This was their first time to experience artillery fire at close range.
"If these artillery fires are aimed at me, how should I avoid them?"
Liu Bo murmured.
He didn't know what to do.
Explode super high movement speed?
Or borrow Ke Ruoyun's "Sand Sea Rage" to gamble on those three seconds of luck?
Or, sit on the ground and wait for death!
Liu Bo looked at the huge fire curtain rising not far away. Perhaps he was prepared for danger in times of peace, and his whole person fell into a state of confusion.
Ke Ruoyun's reaction was exactly the opposite.
After a brief shock, her face turned red and her eyes seemed to be on fire.
What a powerful artillery fire!
It's really violent!
If I now have four pieces of tank-specific defense equipment stacked up, can I fight head-on?
Ke Ruoyun's breathing became rapid.
I really want to be bombarded!
Looking at the burning sea of fire, she couldn't help but want to open a shield and go in to feel it.
"Hey, calm down!"
Qin Xiaotian saw Ke Ruoyun standing there blankly and thought she was frightened.
He walked up to Ke Ruoyun, patted him on the shoulder, and then pointed at the chaotic machinery behind the huge trench.
Indicate to the other party that it's time to start work.
"Uh...Okay, okay!"
Ke Ruoyun was excited, the excitement in his eyes quickly disappeared, and he muttered: "I will guide the mechanical beast now!"
The mechanical beast didn't dare to come over across the ditch.
But she can take the initiative to go there!
Looking at Ke Ruoyun who ran out in a hurry, Qin Xiaotian felt like a sinister boss abusing child workers.
A slight twinge of guilt arose in my heart.
"Let's upgrade first!"
Qin Xiaotian stepped into the trench after Ke Ruoyun took the initiative to guide the mechanical beast.
Rich energy fluctuations surged in the trench, and a numbness and warmth arose spontaneously.
After baking at high temperature, even the air is hot.
Qin Xiaotian felt comfortable bathing in it.
One second. .
Ten seconds. . .
Thirty seconds!
Qin Xiaotian:? ? ?
what happened?
What about the anticipated upgrade?
It is obvious that it is no longer tempered, and the strength of the mecha has reached the limit of LV3!
The surrounding source power was already very strong, but Qin Xiaotian felt that the strength of the mecha had reached its limit.
These external sources of power can no longer achieve the tempering effect.
"Damn it, there must be something wrong!"
Qin Xiaotian was shocked and told Liu Bo and Ke Ruoyun about his problems.
"I don't know about this!" Liu Bo was also a little confused at this time.
Even if you encounter a talent bottleneck.
According to Qin Xiaotian's F-level talent level, he should be stuck at Black Iron Level LV12.
He has never heard of anyone being stuck at a lower level.
"I'm not broken, am I!" Qin Xiaotian was about to cry without tears.
Feel the energy escaping around you.
no problem.
They can all feel it, but they just can't continue to temper it.
Qin Xiaotian even felt that with the current state of the mecha, if he wanted to break through LV4, he didn't need the blessing of these escape sources.
Just relying on the concentration of source power that comes with the secret realm, you can easily break through after waiting for three to two minutes.
But the reality is so outrageous.
"I...uh..."
Just when Qin Xiaotian was distressed, Ke Ruoyun, who was going to pull the mechanical beast, said with some hesitation: "The teacher seems to have mentioned this before, but I can't remember clearly."
"What did you mention?" Qin Xiaotian asked quickly.
At this moment, he was like a drowning man grasping at straws.
Although Luan Shuangyu and Yan Yan asked him to paddle, he had an attitude of showing off, but he didn't want to really die!
"It seems that the mecha cannot break through continuously at the same time."
Ke Ruoyun tilted his little head and said with some uncertainty: "The teacher mentioned it when explaining the mecha levels. I can't remember the details. It was too long ago."
Mecha level explanation.
This part of the teaching seems to be the content of kindergarten.
It's been over ten years.
It's indeed quite a long time ago.
"Can't we make consecutive breakthroughs in the same time period?" Qin Xiaotian murmured to himself.
He had just been promoted to level 3 a few hours ago. Does the upgrade still require a cooling time?
He scratched the back of his head.
I miss Luan Shuangyu a little.
If she were here, these questions should be answered.
"When Ruoyun mentioned this, I also remembered it."
Following Ke Ruoyun's words, Liu Bo suddenly shouted at the other end of the Xu channel: "I heard that those high-level figures have a period of recovery after each breakthrough."
"Xiaotian, don't worry, Xu Xingyue is about to advance to LV4 now, let her out and give it a try.
Upgrading from LV4 to LV5 requires more than 2,000 mechanical beasts, and our killing speed is also very fast.
We'll see if she can make consecutive breakthroughs. "
I heard Liu Bo’s suggestion.
Qin Xiaotian's heart moved slightly.
Judging from the source of energy escaping here, at least seven to eight hundred mechanical beasts were killed.
This much source of power can only last ten minutes.
I can't absorb it now. If I just wait, it will be wasted, which will make me feel bad.
However, the sleep time Xu Xingyue set at that time was six hours. If he wakes up hastily now, will anything go wrong?
He was a little unsure.
"If the dormant cabin suddenly wakes up, will there be any sequelae for the sleeping people?" Qin Xiaotian did not directly activate the wake-up function, but first asked on the communication channel.
Ke Ruoyun shook his head: "I have never used a sleeping cabin before."
She and her sister have been dependent on each other since childhood.
Where have I ever seen such advanced things?
Assist sleep.
It really takes three seconds to enter deep sleep.
At the same time, the built-in nutrient solution can also supplement the elements needed by the body and assist the body in completing physiological metabolism.
Ke Ruoyun had never touched this thing before entering the examination room.
Not to mention the user experience.
Liu Bo was a little hesitant when he heard Qin Xiaotian's inquiry: "I'm not sure about this, so let's wait for her to wake up naturally."
Normal people wouldn't use this thing.
Liu Bo turned over the sleeping capsule containing Li Yu in his hand and looked at it.
There isn't even an instruction manual at the back.
"Then you and Ruoyun come over. The energy of the hundreds of mechanical creatures here cannot be wasted!"
Qin Xiaotian sighed.
He didn't expect that the upgrade would require a cooling time.
I just don’t know how long it will take to reach the black iron level.
However, judging from Luan Shuangyu's promotion speed to Silver LV13 in three years, this cooling time should not be too long.
From black iron to silver LV13, there are a total of 41 small levels, 36 months.
Not even for a month on average.
The cooling time required for this upgrade is acceptable.
Of course, Qin Xiaotian also knows that this is just ideal data.
It has only been a dozen days since he was promoted to LV2.
In fact, black iron does not require such a long cooling time.
"It's better to go to Ruoyun. My side is still more than 20 kilometers away from your side. If I speed up, these mechanical beasts will fall behind." Liu Bo glanced at the map and shook his head.
With his current speed, he can indeed temper the mecha before the source of power blends into the surrounding environment.
But not worth it.
He could catch up, but the mechanical beast behind him couldn't keep up.
"Then Ruoyun come over!"
Qin Xiaotian glanced at the map and suppressed the feeling of disappointment in his heart.
Soon, he completed the handover with Ke Ruoyun.
…
at the same time.
A manta ray starship left the docking port with a 'whoosh' sound.
Taking advantage of the darkness, it quickly entered the atmosphere of 021B.
Hovering quietly more than 30,000 meters above the Dune Bay Campground.
"Hey!"
A hole opened in the hatch of the stingray starship.
Five figures jumped down the moment the hatch opened.
In mid-air, a few glimmers of light flashed.
Five mechas appeared quietly and fell rapidly towards the ground.
"Why don't we just leave this thankless task to the people who opened up the wasteland!"
In the communication channel of the full mecha team, a person said angrily: "Those people are paid, what about us? Nothing!"
"Okay, Fatty, just think of it as a vacation."
Someone in the channel consoled me; "We haven't had a vacation in almost a year. If we Jiangcheng candidates hadn't caused trouble this time, it might not have been our turn to take a vacation."
"But, whoever kills the wild Mother Queen in the Star-Moon Secret Realm first will belong to him!"
The man who was called the fat man had a face full of grievances: "Why did our military camp work so hard to close the defense line? It was almost closed. We finally saw some meat and fish, but we didn't even eat it ourselves. We were stared at by those guys who were opening up the wasteland." On!"
"Captain, the fat man is right, I am also a little unconvinced."
Another voice sounded on the channel: "In the entire Xingyue Secret Realm military camp, we are the only one guarding the gold, and the remaining dozen or so silver guards are no match for the Silver Empress.
It was said above that we were asked to deal with the matter at Jiangcheng Examination Hall, but I think it was clear that they were trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
When we go back, not to mention the Queen Mother's core, she probably won't even have parts of her in our military camp! "
The Mechanical Empress in Dune Bay Camp is only at the Black Iron level.
An ordinary bronze-level team can win with a little effort as long as the opponent's weapon slots are full.
If nothing else works, the silver guards from their military camp will randomly send one over.
It's completely hand-held.
But the result is.
There is a paper order above.
It is said that the safety of candidates must be protected without violating the assessment rules.
The Baiyin guards in the military camp are not experienced enough in handling these matters.
Still needs to settle.
Then they were recruited.
"Okay, don't say anything anymore. Obedience to orders is the first rule of the military camp, and the priority is higher than anything else."
"Go down later and fake the scene to make the traces more natural. Let the Queen Mother out first. Someone from the Jiangcheng assessment team will cooperate and make relevant records."
"Remember, you must keep an eye on her after she is released. You must not let her escape from the defense area or harm the candidates' lives.
After the assessment is over, if we catch the female queen, our Jiangcheng assessment team will follow legal and reasonable procedures and take her back to the Jiangcheng training ground to be raised in captivity.
This is something that benefits the entire Jiangcheng. There can be no accidents. Do you understand? "
The leading mecha issued instructions in a serious tone.
In fact, he knew it in his heart.
Compared to a silver-level mother queen who is uncontrollable, destined to be slaughtered, and eventually turned into a resource, becoming a direct descendant of a certain big shot to advance to the talent level.
This black iron-level mother queen is controllable, can be kept in captivity, and can be brought back to improve the biodiversity of the Jiangcheng training ground, which is more in line with the interests of those people.
Whether it is city publicity, reputation, or government performance.
Or it may be some resource exchange behind the scenes.
All must be more consistent!
But he could only keep these hidden rules in his heart.
Once he is exposed, certain interests will be involved.
He is a gold level.
After all, it’s not enough.
"I understand, but if she is killed by the examinee during the assessment, wouldn't the assessment team just lose everything?" Someone in the team questioned;
"Oh, how could it be?"
The leader sneered: "One of the tasks given to us from above is to restrict the activity area of this queen to the 077 group.
Even if he is killed, he is still a genius candidate from our Jiangcheng.
This is the fruitful result of our Jiangcheng education.
With this as a publicity outlet, wouldn't it be easy to attract the new population from surrounding cities to settle in Jiangcheng? "
"Uh, so many tricks?"
"What do you think? Anyway, neither the left nor the right will suffer. What they just lack is an excuse to write home about!"
"In this way, Baiyin Guards is indeed too immature. The depth of the water here is still clear to you, boss."
"..."
…
In Zone 42.
Qin Xiaotian and the other three numbly guided the direction of the mechanical beasts.
Every now and then a shot would be fired.
The energy that escaped after the death of those mechanical beasts was also divided between Ke Ruoyun and Liu Bo.
For more than an hour.
Because the mechanical beasts are getting denser and denser, on average, both of them have absorbed the power of thousands of mechanical beasts.
"Fuck, Xiaotian, look at this crab!"
Not long after Qin Xiaotianggang handed over to Liu Bo, Liu Bo's voice suddenly rang.
His tone was full of excitement: "Is this the mechanical beast you are looking for?"
As he spoke, Liu Bo showed a video captured by a drone.
The video is very short.
It only takes ten seconds.
At the beginning of the video, there was nothing unusual.
Just an ordinary detection.
But just when the Firefly drone approached a group of crabs.
Before I could respond, the screen went black.
Then comes the perspective switch.
The Firefly drone behind captured the entire process.
The video shows that when the Firefly drone in front was approaching a group of mechanical beasts that looked like crabs, it was suddenly hit by a series of energy bullets the size of bananas.
Through the video, Liu Bo also discovered.
There are more than fifty mechanical beasts in that group.
Clearly a tribe.
"Damn it, where are these mechanical beasts?!"
After watching the video Liu Bo sent over, Qin Xiaotian, who was originally a little numb and sleepy, suddenly became energetic.
Crabs wandering in the desert.
Each crab has a cannon-like weapon on its back.
At that time, the Firefly drone was hovering two hundred meters above their group.
Before he could even react, he was blasted by a shuttle of energy bullets.
If I hadn't known that this was Blue Star, not Valoran, and it wasn't Pokémon.
Qin Xiaotian should have suspected that the crabs below carrying machine guns were the descendants of Urgot and Blastoise.
