At midnight, the rising wind and dull thunder and lightning had been brewing in the sky for a long time, and the heavy thunderstorm finally fell.
Pitter-patter raindrops began to fall from the sky, and then the rain quickly became heavier. Soon the entire Mechanical City was enveloped in a torrential downpour.
Lightning flashed, and lightning lit up over the mechanical city amid the dull thunder. Heavy rain poured down, and strong winds roared through the mechanical city.
An inexplicable cold air spread along with the wind and rain, and the cold city was shrouded in thick dark clouds.
The higher-intensity street fighting than expected has further increased power consumption, and the city's power reserve has almost dropped to the predetermined danger level. In order to survive until dawn, this cold, mechanical city further reduced its power supply. The weak lights went out in the cold night, and three-quarters of the city was already plunged into darkness.
The battlefield where the rebels fought against the automatic turrets formed a winding, entangled and twisted front, dividing the Mechanical City into northern and southern halves on the map. On the front line where bullets rained, tanks and mechanized soldiers bravely launched attacks on the automatic turret positions again and again. Anti-armor weapons exploded a ball of fire on the tank, and the machine gun turret was blown to pieces by large-caliber artillery. They rushed to the battlefield to pack their bags. The trapped soldiers were beaten into pieces by shrapnel from machine guns and attack grenades, and intensive bombing from distant artillery positions burned the designated location into a white field.
Human life has lost value here. Countless lives are dying on the battlefield every moment. This city seems to have turned into a monster that chooses and devours people. Even if thousands of lives have been buried here, they are still there. Unsatisfied, it opened its gluttonous mouth wide, waiting for more fresh life to fill its belly.
Only under the non-stop lightning and thunder and the torrential rain, the fierce fighting between the two sides eased.
Obviously, the environmental impact of this sudden thunderstorm and heavy rain disaster has caused considerable obstacles to both parties.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The one-eyed man threw away the cigarette butt that had been burned to the filter. He looked out the window at the increasingly heavy rain and couldn't help but cursed: Damn it, if the heavy rain continues, we may not be able to complete the progress as planned. Task
The Tekkadan troops who were the first to respond and apply to join the battle, the One-Eyed Team, had always been concerned about the missing Captain Jekyll. As soon as they got the permission, they rushed into the Mechanical City, and after they solved the Two-Face Man Not long after the team suppressed the surrounding automatic turrets, they were very lucky to reunite with the follow-up reinforcements, and in accordance with the command's instructions, they pushed all the way towards the Tower of Babel where Jekyll most likely existed.
Ryder walked to the window and looked solemnly at the rain curtain. The position of the automatic turret was difficult to distinguish under the rain curtain. He frowned and asked impatiently: Isn't the impact of the heavy rain relative? While our field of vision and weapon calibration are affected, their combat effectiveness will also be suppressed. Can't they break through through this heavy rain?
Hearing his speech, which had no experience in fighting in the rain, the one-eyed man shook his head: This is not only a problem of vision and weapon calibration, severe thunderstorms will cause disturbances to the electromagnetic environment, which is essentially equivalent to a natural wide-area e Weapons, many people in the resistance have undergone mechanized transformation surgery. Although the electronic components buried in the body have received a certain degree of electromagnetic protection, no one knows how effective this protection will be in a strong thunderstorm environment. The most important thing is What's more, these people walking in a strong thunderstorm environment are equivalent to human-shaped lightning rods. If they enter the battlefield in such a dense thunderstorm environment, I am afraid that more people will be killed by lightning than by machine guns. many
As he said that, he looked back at the team members in the room who were taking time to rest, and then said: I am the commander of the team, and I need to be responsible for your lives.
But! Ryder raised his voice. He turned to look at the one-eyed man, as if he wanted to argue with him, but he was interrupted by the other party's wave before he could say anything.
There is no but. Another bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and a sudden burst of dazzling light illuminated the three-dimensional face of the one-eyed man. Do you know why I asked you to stop before?
He was referring to Ryder's previous outburst against Two-Face.
Ryder was stunned, as if he didn't expect that he would ask this question. Thinking of the previous
He lowered his head guiltily for his reckless move: Because my actions put the lives of other people in the team at risk, I'm sorry about this, I was too impulsive at the time.
Um. The one-eyed man nodded, because your actions at that time put the entire team in danger. In that state, many of our compatriots might be injured or killed in a fierce battle, so I forced you to stop. It is important to implement justice, but If enforcing justice will cost the lives of my subordinates, I will never do this kind of loss-making business. The same is true now. There are many people who are willing to sacrifice their lives to save the leader. After this battle is over, we may lose some brothers and sisters forever, but at least I will never allow you to die in vain.
Dying is the easiest thing in this world. Living often requires more than just courage. It also requires carrying the hopes of those who have passed away and taking everyone with them to live together.
Ryder was silent for a long time. The one-eyed man's words seemed to make him understand something, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that his mind was full of mush and he didn't understand anything. He looked at the other person for a long time, and after a long time he nodded: I Understood
What nonsense are you talking about? I was just talking nonsense. Do you understand? The one-eyed man smiled at him, regardless of the latter's shocked expression that turned to anger, and then turned to look out the window at the torrential rain. His thoughts gradually drifted away, and he couldn't help but recall what Jekyll once said. Yes, those words that have a profound impact on me.
I don't want to win this war by killing or sacrificing anyone, I want to save everyone
No matter how heinous a criminal is, we cannot deprive him of the opportunity to defend himself, let alone engage in private acts in the name of justice. Including the tyrant Hyde, no matter how unforgivable the crime he committed was, how deserving of being cut into pieces, and how much blood was stained on his hands, but even so, because of this, we cannot kill him just to vent our anger. he! We need to let the law give him a fair trial. Every law he violates and every crime he commits must be documented and verified. We need to make him convinced and plead guilty, and let him sincerely plead guilty. Those who died for their sins repented
The law should not protect people, but people should protect the law voluntarily. One day in the future, everyone will voluntarily protect the law, and a highly civilized society will definitely come.
We may not be able to help many people by ourselves, let alone protect many people by doing what we can, but the people we protect and help will protect more people and help more people like us, and those people will go Help as many people as I can. If the world forms a virtuous cycle like this, I firmly believe that the world will definitely be changed.
It was stormy and freezing outside, but inside the Tower of Babel it was warm as spring.
There are alloy gates placed on the stairwell that seems to extend upwards endlessly in the tower. This is a roadblock used by the control room to block intruders. However, judging from the holes in the alloy gates that appear to have been melted by some high temperature, These impediments do not appear to have had much effect.
A group of blurry and distorted transparent shadows were silently walking through the stairs. They were a small group. The invasion team of more than thirty people dispersed into six groups shortly after entering the building, each heading up from different routes. And they were the group that took the stairs most uprightly. .
Those who carried out the invasion mission this time were all the personal guards under San Ming. They received the secret order from the deputy commander, brought the best and most advanced weapons and equipment, and sneaked all the way to the Tower of Babel in order to do everything possible. It is possible that Tekkadan's frontal troops advanced to the Tower of Babel and abducted Jekyll.
The leader of the ghost team watched the door-breaking bomb blow a big hole in the alloy gate. He gestured for his team to follow. However, when passing through the landscape window in the corridor, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a thunderstorm with lightning and thunder outside the window.
Lightning continued to pierce the sky, and the downpour made the entire city appear blurry and distorted. Another thunder and lightning fell, and the entire sky seemed to be illuminated by this unusually dazzling lightning. In the vagueness, the ghost captain seemed to see the city. The lights are gradually dimming in the rain. The tall buildings in the distance are plunged into darkness. The lightning that lights up from time to time makes these buildings look like a cold, ferocious face. In the heavy rain, he seems to Saw a huge
The drone soared in the sky in the wind and rain, fighting and fighting the storm.
All this seems to be an illusion, and it seems to be more than just an illusion.
A vague uneasiness was spreading in Captain Ghost's heart. He always felt that something was wrong, as if danger was approaching, but he quickly suppressed this uneasiness.
Hopefully other teams will arrive faster than us.
I'm sorry. These things that happen are also the pain of the times. If this deformed world is not ended, the pain of such deformity will become more and more frequent. Jekyll stood up from his position. He no longer felt that there was any need to continue. Let's talk, Hyde, I will take you back. In order that such pain will never happen again, in order that no more people will die from it, I will end the empire you built, and I will create a highly civilized society. But Before that, you need to take responsibility for what you have done, and I will let you face a fair trial.
Are you still insisting on the concept of not killing anyone? This time, there was a hint of admiration in Hyde's eyes. He clapped his hands mockingly: OK, you are a saint, you are noble, you are right, the crimes committed by those people are of the times. You have lofty ideals and wishes, so it seems that the role of villain and despicable person can only be played by me.
Let's talk about it later, Hyde. Jekyll had made up his mind not to listen to the other party's words that seemed to be confusing. He stepped on the table and rushed to Hyde in the blink of an eye. Sorry, my next actions may be a little rough.
As he spoke, he kicked Hyde hard in the face with a whip!
