"The only soldiers outside are the main building of the old castle underground. It is very likely that the opponent's main force exists, so don't take it lightly."

　　 John still whispered.

　　 Everyone promised: "Yes."

　　 speechless all the way.

　　 The corridor to the underground entrance also has a large number of armed guards.

　　 The individual weapons of this group of armed guards cannot cause effective damage to Thor's Hammer and CMC at all.

　　 Ordinary warheads are either intercepted by the energy shield or bounce off the CMC's outer armor.

　　 The twelve people came to the third underground floor of the castle unobstructed according to the signs given by Cortana.

　　 John looked around through the helmet display and found that the space here is wide.

　　 is not like the dark and damp underground of the castle in the movie, but the square walls and floor tiles with bright lighting equipment.

　　 Standing in front of everyone is a rectangular gate with a height of four meters and a width of four meters.

　　 The emblem of the Shining Star Church is printed on the gate.

The main body of the 　　 education emblem is a six-pointed star composed of two equilateral triangles.

　　 In the center of the six-pointed star is a humanoid with open arms and three symmetrical wings on the back, which cannot distinguish between genders.

　　 This creature should be what Xia called the "God of Light".

　　 Carl approached the console on the left side of the gate, looked at the broken screen, and shook his head helplessly: "Can't open it manually."

　　 "Cortana." John looked at the gate in front of him and asked, "Can it be cracked from a distance."

　　 "Wait a minute, give me three minutes." Cortana replied.

　　 But Mellen put the rotating Gauss gun in his hand aside, walked slowly to the gate, and just watched it for a moment.

　　 said: "Cortana, don't waste time, leave it to me."

　　 Talking, Myron knelt down and squatted down, then put his hands and ten fingers into the tiny gap between the gate and the floor tiles.

　　 Then...

　　 "Get me started!"

　　 "Crack—Boom—!"

　　 I saw the gate made a piercing metal sound at first, and after holding on for a while, he couldn't withstand the great strength of Myron, and was raised to a height of three meters.

　　 is enough for the Spartans and the heavy armor to pass.

　　 Seeing this, John waved his hand forward and ordered: "Go."

　　 With the support of Myron's Juli, John and Carl led nine heavy soldiers through the gate.

　　 Seeing that the troops passed smoothly, Myron also relieved his strength and rolled forward and moved away from under the gate.

　　 "Boom!" With a sound, the gate was quickly lowered.

　　 "Cortana, notify the follow-up troops, ready to forcibly break that gate." John reminded.

　　 "Yes, Chief Sergeant."

　　 After everyone passed the gate, they continued to walk through a corridor similar to some kind of laboratory, rushing directly under the castle.

　　 When he encountered a corner, John suddenly raised his hand to stop.

　　 Because of motion detection, there are a lot of red dots at the corner, which means there are hidden enemies there.

　　 Immediately, John used individual communication to command: "4, increase the power of the energy shield and prepare to rush out with me.

　　 Heavy soldiers, following us. "

　　 "Yes." Following the order, the three Spartans rushed through the corner first.

　　 "Papa Papa!!"

　　 As soon as they turned the corner, the three Johns were attacked by intensive barrage.

　　 "Boom! Boom!"

　　 Although the energy shield successfully intercepted the opponent's warheads, the moment those warheads touched the energy shield, a low-intensity explosion occurred.

　　 Shellless blasting bomb.

　　At this time, the soldiers who attacked the Spartans also emerged.

　　 in pitch-black airtight attire, equipped with an exoskeleton, holding a pulse rifle similar to M41A.

　　 Various characteristics point to this group of soldiers as elite members of the church.

　　 However, it is impossible to stop the Spartans from using pulse guns and advanced individual equipment.

　　 "Ri-ta-ta-ta-!"

　　 Myron, as a tank, rushed to the forefront, holding a multi-barreled rotating Gauss machine gun, and started shooting wildly under Myron's control.

　　 "Puff! Puff!"

　　 The spike bullet pierced the group of elite armors and combat uniforms, with powerful kinetic energy, and flew back even with the soldiers who were shot.

　　 John and Carl on the left and right sides of Myron also used the guns in their hands to shoot the caught fish.

　　 The heavy soldiers following the Spartans used the CMC's auxiliary shooting function to fire at the elites who were still standing in the distance.

　　 Without the energy shield created by Halsey, or the AT shield, individual equipment has no solution when facing spikes.

　　 Even if this group of elites, close to a hundred people, has pain masking, and has reached the peak of human response and combat capabilities, they still cannot escape the fate of being strangled.

　　 But this group of elites still makes the heavy soldiers feel numb all over.

　　Because the elites will instinctively counterattack as long as the head and upper body are still alive after being dismembered by the nail bullet.

　　 There is a qualitative difference between these elites and the armed guards outside the castle.

　　 "Tap!"

　　 After Karl shot to deal with the last surviving elite, he couldn't help but sigh in the communication: "The combat power of this group of people is much more than that of the UNSC special command."

　　 "Ho." Mellen snorted coldly, replacing the chain with a new one, disdainfully said:

　　 "No matter what, this church has the nature of a terrorist organization, and it must be eradicated."

　　 "A-003 is right." John nodded.

　　 He continued to advance inside and ordered: "The elite intercepted here, indicating that we are not far from the main target, and everyone is keeping up."

"Yes."

　　————————

　　...

　　 A few minutes later.

The 　　 blue team led nine heavy soldiers, destroying all kinds of defensive automatic weapons, and came to the huge space directly below the castle.

　　 There are hundreds of large petri dishes~lightnovelpub.net~ as well as various medical instruments, and other equipment that a biological laboratory should have.

　　 The petri dish is filled with some kind of transparent liquid, and there are boys and girls around the age of fourteen or five, with various needles inserted in their lengths.

　　 According to the geographical location, this large laboratory is located in the mountain directly below the castle, and there are several artificially excavated tunnels.

　　 The Shining Star Church should be able to conduct various secret human experiments here by using these tunnels extending in all directions.

　　 in the air corridor of the laboratory.

　　 John lowered his head and looked down, watching the researchers who were running away in a hurry and belonged to the Shining Star Church.

　　 used the newsletter to report: "Boss, general, discovered the experimental base of the Shining Star Church.

　　 speculated that the main function here should be to transform the human body and produce superhuman soldiers. "

　　 "Received." William's voice soon came through the communication and said:

　　 "The general and I have learned the general situation through your individual cameras.

　　 Your main task now is to arrest those researchers, make sure that all the data stored in the base are not destroyed, and wait for the arrival of the technicians.

　　 As for the task of exploring the tunnel, it will be carried out by the follow-up troops. "

　　 "Yes, boss."

　　 John, who was instructed, lightly nodded his head, placed his hand downward, and commanded in a low voice: "Blue team, heavy soldiers, capture those researchers as much as possible."

"Yes."
