Chapter 38: Steam
I walked all the way to the shore, but saw that the lake was sparkling and calm, and there was no sign of anyone or a boat entering the water, which meant that the last kid of the crowbar party must still be on this small island less than the size of two football fields, and it was only a matter of time before he was found.
I was about to turn back and do a carpet search of the woods, when suddenly, a strange and dangerous feeling hit me without warning, and the hairs all over my body stood up, and instinct drove me to the side without hesitation.
This was thanks to the keen animal instincts that the biological armor and genetic ensemble had given me, for almost at the same time as I jumped out, a black-painted, non-reflective crossbow bolt burst out of the shadows of the trees, snapping into my back with a slight screech and great force!
I struggled in pain when I fell to the ground, opening my mouth wide to scream, but I couldn't make a sound; my feet kicked the dirt on the ground in vain, but I couldn't relieve the pain and suffocation feeling of ** at all; my eyes showed deep anger and unwillingness, but it was still irrepressibly transformed into fear and despair......
My struggle slowed down, my eyes began to roll up, my pupils began to dilate, and eventually I lost my breath......
"Hmph, are you finally dead?" A figure suddenly stood up behind the hillock, with an emaciated figure and a delicate face, looking like a student who had not yet graduated, and what was incompatible with him was that he was wearing tactical camouflage, with night vision goggles on his face, and a huge crossbow in his hand, looking like he was going to fight a guerrilla war in the jungle.
Zero came over and kicked me twice, making sure that I was really dead, so he proudly patted the giant crossbow in his hand and said to himself: "This thing is really powerful, it can almost catch up with a rifle when shooting at close range, and even if it misses the vital point, it ......!"
He couldn't say the next words, because I, who was supposed to be dead on the ground, suddenly jumped up and punched him in the chest, and in a panic, Zero had to set up the crossbow arrow in his hand to resist, and with a bang, the crossbow arrow was smashed into parts by me, and the kid also took the opportunity to roll and crawl away.
"You!" Zero, who had just gotten up from the ground, said with surprise in his tone, "You're not dead?"
I just smiled and didn't bother to answer, although the crossbow arrow was nailed to my back, but the biological armor that Chen Sanshan spent more than ten years of hard work to create would not even be as good as a body armor, plus when I had a premonition that there was danger, I had subconsciously condensed an extra layer of carapace protection on my back, so that arrow only pierced the clothes and the turtle shell that had just condensed on my back, and I myself was unharmed, as for why I kicked my legs and rolled my eyes just now, isn't this to lure out my grandson who didn't know where to hide and shoot dark arrows with a black gun at me!?
The black armor came out of my body, wrapping around my body, and the hideous bone spurs on my right arm formed a gauntlet, slowly spreading to my elbows, which was a sign of complete combat status, and what followed would be a tragic one-sided battle, and I couldn't wait to beat the pretty face of this kid in front of me.
Although most of his face was covered by night vision goggles, he could still see that Zero was frightened by the scene in front of him, and shouted at me while retreating: "It's you again! What do you want! I've fled from Europe to China, and you still don't let me go?"
My eyes rolled, but on the surface I didn't move, I just replied vaguely: "How could I let you go." ”
"I see! You are the dogs of the rotten government machine!" Zero ripped off the night vision goggles and yelled at me with his neck crossed: "We, the Social Endeavor Party, are fighting to establish a new social order that is efficient and orderly, and to eliminate the useless parasites attached to society! This is for the benefit of all mankind! And you want to exterminate us!"
I don't care about shrugging my shoulders, it seems that this kid is really the culprit who instigated Liu Lun and others to commit anti-social crimes, listen to his meaning, it should be after Europe was destroyed before he traveled to Asia for development, and from his reaction after seeing this kind of black technology on me, it should be the European Research Institute that destroyed their European foundation, as for the reason, needless to say, the idea of the perverted scientist should be roughly the same, it is estimated that these unlucky children happened to be written into the procurement list of the European Research Institute... …
"Woo~!" A sound similar to a pressure cooker deflating came from nowhere, causing me to subconsciously look around, and Zero, who had just righteously accused me of persecuting revolutionary fighters, shrank his head in fear, as if he had encountered something terrible, and said to himself while trembling: "Here she is! She is still here! That steam demon! Since the two brothers of the Sun family were injured by the steam explosion, I knew that she was coming! Sure enough, even if I hid here, I couldn't get rid of her!" It turns out that this kid didn't run to the island to be a savage to hide from us.
Wu ...... Wu ......!" The not-so-small voice attracted Li Mo too, he had already unfolded all the armor on his body like me, leaving only a V-shaped observation hole with blue light at the place of his eyes, looking like a future soldier.
Before I could reply, the sound of the buzz was getting closer and closer, and with the night vision enhanced by the biological armor, I could clearly see the thick steam rising from the water in the distance, and a figure in a high-brimmed top hat and a leather trench coat carried a cannon barrel on his shoulder, and the soles of his shoes were spewing steam, rushing towards us as if he were walking on the ground.
She was moving very fast on the water, and in an instant she came to us, and a violent jet of steam pushed her high and fell steadily in front of me, and when I looked closely, I found that this girl was not tall and slightly thin, but she could tell that the exaggerated size of the metal barrel was carried in her hand with one hand, and this girl was very difficult to mess with.
The most striking thing is the huge machine behind her, which runs in a regular manner, with dozens of connecting rods and cylinders embedded in it, and several thick pipes sticking out of the machine, connected to the end of her leather trench coat and gun barrel, and the air release valve also opens itself from time to time to vent the steam...... She had a steam engine on her back!
Seeing people's sassy and heroic appearance, Li Mo and I couldn't help but feel ashamed, you look at other people's equipment, how can they be so stylish, and then look at ours, just the pitiful two tights and head coverings, which are clearly the most unpopular dresses in the dynamic Superman special effects movie, and the purpose of the debut is to let the protagonist get off the stage with three punches and two feet......
This girl has windproof goggles on her face, so we can't really see her face, but it can be seen that she doesn't treat the two of us very well, and in the face of her colleagues at the Institute of Asian Studies, this chick raised the cannon barrel without hesitation: "Get out of the way!"
