I Can Claim Daily Rewards-Chapter 136 Killing The Pirates
The enemy ship drew closer and the pirates began to fire wildly at them. Arlan could hear the bullets whistling past him as he hid behind the gunwale of the ship.
Ratatata!
Ratatata!
"Destroy them!" The captain commanded his subordinates to fire back at the pirates.
The crew members looked incredibly serious as the gunfight continued. They never thought that the Syrian pirates would actually put up a fierce struggle against them.
"Dammit! What's going on with these guys?!" The captain gritted his teeth as he reloaded his weapon.
"Incoming RPG!" Khalon shouted as he jumped towards another location. Using his powerful vision, he noticed a pirate holding a rocket-propelled grenade over his shoulder.
Everyone was alerted when they heard his words and they quickly dove to the ground.
A bright light hurtled towards the ship and hit the place where Khalon was standing earlier.
Bang!
"Khalon kill the person holding the RPG!" Arlan shouted desperately. It would be dangerous if they allowed more RPGs to hit the ship. They might sink into the ocean!
Khalon nodded his head. He lifted his head and aimed his rifle towards the enemy ship, searching for the pirate who fired the RPG. "There you are!" He pulled the trigger as soon as he the guy.
Ratatatata!
"RPG down!" Khalon shouted after taking out the man.
The captain was impressed by his marksmanship. He actually managed to find a specific target with such poor visibility. After all, it was already nighttime.
"Take out our RPGs! I want you guys to destroy that ship!" The captain angrily shouted. He was boasting earlier that the pirates wouldn't dare attack them if their flag was raised. It was like a slap to his face so he felt like killing all those pirates to appease his rage.
The crew members took out their RPGs and fired them.
Boom! Bang!
Boom! Bang!
The fearsome counterattack caused the enemy ship to be covered in flames. Some pirates jumped into the sea to save themselves, while the others fled using an emergency boat.
Arlan shot the fleeing pirates with a cold expression on his face. These guys took the initiative to attack them so he didn't feel remorseful in killing them. He felt calm even after killing more than five enemies. He didn't know if it was because of the super soldier experience he claimed back then or if this was his true personality.
When he ran out of bullets, he stared at Krizia and noticed that she was also shooting at the pirates. Her face was filled with fright, but also a hint of determination. The guard who was responsible for her safety was standing in front of her as he warily observed the enemies.
Not long later, they finally eliminated the pirates.
Krizia slumped into the floor as she leaned on the gunwale of the ship while holding her rifle tightly.
"Are you alright?" Arlan came running towards her and check if she had any injuries.
Krizia shook her head as she replied in a trembling voice. "I-I killed someone..."
Arlan patted her shoulder. "Krizia... you have no choice but to fight back. If we didn't kill them, we would be dead by now..."
Krizia hugged her legs as she quietly sobbed.
Arlan sighed upon seeing this. She was supposed to live a successful life in the city as the General Manager of a famous hotel. Their recent experiences might have been a huge shock to her.
Arlan didn't know how to console someone so he just stroked her back as he sat beside her.

The next day, Arlan woke up with a huge headache. He wasn't able to sleep well last night so he took the initiative to stand guard. He only had a little more than 2 hours of sleep.
It was already 6 a.m. when he woke up.
Arlan stood up and stared at Krizia who was sleeping at the bed above him. It was a good thing that she managed to sleep despite the frightening encounter with the pirates.
Arlan grabbed his phone and claimed his daily reward.
[Congratulations! You claimed 100 million USD!]
Including the money he claimed yesterday, Arlan claimed a total of 150 million USD. This would cancel out the money they had to pay to the military company and he would have an extra 50 million USD.
Arlan greeted the captain and asked him if there was any damage to the ship.
"It's just minor damage. We just have to repair it for a week and it will be as good as new." The captain replied with a beaming smile.
"That's good to hear." Arlan retracted his gaze from him. "Excuse me." He left after saying those words.

Three days later, they arrived in Turkey.
Another team escorted them to Istanbul where they created fake IDs and passports. This was necessary since they had to hide their identities. Winter told them that the Cassano Family had a branch in Istanbul so they had to be careful.
In the last three days, Arlan's phone almost ran out of battery. Luckily, it managed to survive until they reached Istanbul. He claimed another blueprint from the daily rewards and also a large amount of cash. He took a picture of the blueprint and sent it to Winter and told her to let the arms corporation study it.
At this moment, the group was heading towards the airport in Istanbul together with the mercenaries from the Legion Military Company.
"How are you?" Arlan stared at Krizia.
Krizia smiled at him as she replied. "I'm fine now, Mr. Roa. You don't have to worry about me. I'm not as weak as you think..." She chuckled.
Arlan didn't say anything when he heard her words. He could still see the anxiety in her gaze.
Soon, the group arrived at the airport.
"Tell your boss, that I will contact him soon." Arlan said to the new escort team.
"I will relay your words to him."
Arlan sent them the remaining half of the payment before he led the group inside the airport.
