the only savior

Chapter 887 Lonely trip to the moon

"Da da da da da da da~"

The sound of heavy machine guns sounded in the carriage made of titanium alloy.

A large amount of yellow blood instantly burst out from the body of the scythe insect that was rushing towards it, spraying it on the nearby ground, corroding it into large holes.

This is a special bullet modified by the Hurricane Bureau.

Even though the carapace of the barren insect is thick, it can still cause effective damage at such a short distance.

However, before Tony and Ottos could breathe a sigh of relief, another monster rushed in from behind.

Looking through the torn gap, there are dense black insects and beasts.

This scene can't help but make people's scalp tingle.

The two now also know that at this point, they are already dead.

"Ahh! Beasts! Let me die!!"

Ottos pressed the trigger and fired wildly at the sickle insects in front of him.

Knowing that he must die, he no longer has any illusions about living.

What he wants to do now is to kill a few more bugs before he dies, at least to avenge the Apollo team.

"Da da da da da da da~"

The sound of machine gun fire seemed to be the last sound of this moment, and it was the last movement played by these two people on this planet.

However, with the damage of the walls and the reduction of air, this movement has become weaker and weaker.

"Bah!"

More bugs tore through the warehouse wall, struggling to break in.

Facing enemies from all sides, Ottos simply couldn't take care of everything.

I am afraid that in just a few seconds, they will be thrown down by the bugs and usher in death.

From the outside, the slow-moving base vehicle was already covered in bugs, and the surrounding area was a sea of ​​black, which was daunting.

With such a large number of insect swarms, even if they were lined up for Ottos to kill, his ammunition would not be enough to fight them.

At this time, perhaps blocked by the worms, or affected by the magnetic field of the Gun of Longinus, the base vehicle began to slow down slowly, and finally stopped moving.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Othos' roar continued.

It's just that the bullets in the machine gun have been fired, and there is no more flame coming out of the muzzle of the gun. The scene is silent and quite embarrassing.

"I, we didn't die...?"

Tony reacted first, and looked around in disbelief.

I saw a messy scene around, and the walls of the base vehicle had been dismantled by bugs.

It's like a honeycomb, full of holes.

However, what was strange was that the swarm of insects that had besieged them just now disappeared without a trace, as if they had suddenly disappeared.

It was quiet inside the car.

If the base car hadn't been completely scrapped, they might have thought that what happened just now was just a dream.

"What about the bugs?"

Otos also opened his eyes at this time, with the same expression on his face as Tony.

He dropped the empty machine gun and felt pain in his arm.

Both hands were about to lose consciousness from the shock of the machine gun.

"There they are!"

Tony suddenly pointed at the position behind the base vehicle and shouted.

Otos couldn't care less about the pain, he pushed open the damaged hatch and looked back.

I saw that the dense black swarm did not leave, but was separated from the two by about a hundred meters, just watching.

I glanced around, and sure enough, all these guys were there, and there were no other bugs left or right.

"What's going on...they...why don't they come...?"

Tony also came out, looking at the swarm of insects in the distance, full of puzzlement.

Othos glanced back at the spear of Longinus standing in the distance, and seemed to have a faint understanding in his heart.

"They seem to be afraid of that."

The conclusion is obvious.

Because on this barren planet, there is nothing but that gun.

"It was the spear of Longinus, it really was the spear of Longinus that saved us! Hahahaha! So this is its secret! It is used to suppress insects and beasts, so it is! So it is! Hahahaha!! "

Hysterical laughter came from Othos' mouth.

After going through this life-and-death crisis, he just felt relieved.

As if a heavy burden had been lifted, I just wanted to sit on the ground and laugh without thinking about anything.

Tony on the side was also affected by this emotion, and also laughed out loud.

The two were like two lunatics, laughing without any scruples in this barren land.

In the end, he bent over laughing, lost his breath from laughing, and lay down on the ground.

After an unknown amount of time, the two regained some strength and sat up from the ground.

Not far away, the wild insects were still looking around.

They kept probing and roaring silently, as if they wanted to rush over.

But due to some reasons, but dare not do so.

"It turns out that you also have something to be afraid of."

Tony looked relieved, turned his head and glanced at the spear over there, and sighed:
"Unfortunately, we can no longer contact the command center, and we can't tell them this secret."

There was also a gloomy look in Otos' eyes.

He knew that even if the two of them escaped from the worm's pursuit now, it would be of no use.

This is the moon, and the base vehicle has been damaged. Without any supplies, they still cannot escape death.

"Let's go, we're going to die anyway, let's go and see what's so special about that gun before we die."

Tony stood up first, and then walked towards the location where the gun of Longinus was.

It's just that the moon's gravity is too low, and he was bouncing around when he walked, which didn't fit the serious and heroic atmosphere at the moment.

Ottos also followed, and the oxygen left in the two spacesuits can last for about two hours.

From here to the Gun of Longinus, it is almost two or three kilometers.

If it was changed to Water Blue Planet, walking two or three kilometers in two hours would definitely not be enough.

It's just that on the moon, it's very difficult to move, and they really don't necessarily get there.

After walking less than 200 meters, Tony suddenly stopped and looked behind, wanting to see what happened to the group of bugs.

It's just this glance that made the hairs on his body stand on end, and he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.

The bugs are coming!
They were not kept out of the range of Longinus' spear as expected, but just followed in.

Although they looked timid and hesitant, like hyenas who saw a lion on the grassland, they still came over after all.

This discovery immediately made the two of them break out in a cold sweat.

"It's not that these bugs can't get in here, they might just be afraid of that gun!"

Tony told the answer to his observation.

"We... speed up the pace... once... get used to... no longer afraid... we will..."

After speaking, his words suddenly became intermittent, because the channel of the communicator was blocked.

They knew that they should have completely entered the chaotic area of ​​the magnetic field.

Sure enough, after they walked a short distance forward, they saw a familiar figure.

That was the previously lost Voyager.

At this moment, the bugs were still following, and they seemed to be desperate to pounce on them at any time.

But the two had nothing to do about it.

He couldn't fight and fight, and couldn't run away, so he could only speed up his pace and try to get closer to the position of Longinus' gun.

Many of the functions attached to spacesuits are now discontinued.

Not only is the communication channel unavailable, but the temperature inside the spacesuit is getting lower and lower, leaving only the most basic oxygen supply.

But because it can't generate an effective cycle, the duration of persistence will be greatly shortened, and I am afraid that the time left for them will not exceed half an hour.

This is the last half hour of their lives, and the two need to complete an incredible journey of walking more than one kilometer on the moon.

Silence, loneliness, darkness, coldness, despair.

On the moon, Tony and Ottos are in the last moments of their lives.

Every step taken is a moment that symbolizes that the countdown to death is getting closer.

"Huhuhu~"

Otos was having difficulty breathing by this time.

His spacesuit is light and combat-oriented, and the amount of oxygen it carries is far less than Tony's ordinary model, and he is already obviously feeling strenuous at this moment.

Carbon dioxide and low temperature filled his body, making it difficult for him to hold on any longer, and he fell to the ground as soon as he saw a flower.

There was no air around, so Tony didn't notice the movement behind him.

He only saw this scene when he routinely observed the position of the bug swarm.

But there was nothing he could do about it.

He could only salute silently to the other party, and then continued his steps.

Now, he was really the only one left.

He was a little afraid to look at the scene behind, for fear that when he turned around, he would see the terrifying scene of his companion being eaten by insects.

No one knew what kind of psychological pressure he was bearing at the moment, even he himself couldn't explain the feeling.

Now the only motivation to support Tony to go on is the spear in front of him.

"Spear of Longinus, what kind of secrets are you hiding... For you, we have died so many people... Is it really worth it..."

Hallucinations began to appear in front of Tony's eyes, his brain went blank, and his feet began to stagger.

Finally, he still fell down, falling less than 50 meters away from the spear.

But he didn't give up, but crawled bit by bit, trying to touch the spear that made him lose everything.

However, the human body has limits after all.

Even under the stimulation of adrenaline, Tony failed to perform miracles, and finally stopped 30 meters away from the spear.

In a trance, he felt that the spear in front of him seemed to move.

Luck looked there with all his strength, and it turned out to be just an illusion.

The spear was still inserted 30 meters away and did not move.

The movement just now seemed to come from another silver-white figure.

wait!Silver and white figure! ?

Tony woke up suddenly, with an unbelievable light in his eyes.

He raised his head with difficulty, and looked at the behemoth in front of him.

It was a silver-white mech. It was tall and straight, about 20 meters high. On the domineering and hideous armor, you could see the muzzles of large and small guns.

At the head position, a blue light shot out from his eyes, shining on his body, giving Tony a feeling of being seen through everything.

At this moment, the mecha stood proudly in front of him, beside the spear of Longinus, looking down at him like a god.

"Mech...mech...?"

Tony's eyes widened and he was speechless.

He thought about all kinds of possibilities.

The gun of prophecy, the relics of the gods, the weapons of aliens...

But the only thing that didn't connect it with the mecha in front of him.

This world is not without the concept of mechs, but it still only stays in animation and film and television works.

He always thought that although the mecha is very handsome, it is basically impossible to realize it in reality.

It does not mean that human technology cannot create it in the future.

With the advancement of science and technology, it is possible to create more advanced weapons, not to mention this kind of mecha.

Tony just felt that, judging from normal technological needs, there was no prerequisite for its birth.

Compared with building a mecha that moves in human form, it is better to just build a small drone with a weapon launch port.

The former is more strenuous to move, requiring a large number of parts to be used for mobility, stability, coordination, etc., are unnecessary projects.

The latter not only has the same powerful weapons, but also is more flexible, the target is smaller, and the mobility is also strong, so there is no need to waste materials on extra limbs.

Therefore, things like mechs only appear in the plot of movies.

With the development of science and technology in reality, there is no chance of it appearing.

However, now a pure white mecha with a height of 20 meters was standing in front of him, which already showed that his previous judgments were all wrong.

"It's also possible that this is not a mecha, but an alien..."

An idea popped up in Tony's mind, but it didn't matter anymore.

The important thing is that he finally knew what was hidden on the back of the moon.

"So that's it...is this gun its weapon..."

A look of relief appeared on Tony's face.

It's just that this relief was mixed with some doubts.

Even with a 20-meter-long mecha, using such a giant spear with a length of [-] meters seems a bit uncoordinated...

But he had no time to think about it.

In other words, his body does not allow him to think more.

Tony couldn't hold it any longer, and passed out as soon as his eyes went dark.

Ahead, the blue light in the mech's eyes retracted again.

In the cab inside, a blond man is reporting to the base.

"Here is Guardian No. 1. I am Saul. I have found the target. There is still one person alive. Let's start the rescue."

As his words fell, countless muzzles on the mech opened.

Hundreds of missiles flew out, passing through beautiful arcs, like a torrential rain, and fell directly into the swarm of insects that were about to move not far away.
