Chapter 387 Exchanging Fire

The soldiers, under Wilmot's command, moved toward the residential area to regain control and ensure the safety of the city's inhabitants.

As the soldiers entered the residential neighbourhoods, they were met with an eerie silence that hung heavy in the air.nOVE)lB/In

Doors and windows of the buildings lining the streets were tightly closed and shuttered.

It was as if the entire area had been sealed off from the outside world.

The absence of normal daily sounds—no laughter of children playing, no chatter among neighbours, and no hum of activity gives the soldiers a sense of foreboding.

"This is giving me the creeps," one soldier muttered, his voice barely above a breath.

"Yeah, it's like a ghost town," another responded, scanning the desolate streets.

The soldiers advanced cautiously, their footsteps breaking the unnerving quiet that had settled over the area.

The hollow echo of their boots on the pavement seemed to magnify in the hushed surrounding, as if the silence itself was watching their every move.

"It's too quiet, you know," a third soldier remarked, gripping the strap of his rifle tightly.

"Keep your guard up and stay alert, soldiers." said their squad leader. He looked toward the neighbourhood, "We don't know what kind of foe—"

Bang!—

Their conversation was interrupted by a sudden burst of gunfire.

"Enemy presence! Take cover!"

The sudden crack of gunfire shattered the stillness, jerking the soldiers into immediate action.

Panic briefly flashed across their faces, but their training kicked in, and they swiftly sought cover.

Bullets whizzed by, striking nearby walls and sending dust and debris flying.

The soldiers quickly assessed their positions, trying to locate the source of the attack amid the maze of buildings and narrow streets.

"I don't see a damn thing!" one soldier exclaimed, peering over a wall.

"Same! They're good at hiding, damn it!" another soldier gritted his teeth.

Bullets continued to fly, making it impossible to discern the exact location of the secessionist forces.

Gunshots were fired, forcing the incoming secessionist rebels to halt their advance.

The newly arrived squad rushed to their position and asked, "You guys okay?"

"Not really but you came just in time. How's the other place faring?"

"It's under control," the newly arrived leader informed. "But you need to be careful. They might have taken hostages."

"Understood," the leader responded. "I'll leave you guys to deal with the other group. We're going to tackle the ones inside this building."

The leader of the newly arrived squad nodded in agreement. "Alright, but don't take too long. We need to end this before nightfall."

He glanced at the sky, realizing that the sun was beginning to dip below the horizon, casting an orange hue across the city.

The soldiers had been so absorbed in their intense firefight that they hadn't noticed the advancing twilight.

The newly arrived squad promptly moved into position, covering their comrades as they prepared to breach the building.

Meanwhile, the besieged soldiers burst into the building and began their ascent to the third floor, where they believed the secessionist fighters were holding their ground.

"Keep in mind the possibility of hostages." The leader's voice carried a tone of caution as he reminded his team.

The soldiers nodded in acknowledgement as they cautiously scoured the ground floor of the building, checking every room and corridor for any sign of secessionist fighters or potential hostages.

As they made their way toward the second floor, their footsteps echoed in the dimly lit building.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

The tension in the air rose as they approached the staircase. Weapons were raised and fingers poised on the triggers.

Bang!—

Bang!—

On the second floor, they encountered sporadic gunfire.

After a few tense minutes, the gunfire subsided and no presence of enemy was found.

The soldiers seized the opportunity to advance to the third floor.

They moved cautiously, checking each room and hallway for any signs of the secessionist fighters.
