Chapter 1463 Storm The Underground - Final

"Move out of the way!" Jin said as he took his emptied p90 submachine gun and threw it at one of the Rebel Mechanoids before smas.h.i.+ng his electric drill right through her chest. 'Blood' spilt everywhere and there was no chance for that particular Mechanoid to be repaired.

Jin then picked up her weapon and started spraying incessantly to clear the path right in front of him. To him, he was moving erratically to throw off the Rebel Mechanoids' attacking pattern. However, all of this was still within operation limits as Yinn picked off the soldiers was a threat to Jin with utmost accuracy. Diaz on the hand was the squad's cleaner as she pushed shotgun slugs into surviving Mechanoids to make sure that they do not bite them back from the rear.

It was proving to be an effective clearing method until a grenade came loping through the tunnel. There was some hesitation by Yinn and Diaz but Jin had seen this far enough in his battles that he did not waste any time to take a Mechanoid and crush it in between him and the grenade.

A m.u.f.fled explosion was heard and Jin took out his pistol to fire at the incoming Rebel Mechanoids who thought they could take this grenade as an opportunity to rush. Since Jin was near the ground, Yinn and Diaz moved forward and emptied their rounds, not allowing them to come near a single bit,

"50 seconds!" Click exclaimed as she hid behind the debris as cover to attack the remaining rebel Mechanoids who had escaped Jin's ma.s.sacre and reached outside to deal with his leftover squad. But they did not realise that they were as formidable as the members dealing with their comrades.

Tellie, who had been on overwatch the entire time had finally been able to clear her trigger itch by knocking each and every one of them who came out of the underground tunnel. Click, who was merely providing suppressive fire, was feeling a.s.sured that she had such a capable teammate who was able to deal the killing blow since those Mechanoids were merciless in releasing their bullets onto her location.

The underground team finally reached the room and it was not even locked. However, the door was no doubt heavy enough that it would not allow the kids who were stuck behind it to be able to get out.

The Rebel Commanders were following the development of the firefight closely and they were relieved that the Empire hit squad was not aiming for them right now, giving them time to reinforce their temporary command room with proper cover. They did not send out any more Rebel Mechanoids as they decided it was easier for them to hole in a single large room where the a.s.saulters would have a lesser chance to survive.

But they did not know that Jin's objective was never about the rebels and it gave them the time needed to make the escape along with the remaining prisoners. "Grey Bear Squad from the Empire. We are here to rescue you." Jin said but had no idea what the proper official designation for their team was.

"Grey Bear Squad? I never heard about you before. Are you performing this operation with the Empire Duke Guards?" One of the kids said and it was from the one who looked the closest to the Archduke's child. When Yinn heard it, she was not sure whether Jin was just one lucky b.a.s.t.a.r.d or the kid was merely highly fascinated with the Empire soldiers.

"No. But we have no time to discuss this before this tunnel network collapses. Either you quietly follow us and get information later or stuck here dying with your curiosity quenched." Jin grabbed him and the other two remaining kids followed. He then realised that the kid's arm had been partially sc.r.a.ped and slightly festering.

"Don't tell meyou" Jin looked at him as he felt the pain from being pulled by Jin.

"As the Archduke's son, I have to do my part to protect my fellow people." the kid said and the other two were slightly embarra.s.sed they were unable to do anything..

"You might not be able to use this hand in the future for protecting these two," Jin said as he decided to carry him instead.

"I will get my revenge in the future. Besides, our technology would be able to get me a decent enough arm replacement. I have nothing to worry,"

"This kid does not seem to fit the stereotype of a nasty n.o.ble kid." Diaz joked and it seemed like humans everywhere had similar perceptions no matter their parallel worlds.

"The temperature monitor stated that he is having a fever, he needs medical attention." Yinn did a quick scan and was able to reveal that he was not doing well despite putting up such a brave front.

"10 seconds to overload!" Click shouted through the Tactical System which made Yinn move to the front without expecting an answer from the previous a.n.a.lysis.

"Sir," Yinn said as she took out a foldable ballistic s.h.i.+eld and started to move while their commander was literally holding the kids back.

"Let's get going."

No sooner than a few steps later, the underground team could indeed hear an explosion, but they did not panic and attempted to dash out of the underground tunnels. To their surprise, there was no one except dead mechanical bodies allowing them to move out without any hiccups.

"Coming out, beware of friendlies." Yinn reported through the Tactical System in case Tellie and Click 'accidentally' fired towards them.

"Everyone is out now !" Diaz shouted as she was the last to come out of the area.

"Click, do your job!" Jin said and Click was elated to complete the orders. With a click of a b.u.t.ton, the C4s that had been installed around the partially collapsed entrance did their job and caused a full closure of the area, not allowing any of the trapped soldiers to emerge.

"Now all we have to do is to let the overloaded machine do its job...while I shall attempt to do mine." Jin said as he laid the child down who finally succ.u.mbed to the fever now that he is in safe hands.
