John Ackins takes a deep breath and pauses for a moment.

It was his habit to get drunk when he was thinking about something.

He shakes his head and replies.

“His nationality is America, but he's not America. He's a tough type of man to tie up by some rules. I don't know what kind of man he is. ”

John Ackins felt uncomfortable every time he remembered his vows.

There's no such thing as unconditional help in a world of recklessness these days. Moreover, no one knew why he saved himself.

He felt thankful and sorry for the vows he had dedicated without any conditions. But I was sure of one thing. I was willing to accept whatever vows demanded, as much as I saved myself with great expense and effort.

No matter how bad it is.

As John Achins's expression intensified, Gary Jackson tapped his shoulder.

“Don't give me that look, man. You'll be amazed at this. ”

Gary Jackson unfolds the folded page.

It was a page about the terms of the contract.

1. Objective: Coordinate Blackwater Hostage Rescue Operations.

2. Sponsor: Eric Prince (CEO, Blackwater).

3. Period: March 14 - May 14, 2001. For two months.

4. Remuneration: $3 million.

“What's so expensive? ”

John Ackins stares at Gary Jackson in surprise.

“Surprised that you have such a large amount? The money goes to the project director. I'd only get half a million dollars if I didn't get my vows right this time. ”

A multi-million dollar contract is the amount you will receive upon successful long term service awards.

John Ackins was the first to come across a single contract with only a handful of mercenaries.

“This is the power of Hart's SPU. ”

“SPU?”

Gary Jackson outlined the SPU. John Ackins said:

“At least I won't worry about the money. ”

“Is that so?"

As the atmosphere brightened, Gary Jackson turned the lid on the bottle and handed it over to John Ackins.

“I bought it for you. Budweiser.”

John Ackins' impression of the beer he drank during the Special Forces was crumpled.

“No matter how hard the United States tries, there are some things that can't keep up with Britain. You know what?”

“What?”

“This is it, beer! Why did you leave so many delicious English beers and bring me all this piss? ”

“Hahaha!”

They encountered a beer bottle.

Gary Jackson once had a sip of beer said:

“The wind started blowing here when he came to England. ”

“? ”

“The wind of change. The Level 3 soldiers who installed the Contributor Book began to gather around him, and Level 1 and 2 mercenaries began to gather around him. ”

“It seems to me he doesn't like swarming. ”

“Real great people don't tell you to follow yourself. People around them who recognize their values naturally come together to form groups. ”

John Ackins nods. And naturally a question arose.

‘What does he want? ’

* * *

- Ten days later. Near the Colombian capital, Bogotá, Katam Air Base.

Normally, an air base that was not free was suffered from transport aircraft from various countries.

With the help of the British government, a group arriving on a British military transport plane painted by Union Jack greets a stranger terribly close to the runway.

The bear paw mark on the outer chest caught the eye of Seowon.

The logo of Blackwater.

“The meeting is about to take place. We'll take care of the equipment. ”

It is Blackwater's style to get to the point without any dietary action, such as Tongyeong Nam, in a military operation where time is money and life. My vows were also not free here.

Following the back of the Blackwater T-shirt, five men with double-backs on their shoulders moved.

It was a big conference room about 10 minutes away.

Around 30 people sat in an iron chair inside the conference room.

People's eyes were focused. However, the vows moved on without a care.

When the males gather, the first thing you do is fight.

The dragon pulls its neck and looks around.

Seowon said quietly.

“Never mind. I don't see anyone special. ”

If that is the case, so is the vow. The dragon nods and smiles satisfactorily.

After about five minutes, three men dressed as Colombian soldiers and five Blackwater mercenaries appeared.

The butt of the vow that had been calm so far suddenly shook.

It's because he was in a group of five people who knew his face.

A man barely more than 170 centimeters tall, with muscles protruding out of his chest and forearms.

Bald, un-American, sideways eyes, maburiko.

A large forearm was engraved with a tattoo indicating he was from a Navy seal, and a holster on his side contained a Luger pistol claiming to have been used in World War II.

The vows murmur in a small voice that no one can hear.

“Ross Zachary. ”

During Blackwater, Ross Zachary, who was a commander of the same vows, frequently collided.

Neither of them fit in any way. Especially when it comes to work.

While vows sought perfection to achieve maximum results with minimal resources, Ross Zachary sought to devastate his enemies with overwhelming volume aggression.

Ross Jacquard has had more than one or two difficulties wiping out equipment that he needs to use on other teams.

I paid attention to it several times. But Ross Zachary did not even pretend to hear it.

Despite this exclusive resource, Ross Zachary's mission success rate was barely above 70 percent.

On the other hand, there were areas where he exhibited superior aptitude, and that was the art of seduction.

The customer's complaint to the head office was close to zero, as to how the client was roasted.

‘Will you be an enemy? Will you be a friend? ’

The vow watched Ross Zachary breathlessly.

A few moments later, a soldier with a glittering rank appeared under the escort of several soldiers.

The vows speak to the group.

“The look on his face and breathing suggest something big has happened. ”

The soldier makes a busy move toward the space in front of the conference room.

Where he was headed, Colombian soldiers and Blackwater mercenaries were marching in a row.

The soldier announced something to the people gathered in the conference room without saying hello.

It was Spanish, so I didn't really understand what vows meant.

However, the dragon's expression was not bad enough to understand all of the soldiers' words.

After the soldier had given his full report, the Blackwater party stepped forward and informed him of the message in English.

“Around 13: 17 five hours ago, the Colombian Regular Army invaded an emergency operation to rescue Abel Aguilar, the governor kidnapped by the FARC. However, the ruthless FARC who discovered the Colombian Special Forces on the rescue did something to assassinate Governor Abel Aguilar.

The FARC has officially rescinded negotiations for more than 15 hostages in six countries, including Senator Betankur and Senator Rojas. Blackwater will wait until the Colombian government's position is settled. Today's scheduled meeting has been cancelled. Please return to your listings and rest until further notice. ”

All of a sudden, the conference room turned into a wasteland.

Mercenaries from all over the world were having conversations exchanging information they didn't know what to do.

The vows made an immediate decision.

“The only information I have here is obvious. Let's go to the lodge!”

The five took a step backwards with a loud conference room.

* * *

As soon as he unpacked his belongings, the vows convened a meeting.

He first asked John Ackins for his opinion.

“We don't know if it was premeditated or if it just happened. But I can assure you that all of our plans have been foiled by this incident. ”

The four nod in John Achins' opinion.

The data obtained prior to leaving the UK showed that the FARC demanded the payment of 15 hostages:

1. Recognition of ownership of FARC's territories.

2. Release of FARC prisoners detained in the Colombian army.

3.20 million euros.

It was an unacceptable condition.

The Colombian government then stepped up to the negotiating table and together with the United States planned a hostage rescue.

I didn't understand the vows.

“Why has the Colombian government gone so far with a calm rescue plan? ”

John Ackins answered without hesitation.

“I investigated because the Uribe government is in crisis because of the recent bribery scandal. The public opinion is overwhelmed by a vote of confidence in the president. The Uribe regime had to issue a nuclear bomb in order to solve the current situation. The rescue of Betankur was the most desirable card for phase change. ”

The dragon said.

“What a quick meal. ”

John Ackins nods.

“The difference between a politician and a soldier. The closer we get to the crisis, the more calm our soldiers are, while politicians roll their feet in haste. It's not like they're wasting away every second of their lives. ”

Two Level 1 mercenaries only listen to three people with their eyes widened.

So far, it has been enough to act according to orders.

When instructions were given to protect someone and hit the target, only the task was performed accordingly. But level 2 mercenaries are discussing the political situation in Colombia.

Is that really necessary? on the one hand, it looked like it belonged to level 2 because it analyzed and prepared like that.

Seowon asked the two of them a question.

“Did you hear that? So what do we do now? ”

Two mercenaries who were caught stealing something and drinking water like a man who could hear sand suddenly asked a flying question! I coughed with a loud voice.

The dragon patted them on the back and said:

“The boss isn't asking you for answers. I'm just curious about what people think, so feel free to say it. ”

A man in his early 40s named Harry opened his mouth.

“We have not been given any authority, including operational command. In a limited situation like this, it's better to just sit back and wait for instructions than the Americans said. ”

The dragon said.

“Bingo! What unit are you from? ”

“I'm from the SAS training ground. ”

“I knew it!!! ”

I lost strength from the shoulders of the two men who were so nervous about the dragon's overload.

Everyone fell asleep at dawn.

Seowon quietly got up from his bed.

Stranger times, stranger spaces, strangers.

Under these circumstances, it's best to follow what Harry just said.

However, the vows did not intend to follow a straight line.

Walking the right path is not his way.

A vow dressed in black held a triple club in one hand.

A sneaking suit taken from ninjas.

The new brotherhood of the vow slipped into the darkness.
