" Vanguard, take care of the medic team. Don't let enemy approach them."
"Defenders and guards, fend off enemy attacks and finish them if you could."
" Casters, focus on supporting the guards on eliminating the enemies and snipers, take care of the escaping enemies."
"Don't lower your defenses and stay focus in combat!" Dr. Yuuki took command of the operators. His orders were obeyed by the operators with absolute respect.
....
The battle began to finish after a few moments.
"This is the last one!"
"Ugh!" the final soldier collapsed to the ground after receiving a few damage.
"Target eliminated. The enemy squad is retreating!" a guard operator confirming. "Dr. Yuuki's commanding was perfect, just like Amiya said. How reassuring!"
"See, that wasn't too bad, right?" Amiya smiling happily.
"Doctor, compared to everything you've been through, this is a walk in the park."
An enemy soldier still awake in the middle of the conversation. All operators quickly beware of his presence.
"Why are you here...You're not from Ursus..." the soldier coughed heavily while talking. "We won't...let you get in way of our duties!" He was holding a knife and was about to kill an operator infront of him.
A woman come from the behind and kicked the soldier.
"Don't even think about it!"
"Instructor!"
"What are you spacing out for? You almlst got yourself killed!" Instructor Dobermann scolded him.
"I'm... I'm sorry!" the guard operator apologized.
"Quick! Get back into formation!" the instructor commands.
"Dobermann! You made it!" Amiya relieved.
"It's an emergency. My team was attacked by Reunion as well. I rushed over to join you as soon as I could." Dobermann explained
"Why would Reunion attack us...?"
"An organization made up of the Infected... I've always thought they were a bit extreme... an niw they've resorted to violence, and in an Ursus city no less? That's a death wish." Dobermann seriously smirked.
" The situation is only going to get more chaotic from here on out. Amiya, we need to leave Chernobog right now. " she suggested.
" Okay. We've already rescued Doctor, so we can retreat according to plan. " Amiya agreed.
" And this is Dr. Yuuki?"
"Yes."
"Dr. Yuuki, you probably don't know who I am, but you know Amiya. For your safety—"
"No,no." Amiya cut the conversation.
"Um, Dobermann, Doctor isn't doing very well right now. To put it simply, Doctor...has amnesia." Amiya explained carefully.
"Amnesia? What are you going to do now? Weren't you planning to transfer leadership to—"
"Doctor still has the capacity to command. At least, I've confirmed that from the previous battle."
".... I can't bring myself to trust a stranger easily. But I trust you, Amiya." Dobermann still in her serious state.
"I understand."
"Dr. Yuuki, I am Dobermann, captain of Op Team E1. We are going to escort you from Chernobog, which is the Ursus City we're currenty in, back to Rhodes Island."
"We're in an abandoned facility in Chernobog and should now head west. But...since we're cut off from Dr. Kal'tsit, Dobermann and I have to lead our seperate teams westward to a rendezvous point before confiming our signal to retreat." Amiya explain carefully.
"That is, assuming everything goes according plan. " Amiya concludes the explaining.
"It'd be nice if things went that smoothly." says Dobermann. "Today is the last opportunity to rescue you from here, Dr. Yuuki."
"But... I've a bad feeling about this."
"A-Amiya!" a medic appeared.
"What's the matter?"
"It's...it's a call from Rhodes Island!"
"Are our communications back on? Is it Dr. Kal'tsit?" Amiya confirming.
"Sorry, but no quite." a voice from the communicating device suddenly heard.
"PRTS (Primitive Rhodes Island Terminal Services) ..?"
"The Emergency Neural Connection Request System was activated. Interference has also been detected from Rhodes Island's end, and only partial Neural Network connection is possible." PRTS explained throughly.
"Currently unable to establish communication with Kal'tsit, who has yet not return to Rhodes Island. Your safety is confirmed; therefore my mission is now complete." PRTS confirms.
"This piece of..." Dobermann snapped. "Do we really have time for this?"
"If you do not need to connect to Rhodes Island, communication will be severed momentarily." PRTS says. "I'm sincerely sorry for having interrupted your party."
"Wait, wait! Don't hang up, I need your help still." Amiya quickly stopping PTRS from severing the communication.
"Dobermann, Doctor still needs some assistance."
"I know, but make it quick." Dobermann agreed half-heartedly.
"Identify verification required. Select verification method." PRTS starting its system.
"Ah Doctor, please say something..."
...
Dr. Yuuki only touched the interface on the device.
"I am not sute why you did not speak, but the action of touching the interface is sufficient—" PRTS verifiying.
—Fingerprint match found. Verification complete. Security clearance :8
Welcome home, Dr. Yuuki.
