                chapter 6

                --------

   Entering into the darkness Garrett raised his hand,
giving a sign to stop. Some time
All listen intently and gave
eyes adjust to the dim light. Then spread out and slowly moved 
forward, keeping the machines at the ready ...


   Perhaps, about the equipment the Delta must
tell apart. Each of the groups was
wearing a bulletproof vest "Turtle". These vests withstand a 
direct hit by two explosive bullets of 12 caliber. They worn 
over the head, thus closing the front and rear, and thus 
combined the currently two important qualities: strength and 
lightness. Automatic weapons are also quite met the goals and 
objectives of the Delta. Machines more like guns, only a few 
inches long. They were equipped with a laser sight and a 
powerful lens, so that if necessary, to replace the sniper 
rifle. Each fighter has 4 stores in 30 rounds. In addition to 
the machines all had guns, "Phoenix", not inferior in power 
"Magnum". Also every five had one

portable granotometu "Cobra" and a few grenades to it. 
Naturally, all armament was not a serial sample was carried out 
only for special units such as "Delta" and is a leading

achievements in military science and technology.

   Meanwhile a detachment Garrett moved
almost a hundred meters deep without special
complications. Suddenly, the tunnel turned sharply to the right 
and the astonished gaze of fighters opened a tortuous passage, 
slightly illuminated by diffused artificial light, seemed to 
come from the depth of the walls. Giving a signal to stop, 
Garett few minutes listening to the ringing silence. Nothing

violated the age-old peace dungeon, none
sound from the outside did not reach here. Not found
anything suspicious, Garrett motioned to continue the movement. 
The Panel carefully adhering to the side wall, stepped in the 
dim oval. Which went for Bill Mack Greddi suddenly touched his 
elbow and eye showed a metallic object, tusknevshy distance. 
While Garrett pondered this fact, Greddi suddenly made a couple 
of steps to the side and leaned over poluzasypannoy godsend. 
There was a quiet click and Mack stood, staring in fright at 
the commander. Top dropped a few small pebbles, and he heard a 
muffled buzz. Ryavknuv: "Get down!" Garett lightning jumped in 
feet stunned Greddi, knocked him and together they rolled to 
the opposite wall. After a second space is filled with heavy 
machine guns rattle, Beat top crossfire. Champing, bullets 
crushed hard limestone and filled the air with choking dust. 
Shooting lasted fifteen seconds - twenty

then all was quiet.

   Slowly raising his head, Garrett looked around but saw 
nothing because of the hanging wall of dust. Rubbing with one 
hand immediately zaslezivshiesya eyes, he fumbled another swarm 
together and desperately coughing Mac. Grabbing him by the 
collar and pulled up to the itself, huskily Garett hissed at 
him: "You that son of a bitch, get up! Forgot what you 
learned?!. Greddi illegible, interspersed with coughing and 
muttering excuses. Not listening to him, Bill took out a 
miniature priborchik and pressed the button. After a few 
seconds on the front panel, one after another flashed four 
green lights. He sighed with relief. Soon, when the dust a bit 
settled and the visibility became bearable, Bill saw three 
frozen the other wall of the silhouette. Almost in a whisper 
Garrett ordered to move forward, keeping the sides of the 
tunnel, it is fair to assume that Detector predominantly 
located in the middle. Again, five silent ghosts continued his 
dangerous journey, became for them the seventh circle of hell 
... 


   Passing a dangerous place, the detachment stopped and 
Garrett tried to contact with the colonel. However, because 
this scheme did not work, all filled monotonous frequency noise 
interference. Stopping the futile attempts, he gave the command 
to make a short rest, and sat down to ponder a way forward. 
What they discovered and will soon be made a second attempt to 
destroy them, no doubt. Communication with the outside world is 
interrupted and this is also not improves mood. However, they 
are all alive and are determined to go through. Nevertheless, 
he clearly soznoval that wage war in such extraordinary 
circumstances, in an underground labyrinth, almost devoid of 
natural cover, and the complete absence of opportunities to 
perform any maneuvers - will be extremely difficult and 
probably not without loss do ...
