Survive in Azure Files

By using the entire game development department except Alice as a cushion.

"Thank you for helping us. Well, Amy," Qing asked, "we don't have time to go into detail about the specific plan for now, so could you help pick up Tao Jing and the others later?"

"OK."

After receiving Amy's reply, Qing looked around and said, "Well, let's begin the first phase of the operation."

"Oh!!!"

The girls all raised their hands with full of fighting spirit, cheering themselves on, and I cheered along with them.

Unfortunately, this time, I am not on the same side with them.

I regret betraying everyone's trust in me. But...

As one of the masterminds behind this action, he actually played an important role within the team. In addition to the subtle sense of guilt, it was even more exciting!

Just like that, the doomed operation to recapture the [Mirror] officially began.

The bottom floor of the Millennium Tower.

The game development department that was responsible for the main attack in the first phase came here, and Amy and I stayed here together, responsible for command and preparing for support respectively.

As for the Ministry of Truth and the Engineering Department, the former stayed in the activity room to provide remote support, while the latter worked overtime to produce security systems and anonymously flowed into the market, which would be the first choice for procurement at the seminar.

However, the game development department alone is sufficient to carry out the first phase of the plan.

Xiaoyu's voice came from the communication: "Teacher, I'm counting on you."

"Well, just leave it to me."

I made this promise while sending a momotalk to Amy next to me.

Me: That’s the plan. Any questions?

Amy: It's amazing that you could say such nice things to your seniors in the Ministry of Truth while discussing with me behind my back how to betray me efficiently and covertly.

For a moment, many strange associations emerged in my mind.

Calls, deception, distraction, betrayal, concealment...

But isn't my position a little weird?!

Me: Don’t think too much.

Amy: Eh? That doesn’t count…

Amy: Anyway, I totally get it.

Amy: Once we receive the order, we will start the mission immediately.

Putting my phone away, I looked towards the game development department which had already arrived in front of the elevator door.

After a moment, a solid light appeared, and after a precisely calculated force, it just destroyed the door with the highest level of security system. Then, the game development department entered through the gap, took the elevator that was still usable, and went straight to the seminar on the top floor.

-

"Light! Energy overload, launch--"

Alice recited words that sounded like lines from an RPG game and easily knocked down dozens of robots in the straight corridor.

Some were completely destroyed, while others were temporarily unable to rise again, followed closely by a grenade from Yuzu.

However, even with a combination of laser cannons and grenades, the attack range is still limited.

The fish that had managed to escape by chance took advantage of the moment when Alice's weapon was overheated and could not be fired again and attacked.

But what greeted them were several 7.62mm rifle bullets, which accurately hit their core parts.

Finally, a figure flashed in front of Alice:

"I will be responsible for covering you and will not let you succeed!"

As Taoi said this, she fired at the robots that had no power to resist, successfully gaining the most kills in this encounter.

"Sister, don't waste bullets, remember to fight quickly and decisively!"

"Tsk, that's a bargain for them."

Tao Jing, who originally wanted to whip the corpse, said angrily.

They had already passed through several gates and walked through the corridor. In front of them was the seminar's combat command center.

"There will definitely be C&C people guarding ahead." Green reminded, "Everything should be carried out according to the plan. Alice, thank you for your hard work."

"Alice will complete the task seriously!"

"Well, I believe you."

Just as the girls were getting ready to enter the finish line of the first stage.

A noisy communication with chaotic electrical sounds came through.

“Run…Run quickly, no, hide…” Qing’s voice was intermittent, “In advance…The teacher and Amy are on their way…Hold on!”

Faced with this sudden situation, everyone in the game development department became alert.

Tao Jing was confused: "Is Qing telling us to run away or hide? Why? It has come to this!"

Yuzu frowned and said, "She also said to do it in advance... and that we need the teacher and Amy to come over, and she also said that we have to hold on. Could it be that..."

"Senior Qing, who has always been calm, has something happened?" Midori said, "Anyway, the current situation is very wrong, let's find a room to hide first."

Taoi and Yuzu both agreed with Midori's proposal and planned to take action immediately.

Only Alice.

"Alice, let's go." Taoi urged.

"…Someone is walking towards this side. Judging from the footsteps, there should be only one person."

Hearing Alice's words, Tao Jing became alert: "Could it be an enemy? We can't be seen until we successfully hide. If there is only one person, we should force our way through."

At this point, Tao Jing curled his lips and said, "It seems that it is my turn to show my skills. Don't make any moves, just wait and see my superb marksmanship!"

"Confirmed that the subject is approaching. Searching the Millennium student list... The subject's identity has been obtained."

Tao Jing raised his gun and prepared to fight back.

"146cm tall, dual-wielding submachine guns," Alice said, "General Sika, wearing a dragon pattern over her maid outfit."

In an instant, the smile on Taoi's face froze.

"What's going on? Hide quickly!" Green shouted in panic.

But it's too late.

"...Oh? You dare to point a gun at me?"

Megan Nero turned the corner and looked at the trembling Taoi. He raised his eyebrows and showed a bloodthirsty smile: "You are very brave."

Chapter 66: Yuka feels uneasy

After hearing what Nero said, Momoi, who was originally filled with panic, miraculously calmed down.

Can you win?

Tao Jing asked herself silently. In just a moment, she came up with the answer.

You will lose.

Even if they had the advantage in numbers, even if they had weapons beyond their capabilities like the Sword of Light, how could they possibly win against Nero, the strongest being of the millennium?

Even if Taoi relied on his amazing wisdom to turn the tide of the war, the game development department was doomed to fail when the seminar and C&C members who were hiding in the combat command center joined the battle.

However, even though they were doomed to fail, Tao Jing and everyone in the game development department had already made up their minds.

The community must be protected at all costs.

For this reason, even if I have to face Nero-senpai——

Perhaps if she were sacrificed alone, the others could escape?

With this in mind, Tao Jing made up his mind. With his fingers no longer trembling, he pulled the trigger at Nero:

"Everyone! Quick..."

However, he didn't have time to finish.

Nero leaped forward, and with the amazing explosive power and balance contained in his small body, he actually used the wall as a foothold and easily avoided all the bullets. Even with Nero's mysteriousness, there was no need for him to dodge at all.

Taoi subconsciously wanted to move the muzzle of the gun to follow Nero who was moving on the wall.

But it was too fast.

Not even a second had passed since Taoi fired the shot.

Nero had already crossed a distance of more than ten meters.

The chain connecting the submachine gun collided with the wall and made a crisp sound, which was covered by the roar of the strongest maid and the continuous gunfire:

"Ola Ola Ola!"

In an instant, Tao Jing was engulfed by the hail of bullets, and with a scream, he fell backwards to the ground.

"elder sister!"

"Momoi!"

The girls, who hadn't reacted yet, called out to Momoi.

Nero landed lightly on the ground. "Is that you? The problem children who broke into the seminar."

Midori murmured, "How, how could it be, isn't Senior Nero..."

"I see. So you got the information about my going out on business."

Nero put the gun on his shoulder and looked at Midori and Yuzu standing side by side in front of him with a grin: "But now, I'm back early. You bastards, if you don't want to be beaten, just surrender honestly and save me some energy."

Midori couldn't help but yell, "We won't give in easily!"

Nero's eyes became more playful. "Huh? Even after seeing your companions being defeated so easily by me, you still won't give up?"

“That’s right!” Yuzu mustered up all her courage, “Even if our opponent is that Nero-senpai…we will…”

Hearing this, Nero laughed happily. "Hahaha! Very good! Should I say that you are overestimating your abilities or that you are courageous? Well, either way is fine. I will talk about rewarding the younger generation after everything is over. Next, all of you give me..."

Suddenly, Nero's ears moved and he frowned, "Huh? Was there some noise... huh!?"

Although she finally noticed something was wrong, it was too late.

Midori and Yuzu quickly moved to the sides, revealing Alice, who had been blocked behind them from the beginning, and the sword of light that had completed its charge—

The next moment, the light cannon burst out and directly hit Nero, who was relaxed due to carelessness and caught off guard.

The floor beneath your feet.

"It, it worked!" Yuzu exclaimed.

Midori carried her sister, who was too weak to fight and kept muttering "Cry!", on her back.

"Everyone, retreat quickly, otherwise it will be terrible."

Alice nodded to Yuzu, then fled to a nearby room as fast as she could...

-

Seminar Operations Command Center.

Looking at the surveillance footage, Yuuka couldn't help but ask the maid with glasses who was leisurely beside her:

"Are you really not going to go out and help?"

"Yes. It's more important to hold on to this place than to chase after the kids from the game development department. If this is a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, it will be bad. Besides..."

Zhu Yin smiled slightly: "I don't want to spoil Nero's fun."

At this moment, on the monitor, a hand was grabbing the edge of the big hole on the floor.

The next person who came up was Nero, who was almost intact, but covered in dust and had a sadistic smile on his face.

Yuka's eyes twitched. Then, the accountant of the seminar took a deep breath and smiled brightly:

"Is there a possibility that I am just worried that Senior Nero is enjoying himself so much that he even forgets that he is in the Millennium Tower?"
