Chapter 13 (1/2)
SECT.13 - Battle to the Death
“Sorry, LLENN. I failed to take down the sniper.”
“That’s alright!”
LLENN stood up as she answered to M. She pulled the sling and brought her P90 in front of her body.
She did not have the time to talk leisurely. There was still an enemy in the shade of a rock about 30 metres in front of here, and the enemy should be heading towards her. Because that is what she would do.
No longer minding the other two who were nearby, LLENN broke into a run.
It was an extreme dash towards the enemy, with the resolution of colliding into them. As she ran, the rocks kept moving to the back of her vision as if they were soaring, and what came out from the shade of one of the rocks,
“Uooooooooo!”
Was a large woman with a shouting expression who was aiming a pistol at her.
Squeezing the P90’s trigger, LLENN continued her a.s.sault. By drawing near, she kept moving below the bullets and thus kept dodging her opponent’s line of fire.
She saw her own bullets heading for the huge woman’s legs, but this woman was not a weak opponent that could be taken down that easily.
‘In that case, I’ll shoot you up even if I have to run into you!’
LLENN, who continued charging while dodging bullets,
“Don’t make light of me!”
Saw that the huge woman was raising her big and long leg. And, that it was heading for her like a slanting log.
“Guhya!”
Giving a tiny scream, LLENN was kicked up. While soaring in the sky——
‘I can’t let her go that easily!’
LLENN put all of her energy solely into the hand grasping her P90.
And then, the small body that flew in the air,
“Boheh!”
Landed on one of the rocks.
What LLENN had fallen on with her back was a flat and wide rock that was at least 2 metres.h.i.+gh. ‘Just how far was I blown away?’
“Ugaah……”
She did not feel any sharp pain, but due to the feeling of her back being pressed with a thump, she couldn’t help but be in agony for about 2 seconds.
When LLENN finally tried standing up, her right hand,
*Gorih*.
Was stepped on by a big leg.
The right leg of the huge woman that ran up to the top of the rock, and still had hit effectsshown——
Pinned down her arm with the P90.
LLENN’s hand and P90 were fixed onto her stomach as if held in a vise. Her right hand could not be moved, and her stomach hurt. As if she had overeaten.
“I have you now!”
As the roaring huge woman was backlit, LLENN could not see her face, but——
‘I’m glad that I can’t see her It’s probably scary Probably like an Asura. (2)’
She was able to think calmly.
“The finis.h.i.+ng move!”
The huge woman’s right arm had turned towards her.
It was grasping a black pistol. She saw a red Line coming from it, and it was fixed on her left breast, exactly where her heart was.
*Dadadan*
Three, consecutive, merciless and high-speed shots.
‘Even though you didn’t need to shoot that much, I would have died from 1 shot. A waste of bullets.’
With such a thought, LLENN felt the impact shaking her body.
And, ‘It’s less painful than I thought’, she had this thought as well.
It was an attack on her heart, and yet it only felt as if her chest was knocked on with a *tontonton*. ‘Perhaps the pain is no longer being reproduced since I died from the first bullet?’
That was not it.
Looking at her hit point gauge, she saw that although it was red, it was still the same as it was moments ago. She had been hit by 3 bullets, and yet it hadn’t decreased at all. Speaking of which, she did see any hit effects either.
‘How?’
“Aah?”
It seemed that her enemy-san was more surprised than her,
*Dan*, *dan*, *dan*, *dan*.
This time, she slowly fired four times consecutively, at her chest of course. LLENN clearly saw how the slide quickly made round trips, and each time an empty sh.e.l.l was thrown out and glittered.
And still, she did not die.
“Is this guy invulnerable? A cheat?”
‘That can’t be the case you know?’
LLENN tried answering to the question, but——
Before she did, she realised. She remembered. What was in the left chest pocket of her combat uniform.
It was the satellite scan terminal——. An indestructible object.
“Shhit! What, a protector!”
‘No, that is not it, though the result is the same.’
“Then——”
The Bullet Line rose from her chest. It was fixed on her right eye, and the world was dyed in deep red,
“Hyah!
LLENN twist her neck to the left. A 9mm bullet that grazed her right ear pierced the rock behind her.
Another Line. This time, she twisted her neck to the right. She heard the sound of impact right next to her left ear.
And then, the huge woman drew her pistol closer. At LLENN’s forehead, merely about 20 cmaway.
She avoided those 2 bullets, but she was done for with the next.
LLENN’s resolution to die for the umpteenth time today,
“Wh—— s.h.i.+t!”
Was once again wiped out by the huge woman’s surprised words, and by the disappearance of theBullet Lines.
The pistol thrust at her, specifically, its slide stopped at the back.
When an automatic pistol is in such a state, it means that that a common phenomenon around the world has occurred. Namely, either a load failure, or the gun has run out of ammo.
In this case, it was the latter. The huge woman had fired too much.
Having accustomed to the backlighting, LLENN saw the body of the huge woman. While pinning her down with her right foot, the woman reached for the pouch on her left thigh with her left hand as she removed the empty magazine from the pistol with her right.
It was obvious that she was trying to take out a spare magazine for her pistol and reload it, and if this was allowed, 10 bullets or more would probably descend on her face this time.
‘Yeah. I won’t let you.’
‘But, what do I do? What can I do?’
LLENN used the weapon that she could use.
She moved her sole free, left hand and swiftly pulled out a long P90’s magazine from her left thigh pouch, and,
“Taah!”
With a yell, she threw it with all her might.
The ma.s.sive magazine filled with bullets collided with the huge woman’s left hand,
“Wh!”
And sent the pistol magazine in it flying below the rock.
“Another one.”
LLENN pulled out a second magazine, and threw it at the huge woman’s face this time . The longmagazine that turned sideways collided with the woman’s eye,
“Kyah.”
And forced a cute scream, which reminded LLENN that the player was female, out of her.
As expected, the force in her right leg loosened. LLENN put all her might into swinging her right hand, forcing the large figured to sway, and fall backwards——
“Sh-”
However, by only stumbling a step or two, she stopped.
Using this gap, LLENN rolled to the left to escape, then got up to jump, and then she extended her right hand and thrust the muzzle of her P90 towards the huge woman who was about 2 metresin front of her.
“Taah!”
She fired all the remaining bullets in full auto.
Burarararararararararararararara.
The ten-odd bullets that remained in the magazine were immediately fired out.
Meanwhile, only the first 5 bullets landed a hit. On the huge woman’s left arm and hand.
“Haah?”
LLENN was shocked.
Even in her dreams she wouldn’t have thought that person who would do such a thing existed.
The huge woman discerned that she would not be able to dodge the attack, thus she made her own attack. And so, she extended her left arm towards the P90 muzzle.
And, she tightly grasped the tip of the barrel that was spewing out flames as the gun fired, and forcibly s.h.i.+fted the line of fire to the left. The P90 discharge continued, but all the remaining bullets were soaked up by the ground below the rock.
On the same rock, LLENN who had extended her left arm with her P90, and the huge woman who grasped its tip with her left hand——
Stood still in that posture.
“D-doesn’t it hurt a bit?”
LLENN reflexively enquired. Even though it did not hurt as much as in RL, it should have been considerably hard on her senses when that many holes were opened in her left arm.
The woman with her left arm and hand dyed in bright red by the hit effects,
