Chapter 111: Squirrel Squad: Infiltrating The Forest

Back to Lia’s side.

At 21:45.

Lia was left alone in the room because Lavendina was taking Gabrela back to school. She sat solemnly.

"We returned to Januar’s hotel to make preparations," Wuxia said.

"We launched the attack at 18:37"

"In the forest, we began formulating a strategy after Pitung successfully detected the enemy."

Flashback again.

At 19:12.

In the quiet and dark forest, the members of the Squirrel Squad were seen wearing black tactical suits, navigation bracelets on their right wrists, black jump boots, and earpieces.

The 10 members began strategizing. About 15 meters away from them, 10 people were watching their surroundings, accompanied by 15 Squirrelbots, which resembled squirrels and could stand on two legs. Tiko was still tied up, and Yinyin was seen sitting cross-legged, wearing a helmet that served as a control medium for her two humanoid. The helmet was powered by a battery attached to the back. She sent Pitung to monitor the surroundings using its sensors, while the other robot (Srikandi) was to her right.

To the right side of the meeting was a Squirrelbot with a 20-inch monitor on its chest. To the right of the robot, Wuxia was explaining the strategy.

"Okay, let me repeat this so you guys understand... I’ll have eight people on the front line with me, 16 Squirrelbots in the middle, and the rest on the rear line to protect the controllers,"

"After we launch a surprise attack with hot arrows from the soldering wrist crossbow, the eight people will immediately take cover behind the Squirrelbots,"

"There are only five Squirrelbots controllers. The enemy will definitely target the controllers, which is why I’ve added more to protect the back row."

Beti raised her right hand.

"Yes?"

"Is it permissible to use a rose bombs?"

"Hmm... Yinyin, what’s the situation? Are they all humans or robots?" Wuxia asked.

"They’re all humanoid, sis, because they’re red on the radar, there are about 50 of them in one location," Yinyin replied.

"Just a moment, I’ll connect my radar to the hologram."

The hologram above the monitor emitted light forward and began displaying the enemy’s location.

"Once they’re scattered in every direction..." Wuxia muttered.

"Okay, if they’re all robots—then we’ll destroy them!" Wuxia said firmly.

Beti nodded solemnly.

"Where is their base? Is it close to the robots?" Wuxia asked.

"Just a moment, I’ll activate the building sensors,"

The sensors activated, and buildings of various sizes began to appear on the hologram.

"Well... as you can see, around them—I don’t know what buildings they are, but there are 10 of them, and on the right side, there are 4 buildings that seem to be connected to 6 large craters filled with water—" Yinyin said.

"There it is, that’s the lake water we collected!" Tiko said.

Lunaris, standing to his right side, said.

"Greedy bastard! 6 large craters! How come the Regent hasn’t detected him yet!" Lunaris said angrily.

"Isn’t it obvious~? It’s because of the assassination plan that he hasn’t been caught~" Calestina said, standing to Lunaris’ right.

Lunaris turned to Calestina.

"Crazy cosplay girl!... Everyone else is wearing fire- and bullet-proof outfits, but you’re wearing a kebaya!? Can you really fight in a kebaya?!" Lunaris asked, annoyed.

Calestina was seen wearing an elegant kebaya, her top a sky blue, a short knee-length skirt with a sky blue batik motif, and a gray black batik shawl draped over her shoulders, the ends of which were wrapped around her arms.

Calestina hugged Lunaris.

"Geezz~... Don’t be so fierce~, even though when I fainted you showed your sweet side~" Calestina said.

"H-HAHH!?, W-WHO THE HELL SAID LIKE THAT!?" Lunaris asked, her cheeks reddening.

"Yinyin, hehehe~"

"Yinyin!" Lunaris said, holding back her anger because she was on a mission.

"Hmm... there’s a building of varying sizes... it looks like it’s where the robots and their weaponry are stored, then..." Wuxia thought to herself.

"Okay, then let’s START!" Wuxia said seriously.

The members, who had already prepared their weapons, replied

"ROGER!"

Basement floor.

Black had activated all 50 24-inch monitors.

"Hehehehehe, they think I didn’t detect them, huh?" Black said with a smile, watching from the Owlbot flying above the forest.

Black began pressing the blue communication button.

"How about it, White? Is everything ready?" Black asked.

White was seen setting up the robots via the smart podium installed in front of each robot.

"Okay, bro. Do you want to activate them now?" White asked.

"Not yet, because I want to make a surprise" Black said.

"Okay~" White said.

Black stared at the screen, which displayed the Owlbot’s vision, which could detect the number and speed of people.

"Hohoho, they’re getting close, they’re running fast... Alright, time to fight, everyone!" Black said.

Black pressed the red button, all the robots’ eyes immediately glowed red, indicating they had entered battle mode. At the same time, Squirrel Squad troops appeared in all directions.

Their first attack was a volley of hot arrows fired from the wrist crossbow solderingirons attached to their right wrists, just in front of their navigation bracelets.

"GO MELTING!" Beti said.

Some of the arrows hit their heads, while others only grazed their limbs.

"INFO! IF YOU WANT TO FINISH THEM, ATTACK THEIR HEADS!" Fogi said, 30 meters to the right. He was 178 cm tall, weighed 60 kg, had bald hair, and dark skin.

Wuxia was in the middle.

"T-THANK YOU FOR THE INFO!" Wuxia said, fidgeting with her spear.

Lunaris jumped with her jumping boots. She tried to strike the enemy’s forehead, but unfortunately missed and instead aimed for the robot’s neck. The attack was so powerful, the robot’s head was severed.

"Damn, it missed—"

Lunaris was shocked as the robot immediately fell.

"SIS! TURNS OUT THE CENTER WAS IN THE HEAD!" Lunaris said.

"I told you so..." Fogi muttered.

"Alright... EVERYONE DESTROY THEIR HEADS!!!" Wuxia shouted.

"ROGER THAT!" they replied.

Everyone started aiming for the robots’ heads, some using arrows, firearms, blunt weapons, and sharp weapons.

Black slammed his hand on the table.

"BAM!"

"DAMN IT!!!" Black shouted angrily.

"NOT ONLY ARE THEY QUICK, THEY ALSO MANAGED TO FIND A WEAK POINT SO QUICKLY!"

"WHITE! JUST ACTIVATE THE ELITE GUYS!"

"Y-Yes, bro!" White said in surprise.

White pressed a large red button on a podium in the center of the room. Ten robots, 150-550 cm tall, activated, and the garage door of the 700 cm building slowly opened.

Black grinned as he watched the robots activate on the monitor.

"HIHIHI, GREAT! NOW IT’S TIME TO PARTY!" Black said.

The Squirrel Squad, who were focused on the fight, suddenly felt the ground shake, and the small robots be silent. Wuxia looked behind the small robots and widened her eyes when she saw two large robots (550cm tall) and eight small robots (100-185 cm tall) with unique designs appear behind them.

"Holy shit!..." she muttered in surprise.

The elite robots stopped walking. The large robot on the right makes a sound

"HELLO HELLO HELLO~, WELCOME TO MY HQ~" Black said while grinning.
