If there was any similarity to the Forest Trolls that Jin knew of, it would be that they have a high regeneration rate. Even though the Grey Bears were not reporting back to Jin, the System still updated the commander and now, the Interim Leader of Daimon City on the team's progress. It seemed like the Grey Bear Squad had decided to be self sufficient and not consistently rely on their commander.
Jin understood that Yinn might just be a Mechanoid but so far, she had possessed talents in leadership despite the lack of unique skills that the others might have. Even Diaz had been considered normal in terms of the standard set by the other Mechanoids within the Grey Bear squad. However, the System deemed that she might be able to find her speciality soon enough considering how she started to mimic Lynn and risking her life going for close quarter combats.
Even if they were just virtual simulated models, the System was still very interested in such data as they could be created in the real world so long as Jin had the materials and design plans to do so. They could be Jin's personal bodyguards back in his world and having a squad always ready to move on his command will allow him to focus more on the creation of dungeons rather than going into danger himself. A bad habit of his but the System appreciates how its user was able to be in exciting situations that most of its previous users were unable to get into.
It regrets keeping the ideology of a single human trying to conquer the entire region just to win against the existing Royal Zodiacs and not thinking of expanding itself to other branches of life. If not for Ming's foolish attempt to fight against the Royal Zodiacs in the past which required the System to rollback in time so that the consequences of its actions were not carried over, the System believed that its choice of choosing one person and forcing him/her to do its bidding might spell the end of the Panda Clan. (Granted, if Jin did not have any descendants, that would also be the end of the System as well... though the System knows that it at least had a decent last run judging from the current slew of events.)
"The Forest Trolls should be weak to fire. Even if they were not blasted into smithereens, at least they would have their regeneration halted, giving the Grey Bear Squad some opening to perform their objective." Jin said to the System and it relayed the information to Yinn, hoping that she could make the decisions for herself.
"Wouldn't it be better if they set the entire place on fire?" Denise asked as a side note, seeing how she was right beside him organising the issues that were besieging Jin, thus causing Jin to be distraught and use the Grey Bear situation as an outlet of distraction.
"That will reduce the amount of cover the Grey Bears can use. Besides, I first hand saw how the destruction of forests just makes things more difficult for us as well. The consistent smoke creates cover for the enemies- though I understand we have better optical imaging but it's a different story if you are sending troops to fight. They would also be suffering within that particular environment."
"That was why I thought it was a bad idea to only allow your Grey Bear squad to fight. It would have been safer in bigger numbers."
"Har! You underestimate my Grey Bear squad. They alone had massacred hundreds of Mechanoids. This is nothing. All they had to do is to treat those Forest Trolls as fellow Mechanoids and they would be able to kill them in a jiffy." Jin purposely opened the communication channel for the Grey Bears squad to hear without much context but Denise immediately shoved Jin into more paperwork telling him not to get distracted if he was so confident of his Grey Bears.
"Easy for you to say." Yinn thought within her head as she received confirmation that they were able to shoot a few volleys of artillery fire to aid in their objective to destroy the monster lure. However, a maximum range had been set by Jin as well as the military assisting them to prevent the destruction of the dungeon entrance.
"At the very least we have better firepower than I thought," Yinn said to herself as she reloaded her assault rifle and started to set a course towards the probable site of the monster lure.
"Tellie. Do not fire that huge 'magical' beam of yours until I tell you. Diaz, You and I are going to rush through the forest as much as possible I will create as much cover fire for you. We will be riding the Mechanical Hounds that Click has until we find our mission objective. Lynn, I need you to cause as much havoc as you can while protecting Tellie. Page, Boost us as much as possible and later aid Lynn."
"Your brilliant plan is to rush in blind?" Diaz said as she smacked one of the Forest Trolls with her shotgun before taking another shot at it. It was then, that a new upgrade card emerged from her console, showing the best ever possible combination for her. Gunzerker: Enables Mechanoid Diaz to auto reload her shotguns as long as she is holding two or more weapons at the same time.
Immediately, she agreed on the usage of the upgrade card enabling her to see little tiny sockets opening from her wrist and popping out ammunition the moment her shotgun was empty. There, she saw a loader where the moment she placed her shotgun close to it, shells popped into her gun instantly, causing instant gratification and the reloading time had lessened down to less than a second.
"Hahahaha! I take my words back! Rush in blind?" My fucking pleasure! I would love to see how these two baddies on my hands can perform with a new perk I just got!" Diaz said as she felt like she was in a frenzy mode at that point in time. "Oh and Yinn, make sure you bring enough ammunition for me!"
