Hearing that one word, the Colonel's bloodlust is unleashed. A intangible force that makes one feel like a apex predator has set its sights on you floods the area, the one closest to him Doctor Asclepius feels his legs go weak and as he starts to turn away to flee, he hears a loud popping sound before the pain hits him.
Looking down he sees a arm buried to the elbow piercing deep into his chest. Colonel Rico targeted him first, reacting immediately he punched a hole all the way through the rib cage and lungs reaching the Doctors heart from his side, with a violent jerking motion Asclepius heart is cleanly ripped out.
Asclepius last thoughts were realizing the noise he heard was his ribs being shattered before he crumpled to the ground. The last thing he sees while looking up is his own heart and the cruel grin of the man holding it. He had died before he could take a single step.
Colonel Rico knew a fight was inevitable, the Technomancers single word of "why" was the real problem here. To question him was a challenge to his authority, and his authority came from the Imperium and the Imperium was absolute, it could not be questioned. The fact this trash dared to question him was all the justification he needed to commit a massacre.
The biomechanics team doesn't even have time to process what just happened despite being prepared for a fight. They are inexperienced when it comes to battle, but that's a advantage the six elite guards take full use of without hesitation. A cluster of EMP grenades are thrown perfectly matching the timing down to the same second the Colonel released his bloodlust.
This EMP attack is practically a fatal weakness for the Technomancers. With all of their mechanical augmentations and weapons getting fried right at the start. What's left standing couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag - much less are they a match for the guards. "Save the scorpion looking one for me, kill the rest. Consider this a practice exercise and only use your abilities. No weapons allowed" The Colonel's voice instructs the team.
The guards then start talking among themselves and they all reach the same conclusion, "Harvey, you got this right? This should be easier than taking candy from a baby for you." "Yeah I got it" one of the guards responds sarcastically. "Just sit back and take notes, I'll show you how a professional works."
Meanwhile the rest of the group is making bets on how long it will take him to finish and pulling up their watches to make sure nobody tries to cheat with the time.
Harvey then starts pointing, and wherever he points - screams and the sound of ripping flesh can be heard, Harvey was currently a level 30 who possessed the power of magnetism. What Harvey was doing was ripping the implants out of their body's while the Technomancers were still paralyzed from the EMP attack.
Before long he motions with his hand and a pile of warped scrap metal covered in blood and bone fragments is floating in the middle of the air. "Time 3 minutes and 16 seconds one of the guards reports." "Ah fuck" another guard moans. Colonel Rico grunts to shut them up before they start bitching any further "points for Efficiency, not really what I had in mind though. I want the rest of you to contact the ship, get the rest of the troops out here then start searching for anything of value." "Round up the rest of the workers and start interrogating them, try to see if there's anything worth a damn here. Oh and if any resist, execute them. -Yes sir!"
After giving his orders he realizes he is still holding the doctors heart in his hand. "Got too distracted with who was going to win the bet and forgot about this thing." He laughs before clenching his fist making the heart explode like a burst water balloon.
With the soldiers heading out to accomplish their mission the Colonel looks over at the last remaining Technomancer. "Now don't think I forgot about you, how about you answer the question now?" When he doesn't hear anything in reply he starts walking over to the Scorpion type technomancer and easily lifts him off the floor with one hand. "Not the talkative type are you?"
Then he grabs the mechanical third arm and physically rips it out of the mans back in a gory mess of squealing metal and spurting oil but still, the man himself doesn't make a sound. He then rips off both the mans arms but still there's nothing. Feeling frustrated he gives up on interrogating the man and stomps his skull. It explodes in a shower of metal gears.
"What he was actually just a Android? That EMP attack must have totally fried the damn thing." This sucks, I have no idea what I'm even looking for now and everyone here is dead..." After a brief look around and not knowing much about machinery, he realized this is just wasting his time.
Colonel Rico then starts slowly making his way back to his ship, he can see his troops are already in the process of rounding up what people were in the base originally, he should have a full report soon from his soldiers and then he can start to make his own report to send up. "Paperwork... I really hate paperwork" he sighs.
