Chapter 354: Take It One Step at a Time

"It seems like they've all gone into hiding, Commander. What should we do? Land directly? Or wait a bit longer?"

Controlling the aircraft as it circled the factory area, Simonov didn't spot a single human PMC revealing themselves.

These guys are they worthy of having been on the battlefield before. They know perfectly well how to conceal themselves.

Simonov, MG3, and the others couldn't see a single living person.

As for whether they were all blown to bits by the explosion just now? It's unlikely.

Simonov saw it with her own eyes. There were only two people on the roof, one of whom was blown to pieces on the spot, and the other was thrown directly into the air, flying about seven or eight meters from the twenty-meter-high roof of the factory before crashing down.

That guy was now lying motionless on the ground next to the factory, obviously dead.

Hearing Simonov's words, Renault raised an eyebrow.

This was somewhat unexpected for him because in his perception, there were at least thirty people in the factory area below, including two large-sized mechs and four things that looked like enlarged patrol robots.

These people used the objects in these factories and concealed themselves quite well. It was impossible to see their exact positions visually, unless Simonov's eyes could see through.

"You wait up there. MP5 and MG3, come down with me. C96 and MDR, keep an eye on the ground. If there's any movement, fire immediately, and remember to switch to armor-piercing rounds. There are some big guys in the factory below."

With that, Renault took the opportunity of Simonov lowering the altitude and jumped down first, followed closely by MP5 and MG3.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After three consecutive landing sounds, Reno led MP5 and MG3 straight towards the factory building that had just been blown up.

There were still a few people hiding inside, and they were the closest ones. When doing things, it's important to take it one step at a time and deal with them one by one.

...

"It's another Sangvis Doll we haven't seen before... But what exactly is this doll here for? She just asked about M4A1 and then left. Since when did Sangvis Dolls become so easy to talk to?"

Watching the Sangvis elite Doll disappear from their sight, MG3 under Gentiane couldn't help but wonder.

When they surrounded the scarecrow before, that guy didn't hesitate to attack directly. Who knew that this time this Sangvis Doll, who looked fierce, would just say a few words and leave.

"This... Could it be that the Commander previously ordered to search for that M4A1 nearby? If this Sangvis Doll came looking, maybe they really did pick up some traces of M4A1."

MP5 didn't forget that before the Scarecrow was taken away by Renault, that girl had already sent the analyzed intelligence to her comrades.

Perhaps, the girl they just saw was also involved.

"Should we search this area again? The Commander didn't let us get close to this area earlier to avoid those human PMC. But... this place does look like it could hide a lot of things... But, Commander Renault and the others will definitely engage those human PMC over there, right?"

Thinking about how Renault and the others' aircraft was still hovering in that area, MP5 didn't want to go there and cause trouble.

But orders were orders. The mission to search for M4A1's whereabouts was personally issued by Gentiane. There was no reason for them to stop just because Renault's side was in the heat of battle, right?

At most... they could just be a bit more cautious.

Right now, the only explosions were coming from the factory area, and the other areas were very quiet.

As long as they didn't encounter that Sangvis Ferri Elite Doll again, they should be fine conducting the search cautiously, right?

As they moved away, the Sangvis elite Doll holding a giant sword looked strangely at the aircraft hovering in the sky.

"What's that thing?"

It didn't look like a military aircraft, and Sangvis Industries had never built such oddly-shaped flying vehicles.

Most importantly... those two turrets hanging beneath the fuselage of the aircraft, were they removed from a tank?

Who did the modification? Whoever it was, they were a damn genius!

A person with a slightly normal thought process wouldn't think to use tank turrets hanging upside down, right?

"And what are those guys doing? They don't seem like Griffin's bugs at all. Griffin doesn't have this kind of weird equipment."

With a skeptical raise of the eyebrow, the Sangvis elite Doll muttered to herself as she walked towards the direction of the battle.

The SF droid units behind her had just caught up and hadn't even stopped yet.

And upon seeing her running ahead, they had to quicken their pace to catch up.

As they got closer and closer to the factory area, the roar of gunfire became more and more pronounced.

The sound of machine gun fire hardly ceased, and a continuous rain of bullets fell from the sky onto the unidentified enemies below.

"Hey, hey! C96! Save some ammo! These shells are limited! It's not like the infinite ammo machine guns in games! Be careful, or the Commander will deduct your pocket money!"

Sitting on the aircraft, MDR, who was originally in the MG3 gunner's position, watched C96 beside her clinging to the trigger and hurriedly reminded her.

"Then..." Upon hearing MDR's words, C96 immediately came to her senses, but her eyes were fixed on the gun sight device occupied by MDR.

Seeing C96's little eyes, MDR guessed what this girl was thinking, and directly drew a cross in front of her, "No! Without the Commander's orders, and without seeing the heavily armored units, you can't fire randomly anymore!"

It was fine when MG3 fired a cheap high-explosive shell just now, as they were about to be hit by anti-air missiles if they didn't act quickly.

But now it was different. The only things they needed to deal with in the sky were the human PMCs emerging from their cover.

These guys apparently hadn't expected anyone to attack their camp, so when they were forced out of their hiding places by Reno, some of them weren't even wearing clothes.

But even so, it couldn't be denied that these guys had very rich combat experience and knew exactly when and where to avoid what kind of attack.

Therefore, although C96 had just fired a lot of ammunition, the number of combatants she actually hit was extremely low. These guys may look sloppy, but in reality, each one of them was as slippery as an eel in a mud puddle!

"Really... stingy... Hmm? Are those Dolls in the distance?"

"Indeed, but those guys don't look like ordinary dolls... Those guys are clearly Sangvis droids, right? And most importantly, among those units, there's one that looks quite familiar."

MDR scratched her cheek and looked at the Sangvis Doll observing the battlefield in the distance... She could vaguely recognize her, Exectioner produced by Sangvis Ferri Manufacturing.
