Chapter 126: I'm Well Prepared
"Aha!" RPK16 waved her arms excitedly after seeing the message on her phone.
Although she didn't know why Renault agreed so readily, at least he agreed, didn't he?
"Is Renault coming to pick us up?" AK12 felt relieved when she heard that. As long as Renault came to pick them up, they would definitely not be chased and beaten by the Sangvis like last time.
"He agreed, but the spaceship won't come down. The gunship will," RPK16 clarified. Although the gunship doesn't give people a stronger sense of security than the spaceship, at least the gunship's protection capability is far superior to Griffin's transport plane.
AK12 nodded. The gunship is okay. They have been on the gunship before. The armor plating on the fuselage is still very strong. "In that case, we can be assured about the evacuation. Now it depends on whether AR team can succeed."
Of course, the time must be observed. Twenty minutes is twenty minutes.
Well, there are still fifteen minutes left. AR team should be transmitting data now, right?
There is no sound of fighting from inside the Sangvis Ferri Factory. The AR team is probably not exposed yet. There is no precedent for the weapons in the hands of the Sangvis Ferri dolls to be equipped with silencers. The only special operations elite doll, Alchemist, has been abducted by Renault, so no sound means safety.
This is indeed the case.
After passing a group of idle Dinergates, the three members of the AR team directly entered the maintenance channel of the factory. It can be said that there was almost no obstruction along the way, and the data copying of the target document is also nearing the end.
"It will be ready soon," M4 said, looking at the progress bar with only a little bit left. She was happy; he thought this mission was a life-or-death struggle, but she didn't expect the mission target to be so easy to obtain.
"Pascal has sent new information. When we evacuate, we'll take Boss Renault's gunship. We'll go to the spaceship first and then get sent back on the way."
"Oh? Is that so? Then there is nothing to worry about. Can we notify Commander Gentiane that they can retreat?" RO635 looked at the door of the engine room. There was still no movement. The Sangvis Ferri dolls guarding the door did not notice that someone had entered the engine room.
"Well, I will send a message now." M16 nodded. Since the items they were looking for were already in hand, there was no need for Gentiane to continue the operation. Retreating early could also avoid damage to the tactical doll troops.
...
"Hiss!" Gentiane pushed away the table that was pressing on her and took a breath of cold air while covering her head. The combat command room on the front line had completely turned into a ruin, and all the command equipment had been scrapped.
"Commander!? Are you okay?" G36, Gentiane's adjutant, shouted while trying to lift the concrete slab pressing on her body.
"I should be the one asking you this! Hey!" Gentiane looked back at G36's condition, shook her still-dizzy head, walked forward, and pushed the slab away with G36.
"I'm fine, just some minor injuries. It won't affect my movements." Unlike Gentiane, G36 was not wearing any protective suit. She was still wearing the maid outfit she usually wore in the base. But at this time, G36's legs looked a bit bloody, and a large amount of bionic fluid had directly dyed her skirt crimson.
"Don't force it. The armored troops of the Sangvis Ferri has arrived; we should retreat!" Gentiane helped G36 rush out of the ruins and at the same time asked G36 to notify all dolls to retreat through Griffin's communication protocol.
It was only when Gentiane walked out of the combat command room, which was only a wall left, that she found that the vehicles that were originally parked next to the command room had completely turned into pieces of scrap metal.
"Commander, put me down first..."
"Stop talking. Otherwise I can't lift a doll like you!" Gentiane gritted her teeth and shouted angrily.
Of course, she gritted her teeth not because of G36's weight, but because the pain in her head did not ease, and there was even blood sliding down her forehead and falling into her eyes, which stung her.
To be honest, Gentiane really didn't feel how heavy the G36 was at this time. It was roughly estimated that it was only about 70 or 80 kilograms, very light. Compared with a normal girl, it was definitely too light. And her physical fitness had amazingly improved a lot recently, and this weight was not enough to be considered a burden for her.
"Are the other dolls retreating now?" Gentiane asked, looking back with some worry. The armored units of Sangvis Ferri are constantly attacking Griffin's positions, and the attacks of Jupiter cannons fall on the positions from time to time. This appeared like they are about to be defeated.
However, Gentiane was prepared for this. When digging fortifications, she had told the dolls to reserve a retreat channel for them in advance. The only ones left in the trenches now should be the dummy dolls.
The jammer of Sangvis Ferri has been neutralized by Pascal's anti-interference device, and the communication between Griffin dolls has not been affected. Therefore, it is okay to leave the dummy dolls in place. Anyway, these dummies will all be considered normal mission losses in the end, and the boss will reimburse them.
Besides, this mission was issued by Griffin HQ. If the headquarters does not reimburse it, why should she work? Just quit and work to pay off the debt!
"The retreat of the dolls is very smooth. Except for you, Commander, most of the dolls have evacuated to a safe area." G36 said this, but there was some anxiety in her eyes.
They had never expected that the Sangvis Ferris would suddenly bombard the command post. After all, the anti-jammer device was set up next to the command post, and the location of the command center had always been well hidden.
Now most of the dolls have retreated in an orderly manner according to the order given by Gentiane in advance. The one who fell behind is now Gentiane herself.
If this continues...
"Don't think about doing anything stupid. Those Sangvis Ferris don't have time to deal with us now. They have other things to do." Feeling G36's somewhat sluggish movements, Gentiane grabbed G36's hand tightly and signaled her not to move.
"But the Sangvis Ferri will catch up soon..."
"They will catch up, yes, but they are not chasing us. They are after the AR team's puppets. The Sangvis Ferri Mastermind's target has always been the AR team, or the M4 in the AR team. She doesn't care about anything else."
She is not stupid. The Sangvis Ferri team has been chasing the AR team back and forth, and the military has tried to capture the AR team many times.
How could she not know the Sangvis Ferri Mastermind's purpose after so many times?
Fortunately, she was prepared.
Chapter 127: None of them were encountered
"Master, Griffin has retreated," Agent frowned unwillingly at the image seen by the Scout in the sky.
"Don't worry, I only need M4."
"Understood." Agent bowed her head and responded while commanding the armored units to surround the location of the AR team's signal.
With the armored units in front, the dummy dolls left by Griffin could not stop Sangvis Ferri's footsteps at all, and were either ignored or directly destroyed.
Sangvis Ferri Mastermind Eliza, who only had M4 in her head at this time, did not take those dummy dolls seriously at all.
Standing on the top of a Manticore, she moved towards the location of the AR team.
As she got closer to the location of the AR team, Eliza's originally calm expression became more and more distorted.
When she saw the figures who were deeply surrounded, the expression on Eliza's face finally couldn't hold anymore.
"This is not M4 at all!"
...
Sangvis Ferri General Factory, Command Center.
Destroyer was wearing headphones and lying there with her eyes closed, as if she was not worried at all that someone would invade the factory at this time.
In fact, she was not worried at all. There was still a steady stream of Sangvis Ferri Dolls being produced in the entire factory.
She had already blocked the passages in the factory with various Sangvis Ferri Dolls and combat units!
Those invaders couldn't get in at all!
To be honest, Destroyer's plan was not that bad. After all, no one could have imagined that the main factory, which looked like there were only more than 2,000 Sangvis Ferri Dolls from the outside, would have at least 5,000 Sangvis Ferri combat units hidden inside the factory.
If you really encountered a careless tactical doll, you might really be beaten up by this arrangement.
It's a pity that the one who entered the factory was not someone else, but M16, who knew the internal situation of the factory almost perfectly.
After passing through the first group of Dinergates, the AR Team kept walking in the maintenance channel, without even alerting any Sangvis Ferri dolls that could sound the alarm.
"Destroyer, Destroyer!? What are you doing!?"
Agent, who was tricked by Gentiane, was furious, especially after seeing that Destroyer was slacking off during work hours!
"Eh!? Agent! Agent!"
Agent's roar frightened Destroyer so much that she jumped up from her seat and looked at Agent on the screen in panic, not understanding why this guy suddenly got so angry.
Next to Agent's screen, the image of the Dreamer also appeared in a corner of the screen. Dreamer pulled up the corner of her mouth and shrugged helplessly at Destroyer, as if to say that she was powerless.
"What's the situation at the main factory now?" Agent asked angrily, ignoring the panic on Destroyer's face.
After seeing the leisurely look of Destroyer, Agent always felt uneasy. It didn't seem to be a good idea to leave all the guarding work of the main factory to Destroyer alone...
"Uh, nothing happened, but someone attacked the patrol team outside before, and they have been driven away now." Destroyer scratched her head, not thinking that there was anything wrong with what she said.
But Agent didn't think so. The location of the Sangvis Ferri main factory was seriously contaminated by collapse particle. Under normal circumstances, no one would come here.
The sudden attack on the main factory before was obviously not a coincidence!
Those infected people would not run to the main factory in an organized manner just to attack some ordinary Sangvis Ferri dolls patrolling outside the factory.
There are only two possibilities for this abnormal situation. One is that those guys are planning how to invade the main factory, and the other is naturally that those guys are covering for someone...
"Don't be silly! How could they be driven away! Hurry up and check the internal situation of the factory! The enemy may have entered the factory!" Looking at the silly look of Destroyer, Agent felt very angry.
After Destroyer was taken away by Renault, she shouldn't have recreated Destroyer!
With those resources, wouldn't it be better for her to use Destroyer's body as a template to create a brand new doll?
"Huh? How is it possible? I have already laid a net in the factory! There is absolutely no way an intruder can sneak in without alerting me!" Destroyer was very satisfied with her arrangement.
After all, she usually doesn't use her brain much. This time, she thought about it for a long time before coming up with this method.
Ignoring Destroyer's declaration, Agent directly took over the monitoring equipment of the main factory remotely, intending to see with her own eyes if there was anything wrong with the factory.
It would have been better if she hadn't seen it. It was really shocking when she saw it!
Indeed, what Destroyer said was right. She did set up a net in the whole factory, but those were either Dinergates or SF Rippers. One by one, except for the Dinergates who had the ability to move freely, the SF dolls inside the factory stood in place like sculptures, and even blocked the paths of the patrol teams and working dolls that were already inside the factory.
"Destroyer! What are you doing!? What's going on with those dolls and Dinergates! What orders did you give them!?"
"Uh, just stay where you are...?" Destroyer said uncertainly.
Agent rolled her eyes at Destroyer, and then quickly switched the screen of the monitoring system to check all the key parts of the factory. When she saw the engine room, a place that needed special attention, she found some inconspicuous footprints on the floor inside the engine room...
No Sangvis Ferri Dolls usually go into the engine room. The only ones who have entered are the Dolls who regularly go in to maintain the equipment and do cleaning work. It is impossible for them to leave footprints on the floor...
In other words...
"Someone has invaded the factory! Find them all!"
...
While Agent was roaring angrily, UMP45, who had taken on the task of picking up people, also came to the gunship in the hangar with UMP40.
This thing has not been driven for a while, and the top of the cabin has more or less fallen into dust.
But after opening the hatch of the gunship, UMP45 found a Doll that should not be here.
"WA2000? Why are you sitting in the cockpit of a gunship? What's going on?"
"Huh? No, nothing, I just came to see how to use these driving equipment, but I can't find the instruction manual..." WA2000, whose face was still a little pale, looked at UMP45 a little embarrassedly.
Chapter 128 What bad intentions could UMP45 have?
"Instruction manual? It must have been stuffed into some gap by Simonov or SPAS-12." UMP45 got into the cockpit, opened the seat cover bought by Simonov, and looked around, trying to find the instruction manual that never existed.
But she soon remembered that the instruction manual did not seem to exist at all. The driving system of this gunship was modified by Renault from the helicopter's driving system. The original helicopter instruction manual was not applicable to this gunship at all.
In the beginning, Simonov was still groping while driving. It was obviously unrealistic to learn to drive this gunship by reading the instruction manual.
"Well, it seems that I can't find it, but I just happened to be going to pick someone up. Do you want to come with me? It's just right to sit in the co-pilot seat and learn." UMP45 said this to WA2000, while raising her hand and patting the co-pilot seat.
WA2000 asked hesitantly, "Uh? Is that okay? Should I go back and get my weapons first..."
Although UMP45 and UMP40 didn't have much equipment, they at least brought their own imprint weapons. HK416 was even more exaggerated. She looked fully armed, as if she was going to fight a small-scale war.
She herself had nothing but an unopened chocolate bar and her mobile phone in her pocket. Her imprint weapons were still in her dormitory.
"Hey, no, no, we are just picking someone up. We'll be back in ten minutes. Come sit here." UMP45 waved her hand and said, and while she was talking, HK416 had already closed the hatch of the gunship.
"Where's G11? Why didn't she come with us?"
Seeing WA2000 sitting in the co-pilot seat, UMP40 sat down in the gunner's seat and buckled herself up.
"That guy is obsessed with the Goliath robot now. They were having a great time when I went to find her." HK416 shrugged.
She originally wanted to bring G11 with her, but since that guy was having a great time with SOP2 and the others, HK416 did not force G11 to come out.
"G11? Robot? I was going to ask her to help me with the use of the training device..."
After hearing the conversation between the two, WA2000 finally understood. No wonder she didn't see G11 in the training room.
"When you come back later, go to the warehouse on the second floor to find her. The warehouse there is quite busy. You can find her when you go there. Now you should fasten your seat belt quickly, otherwise you might get bumped." HK416 pointed to the seat belt next to WA2000.
"Oh, oh!"
While speaking, UMP45 had already started the gunship's engine, and a not-so-loud noise was heard, and the hangar door in front of the gunship slowly opened.
"Hold on tight! We're leaving!"
Bang bang bang!
Just as UMP45 was about to take off, the gunship's hatch was suddenly knocked on, and at the same time, Maria's somewhat anxious shout was heard.
"Wait! Wait for me! I'm going with you!"
Huh?
HK416 frowned, but still unbuckled her seat belt and stood up, opening the gunship's hatch.
As soon as the hatch opened, Maria rushed in, "Huh! Fortunately, I made it! Renault is really, he didn't tell me about going back to Factory 0, and I almost missed it!"
Looking at Maria carrying a small backpack on her back, looking like she was going out for an outing, HK416 frowned subconsciously.
"Maria, we are going to pick someone up, not to play."
"I know, don't worry! I won't delay your business, I'm just going back to get some items!"
As soon as Maria said this, WA2000 also realized it. If it weren't for this, she would have forgotten the fact that Maria was also an Sangvis Ferri doll...
After all, the clothes Maria usually wears don't have any Sangvis flavor at all, and her name is not as recognizable as other Sangvis Ferri dolls. It's normal to forget, right?
"Get something?" Seeing Maria skillfully buckling her seat belt, HK416 was also a little curious. What else can be taken from this Sangvis Ferri factory?
"Yes, I suddenly remembered a few days ago that I still have a few CDs that Scarecrow gave me in my residence over there. I didn't need to take them, but I can't remember what the tracks are on them. I just took this opportunity to go back and get them."
Listening to Maria's words, WA2000's eyes twitched.
Sure enough, for Commander Renault, a place like the Sangvis Ferri's General Factory is no different from his own home. Looking at the calmness of Maria and HK416, if Griffin had the strength of Renault, Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing would have been captured along with all its members long ago, right?
"Oh, that's okay." HK416 nodded and didn't care.
It's just taking things. As long as Maria points out the location, Maria will jump down when the gunship arrives, and then they will go to pick up people first, and then come back to pick Maria up. It won't take long.
Of course, if Maria can remember where her things are...
As for Maria's safety? Of course, there is no need to worry. She is a complete Sangvis Ferri individual, and her command authority is also a high-level command authority. Unless the Mastermind is here in person, which Sangvis Ferri doll dares to point a gun at Maria?
If it's Agent, its possible, but does she dare? What the mastermind dares not do, can she do it? Anyway, UMP40 doesn't believe it.
"Oh!"
The sudden feeling of weightlessness made Maria let out a light cry, and the action of opening her small backpack in her hand also stopped.
HK416 and others have long been accustomed to this. UMP45's driving method is not as conventional as SPAS-12, nor as stable as Simonov.
Compared to the two pilots who have been trained in the training device for a long time, UMP45's driving method can only be described as... um, wild...?
Just like now, UMP45 directly controls the gunship to make a dive in the sky. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
WA2000's ear-piercing scream suddenly sounded, and after the gripper used to stabilize the co-pilot seat was pulled down by WA2000, tears in her eyes had already flowed out, and her hands were directly buckled into the seat.
"UMP45!" UMP40 shouted at UMP45 unhappily, this guy! It's obvious that she did it on purpose!
Of course, UMP40 was most angry about the gripper that was pulled off and the seat that had been scratched by WA2000.
Repairs also cost money! But fortunately, the co-pilot's seat was just removed from the helicopter. If it was replaced with the main pilot's seat, Simonov would probably come to their door.
"Hehe! I know, I know, but WA2000, are you afraid of heights? You can't be a pilot if you are so afraid."
Looking at WA2000 with tears beside her, UMP45 pulled up the corner of her mouth and said with a sly smile.
Chapter 129: Do your best
"Hey, Dreamer! Don't just stand there! Come over and help find it!" After Agent's communication was cut off, Destroyer immediately shouted to Dreamer.
How could this guy just sit in her control room and watch her getting humiliated for fun at this time!
"Tsk tsk, although I want to help you, at this time, 'I' am with the mainframe. What if I suddenly show up to help you search for those invaders?" Dreamer spread her hands, looking helpless.
When the Mainframe and others took the transport plane to the front line, the dummy of Dreamer was the name of her main body.
If she jumps out to help Destroyer search now, what else would it be if not exposing herself here?
"Ah! Now is not the time to talk about this, right!?"
"Hey, if I were you, I would not stand there like now, but go out to command those droids to start searching. Otherwise, if those invaders really escape this time, I don't know whether you will be dismantled by then."
Although Agent saw someone invade the machine room in the factory, the previous alarm had been a full twenty minutes since now, and those invaders might have almost escaped from the factory.
"Ah! Damn it!" Grabbing her weapon from the corner of the wall, Destroyer rushed out of the command room in a hurry.
Then she bumped into the Guard standing in front of the door, or more precisely, the shield held in the Guard's hand.
"Ouch!?"
...
"Be careful! Don't go out!" When seeing those Sangvis' Ferri dolls suddenly move, M16 quickly grabbed RO635, who was walking in front.
Although the maintenance passage is secret, it is not a one-way road to the machine room, and you have to go out of the maintenance passage several times in the middle.
Before, those Sangvis' Ferri dolls stood there like idiots, and it was very convenient to avoid those guys' sight.
But now it's no longer possible. These Sangvis' Ferri dolls who are moving must have received the order to search for outsiders.
By then, even if the Sangvis' Ferri signal camouflage on them has not yet failed, I'm afraid that those Sangvis' Ferri dolls will rush over and capture them mercilessly after seeing them.
"But... didn't Persica just say that the people who came to pick us up are almost here? If we don't go out, what if we miss it..."
"How can we miss it? You have to think about it. In a place like this, who else can take us out intact?"
M4 scratched his head, his eyes lit up, "Is it Commander Renault?"
"Ah, yes, it must be Renault's side, otherwise who else could it be? Even the military may not dare to send people here to pick us up." M16 shrugged her shoulders.
When they came in before, there were about 2,000 Sangvis droids outside the main factory. They thought that Sangvis had transferred most of the Dolls away. However, after walking around the factory along the maintenance passage, the three of them gave up the idea.
The densely packed Sangvis droids and combat units in the corridor were so frightening. It was roughly estimated that there were at least thousands of Sangvis droids hidden in this factory.
And now, within this factory area, the thousands of Sangvis droids have been fully active.
If they still act rashly as they did when they came in, they will definitely be beaten into sieves by those Dolls!
"But the question is, how do we get out now?" M4 looked at the Sangvis Dolls moving outside the door in distress through the crack of the door.
These groups of Dolls move at a distance of no more than two meters from each other. They are all connected in a circle, walking in circles repeatedly in the entire Sangvis factory. There is no gap or opportunity for the three of them to run out.
"Then... try the jammer probe?" RO frowned and thought for a while, then took out the jammer probe that had been used to deal with the Mastermind from her bag.
If it was just to cause a little interference in the passage between the two maintenance channels, she could still do it.
"No, no, don't worry, the times have changed now, don't always think about solving problems by yourself."
Since Persica said that Renault boss would send someone to pick them up and leave this damn place, she must have offered Renault a very high price.
And now, they have encountered a little trouble here, so it shouldn't be a big deal to ask Renault boss's dolls to pick them up and deal with a little problem within the allowed range, right?
Watching M16 skillfully sending messages with her mobile phone, M4 thought for a moment and figured out what M16 was going to do.
"What? Are you contacting Commander Renault's doll?"
"Yes, I sent messages to Simonov and , asking them who was sent to support us from Boss Renault's side."
Only after knowing who was coming to support could she send messages to the other party to ask for help.
"Uh, those two guys... I hope they are not drunk..." Hearing the two names M16 said, RO635 was stunned for a moment, and then muttered in silence.
They are all M16's drinking buddies. I didn't expect M16 to ask for their mobile phone numbers...
However, just as M16 was patiently waiting for Simonov's two drunks to reply to the message, gunshots and explosions were heard outside the factory again.
And this time the noise was louder than the previous one!
"M4! Listen! There's a sound outside! Could it be that the people from Boss Renault's side have arrived?"
"No, this sound... is the same as the gunshot that helped us divert the Sangvis Patrol Team outside before!" M4 frowned. If it weren't for the sudden gunshot, she would have forgotten that there was another team outside the factory to assist them.
...
"Ah, it's true... this drum is too useless." RPK16 took off the drum with some annoyance, stuffed it back into her bag, and directly took out a universal magazine to load it.
When she helped divert those patrols before, she had already emptied the two drums she carried in one breath.
This drum that had just been emptied was loaded one by one by her during her free time.
Hearing RPK16's complaint that she didn't know how to appreciate her blessings, AN94 and AK15 couldn't help but give her a blank look. They wanted to use it, but it hasn't been used yet. This girl really doesn't know what's good for her.
"Okay, stop complaining. We have stirred up a hornet's nest this time!" AK12 opened her eyes and stared at the factory.
Although there was no alarm this time, the Sangvis' Ferri dolls rushing out of the factory gate like a tide have already explained everything with their actions.
"Why are there so many!? Could the AR team have been caught?!"
Chapter 130 It's really convenient
"It's possible that Griffin contacted Renault to rescue the AR team because they were captured," AK12 said, running and looking back at the Sangvis dolls rushing towards them.
They didn't open fire to stop them, because it would be useless except for wasting bullets. There were too many Sangvis dolls.
Even if they used all their ammunition and could kill two Sangvis dolls with every shot, there was no way to guarantee that they could completely wipe out so many Sangvis dolls.
What's more, this is the Sangvis factory. The factory that is still in operation must be producing Sangvis dolls continuously.
"Tsk, that means we are just incidental," RPK16 curled her lips. Although she had guessed this possibility a long time ago, he still felt a little unhappy when she thought of this.
"Okay, don't worry about whether it's something you brought with you, just run. We can't handle those droids anymore."
"Then... what about the three members of the AR team? The information should be..."
"There's no way to confirm it now..." AK12 was talking, but RPK16 gestured to stop her from saying anything.
"Stop, they've got the documents, but there are too many Sangvis Dolls active in the factory now, and they're trapped inside," RPK16 said, looking at her phone.
"Did you get the message? Was it sent by M16 or M4?" AK12 looked at RPK16's phone in surprise. It was impossible not to envy her.
After all, the phone in RPK16's hand was too convenient, and she didn't have to worry about being discovered. When she gets inside Boss Renault's spaceship later, she must ask if she could buy one of these.
"Ah, M16 sent a message. They have received news that someone is coming back to pick them up. Let's find a safe place to hide first."
"Hide? How can we find them later..." AK12 didn't finish her words, and saw RPK16 shaking the phone in her hand. She sighed helplessly. This thing is simply a magic weapon in this jammer-filled situation.
"Let's go!"
Since there is no need to slow down to attract the attention of those Sangvis dollls, AK12 naturally had no reason to continue to slow down and stay ahead of them.
The special body made by Statesec gives them mobility far beyond normal dolls or even Sangvis Ferri Dolls.
In just a few minutes, the four dolls disappeared into the nearby woods, leaving Destroyer chasing after them with nothing but anxious eyes!
"Damn it! How can they be so slippery! Are all these guys rats!?"
The irritated Destroyer fired several grenades into the woods in a rage, but unfortunately, apart from blowing up a few trees, there was no feedback at all, and the four dolls disappeared completely.
It is extremely difficult to find the tactical dolls who are more flexible than the Sangvis dolls and can decide their own routes of action in the woods, not to mention that Destroyer did not detect any communication signals from those dolls at all.
Obviously, those dolls have completely shut down all communication channels, and it is impossible to find those guys by this method.
...
"Huh, I think I'd better not think about driving an aircraft. This kind of ups and downs... It's really unbearable..."
Whether it's the miserable state of being crushed in the cockpit in the training device or the G-Force manuevers that make people nervous...
Anyway, she gave up. Before, her brain, no, her neural core must have been flooded to want to learn to drive an aircraft.
This job is really not suitable for her!
"Well, don't worry about these trivial matters. Anyway, this is how it is here in Renault. When there is something going on, they are busy every day, and when there is nothing going on, they are so idle that they can grow mushrooms." UMP45 shrugged and smiled.
"It's the kind of business that doesn't open for three years, but can make a living for three years after opening," UMP40 also added at the right time.
Most of the business done by Renault is a no-cost business. Whether it is transportation or selling vegetables, the cost is infinitely close to zero. Only when fighting will a large amount of ammunition be consumed.
Now Renault is planning to expand the spacecraft again. Maybe when the spacecraft is expanded, they won't even need to buy all kinds of ammunition from outside.
"Sure enough, I stayed in Griffin for too long. I am a little unaccustomed for a while. When I was in Griffin, I was either patrolling or patrolling. Occasionally, I went on missions, which were all things like helping to maintain public order."
WA2000 sighed. She always felt that life in Renault was a little bit... um, wild? Or rough?
"Just relax a bit. Oh, M16 sent a message. They seem to be trapped inside the factory by the Sangvis Ferri and can't get out. Hey! I wonder if I can take some photos! I can sell them to MDR then!"
Seeing the message sent by M16, HK416 immediately raised her lips. She was already imagining how M16's face in defeat this time.
"Huh? Trapped? Do they need rescue?" UMP40 raised her eyebrows and turned her head to ask.
She just didn't know if she could get more money if she took the initiative to rescue them.
"Not necessary for now. I guess they are hiding well. Those droids are really... um, I'm not talking about you, Maria." HK416 was about to say it when she suddenly saw Maria sitting opposite her and eating snacks.
"Well, it doesn't matter. It's almost the same anyway. By the way, just drop me off on the road next to the main building."
"Okay, then we'll go pick up DEFY as planned." UMP45 nodded and raised her hand to open the hatch at the rear.
As the hatch opened, the not-so-violent cold air rushed into the cabin, causing WA2000, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, to shiver.
But it wasn't fear, it was just a little cold all of a sudden. On the road below the gunship, countless Sangvis dolls were searching for the intruders.
But they didn't seem to react at all to the flying object that was flying over their heads. This was probably the Sangvis identification system on the gunship taking effect.
As the gunship lowered its altitude, Maria unfastened her seat belt, grabbed her small backpack, stuffed snacks in her mouth, and turned back to say hello to HK416, "Then I'll go down first, remember to come back and pick me up later, and if I see the AR team, I can help you bring them out."
As soon as the voice fell, she had already jumped out of the hatch and smashed to the ground from dozens of meters in the air.
Bang!
Looking at Maria who jumped down, WA2000 couldn't help but marvel in her heart and touched her body.
It turned out that this body would be fine even if it jumped from a height of dozens of meters?
Chapter 131 I Want to Be Quiet
Maria landed with a bang, causing all the Sangvis Ferri Dolls near the landing point to stop and look at her one by one.
But it was only for a moment. The next moment, these Sangvis Ferri Dolls turned their heads and continued to search along their previous routes as if they had not seen anything.
"Well, fortunately, I have eaten all the potato chips, otherwise, they would all be broken if I came like this," Maria said with some relief after looking at the small cakes that had turned into crumbs in her backpack.
Fortunately, G3 had put the bags on when he handed these snacks to her, otherwise, she might not have been able to keep this small backpack.
"It's really nostalgic. I haven't been back here for a long time," Maria said with emotion, looking up at the huge building complex in front of her while carrying a backpack.
Maria had no intention of stopping to take a look. She had been here since she was born and was familiar with the layout and structure of the main factory.
There was nothing to see here. The sky was the gray sky of the pollution zone. There was nothing interesting in the factory except the Sangvis Ferri droids. They were all hard iron lumps.
Rather than sighing here, she might as well take back her things and go to the factory to see where M16 and the others were.
While thinking, Maria took out a small arm-length device from her small backpack. After breaking it open, it turned into a small filming drone.
"Hey, MDR, can you hear it?"
"I can hear it clearly! It's OK! I am a genius!"
MDR's voice rang out from the filming drone, and then the drone turned around and took pictures of the surrounding environment.
"Well, you can take your time to shoot. I'll go find my inventory. I don't know if Agent has thrown away the items, but it shouldn't be, right?" Maria waved her hand. She was still a little worried about her room. After all, Sangvis emphasizes efficiency and probably wouldn't keep her room.
In addition to directly converting the room into factory internal land, it is more likely that her room would be directly occupied by another new Destroyer...
If she did care about this kind of thing before, now, after seeing that Scarecrow and Hunter have become doubles, she suddenly doesn't think there is anything to worry about.
It's double, so what's the point of worrying about it? Renault's meals are not too full. It's just one more Destroyer. How much more can she eat?
Although Maria usually eats a lot of snacks, she can't eat a few mouthfuls of rice when she eats. Maria's appetite is actually not much different from that of Nagant Revolver and other dolls who eat the least.
Of course, people like SPAS-12 and Type 56 are rare everywhere, but not every doll can eat as much as they do... Otherwise, Griffin would have been bankrupted long ago. Even if MREs were provided to the dolls for three meals a day, it would still be the same, because food and vegetables are not cheap these days.
Maria is familiar with the road, and she has the Sangvis Ferri recognition system, so all the gates along the way are useless to her. Maria also ate snacks while strolling back to the door of her dormitory in the factory.
At the same time that Maria returned to the main factory, the AR team and M4, who were still hiding in the maintenance channel, were bored and watching the various Sangvis dolls coming and going outside.
"These guys... are all moving now. It's not a good idea for us to hide here all the time." RO635 said with some concern. It's a bit too negative to let her sit here and wait for rescue from Renault, right?
"Relax and wait for rescue is the safest way. There is no Griffin's doll echelon to support the Sangvis Ferri main factory now, and even if there is, with the number of Sangvis Ferris in the factory, it will definitely not be solved in a short time."
M16 sent the news that he and others stayed here to wait for Renault's rescue to RPK16, and RPK16 also sent the number of dolls outside the main factory and the approximate number of dolls rushing out of the main factory to M16.
Thousands of Sangvis Ferri dolls, and all gathered in the main factory, this is not difficult to describe. If the three of them rushed out like this, they would really be in trouble.
"But... the longer the time is delayed, the more likely the Ringleaders on the Sangvis Ferri side will come back. Hasn't Commander Gentiane retreated?"
Having said that, RO is still a little worried. Because once the other elite dolls come back, the dolls in the Sangvis Ferri factory will definitely become more flexible, and they are not 100% safe hiding here.
"That being said, those guys will definitely not be able to get back within at least 20 minutes, and Renault's people must have arrived. Didn't you hear the loud noise just now?"
Although it sounded very light to them, M16 was sure that the dull noise just now was definitely someone jumping down from a high altitude.
Who would do such a dangerous thing as jumping down from a high altitude if they were normal dolls? So who else could do such a scary thing except the dolls of Boss Renault?
...
It's over! I screwed up!
What to do!? What to do!? What to do!?
The Sangvis Ferri Destroyer's mind was completely a mess at this time. The redundant data that had just been cleaned up not long ago suddenly appeared in large amounts in just a few minutes, making her mind work again confused.
At the same time, she was worried that if she reported the situation here truthfully, Agent would directly dismantle her. Although she commanded a large number of Sangvis Ferri dolls to search deep into the woods, Destroyer did not hold out much hope because the woods were too big. Although it would take some effort to get out, there were too many exits to count!
As the guard of the Sangvis Ferri General Factory, Destroyer obviously could not run around within Sangvis Ferri. Compared with catching the invaders, the order to guard the Sangvis Ferri General Factory had a higher priority.
The uneasy Destroyer did not return directly to the command room of the factory but returned to her own dormitory, intending to rest in her own little nest before facing Agent's questioning.
Unfortunately, just when she arrived at the door of her dormitory, Destroyer found that the hatch that should have been closed was now open, and inside, there seemed to be a doll rummaging through the boxes...?
Hmm?
Chapter 132 Revisiting the Old Place?
Buzz——!
The noise produced by the engine and the piercing whistling sound in the sky came together, causing AK12 and his companions, who were hiding in the forest and watching the situation, to look up at the sky.
"Oh! Here it comes!" RPK16 stood up directly from the newly dug pit and waved at the gunship in the sky.
As for whether he would mistake it for something else? Impossible. The gunship of the Renault family is unique in appearance and movement. No other faction has an engine capable of making such a strange gunship that looks completely un-aerodynamic fly into the sky.
Although AK12 and her companions were not in the depths of the dense forest, the gaps between the trees were not enough for the gunship to land steadily.
And the way UMP45 dealt with this was...
Click!
The gunship, which was not too large, violently broke several fir trees that blocked its landing position and then swayed to the ground. However, due to the stumps of those trees, the gunship was now in a skewed state.
Well, it was still a little shaky.
"Bosses, come up." As UMP45 spoke, the rear hatch of the gunship opened, but it was stuck by a tree halfway open.
AK12 and the others, who had just gathered, looked at the hatch that was only half a person's height helplessly.
"This... Can't we wait until we find a place to land?"
While speaking, AK12 helplessly crawled through the gap in the hatch, and the three people behind her followed suit.
"No need. This gunship is not like Griffin's inconvenient transport planes. It's very sturdy. There's no need to worry. At most, we just need to go back and paint it."
The tail hatch closed immediately after everyone climbed in. The gunship, which had an unstable landing posture, was lifted off again in a crooked movement. HK416, who had expected the rough driving style of UMP45, sat in her seat calmly, with the seat belts fixing her firmly in place.
But the RPK16 and the others who had just climbed up were not so lucky. They swayed left and right and rolled in the cabin. The four people who were not so embarrassed when they were chased by Sangvis were instantly defeated now.
"Alas... I knew that cheap goods are bad. If we pay more, can we get better treatment? At least not like riding a roller coaster?" RPK16 said helplessly and did not forget to fasten herself to the seat with the seat belt while speaking.
"I don't know about that, but this time we can only come out to make some extra money. If it's Renault, well, it's probably about the same." UMP45 shrugged her shoulders. At most, she would just drive the gunship to crash into a few trees.
If it were Renault, he would probably let the spaceship directly crush a forest.
"Earn extra money? In other words, all the commission money this time will end up in your wallets?"
As if she had touched the switch, AK12 suddenly became energetic. UMP45's words were like a bolt from the blue to her!
This is unfair! They fought and risked their lives everywhere under Ange's command!
They carried out a lot of life-threatening and high-risk missions, but the money they collected was only enough for UMP45 and the others to run out and drive a taxi!?
"Yes, what else? Renault doesn't care about this little money." HK416 added.
AK12's face darkened, and she sat there in silence. She now probably understood why those dolls under Renault were willing to be kidnapped from Griffin. If it were her... she would be willing too!
While she was struggling with whether to find a way to change jobs, the gunship driven by UMP45 had already returned to the sky above the Sangvis Ferri General Factory.
"Hmm? What are those in the distance?" WA2000, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, suddenly took out a monocular telescope from her pocket and squinted her eyes to look at the distant sky.
"Sangvis Ferri's transport planes. If nothing unexpected happens, those guys will soon be back. Judging from the distance, it should be about six or seven minutes. 416, call Maria to urge her, or you two can go down and look for those guys in the AR team."
Looking at the transport planes approaching rapidly on the detector and the armored units rushing towards this side from the ground, it is impossible to say that she is not anxious. UMP45 turned her head and looked at HK416 and UMP40.
If the two of them go down together, HK416 will be responsible for dealing with the elite dolls who may come out to cause trouble, and UMP40 will help control the other Sangvis dolls.
Perfect, the plan works.
"Okay, let's go." HK416 stood up happily, checked her equipment, and turned to look at UMP40, who had not moved yet.
This guy obviously doesn't want to move...
"Hey, don't always think about taking lazing off. Most of 45's salary has been subsidized to you to pay off your debts, right? Move, if you continue like this, you will become a lazy guy, and you won't get your share of the reward."
"Uh, I'll go! I'll go! Don't deduct my share!" Upon hearing this, UMP40 immediately became honest, quickly grabbed the imprint weapon that she hadn't used for a long time, and followed behind HK416.
HK416 nodded with satisfaction, but just as she raised her hand to open the hatch of the gunship, she looked at the imprint weapon in UMP40's hand.
UMP40, who hadn't been on a mission for a while, obviously didn't take good care of her imprint weapon. The gun oil on the surface of the gun body began to get dirty. She even saw some food residue stuck in the gap of the rail... and cat hair...
"Are you sure the weapon in your hand can still fire? Don't let it explode later."
"Uh, ahem! Even for me, I still have this level of professionalism. I checked it before leaving. Although it looks a little dirty, it doesn't affect the use at all! There will be no problem!"
And I'm an electronic warfare doll, okay? Why do I need to do this kind of thing myself?
While complaining in her heart, UMP40 followed HK416 and jumped out of the hatch.
On the way here, the two had already switched to the identification code of the Sangvis Ferri dolls, so there was no need to worry that the Sangvis Ferri dolls would suddenly attack them.
Bang! Bang!
After two huge landing sounds were heard in succession, the two immediately rushed into the interior of the Sangvis Ferri factory.
HK416 took out her cell phone while running, intending to call Maria to ask about the situation. In the few seconds waiting for the call to be connected, HK416 also looked at the building in front of her with emotion.
At the beginning, she had a conflict with UMP40 and was kicked out of the action team. In the end, her core was almost melted. Unexpectedly, after so much time, she came to this place with UMP40.
Of course, she was just only a little emotional.
After all, the current situation is different from the past. Her original little obsessions have long been smashed by Renault.
Chapter 133 Don't Go!
"Who are you? Who?" Seeing someone rummaging through the boxes in her dormitory, the already unhappy Destroyer shouted at the intruder.
But when the figure stood up and turned to look at her, Destroyer's mind was suddenly confused...
There was no doubt that the person in the beautiful little skirt opposite her was a humanoid of unknown origin... It was clearly a Destroyer who looked exactly like herself!
What's going on!? Did the Dreamer judge her as damaged just because she ran out?
No, no, no! Even if that's the case, the time to create a new Destroyer is too short!
"Oh? This is unexpected. I didn't think the one who stayed behind was a Destroyer. Well, this makes sense. After all, I was the one guarding the main factory!" Maria nodded slowly, with an "I knew it" expression.
After all, she had already seen two Scarecrows, so when she saw another Destroyer, Maria was mentally prepared. Although she usually seemed carefree, she did think things through!
But while Maria was prepared, the Sangvis Destroyer was not.
Didn’t she see the child? She was so dumbfounded, her eyes wide open, and her brain almost crashed on the spot.
"Hey, don't just stand there. I remember having a few CDs that Scarecrow gave me in an old gift box. Did you move them somewhere else?"
Destroyer's dormitory was certainly not tidy, with all kinds of things placed in a mess. This mess was not created by Maria; those things were originally disorganized. If they were neat, she might have found what she wanted by now.
"Ah, ha? You! What's going on? You came to my dormitory talking to yourself! And why do you have the same face as me?"
"Really? Why haven't you figured out the situation yet? I'm your predecessor, and you're the second or third generation of Destroyer. Do you understand?"
Listening to Maria's words, Destroyer nodded in confusion and put down her hand that was pointing at Maria.
"If you understand, help me find that box. I like those CDs, and I have to pick someone up after I find them."
Although the Sangvis Destroyer didn't quite understand, since the other party had already said that she was also a Destroyer, and the identification signal on her body was also an Sangvis doll, she didn't think much about it.
She rummaged under the bed a few times and found a worn-out gift box that looked old.
"This box... why don't I have any memories related to this?" Looking at the box in her hand, the Sangvis Destroyer asked Maria in a daze.
Although she knew about this box before, she had no memory related to it. Scarecrow seemed to know something, but before Destroyer found a chance to ask Scarecrow the reason, she was taken by Dreamer to other jurisdictions to perform tasks.
"No memory? Ah, if you don't have it, then don't worry about it. It doesn't matter to you much. I just want to look at the tracks on it. You can keep these CDs." Maria suddenly felt a bit reluctant as she looked at Destroyer in front of her, who looked exactly like her, and shrugged her shoulders.
After looking through the tracks written on the CD boxes, Maria handed the box back.
She didn't lack money at all and could buy CDs anytime. This old one would be left as a souvenir for Destroyer in front of her. With the current state of Sangvis Ferri, the chance of getting ordinary daily necessities was small.
Although it can be downloaded on the internet, once the Sangvis Ferri network is connected to other regions' networks, it is very likely to be invaded. After all, there are many people with powerful technology in this world.
Seeing the gift box returned to her, the Sangvis Destroyer was stunned, "Huh?"
A rhythmic ring suddenly sounded, and Maria answered the phone in front of Destroyer without any care.
"Hmm? 416, what happened?"
"Did you find anything? 40 and I have come in, where are the people from the AR team?"
On the other side of the phone, HK416 looked at the roads in front of her with a headache. This huge Sangvis Ferri factory, from the outside, is nothing but a huge factory.
But only when you come in person will you find that the roads here are so complicated that they are like a maze. If you don't have a map or are not quite familiar with this place, it is simply difficult to find people.
"Huh? Another group of people came so soon? I just got the things, and I haven't had time to find M4 and the others." Maria said so, carrying her small backpack, and planned to go out to find the three people from the AR team.
But the word ‘M4’ that she blurted out immediately made the Sangvis Destroyer wake up with a start, “Hey hey hey! Wait! Wait! You can’t leave! What are you doing here!? You just said M4, right!? Are they still inside the factory!?”
“Maria? Who else is there with you?”
“Oh, it’s Destroyer. I just ran into her when I was looking for something. Wait a minute, I’ll go find her…” Maria was about to say this, but HK416 on the other side suddenly changed her mind.
“No, no, you go back to the gunship and wait. We’ll find them soon. That’s it. I’ll hang up first.” After speaking, HK416 quickly hung up the phone.
Maria had no objection to this. After all, she just came here to look for something. It didn’t matter if she didn’t need to help. Anyway, she wouldn’t get any reward in the end.
"Wait! Are you in the same group with Griffin? Dreamer! What are you waiting for! If you don't come out, she'll run away!"
Destroyer, whose mind finally came to its senses, finally realized Maria's current identity. She grabbed Maria and shouted at the door.
Dreamer's real body was hiding in the room next to her dormitory, so as long as she shouted loudly, Dreamer would definitely hear it.
And now that such an "important person" has been captured, the Dreamer should have a reason to take action!
"Huh? What Griffin? I'm not Griffin's doll. Let go quickly. I'm in a hurry to go back!"
Maria patted Destroyer's head in annoyance, trying to get this idiot who held her tightly around the waist... No, she can't be called an idiot because that would feel like insulting herself.
"I don't believe it! You are here to save M4! Dreamer! Come out quickly! M4 is still in the factory now!"
Chapter 134 Don't Stop Me!
"Tsk, I really can't keep hiding when it matters. Destroyer, hold on to this guy; I'll be there soon. This guy must know the location of M4 and the others." Dreamer, who had always been paying attention to the situation around Destroyer, really had to show up now. She was planning to let Destroyer take the blame.
Now, as soon as Destroyer called out, part of the communication records she had erased to hide herself were completely wasted. It was a pity that she had deliberately erased the communication records from those few minutes after Destroyer went out.
If it happens again now... The mainframe and Agent will return to the factory in a few minutes. If they clean up once, there is indeed enough time, but if Destroyer shouts her name regardless...
Tsk! So this is the bad thing about idiots! All her plans were calculated, but they were ruined by an idiot's shout!
Thinking of this, Dreamer didn't care about hiding anymore. She grabbed her weapon from the side and rushed out of the room, running towards Destroyer.
The two rooms were not far apart. It took only one or two seconds at most for Maria, who was being held tightly by Destroyer, to see the figure of Dreamer at the other end of the passage.
"Hmm? Who's this doll I haven't seen before? Is it a new doll created by the Agent?" Looking at the rather unfamiliar appearance of Dreamer, Maria pushed Destroyer's head and raised her eyebrows in a strange way.
"Hmph, it's two against one now. You have no chance. Surrender obediently. I can guarantee that you won't be dismantled by Agent. Otherwise, I can't protect you either." Facing Maria's question, Dreamer did not intend to answer.
Looking at Maria's face that was exactly the same as Destroyer's, she felt a little irritated for no reason.
"Huh? What do you mean by surrendering obediently? Do you think you can defeat me with a big toy? I won't play with you two here!" Looking at the particle weapon that had already lit up in Dreamer's hand, Destroyer frowned.
Just now, although HK416 didn't say that she had found M4 and the others, since 416 said no, there was no need for her to take the initiative to go over and cause trouble. Anyway, this commission had nothing to do with her.
"Play?"
After hearing Maria's words, Dreamer came to her senses.
No matter how smart this guy in front of her looked, she was still Destroyer after all! She didn't think at all!
Can't you understand the situation?? Didn't you see that the muzzle of my gun was already pointed at you! Believe it or not, I will take your head off on the spot!
Dreamer roared in her heart, and of course, she did the same with her hands.
As she pulled the trigger, the weapon that had already condensed shot out a thick beam of light!
Straight to Maria's head!
"Ah!" Maria, who really didn't expect Dreamer to fire inside the factory, was really scared, but thanks to the excellent mobility of the body, even with a "large pendant" hanging on her body, Maria still successfully dodged to the side.
"Ouch!" Destroyer dragged by Maria also fell directly to the ground under Maria's action, and her cheek hit the metal ground directly.
This new Sangvis doll named Dreamer actually opened fire without caring about Destroyer's position. Maria didn't expect this. Although she just dodged to the side, her body was not seriously injured, but her clothes were not so lucky.
"Ah--! My skirt!?"
Seeing that a large piece of her skirt had been swallowed by the beam and was now on fire, Maria quickly raised her hand to slap away the small flames, and then glared at Dreamer with an angry look.
Although she was angry, Maria didn't lose her mind. This skirt was just a product made by P90. It was no pity if it was broken. After all, even at home, her clothes would not last more than three days.
Right now, she was still inside the Iron-Blooded factory. If she continued to stay here, she would definitely not get any good results.
Besides, she didn't bring any weapons at all!
She just came here to get something! If she wanted to fight, she would go find HK416!
Seeing Maria glaring at her, Dreamer approached and prepared to attack again, ready to fire at any time if Maria made any unusual movements.
However, what she didn't expect was that Maria, besides glaring at her angrily, didn't even say a harsh word, turned around and ran away after turning over and getting up!
"Hey!? Stop!"
"Ahhh!"
Even though she just landed on her face, Destroyer didn't let go of her hands holding Maria's waist.
If the engine hadn't been replaced at the beginning, dragging a heavy Sangvis doll would indeed give Maria a headache, because it would consume more energy.
But now it's different; who is glaring at you here! I'm still in a hurry to get on the gunship!
Maria rushed out suddenly and rushed directly to the factory gate with her "pendant".
The "pendant" on her waist was directly dragged up, which shows that Maria really tried her best this time.
"Eh!? Ah! Wait! Stop!"
Dreamer never thought Maria could run away with a dol clinging to her. She was caught off guard and missed another shot.
She quickly chased after her!
...
"Here, here!" UMP40 waved to HK416 with ease. She had been to this factory before, so she knew the terrain here very well. After all, they got the structural diagram of the entire factory when they were on theo mission.
The maintenance passage that M16 led M4 through before was of course a piece of cake for UMP40.
And even if she didn't know the terrain here in advance, she could get it by just finding a terminal to connect to.
After all, terrain maps are not rare for Sangvis Ferri. Even ordinary Sangvis Ferri dolls have this thing in their minds, but there is no information related to the maintenance passage.
"Are you sure you can temporarily block the Griffin signal on the guys in the AR team?"
"Of course, have some faith in me, okay? Although I'm not good at fighting, I can still do this little thing." UMP40 patted her chest confidently, extremely confident.
"Hmph, don't ask me to save the situation if you flip over later."
"Absolutely impossible! Just watch me! Ah, here it is, they should be inside."
Looking at the maintenance passage gate that UMP40 pointed at, HK416 looked down at the ground and raised her eyebrows, "These Sangvis Ferris are really... can't they see such obvious footprints?"
While speaking, HK416 directly pulled the gate open with force.
Squeak.
Crash!
As the gate opened, the three figures inside the door raised their guns at the same time.
Only after seeing HK416 at the door did they breathe a sigh of relief and put down their weapons.
Chapter 135: Swaggering
"Huh, you guys went here really fast. We just received the message to wait for rescue a few minutes ago."
In this situation, surrounded by a group of Sangvis Ferri droids in the Sangvis Ferri Factory, nothing can make people feel more excited than seeing a familiar face.
"We weren't really in a hurry, we went outside to pick up Task Force DEFY before going here,, and now your the last ones needed to be rescued," HK416 said, looking back at UMP40. After seeing the other party nod for confirmation, she waved to the three people in the maintenance channel, indicating that they should come out quickly.
"Well, under normal circumstances, shouldn't you pick us up first and then pick up others?" Hearing what HK416 said, M16 smiled bitterly.
"That's the general situation. Maria came here to get something, so we put her down first and then went to pick up DEFY."
After hearing HK416's words, RO and M4, who had blank expression on their faces, suddenly became embarrassed.
It turned out that when they were extremely anxious, their rescue had already flown back and forth in and out of the Sangvis factory...
"By the way, those Sangvis patrols outside..." RO635 was about to say that there were more Sangvis outside and wanted to ask HK416 if they had any solutions, but before she finished speaking, she met the eyes of a team of Sangvis Guard units who were walking towards her.
What?
The moment she saw those guards, RO635 wanted to raise her gun to attack, but before she raised her hand, M16 pressed it down again.
Although she didn't know what M16 meant by doing this, RO635 also tightened the imprint weapon in her hand and looked nervously at the team of Sangvis Guards who were gradually approaching.
But the next scene made her stunned. Because those Sangvis Guards didn't make any extra movements. After they made eye contact, they didn't keep their eyes on them at all. It was as if they didn't see anyone here. They walked away to the other side of the corridor.
"Hmm? Don't stand there. Let's go!" UMP40, who had already walked several steps and was almost level with the team of guards, turned back and called out loudly.
"Oh."
The three M4s following HK416 and UMP40 saw the state of the dolls under Renault and the Sangvis again...
Do whatever they want.
It can only be said that they do whatever they want. They never thought about it when they came. When they came in, they were so cautious, afraid that they would slip and get their shoes wet. As a result, when they came out now... they looked like a group of uncles.
What Sangvis patrol? What Sangvis authentication equipment?
Anyway, they walked all the way from the place where they were trapped before, without encountering any obstacles, and the whole process was green light, and they almost let those Sangvis dolls stand on both sides of the road to see them off.
"So... what was the point of us sneaking in so carefully before?" RO635 looked at the open door of the Sangvis Factory and silently calculated in her heart.
Let alone the various losses of the feint attack by Commander Gentiane, the two teams, AR Team and Task Force DEFY, were sent to the dangerous location of the Sangvis Factory by transport planes.
The fuel money burned was at least hundreds of thousands; if you add the dummy dolls that were lost on the front battlefield, the ammunition that was used, and the various losses during the dispatch process.
This operation, the money spent must be at least 18 million; if you add the mission subsidy for Gentiane's group of dolls...
"Well, it's probably meaningless..." M16 also shrugged her shoulders. Although she also wanted to say that next time Persica should go directly to Renault for anything. The price is cheap, the quality is guaranteed, and the speed is incredibly fast... Griffin can be completely eliminated.
However, when it comes to M4, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better, although it is very likely that Boss Renault already knows everything.
After all, their spaceship is circling back and forth in the sky, and they can know any movement on the ground in real time.
Just like this time, not long after the message was sent out, they appeared in front of them. This kind of high-efficiency work attitude, let alone Griffin, only Boss Renault can do it in the whole world.
While the two were talking, a figure rushed out of the door with a whoosh, and it seemed that there was something hanging on her body.
"Wait! Stop right there!? Bastard! Don't run if you have the guts!"
"Ha! Catch up if you have the guts!"
The two figures were one in front and one behind, with a distance of about dozens of meters in between.
Unfortunately, these dozens of meters were like a punishment from heaven for Dreamer. No matter how she accelerated, she couldn't catch up with the guy in front!
The other party even had time to turn around and make ugly faces at her, and occasionally grabbed the passing Sangvis Ferri Dolls and threw them at her.
"That's... Maria?" UMP40 was also stunned. She didn't expect Maria to appear at this time. She thought Maria had returned to the gunship.
"Yes, it seems that the two elite dolls who stayed in the factory have targeted her," HK416 nodded and continued to move forward slowly.
It's not that she's not anxious, but UMP45 has already driven the gunship over. After seeing them come out, it has begun to lower the altitude and opened the rear hatch.
You can be anxious all you want, but there is clearly no need.
And Maria, who rushed out in a hurry, saw the hatch of the gunship slowly opening and rushed over without waiting for the gunship to lower to a suitable altitude, and jumped up without saying anything!
"Ahhhhhhhh!" The 'pendant' still hanging on Maria screamed in fear of the sudden change in height.
Maria is not afraid of heights now. She lives on the spaceship every day. How can she be afraid of heights?
Holding the hatch tightly with both hands, she flipped into the gunship cabin with force.
"Damn!" Seeing Maria successfully enter the gunship, Dreamer was also a little anxious. She picked up her weapon and aimed at the fuselage of the gunship to fire.
However, before she could pull the trigger, a leather boot kicked up from behind her.
"Get out of the way!" HK416 frowned.
Although this kick did not use too much force, it was definitely not light for Dreamer, a small doll.
"Ah!?"
The heavy body of the Sangvis Ferri doll was kicked several meters away like an empty can under HK416's feet, and the weapon in her hand also slipped out of her grasp.
"What!? M4! AR team! Where did you come from!?" Dreamer turned around to find out who attacked her, and then noticed the three people following UMP40.
"Walking out of the gate, where else could we come out?" RO635 raised her eyebrows, smiling and said to Dreamer.
Looking at the mocking smile on RO635's face, Dreamer's teeth were almost broken, and she tried to rush out to get her weapon back.
However, HK416 was prepared. When Dreamer moved, she stepped forward and kicked the huge weapon dozens of meters away.
Chapter 136: Breakaway
"You!?" Dreamer was so embarrassed that she was furious. She stared at HK416 with bloodshot eyes and tried to get up again.
However, HK416 pointed the gun at Dreamer's head first.
Looking at the black muzzle in front of her, Dreamer wanted to shout a few words, but she gritted her teeth and held it back.
Although she didn't know why, the dolls in front of her didn't seem to have the intention to kill her directly here, otherwise, she would have been hit by more than just a kick from HK416, but a series of bullets.
Seeing the situation, M16 shrugged her shoulders, trotted a few steps, and then climbed up the rear hatch of the gunship. After turning over and climbing up, she reached out and pulled RO and M4 up.
UMP40 patted HK416 on the shoulder, jumped lightly, and leaped directly onto the rear hatch more than two meters above the ground. HK416 did the same. When she turned around and jumped onto the gunship, she didn't worry at all that Dreamer would attack her from behind.
"Damn it! You bastards!"
Watching a group of dolls get into the cabin one after another, and the gunship quickly pulling up, Dreamer angrily slapped the ground and roared at the sky.
However, she couldn't do anything except yell.
Although HK416's kick didn't look heavy, Dreamer could feel that her body had been severely damaged. Several modules inside her body were broken, and even the shell near the energy core was cracked. If she didn't hurry to repair it...
"Uh, why do I always feel that these dolls of Boss Renault are the villains?" Looking at Dreamer, who was trembling and climbing up below, AK12 pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong with that. Don't you see how many elite dolls Renault has taken from Sangvis? Now there are almost none left."
According to the intelligence of State Security, the Ringleaders that have appeared on the Sangvis side so far, only Agent and Judge were left, and Dreamer is the new one standing below.
Renault directly poached most of the elite dolls of Sangvis, and according to the doll command system of Sangvis, these elite dolls that have been poached are the command nodes of Sangvis units.
If it were Griffin, it would be equivalent to Renault not only poaching most of Griffin's commanders with high salaries but also directly reaching out to pull out the bases of those commanders from the mud and take them away.
AK12, who heard what RPK16 said, thought about it in her heart and found that it was indeed the case. She couldn't help but pull the corner of her mouth awkwardly.
It can only be said that Renault has been hated to the core by the Sangvis Mastermind and the remaining three elite dolls.
Of course, where these Sangvis Ferri will go in the end is not something they can know.
Statesec is still very interested in these Sangvis Ferri. After all, the combat effectiveness of these elite Sangvis Ferri is that one elite doll can match an elite tactical doll troop.
If the threat from the Sangvis Ferri can be eliminated and these dolls can be included in the combat force of Statesec, they are still very supportive.
If Sangvis Ferri are in the enemy camp, it will definitely make people hate them, but if Sangvis Ferri are in their own hands, it should be another story.
"By the way, HK416, why didn't you bring Dreamer up just now? I remember that Renault likes to kidnap Sangvis Ferri dolls" RPK16 turned her head to look at the 'pendant' still hanging on Maria and asked HK416 with some surprise.
"Hmm? Is it? I just didn't think about it. Besides, the living space on the spaceship is tight recently. The last bed is occupied by Nyto. If someone else comes, they can only move to the cat room to keep the pet company."
Or occupy Renault's captain's room...
Of course, this is just a thought. Which daring guy dares to run into Renault's room and act wild? I'm afraid that the next day they can only look at other people's ankles and calves.
Well, after being loaded into the Dinergate, if you look straight ahead, you can only see these.
"Living... living space is tight..." AK12 scratched her head and thought about Renault's huge spaceship. That thing is several stories high.
How can such a huge spaceship have tight space?
"Yes, I always feel that there are too many dolls on the ship recently. After all, the ship is not entirely for living space. Apart from the power area and the weapon area, most of the remaining space is either vertical farms or breeding farms, and the warehouses also occupy a lot of space. In addition, there are two Jupiter cannons in the cargo hold..." UMP40 said while counting on her fingers.
No wonder Renault started to prepare to expand the spacecraft before.
"Cat room?" Perhaps because she heard the word cat, AN94, who had been sitting quietly with AK15, asked softly for the first time. Her eyes, which had no emotions before, were looking at HK416 with inquiring eyes.
"Huh? Didn't you come to the ship before... Oh! I forgot that the room was recently made after you left." UMP40 was a little surprised, but then she remembered that the room was just made not long ago.
In her opinion, it was unnecessary.
After all, no matter whether it was big orange or the little princess of BM59, or the two troublemakers of UMP40, they didn't need to live in a special room.
These little guys eat the crops of the vertical farm every day, and the collapse radiation in general can't do anything to them, so there is no need to place them in a special room.
And the reason why such a place was suddenly sorted out a few days ago... It has something to do with the debt owed by UMP40 at this time.
As we all know... cats like to sharpen their claws... so...
Of course, there is no need to say the reason for this embarrassment. UMP40 didn't intend to say this little thing, but instead chatted with AN94 with great interest.
Seeing UMP40 chatting with AN94 quite familiarly, UMP45 pulled the corner of her mouth, and reminiscing like yesterday was reappearing.
"Commander, we have successfully evacuated and are now on Commander Renault's gunship. The next step..." M4 called Gentiane to report the situation. When she said this, she turned her head and looked at UMP45 in front of her.
"Go back to the spaceship first, and then let go down when the spaceship flies over your base. Don't worry, it won't take long, less than an hour." UMP45 didn't want to drive long distances.
How can driving a gunship by yourself be as comfortable as sitting in a spaceship and drinking tea?
Chapter 137: Let Go!
"So, what should we do with this guy? Just throw her down?"
Maria pushed Destroyer in annoyance. Even though she was already on the gunship, Destroyer still didn't let go of her grip and held Maria tightly.
At the Sangvis Ferri Factory, she didn't let go in order to keep Maria safe.
And now... she was too scared to let go...
Just kidding! Like Maria, she didn't bring any weapons! She faced two troops of tactical dolls in the gunship with empty hands, and they were all elite tactical dolls with live ammunition.
If she made any unusual movements, she would be shot in the head by these dolls!
"No! Don't! I'll die if I fall from a high height!" Hearing what UMP45 said, Destroyer became anxious and shouted loudly.
Maria, who was caught by Destroyer, looked at the trembling appearance of Destroyer at this time, and the simple and easy-to-understand words "follow your heart" become more and more prominent in her eyes, and she became more and more determined to throw this guy off the gunship.
After all, this guy doesn't look smart enough.
If she was brought back to the spaceship, she may become a producer of her black history in the future...
MDR! He will never miss such a good opportunity!
She has already heard the sound of the shutter on HK416's mobile phone!
Destroyer looked up and saw Maria's face getting darker and darker.
Now she was really desperate.
"Wait! Wait! You are also Destroyer, right? Three plus one equals five! Wait a minute, we are the same person! You want to kill yourself! You can't do it!"
When Maria heard what Destroyer said, her face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot. She raised her hand and hit Destroyer on the head with a slap.
"I didn't kill myself! And what's the meaning of three seconds and five seconds! It's called two plus one equals five, okay!"
Hearing the conversation between Maria and Destroyer, HK416 pulled the corner of her mouth, silently recorded the conversation between the two, and then sent it directly to MDR.
The quarrel between Maria and Destroyer did not affect UMP45's driving skills. In just ten minutes, UMP45 drove the gunship into the hangar of the spacecraft again.
"Huh, although it's not really down to earth, it always feels a lot more reassuring than being in the sky." After stepping on the hangar floor, M16 also breathed a sigh of relief.
The missions imposed by Persica and Griffin were really frightening. If there hadn't been someone to pick them up this time, and the people who picked up were the not people under Renault and the gunship, the AR team would really have been defeated at the Sangvis Ferri General Factory this time.
"Well, but we are still in the sky now, right?" RO looked around. The hangar and the cargo hold looked no different from before. The only difference was the two Jupiter cannons in the cargo hold.
"No, no, no, this is different. Boss Renault's spaceship can be called a piece of land flying in the sky. Look at those armor plates that are at least one meter thick. It's full of security." M16 took a deep breath and said with a cracked mouth. She seemed to be able to smell the alcohol in the air.
There is nothing more relaxing than having a good drink after a mission!
"Oh oh oh——! Why is the paint peeling off here? And it's a large piece!? UMP45!"
M16 was thinking when a familiar voice rang from the side.
Simonov, who was still holding a wine bottle in his hand, screamed while staring at the scratches on the fuselage with drunken eyes.
"Hey, it's inevitable when you're on a mission. It's just a little accident. Don't worry, I'll come and fix the paint in a while." UMP45 said to Simonov with a smile.
But after she finished speaking, UMP45 did not leave. Instead, she smiled and came to Simonov's side, hugging Simonov's shoulders affectionately, "Hey, Simonov, look, I haven't done this job of fixing the paint before..."
"Ah ha? No! Whoever damages it should repair it! Unless it can't be repaired! You all agreed to this condition at the beginning!" Before UMP45 finished speaking, Simonov had already started to quarrel.
A pair of drunken eyes blinked hard, trying to force UMP45 to admit it with her eyes.
But UMP45 was not so easy to deal with, "No, no, I didn't say I won't repair it. I just don't know what color paint was used on the gunship. Since you did most of the work before, it should be okay for you to help get some qualified paint?"
"Huh? What's so difficult about this! Wait! M16, hold it for me! I can handle this little thing in minutes!"
Simonov, who was obviously drunk, didn't delve into what UMP45 meant by this. She immediately agreed, stuffed the wine jug in her hand into M16's arms, and rolled up her sleeves and ran towards the warehouse.
Seeing Simonov leave, UMP45 started to greet everyone, "Let's go! Let's go to the cafe and have a drink!"
Seeing UMP45's smiling face, UMP40 and HK416 knew what this guy was up to. It was obvious that she saw that Simonov was drunk, so she wanted to trick her.
Of course, UMP40 and HK416 did not express their opinions on this situation. They turned their heads away silently, as if they had heard nothing.
WA2000 had no idea about the precautions when using the gunship. She just thought that UMP45 was making some small calculations, but it had nothing to do with her, so she didn't say much.
When Simonov came back happily with two buckets of prepared paint and spraying tools, the hangar was already empty.
"Hic! Hmm? What did I want to do?" Simonov, feeling dizzy, looked at the empty hangar in a strange way, and then she saw the scratches on the gunship's fuselage and the paint on her hands.
"Hic! Oh, paint, I just thought I forgot something, icy! Hurry up and finish it and go back to drink!" Shaking her blurred head, Simonov picked up the tools skillfully and repainted the gunship.
Apart from the drunk Simonov, after Maria walked out of the hangar, she did not go to the restaurant with HK416 and the others but returned to her dormitory first. Her clothes were burned in a large area and had to be changed.
After staying at Renault for so long, she has deeply realized that as long as she is dressed properly, no one will say that she is a fool!
Therefore, changing clothes is very important! It's just that this burden is a bit too annoying!
"You guy! Let go! How long do you want to hold on to me!?"
It would have been fine if she had held her in the Sangvis Ferri Factory and on the gunship, but why is it that now that we're already inside the spaceship, this guy still refuses to let go!?
Chapter 138: You Are...
"See, this is what happens when you don't listen. Be careful, or Renault will stuff you into the rice cooker!" Maria, who had changed her clothes, said seriously, taking her mobile phone back from Destroyer.
Destroyer was already scared by Alchemist's personal experience.
Well, people get stuffed into soldier ants here anytime, is this place really this scary?
Destroyer thought, looking timidly at the dormitory door. "Um... Can I stay here and not go out?"
She didn't know what to do after going out, but she knew Maria would definitely take her to find the commander named Renault... If the other party got angry...
"No! No way! I don't want to squeeze into the same room with you! This room is already full!"
"No! I can sleep on the floor! Just give me a bedroll, or a sleeping bag if you don't have one!"
"No! The charging port is right here, and you still need space when you charge! It's useless to argue! Follow me!"
Maria stretched out her hand and pinched the back of Destroyer's neck without saying anything. She realized that as long as she pinched this spot, Destroyer struggles would be useless. No wonder Commander Renault always liked to pinch this spot when restraining people.
In response, Destroyer could only cry and be carried by Maria obediently, walking towards Renault's workshop.
Not to mention the situation on Maria's side, M4 and others who had just arrived on the ship also came to the restaurant.
SOP2 and AR15, who had heard that M4 was coming, had been waiting here for a while.
Of course, they were not in a hurry because they had just met not long ago.
"Well, I have an illusion now, it seems that Griffin Base is not our home base, but this spaceship is..." RO635 said with a smile as she looked at SOP2 who was waving at her and others.
And after getting off the gunboat, RO635 felt that she suddenly relaxed. Was it because this spaceship was too safe?
"So, M4, why don't you just quit your job with Persica and switch over here!" SOP2 said excitedly without thinking too much.
Facing SOP2's hopeful eyes, M4 scratched her cheek awkwardly. "That being said, job-hopping... shouldn't be possible, right?"
The idea is good, but there's no possibility of realization. Let's not talk about whether Persica will let go, Griffin alone will not let go easily, right?
"Okay, SOP2, things are not that simple."
AR15 also advised. If M4 and the others were directly taken away from Persica, Persica would probably be a little sad, right?
Probably?
"Not simple? How could it be? I think Commander Renault always easily pulled the dolls over?"
"Ahem, that's different. Those dolls were either severely damaged and Griffin couldn't repair them, or they took the initiative to leave Griffin. Normally speaking, Commander Renault has never poached anyone." AR15 cleared her throat and said awkwardly.
Recently, she hadn't been doing nothing. Most of the work on the ship had nothing to do with her, so she took the opportunity to look through the black history book compiled by MDR.
Although it was called the Black History Collection, MDR actually wrote down the origins of all the dolls in that book. Although it was not in the paper version, the electronic version recorded all of Renault's experiences along the way in detail.
"Well, although we can't change jobs, it's already good now. If... I mean, if we want to come and take a look, Commander Renault shouldn't refuse, right?" M4 asked AR15 with some uncertainty.
"Well, it shouldn't be. After all, we've been very idle recently, but we may go to some farther places later. I don't know if there will be another opportunity to meet often"
"Yes, it seems that we have to go to some heavily polluted areas to find various materials, so..."
"SOP2!" Hearing SOP2 told Renault's next move without any scheming, AR15 rolled her eyes at this guy unhappily.
"Uh? What's wrong? Commander Renault didn't say we can't tell anyone, did we? I asked before."
After hearing their next plan from Scarecrow, she asked Renault about it.
At that time, Renault said, 'It's okay, you can tell anyone, I will remind you in advance if there are any confidential matters.'
When SOP2 said this, both AR15 and M4 breathed a sigh of relief, but there was a noise at the entrance of the restaurant.
"Come on! Come on! Hang on! You can do it! Come on!"
"That's right! Renate! It's just a little bit more! There are still ten steps! Only ten steps away!"
The unusual noise made M4 and AK12, who had just sat down in the restaurant, turn their heads curiously, wondering what these shouts were about.
Although they had come to Renault's spaceship before, even if there was noise, it was mostly the fights between those small dolls. They had never heard this kind of words of cheering someone up.
Besides... ten steps? Persistence? What kind of thing requires persistence to walk ten steps?
Are dolls so fragile? A distance of ten steps, wouldn't it be reached in an instant?
But the thoughts in their minds did not come true. After more than ten seconds or even half a minute, the cheering voices had not disappeared. It seemed that the 'Renate' they were talking about had not yet reached the door.
"What's going on outside?" AK12 stood up in a strange way, walked to the door, and looked out.
It doesn't matter if you don't look. After seeing the figure surrounded by a group of dolls in the corridor, AK12 opened her eyes with some doubts about life!
After rubbing her eyes and confirming that what she saw was not an illusion, she looked back at RPK16 who was sitting with AK15 and drinking a drink.
After going back and forth several times, AK12 closed her eyes and returned to her seat with a strange look on her face.
"What's the matter with that you outside? Is that what you brought to Renault before?"
"Oh? Is she outside? I didn't expect Renault to move so quickly. I clearly remember that Renault still has several dolls that have not changed their bodies." RPK16 said while looking at the three large cats surrounding UMP40 and a group of cats.
Hearing RPK16's words, AK12 suddenly looked strange. Although she knew that RPK16 must have brought something to Renault, she really didn't expect that RPK16 would actually send 'her' neural core to Renault...
Now, there is another RPK16 outside, and it will come in a few seconds... no, it will take about dozens of seconds...
Chapter 139 Exercise Plan
"The last step! There is only one step left!" NZ75 held a stopwatch in her hand, waved her arms, and shouted loudly to the former Dinergate RPK16, now Miss Renate.
Whizz! Whiff!
Breathing heavily, Miss Renate's forehead veins bulged, her face flushed, carrying a 30-kilogram barbell that was not heavy for a doll, and she slowly moved the last step to the restaurant door.
Her T-shirt was completely soaked, leaving patches of sweat on the route she passed.
"Uh! Ahhh——!" Miss Renate struggled to take the last step and finally stood at the door of the restaurant.
"OK! Miss Complete!" NZ75 said, pressing the stopwatch in her hand, "Yeah, there is progress. It only took twelve minutes to climb up from the bottom. Not bad!"
G11 and Nagant Revolver's mecha plan encountered a setback as G11 and Nagant Revolver began to modify the plan. NZ75 and others had nothing else to do, so they just ran over to supervise Renate's training.
Although her new body can automatically improve her physical fitness over time, if she doesn't exercise at all, this time is likely to be stretched to a long time.
And with so many dolls on the ship, who doesn't look forward to using the new body? How can they sit back and watch Miss Renate's laziness!?
Ahem, in fact, it's just interesting to see Renate sweating profusely from exhaustion.
Plop!
When she heard the sound of NZ75 pressing the stopwatch, Renate's feet softened and she sat down on the ground. PK, who had been standing behind her, took the barbell she was carrying and put it at the door of the restaurant.
"Alright! Drag her away! Drag her away! Someone feed Miss Renate!"
Although they arrived at the door of the restaurant, the dolls obviously had no intention of letting Renate go. With a wave of NZ75's hand, MG42 and M870, who were grinning, dragged Renate into the restaurant with one foot each.
Seeing Renate being dragged in like a corpse, RPK16, who was smiling at AK12 just now, was startled and jumped up from her seat.
Although she thought that she would definitely suffer a little at Renault's place, she didn't expect that she would really suffer this time!
What the hell is this? Is this a torture method from somewhere?
"Uh-huh." Looking at Renate being dragged to the ground next to the dining table, RPK16 cleared her throat.
When she heard RPK16's voice, Renate struggled to raise her head, looked at the 'her' standing in front of her, and rolled her eyes unhappily.
'I don't want to talk now! Get out of my way!'
That was probably what her eyes meant.
RPK16, who was given a sanitary eye, was suddenly embarrassed. She never thought that this 'her' would treat her so badly.
"What is this!?" After Renate raised her head, AK15, who was sitting next to AK12, also noticed that the person on the ground who looked like a dead fish was exactly the same as RPK16.
She suddenly couldn't sit still, turned her head, and looked at AK12 with a probing look, trying to get some answers from her.
"Uh." Facing AK15's gaze, AK12 also held her forehead with a headache. She didn't know how to explain this matter. "Anyway, this person on the ground is another one made with RPK16's neural core..."
AK12 was about to say the word "doll," but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly came to her senses.
This person on the ground, called Renate by other dolls, no matter how you look at it... doesn't look like a doll at all!
How can a doll carry a 30-kilogram barbell and not be able to walk!?
"Is this the new body Renault gave you? This... doesn't feel like a doll frame... huh?"
RPK16 ignored Renate's annoyed look and started working directly, but found that Renate's body seemed to... have a heartbeat...
This? Is it necessary to make it so realistic? Even the heartbeat and pulse are made?
"Okay, sit up quickly and wipe your sweat." MG34 and G43 came over, helped Renate up from the ground, let her sit on the chair, and then took out a towel to wipe Renate's sweat.
Then, Buzzsaw and the others also came over with a lot of food. Type 56 took the lead in placing the two casseroles in front of Renate.
"Here! It's time to eat! Stewed chicken! Stewed pork ribs! Whatever you eat, you will be replenished!" 56 put down the casserole and turned back again. Shs and Buzzsaw took turns running several times until the table in front of Renate was full.
This scene immediately stunned RPK16. She was a little confused about what was going on.
Why did it seem that the treatment of this "her"... seemed too good?
What did she do? Why did her status seem to be special now?
Smelling the fragrance from the table in front of her, Renate felt nauseous at this time, "Huh, let me rest." As she said, she frowned.
"OK, but remember to hurry up, the training plan set by Scarecrow for you is not over yet." NZ75 shook the stopwatch in her hand at Renate, and then ran to the table where CF05 and Wu Liushi were to eat.
"You..."
AK12 opened her eyes wide and looked up and down at Renate with her jaw gaping.
"Huh, what? Are you curious? This is the new body made by Renault, or a living body, how about it?" Renate said, while raising her hand with some effort to smooth her tangled hair.
Although her eyes had fed back all the data, AK12 was shocked when she heard Renate say this.
After a while, she murmured, "Boss Renault... is really not an ordinary person..."
"It's really a living body? Then what are you now? Is it in doll!? Where is your neural core?"
RPK16 was not as restrained as AK12. After personally checking Renate, she asked in shock.
"I don't know either. Anyway, I'm probably not a doll, right? As for the neural core, it should still be in the body, but the way it exists is a little different from before. I can't describe how it's different. Anyway, I feel that this world is more intuitive."
While talking, Renate also picked up the chopsticks and ate happily. Although she was a little tired, there were not many opportunities like this where someone brought food to her every day. If she didn't enjoy it in time, she wouldn't be able to experience it in the future.
Although the strength and endurance of the body have not increased much, the recovery speed of this body is still very fast. The uncomfortable feeling just now disappeared after a short rest.
"More intuitive?" RPK16 couldn't help but squint her eyes enviously when she heard this.
Even someone as cold-faced as AK15 couldn't help but stare blankly at Renate, not knowing what she was thinking.
Chapter 140 Blood Loss
"Two...RPK16s?"
RO635 was really confused by Renate, who was having dinner with Task Force DEFY.
Shouldn't RPK16 be a doll under Angelia? Why is there one on Renault's side?
"It can't be considered two, right? The one on Renault's side has changed its name to Renate, and... there is no signal response from Renate on the detection module, but there is one more signal source on the life detector..." M16 said so, but the fact that a life signature appeared where a doll should be can't help but make people stunned.
Renault transformed a doll into a living... person?
RO635 and M4 were silent after hearing what M16 said. Let's not talk about whether it is feasible to transform a doll into a human. This behavior alone has violated many official regulations on dolls.
And the most important thing is... this sudden appearance of Renate... directly caused some unknown changes in the ideas of a group of dolls in Renault's family.
Even AR15 and SOP2 looked at Renate with envy.
"Um, AR15, you two don't want to change into that kind of body, do you?" RO635 scratched her head hesitantly after noticing the look in their eyes. She knew it from Renate's performance just now.
The sweaty look on their foreheads showed that their physical fitness was obviously not very good. If AR15 and the others changed into that kind of body, how could they be competent for the work of tactical dolls... er, combatants?
Could it be that they wanted to settle down in the coffee shop like Springfield and just do some ordinary work every day?
"Yes, that was newly made by the commander... er, or grown... well, that's not right, anyway, it's a body that just grew out of the culture tank. As long as I change my body, I can get rid of this body of more than 200 kilograms now!"
SOP2 had no shame about this and blurted it out, causing the surrounding dolls to stagnate at the same time.
Well, this weight problem has almost become a pain in the hearts of all the dolls under Renault.
You are so blatant and loud now. Don’t you feel embarrassed at all?
More than 200 kilograms...
M16’s eyes twitched when she heard it. No wonder HK416 was able to hang her up and beat her. This was not a heavyweight fight at all. And a heavy body like this... She was really thankful that HK416 didn’t punch her into a pancake!
While thinking, M16 glanced in the direction of HK416. The guy was finishing a rib and didn’t notice the gaze from M16.
She's really relaxed a lot.
If it was HK416 who worked with her in the Statesec before, she would probably have noticed her sight by now, right?
However, it must be said that most of the dolls in Renault’s spaceship are very relaxed, because it is impossible for anyone to invade this spaceship.
To invade the spaceship, you first need a flying machine that can keep up with the speed of the spaceship, and then you need equipment that can cut the armor layer behind one meter.
As for electronic invasion, UMP45 doesn't think anyone can do it, not only because the main systems of this spaceship are all built by Renault himself, but more importantly, the core data in the system uses a kind of unknown text that she can't understand at all.
Anyway, UMP45 doesn't think it's a text on Earth, it's very likely an alien text.
Back to now, after M4 and AR15 chatted with them in the restaurant, the spaceship has arrived. MP5, who has been helping in the kitchen and wearing an apron, also greeted them from behind the counter.
"M4! RO! You are here! M1 Garand asked me to inform you that you can go to the exit and wait to get off the ship."
"Oh, thank you." M16 waved, put down the wine pot, picked up her weapon and stood up to leave.
AK12 and her men not far away also stood up, called AN94 who was still petting the cat, and walked towards the exit of the spaceship together.
AR15 and SOP2 did not go down to send them off this time. It was okay to send them off once, and it was barely enough to send them off twice.
This was the third time, so why should they send them off again...
The AR team came to the Renault spaceship so frequently, maybe one day they would make it their permanent place.
M4 and her men who got off the spaceship looked back at the spaceship that took off again, and then looked at the Griffin base with few people, and couldn't help but sigh, "No matter how many times you look at it, Renault's spaceship is so enviable."
"It's useless to envy, Ange can't afford a big spaceship." RPK16 shrugged her shoulders and responded to AK12's words.
"M4, are Commander Gentiane and the others not back yet?" M16 looked around, and the number of guards and patrol personnel in the Griffin base was much less than usual.
This time, Gentiane pulled out most of the doll troops in the base for a feint attack, so the defense of the base was inevitably a bit shabby.
"Well, they haven't come back yet. It may take them a while to come back. Many vehicles have been destroyed by the Jupiter cannon of the Sangvis Ferri." M4 said with some embarrassment on her face.
Their mission this time, if the small section inside the factory surrounded by the Sangvis Ferri was excluded, the whole operation was very smooth.
They were not attacked by a large number of Sangvis, nor were they imprisoned, and they did not fight to the point of running out of ammunition and food because of their deep alone.
If you count the ease and comfort on the return journey... it's almost the same as going out for an outing...
It's just that they are relaxed here, but Gentiane's side is a bit unbearable.
...
"Have you counted the personnel? What about the damage to the dolls?" Gentiane asked worriedly while sitting in the truck bed, letting G36 wrap her head tightly with a bandage.
"Because we left all the dummies in place when we retreated, the damage to the dummy was not great. Only 17 dummies were seriously injured and 23 were slightly injured, but some dummies were completely wiped out and had no value for recovery."
After Griffin's dummies evacuated, those dummies were first bombarded by the Jupiter cannon, and then they were cleared out by the Sangvis Ferri puppets. If they go back now, I'm afraid that all they can see are some fragments.
"Huh, it's good that the dummies themselves are fine. How long will it take for us to return to the base?" Gentiane said, raising her hand to touch her head, but just as she touched it, G36 slapped her hand away.
"It will take about 28 hours." G36 said the estimated time, "Also, please don't touch the wound casually, it may be infected."
"Yes, yes, alas, this time Helian may be angry again, all those transport planes are gone... I..."
Chapter 141 Destroyer: I am very good
"Heh!" Renault, who had a good sleep, stretched while walking. He had just come out of his room and met Renate, who was running with sweat all over her head.
"Huh, it looks like a comfortable life, Commander Renault," Renate said through gritted teeth after taking a few deep breaths, looking at Renault, who was comfortable and exuding a lazy atmosphere from head to toe.
It is true that she was ecstatic to get a body that is almost exactly the same as a human, but she did not expect that the process of "rehabilitation" would be so tiring!
"Huh? Why are you running?" Renault asked in surprise, looking at the sweat spilled all over the floor behind Renate, and the Rippers who were mopping the floor with bitter faces behind her.
Although he reduced the growth rate of Renate's body, there was no need to exercise so diligently, right? Or does this guy have some unknown habit?
"Huh, isn't it the others who say they want to change their body quickly, and urge me to exercise to shorten the growth process of this body." Although the words sounded a little indignant, Renault clearly saw the corners of this guy's mouth curl up.
She seemed to be enjoying it.
"It's up to you. Remember not to do too much strength training, otherwise don't say I didn't remind you when you grow into a muscular man," Renault pointed to the sandbag hanging on Renate's calf and said meaningfully.
He deliberately let Renate's body grow slowly, mainly to prevent the shape of the bones in this girl's body from undergoing secondary development. Appropriate exercise is indeed necessary, but too much is not good.
If she trains to death without caring, maybe even the shells of the Zerg will grow. By then, her body will not be similar to humans, and may be even less human than that of the Queen of Blades....
"Uh... is there actually a thing like thaf?" Hearing Renault's words, Renate felt a little empty in her heart, and quickly took off all the weights on her body.
In fact, the exercise plan arranged by Scarecrow for her has been completed for today, and she is just doing more exercises now.
Compared to when she was still in doll form, she could casually hold a machine gun, carry a set of electronic warfare equipment on her body, and run around with hundreds of bullets. Her body is really weak to the point of being indescribably weak.
Maybe she has not even reached the average level of ordinary humans.
"Okay, don't be nervous, I'm just reminding you not to exercise too much, and you won't get the hot tofu if you are impatient."
"Uh, then, Renault, what will happen if you really exercise too much?"
"It's not a big problem, but the bone structure will grow again and develop in the direction of a Predator."
"Predator?"
"To put it bluntly, it will grow claws, fangs and the like, and maybe an exoskeleton or a shell like an Zerg."
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, Renate gasped immediately. She had never expected such an outrageous development!
"Speaking of which, this body... shouldn't be purely human, right?"
She was put into the culture tank by Renault not long ago.
It has grown into an adult in such a short time. This growth rate is definitely not something a human body can achieve, right?
"Of course it is, if it is a human body, can it easily go to the battlefield?"
Among the dolls in their family, how many can persevere and exercise their bodies and hone their skills year after year?
It's impossible, it doesn't exist. It's okay to let these children play every day, but let them exercise every day to keep their bodies in good condition? I'm afraid they are daydreaming.
And it's impossible for a trained body to fight like the original tactical dolls. Even if it is trained, it can't catch up with the base body used by the dolls before.
Although the weight of the base body is seriously overweight, it is undeniable that the combat power of the base body is definitely superior to most dolls in this world.
Renault did not replace the dolls with a body that is worse than the original lump of iron.
"I'm going to the workshop. If you have any questions, come to me. If someone urges you, just let her come to the workshop to find me."
After saying that, Renault waved his hand and prepared to go to work.
"Wait!"
"Huh?"
"Why do you want to replace my body first? With the condition of this body, it should be okay even if you replace first the plane pilot from Griffin, right?" Anyway, they are all growing up slowly, and Renate couldn't figure out why Renault asked her to come first.
"Reason? It's just that your neural clous is more mature, there is no other special reason."
Compared to the Griffin pilot doll that fell into his hands at the same time as Renate, it is obvious that Renate's neural cloud is more mature. Otherwise, if it were a child, she might be coerced by other dolls that day and disobey orders.
Hearing this, Renate shrugged her shoulders as if relieved. She really thought too much. Renault probably didn't think much in his mind.
Looking back at the corridor, Renate sighed helplessly again. She was so tired. Next time she went out, she might as well catch a Prowler to get around. She didn't know if she could give orders directly to these Sangvis Ferri dolls now.
At this time, in the workshop, in addition to the two Scarecrows, there was also a guy who had just arrived on the spaceship, who was already sitting here waiting.
"Hey, Scarecrow, when will the commander come? I've been sitting here for hours." Destroyer raised her hand timidly and asked the two scarecrows hesitantly.
"Soon, the commander has woken up and should be here in a few minutes... coming."
While Scarecrow was talking, Renault had already opened the door of the workshop and walked in.
"Huh? Maria, why did you change into your old clothes again?" Looking at Destroyer in front of her who looked exactly like Maria, Renault was still a little unresponsive.
"Uh, commander, this is not Maria, but another Destroyer she just brought back from Sangvis?"
"Huh? Maria also went to the Sangvis General Factory? Why did she bring back another one?" Hearing this, Renault frowned immediately.
Since it's Destroyer, then he thinks her temperament should be similar to Maria. Maria can almost be said to be at the same level as the two troublemakers in UMP40.
It was because she had stayed at home for a long time that she was much more obedient. If another little fool came now... I'm afraid the ship would be in turmoil again.
Hearing the faint "disdain" in Renault's mouth, the already nervous Destroyer sat up straight and tried to make herself look more obedient.
Chapter 142 Fortunately, I don't have to pay
"Okay, you can get up now. Just follow Maria from now on. Of course, don't overdo it."
In addition to deleting some base code protocols, Renault didn't have anything to do to Destroyer. After waiting for less than two minutes, Renault unplugged the data cable and waved at Destroyer.
"Uh? Is this... all right?"
"Of course, what do you think? Go ahead, remember not to cause damage on the ship casually."
Destroyer, who was asked to leave the workshop, didn't realize what had happened until she stood at the door of the workshop.
To be honest, she was still a little worried at first, concerned that Renault would directly dismantle her into parts or something, but in the end, he just deleted some insignificant base code protocols?
Is that even something important? It seems like there is no visible change in her.
Destroyer, who was standing at the door and hadn't recovered yet, was suddenly patted on the head by Scarecrow with her hair tied into a single ponytail. "If you don't know the way, ask the passing dolls or Sangvis Ferri. Of course, be nice, or else don't say I didn't warn you if you get beaten up."
Under normal circumstances, this shouldn't happen, but given Maria's not-so-good reputation at home, especially her careless personality of losing things and leaving things randomly, many Sangvis Ferri dolls have already listed her as a secondary target of attention.
The primary target of attention is SPAS-12, who likes to eat hamburgers and fried foods the most, and often drops crumbs.
Even if she doesn't eat while walking, she may still drop something on her body, and more importantly, after eating, this girl often leaves an oily handprint in some inconspicuous place that she herself doesn't know about.
"Surrounded... beaten up..." Looking at Scarecrow who turned around and returned to the workshop, Destroyer's expression, which had just relaxed, suddenly froze. She looked at the two Rippers who were leaning on the mop and chatting not far away with a sense of sympathy.
It should be the Rippers, right? Although the Rippers themselves have buns, their highly recognizable hair and purple highlights make them recognizable at a glance.
But? Can Rippers chat? The Rippers she saw in the Sangvis Ferri Factory were all silent right?
Although she was doubtful, Destroyer still listened to Scarecrow's words. In order to avoid being beaten up by those Sangvis Ferri dolls and passing dolls, Destroyer was extremely polite to everyone along the way, making Hunter who met this girl later think that she had met a fake Destroyer.
…
"Commander Gentiane! Are you injured!?" M4 couldn't help but exclaim when she saw Gentiane with a bandage on her head appear in front of her.
"Ah? Oh, a minor injury, it's okay, but what are you doing? Are you injured during the mission?" Gentiane looked at M4 lying on Persica's workbench with some surprise, not knowing whether she was transmitting data or repairing it, and said with some surprise.
She remember G36 seemed to say that Renault's operation was very successful. Not only the AR team, but also Task Force DEFY were brought back together. There was not even a single extra scratch on the dolls.
"Oh, Gentiane, you're here. Wait a minute. I'll be done soon." Persica looked up at Gentiane at the door and roughly guessed why she came.
Although this operation was a task assigned to Gentiane by Helian on behalf of the headquarters, the funds needed to be allocated from Persica's 16lab. After all, this task was apparently commissioned by Persica.
As for where the money in Persica's pocket came from? That has nothing to do with Gentiane. She was just legally asking for her salary this time.
After Persica finished the work at hand, Gentiane stood up from the sofa impatiently, "Persica, can you settle the commission fee first? Otherwise, I can't even afford to eat."
Of course, it's not so exaggerated that I can't afford to feed people, but this operation is definitely a heavy loss.
Most of the tactical doll dummies have been damaged. If all the doll dummies are to be replaced, even if Gentiane is sold, she can't get so much money. In addition, if she is asked to compensate for the damaged transport planes, she will probably have to work for Griffin for the rest of her life.
Fortunately, before the mission began, the contract between the two parties had stated that the loss this time would be borne by both 16lab and IOP.
Before, the AR team and Task Force DEFY returned to the base first. Before Kalina could react, Persica had already hurriedly pulled M4 to do something, and Kalina couldn't force open the door of Persica's laboratory.
Actually, collecting debts was Kalina's job, but now she was busy counting the losses and writing the combat records into a written report, so collecting debts could only fall on the patient, Gentiane.
Fortunately, Persica didn't want to default on the debt, but she was in a hurry and didn't think about it.
After getting the money, Gentiane was a little curious about what experiments Persica had conducted on M4, but seeing that Persica didn't have time to look up, she could only shake her head and leave.
M4 didn't stay here either. She had been lying here for a long time. Since Persica just said that it was okay, she certainly wouldn't stay here and stand there stupidly.
For a moment, Persica was the only one left sitting behind the data terminal, biting her finger and frowning, "Just a little bit... Just a little bit... What exactly is missing?"
Not to mention the guy who was stuck in a dead end and kept biting her finger, the base of Gentiane became lively again. Although they had just escaped from the siege of a group of Sangvis Ferri armored units, it did not seem to affect the mood of those dolls.
Except for those dolls who needed to be sent to the repair warehouse for deep repair, most of the dolls began to chirp and make a fuss, and a large part of the dolls went to Griffin's food warehouse.
While Kalina was busy writing a report, they felt it necessary to reward themselves.
Gentiane, who successfully asked for the commission from Persica, probably never thought that her biggest crisis did not come from Sangvis Ferri, nor from the reprimand of her superiors, but from those dolls who wanted to eat up all the food in the warehouse one by one.
Gentiane is now on her way back to her dormitory. Although the wound on her head is not big, she has lost a lot of blood. In addition, she has not had a good sleep on the way back, so she feels a little dizzy now.
Chapter 143: Another Sucker?
A familiar ceiling.
Opening her eyes, Gentiane saw a ceiling she recognized but couldn't quite place. She was sure this wasn't her dormitory because the troublemaker P7 had broken the ceiling lamp in her dormitory.
Only the lampshade was broken, but the lamp inside was still functional. She didn't replace it to save money, as it was her own, and no one other than Dolls visited her dormitory.
"Awake?" Just as Gentiane was wondering how she ended up in another room, a slightly unfamiliar voice suddenly spoke from her side.
"Huh!?"
Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Gentiane jumped up from the bed instantly, but when she saw the two figures next to her, she was suddenly stunned.
"Uh? Boss? And Agent Helian? What are you doing here?"
"Heh, it seems Commander Gentiane is in very good health, maybe just had bad luck this time." Kryuger looked at Gentiane, who had turned over and jumped up, and laughed. He really didn't expect Gentiane to jump up so nimbly after being seriously injured.
"When you were bombarded, a piece of shrapnel got stuck in your skull. It's not big, but there is a little collapse radiation on it."
Helian looked up at Gentiane, who was standing stupidly in front of her without changing her expression, and she was a little doubtful whether this person was human.
Although the shrapnel wasn't large, judging by the strength of a normal human skull, it was almost a fatal injury, but Gentiane just resisted it. Afterward, she wrapped it with a bandage and thought it was over.
Finally, she ran to Persica to pay the bill before returning to her dormitory and falling asleep.
If G36 hadn't called her to eat, she wouldn't have woken up, and Gentiane's injury probably wouldn't have been discovered.
And this person's recovery ability...seems to be far beyond the level of normal people. After the operation on her head, it healed itself in a short time.
"Um, how many days did I sleep?" Seeing her two superiors looking at her, Gentiane felt extremely embarrassed, sat down quickly, and asked carefully.
"Not long, only three days. To be exact, you slept for two days after the operation." What a lucky person.
Hearing this, Gentiane was also relieved. Fortunately, it was only three days. If it had been longer, who knows what her base would have become.
Seeing Gentiane pondering for a moment, Kryuger smiled and said, "You did a good job this time. The data in the File 7 obtained from the Sangvis Ferri General Factory is of great help to us."
After a slight pause, seeing Gentiane listening attentively, Kryuger continued.
"With this opportunity, the military has also shown its willingness to cooperate with us. We will have the opportunity to launch a..."
Gentiane's face flushed a little as she listened to her boss's words. Of course, she was not happy but a little embarrassed. After all, the subsequent evacuation of the AR team had nothing to do with her.
That was sent by Renault to pick it up. If it weren't for Renault's gunboat, the AR team would have been defeated this time.
She feels unworthy of it...
However, Gentiane did not interrupt her boss's words. The content was not much. The general meaning was that the military was going to cooperate with Griffin. They would unite with Griffin to give the Sangvis Ferri a hard blow, and it was even possible to directly defeat the remaining Sangvis Ferri in one fell swoop.
The excuse used was that they wanted to cooperate with Griffin to test Factical Dolls...
Is this really necessary? The military dolls were born for war. After all, the product of tactical dolls is only to alleviate the problem of insufficient combat personnel to a certain extent.
Before Griffin put tactical Dolls into the front line of the battle with Sangvis Ferri, the work of tactical Dolls was mostly ordinary tasks to maintain regional security and stability.
Only after the establishment of the AR team did the conflict between Griffin and Sangvis Ferri become more and more intense.
Just as Gentiane was thinking about it, her boss was almost finished, but this last piece of news caught her off guard.
"But before the joint action with the military, you need to go to a press conference with me."
"Uh? The military press conference?"
"Yes, I am relieved to see that you have recovered so well. Take a good rest these two days, but you don't have to be so active then." After saying that, Kryuger raised his hand and patted Gentiane's shoulder, turned, and walked out.
Helian also nodded to Gentiane and left the ward.
But before Gentiane could figure out the meaning of what she just said, the door of the ward that had just been closed opened again, and a large group of Dolls rushed in crying and shouting!
"Commander!?"
While shouting, someone jumped high and rushed directly towards Gentiane!
Seeing those Dolls flying into the air, Gentiane's eyes almost popped out!
Is she still a patient? Are you all trying to murder her!?
"Woo-poo!"
As expected, Gentiane was hit hard and pinned down by a group of Dolls.
...
"Commander Renault, there is a new commission on the company's website!"
While Gentiane was recovering from her injuries, the atmosphere in Renault's spaceship was peaceful, except for MDR, who rushed into the workshop while waving a tablet and shouting.
"Huh? New commission? Where did it come from?" Renault was really a little surprised when he heard this. He had received commissions from acquaintances and from Statesec, but this was the first time he received a commission from a website...
And it was clearly written on his website that he would not accept ordinary commissions, especially those with little money. Where did this fool come from to give him money?
"Cyber Media! Back then! I used to work in that company..."
"What? A comedian?"
"What! What comedian? An idol! A famous anchor!" MDR rolled her eyes at Renault in annoyance. How come this guy can't say anything nice?
The two scarecrows looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders. Can't MDR have some self-awareness? An idol? How is that possible!
"Come on, stop talking nonsense. How could a big company like Cyber Media come to us? They should have nothing to do with us, right?"
Chapter 144: Probably an Acquaintance
"What kind of job is this? Go to a crowded place to be a guard?" Looking at the brief task description sent by the other party, Renault frowned.
"Well, there's no other way, it's a job." MDR shrugged her shoulders and pointed to the commission payment. "But they pay a lot! Look! Look at this price! It can catch up with the earnings from the last vegetable sale!"
"Tsk, being a guard isn't as leasure as selling vegetables. Once the goods are delivered and the money is received, the deal is settled, and it's much easier to just leave."
To be honest, Renault now looks down on these commissions. After all, you can easily make money by selling vegetables, so why bother with these thankless and hard-earned commissions?
What's more, this kind of high-priced guard commission, especially when it involves protecting the lives and safety of others, isn't easy for dolls as action personnel.
The main location seems to be a famous luxury hotel. It seems the military is going to hold a press conference there, followed by a banquet or something.
Of course, the specific place and time aren't mentioned. These details may only be known after Renault discusses them with the other party.
The premise is that Renault accepts the commission.
But since the other party has already provided the general details of the commission, if you want to investigate, you can definitely find out.
After all, it's a public event like a press conference. How can you not find it?
"Uh? The military is going to cooperate with Griffin to conduct exercises? Do they need to hold a press conference just for this?" MDR asked, looking at the various news reports. She scratched her head in surprise.
She couldn't figure it out anyway. What's the point of holding a press conference for such a small matter? If they really want to do it, why not start with Sangvis Ferri first?
Isn't it okay to hold a press conference after the matter is done? Anyway, most of the areas occupied by Sangvis Ferri are contaminated zones. There are no people in those places. Even if the military does something, no ordinary people will see it.
Of course, the reason is definitely not as simple as MDR thought, but this is not a problem she needs to think about.
"Then... commander, do you want to accept this commission?" MDR scratched her head. Although this commission looks a bit strange, especially the high price offered by the other party, it always feels like a bit of a loss if you don't take it up.
"Leave it alone for now. If they are anxious, they will call me."
MDR was stunned, then shrugged helplessly. Other security contractors actively contact customers, but you have to wait for customers to call and ask.
You can't do business like this for long...
But to be honest, Renault is actually a little confused about what Cyber Media is planning.
Because it was a press conference held by the military, and the content was about joint exercises with Griffin, the security of the venue would most likely be handled by Griffin.
Since Griffin's tactical dolls were already responsible for security, why did these guys from Cyber Media seek them out separately?
He couldn't figure out the reason. If the other party really just found a security contractor at random, then Renault didn't need to rush over and make trouble for himself.
If the other party really had to use Renault for some reason, then he would consider whether to take this order.
For a task like escorting, it would be better if both parties could reach a certain consensus. Otherwise, if the employer was daydreaming all day, what was the need for an escort?
But it was obvious that Cyber Media really attached great importance to this press conference. MDR had just about to leave the workshop when Renault's cell phone rang in his pocket.
MDR immediately became alert when she heard the ringing of his cell phone. She rushed to the clothes rack, snatched the work from Scarecrow, took out the cell phone from her pocket, and handed it to Renault.
"This is Renault. Who is this?" Renault raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Long time no see! Boss Renault! I am Geralt!"
"Huh? Who is that?" MDR beside her tilted her head, wondering where she had heard the name Geralt before.
"It's the guy from Universal Anything. He seemed to be the director of a branch before. I don't know what he is doing now."
Scarecrow didn't forget. After all, Geralt was a guy who brought money. The most important thing was that he also sent Renault a very useful navigation permit.
"Hello, what's the matter?" Renault scratched his eyebrows in surprise and asked Geralt. He thought the person who called would be someone from Cyber Media, but he didn't expect it to be Geralt.
"Of course, but has Boss Renault received the commission? If I remember correctly, it should have been sent."
"The commission from Cyber Media? Did you switch to that place?"
"No, no, no, how could that be? It's just a commission from a friend. They want you to help protect their media staff."
"This kind of thing can be done by any security company, right? And the security of that press conference is handled by Griffin. There is no reason for me to go to someone else's place and cause trouble for them, right?"
"Ahem, sorry, actually it's like this. Cyber Media has a cooperative TV station, but their interviewers didn't have time to catch the plane to the press conference venue, and recently, the plane going in that direction has already been delayed, so..."
"Oh, that's easy. It's just picking someone up. It's not difficult. Wherever you are, I'll go directly..."
"Wait! Wait! Mr. Renault, the main problem is not this. Picking someone up is really just a matter of convenience. Although the Cyber Media staff can't make it there without you, the more important reason is that Cyber Media is worried that the military will attack them during the exercise."
"Huh? Wait? You said exercise? Isn't the commission to protect Cyber Media's interviewers during the press conference?"
Renault took the tablet back from MDR with some surprise and reconfirmed the commission form. It was indeed written that he was responsible for ensuring the personal safety of Cyber Media employees during the press conference.
"Well, this, in fact, the joint exercise between the military and Griffin is also considered a part of the press conference..."
Well, if it is counted strictly, after all, showing people the combat capabilities of the new generation of tactical dolls is the purpose of this press conference.
"In other words, we have to go to the press conference and participate in the subsequent exercises?"
Is this possible? Would the military allow security contractors other than Griffin to be present at the exercise site?
It was impossible.
Chapter 145 Why are you here?
"Of course, these questions can be left to Cybermedia. They will arrange a suitable identity for you and your doll. However, you need to submit the appearance information of the personnel involved in the operation first," Geralt said confidently. After all, he could make a small profit by introducing this commission.
Although Renault, the security contractor, is not very famous among security contractors, he has not done anything jaw-dropping. But with his skillful skills of entering and leaving the black zone as if it were an empty space last time and easily getting back what he wanted, and Renault's huge spaceship, Geralt thinks he is fully capable of handling this commission.
Other security contractors, one by one, refused this commission when they heard they were going to Griffin's territory to grab food.
Finally, with no one left on Cybermedia's side, they turned to Geralt, who had worked with Renault. The first thing to confirm is whether Renault has the ability to complete the commission. Otherwise, if a lot of money is spent but a guy with no skills is hired, the money is a small loss, but the reputation is a big one.
These days, no matter what profession a practitioner is in, as long as they has not been robbed of their job by a doll, they are definitely valuable. Besides, if this operation can really succeed and the specific situation of the joint exercise between the military and Griffin is captured, it will be big news even for Cybermedia.
Considering the target of the joint exercise between the military and Griffin, Cybermedia did not send out the news dolls under its command immediately.
A rumor had been circulating that Sangvis Ferri was spreading a virus to Griffin's dolls, and the infected dolls might even directly become Sangvis Ferri's dolls. Although ordinary people are not aware of this confidential information, Cybermedia can still get some details.
If they sent a doll, but it was infected by the virus and then destroyed by the military, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?
Therefore, when other media sent their own news dolls, Cybermedia felt it was necessary to find a well-known human media person to assess the situation. After all, it was dangerous to be close to the training ground and fight with the Sangvis Ferri. No normal media person would be willing to go, especially when most of the Sangvis Ferri-occupied areas were contaminated.
In the end, Renault nodded and agreed. If it was really as Geralt said, and the main content of the mission took place in the area near the battlefield, then he had nothing to worry about. Compared to being tied up among a group of ordinary people, the battlefield was more suitable for him.
"So, whoever wants to go can sign up, but the number of slots is limited, so decide for yourselves! Let me make it clear first! I will definitely go! I will take up one place! And Vera will take up one place!" MDR declared.
"Huh? You took up two places right away, so there are eight places left!" Upon hearing what MDR said, HK416 frowned and shouted. But as soon as she said this, she found that the situation was not quite what she imagined.
Not all dolls are actively looking forward to going on missions. Even UMP45 and UMP40 did not plan to take the initiative to jump out at this moment.
After all, they just made a lot of money from Griffin, and they will have a large surplus after paying off UMP40's debt. No one expected Renault to be so generous. Not only did he give them the money raised by DEFY, but he also deposited the fees paid by Griffin into their accounts.
"Oh my god! If this continues, I will really get rusty!" WA2000 took the lead and shouted with her hands raised. However, as soon as she said this, she found that a group of dolls were looking at her with surprised eyes, as if to say, "No, if you want to go, just go and sign up? What are you shouting here?"
"Uh? Um, where should I sign up?" Looking at the strange eyes of a group of dolls, WA2000 immediately asked MDR shyly.
"Where else can you go? You must go to the commander!" MDR pointed to the door, and a doll was already trotting out of the door to sign up.
"Huh!? Ah! Wait for me!" Looking at the figures who had gone a step ahead, WA2000, afraid that she would not be able to grab a place, hurriedly chased after them. Only after arriving at the workshop did WA2000 realize that running here in a hurry was completely unnecessary. There were not many dolls who came to Renault to sign up.
Commander Renault's dolls... are they too unwilling to work?
Looking at the dolls around her, WA2000 scratched her head in confusion.
"WA2000, why are you here?" P90 looked at WA2000 who was running over in a hurry with some surprise, wondering why she came over. Could it be that MDR said some nonsense again?
"Uh? What do you mean why am I here? Can't I sign up?"
"Of course, you can, but didn't the commander say that we can't carry weapons and equipment that are too large for this mission?"
Although WA2000's imprint weapon is not really big, to bring it, she would need a weapon box or something. Unlike her and MP5, who can find a large-sized piece of clothing to cover it directly.
"Uh..." WA2000 finally reacted after hearing what P90 said. She looked around and found that the dolls standing next to her were almost all the ones with imprint weapons that were easy to hide: pistol dolls and submachine gun dolls.
P90, MP5, Super-Shorty, M1911, UMP9, SOP2, who was trying to persuade Renault, and AR15, who was standing next to her and changing her barrel.
But if we count them, including her, it seems that the number of people is enough, right?
"Commander! Look, WA2000 wants to go too! I'm sure I can go too!" SOP2 even used WA2000 as an excuse, grabbing Renault's arm and shouting loudly.
Hearing this, Renault couldn't help but look at WA2000 with a headache.
"Well, Commander, is it really not possible?" WA2000, who had been idle for a long time, really didn't want to miss this good opportunity, because the next mission might take a long time.
Renault pulled his face helplessly, "Okay, let's go, anyway, you guys are here first."
As for the weapons, let's ask Cybermedia if they can solve it. Didn't Geralt say that Cybermedia is responsible for solving these small problems?
When he heard that Renault agreed, WA2000 couldn't help but wave her arms excitedly. SOP2 also immediately hugged UMP9.
Obviously, these two guys were together. AR15 probably just wanted to find an opportunity to try out her recent training results.
Chapter 146 Irritability
"Well, it's still a little long, but it's okay with a folding stock." SOP2 touched the imprint weapon with the folding stock and looked at the gun body with the short barrel and the silencer removed, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Watching SOP2 and MP5 put away their stocks, and then looking at M1911 who hung two guns directly under her armpits, WA2000 suddenly felt jealous. She looked at the guitar case in her hand and frowned helplessly.
Although SOP2 and AR15 only put the weapons with the stocks folded into the backpack, compared to the backpack, the guitar case is still a little too conspicuous.
"Well, don't be so nervous, the commander will definitely find a way." M1911 probably noticed WA2000's dissatisfaction with the guitar case, stepped forward, and patted her shoulder to comfort her.
"Alas, I hope Griffin's security measures are not too strict..." WA2000 sighed, but this could only be her own fantasy. It's not like she hasn't worked at Griffin before, such as security work at this kind of venue.
Although it is not necessary to search the visitors, it is certain that instruments and equipment will be used to detect whether the visitors are carrying weapons. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will be Griffin's full responsibility, and they will have to pay for it.
Besides, this is a military press conference; the security level is directly raised to the highest level, okay?
But this is also her own fault. Why didn't she hear the mission clearly when she came...
Wait!?
It seems that MDR didn't say the specific content of the mission at all!? That annoying guy! Why are MDRs everywhere the same!?
Thinking back to the instigator of all this, WA2000 couldn't help but grind her teeth in annoyance. If there is a chance, she must make MDR humiliated!
Hmm? Hmm?
WA2000, who just thought of this, suddenly came back to her senses in surprise. She now actually had the urge to beat up MDR, which was something she had never thought of before.
"Okay, stop grinding your teeth here. Compared to the mission, we still have some time to go out after docking. Do you want to buy anything?" WA2000's grinding sound was not small at all. P90 heard it clearly and also stepped forward to try to divert WA2000's attention.
Otherwise, if you perform the mission with emotion, you may really fail. This is her own personal experience in the training device.
"Huh? Want to buy something? Can we go out later?" As soon as P90 said this, WA2000 immediately looked at her with a blank look as if she had just learned about it.
"Um, I say, have you really read the messages in the communication network? Throw your original Zener communication protocol aside; it's all outdated." Seeing WA2000's confused expression, P90 immediately understood what was going on.
After such a long time, WA2000 still hasn't forgotten the Zener protocol she often uses. Although they can also use that communication protocol, the communication protocol integrated by their own commander is more useful. Under normal circumstances, there will be no external invasion at all, and it can also contact all dolls in the ship, including the Sangvis Ferri dolls, anytime and anywhere.
If there are any notifications or chats in normal times, most of them are in the new communication protocol.
No wonder this guy didn't know the requirement of "weapons are easy to carry" deliberately marked by Renault before he came.
Otherwise, how could M1 Garand or M14 be indifferent? And M1919 is not the type who is indifferent to the mission. She failed to complete several missions before, and now she is probably holding back a lot of anger.
It's a pity that she will be disappointed again this time. Sorry, M1919A4, you should stay at home and work on that mecha with G11 and Nagant Revolver.
"Uh, where are we heading?" WA2000 asked P90 while switching the communication protocol, scratching her head awkwardly.
"On the way to Port Wilhelm. We will pick up the client, or the person who needs to be escorted to the client, but they are still on the way. We will definitely arrive before them, so..."
"So while waiting to protect the target, we can get off the ship and move around freely?"
"Almost."
While the two were talking, the spaceship under the control of wz.29 had landed steadily on a private airport near Port Wilhelm. Well, Universal Anything owns it.
Apart from this place, Renault's spaceship has no other place to dock. There is no place to accommodate spaceships in the port here.
...
"Can't you drive faster? If you don't hurry up, you might miss it!" Looking at the ticking hands on the watch, Charlotte said to her brother in the driver's seat with some annoyance.
Although she was a little anxious about whether she could catch the boat, the main reason for her annoyance was her brother who was driving.
He really did something big without telling her!
When she was packing, she felt a little sorry when she saw her brother coming home, but after knowing that her brother was the person sent by the relevant department to take her to the boat, she couldn't suppress her annoyance at all!
Especially... the photographer she often cooperated with was replaced by the man sitting in the back seat!? Isn't that the senior who was always nagging in Wright's mouth!?
"Uh..." Facing his sister's unwarranted accusation, Wright looked at the pointer on the dashboard with some embarrassment. "This is already the highest speed. If it goes any faster, we might crash."
Although it did not reach the speed limit on the highway, the car he was driving had already reached its own speed limit. Unless the speedometer was removed, the pointer would definitely not fly out.
While speaking, Wright looked at his senior who was sitting in the back seat with a bunch of camera equipment. His senior had not been impatient at all so far. He sat in the back seat with his eyes closed and seemed not worried about being late at all.
Wright's repeated glances back through the rearview mirror were, of course, noticed by Charlotte, so she also saw the calm look of Wright's senior.
"Aren't you in a hurry?" For some reason, when she saw the other party's calm look, she felt a hint of anger in her heart.
"Don't worry, this ship is not an ordinary flight. It will definitely not leave the port before picking you up."
Although Charlotte didn't know the reason, he knew it very well, whether it was the ship they were going to take, the person behind the scenes, or the purpose of this unusual business trip.
Chapter 147: A Spaceship is Also a Ship
Won't leave? What does that mean? Didn't you say we were going to take a ship?
If we are to take a ship, we will definitely need to change to other means of transportation after they arrive. There are only a few days left before the press conference. Why is this guy not in a hurry?
Even though she was full of doubts, Charlotte had to calm down, staring at the speedometer and the watch on her wrist, constantly calculating the time it would take to travel.
She doesn't know if the headquarters has booked a place for her to stay locally. She heard that the environment there is still a bit messy. If there is no good place to stay...
Such complicated thoughts were quickly thrown aside by her.
Because the direction of the vehicle's movement did not seem to be heading to the port. Although the port and the sea could be seen here, Wright turned around and drove away from the port.
"Eh? Where are we going? Aren't we going to the port?" Charlotte stared, still not quite understanding what was going on. The station had told her they were going to take a boat, right?
"Uh, this..." Facing his sister's questioning, Wright was a little embarrassed.
Could he say that he didn't know? He was just a newcomer and had received orders to help send his sister and his predecessor to head to the rendezvous.
"Don't worry, you'll understand when we get there."
"Huh? Can't you explain it more clearly? Why are you still being evasive?!" Hearing the man in the back seat say this, Charlotte became even more annoyed. At this time, why are you still pretending to be a riddler?
But not long after, Wright, who was driving, had a look of sudden realization and a general understanding of what kind of 'ship' Charlotte was going to take. He had been here before when he was still an intern...
Although it was not the same private airport, he always felt that this time, it might be related to the spaceship he saw before.
In fact, it was true. Originally, Charlotte wanted to try harder, but after Wright drove the car around a corner and bypassed a warehouse, a huge ship parked at the private airport immediately made Charlotte forget the resentment in her heart.
"This is...!? Is this the spaceship that was reported before!?" The moment Charlotte saw this spaceship, she immediately recalled the spaceship that disappeared again soon after it appeared.
Of course, she knew why the spaceship had disappeared at that time. Someone must have deliberately covered it up. Otherwise, how could there be no news even in the ordinary chat section? Many people took photos of this ship at that time.
Charlotte was shocked by the spaceship. As the vehicle approached, she saw the pink rabbit on the hull and stiffened her mouth.
"This is the ship we are going to take this time." The man sitting in the back seat, calm and composed like a boss, couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he spoke. This ship was truly incredible.
Although the length of this ship is not long, only about 100 meters, it is not much bigger than the ships at sea, but the width and height of this ship are important. The width and height of more than 40 meters make this ship look like a square iron box. But such a thing that looks like it has no aerodynamics can actually fly in the sky?
And according to the information obtained at the time, the thickness of the armor plate of this ship can even be compared with those battleships in World War II. The heavy armor plate, coupled with the structure inside the ship, makes the weight of this ship far more than the weight of a normal ship. But even then, the big guy can fly abnormally in the sky, and it is said that the speed is very fast...
Just when Charlotte and the man in the back seat fell silent, Wright drove the car to the place and parked it in the parking lot near the terminal, where several figures were waiting.
...
"It seems that they have arrived." Mrs. Greven, who was standing next to the M200, turned her head and looked at the car coming in.
"Well, it should be them. The one in the co-pilot should be the escort target this time."
Hearing Renault's hard words, Mrs. Greven shook her head speechlessly, "Can't you say it more tactfully? A good little girl seems to have become a commodity to you."
While talking, the car stopped, and Wright in the car did not get out, but just raised his hand and greeted Mrs. Greven.
"You are? Mrs. Dora Greven?"
After getting out of the car, and seeing the figure standing next to Renault, Charlotte was also startled. She didn't expect to see the person she had just interviewed not long ago here.
"Haha, it's you, the little girl who keeps asking questions again. But this time it has nothing to do with me, and now is not the time to chat. You should get to know the captain of your trip. This is Renault, the boss of Renault Security Contracting Firm."
Mrs. Greven stepped aside and pointed at Renault, then pulled M200 aside to talk, "RFB, that kid, is not serious all day long. She didn't cause any trouble to Renault, right?"
"Well, no, she didn't cause any troubles, she's just a little lazy, and she also dragged several dolls to play games with her."
"Hahaha..."
The voices of the two people gradually faded away, and Charlotte also looked at the man named Renault in front of her with some vigilance. She had a feeling that the guy in front of her was definitely not a good person!
Also, it seemed that he was very familiar for some reason...
"Hello, I'm Charlotte. When can we set off?" Although the other party looked rough and difficult to get along with, Charlotte had no intention of chatting with Renault. She just reached out and shook hands with Renault, then asked.
"In an hour," Renault answered without hesitation.
They had been waiting here for nearly three hours. The dolls ran out to play as soon as they arrived. Now they were almost all back. Waiting for another hour was just to allow M200 to stay here for a while longer.
But after saying this, Renault turned his head and looked at the man who came out of the back seat.
"Hello, I'm Kevin, the photographer."
"Well, if there's nothing else, just go to the cargo hold at the stern. It's easier to go up there. Of course, you should drive up." The equipment in the back seat looked quite a lot. Compared with letting the dolls move it in little by little, Renault preferred to drive in and move things.
Chapter 148 Unprofessional?
"Hey, Wright, are you sure this Renault is the Renault we met before? I remember he didn't seem so fierce before?" While Wright's senior was carrying a lot of photographic equipment into the elevator, Charlotte quickly pulled Wright, who was carrying a suitcase.
To be honest, when Charlotte saw the exaggerated pink rabbit on the side of the hull, she had already recognized it, but the Renault he saw was wearing a black coat, and he looked very different from before.
When she first met Renault, that guy didn't give her this feeling...
"Well, although Mr. Renault was wearing a coat at that time, he was still in a T-shirt and slippers..."
Compared to the neatly dressed look now, he looks more than twice as serious. As he said this, Wright turned his head and looked at the elevator.
After confirming that his senior would not appear here in the short term, he worriedly told Charlotte, "In short, it's best not to let my senior know about our previous meeting with Mr. Renault."
Although he knew that if the review department knew what he said here, his next position would probably be permanently assigned as a driver, Wright felt that he had to say it. It was related to Charlotte's safety, and he couldn't take any chances.
"I know, I'm not stupid. I can't get used to your Stasi coffee."
"It's good to know, but this should only be temporary. After all, Mr. Renault's general situation is not a secret in Stasi. After this incident...
I'm afraid that a large number of people will focus on Renault. After all, this ship... is too easily noticed by those guys...
"Okay, it's not even time yet. Let's talk about it after we come back."
Although she still didn't know what kind of trouble would be waiting for her during this interview, she should take it one step at a time. Anyway... Mr. Renault and others are responsible for her protection this time, can she get into trouble?
While talking, Charlotte took her suitcase out of the car. It was not a big box, with only some simple clothes for changing.
"Okay, remember to stay safe." Seeing that Charlotte took his words to heart, Wright was relieved, waved his hand, and drove away directly.
"Huh, really..." Looking at the departing vehicle, Charlotte took a deep breath and then looked at the two sides of the cargo hold, the huge equipment covered with canvas.
Well... If you want to cover it, at least cover it tightly?
The side is covered tightly, but the big gun muzzle in the front is exposed!?
As she was complaining in her heart, she saw five Sangvis Ferri dolls dragging a bundle of canvas and walking slowly towards her. After smiling and greeting her, they leisurely brought a ladder and covered the muzzles of the two Jupiter cannons.
Did you just remember it now? What's the use now? I'm afraid that the guy named Kevin has already seen it?
Before she got out of the car, she noticed that Wright's senior, whose real name was not known but called Kevin, had been quietly looking at the layout of the interior of the spacecraft. The apron above the front of the cargo hold and the two Jupiter cannons did not escape his notice.
As for why she knew that it was a Jupiter cannon? Of course, she had seen the photos of the Jupiter cannon circulating on the Internet, which seemed to be posted by those Griffin employees. Although there is no shortage of entertainment content in this era, it just so happens that many people are indeed paying attention to the battle between Griffin and Sangvis Ferri. Although most of the people who pay attention to the situation of Griffin and Sangvis Ferri have nothing to do with that restless area, they can't help but get some attention!
Whether it is interesting things inside Griffin or the actual situation of fighting with Sangvis Ferri, these true and fake information that even Griffin himself can't tell clearly can always attract the attention of some people on the Internet.
And her interview this time was to broadcast the press conference of the military and Griffin about the joint exercise.
Otherwise, Kevin wouldn't carry so much equipment. If it was just a simple interview, one camera would be enough. Why would he need to bring so much?
Besides, this time it was not the photographer who often cooperated with the station, but Wright's side... She doesn't know what Stasi's people wanted to do with her...
Don't go to someone else's territory to make trouble and end up involving her.
"Oh?" Charlotte, who was thinking about something, had just walked out of the elevator and felt a soft little thing hit her leg.
Looking down, she found a small kitten lying on the ground with its legs spread out. It looked confused, and it was obvious that it was disoriented.
"Where did you come from, little guy? So naughty? Where are you going in such a hurry?" Reaching out and picking up the little guy, Charlotte looked around. There was no one else, only two Rippers with mops chatting.
"Miss Charlotte, this way."
Seeing the two Rippers, Charlotte did not connect them with the Rippers made by the Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing. Just when she wanted to go forward to ask for directions, a voice suddenly sounded from not far away.
A human figure with silver-white hair was standing at the place she had just glanced at, smiling and waving at her.
Uh? Shouldn't there be no one there just now?
"Oh, you are?"
"SpectreM4, the commander asked me to come over and escort you. After all, the space in the ship is not small. It would be bad if you got lost like that guy named Kevin." SpectreM4 shrugged her shoulders. Although she said so, she also knew that it was just a joke.
Compared to the guy who looked like an agent, Charlotte was obviously not someone who came here for reconnaissance, not to mention that Charlotte had been here before.
"Is that so? Then... where is that guy named Kevin now? Did he break the equipment?"
"No, no, but you'd better go over and take a look, lest the MDR guy move around casually and really break something." After Renault called the guy who called himself Kevin away, MDR and Vera took over all the equipment.
Obviously, these two guys were more interested in the interview than the escort mission.
"MDR? It seems like she is the doll that likes to use a keypad phone, right?"
"Yes, it's her. The other Vera is a news doll, and her original occupation was also a reporter." After saying this, SpectreM4 looked at Charlotte. As expected, Miss Charlotte looked more professional than both MDR and Vera.
Just standing here, she had the demeanor of an upright reporter.
Chapter 149: That's Not My Business
"Agent K, the spacecraft will reach its destination in about three hours after takeoff. During this time, you'd better wait in the lounge for a while; otherwise, you may be hit by the little guys running around on the ship."
Leading K, who wanted to sneak into the bridge, to the door of the lounge, Renault raised his hand and pointed at the Hydra that was pacing and approaching at the other end of the corridor.
K, who originally wanted to take advantage of Renault's inattention to enter the bridge of the spacecraft to collect some intelligence, couldn't help but be embarrasssed on his stern face. Although he had just heard the sound of a large object approaching, he didn't expect...
He didn't expect Renault to let the Hydra wander around in the corridor...
Wait? It doesn't seem to be wandering around? There seems to be something hanging on the Hydra?
Because it has no hands and its limbs need to be lifted and lowered when moving, the barrel of the large-caliber machine gun on the Hydra fuselage has become a hook for hanging things. A large net bag was hanging on the barrel at this time, filled with various meats that had been cut and cleaned.
"Hmm? Has it learned to help move things? Has this little guy become smart recently?" Renault raised his eyebrows at the Hydra.
Whether it was the Sangvis Ferri Manticore or the Hydra, when they were just brought back, they basically had no independent ability, just like the Dinergates that had just appeared. He didn't expect that they could now help Alchemist and MG3 move things?
Renault was still very pleased about this. At least they can still play a role, which is much better than those Dinergates that were brought up like pets.
Twitching the corners of his mouth, K looked at Renault, who didn't care, a little stiffly, and his judgment of Renault's danger level in his heart increased by several dozen percentage points.
So the military's Hydra, in your mouth, is just a "little guy" who can help move things?
Shaking his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, K followed Renault into the lounge, but Renault obviously didn't mean to say anything more to him. After telling him that there were drinks and food in the refrigerator that he could take at any time, he waved his hand and left the lounge.
Seeing Renault leaving, K wanted to sigh, but he then heard the sound of dense keystrokes coming from behind the sofa.
Looking sideways, he found that there were two dolls sitting cross-legged behind the sofa, each holding a game console in their hands and pressing them non-stop.
RFB? And, isn't that also the Ouroboros made by Sangvis Ferri?
Hiss!
Just thinking that he had better not alarm these two dolls who were addicted to games, especially the Sangvis Ferri Ouroboros, K felt a hard object hit his bone hard.
He turned his head suddenly but found that what hit his calf was not something else but the swarms of Dinergates he had just seen in the corridor. Of course, there were not a swarm of Dinergates in front of him, only two, but the two Dinergates were ready to ram into him, as if they were going to drive him off the sofa.
"You've taken up two of their places. Just give them the cushion you're sitting on."
Just before K figured out the situation, RFB suddenly spoke.
K, who heard this, could only stand up and make way for the other side. The two Dinergates then dragged the cushion off the sofa with satisfaction. The two Dinergates sat down side by side on the spot, and one of them even skillfully pulled out a remote control from under the sofa...
TV remote control... Do these two Dinergates want to watch TV...?
Seeing this scene, K's eyebrows couldn't help but frown.
What is this? Do Dinergates also want to watch TV? When did Dinergates have this function? Is it an upgrade made by Sangvis Ferri?
But what's the point?
K couldn't figure it out, so he stopped worrying. Although Renault didn't say much just now, it was obvious that he couldn't go out in this situation.
Although he didn't know how the other party knew his identity, he pointed out his identity directly and asked him to stay here and wait, obviously not wanting him to run around the ship and look around.
Keep it secret?
...
Just when K was annoyed that Renault had sent people to watch him closely, Charlotte followed SpectreM4 around the ship, put the suitcase together with the equipment brought, and asked SpectreM4 to take her to the winemaking workshop on the ship.
Unfortunately, Simonov and others were already drunk and had no time to entertain her.
But Charlotte didn't come here for entertainment; she just wanted to find a bottle of wine here.
There was no wine in the restaurant, at most there were only some table wine and some cooking wine.
"The atmosphere here is really... uh, free." After a round on the ship, Charlotte said with emotion.
When she first came here, she didn't see too many dolls on the ship. Now, this time, she also had a general understanding of the doll ecology on Renault's ship for the first time.
In short... it was a little different from what she imagined. She had thought that the atmosphere in the spaceship of the security contractor would be more serious.
As a result... now it seems that this place is just like an ordinary, uh, nursery?
The sound of dolls fighting can be heard everywhere. The only place that is relatively quiet is the corner in the restaurant that looks like a cafe.
"Well, it's like this when there is no mission, and our commander rarely receives commissions. They will be serious when they are on a mission."
Why do I always feel that this statement seems to be not very convincing... Charlotte muttered in her heart.
When she returned to the restaurant, Renault was already sitting there waiting for her, and there were several dolls around him.
Looking at SOP2 and P90 standing next to Renault, Charlotte was a little surprised. Are they waiting for her?
"Um, Mr. Renault, where is Mr. Kevin?" She looked around but didn't see Wright's senior.
"Don't worry about him. Our mission this time is to protect you during your interview. That guy can't be counted in the commission." Although the commission requirement issued by Cyber Media is to protect the personal safety of the crew throughout the process, Renault doesn't think that the agent from the Stasi can't guarantee his own safety.
Although the guy's mission target is probably not the condition of his spacecraft, just based on the trick of inserting an agent here, Renault can still talk to him in a good tone, at least he won't throw him until the destination.
"Let's get to know each other. The few dolls here are the operation personnel this time. It will be easier to do things after getting to know each other." As he said, Renault raised his hand and pointed at the P90s.
Chapter 150: Forgot to Overhaul?
"What happened to Persica?" M16, who had just finished her meal in the cafeteria and was heading back to her dormitory to dig out some stock for a good drink, saw Persica sitting in the laboratory, looking burnt out, before she even reached the dormitory.
"Uh, hush! Keep your voice down. Something seems to have gone wrong with her research. It looks like something is missing from the file," RO635, who was holding a bag of snacks and about to watch TV, whispered to M16.
Hearing RO635's words, M16 immediately understood that she had to be careful not to be caught by Persica. Now was a rare vacation time, and she couldn't risk being pulled into any dangerous tasks due to Persica's whim.
Although this idea might be a bit unfair to Persica, they really wanted to take this opportunity to rest.
After walking away from the door of Persica's laboratory, M16 asked RO635 about M4's situation.
"By the way, where is M4? I haven't seen her since noon."
"Well, she saw AR15 and SOP2 all changed into new bodies, so she's feeling a little down. She should be with Commander Gentiane to help and relax."
"Well, how can helping Commander Gentiane be called relaxation..." Shaking her head, M16 waved to RO, "I have to go back for a drink. Call me if you need anything."
Previously, Gentiane led her own dolls to attack the Sangvis Ferri, but did not provoke a counterattack from them. Moreover, those Sangvis Ferri units, possibly having received some information, unexpectedly retreated farther from the Griffin base.
So now, in Gentiane's base, most of the dolls are on shift rotation. However, the AR Team did not take turns to rest due to their special nature. They were completely on holiday. M4 probably felt a little guilty since they didn't engage in any actual combat during the previous mission.
"M4, I really don't need help here. If there's anything, let Kalina do it. After all, we can't let that guy get paid for nothing."
"Huh? But..."
"Okay, okay, I just hit my head. It's nothing. I will be alive and kicking when I return to headquarters in two days. Go back and rest."
"Hit... But you didn't..." How could it be a hit on the head? Didn't she hear Kalina say that Gentiane's skull was almost penetrated by shrapnel this time?
"No! There is absolutely no serious injury! Impossible! It doesn't exist! Go and rest! I just need to confirm the specific procedures of the operation with Agent Helian later."
Gentiane, who finally pulled M4 out of the combat command room, raised her hand to wipe the sweat and scratched the bandage on her head awkwardly.
To be honest, the wound on her head no longer hurts. It's not that the wound has worsened. Gentiane herself estimated that the wound should have healed, and the scalp under the bandage is just a little itchy.
Before returning to headquarters, she must find a way to visit the barber shop. At least she can't go out with a weird hairstyle. Otherwise, Griffin's reputation will be damaged for no reason, and she will really be deducted from her salary.
...
"There's still an hour to get there? Isn't that too fast? Wait, why is the scene outside the window blurry?" While Gentiane was having a headache about her hairstyle, Charlotte was very comfortable.
Renault's spaceship had almost all kinds of drinks, and they tasted great. Most importantly, there was a group of dolls to chat with, and you could even pet cats!
Is this heaven?
Fortunately, Charlotte is the top reporter at the station and did not melt directly into this comfortable environment. Instead, she asked Vera about their arrival time.
After learning from Vera that they would reach their destination in about an hour, Charlotte stood up from the sofa in shock and leaned over to the porthole to look out.
She tried to confirm with her naked eyes how fast the spaceship was now.
"It's nothing, it's just ordinary cruising speed, not fast. When we went to Port William, it only took a little over an hour." MDR looked up at Charlotte lying on the porthole, then lowered her head to continue fiddling with the camera equipment.
Renault had told them before that the man who called himself Kevin who carried this equipment up was actually an agent. In the absence of certainty about what the other party would do after arriving at the destination, the subsequent filming work would most likely be done by MDR and Vera.
Anyway, Renault does not intend to place an agent next to his target, even if that guy's purpose is also to protect Charlotte.
"Is that so? But the outside of this window looks..."
Charlotte, who was still a little curious about why the scene outside the window was blurry, subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to touch the porthole under the influence of alcohol.
But Vera, who came to her senses, quickly pulled her back, "Ahem, this is just a small problem, forget about touching it, the window next to it is normal."
While pulling Charlotte back, Vera pointed to the window. The blurry scenery was, of course, because there was a layer of oil on the window! You could even see the handprints!
And Charlotte seemed to be a little drunk, her steps unsteady.
If she had known, she would not have let her drink wine casually just now!
MDR seemed to have seen Vera's worry and waved her hand indifferently, "Hey, it's okay, there are still a few days before the press conference officially starts. It doesn't matter if you're drunk. Come and help me see how to use this?"
After seeing the clouds outside from another porthole, Charlotte felt a little dizzy and hurriedly took two steps to return to the sofa.
However, when she was still one meter away from the sofa, there was a sudden vibration under her feet, which made Charlotte, who was already a little unstable, sit down directly on the ground.
"What's going on!?"
Not to mention Charlotte with misty eyes, MDR jumped up vigilantly. The spacecraft had never experienced this degree of vibration since it took off!
Could it be that there is something wrong with the spacecraft engine? The spacecraft had been flying in the sky for days without landing. Could it be that Renault had not repaired the engine for several months, so the spacecraft now had a problem?
"Ah, sorry, everyone, there is no problem, please don't panic, it's just an anti-aircraft missile that hit the tail thruster." As if hearing MDR's question, wz.29's answer soon sounded from the broadcast inside the spacecraft.
