The Latin man's name is Raul Menendez. He is in his twenties and is a sergeant, also known as E-7 (field officer).
He himself is also an expert at using shotguns. Basically, he rarely fails in simulated close combat and his reactions are quite sensitive.
Other than that, his battlefield skills are average, but what is scary about this man is not his fighting skills, but the fact that he is very scheming and has the ability to incite people's hearts.
He has a large group within the entire fleet, has a strong voice, seems to control some businesses, and has won over many people. He is a typical military thorn in the side.
It is said that when he was assigned to this mission this time, there were also rumors that his superiors wanted to deal with him, transfer him away, and clean up his influence.
But Xie Yuan doesn't care if the rumors are true or not. After all, the entire Marine Corps environment produces either a bunch of rotten people who are afraid of fighting or ambitious tycoons.
There are only a few people who are really capable and focus on fighting. Ryder, whom I have heard of and seen, counts as one, Kaiden counts as one, and I don’t know if Jenny Shepard, who was named a "combat hero", counts.
Of course, he himself can be considered one...
In short, Xie Yuan and Menendez can only be regarded as strangers who met each other. Xie Yuan also saw him in the team, but they had never interacted with each other before.
But as soon as Menendez met, he gave Xie Yuan a big surprise.
"How do you know?" Xie Yuan immediately closed the door, and Menendez immediately turned on the light source...a cold-colored emergency glow stick.
This is a bedroom, and it is a full-bed bedroom, with a bed frame on the left and right sides, but at this moment the wounded man is lying on the floor in the middle of the bed frame, seemingly unconscious.
Under the dim light, Menéndez's face looked as ferocious as an evil ghost. He pointed to the bed frame next to him and explained: "Speaking of which, I have to be grateful that there is an unlucky guy here who is hiding very deep. If it weren't for the corpse,
You can't smell the stink at all. His internal organs were severely damaged by the ultrasonic attack, and he died of his injuries, but the last words he left behind told me."
Xie Yuan immediately took off his helmet when he heard the clue, but then, "vomit!" The smell of corpses suddenly hit his stomach, making him want to vomit.
"Uh, ha." After a while, Xie Yuan suppressed the nausea in his stomach, and then his expression returned to normal and he looked at the deceased hiding under the bed with bleeding from all the orifices on his face.
Menendez suddenly had a smile in his eyes and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he was happy that the prank was successful, but there seemed to be other reasons as well.
"Where are your last words?" Xie Yuan leaned over and looked under the bed. It could be seen that the corpse had begun to exude a rotten smell and died in a miserable state, but he did not see a PDA or a multi-purpose tool for manifesting himself near him.
"On the bottom of the bed," Menendez explained, pointing to the Marine lying on the floor. "Delfalco had acid that penetrated his armor. When I put him on the ground, he was on the ground.
have witnessed."
"How is he?" Xie Yuan knew a little about battlefield first aid and immediately leaned over to check. Sure enough, the armor had been damaged by acid.
"I helped him clean the wound, but the medical gel had been used up. Now he couldn't stop the pain, so I gave him some morphine." Menendez's voice sounded a little frustrated, "I don't think morphine is too much."
Big problem, right?”
"You misunderstood, I don't care about morals. In fact, you don't have to tell me this, I know who you are." Xie Yuan asked Menendez not to be so sensitive, "Your business, what you do has nothing to do with me.
I don’t care, you don’t have to be so alert.”
"Oh, what are you talking about?" Menendez began to speak slowly.
"Your companion Delfalco did not lose consciousness, he was just pretending to be faint. I have heard rumors that someone is trying to get you." Xie Yuan bluntly saw through the lies they told, but after standing up, he still spread his hands.
To show no harm, "But I'm not interested in these, so don't think of any bad intentions towards me. I just want to save people now."
"That's it?" Menendez looked at Xie Yuan in surprise.
"Otherwise? I'm just a big-headed soldier who eats food. What's the use of me caring about these things?" Xie Yuan replied with a depressed expression, "This is something only an officer cares about. And don't think that I don't know. What do you do?"
There is no one behind these things.”
"I can't see that you are still so... practical." Menendez looked at him playfully and took out a pda from the pocket behind his back. These were the unlucky man's real last words:
"Ha...ha...cough cough cough, cough cough cough, this is Tommy Briggs, I am...ahem...the mayor of this town.
We...encountered...a conspiracy, a kind of insect I've never seen before that always attacks lone travelers at night.
We applied for assistance... but a man came, claiming to be a special commissioner of our colonial labor service company, to solve the problem.
As a result, something was uploaded in our main control room. That night after he left, we were surrounded by bugs... most of us were dragged underground by the bugs... sobbing... I was lucky enough to hide between the bed boards.
layer.
I even heard gunshots and the sound of things being moved, and they turned on all the electrical appliances in the entire colony!
In the days that followed, the sound of insects made me dizzy...Today, I finally couldn't hold on any longer. I...I hope that when someone finds me, they will remember my advice - tens of thousands of times.
Turn off all electrical appliances!
Cough cough cough cough…”
"So this colony has been tampered with? Give me the pda and I'll contact Captain Ryder." Xie Yuan didn't dare to neglect the key information after hearing it, so he sent the recording to Ryder.
"I can give it to you, but I need a guarantee." Menendez held the PDA in his hand and asked. "I need the credit from this operation to retire peacefully."
"I have a better way. Anyway, you and Delfaco are still capable of fighting. I just opened the way from the firepower point to the garden." Xie Yuan gave a suggestion, "You can go over and report to Ryder. He
I will record your merits for you
what do you think?"
"Is it going to go like this? I need your protection." Menendez and Delfalco, who had already stood up, proposed to increase the chips.
"I have other people who need to be rescued, and Ryder's perception is different between you going there alone and me sending you there," Xie Yuan didn't want to run back and forth. He insisted on sweeping the park to make sure no one was there before going back.
"Okay. Let's take the risk. I'll switch weapons with you. The submachine gun for your shotgun. The shotgun will make me feel safer."
"Okay." Considering their safety, Xie Yuan was happy to be free now that he could protect himself, and exchanged weapons with them, "We'll see you at the tower of the gate."
"You'd better take care of yourself!" Menendez responded.
