"Hostiles approaching! Twenty-two!

"Hiro and I go forward. Cover me."

Aiaimum!

"Here we go."

"Oh, shit!

After Lieutenant-Colonel Serena's back, pulling out a large sword from his waist sheath, I will jump to the battlefield.

I have two swords, large and small, in my hands. A sword, of course, is not just a metal sword. It is a high-frequency blade with a reinforced single-molecule blade, and I am not sure if it is a high-tech low-tech weapon that boasts enough sharpness and durability to compete well with the light sword of the diode.

"I turn left."

"Yes, yes!

While Major Serena waits for a large sword to penetrate the left side of the herd, I will penetrate the right side of the herd. Relatively, it is a distorted humanoid organism that consists of something like peeled red and black muscle tissue. The area that touches both hands and feet is covered with rock, and is characterized by the overall appearance of "twisting".

Ugh!

The three of them jump at me at the same time.

There is no cooperation, but they are very annoying because they look human and their movements are not human.

Using his whole body like a spring, he cuts off the rocky hand and flew like an arrow with the sword of his right hand while avoiding the whole eye. He slashes the right arm of the second body that came at him like a whip with the sword of his left hand. He shakes the sword of both hands and splits it into three parts while avoiding the rush of the third body that flew like the whole eye.

Then, in the moments that Major Serena and I have earned, the Marines use firearms such as laser rifles and laser launchers to destroy the hostiles -- tentatively, Twisted. I also stick my left dagger to the ground, pull out the laser gun that fits in the leg holster on my left thigh, and release the laser to the twisted ones. Of course, the output is kill mode.

Shit!

He breaks through the laser barrage, swings his right sword with his tongue on the jumping twisted, passes through the rush, and shoots a laser gun into his defenseless back in a row. Absolutely no carelessness or gap.

"Damage report!

"Team A, there's no damage!

Bravo Team, we're clear!

"Team C is clear!

Apparently we were able to make it through this raid without any damage. Hold the laser gun and sword in the holster and sheath respectively, and exhale in the universal mask.

"Commander, isn't it dangerous to continue like this?

"If this is the case, there will still be no problem. It's very generous."

Lieutenant-Colonel Serena looked up at the sky with her sword in her sheath.

The windswept dust prevented the naked eye from seeing the sky ahead, but Krishna floating beyond the dust and other small battleships belonging to the Imperial Space Force were displayed on the HUD of the universal mask. Small combat vessels, including Krishna, are firing intermittent lasers towards our front, and each time there was a blinking light and an explosion in front of them.

"It seems... but Commander Serena is strong."

Where Lieutenant-Colonel Serena was waving his sword, there were six truncated twisted bodies rolling. He simply slashed twisted twice as many twists as I did, and that's all I can tell you about Lieutenant-Colonel Serena's swordsmanship.

"It must be the difference in nature. My sword is a sword that comes forward and slashes it, and your sword is a sword that awaits and reaps it."

That's how Commander Serena observes me from my toes to the top of my head.

"I can't predict which is the last thing that stands between me and you when you die. I don't think I can do it unilaterally, but I don't have the vision to overwhelm you."

"Commander, the tension is too high. I'm sorry I had to slash you with the Commander."

It's too ridiculous to slash a twisted woman in half in that instant. I'm so sorry. I'll definitely run away.

"But these twisted guys... that's right."

"Yes, I'm going to analyze it from now on, but it looks very similar to the 'aggressive protozoa' that occurred in Cormatt III. Like this rocky attack arm."

That's how Lieutenant-Colonel Serena kicks the rocky part of her tip with her twisted arm rolling to her feet. This rocky part is very hard enough to withstand direct laser rifle strikes, depending on how it hits. Even before the shards of the sword used by me and Lieutenant-Colonel Serena on the boulder, they were powerless.

"But isn't it going to be a little easier and safer?"

"It's hard. If they get caught in a military RV, they'll turn into coffins."

Behind us are not only the normally equipped Marines and armored Power-Armored Armored Armored Armored Armored Forces, but also the High Mobile Reconnaissance Vehicles (RVs). RV is a vehicle with more armor and firepower than power armor. Naturally, mobility is much superior to infantry and power armor soldiers, but if they are swarmed by twisted people, there is nothing they can do. Twelve people had already been killed, along with three RVs and crew members who had gone on a power reconnaissance mission, and the search for the RVs as the spindle had been abandoned.

"It hurts when the sensors of a small ship don't work....."

The situation is further complicated by the fact that the wind-wound dust contains fine metal particles from terraforming machines, making it very difficult for sensors in areas where strong winds are blowing.

Krishna certainly marked the landing site of the suppression ship, but it appears that there was a distance and a misalignment between the points marked on the surface due to the effects of this special dust.

That's why we're caught up in this terrible environment, watching out for Twisted assaults and searching for suppression on turtle-like steps. Ha ha, shit.

"But if there were so many twisted people, it would have been an example. The nobles are dead, aren't they?

We've managed to defeat Twisted with generous proximity air support, solid equipment, and plenty of headcount fire, but he doesn't have it. I don't think it's too much if the Twisted One attacks me.

"That's troublesome, but then we'll have to take back some of his body. This will prove that Gerritz was associated with a space bandit in the Cormat system."

Lieutenant-Colonel Serena pulls his leg away from the twisted arm that was kicking him.

"Besides, it would be safe to remain in control of the suppression, and above all, if the presence of these Twisted and Cormatt III's 'offensive protozoa' were Gerritz's fault, it would be strange to have the technique of controlling them. If there is such a thing, we need to take it."

"Indeed. With that, they won't be bothered by Cormat III or this Cormat IV."

"That's what it is. Looks like your troops are ready. Let's move on."

"Eye Mom"

After Lieutenant-Colonel Serena, who starts walking ahead, the Marines march for the dusty land. I was there to follow Lieutenant-Colonel Serena.
