Chapter 78: The WAAAGH! (II)
I ignored the corpse of the Orks I had just killed and focused my fire toward the next one. Our team arrives a few hundred meters from the team that has been surrounded, and we need to run toward them. I was over to fly all of us there, but Yuni said that we did not want to alert the anti-air raid of the Orks.
We need the element of surprise, and flying will make that void.
"Orks are neva beaten 'n battle… we kan always kome back for annuver go."
"No, you are not."
I turn the orks under me into ashes before charging at other Orks that are coming at us. I fire my rifle, and it takes ten bullets to take down the Orks. Ten! I know that I need to save as much reserve as I can, but those Orks are tough to kill without the help of my demonic energy.
I look to the side and see that Rin and Sakura are protecting each other using their magic. At the same time, Illya sits on Berserker's shoulder while firing her rifle. As for Shirou, he uses a combination of both pistol and short sword. On the other hand, Medea floating not too high above the ground to give a supporting spell with Hermione on her side. They are the ones that block a stray bullet by creating a wall made of earth.
While they cannot block the bullet with a barrier that is made from pure energy, they can use their demonic energy to conjure an earth wall. Those walls can stop or at least slow down and change the direction of the bullet.
I look to the sky when I hear something coming from the sky.
"Deffkopta!"
I look at the dying Ork smirking and say his last word before he dies with a bloodthirsty grin on his face. I have a bad feeling about this but decide to keep fighting as we arrive at the group that we need to rescue inside a relatively small fortified bunker.
After waiting for a few seconds, the bunker door opens up, and we walk inside the bunker.
I can see five heavily wounded people and two people with fewer injuries.
"Yuni! I'm glad you have arrived."
"Agrad. We need to hurry up. I already hear the sound of a squadron of Deffkopta."
"Deffkopta? Already? Tch. It looks like the backstabber squad did not make it."
"Or they did not hit all of the manufacturer bases. Just be glad that the Orks Spacecraft is busy fighting our fleet."
"Aye. Anyway, is there any healer in your team?"
I walk forward and say.
"I'm a healer."
"Good. I will leave my men in your hands. Also, please hurry up. We did not want to be caught unguarded by the squadron of Deffkopta."
I nodded my head and looked at Sakura, Medea, Hermione, and Illya, who each walked toward the injured people. I walk toward a man in his early twenty before beginning to heal him. After a few seconds, I nodded my head before saying.
"You are healed. Sadly, I cannot attach or regenerate your arm."
"Y-You are Riser Phenex… aren't you? Give your phoenix's tears."
"No."
"What?!? We are a comrade here! Give one of your tears!"
"No."
Before he could grab my clothes, the man that talks with Yuni (I guess he is their leader) says,
"Stop it. If he did not want to give you his tears, you should not force him. We are comrade, but he did not owe you anything."
I can see the man in front of me look at me with a hateful expression but decide to obey his team leader. I nodded my head once again and walked away from him.
"Good, now we need to…."
Before Agrad finished his word, the buzzing noises got louder before suddenly an explosion happened above us.
"Dammit! The Deffkopta is here!"
I look out the window and see a one-person helicopter flying above all of us, and the one that is driving it is the Orks. I can see five of them bombarding this bunker and the area around it.
"We should get out of here!"
"Agreed. Riser, I need you and your team to watch our back! I will dig the ground. We will take the underground route, and I need you to cover our tracks."
I nodded my head before saying.
"What about oxygen?"
I still need it, after all.
"Your power armor has already taken care of it. Do you think this planet has oxygen?"
Without waiting for any more questions, Yuni led us into the underground room and then stabbed her staff on the ground before suddenly a tunnel appeared in front of us. After creating a tunnel, she walks inside the tunnel, followed by the other.
Before I could close the tunnel, Medea already did that for me while Hermione created ten balls of light to illuminate the tunnel. I thank Medea and walk toward Yuni before saying.
"Why can't we use teleportation? I thought it would be faster than running around."
"No. Teleportation in this universe has different laws than the other universe. A teleportation spell will create a bridge through Immaterium, also known as the realm of chaos or warps. We did not want to gather the attention of the Chaos Gods while fighting against the Orks."
"The company cannot fight the Chaos God?"
One of the injured men in front of me said that out loud.
"No. We can, but the cost is also high. The company is not an Omni being like your patron. The company is a trader. We can ask the patrons to help defend the company, but they only do it when they are certain that the company will get destroyed if they do not interfere. They will not move if the company can still solve the problem. This is the reason why there is an emergency quest."
I nodded my head. I guess that makes sense. We did not go to war against the Orks if the patron can wipe their race from the universe if they want to, but because the company can handle this problem, they will not help us.
"This is the reason why the oversight needed dozens of minutes to create a portal for us."
"Speaking of the portal, how long do we need to run to reach the delivery point?"
Agrad decides to interrupt the conversation before it can become an explanation that he already knows.
"Ten kilometers to the northeast. I will send the coordination to your wristband."
After saying that, a hologram of a map appeared in front of me. I can see a dot blinking in the distance. I guess that is the delivery point they are talking about.
"I see…."
Before Agrad could finish his word, all of us stopped in our tracks when we saw a drill appear in front of us.
"Driller!"
Yuni shouted and closed the tunnel in front of her and created another tunnel to her left. Without any notice, suddenly, all of us begin to float in the air and begin to fly, following Yuni from behind as she continues to dig the tunnel in front of her at high speed.
I help Medea in the back by hardening the rock behind us. However, as we fly through the tunnel, another driller appears from our side, and ten Orks pour out from the driller and begin firing their guns.
I gritted my teeth as I felt ten bullets dug deep into my flesh, but I ignored it and fired up a flamethrower at the Orks. I can see the Orks still firing up his guns even while burned alive. After a few seconds and taking another three bullets to my chest, the three Orks in front of me died.
I look around and see Hermione and Medea are wounded from the bullet as well, but it looks like they are not as bad as me, who took thirteen bullets. I see them take out the bullet from their body and heal the wound.
"Tch, it looks like we cannot stay here. I already heard another three Drillers from the left. We need to go above, and we cannot fight in this narrow space. Get ready!"
I nodded my head and decided to give my gun toward the team that we rescued as I saw they did not have any guns. It looks like our original plan of saving our reserve for the worst is already abandoned as we encounter the worst.
"Up!"
A few seconds later, we arrive on the surface, and I can see angry Orks looking at us with their guns in hand. Yuni looked around before saying.
"I hate the Orks."
