Chapter 6: Side quest: Recapture D17 position

"What happened? How did you lose your position?"

Andrei glanced at the direction the officer had just run from, and immediately felt a bad premonition, because the fellow had run from the trench on his flank!

If that trench was lost, then the section of trench he was in would become a complete salient, facing a fierce frontal Assault from the enemy while also being attacked from the flanks.

In this situation, even if his Soldiers were made of iron, it would be impossible to hold this position!

So Andrei immediately realized that he had to quickly retake the lost position, otherwise the enemy would soon rush in from the trenches behind him!

After several gasps, the officer said urgently:

"Captain, it's not that our brothers aren't strong enough, it's that the enemy's Fear Knight squad has arrived! My men couldn't penetrate their power armor, and before they could even throw grenades, our brothers were already riddled with holes!"

Andrei's face turned a little pale when he heard this.

If he didn't mishear, he seemed to have heard the word 'power armor'?

Who can tell him what kind of absurd world he has transmigrated into? Here, they are fighting trench warfare with World War I equipment, and there are multi-legged armored vehicles, Necromancers, and modified Soldiers, and now even power armor has appeared!

Alright, alright, the only world he had ever seen that was this absurd was Warhammer 40k! Could it be that he really became an Imperial Guard grunt?

However, before Andrei could speak, the Old Soldier said to him first:

"Captain, send me 20 good men, and I'll take back the position they lost!"

"It's just power armor, I've seen this stuff before, just give me more grenades!"

Andrei nodded, then shouted to the ten Players beside him and the Soldiers still firing further away:

"Twenty people, go take back that lost position! Be careful of the enemy's power armor!"

At the same time, the Players also received a side quest:

"Side Quest: Retake the D17 position occupied by the enemy, and kill the enemy's Fear Knight! Total quest reward: 500 Merits ! Number of participants: 0/20"

"Note: All quest rewards will be distributed according to the output ratio of the participants. The higher the output in the quest, the larger the proportion of the reward!"

To make Players work hard on quests, extra rewards naturally had to be given, otherwise who would bother with side quests for no reason?

As for how the quest rewards should be specifically divided?

Andrei directly used the system's output statistics for division, those who could do more would get more!

As soon as the side quest was released, the Players exploded with excitement. A group of people, no idea how fast their hand speed was, all clicked to join the quest within three seconds.

At the same time, ten brave warriors from other local Soldiers also chose to sign up and join this mission, which they considered extremely dangerous.

Compared to those other brave warriors, the Players were not at all concerned about the danger of the mission.

Isn't it just power armor? What's so scary?

For other Soldiers, power armor meant that this mission was almost certain death, but for Players, power armor only made them more excited!

After the death squad responsible for retaking the position was assembled, the Old Soldier led them out. However, after only two steps, the Old Soldier couldn't help but frown.

Because he found that these Soldiers rushing with him were brave enough, even their courage exceeded his imagination, but their tactics were simply terrible!

Each of these guys only knew how to run forward desperately, without even the most basic tactical formations and cross-fire cover. If you knew they were charging, you'd think they were rushing to be reborn!

"Hey, you guys, run slower, are you waiting to be taken down by a single burst?"

Looking at the few reckless individuals at the very front, the Old Soldier quickly stopped them and shouted, but the person charging at the very front just said carelessly:

"Brother Boris, don't worry! Let this young master show you some moves!"

Immediately after, to the astonished gaze of the Old Soldier Boris, this Soldier pulled out a bayonet from behind him and fixed it onto his submachine gun, then let out a roar and charged forward at an unimaginable speed.

"Suka blyat! Is this f***ing suicide?!"

Boris was truly shocked. Not to mention how this guy could carry so much stuff and still run so fast, just the act of directly fixing a bayonet and charging mindlessly left him speechless.

The Black Hawk Soldiers who had just rushed into the trench and occupied this position suddenly heard a fierce roar. Before they could figure out what was going on, a reckless individual suddenly charged out from the side passage, roaring.

Seeing this enemy Soldier with a crazy look on his face, charging desperately with a bayonet, several Black Hawk Soldiers were also startled and quickly raised their rifles to shoot at him!

But to the horror of these Black Hawk Soldiers, the rifle bullets that should have been able to take down the opponent with one shot seemed to have malfunctioned at this moment!

They fired three consecutive bullets, hitting him accurately at such close range, piercing his abdomen and thigh respectively.

But even after taking three consecutive shots, this Soldier's charging speed didn't slow down at all. He crashed in like a wild bull, then stabbed a bayonet into someone's chest, and even twisted it twice with force!

Immediately after, having just stabbed someone to death, this Soldier smoothly pulled out a large bundle of stick grenades from behind him and threw them at them.

The remaining two Black Hawk Soldiers were blown away on the spot before they could even react.

And the Soldier who had just finished a bayonet charge, looking at his critically low health, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Holy crap, the damage from these game NPCs is really high!"

"Fortunately, I have damage reduction when charging, otherwise I'd definitely be dead!"

Immediately after, he quickly called for a Medical Soldier in the chat area, telling him to quickly give him a medical kit.

Just then, several other Players also ran over one after another.

Unfortunately, these Assaults completely ignored the Player waiting for treatment in the corner, and without even looking, they all roared and launched bayonet charges as well.

Following closely behind these bayonet-charging Players, the Old Soldier Boris, who was leading the team, finally ran up, panting, only feeling that the stamina of these new recruits was truly absurd!

And just then, he saw the tough guy standing in the corner, who had solved three enemies with one charge, was bleeding profusely, yet still stood tall!
