2.64------- Kill back

"If the world changed after the first invasion...... Not a lie, but an exaggeration. On the day the first antagonism landed in Ohio, people in Florida were still cursing the sun, farmers in Europe complained about the sudden change in weather, Asian stocks fell again, leaving forecasters worried, and bush fires began again in Australia.

"It took more than six hours for the real alien invasion to make international news, and even then, people still claimed it was a hoax and went on with their lives. How should a South African clerk treat aliens in the United States? Ha

"The world changes at its own pace, but it's always changing." β€”β€”Excerpt from "The Decline and Rise of Mankind"***

Simmons neglected the distribution of ammunition in the same way that volunteers neglected the distribution of snacks. The analogy was even more apt when I saw the eager expressions on the faces of all the security guards.

It turns out that in order to get into a man's heart, it does take a bullet.

"Well, what can you tell me?" I asked the team leader. "Do you have any plans so far other than to stay here? Are the other shelters as big as the one above? ”

Simon snorted. "The building was supposed to be brand new and state-of-the-art, but it was cut corners. These shelters were supposed to be put into operation a few months ago, but have stalled. The money was put into some fancy AA system on the roof. ”

"Is there a peculiar air defense system on the roof?" I asked. I think I'll hear something like that happen then. "You must have been because I didn't notice the shit."

He nodded, then shook his head. "It's just there, it's just inactive. If I could turn it on remotely, then I'd get everyone here and have a couple of buses ready to leave. Let it distract the aliens and make us run away. ”

"I don't like the way you look at me," I told the man.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes. "We're stuck here, unless you can clear the way from here to where the front line set up by the army is. No offense, though, you look a little green. ”

I wrinkled my nose in disgust, but had to give it to him. "Okay. So what is the AA system? ”

"Look, it's a hunch, an idea. But if you can arrive and open it and come back, we can activate it from here and leave. It should be said that it is very effective. Lasers and railguns and much more. Made by some samurai in the south. ”

"It's a good choice," I said. I have other thoughts in mind, but I'm not going to look for a hired policeman. "I'm going upstairs to pick up the kids. We're going to get out of this place anyway, so, you know, get everybody ready for that. ”

He nodded. "Fair enough. Do you want me to send a few children with you? ”

"No," I said. Seeing the flattery of the two puppets just now, I almost shivered with disgust. "I'll take care of it myself. I guess most of the aliens are from below, so we should be fine. ”

He nodded. "Don't die."

"Again," I said. I rolled my eyes in response to his salute and walked towards the door.

A group of idiots are busy pushing an overturned hovering car towards the door. Not too heavy, I guess, but enough to make walking painful.

"Hey!" I shouted. "I need that door."

Everyone looked at each other, and then chose a leader with their eyes, a familiar leader. Brand stepped forward, smiling triumphantly. "I'm sorry. Are you going out again? In the end, he didn't hide his nervousness very well.

"There was a group of kids on a couple of floors. I'm going to bring them here before we plan our escape. I said.

"Ah, can't they take care of themselves?" He asked.

I stared at him for a long time, wondering if he was an idiot or a heartless bastard. hum

"You keep that door open, or no one will be happy when I come back with a new door."

"Yes, yes," he said. "Do you want someone to come with you?"

"I like to have company, but not you," I said as I walked past him.

Despite the fact that almost all samurai were worshipped, they were also quite terrifying to ordinary people. With no laws to restrain them, most governments are willing to ignore some broken skulls of a useful samurai, and most legions, arguably stronger than some, will bend down and lick the samurai's shoes.

I moved my jaw as I walked into the stairwell and started to go up step by step.

People have acted as if I'm more than Catherine, which is kind of exciting, weird, and frankly unsettling.

"Is that true of every samurai?" I asked.

The Vanguard Group operates companies that act for the benefit of humanity. Once a person becomes a pioneer, our interference is light, and no AI will act to harm their master other than providing information.

As I continued to climb, I moved my shoulders. "I think it's reassuring."

If that's not enough to help you get out of your depression, I can recommend taking some stimulants.

I laughed. "Fuck off Myaris."
