Chapter 1493 Private Corpo Ambush - Final
As the bullet slammed onto the tip of the missile, it caused the volatile chemical within the bullet point to ignite. The bullet's explosion didn't exactly caused the missile to explode but rather forced a jerk in the plane's movements since it only hit the guidance system when it met bullet tip to missile tip.
But this already made the plane move downwards because the pilot was unsure what was happening and forced him to auto react by pulling his stick downwards. This sudden movement complimented the second bullet from Tellie's double tapping going through the hole that the first bullet had made by exploding the missile guidance system causing a series of chain explosions.
The second bullet penetrated further through the missile guidance system before hitting the portion where the missile's warhead had been placed, causing it to explode and destroying the internal portions of the plane, forcing it to go into flames.
There was no way the pilot would have envisioned how his life was going to end this way. In fact, he even had planned for things to do after this sortie which made life even more unpredictable for these freelance pilots.
But because the private corpo pilot was killed, all the points that he had accumulated were being transferred to Jin. A whooping half a million points! All the gold bars that he had were nothing compared to this dead pilot's wallet.
Nie could not believe that Jin and the Grey Bear Squad had somehow managed to destroy a fighter jet and possibly one of the most advanced versions, perhaps even a private corpo prototype that had been destroyed since he has never seen such a plane before. But instead of being elated by this minor victory in the grand scheme of events, Nie quickly concentrated on stepping on the acceleration, hoping that he could get to Old Fammet's base as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Tellie was busted from the overload of code boost. She was practically smoking from all her ventilation points. Diaz and Click tried to reduce her heat by holding onto her so as to transfer heat through conduction but it was useless until Jin turned around and assisted in reducing her temperature.
He utilised his Maqi and turned it into White Panda Ice Energy and attempted to regular her temperature as they pulled back into the car. The SUV's interior turned icy cold because of Jin's manipulation of the temperature and Nie initially thought it was him who turned the thermostat down to the lowest to have such an effect until it became too cold to be true.
"How the hell is this place so cold? Your War Maidens has the ability to control ice cold winds?" Nie shouted as he tried to look behind despite the need to stay focused on the front.
"Do not worry about that, worry about what is in front!" Diaz said as she pointed forward and only then Nie realised that there was a roadblock right in front of him.
"Fuck fuck fuck!" Nie knows that stopping now would do nothing but cause the current situation to deteriorate and the soldiers in front were already shooting at them. So, all he could do was step on the peddle hoping not to die in the process.
"Yinn, Diaz!" Jin shouted and the two War Maidens immediately had their weapons out of the SUV's windows and started retaliating back against the soldiers at the roadblock. Jin had also commanded the Tactical System to use code boost on his War Maidens, but only using the accuracy boost codes. (Meanwhile, the SUV continued to stay cold despite the windows were opened making it very sure to Nie that one of their War Maidens probably have a temperature modulating module that allowed them to blast cold air while Jin configured his overheated War Maiden.)
But that cold air was good for the head as it made him calm enough to charge and topple the roadblock allowing him to move the very last stretch where he could see Old Fammet's workshop gates coming into sight.
Yinn and Diaz continued to provide cover fire until they heard sounds of artillery booming its way from Old Fammet's hideout.
"You rascals better hurry up! My gates are rusty!" Old Fammet shouted through the speakers and the bombardments happened, causing the private corpo Mechanoids to be blasted out of existence.
Nie changed his gear to the max and pressed the peddle even harder as if it would make any difference as they continued to push through until they passed the rusty old gateway and Old Fammet slammed the emergency lock button to cause those gates to abruptly right in front of those private corpo soldiers.
Cement walls were also raised giving birth to a second layer of defence before the turrets emerge on the top of them, making the workshop the last bastion of safe haven for Old Fammet and the Grey Bear Squad.ππ³π¦ππ€β―π―nπΌΡ΅eπ. c૦π
"Are you guys alright?" Old Fammet asked as Jin came out of the SUV and assisted the rest to bring Tellie out of the car.
"My War Maiden a little busted from an overdrive of codes. We tried to cool it down but I suspect there may be something else that is interfering with her rebooting." Jin said in a concerned manner which made Old Fammet smile with joy that there were still commanders who cared for the Mechanoids as if they were a part of their team. Not just some disposable robot.
"Bring her into my workshop. I think I know what the problem is. NIE BRING ME MY DRINK AND GET TO WORK!"
"YES BOSS!" Nie shouted as he ran to open the workshop doors. As Diaz carried Tellie into the workshop.
"Yinn, Get to the top with the sniper rifle and survey the perimeter. Bring more ammunition with you. Click, check if those turrets or artillery guns needed more manning or if they need more ammunition, bring it to them. Else, direct their firepower to the targets you see on the tactical system." Jin said as he went to the SUV to pick up his weapons while boosting the chi aura.
"Yes, Captain!" The two War Maidens said as they followed him to get what they needed for the fight.
