Zayn's eyes widened as his jaw dropped in surprise.
Hades was not any better either. He looked petrified, and a disbelief look was evident on his face.
All the mercenaries' faces turned ashen, and they were in utter despair.
Many of them dropped their weapons, held their heads in disbelief while taking a few steps backwards, and mumbled, "No...
No..."
But there were also a few people with violent characteristics who were unwilling to meet their end in the foreign land, lost their mind, and became frenzied.
In shock, they glared at Nathan angrily and chided in Spanish: "This guy must have attracted all these troops. We could use him as a hostage. If they don't let us go, we shall die together."
Finished speaking, this bunch of madmen picked up their submachine guns and pointed at Nathan, trying to take him as a hostage.
But at this moment, dozens of snipers fired simultaneously from the opposite hillside.
The few fanatic mercenaries who tried to harm Nathan were headshot, and numbers of headless corpses fell to the ground.
The facial expressions of the rest of the mercenaries including Hades changed drastically at the sight.
Hades bawled, "Sniper! My god! How many snipers did you deploy that you can headshot dozens of men at once?"
Nathan replied calmly, "Not much, about a thousand of them."
What? Thousand?! Does that mean almost all of us have been aimed by those snipers all this while?
