"Are we just going to leave like this? Will the child be okay?" Su Lanxi still looked at her sister who had been silent in the passenger seat with some worry and said.
Since Xiao Jinzi was driving the Arbitrator, and Su Lanyu's driving skills were simply indescribable, in the end, the Leopard had to be left to Su Lanxi to control. There was no other way, the vacated tank couldn't be dragged around or thrown away.
"Don't worry, if those people are not stupid, they won't gather to besiege that child again." Sister Su Lanyu replied, glancing at her younger sister who still had a worried look on her face.
Su Lanxi didn't say anything, staring at the rear of the car in front, maintaining the same speed and driving the Leopard with concentration. But Su Lanyu knew that her sister was still worried about the little boy. This was her personality. No one can change her, otherwise, she would no longer be her sister.
After leaving Kara Town, there is no need to identify the direction at all. Just walk in the direction with the most smoke. Follow the river embankment road and cross the lake guarding Kara Town. After walking for less than ten miles, what comes into view is The black smoke that shot straight into the sky was about to cover the entire sky. Even though it was still afternoon, the pitch-black sky was like a night that had fallen in advance. At the same time, the surface of the vehicle showed that the outside temperature had reached 40 degrees Celsius. Many degrees, approaching 50 degrees. Although it is still within a range that humans can bear, if we continue to move forward, it will soon reach 60, or even 80 degrees or even 100 degrees, which can boil water.
When we arrived here, there were many people around digging fireproof isolation belts with tools in their hands. Everyone covered their mouths and noses with towels soaked in water while digging. From time to time, someone would carry a fireproof isolation belt with them. Pour the water from the water bag onto your face and body, using this method to protect your body from being scalded and to maintain breathing at such a temperature. The high is gently and continuously stimulating The thick smoke in people's mouth and respiratory system is getting more and more serious. Some people have begun to feel dizzy and even vomit. Some people even staggered and fell to the ground. People around them hurriedly stepped forward to save the unconscious person. People hurriedly carried him away, and in this case he fainted on the ground. If no one took care of him, the final result would be either being burned to death by the incoming fire or suffocating.
"No way! The smoke is getting bigger and bigger. Evacuate! Evacuate quickly! Prepare the second fire line!!!" Some young townspeople noticed the approaching fire and shouted, reminding everyone to evacuate as soon as possible.
Hearing the shouts, everyone hurriedly grabbed the tools in their hands and evacuated. Some people took a look around and brought all available things with them to reduce losses as much as possible. In this case, any items Defects are all factors that lead to the fire being unable to be controlled.
At this moment, compared with the large flow of people who are constantly retreating, the Zongheng convoy running straight towards the area where the fire is most intense is like a lone sail going upstream, and it looks very eye-catching.
We drove forward for less than two kilometers. At this time, it was shown that the temperature outside the car had reached nearly 80 degrees. This temperature can already warm an egg. When we arrived here, we only relied on human beings. My own physical strength is beyond reach. Even if I am wearing a powered mecha, an ordinary powered mecha cannot withstand the continuous high temperature here. Going forward, the temperature gets higher. Even when it is tens of meters closer to the fire scene, it can reach as high as The hot air waves of hundreds of degrees can directly scorch a person. Of course, unless it is a super powerful mecha like the golden mecha that can even enter deep water, naturally there will be no such worries, but a golden mecha is It's so hard to find. Ma Tao and the others now only have one part of the entire set of golden mechas, the golden crown. So far, he has not seen anyone wearing a complete set of golden mechas.

, and some birds. All the animals have their mouths wide open and their eyes are staring. The protruding eyeballs are gray and white that have lost the luster of life. It seems that they are still desperately trying to breathe a fresh breath when they are dying. air.
"Brother Tao, the tank has radio channel access." Xiao Jinzi noticed a request for radio access flashing on the screen of his tank. This was someone who wanted to invite his side to respond through the vehicle's radio.
Generally speaking, car radio channels are just a decoration in most cases. Because of the emergence of communication watches, everyone is still accustomed to using communication watches for daily communication. The biggest drawback of car radios is its confidentiality. Since Noah launched his great destruction, few people have used the radio channel, because it is easy for Noah to capture and crack it. Even the encrypted radio channel only makes Noah waste a little more time. , different from the communication watch, the communication watch uses a network similar to the independent connection of multiple devices, which is somewhat similar to a local area network, but it is also wireless. The advantage is that this network does not go through If allowed, set up a few devices, that's just a few. It's not like radio channels, which are being monitored at any time without knowing it.
"Everyone, connect to the radio channel." After Xiao Jinzi's reminder, Ma Tao noticed the radio application information that had been flashing on the screen.
After hesitating for less than two seconds, he chose to connect and at the same time notified everyone to enter together. Without Ma Tao's reminder, someone had already entered the radio channel first.
When Gao Han found out that someone had activated the radio channel, he connected it without hesitation. There is no doubt that the radio channel will be monitored by Noah. This is common knowledge. Almost everyone who owns a tank knows it. I believe no one will do it. This is an extremely low-level mistake, but the radio channel still has its irreplaceable advantage, that is, convenience. You only need to enter the channel to speak freely. At this time, someone has established a radio channel. Naturally, they hope that in this situation, Establish connections and facilitate communication.
"Hi! Brother! Welcome to the Fiery Purgatory. Have you brought enough water? Be careful of turning into a roast chicken." As soon as he entered the radio channel, Ma Tao heard a male voice with a Western meaning and a bit of arrogance.
"Even if it turns into a roast chicken, I believe you must be more mature than me." Ma Tao picked up the phone that had been covered with dust from not being used for a long time, blew the dust off it, and pressed the phone for a moment. He replied rudely.
Although Ma Tao didn't know who was speaking to him, at this time, no matter who he was, he couldn't lose his momentum. Fortunately, he was the captain.
"Then you will be disappointed, I will never become a roast chicken." On the other end of the radio, the man who just spoke laughed and said.
"Garcia, watch the fire over there. If you can't watch it, I'll skin you, this war dog." Another oppressive voice came from the radio channel. After reprimanding Garcia, that voice He paused for a moment before continuing: "I established the radio channel. Let me introduce you to each other. I am the captain of the Hurricane Team, Vallet. Don't mind. The person who just spoke is my team member Garcia, nicknamed War Wild Dog. And Angel Nicole and Stormy Bear Jones”
Ma Tao frowned and thought for a moment. He had never heard of the name of the Hurricane Team, but judging from the names of these people, they should all be Westerners. It seemed that they were from different places and he and others did not recognize him. It was normal, so he said: "Zongheng Team, Ma Tao, members Jin Bao, Gao Han, Su Lanyu and Su Lanxi, there are five people in total, no nicknames."
Ma Tao didn't include his sister, which was a secret. After all, in terms of the number of chariots, it is normal for five chariots to have five drivers. Besides, strictly speaking, my sister does not belong to the human race. It can't be regarded as a member of my own team. I missed my sister. This is not a deliberate concealment.
"Ma Tao, I didn't expect us to meet here again." Ma Tao's seemingly familiar voice suddenly came from the radio channel.
"Ken, is it you? Are Axel and Reina okay?" After thinking for a while, Ma Tao finally remembered who the voice belonged to. Ken, the man who impressed Ma Tao deeply when they first met. ,besides
The technician named Axel next to him has mechanical maintenance skills that are not inferior to Xiao Jinzi. The woman named Reina, although she has never spoken and does not know the details, but that woman’s fighting ability is definitely very powerful. I think From the first meeting to now, these people's tanks have become more and more powerful. When I think about Ken and the others, they became gold hunters earlier than me. From this point of view, Ken's strength is stronger than mine. excellent.
"Yeah, goodbye Solu, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. You in Solu City that day are really memorable." Holding the communicator in his hand, looking at the flaming world outside, Ken crossed his legs. Sitting in this super powerful chariot designed by himself that he had just obtained from the Bart Research Institute at the end of Death Cross not long ago, Ken stared at the burning world with deep eyes, as if the flames surrounding the chariot were all. Unable to block his sight, he wanted to see through everything.
"Vallet, the fire on my side is on the rise. I can't help it. I'm downwind and the fire can't be controlled. My ammunition is exhausted. I need to teleport back." A woman's words came from the radio channel , Ma Tao noticed that the radio channel showed that the woman's nickname for herself was "Free Bird". I guess this should be the nickname that the woman had changed for herself.
"My ammunition has also been exhausted and I need to return. This method of using the shock wave generated by the powerful explosion of ammunition to extinguish the fire is effective, but it consumes too much ammunition." At the same time, a man named "Wanderer" also posted After realizing his attitude, he quit the radio channel directly.
Ma Tao did a rough check and found that there were nearly 30 people in the radio channel at the moment. In other words, there were at least 30 people online, excluding the dozen or so people from his three teams, Vallet and Ken. There are at least a dozen independent bounty hunters or warriors here. Of course, it is not ruled out that some teams do not identify themselves. However, those who can directly identify themselves on the radio are not afraid of being Noah's monitoring corner, and everyone knows that no one will tell the real secret information through public channels such as radio channels.
"Okay, we'll talk about renewal later. First, think of a way to extinguish the fire in front of you. If you run out of ammunition, you can teleport. Are you coming back? I won't force you. That Ma Tao, right? I was worried. Well, your joining just solved the fire on the right side, so the right side is left to you, any questions?" Vallett interrupted what everyone was about to say and started to assign tasks directly, although there were questions in his words. Ma Tao, but in fact Valette has directly decided on Ma Tao
task.
"No problem," Ma Tao responded over the radio. He didn't want to make a fuss about such a trivial matter. It was pointless. Besides, he and others were here just to put out the fire. It doesn't matter where the fire is put out. After all, this seemingly threatening situation The highly dangerous wildfires did not threaten their safety with the chariot. Moreover, with such a person who likes to worry, Ma Taole was so relaxed. From now on, he only needs to maintain his own side of the problems, and all the problems The problems are no longer problems.
The method adopted by Vallet to extinguish the fire is very simple, which is to use ammunition to extinguish the fire piece by piece, and use artillery shells to blast out a fire isolation zone formed by craters. This method is very effective, but you must pay attention to the impact point of the ammunition and have a good grasp of the accuracy of the shells. Extremely strict control requirements, once the impact point of the artillery shell deviates, it is likely to directly hit the fire source, thereby causing a greater fire intensity, which is counterproductive.
In the current situation, there is really no better way to deal with the speed and intensity of this mountain fire. There is no other way. The five chariots of the crowd are separated by a distance of more than 20 meters, forming a line. The blockade was nearly 100 meters long, but even so, they still seemed too small in the face of the endless wildfire trend.
The flames of the 175 cannon were connected with the rumbling sound of artillery, and violent explosions occurred one after another. The shock wave caused by the explosion of the cannonballs in the fire field directly ravaged the surroundings with a destructive force, drying the people who were already baked by the flames. The land stirred up.
Everyone was cooperating with each other, but soon, the crater that had just been blasted by the shell was covered with flames again within a short time.
"No, the fire is too strong. This method is no longer possible."
It doesn’t work." In just a moment, Xiao Jinzi had already discovered that the method of relying on Vallette was obviously no longer working. The isolation zone blasted by artillery could not catch up at all. The speed of the flames raging, if it continues like this, the flames will surround it from both sides, and then completely surround the convoy in a sea of fire.
"We must retreat and find a way to continue building fire barriers," someone suggested on the radio channel.
"Wake up, we have built two isolation zones, and my magazine is almost exhausted. You have also seen the effect. If you ask me, this fire is out of control, and I want to retreat. The surface of my tank can now be used for barbecue." On the radio channel, someone else announced that he had withdrawn from this meaningless fire-fighting operation.
Ma Tao was about to make a symbolic statement to persuade him to stay, but he felt a slight vibration on his communication watch. This was someone calling him. When he lowered his head, he saw that the communication person on the display was Qian Santai. Ma Tao did not hesitate. , put back the radio communicator he was holding, and turned on the communication watch.
"Ma Tao! Can you hear me? Go back to the village quickly, there is trouble here!!" As soon as the connection was connected, Qian Santai's very anxious words came from the communication watch, which made Ma Taoru As if struck by lightning, I suddenly panicked. Something happened in the village? What could make Qian Santai so panicked? You know, all Ma Tao's worries can be said to be in Maduo, and Maduo village can also be regarded as their hometown now. If something happens to the village, it will be the same as There was a fire in the backyard, but then I thought about it. Judging from the current Ma Duo, whether it is defensive power or combat power, not to mention the manpower deployed there by Qian Santai and the many strong defenses built in the later period, just leaving it alone The mosquitoes and jeeps that came down did not have to worry about any danger when dealing with the garbage monsters around the village. Therefore, what made Qian Santai anxious was definitely a major event that even he could not control, so that would be troublesome.
"Old Qian, what happened? I'm Ma Tao, don't worry, tell me, let's find a solution together." After calming down his emotions, his mind has skipped countless possible thoughts, including Nuo Ma Tao, who had already considered launching an attack on Ma Duo, tried his best to sound calm, but his words still contained a hint of worry.
There is no way, Ma Tao is a human being after all, and as a human being he will have emotions, and emotions are the least likely to be suppressed.
"Old Qian, did Noah send monsters to attack the village?" Xiao Jinzi obviously thought of the same question as Ma Tao, but this kid was more impatient and asked first.
"No, no, you are overthinking. Noah has not launched an attack on the village yet, no! I am not talking about something big happening in the village, but something big happening outside the village. I have already mobilized all the villagers to leave the village." Qian Santai's reply on the communication watch not only sounded anxious this time, but even had a sense of urgency.
Something big happened outside the village? Still leaving the village? How is this going?
Ma Tao was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the so-called "something happened outside the village" meant. Not only him, but everyone who answered the communication watch at this moment was confused and couldn't understand what Qian Santai was doing. Talking about something.
"Oops! Let's put it this way." Qian Santai on the other end of the communication watch didn't know how to explain it. The more anxious he became, the more unclear he was. He took two deep breaths and then said: "You guys are in the big forest to the west of the village." You know, that forest is on fire! Moreover, the fire is not small. Now the thick smoke is almost covering the sky. I have mobilized all the villagers to come out to put out the mountain fire. I have mobilized all armed garrison forces to ensure the safety of the villagers. , but, for some reason, the fire in the west seems to be uncontrollable. If it is allowed to continue burning, the entire western mountains will be burned."
