Chapter 366 366: Massacre.

The days passed very quickly, Leo and his family had no time to bother with the different things that were affecting the business. They were busy pampering the two children, who despite being sensible have turned very moody. Some days they would go to sleep very early, and some days they would not sleep at all.Leo and Snow had to up their games and they were tired to the core of their souls. Lily sighed when she saw her father having big dark circles under his eyes. When she saw him cooking lunch for her, she said, "Baba, you should go sleep. Aunt and Grandma can handle the twins today. You have not slept peacefully for the past week."

Leo smiled at her and then he found that the rest of the family has began to push him for sleep as well. After a few minutes, Leo did go to bed and fell asleep. However, he didn't know that when he was sleeping, a war was brewing in the mountains.

...

In the mountains, cold has come early and the skies were covered in mute gray clouds, while the blizzard howled through the void. There were a bunch of shadows moving through the woods around the research center. These men were the members of the alpha team from the Eagle Nation, they were the best of the best who have come over to handle the task of killing all the researchers and then steal the data.

The leader of the team spoke on the communication device, "Begin!"

The tech expert of the team took out a small tab and tapped the screen a few times before he said, "Go!"

This man was responsible for disabling all the alarms and the cameras in the research center. As soon as he gave the signal, the team members all dashed through the woods in a single line formation. They had extracted all the blueprints of this establishment and they have been rehearsing the incursion and attack for the past seven days.

They barged through the doors, but suddenly, the leader called them all to stop. Everyone was an expert, they knew that something was wrong, because they didn't find the guards that were supposed to be posted here. Before the captain of the team could even warn is people to retreat, they heard a series of sharp whistles, and then felt a strong sting on their napes.

When they inspected, they found that the enemy has hit them all with a strong tranquilizers. The last thing that the captain recalled was a bunch of robots walking out from various spots in the distance. Followed by this, he heard a calm voice beside him, "This was easier than taking a piss."

…

When the people regained consciousness, they were shocked to see that they were now strapped to a few chairs. They were naked and their was dim light in the surroundings, and the worst part was the head that was buzzing.

However, as they regained control of their bodies, they regained their calm expressions as well. At this moment, a door opened on the side of the room and a tall figure walked in with steady steps. They could not see the man clearly, but the man was standing several paces away.

A calm voice sounded, "Welcome to the Utopia Dungeon Gentlemen. You have been quite brave, I must say, charging into a foreign land and then try to attack the most crucial research center in that nation. I applaud your courage and loyalty to follow the orders, but I spit in the faces of your leaders who sent you to your deaths."

The people didn't say anything and the man in the shadow smiled as he replied, "Do you think that with the transmitter inside your ass and skin will get those old golden dogs to catch a scent of you? Well, I apologize, perhaps you don't realize your situation, we have already removed those trackers and you will not feel pain."

This sentence shocked them, but the entire squad was ready to die at the moment's notice, so they calmed down again. The man in the shadow continued, "You people thought that we would just let you waltz in, kill the people and then have you guys go back and dance in victory, just like that? Well, have a look at what is going on in the international galore."

A screen lit up on the wall and the man in the shadows walked to the side, before a footage from the international media was being played. The Secretary of defence in the Eagle country was holding a press meet and the reporters were clamoring to ask him a question about various things regarding the attack, to which, the Secretary promptly expressed refusal.

Finally someone from the Clover Nation channel stood up and asked if the Clover Nation has received the proof that the insurgents were all from the Eagle Nation? The secretary nodded and said, "Yes, we have received the documents that claim such things, but we are conducting an investigation and would be replying to the Clover Nation with sincere honesty. If the people linked to this are really from our army, we will take severe actions against them. However, I assure you, the government has no connections to this."

The people showed no emotion and the man said, "You have been unconscious for the past three days, and just to inform you, we are not a military association. We are simply the guards hired by the Cardinal Group. You all are being held by a private company and so we have no need to follow and comply with the rules and regulations of the military conventions."

The captives were stunned once again, and the man said, "Oh, yes, we have plans to take action against the ones who were involved in this, but it seems that the President is not someone we can touch, for now. So, we have decided to punch your entire nation in the guts."

Another clip started, and some pictures were displayed on the screen and the people shivered. Not in rage or fear, but in sheer disgust. The man in the shadow said, "The leaders that you hold in such a high regard are nothing but a bunch of twisted perverts who don't care about anyone else or anything else.

Do you see how your president is frolicking around with those girls? Do you know they are all under age at the moment these pictures were clicked? Do you see that so called great scientist? Your nation breeds parasites who leech off of efforts made by people like you.

Just because you all dress in a uniform doesn't make you a soldier, but it is just a cover that you have taken to hide the bestiality in your nature. You are just sophisticated well trained dogs retained by these bastards, nothing else."

The man took a deep breath to calm the rage boiling in his heart and he said, "Since you are all beasts, let you be on your way. You are not an endangered species, we are also beasts in clothing, however, we don't tolerate trash like you."

Then a few people came inside, and what unfolded was nothing but a scene taken from the hell.

…

Leo was sitting in his study, and Julian was sleeping in his arms, this little one had started to act clingy all of a sudden and Lily had no other options but to take him along. Markus sent out a few clips that Leo watched with muted audio, and then he said, "You can release these to the people in the western ministry, and do it tomorrow, when the Clover Nation is going to hold the Parade for the republic day. The new weapons and the forces would be displayed in full vigor. The military is on board with the disclosure."

Markus nodded and then the connection was terminated. Julian wiggled a bit and Leo rocked him gently before standing up and leaving the study.

…

The President of the Eagle Nation was sitting in the situation room with his fists clenched tightly. He was not alone, there were many people, the top brass of the nation and even some of the economy super giants. The clip was a video record of the torture suffered by the men from the Alpha Team, and how these dozen or so men have all confessed to their various war crimes committed on the order of the Secretary Of Defense.

The room was silent, none of the people felt pity or rage after watching the scene, they were all thinking about saving their own necks. The clip ended and a calm voice said, "If you wish to live well, keep your heads down, and don't eye what isn't yours. The next time you try something like this, Mister Kruum, we will retaliate in kind and believe me when I say, you will not live to survive that."

Mister Kruum was the President of the Eagle Nation, he clenched his fists and asked, "General, when can we go to war with the Clover Nation?"

The people were shocked and they all turned to look at the General who said, "Sir, the clover nation will not lose. Their military prowess is now at least five decades ahead of us."

This shocked people, and then the footage from the Republic parade was shown which drowned all the dreams of retaliating they had.
