Cyberpunk: Spartan Walker

Chapter 79 The Battle of Zhonghaina Blue Star (6)

Hangar No. 漼杌.

The Banshee fighter group and the Wasp group were entangled in the sky, plasma beams and tracer bombs intertwined into a dazzling net. The Scorpion tanks on the deck kept roaring, blowing away the Covenant infantry pouring out of the airlock doors; from time to time, Wasp and Banshee fighter jets emitting black smoke and flames fell from the sky, green fuel shells Hitting the Scorpion tank caused bursts of explosions.

The stench of the Covenant corpses and the high temperature caused by the plasma beam made Rebecca feel nauseous. The M41 machine gun in her hand kept roaring, the red barrel emitting white smoke, and the shock caused by the recoil made her feel like she was His teeth were almost falling out.

We're running out of ammunition, get another box! Rebecca shouted to the Marine responsible for transporting ammunition, and the attack of the machine gun in her hand did not slow down at all.

She turned her gun and pointed it at the Banshee fighter jet rushing toward her in the air. The armor-piercing bullet killed the elite pilot inside before it fired its plasma beam.

Rebecca turned the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at another wave of infantry on the ground. The trembling feeling in her hand suddenly disappeared, and the barrel of the gun was spinning empty without a bullet being fired.

Where's the ammunition?! She turned her head and looked at the Marine, only to see him lying on the ground, half of his body shattered and scorched by the plasma beam.

Sir, we should retreat! Corporal Aurora, who disappeared a few minutes ago, reappeared.

Huh? Rebecca retracted the bunker and rubbed her numb hands, What about those people who are still in the planes and tanks?

They will buy us time to retreat. Corporal Aurora took out the shiny black crystal. As planned, we are going to take this thing with us and retreat to the officers' club.

Rebecca wanted to say something else, but the sound of the engines of the Covenant landing ship interrupted her.

Under the cover of the Banshee fighter jets, five U-shaped landing spaceships quickly entered the hangar. The plasma cannon suppressed the Scorpion tanks. The Revenant self-propelled mortars they carried fell with a bang and then dragged the blue streamer. Plasma projectiles were fired high into the air.

Go, go! Rebecca and Corporal Aurora rushed towards the retreating airlock door. Plasma shells roared down and the machine gun position they had just been in was immediately destroyed.

The airlock door slammed shut, and Rebecca leaned against the door, panting. It was a close call, just a little bit close.

——

Ellie paid close attention to the situation in the hangar. Rebecca and Corporal Aurora were the last to evacuate, so she locked the airlock door as soon as it closed.

The drivers of the Wasp and Scorpion tanks who stayed in the hangar knew that they had no chance to escape. After running out of ammunition, they drove their vehicles into the Covenant. They realized the value of their lives in the heroic explosion.

Even so, all this was a drop in the bucket, and more and more Covenant people gathered in the hangar. They regrouped and prepared to concentrate their efforts on blowing open the airlock door.

Ellie, who has been prepared for a long time, will not let them succeed. She called up the air preconditioning program, connected the hangar vents to the main air circulation system, and then commanded the air pump to run the program to extract air from the rest of the ship.

She scanned the cameras mounted on the upper deck of the hangar and saw the Grunts screaming in agony and falling to the ground, their respirators leaking methane as the external air pressure dropped. The elite warriors stopped and knelt on the ground, grabbing their own throats with their hands and opening their jaws to try to bite the air that had been sucked out. Soon they fell to the ground and suffocated to death. The jackal waved the energy shield and rolled around on the ground in pain. His eyes bulged and exploded as the air pressure decreased, and finally he died of bleeding all over his body.

At this moment, a pulse came from her moral subroutine, issuing an interrupt command, intended to make her stop and reconsider her decision.

Are all the people in the Military Intelligence Agency mentally retarded? They actually set up such a program. Ellie issued the instruction and closed the program. After thinking about it, she felt it was inappropriate, so she added in a low voice, Except him.

——

Rebecca and Corporal Avora fought and retreated during the transfer process, passing through one fire node after another, and successfully merged with the Tibetan Fox team at a certain node. At this time, they gave up the last fire node and were moving very quickly. to the officers' club.

Be careful of the pressure door on the left! Ellie's voice came from the speaker in the corridor.

Sergeant Kelvin took out a grenade, turned on the safety, and threw it towards the opening pressure door. The grenade flew towards a group of Covenant men. After a boom explosion, the danger was relieved.

Go through that door and turn another corner and you'll be there. Ellie directed, a blue navigation point popping up on the heads-up display of their helmets.

The group of them followed the instructions and soon entered the officers' club. Normally, that's a restricted area for soldiers.

There was a huge mahogany table in the officers' club of the Yongqi, and rows of weapons and ammunition were piled on it for people to choose from. There are many desserts on a counter in the corner, and the desserts are all kinds of cakes.

The walls inlaid with walnut panels in the room have been polished and polished, and gold-rimmed red flags are hung along the walls. In addition, the Silver Cluster Medal and the Purple Heart Medal to commend bravery and prowess in combat are also hung; photos of senior officers and successive captains of the Yinchu are also hung. Hang in there.

What Rebecca finds most special is a commemorative picture, which shows a monument similar to a straight square prism, with a line of Chinese characters engraved below - The people's heroes will live forever.

Most of the Marines were gathered here. Two M41 machine guns were placed on both sides of the room, with the muzzles pointed at the door. The place was as quiet as death.

Rebecca hid behind a bunker made of iron cabinets, with the safety on the MA5B rifle in her hand ready to go.

Sir, are you going to give the order to fire later? Corporal Aurora next to her gently touched her and asked.

Uh- Rebecca regretted telling her about her military rank, Lieutenant Anthony's command is quite good, so I won't steal his limelight.

Wow, sir, you are so humble. Corporal Aurora expressed his admiration for Rebecca. It seems that I still have a lot to learn from you.

Ahaha, yes. Rebecca touched the helmet and confirmed that the reflector was turned on.

The high-pitched voices of the Covenant people were getting closer and closer to the club door. Lieutenant Anthony gave an order. The Hell Paratrooper Golden Monkey Team opened the pressure door and shot out the rocket launcher they were carrying. Ten missiles flew out dragging fireworks and exploded. Get up a bunch of Grunts.

The machine guns also opened fire, and the frustrated Covenant men immediately hid, took out their fuel cannons and fought back and forth with the Marines.

A plasma grenade flew in and stuck to a Marine in the distance. He immediately realized that he was going to die, his eyes widened with anger, and he rushed towards the Covenant with a roar. Several plasma beams in his body were still unabated, and he hugged an elite warrior tightly, and then in the brilliant blue fire Turn into ashes.

Rebecca couldn't understand it, but she was shocked. I have never seen such a will to accept death in Night City. The average mercenary team will often collapse if there are too many casualties, not to mention the ubiquitous betrayal.

Corporal Aurora, why are we working so hard? Rebecca asked her while changing the magazine.

To save mankind. The corporal replied without hesitation. She pulled the trigger, and the BR55 rifle in her hand fired several precise three-round bursts. The jackal that the gun was pointed at was hit in the palm, and its door opened wide, and then subsequent bullets penetrated it.

Rebecca didn't understand why she wanted to save humanity. Among the people she had come into contact with, except for her former teammates in the same team, there were few good ones. What could such people be worth saving? It's not worth losing your life for them.

Corporal Aurora, what's your name? Rebecca changed the magazine and fired at the Covenant who rushed in from the door.

Talia Ivanovich Avora. Thalia threw an M9 grenade and glanced at Rebecca suspiciously, What's the problem, sir?

It's nothing, I just don't like calling others by their military rank.

The fierce fighting continued for several more minutes, with both sides arguing in the officers' club.

Rebecca couldn't remember how many times she got into the bunker to change the magazine. The MA5B rifle in her hand was too hot to touch.

Suddenly, her private communication channel was opened with a pop, and Ellie's panicked voice came: Rebecca, hurry to the reactor, Tommy is in danger, I opened a side door for you, other locations Marines are on the way.

Huh? Rebecca's heart suddenly tightened. The two of them didn't usually communicate much, but this was the first time she heard such an anxious voice from this artificial intelligence.

Please, hurry up and make sure you catch up.

Thalia, stay here. Rebekah ordered, crawling on the ground and heading towards the opened side door.

Sir, where are you going?

I want--

The wall of the officers' club was blown open with a bang, and the three members of the Hidden Fox team who were guarding the crystal were thrown to the ground, temporarily losing their ability to fight.

An elite warrior wearing white armor rushed out of the still burning plasma sparks, picked up the two crystals that fell on the ground and ran back. A storm of barrages hit it, but it was blocked by an energy shield that was several times stronger than an ordinary elite.

Stop it, stop that beast!! Lieutenant Anthony roared in the team's communication channel.

A loud roar rang out in the ears of the elite warrior. It turned around and saw Tibetan Fox No. 3 with a strong physique rushing towards it. The distance between the two was instantly shortened.

The elite warrior opened his mouth disdainfully, activated the energy sword with a flick of his hand, and thrust the sword into his chest with extremely swift movements. The trembling sword tip emerged from Corporal Alexander's back.

No. 3! Sergeant Kelvin shouted in pain as he fell to the ground.

I'm ready! Corporal Alexander reached out and opened the safety of the plasma grenade on the elite soldier's waist, and then pressed the orange button on it. Blue fire suddenly spurted out from the grenade, What about you?!

The white-armored elite soldier screamed in horror, pulled out his plasma rifle and fired at his body. Corporal Alexander's torso soon became mangled.

Hidden Fox No. 3 laughed and hugged it with all its last strength. A dazzling blue light flashed, and the scorching heat wave pushed away the two crystals, and they fell to the ground with a snap.

Fucking Covenant bastard!! Corporal Cecilia, who had witnessed everything, roared and tried to get up, but severe pain shot through his body, and he could only twist on the ground unwillingly.

In the dust caused by the explosion, a Grunt emerged, dropped the blue crystal in the distance, picked up the black crystal that fell at his feet, ran back, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Private! Go after that little beast! Lieutenant Anthony's shout on the communication channel pulled back Rebecca, who was dazed by the explosion.

She saw the escaping Grunt, but the side door leading to the way to rescue Tommy was behind her, and the big hole was in front of her. What would Tommy do if she chased the Grunt?

After only a moment of hesitation, Rebecca decisively turned back and rushed towards the side door, not listening to Lieutenant Anthony's roar in the communication channel, and disconnected the communication channel with a thought.
