The need to be aggressive was expected given the duration of this trial but right now, Kurt and Lark need to cross the hurdle of approaching the house.

"You do not think that we can return to that cabinet and get some ballistic shield for cover, right?" Kurt jested as the both of them looked back together to see the cabinet had already \'returned\' to the ground.

At that point, Lark had already used the turning of his body to check on the cabinet as a cover from the sniper to pick up his smoke grenade that was attached to his vest. After which, he shook his head slowly but they had already secretly communicated through an encrypted short range system what to do.

"Then I guessed we have to …split our ways!" Lark shouted the last three words as a signal to move as he threw the smoke grenade right at the front and Kurt fired towards the house as a distraction. This enabled them to jump into the tall grass area, causing the sniper to hesitate in her shot.

"However, the time they bought was short because they knew that they were only prepared for a breaching assault and had no camouflage with them at all. None of them expected sniper fire from the house and they knew that the smoke grenade was merely a distraction. If the sniper switched to thermal, she might be able to find them within the tall grass.

"No wonder the weather is cooling! It\'s deliberate!" Lark thought to himself as the thermal scans would no doubt be able to catch bogeys with high temperatures. Being too focused on the objective with a short time frame to prepare as well as not being in their element for some time caused them to make such mistakes.

"Kurt… Lark… Do not disappoint me." Dyke shouted loudly from afar as he had decided to bet on them by providing an assistance package. It was also because Jin was on the sidelines introducing the \'betting\' system.

Spectators can help or derail the participants by putting in care packages or raising new obstacles. The money they placed in favour of the participants would be added to a progress bar working towards the goal of giving them a care package. Right now since there were only two spectators, the price of giving them such assistance was two gold bars or an equivalent of two hundred points.

Dyke immediately put in his points as if it was nothing of significance and this enabled a drone carrying a box to emerge from where the cabinets had descended. "To Kurt or Lark?" Jin asked and Dyke pointed at Lark who was the senior between the two bodyguards.

Just as the drone flies towards Lark, the sniper had decided to have her aim towards it as she knew that it would be detrimental for her. This however also gave Kurt the time to speed towards the house and Jin understood that Dyke had given the bodyguards a helping hand not from the care package but as a distraction.

Archduke Dyke was also satisfied that his move had been given the needed distraction for the speedier Kurt to move towards the house. And even as the drone had been shot down, the care package was not affected by it as the container that housed the mysterious care pack contents was sturdy from the drop.

"Heh. I guess this is better than nothing." Lark said as he brought the container upwards as a shield against the sniper attack before opening the box.

"Not bad." Raymond thought that Lark was doing remarkably fine to use the container as a cover. It was then Lark found that his Archduke had bought him a grenade launcher with two shots in it. "This is really better than nothing!" Lark said as he knew the direction where the sniper was coming from and all he needed was one shot towards the house.

The moment the sniper had fired her attack, Lark quickly counter by shooting the launcher towards the window where she was sniping from. He did not expect much but the explosion would definitely deter the sniper from shooting, allowing him to move forward.

And just as Lark thought that he would be safe, several shots came from the reinforced windows from the first storey. When Archduke Dyke zoomed in, there was just a small enough hole that allowed a barrel to pass through the reinforced closed windows and shoot from it, hitting Lark on his chest.

"Fuck!" Lark said as he knew that he just needed to move sideways away from the range of the barrel.

"Quick come here!" Kurt signalled to his colleague as he knew that the door he wished to breach was clear. Lark did not think much and moved towards his fellow bodyguard based on his instincts.

Little did he notice that there was actually a claymore mine that was partially hidden with the trash that was left near the door.

"Boom!"

Lark\'s body literally exploded right in front of Kurt who was waiting for his arrival so they could breach the door together but their hasty actions. Kurt saw his close friend broken into multiple fragments and regretted that he took this demonstration as seriously as he should have.

Obviously, this incident caused Dyke and Raymond to stand up from their seats and stare at Jin who was not worried a single bit at all, knowing that this was their first time seeing how a dungeon instance works.
