Chapter 32: The 32nd Iron Pillar
Gunpowder smoke filled the sky, and the grey sky looked like a dark rain could fall at any time.
The train nets are crisscrossed, like the tattered fishing nets used by fishermen for a long time. Some lines are tangled together to form a dark node.
At a certain moment, a gorgeous flower bloomed at a certain node.
Under the dark sky, the flowers of flames are gorgeous and that's not some showman playing, that's the site blowing up.
"It seems that someone, like us, chose to go by an empty road." New Moon stood by the window they
"They have little chance of success." Gong Chengzhou once again sighed about his good luck, "The goddess of luck finally remembers her faithful believers!"
Yes, Gong Chengzhou felt that he was lucky.
If he hadn't met the new moon, since he only had a flying board under his feet and the damage to his light armour was as high as 80%, maybe he really couldn't escape.
Even if it was dangerous and escaped, how could it be so comfortable now?
Catherine was looking at the area information, "A group of people has just been eliminated, the number is around 20, and there are currently 154 contestants left on the field."
At this time, the speed of the train slowed down because there was a station ahead.
"What's this for? Didn't it say that the terminal was at the base camp?" Gong Chengzhou was puzzled.
Ruan Qianqiu glanced at him sideways, "You will also say the terminal, now this is the halfway stop."
Gong Chengzhou choked.
"That may be loading and unloading goods." Xinyue felt that it was not a big problem, "Don't panic, we are wearing light armour, even if a group of soldiers come up from below, they will pass by us at most and won't do anything to us. ."
This is a holographic world, and even though the data is real, it's not real.
The new moon has figured out certain patterns.
For example, if the enemy's light armour is worn, the data-generated enemy will treat them as the same kind.
The train slowed down and stopped slowly.
The platform is spherical, and the train coming from afar is like a greedy snake that climbs on the ball, trying to entangle the ball with its slender body.
The doors opened, and soldiers came up at all the platform entrances that docked with the doors.
Crescent sat on the locker, looking out through the little window of the car.
Looking at it, Xinyue felt that something was wrong, "How do you feel..."
However, before he finished speaking, Xinyue heard a commotion.
Turning to look, it turned out that the soldier who had just gotten into the car had fought with one of them.
The opponent's attack was swift and violent, like a flame bursting out of a furnace, and John was thrown to the ground in two or three blows.
The public was riding a boat not far away, and he came to support him quickly.
But in this case, it is definitely—
"Warning, warning! An intruder is found in the Z9 car, please clean it up quickly." The train broadcast sounded.
"Hey! Classmates, don't hurt yourself." Gong Chengzhou said quickly.
The opponent stopped.
"Classmate, I think you need a set of light armour." Ruan Qianqiu was happy, but he didn't expect to meet his people here, "Just now, we left a few more sets."
"Hurry up and let him change to light armour." Xinyue Jump off the cargo box.
Her voice is very recognizable, like a stream that is about to freeze in early winter, beautiful and cold.
The body of the soldier who just came up and overturned John shook, "Sir!"
As soon as this gorgeous stage voice came out, even if the light armour had not been lifted, Xinyue knew who it was.
The train would stop at the platform for about two or three minutes, and it was obvious that Elvis had arrived too early.
The clothes on his body are different. As soon as he comes up, the alarm is triggered directly. It is as if the siren of the battle horn is carried far away by the breeze.
The batch of aliens loading and unloading goods on the platform froze, and the next moment, they put down their work at the same time, copied out their weapons and headed for the train.
The door connecting the Z9 carriage to the platform was jointly handled by John, Catherine, and Ken.
This door is relatively easy to defend, and the frame next to it is equivalent to a shield, which can quickly find cover when the enemy attacks, and is also convenient for cover shooting.
Several others followed the crescent moon to the train in front.
Crescent Moon told as he walked, "Avis, remember to throw your light armour out of the car."
Okay!"
Here, a hit and a hit.
Less than two minutes later, the alarm went off.
Crescent Moon looked back and happened to see Aivis withdraw his hand from the window after throwing away his light armour.
It seems appropriate.
"Sir!" Elvis hurriedly walked to the crescent moon.
Avis was overjoyed to see the new moon here.
New Moon: "Where're your teammates?"
"They're not good enough, they've all been eliminated." Elvis was disdainful.
Xinyue has a good idea, so she doesn't ask any more questions.
Tengri Military Academy, holographic control room.
In this control room, countless light screens are unfolded, and each light screen is constantly reflecting the scene, which may be in the alley, maybe on the top of the shopping mall, or maybe in a remote corner of the station.
But everywhere, there is one thing in common in this picture.
That is, to be able to see cadets!
At this moment, several mentors turned their attention to an eight-person team.
"I didn't expect their alliance to be very stable. I thought they would break up halfway." A mentor laughed.
"That hybrid worker bee is called Crescent Moon, right? She's really good. It's the first time I've seen a freshman with such leadership skills. She looks like a natural leader."
"It seems that they should be the group of people."
Mock war zone.
The train continued to move forward with a clatter, piercing the wind and smashing through the gunpowder smoke, like a beast aiming at its prey, rushing forward excitedly.
To shorten the game time as much as possible, this area was not set very large.
From one diagonal corner of the city to the other, it only takes two hours on the sky train.
Not to mention that everyone got on the bus at the central position.
After more than half an hour, the train carrying the goods finally arrived at its terminal.
As the distance keeps getting closer, the distant scene seems to be zoomed in with a magnifying glass.
It can be seen that the high-rise buildings on this side have gotten rid of the word "incomplete", and a triangular, fort-like solid giant building is raised in the center.
"Tccentret be the triangle base." Gong Chengzhou was excited.
In the first stage, they only had to break through the control room at the top of the triangle to win.
The goal is now in sight.
"What shall we do later? Are we going downstairs to grab their light armour?" Ruan Qianqiu stood by the window and looked down.
Catherine touched her chin and disagreed, "It's not easy to pretend to be like them when we get here.
" A beast with fangs and claws just wants to tell the intruder that he is not to be messed with.
The train has started to slow down.
There are also circular stops in this area, and if they miss the stop time, the train will go back.
New Moon pondered, and said after a while, "How much energy spar do you have?"
Everyone took out their stock.
All the energy spars are sparsely clustered together, colourful, like gems left by a dragon.
Thanks to the previous camouflage, there's plenty left in stock now.
"Enough is enough, let's go hard." New Moon also felt that the disguise was impractical.
Just now, she saw at least several heavy patrols.
Their purpose was the control room at the tip of the triangle, and it was all the way there, and it was impossible to stay in one place for too long.
Pretending is not practical.
New Moon continued: "But since this is the base camp, I think it must have more heavy equipment, we can try to find the mecha."
"Arrived at the station!"
At the moment when the double doors of the train opened, Like migratory birds eager to move south, and like flying fish swimming in the water, the group of New Moon got out of the car neatly.
This is the air platform, there are a large number of aliens around, when the new moon and them come, the entire platform is suddenly wrapped by the sound of warning.
"Warning, warning! There is an enemy invasion at the platform, please clear it up quickly."
The aliens who were patrolling or carrying goods turned their guns in the same direction.
The mechanical beast that was on standby in the dark had a red light on its eyes at the same time, and a small mechanical bird popped out its wings as sharp as a sickle from its stomach.
The sound of fire followed.
The set of light armour that armour ever been used was finally activated by the new moon.
Countless tiny pieces of metal flew out like meteors, wrapping the crescent moon around him in the blink of an eye.
She seemed to have become a robot, with a cold light shining on her light armour, and in the smoke of gunfire, this cold light turned into a sharp knife that slashed obstacles.
Headed by the new moon, with Gong Chengzhou and Katherine as the flanks, everyone worked together to tear open the encirclement.
This air station platform is connected to the triangle base by an air bridge, and you can go up to the triangle base by taking the air bridge.
After getting off the car, Xinyue and the others did not dare to delay running there for a moment.
The bees are a race that is good at flying, but in this virtual battlefield where artillery fire is flying, and if they are hit, they may be judged dead, no one dares to be careless.
Running over the air bridge, their distance from the opposing triangle keeps getting shorter.
Always, Ruan Qianqiu, and Shen Guo, who were in charge of the rear, worked together to deploy their only defensive weapon that was on the table.
The milky white mask is like half an eggshell, tightly blocking the artillery fire from the rear.
The energy bullets hit the pale-coloured mask like hail, with a deafening sound.
"This firepower is damn powerful." Aivis turned back and saw an obvious fine line cracked on the mask.
They are still more than 100 meters away from the triangle barrier. If there are no other accidents, with the protective mask they have now, they should be able to reach the opposite side safely.
But the premise is that there are no other surprises.
"Boom!"
A steel mountain suddenly swelled up on the ground, and the behemoth rising from the ground was like a giant beast awakening from a deep sleep, indifferent and irritable.
"Fuck, it's a mecha!" Gong Chengzhou looked at the mecha that was more than 70 meters tall and couldn't help but swear.
A steel arm of the giant mecha was rapidly deformed in the process of lifting, the parts were displaced, and its fingers disappeared.
After the parts were gradually reorganized, the right hand of the mech was replaced by a giant light cannon.
The inner ring of the light tube with a diameter of ten meters is illuminated with a circle of red energy circles.
"No, it's going to attack!" Ken staggered in fright.
Of course, the attack range of heavy weapons is not small. If they are fired like this, let alone them, even the entire air walkway under their feet will be shattered.
New Moon's eyes narrowed.
"Even if we are eliminated here, the score should not be low. After all, we are almost at the triangle base." Shen Guo smiled bitterly.
"Sir!" Elvis exclaimed suddenly.
Shen Guo, who was next to him, raised his head subconsciously when he heard the sound, and then saw a scene that made him stunned -
the mixed-race little worker bee who was running at the front jumped out of this air bridge.
A huge black and red wing popped out from behind her, and there seemed to be red flames burning at the tip of the wing, cutting the smoke that filled the perimeter of the long bridge.
Aivis saw the crescent moon go to the mecha, and without a moment's hesitation, he unfolded his thin wings and followed.
"What's the matter with you?" Gong Chengzhou was very anxious.
Xinyue didn't care about the back, she only knew that she was thinking about looking for a mecha before, and now the mecha is delivered to her door.
It is estimated that the target was detected to have left the ground, and the thighs on both sides of the giant mecha opened, releasing a group of black mechanical raptors.
The sound of the wind seemed to be infinitely amplified.
The flame-like fireworks exploded in the air, like a naughty child, setting firecrackers recklessly.
The speed of the crescent moon was extremely fast. When a mechanical bird of prey approached, she suddenly raised the height, stepped on the back of the mechanical bird, and kicked it hard.
"Hey—" The
fine lines spread from the soles of the crescent moon's feet, shrouding the mechanical bird like a large net with fangs.
The mechanical bird let out a mournful cry as if it was the poor prey bitten by the beast.
The next moment, the mechanical bird was unable to get rid of it and shattered into pieces directly in the air.
Stepping on a group of "clouds" with a cold texture, a gorgeous spark blooms every not too far along the way of the new moon, which is a bit of the beauty of the ancient lotus myth.
The new moon soon came to the belly of the mecha. It was taught in military school. The depths of this place were embedded with the pilot's control cabin.
If you want the mecha to change hands, this place must be broken open.
She raised the laser sword that she had prepared for a long time, the laser started, and a straight red light popped up.
Raise the sword and swing forward.
"Clang-"
A sound similar to a metal collision, and a sound like a collision between high-temperature hot air and a glass barrier sounded.
"Crumble." The laser sword in New Moon's hand began to shatter from the top.
Small red rays of light fell from the sky sporadically, like blood and tears from the gods.
The new moon was stunned and did not expect the laser sword in his hand to be so useless.
It was just such a blow, and it was directly scrapped.
On the other hand, the mecha recovery cabin she attacked did not even leave a trace.
"Sir, be careful!" The
new moon stretched out, and the wings on the back were lowered, and he immediately lowered his height.
"Bang blah blah."
The spot where she had been just now was filled with flames.
The crescent moon looked sideways and saw that there was a place on the side arm of the mecha that moved rows of guns. The dark holes were eerie, like a bottomless snake cave.
"My lord, this is the HJ-3 mecha. It is the latest model on the market. It is made of constant-light material with excellent hardness. Weapons such as laser swords and photon cannons will do zero damage to it." Ai, who arrived later Weiss said hastily.
New Moon didn't know that this mecha was new.
"Sir, let's go back first," Elvis was holding a flying blade knife he didn't know where it came from.
As soon as Xuan'er's knife came out, the surrounding mechanical birds that tried to get close had their wings cut off.
But he can only defend against mechanical birds. There is no way for Aivis to defend such large weapons as mechas.
Xinyue pursed her lips, to be honest, she was not reconciled.
They are all in front of the control cabin. Now that I go back, doesn't everything before that fall short?
"Elvis, cover me." New Moon suddenly raised his voice.
Under Aivis' shocked gaze, she removed the light armour on her arm, revealing a pair of white hands that were weaker than any weapon.
The five fingers, which are as white as suet, are like tender green onions. It seems that with a little force, a thin section of bone can be broken.
Out of the corner of Avis's eyes, he saw a row of guns that were lit up with blue light and were accumulating energy.
Gritting his teeth, the red-eyed drone still rushed forward. At this moment, Elvis never thought that any miracle would happen.
He had already thought about it, the last light shield in his hand could last for a few seconds.
After the light shield cracked, it was a big deal for him to help His Royal Highness in front of him and let her go quickly.
But apparently, Ives doesn't understand the new moon yet.
After New Moon lifted the light armour on her hands, the fine cyan scales began to burn from between her fingers, covering her hands.
"Buh!" The
sharp fingertips turned into sharp knives, and in the accompaniment of the war song by the harsh sound, little by little they sank into the latest mecha.
This is a holographic world, and the new moon does not know whether certain values in this world have ceilings.
But still have to try.
Tengri Military Academy, holographic control room.
"My God, what is she doing!" Someone suddenly exclaimed.
The other instructors in the control room looked over one after another.
A light screen was selected and zoomed in again and again.
In the light screen, the huge mecha stood beside the triangle barrier, and the entire right hand of the mecha had turned into a giant photon cannon, which seemed nothing at first glance.
everything is normal.
But when the picture got closer again, everyone finally realized that something was wrong.
There was a hole in the abdomen of this heavy weapon. It is said that the constant light material of the S-level defence capability is like tofu, and there is no hardness at all.
"I saw someone go in, who is that?" One of the instructors couldn't sit still, "Play back the screen and retrieve the information!"
A freeze-frame light screen quickly popped up from the side.
In the light screen, the figures of Crescent Moon and Aivis were locked by the red cursor. After locking, a small light frame popped up next to them.
[A, 24, New Moon]
[A, 30, Elvis]
"So it's her!"
This tone was not as surprising as before.
"After so many interracial competitions, it's the first time I've seen a student grab a mecha in this way."
"No matter what, she did succeed. The future of this little worker bee is immeasurable..."
Qin Jing Zhe stood in front of the light screen and was about to recall the scene just now and watch it again, but suddenly saw a red triangle light up in the centre of the main control panel in front of him.
This is a warning sign.
[Warning: The player's mental power is too high, please re-adjust the parameter value]
Qin Jingzhe's eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly re-adjusted the parameters.
If the highest parameter value is breached, the entire virtual world will collapse.
Simulate a war zone.
Aivis was a little stunned. He didn't understand how he entered the control cabin of the mecha just now.
Is the constant light material used in this mech a fake?
But it shouldn't be possible this is holographic it is a venue or a weapon and is determined by parameters.
Is there something wrong with the parameters?
Elvis looked confused.
The space in the mecha cockpit is not small, more than enough to accommodate two people.
After throwing the alien in the main seat out, the new moon took the main seat, and Avis, who was still in a daze, wan the co-pilot.
I came to the military school for more than a week, and I have classes almost all day every day. The number of intensive courses makes education progress quickly.
The basic operation of the mecha has been learned.
If there is no small stove that Qin Jingzhe opened for her, Xinyue will only control the mecha to walk a few steps or complete the action of raising her hand.
And now...
on the air bridge.
"It's not moving." Ken's eyes widened slightly, "What happened over there, is the crescent moon okay now?" The
place just now exploded with flames one after another, and a large number of mechanical birds disintegrated directly in the air, blasting out A lot of dust and fog, and now that small area seems to be trapped in fog, and the visibility is extremely low.
"It stopped!" Ken was excited.
In the confused haze, the giant photon cannon that was lit up and had its muzzle facing the air bridge went out in circles.
It went out.
In the next instant, the spell on the mecha that had been immobilized was lifted.
Its huge right hand, which had become a weapon, was deformed again, and the large or small armour pieces were reassembled and transformed again, and soon its right hand appeared again.
Gong Chengzhou was stunned, "This trend, did the new moon enter the control cabin?"
Ruan Qianqiu whistled, "The squad leader is amazing."
And this HJ-3 mecha answered the question of the public boat with practical actions.
The mecha is more than 70 meters tall. It should have been bulky due to its height, but after restarting, the bulky feeling was like dirt attached to the eaves, washed clean by sudden heavy rain.
A giant laser sword almost as high as the mecha was activated, shining brightly, s if it had turned into a dazzling sun in this foggy world.
"It, what does it want to do..." Ken's voice trembled, subconsciously excited and shocked.
Kane knew it soon enough—
under the watchful eye, the giant mecha clutched a long laser sword in both hands, and it seemed to be a determined warrior, slashing with a cloud-piercing, stone-piercing state. Triangle to the front.
The light is quite dazzling, making people subconsciously avoid the edge.
"Boom!" The
triangle base was divided into two, and the top part that lost its supporting point was earth roaring, like the deafening wailing of a beast being hit.
Aivis' pupils tightened in the passenger seat, and the excitement from the bottom of his heart spread to every corner along the nerve endings.
Excited, excited, and indescribable pride.
Later, every time I've recalled, he felt that this neat, like a sword, cut the history of the bee clan in half.
Ahead is the dark age of chaos and depression, ostracized and swallowed, and the blood and tears of warriors fall on the wasteland that no one cares about.
Useless and graceful music rang out in the lavish palace, and the laughter of unknowing pain ironically became the eulogy of the dead.
Later—
his majesty's sword seemed to cut through the dark curtain shrouded in the sky, and the entire bee clan ushered in unprecedented brilliance.
