Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1037

Since the cave was a highly defensive location to be attacked, the mercenaries were rather laid back. There was also plenty of food and wine inside the cave. Besides, they were paid very handsomely to guard this easy spot, so this had caused them to lower their guards.

Naturally, there was a disadvantage with employing mercenaries as they all had their own self-interests at heart, producing a group lacking team spirit. As soon as something went wrong, the situation would get out of hand in no time.

Richard glanced at a drunk soldier coming his way who then greeted him. He greeted back in the same hoarse voice before the soldier gave him some alcohol, complaining that the new batch of alcohol was awful.

Thanking him with a smile, Richard continued walking. His aim was not to get alcohol but rather to find the electrical sources. Finally, he stopped at a crossroads and stared at a door located there for a while before he walked over and knocked on it.

Someone opened the door before Richard said to him, “Fresh booze for delivery.”

The man inside immediately went on alert mode. He was in charge of the personnels stationed here and was responsible for all the surveillance equipment here. He was sure that he had never seen a guy with such facial features working here before.

In just the split second that their gazes met, Richard made the first move by hitting the man on the head. Before the person could even react, he had entered the generator room and locked himself in from the inside.

“Who are you?” The man bellowed while reaching for his gun, but Richard was faster than him. In order to stop the man from pulling the trigger, Richard sent a few punches his way. Since the man was already weakened by the initial attack, the consecutives punches made him all dizzy. as the final attack was aimed at his carotid artery by the bottle that Richard broke.
