Rebuild World

262 Bets to pile up

Pamela, who is back at Lyons Tail's facility, is paling in front of Chloe, who was back earlier.

Chloe was listening quietly to Pamela's report. Chloe's attitude, which neither blamed nor cared for her faults, was making Pamela's complexion even worse.

After hearing Pamela's report and apology without even a gavel, Chloe opens her mouth in a non-grumpy manner.

"I mean, you misjudged his strength, but does that cover your suggestion that we can kill him enough?

Pamela's suggestion that Akira could be killed without a problem was also heavily influenced by Chloe's criterion of action at the Mihazono Street site. Assuming Pamela said she would encounter the opposite in return, Chloe would not have tried to meet Akira in the first place. Chloe's actions also included the late part of her belief in the words of her neighbor.

There is no reprimand for Chloe's gaze at Pamela. But Pamela had it the other way around. Because if you decide you're incompetent and you're losing so much interest in yourself that it's not even worth scolding, you'll just be truncated later.

That's why I dare to answer (ah) well with a serious look.

"No. That I didn't rush the battle and try to kill him over time. And the decision that if you could have escaped on a motorcycle, you would have already escaped. He just punched the gap. That in itself is a lapse, but I'm not going to withdraw your decision that you can kill him."

…… Yes. "

Chloe just answered that and shut up again.

Pamela stiffens her face with tension. Whether he was forgiven or cut off, Pamela does not attach that judgment, and he keeps waiting while suppressing the Lord's judgment in his chest.

"Fair enough. Stand back, you. Raid him, respond to his raids, and be prepared to respond adequately. I'll give you additional instructions later."

"I'm scared."

Pamela exhaled a small relief (mostly) that at least her retreat should have been treated as pending. And courteously, I walked out of the room with Lattice.

Chloe whines when she's alone.

"Couldn't I kill you..."

If you could have killed him, that's fine. But if you fail, pile it up on the stakes as a strange currency. Chloe deepens her thoughts in that direction.

You can't just win a bet. Chloe needed a big win. We have to rewrite all the lapses into later fabric stones, so we can increase the multiplier of the bet as much as possible, and replace it with a big playing field involving everything, and win on top of that. Keep thinking about the method where the hoop (but) abandoned its own weight with the thought of coming off, and keep thinking for further big wins.

At that time, Chloe's information terminal received a notification. Upon confirmation, it was from the security department of Lyons Tail, a reminder that outsiders could see a move trying to locate Chloe.

Chloe laughed as cruelly (horribly) and lusciously as she found what she was looking for as she went further through the information.

Ask Pamela with a harsh face as Lattice progresses through the facility.

"So how far should I really take what I just told you?

Pamela points her tight attitude at Lattice.

"Are you telling me I made a false report to your daughter?

Depending on your response, you can't just be a person. Lattice didn't break his attitude when he was intimidated by Pamela, who just said so.

"I won't say that. However, the amplitude of the reported contents is too large. That's all you know, right?

Pamela returned the silence of affirmation by distorting her face.

"I said I had no intention of withdrawing my decision that I could kill that hunter. The next time I could kill her, I told the lady I was fine. But that's okay, because you can afford to kill next time, or you can stab me but kill me next time, and I haven't told you anything about the feeling around it. The lady was not pursued in detail, but you know as much as you did not intentionally speak. I'll ask you on top of that. If we get to the bottom of this, we can kill next time at our leisure, so it's okay, but what do you say?

"Oh, that's..."

Pamela stopped talking there. Lattice exhales in an eloquent response in that sense.

"Calm down a little. I'm with you that the retreat sucks. As far as the report goes, I could have killed that hunter if I had accompanied him. I mean, you disobeyed the lady's instructions, and I failed to kill that hunter, too. I'm with you when you're banished."

Depending on the way you perceive it, it also sounds disgusting that you're on the road because of what you failed to do, but Pamela soon found out that Lattice's attitude is about caring for Pamela, and that it's her intention not to feel too much because she's in the same position. So Pamela calms down a little too.

"... I'm sorry"

"Good. That happens sometimes. And they're killing each other's men. I can't help but be frustrated."

Latis, who laughed like he didn't care, puts his expression back into something serious there.

"In order not to make the deaths of our men meaningless, we have to move on. I can't fail next. Let's get back to it. We misjudged the hunter's strength, but how strong was it? As far as checking on the Hunter Office site, his Hunter Rank is 55. As there was a slight error between Hunter Rank and Strength, I took a slight margin (just in case) and thought of it as 56, even higher, equivalent to Rank 57. I stepped on it that if I had that much strength, I could kill it, and I failed. How strong do you see that hunter? You fought, though you got away with it, didn't you?

Answer after Pamela has seriously bothered you.

"… in some cases, equal to sixty"

"Sixty!? That's it!

Lattice revealed her surprise at an unexpected number from a colleague.

Hunter Rank does not indicate Hunter's ability to fight, but it serves as a guide for judging general power. And the higher the rank hunter, the less the difference between the power inferred from the rank and the actual power. That's because the higher the rank, the harder it will be to improve the rank by the next rank, and as a result, even hunters of the same rank will have wider power differences.

On top of that, we can only call it an anomaly anymore, such as the fact that Hunter Rank and Strength are divergent (and high) enough to correspond to Rank Difference 5. That's why Lattice's surprise was huge. Pamela answers with a serious face as Lattice unconsciously turns her gaze to ask the truth and falsehood.

"Our men are not incompetent. You must have fought for me with all your dying power. After repelling it before I arrived, I succeeded in escaping even if I made a mistake. Rank 60 is reasonable enough."

"... you sure do. And next time, why don't we start the fight after this one is surrounded? You were right to ask your daughter to authorize the use of restricted weapons."

The door opens in front of the Lattices who arrived at the facility's warehouse. There was a powerful enough weapon to kill the Hunter Rank 60.

Instructions fly from Chloe as Lattice and Pamela prepare for their respective armaments. The Lattices, who confirmed its contents, looked at each other with a surprising look.

Akira, who motorcycled down a roadless path in the wilderness, arrived near the ruins of the former Higalaka residential district. I was a little surprised to see the sight that was different from when I first arrived, but soon I tried to go for the Lyons Tail facility, but I could stop it by Alpha.

"Akira, the place you're going to board is a corporate facility. They should have more defensive weapons than they have built in the wilderness. So let's stop boarding from the front.

'Okay. But what are we gonna do? Shooting AF objective cannons from a distance? That bullet's expensive, so there's not that much remnants, and I don't think it's possible to shoot him appropriately at the facility and hope Chloe dies accidentally, okay?

The only information I got from Viola is that Chloe is likely in the facility, and it's unclear where she is in that rather large facility or if she's really there in the first place. And killing Chloe doesn't mean the money goes in, so Akira's savings continue to decrease by as much as the cost of ammunition. Akira, who regained a sense of calm when her connection to Alpha returned, wanted to avoid scattering without thinking about the cost of ammunition later.

At a time when we are in the outrage of raiding Lyons Tail's facilities, it is not already a question of what the cost of ammunition is. But Akira didn't care about you.

As an Alpha, I almost wanted the area to be concerned, but I was cooperating as a means of second-best goodwill because I believe that pointing that out threatens to ruin my relationship with Akira.

'Get off the bike and use the camo feature on foot to break in. So if you find Chloe, kill her and get out. "

"Camo? Wouldn't they see us through?

Speaking of which, along with the feeling that it had that kind of function, the question arose of whether the opponent was also possible because he had seen through the opponent's camouflage during the battle as well. And I also came up with the idea that if I were to find it, I might as well ride in on a motorcycle.

Alpha wipes that away with a confident smile.

"I'll be there for you. It's all right."

'Right. Okay.'

Alpha relieved herself (mostly) when she saw Akira, who had stepped off the motorcycle in earnest. As for Akira, if she kills Chloe, that's fine, and she shouldn't be hostile to Lyons Tail itself. Then even if they see through the camouflage, they don't even have to expose that the intruder is Akira. I have absolutely no problem maintaining that degree of camo as long as I have my own support. And after you assassinate Chloe, you just have to get Akira to push through the unknown. That would be better than getting into the facility from the front. It would be. That's what I was suggesting.

But the proposal was wasted.

Large armoured vehicles run out of Lyons Tail facilities with momentum. And try to run straight through the area of the former site and out into the wilderness. Receiving a wide-area general-purpose communication that had originated from that vehicle, Akira began to follow the vehicle at full speed as she quickly rode the bike.

Sometimes when a vehicle carrying a company executive or other dignitary runs in the wilderness, it runs while communicating the matter to the surrounding area by means of a wide-area general purpose communication. Doing poorly threatens to call monsters, but naturally the monster degree is a story in an armed vehicle that can be crushed without any problems.

The transmission is directed at humans, such as hunters in the wilderness, and is basically a warning. If you don't want to be treated as a suspicious person attacking a dignitary, you are advised to distance yourself from the vehicle. It is also a pre-treatment to attack the suspect without warning because the advance notice has been given.

And the notice that had been sent out by the vehicle was that Chloe, affiliated with the Eastern District III branch of Lyons Tail, was aboard.

This ruined Alpha's idea of killing Chloe with an assassination rather than a push from the front and trying to contain the extra noise. The effect of camouflage will also fade during the high-speed journey on the motorcycle, and it is definitely exposed that the assassin is Akira. In addition, there was no doubt that he was already blowing away from Akira, such as the will to kill him while hiding from his opponent.

Alpha gives instructions for the next good by showing his face.

"Akira! Now it's time to calm down!

'I know!...!?

Akira's face was distorted. The rear door of a large armoured vehicle opened and Chloe showed up. Chloe's also recognized Akira, waving gently to Akira with an extra smile on her face.

Akira's face is filled with killing intentions at once. Dos, a black inner leaks. Stares at the enemy with both eyes. Activate the bike's AF objective cannon with that emotion, aim it, and let the cannon fill with energy from the bike's energy tank.

"Alpha! Target correction and output adjustment, please!

'I told you to calm down!? Absolutely. All right!

As soon as the energy was filled to its maximum and the power was raised to its limit, a precision pole (stiff) whole blow with Alpha's aiming correction was fired from the cannon. A high-output ray that narrows the effect range as far as AF objective gun performance allows hits the target while scorching through (or scratching) the ambient atmosphere.

At the same time, however, Chloe's vehicle had taken a defensive stance. The Force Field Shield Generator, a force field barrier mounted on a robust armoured vehicle for VIP transportation, deploys countless force field barriers to block radiation. Those force field barriers, Forcefield Shields, were diagonally positioned to slightly bend the rays, and even had the effect of diffusing the rays to weaken the power.

As a result, the reflected rays became light waves and swallowed the perimeter of the vehicle. But the power had declined dramatically for as long as it had spread.

The motorcycle temporarily stopped accelerating due to the effect of turning the output to the cannon, and the posture maintenance function was weakened.

Akira looks at an armored vehicle with splashed shock-converted light as she recapitulates the bike as it tilts its body to hang the brakes. At the end of his gaze, Chloe, who was not even bruised, shook her neck slightly to the side while enjoying herself toward Akira.

Akira's expression turns into something more vicious reflecting her inner self, and her gaze, with the hoop (but) off, pierces Chloe. But Chloe laughed at the hoop, which was also off, and went away. And he turns his back on Akira and disappears into the back of the car, waving like a little fool. At the same time, the rear door of the vehicle began to close and remained firmly closed.

Akira looks away at the vehicle with a caged eye as she crosses (and again) onto the motorcycle once stopped.

'... Alpha. What was wrong with that one?

Alpha dared (ah) point her serious and serious face at Akira in order to keep Akira as calm as she could.

'There's nothing particularly wrong with that. Strong enough, the gear over there was just high performance. Consider gathering that information and calm down next time you live. It's less likely you could kill her for lack of calm.'

…… Copy that.

Akira exhales loudly. And we accelerated the bike with momentum again.

Pamela advances to Chloe with a distorted (boiled) grin in the car.

"Lady! Why are you doing such a dangerous imitation?!? Even though the vehicle's defenses are powerful, we are here in case! Don't imitate yourself in a meaningless way!

But Chloe didn't give a shit about Pamela's prophecy.

"It makes sense, doesn't it? If you don't show him exactly what I look like and make sure this car thinks I'm in it, he'll be afraid to head toward the facility with suspicion of the contents just for a wide area generic communications notice, right? Prevent it."

You should stay in the facility if you're simply going to intercept Akira. If you're moving within the walls of Kugamayama City in search of safety, you don't have to let Akira know where you are. Pamela, who thought so, was confused without knowing Chloe's intentions. But now I want to avoid further loss, so I can't stop asking (for) details because I can't stop being incompetent.

"Though I thought I needed to wander around the wilderness temporarily to lure him out, I didn't know I was that close anymore. It's a big deal. I wonder if Pamela has any choice?

Pamela also knew that her own rating would drop even further when she replied affirmatively. Return a silent, serious look and stop to show your will not to screw up next time.

Chloe laughed somewhat satisfactorily before turning her gaze to Lattice in the back of the vehicle.

"Lattice, go."

"I'm scared."

Lattice takes off her butler clothes quickly with exceptional skill. Underneath it he was wearing a reinforced inner for heavy reinforcement taking. The surrounding machine then moves out and attaches heavy reinforced clothing to the Lattice with multiple arms. Lattice's body is covered so that each part of the small, man-made weapon, once disassembled, is reassembled.

Additional armaments will be added. Flight devices, missile pods, sabels, large guns connected by large magazines and magazine belts, etc. were securely attached to heavy reinforced clothing.

Wear it, not get into a man-made weapon. The heavy-duty fortified garment embodying its design philosophy had a combat capability comparable to that of a powerful man-made weapon, as long as the hassle of wearing it was negligible.

The ceiling of the vehicle opens. It makes a driving noise because the flying device of the heavy reinforced clothing flies outside the vehicle. Force field barriers were deployed around the Lattice to prevent scratched (or disturbed) air from causing damage outside the vehicle due to its propulsion. Lattice greets Chloe over Forcefield Shield, a force field barrier that reacts to the slight energy emitted from heavy-duty reinforced clothing and looks like glass with emitted impact converted light.

"Okay, I'll go and come. We will definitely deliver satisfactory results to your daughter."

Then Chloe gives instructions in a mild tone.

"Oh, if that means a satisfactory outcome, I'll place an order on the way to fight. Fight flashy."

"Flashy, is it?

"That's right. It's also important to kill him, but if the way he fights becomes plain because of it, give priority to those who fight flashy. If you couldn't kill him because of what you fought so flashly, there's no choice."

"Ma'am, what is that..."

Chloe's intentions were unknown and Lattice, who overheard him, stopped the words. Chloe turned off her smile and stared at Lattice with eyes that peeked to the bottom of her opponent's mind, and eyes that peeked at her own madness, giving her signs and qualities specific to the founder clan.

"Lattice. Also, you disobey my instructions?

A barometric Lattice shelves all questions.

"Yes, no, that never happens. I'm in awe. Priority is given to fighting flashy."

"Go."

"Ha!"

Lattice flew out of the car with momentum.

"Pamela, you keep an eye on the perimeter and intercept him if he gets too close to the car"

"Oh, my God."

Even Pamela doesn't know Chloe's intentions. However, there is no problem in understanding the instructions themselves, and the questions are shelved and immediately moved as instructed. Those in maid clothes standing side by side in the car took their weapons according to Pamela's instructions and, in a agile motion, stepped out of the rooftop and placed on alert and interception.

Chloe sits in the chair provided and smiles. The condition seemed to be enjoying things as if they were going according to my assumptions.

Akira, who accelerates the bike and follows Chloe's vehicle, notices Lattice jumping out of the vehicle.

A human weapon? No, you're not. Heavy reinforced clothing? It's been a long time. "

Alpha stabs a nail (knife) with a serious face.

"Don't think of it like the heavy-duty fortified clothes you fought before. Think of it as something fundamentally different. '

'I know. Even the guys who wore what looked like normal clothes like made-up clothes were that strong. If it's from the looks of it, it must be exceptionally strong. Do you want to use an AF objective cannon?

"AF objective guns are low on ammunition, so I want to save as much as I can for destroying vehicles. First with a LEO compound gun. '

Copy that.

Six LEO compound guns, including a spare one, had already been reduced to three, one on Akira's right hand side and the remaining two on the motorcycle's arm-style seat.

Energy is supplied from the motorcycle's high-capacity energy tank to the LEO composite gun via Akira's fortified clothing, and the energy charge to the loaded C ammunition (charge valet) is completed in a small amount of time. As a result, C-bullets (charge valets) were capable of being fired with maximum force. Similar features are available for arm-style gun seats.

'Leave the fine aiming to me, Akira, and keep the burden on her brain under control. Even with my support, the continuous use of somatosensory time compression and real-world resolution manipulation is overloaded. If necessary, polish the feeling you use when you're here. Here we go!'

'Oh!'

Akira points the LEO compound gun at Lattice. Immediately a target correction was entered, and with a ray of unusual precision, a C-bullet of maximum power (charge barret) was fired at the fastest continuous firing setting.

Lattice was capturing Akira's position at the time she jumped out of the vehicle. Working with the vehicle's enemy equipment, he was also capturing Akira moving at high speeds on his own information-gathering equipment, completing the pre-lock-on phase with an advanced aiming control system.

Later, I also thought I could kill just by sniping with the large gun on board, but when I finish the fight with that one shot, I also think it would go against Chloe's instructions to fight flashly, and I choose another means of attack.

"It's the lady's instructions. Flashy scatter."

Small missiles are simultaneously ejected from the missile pods of heavy-duty reinforced clothing. After each of those missiles ran through the universe in a different orbit, they bent the orbit to strike Akira from all directions. And when you reach a certain distance from the target, the surface of the warhead cracks and crushes. At the next moment, a large number of small missiles popped out of its interior.

The number of child missiles built in by cluster missiles manufactured using the technique of extended magazine warehouses was out of normal orbit, with a significant difference from the number that could be inferred from the appearance. The warhead splits and splits not into child missiles, but spreads into the air as if it had grown, filling the universe and killing Akira from all directions.

At the next moment, the missiles exploded simultaneously. Each explosion merges and becomes such a big explosion that it could erase everything that exists in the surrounding space rather than the goal. The atmosphere extruded by the blast had become a storm, flashly blowing debris (bristles) rolling on the ground, etc.

A moment late, the bullet Akira fires lands on Lattice. There was no madness in targeting and all bullets were hit directly. But the Lattice, protected by the strong force field armor Forcefield Armor of heavy reinforced clothing, hasn't even suffered looting or scratches. It only consumed a little more energy.

"The last foot scratch. Excellent at scratching feet. I'm also convinced that Hunter Rank 60 is worth of strength."

Lattice, while showing such mild admiration, decided he had killed him in this attack. The concentration of colorless fog is temporarily elevated by the extrusion and compression of the atmosphere due to the impact of the excess explosion, and the high concentration part is like a clear membrane, enveloping blast flames and smoke. Its exterior was done with a storm, but its interior had turned a flame that had lost its escape into a wild hell.

Later, after the membrane disappears and the smoke in the contents is dispersed, you can look for even the bike fragments and then report them to Chloe. If we don't find it, Akira will disappear with dust. Lattice thought so and was sure of the victory.

But that certainty overshadows. A giant light blade cleaves the membrane from the inside and ejects the flame inside. Akira jumped out on the bike in the momentum.

"What!?

Lattice's expression stained with amazement.

To the inevitable quantity of small missiles looming as division multiplied, Alpha immediately moved on to the next good deed. While giving Akira instructions for this purpose, he dares (ah) roll the bike over with momentum. And he spun both wheels at once with them sideways in the air for a moment.

The body rotates violently like a lateral solo. At the same time, the aerial driving function of the tyre is operated at the maximum output, and the invisible scaffolding in the air is repeatedly purified with a scaffolding purification function that applies the force field armor Force Field Armor function.

At the same time Akira pulled out a blade of liquid metal, which is an arm for motorcycles. A large amount of liquid metal is ejected at the same time as the pattern (s) are pulled out of the blade generator. Liquid metal is usually a thin, thin blade, but alpha manipulation results in a thin, wide membrane-like shape. Akira shook it out as the motorcycle spun.

The shaken momentum causes the film of liquid metal to tear and change like a distorted (snoring) silver cloth. Further, it spreads around the bike and swirls. And at the moment it spread wide enough in an instant, it hardened strongly with force field armor, Forcefield Armor.

At the next moment, the explosion of the missile that was going to kill swallowed Akira and the others. But Akira and the others survived the impact of the explosion by preventing it with multiple generated invisible scaffolding walls and a cloth of liquid metal that spread to protect the motorcycle.

I can't stand it if it simply prevents an explosion. However, it is theoretically possible if the intensively calculated and arranged walls and cloths only shift, offset and weaken the directivity of the explosion. And Alpha had finished calculating an enormous amount of calculations that strayed from the regular orbit: in the meagre time leading up to the explosion, countless explosions would closely calculate all the combined complex effects.

Still, the blast wraps Akira. But it managed to survive with the motorcycle's deployed force field armor Force Field Armor feature and fortified clothing defense. The majority of the liquid metal was then detached from the pattern (s) and the blade was made with a small amount of remaining liquid metal, tearing apart the colourless fog membrane. And accelerate out of the membrane on a motorcycle all at once.

Akira jumped out of the membrane in momentum, accelerating further under the burst flame that erupted on her back. When the membrane collapsed and disappeared momentarily, it spread to the surrounding area as if the burst flame, which had remained inside the membrane, had exploded again.

Akira, who managed to get out of the dead, also caused the boulder to cramp her face that she was about to die.

"It was dangerous! What the hell is that?

Alpha is also pointing a rugged face at Akira. It is also to convey the harsh situation to Akira (to), but more than that, it was to make Akira weigh herself by indicating that she was a strong enough enemy to make her expression so harsh. In addition, even words push precautions.

'Looks like you're using some pretty powerful heavy-duty reinforced clothing. If you're asking to escort an intercity transport vehicle, it's strong enough to be positioned near the lead vehicle.'

"That's it!... No, you do look that strong. I'm curious as to why you didn't use it on that occasion..., oh, because you kept your bargaining physique for once then '

Armed forces were kept in check (to keep the negotiation in shape). If I wanted to kill him from the beginning, I would have used it. When Akira is convinced to think so, she mocks herself that it was in a way like surviving thanks to the untouchability of her enemies.

'Well, that's why I didn't have to die. Was there any minimum luck with that?'

"Akira, would you have fought more seriously if you had used that little luck to restore your connection to me? I would still be dead without my support. If you think you're unlucky, make sure you don't miss the effort to stay connected so you can offset that bad luck with my support '

'I know. I'm sorry. I'm reflecting.'

Akira apologized with a bitter smile as Alpha was in a good mood.

In the meantime, the bike had accelerated as well. Akira switches her mind and tightens her expression.

"So, how do you take it down?

'First I'll ignore that one and see if I can destroy the vehicle. I'd love to try an AF objective cannon at close range or a blade at close range. If you are approaching a vehicle, it will be harder to make an attack that involves the vehicle. Let's go. "

Copy that!

The bike keeps accelerating towards the vehicle. Akira rushed through the wilderness vigorously, grinding its expression cold and clear, not turning the killing intent into a fuel that would hate to burn (ku) bei, but splitting it into elements that would maintain a bottom-cold coolness.
