Chapter 11 It's convenient to escape here

"Oh, our attack failed to penetrate the enemy's armor, well, to be precise, it should be the Force Shield?" In the gradually dissipating smoke, a bright yellow Force Shield gradually appeared in the sight of C96 and Type 80.

C96 raised her eyebrows and smacked her lips.

"Don't joke around, now is not the time to be boring, use your brain to think about how to get rid of this guy, I guess the military has more than one back-up here."

Type 80's face also sank, frowning and looking at the Force Shield erected in front of the Minotaurus.

"Yes, but this guy doesn't seem to carry any other weapons except the launcher on his shoulder. Even if it's the military, they shouldn't use that thing in a place like this, right?"

Although she said so, C96 was ready to dodge the opponent's attack at any time.

Just as the voice fell, the two saw the launcher port on the Minotaurus's shoulder suddenly opened!

Seeing this scene, Type 80's eyelids also jumped. It seems that they have overestimated the bottom line of the military.

Yes, even they dared to use machine guns and RPGs in this urban area. How could the military be merciful?

If the military really had concerns, the Cyclops would not have fought with the militants in the civilian area before!

Swish!

It's a long story, but in fact it's just two sentences. As soon as the two finished speaking, a series of rocket booster sounds suddenly sounded from the launcher on the Minotaurus's shoulder!

Four missiles flew directly towards Type 80 and C96!

Seeing these missiles coming straight to her face, Type 80 frowned, "Get out of the way!"

"Tsk!" Hearing Type 80's shout, C96 did not move, but raised the machine gun in her hand without hesitation and shot at the missiles that were coming straight!

Da da da da!

"C96!?" What on earth are you thinking! ? Machine guns shooting doqn missiles! This is not a movie! Type 80, who had already jumped aside, was immediately furious. She had never expected that C96 would do such a thing that went against her normal thinking!

Boom! Boom!

However, C96's reckless behavior was not without success. At least, in less than a second, C96 blew up two missiles that were heading straight for her!

But there were still two missiles that directly hit C96's power armor!

Boom!

"C96!? Damn it!" Seeing the violent explosion caused by the two missiles, Type 80 was immediately annoyed. She was about to rush forward, go around the clumsy Minotaurus, and attack it from behind.

"Wait! Type 80! Come back! Don't forget what we are doing here!"

Just as Type 80 stepped forward, the voice of C96 suddenly rang out. The main purpose of their waiting here was to protect Helian and Kryuger, not to defeat the military here.

After hearing what C96 said, Type 80 came back to ger senses immediately. After looking at the position where C96 was standing at this time, her mind came back to her senses as if it was a bolt from the blue!

No wonder, no wonder C96 didn't dodge just now!

Those missiles... were not meant to attack them at all! ?

Although C96's power armor was damaged for the first time after taking two missiles, only the RPG on the right shoulder was damaged, and there was an inconspicuous dent on the power armor shell.

The opponent's purpose was to go to Helian and Kryuger who were in the sewer from the beginning!

Those militants just now! They must have leaked the exact location of Helian and Kryuger!

"Let's retreat! Take them both with you!" C96 shouted as she raised her gun and aimed at the weapon on the Minotaurus's arm. That position, if nothing unexpected happened, should be one of the Minotaurus's weak points.

Although that place looked easy to be destroyed, the driver of the Minotaurus was not a fool. When he saw C96 pointing the machine gun at him, he raised his arms and propped up the arm shield and the Force Shield on his arm again.

The thick arm shield and the Force Shield generator on the arm, after unfolding the defensive form, directly blocked the weak area on itself!

But this is C96's purpose. As long as the opponent stops and starts to defend, her purpose is achieved. Aiming at the weak position on the opponent's body and firing, it is just to delay the opponent's action a little bit!

Type 80, who has already discussed the action plan in the communication protocol, also jumped into the sewer without hesitation!

"Mr. Kryuger, Agent Helian, sorry, the situation is urgent, sorry!" As soon as Type 80 landed, she rushed directly towards the two people who were on guard.

As she said this, she opened her hands and grabbed the two people one by one and clamped them under its armpits!

Then she took a step forward and rushed in the direction where the militants came from before!

After feeling that Type 80 had succeeded, C96 did not hesitate, pulled the trigger in her hand, and retreated towards the pit of the sewer.

Oops!

Seeing the actions of Type 80 and C96, the Minotaurus's driver suddenly jumped in his heart!

"Cunning rat!"

The Minotaurus driver, who had been silent before, finally yelled angrily at this time, and at the same time controlled the body to rush towards C96!

However, C96 was at the edge of the pit. Before the Minotaurus rushed forward two or three steps, she had already jumped down with her back to the pit!

She was in mid-air, and even had the mind to wave at the Minotaurus.

Bang, bang, bang!

Seeing this, the Minotaurus no longer maintained its arm shield, put down his arm shield and ran two steps faster, rushing to a position several meters away from the pit. He looked down, but could not see any shadow of the power armor at all.

It was not that he didn't want to get closer, but the Minotaurus's body was heavy. If he approached the pit of the sewer rashly, he might collapse the road surface directly.

In addition, the sewer passage was not wide, and the Minotaurus's body was relatively wide. If he fell down, he might even fall into a dilemma.

In addition, the height of the road surface from the bottom of the sewer was more than ten meters, nearly twenty meters. The Minotaurus's foot structure did not support it from landing at such a height. Once the balance device of the foot was broken, he would have no choice but to be a target!

"Damn it! Command, the rats have escaped, they are still in the sewer."

"Received, you go to the southern isolation wall now, assist the troops over there to annihilate the rats that slipped in."

"Understood."

After hearing the order, the Minotaurus immediately turned around and ran to another street. As for the mission target in the sewer?

There were already people waiting for those slippery little rats over there, so there was no need for him to fight with the two mission targets here.

...

"Awake?" Looking at Gentiane who was rubbing her forehead and walking over, Renault asked.

"Ah, probably, what's the situation now?" Gentiane looked around, but it was a pity that it was pitch black around and she couldn't see anything clearly.

If there were extra night vision goggles in the base, or if there was electricity in the base, it would be great to make the combat command system work. In that case, it wouldn't be as dark as it is now.

"It can't be considered good, those guys are almost unable to bear it." Renault also curled his lips at this time. The situation here is really not good.

Although the fact that the spaceship had left the area was concealed by the night, the military should have brought some combat units that could resist the attack of the Jupiter cannon. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be their heavy troops.

With the heavy troops on the side, the military guys have begun to move. In more than ten minutes, they have advanced their combat units several kilometers.

And they haven't stopped yet. If those guys are still not bombarded by the Jupiter cannon after entering the ten-kilometer range around the base, then I'm afraid that no matter how stupid the commander of the military is, he can guess that the spaceship is no longer here?

Hmm? Is that so?

Hearing Renault's words, Gentiane's face also became heavy, but she was still a little curious about how Renault knew it.

After all, she had heard that the spaceship was not above their heads. She was really curious about how Renault got the movements of the military.

But this is obviously not something she must know now. Instead of exploring the mystery of Renault, she still has to focus on how to resist the military attack.

As for evacuating to the nearest city right now... It's not that she is not mean enough and has never thought of this idea, but there is a wall around the city. She brought a group of Griffin dolls, all of whom were armed with guns. The city manager might not open the gate at all.

Even if the city not far away had signed a defense contract with Griffin, it would be the same.

In the final analysis, the city manager and Griffin are just in a cooperative relationship. One side pays money, and the other side provides people to maintain the security around the city. The commission in the middle has to pass through the upper level.

And now Griffin has obviously offended the military. Compared with the powerful military, Griffin, who seems to have no support, is obviously softer and easier to pinch.

If the city manager is asked to choose between the military and Griffin, he will definitely choose the military. After all, Griffin is just a security contractor who uses a large number of tactical dolls. Military is not a character that can be offended.

Therefore, evacuating to the city is not realistic. In addition, there is no supply and support in a short time. The only forces that Gentiane can mobilize at this time are the tactical dolls with their own imprint weapons.

It is impossible to resist the military's offensive with only these tactical dolls who still hold a large number of old weapons before the Third World War!

Didn't you see that the Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing, a military-industrial enterprise, was beaten terribly by the firepower of the military's heavy-armored troops?

"By the way, how are the Sangvis who failed to break through the military blockade before?"

"Well? Do you still care about them? Their situation is much better than yours now. At least, they have heavy firepower in their hands."

Although there are only some remaining Manticore and Neume, the particle weapons used by other Sangvis Ferri units have a certain penetration power on the armor of the military dolls.

At this time, the Sangvis Ferri troops under Mastermind, except for the serious loss of personnel, are much better than Gentiane's current situation.

"Well, okay, I'll go check the defense line set up by the dolls..." Hearing what Renault said, Gentiane was speechless. After all, what he said was mostly true. The combat effectiveness of the tactical dolls under her command without the dummy dolls was indeed a bit poor.

Renault shrugged his shoulders. To be honest, he didn't think Gentiane could organize any effective defense line. You have to know that this base is almost empty. The only ones are probably those places in the base that can be used as shelters.

It's a pity that there are so few defendable places that are not enough for the dolls to build an effective defense position.

Instead of thinking about relying on dolls to block the military dolls, it is better to think about how to fool... or persuade the Sangvis Ferri Mainframe to resist the military's attack with them.

At least, the remaining Manticores and Nemuen can take on a large part of the defense task.

The premise is that the military did not directly use heavy troops to bombard the Griffin base...

"Commander, isn't it too dangerous for Vera to stay here? Let her stay with Commander Gentia later."

As a news doll, although MDR admitted that Vera must be good at escaping, the current situation is that there is no way to escape.

"Of course, she is not a combatant, and her combat effectiveness may not be as good as the logistics officer under Gentia." Vera, who has not changed her body, can't be called a combat force.

And she herself has no imprint weapons, and she can't even pick up a gun to assist in defense like other tactical dolls.

She can help MDR control the drone, and at least she can get a glimpse of the military's movements.

Rather than letting a novice stand behind him with a gun, Renault thinks it is more appropriate to let Vera put down the gun and specialize in collecting intelligence.

Otherwise, Renault always feels that the weapon in the other party's hand will be like the Sten MK2, and suddenly go off for no reason.

Not far away, M16, who was watching AR15 and her companions carrying a lot of stones and stacking them up to serve as a shelter, also roughly saw what Renault and his men were planning.

Were they planning to serve as the first line of defense for the base?

Did they even plan to retreat to the relatively solid Griffin base?

"Hmm? Don't look at me like that. You know, it's safest for us to be outside. After all, it's convenient to run away when we stay outside the base." Seeing M16's gaze, AR15 immediately raised her eyebrows and said.

"Uh...when did you make this kind of jokes..." M16 smiled helplessly.

Chapter 12: Very Safe

"Well, it's not a joke. After all, I'm not sure if the commander's spaceship can bring back Helian and the old man from Griffin on time. If the military doesn't launch a ground attack later but instead uses heavy troops to bombard this place, we may have to leave first."

"Ah, this..." When AR15 said this, M16 was truly stunned. She hadn't expected that AR15's earlier words weren't a joke; she was really ready to run away!

But soon, M16 realized that running away was indeed the right choice for Renault and the others. After all, Griffin's dolls couldn't escape even if they wanted to.

Instead of staying here and being annihilated, it's better to rush out as soon as possible and find a way to stop the military's actions, or reunite with Renault's spaceship.

Although the power was out in Griffin's base, there were serious human defense facilities on the bottom floor. This base was originally built on an air-raid shelter from World War III. The bottom floor is a civil defense facility from World War III, and the building above was constructed by Griffin.

Therefore, even if the military bombards Griffin's base, as long as all the dolls hide in the lower floor of the base, there won't be any major problems in the short term.

As long as they can hold on for about an hour, the situation...may change. Maybe Renault's spaceship will return on time, or perhaps Griffin's top management will have found another way.

However, the former is more likely, and the latter...to be honest, M16 doesn't think those guys will go out of their way for the dolls in the base at this time. Ordinary tactical dolls are probably just seen as consumables used to replace humans...

Well, Commander Gentiane doesn't count; she's not normal at all.

But the problem now is that the remaining three people in their AR team are still here.

Although only she and RO635 are in the base, at present, I'm afraid that Griffin's top management doesn't know that M4 has been taken to Renault's spaceship.

If the people at Griffin still believe that M4 is in this base, they may indeed make some effort to get M4 out, but I'm afraid that's the limit. Compared to M4, a special creation among tactical dolls, the other dolls... it's better not to talk about it...

Just when M16's mind was about to overheat, AR15 nudged M16 with her elbow. "What are you thinking about? You should go down. RO is calling you."

M16 turned around and saw RO635 standing at the entrance of the base, waving at her.

"Okay, then I'll go down first. Uh... If the situation isn't good..."

"Yeah, I'll be the first to run away." Seeing M16's hesitation, AR15 couldn't help but find it a little funny. It seemed like the first time she had seen M16 showing such an expression in front of her. "Huh, anyway, be careful."

"Understood."

After M16 and the last few of Griffin's dolls retreated to the base, AR15 walked over to Renault, who was sitting on an empty supply box, checking the weapons he had picked up.

"Commander, the military's heavy troops are probably in place now, and there are at least two mixed battalion-level battle groups. With this number, even if the spacecraft arrives in time..." AR15 frowned. With this number of enemies...

With just the Jupiter cannon on the spacecraft, it is absolutely impossible to do anything to the enemy.

The number of military dolls that blocked Griffin's way before, in the final analysis, was only the size of a company.

Well, a company of humans, and each soldier or squad of soldiers commanded several or dozens of different types of military dolls.

If those dolls and the number of autonomous combat units are included, there are about five to six hundred. In other words, the number of military dolls surrounding Griffin Base from a distance is already in the thousands or even close to tens of thousands, and this does not include the heavy-armored troops carrying heavy firepower.

"When the spaceship comes back, there is no need to worry about those dolls, and the same goes for the heavy-armored troops. The only thing to worry about is the human soldiers who fight with the military dolls."

The Jupiter cannon cannot deal with those military dolls, but the spaceship does not only have the Jupiter cannon.

Renault used the communication repeater on the spaceship to paralyze the military's communication system for a short period of time before, and this time he can do the same.

If Griffin cannot wait for the military to cease fire or for Staresec to mediate, then he can only let all of Griffin's dolls squeeze onto the ship and escape with them.

However, because Gentiane and Griffin are still under contract, it is obviously unrealistic to kidnap so many dolls. If he's lucky, he might be able to take three or five; that's probably the limit. Well, if he's unlucky, he might not be able to keep any of them.

But in the end, staying here is just a matter of course. After all, if Griffin fails to offer a reward of sufficient value, he can take the opportunity to supplement his manpower.

Well, yes, although the living area of the spaceship is full, this does not conflict with his purpose of supplementing manpower, right?

His spaceship needs to be expanded or rebuilt. Moreover, the weapons used by the dolls now seem to be a bit out of date, whether it's the Jupiter cannon on the spaceship, the cannons on the gunboat, or even the weapons in the hands of the dolls.

He had this feeling when he encountered the large ELID-infected body in the black zone. Although he took down the big guy without much difficulty at that time, it was too laborious and inefficient.

It’s just that the mission in the black zone has only been ongoing for so long, and there is no urgent need for weapon replacement at home, so he hasn't been in a hurry. But now it's different. The military has introduced new protective equipment, the force shield, and the number of military armored units has significantly increased. All of them are wearing heavy armor. The weapons with an average age of hundreds of years in the hands of the T-Dolls are really not enough to deal with these guys.

Simply replacing the key structural materials of the weapons and increasing the charge of ammunition—this simple strengthening method is no longer suitable for the current situation.

Back to the present, after hearing what Renault said, AR15 frowned, thought about it, and immediately remembered the last time they raided the military test team.

In the end, Renault seemed to have used some means to directly cut off the communication signal of an entire area. If that technique proves useful this time... then maybe, instead of the military's heavy troops bombarding Griffin's base, we might see military dolls malfunctioning and firing at their own personnel.

Seeing the sudden relaxation on AR15's face, Renault raised his eyebrows and then poured cold water on AR15's hopes.

"Don't get your hopes up; there's no real easy solution. The military and Griffin have never been on the same side. The military dolls must have certain countermeasures."

The most intuitive, simple, and effective way is to directly melt the cores of those rebellious dolls.

Moreover, the automaron capability of military dolls is not as good as that of ordinary civilian dolls. Even if a wrong attack signal is issued through the communication system, it's highly likely that the order will be refused due to conflicts with some base protocols set by the military dolls.

"Uh, Commander, can't you crack it?" Hearing what Renault said, AR15 still asked, unwilling to give up.

"Come on, there are so many military dolls. I'm not a donkey in a programming team that can crack them one by one."

As for using a virus specifically targeting the doll protocol like the military and Sangvis Ferri?

He had never considered it. It sounded like a troublesome task. If it wasn't done well, it could delete all the bass protocols of the dolls on a large scale and might even cause a certain degree of doll crisis.

One by one?

AR15's face suddenly scrunched up when she heard it. Obviously, Renault was no fool, so he must have thought about spreading rewriting programs or invading programs on a large scale. There must be something she hadn't anticipated...

However, before AR15 could figure it out, the sound of military dolls gathering and moving forward could be heard in the wasteland in the distance. These military Cyclops were not slow in their movements. At least compared to human soldiers, their speed was much faster, even though most of those human soldiers were wearing power-assisted exoskeletons. With the help of exoskeletons, the running speed of human soldiers now far exceeds the limit speed of normal humans.

But even so, human soldiers still cannot beat the military Cyclops and the extended models of Cyclops.

Because the limit speed of humans can only be maintained for a few seconds, but dolls are different. As long as they have enough energy, they can run indefinitely.

With the combination of the two, the speed of these military dolls is almost comparable to driving a car, about 60 to 70 kilometers per hour.

In addition, dolls are bipedal, so some potholes on the terrain make little difference to them.

"At this speed, they'll be able to reach our position in another seven or eight minutes."

For AR15 and the others, these Cyclops rushing ahead are not a difficult enemy, and their numbers aren't large. It appears that the enemy is just testing whether Renault's spacecraft will be eager to attack.

Anyway, they are just some Cyclops. For the military, it's no big deal. It's okay if they get bombarded. At most, they'll think of other ways. If there is no bombardment, then it's too late. The army will directly attack; there's no need for bombardment.

"Well, let's stop chatting and prepare for battle." Raising his hand and throwing a sniper rifle to AR15, Renault took the weapon in his hand and moved to the back of the bunker. He waited for the Cyclops to enter the range and opened fire immediately.

...

"Hey, Type 80, switch places." C96 took a big step and caught up with Type 80, who was running with two people in tow.

"Hey." Hearing C96's words, Type 80 raised her hand without hesitation, grabbed Helian, and threw her to C96 while still running.

"Huh!?" Helian, who was already dizzy from Type 80's uncomfortable carrying, felt even dizzier at this point!

However, soon, Helian felt someone grab her by the back of her collar, and then she was hoisted and thrown onto the shoulder of the power armor.

"Hiss!" Helian gasped as she came to her senses... At the same time, she nearly choked from the stench and, with the dizziness not yet gone, quickly reached out and grabbed C96's helmet.

"Whoa! Agent Helian! Let go! I can't see ahead!"

Helian's bear hug completely blocked C96's vision. Fortunately, the sewer's road conditions were simple; otherwise, C96, who was running, might have thrown Helian off her shoulder.

Type 80, who was running in front, looked back at C96, who had finally made Helian release one of her hands. "What should we do now? This passage must lead to a place farther away from the isolation wall, and we aren't on the surface. SPAS-12 and the others may not be able to find us."

"No, no, I didn't say we have to go all the way to the end. We'll stop at the next exit, then go back to the surface!" With Helian's positioning and the two of us together, SPAS-12 and the others will definitely see us.

"But... if we do that, won't we be discovered by the military's dolls? You just saw that even those human armed personnel have started helping the military find our whereabouts, and their safety is also a concern; stray bullets don't have eyes."

"Don't worry! I've thought of a good solution!" C96 said, pointing to the ammunition box still on his back.

After the battle, the remaining ammunition in C96's box had been emptied by half, and the empty space was just enough for Helian to hide in. "Come on, although it's a bit cramped, the protection this thing offers is still reliable. At least ordinary bullets can't penetrate it."

"Uh... inside... it looks like a coffin..." Helian hesitated at first, staring at the ammunition box's tight interior space, reluctant to squeeze herself in...

Kryuger, who was also feeling nauseous, turned pale. It was bad enough to treat customers rudely, but now they actually wanted to stuff them into an ammunition box...

Chapter 13: Let's Borrow It for a While

"Hey, see the situation now? It's not bad to run for your life," C96 said, holding up the ammunition box so Helian could see how spacious it was inside.

Whether she agreed with C96's words or had to accept her fate, Helian looked at the situation inside the ammunition box, gritted her teeth, and jumped in directly.

Although Helian was not particularly short, the ammunition box was quite large. It was more than one meter high, and the ammunition inside had been consumed with only a small amount left. With the remaining empty space, she could hide herself completely in the ammunition box by squatting down.

Seeing Helian squatting in the ammunition box, putting on her helmet again, and quickly donning a set of "full-body" protection, Kryuger grinned and looked up at Type 80 that was holding him.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to get into the ammunition box, now was not the time to worry about this. Unfortunately, although Kryuger overcame his psychological barrier, Type 80 clearly did not intend to let Kryuger enter the ammunition box on her back.

"Sorry, Mr. Kryuger, the ammunition box here is not the same as the one on C96. This box is full of feeding mechanisms. Unless all the bullets are used up, you can't get in at all."

Hearing this, Kryuger's face suddenly darkened. He took a closer look at the ammunition box behind Type 80 and found that it was indeed divided into two parts: a large ammunition box on top and a small one on the bottom.

Clearly, these two ammunition boxes served different purposes. The large one was used to feed the machine gun on Type 80's shoulder, and the small one was likely for additional machine gun bullets.

"Sorry, I'll let you in after Type 80's shells are used up. After all, Type 80 machine gun is the only weapon we have that works well."

Although it couldn't penetrate the Minotaurus's shield and armor plate, it should still be effective if we find a way to use it properly.

Hearing this, Kryuger almost cried. Being older, he wished the younger ones could understand his feelings better. Could they not be a bit more tactful?

And... run out of shells? Are you kidding? The situation is so critical that the power armor might use up all the machine gun shells. Wouldn't his mortal body be completely turned to ashes if touched even slightly?

Although he hadn't seen C96 being attacked directly just now, he had clearly seen the explosions and changes to C96's power armor.

The two of them must have encountered an enemy they couldn't defeat before, which caused such a commotion. Otherwise, they wouldn't be carrying him like a parcel and running away now.

"But don't worry, Mr. Kryuger, I can help you find a set of clothes to wear right away." Noticing the tangled expression on Kryuger's face, C96 waved his hand and pointed to the front of the passage.

The life detector had already responded, and a large number of military doll signals were approaching rapidly. Additionally, they were still rushing forward. It was estimated that in another fifteen seconds, they would collide with the opponent head-on.

Seeing C96 pointing forward, Type 80 nodded and slowed her pace slightly, allowing herself to fall one body behind C96.

At the same time, the machine gun on her shoulder was also set up, pointing directly at the passage ahead.

Seeing Type 80's movements and the machine gun, Kryuger wanted to warn her, but now was obviously not a good time to speak.

Didn’t he see that C96 and Type 80 had suddenly stopped talking and switched to using gestures to communicate?

It was just... could the position of this machine gun be moved a little? The ejection port was right above him! A machine gun shell this big, if it falls, could kill him!

However, he was firmly held by Type 80 and couldn't move at all. He could only try to turn his body sideways and shield his head to avoid being hit by the machine gun shell.

Bang, bang, bang!

At this time, the dense footsteps of the military dolls also sounded from the passage ahead. It seemed that to ensure Griffin's current command system could be completely paralyzed, the military had really made a big bet. The number of these dolls was substantial.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Before the military figures that suddenly appeared in front of them could raise their weapons, Type 80 had already opened fire.

Although the machine gun shells were not very effective against the Minotaurus, they were more than sufficient to deal with these Cyclops, who had only light armor on their bodies.

One shot could directly smash or penetrate four or five dolls!

The military dolls that rushed from the passage did not expect this kind of decisive attack. The sudden assault prevented the three soldiers who came to command the dolls from issuing other orders.

The densely packed Cyclops had already fallen!

C96 was certainly not idle at this time. She did not shoot with a gun like Type 80 but charged forward with her gun raised, looking as if she intended to engage the enemy in melee combat.

Well, it couldn't be called similar-like; after all, C96 originally planned to do so. However, C96's target was not the Cyclops attacking them with tactical moves despite being hit hard, but the three soldiers who followed the military dolls and had just started giving orders to the Cyclops.

These soldiers had what C96 urgently needed: individual protective clothing.

Of course, she didn’t wear it herself but intended it for Kryuger.

This was probably her idea. With so many military dolls present, there must be someone in charge. Since someone was commanding at close range, the commander would definitely wear individual protective clothing.

Although this protective clothing couldn’t be said to be indestructible, it would suffice to defend against ordinary bullets.

And this was only temporary. It was enough to protect against ordinary bullets and fragments. SPAS-12 would soon arrive in the nearby area. As long as these two people were thrown into the gunship cabin, their mission would be almost assured.

As her thoughts turned, C96 had already rushed a distance of dozens of meters and plunged directly into the formation of the Cyclops!

Type 80 behind her also switched to machine guns and fired at the Cyclops.

...

“Tsk, there are more and more military dolls here. If this continues, one of them will have an accident if it is not handled properly,” SPAS-12 said with a frown. She had been driving leisurely with one hand at first, but now that was no longer feasible.

The frequent appearance of military dolls had really caused her a lot of trouble.

“Uh, I should mention this. I was the one responsible for controlling the turret to kill those Cyclops just now,” Type 56 said helplessly from the gunner's seat, though her eyes remained fixed on the screen.

The signals in this urban area were too complicated, and there were often civilians in the surrounding buildings. The military had begun to spread interference in this area. Even though she used the military's identification signal, she couldn't guarantee finding the military dolls and soldiers with ill intentions immediately.

The dolls were manageable because, whether Cyclops or Aegis, their weapons were not a threat to the gunship.

The real threats were those that might attack from a distance at any time, and the human soldiers who could potentially use anti-tank missiles.

Anti-aircraft missiles were useless against gunships, but anti-tank missiles were different. Although a direct hit might not be enough to shoot down the gunship, if a few accumulated or if their attacks disrupted SPAS-12's driving, the gunship might crash.

SPAS-12 did not want to end up like Simonov, who was locked in the training room and practiced driving skills desperately after returning.

“Yes, thanks to Type 56, I can concentrate on driving. But did you notice the signals from C96 and the others? Didn’t they say they would wait for us?” SPAS-12 asked in a somewhat puzzled tone. There had been no news from C96 and the others until now. They only knew that C96 and the others had left their original position and were running away from them.

“Well, you can probably figure it out by looking ahead,” Type 56 said, frowning. They had already arrived at the place where C96 and the others had stayed before, but on this street, apart from a dark pit in the middle of the road, the surrounding buildings were severely damaged, looking as though they had experienced a war.

“This? They encountered the enemy? It shouldn’t be, right? Type 80 is equipped with machine guns. Ordinary military dolls can’t do anything to them, right?”

Not only could they not do anything, but they would be ravaged by Type 80 machine guns as if they were targets.

“There are footprints here. It looks like a big one.”

Many footprints left by the Minotaurus were still visible on the road. The heavy body had left an indelible mark.

“Tsk... Being able to leave footprints on the road, it can be considered a heavy-armored unit, right? Are those guys in the military spending a lot of money this time?”

“I don’t know if it’s a lot of money, but those guys will definitely not give up easily. Now try to contact C96 or Type 80. Only when we connect with the two target individuals will we feel more at ease.”

The military had even brought heavy-armored troops into the city. With this kind of large battle, they were really worried unless they saw the two target individuals.

“Hey! Type 56! Look in the distance! Is that the big guy you just mentioned?” SPAS-12 suddenly narrowed her eyes upon seeing a huge and dark figure on the road ahead.

“Well, if nothing unexpected happens... it should be. The military’s heavy-armored unit, Minotaurus, is equipped with shoulder missile launchers, hand discharge devices, and protective shields on the arm armor...”

“Ah? How do you know so much?” SPAS-12 was stunned. She didn’t expect Type 56 to provide such detailed information.

“All of it is data stored in the military communication channel. You can see it yourself, right?”

SPAS-12's mouth twitched. She was busy driving the gunship and didn’t have time to check the military communication channel for detailed information on military weapons and equipment.

“Forget it. Since it’s military equipment and the direction of that guy is still toward the quarantine wall that BM59 and her team are attacking, Type 56, find a way to take that guy down. It will also help reduce some combat pressure on BM59 and her team.” Type 56 didn’t need reminding. As soon as SPAS-12 spoke, Type 56 had already controlled the two turrets under the gunship's belly and aimed them at the advancing Minotaurus.

Boom! Boom!

Under Type 56's control, the two turrets fired armor-piercing shells at the Minotaurus without hesitation.

Clang!

A short metal penetration sound rang out.

The Minotaurus, attacked from behind, had no extra reaction and fell to the ground immediately!

It rolled out and smashed into a wall before slowly stopping.

“Good job! And this way, C96 and the others should be able to hear the noise, right?”

“It should be possible, but I don’t know where they will come out from.” Type 56 had just contacted C96, who said they would be able to come out of the sewer soon, but they didn’t know the exact location of the manhole cover they used.

Fortunately, the identification signals of C96 and the others were shining like bright lights on the center console of the gunship.

---

C96 rushed forward. It was difficult to break through the defense of the power armor with the opponent's weapons. Therefore, in addition to the Cyclops on both sides being directly smashed and exploded by the machine guns, a large number of Cyclops were knocked to the ground by C96’s sudden reckless behavior!

At this time, Helian in the ammunition box quickly removed her helmet and covered her mouth to prevent herself from vomiting. She began to doubt whether C96 intended to throw her out of the car and run away.

The three soldiers targeted by the attack had no idea what C96 was planning. Before they could react, C96 had already raised her arm and punched one of the soldiers in the abdomen. The soldier’s eyes nearly popped out from the impact!

Seeing this, the two nearby soldiers drew their pistols and tried to shoot the power armor in front of them at close range.

Unfortunately, their efforts were in vain, as C96 did not wait for them to aim before taking action.

The heavy hand of the power armor struck the abdomen of the other two soldiers!

In less than three minutes, a group of military dolls had been defeated, and three human soldiers were knocked to the ground.

Chapter 14: Act as Planned

"Huh, that's more like it. Those bulky men made me think that the power armor I was wearing was fake." Looking at the unconscious soldier lying on the ground, C96 breathed a sigh of relief.

Type 80 also nodded. Although she had used up some of the machine gun shells, she just wanted to resolve the battle as soon as possible. In fact, even if she hadn't used the machine gun, she could still have won a crushing victory with only the machine guns and the performance of the power armor in her hands.

The only uncertainty was that during the battle, Kryuger, a mortal with almost no protection on his body, might have been taken out directly by a stray bullet.

She now understood why Commander Renault always hated those escort missions...

Looking down at Kryuger, who was struggling to take off the protective clothing from the soldier, Type 80 shook her head helplessly, with disgust in her eyes.

"Ugh!

Unlike Kryuger, Helian also crawled out of the ammunition box at this time, but as soon as she took off her helmet, she squatted on the ground and started to vomit.

Just now, when C96 was rushing forward, she hadn't taken Helian in the ammunition box into consideration. A series of accelerations, decelerations, and emergency turns had directly shaken Helian in the ammunition box.

In just a few minutes, it felt like she had been on a roller coaster for an entire day...

"Um, sorry, Agent Helian, I didn't expect you to be in such bad shape." Seeing Helian vomiting and seemingly wanting to vomit out her alveoli, C96 said awkwardly.

It seemed that putting people in the ammunition box was still a little ill-considered. She hadn't expected that the human body couldn't keep up with the mobility of the power armor.

But why was Commander Renault fine?

"Ahem, ugh, no, it's okay, I'll wear this thing like Mr. Kryuger." Helian waved her hand, indicating that she was fine, but she said she would never go into the ammunition box again!

It had been okay when C96 had caught her before; after all, shw had to consider her presence when ahe moved, and the range of motion wasn't too large. But once she was put into the ammunition box, C96 was like a husky on a whim, running and jumping without any scruples!

If she hadn't been wearing a helmet, she would have hit her head and made it bleed.

"I still feel so painful all over my body! I don't know if my bones are broken..."

The two of them trembled as they pulled off the protective clothing and helmets from the soldiers, not caring about the Griffin uniform coats on their bodies, and put them on themselves hastily.

Helian didn't take the other’s helmet because it was full of blood and hard to clean.

It was better for her to use her own helmet. After all, the protective helmet she bought with her own funds was strong enough, and its protective function was not much worse than those used by these soldiers.

Kryuger wasn't as comfortable. He could only find something to wipe it roughly. As a result, after the helmet was buckled on his head, his nose was met with either a bloody smell or a foul odor from various bodily fluids, maybe stomach acid or some undigested food... Ugh...

With the protective clothing, Kryuger and Helian's personal safety was almost guaranteed. At least they would not be shot by the Cyclops that jumped out casually.

The actions of C96 and Type 80 could also be accelerated. SPAS-12 had already found them before, and they had to return to the ground as soon as possible.

...

"Seven hundred meters ahead, at the second intersection, there is heavy military equipment stationed. There is a military patrol team at ten o'clock, behind the building, moving towards three o'clock." BM59 stood on the roof, looking at the military figures that were moving frequently in the distance.

"Uh, heavy equipment? Isn't it an anti-tank gun again? It hurts when it hits you..." MG42 sighed helplessly. She had almost been hit by this type of weapon just now. It was true that the power armor had good protection.

But nothing can protect against it. The electromagnetic-driven large-caliber anti-tank gun equipped by the military must have exceeded the power armor's tolerance.

When she was dealing with a team of Cyclops before, she had almost been hit by that electromagnetic gun. Fortunately, she had dodged quickly, and the shell had just grazed past, taking away a machine gun on her arm.

Even so, a deep dent had been left on the arm of the power armor. Although the armor layer had not been completely torn open, the power-assisting device on the arm of the power armor had failed. She now had to rely on her own strength to move that arm.

"There's no way. I have to go even if it hurts. Who told you to rush out so arrogantly just now? The power armor is not invincible," BM59 said and shrugged her shoulders.

Because they used the military identification code, they could move more freely when facing the military doll patrol team without human soldiers in command.

MG42 had been too arrogant.

Seeing that the Cyclops would not fight back at all under the obstruction of the identification system, she had immediately swelled up like a pufferfish.

Unfortunately, just after he had swelled up, she was immediately taught a lesson by the military soldiers a street away.

Not only had she almost lost an arm, but she had also lost her weapon.

"Tsk, there are more and more military dolls now. Did they know in advance that we were going to attack the quarantine wall in this direction?" Executioner frowned at this time, no longer as manic as when he first arrived. She was not stupid, so she naturally knew when to make a fuss and when to be serious.

"No, the military's mobilization order did not mention our presence. Although we have just destroyed three doll patrols, our current position should not be exposed," BM59 said. After confirming that there were no other military units that could provide timely support except for the combat units she just mentioned, she immediately waved to everyone.

Bang! Bang!

A series of heavy objects fell to the ground, and BM59 and the others jumped directly from the roof.

The continuous landing sounds directly attracted the attention of a Cyclops echelon not far away, and it happened that BM59 and her target were exactly that Cyclops team.

Their current goal was to clear a safe route for the gunship to reach the location of the nearby quarantine wall safely, so these scattered military doll echelons on the way had to be cleared.

And the military base with heavy firepower 700 meters ahead was the top priority because that equipment could already pose a substantial threat to the gunship.

The material used in the power armor was the same as that used in the gunship armor plate. Although the armor thickness of the power armor was not as good as that of the gunship, since it could be deformed by just a touch of it, the gunship would experience the same issue after being hit, and even the armor plate could be directly penetrated.

They had no way to verify how strong the defense of the gunship was now, and it would be even more so after SPAS-12 and the others received Helian. If they took the risk and were shot down by the military, wouldn’t they lose?

After landing, Executioner and MP40 rushed to the front, with a barrier-breaking axe in one hand and a chainsaw in the other.

They rushed forward while the Cyclops just showed their heads from the corner of the street! They raised their hands and chopped down the two Cyclops in the lead.

Vector and P38 behind them did not use their weapons but took out the folding axes that they rarely used from the back waist of the power armor. Except for the four of them, BM59 and her men turned around at the intersection and rushed directly in the opposite direction of Executioner. There was also a Cyclops echelon over there, but it was a little farther away.

This time, BM59 and M14 did not hesitate to use the machine guns on their shoulders.

Bang, bang, bang!

Facing the Cyclops who had identified them as friendly forces, BM59 and her men did not hold back at all and beat the entire troops of Cyclops into scrap metal without hesitation.

Executioner on the other side had also successfully dealt with the Cyclops by this time. The two groups of dolls did not gather together but walked along the roads on both sides towards the military stronghold a few hundred meters away.

The sudden sound of the machine gun also directly alarmed the military dolls at the stronghold. The human soldiers in charge of commanding the stronghold immediately sent two Cyclops echelons to the location where the machine gun sound came from.

"They've taken the bait, but there are only two teams, and there are still many left at the base."

P38 hid in the darkness and looked at the direction of the base. In addition to the two Cyclops troops, there was also a whole Doe echelon at the base and two Aegis troops responsible for guarding.

In addition, on the ground leading to the base, there were numerous automatons resembling mines.

The military's combat code name for these units was likely "Zhi Ling," and their role appeared to be reconnaissance, similar to scouts.

They could either hide underground or lay mines on the road. Although the mines were not visible to the naked eye, their locations were clearly indicated in the military command system.

Fortunately, these units posed no real threat to the gunship driven by SPAS-12, as they had no combat capabilities beyond laying mines. Additionally, the mines could not distinguish between them and military combat units, so there was no risk of the mines detonating just from their presence.

Unless someone specifically commanded the mines to explode.

“Well, it seems that BM59 and the others still have a lot of work ahead of them. It would be ideal if there were a more powerful force available at this moment. A single shot could destroy the entire military base, eliminating the need for us to hide here.”

"Well said, I also want that, but the reality is we don't have it. When you go back, apply to the commander. Maybe the commander will get you a mecha to play with if he is happy." P38 shrugged his shoulders.

Whether it is the machine gun of the power armor or the tank gun equipped on the gunship, this equipment is more than enough to deal with ordinary mercenaries or those Sangvis dolls.

So, their commander hasn’t made new weapons and equipment for a long time. The only thing that can be regarded as a weapon is probably the two Jupiter cannons that Renault personally modified.

However, those are to be used on the spaceship, and their spaceship has no place to install those two big guys now...

And the spaceship can’t show up directly now to support them with the Jupiter cannon, unless Renault wants to be denied entry by most cities.

"Mecha?" Hearing P38's words, Executioner looked at the barrier-breaking axe in hed hand and subconsciously wanted to praise P38's good idea, but then she thought of the "mecha" made by G11 and others before...

The mecha didn’t even have arms, just a cockpit with two bird legs underneath it, which immediately made Executioner’s face scrunch up.

If it's that kind of mecha... forget it... too ugly, not majestic at all. It's better to give her a better sword...

"Let's go, BM59 has already started."

While P38 was talking, a series of machine gun and automatic gunfire sounds came from the direction of BM59 and others.

During the movement, BM59 and M14 kept firing, hunting down the military units approaching them, and occasionally jumped to the rooftops to let the human soldiers at the military base see the flames of their firing.

But then they immediately disappeared from the firing range of the electromagnetic gun, causing the soldiers at the base and the drones to adjust their aim back and forth, but they just didn’t give them the opportunity to fire.

"Huh, it's a good thing MG42 tested the locking time of the electromagnetic gun before, otherwise, it wouldn’t be so easy to attract the attention of those guys now," MG34 breathed a sigh of relief. Every time BM59 was exposed to the firing range of the electromagnetic gun, she couldn’t help but sweat internally.

Although their bodies are very strong now, coupled with the protection of power armor, they may not be destroyed immediately if they are really hit, but serious injuries are definitely inevitable.

"Hehe! Then can I get a raise after I go back this time!" Hearing MG34’s words, MG42 proudly puffed out her chest.

Unfortunately, before she could feel proud for a moment, M14 poured cold water on her, "Raise? You should first think about how to get Scarecrow to help repair this power armor; otherwise, the commander might even deduct your salary."

"Huh!?"

Boom!

Just as MG42 exclaimed, a huge roar suddenly came from the distance.

The direction from which the sound came was exactly where the military base was located.

"Executioner and the others should have already started," BM59 nodded. Everything was going according to plan and nothing went wrong.

Just when they were about to go support Executioner and the others, another ear-splitting roar sounded behind them.

Bang! Boom!

"What is this? The sound of a tank gun? Is something wrong with SPAS-12 and the others!?"

Chapter 15: Friendly Forces, No Fire

"These weapons are too limited in their ability to damage the military dolls themselves," P90 complained about the powerlessness of the looted weapons in her hands while firing and shooting down the Cyclops that rushed forward.

"Be content with having something to use; this thing is at least better than my imprint weapon," MP5 said. She wasn’t as disgusted with these weapons. After all, the imprint weapons in her hands had not been modified too much so far, and their power was not far from the original imprint weapons.

In the past, it was barely enough to fight those unarmored Sangvis or deal with some mercenaries, but now, facing those military dolls with light armor all over their bodies, the bullets fired by the imprint weapons were just tickling.

And now, if it weren’t for these weapons she just picked up, she might have to grab table legs to fight those military dolls.

"Well, okay, but the attack of these dolls doesn’t seem to be that strong. Are these military dolls worried about something?" M1911 didn’t complain about the weapon in her hand but frowned at the military dolls rushing forward in disarray.

The attack of these military dolls was not only unorganized, but the speed of the charge was completely different from their previous movements. The speed slowed down all of a sudden, as if someone was stopping the actions of these dolls.

"It’s hard to say; maybe they are worried about hurting M4?" AR15 frowned. In the previous actions of the military, they had always wanted to capture M4, intentionally or unintentionally, and this time might be the same.

"It’s unlikely. Now the military dolls have already rushed over. If they are worried, why don’t they just order these dolls to retreat?"

"Well, maybe they are using these Cyclops troops to put pressure on Griffin or Commander Gentiane?"

"Hey! What’s the point of you guessing here? Just smash all the ones that rush over! Why are there so many nonsensical comments?" Listening to the discussion of several dolls, MDR waved her hand nonchalantly.

Although the number of Cyclops that rushed over was indeed not small, it was not to the point where they could not handle it. Although the weapons they picked up before were not many, they had now killed another batch of Cyclops.

For them now, these military dolls are just mobile ammunition supply packs. They couldn’t recover the weapons and ammunition of the Cyclops that were knocked down in the distance, but occasionally there were a few closer to the defense line. These were deliberately made to get closer, and then they were knocked down by Super-Shorty, with all the ammunition on their bodies being taken away.

Of course, they had to act quickly because the Cyclops had tried to detonate their energy cores when they were looting.

Unfortunately, they were thrown out by SpectreM4.

Listening to MDR’s speech, which was very similar to Renault’s style, several dolls shrugged helplessly. Although this sounded a bit brainless, it was the current situation.

Only ordinary Cyclops rushed to the defense line, and the military didn’t even let those Aegis with shields rush up.

To be honest, if those Aegis were the first to take the lead, they would indeed be a little flustered. The thickness of the armor on the Aegis and the Cyclops is completely different. In addition to the shields in their hands, if you want to kill these Aegis with the weapon in the Cyclops's hand, you have to shoot at least 20 to 30 bullets.

Or let WA2000 use its own armor-piercing bullets...

Unfortunately, the number of armor-piercing bullets carried by WA2000 is limited. So far, her own imprint weapon has not fired a single shot.

"Commander, why don’t you look worried at all? We are now surrounded by the military’s heavy armored forces." There may be shells falling from the sky on their heads at any time. Isn’t Renault afraid?

"What is there to worry about? Can't we just run away from their artillery location?"

Now their doll bodies at home, if the output is turned to the maximum, will definitely be able to leave the shelling area before the shells fall on their heads.

And they are moving at high speed, making it difficult to be locked-on by the fire control system of the Cyclops or other military dolls.

Even if they are locked-on, as long as they don’t stop, those dolls and autonomous units will not have the opportunity to fire. Although the locking system can work normally, the rotation speed of the military doll body is fixed and does not allow for autonomous overclocking like MDR and the others.

As for the military doll’s actions that made AR15 and the others feel strange, it was entirely because the recognition system of the military doll conflicted with the commander’s order, causing confusion among these Cyclops.

That is why the pace of the assault was slowed down, not because of the existence of M4. Although M4 is here, as long as the Cyclops are ordered to prohibit harming M4, then under normal circumstances, M4 will definitely not have any problems.

Because M4 is a special doll made by 16lab, all the parts on its body are military-grade parts.

With the power of the weapon in the hands of the Cyclops, it is definitely not something that can be dealt with by one or two stray bullets. After all, dolls are not fragile humans, especially tactical dolls with military parts all over their bodies.

Although he already knew the reason, Renault did not point it out. After all, such conflicting commands can be resolved in a few minutes as long as the commander is not an idiot. It's just a matter of time.

"Wow, every time I stand next to the commander, I always feel a sense of inferiority. Why am I not as accurate as the commander? Are all the fire control systems you use for us low-quality?" UMP9 exclaimed as Renault spoke to WA2000 while accurately knocking off the heads of two Cyclops with his guns.

"I think you haven’t practiced enough. Go back and practice more in the training room," Renault said unhappily, giving the unscrupulous UMP9 a blank look.

Fire control system? He had integrated all the functions of the fire control module into the core of their mind a long time ago. Now, whether his dolls can shoot accurately depends on their own practice and understanding.

Although some, like UMP40, have accuracy that is entirely metaphysical, others, like G11, directly become weapons masters.

If you can’t hit accurately? That must be because you haven’t practiced enough!

However, the modified AN94 in the hands of the Cyclops has indeed not appeared many times in the training device, so it is normal that UMP9 and the others are not familiar with it.

And those Cyclops are all moving targets. Their current hit rate is already very accurate compared to other dolls and even military dolls.

…

"How long has it been since SPAS-12 and the others set off?" Angelia turned her head and asked AK12 beside her.

"Well, it’s probably only about 20 minutes. It hasn’t been long. You are a little too anxious."

Hearing this, Angelia sighed. "But can’t you see what’s happening in the city from here? The current situation is quite different from what we expected at the beginning," Angelia said, frowning.

In fact, Statesec had already known in advance that the military would take action against security contractors, and Statesec had no intention of stopping it, because this is a situation that the Bureau of State Security and some upper-level officials are happy to see.

After World War III, the military lacked resources and the power to maintain public order, so they outsourced security tasks in some areas.

But now it is different. After so many years, they have almost recovered, so these security contractors who actually control various areas have become moss that needs to be eliminated one by one.

They don’t need so many uncontrollable security contractors, and they don’t want PMCs that are called security contractors everywhere.

Therefore, it is in the interests of Statesec to use the military’s actions to eliminate those security contractors that are too large to be eliminated.

As for Griffin? Griffin can relax its control a little. After all, Griffin often cooperates with Statesec. If you count carefully, Griffin can also be regarded as supported by Statesec.

It’s just that now the sickle is swinging down, and there is no way to stop because of Griffin, the wheat seedling it planted itself.

If G&K wants to survive this operation, it must cut off its tail to survive, and afterward, it will probably need to leave its original contracted areas.

The military’s current pursuit of Griffin in the city can probably be regarded as taking advantage of the situation, after all, Griffin has caused them a lot of trouble.

Of course, it is better not to let Gentiane and Persica know about these things. Not everyone will be in a good mood when they find out they are like leeks to be harvested.

"Well, just lie here and rest assured. Anyway, you can’t do anything now. I have never seen a human being who can run around vigorously after half of her body bones are broken," RPK16 shrugged and shook the book in her hand.

Compared to fighting wits and courage with the military on the battlefield below, she still prefers to relax on Renault’s spaceship.

"By the way, what did Persica do with M4?" AK12 looked around and found that Persica and M4 were no longer there.

"Well, don’t worry about her. Maybe she was stimulated by Havier."

"Stimulated? Why do I feel that it was Mr. Havier who was stimulated?"

Angelia said with a smile, but she inadvertently pulled her wound. While taking a breath, she also welcomed PA15’s ambiguous smile, as if she saw a little white mouse to experiment with her own skills.

Seeing this, Angelia could only pull the corners of her mouth, lie down honestly, close her eyes, and try to forget the pain in her body.

Can’t you give me an injection of anesthesia? If I sleep, I don’t have to think about so many bad things, and it wouldn’t hurt as much as it does now...

...

At the same time, after hearing the familiar sound of tank guns, BM59 and others hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound.

However, SPAS-12 acted very quickly. The moment after firing, it controlled the gunship to hide behind the building. Even BM59 and others did not see the shadow of the gunship.

Although they did not see the gunship, they did see the huge mecha that had been shot down and was slowly falling to the ground.

"That is the Minotaurus... When did the military bring this type of heavy equipment into the city?"

Seeing the huge mecha, BM59 frowned with a headache.

This huge mecha is equipped with thick armor plates and a Force Shield that can resist most attacks.

For their power armor, it is definitely a very difficult target.

What they saw along the way before were nothing more than some Cyclops and Aegis. Even if it was a Cerynitis, there were definitely not many of them.

Although these are also armored units, the armor on their bodies is not strong enough to be penetrated by aircraft cannons.

And they did not see any large armored units like the Hydra, so BM59 did not think about heavy units. Unexpectedly, they saw a huge heavy armored unit like Minotaurus now.

"Well, although that thing is big, at least the gunship’s firepower can still deal with that guy." Seeing the Minotaurus that had stopped moving, M14 nodded. At least, they were not powerless against this thing.

"Uh, M14, I think before you get optimistic, you should observe the other direction carefully. Behind the direction of Executioner, there are two Minotaurus units approaching..."

MG42 suddenly spoke, pointing to the distance.

Although it is night now, the indicator light on the Minotaurus’s cockpit is very eye-catching to T-Dolls, reminding them that those huge thing can only be the Minotaurus.

"Uh... what should we do now? I don’t know if SPAS-12 and the others have received the target..."

"Let’s see if Executioner and the others have solved it. It’s better if they didn’t damage the electromagnetic gun in the base. If that thing can be used..."

It can be used to deal with the two Minotaurus units.

However, BM59 was a little unsure whether the electromagnetic gun could penetrate the Minotaurus’s shield.

The machine that just fell down fell forward, it was probably caused by SPAS-12 launching a sneak attack from the back of the mech.

Although the armor-piercing shells used by the tanks can penetrate the Minotaurus’s armor, they were from the back and did not face the shield.

So they will use the electromagnetic gun later... Forget it, it’s useless to think so much, and it’s not known whether the electromagnetic gun can be used now.

On the other side, P38 and Vector, after following Executioner and MP40 to the vicinity of the base, launched an attack on the human soldiers in the base without hesitation!

After firing more than a dozen grenades in a row, the human soldiers in the base were directly blown to pieces!

Except for a commander hiding next to the communicator, all the others were killed on the spot.

The military dolls that were attacked quickly adjusted their bodies, raised their weapons, and aimed at Vector and P38, who were firing grenades at them from the shadows.

However, just as they raised their weapons, their own identification systems clearly told them...

[Friendly forces, Firing is not allowed]

Chapter 16: I Won't Come Again Next Time!

"Phew, it's a piece of cake. These tin cans are brainless. Even soldier ants are smarter than these guys," Executioner said, kicking away a headless Cyclops body and looking around to confirm that there were no active targets in the base.

"It's because BM59 attracted their attention just now, and their identification system didn't raise any alarms. The identification codes we use are the same as them, so their search system can't issue an alert," MP40 explained.

MP40 checked the status of the human soldiers and confirmed that they were dead. Vector and P38 had just fired at least 20 grenades at this location. Even if the fragments didn't penetrate the protective clothing of these guys, the vibrations alone could have killed them.

As she listened to the conversation between the two, P38 was about to say something but suddenly frowned. "Wait, did you hear any sound?"

While asking, P38 immediately started to check the military's communication protocol. If there were any military combat units approaching, she should be able to see it.

"Sound? It seems there is. Hmm, there's no movement on the communication protocol. Only two teams of Cyclops are approaching, but they are at least one kilometer away," MP40 replied, pulling the wreckage of the Doe that blocked the road while checking the military's communication protocol.

P38's brows furrowed even more when she heard MP40's words. She had just heard the sound, and it was definitely impossible for her to have heard it wrong!

MP40 was just turning over the wreckage, so there was no...

Bang-bang-

As she was thinking, P38 calmed down, squatted, and immediately heard the sound of several heavy objects falling to the ground. It was definitely not a Cyclops echelon, but something very large!

"P38! What's the situation over there? If you're done, evacuate from the base immediately. Two Minotaurus are coming towards you!"

Before P38 could figure out what the sound was, BM59's voice rang out over the communication channel. P38's eyes widened when she heard it, and she quickly checked the military's communication protocol, trying to figure out what a Minotaur was.

Soon, P38 got the information she wanted. After seeing the somewhat outrageous data on the Minotaur, P38 immediately stood up and said, "Two big guys are coming! Retreat first!"

The other dolls did not question P38's decision. After all, the situation was clear. It was a fact that the military had increased its presence in this area, and they had no means to block the other party's communication, so it was normal for someone to come to support them.

The only strange thing was that BM59 clearly saw two Minotaurus approaching, but the military's communication protocol did not show the signal of these two guys at all.

"I'm afraid they already know that we are also using the military's identification code, so they took the initiative to shut down the military's communication system," BM59 said helplessly. The reason wasn't hard to guess, but in this case, they could only confirm the location of the Minotaurus through primitive means.

Fortunately, these guys are big, and it's not easy for them to hide in this civilian area. They can be easily found.

And with the mobility of the power armor, it is easy to get rid of these big guys who are not very fast.

But the problem is that they are going to the quarantine wall. If these two Minotaurus stand there, what should they do next? Wait for these guys to leave?

Obviously, that's impossible. The military will definitely not leave this area before capturing or killing Kryuger.

"Wait, wait! MP40! Help! Help me carry this thing away!" Just as MP40 turned around and planned to follow P38 and Vector, Executioner pulled her back, holding the already set-up electromagnetic gun in his hand.

The grenades fired by P38 and her two companions just now had killed all the human soldiers and the dolls near the electromagnetic gun, but the electromagnetic gun itself was intact, though there were many dense scratches on its body.

It has to be said that military products are indeed more durable. The exterior of this electromagnetic gun is all wrapped in a layer of armor, which seems to be to avoid situations like the one just now.

It's a pity they didn't expect someone would get close and directly shoot down the operator of the electromagnetic gun...

And this thing doesn't look like a weapon specially provided for human soldiers. The military combat units seen before are all automatons or vehicles like the Minotaurus.

This kind of electromagnetic gun that must be set up and even needs an external power supply to use is obviously incompatible with this military team.

"Huh!?" MP40 didn't think too much about it. The Minotaurus were coming soon. Now was not the time to hesitate. She turned around and started to move the electromagnetic gun.

The two, one in front and one behind, carried the electromagnetic gun, which was more than three meters long, and chased after P38 in front.

Seeing the two carrying a big lump of metal, P38 couldn't help but frown helplessly. "Executioner, why are you carrying this thing? You just saw that it needs to be connected to an external power supply."

The cables were still hanging on the gun, and the electromagnetic gun looked very simple, without any built-in power supply. The only thing that looked like a box was probably just the ammunition supply box for the electromagnetic gun.

"Hey! So what! This thing was able to damage MG42's armor just now. Maybe it can have an effect on those big units called Minotaurus! It's not hard to find a power supply!"

Although they were now in the civilian area of the city, it isn't hard to find something like an underground cable interface.

Jst find a public wire and connect it. When the Sangvis Ferri occupied cities, they did a lot of these things.

Otherwise, how would they charge their units? They couldn't run back to the Sangvis Ferri headquarters to charge themselves and then run out again, right? If they did that, the battery would run out in one round trip, and there would be no time to carry out the mission.

"Well, it sounds reasonable, but are you sure you can really use this thing? What if it has a password?"

P38's worry was not unreasonable. Military equipment, even the sub-channels in the communication system, have special authentication passwords. What if the control system of the electromagnetic gun also has a password? They didn't have time to crack it themselves.

"Hehe! Don't worry! I already have... ahem, it's Scarecrow. She gave me a cracking mod before, which can crack most passwords, even the encryption system used by the military!"

"Really? Impossible! Scarecrow can do this kind of thing? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

"How is it impossible? You know, that girl spends all day in the commander's workshop! Maybe she learned a thing or two from the commander!"

Because they weren't too far away from BM59 and the others, they successfully joined them while talking. They stood on the top of a building and watched the two Minotaurus occupy the position of the previous stronghold.

"What should we do now? These guys for some reason are certain that the weapons we have can't do anything to them." BM59 suddenly had a headache as sbe looked at the two Minotaurus standing in place, that were not intending to search around, and just waiting for follow-up support.

In this way, their actions just now were almost as if they had worked in vain.

...

Pah!

C96 jumped straight up to the top of the sewer, then stabbed her arm into the concrete and grabbed a few steel bars.

"Be careful!" C96 said as she stretched out her hand to pull down a sewer grille next to her.

Splash!

A large piece of sewage mud fell directly with the falling metal grille. Kryuger and Helian, who were below, quickly retreated to avoid these unhygienic things falling on them.

The protective suits they were wearing were already dirty enough. If they were covered in mud, their psychological trauma would probably be aggravated.

Looking at C96 climbing up the concrete wall, Helian felt relieved. It seemed that there was no problem with the exit Kryuger had pointed out.

The only problem was how the two humans were going to climb up. There were no ladders around, and there were no piles of debris that could be used to reach the top...

"OK, it's safe up here!" C96 checked the exit above and confirmed that the load-bearing capacity of the area was fine. She poked her head out and gave a thumbs-up to Type 80 below.

"Okay, I'll take you up," Type 80 nodded, then turned her head and said to Kryuger and Helian.

"Ah?"

Hearing this, the two of them were stunned at the same time and looked up.

C96 hadn't thrown down a rope or anything like that. Shouldn't they find a rope to pull them up? Ropes aren't difficult to find. If there isn't a rope, he could just use a cable!

But Type 80 obviously didn't wait for them to ask questions. Without giving Kryuger a chance to speak, she directly lifted Kryuger's body with one hand, let the other's feet step on her hands, and made a standard throwing action.

"Huh!? Ah!? Ah! Ah!"

Before Kryuger could finish his words, he felt like he was flying through the clouds!

The top of the sewer, more than ten meters above his head, was also approaching at high speed!

"Hey! Safe! Got you!" C96's power armor opened its big hand, grabbed Kryuger, and lifted him up roughly, without considering that the person in her hand was their mission target.

Seeing Kryuger disappear at the exit above, Helian's throat tightened, and she looked at Type 80 next to her with some fear.

However, Type 80 had already raised her hand to grab her. "Don't move, it's okay, I've calculated it."

Type 80 said this, raised her hand, and threw Helian up directly!

"Ahhhh!"

Reaching out to grab the screaming Helian from the hole, C96 also stepped back to make room for Type 80 to climb up.

After Type 80 climbed up, C96 breathed a sigh of relief. They had finally come out of the sewer, and the situation here is relatively normal; at least there were no military combat units around.

"SPAS-12, where are you now? We've climbed up from the sewer and are now in a small forest."

"Yeah, I see the forest you mentioned. It's behind an abandoned villa area. I didn't expect there to be a sewer in such a place. It's really strange." SPAS-12 had been keeping an eye on the tracking position of Helian and C96. Although she couldn't directly observe them, she had already driven the gunship to the vicinity.

Soon, C96 and the others heard the engine sound of the gunship, which wasn't particularly loud. SPAS-12 approached the small forest directly from the other side and then landed steadily outside the forest.

Seeing this, C96 and Type 80 immediately grabbed Kryuger and Helian and rushed to the gunship door. It was really a bit strenuous for them to carry these two. They wanted to get them on board quickly so they could relax.

As the rear hatch of the gunship opened, Type 56 in the cabin walked to the door and waved to C96.

However, at the same time, a series of gunshots rang out!

Da da da da!

"Ouch!?" 56-chan, who had just walked to the hatch, immediately rushed back. Although she avoided being hit by the follow-up attack, unfortunately, the bullet had already struck her body at the moment the gunshot rang out.

"What's going on!? Why didn't the life detector respond?!" Touching the dozen or so holes in her bionic skin, 56-chan shouted in confusion, and hurried back to the gunner's position, controlling the machine gun turret above the gunship to look for attackers around.

"How do I know? These guys have just seen our movements, but they haven't taken any action yet until now!?" SPAS-12 also stared, and her mind quickly thought of the Paradeus units that HK416 and the others had encountered before, who also had no communication signals and no life signals.

However, the attackers this time were obviously not the kind of existence she imagined, but a group of military soldiers wearing heavy protective clothing!

"Hurry up! Come over here!" Type 56 shouted loudly to C96 and the others while controlling the turret to fire back when she found those soldiers.

The bullets that hit her just now weren't very powerful. They were just some ordinary bullets that couldn't penetrate the armor layer of the power armor. It wasn't a problem for C96 and Type 80 to rush over and protect the two humans.

Ding ding ding ding!

C96 and the others couldn't care about anything else. They directly protected Helian and Kryuger in their hands. After using the thick arms of the power armor to shield the vital parts of their bodies, they rushed directly to the hatch of the gunship!

"Really! Next time there's a search and rescue mission like this, I'm not coming! It's too troublesome!"

The feeling of facing a large group of enemies and not being able to pinpoint the enemy's position is truly terrible.

Fortunately, they were wearing power armor this time. If they hadn't worn it, their bodies would probably have been shredded by now!

Chapter 17: Scored Twice?

"Very good, no limbs are missing." After looking Helian and Kryuger up and down, C96 nodded with satisfaction. She and Type 80 were not afraid of the barrage of bullets earlier, but Helian and Kryuger were different.

If there had been one or two powerful armor-piercing bullets mixed in with those rounds, the protective suits on these two might not have been able to stop them.

While C96 was checking the condition of Helian and the others, Type 80 was also standing at the door. While the hatch was still open, she used the machine gun on her shoulder to fight back at the attackers who had suddenly appeared.

"Are these guys crazy? Why are they attacking us for no reason? We don't even know these guys!" Type 80 shouted angrily, watching the mob shooting at them fall in groups like wheat being cut down.

"Huh? They're all military personnel! They must be targeting Kryuger and Helian!" After hearing what Type 80 said, Type 56, who was chasing and shooting the military soldiers with the machine gun turret, suddenly shouted in confusion.

What she saw was a group of military soldiers!

"Behind! I mean behind the gunship! Those in the back are all local militants!"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Type 56 was also stunned, but his hand didn't stop, still intermittently pulling the trigger, firing at the military soldiers.

"Don't worry about it! Just hold on!" SPAS-12 frowned, and as the tail hatch closed, he directly controlled the gunship to gain a little altitude, then slid directly over the small woods and rushed toward the quarantine wall!

Although she doesn't know what the situation is with BM59, it's not a big deal to get hit here. Instead of staying here and listening to the clanging sound, it's better to leave quickly and find a place where no one can see them.

Although they may not be able to hide for long, it should be no problem to hide in the main control room of the quarantine wall occupied by BM59.

Although the armor plate of the gunship was attacked by the city defense gun earlier, the damage was not serious. The deformation of a part of the armor plate isn't enough to make the gunship lose its ability to move.

But even so, they can't just stay here as a target, and the armor plate isn't completely invincible.

SPAS-12's plan may seem sound, but in fact, there's no place in the city where no one is around.

Those residents hiding in their homes, as long as they're a little brave and stick half of their heads out of the window, can easily see the gunship flying low along the road.

Among them, many residents have connections with the armed elements, and it’s easy for them to find the specific location of the gunship.

In this way, the military can quickly lock onto the gunship and the positions of Kryuger and Helianthus inside.

…

"Don't worry! Let me try this thing Scarecrow gave me. As long as it starts, those two big guys will be easy targets!" Executioner had jumped out of her power armor at this point, took out the device given by Scarecrow from her waist bag, and directly connected it to the data interface of the electromagnetic gun.

Considering Executioner's style of not liking to use her brain, Scarecrow had already set this cracking module to foolproof mode from the start. As long as it's connected to the enemy's equipment, the cracking program will automatically run.

"I hope so. The Force Shield on those two bodies are really tough to deal with." MP40 couldn’t help but dampen Executioner's enthusiasm. The Force Shield carried by the Minotaurus is definitely not a small issue.

The protective ability of a small Force Shield is very limited, but a large Force Shield is a completely different matter.

As long as there's sufficient energy, a large Force Shield isn't afraid of overheating, nor does it have to worry about excessive energy consumption. Its protective ability and durability are far beyond the reach of a small Force Shield.

"Hey! They must have enough energy!" Looking at the slowly moving cracking progress bar, Executioner stood up confidently, then pulled out a wrist-thick cable from a distribution box on the roof behind her!

Sizzle!

As soon as sbe pulled it down, a dazzling electric spark burst from the broken part of the cable! It showed that the power in this cable was more than sufficient.

"Is there electricity here too? I don’t think anyone in this building has turned on the lights." Seeing the cable in Executioner's hand, MP40 was puzzled. If there was electricity, there was no reason for those people below not to turn on the lights. It was already midnight.

"They're all human, they need to sleep, and the city is so chaotic now. Would you turn on the lights and attract others?" P38 said helplessly, looking at Executioner next to her.

She really didn't lie—she did a lot of things like connecting cables to steal electricity. Just by pulling out some parts from the distribution box, Executioner easily connected the cables and the charging cables of the electromagnetic gun together!

Just as Executioner finished, Scarecrow's cracking program had completed, and the electronic fuse that originally locked the firing area of the electromagnetic gun popped up, indicating that the electromagnetic gun was now operational.

"Done!" Seeing this, Executioner snapped her fingers, squatted down, and grabbed the firing trigger of the electromagnetic gun.

Seeing Executioner's actions, BM59 and M14 also perked up. The weapons and equipment on the Minotaurus, besides the close-range weapons, only included the missile launchers on its shoulders. Currently, there was a distance of more than 1,000 meters between them and the two Minotaurus units. At this distance, the short-range missiles equipped by the Minotaurus units were no longer a threat to them.

Not to mention, almost everyone on their side had a general-purpose machine gun. Although it's not ideal for attacking heavily armored units, these slow-moving missiles were really not a threat.

"What is this Minotaurus units designed to attack? It's fine that it has all melee weapons, but why is the range of the missile launcher so short?"

P38 tilted her head in confusion. She had now realized that these Minotaurus units heavily relied on their thick armor, right?

"Used to attack Sangvis Ferri? Or some heavily armored units? I think the two weapons in its hands are quite suitable for opening cans, especially tin cans," Executioner joked while aiming. After discovering that the Minotaurus couldn't catch up with them and couldn't deal with long-range enemies, Executioner relaxed. Although they might encounter a group of Cyclops later, those guys were no threat to them at all.

As long as they dealt with the two Minotaurus units in front, their mission would be almost complete.

The military couldn't stuff heavy armored units into the quarantine wall. They were too big and couldn't get in at all.

Bang!

While speaking, Executioner pulled the trigger. With a burst of electric current and a muffled sound, the electromagnetic cannon in Executioner's hand fired directly at one of the Minotaurus units!

Unfortunately, such a blatant attack was blocked by the Minotaurus without any surprise!

With its arms together, holding up the arm armor and the Force Shield, the front of the Minotaurus at this moment was like an impenetrable turtle shell.

"Hey! These guys! They're standing there, but I didn't expect they could see our situation so clearly!"

Executioner said this with some annoyance, but she didn't stop. Instead, shs controlled the electromagnetic gun and turned the muzzle to shoot at another Minotaurus.

However, the military drivers of the two Minotaurus units were no longer novices. After seeing Executioner's slight adjustments, they put up the Force Shield in advance!

Two shots were fired, but it didn't help. The electromagnetic gun they picked up hit the Force Shield, and it was as if the ammunition had been confiscated—it had no effect at all.

"By the way, Executioner, you said that Scarecrow's device can crack most systems, right?" Vector, who had been following P38 silently, suddenly spoke, her eyes fixed on the cracking device Executioner took off the electromagnetic gun.

"Hmm? Probably. Anyway, when I saw Scarecrow take out this thing, she looked so proud that she almost pointed her nose at the ceiling."

"Then... can those two Minotaurus units be used?" Vector raised her hand and pointed at the two Minotaurus units holding up the Force Shield in front of them, and there seemed to be sparks flashing in her eyes.

"Ah, this... should be, probably... OK?" Hearing this, Executioner was stunned. She hadn't expected Vector to actually set her sights on the two Minotaurus units.

"Then lend me this thing, I'll get closer and take a look." Vector said, picking up the cracking device directly from Executioner. She then quietly hid behind P38 before jumping directly from the roof.

Obviously, Vector was planning to change direction, bypass the two Minotaurus units, and try to hack the control system of the two Minotaurus units with the cracking device.

Even BM59 had to admit that this idea was quite bold, and Vector really had to run over to execute it...

If only Spectre M4 were here at this time, she would probably walk over without being discovered, right?

"Don't stop, Executioner, keep attacking those two guys. Now that those two guys are holding up their arm armor and deploying their position shields, they may not be able to see what's happening," P38 said, squinting at the two Minotaurus units.

When these things held up their position shields for defense, their arm armor directly blocked the cockpit of the machine. From this, it was clear that the driver inside probably couldn't see what was happening right in front of them.

Additionally, the Minotaurus was a machine that could only attack melee units, so everyone understood that this thing couldn't be used alone in combat.

It must be coordinated with other forces; otherwise, the Minotaurus was just like two live targets. If others ran away, they could only stand there stupidly. If they weren't live targets, what else could they be?

That is, the shield of this thing is thick; otherwise, it really couldn't scare anyone.

The drivers of the two Minotaurus units were also feeling bitter at this time. It was their first time encountering this kind of a passive situation.

In the past, they had always cooperated with other automatons for training. Unexpectedly, after acting alone for a short while, they encountered this kind of difficult situation.

Just when the two Minotaurus units were cursing whoever left the electromagnetic gun to Executioner, Vector had quietly approached the side of the two machines.

The military drivers could silence themselves by turning off the communication system, and Vector could naturally do it too. In addition, the power armor had a certain concealment function. Until Vector touched the feet of one of the Minotaurus units, the two idiots who were trying to block in the front still hadn't realized that an uninvited guest had approached their machines.

…

"Hey! This identification system works really well!"

"Yes, don't forget to change the identification code every ten seconds so that those guys can't directly identify you as the enemy!" MDR added, narrowing hef eyes, obviously in a good mood.

Although the military dolls could still identify their true identities through their appearance, as long as the identification codes were changed frequently, those dolls would temporarily fall into a state of command conflict.

In this way, MDR and her team could calmly defeat these military dolls that rushed over one by one.

"MDR, have you found the military's command node?" Renault frowned and asked MDR.

The move of changing the identification code could only be used for a short time. The military wouldn't sit and watch them modify the codes for long. When those guys couldn't stand it anymore, then the follow-up wouldn't be the military dolls, but the artillery bombardment of the heavy troops.

Falling shells don't recognize any identification codes after all.

"Well, I did find it. Most of the data and command signals were sent from the northwest, but the distance is a bit far—at least five kilometers away." MDR scratched her head helplessly after hearing this.

The electronic warfare module she carried with her couldn't affect something so far away at all. If she wanted to intercept the opponent's command transmission or directly destroy the opponent's command center...

It was obviously unlikely because even if the command signal came from there, it didn't necessarily mean that it was the command center. It might just be a signal repeater.

Hearing this, Renault frowned. If he ran five kilometers in person, he could probably do it faster than MDR and the others...

"Wait! Commander! There are many Sangvis Ferris rushing over from our due west!" Before Renault could make a decision, MDR shouted again, "It's the Mastermind! She's rushing over here with the remaining Sangvis Ferri echelon!"

Huh? This little girl? Won't she stop until she gets himself killed?

Chapter 18: No Way Out

"Huh? Why is she here again? Was she driven here by the military again?" AR15 really didn't know what to say at this moment. Why did the Sangvis Ferri Mastermind like to get close to Griffin?

Renault was only slightly surprised, but if he thought about it carefully, it wasn't hard to understand why Sangvis Ferri came here.

From the beginning, the military had been driving the Sangvis Ferri forces towards Griffin, and since Griffin began to retreat, the military had been following closely behind Sangvis Ferri.

With the strength of the military, it would have been easy to wipe out the Sangvis Ferri Mastermind and the remaining Sangvis Ferri units. The Sangvis Ferri Mastermind really had no other place to run. Except for Griffin, there were almost combat dolls everywhere.

Now the military has even used heavy troops to surround the Griffin base. When they passed through the military blockade before, the military had already surrounded this area, and the Sangvis Ferri was naturally within the encirclement.

Since they couldn't escape, it wasn't surprising that the Sangvis Ferri Mastermind would think of trying their luck at Griffin to see if they could find M4.

"Well, even if they came here, it wouldn't have much to do with us, right? There are so many armored units on the Sangvis Ferri side; the situation must be much easier than ours, right?" MP5 didn't think it was a big deal. They couldn't just fight them to death as soon as the Sangvis Ferri came over, right?

Not to mention that it was unknown whether those Sangvis Ferris were let in or fought their way in on their own; now the various combat forces of the military were all scattered around.

No matter which direction Sangvis approached from, they would undoubtedly have to fight with the military.

Sangvis Ferris didn't have an identification system that could confuse the military's doll commands, so naturally, they couldn't be as relaxed as they were now.

With the Sangvis Ferris only bringing armored units now, after fighting with the military, the battle would probably be very intense. They only needed to delay for a while, and their spacecraft might be back.

At that time, whether it was evacuation or forcibly hindering the military's actions through interference, it would be a piece of cake.

So there was nothing to worry about. The arrival of Sangvis Ferri is actually good news for them now.

Whether it was P90 or Super-Shorty, their ideas were not much different from MP5's. P90 even stopped firing and started to rest.

Well, the main reason is that the military dolls, after discovering the sudden appearance of Sangvis Ferri, turned around and began to rush towards Sangvis Ferri, apparently intending to prevent Sangvis Ferri and Griffin from meeting.

But Renault wasn't so optimistic. This sudden turn of guns to deal with Sangvis Ferri was obviously not a normal order.

Even if the military really wanted to deal with Sangvis Ferri, there was no need to directly mobilize the military dolls that were attacking the Griffin base. Couldn't they just send a group of military dolls from their reserve forces?

Now Griffin's main force is trapped inside the base, and without the dummy dolls, the combat effectiveness is not as good as before.

However, the combat effectiveness of Renault and the others is not for show. The military has just dropped nearly four or five hundred Cyclops near their positions. Although it sounds like a lot, it is simply a trivial number for the military.

So now, these Cyclops that have been mobilized probably have other purposes behind them.

At this time, with P90's big head, the other dolls also put down their guns and began to check the status of their weapons.

Almost all of the Cyclops were facing their backs to their defense line at this time, and the distance was a little far, so the dolls naturally had no intention to continue chasing. In that case, their ammunition consumption would definitely increase a lot.

Although a lot of ammunition and weapons were seized from the Cyclops just now, it was only a part, and that was the part they took the initiative to give.

Those Cyclops that were destroyed far away from the defense line, of course, could not be recovered.

Renault frowned as he watched a group of dolls turn off their engines to save ammunition and watch the Cyclops in the distance. The Cyclops in the distance... appeared to be retreating?

They weren't retreating towards the original blockade position of the military, but were approaching their location, which was the circle of defense outside the Griffin base.

The speed was not fast, and could even be called slow. At first glance, it seemed that the Cyclops were being beaten by the units of Sangvis Ferri and were retreating step by step...

Sure enough, these guys in the military were still planning to let Sangvis Ferri rush over and directly break through their defense line.

What was blocking Sangvis Ferri? It was just a cover, just to let Sangvis Ferri come over and fight them!

"Wow! I just lowered my head and loaded a magazine! How come those Cyclops are so close?" Just by lowering her head and filling a few magazines, MDR looked up and found that the distance between those Cyclops and them was only a little more than 300 meter.

A few minutes ago, these guys were still blocking the charge of the Sangvis Ferri at a distance of 400 meters!

Seeing this scene, even if the group of dolls were slow, they knew that something was wrong.

Commander! Do you want to shoot down those Cyclops?" UMP9 raised the muzzle of her gun, aimed at the Cyclops, and asked Renault

"Wait! Wait! If we shoot them down directly, will the Sangvis Ferri rush over soon?!"

WA2000's worry was not without reason, because those Cyclops could not stop the Manticores of the Sangvis Ferri. What's the difference between shooting down those Cyclops and letting the Sangvis Ferri come over directly?

"Shoot them down, but remember to switch to the Sangvis Ferri identification system temporarily." Renault shrugged his shoulders.

The commander of the military originally had this plan, to drive the Sangvis Ferri to collide with them. If a fight breaks out, that would be the best. They would sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and finally reap the benefit.

If there is no fighting, then the military echelon can also launch an attack directly.

Anyway, Griffin's dolls are not many, and when they are mixed in with the Sangvis Ferri team, their combat effectiveness will probably not be fully exerted.

As for whether Griffin and Sangvis Ferri will suddenly start to cooperate after they meet and attack the military's encirclement together, that is simply impossible.

Well, at least it is absolutely impossible in the eyes of normal people.

...

Ding Ding Ding!

Listening to the crisp sound of bullets hitting the armored plate of the gunship, Helianthus couldn't help but shrink her neck nervously.

Although Type 56 had just used the machine gun on the gunship to kill those militants and the military personnel who instigated them behind the scenes, but... now the gunship is moving slowly on the street, and from time to time, a few restless militants will jump out with guns to shoot at the gunship.

Although it is known that the gunship will never be hurt by these weapons, what if...

What if the militants who jump out are not holding firearms, but RPGs or anti-tank guns?

"SPAS-12, has the operation at the quarantine wall not been completed yet?" Thinking that some unknown armed personnel with heavy firepower might pop up at any time, Helian was worried.

"Well, we encountered some trouble. Now the military is stepping up its efforts to search for you two. Most of the military forces in the city are moving towards this area. They encountered two Minotaurusus over there. Those things are too tough."

Although it still couldn't stop the armor-piercing shells fired by the gunship, it was the result of SPAS-12 and Type 56 sneak attacks from behind.

If it was attacked directly from the front, the final result would probably be either a ricochet or being blocked by the field shield.

"Minotaurus... Isn't that the large mecha provided to the military by Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing before? I didn't expect the first experimental target after it was deployed in actual combat would be our Griffin..." Kroger was stunned when he heard this and then shook his head with a wry smile.

The military action this time was significant. Even a large piece of heavy equipment like the Minotaurus was brought out. It shows how much Carter wants to kill him...

After so many years of friendship... Forget it, let's not talk about it.

"After we go back this time, we must convince the commander to support the mecha plan of Foreman G11! If we had mecha this time, we wouldn't have been chased and beaten by that Minotaurus just now!" C96 opened the hatch of the power armor and waved her hand in annoyance.

Type 80 also nodded. She had initially thought that the G11 and Nagant Revolver plan was just a playful and temporary enthusiasm. She didn't expect that facing mechas in reality would make her truly desire one.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Helianthus smirked and looked at the power armor the two were wearing.

These two, it's already a violation that you have power armor equipped with large-caliber machine guns, not to mention this armored gunship equipped with tank guns, and Renault's armed spaceship...

Tsk tsk, if it weren't for the fact that Universal Anything has a big reputation and most of the equipment you have is unknown to most organizations, you would be regarded as a dangerous element and strictly guarded, even if you just showed up in the city.

It can only be said that the information blockade on Statesec's side is very effective, and Renault had some prior cooperation with Statesec. Plus, they have always been unknown except in this area...

But this news this time, it probably can't be concealed. Renault's spaceship will likely be known to most organizations soon, and then there will definitely be all kinds of people coming to trouble Renault for various reasons.

Ding ding ding!

"Here they come again. Is this ever going to end? They know they can't penetrate, but they still keep shooting here... Wait! Are those guys notifying the military of our position this way?!"

Sitting in the gunner's seat, 56, who had taken out snacks again, exclaimed in surprise!

"Huh? Did you just figure that out? Otherwise, I can't think of why those guys would keep tickling the armor plate of the gunship." SPAS-12 curled her lips. Since she already knew those militants were cooperating with the military, their position must have been exposed long ago.

However, SPAS-12 was not worried about being chased by the military. She had been monitoring them all along. The large military forces had gathered near the central area of the city, and most of the military doll echelons near this civilian area had been knocked out.

It was estimated that it would take about five to six minutes for the military dolls in other areas to arrive. Although there weren't many, it should be more than enough for BM59 and her team.

...

"Hey! Two idiots! Haven't you noticed that Vector has installed the device yet?" Looking at the two Minotaurusus still in a defensive posture, Executioner sneered.

P38 was less optimistic. She squinted at the electromagnetic cannon controlled by Executioner. "This electromagnetic cannon appears to have overheated. If it continues firing like this, it will explode, right?"

Although she didn't know what the energy core of the electromagnetic cannon was, P38 didn't think it could continually support the cannon's attack.

Among the military combat forces she had seen before, she had never encountered one equipped with this kind of electromagnetic cannon, so if nothing unexpected happened, the one in Executioner's hand should be a test product. If that's the case, overheating and explosion are indeed possible...

"Tsk, there's nothing we can do, Vector hasn't withdrawn yet..." Executioner frowned and said, but the trigger of the electromagnetic cannon in her hand could no longer be pulled, as if something had jammed it.

"Oops!" Seeing the red light on the indicator of the electromagnetic cannon, Executioner's heart sank. "P38! What going on?!"

BM59 also sighed, knowing that things were not going as smoothly as Executioner had planned.

"Let's go, let's find a chance to paralyze another Minotaurus. Executioner, you stay here and attract the attention of those two guys."

Indeed, if Executioner's plan were followed, the two Minotaurusus could be dealt with without bloodshed. But now the situation has changed. SPAS-12 has received Kroger and Helian and is slowly approaching the quarantine wall of this area. They are also being hunted down. If they are delayed, it will not be good for them.

"Eh? Hey! Don't leave me here alone!" Executioner shouted, but unfortunately, BM59 had already jumped down from the roof with M14 and P38 as soon as she said this!

"I'm still here!" MP40 pulled a corner of her mouth. This guy really should have a limit to ignoring others!

"Great! MP40! I knew you wouldn't leave me here alone! I'll treat you to a drink when we get back! Simonov's most precious treasure!"

"No thanks, I don't like drinking."

While the two were talking, the two Minotaurusus in the distance also noticed that Executioner had gone silent. One of the Minotaurusus immediately put away its Force shield but did not lower the arm shield, as if testing Executioner's patience.

Chapter 19: The End is Near

The electromagnetic gun was locked due to overheating, so Executioner had no further attacks available.

Seeing this, the Minotaurus, which had just removed its Force Shield, confidently lowered its arm armor, contemplating whether to charge and eliminate the adversaries who seemed to be oblivious to their peril.

What he didn’t notice was that the other mech beside him also had removed its defenses. Not only had the Force Shield and arm armor been taken down, but even the cockpit door was wide open!

The other pilot was bewildered. He hadn’t moved anything, so why had the mech suddenly shut down, and why was the cockpit door open? Shouldn't this door only open manually when the power is off?

Just as the pilot tried to restart the mech, a figure burst into the cockpit from outside. The first thing to enter was a foot that went straight to the pilot's helmet and delivered a forceful kick!

Crack!

The heavy kick not only flattened the pilot’s helmet but also broke his spine.

Observing the pilot who died without a sound, Vector nodded, unbuckled his seat belt, threw the pilot out of the cockpit, and took his place.

Examining the cockpit’s driving system, Vector scratched her head. The layout inside was somewhat similar to the SCV made by her commander, and there was a driving tutorial next to it. The previous driver had even spread out the booklet and clipped it for reading.

Moreover, most of the buttons had text, so driving it wasn't too difficult.

"Start, then balance system self-check, this is the weapon system, this is the arm, this is the bipedal motion control... um, I’ve got a general understanding." After a few glances and grasping the basic driving method of this Minotaurus, Vector removed the electronic device made by Scarecrow and restarted the mech.

Buzz——!

As the mech roared to life, the driver in front was startled. He looked back through the optical observation system of the mech but only saw the Minotaurus powering up.

"Huh? What’s going on? Why are you restarting the mech?" The light was dim at night, and the cockpit was several meters high, so the driver who had been thrown to the ground and was now standing up was naturally not visible.

"It’s just a minor malfunction." Hearing this voice over the military’s dedicated communication channel, Vector responded casually.

"Huh? Malfunction? Surely, the things developed by Sangvis are unreliable... Wait!? Who are you!?" The driver, initially complaining about the Minotaurus designed by Sangvis Ferri, soon realized that the voice was unfamiliar and did not belong to any of the usual drivers.

It wasn’t even a man!? He didn’t remember there being a female driver among the Minotaurus operators!

"Who am I? Your teammate," Vector replied nonchalantly. Her power armor had been set aside, and the grenade launcher on it couldn’t effectively damage the Minotaurus.

With the electromagnetic cannon on Executioner’s side having been abandoned, the Minotaurus she had commandeered was the main tool she could use to inflict damage on the other mech.

However, the weapons on this mech... the anti-tank missiles on the shoulders were definitely inadequate. They couldn’t penetrate the Minotaurus’s armor, but it was worth trying, given it was all military equipment anyway.

What if the armor on the Minotaurus's back was weaker?

Before the Minotaurus in front could turn around, Vector had already aimed at the back of the other mech and fired.

Boom!

The distance between the two mech was only a few meters, and all the missiles that had just been launched hit the back of the Minotaurus without missing a single one!

Boom!

Vector didn’t intend to stop. With sixteen rounds of ammunition in the launcher, and the ability to fire four at a time, she kept going.

Even a large mech like the Minotaurus struggled to maintain balance after being hit by two rounds of missiles. More critically, the shock waves from the explosions had damaged various components inside the Minotaurus.

"Stop!" The panicked military driver exclaimed, pulling the control lever in an attempt to turn the mech around and use the arm armor to block the incoming attacks.

But the mech's response had significantly slowed, and combined with the explosion’s impact, it felt as though the mech was falling forward!

Boom!

Boom!

Vector, however, had no intention of listening. She fired all the remaining ammunition in the shoulder launcher in one go!

By the final round of attack, the Minotaurus in front had already fallen to the ground, and two of the missiles landed on the empty road in front.

Although the opponent had fallen, Vector showed no signs of stopping. There was no weak armor on the Minotaurus’s back. Everything inside the mech was protected by a layer of solid armor.

This kind of an attack alone was not enough to completely deprive the opponent of its combat effectiveness.

In addition to the missile launcher on the shoulder, the only weapon on the Minotaurus was the pair of weapons on its arms, which she didn't know what kind of weapons they were.

This thing is able to discharge electricity, but it is more likely used as a blunt weapon.

At this time, Executioner and MP40 in the distance also saw Vector controlling the mech to attack. When the mech controlled by Vector waved its two arms flashing with dazzling electric light and smashed down on another Minotaurus, Executioner shouted excitedly!

"Okay! Hit! Hit hard! Beat that guy into scrap metal!"

"Okay, Executioner, let's go quickly, BM59 and the others have moved to the vicinity of Vector." MP40 said, and directly pulled Executioner towards the direction of Vector.

They have been blocked by the two Minotaurus for a long time. If this continues, when the large military forces arrive, the SPAS-12 gunship will really have no chance to retreat.

...

"Oh! It sounds like the fighting in front is really lively!" C96 has climbed out of the power armor at this time, and approached the porthole, trying to see what happened at the fighting position.

Unfortunately, apart from a few flashes of fire, only some vague sounds of metal collision can be heard.

"This is not good news. This is a loud noise, I remember that BM59 and the others should not be carrying this level of firepower?"

To be precise, they don't have this kind of loud individual firepower.

"But there is no bad news now. The military's signal interference has no effect on us." Type 80 is not in a hurry.

Because once the situation is different, BM59 will definitely notify them. Even if the military's communication channel is not available, they can still call directly with their mobile phones.

"That's right..."

"SPAS-12, we have cleared the two Minotaurus at the previous military base. Vector's power armor is still there. When you come over, you can recover it by the way." Before C96 finished speaking, BM59's voice rang out from the gunship's communication device.

"Received." SPAS-12 said, turning back to shrug at C96 and the others, "The recovery is up to you."

"Uh, why did you throw the power armor down? And you have to move that thing... Wait! Why did Vector take off the power armor! Could it be that she found something else to drive!?" C96 was about to sigh, but suddenly thought of something, and was refreshed, staring at Type 80 and asked.

"Just take a look and you'll know." Type 80 said, raising her hand and pointing out the porthole. SPAS-12 had already sped up when it heard the sound of BM59. The distance of a few streets was only a few tens of seconds for the gunship.

As the gunship approached the location of the previous razed military base, the first thing that came into everyone's sight was a Minotaurus that had already fallen to the ground!

With the help of the lights on the gunship, everyone could clearly see that the armor on the back of the fallen Minotaurus was already in a mess, and the joints of the arms and legs were smashed to pieces. The body was constantly flashing with arcs, and it looked like it could explode at any time.

The Vector power armor was now placed at a corner on the street, but not long after that, several residents were already looking at the power armor.

"Go quickly, otherwise the power armor will be taken away by others." Type 56 urged

"How is it possible? That thing weighs at least a ton. How can these ordinary people move the power armor?" C96 said this, put on the power armor again, and trotted towards Vector's power armor with Type 80.

Da da da da!

Just as the two jumped out of the gunship, another series of bullets hit the gunship. The crisp gunshots directly announced the location of the gunship to the surrounding military units.

Neither SPAS-12 nor C96 planned to pay attention to this insignificant attack.

BM59 has solved the two biggest obstacles, and the next action should not be difficult.

The Minotaurus can't get into the internal facilities of the quarantine wall, and without this thick-skinned big guy blocking the way, ordinary military dolls are not difficult for BM59 and others.

Even if they encounter the military Hydra halfway, it's the same.

The thickness of the Hydra's armor is completely different from that of the Minotaurus. It is not difficult for the machine gun shells to penetrate it.

Because the joints on the Hydra are obvious, even ordinary etched weapons may injure these four-legged autonomous units specially used for all-terrain combat.

Ding ding ding ding!

It is not known whether someone has set their sights on the power armor left by Vector. The recovery operation of C96 and the others was warmly welcomed by the local residents. Well, with bullets.

Accompanied by the sound of bullets hitting their bodies, the two quickly moved Vector's power armor back to the gunship cabin.

"Really, they are a bit too enthusiastic. Why didn't we know that the residents here were so martial when we came here before?"

Those attacks... well, they can't be considered attacks. They can only be said to on the level of harassment. They all shot from the windows. There were all kinds of weapons, long guns and short guns, and she even saw a DP28.

Although these weapons are just tickling the power armor, the feeling of being attacked by so many local residents is really uncomfortable.

"Well, no wonder Griffin never lets us go to the civilian area when we were patrolling." Type 80 nodded thoughtfully.

They have almost all kinds of weapons on hand, why do they need Griffin's tactical dolls to maintain law and order? With this situation, let alone maintaining law and order, the tactical dolls will be dismantled and sold as parts by these guys in less than five minutes.

"Well, Griffin's business is not easy to do either." C96 said this, turned her head to look at Kryuger, and blinked.

Hearing C96's words, Kryuger choked in his throat and smiled helplessly. Although most of Griffin's security contracting contracts were received from the Security Bureau or the military, but...

From the time G&K was just founded to now, there are still many people who do not agree with what G&K does. After all, G&K is a security contractor.

Besides, not all combatants of security contractors will treat humans as politely as Griffin's tactical dolls.

"Mr. Kryuger, the situation on Commander Gentiane's side should not be optimistic now. Regarding the back-up plan you mentioned before..." Looking at the increasingly close isolation wall, Helian was also a little worried about Gentiane who was far away in the Griffin base.

It was okay on their side. The military did not dare to do too much in the city. Although it was already exaggerated now, Gentiane was really facing the larger military forces.

Whether it was the military's mixed combat battle group or the military's heavy armored troops, no matter which one, it was not an enemy that Griffin's tactical dolls could deal with.

"This... I don't know the specific situation. This matter is handled by Havier." Kryuger pondered for a moment and shook his head with a headache.

This situation has exceeded his initial expectations. He thought that even if Carter was reckless, he would not kill his former comrade-in-arms, right? As a result, the facts have proved everything.

As for what Havier prepared... he wasn't sure if he could stop the military, but there was no doubt that those things would definitely give the military's special operations echelon a hard time!

Ding ding ding ding!

As he was talking, the sound of bullets hitting the gunship's armor plate suddenly increased again!

"Hey! Type 56! Quickly kill those Cyclops, the military guys have already come over here!"

Outside the porthole, there was a whole echelon of Cyclops, who were using their weapons to spray ammunition at the gunship.

Chapter 20: His Face Fell to the Ground

"Hey, this is too much trouble. Anyway, these cyclops can't penetrate the armor layer. It would be a waste of shells to shoot them down."

If they were human soldiers, it would be fine. But if they're just dolls, it feels like a bit of a waste.

Hearing this, Type 80 rolled his eyes. Only Type 56, sitting in a gunship with thick armor, could worry about whether to waste shells. They usually just opened fire and cleared the military dolls immediately upon sight.

However, Type 56 wasn't wrong. It would indeed be a waste to use machine guns on these cyclops, but at the moment, they couldn't just open the hatch and let C96 and her use machine guns to deal with them.

Once the hatch was opened, the ricochets from incoming bullets would be enough to make Kryuger and Helian unlucky.

"Hey, don't worry, we can get rid of these guys soon, just a few more circles." Although the signal from BM59 hasn't been received yet and they can't approach the quarantine wall for now, there was no problem circling around in this urban area. SPAS-12 was also very clear-headed at the moment. She directly controlled the gunship to turn around and rushed straight towards the cyclops!

Using machine guns was a bit wasteful, and they couldn't use the machine guns anyway, so the only option was to use something hard!

"Hold on!"

Although SPAS-12's driving skills weren't as superb as Simonov's, the gunship was tough. She lowered the flight altitude to about half a meter. Although there were some bumps up and down, it was a minor issue for the gunship.

The gunship's armor plate had already been pitted by the city defense artillery when they rushed through the city's quarantine wall. It would definitely need an overhaul after they returned. Now, this small bump was insignificant.

"Uh!?" Kryuger nearly suffocated as he saw the cyclops up close.

These dolls didn't follow the rules! Is it really okay to drive this flying contraption in the sky like a tank!?

Bang! Bang, bang, bang!

Faced with the sudden rush of the gunship, the military's cyclops did react. Some of them standing on either side of the team jumped aside to escape. Those standing in the middle, however, had no way to run and were smashed into pieces by the gunship as obstacles.

Feeling the violent vibrations of the gunship’s fuselage, Helian's face had turned completely pale. Her eyes were fixed on her feet, fearing that the armor plate and cabin structure under the gunship might disintegrate under SPAS-12's rough control!

...

As SPAS-12 was driving recklessly, BM59 and the others also rushed straight to the entrance of the bottom layer of the quarantine wall. The Minotaurus, driven by Vector, followed behind. The reason why she hadn’t reverted to wearing power armor was that she was worried there might be other armored units like the Minotaurus that could suddenly appear and block the way.

But this was obviously unlikely. Although the military wanted to completely eliminate the troublesome existence of Griffin and Kryuger once and for all, there was no need to invest too many troops in a city.

Three Minotaurus units as heavy armored units were already a very outrageous situation.

After all, what they initially had to deal with was just an ordinary security contractor. Although Griffin had many tactical dolls on hand, for a military equipped with idea-jamming equipment, those tactical dolls could be turned into big dolls without cores at any time.

If this were Griffin a few years ago, they might have had to put more thought into it because there were still many human combatants in Griffin at that time.

However, with the various changes in recent years, the number of human employees in Griffin has dropped off a cliff, and the entire headquarters might not even be able to muster a hundred living people.

And most of those remaining are civilian staff in the logistics and intelligence departments.

How could they fail to take down Griffin when they even brought out three heavy pieces of equipment like the Minotaurus?

They weren't looking down on Griffin. Of all the weapons Griffin has, which one can penetrate the armor of the Minotaurus? Griffin doesn't have any heavy firepower. At most, they could get a few RPGs, but are they effective?

Oh, they are useful. The Cyclops can't handle them; they can hit the Aigis, but the others...

Hydra... forget it. By the time an RPG can hit the Hydra, the opponent's grenade launcher will be ready to fire continuously, along with the large-caliber machine gun mounted on its body...

You can only find a chance if you really risk your life, and you have to hit it accurately...

Not to mention the Minotaurus. You can't even break the field shield, let alone the armor.

Back to the present, Vector, who originally wanted to keep this Minotaurus for emergency use, found that there were no other heavy armored forces except for a few soldiers blocking the road, and she didn’t even see a Hydra.

Fortunately, she was still worried about what might happen in the next action. Now it seems that the military can't do everything perfectly.

Although a few military soldiers and Cyclops were blocking the way, they were not a threat to dolls wearing power armor like BM59 and the others. They also destroyed two air defense positions that the military had just set up not long ago.

It was just a convenience. After all, the air defense platforms didn't use any advanced electromagnetic guns or particle weapons, only old-fashioned air defense missiles, which weren't a big threat to the gunship.

But when BM59 and the others rushed to the entrance under the quarantine wall, they encountered some minor troubles.

"Executioner, can this door be split open?" MG42 raised her hand and knocked on the door at the entrance of the quarantine wall.

The metal door made a dull sound. Obviously, the thickness of this door was beyond what Executioner and MP40 could handle.

"Impossible, no matter how you think about it. It's at least half a meter thick. How can I split it open when MP40's electric saw can't cut through it?"

Facing the half-meter thick solid metal door, Executioner had to admit that she was still a little too young. Shs thought she was invincible with a barrier-breaking axe in hand, but now she could only stare blankly.

"Tsk, really, why didn't I notice this door was so thick when I came out from there before?"

"Then how about we go from above? Do it again?" P38 looked up and saw that the city defense cannons were adjusting their positions, trying to lock onto these uninvited guests.

But unfortunately, the depression angle of the city defense cannons didn't support them attacking targets at the bottom of the quarantine wall.

"From above? Oh! Got it! Vector! Help me!" Hearing what P38 said, Executioner also looked up at the quarantine wall, then her eyes lit up, and she shouted to Vector.

"Yeah." Vector nodded and directly controlled the Minotaurus to squat, then leveled the arm armor on its arm, and stood up again after Executioner and MP40 jumped up.

Executioner and MP40 then took the opportunity to climb onto the top of the Minotaurus, shortening their distance to the top of the quarantine wall by nearly ten meters.

Although the gate of the quarantine wall was made of metal, the quarantine wall itself was not. Even though it was made of high-grade concrete, it was still climbable.

Clang!

Under the control of Executioner and MP40, the fingers of the power armor directly poked a small hole in the quarantine wall, and the two climbed up to the top of the quarantine wall little by little.

"It's outrageous. I never thought that the fingers of the power armor could be used like this." BM59 looked up at the actions of Executioner and MP40, saying with a stiff expression.

It now seems that the machine guns on the power armor are not the most powerful equipment it has. The truly powerful thing is the power armor itself... Is the material too strong?

Of course, except for the two executioners, the others did not attempt to climb up directly. BM59 and M14 were carrying machine guns, making such flexible movements as the two above somewhat unrealistic.

This time, they weren't focused on clearing the surrounding city defense cannons; instead, their priority was to have the two executioners open the door inside the quarantine wall first.

Dealing with the city defense cannons could wait until they were inside.

Soon, the two climbed up directly, and then the people below heard the city defense cannons at the top suddenly activate.

"Hey! Executioner! MP40! Are you two okay!?"

"We’re fine! These city defense cannons are so dumb! They even helped us break through the entrance door! We're going in now! Wait for our good news!"

"Remember not to damage the main control system directly this time! Otherwise, you two will have to deal with those city defense cannons by yourselves!"

"I know, I know!"

Listening to Executioner’s somewhat annoyed tone, BM59 was still a little worried. "I hope that guy behaves himself this time."

Though that seems unlikely...

"Hahaha! That's it! That's right! What happened before wasn't right at all!"

Executioner who rushed into the quarantine wall certainly wasn’t as concerned as BM59. She waved the barrier-breaking axe in her hand, chopping down the Cyclops and military soldiers who blocked his path one by one without hesitation.

MP40 beside her couldn’t even find a chance to intervene. Letting this girl have SPAS-12's power armor was a good choice. If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t be as effective.

MP40 didn’t use her chainsaw. She realized that even though the Cyclops and ordinary military soldiers were wearing armor and protective clothing, they still couldn’t withstand the punches and kicks of the power armor.

The direct action was even more efficient than her machine gun...

Machine gun bullets might ricochet off these armored Cyclops or fail to penetrate them. The protective clothing on the soldiers might not be penetrated either, but it was different with fists.

What do you mean by not being able to penetrate? That doesn’t apply! You just need punch!

Concrete would break, let alone the light armor on these Cyclops and the bones under the soldiers’ protective clothing.

"By the way, Executioner, I remember there’s a recorded level in the training room that teaches fighting skills, right?"

"Huh? How would I know about that? I didn’t pay attention to that. Let’s talk about it when we get back! Anyway, we’ll see it in a few minutes!"

"No, no, I’m afraid there’ll still be a lot to do when we get back. Don’t forget that there are still many military troops around the commander and Commander Gentiane."

As they talked, they chopped and smashed their way through. The military personnel deployed inside the quarantine wall couldn’t stop the two from advancing at all.

When they reached the door of the main control room, it was the same routine. MP40 sawed the door open and then rushed in with a shield.

This time, Executioner was much more rational and didn’t directly hit the main control desk with an axe.

"It’s done. Come in." As MP40’s voice sounded, the door in front of BM59 and the others opened.

The team that rushed into the quarantine wall didn’t stop but went straight to the top of the wall to deal with the city defense guns that could threaten the gunships.

Vector also left the Minotaurus Mech and, before leaving, placed some thermite and incendiary bombs in the cockpit.

The outside of the aircraft was solid, but the inside of the cockpit was not.

The control system of the aircraft turned into a pile of scrap metal under the heat of the thermite and flames, especially the main control computer, which was completely ruined, and the inside of the cockpit was burned into a ball of charcoal.

However, it must be said that this aircraft is strong. Even though the cockpit was completely destroyed, the rest of the aircraft remained intact. The military only needs to replace the cockpit, and this thing can be put back into the battlefield.

"SPAS-12! Stop playing around! BM59 are done!; we should go pick them up!"

Just as SPAS-12 was drifting the gunship along the road, C96 shouted helplessly, squeezing her eyes shut.

The sound of the gunship’s bottom armor plate scraping against the surface was really too annoying!

"Eh? That’s it? I’ll go pick them up now!" SPAS-12 was still a little unsatisfied after hearing C96’s shout. She felt that SPAS-12 shouldn’t be driving a gunship—she should be driving an armored vehicle or a tank.

Kryuger and Helian breathed a sigh of relief. It was finally over. Any longer, and they would have wanted to jump off the gunship!

When the gunship arrived at the quarantine wall, BM59 and the others were already waiting at the top.

Looking into the distance, you could still see the military team running towards them.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t match the speed of the gunship. They could only watch as the gunship flew to the top of the quarantine wall.

Then BM59 and the others were picked up one by one.

"The military has really lost their dignity now..." Kryuger couldn’t help but sigh as he watched the soldiers retreating into the distance. He could almost see the resentment in those eyes under their helmets...

After all, the actions of BM59 and the others were like two big slaps in the face of the military...

.
