Byron's Blade

Chapter 142

At 150:1 in the morning on January 5, 7, the team set off on time and continued westward, heading towards Geneva according to the planned route.Traveling across the territory of Hungary, what you see is a scenery that is not consistent with the Eastern world.The alluvial plain of the Danube stretches as far as the eye can see, and the distant Alps snow-capped mountains are like a fairyland, which can be described as magnificent mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery.

Leaving the heroic ancient city of Eger, proceed along the railway leading to Budapest. Halfway through the journey, you can see a majestic mountain in the northeast of the front of the car - Mount Matrau.The highest peak, Kekes Peak, is 1015 meters above sea level and is the highest peak in Hungary.The mountain is covered with snow all the year round, beautiful and upright.

Mu Li sat on the front of the car, with the cold wind whistling in his ears, and when he turned around, he could still see the towering Eger Castle covered with vines.The pre-Baroque architecture has its own vicissitudes and quiet ancient charm.There is actually more than one such castle in Eger. Medieval fortresses, [-]th-century minarets and [-]th-century palaces are scattered all over the place. Unfortunately, there are now fewer people who appreciate and protect them. The visitors, also because of heavy responsibilities and time constraints, could only take a quick glance and leave quickly.

Today's weather is fine, the dense dark clouds in the sky have thinned a bit, and the sun shines down, illuminating the whole world.The sulphide haze permeating the air has also faded a lot, and visibility has greatly increased.When the convoy had just passed the Kekesh Peak, a large grape field appeared nearby, and a dilapidated signboard hung on the side of the road, which was written in Hungarian that no one could understand.But everyone knows that this is actually a dilapidated winery.

Hungarian specialty - blood red wine, also known as ox blood wine, was well-known at home and abroad in the old days.At that time, high-end wine was already a luxury.In today's era, wine is a luxury among luxury goods. Although the price is jaw-droppingly expensive, if you drink the good wine of the old era and buy the wine of today, you will find that you are really spending money to buy horse urine. And only a little bit.

Sitting with Mu Li on a military jeep at the moment is the people in her team, besides her, there are Lin Zhao and Xia Jie.The establishment of the "Scout Squad" was announced last night, and today the new squad will immediately start performing tasks.The three scout teams were all assigned a highly mobile military mountain off-road vehicle, which was always alert to the enemy's situation and could roam freely in the team.

Xia Jie was in charge of driving, Mu Li and Lin Zhao took turns to stick out the roof of the car to be on duty, and now it happened to be Mu Li's turn.Marching is boring. If it is just a general march, group members are not prohibited from opening a group meeting channel to chat a few words.Mu Li was sitting on the roof watching the scenery, Xia Jie was talking while driving, and Lin Zhao was sitting on the back seat with his eyes closed to catch up on sleep.She actually wears a helmet, sleeps or not, and no one knows.

Lin Zhao is a boring gourd, basically can't speak, even if he speaks, he tries to be brief.Xia Jie is a chatterbox, and he feels uncomfortable all over if he doesn't speak for a moment.His job is a sniper, because his skills are not as good as Robin Quinn's, so he has been Robin's observer, and there are very few opportunities to shoot himself.This time, acting separately from Robin seems to be a very exciting thing for him.

The stereotype of a sniper is that he is taciturn, forbearing and dormant, extremely patient, and hits the ground with one hit.However, this guy is a different kind. When he was partnered with Robin in the past, this guy whispered in Robin's ear all day long, so that Robin was not originally a taciturn character, but suddenly became the state where he doesn't like to talk now.However, this guy's dual-purpose ability has reached the extreme, and he can be regarded as a talent if he can balance chatter and tasks.Now that he has teamed up with Mu Li Linzhao, he began to harass the two of them non-stop.Lin Zhao simply waited in silence, and Xia Jie was also afraid of her after coming and going, and dared not mess with her again.So Mu Li became the main target of the bombing, because Mu Li is the leader of the group, it is not a problem to ignore his subordinates all the time, the relationship between the three depends entirely on her to maintain, and it will not be good for future missions if it gets stagnant. So Xia Jie nagged, and she just listened, and occasionally added a few words, which can be regarded as "a very happy conversation".

At this moment, because Xia Jie saw the grape field, he started talking.This guy is a history buff. He knows a lot about the various civilizations, races, and religions that exist in the world. The history and military affairs of various countries and nations are very extensive, and he knows everything. He is a person who knows everything. .And he is very good at being a teacher. When he meets someone who can talk to him, he keeps holding him, dropping his bookbags and shaking his baggage.

"...In the middle of the sixteenth century, Ottoman Turkey invaded Hungary. At that time, the important town in northern Hungary, Eger, where we lived temporarily yesterday, had not yet fallen. Because this is a fortress area, it will directly threaten the capital Budapest if it falls, so the city The soldiers and civilians rose up to resist. They fought bloody battles with the invaders. In order to strengthen their morale and courage, the soldiers drank wine so much that their armor and beards were stained red. When the enemy saw these soldiers with red beards and armor, they were terrified. I thought that these people would be trampled to death like mad cows after drinking the blood of the cow. They threw down their armor and fled in embarrassment. Therefore, this Eger specialty wine has the title of cow blood wine, and it is very popular All of Hungary..."

He was talking endlessly there, but Mu Li had long since lost the patience to listen to him.In fact, Mu Li knew what he said.It's not that Mu Li is erudite, but that she has a search engine and a huge knowledge base stuffed in her mind, and a lot of relevant information can be pulled out with almost one thought.If she didn't forcefully control it, she would probably go insane.

While enjoying the wind in his ears, Mu Li concentrated on observing his surroundings.Their car was driving on the outermost right hand side of the convoy, sitting on the roof, surrounded by vast and low grape fields, and the view was still very good.It wasn't long before she discovered something unusual.So she forcibly interrupted Xia Jie's chatter, and ordered:

"Old Xia, speed up immediately and go to the front of the convoy. There is a situation."

Xia Jie immediately shut up and acted according to the order.That's the only good thing about him, he never delays his work, he is very reliable, so everyone put up with his usual shortcomings.

At this moment, Mu Li has already sent a call request to Mu Xin to report what he found in time:

"Commander, please speak." Mu Xin quickly answered Mu Li's call request.

Hearing her voice, Mu Li was taken aback, and a strange feeling arose.She hadn't communicated with Mu Xin alone for a long time, not on the phone, let alone sitting down and talking face to face.When the two of them met, someone else was always present.Now that I suddenly communicated with her alone, there was an inexplicable embarrassment hidden.

Shaking his head and throwing away these redundant thoughts, Mu Li went straight to report:

"I observed a large area of ​​thorny plants blocking the way ahead, and asked the team to suspend, and the scout team will explore the way first."

"Approved, Group A goes first, find out the situation and report in time, waiting for instructions."

"Yes!"

The team stopped slowly, but the car of Mu Li's team got out of the team and headed forward.Although Mu Li's eyesight is excellent and his field of vision is far away, it only takes a while for the car to drive there.Not long after, Xia Jie had to step on the brakes, because the front was completely impassable.

"What is this? Grape vines?"

Xia Jie looked at the scene in front of him with a constipated expression, and saw that the large area of ​​land in front of him was covered by many vines. These vines grew intertwined with each other and spread a thick layer on the ground. When Mu Li jumped out of the car and took a close look , and found that these plants were almost as tall as her height.Moreover, these thorny plants are full of sharp thorns, and it hurts just to look at them. If you don't take a detour, it will take a lot of effort to pass.

The patrol car of Muli's team waited in place, and Muli reported the situation to Muxin by radio.Not long after, Mu Xin gave an order: the team will not make a detour, form a single file, let the mecha clear the way, and move on.

"Boss, this is not right. I don't know how far this large area of ​​mutated grape vines has spread. Seeing that it is getting late, I am afraid that I will spend the night surrounded by vines after walking this way. We don't know what's ambushing inside, it's a bit risky." Lanny objected.

Mu Xin said with a smile: "This is what I want. I want to see how powerful the rear tail is. Let's open a road, set up sensor trackers along the way, and leave a group of scouts in ambush. I want to see the movement of the tail behind me and make some analysis and judgment. Of course, it would be the best if the scout team can directly see what the tail looks like."

Lan Ni saw that Mu was confident, so she didn't say any more.It is not without reason that Mu Xin regards the tail behind as more important than the potential enemy in front.As long as there is no large-scale insect swarm or the appearance of primitive mother insects, groups of Zerg and predators generally pose no threat to their team.On the contrary, it is the tail at the back, whose identity is still unknown, hidden in the dark, and has a greater potential threat.

During this journey, they have not encountered Zerg and predators at all. Occasionally, two or three short-sighted ones will appear on the road, and they will be wiped out quickly, which is not worth mentioning.Most Zergs and predators have an innate instinct to avoid danger, not to say that when they see humans, they rush towards them like crazy.They also have the ability to hunt and kill, and can judge the strength level of their prey and themselves.When there is obviously a gap, these ugly big guys will not foolishly send their lives up there.

Therefore, in fact, the possibility of being attacked by the Zerg is not particularly high when a large army is marching on the road. It is very rare for Mu Li to encounter so many times when his troops are attacked by the Zerg, and of course it is all caused by human factors.

The mechas of the Fifth Squadron finally came in handy. The two mecha captains, Lilian and Doug, drove the Ares II and entered the combat mode from the driving model world.The kneeling legs of the mecha stood upright, and the four-meter-tall guy finally showed his true colors.I saw the two mecha captains pull out the electromagnetic mecha knives hidden in their legs at the same time with a tacit understanding.

The next scene seemed a bit comical. The two majestic mechas should have swung electromagnetic knives to slash at the enemy, but they started to clean up the thorns on the ground a little clumsily.That movement was like an old man bowing his waist and sweeping the street. It seemed absurd that he would kill a chicken with a butcher's knife.

"Scout group A, stay in ambush and observe, and keep in touch at any time." The team slowly followed the two mechas that cleared the way and drove into the thorny jungle.Mu Xin gave new orders to Mu Li's team.

"Yes." Mu Li accepted the order straightforwardly, roughly understanding what Mu Xin wanted to do.

The author has something to say: This chapter begins to return to the "Long March Large Copy".

It is unscientific to see some children's shoes pointing out that before Muli received genetic modification, he could kill three first-level spider predators alone.Let me explain that when Mu Li killed three spider-like predators in the cave, she did not undergo genetic modification, simply because her fighting skills were too high.She didn't fight head-on, the way she used was assassination. The title of "Assassin in the Army" came from that time.

I wrote earlier that Mu Li has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and later received professional military training, so in terms of combat skills, she is everyone.With the assistance of a powered exoskeleton, there will also be a great bonus in terms of strength. It is actually not a big problem to assassinate three spider-like predators.

And after she underwent genetic modification, her fighting style changed directly from an assassin to a berserker, and her title also changed from "Assassin in the Army" to "God of War". Compared with her previous physical ability, she has risen by an unknown number of steps.
