Damaged
Beyond Cure - Cannot Be Cured

"Liskarm, will you survive."

"I'm fine here! Franka, look out for the enemy next to you!"

Thanks to a warning from the Liskarm, the Franks were able to fend off and survive the Reunion warriors' attack.

"The enemy is endless..!" said Franka.

"You won't be able to break through our defenses! I'll destroy you!" sahut a Reunion soldier.

Overconfidence makes him dare to break the sword towards Franka, which is where Franka is a sword operator. He was convinced that his army could defeat Rhodes Island. To make it happen, recklessness is one of the best options. But if it is not based on logic, still reckless will only hurt him.

"Well..!! Ugh..!! A - What is it?" the soldier's attack was repelled by Franka with his sword.

"This is Thermite's sword. Is cutting included also into slashing?" said Franka.

No matter what effort they put in, no matter how much they mobilized their troops, Reunion would never win against Rhodes Island.

"Enterrifying. Medic's! Someone's hurt here! Be careful when moving them." said Franka.

"I understand!" reply to the medic.

"Amiya! How's it going in there?" ask Franka.

"I think we have a little problem here" replied Liskarm.

They fought on both sides. Let's say if the Franks were in charge of the Reunion forces in the west, then Liskarm and Amiya are currently busy clearing the Reunion forces in the east.

Franka was able to finish his part quickly. It was only natural that the enemy he had encountered was just a group of masked street warriors. Unlike the Franks, Liskarm and Amiya actually had to deal with their leader, Skullshatterer. Not a sword or a machete, but two grenade launchers equipped with bayonettes at each end.

"Franka.the leader of the enemy appears before me and Liskarm!" sahut Amiya's.

Duar, douar.. The Skullshatterer fired several of his grenades towards Rhodes Island, causing panic that could potentially destabilize their formation.

"...Where else would you hide? You're not gonna get out of here, Rhodes Island. I will crush you to dust, not even your bones will remain. You traitors.ignore the infected!"

Duar, douar.. The Skullshatterer continued to fire on Rhodes Island soldiers nonstop. For the sake of mutual salvation, there is no other choice but to flee from there.

"Oh, that one finally showed up. It doesn't sound too impressive." Franka said.

"Amiya, it looks like we.."

"Tsk. Am I running too far ahead?!"

"Franka has a problem too.. Reunion has cornered us. We have to fight. I think we're superior to them. We need to get serious."

"Liskarm, you don't understand. Whatever level of power we display, we can't let L.G.D. feel threatened."

"But we can't sit here and let them bully us! Defender, defense!"

As the Skullshatterer approaches them, Rhodes Island is gradually forced into a stalemate.

In response to the accusations and hateful questions from the Skullshatterer, Amiya gave a resounding response, signaling an imminent battle.

"Rhodes Island leader, uh. You're an infected man, but you actually helped Lungmen slaughter other infected! You have my friends' blood on your hands! Stand up and fight me!"

Duars.. The Skullshatterer fired a grenade back at Rhodes Island.

In addition to motivating the entire Reunion army, the Skullshatterer's presence had brought about many changes on the battlefield. His attack never missed, he really did not give Rhodes Island a chance to fight well.

Skullshatterer. Rhodes Island did not give up. They know what to do in a situation like this. Thanks to the experience during their stint, they were able to survive the Reunion attack.

The Reunion retreated, but not for any reason related to their combat capabilities.

On the other hand, Ch'en was told that all reinforcements had been detained with only one enemy .

"Ugh.."

"Ugh. gah.."

"Skullshatterer, are you okay?!" ask a Reunion soldier.

"Tsk. troublesome people!"

"Skullshatterer, W just said that he has completed all his tasks! He has managed to take back the target."

"W.. did he win?"

"Right, the attack was very smooth! Should we back off?"

"...Send the sign to Talulah."

"Good!" the soldier then fired a flare into the sky to indicate that the task had been completed.

"We're backing down." said Skullshatterer. But before leaving, Skullshatterer turned around and said, "Hm.. Rhodes Island's a coward. If one day we meet again, it'll be your execution day."

"Reunion.. backwards?" Amiya looked confused.

"They backed off quickly. Something must have changed from their plan. Despite all this talk, they know how to escape" Franka said.

"...Something is not right" Amiya said.

"Did you say.."

"From the beginning we weren't their goal" the doctor said.

"They're here just to stop us! If that's the case, oh no, L.G.D. is in danger! We must help Madame Chen now! Franka, call the scouts to get back here now! Liskarm, try calling Mrs Chen!"

...*****...

Knowing that W managed to take Misha out of L.G.D's hands, this really made Chen very upset. Many times Chen called for Rhodes Island reinforcements, but they never came. The reason why Rhodes did not send reinforcements was because they were busy confronting the Reunion forces.

"Where is the special operations division? Their reinforcements should be here by now!" Chen looked upset.

"We just got word that they were stopped by Reunion!" replied one of the L.G.D Agents.

"How is it possible? Reunion is a gang of fucked-up criminals!"

"And they only face one enemy."

"....." hearing this, Chen fell silent, "Unless.."

Seriate.
