For the secrets that friends want to tell, people have strategies that have to be awakened, and there are voices that cannot die. Many moments of interlaced memories, remembering instinct at the same time, the wings spread in the red lotus hell

"The same mess [Same.Shit.Different.Day]

Day 3 – Unitary Hour (1935 Standard Time)

Captain Reisen, Yuzukain, and Inaba.

2nd Motorized Infantry Brigade of the Combined Army, 75th Ranger Regiment, 1st Special Reconnaissance Company.

Location: Yokai Mountain

Abandoned buildings, walls full of cracks and bullet holes, floors strewn with all sorts of messy debris. Outside, there was the rumbling sound of artillery fire, and the occasional flash of fire lit up the reddened night sky outside the window.

Today, Yokai Mountain has been lit up by the flames of war, and from the foot of the mountain to Moriya Shrine, gunshots and explosions are everywhere.

“This.is.1st.Force.Recon.75th.Ranger.Regiment！ Overlord，Do.You.Copy！？ (Here is the 75 Ranger Regiment, the 1st Special Reconnaissance Company.) Overlord, please answer if you hear me! )”

"Zizi Zizizi"

“This.is.1st.Force.Recon.75th.Ranger.Regiment！ Overlord，Do.You.Copy！？ (Here is the 75 Ranger Regiment, the 1st Special Reconnaissance Company.) Overlord, please answer if you hear me! )”

"Zizi Zizizi"

There was still a meaningless murmur on the radio.

Suddenly took off the radio that was in her ear, and the purple-haired girl with rabbit ears raised her head and looked at her companions around her.

"Alright! I have good news and bad news here."

“”

No one answered, and everyone sorted out their guns on their own. Everyone is completely used to it, and there is never really good news anyway.

"Well, the good news is that everyone here is still sound in their hands and feet, and at the same time, the guns in their hands are in good condition, and the ammunition is quite sufficient." Reizen looked at the unresponsive crowd and continued to speak.

"The bad news is that we have lost contact with HQ (headquarters) and there are at least a dozen dozen (12 dozen) tin cans outside that surround us, and we can only talk with bullets."

"So we're trapped here?" Sergeant Yuriko said faintly.

In the platoon led by Reixian, Yuriko is already the highest rank holder among the remaining people besides her.

"Being able to speak at least proves that we haven't shut up like the dead"

"Listen, don't think about it when you defend your homeland, just think about the object of your unrequited love. Be sure to remind yourself that you must come back alive and see her sweet smile again. In this case, it doesn't matter if we are jealous of the boring gods, there are still well-meaning demons who are protecting us. ”

Reizen, who noticed that the atmosphere was starting to be wrong, immediately spoke.

"Captain, in that case, Kanako-sama will be angry."

"We're fighting this group of prayer objects right now! Let's just go and join the Demon King Army together. ”

Suddenly, a murmur erupted in the room.

"I'm sorry," Reisen put her finger to her lips, motioning for everyone to be quiet, and tiptoed towards the window.

The Rangers, who realized the captain's move, immediately took up their weapons and took up their positions.

'Crunch squeak'

The distinctive sounds produced by the robots as they move indicate that they are very close.

"We're not stupid!!" After saying that, Reisen smashed the window next to him with the butt of his gun, and then the rifle sprayed a fierce tongue of fire out of the window.

“Contact.Left！！！ Contact.Right！！ (Left-hand firefight!) Crossfire on the right! ）”

For a while, there was a loud burst of gunfire, and more than a dozen beams of fire shot out of the building.

But soon, they were greeted with great enthusiasm.

“Reloading！！！ (Reload!) Cover me!! ）”

“Sergeant！ Your, Two.O'Wu (Sergeant, your 2 o'clock hmm)"

The unfinished words were replaced by a muffled snort, and two bloody arrows erupted from the back of the shouting ranger, and his body fell to the ground weakly after a brief convulsion for a moment.

With the sound of glass shattering, a dense stream of bullets entered through the window, leaving black bullet holes in the not-so-solid building.

“We.got.man.down！ (We've had some fall!) ）”

Sergeant Yuriko with one of her soldiers crouched down and tried to drag the struck ranger, whose fate was unknown, to a safer place behind.

'Bang! ’

A dull sound echoed in the sergeant's ears, and a bright red sprayed out of the Ranger helmet that was traveling with him. The soldier, whose eyes were still blank, collapsed weakly to the ground.

“Holy· Shit！ Sergeant Yuriko let out a low curse and immediately raised her gun and fired back at the window.

“MG！！ Right.Side.Suppression.Fire！！！ (Machine gun right flank fire suppression!! Reisen shouted loudly to the Rangers, who were overwhelmed by the barrage.

"They're trying to get in from the stairs on the right!"

'Bang Dang'

There were a few sounds of glass shattering from upstairs, followed by the heavy sound of something falling on the floor.

"Damn, this kind of place is equipped with airborne troops!" Reizen, who looked up at the ceiling, said in a hateful voice.

"Captain, what should I do?" Sergeant Yuriko, who came to her side, asked.

"You take three people to guard the corridor, we can't manage so much at the moment!"

As Reisen said, there are only 15 people left in the building, and they are isolated, and they have no time to ensure that the building is contained.

"Understood!" Yuriko turned to the other side and shouted.

"Mayumi, Miho, Mao! Come with me!! ”

At the moment when Yuriko left with the three of them, a tiny flash of fire flashed in the corner of Reisen's eyes.

“Stay· Down！！ (Get down!!) ）”

After shouting these words with all her strength, Reisen fell to the ground in the opposite direction of the window, protecting the back of her head with her hands.

'Boom Boom'

The next moment, a continuous roar sounded over everyone's heads.

THE 15.5MM MACHINE GUN EASILY TORE THE WINDOWS APART FROM THE SURROUNDING WALLS. Rubble and shards of glass rained down and smashed on the Rangers on the ground.

"This is Overlord, the first company of the 75th Ranger Regiment, please answer when you hear it!?"

At this fateful moment, the radios installed on the two rabbit ears on Reizen's head began to sound.

"Damn, we need air support now!!" In order to suppress the violent gunfire in his ears, Reizen shouted desperately.

“Negative！ (Negative!) There was a very dry refusal over the radio.

"All air units are on interception missions, and the command has given an order for a missile-covered attack on your area, and you're almost overwhelmed by enemy forces."

"Are those bastards at the headquarters telling us to die!?"

"I'd love to admit your question, but unfortunately a helicopter will be hovering tactically from the roof of your building. You've got two minutes to get to the roof."

"2 minutes!?" Reizen was slightly stunned, and then immediately scolded.

“WowRight,you.must.be.！ (You must be me!) ）”

"If this understanding makes you feel better, don't miss this precious last train. Overlord.out！ ”

“What.a.f*ck.ass.hole！ (I understand it myself)" Reisen showed a stunned look, obviously the other party was stunned by the other party's outrageous answer.

But he soon came to his senses and immediately got up. As the body floats, thick stone chips and glass chips slide off the body.

"Captain, they're in!!"

Gunfire began to rage inside.

"Leave them alone! Inform Yuriko that we must be on the roof of the building within 120 seconds to turn into a commando formation!! ”

"Yes"

“Move.your.ass！ Ranger！！ Right！ Now！ (Get moving, Rangers!) Right now! Immediately! "Now is not the time to explain, they are racing against the less than 120 seconds.

Bullets weave through the corridors.

“Clear！ (Clear)

The Rangers quickly captured the hallway where only piles of wreckage remained.

“Check.that.corner！ (Watch the corners!) ）”

However, the Ranger, who had just reached the corner of the stairs, was pierced through his body by a series of orange fires.

“Shit！”

Reizen rushed straight up, turning into a purple light and shadow, quickly shuttling between the not spacious corridors. The bullets followed the purple figure in rapid direction, leaving a series of bullet holes in the wall.

'Click~~'

Reizen, who came to the bipedal robot, blocked the muzzle of the gun that was spewing fire with one hand, and inserted the other hand directly into the cable around the robot's neck.

The powerful inertia knocks the robot to the ground, and Reisen rolls into the air, bringing out a severed energy pipe from the robot's arm.

A string of electric sparks exploded in a scorching fire the moment it came into contact with the ice blue energy.

"We're running out of time! Quick action!! ”

After landing on the ground, Reisen yelled at the group behind him, and everyone could already hear the loud sound of the propeller spinning rapidly above their heads.

"2-1, 75 Ranger Regiment! We've reached the landing site, what's the situation with you guys!? Sure enough, there was an anxious rush over the radio.

"We're on our way! The enemy's iron bumps are following closely! ”

"Ah~~ I think I've seen you!" The pilot of the helicopter had seen a figure enter through the entrance to the rooftop.

"Quick! Fast! Fast!! Reisen, who had finally reached the rooftop, took a shooting pose towards the entrance to the rooftop, and waved an arm to signal the people behind him to go straight over.

"Quick! Miho, Mao! ”

Just as Reisen yelled at the two of them who were running towards the stairs, a dense stream of bullets flew from behind them.

Blood red flew out of the front of the two men's chests, and then fell to the top of the stairs.

"Damn it!"

"Captain! No time!! ”

"I know the way!" Reizen gritted his teeth and stepped into the helicopter quickly.

The next moment, the helicopter ascended rapidly, and at the same time flew as fast as possible in the direction it came.

"Give me the M134!" Snatched the 12.7mm heavy machine gun from the helicopter's side directly from Yuriko's hands.

"Okay, let's look good now!" Reizen, who showed a sneer, pressed the button in his hand.

The sound of the 'woo-woo' wheel warming up and spinning carries a distinctive roar.

'Buzz'

A long tongue of fire erupted, and the ceiling of the original building collapsed under the impact of large-caliber bullets, and the roof lost its target when it rushed out of the roof, and the robot that was spinning in a daze suddenly collapsed.

"Look!" I don't know who shouted.

I saw a ray of light in the sky.

'Boom~~Boom~~~~'

Swollen fires rose from the ground, engulfing everything they touched.

"Hold on!!"

The shock air from the ground caused the helicopter to shake violently, and the cabin began to sound annoying sirens frantically.

"Damn! I hate that feeling! ”

There's no reason anyone would like it, especially Reisen.

This scene always reminded her of many unpleasant memories, but the reality made her have to face it again and again.

Finally, the helicopter that had rushed through the air flow stopped shaking.

"Overlord, this is 2-1, and we're heading along the return course towards Moriya Shrine."

"This is Overlord, 2-1, please change course immediately! The headquarters has been transferred, and it is now cut off by enemy troops, which is very dangerous"

Without being reminded by the command, more than a dozen bright fires rose from the woods on the ground and flew in the direction of the helicopter.

“RPG！！”

The captain subconsciously turned the joystick, and at the same time pulled the height lifting lever at hand.

The helicopter made a 360° translation flip in the air, dragging the warhead of the blazing flame as if it were grazing over the helicopter's tail.

“F*ck！” The cabin was yelled at by the stragglers.

"Alright, ladies, don't panic, we've just entered air combat mode!" The captain sounded over the radio with a hint of madness.

However, before he could finish speaking, the helicopter suddenly stretched upward.

"Beware of the Stinger !!"

Two flashes of fire followed from behind.

"Oh~~~ missile!" The captain's frantic voice continued to roar in everyone's ears.

"That's how we deal with the Air Force!" Quickly turned off the power switch on the top row, only to see the helicopter flying in the sky, the propeller quickly reduced the rotation speed, and the helicopter that lost power suddenly fell down.

Looking out the window, two missiles flew straight past the helicopter.

"Everyone! Hold on!! ”

The sudden feeling of weightlessness made everyone in the cabin feel their hearts skip a beat.

"Quick, quick, baby, I know you can do it!!" The captain quickly restarted the lost power system, and his mouth kept repeating such thoughts.

"!!!!Oooo With the captain's frantic yelling, the propeller began to spin again.

"Now let's go home!"

"Hmm" However, there was a dizzy sound in the cabin.

"Oh, I'm starting to miss the ground that might have been surrounded by enemies now." Yuriko kept rubbing the temples of her cheeks, and her face turned pale.

"I finally know why someone is willing to come to our rescue." Reizen's face is not good-looking.

I'm afraid no one will be willing to save them except such a mad driver.

At this moment, the helicopter was again shaken by a strong air current.

Several rays of light flew past the helicopter with a sharp whistling sound, and immediately after, a ball of fire rose from the ground.

"Hey!! This is my territory! "If it weren't for the fact that this was a helicopter cockpit, maybe the pilot would have stuck his middle finger out the window.

"Overlord, it's 2-1, tell these air teams to pay attention, it's too close!!"

"This is the Overlord, please wait a minute, the people of the air team are not talking right now"

“What！！？ What do you mean by not being able to speak!? Not only the driver, but even Reisen was stunned.

"Fuck the air team, I thought they were pretty good!"

It must be said that the ground forces are full of crow's beaks.

Soon, several fireballs exploded in the air.

"This is Overlord, 2-1, the retreating troops of Shouya Shrine are being pinned down by enemy forces, I hope you can provide some support from the air."

"Damn, we need support now!" Reisen roared as if venting.

The M134 in his hand has begun to emit a slight smoke, and the orange-yellow bullet chain is frantically shooting towards the ground, and one after another explosions are rising in the forest, but even so, RPGs and surface-to-air missiles are still flying out of the forest.

'Boom~~'

With a small roar, the helicopter shook.

"Doodoo"

The sound of a hurried siren echoed in my ears.

"What's going on!?"

"The tail was hit by a large-caliber bullet, but it can still fly!!" The driver shouted without looking back.

“Shit！！” The driver who had just finished shouting scolded fiercely, and at the same time slapped the console very roughly.

Obviously, the damage just now was not without any effect on the flight.

"We are close to Moriya Shrine"

'Toot Toot Toot Toot T

Before he finished speaking, he saw countless missiles flying in his direction from the Moriya Shrine, which was illuminated by various searchlights.

'Boom~~'

The helicopter swirled in the air with sparks and then fell to the ground.

'Bang! ’

Immediately after that, there was a loud bang, and when Lingxian's eyes went black, just such a thought flashed in his mind.

“F*ice！ (Fuck the second time.) ）”

I don't know how long it took

“Alpha！ Target！ 1.o‘clock！ (α, goal!) 1 o'clock direction! ）”

“！ (Cover me!) ）”

“Target！ 9.o‘clock！ ”

The sound of gunshots and anxious passwords gradually echoed in my head.

"Aren't you dead again?" Reisen sat up from the wreckage of the helicopter and looked at her still-intact body.

Out of sight, countless shadows approached this side.

"Captain, take it!"

Mayumi, who found that Rezusen had come to her senses, ran low and handed her a rifle at the same time.

'Ding-poof'

Just as Rezusen took the rifle, a stray bullet that hit the outer edge of the helicopter wreckage bloomed in Mayumi's brain with a brutal and bewitching blood flower.

“Man.Down！”

“I‘m.out! (I'm out of ammo!) At the same time, someone shouted this desperate sentence.

"Pick it up, the last one!" Yuriko threw a magazine to the soldier who was shouting.

"Everyone, check the ammunition!"

"I'm running out too!"

"There are too many of them!!"

'Ka Ka~~'

Reizen's rifle soon made a sound of a firing pin crashing. A magazine is only 30 rounds, which is not enough compared to the huge number of opponents.

[Did the good fortune given by the emperor end here? Reisen tossed her rifle aside and looked up at the sky.

"That's?" A flash of consternation flashed in his eyes.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

On the third day, at 0500 hours standard time.

"Time is of the essence, so we'll cut it short." In the headquarters of Moriya Shrine, a series of high-ranking officers such as Commander-in-Chief Yasaka Kanako walked into the conference room.

"Originally, we planned to use some of the Red Devil Pavilion to build an absolute defensive line and drag the war into a war of attrition. Such a strategic choice is definitely advantageous for us, who are not well prepared, although the sacrifice is great. ”

This can be seen by anyone who is smart. As long as time permits, the combined army that integrates the power of the entire Gensokyo, can definitely defeat the Demon King Army.

"It's a pity that the enemy's determination to win the battle was beyond our expectations, and the front line of the Red Devil Pavilion only held on for 1 day and fell. Chief of Staff, I'll leave it to you next. ”

Hearing this, Patchouli stood up and said in an unhurried voice.

"According to the information from the Shooting Pill of the High-altitude Reconnaissance Group of the Ministry of Intelligence, the Demon King Army has gathered about 30,000 combat forces on the front line of the Red Devil Pavilion. Of course, this is not the main thing. According to the information from some of the Eternal Pavilion Army in the Enchanted Forest, as well as the confirmation of the Intelligence Department, the Demon King Army has some wonderful moves on the Lake of Mist. Presumably, it is likely that they came for the remnants of the last great war. ”

"So, the Combine command unanimously decided." Kanako Yasaka took Pacuri's words and announced.

"Marisa Kiriyu, Alice Margotroyd, and Sixteen Nightsaki, the above three are incorporated into the newly established special forces - Task· Force—141。 (TF141: Special Service 141)"

'Woo ~~~~~~~~'

The sirens of the air raids sounded throughout the Yokai Mountain.

"Qi~Dawn fighting!?" Kanako scolded hatefully.

"Time is running out, TF141, there will be troops in the Enchanted Forest to meet you, and the rest is up to you."

------------------------ there are people who fight to return to their homeland, and there are people who fight to abandon their homeland. When the wings of sorrow pass by, tears dance in the wind of the sky-----------------------

"Contingency

Day 3 – Unitary time (1708 standard time)

Captain Marisa Kiri.

Task.Force.141 - 141 Special Service Force

Location: Enchanted Forest, on the shores of the Lake of Mist.

The cold forest, with the occasional birdsong echoing through the forest.

A few tiny flashes of light flashed between the trees, and in a few moments, as if in response, a few lights and shadows flashed across the jungle.

"Forever Pavilion Army People." After confirming the signal, Marisa carefully stood up from the dense forest.

At the same time, walk out from behind the bushes on the other side

"But"

Marisa, who had only taken two steps, looked back at Sakuya behind her.

"I mean, you're a little nervous, okay?"

From beginning to end, Sakiya stood aside unabashedly, without the slightest intention of hiding his whereabouts.

"Isn't this the area of control of the Combine? Isn't it necessary to be so careful as secretly sneaking behind enemy lines? ”

"That's right, that's right." The doll walking in front of Alice echoed the words.

"Lord Alice, as long as we are enough, Lord Alice only needs one person to match a division!"

"Kola~ Be polite when you speak! I don't remember teaching you such an impudent conversation. Alice struck Shanghai on the head with a knife.

"I'm so sorry, Mistress Alice." Shanghai hugged his head and replied in an aggrieved tone.

"Ah~~" Marisa let out a long sigh, ignoring the two of them and looking back at the Combine soldiers who were approaching.

"Combined Army, Forever Pavilion Army, Corporal of the 3rd Reconnaissance Company - Nanase." Coming over, a Combine soldier with a pair of rabbit ears on his head took the lead in saluting.

“Task· Force·141, Marisa Kiriyu

Looking at the soldier's Marisa, she didn't know whether to salute or say hello casually. The hand hanging in mid-air was at a loss, after all, 2 days ago, she was just an ordinary person.

"We've been monitoring the Lake of Fog for a long time, and it seems that the Demon King Army is salvaging something." Fortunately, Corporal Nanase didn't care about any of this.

"Here, please follow me."

The group walked in the woods, and did not deliberately hide their whereabouts, and even the Combine soldiers who led the way did not have too much vigilance.

"Is it so easy for the Eternal Pavilion Army stationed in the Enchanted Forest?" Marisa, full of questions, asked curiously.

"Easy?" Nanase's footsteps paused slightly.

"No, I wanted to walk in the woods two days ago, but I crawled all over the ground like gophers and bed bugs. The reason why I can use it so normally today is thanks to Youkai Mountain. ”

"What do you mean?" As soon as she said this, Marisa realized that she had asked a stupid question.

"Sorry I didn't ask."

In order to conquer Mt. Yokai and Shouya Shrine, the Demon King Army has gathered a large amount of combat power, and even most of the patrols in the Enchanted Forest have been transferred.

"Hide!"

Just as Marisa was thinking, Nanase's shouts woke her up, and the misty lake appeared in her sight.

The whistling of an engine swept across the sky, and he quickly leaned down and hid in the bushes.

"From here, the garrison of the Demon King Army has begun to tighten." As she said this, Nanase pulled out a small telescope and looked at the lake.

At this moment, there was a sudden faint sound from the nearby bushes.

"Corporal."

With the sound, an Eternal Pavilion soldier, also with rabbit ears, emerged from the bushes.

"My own people!" Motioned for Marisa and the others not to move.

"How's it going?"

"The garrison is tighter than expected, and there are at least 1,000 units near the Lake of Fog and in the sky. And," said "With that, Private took out his map and pointed to the location in the center of the Lake of Mist.

"Just one and a half hours ago, the Demon King Army salvaged something from this location."

"It's so difficult to even get close to the lake, how do you know for sure?" Sakuya, who hadn't opened his mouth much on the side, suddenly asked.

"Voice." Private replied.

"At that time, there was a loud noise in the lake that was very similar to the tide of the sea, and from the sound when it came out of the water, it was at least a big guy of tens of thousands of tons."

"What the hell is it, and it's still very interesting." Marisa touched her chin and smiled faintly.

Standard time 1830 hours

"This is TF141, arrive at the intended location."

"This is the Eternal Pavilion Army, the 78th Special Detachment. Remember, we can only buy you 5 minutes, and you are on your own at sea. ”

"5 minutes, more than enough!"

"Then, the battle begins!"

'Boom Boom'

On the shore of the Lake of Mist, a series of explosions suddenly erupted.

'Whoosh'

Watch as the patrol aircraft overhead turns and flies towards the area of the explosion.

"Let's go!"

Three lights and shadows rose from the other direction, flying towards the center of the misty lake.

After a while, a huge silhouette appeared in the eyes of the three of them.

"It's so big~~~"

Although the visibility was low, the huge black shadow like a hill brought more shock under the haze covered by the fog.

"Well, at least 2 km." Sakiya nodded secretly.

In front of it, the nearby salvage ships were like paper boats.

"High energy response ahead!"

At this moment, Alice suddenly shouted.

"It's coming!"

The dense beam of light in the sky suddenly greeted him.

"What a hassle~~! I didn't expect the defense to be so tight. ”

Immediately after the dense artillery fire, batch after batch of fighters rushed straight towards the three of them.

"Alice, I've got you covered! Sakuya and I went straight in to see what was going on. ”

After saying that, the two of them rushed straight towards the behemoth.

"Huh!?" Alice, who was unguarded, was slightly stunned, and then yelled unwillingly.

"15 minutes at most!!"

"10 minutes is enough!" Marisa's voice echoed in the air.

"So"

Surrounded by Alice, numerous figures armed with spears and knight armor appeared.

"Heavy MA Commando! Assault!! ”

The golden light and shadow suddenly bloomed in the mist, and the blooming sparks bloomed in the haze.

"Alice is really motivated!"

Marisa pressed the witch's hat on her head with one hand and glanced back in Alice's direction.

"The target is too big, and it seems like it will take a lot of effort to find the entrance." Sakuya casually threw out a row of flying knives, and two passing fighters dragged Nongyan towards the lake.

"Don't bother!"

Take out the Bagua Furnace and face the end of the ancient ship below it. The cherry blossom light gathers rapidly in the center.

“Master· Spark！ ”

The powerful shock wave shook the surrounding clouds and mist, and roared towards the giant ship below.

The beam did not hit the old armor directly, as expected, but rippled through layers of transparent ripples.

'Boom~~'

It's a pity that this unknown giant ship has been sleeping in the water for too long, and the originally powerful protective shield only lasted for a short time before it was completely defeated.

"Huh? Just to open such a small gap? Magic Sofa let out a surprised and disgruntled cry.

The blow of his self-confidence only caused the armor that looked like it was about to rust to open a gap of more than ten meters.

"Don't complain, it's not enough as a breakthrough!"

Although a gap of more than ten meters may sound appalling, in fact, for such a huge warship several kilometers long, a gap of more than ten meters is likely to not completely break the first layer of armor. It is easy to see from the gap that there is no smoke coming out of the fire.

"I know the way!" Marisa once again aimed the gossip furnace at the gap.

"This time, I'm going to crush you!! Master！！！！！ Spark！！！！！！ ”

The shockwave erupted in a ferocious roar again.

'Boom! ’

With a dull roar, the entire hull of the ship trembled slightly on the surface of the water, and billowing smoke rose from the gap with a little spark.

"Rush in!"

Two rays of light and shadow rushed straight down, bringing up a powerful air flow that split the smoke column in two.

"It looks like a gnaku"

The leisurely words came to an abrupt end.

"What a grand welcome." Marisa, standing in the flames, said in a mocking tone to the perfect and dashing maid beside her.

Just beyond the firelight, a brief symphony of weapons charging and bolts pulling up formed a brief symphony. The wide platform and landing gear were filled with kappa and robots, and the muzzles of countless black holes pointed at the flames.

"Yes. It seems like it will take a lot of time. Sakiya lifted her clenched hands, and between her fingers was filled with throwing knives that reflected the silver light.

"Is this a joke?" Marisa slid a cold sweat on her head.

“All.units.be.advised！ Directive.One－One－Six－Bravo.has.been.executed！ SDS(Self－detonation－system)is.in.effect！ Safety.Devices.release.in.480.secondsAll.units.be.advised！ directive.one-one-six-bravo.has.been.executed" [Attention all units, protocol 1-1-6 is being executed.] The self-destruct system is activated, and the safety device is removed for 480 seconds.

At this moment, shocking news came over the radio.

"What now!?" Marisa turned to look at Sakuya.

"It's going to self-destruct just because it's invaded by the two of us, it seems that there is something that the Demon King Army hates very much." Sakiya calmly analyzed.

"That is?"

“The.Enemy.Of.My.Enemy.is.My.Friend。” Sakiya whispered the words.

"I see, then, the target is the central control room." Marisa lowered the brim of her hat slightly, a smile crossing her lips.

"But do you know the way?"

"Remembered." Sakiya's arm lifted slightly, hooking back. Motioned for Marisa to look behind her.

The electronic screen on the wall shows the floor plan of the ship's facilities.

"I said you're reliable."

"Then, Miss Marisa, I'll leave the job of opening the passage to you."

"It would be perfect if you didn't use honorifics on me." Marisa sighed slightly.

"Wrap it up on me."

"So, first of all, the gate directly ahead"

The two of them bent their knees slightly, and their bodies pressed downward.

“Go！”

As soon as the words fell, a flying knife like a raindrop pierced through the flames.

Bright red blood splattered in the air, and his weak body collapsed to the ground.

The blue arc swam across the robot's metal surface, and then, as if losing its strength, its body drooped.

At the same time, two figures followed, rushing towards the closed gate.

“Fire！ Fire！！ ”

A barrage of brilliance sealed off the space, and bullets splashed sparks on the hard ground.

“Master· Spark！！！ ”

A sakura shockwave slammed into the hard alloy, and the gate began to dissolve rapidly before exploding violently.

'Boom~~'

Behind the gate, the kappa and the robot, who were still at a loss, were suddenly swept up by the impact of the explosion.

Without any pause, the two rushed directly to the flames of the explosion.

"The next one is also the front gate, Miss Marisa can focus on her own tasks, and the miscellaneous soldiers will be left to me to deal with." As he spoke, Sakiya stepped forward and stretched out his arms on both sides. The knives were plunged into the heads of all the interceptors who arrived from the passages on both sides.

"Oh!!" Blue light converged in Marisa's palms

"Zone 25 was broken through, and it was fast." A kappa looked at the GPS in his hand and reported to Kawashiro Natori, who had already stepped onto the airship.

"Blocking the main passage gate inside the ship, no matter what the cost, must destroy the toys left by those guys on the moon."

"Yes!"

Through the second gate, above the railing above the main passage, there were soldiers of the Demon King Army waiting for them.

"Sakiya!"

"Peace of mind!" Sakiya sped up suddenly, passed through the barrage, and jumped hard as she approached the bar. The body is flipped 180 degrees in the air, and the hands are slashed across the long skirt of the maid on the thighs, and a row of throwing knives appears in the palms.

Just as the top of his head crossed the Demon King's soldiers, his body suddenly swirled, and the flying knife and long skirt slashed in the air in a spiral of death.

Landing softly, without any stops, continue to rush forward.

Marisa whistled in admiration. This kind of gorgeous action is probably only possible for this silver-haired maid.

'Boom~~'

Another floodgate was blasted open.

"Safety.Devices.release.in.360.seconds (There are 360 seconds left to unlock the installation device.) The sound of the countdown reached everyone's ears with the announcement.

"Don't make it any more difficult, okay!"

"Next, the gate on the right!" Marisa's grumbling is ruthlessly interrupted by Sakiya.

"Yes, yes"

Sakiya, who rushed to the front, only felt that there was a sudden darkness in front of him, and he subconsciously jumped forward.

'Boom~'

With the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the two-meter-tall robot slashed from behind behind it with a lightsaber in its hand breaking through the smoke screen.

Sakiya's body swirled slightly, lifted the long skirt, and raised her right leg slightly. When the right hand slashed through the leg, a short sword was already held in the backhand.

Spinning slightly, he flashed the fiery lightsaber that slashed down at a small distance, raised his right arm, and sent the short sword into the weak point of the armor of the 'giant's neck.

With the sparks jumping in the circuit, 'Giant' struggled with a twitch and then lost his ability to move.

'Boom~Boom~Boom~'

However, more 'giants' jumped from above.

"Let's go! Just one more intersection and you'll be there! Sakuya grabbed Marisa and threw her into the passage behind her.

"I'll leave it to me!" As he spoke, he slapped hard at the console at the entrance of the passage.

The green icon on the console suddenly turns bright red, and Marisa and Sakiya are completely divided by a gate.

"Safety.Devices.release.in.300.seconds (There are 300 seconds left to unlock the installation device.) ）”

"That's it!"

Looking at the dozen or so 'giants' behind him, Sakuya flipped his wrist, and two black swords appeared in his palm.

“The.Great.Journey.Ends.Here！ [This is the end of the wonderful journey.] The two swords crossed their backhands in front of them, and a trace of coldness flashed in their only eyes.

'Boom~~' exploded.

The metal wreckage and human bodies were blown away by the air currents of the explosion.

"Is this the main control room?"

The large room was filled with screens and instruments, but all of them displayed the same screen - a countdown.

"Now is not the time to be surprised," Marisa walked quickly to a console.

"It's fine if it's just to decipher some kind of magic, but this kind of work isn't for me"

Marisa, who had been typing on the keyboard for a long time, suddenly let out a grumble.

"Keys? You ask me for the key!? Suddenly, Marisa slammed her fist into the keyboard.

"How could this kind of thing still be here!?"

At this moment, the picture in front of him suddenly changed.

"What is this?"

Looking at the information that flashed quickly on the screen, Marisa's originally puzzled expression slowly turned into surprise.

“Weapon.Deploy？ (Weapon launch?) ）”

Eventually, all that's left on the screen is a row of let's statements.

"Hmph," Marisa's mouth curled slightly.

"Of course!"

On the Lake of Mist.

The surface of the giant ship slowly unfolded, and the rusty metal rubbed into a heavy echo.

"Marisa, what's going on!?"

"It's just a preparation to put out the fire!" Marisa's nonchalant tone radioed into her ears.

"Ah~ah~~ I almost forgot. Get out of here, this ship is about to explode! ”

'Boom~~'

With a roar, an object that spewed a scorching flame shot up from the surface of the battleship and flew into the sky at an increasing speed.

“Missile· In· The· Air！ (Missiles take off!) ）”

Immediately after, the surface of the lake began to shake violently, and countless crimson cracks appeared on the surface of the giant ship.

-------------------------Section 3----------------------

Standard time – 2045 hours.

Star Lotus Ship.

"Kanako-sama, the contact with Moriya Shrine was completely cut off from 15 minutes ago!"

"Is it completely broken?"

There was an eerie dreary atmosphere in the atmosphere.

"Let's enforce Protocol 317."

"Protocol 317!? That's it."

"They don't want to think of anything."

"But, Kanako-sama! I'm afraid of this order."

The deck of the Star Lotus Ship slowly rose.

"Why do you want us to carry out this order!?" Kiruno touched the back of her head and complained angrily.

"There is no way to do it, and whoever calls the regular army refuses to carry out this order. And we are mercenaries who take money to do things," the big goblin's tone was equally dissatisfied.

"Murderer or executioner, which do you prefer?"

“”

"Really, it's an off-contract job! It's going to have to be extra."

“Combat· Fairys, now for gear instructions! A formulaic voice interrupted the conversation between the two.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"All the lines pressed [All.In]

Day 3 – 3 quarters of unitary time (2030 standard time)

Captain Reisen, Yuzukain, and Inaba.

2nd Motorized Infantry Brigade of the Combined Army, 75th Ranger Regiment, 1st Special Reconnaissance Company.

Location: Yokai Mountain

"I'm.gone! ）”

"Everyone, check the ammunition!"

"I'm running out too!"

"There are too many of them!!"

[Did the good fortune given by the emperor end here? Reisen tossed her rifle aside and looked up at the sky.

"That's?" A flash of consternation flashed in his eyes.

The reddened sky was suddenly covered in a blinding light, which rose rapidly in the sky like a second sun, and then quickly dissipated.

A gust of wind blew

'Boom~~'

An object that seemed to be a demon king machine was planted headlong into the dirt less than ten meters in front of him.

Immediately after that, there was a scene beyond everyone's common sense, and the Demon King Machine, which had previously dominated the sky of Youkai Mountain, let out a sharp roar and fell to the ground one after another, as if it was making the most sorrowful roar.

Not only the fighters of the Demon King Army, but even the helicopters of friendly forces lost control and fell down.

“Holy· Shit！！ ”

With the Rangers complaining in surprise, they began to look for safe shelter.

The fall of tens of thousands of warplanes in the sky is no joke, both in quantity and quality, comparable to a full-range bombardment.

"What the fuck is going on!?"

"It's strange to know the way!"

"It's terrible!"

"Hurry up and hide!!"

"Be careful!!

"Wow, oh, oh, !!"

Several warplanes almost crashed in front of them, and under the huge air waves, people were like saplings in the wind, unable to do it themselves.

"What the hell is going on!?"

"Just run!!"

"There's a trench!!"

It was as if a new continent had been discovered, and everyone scrambled to jump into this small ravine.

"Jump in!"

Cowering in the trench, all I could hear was the incessant explosions outside.

"It seems to have quieted down"

It was only a short time, but the deafening roar seemed like countless centuries had passed.

"But it was too quiet."

I was used to the roar of guns, and suddenly it became so silent that I couldn't even hear the sound of mosquitoes, so I naturally felt weird.

"Let's go and see." As she spoke, Reisen slowly poked her head out of the trench.

"You're going to get out? Are you two? One of them asked in horror.

Reisen ignored the other party's words and rolled over and jumped out of the trench.

"It's too dark."

Moriya Shrine, illuminated by the lights of searchlights, and Mt. Yokai, which was lit up in the night by the flames of war, are now just a black forest with no fingers in sight.

Fortunately, the moonlight in Gensokyo has always been abundant, and it can be seen clearly in an open place.

"It's like I've suddenly arrived in another world."

It was still in a situation where his life was hanging by a thread, but now it is so calm that it is as if nothing has happened. Anyone can find the atmosphere weird.

"The Demon King Army, it's not moving."

Reisen walked up to a Demon King Army and gently pushed it with his rifle, causing the Demon King Army's fighting machine to collapse.

"Hey, do your radios still work?"

Yuriko patted the communicator hanging in her ear, and then asked the others.

"Nope."

"Mine doesn't work, it's weird."

"It looks like all the electronics are out of order." Reisen checked his equipment and confirmed.

"Well, although our situation is terrible, it is at least a good thing compared to these iron lumps."

"Captain, what do we do now?"

Not only Yuriko, but even the other Rangers were at a loss.

"Anyway, find the other survivors first. It's better to be able to get in touch with the big troops."

'Kick~Kick~Kick~'

At that moment, several bright lights shot straight into the air—it was the glow of a searchlight.

"That's the direction of Moriya Shrine."

"Good, looks like we're going to find our target pretty quickly." Reizen, who had finally found ammunition in the corpse on the ground, pulled the bolt of the gun violently.

“Rangers，Move.out！ (Rangers, act.) ）”

As we got closer to the Moriya Shrine, the gunfire became more and more intense.

"Take action, soldiers!! Assemble at Moriya Shrine!! ”

Not far away, a second lieutenant kept pointing in the direction of the newly arrived Combine forces.

"Continue to strafe with machine gun fire!! I need more people to outflank Moriya Shrine!! In the distance, you can hear the roar of Sanae in the East Wind Valley.

"Lieutenant Colonel, how is the situation now?" Reisen jumped into the trench where Sanae was with his teammates.

"The current situation is in our favor, and the kappa of the Demon King Army have gathered at the shrine with a small number of special equipment. And there is still electricity in the Moriya Shrine, which means that if we retake this place, we will be able to contact the headquarters on the Star Lotus ship. ”

"What if you can't?" Reisen felt a hint of inexplicable anxiety and uneasiness in Sanae's tone.

"We.will.abort.our.mission.on.direct.visual.contact.with.this.countersign" Sanae pulled out an old-fashioned radio, and this cacophony of words came from it.

"I see!!" Reizen's expression suddenly became solemn.

"Now, you and your squad are outflanked from the left flank! Fast! ”

“1st. Force.Recon！ Let‘s.Move！ (1st Special Reconnaissance Company, follow me!) Reisen rolled over and jumped out of the trench.

Searchlights constantly patrol the wide area in front of the shrine, and heavy machine guns continue to harvest the lives of Combine soldiers who want to rush up.

"Don't stop! Yuriko, knock out that searchlight. ”

'Peeping'

Another muffled sound.

On the side of the building, a bright searchlight shines through. Immediately after, beside the searchlight, the fortifications clustered with sandbags erupted with deadly tongues of fire.

"Hidden!"

"Do we have heavy firepower!? Even if it's an RPG," Reisen, who was leaning back against the crater, confirmed her teammates.

"That's all there is to it." Yuriko handed her rifle to Suzusen, along with several rounds of ammunition the size of two No. 1 batteries.

"Cover me!" Reisen, who had taken his rifle, turned and aimed at the point of fire.

'Bang~'

There was a low snap, and a faint throwing arc was drawn in the air.

'Boom~'

The two figures were blown up by the explosion along with the dark machine guns.

"Rush in!"

Passing through the open field, Reisen tore off a pillar grenade from his tactical suit and threw it into the window of the room at the very edge.

'Ah~~~~'

A bright flash of light flickered through the window, followed by a wail of pain from the room.

'Bang! ’

Reisen kicked the door open, and the rifle began to fire mercilessly.

“Clear！”

"Hey! Captain, you listen!! ”

As soon as I entered the room, there was a constant sound like a radio from inside.

“ThisisAlly.mander.to.any.friendly.units.in.M.S（Moriya· Shrine）。 Scourge.of.the.Gods.is.in.effect! I.repeat,Scourge.of.he.Gods.is.in.effect。 "[Here is a notice from the Commander-in-Chief of the Coalition to all allies in the Moriya Shrine that the Divine Punishment Plan has been activated, and the Divine Punishment Plan has been activated.] ］

"Don't stop!" Reisen interrupted the soldiers' stunned.

"But"

"That's why we have to hurry up for something! Don't stop!! ”

“you.are.in.a.hardened.high－value.structure，Deploy.green.flares.on.the.roof.of.this.structure.to.indicate.you.are.bat.effective。” We.will.abort.our.mission.on.direct.visual.contact.with.this.countersign [If you receive this message, please go to a building of sufficient height and light a green signal on the roof of the building to indicate that you are still fighting, and we will decide whether to abandon the plan based on your code.]

The information broadcast on the radio is completely a reminder, and now the combined forces in the Shouya Shrine have to face the situation that one step back is death, one step slow is death, and only a desperate sprint can win a glimmer of life.

Reisen leaned against the wall next to the door, raised his right hand holding the flashbang, and gestured slightly towards Yuriko.

A small crack opened in the doorway, and then slammed shut.

'Bang~~'

The moment the sound of the flashbang explosion was confirmed, Yuriko kicked the door open.

'Buzz'

Gatlin's deep voice rang out, and a string of firelight pierced Yuriko's body.

"Damn, it's a robot!" Reisen hurriedly dragged the fallen Yuriko to the side, away from the machine-gun rays.

"Captain, get out of the way!"

A private carried an RPG on his shoulder, which he found out of nowhere, and pointed to the center of the door.

'Whoosh'

Billowing smoke filled the room, followed by a deafening roar and the sound of metal shards hitting the walls and floor.

"Let's go!"

Taking advantage of the fog, Reisen quickly rushed in.

The broadcast continues, however

“We.will.abort.our.mission.on.direct.visual.contact.with.this.countersignWeapon.Frees.o.Minutes。 [We'll decide whether to give up the action plan based on your code, and there are still 2 minutes left to unlock the weapon.] ］”

"Quick! Fast! Fast!!! We have less than two minutes left!! Reisen sprinted quickly towards the stairs.

“90.Seconds.Weapon.Frees！ (There are 90 seconds left to unlock the weapon)"

in the sky.

“Time.on.Target：90.Seconds。 Course.Heading.142.degrees。 Tighten.Up.The.Formation。 [90 seconds left to reach the target, 142° direction.] Carry out dense formations. ］”

A squadron of aviation with special equipment flew in the direction of Yokai Mountain.

"Forgive us," the elf muttered to himself.

"Don't be stupid, those guys on the ground won't let us use this!" Kiruno interrupted the goblin's frustrated words angrily.

“Combat· Fairys，Drop.to.the.deck。 [Lowers the height.] ］”

“Roger”

The formation descended from a high sky. As far as the eye can see, Mt. Yokai is pitch black, and only the location of Moriya Shrine is illuminated by lights.

“Target.acquired。 Rolling.in。 [Targeted, approaching.] ］”

“Weapon.Release。 [Weapon open.] ］”

“Time.on.Target：60.seconds。 [Reaches target after 60 seconds.] ］”

"Green smoke green smoke, it must be green smoke!" Cirno kept muttering

“Weapon.Frees.in.60.Seconds.”

'Boom~'

There was a small explosion, and the bloodied body lay on its back.

"60 seconds left! Fast!! ”

"Captain, see the zenith!"

He slammed the signal rod against the wall, and green smoke erupted.

And 8 meters!

The shoulder was suddenly cold, and the blood red infected the left shoulder, and a green signal rod fell to the ground abruptly.

The kappa, lying on the ground and dying, is holding a pistol and pointing it at Reisen's location.

"There are still 5 meters left"

'Phew'

A stream of bloody arrows erupted from the calf.

'Phew'

Another gunshot rang out, and the kappa's arm hung limply, blood running down the floor

“Time.on.Target，10.Seconds！”

“Master.Armed。 Repeat，Master.Armed！ (Turn on button, repeat, turn on button!) ）”

“Abort！ Abort！！！ (Suspended!) Discontinue!!! The big goblin suddenly shouted!

"I see a green signal!! I see a green signal!!! ”

"Green signal!! Is it a green signal!! ”

The top of Moriya Shrine is filled with green smoke.

And they did!! The bunch did it!!! ”

The formation flew quickly over the Moriya Shrine and then scattered in all directions in the air.

"Iha~~~~~" Kirunor let out an excited roar in the air as she spun and rushed into the sky.

"Haha" Reisen sat on the roof of the ruined building, gasping for breath.

She was really glad for her good fortune, both shots were only penetrating wounds and missed the vital point. Otherwise, she would really have to go to see the emperor.

"Captain, when are we going to counterattack back?" A private also sat weakly beside Reisen.

"It won't be long before the Demon King's Army is finished."

"When the time comes, I'll raze that stupid base to the ground." Private said to himself.

"Hmm"
