as the stone-faced man looked at his masked face alertly.


    Just like them, when he got the call and quickly deduced that these were probably other humans, he was shocked. Various thoughts crossed his head also, but he did not have the luxury of free-thinking because of his annoying opponent.


    He suppressed his doubts and answered the call, he wanted to know these neers motive, and most especially, he wanted help so he didnt have a choice.


    You are the one who called me? He asked cautiously.


    It is I.


    rk spoke calmly, as his voice suddenly sounded a few decibels deeper.


    His subordinates were already coughing blood at the side, as they barely controlled themselves fromughing out.


    Who are you? And where


    Before you talk, allow me. rk interrupted this guy in a cool manner.


    I already saw your situation and I saw that you needed help, now is not the time to talk, well talk after we rescue you.


    Though the man felt a little irked by the use of the word rescue, he kept silent as he had no choice. Then what are you waiting for? We will soon be overwhelmed. He continued anxiously.


    Not so fast, I have a few terms for you to go through. Sign them, before I can decide to help you.


    After reading through the information that was just sent to him, the man suppressed his anger, showing that he was a veteran as he answered calmly.


    I agree, just save us first.


    Inwardly, he was already cursing at this fool. Do you take me as stupid to ept such terms?


    rk easily read his mind but he didnt care, he just chuckled and answered. Iming, prepare to be saved.
