Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Page 253

Lofan sighed. Sure enough, Alpha's love for beer had been perfectly preserved.

After that, including himself, there were four old drunkards in their group. It was unclear whether the others had this tendency, but Dog might have it...

Alpha wanted to open another can, but after noticing Lofan's attitude, he thought about it and put it back in the small freezer.

This wasn't the only thing that gave Luo Fan a headache; what was even more annoying was the architect around her and... the measurement officer who was supervising her.

"Hey, Commander, it's better to relax a bit at times like this. There's a saying in Donghuang: 'If you're comfortable with it, then you'll be fine with it.'"

The architect lay casually on the bed that belonged to Luo Fan, his feet restlessly pacing around his lower abdomen.

Then, the surveyor grabbed his leg: "Mind your manners, architect. And also, that's called 'since you're here, make the best of it.'"

"Oh, whatever. Besides, don't talk about me. The captain of the Rebellion Squad is even more arrogant than me, believe it or not?"

The architect easily kicked his foot away from the other person's hand, showing that the surveyor hadn't used any force at all.

But she still said, "She is a sworn humanoid, and she means a lot to the Commander."

The metrologist's tone was usually quite cold, but this time, it seemed to waver slightly...?

The architect immediately became interested: "Oh~ she has a ring, are you jealous?"

After saying that, she raised her ring finger and struck a rap pose.

"Yo, look at this shiny silver ring, what is it? Do you have one? Do you?"

Right now, Miss Knight really wanted to strangle Miss Princess... She closed her eyes and pretended not to hear, but her clenched teeth still betrayed her thoughts.

The two of them really didn't treat Luo Fan like an outsider, and directly talked about the ring in front of him.

However, we do need to consider the issue of replacing the rings; I don't want the girls to feel as stifled as Wa-chan.

"Swish"

The cabin door opened, and the hunter stood impatiently in front of it: "Could you guys please keep your voices down?"

......

They arrived in Denver safely at 23:31 p.m. There was no time to rest, and the group continued on their way to the train station.

Following the predetermined route, bypassing the main entrance of the train station, they will encounter an "informant" in a certain alley.

It was very dark there, and it seemed that the power supply to the entire city was severely affected. In the alley, they saw a black man in casual clothes, wearing a baseball cap, walking quickly toward them.

"Yo, buddy, what are you doing in Denver? This place is in such a mess, why don't you move out sooner rather than later?"

The other person spoke to him in a flippant tone, but Luo Fan had no intention of cooperating at all.

"Go make a movie, SP13596."

He said coldly.

The girls are prepared for any changes to the agreement.

A terrifying silence...

"Damn, buddy, you really don't understand humor. And you're surrounded by so many beautiful women. Fine, come with me."

The other person waved his hand and then turned and walked towards the railway tracks.

The girls exchanged glances and silently followed behind their "informant," remaining vigilant at all times.

Looks like the code was matched...

Luo Fan briefly observed the surrounding environment and understood why the military dared to send people in here. Due to the large-scale power outage in the city, this alley was completely dark, and if you didn't come in, you could hardly see what was happening 30 meters away from the alley entrance.

At the end of the alleyway is the railing separating the railway tracks from the path.

Winter is not yet over, and the cold and gloomy atmosphere envelops this tragic city. The former prosperity is gone, the buildings are deserted, and only the army, monsters, and hackers are about to stage an unpredictable movie here.

The informant removed a piece of netting from the guardrail, creating a gap. They then entered a patch of weeds through this gap, reached the outside of the railway tracks, and walked along the tracks to the platform.

After walking about fifty meters, the informant suddenly turned back and whispered, "I'll take you this far. When you get to the platform, just give us your order number, and our people will take you in."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

"..."

The military is acting like a bunch of local bullies...

The group didn't proceed immediately; perhaps they needed to reconsider the situation...

"Commander, are you sure everything's alright? He's leaving now?"

JS9 instinctively put his hand behind his back, but then remembered that his weapon was hidden in Luo Fan's hand.

Luo Fan nodded: "Yes, but I have to act generously. You don't have to say anything, just leave the rest to me."

After confirming that the girls understood, Luo Fan led them closer to the platform, where the soldiers were already prepared.

The soldiers by the platform quickly noticed them, but unexpectedly, they didn't raise their guns to aim, or even show any sign of vigilance.

Luo Fan waved to show friendliness, and the other party waved back in response.

Why does it feel like the situation is much more favorable than I expected?

"Let's walk faster."

Luo Fan quickened his pace; he needed to finish the negotiations quickly and get rid of them...

"Oh, here for a ride?"

"Yes, we're a bit late. Hope we're on time?"

"No! The next car is just about to go in!"

The other person seems to be easy to talk to.

The soldier waved for Luo Fan and the others to get into the vehicle, but after everyone was on the platform, he realized the problem...

"Tsk tsk, buddy, if you're going in, why bring so many beauties instead of a few capable fighters?"

It's no wonder that any normal person would be curious about their team composition.

"Everyone goes in looking for a relaxing and exciting experience; I'm not the only one with that thought."

Luo Fan feigned nonchalance, quickly entered the car, and observed the situation inside...

354 Going Dark

The passageway was piled high with crates and other supplies, with only a few soldiers sitting on top of them, idly playing cards.

It looks like these trucks are going to transport goods, and the personnel are just responsible for confirming the status of the supplies.

When Luo Fan entered, the soldiers didn't react much. But as the footsteps became more numerous and chaotic, when they turned around for the second time, their eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had discovered some jewel, and they stared intently at him.

It took them a while to notice that the girls were sitting with Luo Fan.

"Bro, it costs four hundred dollars to send one person here. You have more than a dozen people, and so many girls. If I were you, I would take this money and go to a bar with them to have a good time."

One of the soldiers joked that it seemed they had misunderstood the girls' relationship with him.

But, even if that's what he said, if it weren't for the fact that he was a member of the military and they would be the ones to help him leave safely, Luo Fan might have laughed and punched him in the face.

"Those who want to go in are looking for excitement. They've gotten tired of playing with the jalapeños in the store, so they want to go in and find something new."

For now, I can only endure it and pretend to be indifferent.

I thought the other person was just saying it casually and didn't intend to have a deeper conversation, but another soldier came up with another comment.

"You'd better be careful when you go in. You're a bunch of women carrying just a few bags. If you get bitten, you'd better be careful where you are, otherwise it will be a pity if we find out too late."

Luo Fan maintained his fake smile, but the girls' expressions were starting to turn sour. If the lights inside the vehicle hadn't been dim, the soldiers might have noticed their displeasure much earlier.

He had changed into casual clothes, pretending to be a young person out having fun, but his outstanding appearance still drew attention from others...

"Yeah, exciting? I'm just afraid that once you go in, the monsters outside will scream even louder than you, hahaha!"

More people joined in on the soldier's joke, seemingly getting happier with each remark.

“Heh, heh…”

Luo Fan sat in his chair, responding to them with a faint laugh, silently memorizing their appearances.

Once inside, don't let us see you there...

......

"Have fun! If you get scared or your legs go weak, come back right away! We'll pick you up and drop you off!"

"Alright, you don't need to worry about it!"

After getting off the train, the group was escorted out of the train station by several soldiers, and then quickly turned a corner and hid in an apartment.

Fortunately, the military's security measures in the surrounding area were quite effective, and there were relatively few zombies encountered nearby, which could be largely ignored, making the subsequent operations easier.

"click"

Victor picked the lock, and everyone entered the apartment. They quickly checked the interior and opened their backpacks to prepare.

"Fire, girls!"

Luo Fan took out the tablets and picked them up one by one, including several heavy ones that he almost dropped to the ground.

"Barrett, metrologist, look at the map and plan the route. AA12, Alpha, confirm the signal status. The rest of you, keep watch around."

Lovan quickly issued orders, and the operation began in an orderly manner. Barrett took out a map from his backpack and began to analyze it with the metrologist. Alpha began to check the signal status with the outside world, while Lovan continued to distribute equipment.

"Flashbangs, signal flares, illumination flares, smoke grenades, fragmentation grenades, incendiary grenades, various grenade launchers, grenades..."

Luo Fan laid out all the equipment on the table, and the girls took the equipment they needed according to their own requirements. The three from Ironblood Manufacturing, along with Adeline, already had their own dedicated equipment, so they only selected tools such as grenades, flares, and flashbangs.

Since none of the humanoids in this mission had their own grenade launchers, Lovan had to distribute them himself.

AA12 suddenly approached, his face grave: "Commander, no, there's signal interference. All communication devices are unable to send messages outside the quarantine zone."

"As expected..."

The military definitely needs to maintain secrecy while ensuring that its own personnel can communicate with each other, so it has to use interference to enclose the quarantine zone.

With their capabilities, it might be difficult for them to break through the military's interference. Apart from themselves, there doesn't seem to be anyone here with strong electronic warfare capabilities. If Dandley were here, she might be able to break through the interference or create a specific frequency band to escape the shielding range.

"Alright, we don't need to contact the outside world for now anyway. We'll figure out a solution later. What about the route? Barrett, how's it going?"

Barrett said seriously, "Commander, we are currently located in the outer city of Denver. We still have dozens of kilometers to go before we can get closer to the interior. If we want to get to Raccoon City, which you mentioned, we have to head south after arriving in downtown Denver and continue along Englewood. That's more than 60 kilometers away, and we're not sure if we'll encounter military checkpoints or anything else along the way..."

After hearing Barrett's report, Luo Fan's expression immediately worsened.

"Tch, damn military. They said they'd send us in, but that was all they did. We're on our own from here on out..."

However, it cannot be ruled out that there might be something special in the central area that the military did not send them there. Perhaps there are still some things worth seeing in downtown Denver.

"Okay, now we have a target, girls. Head towards downtown Denver, stay hidden, and quickly change your clothes and masks. We have a job to do."

Changing clothes and wearing masks was also to prevent the military from recognizing them. After all, they were brought in, beaten up by the military, and then sent out again—how could they possibly...?

This time, the girls' equipment was different from what Luo Fan had when he was still in Raccoon City. After all, with the resources and connections, it was still possible to provide the girls with a complete outfit.

At least the black-themed tactical kits are still available, with an overall style similar to the Defiant Squad and AK Alpha.

After quickly changing his clothes, Luo Fan threw his casual clothes back into the tablet, checked that all the small toys he had taken out were put away, and after confirming the ammunition situation, it was time to prepare to set off.

"NTW, how's the situation in the neighborhood?"

NTW, who was in charge of observing the neighborhood, turned around: "The neighborhood is very clean, with only a few zombies and no trace of the military passing by. Perhaps both are concentrated in the central area."

"Understood, alright... Dark Tide Squad, Going Dark!"

......

355 Speech

"Grey, do you remember how you used to give speeches?"

"Of course, teacher."

"Then enjoy your new identity."

"You too."

Outside the meeting room, Morido tidied up Mrs. Grey's clothes, brushed her bangs aside, and stuffed a USB drive into her grenade.

"Go."

"Ah."

Grey is still trying to recapture the feeling she had when she was a human researcher...
