"It's over! It's over! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die... Himeko, Bronya, and Seele are all locked behind the door. Ryn and Ryn probably died together in a lovers' suicide... Waaah... Is there anyone who can save me!!"
Yiselian hugged her head, crouching under an office desk, crying and shouting.
"Shut up, you f**king crier**. If you **cry** again, I'll throw you out and let those mechs finish you off!"
Emisha, holding two submachine guns, rushed in front of Yiselian and dragged her out from under the desk. Yiselian took the opportunity to cling tightly to Emisha.
Emisha fired at the mechs behind her while carrying Yiselian, the dead weight on her leg, and escaping.
"Wuwuwu... Emisha, I suddenly find you much more pleasant to look at. Even your cursing sounds so nice..."
Yiselian wiped her tears and snot all over Emisha's leg. Emisha's attention was fully focused on the mechs behind them and her Medical Department members, so she didn't notice. Otherwise, Emisha would have definitely pulled Yiselian off and made her run on her own.
"Don't call me Emisha. By the way, where are your Engineering Department people? You **didn't** abandon them to save your own skin, did you!"
"How could I... Although I'm a coward, I would never betray my comrades! I had them set up a defensive line outside while I came back to escort you..."
"Escort us? You**, your legs tremble so much you can't walk whenever there's danger, and you came to escort us? If we hadn't passed by here, you'd probably be a pile of mush by now."
"Guh..." Yiselian was speechless because Emisha was telling the truth...
Smack—
Emisha and the Medical Department members suddenly stopped in their tracks. The abrupt halt caused Yiselian to rip Emisha's clothes and go flying due to inertia...
"Why did you stop..."
"Shut up... Dammit, we're surrounded."
At that moment, on the group's escape route ahead, rows of combat mechs with glowing red eyes and sharp blades were waiting for them.
And behind them, dozens of combat mechs were in pursuit.
After assessing the situation, Yiselian simply lay down on the ground and gave up resisting.
"This is really it... My life is over~"
Emisha was too angry to bother with this scoundrel Yiselian anymore. She took a wrench out of her pocket and threw it in front of Yiselian.
"Hmm? Why are you giving me a wrench?" Yiselian picked up the wrench, puzzled. "You don't expect me to fight them with a wrench, do you...?"
"I figure you definitely don't want to be torn to shreds by the mechs, so I'm giving you a wrench to kill yourself. Come on, let me see you perform a wrench-to-the-head before you die."
Emisha looked at Yiselian with disgust. Emisha had always felt the Engineering Department was useless, and now Yiselian was constantly demoralizing the troops...
"Er... I'm afraid of pain, so never mind... Seeing how powerful these mechs' firepower is, I'll probably die in an instant, so there shouldn't be too much pain... so I'll pass on the wrench..." Yiselian hesitated for a moment and handed the wrench back to Emisha.
Emisha picked up the wrench and weighed it in her hand. "I'm gonna f**king kill you right now!"
Swish—
A red light shot past Yiselian's eyes...
The wrench Emisha had raised high fell to the ground...
The red light then passed through the Medical Department team members...
Yiselian's pupils dilated abruptly. Time seemed to stop at that moment, but it was immediately followed by an explosion and a gust of wind that swept over her, making her unable to see or hear clearly.
Boom—
Yiselian didn't know what happened, but she knew she would soon be like everyone else.
——————————————
——————————————
A moment later, Yiselian's hearing returned, but she didn't dare to open her eyes. She was afraid that the moment she did, she would see the dismembered limbs of Emisha and the others...
I'm not dead... Maybe I was too weak and the mechs ignored me...
That's fine...
Just live on humbly like this...
How is that possible! I know I'm useless... but there's no way I'm just going to survive like this!
Yiselian fumbled for the wrench from memory, then abruptly stood up and charged forward with her eyes closed.
"Aaaah! I'll fight you to the death!"
Clang—
Yiselian crashed headfirst into Ryn, who was coming to help her up...
Then they both fell to the ground...
This stunned not only Ryn, but also Ryn, who was exchanging information with Emisha nearby.
Just as the mechs were about to attack, Ryn arrived in time with Ryn.
The Heat Vision melted all the mechs in front of Yiselian and her team at the waist, then passed by Emisha and landed on the mechs behind the Medical Department members.
The air where the Heat Vision had passed became scorching hot. The wrench transmitted the temperature the fastest, and Emisha's hand was burned, causing her to let go and drop it.
"Yiselian, what are you trying to do... take your savior down with you?"
Just as Ryn finished speaking, Emisha picked up her notepad, rushed over, and gave Yiselian's stupid head a couple of whacks.
"Emisha? You're not dead?!"
"How dare you curse me to die!" Emisha exclaimed, then straddled Yiselian and started to pummel her.
"You've been corrupted by Honkai energy! Sorry, but please die here!"
"Stop! I'm fine! I haven't been corrupted!"
"I'm a doctor. If I say you're corrupted, you're corrupted!"
"I'm not! Help! Emisha is trying to kill me!"
Watching the two rivals, Yiselian and Emisha, bickering endlessly, Ryn shrugged helplessly and pulled up Ryn, who was still sitting on the ground.
"We've roughly confirmed Seele's and the others' location. Let's go support them."
"Okay."
Now that they knew the direction, it would be too slow to find them by following the building's layout. Ryn kicked a hole in the one-meter-thick alloy wall in front of him and ran inside with Ryn.
The commotion Ryn made startled Emisha, who was beating the crap out of Yiselian. Yiselian took the opportunity to struggle free from under Emisha.
Although Emisha definitely didn't really want to kill her, her desire to beat her up was certainly real...
Emisha couldn't be bothered with Yiselian anymore and walked straight to the large hole Ryn had previously made. Looking through it, Ryn had already punched countless holes and disappeared from their sight.
"This... is too ridiculous..." "Indeed..." "Suddenly, I feel like we might actually live to see the future..."
Emisha, like the other shocked team members, kept exclaiming in amazement at the hole.
"Don't just stand there, let's go. I have a bad feeling about this building. I keep feeling like there's something dangerous above my head..."
Yiselian looked up at the ceiling, trying to see through the concrete and steel to find out what was emitting a dangerous aura from the top of the building, but unfortunately, she couldn't see anything...
"What danger could there be... It's not like all the holes Ryn made are the support walls of ME Corp, right?"
"Not likely. I've studied the building's structure here. It's not that easy to collapse."
