Chapter 6 - Ch 1.2: Intel Gathering

--12:46 PM--

--Earlier, somewhere 300 Miles East from JFB Kolwat--

--Bird Eye-2, TOH-280 Tritolor scout aircraft, crew: 6, tasked in gathering of information and map out--

A pretty nice green forest, and clear sky with burbs chirping around and animals hunting each other, and a OH-280 Scout Valor Flying low but not very low, and for the familiar V-280 or the OH- 280, the Valor's scout version, Flying above in the speed of 420 km/h, a pretty fast one, and the Valor is pretty much more of an assault and scout helicopter because of it's speed and having a Stealth version of it with some prototype invisibility mode for special operations which is very expensive so it's close to being abandoned but the invisibility was successful eventually and it changed the rotors to jet engines for more stealthy approach and having electronic warfare tech to disrupt signals and other shit that would expose them, and for the scout version has more observation electronics stuff and a bit more bigger, and it can carry 2 unguided rocket pods and one 20mm GAU M61-Vulcan mixed with Anti personell rounds and AP rounds for defense off course and hell it's one of the standard assault loadouts for the Valors and it's similar for the attack helicopters loadout.

The Commander of the 6 man crew is 1st Lt. Gary Chang, a Chinese-American intelligence officer on board with his chosen and trusted buddies with him, and crew as well, and he was ordered to map out the area using the 3D map out tech FROM NASA And hell thank YOU AEGIS international for making all the toys is what they would say, as well as other other countries saying the same thing.

And Chang is just sitting down and viewing on the screen of a computer installed on the Valor's back, generating terrain, while two other soldiers keeps the cameras on track so it can keep copying the terrain while the other soldier checks the status of their systems just in case any errors happens, and inside they're all just silent.... And it's kinda tight in there.

"Lieutenant, Chang" a sergeant called him, a tech specialist, sounding like he has a question, he was sitting down besides a comms and air force aviation specialist doing his usual job whilst he does too but he doesn't turn his head around.

"Yeah? What is it?" he asked as he turned his head back to see the tech specialist doing shit as he raised both eyebrows.

"Can we talk about something while we're just flying over a damn forest trying to have a machine to map out shit" he asked as Chang came into thinking about it since they're mostly doing nothing and shit and mostly just looking at screens and numbers and random codes that some of them doesn't understand what.

"Yeah we can, but what are we all gonna talk about?" Chang asked as the the tech specialist started thinking of what their gonna talk about.

"Anything that won't make us bored and shit, I mean like, how's our life before or what we do..... I don't know, anything, so we won't get more bored?" he answered his suggestion, and Chang knows that their job is kind of boring and we'll they are all silent inside the Valor, and pretty much just staring at computer screens.

"Well you have a point, I mostly only talk about important shit so sure, let's talk shit" But whatever they might face in this world is a danger, and knowing what they're facing would be a priority as well as trying to get back home.... But for every soldier back at Kolwat, they all don't think they all won't be home for a while.

--12:58 PM--

--Unkown Dirt Highway, 489 Miles East from JFB Kolwat--

--The Spear Hero's party--

A random dirt road, and a random group of armed dudes on a horse dragged carriage and... Oh its the blonde Idiot's party, and you know who it is.

As always. Motoyasu is looking happy of what he did before and the stupid shit he has done. And he sounds like a fucking pedophile the time he saw Filo and ignoring the fact that Myne was fucking racist and ignoring that there's slavery all over the place in the city yet he still ignored it like it's just nothing.

And hell it sounds like he has history back on his own world like something like, predatory of a kid or sexual assault or just a shit pervert or something, or neither, or just a dude stuck in the fantasy he has on his stupid ass head, but son of a bitch fucked a lot of girls back at Japan didn't he? Well truth is Malty and her friend fucked him as well but not knowing he's just being manipulated and he doesn't prioritize the bros but he prioritizes the hoes like Malty and some other bitches, and literally Naofumi just wishes the UN is here or either any other government to the point that he won't suffer a lot, which would actually come true.... And it's obvious since a whole JFB was transported to this corrupted world off course.

And for now he accepted a quest of killing or getting rid of some Bandits thats encamped inside the forest.

"Man I'm starting to love this progress" Motoyasu said retardingly chearfully while one dude in his part that's driving the carriage is pretty much weirded out by him, since he sounds retarded of course on some occasions and all mighty hero style of course. And all his party members just talking to each other about something.

Motoyasu got up from where he's sitting as he heads over to the dude driving the carriage.

"Hey" Motoyasu tapped his shoulder giving him a bit of jump of fear from what he did as he kept his eye on the road.

"Y-yes Spear hero?" he asked, as the carriage kept going.

"Let's take stop and take a break, and we almost forgot to feed the horses" Motoyasu said which he raised his eyebrows realizing he almost forgot to feed the horses, he then nodded as he started to keep driving whilst finding a spot.

But for a little thing did Motoyasu knows, Chang's crew is gonna pass by way above their heads.

*Trrtrrrrttrrrrrtrtttrrttrrrrrrrrrrttrrr*

A faint chopping sound was heard, and the sound was a quick chopping, sounding like a helicopter which Motoyasu recognized, for sure he thinks there's a civilization more advanced than Melromarc but he doesn't believe it since he's in some "Magical anime world blah blah blah shit" but still he would since it's getting louder and louder, causing everyone in his part to get confused, and for a little while the chopping gets even more louder which made Motoyasu to come up to the carriage driver.

"Hey! Stop the carriage!" he immediately shouted as the horses then immediately stop on its tracks as Motoyasu quickly steps out of the carriage and looked at the sky, looking all around confused.

"Spear hero what's going on!?" the dude driving asked in confusion as he fell down from he's seat and stood up with his double axes out.... But when he looks at his back, he sees Naofumi looking at the sky in confusion, looking like he recognizes something.

"Spear hero?" he called him as he looked him in confusion, he then looks at the sky but he sees nothing.... The other party members got out too looking at Motoyasu in confusion of why he is so weird now.

"Motoyasu? What's going on?" one of the female members, a cute one called him.

*TRRRRTRTRRRTRRRRRRRRTTTRRRRRRTRRRRR*

Then a sound started to get louder as they now widen in confusion and now knowing why Motoyasu looks like he hears something, and actually knowing why he looks like he recognize that sound of fast chopping.

"You guys hear that right?" Motoyasu then asked to confirm if he's not the only on hearing it as he kept looking for the sound in the sky.

"A-actually we do" the driver of Tha carriage answered as everyone started to look at the sky for something, but having all their weapons out and being on high alert, but for Motoyasu..... No.

And the sound started to he closer and closer, and the sound changing to chops started to get louder, yet heard by everyone in the party.

"There's no way that could be a helicopter I'm hearing" he said, but still he might have theorized that it could be some lost army chopper from some country back from his earth or some kingdom having a much advance technology ranging somewhere to the modern ages or the Cold War or either the Vietnam times... But still he was unsure of what.

"What's a helicapter... Motoyasu?" another one of the female party members asked, and Malty kind off getting interested of what a helicapter is.

"It's a-woah!"

*TRRR-TUKUTUKUTUKUT*

A black figure Unkown to them passed by above their heads pretty fast and with the wind it pushed down causing some of them to stumble, and the Unkown figure to them was in all black and Motoyasu and some of the party members saw it, and yet a lot of his party members being confused of what they saw.... Except for Motoyasu.

"Was that.... Americans? Wait no... Blackhawks doesn't have wings" he tried to guess, he barely saw the whole thing but he only saw the under part of the aircraft in all black and looking like a shape of a blackhawk, but with two fixed wings with two rotor engines, sounding like a V-22 Osprey. And Myne hearing what he said caught her interest of what the blackhawk thing he said, if it was some dragon or something, but Unkown to her it's some machine she doesn't know belonging to a powerful military force from all four hero's home worlds, known as the United States of America, or either countries who has those Valors too since the US exported them to some countries like having it's NATO version and some given to some middle eastern countries and Asian countries, but for the other heroes worlds, the Valor may not exist, or not in service, or neither anything.

Everyone got back in their normal stance as Motoyasu looked at the direction of where the aircraft was going as he looked in shock.

"There could be no way some modern stuff is here, this isn't even cyberpunk, is this turning to Sci-fi?"

After the "small skirmish" between a US Recon Unit and some group of uniformed midieval clad idiots finished, Prawly and Norvik now started to walk towards a group of demi-humans villagers for some question and ask on who their leader is or their chief and who actually rules the land that they're standing on, while some of the aid soldiers from the trucks was called in for assistance immediately since one villager was injured and it was not the reckless dude, it was the reckless dude's brother who is being treated by Elijah and the other three aid dudes started distributing some food and water, and well.... the village looks all ok enough though, maybe the aid boys thought the village was fucked or something, well while shit is a big disaster back in their base, good thing the JFB has a big stockpile of ammo and food atleast, and the personnel's panic of not being able to contact family members anymore.

But feeding almost a hundred thousands of soldiers would be a nightmare, but atleast some of them were former farmers, so they'll have a farmland, a pretty big one, and now they're gonna need to convert some of their unused vehicles as farm equipment..... And they should rather get in contact with a friendly country, or kingdom and trade for food in exchange for good infrastructure.

And for both of them, is to gonna start asking who's the chief or leader of the village, so they can start gathering all the Intel they can so they can compile it back to base for confirmation. And then for a while the Aid dudes will start trying to do their best to help for anything the village needs like repairs or something, or food and medical assistance.

While both of them was walking to a group of villagers, Norvik turned his head back looking like he has something to say to his Recon Group.

"Hey guys! Me and Prawly will be gathering Intel so all of ya do the shit you do when your bored" he said as one of his boys gave a thumbs up while he and Prawly just continues to walk towards the group of villagers.

The group of demi-human villagers consisting of men and women saw both him and Prawly approaching them, and they're quite unsure if they might demand something..... Bad.

"Hey umm...." Norvik then turned to Prawly, unsure if they understand him as he slipped his right hand under his IHPS helmet and scratched the back of his head whilst some of the villagers looking at both of them in confusion, and some of them ain't very trustful for humans, since the shitting discrimination they always expirience on a lot of human beings out here, but it was astonishing for them to see a bunch of humans protected them from some uniformed clad men and actually heard a conversation about how shitty is slavery as well as racism.... But also hearing some of them using slurs to express their thoughts.

"Can the locals speak English?" he asked but the villagers understands him well but they don't know what English he is talking about.

"Yes basically, English is the common tounge in this world, from what the locals back at the other village said" he answered, and yet surprisingly simple enough and good to know that the world they're in has a universal language that's basically the same back on earth, And the reason why English or the simple tounge in this world is called the simple tounge is because it's easy to learn obviously.

"Oh ok" he said as he then turned his head back to the villagers looking at both of them.

"Uhhh... Hi there, I'm Sergeant Norvik and this is 1st Sergeant Prawly, it's nice to meet you guys" he greeted and introduced his self as well as introducing Prawly, some of the female villager on the group was quite nervous, but yet hearing the sergeant word makes them think it's their name but some thinks it's their rank.

"Both of us are officers of our respected men and our mission is to Recon some of the surrounding areas and gather information soo... Do you know who's your leader here, or village Chief?" he asked, some of the villagers sighed in relief, mostly females did sighed in relief, well both US soldiers noticed that also giving the obvious reason of how fucked up the world is.

"Anything wrong?" Prawly then asked, as he looked at one of the quite nervous villagers.

"N-no it's just....." one of the female villagers, a pretty and uhh.... Curvy one, with a pair of racoon ears, so a female racoon demi-human tried to explain something but from her tone it sounds pretty bad, and for both Prawly and Norvik, they know how some dudes ask for some girl to fuck and sleep with without their consent, and if they refuse then bad shit will happen, like death and shit.

"Woah woah, it's fine it's fine, we know" Norvik said in a comforting tone, and they pretty much understand that, but irritating to know.

"We want to talk to your chief if uhh.... You know" he asked again, and grinned awkwardly for a second as the villagers looked at each other if weather they should trust them or not but still they saved them, but at least they could pay something back.

"The village chief is at his home, right next to our biggest building, you won't miss it sir Norvik" one of the male villagers answered.

"Thank you sir" Norvik thanked as both him and Prawly immediately Heads to the said biggest building of the village to find the chief's house on its side, but the time Norvik thanked the villager and used the sir word made them dumbfounded of his respect, they're all usually called peasants, commoners and shit and mostly the officers or soldiers from other kingdoms who are human supremacists or neither just disrespects all of them, but for a country filled with both humans and demi-humans called Shieldfreeden was like good to them.... But they've never seen and heard an actual humans respecting them atleast like Prawly and Norvik, as well their men's friendly manners.

The two looks around to find the biggest building the village had, just like what they were told, while some of the members of both recon teams either does shit that doesn't bore them, or either talking to the locals or helping out the aid dudes.

"Oh hey, it's just right there" Norvik said as they just stopped on their tracks, the building was already in front of them which was the middle of the village over like 30 meters away, and a house right besides it.

"Well that's pretty convenient" Prawly said, and it's pretty nice to just immediately see the building in the middle probably, and the village layout looks like a plus seperating the four which is pretty organized for them but yet they haven't seen the whole place yet as the two then started to walk towards the house right next to the building... Or maybe the village's assembly building or something, coming across scared or interested demi-human villagers inside their homes peeking on them to either see what's going on and what happened and who they are, and wondering what and why are they here, since for the whole discrimination between humans and demi-humans is pretty high well some of the villagers would rather kill them or either be very wary of them, but looking around to see any other soldiers got them confused, they thought a whole group of them would rather go house to house to steal some of their goods and other shit but no, they only saw two of them walking in the middle of the street heading to their assembly building or either the village chief's house and it could be keen for them to think they could be friendly but no, for their experience to other humans was pretty bad.

While the two was approaching the Chief's house they saw an old man, talking to two villagers armed with short sword, seemingly the first trained militiamen in the village, and Prawly and Norvik guessed he was the chief but they're not sure if the old man is but he's the only more old looking man they only saw in the village.

The two started to approach the old man as they saw the ears of the three to go up a little, listining to something, and it's obviously them, the three then looked at them, the two Militia looking dudes raised an eyebrow about them, except the elderly man.

The two US soldiers got a little closer

"Hello sir, I'm 1st Sergeant Prawly and this is Sergeant Norvik, we're from a reco-scout unit from the US military, uhh.... Are you the chief of this village?" Prawly asked and waved at the old demi-human in a friendly manner, but hearing the word US got them confused and made them Rais an eyebrow, they've never hear of any US, but they think that they could be a mercenary group or something, and for the sergeant words, they think it's their name but probably a rank for them.

"Yes I am, I assume you two have questions?" the old man guessed and the two Sergeants nodded with a yes while the two militiamen just glares in intimidation but the two Amrican NCOs just doesn't give a shit and ignores they're like their not here.

"Yessir we do" Norvik answered.

"Okay sir Norvik, sir Prawly, can we get inside my house and discuss about your questions" the elder offered but it sounds kind enough though, but they can just stand outside and discuss everything but he's an old man, they know they won't be able to just stand still for a whole maybe 30 minutes or so, but there's no way on denying the offer.

"Yeah sure thing sir, we appreciate it" they accepted the offer and made the old man smile from the answer.

"Ok, come on in" he said as he opened the door of his house and entered, and the two soldiers followed as well as the two militiamen did too.
