There are medium and low difficulty settings, and each match is made up for 20 or 30 rounds. To win the match, players must take down the boss monster in the final round. The boss monster is immensely powerful and cooperation between teammates is very important. AI modes come with many rewards depending on the number of bosses killed and in-game scores. This mode is the easiest to get into for beginners.
Cooperation with teammates is key in the AI mode. This mode is great for beginners to get into.
In this mode, you annihilate the opposition with other teammates to win.
As with the Team Match, this mode is carried out on a best-of basis, from five rounds up to thirteen rounds. Whichever team wins the right number of rounds first, as set before the match, wins the match.
Although teamwork is important, tactics are the most important element in this mode as you need to take down the enemy team quickly.
Escape before the time runs out!
You will alternate between the offensive and the defensive as you play in this mode. Attackers must reach the extraction point within the time limit, and defenders must stop them from escaping.

This brand-new game mode filled with thrill and tension requires highly developed combat senses.
Although similar to the Nano mode, one of the mercenaries is chosen as a Hero and Nanos can respawn for a unique kind of fun.
With a Hero in their midst and the Morale system, mercenaries now boast greater firepower. The Hero is armed with powerful firearms. Equipped with a grenade launcher, the Hero is outstanding in suppressing Nanos. The Morale system boosts the mercenaries' attack damage when Nanos are destroyed. On the other hand, Nanos have become incredibly powerful with infinite respawns. The only way to keep them from respawning is to kill them with a headshot.
With the infinite respawns for the Nanos, this mode is even more casual. The addition of a Hero enhances the fun factor.
This mode is played in something of a hide-and-seek style with a few Nanos and many mercenary.
Mercenaries win by eradicating the Nanos or by surviving for the duration of the match. Nanos win by infecting all mercenaries and turning them into Nanos. The number of Nanos are semi-randomly determined based on the number of players in the Game Room.
Although there is less strategy/tactics and tension involved compared to other modes, this mode is good for casual playing.
Although similar to the Nano mode, Nanos receive a Terminator, and mercenaries receive a Reinforced Hero for a great fun.
Mercenaries see an overall increase in firepower, and the last surviving mercenaries can transform into Reinforced Heroes. While a Reinforced Hero can only make melee attacks, this character also has high damage and health. Depending on the number of players in the Game Room, up to three Reinforced Heroes are available. Although Nanos have infinite respawns as with the Hero mode, they must be killed with melee attacks to be kept from respawning. The brand-new Terminator is a Nano hero that is chosen at random. This powerful Nano hero possesses powerful skills and great firing range.
This mode becomes fierce from the conflict between opposing heroes. Tension runs high until mercenaries become Reinforced Heroes.
In this mode, you work with your teammates to eliminate the opposition or otherwise complete mission objectives (planting or defusing a C4, etc.) to win the match.
Also, the Team Match is carried out on a best-of basis, from three rounds up to thirteen rounds. Whichever team wins the right number of rounds first, as set before the match, wins the match.
This mode is excellent for teamwork, strategy and tactics.
Shadow Mode is a advanced version of Ghost Mode.
This mode will have 2 sub modes Eliminationwhich is similar to the regular ghost mode and Infection. Infection Mode is where Ghostsand Mercenaries can "Infect" each other turning them into the faction that they were killedby. Example if a Mercenary kills a "Fury Ghost" which is what they are called in this mode. They will turn into a Mercenary on respawn. If the "Fury Ghost" kills a Mercenary they will turn into a "Fury Ghost".

Transport Ship map is renewed with 'Reality Option' and improved graphics.
GRX striking agents in the transport airship were quiet.
They were not afraid of the following battle. They were veterans and rather excited to engage in the first battle after a long time; however, this situation where no one makes a joke to ease tension was unfamiliar.
They were going to a metropolis.
It was already two years since the battle with corrupted Alpha happened in the secret base of Blitz. After a long period of silence followed by narrow win in the fight, people in the world were carefully cherishing a hope and establishing the large city in their old memory. They emphasized with each other and hoped to recover the old city and cure their wounds in the heart, watching their base reviving from wreckage.
However, Blitz did not have mercy upon any slight hope.
Blitz, returning from the past, became stronger, bigger, and more merciless. Living weapon appearing in the city all of sudden rapidly devoured the large city. When GRX organized the striking group, more than half of the city was ruined.
Although massive new weapons and forces were together with the group, GRX agents going to the aiming point felt devastated; they saw the hell of two years ago, which was not expected at all, in front of them as if punishing their complacency. GRX agents changed their agony and shame into the fighting spirit. There was no mercy for Blitz. What remained was only spirit for revenge to anticipate Blitz’s destruction. Imagining the upcoming revenge, they put a smile on their lips.
In order to eradicate the continuous terror attacks conducted by BL, GR Central Headquarters plan on attacking the Canyon Base training camp.
Dispatch the Special Forces to the Canyon Base training camp!
Men, raid the enemy camp and demolish it!
Setting base in Venice, the mutants carry out a full-fledged world invasion after they were attacked during Operation Annihilation Valkyrie Lab.
In 2 hours, Chicago has been completely demolished by unidentified powerful mutants that fell from the sky.
Immediately after the ‘Chicago Raid’, Black List released a statement saying that although the mutants threatening the world were a byproduct of its research, a global invasion went against its ideology. They blamed “Blitz", a new group created after an internal fallout within the organization, for the attacks. Led by GRX, the military forces around the world took action against ‘Black List’ and ‘Blitz’ mutants.
A GRX special force trooper let out a big sigh while looking at what was left of ‘Chicago’. Looking down from the helicopter, the young man’s nostalgic memory of Chicago was nowhere to be found. Hopefully, Chicago can be reclaimed and returned to its glory days.
Operation ‘Death Rally’ GRX agents are looking at the wilderness and the Canyon under the bridge surrounded by the helicopter's explosive sound.
The mission given to them is passing through the Canyon region Blitz's bio-weapons are deployed with bare hands to get to the helicopter again at the rendezvous point at the opposite side. GRX has no other choice.
The helicopter cannot cross the Blitz's elaborate air defense network, and the 'target' GRX must get back keeps moving.
It would be a suicide mission for sure without the new transport unit ‘Land Surfer’. As the land surfer is employed for the first time in an actual fighting, the difficulty is no less than before.
However, GRX agents are more confident than ever. They have grown into more than humans fighting against many bio-weapons in many battlefields. They don't feel satisfied by a normal mission, and only the missions close to death make them feel thrilled.
“Now we get to the destination in 60 seconds.”
As the message is delivered, the GRX agents turn on their land surfers. They are preparing to jump for the expectation of the thrill.
The bloody battle against Blitz at E.M.D Lab ended in favor of GR with remarkable activities of GRX elite agents. But such victory resulted many unleashed bio-weapons and sealed experimental specimens to escape outside. GRX agents who could not escape the collapsing tower could have been dead as they were not able to penetrate waves of attack from the specimens, but dramatically they survived with teleport by “Boy” and “Mystery Girl”.
However, the situation outside was not any different.
“Mystery Girl” had teleported the agents to a downtown area nearby E.M.D Lab. The city was horribly ruined, making it almost impossible to imagine its ever-lively scene. Forest of office buildings was destroyed like an ant hill dug up by child, and red twilight decorating the sky line was burning black, surrounded by flame and gunfire.
Not only the scene itself put the agents into despair, but bio-weapons instinctively sensed their location and charged towards them with murderous look.
Their lives at stake! At that moment “Mystery Girl” handed ‘GIfT (Genetic Infector for Transmorphosis)’ to GRX agents.
GIfT was a variation of Nano Ghost virus, a stable type which rapidly transformed and enhanced the body and still kept the infected person conscious. With this the agents gained superhuman power.
Full control of Nano Ghost virus was now not limited to only “Boy” and “Mystery Girl”. GRX agents, as the most skilled elite mercenaries as their enhanced body, must defend against the bio-weapons and survive!
An unknown little girl's humming was heard through the disaster relief organization's radio communication.
The source of the voice was the place where the air raid occurred, but it came from the 'Dinner Theater', a place where damage was minimal. Everyone thought that area had been safely evacuated during and after the raid.
Why would a little girl be in a place like that… There were many suspicious aspects to this, but they sent a rescue team nonetheless.
A few hours later…
The dispatched members could no longer be contacted. It had been a trap set by the Blitz (A group that branched out from the BL, responsible for the raid).
Not only that, but it most likely was an outpost for guerrilla warfare. The elite squad of the GR, the GRX gets ready to put an end to these monsters and enter the 'Dinner Theater'.
That's when the little girl started giggling.
All the doors were closed, the lights came on, and a series of unbelievable events started unfolding.
"The core of the zombie outbreak.
The members were led to this place by following the faint blue light from the darkness.
The inside consisted of a spiral staircase that goes down to the very bottom of the tower and the view made it feel like they were in a test tube in the middle of the vast ocean.
The lowest floor has a beam of light that shoots up with a loud crackle as well as a river made of lightning.
Whatever you find here, you won't find anywhere else."
After assaulting Thunderstroke Tower, GRX gained a powerful strength as G.I.F.T. It blocked all the attacks from Blitz and began to counterattack.
Despite its efforts, however, the change of victory was not easily seized.
The force of Blitz was unlimited by making it wonder where its power comes from. Its system, which was unstable after Thunderstroke Tower attack, began to be on the track.
In this critical situation, GRX began to detect and trace all their movements by gathering all powers to occupy the definitive lead. Finally, GRX detected Blitz’s strange movement; it found Blitz’s force transporting something at Valkyrie Lab, which was thought to be totally destroyed.
Believing that this was the last change, CRX began to chase it tenaciously as a “goal.” As tracing continued, Blitz desperately avoided being chased, and GRX had more conviction in the importance of this goal.
Breaking through the final defense line of Blitz through “Death Rally” strategy, GRX finally reached Blitz’s secret base and faced the change to win back the goal.
However, that is not the only thing that was confronted to GRX.
Blitz’s prototype living weapons were waiting for them. With the sophisticated appearance as if the essence of all the technology to produce Blitz living weapons was mixed, these living weapons seemed to have much stronger power than the most superior living weapons.
However, GRX’s top agents did not stop their advance. With expectation of the following fight, the agents pushed forward the final battle.

GR discovered a research site located in the depths of Grand Canyon at a time when BL's suspicious activities increased in most recent days. In order to seize BL's research data on biological weapons, GR dispatches its search party.
GR Search Squad comprised with only the finest mercenaries easily eliminated the loose security and succeeded in nabbing the top secret dossier but...
They were able to verify BL's research first hand when they were attacked by these new creatures.
Can they survive BL's relentless attacks and deliver the top secret document to GR headquarters?
The newly resurrected Blitz launched an invasion that took the world by surprise. The landscape was left as a broken wasteland in the aftermath of the attack.
GRX was able to defend themselves at the Shattered Station, but with that victory came a countless number of defeats. But, GRX was still alive.
In response, they created a new, mobile weapon to deal with any threat posed by Blitz. It was humanity’s only chance. But Blitz would not stand idly by.
Mobilizing a large number of bio-weapons, Blitz stormed the shipyard where the new weapon was being built. The shipyard was heavily fortified, but would eventually succumb to Blitz’s assault. GRX needed more time. So, GRX decided to deploy a squad of elite mercenaries armed with enhanced defenses to combat the threat. Riding on a special armoured vehicle, these brave soldiers were briefed on their mission. These soldiers were called for short notice, but were not lacking in resolve. They wanted revenge for their fallen comrades, and they would be sure to take it from Blitz. If they were normal grunts, a mission of this caliber would cause them to tremble in fear. But instead, a smile crept over the soldiers’ faces…
Black List hasn't made any demands or released a statement regarding the incident that occurred in Venice.
According to the documents obtained in Canyon Base, it seemed Black List was trying to move its research facilities.
Most likely, Black List attacked Venice to evade the attention of each country and Global Risk. Luckily, the new research facility Valkyrie Lab was identified with the help of an anonymous informant.
"Valkryie" What does it mean? What are Black List's intentions?
And who in the world would provide such top secret information?
In the midst of many unanswered questions, Global Risk plans on carrying out a large-scale strike.
Before the full-blown strike could take place, a reconnaissance unit was sent into the lab. Considering Black List's troop size, the reconnaissance unit soon discovered annihilation would've been inevitable if the operation were to have been executed.
At the moment of realization, Global Risk's reconnaissance unit was exposed.
Can they cheat death to report back to Global Risk and prevent a doomed operation from happening?
Let's go back to 13 hours ago, after Black List set up base camps at Research Site and Canyon Base.
In 2 hours, City of Water Venice was completely demolished by Black List's indiscriminate attacks led by biological weapons. Black List positioned itself around the city and destroyed all bridges to isolate itself from the outside world.
The Italian government wanted to make a strong stance, but without any communication from Venice and not knowing the circumstances, it couldn't react hastily. The most pressing issue is not about the damaged art and architecture but figuring out how many survivors there are. Under this dire situation, Global Risk makes a proposal the Italian government cannot refuse – recapturing Venice. Global Risk knew about the biological weapons, and it was curious why Black List attacked Venice, so despite the small number of soldiers, it decided to go into battle.
That night...
Global Risk's special unit made up of selected few marines executes an undercover operation taking advantage of the lax night security to reconquer Venice not knowing that it's a trap...
Black List's biological weapons appear with the alarm going off. Can Global Risk destroy the biological weapons and recapture Venice by dawn? Also, will they be able to find their goal and come closer to the ‘truth'?
As the world starts to pay attention to the natural resources buried in the shore of Alaska's northern coast, the US government discovers an oil field of 30 billion barrels.
The railroad in Alaska downtown where 5% of world's entire oil field has been discovered becomes the battleground for the countries who wish to take over the oilfield. The US government connects an oil pipeline that lengths 1,000km across Alaska to Valdez to transport the oil and keep it to themselves.
However, Russian government who discovered the value of the oil field fights the US and starts the Cold War while internally building up their military forces.
As their first attempt, the Russian government cooperates with Black List to illegally take over the Alaska Railroad and starts to steal substantial amount of oil.
The US government, who finds out the amount of oil transported through the pipeline is not sufficient, requests Global Risk to investigate the pipeline. After the investigation, the US government discovers that parts of Alaska Railroad have been illegally conquered.
The US government who has the rights to the oilfield hires Global Risk to protect the oil field and liberate the conquered area. Now starts a resource battle of Global Risk against Russia and Black List.
The Roman amphitheater--once popular for fights among beasts and duels between gladiators--is protected as a historical site. However, below the amphitheater exists a secret base of Global Risk, dedicated to creating powerful new weapons. "Directional nano particle" is a future technology Global Risk has invested in for the last decade. The technology enables the control of nano particles with strong explosive ability to minimize damage on one's own forces and inflict greater damage on the enemy.
If directional nano particles are sprayed, firearms cannot be used in the area since only a spark would be needed to cause a massive explosive reaction. Black List has discovered the secret base of Global Risk and invades the base to steal thenew technology.
Sensing the impending invasion, the commander of the secret base utilizes the new technology and engages the invaders in melee combat to protect the base.
Even the most powerful country in the world has a dark history. The prime example of America's dark history is a place called B. Street. Although this place is filled with a lot of hurt and pain, a new music style with leading musicians were born here. Now, this place has transformed itself into a Jazz and Hip-pop street. Today, however, this street once filled with music is full of gunshot sounds. Most likely, Black List and Global Risk are engaging in a gunfight battle and it just so happened to be at B.Street. However, everyone eagerly prays that this place no longer fall victim to violence again...
Colombia has been a long-standing source of crime and drug trade. Black List and Global Risk operatives have been engaged in conflict over the area for some time. Combat has gotten so intense that rumours of a full-blown war have now spread to the frightened citizens of Colombia. GR is now preparing an evacuation plan in the event of total war.
Progress at the secret base for the nuclear submarine Igis has been reported to the command centers of both mercenary corporations. Per urgent request for support troops, both companies dispatch soldiers to the secret base.
Rivals never fail to meet each other whether by coincidence or not.
The troops of both companies who rushed to the base to support their team face each other at the sewer treatment facility of the sub base.
Support troops of each mercenary company fight to reduce the numbers of the enemy before they enter the base. Which one of the two will make it into the secret base for Igis?
The Persian Gulf is actively explored and developed for its abundant natural resources. This area is the subject to territorial disputes between Iran and the Arab states and a continuing source of international tension. Among all the exploration teams, only Iran was able to discover a vast amount of natural gas resources.
For the purpose of drilling gas on a large scale, Iran and the Arab states form a coalition. The drilling by the coalition goes smoothly, but the nomadic people who were angry about being kicked out of the region without receiving any sort of compensation start to claim their rights by attempting to occupy the facilities.
As the likelihood of the occupation of the facility built to drill the natural gas rises, the Arab state coalition pays an enormous amount and hires Global Risk to guard the surroundings of the facility. Consequently, the nomadic tribal leader feels his people are in a disadvantage and makes a deal with Black List by offering a portion of the profits to the drilling of the natural gas in exchange for reclaiming the facility. And so begins the fierce war over natural gases between Global Risk and Black List.
After the excavation of an ancient Egyptian King's tomb... On several occasions, Global Risk and Black List were involved in intense battles at the holy site. However, a huge scandal made headlines when it was revealed that one of the countries securing mercenary services secretly misappropriated the king's antiquities during the excavation without notifying the country of possession or even Global Risk. Due to this scandal, the archeologists and Global Risk mercenaries that were hired to protect the relics were deeply affected. While Global Risk Central Headquarters and the UN X-File Bureau were busy blaming each other, Black List seized the opportunity to initiate plans to steal an ancient stone statue made with special materials needed for their Ghost research. From the beginning of this conflict, Black List's goal was to steal the ancient stone statue. In order to temporarily secure the valuables, a Mosque garden near the excavation site was selected for safekeeping... As Operation Confiscation was running smoothly for Black List, the security around the antiquities was heightened. At the last stage of Black List's Operation, Global Risk's special unit GRX identified the situation and is moving in to block Black List from taking the statue. GRX wants to protect the statue as well as regain its fallen honor.
On the map, this island is marked as a deserted island. However, it's a UN-designated prison facility for high profile terrorists.
Recently, the Black List's top dogs demanded a secret hiding place in exchange for their financial support after the global issue of Greece teeters on the brink of bankruptcy. Although national security was on the line, Greece couldn't condone terrorist activities and had to protect its people. In retaliation, Black List causes a large-scale terrorist attack, killing 1,200 people in a Greek festival. A top Black List leader who masterminded the attack was arrested, and he was sent off to this prison island.
Less than a week after he had been taken into custody, Black List selected their best troops to infiltrate the prison island and extract him. However, Global Risk stands guard over the high profile terrorists and would never hand him over without a fight.
A Norwegian water plant plant located in the west of Russia.
According to the UN intelligence it was in fact a heavy water plant disguising in the water plant.
Heavy water is used in neutralizing nuclear fission chain reaction or producing plutonium for nuclear weapon, and it was reported that there were signs of the water being supplied to worldwide.
In response, the UN asked GR to secure and investigate the water plant and also to secure transaction records.
GR, while investigating the facility with main equipment installed producing heavy water, had encountered BL.
To their surprise, BL had secured the area faster than GR and was trying to drain out the heavy water.
Due to infrastructure of the facility, suppressing the other with merciless firepower meant death to everyone.
Two camps confronting one another, in this limited, extremely dangerous space.
No one knows how the situation will be resolved…
Global Risk just been ambushed by a Black List squad and had lost a large amount of supplies due to an explosion. It was only thanks to a raging sandstorm that they had survived the ambush. But even so, now they were on foot with no communication to their base.
After what seemed like ages, they noticed that the sandstorm began to dissipate and the outlines of structures made themselves visible in the dust. Old wooden structures that harkened to a past age of wild frontiers beckoned the mercenaries into shelter. The mercs didn't know what town they had stumbled upon as none of their maps indicated any kinds of town in the area. As they surveyed the structures they knew immediately why this was, the town had long since been abandoned.
Before them stood a group of men clad in desert fatigues lined up down the main road of the town. It was the Black List squad that had ambushed them earlier.
The GR mercs noticed several old fashioned revolvers lying in the dirt before them while they stared down the road at their mortal enemies.
A festive way to eliminate your guests!
The UN X-File Bureau has received reports from the Global Risk’s GRX special agents that an unusual amount of energy wavelengths are being generated from the Ancient Ruins of South America.
Further investigation brought out research results that were beyond imagination for today’s technology. It was a teleporting gateway, and they named it ‘EXIT’ for security purposes.
Under the surveillance of the Global Risks’ GRX, the research went smoothly, and another ‘EXIT’ was discovered somewhere not too far away at a high altitude place beyond human reach.
There, they established a ‘Temporary Operations Command’ to recruit people to research ‘EXIT’ and preserve the data.
Two months after the Temporary Operations Command was founded, teleportation between the Ancient Ruins and the Temporary Operations Command was possible through the ‘EXIT’. Then, they began to theorize that as long as the ‘EXIT’ was under control, they would be able to transport to various locations from just one place.
Soon after that, provoked by justice, they announced that the teleporting passage can help the entire world from terrorist threats.
The terrorist organization hijacked the ‘EXIT’ information and hired Black List to confiscate it.
The Black List set up a base in the Ancient Ruins and they have started attacking in order to find the other location.
Due to the attack at the Temporary Headquarters, the secret new teleportation technology code-named 'EXIT' was airlifted, but as a tradeoff, the research materials at the headquarters were left behind for Black List.
After a month of hard work, the Global Risk research team finally developed the technical skills necessary to transport the 'EXIT' technology. Because they haven't yet figured out the precise operational parameters of teleportation yet, it was crucial to move the 'EXIT' technology quickly before it fell into the hands of Black List along with the research data.
Global Risk makes a risky decision and installs the 'EXIT' on a converted vessel disguised as a cargo ship in order to move the 'EXIT' around the world.
One day, Global Risk temporarily stops the vessel after determining the next location that 'EXIT' will teleport to. Having monitored the vessel's movements, Black List seizes this golden opportunity, to infiltrate the ship, even in the midst of harsh waves...
Even though Global Risk dispatched a security squad and research team to the projected teleport destination, if Black List is able to occupy it first, everything will be ruined.
Same goes for Black List. They need to reach the location before Global Risk so that everything goes smoothly as planned and they can reverse-engineer the technology for themselves.
Both sides are preparing for an all-out brawl to get as many units as possible through the 'EXIT' gate to achieve teleportation supremacy.
Old Town is a launch Escape Mode 2 map sets within an urban area.
A recent clash that occurred at the excavation site where a new teleportation device code-named 'EXIT' was discovered was declared a regular terror attack in the global community, but it resulted in huge mercenary loss for both Global Risk and Black List.
Regardless of the enormous loss to its operational forces, Black List command doesn't even bat an eye and ultimately discovers the location of the Temporary Headquarters where the 'EXIT' technology is being researched. However, considering the tight security of the 'EXIT' program, it'll be like committing suicide to attempt to infiltrate the Temporary Headquarters facility and use the 'EXIT' machine directly. So the main goal of Black List is to get their research data instead of figuring out the next 'EXIT' destination.
Utilizing the data, Black List will be able to figure out the next 'EXIT' location with the least amount of casualties.
On the day of the assault, Black List's training helicopter quickly struck the information library. Because it happened all of a sudden, the information library was easily conquered. To stop Black List, Global Risk engaged in fierce battle, but it was after Black List had already hijacked all the information. Black List continuously attacks the headquarters building where 'EXIT' is located so that they can quickly take the hijacked information back to their base camp.
Now, Global Risk has only one way out to get out of this current situation: Preventing Black List's entire attack team from escape!
The Bermuda Triangle, located near the State of Miami, US. Black List's surveillance network caught an establishment similar to Global Risk's underwater base. Black List became suspicious of Global Risk's activities after detecting vessels of Global Risk in the Bermuda Triangle and the sea nearby. After searching through the Devil's Triangle, Black List found a giant underwater establishment. Black List decides to destroy the underwater establishment. However, the biggest obstacle to the mission, the radar base, is located in Puerto Rico which is near the Bermuda Triangle. Now Black List must destroy the radar base and the underwater base simultaneously. Black List needs to destroy the radar base first to have the eyes of Global Risk focused on the radar base and go for the underwater base in the meanwhile. First target is the radar base in the east of Puerto Rico. Black List starts to carry out their mission to destroy Global Risk's underwater base.
Black Widow map is renewed with 'Reality Option' and improved graphics.
A big delivery company's distribution center is located somewhere near a beach in Morico Tangier. And the situation seemed too tense for an ordinary distribution center to handle since it was secretly used as a logistical center for UNF.
The distribution center used to belong to BL, however, was being shared also with GR. This was one of the methods to strengthen their military alliance which was forced to be created by NANO Ghosts. Through this system, GR was able to obtain their supply route to 3rd party and areas infected to NANO Ghosts, and BL was able to build the trust with GR. Although surface seems very calm and tight bonded, their ultimate goal was to capture each others agents as hostages.
Within the distribution Center, there were two conflicts currently going on. The supply order matter divided the crowd into two. The GR and BL were all mixed up within these two cliques. In the beginning, this wasn't a big deal. However, due to long term battle against Nano Ghost, they were too warn out to handle such things.
In the end, the tension had finally exploded 2 hours before unofficial UNF dissolution.
The two cliques whom already felt the dissolution of UNF decided to start the gun battle. From here, as the GR and BL auxiliary troops arrived for this strategic location caused the situation much worse. With just the outfits, they couldn't even tell allies and enemies. There were only the people shooting and others who are getting shot...
In this chaos, purposes of their fight faded away. Now the only purpose was to ... Survive.
The situation now requires more than just a peacekeeping troop stationed. NATO and the US need to actively engage. To have the two join in, the government of Norway decides to send additional veteran special forces to Kabul, Afghanistan. The decision is certainly an unfavorable one for the terrorists in Afghanistan who is funded by the rebel forces of Afghanistan. If the government of Norway sends their veteran special forces to Kabul, there will be a military-wide war campaign against the terrorists to wipe them out from the south of Afghanistan. The rebel forces of Afghanistan and the terrorists request Black List to prevent Norway from dispatching troops to avoid the combat.

* BL Mission¦Destroy GR munitions and explosives.
* GR Mission¦Defend munitions and explosives against BL.
The world was full of joy and excitement for New Year’s Day. Santorini, a resort area in Greece was no exception, even though the world was still exposed vulnerably to the threat of war and terrorism, and Santorini also was unstable once from a number of terror threats from BL. But, as an effort to forget all these anxiety momentarily with New Year’s festiveness, unique buildings of Santorini -the harmony of white and indigo which resembled the blue sea and white sandy beach- hung New Year-decorations in clusters, and streets between each building were full of crowd.
Meanwhile, aside the joyfulness of the New Year festival, mercenaries with GR badge was moving busily. GR’s purpose was to transfer explosives and munitions to safe area, in order to promote civilians’ security from a series of BL terror threats. Some critics argued that the military movement might break the joy of festival and cause anxiety among civilians and visitors, but it was the operation for those who might feel anxious. Agents of GR had to bear the disapproving public gaze during the operation, and they hoped that their action was merely a fuss.
However, such hope had shattered into pieces along with the sound of explosion at Santorini downtown.
The site of explosion was terrible; heavily wounded civilians and visitors screamed out in agony in the thick smoke, the streets of the delighted New Year festival turned into hell. It must be the terrorism of BL, although the presence of BL mercenary who executed the terror was unseen. GR units were directly sent to the explosion site and strived to cool down the chaos.
However, at that moment, as the surveillance became loose, lurking BL mercenaries attacked the explosives and munitions. Civilian casualties were the only a decoy of BL to draw GR’s attention.
The remaining GR mercenaries clenched their weapons to prevent further casualties.
The port in Europe unfrequented by people is now in operation again. The port has been the place for under the table trade of oils among European countries. Until recently, the port has been closed but is now open again due to continued disputes and stakes of each country involved in it. However, an incident caused the workers at the port to evacuate. The incident started after Global Risk finding out the fact the country who had loss from oil sales due to under the table trade between some European and Middle Eastern countries hired Black List for a mission. The commander of Global Risk who expected Black List to arrive at the port murmured as he heard the news about the invaders… Today will be the end of your kind, this is the revenge from Ceyhan.
At the top of a building in the middle of downtown.
Many months ago, construction had started at a pharmaceutical company’s building.
However, not too long ago, that same company went bankrupt, and as a result, the building was sold for dirt cheap and closed for good. Naturally, the construction was suspended.
More recently, neighbors began complaining about some noise that was coming from the top of the building in the wee hours of the morning. The GR suspected something was up.
As a result of the investigation, the GR found out about a chemical weapon that was being developed. Special Forces were dispatched immediately in order to seize the weapon and secure the area.
Not too long after they took over the building, an unidentified helicopter passed by the building. According to an agent’s report, it seemed like they had seen something move in the shadows.
The commander of the Special Forces broke out in a cold sweat, and ordered his squad to get ready to fight.
They… The Ghost Units had arrived.
In a remote and desolate area of Germany, lies an old lab that seeks to restore the twisted old glory of WWII. Global Risk receives intelligence about an organization called Neo Martz and infiltrates the laboratory to stop its plans.
Neo Martz is a secret society made up of the descendants of former WWII war criminals. In hopes of regaining their old glory, the surviving war criminals decided to work together by exchanging their top secret partial weapon blueprints. With much trials and tribulations, Neo Martz succeeded in creating a state of the art weapon.
In fear of global chaos with the revelation of this highly destructive weapon, UN hires Global Risk to stop Neo Martz of its plans to rule the world by destroying the new weapon and retrieve the weapon blueprint. However, when Global Risk operatives enter the lab, they sense something eerie in the air and suddenly, blurry objects fall from the ceiling.
It's a trap! Neo Martz found out about UN's deployment and hired Black List to destroy the research data that was left behind. And with a shriek from a deserted lab starts the fierce battle between Global Risk and Black List with unknown objects falling from the ceiling of the laboratory.
Can you survive the haunted prison?
"- BL Mission¦Detonate the Helicopter Landing Zone to cut off GR's retreat
- GR Mission¦Defend the Helicopter Landing Zone
It was when BL was delivering the Ghost-kit sample.
The secret delivery mission was going well without a problem. To be honest, there wasn't much of a thing to call it a 'Plan'. All they had to do was to deliver the Ghost Kit sample and its research data to a helicopter which is planned to arrive at 'Twin Tower'. However, GR took advantage of their off-guard.
The BL agents, enjoying Shanghai's night sky, couldn't defend against sudden GR attacks. Their top-secret information along with the Ghost Kit sample was now in the hands of GR. GR's plan was very precise. GR came from behind to cut their escape route and had already distracted the radio signals to isolate them completely. Soon, they will take the helicopter to escape. It was a very smart of GR to take their Ghost Kit as well as their escape route.
Luckily for BL, they still had some spare Ghost Kits. Now the only way to stop the helicopter from landing was to explode their landing zone.
BL agents used the Ghost Kit which they were only hearing about. As they were being surprised at their body turning invisible, they couldn't hold their excitement for new tactics awaiting ahead thanks to the Ghost Kit."
The US government and UN were jointly developing weapons at a secret underground laboratory. However, one of the researchers betrays them and runs away with a transparent ghost tool kit. The stolen ghost toolkit gets passed onto unknown armed forces and these special forces request Black List to destroy the secret underground laboratory by using the toolkit.
In order to resolve this issue without letting the world know, UN X-File Department of Management requests the special mission team GRX of Global Risk for cooperation. The incident leads to head-to-head collision between Black List and Global Risk.
Black List Command Center received a report that their troop who invaded the radar base is successfully carrying out the mission. Code Name Black Widow.
Black Widow was the code name for the mission of destroying the radar base and the mission was being carried out smoothly. Radar base destruction was only a tactic to distract Global Risk. The real goal of Black List was to destroy the secret base of Global Risk hidden under the sea nearby, and Black List sends troops to the secret base of Global Risk to accomplish their real goal.
However, Black List decides regular troops would not be sufficient to attack the underwater and sends in their special unit, the Ghost, to first determine the situation at the underwater base.
Ghost troop soldiers who invaded the base confirmed that the base is for creating new weapons as expected. They decide to destroy the base.
On the other hand, Global Risk commander who was focusing on protecting the radar base receives the news of underwater research laboratory getting attacked. He sends troops to the underwater base and orders them to protect the base no matter what.
Now starts a bloody battle at the underwater base.
Worldly renowned private archaeology research institute discovers unknown ruins of ancient civilization and starts to investigate the ruins. Not long after the start of the investigation, information that would raise enormous controversy on all areas of society including ‘history, religion, military, and science' are found. The details and amount of information continue to snowball to a degree that it cannot be announced publicly.
Higher organizations that control the world start to have their eyes on the value of the ruins, and a secret organization who aims at ‘societal order and maintenance' request the research to be discontinued under the reason the discovery may raise enormous controversy to the society. However, the research institute does not give up their investigation and requests Global Risk for help.
The secret organization angered by research team ignoring their warnings decides to force-stop the research. The organization contacts Black List, pays astronomical amount of money, and requests the finest troop of BL, the Ghost Team, to terrorize the ruins.
Now starts a battle between BL and GR on the grounds of the ancient ruins.
After the submarine base carnage, Black List has been very guarded about top secret clearance. However, one top Black List officer contacted Global Risk that he would give up some classified information in exchange for his family’s protection. The information was none other than Black List working on some kind of research. Knowing Black List’s egregious motives, Global Risk knew there was even a bigger Black List scheme.
Black List was notorious to set up labs and perform research on captured Ghost Kits and Mutants. What were they possibly plotting to do this time? The unknown dangers sent shivers down the spine. While investigating the seized research lab, Global Risk soldiers felt it was strange that Black List Elite troops left them to use the Ghost Tool Kits. It seemed Black List desperately wanted to bury their lives along with the organization’s deep dark secrets. On the other hand, Global Risk was completely clueless to Black List’s motives.
In the end, which side will be victorious?
'Reno' located in the middle of Nevada is a rare man-made city in the dry desert. It's a corrupt place of extraterritoriality, outside the government's jurisdiction, with the notorious 13th Zone. However, the true identity of 13th Zone lies underneath the city, the Black List secret lab "Ixion."
To increase the Ghost's combative power, "Ixion" develops the ghost nanomachine. However, in the process of human experimentation, a mutation occurs in the subjects' bodies and becomes uncontrollable, so the lab is shut down. After a month since the lab is closed, a random murder takes places in 13th Zone.
Although this murder doesn't draw any world attention, the surviving experimental subjects spread at an exponential rate using humans as hosts. As confusion mounts, the US government blockades 13th Zone and a 10km radius of the region to isolate the area from the rest of the world.
Black List's top leaders realize the experiment was not only a failure, but they have a serious situation on their hands. As a result, they ask for Global Risk's cooperation, and hence, the special task force 'UNF' was established. UNF sends men to 13th Zone with the sole purpose of destroying the ghost experimental subjects.
A few days earlier several researchers on the mutant plague had heard about a ruin deep in the Amazon jungle. Normally this wouldn't have come to their attention; however, these ruins were said to house several slates which depicted creatures very similar to the mutants. Not wanting to waste any opportunity to glean some insight, these researchers deployed a small team to investigate the ruins.
The Alpha team that was deployed had not been heard from for the last 24 hours.
Now, a new team was being deployed to investigate the disappearance of the Alpha team, and if they could not locate them, then finish the investigation of the ruins.
The captain was only there for security purposes, but he had a sinking feeling about this operation.
The makeshift facility to analyze the ruins had been more or less untouched. Most of the equipment was still functional and the scaffolding was still upright. The only oddity, was that all the equipment was placed so haphazardly, like the previous inhabitants had suddenly vanished.
As he was surveying the camp site, he heard a scream echoing from out of the nearby cave system. A scream filled with malevolence and terror, but not unfamiliar to him.
The mutants were upon them...
It was around late afternoon when Griffin had heard of the accident at EMD Vault.
‘EMD Vault’ was an underground facility; the core of new weapon control installation they were making. The importance of this facility-from electricity to run the control installation and construction all the way to supplying the power for the numerous amount of new weapon to be produced was indescribable. But the accident! Such was the news out of the blue to Griffin who was the head of the construction.
He entered the control room and shook his head after viewing the internal video of the vault. It seemed that Mutation Ghost virus had leaked and was the cause of the madness, since the infected creatures of Mutation Ghost were running amok over the corpses of victims. It was mysterious of how the virus had leaked, but there was absolutely no time to solve it. Nor it was hard to hastily open the underground bulkhead and send suppression force, because it was unknown how far the virus had spread. At that moment, however, a secret plan had flashed through his mind.
He unlocked the underground prison and armory. Then he fixed a microphone in the control room and made an announcement:
“Ah, testing. Greetings, dear prisoners. This is Griffin from Blitz. I’m in charge of this bio-weapon control facility. Currently Mutation Ghost virus has leaked in where you are right now, the underground. Unluckily, we already have some infected ones, too. But I’m not saying you people are hopeless. The armory is nearby, so you are welcome to pick up your weapon, bring back good old memories of Mercenaries, and kill as many infected creatures as you want. Once the situation is controlled enough for our suppression team to enter, I will definitely consider your release. Until then, good luck.”
How do they kill that powerful creatures, and what does he mean by ‘controlled enough for their suppression team to enter’? Moreover, a mere ‘consideration’ of release… Griffin’s announcement did not make sense every single word, but the prisoners had no choice. They were only to hold their weapons and prepare for the infected creatures’ assault.
"T-That's... Project Merida." That's the transcription of what Black List's Nano machine researcher said on his last breath. He was fed up with the inhuman nanomachine research experiment, so he secretly contacted the government and requested witness protection in exchange for information. However, as a result, many people were killed along with the informant in a terrorist bombing.
After 2 months had passed, what started off as a clue was actually a place - Merida, Spain. Although the Old Roman architecture weathered away and lost its original appearance, it still mesmerized the troops and got their attention. While the special task forces get ready for the mission, they hope that the beautiful city doesn't get wiped out by the nanomachine-augmented mutants. Just before the operation begins, one agent near the Merida Theater sends out a radio message to everyone.
"Strangely, there are no civilians around here. What's the situation on your side?"
There's a momentary silence as a heavy air descdends.
As soon as you feel that, the agent's piercing cry can be heard over the radio along with an eerie shriek...
Nearby the Tigris River, the origin of the cradle of civilization Mesopotamia, a hidden city is discovered. In this city, ziggurats that look similar to pyramids were found. While surveying the patterns on the structure, it has been revealed that state of the art technology existed there that seemed out of place with that area.
With that revelation, the world's most influential countries sent researchers to get the cutting edge technology, and Black List secretively started its research to complete their ghost machine experiment. However, while combining the unknown technology with the experimental subjects, an adverse reaction occurred, and they started to go reckless in the city.
The experimental subjects took humans as hosts and grew exponentially, leaving few survivors who were barely able to close off the city. High-level organizations in each country requested Global Risk and Black List to form an alliance and create a special task force that will be dispatched to the city to prevent the new discovery from being destroyed by killing the mutated experimental subjects.
An incomplete city, it's been about 5 months since they stopped the construction. Certain politicians were supporting the transfer of the capitals and a new city was being built, however, due to the business depressions and main supporting politicians' corruption scandals, the construction had to be stopped. Therefore the following politicians, who got involved in scandals, secretly made a deal with Blacklist to create social issues which is terrorizing the new city that they were building. And since the greedy executives of their own Blacklist was uncontrollable within themselves, Blacklist decides to send them and agrees with the politician’s offers. However, before they even start, somehow GlabalRisk started to interfere. Blacklist and GlobalRisk units, while facing one another in the ruined mall, instinctively feel something is going wrong. Inside the ruin mall, through heavy air, a Nano Machine’s horrible shriek echoes... In truth, the Blacklist headquarters set this up to get rid of both their own, uncontrollable, executive units and the GlobalRisk. How ironic. The very enemies who were facing one another a minute ago must now fight together to survive from Nano infections. "
A very old palace nestled in a small city in the southwestern part of Asia is the oldest existing architecture that the royal family still uses till this day. Even though this place is a scenic spot of historical interest of the fallen glory, it is crowded with tourists. Reports of missing tourists and residents suddenly started to emerge one after the other. The government in this area began an investigation when a numerous amounts of people disappeared at once. As a result, the investigation team discovered Black List's secret closed research lab that was developing the Ghost Mutant machines in the undergrounds of the palace and one of the experiments had escaped from the lab and started to take humans as hosts. Using humans as experimental specimens grew exponentially and the situation continued to worsen. Therefore, the government is trying to destroy the ghost experimental specimens with the cooperation of the culprit Black List and through the support of Global Risk.
A small port in a secluded city somewhere in Europe. The port was mainly used for small scale oil trades. Refineries and oil pipelines could be found in the surrounding areas, and off in the distance, ships transporting oil could be spotted. Then one day, workers began to disappear one by one.
In the process of investigating the incidents, a secret ship of the Black List was found anchored at the port. The Black List had given up on experimenting their Ghost Nanomachine on land, and had taken it to the sea. This ship was built in order to make it easier to dispose of their failed experiments out in the sea. As the ship dropped anchor in the secluded port, one of the experiments had successfully escaped. The experiment took the local people as hosts and infected them at an exponential rate, turning the small village into a pandemonium in no time. The government closed down the port right away, and at their request, an allied Special Weapons and Tactics squad comprised of members of both the Global Risk and the Black List was dispatched to destroy the frantic monster.

Afghanistan Uruzgan, the old battlefield where GR and BL fiercely fought each other. A fort was built amid the desert where the 'Operation Sandstorm' took place. The fort built by GR after the victory of 'Operation Sandstorm' was actually a lab where the last Nano Ghost virus is isolated. It's indeed a fort as there were a myriad of defending devices and guards due to the importance of the thing.
One afternoon just as calm as the others. To a GR mercenary who languidly guarded believing it would be safe just like before, something unfamiliar happened.
Horrible scream from behind and uncanny roar.
When he turned around, he saw it - the Nano Ghost infected creature that was supposed to disappear. Nano Ghost considered as inactive became active again and made an infected creature for an unknown reason Not only the troops in the fort couldn't dare to subdue the endless reviving infected creatures, but it looked almost impossible for them to survive because of spreading infection by their attacks.
When they couldn't pull the trigger for the fear, a radio message was transmitted.
[GRX special agents will be there soon. Hold the ground for a moment!]
It was rather harsh for him who couldn't even stand still to hold the ground against the swamping infected creatures. However, it was also a lucky misfortune as he was waiting for death without any hope for help before the message.
It was about one minute before the special agents would reach here. He and other GR mercenaries looked at the front holding their weapons.
Fighting against the fear of death the infected creature would bring together.
UN X-File Bureau, which mainly watched the whole world for dangerous technology and anomalies, was running after a dangerous technology 'Poltergeist engine'. The technology looked a technology of dream which levitated the user easily, but it had a critical flaw that causes irrevocable damage if the engine went out of control. Since it was world-widely spread and its flaw was inevitable, poltergeist engine is top priority dangerous object even for UN X-File Bureau.
UN X-File performed shutdown operations several times to stop development of the technology. However, when they removed the last blueprint of poltergeist engine, poltergeist engine complete products were already leaked out across the world. So they had no choice but to retrieve or destroy the engine when they find one.
X-File bureau agent came to Dubai beach's artificial island for that reason.
As they got the information there was a ride which can levitate anything regardless of objects' ingredients without using elasticity or lift force, X-File bureau realized it was a poltergeist engine and took action quickly. The island owner didn't recognize the technology's danger and thought it was just an expensive and fun ride; so he was very scared and promised full cooperation when he heard about its risk. However, something they didn't expect happened as their jobs usually do.
The affair occurred while agents were evacuating civilians in and around the island to prevent casualty beforehand. The workers constructing the island's decoration headed slowly to the ships to leave the island when they heard about the evacuation. Then, one of the agents got a repeating radio message.
[The area is infected with Nano Ghost virus. UNF agents will arrive soon to support; stop the spread of infection as much as possible before then.]
The sudden message puzzled the agents for a moment. Soon horrible screams could be heard from here and there. And uncanny roars followed.
X-File bureau agents grasped the situation and were preparing for the infected creatures' assault trying to suppress the fear.
A private resort somewhere in America.
Normally, this resort would’ve been crowded with tourists, but the government temporarily restricted access to it.
As mutants from all over the world started to attack humans, dignitaries have come here to strategize a way to annihilate this huge epidemic. They hired a coalition force made up of Global Risk and Black List to protect them in case of a mutant attack.
Everything has been extremely calm for the past 10 days.
However, the food supply group that went to town to obtain food made an emergency call to report the town has been completely devastated and the town’s peoples have vanished.
Previously, the coalition force had encountered such a situation and was attacked by mutants, so the mercenaries were on high alert in the blistering heat wave. However, it the midst of the heat wave, the mercenaries felt a chill down their spines, and so their fight for survival began.
Nothing had remained on where a giant wave had struck.
The area once filled with high-tech facilities was now left with steel frame and wreckage and soaked with trapped salt water. Sickening, metallic sea smell aroused and stung nose. It was the decaying smell of the wreckage and drowned bodies in this past city. The sun shone brightly on the ghostly downtown. The bright sun beam revealed the wreckage even more plainly.
A ripple from footstep appeared on a pool of salt water. But nobody was seen for the footstep. It was a Ghost unit.
The appearance of the Ghost unit here was unexpected. There was absolutely no target to kill or building to destroy in the flooded area. Unlikely from before, the arriving unit was composed of UNF mercenaries, the joint body of BL and GR. As UNF, their purpose was to search the infected creatures lost by the disaster.
The operation was carried out for the first time. Assumption was that the creatures would show no hostility, since Nano Ghost virus had originated from Ghost kit. Even if it might not be true, the Ghost kit was more advantageous to nullify the detection by eyesight than bare body during search.
However, the mission thought to be a simple search and experiment for tactics turned into hell once the Terminator had appeared.
There was not a lot of ways to fight against the hostile Nano infected creatures in the flooded area. The only way was to hide silently and run endlessly.

Only 3 hours ago...
This amusement park was filled with happiness and laughter, but now it’s dead silent.
Although the number of mutants have been steadily increasing throughout the world, they never attacked humans.
Also, to prevent worldwide hysteria, the media has highly regulated reporting the news about the mutants, so very few people know about the existence of them. However, not too long ago, the coalition force comprised of Global Risk and Black List has been sent to an amusement park located in the suburb of London to investigate the mutants and rescue any survivors of a sudden and bizarre attack.
As soon as they arrived in the demolished amusement park, the coalition force began a search operation.
Shortly after, they find an alien form running towards them.
A few days earlier several researchers on the mutant plague had heard about a ruin deep in the Amazon jungle. Normally this wouldn't have come to their attention; however, these ruins were said to house several slates which depicted creatures very similar to the mutants. Not wanting to waste any opportunity to glean some insight, these researchers deployed a small team to investigate the ruins.
The Alpha team that was deployed had not been heard from for the last 24 hours.
Now, a new team was being deployed to investigate the disappearance of the Alpha team, and if they could not locate them, then finish the investigation of the ruins.
The captain was only there for security purposes, but he had a sinking feeling about this operation.
The makeshift facility to analyze the ruins had been more or less untouched. Most of the equipment was still functional and the scaffolding was still upright. The only oddity, was that all the equipment was placed so haphazardly, like the previous inhabitants had suddenly vanished.
As he was surveying the camp site, he heard a scream echoing from out of the nearby cave system. A scream filled with malevolence and terror, but not unfamiliar to him.
The mutants were upon them...
Reinforcement needed against mutants, lead by a large Predator! Hurry to the circus and help fight the evil forces. Or are you one of them?
Dark Village is known as the place where code name "Predator" was resurrected. It has been quarantined and blockaded because of its highly contaminated mutant contagions.
Originally, this village, located on the outskirts of the city, was famous for having a resort filled with many visitors and tourists. One day, however, the majority of the villagers mysteriously vanished and the villagers that were able to escape do not remember what had happened.
In the midst of the dead-end investigation, a villager who vaguely remembers the turn of events on that mysterious night appeared. While investigating her claim, it became obvious that Predator had returned.
Before this incident, there existed a being known to local villagers as the "Blue Devil" who couldn't be killed so it was and has been locked away. How did the "Blue Devil" break out of its seal?
The Global Risk and Black List's Joint Operations Headquarters is relentlessly investigating the "Dark Village;" the epicenter of numerous questions and the start of the curse.
It was around late afternoon when Griffin had heard of the accident at EMD Vault.
‘EMD Vault’ was an underground facility; the core of new weapon control installation they were making. The importance of this facility-from electricity to run the control installation and construction all the way to supplying the power for the numerous amount of new weapon to be produced was indescribable. But the accident! Such was the news out of the blue to Griffin who was the head of the construction.
He entered the control room and shook his head after viewing the internal video of the vault. It seemed that Mutation Ghost virus had leaked and was the cause of the madness, since the infected creatures of Mutation Ghost were running amok over the corpses of victims. It was mysterious of how the virus had leaked, but there was absolutely no time to solve it. Nor it was hard to hastily open the underground bulkhead and send suppression force, because it was unknown how far the virus had spread. At that moment, however, a secret plan had flashed through his mind.
He unlocked the underground prison and armory. Then he fixed a microphone in the control room and made an announcement:
“Ah, testing. Greetings, dear prisoners. This is Griffin from Blitz. I’m in charge of this bio-weapon control facility. Currently Mutation Ghost virus has leaked in where you are right now, the underground. Unluckily, we already have some infected ones, too. But I’m not saying you people are hopeless. The armory is nearby, so you are welcome to pick up your weapon, bring back good old memories of Mercenaries, and kill as many infected creatures as you want. Once the situation is controlled enough for our suppression team to enter, I will definitely consider your release. Until then, good luck.”
How do they kill that powerful creatures, and what does he mean by ‘controlled enough for their suppression team to enter’? Moreover, a mere ‘consideration’ of release… Griffin’s announcement did not make sense every single word, but the prisoners had no choice. They were only to hold their weapons and prepare for the infected creatures’ assault.
A war hero, once appointed as a knight, betrayed his country by stealing top secret research documents and went into hiding in this mansion. Decades ago, this mansion was the place where the forgotten biological weapon with the code name "Predator" surfaced for the very first time. At the time, the media covered up the news of hellish widespread deaths as simply an emerging epidemic. However, not many people were aware that the incident was the beginning of the research of "Ghost Mutant Machine".
A mysterious incident occurred at a small ordinary town nearby the mansion. The majority of the residents disappeared and the place turned into a ghost town overnight. No matter where you look in the town, you will not be able to find any people.
Global Risk and Black List's Joint Operations Headquarter decides to investigate the deserted mansion as it may have been the source of all the recent events.
According to intelligence, there were reports of a mysterious blue light hovering over the mansion when the previous incident occurred.
'We're wasting our time...' muttered a downtrodden mercenary.
The mercenaries had been part of an investigation in a small city in southwestern Asia. Their ragtag group had comprised of both Black List and Global Risk agents, who initially greatly distrusted each other. But now they were forced to rely on each other due to the threat of a mutagen outbreak.
After clearing out an ancient palace near the city the group expanded their search. They needed to be sure every mutant was eliminated or the threat of an outbreak would return.
They had been searching for two days now, but the palace was significantly larger than anyone had previously anticipated. They decided to split up and search individual areas to cover more ground.
It took about 4 hours before one of them radio'd in to the others. The mercenary had found a hidden garden that had been partially grown over by nature. Inside the garden was a dead mutant with human blood on its hands.
None of the mercenaries confessed to being attacked. After all, who would when faced with certain death. So they all concluded to stay in the area until the time when one of them would turn.
And so the clock ticked the seconds down, until they would find the threat among them...
Nearby the Tigris River, the origin of the cradle of civilization Mesopotamia, a hidden city is discovered. In this city, ziggurats that look similar to pyramids were found. While surveying the patterns on the structure, it has been revealed that state of the art technology existed there that seemed out of place with that area.
With that revelation, the world's most influential countries sent researchers to get the cutting edge technology, and Black List secretively started its research to complete their ghost machine experiment. However, while combining the unknown technology with the experimental subjects, an adverse reaction occurred, and they started to go reckless in the city.
The experimental subjects took humans as hosts and grew exponentially, leaving few survivors who were barely able to close off the city. High-level organizations in each country requested Global Risk and Black List to form an alliance and create a special task force that will be dispatched to the city to prevent the new discovery from being destroyed by killing the mutated experimental subjects.
A private resort somewhere in America.
Normally, this resort would’ve been crowded with tourists, but the government temporarily restricted access to it.
As mutants from all over the world started to attack humans, dignitaries have come here to strategize a way to annihilate this huge epidemic. They hired a coalition force made up of Global Risk and Black List to protect them in case of a mutant attack.
Everything has been extremely calm for the past 10 days.
However, the food supply group that went to town to obtain food made an emergency call to report the town has been completely devastated and the town’s peoples have vanished.
Previously, the coalition force had encountered such a situation and was attacked by mutants, so the mercenaries were on high alert in the blistering heat wave. However, it the midst of the heat wave, the mercenaries felt a chill down their spines, and so their fight for survival began.
"An incomplete city, it's been about 5 months since they stopped the construction.
Certain politicians were supporting the transfer of the capitals and a new city was being built, however, due to the business depressions and main supporting politicians' corruption scandals, the construction had to be stopped.
Therefore the following politicians, who got involved in scandals, secretly made a deal with Blacklist to create social issues which is terrorizing the new city that they were building.
And since the greedy executives of their own Blacklist was uncontrollable within themselves, Blacklist decides to send them and agrees with the politician’s offers.
However, before they even start, somehow GlabalRisk started to interfere.
Blacklist and GlobalRisk units, while facing one another in the ruined mall, instinctively feel something is going wrong.
Inside the ruin mall, through heavy air, a Nano Machine’s horrible shriek echoes...
In truth, the Blacklist headquarters set this up to get rid of both their own, uncontrollable, executive units and the GlobalRisk.
How ironic. The very enemies who were facing one another a minute ago must now fight together to survive from Nano infections.
"
A very old palace nestled in a small city in the southwestern part of Asia is the oldest existing architecture that the royal family still uses till this day. Even though this place is a scenic spot of historical interest of the fallen glory, it is crowded with tourists.
Reports of missing tourists and residents suddenly started to emerge one after the other. The government in this area began an investigation when a numerous amounts of people disappeared at once. As a result, the investigation team discovered Black List's secret closed research lab that was developing the Ghost Mutant machines in the undergrounds of the palace and one of the experiments had escaped from the lab and started to take humans as hosts.
Using humans as experimental specimens grew exponentially and the situation continued to worsen. Therefore, the government is trying to destroy the ghost experimental specimens with the cooperation of the culprit Black List and through the support of Global Risk.
Something's not right in this club!
Located at the heart of Anatolia, Ankara is the capital of the Republic of Turkey, a city that preserves the ancient architecture and narrow streets of the past. However, rather than the laughter of children, gunshots echo around the narrow streets of densely packed buildings. Most regions of the city are already devastated by the attacks of Black List. Only several areas are left as defense bases of Global Risk and the Turkish military. Elite troops of Global Risk have been dispatched for support, and should arrive shortly.
Exactly one day ago, the Turkish government was informed about new drug trades in Ankara. According to the report, the drugs were traded in gaseous forms. The government asked Global Risk for support, and launched a mop-up operation. However, they found out that it was not gaseous drugs, but actually a new type of chemical weapon. To make matters worse, Black List was behind the whole operation. The mop-up itself was successful, but it was followed by a huge counterattack from Black List that is still raging on with no sign of a cease-fire.
Narrow streets and ancient sites define the face of Ankara. Hear the shots ring between the building as Black List and Global Risk fight it out underneath the Turkish sun.
The Bermuda Triangle, located near the State of Miami, US.
Black List's surveillance network caught an establishment similar to Global Risk's underwater base. Black List became suspicious of Global Risk's activities after detecting vessels of Global Risk in the Bermuda Triangle and the sea nearby. After searching through the Devil's Triangle, Black List found a giant underwater establishment.
Black List decides to destroy the underwater establishment.
However, the biggest obstacle to the mission, the radar base, is located in Puerto Rico which is near the Bermuda Triangle. Now Black List must destroy the radar base and the underwater base simultaneously. Black List needs to destroy the radar base first to have the eyes of Global Risk focused on the radar base and go for the underwater base in the meanwhile.
First target is the radar base in the east of Puerto Rico. Black List starts to carry out their mission to destroy Global Risk's underwater base.

- BL Mission¦ Blow up the warehouse and secure the biochemical weapon.
- GR Mission¦ Defend the warehouse.
The bunker was located in the middle of permafrost land of Siberia. It was a forgotten secret base of the Soviet Union during the Cold War, warehouse for researching biochemical weapon. It could naturally guard itself against intruders due to blizzard and barren environment of extreme cold and since danger of spread was very low in case of research result leakage, it was the nature-blessed fortress for biochemical weapon research. But when the Cold War had ended followed by sudden change of the Soviet Union to Russia, presence of the bunker base was forgotten. Initially it was temporarily closed but later permanently closed for major loss and cover-up of associated documents during the system change.
However, this specter of the Cold War that could be forgotten once and for all revealed itself to the world again when blizzards died away from global warming. The Russian government realized that the base researched on biochemical weapon and requested GR for its disposal, since they were worried that the biochemical weapon might fall into the hands of some corrupt military authorities. In such matter GR was very trustworthy.
While GR took this dangerous mission and headed to Siberia, information about the base had leaked to Russian mafia. They rated highly on the biochemical weapon’s monetary value and requested BL for securing.
Elite agents of GR arrived at the troublesome base and performed a series of disposal process. Luckily no one seemed to access the base in the meantime. But the base had a poor condition. The weapon in warehouse was leaked out due to aged facility, which made securing the research result impossible. But the warehouse’s secret information was maintained well, so with proper equipment disposal was possible.
Then they heard a boom. Special force of BL breached the wall and trespassed in. BL’s method was extremely dangerous at this situation. With purpose on seizing the biochemical weapon, they would surely blow up the warehouse door.
The elite agents of GR checked their weapon and prepared for a battle to stop the mutual destruction.
The middle eastern war began when Israel bombed a city in Egypt. The reasoning behind the war was the existing religious differences as well as Egypt Government not allowing passage of Israel boats through their canal. That canal was an important one that connected to the Indian Sea and the Mediterrenean Sea, and because of this limitation that had affected Israel in a negative way it had led them to attack Egypt.
Israel attack the cities with the silence of the US and take over the important strategic points with paratroopers. UN and 10 other countries fear the war will become bigger and speak to the world negatively about the military actions of Israel. Israel has won the military war but have now been branded as invaders.
The Israeli Military decides to back away as soon as they destroy this "Castle" that apparently holds some important factors.
But, because they are worried about the negative press and how the world thinks of they, they decide to hire "Black List" the elites of infiltration and sabotage. The Egypt Government also decides to hire "Global Risk" to protect the place and end this war on a high.
Another war begins with the end of the war on the line between two rival factions.
In the negotiation table for containing the Middle East, a large amount of money was handed by the self-governing Kurds in Israel. Unbeknownst to all, this money was used to support the segregationist Kurdish guerilla organization in Turkey. They used those funds to request a mission to the BL to destroy the Ceyhan oil pipeline.
If the gateway of Europe’s oil, the Ceyhan pipeline, were to be destroyed, this would put Israel at a great disadvantage diplomatically, and European countries as well as Turkey would react fervently.
In order to prevent this, the Mossad (Israeli intelligence agency) requests the GR to stop the terrorist attack.
Now the BL and the GR are about to clash in Europe’s oil gateway, Ceyhan, Turkey.
BL Mission - Destroy the Reservoir and Canal System.
GR Mission - Defend the Reservoir and Canal System.
A miracle happened in the desert of one country.
A vast amount of underground water was found in the gap of bedrock in a random desert.
This leads to a huge development in income and population growth by using the unlimited natural resources after pump and pipe installment was finished.
However, there were those who viewed this development with anger. They were the natives that lived in the middle of the desert and depended on the Oasis.
The Oasis dried up after construction and their wrath obviously went towards the big city's authorities who used the water from the natives and built an empire.
The natives who couldn't just standby and watch the path of their destruction came together and hired Black List to destroy the Reservoir System. On the other hand, Global Risk who kept their eyes on the Black List, persuaded the desert nation's authorities to hire them and defend the System.
Now there will come a great battle that puts one nation and one native's water of life at stake in the midst of desert's sandstorm.
In a northern checkpoint located in the outskirts of North America, what seems to be a random shooting takes place involving about 10 terrorists. After the incident, security forces investigated the surroundings and found hidden ammunition and bombs. They realized it wasn't a random act.
The security forces receive intelligence that terrorists with the same ideology and code of conduct are planning a bomb attack downtown, so they heightened security checks in urban and foreign residential areas. With the security forces' efforts, 3 followers were shot dead and 5 wanted terrorists committed suicide, so the bomb threat seemed to be stopped.
However, the security forces discover this was only a diversion, and the real bombing wasgoing to be conducted by Black List, so they hired Global Risk to end the downtown terror.
This Drillship was taken over and is used by Global Risk to harvest resources for their missions. Work as Black List to destroy it or Global Risk to avoid destruction and secure it for your faction!
The situation now requires more than just a peacekeeping troop stationed. NATO and the US need to actively engage. To have the two join in, the government of Norway decides to send additional veteran special forces to Kabul, Afghanistan.
The decision is certainly an unfavorable one for the terrorists in Afghanistan who is funded by the rebel forces of Afghanistan. If the government of Norway sends their veteran special forces to Kabul, there will be a military-wide war campaign against the terrorists to wipe them out from the south of Afghanistan. The rebel forces of Afghanistan and the terrorists request Black List to prevent Norway from dispatching troops to avoid the combat.
'Command, this is Bravo Actual. Requesting confirmation of Tango activity, over.'
'Bravo Actual, This is Command, please stand by for confirmation.'
Global Risk had received a tip off from implanted agents about a high profile target that Black List was poised to strike. In anticipation of the impending assault they deployed a squad to the area and began a stakeout in the nearby factory watching for any sign of the attackers.
They had been waiting for hours and were starting to tense up in anticipation. The leader of the squad had gotten impatient and requested an update on the position of their target.
Several minutes passed in silence before the radio crackled to life again.
'Bravo Actual, we have confirmation on Tango presence. You are cleared to engage, over.'
'Acknowledged Command, Bravo Out.'
And with a quick check on their weapons, Bravo squad moved to eliminate the enemy.
Beverly Hills’ luxury hotel called ‘Hills Town’.
Today wasn’t like any other day. Tourists couldn't be found anywhere around Hills Town hotel. In a few hours, an important deal that can change the faith of a country will occur.
This deal, which has been pushed secretly under the support of the U.S, was targeting succession of power from a leader of an unknown country to Liberations that will end this war. Furthermore, once the liberations get hold of the power, US who was behind Liberations will be able to influence the country. And the leader of the unknown country will receive part of gold along with a protection while he is being exiled to the 3rd country.
However, this plan gets caught by BL’s information network.
Naturally, BL would never want such a country to be controlled by the U.S. On top of that, for their profit, the civil war needed to be prolonged. So, the BL plans to terrorize the Hills Town hotel and take the gold which was requested by the leader. This way, they can threaten the leader and cancel the deal.
On the day of the deal.
The BL’s mercenaries encounter GR whom they didn’t expect. GR elites were called and located inside the hotel.
Now the operation will cost a lot more than BL would’ve expected. But they cannot take a single step back.
Would BL really be able to cancel this deal? Would GR be able to protect the gold and stop the terror from BL?
US Department of Defense has decided to develop a secret missile base in Mexico that is capable of shooting missiles into space. Terrorist organizations that have discovered these plans collected funds to hire Black List to destroy the secret missile base in Mexico. The US Department of Defense soon learns of the terrorists' plot, but does not wish to formally intervene for fear of other nations discovering their base. To maintain plausible deniability, the Department of Defense hires Global Risk to prevent the terrorists from attacking the base…
Not too long ago, Global Risk bought a deserted mine.
Black List, suspicious of Global Risk's motives of purchasing an abandoned mine which supposedly has deposits of coal and other resources remaining, sends men undercover to scope out the vicinity of the mine and soon discovers the importance of it.
The mine was none other than Global Risk's new supply base.
As the conflict among countries worsen over foreign concessions, the most vital thing for both the mercenary organizations is securing weapons and capital during the proxy wars.
Knowing the location of Global Risk's new armory puts Black List at an enormous advantage.
So Black List wants to seize this opportunity and attack the deserted mine by secretly sending men to Global Risk's base.
A colorful oriental market square.
* BL Mission¦Destroy GR munitions and explosives.
* GR Mission¦Defend munitions and explosives against BL.
The world was full of joy and excitement for New Year’s Day. Santorini, a resort area in Greece was no exception, even though the world was still exposed vulnerably to the threat of war and terrorism, and Santorini also was unstable once from a number of terror threats from BL. But, as an effort to forget all these anxiety momentarily with New Year’s festiveness, unique buildings of Santorini -the harmony of white and indigo which resembled the blue sea and white sandy beach- hung New Year-decorations in clusters, and streets between each building were full of crowd.
Meanwhile, aside the joyfulness of the New Year festival, mercenaries with GR badge was moving busily. GR’s purpose was to transfer explosives and munitions to safe area, in order to promote civilians’ security from a series of BL terror threats. Some critics argued that the military movement might break the joy of festival and cause anxiety among civilians and visitors, but it was the operation for those who might feel anxious. Agents of GR had to bear the disapproving public gaze during the operation, and they hoped that their action was merely a fuss.
However, such hope had shattered into pieces along with the sound of explosion at Santorini downtown.
The site of explosion was terrible; heavily wounded civilians and visitors screamed out in agony in the thick smoke, the streets of the delighted New Year festival turned into hell. It must be the terrorism of BL, although the presence of BL mercenary who executed the terror was unseen. GR units were directly sent to the explosion site and strived to cool down the chaos.
However, at that moment, as the surveillance became loose, lurking BL mercenaries attacked the explosives and munitions. Civilian casualties were the only a decoy of BL to draw GR’s attention.
The remaining GR mercenaries clenched their weapons to prevent further casualties.
At the Chinese’s New Year people are ready to have fun, but both factions are still fighting. Global Risk forces has been secretly transporting important cargo to the staging area. Once the Black List found out, they sent their special forces to destroy the area.
The port in Europe unfrequented by people is now in operation again.
The port has been the place for under the table trade of oils among European countries. Until recently, the port has been closed but is now open again due to continued disputes and stakes of each country involved in it. However, an incident caused the workers at the port to evacuate.
The incident started after Global Risk finding out the fact the country who had loss from oil sales due to under the table trade between some European and Middle Eastern countries hired Black List for a mission. The commander of Global Risk who expected Black List to arrive at the port murmured as he heard the news about the invaders…
Today will be the end of your kind, this is the revenge from Ceyhan.
Nerve wrecking showdowns between Blacklist and Global Risk within this oil refinery!
'Sundown's almost here,’ murmured one of the mercs.
'We move at Dusk, just wait till then and keep your finger off the trigger.' barked the captain.
Global Risk had been employed to protect the power generator for a nearby hidden research facility. This generator required a large amount of fuel, which it routinely received via shipments, however it also produced a large amount of waste which became a hassle for nearby towns and areas.
In response to this annoyance, Black List was hired to eliminate the generator. A squad of mercenaries were mobilized to strike at dusk, right before the security detail was to be switched out. The squad infiltrated the facility and held a low profile while waiting for the time to strike.
As the last of the sun's rays feebly crept over the horizon, the squad prepped their weapons. The captain smirked as he turned to his men.
'Showtime mercs... Let's turn off the lights.'
Global Navigation Satellite Sytem (GNSS). It’s a satellite-based system that provides the location of its users. GR was able to acquire this system with the funds it accumulated through its numerous missions, and is now able to carry those missions out even faster.
Terrorist groups have realized that their plans have been stopped by the GR a lot faster than before, so they decided to ask the BL for help. The BL had been suspicious of the GR as well, so they started to look into the matter. The BL followed the GR after one of their counter-terrorism operations, and were able to find their base. There, they hacked into the GR’s communication system and found the location of their base, which was the Satellite Base in Florida.
At the same time, they were also able to find out that the GR had been tracking their location this whole time through the Satellite Base. The leaders of the BL give orders to destroy the GR’s Satellite Base.
“Destroy them. Do not let them find us again.”
It’s another peaceful day in Andalusia, an area located in the south of the Iberian peninsula. However, the eerie peacefulness feels like some kind of calm before the storm.?
Last month, the Spanish government released a statement of its position about eradicating narcotics and asked Global Risk to investigate the recent drug trafficking activities taking place in Spain. Global Risk received intelligence suggesting Black List was the mastermind behind smuggling and selling illegal drugs in Spain in order to fund military operations.
After receiving Global Risk’s report, the Spanish government decided to respond immediately with a combat operation to block Black List’s money supply. In The operation was set to start in Malaga, the city where the drug trafficking activities were taking place. Global Risk troops planned on ambushing Black List men by setting up base at a secret factory.
However, Global Risk’s operation was not going according to plan. Black List operatives used the intentionally leaked intelligence to their advantage by coming up with a countermeasure to demolish Global Risk’s base and eliminate the troops.
An island off the coast of the US serves as the secret base for the nuclear submarine 'Igis' that will provide a new strategic capability to Global Risk. GR and BL fight each other across the globe to fulfill their clients' requests. In the relationship between the two, GR only accepts peacekeeping missions whereas BL has no qualms with guerilla tactics or performing terrorist activities.
Ready your weapons, gather your teammates and stop the opposing team from reaching their goals in Subway!
At the top of a building in the middle of downtown. Many months ago, construction had started at a pharmaceutical company’s building. However, not too long ago, that same company went bankrupt, and as a result, the building was sold for dirt cheap and closed for good. Naturally, the construction was suspended. More recently, neighbors began complaining about some noise that was coming from the top of the building in the wee hours of the morning. The GR suspected something was up. As a result of the investigation, the GR found out about a chemical weapon that was being developed. Special Forces were dispatched immediately in order to seize the weapon and secure the area. Not too long after they took over the building, an unidentified helicopter passed by the building. According to an agent’s report, it seemed like they had seen something move in the shadows. The commander of the Special Forces broke out in a cold sweat, and ordered his squad to get ready to fight. They… The Ghost Units had arrived.
‘What on earth is here in this cold room...’
Elite agents of GR thought while shivering in the piercing cold as they were searching inside the Cooling Chamber of nuclear fusion laboratory.
The laboratory had drawn the national attention as well as the whole world. Despite the few support, the nuclear fusion technology was about to be completed with ceaseless effort and researches from the researchers.
However, few hours before, an unknown intruder was noticed in the Cooling Chamber where it was extremely cold for anyone to enter. In the Cooling Chamber where a normal person could never sustain the cold without special equipment, the intruder touched sensors everywhere in disorder, without being caught by surveillance cameras.
The researchers were frustrated. Whether it was a Nano-infected creature thought to be wiped out several years ago or a special force of BL, the presence inside the chamber could definitely threaten their imminent success of the research. They blamed themselves on inattention that no one would dare to enter the freezing space, since it was not sustainable for humans and even machines. Fortunately enough, the intruder did not reveal any threat so far.
Finally, the researchers urgently called GRX team, who sensed that the situation was uncommon and arrived to the laboratory at once. The GRX agents had been ‘specially processed’ before they came, and soon opened the firmly closed chamber door and began searching for the intruder.
Shortly after the search began, an agent in the lead showed back of his fist to halt the rest behind him. Even the veteran himself in numerous special missions seemed tensed up. And he said in a low voice,
“…a Fury Ghost. Focus on the sound around you.”
The US government and UN were jointly developing weapons at a secret underground laboratory. However, one of the researchers betrays them and runs away with a transparent ghost tool kit. The stolen ghost toolkit gets passed onto unknown armed forces and these special forces request Black List to destroy the secret underground laboratory by using the toolkit. In order to resolve this issue without letting the world know, UN X-File Department of Management requests the special mission team GRX of Global Risk for cooperation. The incident leads to head-to-head collision between Black List and Global Risk.
In Europe, somewhere deep in a forest, GR elite agents were unusually in a hurry. They were being pursued. This group of experienced mercenaries are supposedly used to this kinds of retreats, but this time it was different, fear could be seen in their eyes.
This mission wasn't planned to involve any combats in the first place. All they needed to do was to explore Blitz's Lab in a castle that's hidden in the woods, then secure it. Things started to get worse as the agents ahead were pursued by unknown enemies. The enemies couldn't be seen but it was obvious to notice they were there. Strange breathing and footsteps were heard. At first, they thought it was BL's ghost team, but no, it was different. There were killing enough that the GR agents could sense it in the air around them. Since they weren't seen, they were forced to pay attention to the sound... What could it be?
Suddenly, GR soldiers began to fall, they returned fire, aiming at the unseen enemies. However, all they could see was their own blood splashing everywhere.
There was only one agent standing. Terrified he tried the detection sensor which was taken from the mission. Fortunately, he was able to spot one of the unknown enemies.
Their bodies and their weapons were burning in flame, as if they just came out of hell.

At the Chinese’s New Year people are ready to have fun, but both factions are still fighting. Global Risk forces has been secretly transporting important cargo to the staging area. Once the Black List found out, they sent their special forces to destroy the area.
Have you ever imagined being able to play as a spy and have a chance to act when no one is waiting? In this mode, you need to be quick to clear your own team, annihilate the opposing team or reveal who is camouflaged among its. The enemy is everywhere.
“I'm here to report a significant intelligence found from the data.”
“Finally!”
Bishop was delighted by the news raising his hands. He didn't sleep watching the data for 10 hours. The report made his effort vain, but that didn't upset him. He found his gesture a bit too informal and said to the liaison official pretending he didn't notice it.
“Now, tell me.”
“Yes. Analyzing the intelligence, we found a significant detection was recorded when the sand storm subsided for awhile. We failed to notice it because they were a very small group and detected only for an instance, and there were too many similarly shaped noises.”
The official handed over a series of radar images.
“Look at the radar images. You will find the red point moving toward the southwest. It's the shortest route back to the BL front. Considering their number, they might be a special force returning after an operation.”
“You haven't reported any damage from an enemy operation, right?”
“No, that's what I'm wondering as well. They might have installed traps that activate when we move. ”
Not a bad idea, but then they would have too short time for such an operation as they could infiltrate at least after the battle started. About 4~5 hours for traveling back and forth. What would be the task for them to be able to complete. Turning over the pages of the special operation manual in his mind, one possibility flashed on Bishop.
“It's a rescue mission. It must be a rescue mission.”
He said feeling the chills.
Strathmore. Who was the one you rescued taking this much damage?
2. Together Behind the Curtain
Strathmore ordered to retreat.
Because the sand storm made a chance and the enemy's eyes were on the fierce battles in Chora Valley, he could rescue Colonel Waters in one piece and issued the order instantly when the team returned. The mission to save just one person, Colonel Waters, cost too much, but his intelligence was worth the sacrifice.
*
“I was demoted.”
Returning to the battlefield, Colonel Waters said in the sand storm. He lost a lot of weight as he had been hiding waiting in the stalled front for the rescue conserving water and rations. However, his eyes were flaring as always.
“No, it's more like I was purged.”
He suppressed the igniting anger sighing and continued the words.
“I was looking forward to the fight against enemies so much. You know how much I hate the desk jobs?”
Strathmore nodded. Whenever he visited him, Waters held and shook the desk expressing he wanted to get out of the damn desk with his body.
“So when I was assigned to Uruzgan, I was more than happy. To think about it now, I was an idiot. They sent me here because I refused the offer.”
“The offer?”
“Yes. Once I got a message from ZTI.”
ZTI…! Strathmore was surprised by hearing the name he suspected from the start.
“They tried to recruit me. Me sustaining the position in BL. It's quite attractive to get money from both of them, but , it's not for free, right? They would ask some 'requests' and want me to be a spy. I refused it because I didn't need that much money or want to betray BL. Soon I was assigned here. I was delighted at first, but when I arrived here, I was sent into the deep inside the front and storming enemies welcomed me; then I realized I walked into my own grave.”
“I see. By the way, why have you infiltrated into the supply base?”
Strathmore asked him what he was wondering. Puzzled, Waters asked back.
“Supply base? Infiltration? What is it?”
Waters noticed something wrong and made a face with fury.
“Damn! That greenhorn!. The greenhorn called Costa drove me into this place. He said we needed to strengthen the base to guard the radar facility.”
Strathmore realized he came to here because of Costa, he hurried back to the front to chase him. He needed to catch Costa as soon as possible.
However, Costa was already gone when they got back to the front.
Leaving many doubts to the battlefield, Strathmore ordered to retreat to prevent further damage as he achieved the part of his plans.
Of course, he issued an order to give chase to Costa.
3. Re-encounter
Costa was urging the pilot.
“Damn! Can you make it faster?”
“Shouting won't make it possible. If we fly in this weather, we die.”
“We die anyway, if we don't take off now!”
Costa shouted with rage losing his usual calmness. His shout was loud enough to be heard even if the rainstorm was making uproarious noises.
Everything was as planned. Uruzgan's Colonel Waters walked into the trap designed by the higher-ups. He just needed to push Colonel Waters into the future front. It's a simple job, and he did it faithfully. When Colonel Waters arrived at the target point, the GR front expanded just like magic. It must be that his higher-ups have contacts with not only BL's leaders but also GR's. Waters was isolated. Soon he will be eliminated for sure.
Then Strathmore appeared. It was not expected. He was supposed to be bound due to the toll from Nangpa La. No, he was not even a variable for the plan. What Costa could do to deal with Strathmore is just to divert his eyes and run away.
It was ad hoc and about to fail now. Costa was losing hope. Strathmore was pursuing him faster than expected.
*
Strathmore barely found the intel about Costa's whereabout and his destination. His destination was the air base near Uruzgan airport. It was obvious he was planning to use the plane from the base to escape.
Strathmore, who was planing to leave Uruzgan with Waters to report or reveal ZTI's intervention, changed his direction to the air base. Interrogation with Costa will reveal the details of ZTI's intervention more clearly.
When he arrived at the base, Costa's plane couldn't take off due to the nasty weather luckily. However, good news always comes with bad news; he had unexpected companies.
Bishop's advance team.
With additional analysis of the anti-personnel radar's data, Bishop detected another small troop headed to the air base and sent a team to chase it. He didn't know who the team rescued was. However, massive harassing tactics for the rescue mission showed how valuable the 'VIP' was.
Bishop felt confident when he saw Strathmore's units were gathering before the air base, and began attack to GR to stop the plane's take-off.
Strathmore was quite confused because of sudden encounter with GR and their attack, but he had no choice. He ordered to fight back and requested reinforcement. Also he headed to the transport ship to capture despicable Costa.
The battle began from different motives and misunderstandings, the two sides wanted the same.
Putting down the enemy.
Another fierce battle between two rivals, GR and BL, started again.
'Voodoo Actual in position. Waiting for go clearance.' radioed the Black List mercenary.
Black List had been investigating the rumour of a Global Risk facility that was performing research in a mountain range in Alaska. The information they had acquired indicated that the research being performed could harbor disastrous consequences for regions they were operating in. Projected civilian casualties were well beyond acceptable limits.
As a result they organized a small squad of elite operatives to navigate the harsh arctic environment and infiltrate the facility during a blizzard. The squad deployed to the nearest friendly facility and waited for ideal weather conditions. Once a strong enough squall rolled in, they set out on their mission.
It had been hours since their trek began, and the blizzard began to clear up. Luckily, by the time visibility was restored and could become a potential issue, the squad had already arrived outside the target. Now they just had to get clearance to begin the operation.
The radio crackled to life.
'Voodoo Actual, Operation: Black Ice is cleared for go. Begin infiltration.'
The mercs primed their C4 charges and got to work.
Think fast and plan your strategy!
Hurry up before it's too late!
The bomb is about to explode and you have a very limited time to stop it.
The street battle between Global Risk and Black List has been going on for more than 3 hours in an unknown East Coast city of America.
An official report has not been released on why Global Risk and Black List are fighting, but one thing is for sure: Global Risk is on the defensive. Therefore, Global Risk decides to take haven in an abandoned theater located at the heart of the city and receives what may be the last delivery of supplies for the counterattack. Black List is well aware the abandoned theater is in a strategic location, so they have to do whatever it takes to constantly attack Global Risk to maintain control.
Black Risk plans to raid the abandoned theater to seize the Global Risk’s supplies, set up a logistics base, and achieve an unrevealed goal.
Soldiers of the Black List made a bold move and assumed control of the Air Force One. Global Risk is preparing to take the plane back with a daring plan. Which side will be succesful is yours to decide. Take part in this operation, eliminate the enemy with a headshot!
The Roman amphitheater--once popular for fights among beasts and duels between gladiators--is protected as a historical site. However, below the amphitheater exists a secret base of Global Risk, dedicated to creating powerful new weapons. "Directional nano particle" is a future technology Global Risk has invested in for the last decade. The technology enables the control of nano particles with strong explosive ability to minimize damage on one's own forces and inflict greater damage on the enemy. If directional nano particles are sprayed, firearms cannot be used in the area since only a spark would be needed to cause a massive explosive reaction. Black List has discovered the secret base of Global Risk and invades the base to steal thenew technology. Sensing the impending invasion, the commander of the secret base utilizes the new technology and engages the invaders in melee combat to protect the base.

The Bermuda Triangle, located near the State of Miami, US.
Black List's surveillance network caught an establishment similar to Global Risk's underwater base. Black List became suspicious of Global Risk's activities after detecting vessels of Global Risk in the Bermuda Triangle and the sea nearby. After searching through the Devil's Triangle, Black List found a giant underwater establishment.
Black List decides to destroy the underwater establishment.
However, the biggest obstacle to the mission, the radar base, is located in Puerto Rico which is near the Bermuda Triangle. Now Black List must destroy the radar base and the underwater base simultaneously. Black List needs to destroy the radar base first to have the eyes of Global Risk focused on the radar base and go for the underwater base in the meanwhile.
First target is the radar base in the east of Puerto Rico. Black List starts to carry out their mission to destroy Global Risk's underwater base.
Just a year.
It took only a year to drag somewhat democratic nation A in Africa all the way into the bottom. The war caused by rebellion of minority race within the nation had spread throughout the whole nation as France joined the war following the Muslim extremist involvement and BL mercenaries from the minority background returned to their nation. Finally, France requested GR to enter the battlefield and the war was settled, but that one-year period was just enough to inflict a huge damage to civilians in the nation A.
Fortunately France actively engaged in nation A’s post-war restoration. Perhaps it was a belated apology for leaving them with a big wound, once for colonizing the country before the civil war, and another for direct involvement during the civil war. This currently ongoing construction of bridge was also a part of the restoration project.
However, in this supposedly peaceful construction site, a tinderbox of war occurred again. Minority mercenaries who were on guerilla warfare after defeat hiding in mountainous region assaulted the restoration site backed by BL support. The top of yet unconnected bridge became the site of terror.
But very soon, France was furious on cruelty of BL and mercenaries, and sent war helicopters to trace them and in the meantime, requested nearby-stationing GR an urgent response.
BL-occupied terror site gradually turned into the battlefield between GR and BL where gunfire, helicopter’s roar, scream were rampant all around, as if it was a small world with proxy war
Peace seemed to be far from the nation A.

A strong explosion occurs in a US Embassy located in Cebu City, the second most significant metropolitan center in the Philippines, due to a truck carrying 230kg worth of explosions crashing into the main entrance of the building.
The terrorist explosion was committed by none other than Black List that was hired by countries involved in the Middle East Conflict. As the situation goes out of control, the UN announces the Black List was behind the explosion and hires Global Risk to get rid of the perpetrators.
Black List trying to leave Cebu City after the explosion is stopped by Global Risk, and they engage in a death match.

The tomb of an ancient king was found in the midst of desert.
In the tomb were treasures of both immense archaeological and economic value. The excavation team decides to take the treasures to their home country before the value of the tomb becomes known to the world and gets protected by international laws. The excavation team hires Global Risk asking them to protect the archaeologists and the tomb, without notifying GR of their true intentions.
The country who owns the tomb discovers the fact and requests to show the tomb and the list of items found, but the excavation team declines the request. To stop the treasures from getting transported to a different country, the government hires Black List to investigate the tomb.
May the one who disturb king's sleep be cursed. Will the tomb call for the letters of blood to those who disturbed king's peaceful sleep?

Deadly battles within the wall of the Forbidden Palace, the heart of China.
Sicily, located southwest of Italy, is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. An island where many conquerors' remnants can be found, Sicily is famous as the home of the Mafia, powerful crime lords.
The power of the Mafia has permeated into the international community, and they have begun to secretly sponsor the Black List. In order to amass money for donations, the Mafia starts an illegal arms trade. The Italian government that had looked the other way for the longest time regarding the Mafia tries to crack down on the arms deals, but things get complicated when some politicians who received Mafia contributions oppose the whole ordeal.
Meanwhile, the Italian government receives intelligence that the Black List is headed toward the Mafia fortress located on the outskirts of Sicily to transport a large amount of weapons. Sensing an opportunity to bring the situation under control, the Italian government commissions Global Risk to attack Black List, and the fierce battle between the two groups begins.
Late at night when all the markets have closed down, there was only silence remaining, as if to deny the liveliness of the fish market of the day time.""
In the middle of that silence, there were the BlackList and GlobalRisk mercenaries standing quietly just waiting for an opportunity to jump on one another.
About 4 hours ago, GlobalRisk units stationed around Vietnam acquire information on BlackList's plot to terrorize. The report was a few dozens BlackList mercenaries who are carrying newly developed explosives contained in drums through the city's main waterway. According to it, the explosive is a colourless and odorless liquid which is harmless unless it is dissolved in water, turning into a very poisonous and explosive chemical. It was very clear that it would be dangerous in the hands of terrorists such as BlackList.
After actively tracking down BlackList units, GlobalRisk had finally located them in one of the fish market buildings. On the other hand, the BlackList mercenaries were in the middle of carrying the drums disguised as civilians. The path behind them was blocked by buildings and they had to use the waterway to carry those explosives. And using this information, GlobalRisk seemed to have finally surrounded BlackList.
At that very moment,
BlackList, who noticed the presence of GlobalRisk, started to dissolve the explosives in the city's waterways.
Oops! If a single bullet makes contact with the water an explosion will go off and any civilians around the fish market will be in flames.
Each and every mercenary is a veteran of countless battlefields. However, today, the only weapon allowed for them to use are knives.
After a long long silence, with a command as a signal, their bloody battle has started...!

Not too long ago, technical information ‘LEO Station' which has all forms of ‘network' we currently know was exposed to the powerful elite.
A genius programmer created a virtual world called ‘Low Earth Orbit Station' with all wire and wireless network information passing through the present world and space.
The reason why ‘LEO Station' disappeared without being a trace in the academic world is simple. Connecting to the virtual world requires brainwaves during sleep, but an accident occurred when the unstable state of mind in the virtual world led to a person dying in the real world.
The system can exist in any location in the virtual world ‘LEO Station', but the high security program could be accessed via hacking. The elite had two very opposing views. The conservatives wanted to seal the technology and protect the information while the liberals wanted to control it by hacking the program.
Although the powerful elite had conflicting positions, one thing was certain; they believed ‘LEO Station' was an enormous information control system.
The first information control system that was hacked and caused all this fury was the virtual world ‘LEO Station.' This place which looks like a space station was coveted by the liberals who wanted to extract all the world's information to accumulate a tremendous amount of wealth and power. Therefore, the liberals hire BL Mercenaries to secure ‘LEO Station'.
However, GR Mercenaries were already in position waiting for them there...
The mission to protect the secret missile base in Mexico was successful. However, in the process of regaining the base, a large number of Black List agents already escaped from the missile base. In order to find out who is behind the terrorist activity, Global Risk hurriedly blocks the retreat of Black List, thus starting an intense battle between Black List and Global Risk.
Every Grand Prix season, Monaco is filled with tourists who gather to watch the exciting race. These tourists consist of some of the world's wealthiest. Rumor has it that everyone you pass during the Grand Prix season has at least a million in their pocket.
However, those who stand in the center of the world economy always draw in the rebels against wealth and money. It turns out NCO (New Communism Organization) has decided to exploit the opportunity and conduct an operation. NCO contacts BL to request a mission, and BL decides to take the request for the large money and rewards at stake regardless of the fact that Global Risk is in the area to maintain security. Before the gun ceremony marks the start of the F1 Grand Prix and exciting battle among the racers, Monaco turns into a real live firefight between BL and GR.
After the excavation of an ancient Egyptian King's tomb...
On several occasions, Global Risk and Black List were involved in intense battles at the holy site.
However, a huge scandal made headlines when it was revealed that one of the countries securing mercenary services secretly misappropriated the king's antiquities during the excavation without notifying the country of possession or even Global Risk. Due to this scandal, the archeologists and Global Risk mercenaries that were hired to protect the relics were deeply affected.
While Global Risk Central Headquarters and the UN X-File Bureau were busy blaming each other, Black List seized the opportunity to initiate plans to steal an ancient stone statue made with special materials needed for their Ghost research. From the beginning of this conflict, Black List's goal was to steal the ancient stone statue.
In order to temporarily secure the valuables, a Mosque garden near the excavation site was selected for safekeeping...
As Operation Confiscation was running smoothly for Black List, the security around the antiquities was heightened. At the last stage of Black List's Operation, Global Risk's special unit GRX identified the situation and is moving in to block Black List from taking the statue. GRX wants to protect the statue as well as regain its fallen honor.
'Look alive squad', the merc captain said to his team. 'We've got a job to do.'
The mercenaries had gotten wind of their rival's activity in the area. This was the site of an older power plant that was supplying the surrounding region with power. Both sides knew the other had a vested interest in the region, and neither was willing to give up their turf.
As operations between the two groups occurred around the globe, the tensions in this region flared. Now it would all come to a head, as neither wanted anything to happen to the power plant.
Now, with both sides fielding soldiers in the power plant itself it seemed that conflict would even erupt in this pocket of the world.
'We've got activity,' announced one of the mercenaries from her monitor.
'Lock and load people,' shouted the captain. 'Operation: Pest Containment is officially starting.'
On the map, this island is marked as a deserted island. However, it's a UN-designated prison facility for high profile terrorists.
Recently, the Black List's top dogs demanded a secret hiding place in exchange for their financial support after the global issue of Greece teeters on the brink of bankruptcy. Although national security was on the line, Greece couldn't condone terrorist activities and had to protect its people. In retaliation, Black List causes a large-scale terrorist attack, killing 1,200 people in a Greek festival. A top Black List leader who masterminded the attack was arrested, and he was sent off to this prison island.
Less than a week after he had been taken into custody, Black List selected their best troops to infiltrate the prison island and extract him. However, Global Risk stands guard over the high profile terrorists and would never hand him over without a fight.
On a secret planetary base BL is planning on launching the newest form of RPG attacks. Knowing this GR plans to intercept BL on this planet and obtain this weapon and use it for them seleves. With the strange effect of the gravity the RPG firing speed has been altered , this make both BL and GR question if this new weapon should be tested on this base or take it else where. This causes a battle between factions and the weapon testing begins.......

An abandoned secret base in the mountains. Now Global Risk and Black List have suddenly taken an interest in it and are fighting to regain control.
A hot summer day of 20XX,
Elite agents of both BL and GR had gathered to a soccer Stadium.
They had sharp eyes like they were on a battlefield, and chill tension surrounded the Stadium that would almost purge the heat of summer.
The two old rivalries confronted each other on the half line for a friendly match between GR and BL. The match itself was shocking news, but furthermore, they agreed not to attack each other during the match.
It was utterly nonsense since the rivalries had been fighting in hatred all over the world, but it was possible somehow since they were mercenary corporations, not regular army attached to specific nations. Moreover, no one knew the background of the friendly match; spectators, referees, or even players themselves were not aware of it.
With all those suspicions, the match kicked off with referee’s whistle. It even went normally as the fair play statement.
The normal match lasted only shortly though, until a BL player was fouled and took out his hidden knife at 14 minutes of the first half.
As a result, everybody on both sides took out their knives and had a melee. The match continued afterward was not different from other battlefields. One strange fact was that the ball kept moving around in the bloody battle.
This incident, good topic for the gossips even today, was called ‘the most peaceful 14 minutes world has ever had’.
One month before the carnage in the submarine base of ‘Balaclave’, Black List came up with a plan to destroy Global Risk’s nuclear submarine.
Black List launched an attack against Global Risk and succeeded in debilitating the nuclear submarine but also incurred damage in the process.
So Black List was on high alert after anchoring the damaged submarine in ‘Balaclave’ to get it fixed. Three weeks later, an emergency announcement goes off at the base of ‘Balaclave’.
“Traces of destruction found in some of the pipes. Be on high alert.”
Soon after the emergency announcement was aired on the PA system, shots are fired. And this marks the beginning of Global Risk’s underwater revenge attack.
One chilly afternoon, at the end of winter...
What used to be a crowded market is now a cold and soulless empty lot.
Before it became the main field of activity for an international drug organization, it was at the center for new urban development plans.
Under the order of the authorities, the city marshal, looking to improve his performance, launched an operation against the drug organization, and that’s how the area surrounding the marketplace became a pandemonium.
Troops, merchants, and innocent citizens who were at the wrong place, at the wrong time, were victims of the chaos that ensued.
The one thing they achieved with that operation was the disruption of a large drug distribution. Only that.. the drugs were not collected.
The authorities then sent a request to the GR to investigate the high casualties of the operation.
In order to confront that, the drug organization hired the BL so that they can collect the drugs they hid in a secret place.
One chilly afternoon, at the end of winter...
The empty marketplace is starting to look drearier as it is about to become someone’s grave.
It might look playful, but the games played here are deadly!
Global Risk received intelligence Black List was planning on bombing London Waterloo. In order to stop Black List from performing a terrorist attack and injuring thousands of people, Global Risk decides to infiltrate the train repair shop where Black List was making final decisions and arrangements.

A Festive Team Killing Match!
The final word from global risk has finally arrived to attack black list.
With Bishop’s command, the support unit rushed to the other side of the airplane explosion, built the defense tower and set base camp.
Stressmore, on the other hand, couldn’t wait for head quarter’s reply. The signal has been dropped. This is probably done by global risk. There was only one choice.
Fight against global risk and find their way out.
The Global Risk and Black List’s head on fight, the “OPERATION: WAVE” is about to begin..
All left from the battle of Arctic Base was nothing.
Both GR and BL had put immeasurable amount of supplies and troops to the bitter cold battlefield. BL was barely able to defend the laboratory with pre-constructed defensive facilities in the laboratory and valor of the special soldiers, the result of the research. GR on the other hand, being unable to draw nearby reserve force to the front, pulled away for future plan.
BL seemed to be victorious at this point, but they also suffered high casualties. Besides, all the excellent research samples were put into the battle due to urgent situation and killed, which resulted all those precious researches to several years back.
All the battle had left were just a deep misunderstanding and an old score.
1. Cleaning up the Battlefield
BL Camp in Arctic Base
PFC Holden, a medic and Corporal Howard, a combat soldier, were settling the battlefield with all other troops. Once several days of blizzard had lifted after GR’s retreat, Lieutenant Colonel Strathmore the temporary commander ordered to clear snow and battlefield, as if he’d been waiting for that moment.
“God damn it, I thought I could be free from that shitty patient room once and for all, and now what, the whiter and colder snowfield this time.”
Corporal Howard had left the confined patient room after a long time. He was limping and sweeping with a broom due to the pain still in his thigh. Cold temperature froze his white, big nose in red, and his reddish brown beard was frosted.
PFC Holden responded to his grumbling.
“Well, sir. But it’s true that we’ve got no enough troops because that last battle was furious.”
Normally medics and engineers would take care of the battlefield, but since heavy loss of the troops, even Corporal Howard who was just discharged from the hospital had to be on duty.
His remaining pain should have kept him still in the patient room in normal time. But his early discharge from the hospital due to lack of beds for serious patients like losing their parts of body or their entire body melted from bombing, was the problem.
“I pretended I was okay for no reason and now I got more work to do. Look at this snow. Looks like I will get another disease from removing it.”
To his endless grumbling, PFC Holden only gave him an embarrassing smile and silently swept the snow.
The valley was frequently pierced by cold wind and the snow lay too thick to remember the valley’s actual view. Piles of snow stacked over dead bodies like tombs. Some corpses stretched out their frozen hands out of the piles, as if they were drowned in the water. More likely they were drowned by the cold.
After removing quite a lot of snow, soldiers killed in action started to appear. PFC Holden and Corporal Howard just found the body of Private Sanders as well.
“Terrible. The cold photographed his final moment like a war correspondent.”
Corporal Howard made a comment checking the dog tag from the dead body.
Howard held the corpse’s leg, looked at Holden and pointed the corpse’s head with his chin. Holden nodded as if he understood the gesture and prepared to hold the corpse’s shoulder and lift up.
“One, Two! Threeeee!”
The two tried to lift the body on Howard’s call, but it didn’t move at all. After struggling for a while, Howard soon gave up, flopped down, and wiped the sweat.
“Okay, so he is frozen to his blood then. And the floor is frozen together, too. I guess I need a saw.”
“Sir? Why the saw?”
Asked Holden.
“We got to slice that part stuck to the floor. You know we cannot carry this at once. This much frozen, we only got to divide and carry.”
Holden was astonished by Howard’s word and had such look. As a medic himself, it must be quite shocking to his moral view.
“Don’t just stand there. Find a signalman and report to the superior. Tell them we cannot clean unless it gets warm out here or they give us the saw.”
2. Suspicion
BL commander Strathmore was investigating the crash site of passenger plane, which triggered the battle of Arctic Base.
He had been commanding the troops at his discretion due to dead communication as ever, but in order to cover up the censure for ‘Pyrrhic Victory’ which he would face after being connected to the superior, it was necessary to patch up much as he could, to keep his face. However, cleaning up the battlefield in the severe cold was too harsh and cruel. Corpses were hiding everywhere in snow piles, and the ones found at least were deep-frozen and impossible to carry without slicing them with saws or smashing them with hammers. Moreover there were more injuries occurred during the process.
Even if he was impatient with tight number of troops on cleaning the battlefield, his doubt on the plane had led him to the crash site. Did GR have a good reason to sacrifice the passenger plan for all-out war? If not the provocation from GR, was it necessary for BL’s top-levels to provoke GR at cost of exposing the secret laboratory and drill field? By ignoring him? The de facto commander on field? There were too many oddities. Besides, if not hurrying up, it was feared that either the base would be exposed to an investigator dispatched by the airline, or the crucial black box for investigation would be turned over first.
The passenger plane stuck on top of the ridge and smashed had its wreckages scattered all the way to the bottom. Even in this severe cold snow around the wreckages melted from heat and burning at the explosion. Bigger ones were at least on flat area. It was lucky, to have a good environment to search the black box with ease.
Since even Strathmore himself led and hurried the search, the black box was retrieved safely.
However, there was no single record left in the black box.
Meanwhile, Bishop was very nervous before a meeting with Lieutenant Colonel Kramer. He returned to GR headquarter in his homeland after a very long time, but it was too much to enjoy the mood since he’d come here for a censure.
The battle of Arctic Base was a clear defeat. GR rather suffered high casualties than avenged for an unforgivable terror on the civil airplane committed by BL. Moreover they were unable to attain any information on either the purpose or size of the enemy facility before their very eyes. In other words, they had nothing but the loss.
Many worried about a huge flaw on his once flawless fame, but what he really caught their mind was he fellows only to vanish to his memory.
‘Am I really worth breathing this air for them…?’
“Captain Bishop, Lieutenant Colonel is calling you.”
When he heard the noncom’s call while he was looking out the window, he cleared his disturbed thoughts. He fixed his cap and knocked the office door. Lieutenant Colonel Kramer’s gold name plate on the door shone with vibration from knocking.
“Lieutenant Colonel Kramer, this is Captain Bishop.”
“Come in.”
Once he entered the office, Lieutenant Colonel Kramer’s frowned brows greeted him. He saluted, but Kramer swung roughly his left hand for a reply, keeping his eyes on a report on his desk.
“Straight to business.”
Said Kramer.
“You have lost your trust from the board of chairs. Of course, I know that you have your achievements so far, that you have many field executives’ trust, but the one from the board is above all. The loss at Arctic Base was so enormous. Huge numbers of KIAs, and injured… well, I hate to say it. Thanks to that, we could not even get the request nearby Nepal.”
Even though he would not bother to say out the numbers, Bishop was already aware of them. The brutal images of the battlefield caught his mind again, and he was seized with dizzy feeling. As if he perceived Bishop’s trembling fists, Kramer glanced at his eyes and continued.
“Fortunately, the board postponed any trial or punishment on you. At least we gave BL as much damages as you’ve lost.”
He closed his report, and said finally looking through Bishop’s eyes.
“The board was very furious about this incident. Fury towards you is no match to it at all. Reinforcements are carried out in large scale to most of the battlefront that were on a stalemate with BL due to lack of funds. Even I am surprised, too. They never had decision this emotional before. Well, I think that’s delightful though.”
Bishop seemed quite surprised to Kramer’s word. The ‘stalemate’ he knew was roughly more than dozens. But he said the most! It was nearly a plot for revenge against BL.
“You will be going to Uruzgan, Afghanistan, The most intense deadlocked front. We put thousands and thousands of troops there, but all we get is fax for victims, instead of victory. Looks like BL’s got something hiding there, risking their own lives. Go and take their base, and if you are capable afterwards, figure out what they care all that is. Over.”
“Yes, sir!”
Thinking that he may ‘not be capable’ after securing the base, Bishop saluted to Kramer.
He thought while leaving the office. GR was acting very strangely. They had seen enough of BL’s wickedness, and besides BL there were also numerous ‘enemies’ that inflicted this much damage to GR. Although GR insists on ‘justice’ in the war, it was a mercenary corporate. It was hard to believe retaliating war regardless the profit as the board’s decision. And what about BL who shot down the plane right next our secret base? Too many doubts floated around.
But Bishop already knew, that such worry was a luxury to him. He regarded all those doubts obtruding his mind as distraction, and hurried his way out.
A report from investigator arrived in the late afternoon, after he was finally connected to BL top-levels and had a report combined with censure. Strathmore received the report in highly sensitive status.
“Didn’t you say the black box was empty?”
Since he had just reported the superior that the crash site investigation was in vain, he responded even more sensitively.
“I did, since the loss of the information seemed to be artificial...so I tried restoring, but couldn’t restore any possible navigation data or recording.”
He opened a page from his folder he was holding, handed to Strathmore and continued.
“If you look at here, I could barely restore the log right before formatting. It is a complex command, but simply it is an automatic format command.”
“Simple it is, but I still don’t get it.”
As Strathmore’s eyebrows wiggled unpleasantly, the investigator was quite intimidated and continued.
“Um, well, so to speak, the reason it was empty was not from the external shock, but from the automatic command specially input by the manufacturer.”
“What the hell are you saying? Are you telling me that the black box maker was responsible for plane explosion?”
To his question the investigator took back the report as if he was snatching it and returned it to him with another page.
“Yes, I had that question too and traced the maker in the log. It was called ZTI, an air logistics corporate. If you take a look at here, the explosive that blew up the plane was one of the products from ZTI. It’s true that ZTI explosive is commonplace in the world, they have no intersection with BL to be suspicious, but I think it is possible, not to be handled so easily.”
ZTI…Strathmore was thinking for a while. Then he noticed the investigator being impatient, and let him go.
In fact he knew ZTI already. ‘Zeus Tech & Industry’. It was the munitions corporate closely related with BL. It was not the wrong idea that ZTI took charge of more than half the munitions including weapons and explosives in BL’s war. Also, various BL researches were supported by ZTI researchers. ZTI was closely connected to numerous secrets as well. That means, since they could have known the existence of Arctic Base research facility as well, they could commit a terror to expose it if they were willing to.
But for what reason? ZTI’s purpose was still unclear.
There was one man to solve this question among his connections.
Colonel Watters.
Leading the battlefield in Uruzgan, it was him who instructed Strathmore before joining BL, who drew him to BL after a dishonorable discharge, and who ceaselessly watched for him to serve well in BL, like a father. Watters was very trustworthy in treacherous and backstabbing BL. Among field-type executives he was the closest one related to top-levels, so he must have a solution.
Strathmore headed to Uruzgan, ignoring the order to stand by at Arctic Base from top-levels.
3. Uruzgan
Uruzgan Province, located in the midst of barren desert of Afghanistan. It had a history of terror and regional warfare between the U.S and rebel forces even after the Iraqi war, which then bequeathed its role to BL and GR for limitless engagement. Within few days, the battlefield was turning to very fierce one ever before, by GR’s unbelievable massive offensive.
It was Captain Costa -who was an aide to Colonel Watters- that greeted Strathmore arriving on BL camp helipad. He had a mixed expression of both gladness and puzzledness.
“Hello, Lieutenant Colonel Strathmore. What’s the occasion here without any contact?”
“An urgent matter with Colonel Watters. Is he available?”
Costa looked around and answered quietly.
“I’ll tell you inside, it’s difficult here.”
Captain Costa led him to command tent. The seat inside the tent Colonel Watters should be was empty.
“Lieutenant Colonel Strathmore. To be straightforward, Colonel is currently cut off inside the GR front.”
“What?”
Strathmore shouted in surprise. He’d come here for an information even violating the order, but the key person is actually in danger.
“Ever since he was out to northern supply base, all of a sudden, Chora valley turned into the major front… He is not found out by GR according to satellite photos, but things are not very optimistic. Unless we overturn battle situation, we cannot reach him for rescue or contact.”
“What’s the situation now?”
“Currently, we are on a close battle for a strongpoint between the valley. But right before you’ve come here we lost it, and we are bracing up here in the northern base. Our loss, compared to Arctic Base…”
He tried to make a comparison of the loss with that of Arctic Base, but since the person concerned was right in front of him, he blurred what he was going to say and instead changed the topic.
“…We had a huge loss, but because the strongpoint is the only ground route to northern supply base, if we don’t secure, we will have a problem in future night operations and supply transportation. GR’s compact air defense network makes air transportation nearly impossible, and either the ground transportation away from the air defense network or an operation to get rid of it is also impossible without the route. So if they take it, we lose.”
“Cannot escape then.”
Even Strathmore himself who’d gone through numerous situations were experiencing this sort of unusual situation for the first time. Besides GR was over-pressing BL more than they needed, unlike what they were used to be.
“Yes, but Lieutenant Colonel Strathmore?”
Captain Costa woke Strathmore’s mind up, who was out of his awareness at the moment coming up with a strategy to overcome the situation.
“Currently commander is missing in this unit. I’ve been in charge at the moment, but would you mind taking over?”
Strathmore finally understood why Costa had that glad expression. Captain as he was yet, the situation might be difficult to handle.
There was no alternative for Strathmore. He had to rescue Watters, and have a chance to rinse off his dishonor tainted from the battle of Arctic Base. He accepted Costa’s suggestion and began to brace up for the upcoming fierce battle.
Meanwhile, Bishop was also surprised by the abnormal situation upon arrival to Uruzgan. Of course GR had lost tremendous amount of troops as well, but they had no signs of moving the front set on Chora valley. Even with his precise strategies and equal experience as well, he was unable to think of any proper strategy. Besides, he had no idea of why they defended Chora valley fiercely, or why they would advance to Uruzgan.
While pondering the proper plan to overcome the situation, he started to look for battle journals up until now. Then he realized that he did not carefully search the battlefield he passed by due to single-minded charge tactic. He thought maybe BL was desperately looking for what they’d left in the battlefield.
But he could only put aside his chance to prove it for a moment because of the sandstorm that just blew in.
4. Final Battle
A siren roared throughout GR camp that was sparing its power from long-lasting sandstorm. BL had launched attack through the totally sight-blocking storm.
Exhausted GR mercenaries from long-lasting battle were resting in comfort, since they believed that the sandstorm would keep them from the battle. But beyond their expectations BL was raiding upon them in advantage of this nasty weather. Bishop and GR mercenaries shuddered at BL’s such wickedness, and hustled their stiffened body from half-resting.
Even before GR readied the battle line, BL force had stormed into Chora valley.
The battle of wiping sand with blood, blood with sand was about to begin.
