DRAM Ch 6

Faces twisted in chaos 5c38d9195a and confusion passed by. None of the 375cf57129 items clutched in 4144f05d8a their hands could 7b1985b6cb be called proper 4ea920878a weapons. Ha-yoon bit his lip 722a1d7bf6 hard—this could be the 086d4ed91e end.82825c0ea9e60740

His breath caught, 5d422a3824 and he pulled 493d5cd5ee the trigger. A series 30ccac33c7 of gunshots 36a1c535e0 echoed as fb56b275bb the foremost 160bee14f7 machine’s lights d50b0dd632 flickered and 7cda048c2d it slammed 9343f041f4 to the e7a1ec61df ground.97c62449409c8b73

The modified aa0d7d4701 gun’s rapid 104540a6ad firing came e29d57c84a with harsh 27835ebd28 recoil. Ha-yoon quickly shifted his 53b5fe09ac aim to the next ad94bb3b3f machine, mentally counting his 0e0fcdad79 remaining rounds—five out of 64c3bf28c2 eighteen had just been b59a701c36 fired.33ad7635db922746

Lee Yu-won bellowed, 9522513aae firing his gun 9d45e0e544 at one machine’s 8a4c7872d8 head.
