After finalizing the combat plan once again, Fania and Jessica sprinted all the way to the high ground east of the Villa. Fania quickly set up her sniper rifle and aimed at the Villa, completely visible to the White Wolf Company members inside.
Jessica: "Commander, we have reached the designated location and are on standby."
Ethel: "Received. As soon as Lucy and Lyle reach their positions, commence the operation immediately. Remember, be quick and do not let the McDougal Gang interfere."
Fania: "Understood."
Lucy: "Hey, Commander, Lyle and I have arrived. Awaiting orders."
Ethel: "Received. Remember, as soon as you hear gunfire, launch your drones immediately to destroy the Villa's helicopter and alarm system. You must be fast."
Lucy: "Understood."
Ethel: "Fania, on my mark. Three, two, one, fire!"
At Ethel's command, Fania pulled the trigger, shooting a White Wolf Company member in the crosshairs right between the eyes. Seeing their companion fall, the other White Wolf Company members immediately scrambled for cover and tried to call out to the fallen comrade on the ground.
White Wolf Company Member: "Unidentified hostile force detected. End this fight as fast as possible."
On the other side, hearing the gunfire, Lyle eliminated the nearby Scavs to cover Lucy as she activated the drone. While the White Wolf Company members were distracted, Lucy piloted the drone toward the landing pad to destroy the aircraft.
Inside the Villa, Dopp was sipping tea. When he first heard the gunfire, he assumed it was just local Scavs fighting over supplies and didn't think much of it—until the White Wolf adjutant rushed upstairs to report to him.
Adjutant: "Mr. Dopp, you need to head to the landing pad and get out of here right now. I'm going to pull the alarm and call for backup. Those Octopuses are here!"
Hearing this, Dopp nearly had a cerebral hemorrhage. Ever since he started working with White Wolf, he had been forced to fight on the front lines every single day; he felt like he could go toe-to-toe with Ajax now. He thought back to when he used to work with Black Gold International—back then, everyone's weapons and armor were leagues ahead of the White Wolf Company. Besides, Black Gold was made up of actual regular military soldiers. But damn it, the White Wolf Company was a complete mixed bag of lowlifes, with regular soldiers and hardened criminals lumped together! When he cooperated with Black Gold in the past, all he had to do was stand in the back and talk tough; he never had to throw himself into battle. Now look at him—he had to upgrade his own gear just to stay alive.
Dopp: "If I hadn't gotten mixed up in this mess in the first place, would I have to go on the run every few days?"
Adjutant: "Mr. Dopp, the situation is extremely critical. Stop daydreaming! If this keeps up, all our men outside are going to be wiped out."
Dopp: "Get me out of here right now! Also, sound the alarm and call for reinforcements!"
Hearing this, the adjutant ran over to pull the alarm, but the outside drone blasted it to pieces before he could touch it. The adjutant drew his gun in defense, but by that time, Lucy was already maneuvering the drone to destroy the aircraft.
Ethel wasn't sitting idle either. She and Muse infiltrated the Villa through a gap in the structure.
Ethel: "Muse, put on your gas mask and follow my lead."
Muse put on the mask, nodded at Ethel, and then the two of them tossed several gas canisters right toward where the White Wolf Company members were taking cover.
"Explosion in range, run!"
It was already too late. Ethel had timed the throw so the canisters would detonate instantly, preventing anyone from escaping before the gas could deploy. As the toxic gas flooded the area, the White Wolf Company members were brought to tears, coughing violently as if they wanted to cough up their own lungs.
Dopp's Lackey: "You're done for."
"I'm going to crush you!"
"Why aren't you running anymore?"
Ethel: "Muse, put a bullet right in the crotch of that Scav who said he was going to crush us."
Muse: "Understood, sister."
With that, Muse seized the right moment and fired five consecutive shots straight at the crotch of the screaming James Lopez. James Lopez dropped to his knees, clutching his crotch and wailing in agony.
Once his screaming had mostly subsided, Ethel put James Lopez out of his misery.
