Executor Of Justice

Chapter 12 - Mysterious NPC

About half an hour since Danielle transmits the message, Hector received a message from High Command about the current situation. A Dark Dragon was living here? No wonder several dark warriors were protecting this place. While a dragon doesn't belong to the direct hierarchy of the dark force, they were guardians and protectors in the old times, gaining the respect of the demons. Hector had already regrouped his team and was waiting for Ruth's team. It has been an hour since their last transmission and no sign of communication was being made. While Hector was lost in thoughts, a metal door appeared behind him and a military man's voice can be heard.

"I'm sure you're looking for a guide? I'm up for the hire."

Hector's soldiers then aimed their blaster rifles to the suspicious-looking figure. He was equipped with an infiltrator class full body armor that supports flexibility and dual blaster sub-machine guns.

"No need to fret, I'm here to offer you something generous. I'm sure the Holy Guardian understands that?"

'He knows about my status? Looks like it's better to tell the men to stay away'

"Everyone Leaves us alone."

The men hesitated at first, but upon seeing Hector's gaze, they complied with the order and left them alone.

"I'm sure you must wonder what I am. I am neither your opponent nor ally. I am merely a spectator of this game,"

"Looks like you are telling the truth."

" You can even tell your friends hiding to come out."

'Since he's a neutral NPC, he won't do anything bad'

Several figures can be seen dropping from the ceilings. They were Hector's companions. Officially, they are citizens temporary used by the Security Bureau to assist them in their case.

"You have made good friends. May your friendship last forever"

"I never said I wouldn't give you one."

'That amount of XP isn't worth the effort, but the equipment sure looks promising.'

"I don't have all day kid. If you don't choose, I will find someone else, maybe your enemy."

'This NPC sure knows how to make threats'

{I say just accept it, it's a good chance to level up}

{Yeah, we can't let those demons get away}

{I agree, this is what we fight for right? }

Hector sighed as he saw his followers persuading him. What they were saying was true, there will only be benefits to the receiver.

'Maybe I'm just overthinking things. I need to at least reach a higher tier to take control of the politics'

'A Skill Book as a Deposit Reward? This is not that bad.'

r

The man had long dissipated since Hector accepted the request. His friends were talking nonstop about the skill book.

"Hey, should I use this item?"

"It looks special. Maybe we should ask Hecto first?"

"Don't wait for me, just use it already."

"If you say so."

"Dang, these are some fine skills. I'm jealous of yours though, it's stronger."

"Nonsense, they're meant for different purposes."

Hector wanted to shut their mouth but came to a conclusion he might not be that different from them. A normal human being would be excited about playing a game, especially a virtual reality one except the part this is real. The special thing about their character is that their job supports all type of skills, even mastering them is a small feat and easier when compared to the experts.

A loud buzzing sound came to their ears, it was the Global Task Force's combat helicopters, many soldiers were sitting on the edge of the helicopters, ready to be deployed at any time. These were the standard soldiers of the Security Bureau, as there were no units specialized in eliminating dragons. Like any other member of the Global Task Force, they wore standardized black suit models that protect them from all kinds of environment. The only thing to specify what unit a soldier is in is by looking at the code color insignia attached to the right arm. It looks like a small inflated small colorized balloon with black writings on it. Since they were the standard general unit, they didn't have any of those. One of them unarmed escorted by two armed soldiers moved in front of Hector.

"Greetings, I'm Commander Tiago. I'm sure you've received the news already. "

"Yes I have, you'll be assisting me in my first official operation"

"It is my honor to serve under your command. What great plans do you have?"

"I'll need your men to create a S.A.R team for the two missing teams. They should still be alive. Create a defensive perimeter around the area and raise minimum clearance level to Restricted"

"Understood, I'll organize the men."

Hector's friends were dumbfounded. Their parents usually were very respectful towards their faction military officers, yet he simply talks with them casually. Just who is he exactly? They thought he was just an officer of a special police force.

"Hey mister, shouldn't you be telling us who you are?"

"Even my dad acts very respectfully to such high figures."

"Yeah, are you some big shot here?"

Hector coughed and gazed towards a few agents to take the a.d.u.l.ts away forcefully. They weapon b.u.t.t them from behind and injected them with a serum to make them unconscious longer.

"Is this fine Sir?"

"Yup, bring them back to the base. Keep them guarded and monitored at all times."

"Yes Sir"

Knowing their behaviors, they would expose their power too easily to protect their comrades. Which is why Hector knocked ordered the men to knock them out. Two soldiers were shouting to Captain Pavo, who is sitting on one of the supply crates. They were Agent Jerry and Agent Karen from Captain Ruth's team.

"Report, what happened?"

" I..."

Before Agent Karen managed to continue her sentence, she fainted on the ground. Taking note of her body information which can be considered quite bad from the scanner, he instructed a medical trooper to take her away to the infirmary. Agent Jerry felt bad seeing his comrade-in-arms getting taken away. The Captain coughed to get him back to his senses.

"Are we going to stand all day here?"

"No sir, reporting that Captain Ruth had previously ordered us to inform Special Agent Hector about our findings, possibly another officer-grade monster. The last thing I was informed through communication was that Lieutenant Vallerie's team managed to regroup with Captain Ruth's team"

"An officer-grade monster? Why does one have to appear such a time along with a general-grade dragon?"

" Maybe they're working as a team?"

" That's impossible, while they are generally categorized as monsters, an ancient dragon don't bother meddling with mere affairs. I'm afraid they have different goals."

Hector was currently busy planning his strategy. Without any help from his friends, there was not much he can do alone. There was one feature he forgot to check, the store menu. How dumb could he have been?

'Those are some useful skills. I can give the skill books to those who have potential. I should probably enlist them. '

Holy Knight Julia was spectating Hector from the clouds. She also didn't have the power to stop an injured Lord-Grade Dragon Monster with P-5 battle power. Since the monster isn't active outside, as long as they don't provoke it, he should have time to increase his power level.
