Chapter 398: Can’t get left behind! [1/2]
[The Seven Sirens have finally joined the battle.]
This one sentence spurred so many emotions in my body. Like a drug, a mixture of pleasure, excitement, and longing flowed through my veins. All the tension, anxiety and fear melted away like snow in the summer.
The Seven Sirens.
A group of women who were very different and yet cut from the same cloth.
In the short time I have known them, they have given me many things.
Trust. Peace. Love.
They have been the refuge my heart has long sought. They were the strength that kept me going. And most of all, they were the blades that chose me as their master.
Yes, the Sirens were not flowers in a garden. Though they looked like angels, they were in reality monsters. Ones capable of chaos and destruction. And they were dedicated to one thing.
My absolute victory.
Believing that I had to prepare the stage for them, I decided to scout the landing zone. This would be the place where they would arrive, so I should minimize the resistance they would encounter.
"[Eagle Eye]. {Imaging} - X-Ray."
Using my ability to see through walls, I peered into the landing zone where Savior had set up their camp.
Aside from the Wraiths being used as scouts and mules, there were others running around like workers.
There was a small stage where Dominic Maegester, the Machiavelli, and Robert Acwellan were standing. The moment I saw them, they both turned to me. Dominic was smiling disgustingly as he spoke.
And even though I couldn't hear him from this distance. I could lip-read what he said. Your next chapter is on M V L
"Found you."
I didn't know if he was trying to intimidate me, but I just ignored him and stared at the Slayer. He wore a helmet and said nothing. But then he manifested a polearm on his shoulder and walked off the stage.
His eyes, somehow glowing in the darkness, stared at me. Like a man possessed, it was as if nothing else mattered to him.
Seeing the man who started it all, I clenched my jaw.
My fists tightened as the fighting spirit within me began to rise.
Finally... Finally, I had the chance to kill this fucking bastard. And unlike before, I would fight as an equal.
{ALERT: THE BAN ON THE SEVEN SIRENS FOR ZONE 1121-1 HAS BEEN LIFTED.}
The moment those words rang out, a large army of monsters corpses suddenly rose from the ground. And it wasn't just zombies, I could see rank E giants and even a cyclops.
"How many corpses have these bastards brought with them?"
Then I noticed a group of reapers facing the landing zones. They suddenly manifesting large black spears in the air. A bunch of other reapers then started pouring souls into them.
"FUCK! The girls will be in danger if those things hit them!"
A moment later, a single skybeam for my girls finally arrived. The entire surroundings tensed as a figure formed under the blinding light.
The zombies all began to rush towards the light as Savior sent three of the black spears towards my incoming reinforcements.
"NOOOO!!!! {PORTAL}!"
Even with {Block} I wasn't sure if the girls could stop the black spears! I had to do something. Despite the danger of jumping into enemy territory, I created a subspace doorway and ran towards it.
[My love, you worry too much. Trust me, for I am your shield.]
I stopped just before entering and looked in horror at the landing zone. What I saw was something I wasn't prepared for.
A single figure emerged from the skybeam. Even without her flesh showing, her bright red hair danced like wildfire. Standing at an impressive height, the Siren was an imposing presence.
Three seven-foot black spears raced to impale her form, which had not yet fully materialized. Yet she looked unperturbed. Joyful, even.
Without concern, or even an ounce of fear, her lips formed a dazzling smile as she spoke.
"{Shelter}."
Suddenly, a semi-transparent wall of white light manifested beside her. All the spears slammed into the wall but failed to pierce it. Liv finally appeared in all her glory as she raised her hand.
"{Accept}."
A portal appeared behind her, and large black vehicles emerged. Obviously, it was Alfonso, but it wasn't what I expected. The vehicle was the same, but fundamentally different.
For one, there were three of them.
The horde of undead running towards Liv suddenly turned into bloody zombie legos. Things happened so fast that the Saviors began to panic.
[Limitless. Alfonso now pilots the three Ripsaw M5 UGVs]
"The what?"
Being stupid as hell, more and more zombies continued to charge towards Liv. Only to imitate fireworks as they were vaporized in real time. The M5s slowly came out of the portal and continued to rain freedom on the undead.
"Those guns are fucking huge!"
[According to their spec sheets, they are called the Protector Medium-Caliber Turret-30. It has a 30mm Bushmaster cannon and a 7.62mm M240 machine gun.] Exa explained.
"30mm? 30 fucking millimeters?"
You have to understand that a .50 BMG NATO round, which was capable of turning people into popcorn, was only 12.7mm. And the M5s were rocking 30mm Bushmasters.
Just then, the voice of my favorite South American came to my ears.
[Honey, it's too soon to be surprised. Liv is not the only one who got an upgrade. Sabel, Henry, show your father what you can do.]
[Sabel | Henry: Yes mother.]
An army of MAARs followed. There were over twenty of them, and more were pouring in. Naturally, they laid down a barrage of 5.56 rounds and 40mm grenades that wiped out those around Liv.
Savior's Reapers were unable to get close and in fact began to retreat as Bella's soulless army arrived. As if that were not enough, another portal opened in the sky and a swarm of black drones flew out.
When I saw the drones, they looked familiar.
"Mrs. Code, am I seeing right? Those are all Switchblades, right? And there are over 40 of them!"
The Switchblades all fell like meteors, blowing apart the undead mobs. Some of them turned toward the reapers, who began to run for their lives.
Needless to say, the combined power of the machines pushed back the undead horde. Just then, six figures arrived, all of them incredibly sexy.
One of them came out with pink hair in a long braid. She had the curves of a porn star and pushed her glasses up.
Bella originally had red hair, but now it was a lighter shade of pink. Despite the distance, she looked straight at me and continued to speak.
[Witness our commitment, Mr. Code. Pamper us later as a reward. We still have an army to slaughter. By the way, you might want to close your eyes.]
"Huh?"
At that moment, I heard Jasmine's voice.
"{Flash}."
Then, for no reason or rhyme, a bright light exploded outward. The source was my black-skinned lover who just arrived. It was so blinding that even after I closed my eyes, all I could see was white.
In the midst of the eruption of blinding light, I heard a familiar voice. One I had also missed.
"IN THE NAME OF LIMITLESS! SEVEN SIRENS ANNIHILATE THE SAVIORS! OPEN COMBAT!"
Even with my eyes still usable, I felt my girls all begin to attack the remaining Phantoms. The bodies that Dominic wanted to use as cannon fodder were being turned into aerosol by Bella's army in real time.
"{Regen}. I can't get left behind! [Inventory] M1014."
Inspired by the grace and ferocity of my lovers, I left the stairwell. My heart was filled with the support of the Sirens. If I had originally felt uneasy about the 25 Phantoms, now I felt like we were bullying them.
I quickly made my way down to the edge of the fort. Because of the {Flash}, I could no longer use the {Portal} to jump to their location. So, I had to run.
Somehow I didn't encounter any zombies along the way. When I left the fort walls, I understood why.
"HAHAHAHA! Robyn! Do it again!"
"Do the Harry you nut job! I am busy! FIRE IN YOUR HOLE!"
"Oh, come on! You're no fun!"
"Jo-san, please calm yourself…"
