“Number 7 and Number 8, you two go and occupy a vantage point. Your first task is to deal with the four people at the door, after which you are allowed to fire your bows freely in support.” Chris started giving out orders in a low voice.

“Understood.” Two people came out from the group immediately. Number 7 and Number 8 had archery skills just below Chris’s level. They both carried a recurve bow and a quiver of arrows. Using their years of hunting practice, they both silently climbed up a tree in the courtyard.

The members of the War Wolves were not allowed to call each other by their real names and had to refer to each other by Numbers.

Soon Chris heard the sound of a frog which was the signal and understood that Number 7 and Number 8 were ready, and he continued to assign tasks.

“Number 5 and Number 6, you two sneak in and cooperate with Number 7 and Number 8 to deal with the four people at the door.”

“Understood.” Two more people came out from the group. They took out the military knife strapped to their legs, put it in their mouth, and then cautiously climbed the wall and got in.

“The rest of you, wait and rush in with me. Kill everyone except the target.” Chris said, drawing out the sword from his back.

“Understood.” Number 2 took out a sword and a large round sword. He was essentially the tank of the team.

Number 3 and Number 4 both took out two crossbows and held one in each hand. They also had a military knife in their straps.

Chris gripped the hilt of his blade tightly. His eyes were fixed on Number 5 and Number 6. His heart calmed down when he saw them successfully get behind two of the guards without being noticed.

Number 5 and Number 6 both held a military knife in their hand. They quickly covered the guards mouth with one of their hands and used the other to stab the guards’ heart with their military knives. They even twisted the knives to make sure they were dead.

Whoosh!

Before the other two guards could react, 2 long arrows flew out of the trees and went into the neck of the guards, killing them instantly.

Number 5 and Number 6 caught the corpses and put them down gently. They then gestured to where Chris was.

“Attack.” Chris was the first one of the four people to get out and rush into the courtyard. They met up with Number 5 and Number 6 and the six people sneaked inside the courtyard.

They only walked for a few dozen steps before they saw 8 guards chatting. Chris made a gesture and they immediately spread out.

“They’re partying again, leaving us out here in the cold wind. They won’t even give us some hot soup to drink.”

“Exactly. They make so much money, but won’t even raise a tiny bit of salary and just keep telling me to beat people up.”

“Fuck, Copper smelling merchants. I’ve helped them kill so many people but they always just give me a few copper coins.”

“I’ve heard that this time, we have to kill that nob- uh….” The voice suddenly stopped speaking. His neck had been pierced by a short arrow.

“Wha… uh…”

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Before the guards could react, four people had been shot in the neck.

Number 5 and Number 6 quickly shot out four arrows and killed four people. There were only four people left, who were quickly dealt with by Chris, Number 5, and Number 6.

Chris shook his sword to shake off the blood on it. He had just killed two people instantly: one had been cut in the head and the other had been cut in the neck.

The whole process only took two seconds. Chris led his teammates forward and silently killed the guards in the courtyard.

“Who?”

Whoosh!

A sudden shout of panic rang out. A long arrow followed, killing the guard who made the shout.

“We’re exposed, so let’s use brute force.” Chris shouted. He charged forward with his sword.

They hadn’t expected to be exposed by a guard who had been slacking off in the grass.

In reality, they were able to hide for so long because of the carrots Lucas had brought from Earth, which had cured their nyctalopia.

More than 90% of the people in this era have nyctalopia, including the guards. Chris and his teammates didn’t have nyctalopia, which allowed them to easily assassinate many guards.

A dozen guards immediately rushed out from the inner courtyard. Chris knew that they were the last of the guards. As long as he and his teammates killed all of them, only the target would be left.

Two long arrows flew from afar and took away two people’s lives without waiting for Chris to speak.

“Kill.” Chris rushed to the guards and immediately drew a string of blood with his blade.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Four short crossbow arrows flew out. Without waiting for the guards to fall, Number 3 and Number 4 put their crossbows back and took out the military knife in their mouths and threw them at the guards, killing another two.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The battle was over just as Number 5 and Number 6 took out their swords. Most of them were killed by crossbow arrows and longbow arrows.

“These guys are so weak, aren’t they?” Number 2 said, shaking the blood off of his sword. He had killed two people tonight, but he was unsatisfied.

“Shut up. The target is inside.” Chris said in a low voice. He shook off the blood on his sword.

“Okay.” Number 2 held up his shield and entered the inner courtyard first. Chris followed closely behind. Number 3 and Number 4 had already loaded their crossbows. Number 5 and Number 6 held their sword and guarded the two.

Number 7 and Number 8 also came down from the trees. They were the last line of firing support.

This was something they learned from the military camp, called Special Tactics: Assault Method.
