Chapter 1715 Who Will Know? -Part 37
"Are we going to really leave Jin on the ground if we were to check the last underground basement?" Click asked as she reluctantly changed her loadout to the normal bullets.
"We can bring him with us as well, but he would probably be a bullet sponge if no one took care of him." Yinn also told the rest to keep the penetrating rounds at a corner they were able to assess easily since she did not have any idea what lay ahead of them.
"But we cannot leave him here. If the enemies ran away and saw an enemy sleeping peacefully at the corner, what do you think they would do to him? Doodle on his face with a marker?" Tellie asked.
"More like doodle his face with bullets. Muahahha" Diaz laughed and proceeded towards Jin. "I carry him since my Gunzerker abilities will allow me to shoot even without a gun. Although it would be best if Click could create two machine gun turrets attached to my back or shoulders? That would be more helpful than me trying to shoot using my mouth."
"Lol, that would be awfully scary if you merely open your mouth wide and bullets came out from there. You might as well spit wherever you go." Click said allowing Diaz to entertain on that idea while she made those turrets as Diaz had requested. "Do you want to have a mini gun to go along with your suit?"
"Haha very funny. I don't have that kind of capacity within my body."
"I mean I can create an ammo tank and there should still be a mini gun at the armoury."
"Eh.. about that," Tellie interjected. That exit is a no go after that stupid Fira Dragon slammed one of the Mecha Fire Dragons there… or was it us that caused it? Don't remember."
"We will check the viability of the escape route later. Otherwise, there is always the poorly patched up hole above Hangar Bay 7 that we might be able to utilise with jet boosters." Yinn said as she checked if everyone else was ready.
"Hang on, Let me just connect the turret with Diaz's body so that it could feed the machine gun rounds from her body." Click replied and after a few checks, the turrets were working, and thus, Diaz carried Jin and was the position as the second last in the squad with Page at her rear in case things went real south.
The Grey Bear squad stayed a metre back as Yinn opened the doorway. Thankfully, it was not rigged or booty trapped and the Grey Bear Squad as tired as they could be walked down the stairs as carefully as they could to find themselves opening the door to the last basement floor.
When they opened it, Yinn breathed out a huge sigh of relief, followed by the remaining squad members who walked through it. It was a storage area for all the equipment and materials that were accumulated for the creation of the Mecha Fire Dragon.
There were even more weapons and other prototypes that seemed to be partially completed and later scrapped given the amount of cobwebs that was left in the room. Other than that, there were no humans nor Mechanoids in the area but the Grey Bear Squad remained vigilant. Page and Diaz were left at the basement's entrance while Click and Tellie stuck closely behind Yinn as they systematically cleared each and every room they could unlock.
Eventually, they reached the last final room where there was a huge safe door within it. "As much as I want to know what's in there. I think we should be able to leave this to the experts and government officials to deal with this." Yinn said and Click boo-ed at her.
"After working so hard, surely opening that humongous safe should be a priority, no? Imagine if there were riches in there or maybe dungeon artefacts that could help us in the fight against future Monster Mechanoids? Surely, you do not want to miss out on that fact, right?"
"Hey guys! There are custom packs here too. Remember the package thingy that the Archduke Engineer had installed for us? It seems there are lower numbered series in here as well." Diaz shouted through the basement as she got tired of guarding and went looking around.
"Is that how those Monster Mechanoids could be so strong? They have numbered packages?" Tellie asked and they got distracted by Diaz's finding.
"We don't have to touch those packages. I am sure Master Flammet can make customised software and hardware package for us!" Click shouted back and then turned back to Yinn. "So yeah. We fought like shit, at least we try to crack it open and see if we can any artefacts that might prove useful. Who knows? There might be an artefact that allows us to control elements like how Jin used those electricity moves."
"Oh. Like my energy blast? I was able to change the element to electric when I shot the beams against the Mecha Fire Dragon. It's a bit tricky to do the conversion though." Tellie said and Click shook her head.
"I honestly believed Jin could do more than fire and lightning. I remembered seeing him manipulate wind elements as well and there might be a chance he could do other kinds of elements like some king of magicks." Click explained. (The System was amused by this conversation)
"Fine. Fine. We will attempt to break the safe and at most when we get here, it is already forced open. Besides, I would be lying if I said I am not interested in getting some rewards after coming this far." Yinn finally compromised and Click was delighted. She started to fiddle with the controls and checked if her explosives were sufficient to break the locks.
In the meantime, the rest of the Grey Bears walked around to check and log what other things they could find in this lofty cave of 'loot'.
