Chapter 1301 - 1306: Suitable Candidate
The attack was undeniably fierce, and the casualty rate was terrifyingly high. But what was most surprising was that the ISIS soldiers were indeed unafraid of death.
They truly were unafraid, whether or not they realized that they were just cannon fodder, whose role was merely to deplete some of the enemy’s ammunition, and perhaps cause some damage to the enemy along the way.
Anton felt like he had already seen through the Viper’s intentions.
With casualty rates exceeding thirty percent, finally, those fearless soldiers who threw grenades at the great mosque slowed down. The pace of their attack decreased, and soon it completely stopped. By then, the bodies had already piled up in all the areas covered by the firepower inside the main hall.

If this intensity of attacks is maintained, Satan can hold out for a long time, because they won’t have ammunition shortages. There were too many bodies outside, and each one had guns and bullets; as long as Satan took some risks and found ways, they could always replenish their ammo.
