[]Make sure Reinforce is set up to your liking

Before you set off to start the duel, you need to finalize Reinforce's settings.

Raising your inactive IS on your wrist, you say, “Reinforce are you ready for the match?”

<I believe so. After watching the way you fought and trained with Cecilia Alcott, I am beginning to have a grasp on this tactics and wisdom you mentioned earlier.> Reinforce prompts.

“What do you have in mind? I am thinking to focus on hit and run tactics to play the Maeve's better speed and turning to bring more firepower to bear without getting in close.” you respond.

<Due to a human's limited visual sense, I think we can exploit that. If we attack from angles that avoid the enemies sight and limited response times, we should be able to attack with limited response from the enemy.> another prompt display.

Another prompt follows, <And with the current weapon load out timing becomes more critical. I believe I have a system that would boost your effectiveness during an engagement. I hope these new settings are to your liking.>

“Sounds good. Let's get started then.” you finish. Activating the Maeve, you launch out of the bay and see Rin launching the same time you do. Meeting in the center of the stadium, you get a good look of Huang's Shenlong. That dual Scimitars will definitely hurt if you get close.

“So you didn't run away. I hope you are ready for your defeat.” Huang says smugly.

[]One final snipe

“I don't have to worry about that. I don't have a history of losing. After all America has never backed down, unlike some countries.” you respond. If it weren't for the IS' visual sensors, you wouldn't have seen Huang's eye twitch.

A horn blows to signify the start of the match with a “DUEL START” prompt on your HUD. Huang takes both of her scimitars and combines the two into some sort of double ended glaive. She then charges headlong at you.

But it's not her strong point. That's what he's talking about.

>>33732314
Which raises the question: how do you dodge a gun without a barrel, with an invisible bullet?

>>33732349
git gud

[]Match Huang's speed and acceleration and bring the hurt

CIWS time.

>>33732349
You use the Char method: dodge where it points, not what's being fired.

>>33732314
True but what I'm thinking is lulling her into a false sense of security baiting her into falling into close/melee range where we then show the melee training we've been doing.

>>33732461
She'll still beat the shit out of us in melee. We probably have one good surprise attack in melee, so save it for when it counts.

>>33732461
>show the melee training we've been doing
You mean barely any? We've practiced some fundamentals with Houki & disengaging with Cecilia. That is not a recipe for 'Engage a CQC-strong machine in CQC'.

>>33732499
depends on how much her head is screwed with as if it works she'd never see it coming and given her immature personality, it'd really mess up her rymthm.

Then why did we take Chifyune's melee friendly advice than Maya's sniping ones?

>>33732580
>Then why did we take Chifyune's melee friendly advice than Maya's sniping ones?

So we could stay at range rather than be forced into melee all the time.

>>33732580
>Then why did we take Chifyune's melee friendly advice than Maya's sniping ones?
Because it's not a bad idea to shore up a weakness when you know you'll probably be facing that weakness.

Speaking of Chifuyu: wonder if we'll end up meeting her house broken brother.

>>33732642
It'd be funny just because our harem would all instantly flip to him.

[]Break off and get some distance so you can reengage at your preference

Seeing as you don't want to let Huang get into melee range, you deploy your autoshotgun and begin to unload into her. At the same instant you start firing, you pour all your thrust upward rocketing you into the sky. Looking down you see Huang swipe with her glaive where you use to be. Seeing her start to look up, you deploy your Pilum over your left shoulder to fire a burst of prox fuse rockets at her. The sound of explosions means you hit your mark. You follow that up with another burst of rockets at where she should be. Several explosions follow but the placement is wrong.

“HA! Don't think that would work on me twice.” Huang yells over the intercoms.

You see the clouds from the explosion part as you are hit by something. Grunting from the hits you take evasive maneuvers.

“What was that?” you in between your manuevers.

“Sun Tzu said to stay formless as if a shadow.” Huang says.

“John that is Shenlong's special ability. The Chinese call it “Dragon Cannon”. It is a weapon that fires without a barrel and projectile from what we can tell.” Walken says over the intercoms.

Still keeping your distance, you switch out to Gram and fire in between your dodges to try and keep Huang pinned.

You look at your shield amount,80% remaining. You need to switch things up.

You need to knock her off balance so you can have an easier time firing at her. You decide this is the perfect time to use your better thrusters and altitude difference to attack. Keeping Gram in your right hand, you redeploy the Pilum and fire two bursts of rockets at Huang.

“Ahh! I told you that wouldn't work on me twice.” Huang shouts over the intercom.

As the rockets are intercepted by her invisible bullets, you use the clouds from the explosions as cover. Going full powered thrust at her, you switch out to your autoshotgun and get ready to fire.

<Hold fire til you are within 150 meters of the target to optimize hit chance.> Reinforce prompts on your HUD.

Sounds like Reinforce is really getting the hang of tactics you think to yourself. “Can you project a wireframe of where you think she is facing?” you ask Reinforce.

<Displaying now.> Reinforce quickly responds.

You see the wireframe of where she is looking and flying towards. She must be expecting more ranged attacks and is trying to look through the clouds at where you fired the Pilum. Quickly switching your flight path so that you begin to dive down to where you can fire into her back. Mid-dive you see the distance get closer and closer until you hit that sweet spot of 150 meters. The continuous bark of your autoshotgun catches her completely off guard and you hear her yell in surprise. By the time you empty your magazine, you are already under her flying past. Huang reacting to your fire, tries to react but her returns fire is too slow to get any good hits as you pass. Quickly switching to duel wielding the Razors, you suppress the attempts to keep up with you with a hail of bullets. But still she follows trying to get close.

Still flying with your back to the ground to help dodge her Dragon Cannon shots you decide the next move.

[]Stay in midrange and lay down a wall of lead

“Why can't you just stay still and get hit!” Huang shouts.

You turn parallel to the ground to bleed off some speed while you return fire with the duel Razors in each hand. You see your bullets ping off her armor and shields when all of sudden she gains a large boost in speed and gets in close, unfortunately for her it makes it easier to hit her. From all the lead in the air she overshoots you as she cannot get a good look at you. This gives you the change to dodge just past to her right, you turn around to continue firing with your Razors but are hit by an extended glaive as Rin spins around to land the blow.

You grunt from the hit and are thrown back much further than what would result from the blow.

<Thrusters were fired to avoid a complete melee hit.> Reinforce prompts.

One hell of a reaction, you think.

“There is more of that where that came from. So why don't you just stay still and take your punishment!” Huang yells out you, now with some frustration you think. Hard to tell right now.

Looking at the HUD displaying your shield amount, only 72%. Better than you than you thought from those glancing hits from the Dragon Cannon. Must have been that melee hit. Quickly switching out the Razor in your right hand for your autoshotgun and reloading it. You return fire while you avoid the Dragon Cannon fire and another of Rin's headlong charges.

[]Counter one of her charges with a strike from Caladbolg will all your thrust behind it

Staying within mid-range, you keep up the hailstorm of lead directed solely at Huang. She tries and break your withering fire with her own invisible bullets from her Dragon Cannons' but to not much effect. After being on the receiving end of the bullet storm, she finally charges at you. Seeing this as a golden opportunity, you pour all the thrust you have to hurl yourself directly at her.

“I got you now.” Huang yells at you as you power straight at her.

“Not this time.” you respond.

At that final moment before you merge into melee range, you stow away both of your currently equipped guns and take out your Caladbolg. Raising the huge claymore above your head you strike down on Huang at the final moment. The deafening sound of the ground below you being crushed, followed by a small explosion of dust and fire fill the area around you. Making sure to not stay within melee range of Huang, you quickly disengage and start getting distance. Almost as quickly as you fire you leave the cloud, Huang follows up in chase. Looking back at her, you see that one of the orbs following behind her containing a Dragon Cannon is completely destroyed.

“Thanks to you, you destroyed one of my cannons. I'll make you pay for that.” Huang yells with overbearing anger.

Seeing as you have height advantage on her, you turn around and prepare to strike again with your claymore. Pour all the thrust with the added help of gravity you bear down on her for another strike.

<WARNING. HIGH ENGERY BUILD UP DETECTED ABOVE. DISENGAGE.> a large prompt from Reinforce is displayed over the HUD. Following her advice you immediately break off and fly far to Huang's left. In the seconds following you blowing past Huang, a massive pillar of blinding pink and white light fills the stadium just off to your right. The resulting explosion fills the stadium with a massive cloud of dust and fire.

“The hell?!” you say in confusion, only to have several of those pinkish white beams fire at you.

[]The terrorists are back, time to return fire

“Shit, they're back. TIME TO GREET THEM!” you yell. You pivot your IS to face the terrorist while simultaneously switching your Caladbolg for your Gram. As soon as Gram is in your hands you begin firing directly into where you see the enemy IS standing.

<Please hold fire, John. We don't know if this is the enemy.> Reinforce prompts on the HUD.

“No dice. This is an enemy from before. Who else would crash in a public duel and fire on us.” you respond to Reinforce, “This is what combat actually looks like. So prepare yourself.”

<Understood.> Reinforce replys.

You see the enemy IS react to your fire with it's own fire of pinkish white beams. You dodge the beams easily enough until it stops firing and takes off after you.

“John what are you doing?” Walken harshly asks.

“Smith-kun get out of there and let the teachers handle this!” Ms Yamada yells over a different channel.

“Terrorist boss fight! Who else would try and attack us?” you respond to both of them.

“That doesn't matter, just get out of there and let us handle it!” Ms Yamada yells back with concern.

“No.” you shoot back, “Too many people are here watching this match. We have to get them out.”

You keep firing Gram at the enemy IS obviously only going after you. You are able to so some damage but it seems to have a lot more armor than the other IS' the terrorists used before.

“Smith, Huang, buy us enough time to get the doors open then.” you hear Ms Orimura over the intercom, “The entire stadium is on Level 4 lockdown so don't do anything risky. We can't get anyone in or out.”

“Fine.” Rin answers and fire at the enemy with her sole Dragon Cannon, “It will be your fault if I get hurt Smith.”

[]No tell Rin to retreat, she is too badly damaged to continue

“Huang pull back and retreat. You are too badly damaged and you probably don't have much shield reserve left to continue the fight.” you tell Huang.

“What are you talking about? I don't have much choice. It's not like it's my fault that I have less than a quarter of my shield power left.” Huang answers you.

Shit she really can't get hit you think. “Fine, just stay back and don't get hit. I don't want to see you get hurt because of the earlier fight.” you reply to Huang.

Your continued fire hasn't done any clear damage to that heavily armored IS. You need something to break through it and Gram isn't enough. The enemy IS finally gets into close range despite your fire and tried to punch with those oversized fists it has. Seeing the punch come straight at you, you dodge just under its punch and get behind it. Deploying the Pilum to your left hand, you fire a burst or rockets at it. Breaking away, you see little damage was done.

<Fragarch in the fully extended mode would be able to fully penetrate the enemy's armor.> Reinforce prompts.

“That is all well and good but a fully extended Fragarch is only good at long range due to how unwieldy it is.” you respond to Reinforce's prompt. You try and think of coming up with a plan only to see Rin fire at the enemy IS now. Her fire barely even phases the enemy and you see a build up of an orb near both of the arm's weapon ports.

Shit, that means a charged up beam is going to be fired at Huang. You quickly pour your thrust into going straight at Huang. From the corner of your eye you see the enemy IS fire and within that second you grab Huang in your arms.

<Too close. A direct hit would have done serious damage to the shields.> Reinforce prompts.

“What are you doing?” Huang says as she pushes her IS gauntlet against your cheek.

“I saved you. I can't let you get hurt.” you answer. Once you get some distance from the enemy IS, you let her go.

“What are we going to do? This thing is tough.” Huang asks.

“Hmm.The enemy only seems to target the one attacking it, then maybe.” you say half talking, half thinking, “I have an idea, I think.”

[]Set up a potential plan with Cecilia, she should still be in the launch bay room with Houki and Walken

“Huang, just stay back, I have an idea.” you say to her.

“Cecilia can you hear me still?” you ask over the intercom.

“Yes John, do you have an idea on how to deal with the enemy?” Cecilia quickly answers.

“Yeah. Are you able to exit through the launch bay from where you are?” you ask.

“This is risky, John. You are involving a new person.” Walken says.

The enemy begins to firing on the both you and Huang, so you return fire with Gram. And you fly away from Huang while you return fire so the enemy focuses on you.

“I think so, the doors are locked but I might be able to open them with my IS. And don't worry about Walken's concern. I told him that if you fail all of us are in danger.” Cecilia eventually says, now over her Blue Tears' comms.

“Ok. Seeing as how this person only is only attacking the one shooting at it. I should be able to keep its attention so you can come in and hit it hard enough to stagger it. Which would let me fire a full powered shot from Fragarch at it.” you tell Cecilia while you continue to fire at the enemy IS.

<I think the enemy is a drone, not a person.> a prompt comes up from Reinforce.

“What makes you say that?” you ask her.

<Responses are too rigid and too precise to be simply human.> another prompt comes up.

“Now that you mention it, it does act rather odd to be human.” you reply.

“John what do you mean about the enemy being rather odd?” Walken asks over the comms.

“Reinforce thinks the enemy is an unmanned drone.” you answer him.

“Not good. If the previous group has that sort of technology, it would spell trouble for us all.” Walken says.

“That is IF that group has that technology, Walken-san. There is always another person that could possibly do that.” Ms Orimura says in response to Walken.

Seeing as the drone is still on the ground firing with both hand blasters and smaller ones in the shoulders, you keep your distance. And with Huang keeping her distance as to not attract too much attention, you decide to really get its attention. You switch out your Gram for Fragarch in the collapsed form. While it doesn't throw off your center of gravity too much, you fire. The shot fired hit directly into the shoulder of the drone, knocking out that beam weapon.

“John, I just got through the door to the launch bay, how do you want to attack it?”

Once we find out about Tabane Shinonono is behind phantom task, we killing her or putting her in a dark dark cell in guantanamo bay.

Chances are she get executed.

Yeah, no, that's not going to happen.

[]Use your bits to pin it so I can use a full powered Fragarch at it

“Cecilia, can you use your bits to pin it with fire?” you ask her.

“It should be possible. I'm not sure how much time that would buy.” Cecilia responds.

“Don't worry, it will just be enough for me. We did train together, so I have an idea on how skilled you are.” you say over the comms.

You fire again with Fragarch, unfortunately it deflects off the drone's arm kicking up a bit of dust when the sabot hits the ground near it.

“Yes that is right, our training together will lead us to victory.” Cecilia says with confidence.

“Huang, when you see Cecilia firing, I want you to also fire. Keep it pinned and we will defeat it.” you tell Huang over the comms.

“Fine.” Huang responds a bit harshly.

“John, here I come.” Cecilia says. And with that you see Cecilia in her Blue Tears shoot out of the Launching Bay.

Preveting the drone from focusing on Cecilia, you fire again with Fragarch, hitting the right elbow of the drone. Cecilia now in a commanding position deploys her bits and gets in close with them. You fire again, this time getting a hit on the left leg. And then it happens, Cecilia's bits all fire from above on the drone. The drone thrown in sudden confusion doesn't know who or what to target and begins acting erratically. Using this chance you extend Fragarch to it's fully erect position.

“Reinforce, all power to Fragarch.” you command.

<Understood. Prepare for impact upon firing.> she responds.

You line up the perfect shot to the upper torso and pull the trigger. The shear momentum from the throws yourself and the Maeve back before you regain control. The sabot going at high hypersonic speeds impact the drone's upper torso completely shredding it. The head is ejected upwards and the shoulders split apart from each other. The neck and collar area just completely disintegrate. Was the damage you you could see before the entire stadium shakes from the impact and filled with a quickly pillowing pillar of dust.

“Hope you enjoyed some superior American firepower.” you quip.

“Do you think you got it?” Huang asks.

“I'll be ready with Starlight Mark III with no limiters, in case it is still moving.” Cecilia says.

After what seems like an eternity the cloud of dust finally subsides and you see the damage you caused. A crater the in diameter the quarter of the entire field is in the place where drone use to stand. The body, or rather what is left of it, is on the other side of the field. You see the head is partly embedded in the wall of the stadium below the bleachers.

Not wanting to take any chances, you collapse Fragarch and switch it for your autoshotgun, now with sabot shells. You land close to the drone and begin to approach it.

“John are you sure that is safe?” Cecilia asks.

“If anything happens, I know you'll have my back Cecilia.” you respond to her.

“Of course.” Cecilia responds happily.

Getting just about close enough to prod it, it suddenly gets up. Just as it turns it's right arm blaster at you, you see a bright blue beam come over you shoulder and bisect the what was left of the lower body into two.

“Hehe of course I have your back John.” Cecilia happily says.

"Hey don't forget about me." Huang quickly says.

<The drone is destroyed. No reaction from the IS nor any electrical reactions from it.> Reinforce prompts.

>Our most powerful weapon is a penis gun.

You know, I think this fits IS pretty well.

And that's it for this thread. Next time we deal with the fallout and relax with bit of a DEITO DEITO.

Thanks for running.

>>33739335
Thanks for running Conflict. It was enjoyable. Shame we can't bang out longer threads.

>>33739335
cool thread, thanks QM
are you archiving these btw? i missed last weeks, it would be nice if you included a bit of a "last week on IS quest," just suggesting

Wonder what was Tabane's motive for sending that monster into the middle of our fight? (Provided she was the one behind it anyway.)

It's not like we're using Byakushiki and we need to grind XP for it. Or maybe she just wanted her drone's debut to be as destructive as possible and it just so happened our fight with Rin was first on the tournament schedule?

Actually, disregard that. No use discerning the thought processes of a mad scientist.

>>33739335
Thanks for the episode. Same time next week, hopefully?

>>33739311
Well, that went well.

Thanks conflict. See you next week.

>>33739424
Well with classes coming up for me soon, I'll have to move to a different date. By then I should have a twitter account with a dummy email so I can post thread details and what not.

Just caught up with the entire quest. Enjoying it so far.

>not naming the AI Cortana so it can go "Wake up John"
I can't believe you guys let that one slip you by

wot

Is this an ironic quest, or something to be taken seriously?

Did you even see the clusterfuck that was that vote? He'd only let us use one of his 3 options anyway.
But that would have been a good name.
