《Modern Weapon Summoning System》Chapter 94 - Tanks

"Del, are you sure we are going to do this?" Anna asked.
"Yeah, it's quick money, and it's definitely way easier than fighting special forces, and Anna, don't forget, their eyes aren't as sharp as those spec-ops boys that we saw," Del said.
"They're tanks, but I get your point, we can use range to our advantage, such as shooting them from half a kilometer away," Anna commented.
"Exactly, that's why I have a scope on this RPG, it's to help us to acquire the targets," Del said.
"Well, good luck to us all, have you observed the terrain or something?" Anna asked.
"Yeah, as far as I can see, we can hide in the forest encircling this railroad. The tanks would be outside of the forest. There was no way the tank would be able to enter the forest," Del said.
"The gap between the trees is not big enough?" Anna asked..
"Yeah," Del said.
"So, we will have tanks spreading out in open grassland. If you ask me, that's quite hard for them to spot us, so yeah, I think you have a good plan there, but now, let's ask the military officer for more intel first, don't you think?" Anna asked.
"Yeah, I agree with that, let's ask him first about that," Del said.
Del picked up his backpack and he headed outside again. This time, he wanted more intel from the military officer. He needed to know what kind of tank he would be facing. If he didn't know, he wouldn't know what kind of threat he would face.
First of all, Del had to decide what type of light tanks or medium tanks that he would be destroying. After all, a T-XX tank was different from an A-XX tank. The former was slower than the latter, but according to the manual that Cole gave to him, it packed a heavier 75mm gun. The latter was faster, but it was equipped with a lighter cannon, 40mm one to be exact.

"Sir, what type of tanks that the company ahead pack?" Del asked the military officer.
"As far as I know, they are packing with T-35 medium tank and A-25 light tank. Do you think you can handle that?" The officer asked.
"Well, leave it to me, sir," Del just smiled.
"I will count the destroyed tanks by the number of explosions that I see, alright? The T-35 weak point is right below the turret, it's where they store the ammunition. You blow it up, the rest of the tank will go kaboom," the officer said.
"Thanks for the information, sir," Del said.
Del then opened the military handbook and searched for the T-35 tank specification. T-35 tank was a tank designed around ten years ago by the separatist military and it was the backbone of their armored units. It was cheap to produce and easy to procure. Its 75mm gun could penetrate any Ilbistirum's light tank or armored car.
However, like any cheap stuff, this tank was well-known to be unreliable and quite a death trap for the soldiers inside of it due to the placement of the ammunition racks that were close to the crew. The tank was also prone to fire.
The A-25 light tank, on the other hand, was agile and carry enough firepower to harass Ilbistirum's light tank. However, it was easy to penetrate its armor with even a 30mm gun. The tank was only rated for protecting against large-caliber round, but not tank rounds. It could be said that it was a cheap vehicle for harassing the infantry.
"Well, we can go through the forest to approach them," Del said.
"That's a good idea, they are blind as bats right now, however, even I wouldn't be too naive and let enemy soldiers encircle me," the officer said.

"What are you trying to tell me, officer?" Del asked.
"There should be troops in that forest, making sure that nobody sneaks on them, that alone should deter you from going there. Still, if you somehow manage to navigate your way in that forest without any light source, you'll be fine," the officer commented.
"That's what I'm planning to do, sir," Del said.
"Well then, good luck," the officer saluted.
Del saluted back and he dashed for the forest. The officer just put his hat down and Doctor Rubert was cold sweating. The train operator was equally confused. It was not the first time for them to see an idiot contractor going after impossible targets just for some money.
"That boy is reckless," the officer commented.
"Yeah, couldn't agree more," Hubert said.
Del didn't hear them though, the sound of money was much more enticing than the fear of facing the death. Anna wasn't different either, with more money, she would be able to get back to Eric as fast as she could.
They dashed into the darkness of the forest while keeping an eye out for someone with the separatist uniform. The separatist used a dark blue uniform instead of a dark green uniform that the Ilbistirum military used. Overall, it wouldn't be hard to spot them.
They run to the forest while Del looked at his position on his tablet. Once he was close enough to the enemy's predicted location. He immediately stopped running and begun to walk, once he became closer, he begun to crouch, every inch mattered because one wrong move would result in his death.
"Anna, do you think we make the right move?" Del asked.
"I think we make a right move, the tanks can come to the train faster than the train can retreat, we can serve as a good delay for them. Still, Del, thinking about it, can we have enough money to get back at Eric?" Anna asked.
"Well, if we work hard, they will pay us hard, so, let's be positive, ok?" Del asked.
"Yeah, I agree with you."
"Now be quiet, let's initiate military communication procedure," Del peeked from behind the bushes as saw one of the separatist soldiers walking in front of him, however, the soldier didn't notice due to Del's camouflage.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess.
