RUST -493

The Holy Kingdom Strike Force, led by the Royal Guard, was overwhelmingly defeated in suicide attacks and street fighting until a sound similar to the howling of wolves began to echo through the ruins of the city.

KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Didn’t the wolf unit decide to wait outside the city?]

[No. That’s not the sound our wolves make.]

We decided to catch the ones running away from the outskirts of the city. The wolves howling in the middle of the city aren’t from this area.

‘Did they tame wolves too?’

If the monster wolves were moving in packs, moving in squad units was inefficient.

[Changed from squad unit to team unit.]

[Gather together as a team and attack.]

[Go as a team.]

A squad of 10 exosuits was split into two teams.

A method of dividing into two teams and taking turns assisting and supporting each other.

[Show-daedani-ro geumurjja-so-daedani-](Weave a net by platoon unit – platoon unit -)

At Director Yoo Mark 2’s voice, the corners of Kim Yang’s eyes slightly rose.

[Based on a two man cell. Small drones deployed! While the lead team digs into the wolf pack, the wing team cleans up the scattered ones.]

[A platoon!!! What the heck!!! What if it’s not a swarm?](I told you to divide into platoons and make a net!!! What if it’s not a wolf?)

‘Ah- really- a voice like 10.’

It was fortunate that the communication channel was restricted. It was terrifying to think that Director Yu Mark 2’s voice was transmitted over the entire communication.

‘You fucking bitch. When I ask you for advice, you start jumping around like a fish in water.’

Kim Yang sent a signal to Director Yu Mark 2.

[If it sounds like a wolf, then it’s a wolf. What are you talking about when you say it’s not a wolf?]

[Mobazzana. What should I do with Girogi? If Neuttega is Issus, then Kamagi, Dronni, and Chajajji] (You haven’t seen it until now. There’s no record. If there were wolves, the crows and drones would have found them.)

Director Yu Mark 2 was cautious.

sound?

Wouldn’t that be okay if you just disguise it as a speaker?

When we were surrounded in Afghanistan and Iraq, we played the sound of helicopters to fool the enemy. Conversely, the enemy also played the sound of gunfire and explosions to fool us.

[······.]

[Rotero is difficult. Tachi Ive. It’s better to do it the Tachi Ive way.] [Rotero is difficult. Tachi Weave. It’s better to do it the Tachi Weave way.]

The Rotte tactic was a maneuver mainly used by the German Air Force in World War II. It was a tactic in which two fighter planes attacked each other in support.

It was a frequently used method among the two-man cell tactics. The essence was that while the leader in front was digging in, the wingman who followed behind was attacking with a delay.

However, Director Yu Mark 2 suggested that rather than rushing in first when the enemy was uncertain, it would be better to lure them out. That is, he suggested using the Tachi-Weave.

I used to hide alone and snipe from a long distance. I sent the kids first to use them as bait and snipe them. When Maru went wild, I would help him snipe and suck up the honey comfortably. As she was supposed to be in command, there were a lot of things to take care of, so Kim Yang was starting to get annoyed, but she was holding it in and doing well.

[How about the drones? Did you find the ones making noise?]

[Chijik- Not found yet.]

Still haven’t found it? Maybe, as Director Yu Mark 2 suggested, the wolf noises were a trick.

[Return the crows that were searching the outskirts of the city. Finding the enemy is the priority.]

[Okay. – Chijijik]

As soon as noise began to be heard from the radio, it was Ms. Kim who immediately checked it.

[Close the distance. Be careful of communication failure.]

[Ouch! Beep-]

[Squadron-Daniro Haragyu-]

[I’ve never trained like that before, so what should I do? It’s better to move like you are doing now than to respond clumsily. In any case, I need to let you gain practical experience.]

Director Yu Mark 2’s eyes widened in bewilderment at the words, “The best training is actual combat,” to the kids who had completed basic training and exosuit piloting training.

What? You guys… You just did it without even training in platoon or company tactics?

[Training is real. Don’t you remember?]

Director Yoo’s original plan was to manipulate Ms. Kim in that way.

[Moose, are you crazy? Are you crazy?](What are you talking about? Are you crazy?)

[So you were back. You said something was strange. ‘Let’s train for real.’ That’s what you, the original, said to me.]

[······.]

[If you don’t remember, that’s fine. Just keep an eye on the monitor.]

The reason Kim Yang was able to immediately be put into actual combat was because she had some degree of trust. The bodyguards who were in the positions of team leader, squad leader, platoon leader, and company commander were veterans who had worked with her.

[Chijijik – There’s something strange inside the building.]

[I told you to avoid any communication failures at all costs, right? Close the distance immediately. Is there something strange?]

[I will correct this. The unidentified life form is not moving from its spot.]

[Do not approach and surround the building. Pass on the coordinates.]

[Old. The coordinates are···.]

[Artillery. It’s artillery fire. Begin concentrated artillery fire on the coordinates you just entered!]

[You don’t even know?](Without even checking?)

What do you mean go in and what do you mean check? First, bombardment.

Following Kim Yang’s orders, concentrated artillery fire was poured on the buildings with marked coordinates.

Boom- Boom!

Kwaaaaang!

Something inside tried to escape the building, but there was no way to avoid the pouring rain of steel. Something that was blown to pieces by a 155mm bullet.

[Video. Analyze the video. What is that?]

[This is… a monster?]

A blurry shape floating on a still image.

It walked on two legs. It had shaggy hair all over its body. It had a head with a protruding snout. It was neither human nor dog, but a monster that looked so strange that it was unpleasant.

[Werewolf?]

[A person like that is a werewolf?]

As if they realized that their comrade was dead, the howling of wolves spread again in all directions.

Awwww!

KOOOOOOOOOO!

[3rd Platoon, 2nd Squad, monster discovered at 3 o’clock direction.]

Footage captured by the Alpha Team 2nd Squad camera began to be shared in real time. The sight of the werewolf running alternately on two legs and four legs was grotesque.

[The currently unknown monster is named a werewolf.]

[Avoids close combat.]

Since we didn’t know their power, we had to prioritize safety.

The werewolf’s mobility exceeded expectations.

[Faster than a cannibal.]

It wasn’t just fast, it was much faster.

[Step back.]

[Step back a little!]

[Shoot while stepping back. Don’t stop shooting!]

A barrage of 12.7mm bullets were fired at the werewolf, who was rushing forward using the building and walls in three dimensions. Even after hitting the target, the werewolf flinched for a moment and then continued to charge.

[Change to armor-piercing bullets.]

[Replace with armor-piercing bullets. Implement.]

[Armor-piercing shell replacement complete.]

[firing!]

Tudadadak-

Tadadadadang-

[It hurts.]

[The werewolf steps back.]

[Check the resistance.]

It worked, but that was it. It could stop them from getting close, but it couldn’t kill them. The wounds from the armor-piercing bullets healed in an instant.

[Special bullet insertion.]

Kim Yang immediately gave the order to replace it with an incendiary armor-piercing shell.

[Replace with special bullets!]

[Switch to special bullets quickly, quickly.]

And the incendiary bullet worked. The flames and heat from the bullet bursting through the hole cauterized the wound.

[It works.]

[Huh? Is that kid crazy?]

[Werewolves hit by special bullets are committing suicide.]

In the video, a werewolf was seen picking at its blackened wounds from a pyrotechnic bullet.

The gunshot wounds to his side and leg were still burning. Despite the terrible pain, he dug into the wounds with his fingernails.

As the entire gunshot wound was ripped off, sparks flying and black smoke billowing out, the wound grew so fast that it was visible to the naked eye. It was truly an incredible regenerative power.

Kim Yang shouted, recalling the terrible mutant with regenerative powers he had encountered in the past.

[If you hit a vital point, those guys will die.]

[Don’t be fooled by its dirty appearance!]

[Just think of it as a leather-bound variant.]

The mutants I killed in the past were tough, but I was eventually able to catch them.

I caught it by myself, so there was no need to be scared because the shape was a little different.

[2nd Platoon, 3rd Squad. Two werewolves approaching from 2 o’clock. Engage.]

[1st Platoon, 1st Squad. 5 entities approaching from 1 o’clock direction. Please assist.]

The endless ringing of gunshots. The red-hot barrels.

The howls of the beasts and the screams of the soldiers began to mix.

[New gloves. They work. They can stop their claws.]

A new exosuit glove made from monster byproducts has been reported to be able to stop werewolf claws.

So who screamed?

Unfortunately, the armor of the mass-produced exosuit was not able to withstand the werewolf’s claws. Furthermore, the new exosuit was not invincible either.

[Teeth! The werewolf’s teeth pierced the new armor.]

Information densely pops up in real time on Kim Yang’s exosuit HUD screen.

Tsk-

[Pour it out so it can’t be approached!]

All I had to do was avoid close combat. The guys must have known that, because they started using tactics like throwing out a few baits to get concentrated fire and then using that gap to get close.

Bang- bang-

Tuang- cheolcheok-

Kim Yang, who was sitting in a corner, put a new bullet into the werewolf’s eyeball as it was about to open its mouth. The new bullet, which contained monster byproducts, burst the eyeball and tore through the inside.

It’s unclear what caused the reaction, but the werewolf’s wound from the new bullet began to bleed more and more heavily.

Kwaaaaah!

As Yang Kim fed another bullet into the mouth of the man writhing in pain, he heard Director Yu Mark 2 scream in his ear.

[Gyaaaah- fuck!]

A werewolf, noticeably larger than the others, was tearing at the armor of the command vehicle with its claws.

Honest- Kkaddeuk-

Behind the composite armor peeling off like an orange peel, two exosuits fired javelins at the back of the large werewolf.

Puhwaaaaak-

Just as two Javelin missiles were heading towards the thing’s back, the werewolf that was tearing off the armor twisted its body to avoid it. The Javelin missiles, momentarily missing their target, exploded twice in the side of the command vehicle.

[crazy!]

[Shoot!]

Two exosuits fired their javelins and raised their guns towards the werewolf who dodged into the air.

Tada dadadang!

Babak! – Babababak!

A werewolf with his arms crossed in an X shape and his face hidden landed in the middle of two exosuits.

A staggering werewolf. Even though he had blocked his vital points with a guard, the wounds on his arms and abdomen were clear and unavoidable. Even after seeing the guy with injuries here and there, the second exosuit did not let its guard down.

[Back! Step back!]

[Keep pulling!]

At that moment, a large werewolf strode forward. He ignored the bullet piercing his stomach and moved his feet, chewing on the pain of his ribs breaking.

Crack- The hand of the thing that looked like a pot lid grabbed the exosuit’s helmet. Crack- Claws digging into the helmet. Crack- The sound of finger marks being carved, and the movement of pulling upwards.

Quaddudduk-

The wires and devices connecting the exosuit’s helmet to its torso were torn, ripping the helmet out, along with the pilot’s spinal cord.

[Kyaaaaah! This monster! Die!]

The exosuit next to him desperately pulled the trigger, but the thing trembled all over and did not back down.

[Damage there.]

At the sound of Kim Yang’s voice, the exosuit leapt to the side.

Kwaaaaang!

The 120mm Rheinmetall smoothbore gun opened fire.

Boom! – With a dull thud, the large werewolf was reduced to dust.

[The attack has stopped.]

[The guys run away.]

Kim Yang laughed fiercely at the reports coming from here and there.

[Pursue them. Don’t miss a single one.]

155mm shells began to rain down on their retreat route.

The expression on the head office agent’s face was not good.

At least I was expecting to see Vladimir Kalin’s abilities, but Yania Kim’s abilities were not properly brought out and were sorted out.

‘So the test subject is just a test subject.’

It was a force that the headquarters decided there was no need to touch. The empire wouldn’t touch it either. So what should we do? Even if it was just a test subject, it would be a waste to just throw it away.

‘I’m really tempted by the exosuit and the bullet shown at the end.’

Should I gather up the scattered bastards and retrieve them?

Telepathy that breaks through such thoughts.

[How did the Tullydo operation go? Did you check on Vladimir Kalin?]

[No, they didn’t come. I threw out a pretty big bait, but they didn’t bite.]

[Fuck. Then it’s definitely him. I’m sure.]

[What’s going on?]

[That crazy guy attacked our navy. He stole an Aegis ship.]
