Chereads / The Gamer's Apocalypse / Chapter 21 - Slaughter

Chapter 21 - Slaughter

The moment that the two spider tanks appeared the guy in nearest guard tower started shouting inside in panic then fired his rifle towards the lead tank. A few seconds later the second tower started firing on it as well.

The camp immediately went into an alert. However their world suddenly plunged into chaos when the command building suddenly exploded.

The A.I. chose that moment to eliminate the command structure.

Then head of the guy on the furthest guard tower suddenly exploded from the sniper sentry.

The A.I. the targeted the barracks since according to the last bio scans that is where the biggest concentration of army personnel is located.

It took two shots from the Plasma cannon to completely reduce it to rubbles. Probably 50 to 60 are dead in that building alone.

The camp started mobilizing by then. Four SUV with roof mounted guns speed up exited the gate and started firing.

By now both of the towers are blown by the two spider tanks.

When the first SUV appeared it was immediately peppered with bullets from the attack drones all occupants died in mere seconds. The second and third vehicle where then engaged by the spider tank's secondary weapons and was quickly disabled, both the driver and the gunner dead.

The last SUV cashed on the back of the lead SUV and the occupants also killed by the bullets from the attack drones.

The A.I. kept on firing. Adam labelled all the significant targets earlier on the map. It took out both buildings and the remaining tower on the furthest corner.

It also dropped plasma shot on areas where the armed personnel are huddled over. Reducing the people inside the camp down to seventy people.

All spider tanks are specifically ordered not to touch any of the heavy machine guns. So the four strong points are still standing and pointing their guns towards the gate.

Suddenly, the west wall suddenly exploded and a fifteen foot tall walking tank strolled in and a few seconds later two huge armoured spider walked behind it. The rifle and heavy machinegun fire are ineffective and their bullets are just bouncing off the armor.

Using secondary weapons they swept through the rest of the camp and killed anyone that has a gun.

Out of nowhere, the head of the guy manning of the heavy machinegun suddenly exploded, then another and another. Eventually, all gunners where killed off by the sniper sentry.

The moment that the threat of the last heavy machinegun was removed the rest of the attack drones flew over the wall and joined the fight as well.

In less than five minutes all the people inside the camp are dead.

He saw during the fight that a few people had run inside the bunker.

He walked to the front of the bunker and checked its status. Its two top hinges were blown and it's barely hanging from the last hinge at the bottom.

The locking mechanism looks like it's been through a hundred container tanks of acetylene torch.

With the small open gap on the metal door, the spider tank and the mobile armor won't be able to fit.

He is trying to weigh the possible danger of going inside without his armor and tanks.

He ordered the A.I. to return and to get four scout drones and all the attack drones to go inside the bunker to seek and destroy any remaining mercenary.

The moment that the first attack droid enters the hole it blew up due to heavy fire from the people inside.

So he ordered the drones that are equipped with grenade launchers to start firing inside the hole.

That stopped the continuous fire inside. He immediately ordered one drone to go inside to let him see what's inside.

This automatically added that hallway to his map. It shows the current situation inside. The people inside have created a makeshift defensive cover and are hiding behind it.

He summoned two sentries right behind them, he heard the renewed fire fight inside so he ordered all the attack drones to rush inside.

The same scene repeated a few more times inside. It seems that there's another smaller contingent of mercenary troops inside.

He waited for the Cooldown for the drones since needed to replenish his drones and sentries a few times. The same tactics pretty much solved the problem.

After two hours of fighting the drones finally declared the area safe. No additional life signs are detected inside.

He decided to set up a camp here for the night.

He summoned his own personal bunker twenty meters from the entrance of the military bunker.

He then setup his sentries around the perimeter for protection. He also established his monitor drone a hundred meters above as usual.

He ordered five attack drones to patrol the outer area that he establishes on the map.

He placed one spider tank right outside the door of the military bunker. The other four are simply spaced around his bunker ready to be deployed if needed.

The drones have located an old elevator shaft that goes down to more underground levels. He sent the A.I. with the remaining available drones and attack drones to explore the lower levels of that bunker.

After everything is setup. He occupied his bunker and settled in for the night.
