"Seven-why are there so many? Find cover!"
Thor was frantic inside-Panam wasn't a rookie anymore, so how had she let the drones catch up with her?
But now wasn't the time to lecture Panam. The urgent priority was taking out the drones chasing them!
Military Drones were extremely deadly combat units, especially on flat terrain.
With powerful mobility and deadly rapid-fire machine guns, they were the kind of combat unit that gave most mercenaries a headache-
Seven Griffin Drones could take out almost any Nomad convoy or group of mercenaries in the Badlands!
Bang!
Thor hid behind cover. A shot rang out from Jackie's Nekomata, and the bullet left an extremely discordant trail in the air, scattering the sunlight into unnatural colors.
That shot took out a Griffin from several hundred meters away. Thor looked at Jackie, who had fired, and gave him a thumbs-up. "Badass."
But that morale-boosting shot couldn't stop the attack. They were drones, not people; getting shot wouldn't make them afraid.
The Griffins flew toward the Camp at full speed. Panam, in the car, could only watch helplessly as the Drones swept overhead. In a panic, she slammed on the brakes, then let go of the steering wheel before the car had even stopped and twisted around to grab a rocket launcher from the back seat!
Clunk!
The car jolted against the ground and nearly overturned as it lost control, but Panam quickly turned back around and steadied the steering wheel-
Then she leaned out the window with the rocket launcher on her shoulder!
"Eat this!"
Boom!
The Surface-to-Air Missile locked onto its target and hit it directly!
Jack clicked his tongue. The Bright Family was much richer than Red Ochre-they could even get their hands on Surface-to-Air Missiles.
But that was the only one.
