Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 141 140. It's like a brother suddenly drives a Land Rover

If I remember correctly, these two had just left the corporate mercenaries not long ago.

Seifer had a good impression of these two young men. They had ideas, dared to work on their own and did not want to be company dogs. Moreover, they actually dared to go to the node city with two broken guns.

But this time the change is really big, and for a moment it does look a bit like robbing someone's armory.

The two young men named 'Luo' and 'Shao Gu' have been touring the node city together to carry out missions. Thanks to their good luck and the reliable teammates they met, they have been able to climb to where they are now.

Shaogu was displeased by Seifer's question. He immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't slander someone's innocence out of thin air! This... this is what we earned from completing the mission!"

Tien folded her arms and sighed in amazement. "A one-way shield starts at 80,000, and these two guns are customized, so they'll cost at least 20,000."

"This enhanced equipment of yours was also stolen by Abian Company... and it costs at least a hundred thousand yuan on the market."

Including Sefer, the three of them stared at Tien in surprise. Tien waved her hand nonchalantly, "What are you looking at? I was a professional pirate after all, so I have to have a good grasp of valuations."

"Otherwise, if I saw something valuable and left without taking it, what a shame!"

Tien said this confidently with his hands on his hips, not worried at all that he would be hanged and beaten to death for proclaiming that he was a pirate.

Cypher didn't know how much the two young men heard, but their eyes were always on the tight-fitting protective suit and the thing that was drooping from half of the outer protective suit, but was still tall and trembling.

"Anyway, are you two free now? If you are, please organize us. I want to go to the production workshop area in the upper area. I have some personal matters to take care of - and I happen to have a commission that hasn't expired yet."

Seifer took out his own tasks and shared them with the two people's new information terminals. When they took a look, they were shocked. The rewards for the upper-level area tasks were twice as much as the current tasks of developing the middle-level area?
Luo asked cautiously why the income was so high?

"The main thing is, there's a side mission here. Shutting down the production plant's assembly line is only the surface mission. The side mission is to find traces of other people who might be inside."

"You've all experienced this before, right? It's clearly our assigned mission area, but for some reason another team shows up. Our job is to catch these kinds of teams."

Shao Gu nodded and nudged Luo with his elbow: "Do you want to take this kind of mission?"

"Take it, why not? The pay is so high and it's in the upper-class area. It would be a big loss if I don't take it."

After the two men finished their discussion, Sefer did not delay at all. The four of them accepted the task and entered the elevator waiting room. During this time, he kept whispering something, which made Shaogu a little curious.

After entering the elevator, Seifer turned around and said, "Our mission is to enter the assembly line factory through the passageway, where the quarantine area has been sealed."

"The situation inside the factory is unknown. It is mainly responsible for producing autonomous devices for the defense of those areas. Therefore, you will encounter a stronger defense team."

Sefer suddenly stopped, let Tien continue, then turned around and continued to communicate other things in a low voice.

Sticking the gun on the ground, Tien stood leisurely and steadily in the shaking elevator. The part of him that was shaking in disharmony with his body made the two young men stare in amazement.

Let’s be frank, although small ones are good, big ones can attract attention.

"So, once we get down there, the number of general patrol units will decrease, but more elite units will appear. This means that for those who use the weapons of the modified organizations, there will be no shortage of weapons and ammunition."

"We need to be careful. The factory area is complex, and the team must not get separated. Otherwise, there's a high probability that someone will be left alone and immediately eliminated by various units that specialize in targeting humans." Tien paused, a little unhappy with this formulaic statement. "Also, we need to be careful of other rats. The place we're going to may have been infiltrated by something."

"Get it? You need to smash those metal rubbish, then focus on those rats hiding in the dark. If possible, pull them out and break their necks. Sounds like a good image, right?"

The two nodded hurriedly.

The elevator took a while to reach its destination. When Cypher turned back to check his weapons, Tien asked the two newcomers what he had been mumbling about.
"Well, some meaningful education on getting along with others is progressing smoothly so far."

"Don't worry, when we need to fight later, this kind of thing won't affect the battle, because we have almost finished preparing everything we need to do today."

Without saying what it was specifically, the four of them checked their weapons and ammunition, confirmed that the safety was on and they could enter combat mode at any time, and then, led by Seifer, the group quickly stepped into the pipe of the maintenance passage.

Specifically, Seifer's previous education was indeed effective. After the initial entanglement and discomfort, Leica really adjusted the way of getting along with his roommates according to his words.

At the beginning, I was still ridiculed a few times, but there is a saying that goes - don't hit a smiling person, especially someone who obviously gave me real money as a benefit.

Although Laika was still being treated with hostility by the group, the hostility had improved a lot after the initial communication and the opportunities for one-on-one communication and goodwill.

Leica was under great pressure to force herself to do things that she usually didn't think about. Fortunately, with Sefer as her solid support and psychological counseling, she completed the first stage of contact very well.

The next step is to find a single breakthrough point and improve the trust level of the three people individually and one by one without knowing each other.

All of this requires Leica's own efforts - fortunately, as an intelligence officer, she has accumulated a considerable amount of intelligence information, and Dr. Mei has started to help her cram in the elective course of behavioral logic, with remarkable results.

End of digression, back to the current situation, the four of them put on lights, but unfortunately this time it was not a major power outage, nor was it filled with steam, it was just that the number of enemies was a little too large.

Moreover, they were all elite soldiers, and their firepower was dense and noisy. Just at the first turn, they almost made the four men unable to raise their heads.

At this time, Seifer's first reaction was to let himself go up and do a close-range CQC to teach these things a lesson, but he didn't expect that the two newcomers... no, now they should be called old people, took out two boxes of grenades from their backpacks.

Produced by Abian, this is a highly effective fragmentation grenade. The fragmentation steel balls in it are not propelled by gunpowder, but by disposable electromagnetic shrapnel. When ejected, they can easily destroy thin armor.

...How should I put it, it's very creative, but the cost of this consumable is a bit exaggerated.

The two of them excitedly took several and hung them on the buckles, then threw them out without hesitation!

In Tien's eyes, they were simply using money to hit monsters.

Fortunately, after collecting ammunition, Cypher was finally able to take out his main weapon - the big machine gun.

The weapon that should have been placed on the ground was now held in Seifer's hand. The firepower it unleashed was so strong that he could kill almost any kid with every shot.

Even heavy armor specialized for armor-piercing bullets can't withstand a few hits.
