"Wait... wait! M4, send over all the pictures that SOP2 sent you guys last time so I can take a look!"
M16 thought of something, then suddenly stopped in her tracks. While surveying the surroundings, she beckoned towards M4A1, who was walking ahead.
This surrounding scenery looked very familiar.
She always had a feeling that she had seen it somewhere before. A doll's feeling usually isn't wrong; if she felt she had seen it, then she had seen it before. If it was just something that she had seen inadvertently, she didn't have too much of an impression of it.
Hearing M16's words, M4A1 sent her the photo from her cell phone while twisting her head to survey the surroundings.
It didn't matter if she didn't look, but when she did, she realized that the terrain of this place and the location of the trees all looked very similar to the photo that SOP2 had sent over earlier!
Receiving the photos, M16 mmediately started comparing them. RO also came to the side, observing the scenery in the photos.
"Look at that tree, the knothole in that third branch, and five meters away, the broken tree!" M16 looked at it for a few moments, and then her eyes lit up, pointing at a few trees not far away.
"Hey? This? This looks like it..."
M4A1 also came to a realization. That broken tree, whether it was the texture or the scars left on it, looked exactly the same as the one that SOP2 had crashed into earlier during the scuffle.
"That should be it. I didn't realize that Renault and the others had actually parked their ship here before. I don't know where they've run off to now, but the mission is important. It's better to hurry..."
As M16 was speaking, RO635 gestured a hand signal to M16 and M4A1 and pointed to the sky above their heads.
"They're already here..."
Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately looked up towards the sky, where a huge black shadow was slowly descending in the distance.
"Eh, it's really them. It is a coincidence?" M16 scratched her head, completely not expecting to run into Renault and the girls on the way to the mission.
M4A1's eyes brightened up.
Since she woke up, although she had been communicating with SOP2 and AR15, she hadn't really met them. Although she hadn't applied for leave, she still wanted to see how SOP2 and AR15's current situation really was.
And just as RO on the ground noticed the ship in the sky, wz.29, who was sitting in the bridge and controlling the ship's slow descent, also noticed the T-dolls below that were very close to the landing site.
"Commander, there are three dolls over there at the landing site. It's M4A1, M16, and RO635."
"Hm? Got it. Talk to AR15 and the others. M16 and the others can be let in if they want to come aboard for a while." Renault was handling HK416's spent energy core when he heard this after hearing the communication. He quickly instructed.
"M16? She came just in time! Time to test out the new engine core!"
Nearby wasbHK416 who had just climbed out of the repair pod and put on her clothes. As soon as she heard M16 mentioned in the communication, her eyes instantly lit up, and she hurriedly ran outside. She was obviously intending to take M16 as the first target of her own 'acclimatization training'.
"Ah...?"
Renault did not even have time to open his mouth to instruct two sentences. But thinking about this girl not being a light-and-heavy type, he let it slide.
If M16 breaks, he could help repair her...
Ahem, in short, for M16, we can only ask for her own good fortune, or pray that HK416 won't be too full of energy caused by her over-excitement.
..
"M4! M16!"
The ship had just landed on the ground when SOP2 rushed out from the cabin.
SOP2 didn't open the elevator to the ground and directly jumped down from the several meters high hatch.
"Woohoo, SOP2!?"
Seeing SOP2 lunging towards her with open arms in the air, M4A1 subconsciously wanted to stand still and open her hands to take SOP2 down.
Seeing this, the spectating M16 immediately had her heart skip a beat. She knew how heavy SOP2's weight actually was after the transformation!
What's more, the place where SOP2 jumped from was at least three meters or so...
A few hundred kilograms smashing down from the height of one floor!
And you still want to catch her! Even military-grade parts can't afford physical trauma like this!
M16 hurriedly stepped forward and yanked M4A1 away with one hand!
"Hey?"
M4 who was suddenly yanked away let out a soft eep.
"Ah puh!"
SOP2 who collided with the snow also let out a strange sound.
Boom!
She then smashed heavily into the ground.
RO635 was also startled by the sound of SOP2's landing and came forward to take a look. She realized that SOP2 had not only crushed the snow this time but was even embedded deeply into the ground...
"Well... M4..."
Her face was completely red from the impact, but because of the snow cushion, she didn't break her face. SOP2 climbed up from the pit on the ground, looking at M4A1 with a face of confusion.
"Ah, sorry SOP2, I'm just..."
M4 rushed forward and tried to help SOP2 up from the ground, but... it's so heavy...
"So, at least have a self-awareness of how much you weigh right now. Are you trying to smash M4 into scrap metal by jumping down like that?"
Just as M4A1 tugged on SOP2's arm and strained to drag her up, AR15's voice also came from the other side of the ship.
Unlike SOP2, AR15, although quite excited, was not so foolish as to jump straight down.
Just look at M4 and the others; the snow on the ground was at least more than half a meter deep. Landing flat on the ground could smash a crater into it. Jumping down directly would be like planting yourself directly into the dirt.
"Long time no see, M4. What kind of mission are you guys on? Running to a place so close to the Sangvis Ferri Base?"
AR15 stepped down from the elevator. Even with her snow boots on, walking in such a place was still a bit inconvenient for her, who was severely overweight.
Reaching down, she yanked SOP2 up, who was still trying to lean on M4.
"Well, don't lean on M4, be careful of crushing her."
"Oh." SOP2 was a bit reluctant, but at this time, she also remembered her current heavy body. Although she scattered her hands, she then came back up and picked M4 up and spun her around!
"Hey?"
"Really, of course, I can't just say anything about the mission or anything, but looking at the two of you, you must be having a very comfortable time on Renault's side."
Looking at AR15 and SOP2, no matter which one of them, there was a smile on their faces. Even the previously stern-faced AR15 didn't have that serious look on her face anymore.
It was obvious that life on Renault's side was very comfortable.
"Well, sort of, comfortable indeed, but sometimes it's just too idle. There are very few missions on Renault's side, there's not much to do on the ship."
Most of the tasks were taken over by the M1 Garand's group and those Sangvis Ferri dolls, so the later arrivals like AR15 and the others really couldn't find much to do.
"Right, M16, there's someone waiting for you over there. Looks like she wants to fight you."
As she was saying that, AR15 pointed at the top deck of the airship, where there was already a doll over there watching them.
