Chapter 1052: Chapter 563 Who Became the Yellow Sparrow?_3

As these attackers were crawling out to escape, they were greeted by a barrage of hand grenades.

The combat subsided, and battlefield cleanup was underway.

"Everyone be careful, watch for any feigning death, shoot first if something feels off, and be wary of booby traps..."

Shouts could be heard from time to time, but overall it was calm and nothing unexpected occurred.

Sean Knight first rushed to the small building, calling out:

"Her Royal Highness, are you alright over there?"

"It’s fine, the princess is safe," Amina responded. "We killed two..."

"Good, good, don’t come out; just stay inside the house, we’ll clean up the battlefield."

Hearing that they were safe, Sean Knight was reassured and began assisting the team members to clean up the battlefield.

His "Sky Eye" was effective, even discovering a grenade with its pin pulled, hidden under a body.

A total of eleven bodies were neatly arranged in the courtyard.

The awakened workers and technicians were informed about the situation and then sent back to their quarters.

It would be troublesome if someone started causing trouble from inside at such a time.

Looking at the mercenaries who died in various states, Sean Knight didn’t really feel anything.

After all, the number of people who died by his hand was high, these few didn’t make a difference.

"After searching, we didn’t find anything on them that could prove their identities. Also, they were carrying a large quantity of explosives, they must have been planning to create some accidents here."

Shortly after, people from the periphery came to report:

"We’ve found their means of transportation—two off-road vehicles. They were parked on a sand dune one kilometer away. There’s nobody in the off-road vehicles, and no signs of anyone leaving."

"Notify the other positions, tell them what happened here, and ask them to be on alert," Sean Knight said. "Be careful, this could be a diversion by the enemy."

Elijah Hastings and his team began the post-combat work. Vigilance still had to be maintained as the number of personnel had clearly exceeded previous expectations.

Thus, it was highly likely that the enemy had another entry channel.

The most important thing now was to locate the remaining personnel and find that corridor.

However, Sean Knight and Elijah Hastings estimated that even if the enemy sent more people, it wouldn’t be many.

After all, this was a sovereign country, and a member of the OPEC Organization. On the surface, relations with the Americans hadn’t broken off, so it was unlikely that a large number of people would be sent over openly.

The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in the Middle East was united in belief and interest, and was very cohesive.

After finishing these arrangements, Amina came looking for Sean Knight.

"The princess was looking for me?" Sean Knight was somewhat surprised, "Princess Aria is alright, isn’t she?"

Amina was a bit evasive, making Sean Knight think something was wrong with the princess, so he immediately ran towards the small building.

Hopefully, there was no trouble!

After running upstairs, Sean Knight saw several bodyguards outside the room, with the door ajar.

He subconsciously checked through "Sky Eye" and saw Aria sitting on the sofa inside the house, head bowed.

There was no one else in the room.

Seeing Aria’s normal vital signs, Sean Knight relaxed slightly.

He pushed the door open and Aria looked up.

The bodyguards closed the door from the outside.

"Mr. Knight, I am a bit scared..." Aria’s voice was timid, sounding somewhat pitiful.

Sean Knight exhaled quietly to himself and walked over to her.

On the table still lay the pistol, with a faint smell of gunpowder lingering in the air.

It seemed that Aria had really fired the gun.

The bodyguards were relaxed, to actually have involved her in the combat.

Fortunately, she was unharmed.

Sean Knight sat beside Aria, about to console her, but unexpectedly, Aria threw herself into his arms, clutching tightly at his waist.

Sean Knight was somewhat dazed.

What’s going on?

The ensuing events were somewhat inevitable.

Perhaps to relieve the post-combat tension and excitement, or maybe because after participating in combat, she felt the need to do something.

The two of them ’battled’ until it was almost dawn.

Aria surprised Sean Knight somewhat.

When everything settled down and the two came out, Sean Knight felt a bit awkward in front of the bodyguards, while Aria was beaming.

After having breakfast, Sean Knight received a report from Elijah Hastings.

"From last night until now, aside from the combat here, Oil Well 13 was also harassed. Three people with a camel approached the oil well, were illuminated by the searchlight, and then left."

"It looks like there are still enemies outside," Sean Knight nodded after hearing this. "We still need to strengthen the vigilance. The drones must continue to scout more. Additionally, those on patrol need to focus on securing the supply line, don’t let those people cut off our supplies."

"Understood!"

While Sean Knight was handling work as usual, Aria received a phone call from her brother Abdullah.

"How is everything over there?" Abdullah asked routinely; he cared about his sisters and also wanted to know what Sean Knight’s demands were.

"It’s pretty good," Aria was still savoring the wonderful moments, and spoke, "Last night some people attacked here, and we even killed two invaders!"

"What? Someone attacked? Do you know who they were? Are you alright? How could this happen..."

Abdullah immediately became anxious and bombarded her with a litany of questions upon hearing this.

"I’m fine, I’m fine, my dear brother. Someone was protecting me. Sean and the others were prepared for the possibility of an attack, so when those people came, they walked right into an ambush..."

"He knew there would be a sneak attack, why didn’t he send you back?" Abdullah began to vent his anger at Sean Knight, angry that he had left his sister in a dangerous position.

"No, no, no, brother, you’re misunderstanding him. He told me to leave yesterday, but I didn’t want to go. I hadn’t had my fill of fun yet!"

Aria’s nonchalant attitude gave Abdullah a headache.

But he quickly sobered up and started asking for details.

Knowing that the attackers were likely foreign mercenaries that came from the sea, Abdullah’s brows furrowed!

It seemed that some people needed to be taught a lesson!

Otherwise, those capitalists really wouldn’t take this country seriously!

Now was actually a good opportunity!
