"Huh!" Lu Yuan let out a long breath and drew a small cross on the holographic map, and another strategic point returned to human hands. "Go to the next location..." He dropped the electronic pen and said tiredly.
Several tanks restarted and drove silently onto the road of the town. No one looked at the residents crowding the roadside with guns in hand. The scene of them cheering to the chariot and celebrating their victory turned into silent silhouettes inside the chariot. No one spoke, and the chariot swayed forward, finally leaving the town and the cheering crowd behind...
Lu Yuan leaned back heavily in his seat, and the entire carriage fell into silence again except for the "chacha" sound of Ziezi wiping his sword.
On the holographic map, the places marked with crosses by Lu Yuan's pen have formed a curved arc. It was like a strong alloy chain, binding the southwest of the colonial capital of Constante - so far, Team Lu had swept through most of the battlefield like a devastation! Changed a quarter of the battlefield situation around Constant!
At present, the geth have lost unified command. Although they still have an absolute advantage in numbers, the geth are fighting on their own. These advantages changed by the Lu team are likely to be maintained until the end of the battle. Moreover, after the Reaper warship left, the "New Aerona" took over what the Reaper had done and re-blocked communications in the nearby airspace! This means that the geth will not be able to upload and download their AI through the buoy network - so if the geth's carrying platform is destroyed, then the geth is really dead!
The convoy drove to the next destination in silence. in several carriages. Some people connected their "tactical" assault rifles and armor to the tank to charge, some used the mechanical spider in the vehicle to repair the wounds on the armor, and most people took advantage of this little time to sleep. Even the greenskins... lost their joking spirit at this moment. They had experienced this situation many times in one day.
The entire area around Constant has turned into a huge millstone of flesh and blood! Humans and geth, invest in it at all costs! Now it's like a game of perseverance, it's all about who can persevere to the end...
Fortunately, because of the presence of Team Lu, the entire southern state of Constante was in good shape. This allowed Colonel McHarovich to tilt the garrison's forces to the north. But the garrison strength in his hands may have been exhausted to the point where there is not much left.
What I saw along the way. There was devastation everywhere. In the town that had been ravaged by the war, a large number of buildings were destroyed, there were traces of bullet holes on the walls, and vehicles were burning helplessly on the streets... The only thing that made Lu Yuan feel relieved. Those civilians who took up guns and fought! They are now the most important weight in defending Constante. Millions of residents have joined the battlefield. Their fighting quality is no worse than that of the militia, and they have become the main force dominating the battlefield.
Judging from Colonel Mike Harovich's troop movements, he obviously understood this... This is also the result accumulated by Lu Yuan in the past six years. Now when he saw the resolute faces fighting the invaders when they picked up the gun, they were fathers, sons, brothers and sisters... Lu Yuan always felt moved. at this moment. They are as great as the Dawn immigrants who fought against the Mona people to the end.
"Hey guys! Say something... We're doing pretty well, right?" Tully suddenly said to the car channel. The increasingly silent atmosphere was something she couldn't accept. She wanted to try to boost everyone's morale, but unfortunately she received a simple and rude answer from the green skin. "Shut up! Rookie."
"But..." When Tully was about to say something else, her helmet was knocked from behind. Lu Yuan scolded her from behind, "Don't disturb others' rest!" Tully could only pouted quietly. Stop talking and keep driving. Silence returned to the carriage, except for Busujima Saeko's regular "cha-cha" sound...
Yes. Although Team Lu did a good job, the price paid for sweeping half of the front was not small! Even with the support of weapons and equipment that far surpassed the geth in terms of technological level, Team Lu still paid a heavy price in the form of 14 greenskin casualties and 3 casualties, and two tanks were destroyed after being set on fire by geth rockets! The bruises on Busujima Saeko's shoulders and the bullet wounds on Minami Rika's body were not included in the list of injuries.
"Crack~" Suddenly the sound of Busujima Saeko's sword polishing stopped abruptly. Busujima Saeko looked at the hand holding the sword blade in front of him in a daze, and then realized that it was Lu Yuan's hand. "Leave it to me. After the battle, I will restore it to new condition." Lu Yuan said looking into her eyes.
Geth's blood seems to have strong adhesion to smooth surfaces. It may seem contradictory to say this, but in fact it is true that the smoother the surface of an object is, the harder it is to remove the geth blood attached to it. This is true for the surface of Lu Yuan's visor and the blade of Busujima Saeko. This has to be said to be a strange phenomenon.
"Okay." Xiezi finally gave up his somewhat futile efforts, leaned weakly on Lu Yuan's shoulder, and fell asleep soon. Lu Yuan stroked her long hair with some distress, only to find that a piece of Ziezi's long black hair seemed to have been cut off in half by a bullet, and there were traces of burns at the break.
"I really hope what I did is right." Lu Yuan said to himself. He limited his power to mortals. Many times, he could only watch Busujima Saeko and the others fight bloody battles, get shot, injured, and even be blown away by grenades... But it was under this pressure that Busujima Saeko... , Nan Lixiang and Tali began to grow extremely fast at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Both Busujima Saeko and Minami Rika received special bloodlines and certain biological modification surgeries by Ke Xue. Physically speaking, they can no longer be called mortals. Moreover, Busujima Saeko also obtained the kendo that was born in Japan in each world - whether it is reality or fantasy world. Whether it's the classical New Yin style or the fantasy God style exorcist sword, she has an eclectic mix of skills. What she really lacks is actual combat experience. Nan Lixiang received a full set of n7 training courses, and the same was true.
Speaking of which, the battles they experienced in Academy Apocalypse were too tense and not intense enough to improve their strength... Only in this world can it be called a real battle.
Of course Lu Yuan can hold the whole place by himself like in the world of Academy Apocalypse! He can definitely do it. In his eyes, the geth have fatal flaws, and quantity is not a problem at all. But if he really does this, Busujima Saeko and the others, who cannot grow up, will gradually be reduced from their companions to flesh and blood...
Just when he was hesitating, Nan Lixiang, who was already asleep in his arms, suddenly pulled his hand over and held it tightly. Lu Yuan smiled softly and held her hand tightly with his backhand.
Feel a little calmer.

"Creak!" The chariot braked suddenly, shaking several people awake.
"Are we here?" Lu Yuan rubbed his hands on his face to wake himself up. But when he looked out the window, he found that the density of Ges around him was average, and he suddenly felt a little strange... The previous mission of Team Lu was usually to rush to the place with the densest concentration of Ges and the fiercest fighting, and then replace them. The citizens resisted the geth's attack! After waiting for the collapsed militia to recover, everyone can work together to push the geth out - and then leave it to the local militia for defense.
Precisely because they were all made of hard steel on the front, Team Lu's losses were so great. But now it's obviously not the next mission point?
"What's the situation?" Lu Yuan's car stopped, and several tanks driven by the greenskins also parked nearby. Their location was quite remote, and the battlefield was filled with the sound of gunfire, which did not attract the geth's attention for the time being.
"Shhhh! Listen-" Tully started to signal everyone to be quiet, and then increased the sound compensation system in the car.
"Help~Help! Someone help me!" A girl's voice called for help, causing Tali to stand up suddenly!
"Over there!" Everyone was looking for the location of the sound. Nan Lixiang, a sniper who is good at positioning, discovered her first! Nan Lixiang pointed to the northwest tower and said. Tali quickly operated the detection system in the tank to point it there, zooming in on the tower, and a little girl with golden hair appeared in the camera - she was kneeling on the edge of the tower, crying helplessly!
And behind her, the shadow of Geth has appeared on the rooftop...
"It's a pity that it's too late... let's go." After Lu Yuan looked at it, he sat back in his seat indifferently and motioned to Tully to drive away.
"You! You are cold-blooded!" Tully yelled angrily!
"Get on the road, Tully, that's an order! I know you just saw that girl and thought about what happened to you. But Tully, we have more important things to do. There are thousands of people out there. People are waiting for our rescue! You know...even for one minute at night, maybe they won't be able to survive..." Lu Yuan explained patiently.
"Fuck your mission! Fuck your order! Drive the damn car yourself!" Tully said with contempt! She grabbed a pair of grenades and tied them to her waist, picked up the shotgun and jumped out of the car, striding towards the water tower.
"You shouldn't have said that, you're just a bastard!" Nan Lixiang followed, but there was no accusation in her tone.
"Lu Jun has his own difficulties..." Busujima Saeko weakly helped Lu Yuan make a distinction. In fact, she was also hesitating whether to follow Tully to save people. But as a full-time melee assaulter, if she leaves, the team's assault capability will drop a lot... So Saeko is very confused.
"Alas, you are the one who doesn't understand!" Minami Rika looked at Busujima Saeko's aggrieved look and shook her head helplessly. After all, she received formal training from the county SWAT team and knew that as a soldier, sometimes she had to face very difficult choices - the mission or humanity; which side was more important, ten people or a hundred people; which was more important, morality or law - choosing not to It’s important, it’s important… to have the courage to bear the consequences!
