Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 921 Sammer International Corporation
Robin changed into casual clothes and appeared in downtown Pristina...

With ample funding and clear intelligence, Robin easily located the 'White Whale' and followed him all the way from the party back to the hotel.

To conduct close-up reconnaissance, Robin disguised himself and entered the hotel, booked a room at the front desk, and then went to the coffee shop in the lobby and ordered a coffee.

As an experienced soldier, the first thing Robin did upon entering the hotel was to observe the surrounding area...

While I was having coffee, a group of twelve people walked into the hotel and stayed at the front desk for a few minutes.

Soon after, Robin saw 'Moby-Dick's' assistant take the elevator to the lobby, talk to the newcomers, and then invite two of them into the elevator.

The ten people left in the lobby began to disperse in twos and threes...

The two sat on a sofa in the corner of the lobby, from which they could see all the people coming and going in the lobby.

The remaining eight people split up; three went to the hotel's back door, while the other five returned to the car.

Robin took a sip of his strong espresso, staring at the numbers on the elevator screen. After confirming that the 'White Whale' should be on the 8th floor, he took his room key and walked to the hotel entrance, asking a waiter if there were any interesting restaurants nearby.

After receiving a reply, Robin handed over a dollar tip and then walked in the direction the waiter had indicated.

As Robin passed the convoy, he smiled politely at the men smoking by the cars, then glanced inside and noticed people sitting inside...

This group doesn't consist of 12 people, but rather 20.

If we include the eight bodyguards who originally accompanied 'White Whale', then the number of armed personnel around him reaches 28.

Robin was an exceptionally skilled professional soldier; he was very sensitive to the plight of his own kind…

From their actions, their positions, and even the choice of vehicles and the number of people inside, it's clear that the newcomers are very professional.

As Robin passed by the convoy of people, he held his phone in his right hand at his side. When he reached a restaurant near a hotel, he went in, found a seat, opened his photo album, selected a few clear photos, and sent them out.

Robin soon received a call from the mountain eagle...

"What? Abandon the surveillance?"

Looking at the information Li Chengji had sent him, Shan Ying on the other end of the phone said in a deep voice, "Those newcomers are Sammer International's security team. If you get too close, you'll be easily discovered."

You can stay at the hotel for one night, as long as you make sure the 'Beluga' gets on the bus tomorrow morning.

The arrival of a new recruit indicates that 'White Whale' has sensed something. These guys are extremely cunning, so we must confirm he's in the vehicle before executing the attack plan.

Robin paused for a moment, then said, "Samor International? The Samor International that was founded during the Iraq War?"

The man on the other end of the phone, Mountain Eagle, was also hearing about this company for the first time. He hadn't expected Robin to seem to know more about it than he did, so he smiled and said, "Since you know about it, you should be more careful. From what I know so far, the people at Sammer International are all elites, and the company itself is not to be trifled with."

Robin took two deep breaths and said, "I understand..."

I will confirm the location of the 'Beluga Whale' as you requested!

After hanging up the phone, Robin stared at the convoy in the distance, muttering to himself, "Samor International, I didn't expect to run into you guys here..."

…………

The mountain eagle was unaware of Robin's thoughts. Sending Robin to Pristina was originally intended as a double insurance policy, since even crows aren't omnipotent and professional personnel were needed to conduct close reconnaissance to confirm the identity of the 'white whale'.

People like this have to have some special methods to get to where they are today, and Mountain Eagle doesn't want to make a mistake on this issue.

Moreover, it was clear that Robin made new gains the moment he arrived in Pristina. The photos he took first confirmed to Mountain Eagle that 'Beluga' had already sensed the danger, and secondly, they let Mountain Eagle know that this guy had found a group of new recruits for his own safety.

And these newcomers are no ordinary people...

The mountain eagle, perched atop a small hill, lowered its binoculars and asked the somewhat serious-looking camel beside it, "Is that Samor International very powerful? You seem a bit serious..."

Camel's eyes were fixed on the Kosovo Liberation Organization's 'farm' in the distance. He kept scribbling in a notebook as he spoke in a deep voice, "Samor International was the first international military services company established after the US launched the Iraq War. Previously, these kinds of companies were all registered in Britain. It was only after the Iraq War that large military services companies like Samor International started to spring up everywhere..."

To save on compensation payments, make the death toll look better on paper, and reduce complaints from the Army, the Pentagon officials outsourced many dangerous missions to companies like Sammer International.

Sammer International's main business is international security. They provide services to Iraqi politicians and businessmen, as well as American politicians and businessmen traveling between the two countries.

I provided personnel training services for Sammer International at a training camp in Los Angeles. This company has extremely high requirements for the quality of its combat personnel, and they have a professional security and espionage training system in place...

They are not the large security service company that outsiders believe them to be. In fact, they use their geographical advantage to "kidnap" a large number of high-ranking officials and wealthy people in the Middle East through close-knit services, steal secrets through various means, and even coerce their clients to serve the United States.

Samor International has a special team that not only provides security but also acts as commercial espionage or intelligence.

Mountain Eagle had just read some information about Samor International that Li Chengji had sent him. Hearing Camel's account, he said with some surprise, "Do they play this dirty game?"

The camel scoffed and said, "Otherwise, why do you think the profits from war are so high?"

The Iraq War gave the Pentagon a taste of success, and only then did they understand why Britain had so many military service companies...

On the surface, the United States did not profit from the Iraq War, but in reality, countless people made a fortune in Iraq.

War created a lawless land!
When you don't have to worry about the subsequent governance issues at all, you can plunder countless riches from a war-torn country.

Samor International, using its own methods, helped numerous Iraqi officials and wealthy businessmen transfer their wealth while simultaneously amassing enormous fortunes for itself.

As he spoke, Camel put down his binoculars and said, "There are only two hundred guards in this 'farm.' Do you see that 'barn'?"
I'm not sure how many people are inside, but I'm certain they're processing drugs.

Mountain Eagle frowned as he looked at the 'barn' and said in a deep voice, "I have no interest in drugs. I want to know where those kidnapped people are being held."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle raised his binoculars again and looked at the 'farm' in the distance. He said with some surprise, "The 'farm' is smaller than I imagined. I can't see anything special about it that could be used to hold those kidnapped women."

I had to investigate closely, otherwise, if I made a mistake, I might alert them and cause those women to be moved to a more secluded location.

Just as the mountain eagle got up to move, the camel grabbed his arm, pointed to several hilly areas south of the farm, and said, "You don't know about Kosovo. Back then, Yugoslavia built many hidden military bases and warehouses in various places to cope with the war."

They built the warehouse inside the mountain, connecting it to the outside world through hidden surface roads or even underground transportation.

We've seen this farm layout before, inside Serbia. If Anita's information is correct, then there must be a secret base inside those mountains.

The road conditions here far exceed the needs of this 'farm' of its size, and the location is also inconsistent with the tactical requirements of the Kosovo Liberation Organization; there is absolutely no need for them to build here unnecessarily.

Upon hearing this, Mountain Eagle frowned and said, "Assuming that secret base really exists, then this farm is the only exit?"

The camel shook its head and said, "That's definitely not the only way out..."

If I'm right, the 'farm' is definitely the main transportation exit connecting the base to the outside world, but there must be other hidden entrances and exits in the mountains that people can enter and exit on foot.

However, I'm not sure if those entrances and exits still exist now..."

After listening, Mountain Eagle slowly retreated a distance, then stood up and said, "You guys continue to keep watch here, I'll go around and take a look."

"If we can't pinpoint the location of the kidnapped women, even if we win, the victory will be less significant."

Camel understood what Mountain Eagle was saying. He nodded and said, "Be careful. Don't alert the guards inside. We already alerted their main force during the day. Now the outer perimeter is full of their people. If something goes wrong, it will affect the mission to capture the 'White Whale'."

Mountain Eagle knew the priorities better than anyone else. He nodded heavily and said, "Tell Elk and Eddie that after you finish drawing the 'farm' map, go and meet up with Duchamp and the others. I'll go take a look by myself."

I won't feel at ease until I can pinpoint the problem!

As they spoke, the mountain eagle slowly retreated into the darkness, disappearing swiftly into the rustling bushes carried by the wind with a peculiar gait...
