The car body cannot enter the city because it is small and has many shelters, so it is friendly to small units.
It is not so friendly to mobile strongholds - and if the main gun is used to fire randomly in the city, the final loss will also be counted on the mercenaries.
Otherwise, let everyone fight without scruples, and all kinds of powerful weapons will be used indiscriminately. If nothing else, the city that was finally built will be smashed into a mess. Who will bear the loss?
The answer is mercenaries.
It would be fine if it was just accidental damage during a fight, but if heavy artillery was used in the city, it would be a different concept.
Seifer allowed Lin Shenxue to wander within the defensive circle to a limited extent to protect the car body - these words made her very dissatisfied. Wasn't it protecting the crew?
Heading towards the sloping passage, Seifer answered casually: "What do you think is more valuable than this advanced experimental stronghold?"
'That can't be said! '
"Well... let me put it another way. You are my important crew member. If the armor is destroyed, your life will be safe, so protecting it is also protecting you."
Lin Shenxue was obviously moved.
So Cypher continued: "Does this make you feel better?"
'……really. '
For some reason, it took a long time, and even Seve was standing at the door before she answered, but the text passed was only in a standard format, and I couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
Women are so weird, oh, it seems like I am too now, so that’s okay.
Cypher used this method to relieve the pressure of the upcoming battle and wait for the door to open.
Yes, although he has a body of steel, his heart still belongs to ordinary people. When facing the unknown and the possibility of losing the battle, Seifer will also be nervous.
Constantly rehearsing the encounter he might see next in his mind, the moment the closed door opened, he stood by the door and waited for a while.
It was completely dark inside, with only the mottled light of the city looking familiar. The body detected that there was a large amount of heat source that had not dissipated. It looked like...
The city's defense machines were scattered all over the city. There was even one embedded in the metal plate of the gate, constantly spurting out some red light.
There was silence in the communication, and no signal could be traced.
Slowly walking into the city entrance, Cypher allowed the thrusters to operate normally, and the machine immediately slid forward - during this period, the city remained quiet.
The management office building was completely flattened, and not even a single intact brick could be found. The parking area looked okay, left untouched as no cars were parked.
The maintenance area that I visited before is also intact. After all, all the combat vehicles have gone outside... The only difference here from before is that the combat units fell on the ground, or were embedded in the ground or in the building.
There are not only two legs, but also some self-discipline machines, mobile defense turrets and even fixed defense turrets.
It looks advanced, but there is also a lot of equipment with unified standards. In Seifer's scan, the number of I/O Enterprise's machines is much higher than those with weird paint colors and even weird shapes.
In just the area visible to the scanner, there are at least eight or nine various machines belonging to both sides scattered around.
If Cypher can clean up the battlefield now, not only will he immediately become wealthy and free, but he can also be said to be financially free.
What a joke, these assets will be liquidated after the war, and it won’t be the mercenaries’ turn to intervene.
Soon, Cypher's body passed through the square in the central area of the city. Several holes were opened in the previously bustling square, and many explosives had been used here.
Yet it still looked flat and vast, unscathed—but with no living people moving around.
So when Safer tuned up the frequency and tried to contact the outside, the built-in alarm sounded one second faster than the body alarm.
The hands were faster than the brain, and the gliding machine instantly sided. As it left the spot, an armor-piercing bomb penetrated the ground, blasting a small crater.
More turrets suddenly rose up. Without saying a word, Seifer hid in the building complex and quickly walked through it. The two weapons in his hands fired back with the assistance of fire control.
Then he understood why he had to go to great lengths to adjust the firing arc of the energy weapon - after doing it for a long time, the beam shot out could curve multiple times in the air and then hit the target?
What a magical design this is.
No matter how much he complained in his heart, the energy beam hit the turret, penetrated it and exploded. Even if there are such explosions one after another, as long as the fire control can take care of it, there will be no blind spots. All I can say is...it smells good, it smells good.
Although the speed of the machine has decreased, the reaction speed and distance of dodge have also decreased, but in exchange for better firepower, it does not count as a decrease in strength.
Traveling quickly, I suddenly received a message in the communication.
'Shasha... please help, please help, here... rustle... vision...'
There was also a series of unclear call signs and names, and it seemed that the city management unit was under fire attack.
Seve immediately turned to that side, and the thrusters maintained a normal cycle. Although the speed was a little slower, the balance was better - no matter how fast those fixed turrets turned, they were like turtles in front of the aircraft.
In a few minutes, he was walking through the city to the sinkhole area where the collapse had occurred.
The foundation has been rebuilt here to create a downward transportation channel. Under the road that is wide enough for oversized vehicles to pass, is the new urban area that has been leveled and covered with metal frames for support.
Needless to say, it is a vision in the middle of the city. However, the portal of this vision has only been built about half way, and even the top has not had time to merge, so it is just there in such an awkward manner.
There are no traces of battle.
Cypher immediately turned around, and as expected, a series of small combat bombs roared out. After the roar of explosion, a silver-black armor rushed out from the shadows.
Pulling the trigger, the weapon launches and retreats backwards. When the missile pod hanging on the back of the opponent's shoulder is being loaded, it keenly swings a strange electric whip that can be stretched extremely long!
"..."
There was no operation to report one's name. The machine launched an attack completely inhumanely, and even rushed forward with a one-way forward defense shield.
He was about to distance himself and use long-range firepower to eliminate the opponent, but Cypher suddenly stopped his footing and sprinted forward with full power!
This act of seemingly trying to catch the waving energy whip with his fragile body is because the threat from behind seems even more terrifying.
As expected, at the moment when he sprinted and jumped out of the range covered by the long whip, a blazing bullet penetrated directly through the floor where he should have retreated just now.
Seeing that the sneak attack failed, the other machine that was hanging on the wall stopped acting. It jumped down from above, spraying barrages at Seifer and his teammates, and also rushed over.
"..."
Two against one, or new model against old model, are you playing dirty tricks?
Even a steel player like Seve, who is born to fight suddenly, can't actually use this old model to fight against two guys who are obviously driver killers.
The three machines were entangled in the unfinished area, and they were all suffering varying degrees of damage... These two guys seemed to be letting off steam?
Keenly aware of this, Cypher ran away to the entrance where the visions were concentrated without hesitation.
Sure enough, the movements of the two machines immediately slowed down simultaneously, obviously expecting him to do this.
Once the speed slowed down, the attack was immediately fierce, so after three or two contacts, Seifer used his innate keen awareness to make a mistake and slide sideways by relying on the toughness of the machine.
While estimating the damage to the aircraft, all the engine energy was pushed to the engine behind it, and it hit one of the aircraft at an unstoppable speed.
The machine was hit and unbalanced, and the other one was about to flee, but saw a "click" sound in Seifer's left arm, and the gun was replaced with a strange sleeve.
'Buzz...boom! '
The machine that thought it would be perfectly safe to dodge was caught off guard at extremely close range by a sharp and extremely strong firing pin that pierced the connection between its shoulder and body.
The sleeve of the firing pin burst out with flames and high-pressure hissing gas. Cypher maintained this posture and continued to advance!
The armor and structure peeled off, and the three machines rushed into the gate of the phenomenon together under the overload propulsion of several nozzles.
The city, which just a moment ago was still echoing with the metallic noise of explosions and aircraft collisions, suddenly returned to tranquility.
There were only a few crackling sounds of flammable materials left in the entire city, as well as the roar of special energy leaking out from the defeated machines.
