Chapter 125 Lennys Situation 5 (2/2)

”We need to go higher. There's a high possibility that the target is in one of the last floors.”

”Beside the target, leave no one alive. Also, make sure to erase your tracks. We cannot let the ISU found out that we did this assault.”

Lenny hastily retreated as he heard the footsteps getting closer to the emergency stair's door.

It was three sets of footsteps that mean that there was three invaders coming up to his floor.

Facing them without strategy wouldn't be a good idea, so Lenny wanted to stealthy get away without entering in conflict.

He reached for the closest door of one the rooms and entered.

Lenny carefully closed the door as to not make any sound.

After entering, he scanned his surroundings and found out that he was in a simple bedroom.

[The scientist's quarters...] He realized where in the space station he was.

Although it wasn't of great use right now, it was better to know where was than not knowing.

”Check out the rooms. Be careful, I heard an explosion coming from this floor earlier.”

When he heard that, Lenny instantly froze, [Fuck.] He cursed inwardly.

Lenny moved his body and hid behind the door.

His left hand slowly reached for the knife sheathed on the right side of his waist.

With a revolver in his right hand and a knife on the left, he waited for the invaders' next move.

While he did not had a heart, he could still feel his plasma pumping faster as he listened to the footsteps getting closer.

The footsteps stopped by the door.

The person slowly opened the door and carefully peeked in the dark room.

Lenny could see the muzzle of the invader's rifle that had a flashlight attached just beneath it that provided enough light to illuminate the whole room.

As the person entered in the room, Lenny readied himself.

The moment Lenny had sight of the person's head, he immediately launched himself on him.

Lenny's knife gleamed with a sharp and deadly light as it found it's way in the weak spot of the invader's armor, right between the helmet and the chestplate.

The knife cleanly pierced through the neck.

Lenny didn't end with only this.

”Ghlargh...” The invader wanted to fight back while gnarling sounds came from mouth.

Lenny pushed him and both fell on the floor with a loud thud.

Twisting his knife, Lenny managed to finish him off.

”Contact! Contact!”

Lenny heard another invader shouting from outside the room.

Without hesitation, Lenny stood up from the corpse and rolled to the side, getting as far away as possible from door.

*Bang, bang, bang...*

Multiples gunshots could be heard as Lenny saw the bullets piercing the metal door and hitting the corpse on the ground.

Crimson blood sprayed from holes made by the bullets.

”Dead?” One of the two invaders outside asked.

”I don't know. Don't lower you guard. 0367 is dead, his heart had stopped beating.”

Lenny frowned when he heard the invader knew the fact that his companion was dead.

[Are they monitoring the heartbeat through the PIPS?] That was the plausible conclusion that Lenny could come up with.
