Chapter 1452 Getting The Artillery Guns Up

Diaz: All hostiles were eliminated at Checkpoint D, proceeding to Checkpoint E to aid Grey Bear 03

Click: I am already at Checkpoint F, moving to Checkpoint H.

Diaz: Since when did you move that fast? Don't you have to find a proper spot to hide those stuff and even need more activating those timers?

Click: I already did that while trying to find a spot. Just ignore the details and hurry to Checkpoint H.

Diaz: You just want -

Yinn: Cut the chatter. Moving to secure the primary objective.

Jin: I will bring down the ones at the back of the artillery first. You handle the front few.

Yinn: Roger that.

With that conversation, Diaz decided to make her way up based on Click's previous movement. The tactical system was able to show where her teammate had gone previously and Diaz was starting to wonder; was it so bad to use the tactical system on daily use? It was because of its controversy that the tactical system had a lot of hate and little usage but right now when this new Jin commander was using it, she was able to do more things than she previously did.

There were even recommendations from the tactical system to dial her energy output on her legs so she could move faster and she allowed her internal processors to automatically tuned once the information was given out. "I honestly do not remember it to be this helpful." Diaz thought to herself as she jumped with ease into Checkpoint E and subsequently the tactical system recommended another new route to move towards Checkpoint H. It might be because Diaz had accepted its suggestions that the tactical system started to pop up even more recommendations that were not just useful but also gave her the probability of these recommendations as well, allowing her to determine whether it was a decent decision to make.

In the meantime, Yinn coordinated her assault with Jin against the rebels guarding the artillery. The moment he took his shot killing the first mechanoid, Yinn rushed in despite the suppressive fire the rebels were shooting at her. Yinn however was able to have confidence charging in because she decided to use an extra armour plate as a makeshift shield to protect her. It was not something she had come out with until Jin told her to stick the plate on her left wrist and it started to form along with her arm.

It was then Yinn realised that this was something similar to what Tellie had experienced, Jin had used the tactical system code boost to create such an unorthodox ability for her. However, she had no idea that the tactical system could be this ...creative. Even though she had more combat field knowledge and expertise compared to the other Grey Bears who were privates, this was the first time she saw the tactical system churning out just unique abilities to aid the Mechanoids. All she remembered from the past tactical system usage were merely accuracy or speed boost effects.

Yet at this point in time, she did not care much nor wish to question these unique creations. The pentagonal armour plate allowed her to block additional weak points of hers as she pushed to shock and awe the rebels. Jin took the opportunity to take care of the last rebel at the back as well before proceeding down to the artillery position.

And as he was walking down, he made a controversial comment to himself.

"You are there, aren't you," Jin said but there was no reply back at all despite his long run towards the artillery.

Yinn: Grey Bear 01 to all Grey Bears. We have secured the primary objective. Grey Bear 02, we are relying on you to spot.

Tellie: Grey Bear 02, wilco.

The artillery guns were identified to be a series of 39 calibre howitzers. According to Yinn, it was not the latest but they should not be scoffed at as well. Its range was relatively decent and it was manageable enough to operate with minimum manpower.

Obviously there was no way Jin have any idea on how to operate the howitzer even though he seem to have a basic military knowledge foundation due to his grandfather.

But the tactical 'system' had started to show its colours as it began to give clear instructions on how to use the artillery gun. Yinn was surprised as well that her tactical system was showing her the ropes.  She had some basic artillery know hows installed within her brain but it was a general set of knowledge and different guns had their own knick knacks to take care of.

"Bearings received and set," Yinn said as she had already set the artillery gun to aim towards the church once Tellie gave them their coordinates but Jin did not allow the firing.

He understood that he was wasting precious time to make sure that Diaz and Click complete their role but it was vital that they were not spotted as to plant explosives but to be perceived as a 'room clearing' procedure.

"All done!" Click said as she planted the very last explosive needed for the room and Diaz managed to cover her six while doing so as well.

"Multiple hostiles encroaching to your position." Tellie reported stating that they were moving slowly on purpose to ensure that they had the numerical advantage to deal with the threat.

"Still no villagers on sight?" Jin worried for the worst. He could only hope that they were still alive, being held on hostage or imprisoned at the church but Tellie did hint that most religious buildings were also repurposed as bomb shelters for such events because of all the fighting that happened all around their world. (Somehow that reminded Jin of a certain historical stealth game where churches have all those troublesome tunnels.)

"No. None seen." Tellie reported while Diaz and Click rushed to where the guns were. Even though the Grey Bear Squad do not have the manpower, Jin and Yinn were still able to manually move the artillery guns to the set coordinates while waiting for Diaz and Click to protect them. This way, they could still capable of one volley worth of artillery before just focusing on one particular gun.
