Martin needed some time to catch his breath, as while the sniper rifle wasn't a problem to carry for humans, it was a very heavy load for a small electric squirrel. He then realized that yes, the rifle didn't come with a silencer, and if Xie used it, the whole town would hear the shots. Martin figured she would either need a rifle silencer, or something to muffle the sound. And then there was the other option. Make so much noise that the raiders wouldn't ever notice another sniper rifle going off.

But if they went with that last approach, they could forget about doing this operation quietly. But even so, Martin knew they were running out of time. Sooner or later, they would know the sentries were eliminated and once they discovered that, the whole town might go on full alert.

Once he managed to catch his breath and take a moment of rest before heading back into the compound, he followed Xie's advice. Take out as many raiders as quietly and as carefully as possible without getting caught. For Martin, that wasn't going to be quite so easy. Electric attacks were bright, noisy, and they might not even deal enough damage to fatally injure a raider unless he really overloaded them with voltage. And even if he could, he only had so much electric energy available before he ran out and needed time to recharge.

Major portions of the base were made of scrap metal, which would be a good conductor, however. As Martin took a look around, he decided to focus on doing that. Zap multiple raiders as once, and hope that might just take out enough of them for Xie and Taylor to make their next moves.

It wasn't going to be easy, however.
