Chapter 16: CHAPTER 14

Ray

Ray sent a few Orkin and half his total number of Goblins into the complex ahead of himself, holding back most of his heavy hitters and Grok. He had no idea what was inside, but he didn’t want to be on the receiving end.

Opening his map, he changed to the view that was more or less one from a strategy game. He could zoom in and out, issue orders, and even track his units through a dizzying variety of custom icons. For now, however, he simply used the numbers one and two to identify the two groups on the map. The unit interfaces even came with hand designators showing what troops were where, and even how they were equipped!

Equipment would be next on his to-do list, which seemed to be growing longer by the day. However, that thought needed to be set aside for now. He watched carefully as the group went inside and spread out in twos and threes. Yet nothing happened, even as they moved deeper into the complex.

In fact, nothing happened for so long that Ray began to wonder if whatever had been here had simply moved out. If it was him he would have hit and run, eschewing a superior position for mobility. Unfortunately, that line of thought came to an abrupt halt as a trio of goblins simply vanished from the map

“Got you bitch,” he grunted, issuing orders the everyone to converge on that location. “Let's go, guys, we have a … whatever the fuck is in there to kill,” he ordered as he racked a round into the pistol. He didn’t have many rounds left, but hopefully enough at the very least for this little adventure.

Ray and his group entered the massive structure. It had been, at its most recent point, a vehicle manufactory. Something that would be invaluable once he developed his sector more.

Several more icons from the forward group disappeared, even as the sounds of fighting echoed through the cavernous buildings. “Let's go!” ordered Ray, doubling his speed as they rushed forward to support the other group, which was apparently getting its ass kicked.

As they moved from the initial manufactory to a larger, more open materials storage warehouse Ray froze. Letting loose a long string of profanity that made even Grok look impressed, he ordered his troops to charge the massive undead that was filling the center of the room.

He recognized the damn thing even as it turned, its small black beady eyes locking onto him while ignoring everything else. With a roar that shook the rafters, the truly huge undead that had chased him up the side of the chemical tower started trundling his way.

Ray unloaded two shots at the thing's head, missing both times. Cursing as he began to strafe, he lined up another shot. This one glanced off the monstrosities head, causing it to roar again. It snatched up a Goblin in fury and, with unsettlingly good aim, pitched it at him.

With a squeal, the squealing green monster was flung through the air in Ray’s direction. Going into a roll, the Goblin narrowly missed him but was traveling at such speeds that when it struck the ground it simply left a long green smear across that section of the warehouse.

Yells of rage came up from the other Goblins, who summarily rushed the giant undead and began perforating its knees with their spears. Ray was surprised at their sudden fury and directed the Orkin to assist. Even as the much larger monsters began to move, Grok yanked his human owner up and set him back on his feet.

“Look herez,” said the bruised bruiser, “Ya gotz ta stay on ya wahkaz to kill dem undeadz.” With that simple piece of advice behind him, Grok threw himself into the fray, leaving Ray to puzzle out just what the hell he had been told.

With several more losses, the group eventually wore down the fifteen-foot-tall undead and it fell to its knees. However, this posed a new set of problems. While it was no longer mobile, it could now reach all of his troops much more easily. Goblins and Orkin began flying through the air as the massive undead simply grabbed them, and then pitched them through the air.

This was not the kind of fight Ray had in mind when he came down here. In fact, this whole expedition was rapidly turning into a disaster.

Circling around, Ray got into the undead juggernaut's blind spot. Stopping for a moment, he designated the creature just that. A new label appeared above the things head:
