Thankfully the light machine gun seemed to have survived the blast as I found it under a pile of metal scraps.
It looks battered but it was still functional at least.
I went ahead to equip it on my back again before moving towards the door at the other end of the hall.
At this point, the shouting and shooting coming from the other side was already loud enough that I could hear from this side of the door.
I was a little worried tht there were more people than I could handle but since it wasn't like I had a choice anyway, I pressed the button to open the doors and got ready to mow down whoever was on the other side.
There was a loud alarm sound coming from the speakers alerting the door being opened and I guess it was too much to expect a large door like this to open quickly and quietly.
I braced the light mahine gun and levelled the barrel at the door, my finger resting on the trigger.
