Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Luo Fan finally regained his composure: "So, the Raccoon City government building did regain its lights just now, but only for a few seconds?"

"Well, I personally don't think it was Squad 404 who did it. They wouldn't be stupid enough to turn on all the lights in the building after the power was restored."

No one would want to do that during a stealth mission...

This topic immediately caught the girls' attention.

The AN94 and AK15 in the back seat moved closer.

“I also don’t think it was Team 404 who did it. After all, they didn’t know the layout of the building and had no motive to do so. More importantly, even if they did do it and restored the building’s power, they wouldn’t be so reckless as to turn on all the lights.”

AK15 shared his guess.

AN94 asked, "Do they have night vision modules?"

"The UMP9 has a tactical goggle, and each of us is equipped with a tactical flashlight, so there's no possibility of a lack of light..."

WA produced a photo of Squad 404 and highlighted the tactical goggles on UMP9's face.

Luo Fan, however, was pondering something else.

He wanted to contact UMP45 directly.

However, since the other party is on a stealth mission, contacting them rashly could pose a significant risk to them.

But he was indeed very worried...

Does this mean that Squad 404 has been exposed?

Or is there a reason for its promising future?

Just then, AK12, who had been silent all along, spoke up...

"You've forgotten one thing..."

She thought she had guessed at least a slight possibility, considering the current situation.

"what?"

All eyes were drawn to the AK12.

"Commander, do you remember what your purpose was when you issued this order?"

AK12 countered with a question.

Luo Fan lowered his head to think, then said, "Remember, find out about the cooperation between the Raccoon City government and Umbrella. Including any other relevant information."

"That's right, besides serving as evidence as a backup plan, there's another reason..."

"There's another one... wait!"

He seemed to have thought of something.

Luo Fan's unease began to grow with each beat of his heart...

Even though AK12 had its windows closed due to the weather, Luo Fan still couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

But the others were still completely confused and did not understand the two's ideas.

"Yes, you guessed right... but it's just a guess."

So what exactly is it?

AN94 asked.

"Besides collecting information and evidence, there's one more thing..."

"We won't be the only ones doing this; Umbrella certainly will too..."

Luo Fan and AK12 tacitly expressed what the other was thinking.

"them......"

......

140 404, stalker

"They want to destroy any evidence that is detrimental to Umbrella..."

in unison......

Like a thunderclap, it exploded in Luo Fan's mind.

It seems I've sent Squad 404 on an extremely dangerous mission...

Although humanoids are far superior to humans in terms of strategic awareness and combat skills, Umbrella is capable of doing anything to eliminate unfavorable factors.

......

"Squad 404, attention. You may encounter Umbrella's USS or UBCS forces. Please proceed with the mission only if your safety is guaranteed."

Just now, 45's phone vibrated slightly, and when he turned it on, he saw this message from Luo Fan.

They had long suspected that there were other armed forces present, perhaps the White Eagle military, or perhaps Umbrella.

Now, Luo Fan's news has further confirmed their suspicions.

Squad 404 has now reached the upper-middle section of the government building, approximately the 24th floor...

The entire route was walked, without using any elevators...

Although the humanoid didn't feel noticeably tired, M870 couldn't help but curse, "Which bastard built the government building to be a damn 140 meters tall?"

He even pretended to catch his breath.

They were going to the top floor, but now they had walked more than 90 meters, 30 floors.

"So why don't they invest more in infrastructure and public welfare projects when they have the money?"

SAT8 muttered to himself.

"Perhaps they all ended up in someone's pocket..."

45 sneered, as if this kind of thing was nothing new to her.

It's hard to understand why a government building, which is clearly just a government building, is built so tall.

What's even more grueling is that they have to climb up on foot...

Along the way, they encountered several surveillance cameras that had already started operating, but instead of being destroyed by Adeline as they had at the beginning, they had 45 hack into them and temporarily freeze the images to avoid alerting the cameras.

It's just a faulty surveillance camera; it might just be considered a simple circuit problem.

After all, they were the last visitors to arrive, so they naturally had to be mindful of "etiquette"...

......

A few minutes later, Team 404 arrived at the 35th floor.

It's not much different from the previous floors, but...

"Ugh, such a strong smell of gasoline..."

SAT8 instinctively covered his nose.

"Shh!"

Suddenly, 45 lowered his posture and gestured for everyone to be quiet.

The girls, who had been relatively relaxed, suddenly became tense. Although they did not understand the purpose of 45's actions, they still did as she said.

Instead of continuing up the fire escape, 45 followed the smell of gasoline and went to the interior of the 35th floor.

Although it is a government building, such a tall building still has many functional areas. The 35th floor where they are now is just a normal office building.

......

"C6 team, watch your efficiency, we still have more than ten floors to 'drag' on."

"Team A has already started clearing the area above the 40th floor, and there is still plenty of time."

"Anyway, I'd better hurry. Working in this lousy place is really tough, and Nicola will probably find another way to embezzle a large sum of money. I just want to get my share and get back as soon as possible..."

As soon as 45 and the girls entered the office area on the 35th floor, they heard conversations.

They crouched behind the desk to hide themselves.

45 and 416 peeked out, beginning to spy on the source of the conversation...

The two men, wearing black hoods, black tactical vests, and light brown military pants, were dumping something into every corner of the office.

That looks like gasoline...

However, they did not appear to be Umbrella's USS forces, as the distinctive all-black tactical uniforms and black-and-red-eyed gas masks were absent.

That might be the Umbrella UBCS unit the commander was referring to...

Internal channel of Squad 404

"Sister 45, what are your plans?"

UMP9 asked.

She crouched behind a desk wall, no more than three meters away from one of the UBCS members.

"Should we leave immediately, or leave one alive to question them?"

416 offers two straightforward options.

As UMP45 of Squad 404, she naturally preferred the second option...

"Leave one alive, and deal with the rest."

After saying that, the girls took out the daggers from their bodies and prepared for battle.

Although a direct bullet hit on gasoline will not ignite it, they still need to be wary of gasoline fumes and sparks from a bullet hitting a computer, as these could potentially ignite the gasoline accidentally.

Moreover, for tactical dolls, as long as their mind cloud is not damaged, taking one or two shots is not a big deal.

Everyone stood at attention, crouching low, like hungry wolves ready to bare their fangs at any moment to their unsuspecting prey...

In the internal channel, they had already assigned their respective targets, and were just waiting for the order to attack.

"three......"

45 raised the dagger and aimed the tip at the back of the neck of one of the UBCS members.

The girls put on masks to hide their faces.

"two......"

UMP9 stood up, ready to put his hand on the shoulder of the person in front of him at any moment...

416 bent his legs, as if he would dash away like an arrow released from a bow in the next second.

"one!"

In an instant, the girls rushed out from behind their cover and attacked the unsuspecting, pitiful creatures.

The prey was still fast asleep, but the wolves were already thirsty for blood...

UMP9 locked onto the shoulder of the nearest enemy and plunged the dagger into his throat without hesitation.

In one second, she had already stabbed three times...

But she's using a cold weapon, so how can she deal with enemies at a distance?

In the blink of an eye, before the enemy could react, she reached out and took the dagger from the enemy's tactical vest. Before the enemy in front could raise his gun and aim, she suddenly threw the dagger!

The moment the other person raised his gun, he collapsed to the ground.

The dagger was precisely embedded in his forehead...

"Damn it, enemy attack! Enemy... uh!"

Before the other party could call out, 416 threw the dagger at his throat.

Although 416 was temporarily out of weaponry, she skillfully slid between desks and retrieved new daggers from enemies already taken down by her teammates, continuing to eliminate the remaining targets.

As a shotgun android, M870 took advantage of her strength to bully these ordinary humans. Coupled with her arrogant personality, she didn't even use a dagger, but directly punched the other party in the face.

The enemy died on the spot; his entire face, including his hood, was caved in...

All of this happened in just a few seconds...

The enemy furthest from them was already intimidated and didn't even know who they should shoot first.

He watched helplessly as his teammates were eliminated in an instant.
