049 Confusion

Arc is already standing because of the tension he felt, he looks at the Ex series combat droid and thought they look like a small heavy armored mech, and no matter how strong a 1-star rank human they can't compete with a mech using only their flesh. He regretted not giving more powerful weapons to the Shadow Unit. Especially to Ruby and Jem, and although the rank 5 suits can save them from most fatal damages it also has limits especially since the Ex series droid was equipped with many heavy weapons that were designed to deal with heavy equipment like tanks or even Mech, how can a mere human compete with that?, he was about to order a retreat when Tiffa stop him.

"Boss believe in them, they can do it," said Tiffa resolutely to Arc.

Arc looks at Tiffa for a few seconds and saw how serious she was. He sighs. And sit back down

"Fine but if I think that there would be any meaningless casualties I'll pull the plug I don't care if we have to wait for a few more months if I can prevent meaningless death I'll do it," said Arc calming down a little.

"You don't have to worry too much Boss though those droids look strong Ruby and Jem are more than a match for it look they are even smiling," said Tiffa as she points at the projection

And indeed without realizing it Ruby and Jem are caught up in the moment of their fight, and began to enjoy it of course, not to the point that they will play with it, in fact, they were very serious but that seriousness is what leads to them enjoying it.

Maybe because they haven't been able to utilize all their ability since they arrived in this world so without them realizing it they already enter combat mode, maybe it was programmed in their genes when they were created. This type of battle truly suits them the most.

Arc also notice it he just gave a wry smile because he understood it he himself encounter this kind of feelings many times when he was training in the virtual world. He knows he can't stop it anymore, he can see the look on the face of Ruby and Jem, he recognizes it, in fact, he knows it too well for he was an adrenaline junky himself he discovered it the very first time he tried the training machine.

At the same time, the Shadow Units blow another wall on the opposite side, where Ruby and Jem are fighting. The people inside the Spider HQ also heard the explosions but unfortunately for them, they couldn't confirm anything as Eve immediately intercepts all their communications, and she also gives a lot of false information to confuse the enemies, but that was only effective for those who didn't know the existence of Ex series droid as the ones that do were immediately informed the moment the droid encountered the enemy.

Mikasa and Mikhail are brothers and sisters born into The Spider organizations they have a prominent reputation but unlike the rest, they didn't have any title like Elder or leader, not even an officer but their existence is special because no one in The Spider organization will offend them not even an elder have the guts to do it. The reason is that although those two don't have any specific title they do have a very specific job, to protect the Head of the Spider and only the Head of the Spider, they didn't care about anything else.

The moment the Ex series Droid encountered the enemy Mikasa, Mikhail, and the Head of Spider were informed immediately according to plan they would immediately take the Head to a Specially designed bunker, or take him to the hidden tunnel to escape.

But when they tried to ask Beru about the situation Beru reassured them everything is fine and under control, of course, that was not really Beru but Eve pretending as Beru, this delayed Mikasa, and Mikhail from making sudden moves and even if the Head was worried the Head decided to continue the meeting but ask Mikhail to investigate the action of the Ex series droid.

Normally their first action is to take the Head to safety but because Beru said everything is under control they believe that the Ex series droid has already taken care of the problems and so the Head sends Mikhail to check and at the same time try to minimize the exposure of the Ex series droids, but halfway to the power and safety control terminal another explosion was heard but to everyone surprised and confusions, there was no alarm given they even receive a transmission that everything is under control from the head of security so believing in the transmission many personnel continued with their works, but Mikhail is different he knew something was wrong. He check his mini terminal and sure enough, the droid is still active, unfortunately, it didn't tell any more than that.

He needs to go to the main control terminal of the droids to completely check everything, but the main control terminal of the droid is in the hidden chamber next to the sleeping chamber of the Head.

So he contemplates if he should go to the droids, and risk being in danger or head back to the control terminal of the droid, as a protector he cannot receive an injury or place himself in any form of danger unrelated to the protection of the Head. They can only get injured while protecting the head any other way, and they will be considered a failure, in the end, he chose to head back he also informed Mikasa and The Head of the circumstances. The Head checks the message he got from Mikhail and frowned according to Mikhail the HQ system is compromised and even Beru most likely is compromised as well.

The Head is using a secured communication device separated from any network, this communication is a three-way personal communication exclusive for him and his two personal guards, so it's impossible to hack since it's not connected to any other network.

He used his other communication device, and call to check on Beru to ask about the situation. But Beru confirmed it was under control but The Head notice something, he knew Beru for a very long time it can even be said that they were quite close, so he knew Beru's mannerisms but the Beru he was talking to is different from the Beru he knew...

No matter how good Eve is she can't completely copy another person she can pretend, and most people can't tell the difference, especially those that don't know the person personally and even those who do can still be fooled as well, but it's different from those who really knew the person they will be able to tell the difference, of course, they won't be able to tell they are talking to a different person, but they will suspect that the said person is being controlled or compromised.

The Head couldn't tell if Beru is being controlled or if Beru betrayed him and although the chance of Beru betraying him is very small it's not impossible since it happens in the past, even now those that betrayed him are now suffering in Hell.

As the head is contemplating

Bang!

The Web doors were forcefully opened, and when the head saw who it was, his eyes went wide...
