NIKKE, when the stars bloom

"You ask me what I, a man without arms and legs, am going to do with such a big thing? Aren't you the ace commander of the special forces? You should think of a solution!"

"..."

"...Hey, wasn't there a third-rate commander who told me to follow his instructions just now?"

With such an opportunity in front of her, how could Yinhua not seize it after being stunned? She quickly retorted, as if she was afraid that the other party would hang up the phone.

"What? You want to be my soldier now?"

"?"

……

……

"Tsk!"

After hearing the sharp retort from the sour-faced girl, a commander named Filipino who was hiding outside the ammunition depot half-squinted his eyes, rubbed his jaw as if his teeth were itchy, and secretly made up his mind.

This hatred is about dignity.

Have to report it!

"Why, do you have a plan?"

The petty man retorted, "If you have a plan, tell me. How do you think my position with three sides leaking air can help you?"

"...Heh, if you can survive, you'll be doing me a big favor."

After jumping off the transport plane, Yinhua and his teammates came to the rooftop of an office building. Then he raised his gun indifferently and shot several flying Letchers without missing a beat, while his words were even more unreasonable.

"If you die here, how many reports will I have to write when I get back? Do you know?"

"Wow~ That sounds quite tempting. It makes me want to die."

"If you really don't want to live, why did you crawl out from underground just now? Wouldn't it be easier to just bury you?"

"What you mean, don't I have to make sure you can beat me first? What if you don't have the chance to write a report after I die? Wouldn't that mean I died in vain?"

"Tsk, just a bigger tyrant who can't even move. Do you think I will fall into the hands of such a bastard?"

"Heh, aren't we the ones being chased and attacked by firepower now?"

On arguing with people,

The two people who kept arguing with each other and refused to back down were definitely the role models in the world of stubbornness and arguing with others.

However, unfortunately, whether it is Yinhua or Phoenix, both of them are top-notch team commanders in the eyes of all mankind, they really can't think of any tricks when facing the simple and unpretentious firepower coverage of Secret Material H.

The only way is to confront it head-on.

This was a conclusion that the two of them did not say explicitly, but they both knew it.

Boom boom boom boom…

Two honeycomb missile launchers locked onto the transport plane's position and fired more than a dozen small anti-aircraft missiles in succession.

Afterwards, the nameless ace pilot proved with his strength why he could become the special forces' exclusive driver.

Several guided missiles were seen ejected from both sides of the transport plane and thrown to the west, while the aircraft, under the control of the pilot, turned behind a building in the east at a difficult low-altitude flight posture.

Immediately, an explosion sounded, and an anti-aircraft missile worth more than 100 million credit points exploded like fireworks in the air.

"Quick! Marianne!"

At this moment, Phoenix seized the opportunity and shouted to the girl beside him:

"Are you sure about this distance?"

"No problem, Commander!"

Marian, who had already pulled the fuse of the grenade, didn't hesitate at all. She swung her arm and threw the high-explosive grenade high up, accurately throwing it into a barrel of the honeycomb missile launcher.

boom--! ! !

All I saw was flames shooting up into the sky!

Perhaps it was because the launcher was in the process of reloading ammunition, a mere grenade had the effect of detonating an ammunition depot, blowing the honeycomb missile launcher into pieces, a horrific sight.

"Wow~ Captain of the special forces, did you see the explosion?"

Seeing that his trick worked, Phoenix immediately shouted into the team chat:

"One to zero."

"whispering sound."

On the other side, seeing the explosion that looked like a small mushroom cloud from afar, Yinhua wrinkled his small and delicate nose and turned his head to look at Bestie.

"Go straight to the container."

"……Oh."

Upon hearing the captain's order, Besti, with a flash of madness in her eyes, changed her usual delicate appearance, excitedly released her own restrictions, and lit up and activated the missile container at the bottom of the transport plane.

Boom boom boom boom——

In the blink of an eye, dozens of ground-to-ground missiles were launched from the container one after another, rushing towards the various weapons and devices of Secret Material H.

explosion!

The explosion lasted for more than a minute!

Under the anti-aircraft firepower of the Tyrant-class Letcher, more than a dozen ground-to-ground missiles still escaped the defense network, and it was not until seventeen firepower devices were destroyed that the enemy finally stopped.

"Seventeen to one."

In the headphones, Yinhua sounded calm, but in fact he was so proud that the corners of his mouth began to rise.

"..."

"What? Are your ears deafened?"

"..."

Just wait for me!

Just when someone was secretly cursing the foul-mouthed girl for being shameless, several special reminder sounds for joining the team suddenly popped up in the team channel.

"Instructor, Marciana reports to you."

"Instructor, Nadja reports to you."

"Instructor, Tia reports to you."

"Instructor, Tswai wishes you a happy ..."

"Instructor, Aiyinxiang..."

"Instructor..."

Nine crisp and clear reports caused the team's language to fall into an eerie silence.

With the permission of the Intelligence Department, Marciana returned to the battlefield with his students and was now anxiously waiting for Phoenix's response.

Not only her, the other eight students felt the same way.

In the end, everyone disobeyed the instructor's orders and chose to risk their lives to help him fight.

The instructor...

He must be very angry now...

"You came just in time!"

Teachers and students: “?”

"All of you follow my command! I'm going to kill this Letcher today!"

"Emma! Bestie! Close the combat distance. The company's mission for us is to capture this Tyrant-class Letcher!"

"Take it! This is Ark's assets!"

"Hey, how about I shoot it down and give it to you?"

"Hehe, this is the betrothal gift I'm going to give you."

"You...you! What are you saying!!!"

"Huh? Didn't you hear clearly? Do you want me to say it again?"

"Shut up, you third-rate guy!!!"

Marciana: "..."

A group of students Nikki: "..."

Marianne: "..."

Chapter 97: Untitled

There is an old saying: When you are poor, use tactical infiltration; when you are rich, use firepower bombing.

Logically speaking, including Yinhua, Phoenix can currently command as many as twelve non-mass-produced Nikkis.

Taking the Nikki team of three people as an example, the current battle situation is equivalent to four Nikki troops besieging a Tyrant-class Letcher at the same time.

Among them, there is also the ace from the Pure Land of Bliss.

With such a luxurious lineup, all they need to do is push forward step by step. With Phoenix's command ability, the defeat of Secret Material H is only a matter of time.

However, Alnik's occasional flashing red light and unstable body posture did not allow him to do so.

Likewise, Ning Ya and Sabol, whose lives and deaths were unknown, would not allow him to waste time like this.

Then,

Phoenix, which put saving lives as its top priority, was forced to take radical offensive measures.

Under the man's tough command, Tia and Diesel, who were armed with heavy firepower, blew up the most important fire turrets of Secret Material H. Naga, Marciana and others threw a large number of smoke bombs and jamming bombs, making the battlefield full of smoke, like a "fairyland".

Afterwards, relying on the cover of gray smoke, Commander Fei and his Nikkis rushed into the building-shaped body of the Tyrant-class Letcher without hesitation.

[One hour...forty-eight minutes...]

When someone risks his life and walks through the hail of bullets.

In his mind, Anik, who was fighting against the erosion virus with computing power, reported the time to him every minute.

——That was the time that was counted from the moment Neia was injured.

——Three hours.

Excluding the panacea of ​​the antidote, the only way to save a corrupted Nikki is to brainwash her within three hours.

Minus the time it takes for the transport plane to carry the wounded back to the Ark, the time it takes for the elevator to descend, and the complicated approval process of the Ark's insects, the effective rescue time estimated by the artificial intelligence is actually only a pitiful two hours and twenty minutes.

This number is the theoretical limit time obtained after repeated deductions.

In Anik's opinion, the truly conservative rescue time was only a pitiful two hours and five minutes.

In other words, Ning Ya only had seventeen minutes left to be completely eroded.

Phoenix slowly turned from being calm at the beginning to becoming anxious. Unable to accurately express his position with words, he eagerly pulled Tia's soft and white hand. Ignoring other people's sidelong glances and the stunned expression of the cute girl, he immediately took the student from behind the bunker into the smoke area in front.

"I'll help you adjust your position, you just shoot."

In an environment where the visual distance was less than one meter, the instructor motioned for the student to pick up her heavy rocket launcher and said:

"Just fire once and run, then continue firing based on your own feeling."

After saying that, the man immediately dragged his left hand to the muzzle and quickly adjusted the shooting angle for Tia.

"Wait for my order."

Without giving the girl any chance to respond, the commander turned and ran out of the smoke, dividing the other eight people into two groups and dispatching them to the left and right sides.

Ten seconds later...

When everyone was in place, Phoenix's voice calling Tia was heard in the team voice chat.

"Fire."

"Yes!"
