Survivor League Survival Valley
The Survivor Alliance's 2nd Special Independent Action Squad
Sergeant Patrick Flo
The moment Audrey in the scope disappeared, Patrick turned on the overload, and suddenly found that the butt of the HK416c was straight up to the door.
He hurriedly raised his left hand to block, and at the same time pulled the gun with his right hand and turned around, turned the muzzle, and pulled the trigger. However, Audrey moved a step faster, ducking her head to avoid Patrick's strafing.
Patrick suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and quickly turned sideways, and a sharp military thorn slashed through his abdomen. Eating this knife at an overloaded speed, there is no doubt that Patrick's internal organs will be cut out.
Seeing that the attack was unsuccessful, Audrey slipped under Patrick's armpit and left the room.
"Let her run. Patrick shut down the overload, recovering from the severe side effects while communicating with the madness.
"At least you stopped her assassination," said the madman, "for the sake of our purpose, we were successful, for the time being. β
Patrick snorted, raised his rifle indifferently, and walked out of the mess.
"Madness, help me track down Audrey's location. β
"Roger. I don't think she's a threat anymore, and before I find her, you should pay attention to the defenses inside the base, and there are a lot of iron and blood coming out of the abandoned underground passages. β
"Iron Will?" Patrick whispered, "I see. β
If McWeiss joins forces with the adjudicators, it all makes sense. It was no accident that she knew the inner workings of the Survival Valley base, and that the adjudicators always got what she wantedβeven though they only had a one-sided relationship, Patrick had long known the horrors of the Iron Girl.
"G41, protect VIP. β
"Yes, master!"
He ran down the stairs, and as soon as he turned out of the hallway, he saw a green beam of light hit the guard. Shooting in the direction of the beam, the rifle bullet pierced through a silver helmet, red liquid staining the cracked glass panel of the helmet.
For a second, Patrick was keenly aware of some discord, but the ensuing iron-blooded humanoid forced him to focus on the fight.
Two iron-blooded figures wielding submachine guns opened fire on Patrick, who had to hide back in the hallway with his back against the wall. He pondered how to solve the problem at hand. The humanoid's mechanized legs provide them with excellent mobility, but in narrow corridors, such a design does not have much advantage, and excessive noise also reveals their whereabouts.
Patrick listened for a few seconds, and was soon able to guess roughly what the girls were doing as they were programmed. He threw a grenade outward, which bounced off the wall and landed right at the feet of the two iron-blooded humanoids. There was an explosion, and the beam shooting in the hallway stopped.
The underground passages that have been invaded by iron and blood must be sealed. Patrick recalls the former Survival Valley base and uses his memory to find the base's groundwater treatment hub. Standing in the doorway stood two shield-wielding iron-blooded figures, armed with beam pistols with bayonets. This iron-blooded humanoid called the gendarmerie is a humanoid that specializes in oppressing the front, and it also performs well in defense.
Iron Will has set up the processing center as a stronghold, from which attacking troops are entering the survival valley base.
Patrick, aided by a red dot sight, aimed at the head of one of the gendarmes, pulled the trigger, and the target fell. He rushed at another gendarme, who raised his shield and shot at him, and Patrick, dodging two bullets, rushed in front of the gendarme. The gendarme's shield is as fragile as a piece of paper under the impact of the mechanical arm, and it is directly dented and scrapped, and the gendarme who dropped the shield wants to raise his gun to fight back, but the bullet in the chamber of the gun in front of his forehead is always faster.
Patrick then picked up the shield on the ground, which was still intact, pulled the Desert Eagle MK-II from the holster with his right hand, and stepped into the groundwater treatment center. The first bullet shattered the heart of a grenadier, and the sound of the trigger of a beam weapon in the basement was the first to be heard. The scorching beam struck the shield, causing it to glow red. However, Patrick calmly shot one by one, first the humanoid with the minigun, and then the grenadier and other humanoids one by one.
Swapping out the magazine and continuing to shoot, Patrick finally cleared the basement, took out the Valkyrie grenade launcher, and aimed for the exit of the underground passage.
With a loud "boom", the underground passage collapsed.
"Thorn 02-2 reports, the enemy's underground intrusion point has been sealed off, is there still Iron Blood around?"
"Just leave some of the remaining troops to the other guards. "I've found where that yellow-haired girl is, and I'm uploading images." β
In the lower left corner of Patrick's view, surveillance footage shows Audrey exchanging gunfire with the guards of Survival Valley.
The location is the airport in Survival Valley, and unless she drives all the way overloaded, she can't run that fast.
"Madness, tell the infantry who had exchanged fire with him to withdraw immediately, and I will go over now. β
"Roger. β
Madness was about to switch communication channels when a murmur entered the communicator between the two.
"Before that," the deep bass knew it was Carlyle, but that didn't mean anything good was happening, "I need you to check Audrey Assuna's AED first, Thorn 02-3." β
"Understood, the system is using the authorization code to enter the target device......" The frenzied sound was transmitted into Patrick's auditory receptors along with the sound of keyboard tapping.
Jumping over the railing and jumping down half a floor, Patrick quickly shot and killed the rebels who tried to sneak in.
"Oh, oops. β
"What's wrong?" asked Patrick.
"Her AED device is no different from yours," said the madman, "except that the system has a simple self-destruct device, which can only be triggered from the outside world using a special starter. β
"It's in Montreal's hands," Carlyle said categorically, "and out of his perverted psychology of controlling Audrey, he added this program so that he could destroy Audrey if someone else took her." β
Patrick's heart tightened. It's ridiculous.
"And the program is pretty ...... Rather clumsy," Madness continued, adding, "Unprofessional programs developed by unprofessionals often have loopholes, and this vulnerability happened to be discovered by McWeis......"
"It's not just that, madness," Carlyle corrected, "McWeiss knew it was going to exist, and he'd take advantage of it as a last resort." β
"What happens when this program starts?" asked Patrick. He's still on his way to the airport.
There was no sound in the communicator for a moment.
"Actually...... It's just a simple procedure to release the collapsed fluid concentrated in the AED device, but you also know how much collapsed fluid is concentrated in that tube in your spinal cord for long-term combat. β
That is, Audrey is carrying a small shifter on her back.
And Patrick knew that once they left the AED device, they had nothing but a dead end.
"Yes," Patrick said, "tell the base to prepare radiation precautions." β
It seemed that fate was expecting a dramatic ending, and Patrick's journey to the airport was unhindered.
The sun was scorching, and there was only one corpse and blood stain in the airport, and Audrey Assuna in the center of the stage.
She knew I was coming.
Audrey saw Patrick, removed her blood-stained mask, dropped her smoking rifle, smiled as best she could, and spread her arms.
"She's committed all her crimes and is mired in war for only one reason," a voice said, "you." β
Patrick slowly stepped forward, accepted Audrey's hug, and reciprocated in the same way, gently wrapping his arms around her.
"You know what you're supposed to do. β
"I'm sorry ......"
The cold manipulator firmly grasped the AED device on Audrey's back through the combat suit, and ripped it off violently. Patrick's eyes opened, and there was not only a device full of sin, but also crimson blood in his hand.
The force exerted on his back is fading, and his shoulders are getting heavier and heavier.
"Thank you...... Thank you......" she whispered.
Rest in peace. Whether it's McWeiss or McCroft, I'm going to kill them with my own hands, kill them with my own hands. And then I will meet you, in a world without distractions.
"Audrey...... Like...... You ......"
There was no more even breathing in my ears.
Drops of water ran across the boy's pale face.
