"Huff huff huff, Gamma-1, this is Beta-2. Do you copy? We need reinforcement; shit, it does not work" As Beta-2 runs, trying to find the door, in an instant he hears some sort of metal destroyed. He feels pain in his chest as he looks down. He sees his heart in beautiful and smooth hands as his vision darkens.
"Well, that should be the last one, and finally, an undamaged helmet of 'Quantum Guardian Exosuit'. I could use this to see their plans" she said as she wore the 'Quantum Guardian Exosuit' in her head and tried to search for information about every single mercenary but found nothing other than contacts and information about the 'Mobius Labs'.
"Seems like my assumptions are correct. They had intelligence, me and everyone in the 'Mobius Labs'. Well, it's going to be more troublesome than I thought. They even knew about the hidden routes only known by a few executives of the 'Mobius Labs'. Oh, well, first, I need to gather the surviving artificial humans first and that unique artificial human," she said as she hummed a playful song going to the place where she hid the unique artificial human.
"There you are, my little sleeping beauty." She looked at the beautiful sleeping artificial human in front of her as she carried her in a princess carry as she walked to the storage room, finding an emotionless artificial human still alive and ordering it to gather the other surviving artificial humans at the door of the storage room as she walked her way to the door of the storage room.

"There are a total of 325 artificial humans left, ma'am; most have recovered, and those who had fallen asleep from overexerting themselves have woken up," the emotionless artificial human said as he looked at the green-haired woman in front of her who was carrying the unique artificial human in her hands.
"You mean 326 artificial humans left, little pawn?" the green-haired woman said as she looked at the artificial humans wearing exosuits and holding guns, as she pointed out the miscalculations of the emotionless artificial humans reporting at her.
"Does ma'am not view the artificial human in her hand as a lover? If so, forgive me about my misunderstanding" the artificial human said as he just stood there and looked at her. He never said anything wrong at all.
"Wha-what do you mean, lover? Its just curiosity, nothing more, nothing less" she hastily said as she blushed. But this did not escape the emotionless artificial human, and he did not care about it at all, as the only thing he needed to do was listen to her orders.
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
"Understood" the emotionless human said, understanding what she meant by saying that it's nothing more than curiosity, nothing more, nothing less, but he also understood that her madam has fallen in love at first sight.
"Hmm, good. You understand that I never loved this woman that I hold because it's nothing but curiosity on my part" she said, as if trying to hide it but miserably failing at doing so.
"Ok, its time to get out of this tower while you protect me holding this precious specimen in my hand, so move!" she shouted as all the artificial humans opened the door as they prepared themselves for the impending fight that would happen in the hallways. As they cleared the hallways of the 48th floor, they did not see any mercenaries on the floor.
"Hmm, everything is a bit too quiet, even the order for the others to be careful of possible traps and ambushes that the mercenary would do to us" she said to the emotionless artificial human. As she did not hear any gunfire or explosions, at the very least the mercenary would go to hunt her down, so she believed they were hiding at the bottom floor and putting and preparing some traps and ambush areas.
"All artificial humans, be advised and look out for possible traps and ambushes that the mercenaries left for us and report instantly if you find one or, in that situation, immediately" the emotionless artificial human said as he followed behind her madam, waiting for more orders to be said and done.

"Is this all the remaining mercenaries that we have left?" Gamma-1 said as he looked at the 90 mercenaries in front of him with a grim face, as he believed this number of people was not even enough to kill the primary target, much less the whole Alpha unit, which died just chasing down the primary target, leaving only the Beta unit that has the total number of 90 mercenaries left and the Gamma unit that has only 5 mercenaries.
"Yes, that's all we have left. Did you ask the client to cancel our hit on this mission?" Gamma-3 said as he asked if he cancelled the request for this mission because this is just too much of a loss on their side. Although they've been given these advance exosuits, the loss is many times more than they originally believed the cost that this job would do to them.
"Yes, I've asked the client to cancel, but he said he would turn us into fugitives that the world would hunt non-stop if we cancelled this request and just ran away, especially given the fact that countless high-ranking officials in the world are siding with our client, and we can't really do anything about it because their first target would be our families and friends before they even start hunting us down," Gamma-1 said as he frowned at what would happen if they just ran away from this job.
"Sigh." Gamma-3 sighed as ever since Gamma-4 informed them that a multiple number greater than a hundred was found outside of the storage room of the 48th floor by using the 'Life Sensor.'
"All of you fortify this position and prepare yourself for combat" Gamma-1 said in an instant as he prepared everyone for the battle that would happen.
"I should have just stayed home," Gamma-1 said as he went back to the monitor, sat there, and watched what was happening on the 48th floor.
