The Returns Of The Disaster - Class HERO

Chapter 11: Night Owl

Team A retraced their steps to join up with Team D at the main gate.
“Teams B and C have most likely been eliminated. I’m going to call for
reinforcements. Guard the exit.”
The Team A leader glanced at the present members.
There were 31 of them. With 31 guns directed at the corridor, the second
Zero appeared he would be torn to shreds.
However, he suddenly realized that something was off… Hold on a second,
shouldn’t there only be 30 of us?
Beep beep!
The security panel flashed green as the gates suddenly opened.
As the guards turned back to look, their jaws dropped. There was a man
who was wearing the same uniform as them at the gate. The man began to
whistle as he pushed his cap up with a finger to reveal his face. It was none
other than Johnny.
“Bye bye.” He waved before abruptly pulling the manual lever and rolling
out as the gate clamped down.
The guards continued staring at the gate in disbelief.
The veins on Team A’s leader’s temples bulged.
“When did Zero blend in with us‽”
On the other side, Johnny rejoiced.
I’ve finally escaped!
Johnny stretched as he basked in the sunlight. The sight of the clear sky
seemed to evaporate all his worries. It was roughly 4 or 5 in the afternoon,
and Johnny could discern the silhouettes of several moons in the sky.
Some of them were even close enough for their craters to be observed!
Johnny took a deep breath. The crisp air was reinvigorating.
Since the start, Johnny had never planned on taking all the guards headon. Even though the guards had already been weakened, it might not even
matter if he were able to kill them all since they could put the entire facility
in lockdown at any point!
Then, his expression would not be that much different from the guards on
the other side of the gate.
After impersonating a Team B member to bait out Team A, Johnny had
searched around for a relatively clean set of uniform to change into before
concealing himself underneath the stairway.
The guards had failed to notice him joining their ranks as they had been
panicking.
As such, Johnny was safely ‘escorted’ to the entrance where, while they
let their guard down, he had crept towards the gate, and the rest is now
history.
It had been a huge gamble. If anything had gone awry, he would have been
torn to shreds by dozens of guns. Johnny would rather not have had to
rely on this risky plan. However, Baltar had ruined his original plan, leaving
him with no choice but to do so. It was a 50/50 all-in gamble, but there was
no other choice.
Johnny found himself in the middle of an abandoned farm. He noticed
the trails of several vehicles and traced them back to a garage where there
were several all-terrain vehicles. Conveniently, their keys were all slotted
in.
Reinforcements might appear any moment. I need to leave ASAP.
His escape was far from over. The Organization definitely would not let
him off so easily.
Johnny threw his backpack into the passenger seat and got into the
driver’s seat.
He ignited the engine and stepped on the gas pedal, intending to leave
immediately. He ran the vehicle over the electric fence and headed into the
forest.
As Johnny knew nothing about the geography of the area, he would have
to bet it all on following one direction.
…
On the Black Harrier helicopter, Mila noticed her phone ringing.
“What?” she answered, irritated.
“Commander Mila, there’s a situation. Zero has gone rogue. He's killed
Vice-commander Baltar, Professor Christian, and over 30 guards. He’s
also destroyed all the Valkyrie records in the base…”
The Team A leader was dispirited. They were definitely going to be
punished for having been useless—that went without saying. However, he
still had to swallow the bitter pill and contact the commander as they were
all trapped and needed someone to deactivate the lockdown.
Mila frowned.

“Are you kidding me? I personally conducted his brainwashing! How could
he have survived the procedure? Has he been fooling even me?” she
wondered.
Mila immediately contacted the boss to relay the news.
“Turn back right now and give chase,” ordered the boss, enraged.
“But my sister—” Mila began to argue.
“Shut up. You have no right to bargain with me.”
Mila glowered as she reluctantly ordered the pilot, “Return to base!”
“Commander Mila, the helicopter needs to land to refuel first.”
“Step on it.”
The Night Owl Squad had also received the order to return.
No. 1 was livid with rage at the guards’ pitiful appearances.
“There are sixty of you and you can’t even stop one person! Are there spies
here‽”
He was unable to believe that Johnny could have escaped alone, not
when it was impossible for himself.
The guards were terrified by his accusation. No one dared to betray the
organization, and for good reason. However, they were demoralized and
unable to talk back. They did secretly hope that Johnny could escape as it
would help their case.
“That’s enough. The boss ordered us to hunt him down,” interrupted Silver
Blade coldly.
“Hold on, the test subject team will follow,”
No. 1 was now rattled by Johnny’s combat prowess, and this frustrated
him. He felt like he needed to defeat Johnny in order to prove his worth
to the organization.
…
Night had fallen, and the night sky was decorated by numerous blue moons.
Each planet in Galaxy had a different kind of landscape and environment.
In Johnny’s previous life, there existed players who specialized in
galactic tourism. They would sell albums of beautiful scenery and
landscape from across the universe.
Unfortunately, the thick canopy blocked out nearly all the moonlight,
making it hard for Johnny to see, much less enjoy the night view.
Johnny drove carefully, fearful of crashing into a tree. The darkness was
extremely disadvantageous for him. Not only was he unable to move
quickly, the sound of his engine could also expose his location.
It’s really bad to drive at night. I’d better walk.
He stopped the car and turned off the engine, deciding to abandon it.
The silence in the forest began to set in, and he noticed that the shadows
around him resembled ghostly figures.

You have obtained Combat Biscuit x5, Mineral Water x3.

Johnny found some ration and water in the boot of the car. He stored
them inside his bag and continued on foot. As he was unable to do anything
about the trail that his car had left, he could only change his direction
slightly to throw off any pursuers.
The night was his cloak.
Although Johnny was completely exhausted, and his stamina was almost
depleted, he did not dare to stop for a break.
Suddenly, Johnny heard the sound of engines coming from behind. He
instantly sought for shelter behind a tree before peeking out to see 3 sets of
flickering headlights about 300 meters away.
He was about to creep towards a safer location when suddenly, a gunshot
pierced the night.
Johnny’s danger sense tingled, and he threw himself onto the ground.
Something grazed past his shoulder. He turned to see that the bullet had
narrowly missed him to pierce a tree ten meters away.
The three vehicles stopped, and 6 men alighted. They were were none other
than Night Owl Squad 3. The person who had fired was Silver Blade.

Six Cyclopes? Johnny was momentarily taken aback by their appearance.
Those are night vision goggles!
Johnny cursed his luck.

You have been grazed by an SWP sniper rifle! 18 damage taken!

Holy cow. Even though it was just a graze, it did as much damage as a
direct shot from a handgun!

Johnny’s face darkened.
Oh boy…
