Captain Shepard was covered with a sheet, lying on the captain's seat that had been transformed into a lounge chair, nervously waiting for the Osiris to leave the Ohio state line. His fingers tapped on the armrest uneasily. When the tail of the Osiris left the state border, his tense body relaxed, and he slid off the back of the lounge chair, waving to correspondent Jessica: "Bring me a piece of cake! "
However, he had just finished when he heard a loud alarm inside the ship, and dozens of missiles flew from the front and left and right sides of the Osiris. The automatic missile interception system on the ship responded faster than Rao, and successfully intercepted most of the missiles before everyone knew what happened.
Although no one expected that HER would launch an attack as soon as the Osiris entered Indiana, everyone was already nervous and could now enter combat mode faster than usual.
"Captain, 15 Yingyangs are coming out from three directions: north, west, and south, and the HER battleship appears due in the west!"
Although Shepard's mental state is not as good as before, as a veteran, his battle orders are still sonorous and powerful: "Execute defense plan C, attack with all hands! Let our enemies see how powerful we are!"
Humanoid weapon teams A and B landed on the ground, and the combined battleship cannons blocked the enemy's approach. The Osiris continued to move westward, preparing to engage enemy warships.
After landing, Old Jack contacted Edward and said to him: "Edward, have your wingman keep an eye on the direction of the state border to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks!"
"It's not called Wingman, it's called Roaring Dog. Thank you!"
After Edward landed, he took out the laser rifle and put it on the back of Howling Dog. Then he just pointed in a direction, and Howling Dog went to the ambush location by himself. Edward scanned the surrounding environment and found that the enemies were all heading towards Team A and Team B, so he found a bunker and prepared to snipe.
…
The Osiris is already engaged in battle with Indiana's HER troops, and there is constant artillery fire here at Ohio University. Drizzt stood on the hillside and used a triple semi-automatic smoothbore cannon to prevent the HER troops from going up the mountain, but it was difficult for him to deal with an enemy several times his size alone. He was puzzled and angry, wondering where Lin Ao had gone? Didn't he go to my mountain bag? If he were there, the enemy would definitely not reach the bottom of the mountain so quickly.
Facing Drizzt's advantageous bombardment, Major Kondo was not in a hurry to fight back. He knew that the artillery shells of the North American Rescue Alliance and these wild foxes were limited. He only needed to keep making the soldiers look like they were going up the mountain. Even if Drizzt wanted to Wanting to save some ammunition, he was alone and did not dare to let the enemy get close.
"Major! Nishikido-kun's machine has been destroyed!"
"Don't be afraid! Keep provoking me, the Death Knight will soon run out of ammunition!"
The other half of Kondo's troops were restraining each other with Anton, who was also alone. The automatic cannons deployed by Anton in the mountain forest successfully held back five or six Yingyangs and successfully destroyed two of them. However, the enemy's morale did not shrink at all. While approaching Anton, they destroyed the automatic cannons hidden everywhere.
Seeing that the number of automatic cannons was getting smaller and smaller, Anton's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He wiped the sweat and aimed at the target with breathless concentration. As he pressed his fingers, another Eagle was destroyed by the laser that passed through the forest. But this did not make Anton feel relaxed. As the number of enemies decreased, it became increasingly difficult for him to shoot the next enemy.
The sound of artillery fire from the direction of Ohio University was endless, and he didn't know whether Lin Ao and Drizzt were in an easier situation than him. He tried to call for support, but Lin Ao did not respond, and Drizzt could not escape. Anton had to focus on keeping an eye on his enemies and try to lighten the burden on others.
"There are 3 more... 3 more..."
Anton's finger on the trigger of the sniper rifle sight has become stiff from maintaining one posture for a long time. Anton prays to the gods not to miss the opportunity the next time he pulls the trigger because his finger cannot move. Fortunately, as a battle-hardened sniper, his fingers had never let him down. Anton pulled the trigger again, and another enemy lost the ability to fight.
But this was the last round of ammunition for Anton's laser sniper rifle, and he had to take out his spare live ammunition sniper rifle. The power of live ammunition weapons is much lower than that of laser weapons. Unless it hits the vital point, it is difficult to defeat the enemy with one blow, but it is very difficult to hit the vital point in the mountains and forests. Anton was worried that if the enemy found out that he had run out of laser bombs, he would launch a desperate charge, and he would be in trouble.
The sound of artillery fire from Ohio University in the distance was interrupted, and Drizzt had fired the last smoothbore cannon shell.
"The Death Knight has no ammunition, charge!!!"
Kondo roared excitedly. In his opinion, Drizzt would definitely be defeated by him this time. Normally Drizzt would choose to retreat, but now that the refugees at Ohio University have nowhere to escape, Drizzt can only stay and fight for his life.
Three Yingyangs came up to kill them, using dense bullets to repay Drizzt for suppressing their firepower just now. Drizzt raised his gun to fight back, but the machine gun he had been using for a long time actually exploded at this critical moment. He threw the machine gun away angrily and shouted: "Where is Lin Ao? Come and help me! Could it be? Have you been killed!?"
…
Lin Ao slowly opened his eyes, only to feel pain all over his body. When he looked up, he found that all the monitors were black, and he was very frightened.
"Thoth! Where is Thoth? Did you break it too??"
"My system is inside the No. 2 unit, so it won't be broken so easily."
A familiar voice sounded, which made Lin Ao feel relieved. He asked: "Did we fall just now? Where is this? Why are the monitors black? Is it broken? ?"
AI Toth said calmly: "Don't panic, we fell. Our current position should be about 1,000 meters above the ground. As for the monitors, they are not broken, it's just that the surroundings are so dark."
"1000 meters?? Can Unit 2 fly back to the ground?"
"Unfortunately, this altitude exceeds the low-altitude flight altitude limit of Plane 2."
Lin Ao couldn't believe his ears. Could it be that he was trapped in a dark hole and couldn't get out? He had never heard the word claustrophobia before, but now Lin Ao was experiencing similar symptoms. He looked at the dark monitor, feeling extremely cold and having goosebumps on his skin. He felt as if the cockpit bulkhead was pressing on him, and he curled up uneasily.
The AI discovered the anomaly in Lin Ao's body data and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, I have some good news for you!"
"Is there some bad news to follow!"
"Hey, please don't remove the bottom, please! That's right, but you should listen to the good news first, that is, most of the functions of Unit 2 are basically normal and it has not been broken."
"You, most of you?"
"Well, only the weapon system is broken. When Unit 2 uses a weapon, the unit itself will recognize the information hidden inside the weapon. Only when it is correct can the weapon be used. Now the unit cannot recognize the information of the weapon. But since we are trapped Weapons are of little help in a deep pit."
"..."
The AI's so-called comfort had no effect at all. Lin Ao no longer curled up, but instead tried to find a way up in the dark environment like a panicked headless fly. He tried to take off, but couldn't get very high and wasn't allowed to land. He tried to climb up, but the walls of the sudden pit were very smooth and vertical, making it impossible to grab anything he could let go of.
"Can't we contact the Osiris??"
"I tried it earlier, but I don't know why the communication was interfered with."
"Someone help me!!!" Lin Ao's hands were scratching at the wall again.
"It's useless. You can't climb up. Save your energy. The food and water you carry can last for a week at most."
From the AI's perspective, Lin Ao was doing useless work, but suddenly, Unit 2's hand seemed to hit something that looked like a handle, and Lin Ao pulled the wrench without any hesitation.
In an instant, the dark pit was illuminated. If it had been brighter a little later, Lin Ao's eyes would have adapted to the darkness just now, and would have been blinded by the sudden brightness. Fortunately, he is only a little unwell now and can see things after closing his eyes and taking a rest.
"This...is a weapons warehouse!!!"
The AI's eyes were blinded by the flash. Before Lin Ao regained his sight, it discovered that this so-called sudden pit was actually a weapons warehouse! The wall of the pit that Lin Ao was trying to climb just now was made of smooth iron. No wonder he couldn't even squeeze a bit of soil after grabbing half of it.
"Here?? Weapons warehouse??"
Lin Ao couldn't believe his eyes. At a depth of 1,000 meters underground, someone actually dug a warehouse that could accommodate Unit 2. Moreover, the walls of the 1,000-long tunnel leading to the ground were entirely made of metal. This was a huge amount of work.
"Does the North American Rescue Alliance have the strength to build this kind of warehouse? Could it have been built by the North American forces before the war broke out?"
AI rejected Lin Ao's method: "No, the North American forces before the war did not develop humanoid weapons at all. But you see, there are all weapons for humanoid weapons hanging here, and they are different from the equipment that any force already has! In my opinion, this is the legendary relic that you have been looking for for a long time!"
Lin Ao opened his mouth wide and did not accept the AI's words for a moment. It is said that this era was at least tens of thousands of years away from now. Can the underground arsenal from that time still survive to this day?
"Lin Ao! Look there! There is an elevator that may be able to take us back to the ground!"
Hearing the existence of the elevator, Lin Ao's heart finally fell to the ground. Now that he had hope of going out, he became interested in these unseen weapons before him. He tried to take off one of the guns, but the moment Unit 2's fingers touched the gun body, the gun suddenly turned into dust and fell to the ground.
Lin Ao was taken aback and accidentally touched the wall with weapons hanging on it. With this shock, dozens of weapons hanging on the wall turned into dust piled on the toes of Unit 2...
"Me? I give cultural relics from tens of thousands of years ago to??"
Lin Ao thought he had done something wrong and almost cried. AI comforted: "I can't blame you, according to my analysis. You accidentally detonated the Yingyang missile warehouse, and those missiles almost exploded close to the ground, which accidentally activated the door of the arsenal that had been closed. This place has been isolated from the human world for too long. The people who hid the weapons here did not expect that this place would be awakened again after ten thousand years. These weapons cannot withstand ten thousand years of time, so when the outside air enters here again, they cannot Leave it as it is, weathered!”
Lin Ao said angrily: "So that's it... It's a pity that these weapons can't be left behind. They are witnesses of civilization thousands of years ago..."
"No one is left? Take a closer look."
After being reminded by the AI, Lin Ao discovered that there was actually a meteor hammer used as a humanoid weapon hanging on the wall...
