The company of rangers had moved in the darkness through light brush, the nature that existed close to Lake Chad. Decades ago Boko Haram had hidden here and been difficult to detect, but the desert was spreading and the world was warming up. The men had brought most MK-17A2 SCARs configured for 5.56x45mm M855A1, as they wanted to carry a lot of ammo and have SOCOM barrels that wouldn't heat up as much, but also would be short enough for suppressors. Each of these men had over a million dollars in training, and they were carrying Enhanced Night Vision Goggles & Scopes. While most of the world was stuck with rattley Kalashnikovs and soft body armor, these men walked the world like it was a video game. Their guns seemed to project lasers only they could see, and their Googles not only could see in infra-red or light amplification, but they had advanced identification technology that highlighted friendlies, hostiles, and neutrals. There was a circle in their vision with a dot inside, that indicated where their weapon was pointed. They had headsets that made gunfire quiet, and food-steps, whispers loud.
When told these forces were likely hostile, the button was pressed and the C4 system converted all these neutral readings to hostile. The order was to engage at 350 meters, which was easy as all their scopes had rangefinders.
The bullets cracked through the air, but there was no muzzle-flashes. About 70 bodies dropped and the remainder tried to run away, or fire back. They were slaughtered without any idea who was shooting them. They were able to move in and inspect the bodies, but none of them had any training in this sort of thing. Mason didn't have the training, but he was extremely educated and might figure things out.
