Luke piloted the "Phoenix" that transformed into Unit 4 and flew to the flank of the Osiris. At this time, one of the two "Partner Cavalry" fighting with Team B retreated due to damage, and only one was still barely holding on.
"Lin Ao, watch your back!"
Team B and Lin Ao were focused on the only remaining "Partner Cavalry" and did not notice the "Phoenix" appearing behind them in time.
"Yeah yeah yeah!"
As soon as Lin Ao turned around, he was thrown to the deck by the No. 4 "Phoenix". The people in Team B saw this and wanted to help, but were knocked away by the "Phoenix" holding Unit 2. They could only watch as Luke accelerated and flew out from the deck of the Osiris holding Unit 2. .
"I got you! Got you!"
Luke didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and he shouted excitedly.
"AI! Think of a way!"
Seeing himself falling from a high altitude to the sea, Lin Ao felt dizzy.
"Call me Tot, and activate the 'mouth cannon' as I taught you last time!"
The AI did teach him how to activate the "mouth cannon", but now Lin Ao was falling and couldn't even tell the difference between left and right. It took him a long time to find the button to activate the "mouth cannon".
After pressing the button, Unit 2's mouth opened a slit. Luke was wondering when he saw a bright light emitting from Unit 2's mouth.
"my eyes!"
The bright light blinded Luke and caused the Phoenix camera to temporarily malfunction. Luke lost control while invisible. A random press caused the "Phoenix" to deviate from the route agreed with Billy, and took Unit 2 to the east coast of the Black Sea...
…
Lin Ao suddenly raised his head and found that Unit 2 was on a small island. The "Phoenix" that just lost control fell while spinning in circles. Although the airbag of the No. 2 aircraft was deployed in time, Lin Ao's head still hit the airbag, the headrest, and twice during the fall. Hit the wall. Although everything had stopped now, his head hurt and he was dizzy, and everything he looked at was spinning.
"evil…"
Sensing that Lin Ao was about to vomit, AI Toth immediately opened the cockpit door. Lin Ao did not want to be scolded by the AI anymore, so he leaned on the screen and vomited outside the cabin.
"Very good. It's an improvement that you didn't vomit in the cockpit this time, but you vomited on the outer armor of No. 2 machine..."
Lin Ao ignored the AI. He took out the water bottle that was fixed under the seat and drank two gulps of water before he felt a little more comfortable.
"This is...where..."
"Don't move! Get off the machine obediently!"
Before Lin Ao could figure out the situation, he saw "Phoenix" appearing behind the No. 2 fuselage.
"It's time to use the laser knife!"
Lin Ao had no time to close the hatch and switched to the somatosensory driving mode. While letting the machine stand up, the handle of the laser knife slipped out from the cuff of the No. 2 machine, and attached it impartially to the palm of the No. 2 machine.
With one press of the button, a blue laser beam shoots out from the handle of the knife, maintaining the shape of the knife.
"So hot!"
Lin Ao placed the laser knife on the chest of Unit 2, but was frightened by the terrifying heat emitted by the laser knife, and then closed the hatch.
"Remember in the future, the heat within half a meter of the laser knife's blade is enough to evaporate a person!" AI reminded him.
"Phoenix" saw Unit 2 taking out a laser knife, and actually took out a laser knife to confront Unit 2.
This confrontation lasted for two minutes. Lin Ao did not dare to step forward because he had just experienced the heat of the laser knife, while Fenghuang also remained motionless.
"It's strange...please try to move."
Hearing what AI said, Lin Ao took a step forward, but Phoenix still didn't move.
"I understand. Unit 4 must have been damaged somewhere. Don't be afraid of him, he can't move."
The AI was right. The fall just now caused Unit 4 to be unable to deform, and its left leg also malfunctioned. It might even break if it moved randomly. Luke wanted to bluff the pilot of Unit 2, but Unit 2's reaction was faster than he thought.
Lin Ao learned this and became bolder. Now it was him who forced the opponent to come down.
"Get off Unit 4!"
Unit 2 aimed the laser knife at Phoenix's cockpit. Luke had no choice but to step on the steps and descend to the ground.
Lin Ao also stepped down on the step rope, walked towards Luke and asked him: "Where is this? Can you take me back to the Osiris?"
Luke smiled and took out a pistol from his driving suit.
"Don't move!"
Lin Ao was still too young, so he didn't expect that the pilots other than him were all regular soldiers, and there would definitely be some with guns.
"Well...it should be you who doesn't move around. I can stab your Unit 4 right away!"
"Hey, are you a fool? You've already come down from the cockpit, how can you stab me?"
This time it was Lin Ao who smiled: "You didn't know, right? There is an AI on Unit 2. With my order, your body will be turned into scrap metal immediately!"
"When you give the order, I will kill you with one shot!"
The situation became a deadlock again. Lin Ao's legs were not fully healed yet, and he could not rush forward to grab the gun (although he did not dare to think so at all). And Luke didn't dare to move. If Unit 4 was destroyed, he would also be killed by the pilot.
The AI suddenly spoke: "Let me remind you that you are currently in the New Muscovy Principality. I advise you to keep a low profile and hide the machine."
"What?"
"You crashed on a small island on the east coast of the Black Sea. Although no one lives here, if the reconnaissance plane of the New Muscovy Principality discovers you, you will all become prisoners of others."
"But my Unit 4 is damaged, how can I hide it!"
"You have to ask the pilot you pointed the gun at. With his permission, I can control the No. 2 unit to hide your No. 4 unit, and then hide the No. 2 unit."
Luke looked at Lin Ao, hesitated for a moment, then put away the gun and said, "I think we'd better wait for our respective rescues and make a bet on whose rescue will arrive first!"
Lin Ao breathed a sigh of relief and allowed the AI to act. So AI retracted the laser knife, put down the No. 4 machine, grabbed a few handfuls of sand and covered it, and took out a huge camouflage cloth from nowhere, and put the camouflage cloth on the body of the No. 2 machine when it got off. , the action is similar to putting on a quilt.
"I'm done, you continue." What AI said is really not a big deal.
"I'm going to repair Unit 4, although I don't know if it can be repaired..."
Luke turned and walked towards Unit 4. When he reached Unit 4, he realized that he could not climb up to his knees for inspection.
At this time, Lin Ao actually took the initiative to step forward and supported Luke to climb to the knee position of Unit 4. Luke had pointed a gun at him just now, but now the other party came to help him regardless of the past grudges, and was not worried about being hostile to him after repairing the machine. Thinking of this, Luke blushed in embarrassment.
"My name is Luke Rand, and I am the technical corporal of the new EU. What is your name?" Luke's tone and attitude improved a lot.
"My name is Lin Ao, uh, I...by the way, you look to be about the same age as me. Are you already a corporal?"
Lin Ao couldn't figure out whether he was a soldier or not, and he didn't know what his military rank was, so he had to change the subject. But he was also curious that Luke was already a corporal at such a young age. After all, Anton on the Osiris was just a sergeant. Although Bart Van Houten, who commanded Team A, was young, he could be considered a veteran, with the same military rank as Luke, that of corporal.
Luke shrugged and said: "It's a technical corporal. I don't know what other forces are like. The technicians in the new EU army also have military ranks. And I skipped a grade and graduated from the Mechanical Department of Oxford University. It's not too much to give me a corporal." ?”
"You are a technician, why do you pilot a humanoid weapon?"
"I don't know either... It was Colonel Billy Budd who made me a driver. I was supposed to develop humanoid weapons. But when I joined the army, I had to take a simulated humanoid weapon driving test, and my results were obviously average. , but the colonel didn’t know what he liked about me, so he used his privileges to transfer me to his unit, and made me the pilot of the No. 4 aircraft.”
Lin Ao was confused when he heard this. The army was still a strange place for him.
"Where did you get Unit 2? Who did Osiris send to snatch Unit 2?" Luke asked.
"Well...it wasn't the Osiris that snatched it, it was someone I knew who snatched it..."
"What?" Luke suddenly stood up, took out his gun and pointed it at Lin Ao, and asked in an angry voice: "Tell me! Who is it!"
"What, what's wrong?"
Lin Ao raised his hands. He thought Luke had put down his hostility, but a moment later he pointed the gun at himself again.
"Tell me! Who attacked the fortress of the More Chamber of Commerce! My parents work in the committee and followed the chairman's secretary to West Asia for a meeting. But because someone attacked the fortress, my parents were involved and killed!"
"But, I really don't know. Although I was there at the time, I didn't fire a single shot, really!"
"Then who do you think led you to attack?"
"It's Bashar! Our guerrilla captain. To be honest, before that operation, I was just a cook and was forced to participate in the attack!"
Luke's parents did die because they were involved in the attack by Bashar and others. Because the origin of the attacker was unclear, many people thought that it was the Osiris that owned the second machine. The purpose was to prevent HER from obtaining new types of weapons. Humanoid weapons.
Luke heard about this from the Colonel. After comforting him, the Colonel emphasized to him not to take revenge because the opponent this time was the Osiris. He thought he could find out from Lin Ao who the person who planned the attack was, so that he could take revenge in the future. But now he learned that there was someone else who killed him, and Lin Ao was one of them.
Luke glared at Lin Ao with tears in his eyes, but he couldn't bring himself to shoot.
After all, Lin Ao participated in that attack. He had never thought about whether innocent people were killed because of Bashar's actions. Now that the victim is standing in front of him, he feels that he needs to suffer for Bashar who saved him. So he closed his eyes and waited for Luke to sigh.
"We'll talk about any grudges you have later. Hide first!"
When the two heard the AI talking in an anxious tone, they knew something new was going on and hid quickly.
On the calm Black Sea, a humanoid weapon they had never seen suddenly appeared and landed on the island...
