Chapter 25: Northern Peninsula.

Samurai Around The World #25.

“Why do we leave for Norway first? And why not complete the mission to defeat the Silhouette network in the Soviets?” I was curious about Allan.

“You already know the power and influence of ‘The Alpha Wolf from Barat’ that you faced back then? Very powerful and terrible, right? It's just the strength of someone from their network, indeed we do not know someone else from that network. And from the information I got, the Lux Magnum was the weakest Silhoutte network of the others. So it would be best if we beat Lux Magnum first,

and beat the more powerful network later.” Allan answered my question.

“Hmmmmmm true too yes. Yes, just continue your search for information, I will accompany.”

Allan continued his search for information. Because I couldn't help much, and rather than trouble Allan, I just accompanied beside him Allan while looking at him for information in his way.

1 hour later, because I had just been quietly accompanying Allan, I was sleepy and fell asleep in the chair I was in. And time passed, and it did not feel 1 hour walk after I fell asleep, Allan also managed to find the information he was looking for.

“Hei, Girou. You don't sleep mulu. Have you met the information.”Allan woke me up while shaking my body.

I was shocked when Allan woke me up.

“Hah!? Any information you find, Allan?” I asked in shock to Allan.

“This information, Girou.” Allan showed me his laptop.

And the others came closer to me and Allan. We all saw the information Allan found. In the ‘ information found’ Allan mentions in detail about the strength of a small criminal organization that is under the auspices of Lux Magnum. And mentioned where their main base and the influence of the territory of each group. I also read a little wonder, because how Allan can find information like this that contains complete and possibly reliable data.

Because of that curiosity, I asked Allan.

“Wow, in this information contains very complete data from Lux Magnum. How did you find this information, Allan?” manya curious.

“Again I broke into their system, only this time it was different, Girou. For some time ago, I could only touch the first line of their information system, for which I can currently touch the second line of information Lux Magnum.” Answer Allan.

“Wouldn't it be more dangerous if you touched their second line, Allan? You're the first line, your important data is almost leaked. How are you doing this second one?”ask Mr. Mark who looks a little panicked.

“Take it easy, Mr. Mark. I used a different way to sabotage their system this time. I've got ID numbers from people who are allowed to enter this second line. I took one of their IDs and used it to get this information. It does take a little while, but by using it, I can get information more safely and more importantly, no important data leaked.” Allan answered Mr. Mark's question.

“Ya already then, can I ask for a photocopy of the information, Allan?” ask Mr. Mark to Allan.

“Can, Mr. Mark. Just a minute Iphotocopying first.” Allan stood up from his seat.

Allan also walked to the printer while carrying his laptop to photocopy the newly discovered data.

And soon after, Allan also brought his photocopied paper. Allan put the papers he carried in front of us. The papers Allan carried were quite numerous and piled up.

“It feels like the information wasn't this much, Allan. What do I bring the rest, Allan?” ask Mr. Mark to Allan.

“I brought along a map of its influence, I also photocopied all the data or information related to Lux Magnum. So it is natural that the paper is also a lot.” Answer Allan.

information that Allan found. I got a paper containing the possibilities where the main headquarters or basecamp of the Lux Magnum, actually the clue had been delivered by Joseph several times ago before we left here.

“There are 4 routes of entry of illegal goods, west east north and south. One of the tracks is Norway, there is a bit of a strange pattern going on in the illegal goods trade routes in the south. When entering Norway, the goods are divided into 2 more lines, North and south. While in the east and south west, the goods only enter from one lane or gate. And it is certain that the goods that entered the southern region after the Silhouette was under the influence of Lux Magnum. Means the possibility that there is for now is their headquarters are at the northern and southern ends of Norway.” he said at that time.

And from the information paper I read it seemed to further strengthen Joseph's previous opinion. On the paper it contains fleeting photographs showing large fortresses standing in the middle of the forest. But the photos on the paper looked like a huge abandoned fortress. I was a little hesitant to see it too. I asked Allan for that information.

“Photos of this huge fortress seem to be abandoned, Allan. What does it mean here?” I asked Allan out of curiosity.

“I thought it was their disguise so no one would think that the fort was no one. Almost the same as the disguise of the fort owned by Mr. Zussman and his troops. Yes indeed I have not been able to confirm it about the disguise.”Answer Allan.

It makes sense why they wear such disguises. And after I looked again, it turned out that the shape of the forest contour of the two fortresses was different. For the first fort, it is in a forest that has a tall towering tree and the distance of one tree with another tree is quite wide. While the second fortress, located in the forest that has a tree that is not as high as the first fortress forest, but the distance of one tree with another tree close together. This was also once conveyed by Joseph at that time about the differences in forests in the north and south.

“....The first basecamp photo I think is in the south, not the north. Because the 2 photos have different forest contours. Well, the forest in the North area has a towering tree and has a distance between one tree with another. While the forest in the southern area that has a tree that is not high enough but the distance between one tree with another tree that is close together and hinges.”

Yes, perhaps again Joseph's predictions and analysis are correct.

While we were all analyzing the various information that Allan had found, Mr. Mark suddenly exclaimed.

“I've met Lux Magnum's weakest subordinate organization of the others. Take a look at this paper I marked.” Mr. Mark handed us his paper.

In the section of the paper marked by Mr. Mark, it is written the name of the organization called ‘Darkness’. On the paper was also written an area of power from Darkness that was quite small compared to the others. They ruled over the northern peninsula of Norway, and bordered directly with Finland and the Soviet Union. From the photos obtained by Allan, the headquarters of Darkness has a size that is quite large and sturdy. And actually guarding the northern peninsula region of Norway is not just Darkness, but there is one more organization called ‘Moon Devil’. Darkness and the Moon Devil were working together to guard the northern border region of Norway, only that the Moon Devil had a greater realm of power compared to Darkness.

“Hmmmm Darkness yes name, indeed their territory is smaller than others. But if we attack him first, will ‘Moon Devil’ interfere as well? They are one area. It would be troublesome if the Moon Devil interfered as well.” Joseph asked Mr. Mark.

“Maybe they will interfere too. That was definitely because they were in one territory of power. Maybe if we want to attack one of them, we have to divert the power of the other. So we attack from 2 attack fronts, but for the Moon Devil front it is only as a fraud. Our main goal is Darkness.” Answer Mr. Mark confidently.

“Hmmmmmm that can be a good strategy, but for now our troops are not much. We also do not know more about their military strength. It could be that their power is greater than we thought. Or for the worse possibility, we were defeated from both fronts of the attack. What if it happens like that?” ask Mr. Felix.

“Hmmmmm, I'm still in doubt. It's almost the same if we attack other small organizations. Because almost all of their organizations have equal power. Even if one appears weak, it will be supported by other, more powerful organizations. So yes it is actually the same.” Mr. Mark replied with a slight lethargy.

The middle room suddenly remained silent. Everyone was still at a loss thinking of the right strategy to defeat Lux Magnum and her subordinates.

“Actually it's okay if we attack Darkness first. Although they have ‘Moon Devil’ behind them, their organization center is far from the center of the Moon Devil organization and far from the center of the Lux Magnum organization itself. If we try to attack other small organizations, then it will be more difficult because it is not too far away from the center of Lux Magnum. What's wrong with trying first?” I broke the silence of the room.

“Ya makes sense too. But we don't know much about Darkness itself. Indeed, their place is remote away from the center of Lux Magnum and there the weather is quite extreme. And because of that, it's hard for them to ask for help from other organizations, is that what you mean, Girou? And we're getting easier to attack?” ask Allan.

I also nodded.

“Yes is true in theory, we can attack them easily because of those extreme conditions and temperatures, if we bring enough troops and weapons to attack them. But for now, our troops and weapons supply are few, plus we are not used to fighting on such extreme terrain. Surely they already know the gap and the way to overcome the extreme weather. So we have to set up another strategy to deal with the extreme cold. How to cope with that extreme weather and temperature?”
