Reborn Cave Queen of the End Times novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Moe

That single rocket finally snapped the shelter’s defenders out of their daze. They raised their weapons and joined the fight.

Most of the refugees were completely unarmed.

It was psychological warfare. The people behind the attack were betting that the shelter’s defenders wouldn’t be able to bring themselves to kill other human beings.

If the gamble paid off, they would take the shelter with little resistance.

If it failed, it didn’t matter. They would no longer have to feed the refugees, and the Karthmoor shelter would be branded a den of murderers.

But Karthmoor’s defenders knew they had no choice. They had to win.

Otherwise, they were finished.

Beckett had supplied them with weapons, and anyone with even basic firearms training had been brought to the front. Together, they opened fire on the crowd.

A storm of bullets tore through the refugees.

Countless people fell, their bodies ripped apart.

The scene was horrific.

As Beckett had feared, the defenders at the first barricade broke the moment they saw the carnage.

Some dropped their weapons and ran, shouting, “I can’t do this! I’m not killing these people! This is insane!”

The battle had been turning in Karthmoor’s favor, but the collapse of the front line changed everything.

The refugees regrouped and launched another all-out charge.

Autumn acted without hesitation.

This time, she picked up a TAC-50 sniper rifle.

The powerful rifle could hit targets from well over a mile away.

Autumn barely needed time to aim. She fired several precise shots at a suspicious group positioned behind the refugees.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every round struck its target.

The sudden attack threw the group into chaos.

The commander flew into a rage. “That bastard, Beckett! He stationed a sniper here because he knew we’d me this way! Send ten men to that position and take him out!”

“Yes, sir!”

A ten-man squad quietly slipped away from the group and began closing in on Autumn’s position.

They were professionals, and they moved fast.

But Autumn’s reflexes were just as sharp.

She spotted them long before they reached her position.

She quickly stored all her weapons in her storage space, then disappeared inside before the ten meny arrived.

When the squad reached the hollow, they searched everywhere but found no one.
