I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

The hunter, with his perceptive mind, deliberately concealed useful combat intelligence, simply mentioning that Sun Yang possessed extremely powerful psychic abilities and that he was no match for him. He didn't even mention Sun Yang's ability to be resurrected through the spiral sword, or that Rukatiye possessed formidable combat power.

Even when Rukatiye led his team into the Hunter's Chosen Fortress, it did not send anyone to stop them. The Hunter confidently invited these commandos to rush into the Ascension Module and enter the deepest part of the fortress through the teleportation network.

"So, are you looking for death?" Rukatiye, carrying the White King's giant sword and wearing the armored coat given by Sun Yang, asked the tall figure in the deepest part of the fortress.

She encountered almost no obstacles along the way. The elite XCOM team she brought with her were ready to die, but they reached the deepest part of the fortress without firing a shot.

The tall figure stood up, and the hunter looked at Rukatiye with his sniper rifle on his back.

Behind it is a large rectangular stone tablet, which contains powerful psychic energy, enough to heal the dying Chosen One to full health within an hour.

"I just have a suggestion, ma'am. Would you mind taking a few minutes to listen to me? This is a suggestion related to that...Master Sun Yang."

The hunter calmly held the sniper rifle, looking confident in his ability to convince Rukatiye. He was alone in the deepest part of the building, showing his sincerity, not even bringing any soldiers with him.

"...Tell me about it." Rukatiye hesitated for two seconds, but decided to listen to what the hunter had to say.

"Ma'am, please allow me to join Master Sun Yang's team!" the hunter said respectfully. His attitude changed so quickly.

465 Rukatiye vs Hunter

"Is this all you want to say before you die?" Rukatiye was completely uninterested in this. She raised the oversized sword on her shoulder, ready to launch a surprise attack.

"I'm not talking about XCOM, I'm talking about your organization! I know you are not in the same group as XCOM. Everyone in your organization is strong, and I like them very much. I have foreseen the decline of the Elders, and I hope to find a new organization before they are completely defeated. All psychic communications in this place are blocked, and they will not be found by those weak alien garbage!" The hunter spoke in a panic.

"Oh? That's good. But I can't pretend I didn't see the damage you caused to Sun Yang. Let's put it this way, you shoot yourself with the same number of shots as you shot Sun Yang with your pistol. The magnetic cannon counts as 100 rounds. If you haven't finished shooting by the time I get to you, I'll chop off your head." Rukatiye continued to move forward and put forward very harsh conditions.

"Then I will definitely die..." There were less than a hundred bullets in the hunter's pistol, and these bullets were enough to kill himself two or three times.

"Shoot yourself in the head now, and I might leave you with an intact body."

"Madam! I know that Master Sun Yang can be resurrected through that spiral sword, and you should have the same ability. I have not revealed this information to the elders, and no one else knows it! If I had revealed it, Master Sun Yang would have become garbage in space now! This is my sincerity!" The hunter said quickly.

"Do you think we'll never come back after being sent into space? You think you're useful just by hiding a little information. You're overestimating yourself." Rukatiye sneered. How could this guy still believe that undead would die suddenly in space?

Even if Sun Yang is not wearing anything, he can hold out for an hour with his pure body. If he can find a ventilator and use a protective miracle, he can hold out for a few hours to a day.

Moreover, Sun Yang can easily find a set of well-sealed power armor to put on, and then adjust the direction through the propulsion device behind him, and slowly orbit back to the earth.

As for the burning problem of breaking through the atmosphere, the worst that can happen is that you die a few more times, and then a human figure returns to its peak. If you really fight like this, it will be troublesome at most and take a little time.

The XCOM soldiers surrounding Rukatiye breathed a sigh of relief. They were genuinely worried that Rukatiye would recruit this Hunter, who held the lives of at least a hundred XCOM and Militia personnel. If he did, XCOM would be in turmoil.

"How can I join? You should know that I am a very good sniper. Why should you help these fragile humans! We who are stronger should rule this planet!" The hunter said excitedly. Its overly proud and complacent head finally realized that something was wrong.

"You are what Sun Yang called a socialist, right? You believe that the weak should be ruled by the strong. Then why can't you accept being dealt with by me at will with peace of mind? I am stronger than you, so what's wrong with me asking you to shoot me more than a hundred times?" Rukatiye spoke directly to himself.

"In the final analysis, you can only accept bullying others, but you can't accept being bullied by others. You have been in a high position for too long, and you feel uncomfortable once you can't control others. Even if you are recruited, it will only be detrimental to the organization." Rukatiye sighed.

"And you might not know this, but the only person who can recruit into our organization is Sun Yang. And Sun Yang's recruitment is conditional, and the first condition is... we don't recruit traitors. You can betray your original organization once, and you will betray countless times. I've explained it, kill it."

Rukatiye waved behind her and took advantage of the time she was talking to walk forward for a while, shortening the firing range of the XCOM elite soldiers.

These elite XCOM soldiers immediately retreated behind cover, firing their weapons at the hunters. The soldiers at the back pulled out their grenade launchers and raised their guns slightly.

Boom~Boom~Boom~The crisp sound of gunshots was heard, and the high-explosive grenades and stun grenades, under the action of the built-in guidance program, flew straight towards the bunker where the Chosen One was.

Seeing this, the Chosen One drew his pistol and repeatedly pulled the trigger, exploding the grenades one by one. After all, he was the Chosen One, so his skills couldn't be bad.

Although these self-locking grenades automatically adjust their flight trajectory, their lingering time is also longer than that of ordinary grenades. Hunters seize this lingering time to shoot down these deadly grenades.

Theoretically, as long as you can deal with these grenades, whether by resisting them, shooting them down, or using some other method, as long as you can deal with them, you will have the same combat power as the humanoids.

Although these projectiles could solve the problem, the dense firepower forced the hunters to temporarily avoid the attack.

It quickly raised its gun and fired from a tricky angle, a bullet imbued with psychic energy striking Rukatiye—but the bullet's effect was similar to the original, barely piercing the armored coat.

Rukatiye dodged in a very short time, and the bullet only hit her chest and abdominal muscles.

This kind of gunshot wound wasn't much use to Rukatiye; she could take ten more bullets without affecting her movements. After all, being shot in the arm or thigh would affect her sword swinging and running, while being shot in the stomach wouldn't really do her any harm.

"Why! Your leader has a strong body and immortal power. You must have similar power, right?! Why do you still want to cooperate with these weak humans?" The hunter roared with gritted teeth.

"Are we forming an alliance with an ugly freak like you? You think too highly of yourself. Your soldiers are provided by aliens, your powers are activated by aliens, and your weapons and equipment are all manufactured by aliens. The only thing you can offer is your military force; the rest is worthless."

Rukatiye ordered the XCOM soldiers to maintain suppressive fire, preventing the hunters from emerging from their cover. She drank a mixture of green grass and magic coffee, increasing her speed.

"Damn it! Why don't you use the power you have! You lunatics! What do you think you are, saviors? God?"

The hunter cursed while displaying his psychic skills. He first tried to summon reinforcements... A powerful psychic force enveloped the Chosen One's Fortress, making it impossible to summon helpers through psychic power to assist in the battle.

Then it tried to teleport out again... but it didn't work either. Psychic power prohibited any form of teleportation.

Were the elders trying to put him to death?! They had discovered his treason and were determined to force him to fight to the death for his life?!

"Everyone! Come here!" The hunter immediately turned to the internal communication network with psychic power to transmit orders. It had considered this situation before and did not let the alien troops come out to fight, but hid and waited for orders.

Its original plan was that if the negotiations broke down, it would use psychic teleportation to move to another place, allowing the remaining alien troops to hold back the troops trapped here.

Those alien troops were definitely no match for Rukatiye, so it asked the elders for more powerful firepower and combat units to kill the enemy, and then make long-term plans.

But it didn't expect things to turn out like this, things were completely out of its control!

"In the name of Rukatiye of the Miller Knights! I'm here to take your life!" Rukatiye roared and rushed forward.

But the hunter would not sit still and wait for death. It quickly threw out the flash grenades it carried with it. After these specially loaded grenades exploded, the flash of light illuminated the entire bottom floor, and the XCOM soldiers had to retract their heads - they could neither see nor hear anything.

The hunter was also affected. Its head was buzzing, it could not hear anything, and its eyes could not open because of the continuous flashing.

But it uses its psionic powers to detect the positions of nearby units, and it has already memorized the positions of those XCOM units. The Hunter rushed out within a second of the flash grenade exploding.

As expected, its escape from cover didn't draw a barrage of fire. Relying on his memory, the hunter fired repeatedly with his jet-black sniper rifle.

The psychic bullets killed several XCOM soldiers who thought they were safe. Although some XCOM soldiers tried to fight back, they were affected by the flash bombs and did not hit anything.

It is difficult to kill Rukatiye with psychic bullets, but if it is to hit other things, it is not a problem to destroy both the cover and the person.

The chests of these elite XCOM soldiers exploded, and the heavy metal bunkers in front of the soldiers were completely penetrated by the psychic bullets. Even solid bunkers were no match for the bullets with psychic energy.

Blood streamed from their chests as they fell to the ground, their weapons soaked in blood. The surviving soldiers around them gritted their teeth, forcing themselves to ignore their comrades' deaths. They could only pin all their hopes on Rukatiye. If she lost, no matter how many men remained, they would die.

"I'm stronger than even these most elite XCOM soldiers! I can take them all out! You should side with me, with the strong! I'll fight for you! I can slaughter everyone without a second thought! Why! Are you protecting such a weak soldier?!"

The hunter closed his eyes and rolled to the ground. However, the sense of danger he had cultivated in battle warned him loudly. Relying on his memory, the hunter swung his grappling claw and flew away.

But the hunter was still a step too slow. A sharp pain shot through his legs, and then he could no longer feel his legs below the knees. When he swung onto the platform, the hunter reluctantly opened his eyes and checked his feet.

Its legs were neatly sliced ​​open horizontally, the cuts as neat as a kitchen knife slicing through a piece of starchy ham. Yellow blood flowed from the cuts on its knees, but the hunter's powerful body quickly compressed the wounds, preventing further bleeding.

"You talk too much nonsense, blue man. My mission is to kill you, so no matter how ridiculous your words are, they will be useless. Do I have to make it clear? From the beginning to the end, I will never accept you into my organization. The best fate for you is to crawl down and let me chop off your head."

Rukatiye stood below with her eyes closed. Despite being directly exposed to the hunter's flashbang, she didn't faint or lose her sense of direction. After the deafening sound and flash, Rukatiye simply couldn't open her eyes temporarily. Even the temporary loss of vision didn't affect her combat effectiveness.

Just by capturing the soul, she was able to lock onto the hunter's position. At the appropriate distance, she unleashed the power of the White King's greatsword and swept the slender magical blade across.

It's just that the hunter ran too fast, and the sword that was originally intended to sweep across its head only cut off its two legs.

"You bunch of idiots with nothing but power! Sooner or later, you'll be dragged into hell!" The hunter, agitated by the pain in his legs, fell to the ground, grabbed his sniper rifle, and fired at Rukatiye.

"You start talking nonsense when you are not accepted. How pitiful. Do you still want to resist? I advise you to lie down quietly. This way you will die faster and more easily." Rukatiye still had the energy recovery buff and speed buff on his body. Facing the hunter's burst of fire, he quickly avoided the shots aimed at his vital points.

The hunter, unwilling to die, once again called out to the alien troops scurrying down the road, launching all its flashbangs while simultaneously expending as much psychic energy as possible, firing relentlessly. Rukatiye remained composed, quickly dropping to the ground as the flashbangs were launched, dodging the precise shots.

While Rukatiye was stunned and unable to see clearly, holding his breath and taking a defensive stance, the hunter immediately activated the emergency teleportation device, instantly teleporting himself into the stone slab deep inside. This feint could at least buy a little time.

It didn't want to die. It wanted to rely on the stone's abundant spiritual energy to heal its legs, allowing Rukatiye and XCOM to recover before the stone was destroyed. It wanted to survive no matter what. Even if the stone was destroyed, escaping from the ascension pod and living in anonymity for the rest of its life would be better than dying here!

As the hunter rushed into the stone slab, it immediately emanated a startling blue-purple glow. The hunter's body was rapidly repairing within the stone slab. However, this was a serious injury, and even the fastest recovery would take over ten minutes to heal.

Huh? The soul has moved away? Rukatiye, who could detect life energy, immediately noticed the other party's position had changed. It flew from a short distance overhead to a hundred meters away. If her memory served her correctly, there... seemed to be a stone slab that was said to heal people?

It seemed Sun Yang wouldn't have much use for this technique. Rukatiye thought about the automated doctor at home and felt that this stone slab, made of so much material and requiring psychic energy, was unreliable. So, without hesitation, she narrowed her eyes and leaped forward. Although the flashbang had only been going on for a few seconds, her eyes had almost recovered.

A faint magical blade flashed from the White King's greatsword and slashed across the stone slab. This time, it was a true battle of magic and psychic energy. The psychic stone slab used for healing could not withstand such a blow. Rukatiye swung the greatsword several times in a row, shattering the entire stone slab.

The moment the stone slab gave way and shattered, the hunter was ejected, sprawled on the ground. Its legs had barely grown a single bone, with no muscle yet. And with its heavy injuries and fall, it had even thrown its Black Spear sniper rifle out.

Chi! Rukatiye's massive sword, without a moment's hesitation, pierced the hunter's body from behind. The hunter's hands trembled as he tried to reach for his black spear, but ultimately gave up.

"So... this is what fear feels like..." The hunter slowly lowered his hand, "It's not... my style..." Soon, it stopped breathing.

Following the principle of the undead, Rukatiye chopped off the hunter's head and hung it on his waist. He then carried the hunter's body and picked up his Black Spear sniper rifle and Black Claw pistol. These were all trophies that needed to be taken back.

The XCOM soldiers gathered their comrades' bodies and equipment and hurried to the ascent pods. Their commander, Renna, urged them to leave as quickly as possible. The elders' strength was straining her. The alien forces could teleport in at any moment, and the remaining troops from the Chosen Fortress were also approaching.

When the psychic barrier of the Chosen Fortress was breached and a large number of alien forces were teleported to the lowest level of the Hunter Chosen Fortress, nothing remained. Neither XCOM nor the Chosen were left, only the broken stone slabs and buildings, and the bloodstains on the ground told of the brutal battle that had once taken place here.

466 XCOM is picking up the pieces

"Commander, the Rukatiye team has been confirmed to retreat. The troops around the Hunter Chosen Fortress are carrying out the evacuation mission according to the predetermined plan." Military Officer Bradford quickly summarized the first-hand intelligence information and handed it to Commander Lena who was giving orders to various combat teams.

"Okay, let them withdraw quickly. Teleportation is no longer restricted there." Commander Lena's eyes flashed with psychic light. She concentrated the remaining psychic power and tried her best to ensure the closedness of the Assassin's Chosen Fortress.

There are many rebels with poor fighting will and combat effectiveness around the Hunter Chosen Fortress and new recruits recruited by XCOM.

They organized a loose defense line outside the Chosen One's fortress to block the alien forces' advance. Some people also successfully activated a nearby abandoned military base and tinkered with a few usable anti-aircraft weapons.

When the aliens sent out air transport troops, these anti-aircraft weapons fired missiles and machine guns that had not been maintained for more than 20 years, shooting down the transport planes that were preparing to land and clear the area with air-to-ground weapons.

Thanks to these weapons, casualties near the Chosen Fortress were minimal. After suffering a dozen casualties, all human forces near the fortress broke up into smaller groups. Those who could escape did so, while those who could not hide in the city, leaving the area of ​​​​conflict through the escape routes devised by the rebels.

Shortly after Rukatiye's retreat from the Hunter Chosen's stronghold, the final Chosen stronghold was successfully breached. Unlike the arrogant Warlock, who lured the enemy into his lair, or the Hunter, who wanted to be a traitor, the Assassin Chosen was serious about taking on XCOM.

The assassin constantly appeared and disappeared while defending the fortress, using his shotgun, stun grenades and swords to deplete XCOM's manpower.

During the attack on the Assassin's Chosen Fortress, XCOM and the elite forces sent by various factions lost about a quarter of their forces. As a Chosen who excels in stealth operations, sneak attacks are not easy.

Even when occasionally discovered, she was able to kill or injure XCOM soldiers with only minor injuries.

After killing one or two people, the assassin would immediately activate the teleportation device, return to his repair slate, spend a few minutes healing the bullet holes on his body, and then run out without stopping to continue consuming XCOM's manpower.

However, XCOM still had the Reapers, Skirmishers, and Templars, so they put all their resources and manpower into attacking the Assassin's Chosen Fortress. They combined the forces used to attack the three fortresses into one, and with the advantage of firepower and numbers, they finally broke through the fortress.

After all, no matter how long she could drag the battle, the assassin's lethality was still the weakest among the three. She relied heavily on her Vanishing Wind psychic ability to hide her figure, and then fought with a shotgun or melee weapons at close range.

Assassins are not like hunters who can use sniper rifles to disgust people from a distance, or like warlocks who can directly burst out psychic energy to kill a large number of people.

XCOM has put all the wealth it has accumulated over the years into this, plus the new weapons developed by the Oasis research team, it is difficult for her to win by relying on her own and the defending troops.

However, at the bottom, the troops encountered a minor problem. The Chosen Assassin wasn't as foolish as her colleagues. She simply locked access to the Ascension Pod, prohibiting anyone from using it to reach the deepest part of the fortress. XCOM couldn't find the location anyway, so they simply had to drag it out. Time was on her side.

A Templar from the XCOM team then injected psychic energy into the ascension pod, while another XCOM soldier equipped with a wireless decoder plugged a custom wireless receiver into a nearby electronic device.

It's not like XCOM didn't do any preparatory work. The construction of the Chosen Fortress required considerable resources, so it's impossible for it to be completely untraceable. After all, it was built on the surface, so given enough time, XCOM could easily find some of the fortress's blueprints.

After inserting the receiver into the electronic device, Antonina in the XCOM flagship immediately began remote hacking, and within seconds she had overridden the access to the ascent module.

After all, the aliens in this world only have relatively abstract encryption algorithms and have not yet begun to develop AI and electronic technology. After all, the background of this era is that they were invaded in 2015, and the aliens have not developed much technology in this area afterwards.

Unfortunately, the Girls' Frontline world places a high value on information technology. Despite being a place ravaged by the Third World War and contaminated by landslides, the development of humanoids has led to a highly advanced electronic technology landscape.

One of the results is Antonina, a professional cybersecurity expert. No one knows cybersecurity better than her! Do you understand the value of being the world's strongest (limited to the Girls' Frontline world before 2058) cybersecurity expert?

She had already obtained a large amount of alien network information and had accumulated sufficient experience in cracking such things. Antonina even deliberately browsed sensitive information many times to draw out the transparent yellow original text.

However, she had set up many disguised accounts and fake access routes, so these original texts were in vain.

For safety reasons, Antonina held off on sending XCOM to attack the original brain. She would wait until all the Chosen Ones were defeated before deciding on anything else.

But, in short, the Assassin hadn't anticipated the Ascension Pod's being compromised. She hadn't had time to summon reinforcements or de-energize the Pod—and de-energizing it wouldn't have been helpful, since the Templars were simply using psionic energy to recharge it. Blame it on you, the aliens, for relying on psionic energy for everything.

A large group of warriors, ready to fight, rushed into the deepest part of the Chosen One's Fortress through the Ascension Chamber. All they could see were the screaming assassins.

In just a few minutes, the XCOM fighters had ripped the assassin and her resurrection tablet into pieces. The fighters retrieved the body and equipment of the Chosen Assassin, concluding the mission successfully.

At this point, the battle to defeat the Chosen One and deal a heavy blow to the alien forces has temporarily ended.

Commander Lena watched the troops in the window evacuate quickly, and the surrounding troops also acted according to the established plan. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew her psychic energy.

In an instant, large numbers of alien troops were teleported to the vicinity of the Chosen One's Fortress. Hundreds of Andromedan aliens and mutants emerged and rushed towards the fortress. However, the fortress was already deserted.

They can then come and clean up the mess. In this battle, both the aliens and XCOM suffered heavy losses, but at least XCOM achieved its tactical goal and killed all three Chosen Ones.

"The Assassin Chosen Squad is returning, the Hunter Chosen Squad is returning, and the Warlock Chosen Squad is on standby. Commander, Master Sun Yang has not returned yet." Military Officer Bradford reported the battle situation to Lena.

[You don't need to contact the professor about this.] Antonina's projection suddenly appeared on the tablet in the military officer's hand, and she quickly explained.

The Professor is currently processing what remains of the Warlock Chosen Fortress. You should know what he has done, right?
