“… … .”
Roland was frozen in his half-raised position.
A while after the enemies broke through the door, I heard the sounds of the enemies appearing to be in confusion, just as Minho had predicted. So, I sneaked out of cover to provide support fire… What caught his eye was a very different scene than expected.
“Ugh!!!”
“Increase the distance!”
“My hand… ! My soo-on!!!!”
Minho was running wild as if he were a wolf in a flock of sheep. The enemies couldn’t handle that one person, so they were falling like leaves in a cold wind.
When the captain ordered to take out the EMP grenade, I thought there would be no other way, no matter how amazing Minho’s moves were.
It was clear that if multiple EMP grenades exploded at the same time at such a close range, even an android with shielding technology would not be able to withstand it.
But Minho went one step further.
Minho rushed at the enemies at a speed so fast that Roland’s optical sensor could vaguely detect it.
He took out an EMP grenade like lightning and cut off the wrists of the enemies and threw the grenade away somewhere. Roland could only guess that Minho had put it in the storage space he mentioned earlier.
‘… The enemy’s leader has lost his will to fight.’
For some reason, Minho is smiling leisurely and the enemies are struggling in fear.
As the situation progressed like this, Roland decided to observe Minho’s movements rather than intervene now and create a variable in the well-run battle.
As far as Roland knew, the mark drawn on their battle suits was the X-Tech logo. This meant that their identity was a security team supported by X-Tech headquarters.
Roland doesn’t know much about Xtech’s security team, but he had some knowledge about the security teams run by these large companies while working for a security android company in the past.
A special group that only intervenes in cases that have a significant impact on the safety of the headquarters and the operation of the company. A military unit that always boasts overwhelming firepower based on Elysion’s advanced technology. In fact, it was a well-established theory that the security team run by a large company in Elysion had stronger combat power than the regular army of many weak countries.
Naturally, as they received enormous funding from headquarters, they were expert in dealing with not only humans but also androids.
To see such infamous people so scared and screaming. A situation that cannot be understood with Roland’s knowledge.
‘I can’t even see them properly on my optical sensor… ‘
The battle suits worn by the enemies had a special pattern printed on them that prevented their faces from being recognized by the optical sensor.
Although it was possible to guess a person and the location of vital points, including the head, through logic circuits and combat algorithms, it was a device that consumed computational resources and forced delays in data processing.
However, Minho was moving at an incredible speed, but without hesitation, he aimed for the exact point of attack and neutralized the opponent.
‘How on earth is this possible…? ?’
While Roland was astonished by Minho’s combat performance, the enemies, who had been shooting their allies, whom Minho had used as shields, until they were reduced to mushy, little by little began to come to their senses.
It was clearly visible that if things continued like this, they would be ridiculously wiped out. The captain, who had shown a disgrace for a moment, came to his senses and ordered his subordinates to inject the stimulant drug built into the battle suit and began to confront Minho.
“Krrr… ”
“Phew… ”
“Duuu!!!!”
Enemies start running rampant, showing various reactions depending on the drug administered.
Roland also tensed at the sight and couldn’t help but put strength in the hand holding the gun. I trust Minho because he has shown me something, but it will definitely not be easy to come to my senses and deal with enemies who are even addicted to drugs.
And Minho’s actions were different from his expectations this time.
“Is there more? If you’re hiding something, bring it all out! Don’t die while saving!”
Rather, Minho was waiting for the enemies to prepare with a bright smile on his face.
As the enemies brought out new weapons and resisted more fiercely, Minho somehow reacted as if he was more excited.
I don’t know what he was thinking, but after being hit by concentrated fire, Minho even put away the sword he was holding and started beating the enemy with his bare fists.
“Hehehe… Is there anything else to bring up? If you search and come out, it’s a huge hit for one item.”
Pow——!
Crack!
‘During battle, does the personality software change? ? Although he was originally a bit overconfident, he seemed to have a bit of a serious side to him… ‘
Roland had to seriously wonder whether Minho’s artificial intelligence had gone berserk as he completely crushed the enemy inside the battle suit with his fists so that not even the corpse was left intact.
Of course, since Roland didn’t know Minho’s situation, he couldn’t know that Minho’s actions had nothing to do with the enemy’s corpse. The purpose of using fists was simply to take intact loot that was not torn by the sword.
Ta-da-da-da-dang——!
Okay!
“Aaagh!”
“Monster… monster… !”
“This is a dream… !”
Despite the help of the stimulant drug, the enemies quickly lost their will to fight as they watched the android, whose attacks did not work, excitedly crush its comrades one after another.
Roland, who saw that, decided to sit quietly behind cover and wait for Minho to finish cleaning up.
It wasn’t because he was worried that Minho, who seemed to be distracted by something, would punch him too.
***
Huh!
Patter…
I quickly swung my arm and brushed the blood off my fist. The remaining marks were roughly rubbed on the fallen enemy’s clothes.
And as he looked around at the loot lying around, he let out an exclamation.
“Kya… What kind of rice cake is this?”
The enemies were wearing futuristic body armor and rifles, daggers with built-in electric shock effects, grenades that created a strong impact instead of scattering fragments, a sharp capture net that could cut off a human finger, etc…
‘Oh, I tore the net.’
Aside from a few items that were inevitably damaged, there was a lot of loot that was in perfect condition.
Perhaps it was because they used quite expensive armament, but the durability of the items themselves was not bad.
A harvest that automatically makes you hum.
I bent down and swept up all the weapons scattered on the floor into my inventory.
Roland, who could sense the air, was sitting quietly behind cover, so he didn’t pay attention to what was being seen. I don’t know if he was hit by a blinding bullet during the battle, or if he suddenly turned into a cowardly android, but it didn’t matter.
‘I didn’t know we’d already get an EMP weapon… If I do well, I’ll be able to get everything I want with just one or two major conflicts with humans in the future?’
Then, it seemed like I could pay less attention to Awaken’s gaze.
No matter what anyone says, I was the one responsible for proposing this attack and making it a success.
When the factory starts operating again, Awaken’s power will also gradually increase, but since this operation revealed that I am an asymmetrical force, my position in Awaken will also increase.
While I was thinking about that, I was about to collect all the loot when I heard Tom’s voice through my earpiece.
-Minho! Roland! Gale has taken control of the factory’s main system! You can retreat now!
And at the same time, I felt Roland’s presence moving.
After checking my inventory one last time, I straightened my bent back.
“… … .”
Roland looks at me as if he sees something strange on the subject of Android. He answered Tom.
“The cleanup has been completed here as well.”
-what… ? Could it be that you were subdued?
“No. Minho took out all the enemies alone.”
-what? Did I hear that correctly? Could it be that there was an error?
“No… Let’s go back to the hideout and talk about the details. First of all, follow-up troops may arrive, so we will retreat as planned.”
-… Okay, let’s join Gale and get moving. Coming back comes first. I hope you come back safely.
Roland, who had finished communicating with Tom, called me.
“Minho.”
“Huh?”
“It seems like things are back to normal… Do you remember the battle with the enemy?”
“Of course. Let’s go back sooner than that. The others will be waiting.”
He urged Roland, who tilted his head and asked a question whose intention was unknown.
At the same time as picking up the loot, the corpses of the enemies were gathered up and piled up. At first glance, you probably won’t be able to tell that I took care of anything.
But I didn’t necessarily want to give Roland time to observe it closely.
Roland seemed to think about something for a moment and then nodded his head.
“… You are right.”
“Oh, go first. I’ll be more cautious of the surroundings just in case.”
“I’m okay alone… no. What are you worried about? I’ll go first, so follow me quickly.”
“Okay.”
With those last words, Roland turned and ran toward the center of the factory.
As I watched this, I placed the items I had stored in my inventory on the floor.
In reality, it was the bomb bag planted at Olivia’s school and the explosives taken while robbing the gang.
“Now… Then, should I just break it in half?”
