Chapter 7: Counterattack

Mottled walls, shattered floors, out-of-control fire sprinklers, and filthy, sticky artificial blood.

It's muddy everywhere, it's a mess everywhere.

Fragments of oil paintings were trampled by military boots and mixed with muddy water. Porcelain and plaster statues were also spared, reduced to detritus everywhere.

"How much longer?"

The intruder's command headquarters was outside of Griffin's headquarters.

Due to the large-scale use of humanoids, there was no need for the commanders to be on the scene.

[5 minutes]

"It's too slow, a little faster. ”

[Understood]

Like Krut, the commander of the attacking side was in contact with the adjutant. Through the vehicle's surveillance system, he kept talking to his humanoids while reporting to his superior, the commander-in-chief of the 'Fenrir' mercenary group.

"The first floor has been pressed and completed. ”

"The top layer has been pressed. ”

"Good, that's it. ”

In order to capture Griffin's southeastern base, the Fenrir mercenary group sent almost all of its main force.

From the Basque Commander-in-Chief downward, Fenrir's six tactical squads have gathered five. In order to ensure success, they brought almost all technical and tactical equipment.

There were five commanders, twenty-five humanoids, and nearly 300 wingmen.

Because of the limited number of optical stealth devices available and the fact that they are not easy to use in groups, Fenrir arranges the order of attack to be a standard wave attack.

First, the humanoid troops equipped with stealth devices will approach the Griffin's base, reach the roof of the building and the area where the hole is planned, and then detonate the bomb, and let the regular troops without stealth devices follow up while the vanguard forces secure the 'entrance'.

The progress of the program has been very successful.

Although the losses were large, it was all expected.

After all, the opponent is the old lion, and if it could be solved so easily, he wouldn't be alive now.

"Go on the offensive. ”

"Yes. ”

How long can you hold out?

Basque sat in a chair, his legs crossed. Scarlet electronic prosthetic eyes shone with an ominous light.

Like Klut, the Basque Country is not very young. The grudge between the two people began to accumulate a long time ago, and today, they have long been enemies of life and death.

But that wasn't a reason for Fenrir to attack, even though the two hated each other. But they're professionals – they don't influence the team based on their personal likes and dislikes. Instead, they will be driven by interests and cooperate with each other.

Is Griffin's base a secret?

Of course not.

Not only did their base not be hidden, but it was registered in the open. Anyone can find the address of Griffin's Southeast Branch by buying a digital map.

But until today, this is the first time that this base has been invaded.

What does this prove?

It proves that this base is not 'can't be hit', but 'no need to fight'.

And today, when Fenrir needed to hit this base, it was also beaten.

Because they need 'Alice?Kaguya', because their employer needs this big lady. In order to keep the heir of the clan in his own hands, a certain gentleman who is inconvenient to reveal his name is willing to pay a staggering sum of money.

A huge sum of money that drove Fenrir crazy.

"It's okay to die all of them inside, but someone has to catch me, understand?"

"Yes!!"

Amid Basque laughter, the front-line figures launched a new round of attacks.

……

……

Speaking of the feud with the Basque Country, the story goes back decades.

In the days before Griffin was formed and Fenrir did not exist, Klut and Basque were both members of the stateless force 'NeedLess'.

Klut was the best striker in the unit, while Basque was a fireman. Under the leadership of Elder Reybil, the NeedLess forces have solved many international crises – and whenever a country needs a reliable armed force and it is not convenient to do it themselves, NeedLess has the opportunity to get a job.

A rewarding job.

During the years of fighting together, there was a huge disagreement between Klute and the Basque. Although equally faithful, the Basque style is very repulsive.

He is a 'humanist through and through' with great malice towards the human form. On more than one occasion, Kluet has been seen attacking humanoids, even though they are harmless civilian humanoids, even resembling young girls. The Basque Country, however, still struck the killers and smashed them with excitement on his face.

Klute and Basque fought over it until Basque was reprimanded by his superiors and expelled from the NeedLess forces, becoming truly an unwanted person.

And even so, the Basque Country has not changed.

Although he no longer used humanoids, he used them on a large scale after founding Griffin. But those who know the Basque Country well know that he is not correcting his mistake and treating the human form as a human being. Instead, it has become more extreme, and even humans are not in sight.

In simple terms, he is one step closer to the terrorists.

"Fenrir......"

Whispering an hateful name, Klute enters the battlefield. The bullets of the steel core could not penetrate his armor, ping-pong, and sparks bloomed in vain.

“…… It's not a small amount of courage. ”

The location is the staircase on the second floor, and it is Fenrir's heavily armored humanoid who attacks from below. Cold, steel-like humanoid weapons clad in heavy armor and lined up in shields like the infantry of ancient Rome.

Grenades falling in the air, grenades being fired in close proximity, and continuous blasts of wind crashing into Griffin's defenses, making the shooting environment extremely harsh.

While the design of the staircase was good for the defense, it was also relative - although Griffin did not hesitate to throw in incendiary grenades, grenades, and C4 explosives. But for a sturdy humanoid, none of these obstacles can be called fatal.

The continuous wave attacks like a tidal wave put tremendous pressure on Griffin's defenses, and the continuous explosions not only caused serious damage to the staircase, but also created a large amount of smoke and dust in the stairwell.

At one point, the enemy took advantage of this surprise attack and almost went into hand-to-hand combat, but Kluter arrived just right - with his appearance as a giant, the entire line of defense was re-established.

"Lose my treasure!!Little Bunny!!"

Klute roared and pulled the trigger and burst out of makeshift bunker - the makeshift line of bookcases and steel plates undoubtedly came from his office, and just a moment ago, he saw a bullet shatter the plank and kick up a cloud of confetti.

Klute loves movies, but he also loves books.

Therefore, people who do not love books, especially those who do not love his books, will definitely not end well.

The button was snapped and the machine gun was activated.

The roaring line of fire whipped the ground like a steel whip, and the configuration of mixing one tracer bullet every three rounds made the bright yellow lines stand out.

Although it is also a light machine gun, Kluet's light machine gun is only light on caliber - unlike a normal machine gun that can only fire 'universal ammunition', Klutt's guy can use two types of ammunition.

As it is a weapon specifically designed for power armor, the machine gun can switch back and forth between two magazines, one of which is loaded with universal ammo. That is, the middle power bullet with a reduced charge, while the other magazine is filled with a full-power armor-piercing bullet, a type of ammunition that can be shot through even lightly armored vehicles, and the cost and power are equally amazing.

Now, the bullet fired by Klut is undoubtedly the latter of them.

The serpent-like bullets bit through shields and armor, exploding blood in the enemy's humanoid bodies.

In the blink of an eye, the battle was won and lost, and power armor was like an infantry fighting vehicle for infantry. Fenrir's human form was slaughtered at this moment, and three rows of human figures were annihilated like targets—Kluet's steel whip whipped over their bodies, tearing them into two pieces of rotten flesh.

"Follow me!!"

Klut roared and continued to move on, refiring with the shotgun on his left wrist - filled with terrifying single-headed shotguns that could smash a humanoid's strongest head with a single shot. Many of the half-body figures that were still trying to struggle were used by Kluet, while the Fenrir figures who tried to pull out the C4 and cluster grenades were continued to be suppressed by the light machine guns, unable to even get closer.

"Is that what you can do!!"

The C4 is the only weapon that can deal damage to Kluet, but it doesn't always work.

The perfect armor cushioning design allows Klut to ignore most explosion damage - as long as it is not a 155 shell exploding nearby, Kluter's armor provides ample protection.

Something like C4 is meaningless unless it's directly attached to Kluet's body, or has the weight of an IED.

Can a Fenrir do such a thing?

It might have been possible for Kluet to do it alone, but when figures such as the IWS and M590 were close behind, providing adequate fire support, all of this would have been wishful thinking.

Dense firepower forms a formidable network that sweeps down the enemies who are charging away one by one. Even if one or two of the occasional fish slipped through the net and tried to blow themselves up with fearlessness—it didn't make sense, and Klut would immediately activate the cutting torch and cut the lovely humanoid lady in two pieces and burn it to slag.

This was something that Basque had never imagined – after all, when Klute was still in the NeedLess Army, his equipment was nowhere near as fancy as it is now. The technique was not as terrifying as it is now.

Although he heard that this 'old lion' is still serving on the battlefield today, Basque never imagined that his 'service' would be so intense.

He would have thought that Klut was just a little more radical than the average commander, armed at the front command. He never imagined that Kluet, who was older than himself and about to enter old age, would be stronger than when he was younger.

What is it like?

Playing heavy armor without HE, driving the Iron King Eight with AP hard, I originally wanted to play hard with the car and eat hard, but it didn't come to fruition: the opposite squad leader is a zoo with a wrong level, and the scene is very embarrassing for a while.

What does it take to hit Klut?

Anti-tank missiles, even if they don't, the last RPG is still a bit promising - although Kluter's power armor comes with an electromagnetic armor system and a built-in grille buffer, the RPG is actually not very effective.

But that's better than it is now, isn't it?

Who has heard about blowing up tank armor with grenades, isn't that a joke.

However, it is too late to regret it now.

The battlefield is such a simple and straightforward place, and there are not so many 'I didn't expect it, I still have a second form' moths.

If you haven't fought, you haven't fought, if you're not ready, you're not ready, and if you're arrogant, you're arrogant.

Basque didn't expect Klut's suit to be so powerful - after all, it was the first time that this thing had been in Klut's hands since it was distributed. Therefore, his strategies against ordinary people have been declared bankrupt by now.

[Apply for anti-armor fire support, repeat, the enemy has a heavily armored unit, and our firepower cannot pose a threat to it]

The alarms of the front-line humanoids were transmitted to Fenrir's command vehicle via a communication link.

Basque listened to the constant reports of injuries, and bruises were already forming on his forehead.

"Don't think it's just you, Klut, don't think it's just you. ”

Basque, who was no longer as strong as he was when he was young and bloated, roared angrily in his seat, and his terrifying aura was permeated in the closed command car.

"Let MKII play!

But the Basque Country still has hole cards.

He also had five commanders who were not sent.

Equipped with expensive heavy power armor, they are the units that can pose a threat to Kluet.

This is his strongest strength, and its last, the true essence of Fenrir.

When the Basque Country condenses this power into an iron fist and swings it into the battlefield - it only proves that one thing has happened.

……

……

……

He can't afford to lose.
