From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

Chapter 7 Raid
  The dark night and rainy weather in the early morning provided excellent cover, and perhaps good luck. From the time it took off from the forward base until now, the helicopter formation has not been noticed by the UDF, nor has it been attacked by mimics.

In the UH-60E cabin located in the center of the formation, which can accommodate nearly 53 people;
  boom-! boom-!

Click! Click!
  There is not only engine noise in the cabin, but also the friction and collision of metal parts such as handles and magazine covers.

The two sides of the cabin were filled with mercenaries wearing black combat uniforms and level IV body armor, and they were inspecting their weapons and equipment in an orderly manner.

Most of the members of this group of mercenaries are descendants of the security team composed of Arthur Morgan and others in the late 19th century. They know that their boss is the secret of the "Immortal", and they also learned about mimicry in advance through their boss. characteristics.

As for Sui Yang, he was sitting close to the cockpit, and he was dressed and dressed the same as the mercenaries around him.

Of course, Sui Yang can also wear a peaked cap or not wear any helmet protection to highlight his special status...

But performing a mission together with your confidants is an adventure in itself, but it is a decision that you have to make. If you add a little more personalization, wouldn't it be telling the enemy to "come and kill me"?
  Although individual mimics lack self-awareness and intelligence, they can still tell who is the commander.

At this moment, Sui Yang confirmed that the safety of his exclusive 1911 was on, and returned it to the holster hanging on his right leg.

Then, he turned his left hand slightly and used the tablet computer on the inside of his forearm and the dynamic map displayed on the screen to confirm that the formation was still five kilometers away from the Louvre.

The three crew members who controlled the .50cal caliber rotating machine guns on both sides of the cabin and the tail, and whose helmets had HUD displays, realized that they were about to reach the target area, and immediately increased their vigilance and put their thumbs on the trigger button.

"Enemy attack! Get ready!"

“Ri~—buzz!!!”

When the AH-1W gunner issued a reminder on the communication channel, the unique, crisp and "sweet" sound of the rotary machine gun filled the cabin inside and outside the cabin.

"Everyone." Sensing the sudden war situation, Sui Yang connected the headset on his mobile phone and said to all the personnel involved in the operation: "You are the core members of Atlas and the elite. It is my honor to work with you. , and there are only two points I want to say, one, we must win this battle, two, go back and raise your salary, and finally...

Kill all the aliens who stand in our way except Alpha! "

"Huh!"

"Attention all personnel!" The UH-53E pilot also shouted to everyone on the communication channel: "Land in 30 seconds!"

At the same time, the outside of the cabin was quite "brilliant", but it was not the fireworks that people lit to celebrate New Year's Day and New Year.

The fires and explosions that surround and occur between the helicopter formations come from the gun flames and cannon flames when guns and cannons pour dense ammunition on the ground, as well as from hiding half of their bodies in the soil and using their own cores to fire "energy bombs" of mimicry.

The AH-20W is responsible for escorting, has three 70mm cannons, and four 1mm rocket launchers, and is responsible for the main firepower output of the formation.

boom! boom!
  The AH-1W directly uncovers the mimics and the land they hide in.

The four UH-53s that deliberately surrounded and guarded the UH-1E had already opened the hatches on both sides to facilitate the crews operating 7.62 or .50 cal caliber machine guns, as well as the mercenaries using their respective firearms to suppress the ground.

In the movie, Omega did not expect that humans would know its hiding place, so the defense forces deployed around Paris were not dense, which gave William Cage and others an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Although the same is true in reality, "not too dense", there are hundreds of thousands of them.

For people living in a stable world, 30 seconds can be spent in the blink of an eye at most by watching two videos, but for a helicopter formation, it is extremely long. Boom! !
  Facing the dense air defense barrage, a UH-1 on the right side of the formation was unable to dodge and was hit by an energy bomb in the tail and cockpit, triggering a violent explosion that caused the broken fuselage to spin and fall to the ground.

The AH-1W responsible for the firepower output was even targeted by the mimic, and instantly turned into a ball of fire, and the explosion also affected another UH-1H.

However, the glass pyramid is already within visual range.

The UH-1H, which was previously affected by the explosion and was on the verge of collapse, successfully made an emergency landing near the Arc de Triomphe on the west side of the Louvre Museum under the control of two pilots.

Immediately afterwards, several mercenaries climbed out of the cabin, stood up unsteadily, or patted their helmets fiercely, trying to regain consciousness.

In just a few seconds, after the survivors of the crash recovered, they used the UH-1H wreckage and the low wall of the nearby green belt as shelters to engage in a firefight with the mimics attacking from a distance.

Not only them, the remaining UH-1H and UH-53E also successfully arrived at the north square of the glass pyramid.

"Go, go, go!"

As soon as the three helicopters touched the ground, the mercenaries poured out of the cabin.

"Hudson! Hicks! Twist your fat butts! Lead your men to the 20 meters to the east and north, and guard there for me!"

One of the officers, whose shoulder straps had two red horizontal stripes embroidered on them and whose appearance resembled that of Arthur Morgan, immediately issued the order.

After receiving the instructions, more than 30 mercenaries were divided into two teams, quickly rushed east and north, and dispersed and defended at a position about 20 meters away from the landing area. They established a crossfire of firepower in conjunction with the crash site of the Small Arc de Triomphe and the landing area. line to maximize the killing effect.

At the same time, the three helicopters that completed the "unloading" mission took off again and hovered above the Louvre to provide fire support to ground troops.

"Pete! Hall! Take your people and stay here. The rest of you and I will escort the boss to the target location."

After the officer finished issuing the order, the last less than sixty mercenaries were divided into two groups, and some of them continued to guard the landing area.

The other part was a team of three people, keeping a distance of about six meters from each other, escorting the officer and Sui Yang, and quickly approached the glass pyramid.
-
  ...

The pyramid, which should have been neat and bright and filled with art, became dilapidated due to the war.

Wow! Wow!
  The water flow passed through the broken glass, like a waterfall falling on the cracked floor tiles. It had no time to collect, and continued to flow to the center of the hall due to gravity and tilt angle, where there was a collapse pit that seemed to have been "smashed and leaked".

tread! tread! "

The sound of heavy military boots was heard.

The mercenaries were seen entering here alternately, pointing their guns in the direction they were responsible for, and still dispersed in a three-person team formation.

Two of the teams did not need to pay attention to whether there were threats in the hall. They approached and gathered around the collapse pit. When they looked around, they saw the underground parking lot twenty meters down.

And that's where the mimic brain, Omega, is hiding.
