I get the idea of not leaving your damsel-in-distress alone and defenceless in the middle of the wasteland. But when the other party has taken to abduction of acquaintances just to get to you, letting even one escape with their lives seems way too dangerous of a gambit.

Oh well, refusing to take his chance and run, that fucker already sealed his fate anyway.

Akira has map hax & auto aim. Not fair.
With the caveat that almost everyone competent in this world has wall hacks too. But yes, the aimbot and superior battlefield analysis break any semblance of fairness.

The snakes eyes of the bad guy makes him look so much more evil! Along with being a sneaky, double crossing asshole and the like

Thanks for the chapter 🙏🏼❤️

The minigun having little effect was disappointing, but that's augmented suits for you. We'll just have to settle for letting the monsters have their way with that guy. Alpha should be able to calculate something for that. He can be monsterbait while Akira and Sheryl escape.

I know it's supposed to be a super suit, but if a bullet throws you back that much, you definitely have broken some ribs

Yeah I was thinking this too. While retreating is often actually a great option, this particular group has already proven themselves to be after him in particular, and prefer targeting indirectly through mc's assets, forcing him to accept disadvantageous battles if he doesn't want to simply take the attrition until he's dust.

Add to that how this group knowledge of mc's golden egg, and could screw that up for him if they decide cashing in the intel is better than contesting him for the location. That said, he doesn't know they don't have collaborators in the city that will do so anyway once this team dies. But letting the guy go almost guarantees it.

Besides all that though, with alpha helping him he should really not have issues leaving the girl to jump somewhere high (covering their car) and headshot the dude fleeing. The girl is only in danger if one of those storms appear (which they have some warning for), or the guy gets to his car safely and can use tools there or run her down with the mobility.

Eh, everyone higher tier in this setting is cyberized, nanoaugmented, genetically enhanced or some combo to one extent or another (including Akira who was hitting the nanonmachines pretty hard early on). Takes some fairly serious firepower to cause them critical injury. Mere impact is unlikely to set anyone back much if at all.

As always with bootstrapping a build on a hardcore run sometimes it's challenging to figure out what to spend on surviving now vs investing for more build up later. Can't really blame Akira for making calculated tradeoffs in some areas given his funds, and in turn sometimes getting that wrong given his lack of education/experience. Alpha of course having made hundreds of attempts before can help make up for that, but even she has to work with the evolving world caused by her own actions. Like say Akira failed and she tried again, all the caches she had him deplete are now not available, the relationships will be different etc. So even she can't just get it perfect.

Feel like that's a real unbalanced way to run while holding someone.
with his current situation it is the best, with the suit he is faster and way stronger than her, he holds her on one hand and will fight with the other while running
With her broken fingers(not sure how effective the meds she took earlier are) i'm not sure she can properly grab onto him and for example mount his back so that his hands are free
