Cyberpunk: Spartan Walker

Case's hand holding the seat belt tightened hard, and he kicked his legs forward, moving his whole body forward a certain distance. He repeated this action a few more times, then made a light jump, came to the cockpit door, opened the door with a swipe, and then rushed into the cockpit.

With no time to pay attention to the two pilots who were slumped in the seats, he kicked off the bulkhead again, grabbed the back of the seat, then approached the instrument panel of the troop carrier, and quickly pressed a few times on the instrument panel with both hands.

The bow of the Pelican troop carrier suddenly pulled up, its wings folded, the flames bursting out became more intense, and its falling momentum stopped instantly.

After closing the hatch, retracting the gangway, and confirming that they had reentered the orbit of Halo and that the altitude was gradually rising, Keyes handed over control of the spacecraft to the computer, and then checked Laurel's injuries.

Her arms and abdomen were shot through by bullets, and excessive blood loss made her whole body cold and her lips pale. Keith took out self-healing foam from a nearby container and sprayed it on her wound. He held her trembling hand and said, Hold on, you're fine.

Enemy Bane showed a weak smile, Captain, your sword is still young.

Keith responded with a comforting smile, How could I be your captain otherwise? He checked Laurel's injuries again, and after ensuring that her life was not in danger for the time being, he looked at the tragic marks in the cockpit.

The dashboard and windshield were covered with mottled blood, and the co-pilot Frye had a bloody hole in the back of his head. His eyes that couldn't be closed seemed to imply that he never expected that his surprise attack would fail.

Case felt a heavy feeling in his chest and a bitter taste in his mouth - such an excellent pilot died in the mutiny in a daze. To a certain extent, the Covenant had won them a step.

He tried to contact Price, and after a worrying static noise, the communication was connected, and Ellie's silvery voice came from the other side.

Captain, are you okay? That guy Silva—

I know, Ellie, we are fine. Case said, Send a Pelican troop carrier over as soon as possible. I have wounded here that need to be transported. He paused, I will be responsible for the evacuation of the Master Chief next. .”

Roger that, Captain, a Pelican is on its way.

Keyes nodded subconsciously, and then asked: How much damage did the rebellion cause?

Combat deployment time: +169 hours, 12 minutes and 34 seconds (Colonel Price’s mission clock)

Ther galaxy, Halo low orbit, aboard the captured Covenant force cruiser Truth and Harmony.

Thanks to lightning-fast and highly coordinated raids, humans have controlled more than 80% of the area on the Truth and Harmony, but one of the core parts of the battleship, the bridge, has not yet been captured. They must get the battleship off the ground before the Master Chief detonates the Pillar of Autumn. Those cabins that are not yet under human control can be dealt with later.

Tommy led a group of Helltroopers through an anti-gravity elevator inside the battleship, fighting their way through the maze of corridors and cabins occupied by the Flood or the Covenant. They turned a corner and saw an open hatch ahead.

It looks like a berthing bay, Ellie said. We should be able to get to the third-level bridge from there. 】

The Covenant battle network interface that Ellie was tracking continued to send back new signals, and the internal structure of the battleship was displayed in the upper right corner of Tommy's heads-up display.

They ran and rushed to a corridor above the berth, where they saw an inextricable battle between the Covenant and the Flood.

Tommy directed the team to hide in the surrounding bunkers, planning to wait until their forces were almost exhausted by each other before launching a thunderous strike. While waiting, he carefully observed the terrain position of the parking cabin and found that there was a second-floor platform for them to use.

[Tout, you take Jenkins and Robert upstairs,] Tommy gestured to them, and then pointed to the spacious second-floor platform, [Give us a little firepower from high up. 】

They agreed immediately, then crouched down and quickly ran towards the hatch on the right, disappearing out of Tommy's sight.

Tommy turned his attention back to the battle. He spent more than ten seconds waiting for them to be almost defeated before throwing two fragmentation grenades into the chaos. They achieved the desired effect. The enemies were knocked upside down in the explosion, but it also announced the arrival of humans, and the Flood came like iron filings pulled by a magnet.

The Flood's charge was formidable, but the firepower of Tommy and a group of Helltroopers was even more frightening, and the covering fire from the upper platform exacerbated their deaths. The two sides exchanged fire for a while, and finally the battle ended magnificently with Rebecca firing a missile.

The exchange of fire subsided, and they rushed to the other end of the corridor, passed through an open hatch, and fought their way up to the second floor corridor. From a distance, the Flood could be seen gathering at the end of the corridor, which meant they had to clear the way head-on.

At this time, a conglomeration-type Flood Demon exploded, knocking a group of combat-type Flood Demons to the ground.

The splitting Concentrated Flood spewed out a bunch of greedy Infection Floods, some of which were crushed to pieces. A fallen Flood warrior was flopping forward, dragging a broken leg behind him, holding a grenade tightly in his hands as if it were a bouquet of flowers.

When the armor-piercing bullets whizzed out and the flower-like grenade exploded, Tommy couldn't help but feel that he should be grateful to the Flood soldier.

The Conglomerate Flood gave Tommy an idea - once they burst, they would cause a chain reaction. The second ugly monster staggered into his sight and sprinted forward, accompanied by a group of infection-type Floods and two other fighting-type Floods.

So just as the other paratroopers opened fire, he raised his pistol and pointed the scope at the combat Flood. He was very satisfied with what he saw: every combat Flood held a plasma grenade in its hand.

He took a few steps closer, and the combat-type Flood immediately jumped high into the air despite the hail of bullets. As soon as their feet left the ground, Tommy knelt down on one knee and fired - directly at the Concentrated Flood.

His eyesight was astonishing, and the bullet whizzed through the Concentrated Flood. It exploded immediately, detonating the plasma grenades carried by several other combat-type Floods. The monsters vanished in a dazzling flash of bright blue with extremely high temperatures.

The bridge is not far away! Ellie reminded in the communication channel, and everyone present could see the distance between themselves and the bridge through her prompts.

In order to seize the bridge as soon as possible and let the Truth and Harmony fly before the halo exploded, they ran fast, passing through the blood-stained deck, and followed the new direction navigation point to a hatch. They walked through the entrance and down the corridor to an intersection, turned right, then left. When they walked through a hatch, they saw a hallway filled with Covenant and Flood people.
