Anton had already figured out how much Edward was worth. He asked Lin Ao to go to Brooklyn to chase Edward's helpers. He also ordered the humanoid weapon team A to land in Manhattan to search for the enemy, and he sniped on the Osiris.
Lin Ao felt worried as soon as he left the hangar. New York City was full of ruins. Where should he find the enemy in such an environment?
"Excuse me, the bridge, where should I look?"
"The location where the enemy attacked just now was probably near the Brooklyn Museum. You can go there to look for it first."
"Looking for it? I don't even know where the museum is! It's all in ruins. Where can I find a museum?"
AI Toth put the previous map of New York City on the display: "I have brought up the previous map of New York City for you. The rest depends on your luck."
"You're lucky..." Unit 2 landed on the ground and moved cautiously towards the direction of the museum. The enemies nearby stopped attacking a few minutes ago and may have moved to other places. Lin Ao thought of his previous experience at the ruins of Troy. At that time, the bandits disassembled the eagle-like arms and used them as bait, waiting for Lin Ao to get closer and detonating the bomb. He was worried that it would be the same this time.
Thinking of this, Lin Ao's movement slowed down again.
…
Humanoid Weapons Team A will also fall on Lin. Captain Bart looked at the computer: "Our current location is Tompkins Square Park on Manhattan Island. Unit 3 just launched an attack on the Empire State Building. Anton The sergeant shot him down, and now it is speculated that he is hiding in the area near the Linguo Building. We must act as Sergeant Anton’s eyes and try our best to capture Unit 3 alive, do you understand?”
"Understood!"
"Okay, action. Heart at your feet!"
As soon as Bart reached his feet, his body crushed a crooked flagpole, and a cannonball was immediately fired from the north side of the square park.
"Isn't it? We encountered a trap so quickly!?"
To their surprise, the shell did not come towards them, but exploded above.
"Where are you aiming?"
Miao Haosi jumped to the place where the shells were fired and found that it was just an old anti-tank gun and posed no threat to their humanoid weapons.
"What the hell! It's just an anti-tank gun. It's still the same style as it was more than ten years ago. Was all the people in the New Muscovy Principality wiped out by traps of this level before?"
It was a false alarm. Bart breathed a sigh of relief and cleared his throat: "Don't be careless. I don't know if your opponent has any other tricks."
After this, Team A felt more at ease. Since even old anti-tank guns are used as traps, it means that their opponents not only lack weapons but also lack the skills to create traps.
So they moved together in the direction of the Empire State Building, triggering several more such traps along the way. Triggers are always placed in some strange but easily accessible places, and some are simply infrared devices.
Bart felt that something was wrong. He motioned for everyone to stop and asked, "How many traps have we just triggered? The last one was a few minutes ago?"
Li Si: "About five, they all fired upwards. The latest one was at the intersection just now."
Bart slapped his forehead and shouted, "Oops! These shells are not traps, but inform the enemy of our position! If the opponent really only has one person, he will need such a device in such a big New York City!"
The members of Team A became nervous and looked around for anything suspicious.
"Get out of here! Get out of here!"
Anton, who was monitoring the battlefield from afar on the Osiris, suddenly issued a warning to them. Before a few people could react, they saw a laser fired in their direction from the ruins of the Flat Iron Building in the northwest. But this laser did not hit anyone in Team A, but shot directly into the ruins next to them.
Miao Haosi said happily: "The shot missed!"
Did Edward really miss his shot? No, there were a lot of explosives buried under the ruins he shot at. The moment Miao Haosi spoke, the ground in front of Team A was almost overturned by the explosion. The fragments thrown up by the explosion were scattered everywhere. Thanks to the Osiris's previous purchase of a large number of shields, otherwise the entire A team would have been wiped out here.
"Hey! Are you okay? The smoke is too thick and I can't see clearly."
After the explosion, Anton switched to an infrared sniper scope to check whether Team A was safe, but the smoke raised by the explosion was mixed with a lot of materials that interfere with infrared rays. He didn't know whether it was intentional or a coincidence.
"It's okay, Sergeant Anton. We're all okay, thanks to the shield!"
"I was attacked! It was a laser weapon!"
As soon as Bart reported that he was safe, Miao Haosi was attacked. Although Miao Haosi couldn't see his surroundings clearly due to the smoke and dust, he could sense that the attack just came from the south. He roared and fired wildly towards the south. When the smoke cleared, he realized that he had hit nothing.
"Miao Haosi, Miao Haosi! Are you okay?" Bart found Miao Haosi's location and felt relieved when he saw that his body was only scratched.
"Captain, someone attacked me in that direction just now!"
Miao Haosi pointed at the ruins of the building in front of him. After his random shooting, the building was almost razed to the ground.
"What are you doing...The enemy is obviously on that building."
As if to confirm Bart's words, another laser shot from the Flat Iron Building. A team member hid at the intersection. He was just glad that he had dodged a shot, but in the blink of an eye, he saw a 5-meter-tall, dark, strange machine with four legs appearing at the other end of the street. The body of this thing is like an extended version of an armored vehicle, with a rifle for humanoid weapons carried on its back.
"What the hell..."
Before the teammate could react, the laser rifle on the back of the mysterious machine opened fire, shooting the "lifeguard" he was driving in the head, and then disappeared.
"There is another enemy nearby! Carrying a laser rifle!"
Now Bart believed what Miao Haos said. Miao Haos was not hit just now, maybe it was the smoke that helped.
"Everyone, watch your flanks, beware of back-to-back sneak attacks!" Bart contacted Lin Ao, who was still in Brooklyn: "Lin Ao, have you found the enemy?"
Lin Ao scratched his head: "No, I've gone around in a big circle and there's nothing."
"Of course not! Because the enemy has come to us, come and support us!!"
…
Sergeant Anton drove Unit 3 out of the Pingtie Building. He thought he had seen through his opponent's tricks, but now he realized that he was completely passive because he would always be one step slower than his opponent.
"Send Team B down to support Team A."
"It's too dangerous. What if Team B is also ambushed?"
The staff officers in the bridge were noisy, and Dr. Hohenheim finally arrived at the bridge. When he saw him coming, Captain Shepard ignored the politeness and asked him directly: "Doctor, we are fighting the Ten Swords Unit 3. If you have any information that can help us, please hurry!"
Dr. Hohenheim was stunned for a moment, looked at the ruins of New York City outside the window and asked, "Did Unit 3 come here?"
"yes!"
"Oh...the codename of Unit 3 is Erlangshen. He is equipped with two laser rifles with different ranges, one of which can be used for sniping at medium and close ranges. Because we don't want to add too much burden to the body, it is not like Anton Zhong. The warrior's hundred steps can truly realize long-range laser sniping."
"Any more?"
"Well, Unit 3 also needs a special laser melee weapon, and beware of the barking dog."
"Howling dog??"
Dr. Hohenheim made a snarling dog gesture in the air with his hand, but no one could understand it. A staff officer: "Well... there was a soldier who saw an armored vehicle with four legs. Is that what you were drawing?"
Hohenheim looked a little disappointed when he saw that no one could figure out the appearance of the Howling Dog based on his own gestures. He said, "Ah, that's it. Unit 3 is a machine developed for street fighting, and the Howling Dog is an unsupported vehicle. It is controlled by the pilot of Unit 3 and its own AI."
As soon as this statement came out, the staff officers all looked at each other: "Are you...really just one enemy, trying to trick us all around?"
Dr. Hohenheim took out a cigarette: "I don't know what's going on below, but from what you said, it should be like this."
