light and quickly headed down the stairs. He set up a C4 stick on
the tower to ensure it could assist in his escape in the
future.
He would also need the security
access codes to get through the main door of the keep. So, he used
his grappling hook to slide down the wet outer walls of the tower.
As the Viper agent slowly went towards the main entrance, Lucas
followed him like a shadow. The agent went through the outer wooden
door to the entrance which had a two-step security setup to get
through it. The agent put up the security codes first and then got
his palm scanned to open the main door. At this point Lucas sneaked
up from behind and eliminated his target. He lifted the body and
walked along the corridor. The corridor was surprisingly empty and
the Viper agents seem to be missing. Lucas located a store room
nearby and dumped the body there. He also set up a C4 stick there.
Next, he needed to find out the surveillance room to cut off all
form of surveillance and also locate Annie. He had his head down
while he walked along the corridor moving by the security cameras.
The Viper agents would not be able to see his face as he had
switched on the infrared beam on his goggles.
As he reached the end of the
corridor and sneaked past a room, he noticed five Viper agents
enjoying their drink and watching soccer on television. The Euro
qualifiers were in progress and Russia was playing in the qualifier
against Belgium. Lucas quickly went ahead and progressed to the
next corridor. To his left he could see signs pointing to an exit
possibly towards the hangar. From the other side two agents were
heading towards him. Lucas headed towards the agents with his head
down.
‘ Have you seen Blanco?’ One of the
agents asked him.
Lucas quickly directed them
towards the room suggesting that he was probably watching soccer
with others. The agents walked by heading towards the room while
Lucas briskly walked away from them.
On the next corridor Lucas could
finally locate the surveillance room. Three agents were busy with
the radar and radio when he entered the room. No one seemed to
bother looking at the CCTV footage.
‘ Can I help you?’ asked one of the
agents.
Lucas calmly replied, ‘Well Blanco
headed out some time ago towards the hangar and he is not back yet.
Can you please check if he is still waiting there or has he come
back’?
One of the agents now turned
towards the screens to locate Blanco while the rest of them
continued working with the radar. Lucas stood behind the agent and
made sure no one was looking towards him. He quickly grabbed hold
of head and with a turn of the head eliminated his target. He
turned around towards the other two who were still busy with the
radar. Lucas took out his silenced M9 and killed them both. He
quickly moved the bodies to a corner of the room to hide them from
the agents who would pass by. He made the dead surveillance
operator sit in front of the CCTV screens to create an illusion to
the agents passing by that he was busy with
surveillance.
Next Lucas went through the
security cameras looking for Annie. The first floor housed the
dormitory for the agents and the dining room. Apart from that the
electrical systems room and backup generators were also located on
the first floor. On the second floor, he could see a large number
of Viper agents standing in guard in front of Romanovich’s room.
The big Russian was restlessly moving around his room and talking
to someone on his cell phone. Rest of the rooms on the floor seemed
to be empty. Lucas checked the footage from the third floor. There
were multiple cells on the floor which had been built so that
captured pirates could be held temporarily. Most of the cells were
empty except one where a couple of guards were standing guard. He
could see Rosmus moving up to the third floor. Lucas was pretty
certain that he had located Annie’s cell.
Outside the keep, the footage from
the hangar was
