Armament Reloaded I
Volume 9: Right Now, Over There
Reint explained the device to Marek and Krisso as they were in the aircraft carrier. The carrier was headed towards a very populated area. This area was deep in the jungle, but heavily populated with sligs. Most of the sligs in this area were rogue and without a glukkon master. Capturing them shouldn’t be too difficult.
Marek looked around, “If we capture twenty each, we should be in the green.” Krisso nodded, “Alright then. Good luck guys!” Reint smiled and they put on their parachute backpacks. As the aircraft carrier swung around, the three sligs hopped off the side and headed for the jungle. Reint spoke into the earpiece, “Krisso, go right… Marek, go left.”
The three sligs went their separate directions. Krisso opened his parachute and gently pulled on the left side of the parachute mechanism. Krisso was close to the ground now, he waited for the right height before discarding the parachute and landing on his metallic legs. “Infiltration successful.”
Krisso didn’t have much practice with the grab system. This was his first time using it. He had to make sure it worked properly. Krisso crept past a large hill and looked around. He could see a lone slig soldier who was checking his ammo for defects. Krisso silently walked around to the other side of the valley, until the slig’s back was visible to Krisso. Krisso leapt forwards and whacked the slig with the end of his gun. The slig was out cold, little pieces of ammo scattering across the floor. Krisso tied a small harness to the slig, and with one press of a button the slig was yanked away by the balloon system. “Well, it works”, Krisso said to himself.
