Chapter 797
Liz put away her communicator and ran over. “I’m coming.” She rushed up next to Aria and assumed a fighting stance.
Brandon sneered and shouted, “Go.” All six of them charged forward simultaneously. Aria tilted her head to dodge the first punch, her eyes narrowing, and then she forcefully drove her right leg into the back of one guy’s knee.
The guy shrieked and his leg snapped. ‘What kind of monster is she?’ he thought, filled with terror.
Brandon’s face darkened as he lunged forward, his fingers curled like claws as he aimed straight for Aria’s throat. Aria pushed off another guy’s chest for leverage, grabbed Brandon’s wrist with her left hand, and flipped herself over in mid-air.
Brandon struck upward. However, Aria wasn’t even aiming at him. Instead, she got kicked in the gut. As she was sent flying, she tucked her knees and forcefully drove one into another guy’s temple.
The guy didn’t even make a sound. His eyes rolled back and he passed out cold on the spot. Aria landed safely but Brandon’s face darkened.
Meanwhile, Liz was being pushed back by two opponents and struggling to fend them off. Aria had already taken down two of their fighters, but her right arm had been dislocated by a powerful punch from Brandon.
She kicked the guy away and, with a calm expression, popped her dislocated arm back into place. Hidden behind a tree, Sean frowned and thought, “She is far too ruthless to herself.”
Watching this fight, he also noticed the fatal weakness of this batch of trainees. They were overly rigid in following the rules Against someone like Aria, they would lose their lives in just a few seconds.
By this time, Brandon was ready to leave. Their team had been eliminated, but he still had a shot in the individual competition. Just as he turned to go, Aria stopped him. Every move she made was a deadly strike, aimed at vital areas.
“Are you crazy?” Brandon panicked and dodged, cold sweat trickling down his back. “It’s just a competition. Do you have to fight as if you’re trying to kill me?”
“If I don’t fight to death, will you guys ever admit defeat?” Aria retorted. She threw him to the ground and locked his neck with the crook of her knee.
Brandon’s vision went dark. By the time he came to his senses, Aria was already holding his necklace. “I can still-” he began to say. But before he could finish, Aria stomped on his back, slamming his face into the dirt.
“Still want to come at me?” Aria taunted coldly, pinning him down.
He stared in utter despair as Aria took out the last fighter and then moved on to the technician. Aria took one down, and Liz seized the opportunity to take down another.
“Scout XX from Brandon’s team has been eliminated. Commander Brandon from Brandon’s team has been eliminated.”
The announcements came one after another until the very last member left. And the broadcast even made sure to state. “Brandon’s entire team has been eliminated. Repeating, Brandon’s entire team has been eliminated.”
Brandon lay there, his face ashen. ‘Why did we have to go after this supply station?’ he thought, full of regret.
Never in the competition’s history had an entire team been completely eliminated. Now, his team was about to go down in history for all the wrong reasons, and in the most humiliating manner imaginable.
Sean rubbed his temples and thought to himself, ‘Once this competition is over, I really need to rethink how I train these
kids.’

Chapter 798***
Meanwhile, Cathy and her three teammates were left completely stunned when they heard the broadcast.
“Aria and Liz… just the two of them wiped out a whole team?” Jocelyn stammered, her voice shaking.
Emily clutched her wildly beating heart. “No freaking way.”
They all knew precisely what Liz was capable of. At best, she could only deal with the two techies from Brandon’s team. ‘So that means Aria took down everyone else on her own?’ The four of them thought.
Fabian’s team heard the broadcast too. Weyne guessed and asked, “Maybe they just got super unlucky and ran into a patrol squad? What if they got gunned down?”
Fabian nodded. “A whole team getting wiped out? That’s almost impossible. They probably ran into a whole bunch of patrols
at once.”
“Security’s way tighter this year. Everyone, keep your heads down and make sure no one touches our supply station,” Fabian reminded them.
Weyne lifted his chin with a smirk. “Relax, Fabian. No one’s got the guts to come after our supply station.”
