Chapter 1001: A Little Shock"Control the situation? To what extent?"Ulrich was really confused at that moment, as she had never expected Renault to ask this question. Could it be that for them, controlling the current situation in the city beneath their feet was not something that required all their efforts to achieve?"It costs one price to delay time for those who need to evacuate, another price to clear out the ELID-infected people in the city, and another price to ensure the survival of the city. Of course, it costs more to clear out those Paradeus."Being shaken by Renault's calm tone about what extent she had to achieve, Ulrich was immediately pulled back by the phrase "add money."However, at this time, Ulrich had to look at Ambassador K and Roshchin next to her, and began to doubt whether Renault was reliable.After all, from the other party's tone, these things were no different from being easy to get. The city defense army of this city doesn’t even dare to make such promise. Isn't this security contractor treating them as fools by saying these?The key is not the problem of strength. If it were the military, it would not be difficult to control the situation in this city. After all, the equipment used by the military and the combat plan to deal with ELID-infected people have already been planned.The real problem is time. The military's actions are not enough to save the city.Even if time permits, the military's combat forces cannot appear here in full view. This place is not their own territory.If the military starts to act, it may trigger a new war before it takes even a few steps.Although Ulrich only heard a little about Renault, K and Roshchin knew some inside information. Therefore, when Ulrich looked at them for confirmation, they nodded almost at the same time.Seeing the two nod, Ulrich thought for a moment and finally closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "Mr. Renault, if possible, please do your best to save this city."In this era, the most precious thing is still people, and the importance of a large city that can provide shelter for tens of millions of people is naturally self-evident.The best situation at the moment is that Renault can successfully block the surging infected people and various mutants outside the city as she imagined, and buy time for the evacuation of people in the city and the reorganization of the city defense army.Although it is not known whether the city defense army can be reorganized, as long as a certain amount of time is gained... at least the military echelons of other cities can still rush over in time to clean up the mess.It’s not that she doesn’t want Renault to do more, but now that the city defense army has been dispersed, the city's protective equipment has stopped working, and a large number of ELID-infected bodies have invaded, it is already very difficult to reduce the damage and pollution of those infected bodies to the city as much as possible.As for repairing the quarantine wall and restarting the purification tower, if the purification tower and the quarantine wall had not been blown up, it might have been possible. Now... don’t even think about it."In other words, defend the quarantine wall, clean up the infected people inside and outside the city, and, by the way, wipe out all the Paradeus who are making trouble in the city, right?"Hearing Ulrich's words, Renault couldn’t help but pull up the corners of his mouth. This is a big deal. After so long, there is finally a decent commission.Seeing Renault’s upturned mouth, UMP45 sitting not far from Renault couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. The commission that made Renault laugh was obviously very generous. It was a pity for HK416. That girl had just replaced her body and should not have reached the standard for combat at present.However, this time, because Renault adjusted the growth curve of the biomass body, the growth time required for the biomass body was greatly shortened.Although HK416 has not yet reached the combat standard set by Renault, compared to ordinary tactical dolls... there is no need to compare them at all. This is not something that can be used for comparison.It's a bit strange. In the past, when there might have been commissions like this, HK416 was always the most active one.Why hasn't she shown up until today? Is she addicted to tossing MDR?It shouldn't be the case. AR15 and HK416 are just hot-blooded and on a whim. They won’t keep on tossing MDR all the time.Just thinking about it, UMP45 saw Renault throw the phone in his hand to Helian."Here, you come to negotiate the price. Remember to ask for more. This job is not something that everyone can do. I’ll go to the bridge first."On the way to the bridge, a simple and clear combat plan was outlined by him.The first thing to deal with is the ELID-infected that are pouring into the city. After cleaning them up, they can send SCVs to repair the quarantine wall and block the infected's route.Then we will repair the purification tower and clean up the remaining ELID-infected people and Paradeus in the city.As for the rebels they met on the way, those who are willing to surrender can be put aside, and the others will be killed.Renault has already finalized the general action plan, but Ulrich has been silent for a long time, listening to the words that came into the microphone before Renault left...What do you mean by asking for more? Just because no one else can do it in time, you can ask for a lot?Then Helian showed her affirmation with her actions.This operation is not an ordinary freight commission, but a job that requires the T-Dolls at home to take up weapons and go to the battlefield. Helian naturally will not think about saving money for the other party, so she shouted out an outrageous price."One... two hundred million—!?"Ulrich's sudden exclamation made K and Roshchin shrink their necks. Their faces twitched, and they had to curse Renault in their hearts. How can you shout out a price this big?"This is a reasonable price calculated based on your mission entrustment. Of course, this is the total price after the entire combat operation is completed. If you don't need our help to clear out the ELID-infected and those Paradeus, this price can be halved.""Uh...ah? What do you do then?"Just as Ulrich said this, Helian looked down at the tablet in her hand. The general combat plan sent by Renault was just a few sentences. It was simple to say, and it was probably just as simple to do in practice.Of course, that was for them."Clean up the ELID-infected outside the quarantine wall, repair the quarantine wall, and restart the purification tower."These two tasks are the simplest for them now, especially for those ELID-infected outside the city. It has been a long time since the purification tower was blown up. Under the current concentration of collapse radiation, it is unlikely that there are survivors.Therefore, as long as they are confirmed by the detection system of the spacecraft, they can directly use the main cannon of the spacecraft to attack the outer city area.After that, the SCV will be shipped out to repair the quarantine wall and the purification tower. Although Renault did not have the construction blueprints of the quarantine wall and the purification tower, they came here just to deal with the emergency. There is no need to repair these two exactly the same as before. As long as it does not affect the function, the style is similar."Repair... Do you still have this kind of business?"This is something that Ulrich, K, and others did not expect.They originally thought that Renault and others were just fighting ELID-infected people and mutants, but they did not expect that they would also take on the task of repairing the quarantine wall!"It just happens to be able to carry out temporary repairs, it's no big deal. If we only need to clear the ELID-infected outside the city, the price can be half cheaper. Of course, this naturally can't be called saving the city."As long as the quarantine wall is not repaired, the ELID-infected outside the city can continue to enter the city. Forget about the blockade. That is a long-term job, which is obviously not practical for Renault who does not have enough manpower.And the problem of collapse radiation can't be solved by just clearing some of the ELID-infected outside the city. The source of collapse radiation is not these ELID-infected. These guys can only be regarded as low-dose radiation sources at best.Perhaps because she has been with Renault for a long time, Helian's speech style at this time has more or less that flavor, and if she doesn't say so, Ulrich will probably have a long speech with her here, and then inevitably some moral kidnapping or something.Helian didn't think Renault would be interested in discussing ideals or Roxartism with Ulrich. Since he had already reached the bridge, the weapon system inside the spacecraft must have started to operate at this moment.What she had to do was to quickly get Ulrich to nod her head and agree to the deal. Time waits for no one.Although it was a big deal, it was not worth spending too much time here. Efficiency was the most important thing!Raising her hand to push the frame on her nose, the reflective lens covered Helian's slightly narrowed eyes.Of course, among the few people present, only Ulrich had the qualification to agree to this large deal. Neither K nor Roshchin had this authority.Faced with Roshchin, who raised his hand to indicate that she would make her own decision, and K, who stood beside her without saying a word, Ulrich pondered for a moment and finally nodded in agreement."I will solve the problem of remuneration. Please tell Mr. Renault, Miss Helian, to do your best!"Although the price is a bit outrageous, it is still within her ability. If she grits her teeth, she can still accept it."Well, this is natural. Oh, by the way, if possible, please stay away from some buildings with weak structures. There may be some small vibrations in a while."After Helian finished speaking, the phone was hung up.Ulrich turned her head to look at K in confusion.Small vibrations? What does it mean?Buzz——Just when K was thinking about what words to use to answer Ulrich's question, a sudden sound suddenly rang in everyone's ears.It was not a sharp and piercing sound, but a faint low hum. This sudden low hum seemed to have some kind of magic, like a drum beating repeatedly on the heart.This strange feeling made everyone present stunned, but then, K and others immediately felt a creepy feeling, and their hair stood on end! Almost every pore was reminding their bodies! Danger! Extremely dangerous!However, this feeling came so quickly that K and others didn't even have time to shout "be careful" or something like that, as a deafening roar suddenly sounded from the direction outside the city!Boom! Rumble!Crack! Bang!The violent shaking of the ground directly made the surrounding buildings creak.Ulrich, who was unstable, sat down on the spot. Roshchin was not much better. K and the remaining agents were still standing, but they just barely maintained their bodies and didn't fall to the ground in embarrassment.Fortunately, at this time, Gentiane rushed over with a group of human figures, dragging Ulrich and others away from this small open space.Although this is an open space, it is not too far from the surrounding buildings. If you continue to stay here, you may be hit on the head by the broken pieces of the buildings.A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Only a fool would hold on to a few dangerous buildings as a lifeline at this time."Hurry up! Move! Are Renault and the others finally unable to bear it and take out the big guns in their pockets to show them off!?"Gentiane carried Ulrich and shouted loudly while running, but there was a little bit of excitement in her words.And after being carried on her shoulders, after the initial confusion, Ulrich now felt terrified and a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She felt that she was about to vomit last night's dinner.Taking this opportunity, Ulrich also raised her head and looked in the direction of the roar before. Just by looking at it, the doubts and questions in her heart before were all suppressed by herself.The mushroom cloud rising high in the sky in the distance has already explained everything. Even if the opponent did not really use fission weapons, but... the power is probably not far off."This... this power... Isn't he afraid that the explosion will blow up the collapsed radioactive dust and send it to other areas?" K, who was supported by T-Doll, stared and shouted in disbelief.He thought that because he had a spaceship, Renault might bombard the ELID-infected and mutants outside the city, and he also thought that the T-Dolls on Renault's spaceship might rush down wearing power armor or mechas and rush and kill those ELID-infected...But he didn't expect Renault fire a big explosion outside the quarantine wall!Chapter 1002: Smooth Landing"What!"The eye-catching mushroom cloud outside the city was noticed not only by Ulrich and the others. Yegor, who had just reorganized the team and was moving toward the direction of Gentiane and the others, was also quick to notice it. As soon as the roar sounded, he saw it."Captain! What is that!?""Don't panic. Wait and see if the radiation levels have increased.""The reading is normal, but the collapse radiation index is rising. It is speculated that the collapse radiation dust raised by the explosion is spreading around. The speed is not fast and is still within the normal range."Several soldiers patted their Geiger counters in a strange way. They had all seen the mushroom cloud, but the counters were silent, making them wonder if they were broken.Yegor’s face twitched when he heard this. The noise was so loud, yet the result was only a slight rise in radioactive dust. This technology isn't new, but at this moment—at this time—who could have done this?It must have been the security contractor named Renault... The fighter jet that appeared earlier, and the two guys in flight suits—they had to be Renault!It’s him again! Why does he always jump out to cause trouble!?"Captain? Can we really continue the mission in this situation?"One of the soldiers asked. The combat force had already suffered heavy losses. If this continued..."The mission continues. Our target is only Griffin, and those guys can't keep jumping out every time to cause trouble!"Yegor said this, but as soon as he did, even he was unsure. After all, Renault’s people always appeared out of nowhere, and there was no way to predict when or why they would show up!This time, they were just passing by. Next time, maybe they’ll be hired, or maybe they’ll just be visiting friends and family. God knows what their reason for showing up again is!This time, they didn’t even engage with the T-Dolls. They didn’t say a word and just beat them up...... It seems they didn’t communicate before.The reason was only discovered after an investigation...The commander’s orders were clear, so the rebel soldiers had to bite the bullet and continue on their way. However, the Hydra and Cyclops units that had been severely damaged had to be destroyed on the spot. Fortunately, these military models had a self-melting function, so there was no risk of them being traced back.After losing a batch of android units, Yegor and the others didn’t slow down but instead accelerated toward the Griffin team's position.Of course, this came at the cost of rapid energy depletion, but it didn’t matter. It was wasteful to conserve it anyway. If Renault’s dolls sniped them again, it would be an even bigger waste.As for how to evacuate after completing the mission?That depended on when the local city defense army and Renault restarted the automatic defense system on the quarantine wall.As long as that system isn’t online, they can evacuate the hellhole at any time by transport plane.If they’re only dealing with Griffin and Paradeus, Yegor believed he could hold out for a while. At least, he would be able to hold out until the transport plane arrived....Boom!Another roar that could scare anyone to death.Having almost stumbled just now, Angelia grabbed nearby bricks and stones to stabilize herself. She stared in disbelief at the second mushroom cloud rising outside the city."Is Renault crazy!? Is he trying to raze this city to the ground or what!?""I think Boss Renault is quite restrained. It seems the quarantine wall hasn’t suffered too much damage. I must admit, he actually has a useful weapon at his disposal."If the city defense army—or more accurately, the military—had this weapon, it probably wouldn’t take long to clear out most of the red zone, making the areas filled with ELID-infected and mutants more manageable.At that point, building factories or mining minerals would no longer be a problem, but unfortunately, the military doesn’t have convenient weapons like this. It’s not about power, but the weapon’s aftereffects, size, energy consumption, and so on. Only the main cannon of armored trains or warships might have this kind of power, along with aerial bombing.However, whichever method is used, it either consumes a lot of energy, is too expensive, or requires a long preparation time.Even though the energy consumption and cost of military weapons have been optimized in many ways, Angelica was certain that the cost of Renault’s weapons was not as high as the cost of military ones.However, after hearing AK12’s words, Angelica still shook her head helplessly. It would be great if Renault and she were on the same team, helping this world. In that case... no matter what it was...But sadly, it was impossible. He was not the type to be easily persuaded. Even if she took action, it was unlikely that she would change his behavior."Speaking of which, does this mean Mr. Renault received another high-reward commission this time? Maybe by the time we get there, the matter will already be resolved?""Are you overestimating Renault?" Angelica pulled the corner of her mouth in disbelief. "That guy is no philanthropist. He won’t do anything outside the scope of his commission..."As for whether unexpected situations would arise, that depended on whether the T-Dolls under his command would jump out to “meddle in others’ business.”As for Paradeus’s motives, Angelica was the only one paying attention to that. The others probably knew something, but not much. Ulrich wouldn’t consider these things part of the commission.After all, compared to a city on the brink of collapse, Paradeus’s “small” plans were insignificant.When compared to the combat forces of Paradeus, it was clear that the ELID-infected and mutants had caused far more damage to the city. Renault would likely focus on those guys as his primary cleanup targets."Hurry up! I hope Renault’s dolls don’t get ahead of us, or even if I sell you, I won’t be able to make back the money I paid for the intelligence from Renault!" Angelica spoke with a headache, giving RPK16 a blank look."Ange, there’s a signal from the Sangvis Ferri ahead."AN94 suddenly reminded, and judging by AN94's serious expression, there were likely many Sangvis Ferri forces."Tsk! Are you sure it's not a signal from Renault’s people ? That guy has quite a few Sangvis Ferri at hand.""No, there are so many Sangvis Ferri that they've exceeded the total number controlled by Commander Renault."Listening to AN94's words, Angelia felt like her head was about to explode. How come at this time, there are still Sangvis Ferri jumping out to cause trouble?Hadn't the Sangvis Ferri been dispersed before...Oh, it seems that the Sangvis Ferri Mastermind took a ride in Renault’s spaceship and ran away...Renault! You've caused so much trouble!……After two roars with a short interval, K and Roshchin's faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and Ulrich was also shocked.For such a powerful attack, the preparation time was so short...The first attack was still possible because the other party was sure that Ulrich would agree to the commission, so they made preparations in advance.But the second time was different. They only ran a few hundred meters at most.How long did it take them? Twenty seconds? Or maybe just more than ten seconds?If this kind of attack from the sky was aimed at the interior of the city, a few shots would be enough to destroy a city, but they had no time to react!"Look over there, that should be Boss Renault's new ship. Ah, the pink piece on top must be their old spaceship. Wow, it's really amazing. This new spaceship can actually carry the old one and fly together!"Looking at the gradually descending spaceship in the distant sky with a telescope, Gentiane exclaimed in amazement."This... what should we do now?" Ulrich, who also saw the spaceship through the telescope, said in astonishment.She could roughly guess what the appearance of a fully armed spaceship meant in the current world. This could be called a dimensionality reduction attack.The various technologies on that spaceship would definitely attract the covetousness of many forces, but... but who could guarantee that they could successfully get what they wanted from that spaceship?"Wait. If you feel it's not safe here, just call Helian and ask them to send someone to pick you up. It's much safer on that spaceship than on the ground."Although there might be a small accident, it's still much safer than staying on the ground and being targeted by those Paradeus with guns and grenade launchers."Haha! M4! Here I come!"Before Ulrich and the others could make a decision, SOP2's voice came from far away and appeared in everyone's sight along with the Viking fighter rushing over."SOP2!?""SOP2?" Hearing SOP2's voice, M4 and RO635 both exclaimed and let go of their hands at the same time.Plop!"Ouch!"Originally being held by the two, M16 fell to the ground without warning and let out a depressed cry."Hey! Sorry, sorry! M16, are you okay?"M16 was about to complain when she got picked up by the two again. Gentiane was also a little surprised. She didn't expect SOP2 to come so quickly. She just looked up at the Viking fighter rushing over, but she found that the thing SOP2 was driving didn't seem to be the gunship in Renault's hand.Just when everyone thought SOP2 would slow down and land, the Viking fighter didn't mean to slow down at all, and plunged straight to the ground!"Eh!? SOP2!?"The dangerous action of the Viking fighter shocked M4 and RO635 again, and they let go of the hands that were holding M16 up.Bang!M16, whose head hit the ground directly, looked up at the sky with a look of despair on her face.But it was obviously impossible for the Viking fighter to hit the ground head-on. Just a few dozen meters from the ground, the jet nozzle at the tail of the Viking fighter began to twist directly, and the entire fuselage began to deform in the eyes of everyone's worry!The Viking fighter, which was slightly smaller than the gunship, completed the transformation from a fighter to a humanoid mecha in mid-air.The mechanical feet extended from the belly of the aircraft, hitting the ground heavily, and sliding on the ground with sparks all the way!"Oh!" Witnessing this scene,   RO635 immediately widened her eyes and shouted.The way her hands were clenched into fists made it obvious that she couldn't wait to experience it herself .M4 was also somewhat surprised to see this scene. It was the first time she saw a fighter with this structure. But instead of being amazed, she was more concerned about SOP2's condition inside the fighter."SOP2? Are you okay?""Hehe! Of course I'm fine! Perfect landing!"SOP2 opened the cabin cover, stood up from the cockpit, waved to M4, and then jumped down directly from it.Just after SOP2 jumped down, two figures with flames behind them also jumped down from the top of a building not far away.With the help of the jet system behind them, they arrived in front of Gentiane and others almost in the blink of an eye."Of course she'll be fine. She just asked us how to land to look more handsome." AR15 said, raising her hand to take off her helmet. "Long time no see, M4.""M4!" SOP2 also shouted while rushing toward M4.Unfortunately, AR15 reached out and pulled her down halfway through the tackle . "Take it easy, your body hasn't been modified yet!" If she jumped forward like this, M4 might be dead."Hey, hey, hey!" Being pulled back, SOP2 scratched her head and then ran two steps to hug M4."SOP2... eh?" M4 also raised her hand to protect SOP2, but she felt her feet lighten before she could say anything, and was picked up by SOP2. "Eh!? SOP2!""By the way, were you the first to come to support?" Looking at the interaction between M4 and SOP2, Gentiane scratched her head and asked AR15. They came here really fast."Well, you can say that, but when we came, Renault hadn't received the commission from that person yet. It was purely because SOP2 wanted to come and help, and called us two to come and help. Before coming here, they helped Kalina and the others get rid of some of the rebels' self-discipline units.""Kalina? Are they okay?""It's okay. They should be here soon. They're not far behind us." AR15 pointed to the direction behind her. They had been leading the way in front, and the difference was only a few tens of seconds.Sure enough, as soon as AR15 finished speaking, the sound of the vehicle came from the direction of her finger."Commander Gentiane!"Kalina, holding the steering wheel, leaned out of the window and waved in this direction.Seeing Kalina appear, Gentiane waved her hand, and a stone in her heart fell to the ground. Fortunately, nothing went wrong.Listening to the voices of the T-Dolls and Gentiane and others, M16, lying on the ground, tried to tilt her head with sympathy.These guys... can't someone come and help me?Sure enough, even if they are all dolls, the joys and sorrows of dolls are not the same...--Chapter 1003: Customer Service"Would you like a hand?"The light above her head was suddenly blocked.M16, who was lying on her back, moved her eyes and saw UMP45 and UMP40 standing in front of her, looking at her with a smile."That's great. I thought you would be left here to rust.""Hehe, you never know. Maybe Statesec will collect you as soon as we leave."UMP45 said this. The scene in front of her made her feel like she was traveling through time and space. Fortunately or Unfortunately, it was not her who was lying on the ground, but the unlucky M16."Forget it. It's better to just blow me up with a Paradeus."Hearing this, M16 squinted her eyes and spoke with some resistance. It must not be a pleasant experience."Hmm? That's not something you would say. Shouldn't you say, 'This is my responsibility. If this is the consequence, I'll take all the responsibility!' or something like that?""But then again, why do you still have that scar, M16? Did you secretly install some weird equipment on your eyes? Like AK12?"UMP40 was a little curious about the eye patch on M16's face.She had heard about the origin of this injury from UMP45 a long time ago. The cut on UMP45's face had been repaired by Renault a long time ago.'If you want a scar, do it yourself, but if you hurt your eyes, the repair fee will be deducted from your own pocket money.'Anyway, that's what Renault said. After all, adjusting the preset size of the bionic skin is a bit of work. Renault was busy rushing to finish the work, so he didn't have the heart to meet a 'weird' request like these. The main thing is that if you let the dolls play freely with their bodies, you will be unrecognizable if you're not careful.Nagant Revolver narrowly avoided turning herself into an "ancient god" with long arms and legs.While talking, M16 was also involved. It seems that the attack from the previous Nyoto was not just an ordinary forced connection. Otherwise, there is no reason for these parts on her body to be damaged to this extent.Even the forced connection of the Mastermind did not make her lose her mobility at the beginning. There is no reason why Nyoto made her lose most of her mobility at once.She is in this state now. It is impossible not to repair it. This is probably the most embarrassing time since she woke up.Thinking of this, M16 tilted her head slightly and looked at the two gunships not far away. It is impossible to say that she is not envious.Ask which doll doesn't want to have an air-armored gunship that can be called at any time when performing combat missions, which can provide fire support and carry people to escape?Just a few minutes ago, Kalina and the others had just met with Gentiane, and within two minutes, two gunships under Renault flew over slowly.Although Ulrich and Roshchin had just witnessed Renault's efficiency, they didn't expect that the gunships would come so suddenly. After all, they didn't have time to call Renault, and he had already sent someone to pick them up.It seems that there are not many T-dolls in the gunships, as if they have never considered sending dolls to escort.However, there are still a few dolls, although some of them don't look like tactical dolls at all, especially the short and noisy one.Tsk, why doesn't she look like a doll? Could she really be a child?"Ahahaha! Quick! Vera! Take a picture! This is rare material! MDR is so embarrassed! Don't miss the chance!"MDR, who was still in the shape of a child, patted Vera's arm, asking her to take a picture of Griffin MDR's miserable appearance as soon as possible.As an 'apprentice', Vera naturally ran to the staggering Griffin MDR with swift hands and feet and took a series of pictures of her.Only after taking the pictures did she suddenly come to her senses."That... Teacher MDR, doesn't she look exactly like you? And she's wearing exactly the same clothes. In the pictures taken... she looks exactly like you?"Griffin MDR, who was suddenly dazzled by a series of flashes, frowned and was ready to curse, but when she heard Vera's words, she chuckled instead.Isn't that the truth? Anyway, once Renault's MDR posts, she will open a few more small accounts to blow some wind and throw a smoke bomb.Who can tell whether the matter is black or white in the end? Anyway, it's all MDR! I'm unlucky! That means you're unlucky! I'm embarrassed! That means you're embarrassed too!"Ha!" MDR wanted to laugh a few times, but finally just laughed dryly while looking weak. Obviously, her body was seriously damaged.But even so, Griffin's MDR still struggled to raise her mobile phone and took a photo of the girl standing behind Vera, who looked like a youth version of MDR.Then, regardless of whether the message could be sent out or not, she directly edited a post on the anonymous board."Ha! Look at this MDR, even the child's body is used!" Attached picture.jpgAs soon as the post was sent, Griffin's MDR felt that all the strength in her body was exhausted, and her consciousness was a little fuzzy.It seems that next time, she should buy a mobile phone with low-key resistance, or change to a touch screen? That saves effort..."Hey! MDR! Hey! MDR! Wake up, MDR——!"Looking at Griffin MDR who looked exhausted, MDR immediately rolled her eyes and slapped her forehead.She was careless! How could she forget about this! Although she really wanted to see this girl in trouble, but...But the other dolls and other people can't tell who is who!The ones at home... Of course, the ones at home can distinguish her, but most of those who can distinguish her are not interested in the anonymous board!"Well, hurry up, she's just down, no need to shout so loudly, carry the wounded in first, it looks like we'll have to run again soon, um, Commander Gentiane, do you want to take your truck with you?"M870 stood at the door of the gunship cabin, holding the imprint weapon on her shoulder like a stick.To be honest, holding the imprint weapon is just a habit. After all, it's power is just too weak; it can only be used to fight ordinary enemies, and when encountering those with force field shields, armor layers, or heavy protective clothing, the imprint weapon in hand is useless.But unfortunately, what they have to face now is this kind of people with full protection attributes.Military android units have armor, human soldiers wear heavy protective clothing, Paradeus use force field shields, and some Paradeus not only have force field shields but also protective clothing. Meanwhile, mechanical units are equipped with both armor and force field shields.Is that all?M870 felt somewhat thankful that she was dragged onto Renault's ship halfway. If she were still with Griffin, she might be the one hitting Paradeus with this thing in her hand, which almost resembled a fire stick.Looking at the external armor plates on the dolls, M870 suddenly felt her scalp tighten. The plates were either full of craters or had their corners broken by large-caliber bullets. As for why she didn’t see any penetration?If there had been any, would she still be able to see this doll here?"Oh, the truck... the truck isn’t needed. Even if it is brought back, it will probably be no different from being scrapped...The two cars, one large and one small, weren't brought by Kalina and the others, but were obtained locally through IOP's connections.Second-hand trucks, the quality... to be honest, wasn’t bad.After all, they were able to carry Kalina and Persica through a rain of bullets and even escape from the rebels' pursuit.But that’s about it. The two trucks were probably about to die after such a bumpy ride. Moreover, what could they do even if they were brought back? Repair and continue using them?Forget it. Even if Griffin is short on funds, it’s not that easy to save money. If the two cars break down while fleeing next time, it will truly be fatal."Well, that's good. It saves trouble. Commander Gentiane, are you leaving first, or waiting for the next trip?""Let Persica and Kalina go first. I’ll wait a while. It shouldn’t take long, right?" Gentiane spoke, turning her head to look in the direction of the quarantine wall.Renault’s spaceship had lowered its altitude to match the height of the quarantine wall where her gaze fell. The cabin door on the side was aimed at the top of the wall. It seems like something was about to jump out of the spaceship again."Yeah, just a few minutes." M870 nodded.The spaceship was now less than ten kilometers away from their current location. At the gunship's speed, it would arrive in less than a minute.Besides, after sending all the "squishy" people like Ulrich and K to the ship, the new gunship piloted by Simonov could accommodate a few more dolls.As for why Simonov didn’t bring more dolls, even though there were still vacancies on her gunship?That’s because they had spent real money, so the VIPs should be able to sit more comfortably. After spending 1.2 billion, they shouldn't have to stand like the T-Dolls, right?There were no casualties on Ulrich's side. The few operators had only sustained minor injuries from bumps and bruises, which made UL-Nurse, sent by Helian just to be safe, shrug idly.K, who was on the gunship, frowned at that moment and looked at Renate, standing in the cabin with some surprise, "RPK16?"Hearing this call, Renate raised her eyebrows and waved her fingers with a smile. "RPK16? Who is that? This agent seems to have recognized the wrong person."Mistaken? How could he have recognized the wrong person?Angelica's actions had always been under their surveillance. He naturally knew which dolls were in the rebel team. The person in front of him was clearly RPK16! Otherwise, why did the other party react when he spoke just now?"MDR! Wait for the next trip!"K, who was wavering in his heart, frowned and looked at Renate in front of him. But before he could figure out what was going on, Simonov in the driver's seat shouted to MDR, who was still taking pictures with Vera."Eh!? Eh! Wait! Wait!"Simonov's shout caught MDR who was immersed in collecting materials off guard. Unfortunately, when she came to her senses, Simonov had already controlled the gunship to take off, and UL-Nurse was still standing at the cabin door, waving at her.Faced with UL-Nurse's teasing smile, MDR was almost so angry that she jumped into the air to throw a punch.She had just come here to take pictures, not to work!Those Paradeus had been trying to capture Ulrich, an important figure, and the rebel captain named Yegor was chasing M4. If nothing unexpected happened, these two groups would probably clash directly.Although it only took a few minutes for their gunships to evacuate all the dolls, the problem was that other gunships were not far from their current location!Otherwise, why would they take Ulrich away first? Was it really for the quality of service?When did Renault ever care about the quality of service?"Hey, remember to hide well later. Don’t turn around and end up back in the infirmary."After seeing the gunship driven by Simonov leave, MDR didn’t intend to compete with the Griffin dolls for a spot on another gunship but turned her head to instruct Vera."Yeah, I understand! Uh, but Teacher MDR, I’ve studied in the training room for a long time, so I should be able to help a little, right?" Vera responded subconsciously, but then she realized that her biomass body had fully reached the combat standard. Even if it wasn’t as good as other dolls who had changed jobs to fight, she shouldn’t need to hide to avoid being a drag, right?The little Teacher MDR in front of her, however, had just changed her body not long ago, so her defense should still be a little weak...MDR and Vera’s voices naturally fell into Gentiane’s ears. She looked at UMP45 and UMP40, who had not boarded the gunship, with some curiosity. These two... seemed to have no weapons, right?Unlike M870 and Super-Shorty who subconsciously still carried imprint weapons, neither UMP45 nor UMP40 had their imprint weapons in their hands, nor did they carry any ammunition. They looked completely unarmed.So why not return with the gunship? Were they staying here just to be spectators?"Don’t worry, Commander Gentiane, the two of us won’t hold you back. Instead of staring at us now, you might as well get your HOC ready because the two groups are coming soon." UMP45 spread her hands and nodded in the direction of AR15 and UMP9."Uh, so fast?" Gentiane frowned. She immediately picked up her weapon and ordering the remaining T-Dolls to find shelter nearby and set up a defense line.If she only relied on these dolls, she would be somewhat unsure. But now, with AR15 and the other three, plus a few T-dolls under Renault, she wasn’t worried about anything going wrong.Chapter 1004: Wait a Minute"Why don't we just fight? We know where those guys are," SOP2 asked AR15 in confusion after climbing back into the cockpit of the Viking fighter.They now have battlefield information provided by the spacecraft and are well aware of the positions of the rebels and Paradeus. However, AR15, UMP45, and the others have no intention of taking the initiative to attack. Instead, they are waiting for the enemy to come to them.Hearing SOP2's words, AR15 shook her head helplessly. "It's because we know the situation of those guys that we're here! Don't you see what weapons we have in our hands? Do you want me to use these two pistols to face at least a thousand Paradeus?"You might not be tired of flying a Viking fighter and just pulling the trigger, but what about us?Rather than relying on these individual weapons and exhausting ourselves, it's better to wait here. Anyway, the gunships at home will take Gentiane and the others away soon. When that happens, there will be gunships and other heavy weapons to deal with the Paradeus.The things that G11 has worked on aren’t just the Reaper Suit, but also some equipment. After she tinkered with them, Renault had the factory department produce some for backup. After all, if there’s enough space on the ship, no one will complain about lacking equipment, right?"Uh, so that means I can leave now, right?""Who will deal with the Paradeus mechas when you leave for a while?" AR15 rolled her eyes unhappily. She really didn’t want to say it, but SOP2 was determined to go out and mess around.SOP2 had a good idea, but the Paradeus weren’t fools. After all, the Viking fighter has limitations. Although it can harass the Paradeus back and forth, it lacks the weapons to cause significant damage to their large mechas.The reason why they were abld to deal with the rebel force led by Yegor was able to cause damage was mainly due to the buildings along the road. Hundreds of kilograms or even tons of building debris fell, which was the primary cause of damage to the rebel autonomous machines.The explosives carried by AR15 and UMP9 might cause some damage to those mechs, but it’s clear that AR15 and UMP9 aren’t as reckless as SOP2.If they rushed forward, they'd inevitably be shot a few times. While it wouldn't be fatal, it would hurt, and they'd certainly be embarrassed afterward.When there’s a better choice, rushing into the middle of the rebels is never on their list of actions.This behavior is even more undesirable against Paradeus because there are too many of them. While they could probably kill a few in a short time, it's impossible to stop all the Paradeus.As for the current situation of Gentiane and the others... it's hard to describe. All they can say is that they’re somewhat behind in terms of equipment.Compared to the mechas and armored vehicles Paradeus always uses, the weapons they have wete a bit underwhelming.The conversation between SOP2 and AR15 wasn’t quiet. In fact, since SOP2 had turned on the loudspeaker of the Viking fighter, AR15's voice was broadcast alongside hers.Gentiane’s cheeks flushed. Although AR15 didn’t say it outright, it was clear why they were waiting here: They were worried they wouldn't be able to stop the Paradeus mechas and armored vehicles.It was always safer for them to stay here and defend than to rush out and get caught off guard.But there was another problem: It seemed that the dolls on Renault's side weren’t nervous. Even Vera who didn’t appear to carry any weapons looked relaxed, as if she didn’t worry about how to deal with those Paradeus later.Of course, it could also be that they were preparing to deal with the rebels. According to the information from UMP45, the two groups were about to rush over, and as planned, they would fight each other without interfering with one another.This inevitably disappointed Gentiane, who had been hoping for a confrontation between the Paradeus and the rebels."Hey! You guys! Stop rubbing and pinching me! What are you talking about? Be serious! Can you act a little more like tactical dolls?" MDR shook off the hands trying to rub her cheeks and "roared" at the other dolls in a childish voice.'She's furious! She's furious!''She looks cute even when she’s angry!''She must be very comfortable as a pillow!'A group of T-dolls with communication protocols started exchanging their thoughts in the communication channel without speaking.But MDR wasn’t stupid. She could tell exactly how these dolls were talking about her in the communication protocol!"Damn it! You guys! Stop spreading rumors! Otherwise, you won’t get any food when you get on our ship!" MDR stamped her foot angrily, glaring at the dolls surrounding her, and ordering them to work. She wanted to take out her lightsaber and give them a thorough scolding!"No food to eat? Teacher MDR, G36 would definitely not agree to your request, right?"Hearing this, Vera asked dryly. MDR was really bold. G36 had always been in charge of food, after all."Hmph! It's okay! Isn't there Helian? With my current appearance, as long as I act like a spoiled child, like those three Nytos, such a simple request will definitely be no problem! That woman is easy to deal with!"Act... act like a spoiled child? Easy to deal with?The nonsense that came out of MDR's mouth immediately made Vera's eyes widen in shock. How dare you say such a thing? Aren't you afraid that Helian will really make things difficult for you once she goes back?Gentiane naturally saw the interaction between MDR and Vera, as well as the other dolls. The two without weapons seemed fine, but M870 and Super-Shorty were no better.The imprint weapons in their hands were casually held, looking as though they were just holding fire sticks. M870 even raised her hand to play with the stick...Are you guys really here to carry out a mission, or are you lot just playing?"Don't worry, Commander Gentiane. There will be no problem. The gunship will definitely return in time before those Paradeus guys arrive. Don’t worry." UMP40 waved at Gentiane, trying to ease her tension.Gentiane pulled the corner of her mouth and nodded, but she couldn’t relax. After all, not everyone can be as carefree as you, right?...."The current situation is very clear. I think even you wouldn't care about the life of Ms. Ulrich, right? So, what about what I want?"Away from the battlefield city, an unknown "transaction" or scam is taking place.Statesec is completely in the dark about the news from that city. Under Paradeus’ intelligence blockade, there is no information at all, not even a single communication signal has been sent out.The city is now like a completely dead zone.But even so, Statesec dares not gamble. Compared to a research facility sealed by the Relics Bureau, the importance of Ulrich is self-evident.However, just when Statesec was forced to hand over the key to activate the gate of the research facility to ensure Ulrich’s life, Ulrich, who came to the Renault's spacecraft on a gunship, was frightened by the situation in the hangar."What is this...!?"Looking at the SCVs parked at other exits in the hangar and the busy Sangis dolls, Ulrich paused mid-step as she was about to approach the cabin door."Don't worry, there won’t be any problems. Please follow me, and I'll take you to the lounge.Renate smiled and walked ahead, extending her hand to lead the still-worried group eho were concerned that the Sangis dolls might suddenly attack toward the elevator.Of course, there would be no dolls carrying things back and forth in the personnel elevator. Helian had repeatedly stated her request, and no doll would violate it at this important moment.After all, most of the dolls on the entire ship were occupied with their tasks. Except for the few dolls responsible for reception, most of them had work to do.This commission was a big order. If only a few T-dolls were dispatched casually, what if the client thought they were being perfunctory and lowered the price?Although it was a personnel elevator, the size of the spacecraft allowed it to be very spacious for Ulrich and her companions.K stood beside Ulrich, watching Renate and UL-Nurse standing by the door with vigilance. His hand was already on the handle of his gun. At the slightest wrong move, he would attack these two dolls who didn’t look like "good people."Roshchin also took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Of course, if possible, he would have liked to wash his face. After all, he had been running through the sewers all the way here, so it was inevitable that he was a bit dirty.Due to K and others' nervousness and vigilance, the atmosphere in the elevator was inevitably a bit quiet. In the stillness, they could even hear K and others’ breathing. If the elevator floor display panel hadn’t been working normally, they would have thought they were locked in the elevator.Although it was only about thirty seconds, it still made K and the others feel like several minutes had passed.As the elevator reached the top floor, Ulrich and the others held their breath, fearing that when the elevator doors opened, they would be greeted by dolls pointing guns at them.However, this situation was obviously impossible. Most of the dolls on the ship were busy, and only a few dolls who came from the restaurant to help remained to receive them."Welcome aboard, Chairman Ulrich, Ambassador Roshchin, and all the operators. I am Helian Tus, the manager of Renault Security Contracting Company."The person who appeared outside the elevator door was not a tactical doll with a gun, but Helian, who had taken off her monocle.Upon seeing Helian, Ulrich and the others breathed a sigh of relief. But after the tension in their hearts dissipated, they couldn't help but feel curious as to why Helian had left Griffin and come to the less famous Renault Security Contracting Firm.But this curiosity quickly faded. After all, Griffin and Renault were no match. One side only had some tactical dolls and was being chased by Paradeus and the rebels, while the other side even had a spaceship and could go wherever it wanted...If it was just for career planning, one could choose wherever to go with their eyes closed, right?With Helian as a living person, and Renate and UL-Nurse also leaving the team and returning to the infirmary, Ulrich and her team felt much more relaxed.It was just that there was no decoration in the spaceship’s corridor. It all looked like metal structures, which inevitably gave people a feeling of depression.Noticing that everyone’s eyes were on the metal walls, Helian raised an eyebrow. "I'm sorry, the ship was just completed recently, so the interior has not yet been decorated."Well, after completing this order, she'll design it carefully. This time they had a huge commission, so there’s no need to worry about the cost of decoration materials for the spaceship."Just completed?" Ulrich was a little surprised. After all, such a huge ship generally wouldn't be put into use immediately after construction, right?When she had been sitting on the gunship just now, she had already seen that the gunship was actually a small insect-level flying vehicle compared to the spaceship she was now on."If possible, could you tell me how many years this ship was built? Of course, if it’s inconvenient, forget it." Roshchin standing aside couldn't hold it in any longer. He took his eyes off the dark metal walls and asked Helian."Hmm? That's nothing. It took about two months, which isn't a long time." Helian tilted her head and thought about it, also factoring in the time taken to build the dock. After all, the original time might sound a bit shocking."Two... two months..." Hearing Helian say this, and seeing her serious expression that didn’t seem fake, the group fell silent.A ship of this level, or rather, a spaceship... was actually built in such a short time...So, if Renault really wanted to, could they build several of these huge air fortresses in a year?Compared to the air fortresses and stratospheric fortresses in history, this thing isn’t even worthy of the word fortress!When they just passed through an airlock, the gate alone was half a meter thick! Not to mention the thicker hull next to it!"We're here. This is the lounge. However, due to the rush, the guest rooms are still being prepared. Please wait a moment."Leading everyone to the door of the lounge, Helian spoke, turning her head to look at Susanna and the others who were going in and out of several guest rooms not far away.Chapter 1005: We'll Know in a MomentHiss!K sank into the soft sofa and let out an unconscious gasp. The sofa was indeed comfortable, but it wasn’t enough to make him feel this way.After relaxing, the pain from the small wounds all over his body began to surface one by one.Fortunately, none of them were serious injuries. Those who were severely injured either collapsed on the road or took the initiative to cover the rear. There was no need to dwell on their final outcome.Ulrich and Roshchin sitting next to him were not much different. Fortunately, they had no wounds. At most, they felt fatigued, with weak legs and feet.Thankfully, they had already cleaned up in the bathroom, so there was no need to worry about falling asleep on the sofa in such a stinky state.Originally, Helian had prepared guest rooms for Ulrich and Roshchin, and even K and the others had a relatively large lounge to rest in.However, it was clear that Ulrich and Roshchin were more concerned about the situation than closing their eyes to sleep. They needed to wait until the initial task promised by Renault—repairing the quarantine wall—was completed before they could rest easy.After all, if Renault couldn’t do it, their only option would be to send a distress signal and have the military send people over.At that point, they could only hope to save what they could...As for why they didn’t contact the military immediately after boarding the ship… Well, it’s a complicated issue. They were still worried that since they had just reached a verbal agreement with Renault, contacting the military now might anger him, and who knows what he would do in response?After all... there were so many Sangvis personnel on the ship, which really put pressure on them......Unlike Ulrich and the others who had complicated thoughts, Renault wasn’t concerned about these things. If he knew what Ulrich and the others were thinking, he’d probably just shrug and say, “You’re overthinking this.”He didn’t care about contacting the military because by the time the military arrived with a large force and various equipment, his work would already be done. If they wanted to contact him, they could, but he didn’t care either way.“SCV first maintenance team is ready.”“Group two is ready as well.”Four SCVs were divided into two groups, the tools on their mechanical arms replaced, and the materials needed to repair the quarantine wall loaded into the additional material boxes on their backs.“Let’s go.” Scarecrow looked down at the tablet in her hand, then at the spare materials piled up at the back of the hangar, nodded, and waved toward the cockpits of M200 and Type 80.“Got it.” M200 and Type 80 nodded in response, controlling their respective SCVs to jump down from the hangar hatch.MP5 and CF05, also driving SCVs, followed closely behind.The four SCVs immediately activated their thrusters after jumping out of the hatch, controlling their falling speed. Although the spacecraft was only about 100 meters above the quarantine wall, the SCVs couldn’t land directly on top of it.There wouldn’t be a problem with the SCVs or the dolls in charge of piloting them. The key issue was the direct damage to the quarantine wall. Therefore, for safety’s sake, they had to land on the ground before making repairs.“Why can’t there be more people? Just a few of us, and we’re expected to handle two jobs each?”Before landing, CF05, feeling a little restless, started speaking over the communication channel.“Of course, there aren’t enough people. It’s a big city. You’re lucky to have four people coming to repair the quarantine wall. Be grateful—it means M200 and I are in better condition. Otherwise, I’m afraid you two would have to do it alone,” Type 80 said lazily, leaning back in the chair as they exited the spacecraft.M200, as usual, remained silent, though their curiosity was piqued as they looked down at the quarantine wall below. After hearing Type 80’s comment, M200 nodded in agreement.MP5 and CF05 exchanged glances, speechless. If it were just the two of them, they’d have to drive the SCVs to repair the quarantine wall, jump out of the cockpits to deal with the potential infected or defected city defense forces, and even handle sporadic Paradeus attacks...That would be a real hassle! It would take forever to repair the quarantine wall!“Alright, let’s get started. CF05 and I will go over there. Type 80, you and MP5 handle this side.”“No problem.” Type 80 stretched out a hand, signaling with an “OK” gesture, as they controlled their SCV to fly toward the nearest section of the quarantine wall.Well, fly over. Although SCVs have legs, what serious SCV driver would walk with them when they could glide using thrusters?……“What’s that?”Although the distance was a bit far, Gentiane held a telescope in her hand. With her current eyesight, it was a piece of cake for her to see the SCVs descending from the spacecraft."SCV, the engineering equipment from home. They should be going to repair the quarantine wall," UMP45 narrowed her eyes, looked in the direction of the quarantine wall, then turned around to face the other direction.That was the direction the Paradeus were coming from. If nothing unexpected happened, they would be able to see the Paradeus mecha in about a minute.Engineering equipment? I don’t believe you… Whose engineering machinery looks stronger than military mecha? And the thrusters behind it... It can parachute from 200 meters in the air without a parachute and even fly with thrustersIf this is an engineering mech, then what is the thing Papasha usually drives? A broken iron frame?However, seeing UMP45's expression at the moment, Gentiane knew that now was not the time to chat and complain. They had set up a temporary position here, and now they were waiting for the Paradeus to come.But didn’t UMP45 just say that the gunship would be back soon? It’s almost been three minutes, or five minutes?Just when Gentiane was wondering if time was passing too slowly, the gunship that had been pulling Kalina and Persica also flew out of the spaceship.Another gunship followed behind. Seeing the two gunships quickly approaching in the sky, Gentiane’s previously tense nerves relaxed, but she immediately started to worry again.After all, this commission was a task assigned to Griffin by Statesec, but now it had been directly taken over by Renault. They even used Renault’s spaceship. She wondered if this guy would turn around and ask her for transportation fees afterward...She could only say that she was overthinking. For Renault, bringing Griffin’s dolls together was just a bonus in front of the 1.2 billion order.And if Helian is happy later, she might even give some money to Gentiane as publicity expenses.If Gentiane hadn’t reminded them, Ulrich and the others might not have thought of Renault.After all, for such a huge commission, no one would have expected that Renault, a mere security contractor, would have such great capabilities.Now, Renault's ship was like an intelligence black hole for various intelligence agencies. Despite flying in plain sight, they couldn’t get any useful information at all.At most, they knew the movement of Renault’s ship, but what good was just knowing its movement?They had almost no idea what Renault had in his hands or what abilities his dolls possessed.Although they managed to uncover the rough list of Renault's dolls, each one was almost completely different from the previous tactical dolls.All the information about the body performance, abilities, and expertise had been overturned. Aside from a list, it seems that nothing was known.This feeling of knowing practically nothing except the name and appearance of Renault's dolls was the most frustrating thing for all intelligence agencies.Gentiane was worrying and guessing, but UMP45 shrugged her shoulders. Since the gunship had already set off, she wouldn't have to do anything for a while.However, the relief in her heart didn’t last for long. UMP45’s face changed, and she sighed bitterly."Ah."UMP40 was wondering why UMP45 sighed, but before she could finish her words, her face changed. Unlike UMP45’s miserable expression, she was a bit helpless but also excited.It’s nice to play with cats at home all day, but you can’t just keep doing that! Everyone would want to do something else to change their mood, right? Isn’t this the opportunity? The skills she worked so hard to learn are finally being put to use!The strange expressions on the two people's faces made Gentiane stunned. "You? Are you performing a pantomime?""Uh? Ah?" Hearing this, UMP45 and the others blinked and then chuckled. "No, we just received an order from Boss Renault. We may not be able to sit still in a while.""Can't sit still? What do you mean? Aren’t you going back with the gunship?""Well, the gunship is almost here anyway. When it arrives, you’ll know why they delayed for a few minutes just now.""Uh? No, can’t you just say it directly?""No, no, no, that’s so boring."Looking at UMP45’s shaking fingers, Gentiane could only roll her eyes. She silently cursed UMP45’s bad taste in her heart.Fortunately, the Renault gunship was very fast. It didn’t take long for her to see the gunship fly out of the spaceship’s hangar. About two or three minutes later, the gunship arrived above her and the dolls.This speed was less than the quarter of an hour, the time it took to evacuate Ulrich, Kalina, and others. This was already very fast compared to Griffin's transport plane.When they dealt with the Sangvis Ferri before, they only had a short while to hold out. How much time did they have this time? It should’ve been at least an hour, right?But now… these two or three minutes was crucial...Because the Paradeus mechas were about to charge!Gentiane had already seen the upper hatches of the Doppelsoldner mechs!Seeing this, Gentiane didn’t have time to continue tangling with UMP45 about riddles or beating around the bush. She immediately called the T-Dolls who had already taken combat positions and pointed their guns toward the Paradeus attackers.The previous group of T-dolls who boarded the gunship with Kalina and Persica mostly had submachine guns and assault rifles. The dolls who stayed behind had either machine guns or rifles.These large-caliber, full-power rounds could still cause some damage to the mecha's surface.Of course, if it were just the armor plates, even the assault rifle's fire wouldn’t have much effect, but the problem was that these Paradeus combat units were all equipped with force field shields.Even if they weren’t real force fields, they would at least have a set of deflection force field generating devices that reduced the damage.To completely destroy these guys, aside from using a large amount of ammunition for continuous fire, they would need more powerful rounds.That’s why Gentiane had ordered Kalina and Persica to evacuate with the dolls first. Staying behind wouldn’t have been very useful. They were all gathered together now, so there was no need for anyone to go out for reconnaissance or fight alone.These remaining dolls could still play a role. They were definitely capable of fighting the ordinary Paradeus Strelets. Even mechas and armored vehicles could be dealt with by a smaller number of them.The real danger now was the situation at hand... In the front were rows of Paradeus Doppelsoldner mechas, and the four mechas in front and behind were like the Four Kings, blocking the path!On the side roads, the faster Ulhan tanks were also speeding toward this direction!Bang!Without much prompting from Gentiane, the Heavy Ordinance Corps which had been prepared for a while fired directly at the rapidly approaching armored vehicles. Mortars and TOW anti-tank missiles flew straight toward the enemies!It must be said that Persica was still doing practical work. Although these weapons of the Heavy Ordinance Corps were all antiques bought from the market, they were more than enough to deal with the Paradeus force shields.While they weren’t as advanced as military-grade equipment, at least Gentiane didn’t need to have her T-dolls rely on dummmy dolls to fight against those armored units.The TOW missiles immediately destroyed an Uhlan armored vehicle, while the 2B14 mortar didn’t have an immediate effect, but it did force two armored vehicles to stop.The Heavy Ordinance Corps's attack ended there because the distance was too close. They and Gentiane’s group were also within the enemy's range.---Chapter 1006: Pingsha Luoyan Style"Retreat!"Now is not the time to hold the position. The previous attack was nothing more than an attempt to let the dolls snipe once in order not to waste the previous preparations.Now it seems that the results of just stopping a few Uhlan armored vehicles are not enough. They originally hoped that the air gunships from Renault would arrive in time, but now it seems...Although the gunships are indeed coming soon, just a minute or even a few dozen seconds away, this time is enough for Paradeus's armored vehicles and mechas to give them a bath with artillery fire!The Griffin T-Dolls have long been accustomed to Gentiane's command style. After hearing Gentiane's orders, they stood up without hesitation and evacuated from those sniper points."Well, they are really decisive. They retreat immediately when they see that things are hopeless?" UMP45 shrugged her shoulders as she watched the actions of Gentiane and the others.But aren't you a little too nervous? SOP2 is already ready."Commander Gentiane! SOP2 and the others!" M4, who subconsciously followed Gentiane and the others to retreat, immediately came to her senses after finding that UMP45 and the others were all standing there indifferent.Not only SOP2, but AR15 is also staying there now!"Huh!?" Hearing M4's shout, Gentiane turned her head sharply and saw the few T-Dolls who were still standing there without moving. MDR and the doll named Vera followed the others.But they each held a camera and a mobile phone in their hands, and it was obvious that they were filming the T-Dolls' retreat.Although she didn't know what the two were doing with the T-dolls' retreat, Gentiane knew that now was not the time to worry about these details. The real dilemma is whether to gamble that SOP2 and the others can block the attack of Paradeus, or that Renault's gunship can suddenly speed up and rush over... or just run away?"AR15? Can I do it?" SOP2 looked at the approaching Paradeus eagerly. At this distance, for the fire control system of the Viking fighter, it is a one-shot hit. If AR15 hadn't said to wait, she would have used two Gatling guns to smash these guys who rushed over!"Forget it, do you have to rush to use up the little ammunition in your magazine? Save it for those mechas. These tanks don't need you yet."The two Gatling guns equipped on the Viking fighter are specially used to target large armored units.When dealing with light armored units, it is even possible to just penetrate them without causing much damage.Therefore, it is better not to let the Viking fighter deal with these Uhlan tanks rushing in front. As for how to deal with it?Just use the same old trick.Boom!Just when Gentiane was hesitating whether to go over and remind AR15 and the others to retreat together, a series of roars gathered into a short roar, and the residential buildings on the street fell towards the center of the street!The sudden roar made Gentiane and M4 tremble, and then Gentiane's eyes twitched unconsciously.Her eyes fell on AR15 and UMP9. These two had quietly placed so many explosives on the roads that Paradeus must pass through. They seemed to have blown up half a street before, and now another street...When she thought that she might have been standing and chatting with two people with explosives that could blow up two streets...Hiss!"Eh!? When! AR15! Great explosion... No! So I didn't fire a single shot!?" SOP2 was about to cheer, but suddenly saw the Paradeus signals disappearing from the detection system.Obviously, the attack just now definitely caused serious damage to the Uhlan armored vehicles that were rushing in the front.The gunships in the air were also approaching, and SOP2 had already seen that the two gunships changed their postures during the flight, and the turrets that were originally hidden inside the body armor plate were revealed.The firepower of the two gunships... The old gunship was okay; there was not much ammunition left on it, and Renault did not intend to make the effort to produce ammunition for that kind of tank gun. There were plenty of more powerful and convenient substitutes. There was no need to produce ammunition for these two tank guns that were only used for transition. The ammo it currently has were things that were pickrd ul and recycled to meet the emergency situation. SOP2 naturally knew about this, so among the two gunships, the old gunship driven by SPAS-12 would definitely not be able to destroy many Paradeus units. The new gunship driven by Simonov would be the one that could really wipe out all the Paradeus."What are you thinking about? They still have to take Commander Gentia and the others back. They can't stay here to provide you with fire support now." AR15 sighed. Why doesn't SOP2 like to think too much? The firepower of the gunship is indeed enough to destroy all the Paradeus, but the power of the Concord artillery would definitely be too much for those mechas.Now, none of the Paradeus armored units in this city can withstand a single shot.But here's the problem. After one shot, the Paradeus mech was indeed destroyed, but the collateral damage to the city was likely to be just as severe as the earlier explosion caused by AR15 and UMP9.The damage from the collapse of the buildings on the ground wasn’t too catastrophic. It could be cleaned up and rebuilt later. However, the damage caused by the Concord artillery would be far worse.The road surfaces, public facilities, underground cables, and even the city's sewer system would likely be damaged.Paradeus was indeed destroyed, but this area of the city will be completely wiped out. This isn't the proper way to handle business. At the very least, methods that cause minimal damage to city facilities should be prioritized.Otherwise, wouldn’t it be more efficient to simply bomb everything with the spacecraft’s main cannon ?Bang!The gunship driven by SPAS-12, after deploying its turret, fired at the Paradeus mechas without hesitation.The armor-piercing high-explosive shells struck from above, and the force field shields on the two Doppelsoldner mechas at the front—just behind those mechas—barely had any effect. The shells pierced right through them.The two mechas immediately fell to the ground, crushing the Paradeus Strelet who was attempting to cross the ruins in front of it."Hey!" SOP2 yelled when she saw two of her targets disappear in an instant. The Gatling gun on her body shook and quickly locked onto the other two intact Doppelsoldner mechas behind them.Bang, bang, bang!A stream of fire shot toward the two Doppelsoldner mechas the moment SOP2 pulled the trigger!The force field shield on the mechas didn’t last even half a second under the bullet storm before it was broken by the armor-piercing rounds. Then, a series of armor-piercing bullets riddled them, turning them into Swiss cheese!"Ha! That’s it!" Seeing the two mechas fall without resistance under her fire, SOP2 eagerly looked ahead, trying to lock onto a Paradeus mecha that was farther away.Unfortunately, the actual situation didn’t allow it. Although the movements and positions of those mechas were clearly displayed in the Viking fighter's detection system, a large building stood between her and those mechas.The distance was far, exceeding two kilometers. At that range, even with the detection system showing the mechas' positions, it was unlikely that the bullets would pass through the building and accurately hit their targets."Okay, stop it. They’re here."If she hadn’t been piloting a mecha, AR15 would have wanted to raise her hand and knock SOP2 over.The two tank gun shells were just ordinary armor-piercing high-explosive rounds, not tungsten-core armor-piercing shells. The price was relatively low, and the cost wasn’t much. But SOP2 had just pulled the trigger and fired at least hundreds of machine gun rounds.What a complete waste of resources!"Also, Commander Gentiane, don’t run off yet. This place is relatively flat. If you go elsewhere, boarding the ship might be more difficult." AR15 said, turning around and waving to Gentiane.Although there should be flat areas elsewhere, running out rashly would likely bring her face-to-face with Paradeus. The battlefield data provided by the ship’s detection equipment had already exposed the positions of all the Paradeus units to AR15.In all directions surrounding this open space, except for the direction of the quarantine wall in front, Paradeus units were present. No matter where Gentiane went, she would encounter groups of Paradeus Strelets. If she was unlucky, she might even run into some Rodeleros and Nyoto."Uh, okay." Gentiane had originally planned to evacuate with the dolls to avoid grenade fire from the mechas, so she can only scratched her head when she saw this.Originally, she had to retreat to avoid the impending attack, but it had been easily handled by others. Tsk, this is the difference, she thought.Of course, the most important thing was that Gentiane was thinking, "I want a mecha too!" If she had this kind of heavy firepower , she wouldn’t have to be so stingy and careful when dealing with Paradeus.Unfortunately, this was just Gentiane's fantasy. Neither the military nor Statesec would allow Griffin to master a weapon like a mecha.No, wait—these guys, the existence of M4 was obviously more important than mechas. Why did they all wish Griffin only had old, individual weapons?Gentiane wondered, looking up at the two gunships approaching quickly, and the saw the two gunships s pening their rear cargo doors mid-air. "Huh?"The still somewhat puzzled Gentiane froze when she saw black figures jumping out of the rear hatch. She couldn’t figure out why these people had suddenly jumped out.AR15 rolled her eyes and shook her head in frustration. "These guys… what time is it?"Bang! Bang!A series of landing sounds followed, including one that sounded a bit odd...Gentiane didn’t even blink when she almost watched as five figures in black robes fell in front of her. One of them even slipped and fell to the ground due to an unstable landing.But instead of getting up immediately, the person sat cross-legged with an expression of "this is what I planned."Before Gentiane could say anything, RO635 approached with gleaming eyes, and the movie lover MG36 followed."What is this? Are you playing Sith warriors?" MG36 asked in amazement, looking at the black robes on the people in front of h34.The black outfit, plus a red lightsaber, looked exactly like Sith warriors!"Make way! Make way!"Before the group of people pretending to be serious could speak, voices came from above their heads.Another figure fell from the sky, but this time, the figure was far less slender than the previous ones. The black-painted CMC power armor landed on the ground like a cannonball!Following closely behind were two other power armors, one of which was red with flame patterns added by someone, and they landed fiercely!Boom!The several power armors that fell consecutively created deep pits in the ground, sending gravel flying everywhere, forcing Gentiane to raise her hands to protect her face."Ouch! That hurts! What are you doing? Didn’t you say we’d wait until we finished our opening remarks before coming down?!"Architect no longer sat cross-legged and pretending to be a master, she covered her forehead which had been hit by debris. She lifted her hood and shouted at NZ75 in annoyance."Hey, we’re here to help you. Who told you to do that 'flat sand and falling wild goose style'? I’m just being kind to spare you the embarrassment!" NZ75, holding back a laugh, opened the visor of the CMC power armor and spoke to the 'dwarf' architect in front of her."G11! Quick! Did you bring my robe?"Without waiting for anyone to say anything, UMP40 had already approached the first figure who landed, asking for the things the other person had brought."Sister 40, the atmosphere we worked so hard to create is ruined when you say that." G11 also lifted her hood and spoke helplessly to UMP40.Originally, they planned to jump down from a high place, show their lightsabers, and perform impressively in front of the Griffin dolls.Unfortunately, Architect, who was just meant to make up the numbers, ruined everything. After landing, she was so embarrassed she didn’t dare to speak.UMP40 didn’t care about these things. What entrance ceremony? When she shows her lightsaber later, all of those Griffin T-Dolls would be terrified!After grabbing her robe from G11, UMP40 put it on without hesitation."Uh... I just wanted to ask... What are you doing?" Gentiane asked, looking confused, as UMP40 put on the black robe seriously."Hehe!"UMP40 and G11 exchanged knowing glances and smiled mysteriously. Then they both pulled out their lightsaber hilts from their waists.Alchemist behind them also drew her lightsabers in perfect coordination.Buzz——!---Chapter 1007: Personal PreferencesA blood-red light burst from the handles in the hands of G11 and the others!After those dazzling red light beams extended to a certain length, they stopped one after another, some short and some long.Once these red lightsabers were held in the hands of G11 and the others in black robes..."Hiss! My God, am I dreaming?" MG36 exclaimed, lifting her bangs and touching her smooth forehead, staring at the lightsabers in the hands of G11 and the others.Although Gentiane was a little scared, she still didn’t quite believe it. After all, Star Wars... was outrageous, just outrageous. It shouldn’t be that outrageous ."You guys... just made an appearance, and now you're doing the whole skit with these fakes?" Shaking her head, she threw away the outrageous thoughts in her mind. Gentiane looked at G11 and the others in front of her helplessly.Especially G11. This girl even turned the lightsaber in her hand seriously, which looked very cool at first glance, immediately catching the attention of many curious Griffin T-dolls."Hehe! This isn’t a skit. Also, this isn't fake. This thing is much more useful than imprint weapons!"After UMP40 put on the black robe, she looked a bit like a Sith Warrior at first glance, and the naivety of just being an ordinary civilian doll was also covered by the black robe.As UMP40 said this, just like G11 and the others before, she took out a lightsaber handle with UMP45's photo sticker from her waist. She shook her little hand, and a red lightsaber appeared.The buzzing sound echoed, just like the real thing.RO635's eyes went wide, and the same was true for MG36 next to her. However, just as the two subconsciously moved toward UMP40, planning to get closer to see it clearly, M4 quickly reached out and pulled them back."That... RO! MG36! We should go!"As soon as M4's voice was heard, the T-dolls present snapped back to their senses, and even Gentiane scratched her cheeks a little embarrassedly.It was all G11's fault. They did this right at the start, leaving a group of T-dolls, along with her, stunned. They almost forgot that the evacuation gunship they had been waiting for had already arrived and was waiting for them to board."I say, can you hurry up? Time waits for no one, Commander Gentiane," Simonov turned around, raised her hand, and patted the back of the chair, calling out to Gentiane."Here we come!"Shaking her head and dispelling the curiosity in her heart, Gentiane responded while commanding the Griffin dolls to board the two gunships, which were hovering about one meter off the ground.There was no need for the dolls to climb in. With the inclination of the rear hatch, they could walk in with a slight lift of their feet.The space inside the two gunships wasn’t too large, but it wasn’t small either. There was enough room for these dolls under Gentiane’s command and their dummy dolls. They could only stand, but it only took two or three minutes to get in and out, which wasn’t a big deal for them."Really, look, we were completely ignored. If I had known, I would have pretended to be like Architect like now," MG42 spoke , shaking the C14 rifle in her hand with some dissatisfaction."Okay, who told you not to pass the lightsaber test? If you came down with toys like Architect, would you have to run over and swing your fists when you fight those Paradeus later?" MG34 raised her hand and poked MG42's back."Architect...""She's carrying a weapon, she’s not stupid." NZ75 raised her hand and pointed at the inconspicuous bulge behind Architect and Gager. "And the lightsaber in her hand is not a toy.""What? No? Could it be that she passed...?"MG42 was about to scream when she heard this. She saw Gager raise her hand to take the lightsaber from Architect, and then connect it to the handle of her own lightsaber.Architect smiled and raised her hand to remove a sizable weapon part from Gager's back. She then combined it with some parts on her back to assemble a large C10 rifle, with a barrel as thick as two fingers."Ah, so it’s that one. Tsk, this lazy guy." After seeing the weapon in Architect’s hands, MG42 curled her lips speechlessly.If we're only talking about power, the weapon in Architect's hands was indeed not weak at all. But MG42 had never considered this weapon, because the firing rate was too slow compared to the C14 rifle in her hands.Just like Vector, who, the moment she saw the Fire Bat Power Armor, held it tightly and refused to let go.If it weren't for the M1 Garand not allowing it, Vector would probably have worn this power armor directly into her own dormitory.The following scene was also seen by Gentiane, who was standing by the cabin door. Seeing Architect’s smiling expression, Gentiane’s eyes twitched.She was from Renault alright. Otherwise, even if it was a Griffin doll, she definitely wouldn’t allow these dolls to do these after arriving on the battlefield.Just to show off, but without any weapons on their bodies? How can they fight?RO and MG36, standing nearby weren’t looking at Architect, but at Gager next to her.Because of Gager’s action, after she connected the lightsaber she took back from Architect to the handle of her own lightsaber, the ordinary lightsaber instantly turned into a double-headed lightsaber. In addition, Gager subconsciously turned the lightsaber handle, which made the lightsaber in her hand look even more like the real thing."Oh, oh!"However, just as the two ROs exclaimed, the rear hatch of the gunship closed. "Ah! Don't! Let me take another look!""Hey, hey! Don’t move around. When you go back, go find MDR yourself. You’ll definitely see it in the livestream," Simonov turned around and shouted.This commissioned operation is relatively large, and there are naturally a lot of valuable shooting materials. Of course, MDR and Vera alone can't shoot many scenes.So before the operation, MDR had already discussed with Helian and asked all the T-Dolls participating in the operation to wear recording equipment to facilitate real-time livestream, so that the client can see their abilities. At the same time, these images can be edited and put on that almost unvisited website as a promotional video.As for the information leak, tsk, do we still need to care about this now?And the appearance and the leaked body data, so what if someone sees it? Except for the lightsaber, which of these things Renault took out doesn’t look stupid, big, black, and rough?The truly valuable things are all inside, and there is no reference value at all for looking at the appearance and measuring the data."Can you still do something like this?"Livestream? If one wants to see trouble, you can look at MDR...Gentiane smacked her lips and thought, but then she thought of the t-dolls under her, and it seemed that many of them had been engaged in the livestream industry.Damn, will her dolls not be tempted to change jobs by the generous treatment of Renault? Even she herself has the intention of changing jobs... Aren't those dolls even more...In worry, the two gunships quickly returned to the hangar of the spacecraft. When the rear hatch of the gunship reopened, Gentiane was a little slow to react. It was too fast. They had already evacuated from the dangerous city in just a moment of daze.After coming to her senses, Gentiane felt uncomfortable again. This feeling became more serious after she walked out of the gunship.Because she saw a group of T-Dolls wearing power armor, sorting out their equipment, and waiting to set off.In addition to these power armors, there were also huge SCVs on standby. She even saw several tanks that looked very thick and had never been seen before parked in the hangar.The T-dolls were checking something around the tanks. Obviously, this thing would be put into battle soon.Sour!Jealous!Why doesn't Griffin have these excellent conditions! What about being the top security contractor?Not staying in the hangar for too long, Gentiane and others were soon led by the dolls sent by M1 Garand to other places in the spacecraft, that is, the lounge. When passing by those empty cabins on the way, Gentiane wanted to occupy one cabin directly.Although those cabins looked empty, they were really spacious! This was much better than her cramped command vehicle!And there was not much space in the command vehicle at all. At most, it could accommodate one or two direct teams, and the remaining dolls could only stay in other places.If they were in the Griffin base, it would be fine. During the mission, they could only set up a tent and camp. Sometimes they could only make do in the aisle of the command vehicle."Oh, Gentiane, you came quite quickly. I thought you would fight with those Paradeus for a while down there."Persica, who had been on the gunship with Ulrich and others before, had already arrived in the lounge. She was now curled up in a lazy sofa, holding a cup of Springfield's special high-sugar coffee... or sugar water, and waved to Gentiane with a comfortable face."It's not that long in total. Where's Kalina? Where are the other T-dolls?" Gentiane tugged at her collar and turned her head to look around. She didn't see Kalina and the other dolls."They're going to the upper deck for a meal. Do you want to go? Remember to remind Kalina to bring me some when you get there."Persica obviously didn't plan to go there in person. After all, she had seen how big this ship was. Even if there was an elevator, it would take at least a few hundred meters to walk there, right?You didn't seem to do much, did you? Are you so lazy?Since the beginning of the operation, Persica has been following Kalina. She has been sitting in the passenger seat all the way. She didn't drive or do anything. Why does she look so tired now?"No, I just want to take a shower and have a good sleep."The commission has been handed over to Renault. She is now completely free of worries. If she doesn't take this opportunity to relax, who knows what troubles will come next."Hmm, do you want Kalina to bring you some food later?""Do I need to ask?"Take off her coat and walk towards the cabin with the word "washroom" written on it, she hoped that the faucet in this cabin can be used normally.But obviously, her worries are completely unnecessary because there is even a bathtub in it.What a luxury...While complaining in her heart, Gentiane fell asleep in the bathtub in a daze. Even she would be tired after running all the way here...."Can these people really do it?"Just as Gentiane and others arrived at the spaceship, K and a group of agents also stood in front of a screen, looking at the live broadcast provided by Helian with some suspicion.Except for the robes, those above look completely unarmed dolls, which really surprised them.Although they are tactical dolls, isn't it a bit too much to go to the battlefield without any weapons?While K's colleagues were asking questions, a group of people saw the glowing lightsabers in those dolls' hands from NZ75's perspective. This scene stunned K and Ulrich, who were also staring at the screen.Are you guys going to perform a mission or a show? It's not a good time to do this, right?However, their doubts didn't last too long, because the few dolls who came down this time couldn't help it. This was their first time to use lightsabers in actual combat. How could they not be excited?Especially Alchemist. Her long-term work in the slaughterhouse didn't eliminate her urge to fight. Shortly after the two gunships withdrew, Alchemist put away the red lightsaber.Instead, there was a pair of azure wrist blades that extended from her wrists as she shook her hands."This one suits me better."Facing G11's hesitant expression, Alchemist smiled, and the whole person disappeared in an instant, rushing towards the Paradeus who were rushing over!"Hey! Didn't we agree to use red lightsabers together!?" Type 56-1 shouted in surprise, but she had already rushed out with Alchemist.G11 and UMP40 certainly couldn't just stand there. They had finally waited for this opportunity, so they couldn't let Alchemist and the others steal the limelight!Gager didn't rush out but instead gave a few instructions to Architect, and then followed behind G11 and the others, but she adjusted the color of the double-headed lightsaber in her hand to blue while running.Chapter 1008: Be Quiet!The unbelievable scene on the screen made Ulrich and the others open their mouths, wanting to speak but unable to. Just when they couldn’t help but want to ask Sophia and Yulia, who were pushing the food cart over, Alchemist who rushed forward had already charged toward a Doppelsoldner mecha!Seeing the doll still bravely rush forward in the face of a mecha, although they didn’t know what that person’s name was, they all thought... her fate in a while wouldn’t be too good.This was the thought of everyone present. Although the military’s tactical dolls could fight against mechas to a certain extent, this was based on the use of tactics and the premise of having sufficient weapons and equipment.But rushing toward the Doppelsoldner mecha, plus a big jump... they couldn’t think of any other possibilities.As for the wrist blades on Alchemist’s hands... it’s not that they were blind, it’s just hard to believe that something that only exists in science fiction could work, yet here it was, right in front of them.Although the existence of dolls is also quite outrageous, after all, dolls have been developed for decades, and they’ve long been accustomed to their existence.But lightsabers... especially this kind of lightsaber that looked very small, was completely inconsistent with their cognition. Sangvis Ferri has also made many achievements in energy weapons, and there are weapons similar to lightsabers, but they are not small in size. At least, they are definitely not the kind that can be used in the hand.Only the elite dolls of Sangvis Ferri can run around holding those large, iron-like weapons.Just when K and the others thought that Alchemist would soon be knocked away by the Doppelsoldner mecha, the wrist blade that looked like a toy unexpectedly tore open the force field shield that was vaguely visible in front of the Doppelsoldner mecha!Then, the pair of wrist blades pierced the armor plate of the Doppelsoldner mecha as Alchemist’s hands danced! They penetrated into the energy core of the Doppelsoldner mech!Hmm? Hmm!?Is that thing real!? Such power! The force field shield that requires heavy firepower to penetrate or offset was torn apart just like that! And those armor plates... looked as fragile as white paper under those wrist blades!The energy core was penetrated, and the Doppelsoldner mech burst into a burst of electric sparks on the spot. The whole mech trembled and fell to the side.Boom!The group of people in the lounge opened their mouths wide, and even Yulia and the others shuttled back and forth in front of them to set up the table."Don’t we need to remind them?" Looking at the group of people standing still, Sophia tilted her head, a little worried that the meal she brought would get cold."No, they are not fools; they will eat when they are hungry." Yulia shrugged and said nonchalantly."Uh, didn’t Miss Helian ask us to be nicer?""Ha, come on, it’s the guest room and the food delivery service. If this attitude is not good... You can’t let me stay here and feed them, right?"The group of people in the lounge all stood there in a daze, so the voices of Yulia and the others were a little louder. K, who came back to his senses first, listened to the conversation between the two.While he was a little speechless, he was also a bit confused. After all, the attitude of dolls toward humans is rarely so bad.He had seen these two dolls before. They were the more expensive butler dolls. They were in short supply at Universal Anything. Griffin’s G36 was also the same model doll.To be honest, as a butler-type doll, in terms of service attitude, there should be absolutely no fault to be found. But the expression on the face of the doll of the same model called Yulia was simply extremely impatient.The other one was okay...Except for these two dolls, the other dolls they met on the ship all seemed to be rude to them. It’s not that their attitudes were bad, but these dolls came and went in a hurry, as if they ignored them.This feeling of being ignored... How to say it, he was a little unhappy for some reason...K shook his head and saw that the people next to him hadn’t come back to their senses yet, so he turned his head and looked at another screen.That lightsaber thing looked a bit outrageous. On the other side, those tactical dolls were wearing power armor after all, so this side seemed to be more acceptable.The four dolls wearing CMC power armor who landed with G11 and others before moved separately from those dolls holding lightsabers and wearing black robes.M870 and Super-Shorty and others also moved in another direction with them.SOP2’s Viking fighter, AR15, and UMP9 also had new mission targets. Without saying much, they immediately dispersed and flew toward their respective mission destinations.K and others were really surprised by the fact that these dolls dispersed as soon as they started to engage in a firefight with Paradeus. They thought that these guys would gather together to deal with the Paradeus.As a result, they immediately split into three teams and started fighting on their own? Is this really possible?There were at least thousands of ordinary shooters on the Paradeus side, and most of them gathered in the direction of G11 and others. Where were the others going if they left in another direction?No one in the lounge could answer their questions. Whether it was Helian or other dolls, they were all on the move now.Of course, the work to be done was not only to repair the quarantine wall and clean up Paradeus.People had to be sent to the purification tower to repair it, as well as to deal with the ELID-infected people and mutants that poured into the city.Compared with these ELID-infected, the combat units of Paradeus could only be regarded as a small task. The number of Paradeus was only about a few thousand, and those ELID-infected were tens of thousands. They were completely dwarfed by the giants.The most important thing is that there are a large number of mutants mixed in among these ELID-infected.The silicon layer on the surface of these creatures is even more difficult to deal with than the force field shields on the Paradeus. Moreover, the ELID mutants, who act purely on instinct, are much harder to deal with than the Paradeus when attacking.These creatures are all unpredictable. Before engaging in combat, there is no way to determine whether the enemy has an extra arm or leg, or whether they’ve evolved some kind of mouthparts or other strange features.This is one of the reasons most cities must set up city defense cannons on the quarantine walls. After all, these creatures are completely unpredictable, so it’s best to eliminate them from a distance if possible. Otherwise, you might find that these creatures are covered in barbs, and ordinary bullets can even bounce off them....Gentiane didn’t sleep for long. Although she was very confident in Renault’s spaceship, she still felt a little worried about her dolls.After a short nap, Gentiane immediately got up."Gentiane, you're awake! Come here, I grabbed this hamburger from SPAS-12! It tastes great! Eat it before it gets cold!"When she got up, Gentiane saw Kalina and several other dolls returning from the restaurant, all bringing some snacks with them.Persica was still sitting on the sofa, looking rather odd, but instead of a coffee cup, she was holding a sandwich."Why did she fight to stay? Does SPAS-12 need to fight? Did Renault not give her food?" Gentiane thought. She knew SPAS-12, of course. She had one under her command, and her hobbies were similar to SPAS-12's at Renault’s place.The difference between SPAS-12 and Renault’s model was that Renault’s was a little more polite.Although Griffin Base and Griffin Command Vehicle were often attacked by SPAS-12's hunger, SPAS-12 would never fight Kalina, the logistics officer, for a hamburger, right?"Ah, it’s the one from Renault’s side. It’s said that she is forbidden from eating any fried food or foods that might fall apart, including hamburgers.""Uh..." Gentiane thought, noticing the hamburger someone was carrying halfway through the journey, and couldn't help but feel curious."How long did I sleep?""Not long, about fifteen minutes. You ust took a quick nap.""What's the situation in the city now?" Hearing this, Gentiane sighed in relief and then asked Kalina."Well, everything’s under control. The dolls on Renault’s side are really good at dealing with the Paradeus and the infected. The dolls responsible for repairing the quarantine walls have already fixed the damage to one of them, and are now working on the next one."The damage to the two quarantine walls isn’t the same, so it’s normal that one is being repaired faster than the other."By the way, why don't I see M4 and RO? And where are M16 and MDR?"Gentiane asked with some concern after carefully counting the dolls in the lounge and noticing that the AR team was missing."They went to the workshop or the repair room. M4 and the others are also there," Kalina answered. "Except for M16 and MDR, who were the most seriously injured, the other T-dolls have some minor injuries like bumps and bruises. Now that there’s a chance to repair, they’re making use of it."Gentiane rubbed her forehead, a little annoyed. She hoped Renault wouldn’t ask her for the repair costs later. It would be great if K could reimburse her."Do you want to go take a look?" Kalina asked, pointing to the door after seeing Gentiane eating her hamburger.Most of Renault’s dolls had gone out to fight, so no one was around to lead the way. Of course, if you didn’t mind the Dinergates, they could show you the way, but you might end up in some odd corners."Alright, let's go check it out. By the way, where are Ms. Ulrich and the agents?""In another cabin, far from the dolls on the ship. After all, they’re just ordinary people. To avoid any secondary damage to the spaceship, that’s what Helian said.""Really?" Gentiane spoke skeptically, munching on her food as she walked out of the cabin.She had just reached the door when—Whoosh!A Prowler towing a cart rushed by, moving as quickly as a Dragoon !Suddenly, Gentiane’s hands tensed, and a small pool of sauce flew from her hamburger, landing on the ground under the gaze of the Dragoon holding a mop beside her.Stare!Several Sangvis Ferri dolls from the cleaning team turned their heads and glared at Gentiane.They had just cleaned this corridor!The group of Griffin T-dolls were walking by in disarray, with mud, circulating fluid, and sand falling off their bodies, almost leaving a trail behind them."Uh..."Faced with the angry glares of the Sangvis Ferri dolls, Gentiane smiled awkwardly. "Sorry, sorry..."Before she could finish, the dragoon who had first targeted her came over with a bucket, mopping the floor several times, and then placed a warning sign at Gentiane's feet after frowning and glaring at her.'Be careful of slippery floors!'After the Sangvis Ferri dolls of the cleaning team left, Gentiane let out a sigh of relief. "Huh, now I get why SPAS-12 is forbidden from bringing in food." She stepped back, returned to the lounge, quickly shoved the rest of the hamburger into her mouth, and walked back out with puffed cheeks."The dolls on Renault’s side… even these ordinary Sangvis Ferri dolls give off a different vibe. I could feel the resentment in their eyes when they stared at me just now!" Kalina said, with her neck shrinking. "It’s much worse than those hardworking dolls from Griffin."Kalina knew the reason behind it—none of the dolls on Renault’s side had the base root protocol. She hadn’t expected that Renault would even delete the underlying protocol of the Sangvis Ferri dolls. He really wasn’t afraid of the Sangvis Ferri’ potential outbursts.Hearing this, Gentiane scratched her head, puffed out her cheeks, and kept quiet, worried she might let something slip again.The rest of the journey was silent. After taking the elevator and feeling the "breeze" outside the spaceship, Gentiane arrived at the door to Renault’s workshop."Don’t play with that in the workshop!"Just as she reached the door, she heard the Scarecrow shouting loudly, slightly annoyed.After the shout, RO635 and MG36 immediately retreated from the workshop, their necks shrinking.Each of them was holding a 'toy' version of a lightsaber."And you! Put down that flask! You're not repaired yet!" Scarecrow No. 2 pointed at M16 and shouted with a headache."Ahem, I just smelled it…""Behave! Or I’ll take out all your cores and put them in the rice cooker!" Scarecrow No. 2 glared at the Griffin Dolls in the workshop and shouted unhappily.Now, Scarecrow No. 1 had been sent to repair the purification tower, and most of the Sangvis Ferri were helping to prepare supplies. She was the only one left in the workshop. There were many injured dolls from Griffin, so it was inevitable that she was a little flustered.---Chapter 1009: Dangerous Elements are Prohibited from Entering!"Hi, Commander, you’re here!"As if to break the almost stagnant atmosphere in the workshop, M16 hid the wine flask in her hand behind her back and raised her hand to greet Gentiane, who was standing at the door."Hmm? Commander Gentiane of Griffin? Long time no see, or rather, it's our first meeting. I am Scarecrow No. 2, and I am currently responsible for the maintenance of these unlucky little guys under your command. If possible, it would be best to help manage these little troublemakers before they blow up the entire workshop out of curiosity."Scarecrow No. 2, holding a welding gun and a screwdriver, nodded at Gentiane. As for Kalina, who was next to her, she simply nodded as well. Although she knew Griffin had a very capable logistics officer, this was the first time she had seen her in person."Uh..." Gentiane was a little confused when she heard Scarecrow No. 2’s message. It was their first meeting after a long time, but she understood later. Gentiane reluctantly turned her gaze to the dolls, their eyes full of curiosity."Don't cause trouble for others. There will be plenty of time for you to exercise your curiosity once the situation is settled." Seeing Gentiane say this with a stern face, even RO635 and MG36, who had just retreated from the door, scratched their heads embarrassingly, and the few dolls waiting for repairs in the workshop nodded honestly.It seemed that Gentiane, as a commander, still held some authority in the hearts of the dolls!Satisfied with their obedience, Gentiane nodded and then turned to look at the repair pod.Inside, MDR and another doll, Ingram, who had lost an arm during the battle, lay. If Papasha hadn't pulled her back at that time, she would have rushed forward and pressed the muzzle of her gun into the enemy's mouth each time. She had to explain it directly."How are MDR and the others?" Among the dolls participating in this operation, the most seriously injured are MDR and Ingram, and of course, M16.However, M16 can still secretly hide the wine flask, which is clearly better than MDR and Ingram, who have entered the repair pod."Fortunately, Ingram is fine. She just lost an arm, and the dormant repair should be faster. MDR's situation is a bit more serious. Her neural core has been forcibly connected, and the surface of the neural core has been slightly ablated, which may impact her combat capability.""Can't it be repaired?" Gentiane asked worriedly upon hearing this."Impossible. Due to the limitations of material properties, it can't be repaired. The only option is to replace the neural core. Otherwise, although she can wake up and retain her memory, it will be difficult to continue to activate the fire control core and other external modules."Scarecrow No. 2 didn’t look up, her welding gun continuing to work. While welding, she used a screwdriver to clean the residues left by the circulating fluid's ablation.Hearing what Scarecrow No. 2 said, Gentiane immediately held her forehead, feeling a headache. "This... I remember that Renault can replace the neural core, right?""Of course. This is not a technology that Commander Renault needs to hide from you, but you know...""It costs more, right? Okay, I understand, I understand..."Gentiane subconsciously covered her wallet when she heard this "but," but quickly realized that she hadn't brought her wallet at all. Even if she had, the money inside would only be enough for a few cups of coffee or a few meals. Griffin hadn’t paid her salary this month!As for Griffin's activity funds...Thinking of this, Gentiane couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Kalina."Uh, Gentiane, after this matter is over, send Griffin’s technology back... No, let Persica try it after we return, right?"That way, there would be no need to pay extra!Although Kalina was also concerned about MDR's condition, since Scarecrow No. 2 had said MDR’s memory would be fine, it should be okay to wait for MDR to wake up and then return to Griffin’s command vehicle to attempt repairs, right?"Hmm? Do you want to replace MDR's body directly? Then I can make a backup of her mind cloud map here, and you can just use the backup to create a new one after you get back."Upon hearing Kalina, Scarecrow No. 2 raised her eyebrows and spoke in a familiar tone, as though she had rehearsed this line, "That’s something Helian prepared for you."At first, Scarecrow No. 2 had been somewhat resistant to this obvious matter of recruiting people for the family. After all, there were already quite a few dolls at home, and with their elite dolls from Sangvis Ferri, their numbers were already close to a hundred.Furthermore, the intelligence of ordinary dolls from Sangvis Ferri was rising, so there was no worry about not being able to find people.Well, that’s what she thought at first, but... now she knew, there really weren't enough people...Most of the T-dolls at home had been sent out to fight, and the remaining Sangis T-dolls were mostly helping in the maintenance depot. Some of the Sangis T-dolls temporarily took over the vacant positions of the T-dolls to keep the supply facilities running on board.After all, she was the only one left working in the workshop... She, Scarecrow No. 1, and ME79 were working here, and Renault didn't count, as he was the boss.Now that Scarecrow No. 1 and ME79 were both out repairing the purification tower, she was the only one left in the workshop.So... now she had changed her mind!Although MDR could be a bit jumpy, she could still be useful, and with more people, work could be shared. The more T-dolls there were, the less work there would be in the workshop.As she thought, Scarecrow No. 2 looked at the figures standing in the workshop.Isn’t it... that you’re poaching people right under my nose? How about showing a little more restraint? This isn’t good.Gentiane was speechless. While Kalina's suggestion was a solution, if Persica used the mind cloud map to recreate an MDR, it would be a little unacceptable to her, given that she had almost understood what "recreation" entailed.Although the MDR recreated according to the mind cloud map would have no changes in personality or memory and would be exactly the same as them, the fact remained that they would have created an extra MDR.The original MDR would still exist, but her neural core would have been disassembled and could no longer be activated.Facing Gentiane’s gaze, Kalina hesitated for a moment. After thinking for a while, she finally sighed, "Okay, can we negotiate the price?""Sorry, we're a small business, so no bargaining."Small business?! Are you kidding me?! Or am I still asleep? You have spaceships and all kinds of heavy weapons, and you say you're a small business in front of us? Does she think we're fools?"Moreover, the mind transfer program will automatically delete all the underlying protocols during operation. If MDR's core is really replaced, she might jump on your head and dance in the middle of the night," Scarecrow No. 2 reminded immediately.Without the mandatory command of the underlying protocol, Gentiane's orders would have no restrictions on the dolls. If Gentiane's authority were strong enough and the dolls were willing to treat her as their commander, there would be no problem at all.However, the issue is that without the underlying protocol's restriction, the dolls may not always follow orders during combat operations. After all, the minds of these dolls are similar to those of young girls, and they have only been "alive" for a few years at most. It could even be a matter of months or weeks, and it’s inevitable that their thoughts might jump out of control.Even among the Sangis dolls, well, the most rigorous Gager among them at present, there are still instances of behaviors that over-pamper Architects.As for herself? She is an exception. After all, she managed the overall logistics of Sangis Ferri Manufacturing for a long time."Ah, this! Can't this be changed?""Sorry, my skills are limited. I can repair the doll body, but for mental issues, Commander Renault will have to handle it himself."The automatic program is set up that way. After all, Renault doesn’t need any underlying protocols to restrict the dolls under his command.Sometimes Scarecrow No. 2 didn’t understand why Renault did this. After all, it was very difficult to command them without mandatory orders. Was it because Renault’s deterrence over the dolls was so great that they obeyed him willingly?Well, there might be other reasons, but as for Scarecrow No. 2 herself, she just felt that working under Renault was definitely more comfortable than working under the  Mastermind, who was almost like a blank sheet of paper.Of course, maybe there was also a bit of fear of Renault’s threat of force?"Let MDR decide on this matter when she wakes up."Just when Gentiane and Kalina were in deep thought, a voice suddenly sounded from behind them.The sudden voice startled the two, and they turned around to find it was Persica."Hiss! How did you come here so quietly? Don’t they make any sound when they walk?""Huh? Isn’t it common sense that cats make no sound when they walk?" Persica responded, spreading her hands while shaking the takeaway coffee cup in her hand."Meow!"As soon as Persica finished speaking, the two tabby cats at her feet cried out in unison, as if in response to her words."Oh my! Two little cuties, do you think so too? You’re so smart!" Persica, who heard the cats, smiled and squatted down to pet them.But before Gentiane could say anything, Scarecrow No. 2, who had been holding a welding gun to repair M16, suddenly threw down her screwdriver and twisted her body!She reached out and slammed the closing button of the hatch next to the workbench!Clang!The hatch brushed past Gentiane’s nose, then slammed shut with a loud bang, sealing tightly without a single gap!"This is a work area! Cats are strictly prohibited from entering! If you two don’t want to be chased by UMP40, you'd better go somewhere else to play!" Scarecrow No. 2 spoke sternly in the direction of the hatch, her voice reaching Persica’s ears outside, and of course, the two tabby cats’."Awoo!""Awoo!"Probably a cry of frustration, the two tabby cats, who had been enjoying Persica’s petting, cried out together once again.Originally, they thought they could sneak into the workshop with Persica, a human who had cat ears, but who would have thought Scarecrow No. 2 wouldn’t give them any face?Seeing there was no hope of getting in, the two cats immediately turned and trotted off, raising their heads proudly.Scarecrow No. 2 let out a sigh of relief after watching them leave from the surveillance camera. Once they were gone, she reopened the workshop door."If you want to come in, come in quickly. But don’t bring those two dangerous elements here again!" Scarecrow No. 2 glared at the surveillance camera, fearing that the two troublemakers might return.Dangerous elements? Two cats?Gentiane and the T-dolls in the room exchanged confused glances when they heard this. They couldn’t understand why the two cats would be considered "dangerous elements" by Scarecrow No. 2.Aren’t cats supposed to be cute? What’s the connection between cute cats and danger?Persica was obviously displeased when she heard this. She walked in with a pout. When she saw Scarecrow No. 2 manually repairing M16, she raised an eyebrow. "I didn’t expect Renault would have to manually repair a doll body?""What else? Ordinary repair pods have no authority to repair special individuals like her. Can any technician from Griffin do maintenance on her?"Of course not. As a special doll from 16lab, all personnel or equipment that repairs dolls like the AR team need to undergo authority authentication. Kalina and Gentiane were naturally aware of this.Persica must have known as well, but she never cared about it. After all, technicians who can do this job also need to sign a confidentiality agreement.Especially M16, a doll who had once worked for Statesec, and thus had many secrets hidden in her.Persica shrugged and began to look at the equipment in the workshop. She had seen most of it, but some of the smaller gadgets were unfamiliar to her."I heard Renault replaced your doll body?" Persica asked, blinking as she looked at Scarecrow No. 2 curiously.Back with Springfield, she had overheard that Renault’s dolls were replacing their bodies in batches, which piqued her curiosity about what new things Renault could come up with.And when they were evacuating, the state of MDR on Renault’s side had also was suspicious. It was unlikely that a doll body of that size would appear in Renault’s hands. Shouldn’t that guy be transforming the doll in a stronger and bigger direction?How could a child-sized one suddenly appear? A reverse upgrade?---Chapter 1010: You Are the Only One Who Is Slacking Off"It can barely be called a 'doll body.' I prefer the word 'body'. If Miss Persicaria is interested, she can ask Helian. If Commander Renault agrees, maybe you can visit the biological laboratory."Scarecrow No. 2 spoke as se put down the welding gun in his hand, picked up the atomizer connected to the detergent can, and began to clean the stains on M16. After cleaning, it could be thrown into the repair chamber for the bionic skin implantation process.However, M16 has to wait until the end, until all other dolls are repaired. Not even Scarecrow can repair it manually.If it weren't for the fact that M16's internal circuit repair required permission, she wouldn't want to do these jobs manually at all. Moreover, the base body parts used by M16 are also military-grade, and the spare parts in the repair chamber are obviously not of the same level as the parts used by M16."Biological laboratory? Hmm, I think... Could it be the biological laboratory that treated Ange? Could Renault have already cultivated those..." Persica heard this and suddenly widened her eyes in shock. He subconsciously moved closer to Scarecrow No. 2 and even tried to smell the scent."Sorry, I don't like this. Miss Persica, you should find someone else! And I don't have any peculiar smell!" Scarecrow No. 2 stretched out her free hand to support Persica's head, regretting what she had just said.Persica's probably not normal in the heas! But the brains of geniuses are probably a little different from those of ordinary people, so is this a normal phenomenon?Although her head was catched, Persica still had both hands. She placed the coffee cup in het hand on the table. This woman's hands directly grabbed Scarecrow No. 2's forearm and rubbed it repeatedly like touching a white radish.Scarecrow No. 2 frowned as Persica's hands rubbed and kneaded her arms, and the veins on her forehead had already popped out.The fingers that were originally just supporting Persica's face began to exert force and actually grabbed Persica's head and lifted it up."Sorry, I have some doubts about your abnormal brain. Can you please leave the workshop first?"Although she still said "please," Scarecrow No. 2 had already stood up and walked directly to the door with Persica.Grinna and Gentiane, next to her, all frowned and shrank their necks. Persica's behavior just now gave them goosebumps."Ah! Ah! It hurts! It's going to break! It's going to break! My neck is going to break!"Amid Persica's screams, Scarecrow No. 2 threw her out of the workshop door mercilessly and closed the hatch of the workshop with his backhand."Don't worry, even if she got broken bones, it's okay. There are professional medical staff on the ship. As long as you’re rescued in time, you will be alive and kicking in no time."What's more, it's not broken at all, just a little painful. By the way, it might be good for Persica's health to stretch her body, which has been lacking exercise for a long time."Sorry, I'm a little irritated." After closing the hatch, Scarecrow No. 2 clapped her hands as if nothing had happened, just like throwing away garbage.Seeing Scarecrow No. 2's behavior towards Persica, Gentiane couldn't help but worry.Although Scarecrow No. 2's means of treating Persica were a bit tough, it was not difficult to see that a doll without the underlying protocol did not treat humans as respectfully as before.Although it may be because Scarecrow No. 2 was originally an Sangvis doll, think about it—without the underlying protocol, P7, who is a troublemaker, might have to put on a painting exhibition on her face every day, and Papasha, like an alcoholic, would stagger around with a bottle of wine in her hand, driving engineering equipment while slamming...There are also M9 and MK23 who are competing for her favor, each pulling one of her hands and trying to tear her in half, and FNC, an ultimate sweets lover, has since unscrupulously swept away all the sweets in the warehouse, leaving the floor full of MRE packaging bags...Hiss——!When they thought of this, the two of them shuddered at the same time, as if they had seen Griffin being completely destroyed by those tactical dolls without the underlying agreement.The abnormal reactions of the two immediately attracted the attention of several dolls standing in the workshop waiting for maintenance, and they couldn't help but come forward and ask Gentiane and the others."Commander? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"Gentiane woke up from her fantasy and saw M9 and MK23 approaching her, looking at her curiously. She subconsciously began to wonder if they were calculating which part of her body was the best so they could take it off and divide it equally..."No! I'm very normal! Very healthy!" Gentiane quickly denied it and even jumped on the spot to show that she was normal."Hey! Open the door! Give me my coffee back!"Gentiane called out, but Persica, who had recovered, was now standing outside the door, knocking and trying to get Scarecrow No. 2 to hand over her cup of special coffee."Ahem, since the repair isn’t a problem, we won’t stay here. Just give this to Persica," Gentiane said hurriedly. She grabbed the coffee cup from the table and ran out, without even thinking to say hello to M4."Ah, thank you. But why did you come out? Didn’t MDR's neural core problem get solved?" Persica asked curiously as she took the coffee cup from Gentiane. Weren’t they just discussing MDR's neural core issue?"Not yet. Let's wait for MDR to wake up and decide for herself ," Gentiane replied, shaking her head. If her boss were here, she would probably ask for a direct backup of the mind cloud map without hesitation. After all, the technology behind the mind cloud map was developed for this purpose.But Gentiane didn’t think that way. If possible, she still hoped that the MDR she saw was indeed the MDR who had been with her and the others for a long time.And IOP was still providing Griffin with new tactical dolls. The technology and body materials used on them were getting better, and the combat effectiveness of some dolls had even begun to approach that of military dolls.In this case, she didn’t need to hold on to MDR and make things difficult for herself just to maintain Griffin's combat effectiveness."Well, I’ll go to the biological laboratory that the Scarecrow mentioned. Do you want to come with me?" Persica asked, rubbing her head. Could it be that her head was deformed by that doll?"We can’t go there without Renault's permission, right?" Gentiane asked."Hey, don’t be so rigid. Anyway, Renault didn’t tell me about it in person. I just want to go over and take a look quietly. Ahem, there shouldn’t be any problem." Persica raised her eyebrows, clearly not concerned whether Renault would pursue it later.Besides, when they got on the ship, neither Helian nor Renault told them that there was any place they couldn’t go. Now, they were casually walking around the ship, and no one had stopped them.Persica also roughly guessed Renault's attitude. He probably didn’t care about it. After all, the spaceship had been displayed. What harm could a few people taking a look do? Can all the technologies of this ship be fully reproduced just by taking a few glances?It was impossible, and it wasn’t realistic at all."Okay, be careful. I have to go to the restaurant. I don’t think I’m full yet," Gentiane replied. She planned to eat more, as it would help calm her mind and get rid of any worries.Well, if she ate more sweets, maybe her bad mood would completely disappear.Grena would certainly not refuse. After all, she had already concluded that Renault would ask her for a series of messy expenses, like repair fees and transportation costs. Instead of feeling bad when she had to pay later, it was better to eat more now.Although it might not be possible to eat back the costs, at least she’d be full...... "Ange, I guess Renault must have emptied your body and stuffed a rice bucket in it," AK12 joked, smiling at Angelia who was rummaging through food in an empty convenience store."Tsk! Can you say fewer sarcastic things? I don’t want to either! But I’m just hungry!" Angelia replied. Although she was very satisfied with her current body after Renault completed her transformation, over time, she began to notice some downsides.It was true that her strength, stamina, reaction speed, etc., had all greatly improved, but the price was the massive increase in the amount of food she needed to consume.Although she didn’t know if this was temporary or permanent, for now, Angelia felt that her appetite hadn’t decreased at all, especially after running around with the rebellious team lately."Why don’t you ask Boss Renault to install another energy core for you next time? Then you wouldn’t need to eat every day.""Okay, that’s irrelevant. What’s the situation with AN94 and AK15?""Ange, those Paradeus have stopped, and two of them have entered the museum.""Museum? Where?" Angelia muttered suspiciously, grabbing a piece of smoked ham and biting into it without hesitation."Puff!" Seeing Angelia eat like this, AK12 couldn’t help but laugh. It was the first time she had seen someone eat a whole smoked ham.And she had no doubt that Angelia could eat the entire ham. After all, Angelia now consumed at least the amount of food for five normal people in one meal."Ange, the previously silent Sangvis Ferri have also started moving towards the museum," AK15, who was responsible for monitoring the Sangvis Ferri dolls, spoke up in the communication channel to alert them.Hearing this, Angelia quickened her movements and turned to look at RPK16. "Where are the rebels? Have their movements changed?""No, they’re still entangled with the Paradeus, but they’re probably about to escape. They’re about to collide with Renault's dolls," RPK16 replied, shrugging somewhat disappointedly.She could only see some signals here and couldn’t view the actual situation on-site. If she thought about it, the military rebels had been completely crushed by Renault’s dolls. This scene was worth watching, didn’t it?"Then forget about the rebels. It seems their goal is different from that of Paradeus and Sangvis Ferri. Let’s go!""Where to go?""Of course, the museum! Hurry up!" Angelia spoke, waving the ham in her hand angrily."Puff!"AK12 and RPK16 laughed out loud. Angelia could do nothing but roll her eyes. She didn’t want to throw away the ham in her hand. The caloric value of other foods was too low. Chocolate was fine, but it came in small retail packages, which weren’t enough for her....Gager squinted her eyes, and the double-headed lightsaber in her hand flew up and down deftly. The Paradeus Strelet and Rodelero on the way couldn’t stop the power of the lightsaber with their force shields.No matter what part or posture, the fate of being hit by the lightsaber was to be cut in half like a hot knife cutting butter!Gager also found the feel of using the particle weapon from Sangvis at this time. She didn’t need to change the weapon’s posture frequently. She just needed to sprint back and forth with the lightsaber.Anyway, there was nothing on the road that could resist her!Alchemist, not far away, acted like an assassin, specifically targeting larger Paradeus units.It could be said that almost half of the Paradeus mechas in this direction fell under Alchemist’s wrist blades.The combat styles of the remaining three people—G11, 56-1, and UMP40—weren’t much different, but there were some small differences in personal habits.UMP40 and G11 both jumped up and down, while 56-1 was a bit violent. She cut whatever she encountered, like chopping ingredients on a cutting board.Except for G11, who used lightsabers to chop Paradeus into pieces, UMP45 was standing with Architect at this time.Well, she was slacking off.After all, most of the enemies had been dealt with by G11 and others, and the gun in Architect's hand had no room to play."Ahem, um, UMP45, isn’t it a bit bad for us to slack off like this?"Even someone as thick-skinned as Architect couldn’t help but feel that slacking off was a bit inappropriate."Slacking off? Uh-huh? Sorry, what are you talking about? You’re the only one slacking off. I’ve been providing battlefield information to them this whole time, and I haven’t slacked off," UMP45 said, spreading her hands, a fact that made Architect feel extremely stiff."Huh? Ah! No! I thought you were also... Hey! What should I do!?"There must be a combat effectiveness evaluation afterward! If she had no effort, she will have no pocket money!
