Draiss had watched the driller for a moment, before sitting down, and waiting five minutes. At that point, he reached over and turned off his driller unit, which only had power for about half an hour of continuous drilling, and slipped it back into the pouch from before. Heading on, he paused to examine the debris, and collected several pieces from his own units, who had clearly fallen back before collecting the damaged torso pieces. Three were intact enough to still have protected the AI, and one was possible, though it would have to be checked for coding damage. The fifth was gone, its power core, backup power core, and the circuits that contained it had been cored, clearly the first casualty, judging by its placement in the middle of the turn, and had probably been hit by multiple attackers as it incautiously rounded the corner, believing the site to be deserted. He shook his head, portaled the four intact and semi intact torsos out for repair and debriefing, requesting the destroyed unit be brought up from its backup in storage, and that the survey teams be reminded that when entering a ruin, to always treat it as a hostile base, though the inhabitants should be given a chance to show their intentions before engaging.<br/><br/>That done, he turned to the two death sqaud units that had finally arrived, and took the sniper rifle from one of them, and switched it to sonic damage, before powering it up. He sent an illusion around the corner first, checking their intentions, and letting them fire first, before he slipped the edge of the rifle around the corner, and fired three shots, first into the ceiling turret, and then one shot each into the sniper units, aiming to destroy the sensitive servos near the weapons that allowed precision firing. That done, he jerked back around the corner, before sighing and shaking his head. "Something says they don't wanna be friendly. Get the base to send us a grenade launcher. Gonna need it to clear those corners."
