Chapter 1606 Interim Leader Of Daimon City -Part 10
"Oh. So she finally found what she wanted." Tellie smiled as she could see that even in the chaos, her fellow colleague could find happiness within it.
"Ha ha ha! Do not get discouraged okay? At least I am a late bloomer and not the very last one." Diaz tapped Yinn"s shoulders as Click"s mechanical beasts finally came out of the woods and into the opening where they were at. However, contrary to everyone"s expectations that Yinn would show at least some reactions to Diaz"s provocation, she was extremely focused on her current predicament.
The Forest Trolls were still taking their time to surround them, in an attempt to cut them off from any escape routes, hoping that their charade of killing a few of the Forest Trolls was the only achievement they could ever ama.s.s. However, the moment the mechanical hounds that Click had summoned had reached the small opening, Yinn"s plan sprung into action.
Lynn gave them an unexpected boost in their opening attack, as her drop kick to kill a forest troll had become a shockwave blast that forced the trolls to be stunned momentarily, allowing Yinn and Diaz to burst through the first few lines of forest trolls. "Coordinates sent! Time the attacks!" Yinn shouted through her intercom as they were trying their best to speed through the large forest trolls without doing any attacks yet."
And within a few seconds, there was a whistling sound before an explosion erupted right in front of Yinn and Diaz. That was when Lynn and the others deduced that Yinn had decided to use the precious artillery support given by Jin and Diamondz Corps as a way to move forward. They were to utilise the artillery impact as a means of cover which means that it was dangerous close for the duo. If they were not fast or slow enough with their movement, they would get hit.
If it was not for the regeneration trait of the forest trolls, one wave of artillery bombardment would have been enough. However, Yinn decided to play safe and requested a bombardment right behind them as well. This was to prevent the forest trolls from regenerating in time to chase after them. Shooting out a second wave of bombardment after they moved forward through their trail, would force the Forest Trolls to pause momentarily while hoping that a few get killed by the attacks.
After all, getting to the Monster Lure was an objective while returning alive was another. Still, that crazy stunt Yinn pulled means that as long as they were within the time frame of each artillery bombardment, they should be able to come out of this unscathed to destroy the monster lure.
And she got her wish granted. The bombardment stopped when they were closing near the dungeon entrance and they could see the mechanical pillar that they wished to deactivate. The monster lure was right there putting out a scent so desirable that the forest trolls they were starting to see were of a different skin colour. Currently, most of them were a little distracted by the bombardment and did not realise the presence of Yinn and Diaz reached the Monster Lure.
But without hesitation, the both of them each threw a bag full of sticky C4s bombs into the crevices of the mechanical pillar before running away from it. Unfortunately, those variant Forest Trolls got to their senses when they somehow detected a threat to the Monster Lure that had been attracted to and managed to kick Yinn"s mechanical hound down, causing her to fall.
"STICK TO THE PLAN!" Yinn shouted as she could see that Diaz had instinctively tried to move back just for her. Just as she shouted at Diaz, the monster lure erupted into a fiery show of explosions as the lure itself was rather volatile in nature too. It was also a signal for one of their Grey Bears who was responsible for giving them a way out of this mess they got into.
A gigantic blast of energy beam had been released a few metres away from the monster lure"s position, narrowing and avoiding the dungeon entrance while ensuring that the trolls were killed in the process.
"GO! You are a Gunzerker now! An Evolved Mechanoid. The Squad will need you more than they need me!" Yinn said as she jumped up on the troll and she threw a grenade into its mouth while distracting it with a few bullets into its chest.
"f.u.c.k that martyr s.h.i.+t! You think you are some bigshot doing this?!" Diaz turned back and grabbed Yinn to the back of its Mechanical hound. The energy beam was once again a sufficient distraction for Diaz to perform this but they knew that the person who shot that beam was none other than Tellie. There was no way she could fire it repeatedly in this short amount of time and the "escape" route Tellie created could only last long enough for the Mechanical hound burdened with two mechanoids to sprint a short distance before the duo gets surrounded again.
"What are you doing?!" Yinn shouted while she felt that Diaz was wasting her chances on a standard Mechanoid like her. Yet at that point, Diaz gave the reins of the Mechanoid Hound to Yinn and told her to ride it while she switched positions with her vice leader so that she focus on shooting.
"You ride this Mechanical Hound out of this s.h.i.+t you created. I am not leaving you behind because you are responsible for my life, Vice Leader." Diaz made no sense at all at that point in time since all she could think of was the amount of havoc she could create with her new Gunzerker trait. "Also, give me your gun when I ask for it. There"s only so much ammunition I could carry just now since you did not allow me to prepare enough."
"How would I know the amount of ammunition you needed differs?"
"You should have known that the moment you planned this nonsensical strike operation!"
"More like you have already brought more than enough ammunition, a Mechanoid could usually carry!"
"Well! I did not know that my body can now just eat s.h.i.+t loads of ammunition and spew them out when I need them!" Diaz complained but even as they did that, they were moving back to the small opening that they had designated as their gathering point. Although It was only 1.4 kilometres away all they could think of right now was to shoot and run, hoping that the rest of the team could survive when they reached.
