Chapter 53 The Floran Colony 8 (2/2)
But the most heidous fact about the Apex is their persuit of knowledge. They seek knowledge whatever the cost, material or even life. The Terrene Protectorate was almost always in some kind of conflict with the Miniknog because of their actions of experimenting in bodies of people from various races without their agreement.
[Looks like the Miniknog is also rejoicing now that the Terrene Protectorate out of their way...] John sadly sighed.
”Where's your base?” John shook the unnecessary thoughts away and continued asking.
”It's just a few kilometers from here, you just need to follow a straight line toward east and in no time you will see our outpost.”
”Okay...” John looked at Lenny. ”Now what do we-”
*Puchi*
”...” The soldier clasped his hand in his throat trying to stop the bleeding. He stared at Peri with his eyes wide open.
Peri was holding a knife that was currently lodged in the soldier's throat. ”Goodbye, scum.” She kicked the body of the soldier to the ground.
”Peri!” John looked at her, their eyes met and John was able so see the emotionless expression of Peri. He decided to not say anything, even though he disagree with her actions of killing someone who had just surrendered.
”She's dangerous.” Lenny approached from behind John and said in low voice. ”More dangerous than you think.” After he spoke this lines, he started to strip the soldiers and take their equipments.
John glanced at Lenny and then at Peri. He thought it was just an impression, but now... He was certain, there's something going on between both of them.
”Here.” Lenny threw something toward John.
John caught the object. He looked at it and saw it was the Spit Fire Assault Rifle.
”It's better than using low tier energy weapons.” Lenny said.

”How many bullets do they have.” John asked. Lenny was right, using the pistols wouldn't be appropriate in this situation. Their enemies were better equipped then them. John decided to use the SFAR03 rifle rather than dual wielding low tier pistols.
”I found about 3000 rounds in their PIPS.” Lenny commented while he looked through the inventory of the soldiers. ”I have 20 mags here as well.” Lenny took everything out of them, including the Armor.
