Chapter 1591 Lord Of Mount Sunn -Part 4
Jin eventually met up with the entire squad of Grey Bears to discuss the possibility of chasing the assistant down. "I will want to note that it has been already more than half a day since he fled so the chances of finding him would be extremely slim. Archduke Dyke would have a better time setting up checkpoints at various cities to find him but that would undoubtedly raise lots of suspicions for the Imperial Family to take note of."
"Urgh, then finding that assistant would be more than just a hassle," Diaz said with disgust. Everyone knew how terribly flawed search and destroy operations were especially when you have no idea where the target is.
"The only hope we have is unfortunately the team of security experts and investigators that I had ordered to search for him when the ruckus started. They are the closest we have of having a trail of some sort." Jin said even though he knew that he has the hope of relying upon the AI Administration for help though the System and Jin had agreed unanimously not to ask for it unless the situation was extremely bleak. After all, the AI Administration wanted excitement and chaos to happen in its simulation space for data collection.
If the assistant did succeed, it would be beneficial for the AI Administration as compared to helping Jin since that would reduce the chances of chaos in its simulation space. So, there was no use asking the AI administration for help when the assistant's action had not been ascertained whether he was merely scared of the consequences or he is really in cahoots with the Imperial Family.
"So I like to emphasise this is a wild goose chase. The assistant might be an innocent man and for all we know, he is just dumb scared shitless from all that is happening. I mean, have you seen how Denise controlled all those security Mechanoids to round up the researchers? The assistant would have thought that he will be executed on sight." Jin commented.
"Therefore, I only need a two -no, one volunteer for this mission."
"Isn't it standard protocol to work in pairs?" Yinn raised up her hand and interrupted.
"Yeah, because one of the pair is mandatory," Jin replied while looking at Click and she clicked her tongue. "Too bad, you are the only one who can create a scouting mechanical beast to search."
"If that's the case, I will move out with her." Diaz volunteered after hearing Jin's decision. After hearing what Click and Tellie had gone through, Diaz felt that she had not been doing much compared to them. She was the frontliner, the main executor for the Grey Bear Squad and yet her supports are doing much better than she could have ever done. That was why she needs to go for this search and destroy mission.
"Very well. Diaz and Click go to Diamondz Corps and get some ammunition as well as for Click to create her robot. Oh, and please bring more clips. It might be against the standard for a search and destroy but considering how he worked in the Research facility and might be connected to the Imperial Family, you will not know what you are up against."
"Then I suggest Diaz to bring a melee weapon too." Lynn said but Diaz realised something and interjected.
"If we are going to Diamondz Corps, can you ask Denise whether I can be retrofitted with new parts? I saw how Lynn fought and since she said that having a few melee options would be optimal, I figured adding a few additional boosters to my legs and arms while reinforcing them would be a good idea... and a melee weapon."
"Hm. Will that take a lot of time?" Jin asked since he had no idea how fast the reequipping would be until the System replied.
"Diamondz Acting CEO is on the line. She had accepted Diaz's request."
"Hi Jin, I got Diaz's mechanoid model from the System and her series has a modular system which allowed her to remove parts easy."
"I thought all mechanoid models have that function."
"These days, most Mechanoids do and thankfully, she is part of them. I can requisition reinforced arms and legs that have a small jet booster to allow for better impact but that is not the most top of the line product as customised ones will still need a couple of days. If you and Diaz are okay with it, I will go ahead and proceed with that request."
"We will take that." Jin looked at Diaz momentarily which she seemed rather satisfied as well.
"Great. Other than that, we will prepare the armoury section for Click and Diaz to take the neccessary equipment. I will also prepare a vehicle for them."
"Excellent but I like to request the rest to be restock their ammunition as well." Jin said which the acting CEO agreed readily before going off screen.
"Looks like this mission is truly a go. As for the rest, we will scout Daimon city for a bit. We need to check on the city's entry and exit points as well as the nearest dungeons around here."
"Why? What's the matter?" Yinn asked and Jin smiled slowly.
"I have a hunch. Though I just hope that this hunch is a meaningless hunch and that I was overly paranoid. Other than that, take it as an opportunity to have some sightseeing while Click and Diaz search for the assistant. If we are done by then, we will return to Mount Sunn first and assess the damage. There's lot to do when we get back to Mount Sunn so take this as a breather before we are into heavier work." Jin said and the rest acknowledged.
In a matter of minutes, the Grey Bears moved out to Diamondz Corps to resupply before heading to the objectives that Jin had mentioned. And the commander desperately hoped that what he felt was as a hunch was indeed meaningless.
