Interstellar: Start as a cleaner

James also received intelligence, which contained information about the mecha driven by John Lee. John Lee drove a tenth-generation mecha manufactured by Titan Company of the Alliance.

Of course, this tenth-generation mecha is a model from the Alliance, and the exported one is definitely not as high-performance as the one used by the Alliance military itself.

The tenth-generation mecha is already an obsolete model in the Alliance, but in the Federation, it is considered a top-level mecha.

As mentioned earlier, most companies in the Federation do not have the ability to manufacture mechas themselves. Other companies will not buy those that have the ability to manufacture them, which has caused the Federation's mecha level to lag far behind the Empire and the Alliance.

The tenth-generation mecha exported by Titan Company is code-named Thai Blade. This mecha is a multi-purpose mecha with different configurations for different customers.

James does not have the specific parameters of John Lee's mecha, but it doesn't matter because it is just a tenth-generation mecha.

"The Pufferfish Mercenary Group made a lot of money this time."

"John Lee, this bastard, caused me to pay more money. If I had known that you, this bastard, only used one mecha to travel, I would not have looked for the A-level mercenary group." James now regrets it a little, because the task issued is an A-level task.

The Puffer Mercenary Group is an A-level mercenary group of the Mercenary Union, ranking 36th in the Free Mercenary Union.

The Free Mercenary Union calculates the ranking according to the task registration points, and the task reward is one point for one alliance credit point.

The reason for using credit points is that the currency of the alliance is stable.

The accumulated points in the calculation cycle of one year reach 100,000 points for the F-level mercenary group, 1 million for the D-level mercenary group, 5 million for the C-level mercenary group, 10 million for the B-level mercenary group, and 50 million for the A-level mercenary group.

This is the ranking and calculation method of mercenary groups below A-level. One year is a calculation cycle. If this score is not reached in this year, the ranking or even the level will be lowered.

The Mercenary Union is urging these mercenary groups to accept tasks.

S-level and above do not use this method. S-level depends on the points of a single task. A single task with more than 100 million points reaches S-level, a single task with more than 1 billion points is SS-level, a single task with more than 2 billion points is SSS-level, and a single task with more than 4 billion points is an ace mercenary group, which is permanently valid once obtained.

The same rules apply to the individual mercenary levels. When the Ashes Organization asked the mercenary group to kidnap Wang Muxue, Yang Bo, who was disguised as a mercenary, received billions of points, so Yang Bo was an ace mercenary.

The reward for the mission that the Pufferfish Mercenary Group accepted this time was 80 million.

Normally, the reward of 80 million for John Lee was a bit low, but the party that offered the reward provided intelligence throughout the process, so the Pufferfish Mercenary Group accepted this mission.

The Pufferfish Mercenary Group is on standby at a certain location, which is the only way from Xiaoyao Village to Vichy City.

In fact, after the Pufferfish Mercenary Group arrived at the standby location, they already knew who the target was.

However, the Pufferfish Mercenary Group did not know who issued the reward.

The Pufferfish Mercenary Group received the information from the union, and the leader nicknamed Thorny Pig laughed: "Brothers, we are lucky this time. The target person is just driving a mecha, haha."

"Captain, this is a good thing." The mercenary nicknamed Black Pig was also happy.

"Our target is John Lee. Legend has it that this guy is very powerful." The mercenary nicknamed White Pig was a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? It's just a tenth-generation mecha." The leader said.

"Of course, that's what I said. Everyone, follow the second plan. Black Pig, Red Pig, you have to force the other side down from the sky."

"White Pig, Poison Pig, Dolphin, you three are responsible for ground interception, pay attention to the video."

"Yellow Pig, River Pig, you two are responsible for long-range suppression." The leader issued an order.

Free mercenaries use camouflage potions when they go out on missions, which can avoid some troubles.

Some mercenaries use camouflage potions even if they are only in their own team.

"Yes!" The people of the Pufferfish Mercenary Group answered loudly.

The standby place of the Pufferfish Mercenary Group is a road train with a load of 1,000 tons, which is a locomotive and ten carriages.

As mentioned earlier, the transportation of materials in the Crimson Federation mainly relies on roads, and they are all rechargeable electric vehicles.

There are five carriages, one command carriage, one energy weapon carriage, and the rest are mecha carriages, with eight mechas in eight carriages.

Black Pig and Red Pig use air superiority mechas, which can suppress the target and force the target to lower its altitude.

The leader of the Puffer Mercenary Group is in the command car. Seeing other team members preparing, the mechas are turned on, and a laser cannon in the weapon carriage begins to charge. Of course, the train carriage is not open now.

The mechas of the Puffer Mercenary Group are lying flat in the train carriage. The train is now parked on the side of the road, not far from John Lee's manor.

The leader of the Puffer Mercenary Group saw that these subordinates were ready. The one who controlled the mecha was the core member of the mercenary group, and the rest of the members were wearing armor and holding various weapons.

The weapon carriage also prepared weapons such as micro missiles.

Half an hour later, the leader of the Puffer Mercenary Group received intelligence again, that is, the target had gone out and was flying along the highway in an air superiority mecha.

In the Crimson Federation, you cannot fly mechas or fighter jets randomly, because the land has owners, and they will not allow you to fly through their airspace. Just like other aircraft are not allowed to fly over John Lee's manor, because it is uncertain whether the aircraft will have malicious intentions.

So fighters and mechas can only fly along the public areas of the highway. Of course, these public areas need to be reported to the management company of the city where they are located, otherwise they may be mistaken for enemies by the company's warning system.

Five hundred meters on both sides of the highway belong to the public area, and there is a buffer zone of 500 meters outside 500 meters, which provides a warning buffer for private land around the highway.

Five hundred meters seems a lot, but for mecha fighters of this era, it is of no use at all.

Of course, most land owners will not build manors close to the highway, and the manor's warning system also reacts quickly.

The biggest advantage of energy weapons is that they are fast, and they will not fly for a while like artillery shells.

Yang Bo sat in the cockpit of the mecha. The mecha flew quickly at an altitude of 50 meters above the ground. Although it is an air superiority mecha, it cannot fly too high, and the attack range of the energy weapons it faces is also larger.

At an altitude of 50 meters, the mecha can be attacked within a radius of several kilometers.

Energy weapons are within visual range and have a long attack distance.

The mecha is not automatically driven, but Yang Bo drives it manually. Yang Bo looks at the data fed back by the mecha radar.

There are many cars on the road, including large road trains, some armed flying cars, and some electric cars for civilians.

Even civilians carry various weapons, even gunpowder weapons from the mother planet era.

Even civilian cars have reconnaissance radars, but the performance is different and the price is expensive.

The drivers of these cars were alert after seeing the mecha controlled by Yang Bo.

On the one hand, the mecha has strong combat power, and it can kill these civilian flying cars in seconds.

In addition, it is a tenth-generation mecha, which represents the power behind it.

Everyone can guess that the people who can control the mecha to fly in Vichy City must be people from companies like Vichy City.

"Here we go!"

"Everyone get ready!" The road train of the Puffer Mercenary Group sped on the road. When the leader saw the mecha in the radar, he immediately shared the mecha parameters with his subordinates.

The mecha driven by Yang Bo flew at a speed of 2 Mach. There is a limit on the low-altitude flight speed. Yang Bo is still a member of the Black Star Company, so he has this authority.

The rest of the people are limited to 1 Mach, which is actually for the safety of the company.

If there is no limit, the fighter planes fly at a speed of more than 10 or 20 Mach. Once a hostile force launches a sneak attack, the company will easily fail to react.

After the speed limit, the company can have more reaction time, and the warning system will also lock the speeding target in advance.

This is not only the rule in Vichy City. Some cities strictly prohibit any aircraft from flying, and even the speed on the ground is limited.

The range of 10 kilometers around Black Star Company is restricted to aircraft flying, unless permission is obtained in advance. As for the flight inside Vichy City, it is also necessary to apply for the flight route in advance, and the speed and height of the flying cars in the city are also limited.

The moment Yang Bo saw the road train on the mecha, he became more vigilant.

Although it was not the first time to see a road train, only this big guy could hide the mecha and various weapons and equipment.

"Action!" The Pufferfish Mercenary Group saw that the target mecha on the radar was getting closer and closer, and it was about to pass by, so they immediately issued an order.

First, half of the side of the weapon compartment suddenly slid to the other side, and the laser weapon inside fired at the target mecha more than a thousand meters away.

When Yang Bo saw the carriage of the road train approaching his side, he knew it was not good, and the whole mecha fell to the ground instantly.

"Warning! Warning!" A rapid alarm sounded inside Yang Bo's mecha.

He saw an energy wave passing over the mecha from the mecha radar, and then the mecha radar found that several mechas on the road train flew up instantly. He smiled in his heart and controlled the mecha to take out the energy shield.

"Okay!" The voice of the leader of the Puffer Mercenary Group came from the internal communication channel of the Puffer Mercenary Group, because the target mecha had fallen.

"Attack!"

"Ahhh!"

"Look at my laser gun!" The mercenaries driving the mecha of the Puffer Mercenary Group controlled the mecha to pounce directly on the target like ghosts and wolves howling.

Because in the eyes of these mercenaries, how could a mecha be the opponent of so many of their mechas, and there was long-range support on the road train of their own mercenary group, not only with laser cannons, but also with mercenaries holding heavy laser sniper rifles.

There was no need for any tactics or formations at all. Now it depends on who gets the head first.

Because in a mercenary group, the rewards for completing tasks cannot be evenly distributed. Whoever scores higher in each task will get a higher proportion of the rewards.

These mercenaries controlled the mechas, and the mechas fired at the target mechas with laser weapons.

While firing, these mechas rushed towards the target mechas at a very fast speed.

The mercenary leader looked at the scene and smiled slightly: "I thought the target would fly from a high altitude, but I didn't expect this guy to fly at a low altitude. This way we can save a lot of trouble!"

However, at this time, a rapid alarm sounded in the command center where the mercenary leader was.

The mercenary leader looked at the warning message on the screen, his eyes widened.

The radar of the road train was completely damaged by the attack.

It turned out that the target mecha directly used the energy weapons carried by the mecha to attack the radar of the road train during the descent.

Energy weapon attacks are actually colorless, and they are not like the lasers seen in the movies that will show rays of light.

Boom! !

The mercenary leader hadn't reacted yet when he heard a loud bang.

"Boss, that guy is coming for you!" At this time, the subordinates' urgent reports came from the internal communication channel of the mercenary group.

The command center car of the road train has a strong defense, so the sound outside cannot be heard inside the road train.

The loud noise heard inside the road train proves that the command center of the road train has been damaged!

"Damn, you idiots, all weapons attack the target!" The mercenary leader didn't expect the target to react so quickly.

I just saw the target controlling the mecha to fall to the ground, but I didn't expect something to happen the next second.

To be precise, the change happened at the same time.

"Boss...!" Several mecha masters of the Puffer Mercenary Group were also stunned.

Because when these mecha masters controlled the mecha to come out of the road train, they were full of confidence.

There are four air superiority mechas in the mecha of the mercenary group. These mechas soared into the sky and attacked the target with the mecha's laser gun at the same time.

However, the initial speed of these mechas of the mercenary group was not very high, because the mechas had just come out of the road train carriage.

Except for a few air superiority mechas, the remaining ones were ground combat mechas. These mechas jumped out of the road train carriage and landed on the ground dozens of meters away.

These mechas just jumped for the second time and saw that the target mechas actually rushed towards them instantly.

The speed of the target mecha reached Mach 5. You should know that the distance between the two sides was only more than 1,000 meters.

At this time, the mechas received information again, that is, the radar system of the road train weapon carriage was attacked.

At a distance of 1,000 meters at a speed of Mach 5, it would take less than a second to reach.

These mecha divisions of the Puffer Mercenary Group watched the target mecha directly hit the command carriage of the road train, and only then did these mecha divisions report anxiously.

Because these mecha divisions did not expect the target mecha to counterattack.

In the minds of these mecha divisions of the Puffer Mercenary Group, the target mecha should escape.

The mecha division of the Puffer Mercenary Group only had time to shout "Boss" before they saw that the command car had been broken open by the target mecha, and then they saw that the target mecha threw a mecha bomb into it.

Then a loud noise came from the communication channel.

These mercenaries watched the command car of the highway train swell up instantly.

It did not mark the location of the damage, and even sprayed out a lot of things.

"Boss!!!" The mecha divisions of the Puffer Mercenary Group shouted madly in the communication channel.

And Yang Bo is happy now!

Because Yang Bo knew it was not good when he saw one side of the highway train opened.

The entire mecha descended at a high speed and avoided the attack of the laser cannon in the weapon car of the highway train.

At the same time, Yang Bo took out the energy weapon of the mecha and aimed it at the radar transmitter of the laser cannon in the train weapon car.

This laser cannon is a large laser cannon, which is a fatal threat to mechas.

But this laser cannon also has a weakness, that is, if there is no radar system, he is a blind man.

Yang Bo's mecha did not fall to the ground, but turned on the rocket backpack to accelerate in an arc.

This action also allowed Yang Bo's mecha to avoid the attack of several air superiority mechas of the mercenary group.

Because the intelligent systems of these air superiority mechas judged that Yang Bo's mecha would fall directly.

Because Yang Bo's attack did not fall to the ground at all, but dived down from the air, the mecha flew directly to the road train close to the ground.

Forging +32!

Mecha driving +32!

Hacker +16!

Mecha repair +16!

Fighting +8!

Fighting +8!

Yang Bo threw the mecha bomb into the suspicious carriage, and then controlled the mecha to flip over the stopped road train.

Now the road train is stopped, Yang Bo's mecha came to the other side of the road train, using the road train as a cover, because the opponent still has four air superiority mechas in the air.

Yang Bo's mecha had already sent a distress signal to the company.

It's not that Yang Bo wants to count on the company to save him, but that this is the process to go through.

"It seems that the intelligence collected by Xu Shun was given to certain people!"

"Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise I would have been succeeded by others." The mecha controlled by Yang Bo went to the back of the road train, because there were many people wearing armor and holding weapons on the road train.

Yang Bo controlled the mecha to crouch down, with one hand holding an energy shield and the other hand holding an energy weapon for the mecha.

The command car of the road train has a higher defense, and the other cars are all civilian standards!

Because raising the defense of the entire car will arouse suspicion from others.

And the cost is too high.

The mercenaries wearing armor of the Puffer Mercenary Group did not expect such a big change to happen.

These mercenaries wearing armor were ready to watch the fun and then make money from this mission, but they didn't expect that the command car would be attacked the next second.

These mercenaries in armor were like a group of flies that were startled and scattered. Most of them ran in the direction of several mechas in the mercenary group, while others were in a panic.

The energy weapons in the hands of Yang Bo's mechas named them one by one.

The energy weapons in the hands of these mercenaries had no effect on Yang Bo's mechas at all, because Yang Bo's mechas were holding energy shields.

Even if the power of the energy weapons used by mechas is small, it is still a fatal blow to a single superpower wearing armor.

Boom! !

Boom! !

Boom! !

Just seeing these mercenaries wearing armor, the whole person exploded into a group of gorgeous fireworks.

This is because the energy of the energy weapons reacts with the energy of the superpowers.

Gun Mastery +8!

Mecha Repair +8!

Combat +8!

Yang Bo's mind was filled with information.
