Chapter 1567 Counterattack Against Diamondz -Part 12
"Commander!" The Grey Bear Squad Members shouted once the cloned scorpion Mechanoid finally laid Jin on the 36th floor with a pillar as a cover while the rest of the spider Mechanoids came crawling out of the hole.
Click and Tellie saw the condition their commander was in as he was spewing blood out from his mouth and he was huffing for air. If veteran combatants were to see his condition, they probably would want to put his life out of misery.
"Why did you do something so dumb!" Click said as she suddenly felt guilty for being incompetent and now it felt like they were stuck in a seemingly hopeless situation.
*Cough!* "Do not *Cough!* worry..." Jin huffed and puffed as he struggled to pull his arm up and showed the bullet wound to them. The two Grey Bears were astonished as they saw the wound continued to bleed but the bullet tip was coming out by itself.
"What are you…" Tellie asked as if she began to doubt the identity of Jin, partially thinking that their commander was a mythical being rather than a homo sapien from another universe. But what they did not realise was that Jin was currently experiencing excruciating pain as the wounds continued to close. They thought the wounds were just that painful for him.
"Just protect me. I need time to- *urgh cough* Need time to heal." Jin said as he heaved his legs closer to him so that the pillar he was hiding at, would not cause him to be exposed. "Tellie… take charge of the fight for now…" Jin said as he closed his eyes to tolerate the pain of recovery.
The sniper of the team nodded her head and immediately stared at Click. "Do what you wanted to do on the 35th floor. You should have more than enough space to work with right here without much interference." Tellie said as she picked up Jin's P90 assault rifle. The commander quietly nodded his head, signalling to Tellie to do whatever she needed to do.
Tellie returned the nod as she surveyed the room despite the spider Mechanoids already taking up the entire room to dominate their space so that they can have the advantage. Jin risking his life to allow them to come out of that enclosed area was the right choice since the current area they were in was something akin to a resting area for the employees.
High ceilings, wide space with lots of tables and chairs for temporary cover and more importantly access to the windows. If shit goes south, they can at least break out of the building and cause a bigger ruckus.
Surely by now the police and perhaps even soldiers would come to reinforce the headquarters, especially after how Click had exploded the headquarters with a small amount of C4 and mixed it with some other volatile materials Old Fammet left lying around to make it look extremely flashy. All the fancy presentations but no pow to it since the terrorists still prefer to fight in a stable building than an unstable one.
At the very worst, Tellie can leak the battle to the streets and let the police and insect Mechanoids clash with each other, especially since Mechanoids that were not human shaped in nature would present as a threat to others.
Also, considering how much of the knowledge of the soldiers and Mechanoids they had absorbed through the System, there was none of them who had any idea with regards to this. All they knew was that there were a ton of Mechanoids in reserve in the armoury area and the security staff were always complaining how irritating it was to keep those Mechanoids in check, as if they were maintenance people rather than doing security work.
Seeing how the cloned scorpion Mechanoids were delaying as many spider Mechanoids to emerge from the bottom of the hole Jin created, it was the primary target of the spider Mechanoids who managed to come out of it. Instead of webs, rifles attached near their torso fired off sniper rifle rounds, damaging the scorpion carapace easily. However, the cloned scorpion Mechanoid was still smart enough to use the scorpion which he was fighting against as the shield preventing some attacks.
Unfortunately, it was not going to last and both the Grey Bears know it. They had to take this time which the clones were giving them to the best of their abilities. As Tellie attempted to move to higher ground, Click was running around the cafeteria throwing out metal blocks on at every intervals using the upgrade card that she had used earlier when she was down on the 35th floor.
Like what Page had described Click to be, the combat engineer was able to create items of limited quantities within her. The backpack which she had obtained was no ordinary bag and instead it was a module which enabled her to create those items with ease and with faster manufacturing time.
All she needed was to throw some junk metal like the left over carapace that the scorpions and spider Mechanoids left when they were killed and the backpack would convert it with the nanobots working 24/7 within it. With the System upgrade, some of the metal had been converted into more delicate parts which enabled a more sophisticated item to be created instead of just spare Mechanoid parts or ammunition.
And those metal blocks were the product of what the upgrade card was supposed to do. They were stationary assault rifle drones capable of searching the target and firing a heck load of bullets at their enemies before they are spent.
With the excessive metal carapace which Click managed to procure before coming up to the 36th floor, the assault rifle drones were decked out with a hefty amount of ammunition, enabling it to last like a heavy machine gun for a few minutes before its 3D printed barrel melt down or when its down to the very last ammunition clip.
Thus, even though there were only two Grey Bear Mechanoids, the presence of multiple assault rifle drones made it feel as if there were approximately ten over Mechanoids working together to bring down their target. Also, not to mention, the System had finally analysed the spider and scorpion Mechanoids body structure and were already uploading the weak points to the assault rifle drone AIs, allowing them to shoot smartly while emptying their ammunition clip mercilessly.
This was the payback that Click had prepared.
