Deep Space Knight
Chapter 10 Rewritten ~
×!Want you to mind your own business? "
Sheng Rui looked calm: "This place is sealed, there is no electricity, the ventilation system is not working, and the oxygen is limited. If you waste oxygen like this, everyone will die faster."
"Oh?" The lighter came towards him, "Then how about you make a contribution to everyone, let me kill you, and waste less oxygen?"
"That's not a good idea." Sheng Rui wiped the sweat from his neck, "This place is hot and not ventilated. If I die, the body will be highly decomposed in a short time. Are you sure you Want to stay in that environment?"
"..."
"And under the current situation, everyone is very nervous. Once a riot breaks out, it will be difficult to calm down. There are so many people locked up here, and if the situation gets out of control, you can't get out of it. Maintaining emotional stability is the key right now. It's the best way for everyone.—Come on, man, calm down. Let's wait a little longer, and maybe we'll have a turnaround soon."
Sheng Rui's voice was very soft, but it had a subtle deterrent effect, which slightly dispelled the tense hostility in the space.The flame of the lighter hesitated for a moment, then went out with a snap.
The darkness shrouded again made the surroundings quiet for a moment.
Suddenly there was a crackling sound of electric sparks, and the light tube above the head suddenly lit up, and the snow-white light made people unable to open their eyes.At the same time, a slight rumbling sound also circulated in the alloy wall, and the ventilation holes around began to send out cool breeze.
Power is back!
A small door on the wall buzzed open, instantly attracting everyone's attention.When it was clear that it was an officer wearing the uniform of the Phoenix Fleet, many people couldn't help but let out a low cry of surprise.
Finally someone came over!
Did you come to inform them that they can evacuate and go home?
There was no joy on the officer's face, and he stepped in with heavy leather boots.Behind him was a small formation of soldiers, each dragging a large box.
The officer looked around and said slowly: "I declare: Phoenix [-] has entered a state of wartime emergency. All active officers, non-commissioned officers, alternate non-commissioned officers, and military service personnel are not allowed to resign immediately and wait for reorganization. Anyone without permission Those who leave the team will be sent to the court for trial!"
The majestic voice echoed between the metal walls.
A private put down the box, opened it, and took out a dark object from inside.
Someone gasped: That is a PP-19!
"Now, every alternate non-commissioned officer comes forward and receives a gun and a magazine." The officer stretched out his palms and ticked his body, "From now on, you are on standby. When the order arrives, you... have to fight too. Of course, you will be ordered to fight only in the worst case."
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
After a long time, someone suddenly cried out: "But we haven't received combat training at all! We can't go to the battlefield!"
"We are different from you professional soldiers, we are just ordinary people, ordinary people!!"
"Quiet!" The officer suddenly shouted.
The crowd fell silent.The officer didn't say anything, just bowed deeply.Then he turned around, faced the crowd on the other side, and bowed deeply again.
If so, he bowed four times to the crowd on all sides.In the direction he was facing, the crowd retreated silently.
He straightened up, looked around again, and sighed: "As I said just now, you will only be ordered to fight in the worst possible situation. Now that our defense forces have been dispatched, try to face the enemy on the ground." The armored infantry regiment is intercepting. Our destroyer fleet is coming at full speed, as long as you persist for 12 hours, I guarantee that you can all go home safely. So, this is the most difficult 12 hours, please everyone. "
After saying this, he pressed the instrument on his wrist.More than half had laser marks in the shape of twin swords lit up on their arms—the marks of active military service members, chipped into the skin.
The private squad walked up to everyone marked and handed out weapons.
Sheng Rui silently took over his own PP-19.His training time was short, and he never took a shooting course.But it's pointless to say that now.He could imagine how difficult the situation of the defensive troops on the ground must be at this moment—if it was not a last resort, they would not be allowed to temporarily join the battle as alternate non-commissioned officers who hadn't even put on their uniforms.
Qi Han... what happened to him?
Before the private soldier walked away, Sheng Rui quickly asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, do you know Qi Han's current situation?"
Asking questions, he didn't hold out hope that the other party really knew.The ground must have turned into a pot of boiling oil now, who cares about who to pay attention to.
Unexpectedly, the private soldier glanced at him and nodded his head: "Before I came down, their death squad had just started. ——Are you his friend?"
"Yes."
"Ah...ah." The private soldier, with regret on his face, hesitated to speak, patted him comfortingly, and walked away.
☆、Chapter 16
Phoenix [-]'s defense force is scattered in bunkers all over the city.
This is a battle of unequal power.
There is no sun in the sky, and there are no stars in sight.Only the huge interplanetary battleship hangs high above the top of everyone's field of vision, and the blazing light of the engine is hard to see directly with the naked eye.
At the bottom of the battleship, there are two giant dark purple birds flapping their wings ready to fly.That is the mythical 鸑鷟, a mythical beast that looks like a phoenix and has habits like a mandarin duck.Legend has it that they always come in pairs, and that if one loses its mate, the other dies of grief.
However, there was neither love nor compassion in the eyes of this pair of ravens.Countless shiny metal eggs came out from the gaps between them, and hit the ground like a meteorite rain.
Each egg is an airborne pod, which hides a cold-blooded soldier armed with all metal.
Phoenix IV does not have such armored infantry.There are only a few armor-piercing weapons that can be relied on, and a death squad composed of some combat elites.
Xue Yuan prostrated himself on the ground, licking his parched lips.
Sitting side by side with him, Qi Han was lying prone in the same posture.Behind the goggles, a pair of green pupils gleamed faintly, like a wolf watching its prey in the dark.
Lieutenant Moody, who led the team, pointed to the map and whispered his final reminder:
"I'll repeat it for the last time, remember everything: After rushing out of the bunker, follow their respective routes and rush to the backup control room in the center of the city at full speed. Remember, our task is to restart the city defense system, and It’s not about destroying the enemy. We must ensure that at least one person can break into the control room alive in the end, otherwise this operation will be meaningless.”
"So...do we have a tactic?" asked a young corporal.
"Responsiveness, protect yourself. Unless the situation is critical, don't fight those armored infantry, we can't afford to lose it." Lieutenant Moody's gaze slowly moved over every face, "Guys, I hope we can all arrive alive That side. Safe travels, see you later."
As soon as he jumped, he was the first to jump out of the bunker.
Immediately following behind him, Qi Han and Xue Yuan also flew out silently, like two black arrows.
The entire Death Squad rushed up the street in a V shape, and dispersed as quickly as possible according to the different routes assigned in advance.
Qi Han and Xue Yuan were still running side by side, keeping a distance of several steps between them.
It stands to reason that they should not act together.In the entire Death Squad, they are the two most skilled and skilled.If they were all dead, the probability of success of the operation would be reduced by at least half.
But Lieutenant Moody didn't stop them.Because everyone has known since the days of the military academy that the fighting power of these two people together is a hundred times that of acting alone.
Therefore, it is safer for the two of them to take care of each other and cover each other than to act independently.
After running a hundred meters, a line of scarlet "Warning" began to flash on the screen of Xue Yuan's infrared goggles.
Without its reminder, Xue Yuan could clearly see the alloy armor in front with his naked eyes—the two-meter-high body, which looked even more massive in the darkness.
The magnetic levitation device under their feet did not stop for a moment, and in an instant, this small death squad was swallowed by the torrent of steel.
It was as if he had crashed headlong into a treacherous jungle, and in the blink of an eye, the figures of his companions in front and behind were all gone.
The only thing that can be caught by sight is Qi Han who is a few steps away.
Xue Yuan's heart suddenly became very at ease.The last trace of fear disappeared quickly, but the wild factor in the blood began to stir.
For what seemed to be a long time—perhaps several seconds—the close armored infantry made no attack.
They must have been shocked—someone would try to challenge the steel and iron bones with flesh and blood!
Before they returned to their senses and raised their guns, Qi Han's hand was already on the side of the goggles.
Like his motorcycle helmet, there is a brain-computer interface switch in there, which can be used to control the program with thoughts.On the day when he drove a motorcycle to save Sheng Rui, he activated the city defense system in this way and forcibly braked the out-of-control maglev vehicle.
Facing the automatic rifle|gun of the armored soldier, Qi Han did not dodge or dodge, and rushed in a straight line.The distance between the two sides is less than [-] meters, which is almost like suicide.
However, the bullets fired by the other party went wrong.
Taking advantage of this gap, Qi Han and Xue Yuan both swept past the armored infantryman, and with a few vertical leaps, they left him far behind.
Xue Yuan sneaked a glance at Qi Han, this guy was still expressionless.
——It actually made him succeed.This bastard's technical level is indeed above mine.
Xue Yuan thought unwillingly.
This battle plan was proposed by Qi Han, but because it was too difficult, he alone could realize it, so it was not promoted.
The core of this plan is to use the "Coriolis force" and a little technical means.
In order to maintain the centrifugal force, the space city has been constantly rotating.Objects moving in a straight line will be deflected by this, which is the so-called "Coriolis force".
After staying in the space city for a long time, you will get used to the Coriolis force.But those who have just arrived here will be affected by it, and it will be difficult to shoot accurately.
In order to reduce the error, the automatic calibrator of the alloy armor is connected to the satellite to calculate the local angular velocity in real time to offset the ballistic offset.
This is the only part of Alloy Armor that is connected to the Internet, and it is also the only part that can be used by Qi Han.
Within a few seconds, while maintaining high-speed movement, Qi Han has bypassed the inspection mechanism and hacked into the satellite calibration system.
As Qi Han advanced, the surrounding armored infantry found that their automatic calibrator had failed - the trajectory offset calculated by it was far from the actual situation, and the bullets always flew to strange places. Can't even touch the edge of the target.
Many soldiers simply turned off the calibrator and switched to aiming with the naked eye.But because it has not yet adapted to the local Coriolis force, the error of the point shot is extremely large.
Losing the long-range strike capability, the clumsiness of armored infantry is fully revealed.
For a moment, Xue Yuan and Qi Han seemed to be in the land of no one, like a pair of agile swallows, flying obliquely between the trees, and drove straight in.
On the map, the mark of the destination is getting closer and closer, and the string of numbers representing the distance is rapidly fading away.
Only 5000 meters left.
If you can keep going at this speed...
The sudden appearance of the black shadow made Xue Yuan suddenly alert, and he quickly raised his height, curled up and rolled back in the air, and landed on the ground with a low center of gravity.
In front of him, an alloy armor was blocking the only way to enter the city center.
Xue Yuan looked behind it, his eyes couldn't help but froze.
Not just one.
It seems that the city center is already on the verge of falling.As far as the eye can see, every important entrance and exit is guarded by a squad of armored infantry.
Now that things are up to now, it’s not enough if you don’t force yourself.
Xue Yuan took off the light rocket launcher on his back with his backhand, and exchanged glances with Qi Han not far away.
Two figures flew up at the same instant, one to the left and the other to the right, attacking the armor flank at the same time at a speed that was too fast to see clearly.
The radiator on the flank is the weakest part of the alloy armor.
Although it is weak, it must be penetrated at a close distance, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach an armored infantry within a radius of 50 meters.
However, there are always some extraordinary people in this world.
Before the soldiers inside the armor caught the movements of the two men, the detonation|flammation| warhead had already penetrated the thin steel plate.
Xue Yuan flew away before the detonation, rolled over several times in a row, and quickly hid in the bunker.
On the other side, Qi Han made the exact same movements as him, synchronized like a mirror image.
From the time of the military academy training camp, Xue Yuan and Qi Han have been such a golden pair.No matter how complicated the cooperation is, there is almost never any need for verbal communication, just exchange a look, and you will understand each other.
Detonation|flame|bomb detonates and burns inside the armor.
There was a short and miserable howl from inside the armor, and the smell of carbonized protein rushed out.
Witnessing this battle from a distance, Lieutenant Moody was stunned for a moment.
--Too strong.
Those two people... were unbelievably powerful!
When he saw the situation in the center of the city, he fell into despair for a while, but now he suddenly had the urge to cry with joy.
Yes, with those two people around, this crazy act of daring to die may really be successful!
"All the bastards who are still alive! Give it to me!" He turned his head and shouted hoarsely, "At all costs, cover those two people!!"
☆、Chapter 17
In the underground shelter, a plume of smoke rose towards the ceiling.
In a crowded space, the smell is particularly pungent, not to mention that there are a lot of ammunition stored here.
Immediately someone turned their head, looking in disgust for the source of the smoke.
"Fuck, look at you!" The strong man who smoked spat hard, and the lid of the lighter in his hand closed vigorously, and then snapped open, making a sound like pulling a gun|bolt.
The scolded person shrank his neck and fell silent.
The flesh on the strong man's face twitched, and he let out a sneer of contempt.The lid of the lighter opened and closed, making annoying noises.Not long ago, he also burned Xue Yu's face with this Zippo lighter.
But his hand holding the cigarette was trembling slightly, and he couldn't even poke the cigarette into his mouth accurately several times.
Suddenly there was a commotion in a certain corner, and the crowd screamed and fled in all directions, as if to avoid a gas tank that was about to go out of control.
On the ground that they automatically vacated, two people wrestled together, one holding the other tightly.
The person held down was David, with the barrel of the PP-19 still in his mouth.
The person holding him down is Xue Yu.He and David have a very good relationship, because they are both weak and often bullied together, and gradually forged a friendship that is connected by fate.
"Help me!" Xue Yu shook David's hand and asked for help.
"Take his gun away! Take it away! Hurry up!" There were shouts all around, but no one dared to take a step closer.
"Bastard!" Xue Yu suddenly became furious, and Zi's face turned pale: "Aren't you usually all yo? Why are you so cowardly now? You guys are real trash! Idiots! Why don't you all die?"
More unsavory words, like lasing bullets, swept towards everyone furiously.How long does it take for a person to suppress their grievances before they are so crazy when they vent?
David on the ground stopped struggling, his eyes were wide open, and his pale face was numbly calm.But he still held the barrel of the gun tightly, as if waiting for the power to restrain him to disappear, so that he could pull the trigger calmly and end everything for himself.
Sheng Rui separated from the crowd and walked over, leaned over to David's ear, and whispered a few words.
No one heard what he said, but suddenly there was a light in David's eyes, which was as hot as a ghost for a moment, and then disappeared quickly.
Sheng Rui gently held the PP-19, slowly pulled it away, stepped back a few steps, and stood with the gun facing the sky in the corner.
The crowd just breathed a sigh of relief.But suddenly there was a yin and yang voice from a distance: "Damn, it's better to die."
Standing behind the crowd was a strong man with a cigarette in his hand, playing with a lighter in one hand, his face full of sarcasm.
Sheng Rui glanced at him and said coldly, "Do you want to die that much?"
"What the fuck did you say?!" The lighter's eyes flashed fiercely, and his thick hands grabbed Sheng Rui's front.
"What are you doing!" Rhode stood up to stop him, "Don't mess around!"
"Get out!" The lighter yelled at Rhodes with his eyes wide open, and pressed the muzzle of his gun against Sheng Rui's temple, "Believe it or not, I'll blow your head off so that you can't even cry?"
"I believe." Sheng Rui looked at the other party calmly, as if he was exploring something, "You did do such a thing because you were very scared."
"What the hell are you talking about? I'm afraid? I'm afraid?" The lighter raised its tone, but it also made an uncontrollable trill.
"You are very scared, so you want to do this to me." Sheng Rui glanced around, "What would such a group of scared people do to you? If I were you, I would never At times like this, people will be outraged."
The lighter was taken aback for a moment, and then he noticed the strange eyes of the people around him.
When those eyes were projected on him alone, they never made him have the slightest scruples.However, at this moment when they were gathered together, it suddenly made him feel like a light on his back, as if there was a hot spot on his body that focused the light.
He twisted Sheng Rui's hand and couldn't help but soften.
Sheng Rui swept away silently like a cat, and slowly straightened the front of his clothes:
"Maybe you are used to being domineering, and few people resist you. But you don't forget, these are not 'normal'. Everyone is in danger, emotions are like gun|powder, and they have guns. If you insist To bring insecurity to everyone..." He smiled faintly, his eyes were sharp, "I assure you, you will be miserable."
"..." The lighter's lips moved, feeling a little timid for a moment, not knowing how to end it.
Sheng Rui's tone suddenly softened: "I think you are a smart person who knows when and how to choose. Now, whether you can save your life is the most important thing, and you can let go of everything else temporarily. You want to fix me, wait It's not too late to leave here, right?"
"Bah! Remember me you b***, I will kill you sooner or later!" The lighter spat again, cursed and walked towards the back of the crowd.
"Wait a minute." Sheng Rui stopped coldly, "Hand over your magazine."
"What?" The lighter turned back in disbelief, "Don't go too far!"
Sheng Rui stopped looking at him, and turned to the surrounding crowd and said, "Everyone, since I have stood up now, I might as well say a few more words."
"Everyone must remember that the officer who came before said that if we survived 12 hours, we would all go home safely. But I know that you have the same worries in your hearts as I do-if 12 hours Hours, the situation is still the same now, what should we do at that time?"
His words hit the most uneasy part of everyone's heart.Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, and there began to be buzzing discussions.
"What are you trying to do by saying this?" Someone protested loudly, "Don't you think we are not nervous enough?"
"No." Sheng Rui looked in that direction, "I'm also nervous, so I hope to do something we can do."
"Damn, it sounds good, who do you think you are." Another voice came from the corner, "Then you go up to fight, hero! We will be safe if we beat back those armored soldiers."
Sheng Rui said with a pleasant face: "You and I are very clear that it is impossible for us to do it. But what I want to say now is that we can do it."
Every time the word "we" is said, Sheng Rui's gaze will stay on every face for a while, making everyone feel that they are being watched, and subconsciously put himself into what he said "we" "Among them.
"There are three situations that we may face. The worst is that the city falls, and we are helpless, so we have to count on ourselves. The best is that the fleet arrives, then we can all be saved, and nothing needs to be done. However, if The future is somewhere in between - we won't die for a while, but we won't be saved for a while, stuck here indefinitely. If that's the case, then we need to plan ahead."
"...Crow's Mouth." This time it was a girl's voice, not very confident.
"It's not that I don't want to say auspicious words, but we should consider this possibility and ensure our future safety to the greatest extent. Compared with verbal comfort, I think actual protection can make us feel more secure. At least it can make us The waiting time to be rescued was not that difficult."
In fact, Sheng Rui's inner estimation was much worse.If this kind of long-distance surprise attack launched by the scorpion fails to be resolved in one battle, it is likely to turn into a stalemate war of attrition.
He still doesn't know how big a space war can be.Maybe for a few days, maybe longer.
There hasn't been a big commotion here yet, because people still have expectations in their hearts, and let themselves believe that everything will end soon.
If the psychologically expected time is exceeded and the situation has not improved, despair and panic will spread among the crowd like a plague.At that time, the situation will no longer be so easy to control.
So, these 12 hours are very important.
Whether they, a group of strangers who were gathered together by chance, could rely on each other's support to survive the crisis that might arise later depended on the tacit understanding formed during this period of time.
The author has something to say: Make up for yesterday's~

☆、Chapter 18
The wind that rolled Mars became more violent.
In the blink of an eye, three damaged armors were lying on the ground.One of the fuel tanks was detonated, and it was blasted into a pile of iron from the inside.
An armored squad was vulnerable to two individual assaulters.
Xue Yuan and Qi Han always go out together and attack at the same time, like two sharp swords combined into one.
Doing so guaranteed the success rate of the assault: even if one of them missed, it would not give the enemy a chance.Otherwise, at such a close distance, a miss would mean death.
But the disadvantages are also obvious: the ammunition consumed every time is doubled.
The Death Squad was originally light-packed, with limited ammunition.After a few quick attacks, Xue Yuan's ammunition box was almost empty, but there were still two armored soldiers left.
The last enemy is always the trickiest.
The two armored soldiers have had enough time to understand each other's tactics, knowing that as long as they don't let the opponent get close, they can maintain their strong advantage.
They put the heavy machine | guns to the bursting gear, and fired continuously with their backs against the wall, forming a cross-fire network, and at the same time called for support by radio.
Xue Yuan hid behind the bunker, hesitated for a moment, then gave Qi Han a wink at the side - continue on.
Although I don't want to take risks at this juncture, time is of the essence.Once the armored soldiers from other places rushed over, all previous efforts would be wasted.He and Qi Han's ammunition and physical strength are no longer enough to launch another assault.
"Don't move, let us come." Lieutenant Moody's voice suddenly came from the radio headset, "You two see the opportunity and find a way to rush over."
Xue Yuan stopped.
More than a dozen death squads lined up in an assault column and passed him one after another.Lieutenant Moody walked at the end and threw a few armor-piercing bullets from the air: "We don't have much left here, you take them all."
Xue Yuan bit his lip, and silently caught it.
Using ordinary machine guns to attack armor...Although it is possible to succeed, it is conceivable that the result will definitely be death.
These dozen or so companions will never be seen again from now on.
As soon as they passed Xue Yuan and Qi Han, the assault column spread out in a V shape, and rushed towards the two armored soldiers from the two wings.The fireman carrying the heavy machine | gun is at the apex of the V, providing cover for the companions in front.
The surrounding ground was full of potholes, which had been smashed by the drop pod of the "Mianqi" when it hit the ground, and they could be used as ready-made foxholes at this moment.
"go!"
Xue Yuan jumped out from behind the cover with his waist down.Using the shoulders as the point of strength, do a side roll and jump into one of the pits.
Qi Han then jumped in, and quickly got down to hide, and adjusted the eyepiece screen to opaque to observe the situation on the ground.When the two of them are together, Qi Han usually acts as a scout.
Xue Yuan took a short breath, touched his shoulder, and felt a sharp pain.
Although a light rocket launcher was used in the assault, the recoil is amazing.Under the continuous heavy blows, it was already difficult to lift one shoulder and arm.
But the physical pain was nothing.Although he lowered his head, his sense of hearing and smell replaced his eyes, telling him what was happening on the ground——the hot wind was tainted with fishy smell, and brought the sound of bones and flesh shattering.
The Fireman roared.The high-frequency bullets split the air, and the sharp whistling became a strange "hiss - hiss -" long sound.
Xue Yuan finally couldn't help raising his head, looking at Qi Han's face.At this moment, he suddenly wondered whether this person could still remain expressionless while witnessing the tragic deaths of his companions.
Most of Qi Han's face was covered by the eyepiece, but his lips were still the same as before, tightly pursed into a straight line, as straight as a dead man's electrocardiogram.
Xue Yuan's mind suddenly drifted away for a moment, and thought of an irrelevant sentence inappropriately - people who have no expression will gradually lose feeling in their hearts.
Qi Han probably didn't feel anything in his heart.
At this time, Qi Han bent his arms and clenched his fists.
Xue Yuan understood, and immediately adjusted his fighting posture.Qi Han's fist fell downward, and the two jumped out of the foxhole at the same time, and began to dash forward at full speed.
There was flying dust in front of my eyes, and the eyepiece automatically switched to infrared mode.
That's fine.This way he doesn't have to see the flesh and blood all over the ground. In the eyepiece, they are just obstacles.
The instructor who trained him in the military academy once said to him: You have to remember, whether it is a human or another animal, as long as it is dead, it is just an object.Living people do not need to develop affection for objects.
Xue Yuan didn't look back, and threw the bloody battlefield far into the darkness behind him.
——Breakthrough!
The steel front of the "Dianzhu" was unexpectedly broken through by an assault team in this way!
This is incredible.
What is even more incredible is that after crossing the front line, they were not blocked.
After moving on for a while, Xue Yuan felt uneasy.
Even though they have already entered the core area of the city, they can't see the shadow of the "Mianji" troops.It seems that the armored infantry only set up a defensive line around the periphery, but did not continue to advance towards the center of the city.
The buildings in the center of the city are intact, and even the plants and trees in the street gardens remain the same, but there are no people.
Xue Yuan knew where everyone had gone - they were all hiding in underground shelters.Except for the combat troops of both sides, the ground is almost an empty city.
——Could it be that the "Dragon" wants to protect the facilities of the space city and is unwilling to destroy them excessively?
As soon as this idea came out, Xue Yuan denied it.
Xia Changying is a lunatic.
What the lunatic meant was that he launched the war not simply for the purpose of possessing resources, but also to satisfy his almost perverted desire.To him, a ravaged|damaged flower is far more moving than its complete appearance.
The peaceful scene in front of me was even more treacherous than the dilapidated streets outside.Everything is in a panic, as if waiting for something unresolved.
Suddenly, there was a hoarse cry from the earphones that had been silent for a long time——
"Conceal! Conceal quickly!"
Lieutenant Moody, apparently on the verge of death, tried his best to give them a final warning: "You guys find a place to hide—"
The last word was swallowed by the explosion, and the radio became a cacophony.
The sound of engines pierced the air from far and near overhead, and a large ominous shadow was cast on the ground.
Xue Yuan raised his head, only to feel that the blood in his whole body was frozen in an instant.
— Bomber Echelon! !
No wonder the armored infantry didn't catch up, they must have received the order to "stand still and wait for the air raid to end"! !
At the same time, Xue Yuan and Qi Han turned around and rushed in two directions - it is absolutely unwise to stay together during intensive bombardment.
The two of them had to survive at least one of them, storm into that damn backup control room, and activate that damn system.
— not "should" or "may", but must.
There is only one chance, if you don't succeed, you will succeed.
The first round of bombing began, and the rain of bullets came all over the sky.
Xue Yuan jumped rapidly, zigzagging forward, like an arctic fox galloping across the vast snow field.
In just a few minutes, an area of over a thousand square meters in the center of the city had already been turned into a sea of flames.
As far as the eye could see, flames shot up everywhere.
Explosions, machine guns, houses collapsing.
All the tragic scenes in the world seem to be concentrated here at this moment, showing the myriad calamities of purgatory.
The church in the center of the city can be seen faintly in the red night illuminated by the flames.The pair of iconic Gothic steep spiers are like the solemn cross on the tombstone.
The damn backup control room is hidden in the fortifications 30 meters below the church.However, Xue Yuan really doubted whether he still had a chance to reach that place alive.
☆、Chapter 19
Sheng Rui's two proposals are simple.
One is to freely form small groups and take turns to rest and watch.
The second is to gather all existing resources in one place, guarded by everyone, distribute them according to the plan at regular intervals, and do not allow them to be used without authorization.
There is no problem with the implementation of the first thing, but the second thing has been firmly opposed by some people:
"I brought these foods with great difficulty, so why should I give them to you for nothing!"
"That's right! At this time, we have to take care of our own, who can control who!"
The speaker looked at Sheng Rui provocatively.
Sheng Rui looked at them, blinking his eyes, saying no.
"I think it's better for you to do the same as everyone else." After a while, the expected voice appeared in the crowd, "It is good for everyone to follow the order. If there is a looting, you may end up with nothing. You can't beat so many people, can you?"
"Yes. If everyone can be rescued soon, these things will not matter to you. If everyone is really trapped here, it will be difficult for you to survive alone."
As soon as someone took the lead in speaking, voices of echo gradually increased.
A girl hugged the bulging handbag in her arms, took half a step back hesitantly, walked forward silently, and turned the handbag over.
Bread, chocolate, potato chips, and snacks rolled all over the floor.She slowly gathered them together with her hands and swept them into the pile of food in the corner.
"Thank you." She heard the man with cat eyes say to her.
"You..." She stopped in front of that man, and met those shrewd cat eyes, "You have to promise to take us all back."
"I can't make that kind of promise." Sheng Rui said in a gentle voice, "but I will try my best to make sure that we can hold on until rescue arrives."
Soon, the corners were filled with bottled water and all kinds of food, which were placed in order of shelf life, and those with the short shelf life were placed on top.Plus some gear that might come in handy: knives, camping supplies, batteries, whatever.
In the corner on the other side, there are collected magazines.One after another, the long black cylinders were stacked in an irregular cone shape.The 64 rounds of bullets in each magazine are full, and no one hides them privately—"lighter" secretly hid two bullets, but they were discovered, so they had to hand them in under pressure, explaining guiltyly: "I am In order to prevent accidents, and..."
feel the unkindness of the people
Sheng Rui looked calm: "This place is sealed, there is no electricity, the ventilation system is not working, and the oxygen is limited. If you waste oxygen like this, everyone will die faster."
"Oh?" The lighter came towards him, "Then how about you make a contribution to everyone, let me kill you, and waste less oxygen?"
"That's not a good idea." Sheng Rui wiped the sweat from his neck, "This place is hot and not ventilated. If I die, the body will be highly decomposed in a short time. Are you sure you Want to stay in that environment?"
"..."
"And under the current situation, everyone is very nervous. Once a riot breaks out, it will be difficult to calm down. There are so many people locked up here, and if the situation gets out of control, you can't get out of it. Maintaining emotional stability is the key right now. It's the best way for everyone.—Come on, man, calm down. Let's wait a little longer, and maybe we'll have a turnaround soon."
Sheng Rui's voice was very soft, but it had a subtle deterrent effect, which slightly dispelled the tense hostility in the space.The flame of the lighter hesitated for a moment, then went out with a snap.
The darkness shrouded again made the surroundings quiet for a moment.
Suddenly there was a crackling sound of electric sparks, and the light tube above the head suddenly lit up, and the snow-white light made people unable to open their eyes.At the same time, a slight rumbling sound also circulated in the alloy wall, and the ventilation holes around began to send out cool breeze.
Power is back!
A small door on the wall buzzed open, instantly attracting everyone's attention.When it was clear that it was an officer wearing the uniform of the Phoenix Fleet, many people couldn't help but let out a low cry of surprise.
Finally someone came over!
Did you come to inform them that they can evacuate and go home?
There was no joy on the officer's face, and he stepped in with heavy leather boots.Behind him was a small formation of soldiers, each dragging a large box.
The officer looked around and said slowly: "I declare: Phoenix [-] has entered a state of wartime emergency. All active officers, non-commissioned officers, alternate non-commissioned officers, and military service personnel are not allowed to resign immediately and wait for reorganization. Anyone without permission Those who leave the team will be sent to the court for trial!"
The majestic voice echoed between the metal walls.
A private put down the box, opened it, and took out a dark object from inside.
Someone gasped: That is a PP-19!
"Now, every alternate non-commissioned officer comes forward and receives a gun and a magazine." The officer stretched out his palms and ticked his body, "From now on, you are on standby. When the order arrives, you... have to fight too. Of course, you will be ordered to fight only in the worst case."
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
After a long time, someone suddenly cried out: "But we haven't received combat training at all! We can't go to the battlefield!"
"We are different from you professional soldiers, we are just ordinary people, ordinary people!!"
"Quiet!" The officer suddenly shouted.
The crowd fell silent.The officer didn't say anything, just bowed deeply.Then he turned around, faced the crowd on the other side, and bowed deeply again.
If so, he bowed four times to the crowd on all sides.In the direction he was facing, the crowd retreated silently.
He straightened up, looked around again, and sighed: "As I said just now, you will only be ordered to fight in the worst possible situation. Now that our defense forces have been dispatched, try to face the enemy on the ground." The armored infantry regiment is intercepting. Our destroyer fleet is coming at full speed, as long as you persist for 12 hours, I guarantee that you can all go home safely. So, this is the most difficult 12 hours, please everyone. "
After saying this, he pressed the instrument on his wrist.More than half had laser marks in the shape of twin swords lit up on their arms—the marks of active military service members, chipped into the skin.
The private squad walked up to everyone marked and handed out weapons.
Sheng Rui silently took over his own PP-19.His training time was short, and he never took a shooting course.But it's pointless to say that now.He could imagine how difficult the situation of the defensive troops on the ground must be at this moment—if it was not a last resort, they would not be allowed to temporarily join the battle as alternate non-commissioned officers who hadn't even put on their uniforms.
Qi Han... what happened to him?
Before the private soldier walked away, Sheng Rui quickly asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, do you know Qi Han's current situation?"
Asking questions, he didn't hold out hope that the other party really knew.The ground must have turned into a pot of boiling oil now, who cares about who to pay attention to.
Unexpectedly, the private soldier glanced at him and nodded his head: "Before I came down, their death squad had just started. ——Are you his friend?"
"Yes."
"Ah...ah." The private soldier, with regret on his face, hesitated to speak, patted him comfortingly, and walked away.
☆、Chapter 16
Phoenix [-]'s defense force is scattered in bunkers all over the city.
This is a battle of unequal power.
There is no sun in the sky, and there are no stars in sight.Only the huge interplanetary battleship hangs high above the top of everyone's field of vision, and the blazing light of the engine is hard to see directly with the naked eye.
At the bottom of the battleship, there are two giant dark purple birds flapping their wings ready to fly.That is the mythical 鸑鷟, a mythical beast that looks like a phoenix and has habits like a mandarin duck.Legend has it that they always come in pairs, and that if one loses its mate, the other dies of grief.
However, there was neither love nor compassion in the eyes of this pair of ravens.Countless shiny metal eggs came out from the gaps between them, and hit the ground like a meteorite rain.
Each egg is an airborne pod, which hides a cold-blooded soldier armed with all metal.
Phoenix IV does not have such armored infantry.There are only a few armor-piercing weapons that can be relied on, and a death squad composed of some combat elites.
Xue Yuan prostrated himself on the ground, licking his parched lips.
Sitting side by side with him, Qi Han was lying prone in the same posture.Behind the goggles, a pair of green pupils gleamed faintly, like a wolf watching its prey in the dark.
Lieutenant Moody, who led the team, pointed to the map and whispered his final reminder:
"I'll repeat it for the last time, remember everything: After rushing out of the bunker, follow their respective routes and rush to the backup control room in the center of the city at full speed. Remember, our task is to restart the city defense system, and It’s not about destroying the enemy. We must ensure that at least one person can break into the control room alive in the end, otherwise this operation will be meaningless.”
"So...do we have a tactic?" asked a young corporal.
"Responsiveness, protect yourself. Unless the situation is critical, don't fight those armored infantry, we can't afford to lose it." Lieutenant Moody's gaze slowly moved over every face, "Guys, I hope we can all arrive alive That side. Safe travels, see you later."
As soon as he jumped, he was the first to jump out of the bunker.
Immediately following behind him, Qi Han and Xue Yuan also flew out silently, like two black arrows.
The entire Death Squad rushed up the street in a V shape, and dispersed as quickly as possible according to the different routes assigned in advance.
Qi Han and Xue Yuan were still running side by side, keeping a distance of several steps between them.
It stands to reason that they should not act together.In the entire Death Squad, they are the two most skilled and skilled.If they were all dead, the probability of success of the operation would be reduced by at least half.
But Lieutenant Moody didn't stop them.Because everyone has known since the days of the military academy that the fighting power of these two people together is a hundred times that of acting alone.
Therefore, it is safer for the two of them to take care of each other and cover each other than to act independently.
After running a hundred meters, a line of scarlet "Warning" began to flash on the screen of Xue Yuan's infrared goggles.
Without its reminder, Xue Yuan could clearly see the alloy armor in front with his naked eyes—the two-meter-high body, which looked even more massive in the darkness.
The magnetic levitation device under their feet did not stop for a moment, and in an instant, this small death squad was swallowed by the torrent of steel.
It was as if he had crashed headlong into a treacherous jungle, and in the blink of an eye, the figures of his companions in front and behind were all gone.
The only thing that can be caught by sight is Qi Han who is a few steps away.
Xue Yuan's heart suddenly became very at ease.The last trace of fear disappeared quickly, but the wild factor in the blood began to stir.
For what seemed to be a long time—perhaps several seconds—the close armored infantry made no attack.
They must have been shocked—someone would try to challenge the steel and iron bones with flesh and blood!
Before they returned to their senses and raised their guns, Qi Han's hand was already on the side of the goggles.
Like his motorcycle helmet, there is a brain-computer interface switch in there, which can be used to control the program with thoughts.On the day when he drove a motorcycle to save Sheng Rui, he activated the city defense system in this way and forcibly braked the out-of-control maglev vehicle.
Facing the automatic rifle|gun of the armored soldier, Qi Han did not dodge or dodge, and rushed in a straight line.The distance between the two sides is less than [-] meters, which is almost like suicide.
However, the bullets fired by the other party went wrong.
Taking advantage of this gap, Qi Han and Xue Yuan both swept past the armored infantryman, and with a few vertical leaps, they left him far behind.
Xue Yuan sneaked a glance at Qi Han, this guy was still expressionless.
——It actually made him succeed.This bastard's technical level is indeed above mine.
Xue Yuan thought unwillingly.
This battle plan was proposed by Qi Han, but because it was too difficult, he alone could realize it, so it was not promoted.
The core of this plan is to use the "Coriolis force" and a little technical means.
In order to maintain the centrifugal force, the space city has been constantly rotating.Objects moving in a straight line will be deflected by this, which is the so-called "Coriolis force".
After staying in the space city for a long time, you will get used to the Coriolis force.But those who have just arrived here will be affected by it, and it will be difficult to shoot accurately.
In order to reduce the error, the automatic calibrator of the alloy armor is connected to the satellite to calculate the local angular velocity in real time to offset the ballistic offset.
This is the only part of Alloy Armor that is connected to the Internet, and it is also the only part that can be used by Qi Han.
Within a few seconds, while maintaining high-speed movement, Qi Han has bypassed the inspection mechanism and hacked into the satellite calibration system.
As Qi Han advanced, the surrounding armored infantry found that their automatic calibrator had failed - the trajectory offset calculated by it was far from the actual situation, and the bullets always flew to strange places. Can't even touch the edge of the target.
Many soldiers simply turned off the calibrator and switched to aiming with the naked eye.But because it has not yet adapted to the local Coriolis force, the error of the point shot is extremely large.
Losing the long-range strike capability, the clumsiness of armored infantry is fully revealed.
For a moment, Xue Yuan and Qi Han seemed to be in the land of no one, like a pair of agile swallows, flying obliquely between the trees, and drove straight in.
On the map, the mark of the destination is getting closer and closer, and the string of numbers representing the distance is rapidly fading away.
Only 5000 meters left.
If you can keep going at this speed...
The sudden appearance of the black shadow made Xue Yuan suddenly alert, and he quickly raised his height, curled up and rolled back in the air, and landed on the ground with a low center of gravity.
In front of him, an alloy armor was blocking the only way to enter the city center.
Xue Yuan looked behind it, his eyes couldn't help but froze.
Not just one.
It seems that the city center is already on the verge of falling.As far as the eye can see, every important entrance and exit is guarded by a squad of armored infantry.
Now that things are up to now, it’s not enough if you don’t force yourself.
Xue Yuan took off the light rocket launcher on his back with his backhand, and exchanged glances with Qi Han not far away.
Two figures flew up at the same instant, one to the left and the other to the right, attacking the armor flank at the same time at a speed that was too fast to see clearly.
The radiator on the flank is the weakest part of the alloy armor.
Although it is weak, it must be penetrated at a close distance, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach an armored infantry within a radius of 50 meters.
However, there are always some extraordinary people in this world.
Before the soldiers inside the armor caught the movements of the two men, the detonation|flammation| warhead had already penetrated the thin steel plate.
Xue Yuan flew away before the detonation, rolled over several times in a row, and quickly hid in the bunker.
On the other side, Qi Han made the exact same movements as him, synchronized like a mirror image.
From the time of the military academy training camp, Xue Yuan and Qi Han have been such a golden pair.No matter how complicated the cooperation is, there is almost never any need for verbal communication, just exchange a look, and you will understand each other.
Detonation|flame|bomb detonates and burns inside the armor.
There was a short and miserable howl from inside the armor, and the smell of carbonized protein rushed out.
Witnessing this battle from a distance, Lieutenant Moody was stunned for a moment.
--Too strong.
Those two people... were unbelievably powerful!
When he saw the situation in the center of the city, he fell into despair for a while, but now he suddenly had the urge to cry with joy.
Yes, with those two people around, this crazy act of daring to die may really be successful!
"All the bastards who are still alive! Give it to me!" He turned his head and shouted hoarsely, "At all costs, cover those two people!!"
☆、Chapter 17
In the underground shelter, a plume of smoke rose towards the ceiling.
In a crowded space, the smell is particularly pungent, not to mention that there are a lot of ammunition stored here.
Immediately someone turned their head, looking in disgust for the source of the smoke.
"Fuck, look at you!" The strong man who smoked spat hard, and the lid of the lighter in his hand closed vigorously, and then snapped open, making a sound like pulling a gun|bolt.
The scolded person shrank his neck and fell silent.
The flesh on the strong man's face twitched, and he let out a sneer of contempt.The lid of the lighter opened and closed, making annoying noises.Not long ago, he also burned Xue Yu's face with this Zippo lighter.
But his hand holding the cigarette was trembling slightly, and he couldn't even poke the cigarette into his mouth accurately several times.
Suddenly there was a commotion in a certain corner, and the crowd screamed and fled in all directions, as if to avoid a gas tank that was about to go out of control.
On the ground that they automatically vacated, two people wrestled together, one holding the other tightly.
The person held down was David, with the barrel of the PP-19 still in his mouth.
The person holding him down is Xue Yu.He and David have a very good relationship, because they are both weak and often bullied together, and gradually forged a friendship that is connected by fate.
"Help me!" Xue Yu shook David's hand and asked for help.
"Take his gun away! Take it away! Hurry up!" There were shouts all around, but no one dared to take a step closer.
"Bastard!" Xue Yu suddenly became furious, and Zi's face turned pale: "Aren't you usually all yo? Why are you so cowardly now? You guys are real trash! Idiots! Why don't you all die?"
More unsavory words, like lasing bullets, swept towards everyone furiously.How long does it take for a person to suppress their grievances before they are so crazy when they vent?
David on the ground stopped struggling, his eyes were wide open, and his pale face was numbly calm.But he still held the barrel of the gun tightly, as if waiting for the power to restrain him to disappear, so that he could pull the trigger calmly and end everything for himself.
Sheng Rui separated from the crowd and walked over, leaned over to David's ear, and whispered a few words.
No one heard what he said, but suddenly there was a light in David's eyes, which was as hot as a ghost for a moment, and then disappeared quickly.
Sheng Rui gently held the PP-19, slowly pulled it away, stepped back a few steps, and stood with the gun facing the sky in the corner.
The crowd just breathed a sigh of relief.But suddenly there was a yin and yang voice from a distance: "Damn, it's better to die."
Standing behind the crowd was a strong man with a cigarette in his hand, playing with a lighter in one hand, his face full of sarcasm.
Sheng Rui glanced at him and said coldly, "Do you want to die that much?"
"What the fuck did you say?!" The lighter's eyes flashed fiercely, and his thick hands grabbed Sheng Rui's front.
"What are you doing!" Rhode stood up to stop him, "Don't mess around!"
"Get out!" The lighter yelled at Rhodes with his eyes wide open, and pressed the muzzle of his gun against Sheng Rui's temple, "Believe it or not, I'll blow your head off so that you can't even cry?"
"I believe." Sheng Rui looked at the other party calmly, as if he was exploring something, "You did do such a thing because you were very scared."
"What the hell are you talking about? I'm afraid? I'm afraid?" The lighter raised its tone, but it also made an uncontrollable trill.
"You are very scared, so you want to do this to me." Sheng Rui glanced around, "What would such a group of scared people do to you? If I were you, I would never At times like this, people will be outraged."
The lighter was taken aback for a moment, and then he noticed the strange eyes of the people around him.
When those eyes were projected on him alone, they never made him have the slightest scruples.However, at this moment when they were gathered together, it suddenly made him feel like a light on his back, as if there was a hot spot on his body that focused the light.
He twisted Sheng Rui's hand and couldn't help but soften.
Sheng Rui swept away silently like a cat, and slowly straightened the front of his clothes:
"Maybe you are used to being domineering, and few people resist you. But you don't forget, these are not 'normal'. Everyone is in danger, emotions are like gun|powder, and they have guns. If you insist To bring insecurity to everyone..." He smiled faintly, his eyes were sharp, "I assure you, you will be miserable."
"..." The lighter's lips moved, feeling a little timid for a moment, not knowing how to end it.
Sheng Rui's tone suddenly softened: "I think you are a smart person who knows when and how to choose. Now, whether you can save your life is the most important thing, and you can let go of everything else temporarily. You want to fix me, wait It's not too late to leave here, right?"
"Bah! Remember me you b***, I will kill you sooner or later!" The lighter spat again, cursed and walked towards the back of the crowd.
"Wait a minute." Sheng Rui stopped coldly, "Hand over your magazine."
"What?" The lighter turned back in disbelief, "Don't go too far!"
Sheng Rui stopped looking at him, and turned to the surrounding crowd and said, "Everyone, since I have stood up now, I might as well say a few more words."
"Everyone must remember that the officer who came before said that if we survived 12 hours, we would all go home safely. But I know that you have the same worries in your hearts as I do-if 12 hours Hours, the situation is still the same now, what should we do at that time?"
His words hit the most uneasy part of everyone's heart.Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, and there began to be buzzing discussions.
"What are you trying to do by saying this?" Someone protested loudly, "Don't you think we are not nervous enough?"
"No." Sheng Rui looked in that direction, "I'm also nervous, so I hope to do something we can do."
"Damn, it sounds good, who do you think you are." Another voice came from the corner, "Then you go up to fight, hero! We will be safe if we beat back those armored soldiers."
Sheng Rui said with a pleasant face: "You and I are very clear that it is impossible for us to do it. But what I want to say now is that we can do it."
Every time the word "we" is said, Sheng Rui's gaze will stay on every face for a while, making everyone feel that they are being watched, and subconsciously put himself into what he said "we" "Among them.
"There are three situations that we may face. The worst is that the city falls, and we are helpless, so we have to count on ourselves. The best is that the fleet arrives, then we can all be saved, and nothing needs to be done. However, if The future is somewhere in between - we won't die for a while, but we won't be saved for a while, stuck here indefinitely. If that's the case, then we need to plan ahead."
"...Crow's Mouth." This time it was a girl's voice, not very confident.
"It's not that I don't want to say auspicious words, but we should consider this possibility and ensure our future safety to the greatest extent. Compared with verbal comfort, I think actual protection can make us feel more secure. At least it can make us The waiting time to be rescued was not that difficult."
In fact, Sheng Rui's inner estimation was much worse.If this kind of long-distance surprise attack launched by the scorpion fails to be resolved in one battle, it is likely to turn into a stalemate war of attrition.
He still doesn't know how big a space war can be.Maybe for a few days, maybe longer.
There hasn't been a big commotion here yet, because people still have expectations in their hearts, and let themselves believe that everything will end soon.
If the psychologically expected time is exceeded and the situation has not improved, despair and panic will spread among the crowd like a plague.At that time, the situation will no longer be so easy to control.
So, these 12 hours are very important.
Whether they, a group of strangers who were gathered together by chance, could rely on each other's support to survive the crisis that might arise later depended on the tacit understanding formed during this period of time.
The author has something to say: Make up for yesterday's~

☆、Chapter 18
The wind that rolled Mars became more violent.
In the blink of an eye, three damaged armors were lying on the ground.One of the fuel tanks was detonated, and it was blasted into a pile of iron from the inside.
An armored squad was vulnerable to two individual assaulters.
Xue Yuan and Qi Han always go out together and attack at the same time, like two sharp swords combined into one.
Doing so guaranteed the success rate of the assault: even if one of them missed, it would not give the enemy a chance.Otherwise, at such a close distance, a miss would mean death.
But the disadvantages are also obvious: the ammunition consumed every time is doubled.
The Death Squad was originally light-packed, with limited ammunition.After a few quick attacks, Xue Yuan's ammunition box was almost empty, but there were still two armored soldiers left.
The last enemy is always the trickiest.
The two armored soldiers have had enough time to understand each other's tactics, knowing that as long as they don't let the opponent get close, they can maintain their strong advantage.
They put the heavy machine | guns to the bursting gear, and fired continuously with their backs against the wall, forming a cross-fire network, and at the same time called for support by radio.
Xue Yuan hid behind the bunker, hesitated for a moment, then gave Qi Han a wink at the side - continue on.
Although I don't want to take risks at this juncture, time is of the essence.Once the armored soldiers from other places rushed over, all previous efforts would be wasted.He and Qi Han's ammunition and physical strength are no longer enough to launch another assault.
"Don't move, let us come." Lieutenant Moody's voice suddenly came from the radio headset, "You two see the opportunity and find a way to rush over."
Xue Yuan stopped.
More than a dozen death squads lined up in an assault column and passed him one after another.Lieutenant Moody walked at the end and threw a few armor-piercing bullets from the air: "We don't have much left here, you take them all."
Xue Yuan bit his lip, and silently caught it.
Using ordinary machine guns to attack armor...Although it is possible to succeed, it is conceivable that the result will definitely be death.
These dozen or so companions will never be seen again from now on.
As soon as they passed Xue Yuan and Qi Han, the assault column spread out in a V shape, and rushed towards the two armored soldiers from the two wings.The fireman carrying the heavy machine | gun is at the apex of the V, providing cover for the companions in front.
The surrounding ground was full of potholes, which had been smashed by the drop pod of the "Mianqi" when it hit the ground, and they could be used as ready-made foxholes at this moment.
"go!"
Xue Yuan jumped out from behind the cover with his waist down.Using the shoulders as the point of strength, do a side roll and jump into one of the pits.
Qi Han then jumped in, and quickly got down to hide, and adjusted the eyepiece screen to opaque to observe the situation on the ground.When the two of them are together, Qi Han usually acts as a scout.
Xue Yuan took a short breath, touched his shoulder, and felt a sharp pain.
Although a light rocket launcher was used in the assault, the recoil is amazing.Under the continuous heavy blows, it was already difficult to lift one shoulder and arm.
But the physical pain was nothing.Although he lowered his head, his sense of hearing and smell replaced his eyes, telling him what was happening on the ground——the hot wind was tainted with fishy smell, and brought the sound of bones and flesh shattering.
The Fireman roared.The high-frequency bullets split the air, and the sharp whistling became a strange "hiss - hiss -" long sound.
Xue Yuan finally couldn't help raising his head, looking at Qi Han's face.At this moment, he suddenly wondered whether this person could still remain expressionless while witnessing the tragic deaths of his companions.
Most of Qi Han's face was covered by the eyepiece, but his lips were still the same as before, tightly pursed into a straight line, as straight as a dead man's electrocardiogram.
Xue Yuan's mind suddenly drifted away for a moment, and thought of an irrelevant sentence inappropriately - people who have no expression will gradually lose feeling in their hearts.
Qi Han probably didn't feel anything in his heart.
At this time, Qi Han bent his arms and clenched his fists.
Xue Yuan understood, and immediately adjusted his fighting posture.Qi Han's fist fell downward, and the two jumped out of the foxhole at the same time, and began to dash forward at full speed.
There was flying dust in front of my eyes, and the eyepiece automatically switched to infrared mode.
That's fine.This way he doesn't have to see the flesh and blood all over the ground. In the eyepiece, they are just obstacles.
The instructor who trained him in the military academy once said to him: You have to remember, whether it is a human or another animal, as long as it is dead, it is just an object.Living people do not need to develop affection for objects.
Xue Yuan didn't look back, and threw the bloody battlefield far into the darkness behind him.
——Breakthrough!
The steel front of the "Dianzhu" was unexpectedly broken through by an assault team in this way!
This is incredible.
What is even more incredible is that after crossing the front line, they were not blocked.
After moving on for a while, Xue Yuan felt uneasy.
Even though they have already entered the core area of the city, they can't see the shadow of the "Mianji" troops.It seems that the armored infantry only set up a defensive line around the periphery, but did not continue to advance towards the center of the city.
The buildings in the center of the city are intact, and even the plants and trees in the street gardens remain the same, but there are no people.
Xue Yuan knew where everyone had gone - they were all hiding in underground shelters.Except for the combat troops of both sides, the ground is almost an empty city.
——Could it be that the "Dragon" wants to protect the facilities of the space city and is unwilling to destroy them excessively?
As soon as this idea came out, Xue Yuan denied it.
Xia Changying is a lunatic.
What the lunatic meant was that he launched the war not simply for the purpose of possessing resources, but also to satisfy his almost perverted desire.To him, a ravaged|damaged flower is far more moving than its complete appearance.
The peaceful scene in front of me was even more treacherous than the dilapidated streets outside.Everything is in a panic, as if waiting for something unresolved.
Suddenly, there was a hoarse cry from the earphones that had been silent for a long time——
"Conceal! Conceal quickly!"
Lieutenant Moody, apparently on the verge of death, tried his best to give them a final warning: "You guys find a place to hide—"
The last word was swallowed by the explosion, and the radio became a cacophony.
The sound of engines pierced the air from far and near overhead, and a large ominous shadow was cast on the ground.
Xue Yuan raised his head, only to feel that the blood in his whole body was frozen in an instant.
— Bomber Echelon! !
No wonder the armored infantry didn't catch up, they must have received the order to "stand still and wait for the air raid to end"! !
At the same time, Xue Yuan and Qi Han turned around and rushed in two directions - it is absolutely unwise to stay together during intensive bombardment.
The two of them had to survive at least one of them, storm into that damn backup control room, and activate that damn system.
— not "should" or "may", but must.
There is only one chance, if you don't succeed, you will succeed.
The first round of bombing began, and the rain of bullets came all over the sky.
Xue Yuan jumped rapidly, zigzagging forward, like an arctic fox galloping across the vast snow field.
In just a few minutes, an area of over a thousand square meters in the center of the city had already been turned into a sea of flames.
As far as the eye could see, flames shot up everywhere.
Explosions, machine guns, houses collapsing.
All the tragic scenes in the world seem to be concentrated here at this moment, showing the myriad calamities of purgatory.
The church in the center of the city can be seen faintly in the red night illuminated by the flames.The pair of iconic Gothic steep spiers are like the solemn cross on the tombstone.
The damn backup control room is hidden in the fortifications 30 meters below the church.However, Xue Yuan really doubted whether he still had a chance to reach that place alive.
☆、Chapter 19
Sheng Rui's two proposals are simple.
One is to freely form small groups and take turns to rest and watch.
The second is to gather all existing resources in one place, guarded by everyone, distribute them according to the plan at regular intervals, and do not allow them to be used without authorization.
There is no problem with the implementation of the first thing, but the second thing has been firmly opposed by some people:
"I brought these foods with great difficulty, so why should I give them to you for nothing!"
"That's right! At this time, we have to take care of our own, who can control who!"
The speaker looked at Sheng Rui provocatively.
Sheng Rui looked at them, blinking his eyes, saying no.
"I think it's better for you to do the same as everyone else." After a while, the expected voice appeared in the crowd, "It is good for everyone to follow the order. If there is a looting, you may end up with nothing. You can't beat so many people, can you?"
"Yes. If everyone can be rescued soon, these things will not matter to you. If everyone is really trapped here, it will be difficult for you to survive alone."
As soon as someone took the lead in speaking, voices of echo gradually increased.
A girl hugged the bulging handbag in her arms, took half a step back hesitantly, walked forward silently, and turned the handbag over.
Bread, chocolate, potato chips, and snacks rolled all over the floor.She slowly gathered them together with her hands and swept them into the pile of food in the corner.
"Thank you." She heard the man with cat eyes say to her.
"You..." She stopped in front of that man, and met those shrewd cat eyes, "You have to promise to take us all back."
"I can't make that kind of promise." Sheng Rui said in a gentle voice, "but I will try my best to make sure that we can hold on until rescue arrives."
Soon, the corners were filled with bottled water and all kinds of food, which were placed in order of shelf life, and those with the short shelf life were placed on top.Plus some gear that might come in handy: knives, camping supplies, batteries, whatever.
