Franka blinked: "Since you have admitted that you like me, can you give me your salary card?"
"no!"
Razer refused very decisively and said solemnly: "Like is like, salary is salary, they cannot be confused."
Franka: "..."
Deep down in her heart, she began to wonder if Vaifan's women were just a piece of wood.
Withdrawing her hand calmly, Franka walked out with her hands behind her back. Halfway there, she suddenly asked: "Razer, have you seen our junior during this time?"
Razer didn't understand why: "Vanilla? She has already set off with the combat team."
"You're so stupid. I'm talking about Jessica. She has disappeared since she went to the Integration Movement to perform a redemption mission. The doctor said there was a special mission, but what special mission needs to be kept secret even by seniors like us? "
"That seems to be the case, but last time Jessica sent a message saying that she is safe now and asked us not to worry."
Franka said earnestly: "That child Jessica has always been timid. Now she is on a mission alone. Can't you see that she is being tough?"
"We're leaving soon, what should we do?"
The corners of Franka's mouth turned up slightly: "Don't worry, I'm ready."
As she spoke, she magically pulled out a plate of dessert from behind. The fresh and tender fruits were dotted with pure white cream, making people's appetites increase as soon as they opened it.
"Wow!"
Razer's eyes lit up, but Franka stretched out her hand to stop her: "It's not easy for me to get these things, especially Mr. Undertaker, and it's even more difficult to get him to cook. This is bait, not for use. Come to trap Vaifan.”
"Then what do you want me to do?"
"It's very simple..."
Five minutes later, Franka and Razer walked out of the rest room and placed the plate with desserts at the door. The former sighed helplessly:
“The ones eaten by the Laterans were too bland and not sweet enough for us Colombians, so we had to throw them away.”
A plate with a faint aroma was placed on the front steps. Two members of Black Steel squatted behind a bunker not far away, observing patiently. As time passed by, Razer stared with wide eyes. With the dessert on the plate, she suddenly noticed that the fruit on top of the pure white cream was floating strangely. She immediately pulled out the short gun in the holster on her waist, rushed out of the bunker, pointed the muzzle into the sky, and shouted: "Come out, I saw is you!"
There is no doubt that this is a trap, used to ensnare some master of hiding who is good at optical stealth.
"Ms. Razer, that wasn't a very good joke."
Ethan, who was holding the plate, gradually came out of his invisibility state, looking helplessly at Razer and Franka who were already prepared.
Franka stepped over Razer and asked with a smile: "Since you know this is a trap, why did you step in?"
Ethan raised his plate: "It's shameful to waste food, and it's such exquisite food. Do you know that in many places in Colombia, people are still hungry?"
"Okay, you have a point. I apologize for wasting food."
It's just that Franka doesn't care about this issue at all. Her purpose of getting these desserts is to lure Ethan to show up.
"Mr. Ethan, my companion and I encountered a difficulty and need your help..."
Ethan held the fork without raising his head: "If you want me to steal something, forget it. I won't help you do anything that violates the precautions for Rhode Island operators."
"No, we have a companion who is staying in the Yeti team of the Integration Movement. We would like to ask your help to see if she is really safe."
Ethan frowned and said, "Is it that simple?"
"It's that simple."
"Okay, I can take a look at it for you."
Ethan put down the plate, and during the conversation, he had completed the disc operation and quickly disappeared in front of the two of them.
Razer, who had been silent, stared at the smooth plate and exclaimed: "How did he do it?"
Franka shook her head slightly: "Most of the infected people in the Integration Movement were forced to have no way out before they responded to Tallulah's call. If you follow the Dragon Girl, you can have a full stomach, so why not?"
"You haven't told me why you used the gun, wouldn't Ethan just run away?"
"Normally, Ethan will definitely run away, but it's different when you hold a gun. When he was in Saint-Aral City, Ethan visited the temporary residence of Rhode Island at night and was almost shot to death by the doctor. He had Psychological shadow.”
Razer touched the handle of the gun uneasily: "I always feel that this is too bad."
"I can't help it. The trajectory of Ethan's movements is hard to figure out. It's hard for anyone to find him. I can only do this. In the worst case, if I treat him to dinner in the future, I'll treat him as an apology."
"It's better to just ask the doctor."
"That's not okay. The doctor used to like to treat others as pawns, but you saw what happened last time. Now he uses himself as a pawn. If he asks directly, he will definitely not say anything. Let's go, it's time to gather. "
…
…
"Ah sneeze!"
The Kingslayer rubbed his nose, tightened his tight clothes, and sat in the open space in front of the abandoned factory, thinking about why he was defeated again and again by Rhode Island operators, as if his record was always negative. , obviously we could maintain a tie before...
"It's so annoying. They don't have those chains and water pumps. How can I still lose?"
The kingslayer who couldn't understand lay down on her back and looked at the dark sky. There were no stars or moon. The wind was very cold, and her heart felt even colder.
well.
Faust's work was not finished yet, and she didn't know how long she would stay here. The Regicide felt a little tired, and she wanted to get up and go back to the factory to take a nap.
But just as she was about to stand up, the leader of the integration movement quietly appeared nearby and walked towards her.
"Good evening, Lyudmila."
"leader."
The Kingslayer noticed that the leader was carrying a silver-white metal box in his hand.
Tallulah reached out and pulled her up, patting the dust on her coat: "I heard that you were bullied by people from Rhode Island again?"
The regicide opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Is this what people in the Yan Kingdom say: good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles?
"It doesn't matter. It's okay to lose once or twice. Let me ask you, do you want to beat them once?"
Think about it, even dream about it!
The regicide temporarily forgot about the unpleasantness he had just experienced, nodded solemnly, and waited for the leader's next words.
"I have brought you and Faust two pieces of equipment that are still in the trial stage. They can help you deal with some extremely troublesome situations. I hope you like them."
The regicide felt a little embarrassed to say it, but he still said:
"Leader, there is no free lunch in the world, and the equipment of Rhine Life comes at a high price..."
"I understand your concerns, but after the last incident with the Agni Device, they have improved the energy consumption of the equipment. The power will be reduced and it will no longer threaten the life of the user. You and Faust are both integrated movements. Cadres, my good partners, there is no need for me to risk your lives."
If this is the case, it is not unacceptable.
The regicide feels a little more at peace in her heart. She is not afraid of death, but of not being able to take revenge when she dies.
"Okay, let's take a look at the new equipment. There will be surprises."
…
…
"This is really a surprise, Xiu San, you have brought me too many surprises."
Zhou Jinru was full of praise for the equipment department staff on the other end of the video.
Just now, Rhode Island's own ship delivered a batch of support supplies to the camp, including two boxes of Originium grenades.
"Doctor, I think the focus of the support supplies is not those Originium grenades. The incident on Saint Martin gave us a lot of inspiration. During this period of time, we finally developed the first set of Rhode Island's own intelligent AI subsystem. And it can connect fourteen people at the same time within the communication range. Even if there is no commander, it can still intervene through intelligent AI..."
Zhou Jinru: "I think you want to fire me."
"of course not!"
Xiu San was startled and quickly explained: "The ability of intelligent AI is limited. It can only analyze previously archived battles. It lacks the ability to adapt to changes. The actual results are quite average. This may have a lot to do with the fact that our technology is not up to par." relation."
Zhou Jinru laughed from deep in his heart: "I'm just kidding, don't take it seriously. In other words, I can command thirteen operators wearing this set of equipment in one battle?"
"To be precise, it should be ten. Due to the bandwidth problem, it can only support ten operators. The other two operators are reserve personnel, and the signal received by the thirteenth operator will be much worse, so We need a senior operator with enough imagination.”
Xiu San's words were very tactful, but Zhou Jinru heard something else. Aren't these the twelve regular team members in the game?
In regular combat, a full team can only have ten operators. Operators borrowed from friends are usually five-star or higher. Where can he borrow operators from his friends now? Therefore, it automatically becomes the cause of poor communication.
"Okay, these things you mentioned should come in handy, I'll pay attention."
"By the way, doctor, there's one more thing..."
"Do you want to increase your salary? I have to go back and talk about that. I..."
"No!"
Xiu Sanshen said mysteriously: "Doctor, has Miss Mel returned?"
The news is quite good. Mel will come back tonight and you got the news so quickly.
Zhou Jinru nodded and waited for Xiu San's next words.
"I heard that Miss Mel is very good at tactical support, so," Xiu San rubbed his hands, "she should be able to give us a lot of help, especially with her rich experience in drones."
"Okay, there will be plenty of time for you to communicate in the future."
Zhou Jinru turned off the communication video, turned around and shouted: "Come two people, distribute these two boxes of Originium grenades, handle them with care, and pay attention to safety!"
He opened another box and found a row of brand new headsets, as well as several drones, including a projector.
This should be the subsystem of Xiu Sanshuo.
"Hey, doctor, you're still here."
Matomaru's voice came from behind. Zhou Jinru reached out and grabbed an earphone and handed it to Matomaru: "Put it on first and try it."
"Oh, is this some new equipment?"
Zhou Jinru put on the headphones labeled Commander. After the drone took off, he turned on the projector. The real-time footage captured by the drone was projected into the goggles. The delay was very short and basically acceptable.
"Matomaru, swing your weapon forward in the air."
Matomaru didn't understand what Zhou Jinru wanted to do, but she obediently raised her naginata and slashed vertically into the open space in front of her.
In Zhou Jinru's eyes, there was a picture of Matomaru starting to attack. The drone covered a range of about one hundred meters, and the picture became blurry any further away.
Taking off his goggles, he patted Matomaru on the shoulder: "Wear it, you will join my team now."
Matomaru nodded happily: "Okay."
He needed eleven more.
"Amiya, can you allocate some combat operators to me?"
Amiya immediately warned: "Doctor, you promised me you wouldn't run around again!"
"Of course not. The equipment department just sent something. I found it very interesting. As a commander, there is no reason to sit back and wait for victory? Don't worry, I will act with the operators of a combat team."
"I don't have any more operators here, except for those who are resting in the dormitory area. It's too difficult to ask them to fight now."
"Okay, I'll take a look and confirm the number of people. If I need to go to the battlefield, I will apply to you."
The resting operators were all evacuated from the city. Zhou Jinru was familiar with them all. Except for Hemo and Jian Lei, who had temporarily lost their combat ability, the people who could be included in the team were Serea, Angelina, Yi. With Fleet, Shadow, Shihuaiya, Breeze, Rubble, Yaye, Undertaker, Hongyun and Yanke, plus Matomaru beside him, it would not be a problem to form a team.
As for the cost issue...
Are there deployment fees in this world?
So there are no card fees or anything like that.
The role of the vanguard operator is the same as that of the airborne troops. After breaking into the battlefield, they buy time and space for the companions behind them, but now Saint Yalal no longer needs to fight for combat space.
…
…
"It's already too much for me to borrow Ceria and Ifrit. Owl is left to take care of Hermer. That's what I really think."
Zhou Jinru explained to Mel that he rejected Mel's proposal to go to the battlefield.
"You only have 01 Mibo around you. Isn't it appropriate? It's your baby. What if it gets damaged?"
"But……"
"There are no buts. Be obedient. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. I guarantee that all operators will have the opportunity and space to display their strengths. I guarantee that."
So Mel stayed. Although she felt a lot of unwillingness in her heart, she had to admit that the doctor was right. Without Mibo, she had almost no fighting ability.
ten minutes later.
This temporarily formed team was having a pre-war meeting, and Ceria expressed her opinion: "Has the doctor prepared for the worst?"
"So far it looks like this, but the worst is yet to come."
Zhou Jinru pointed to the map behind him. It was a city plan of Saint-Aral. Half of the city was covered in shadows, and only a small half could still see the outline clearly. The word Victoria was written in the margin at the corner.
"This land city has lost half of its urban area, and the remaining half is still running for its life. The situation will continue to worsen."
