The Forgotten Cemetery, in legend, is a place so desolate that it can be haunted. Although I had been prepared, the moment I saw it, there was silence in the cabin, and I couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.

There was no end in sight to the wreckage of mechas, piled up in a mountain, with severed limbs and stumps mixed in it, and in the gap between piles of "garbage" dozens of meters high, bare yellow earth could be seen. Ever since it was contaminated by nuclear bombs and the venom of behemoths, it has become a barbaric land.

Suddenly, Iloh pointed to a place below, very excited, "That-that body, it's the 'godfather'! Then it was gone, and I thought it was sent to serve in another base, but it turned out - how - was it thrown here?"

"The Godfather" is the name of a blue mech. It was one of the first mechs to be built, and it was with these mechs that humans held back the behemoths, allowing them to have time to breathe and build dungeons that allowed the survivors to retreat underground.

As one of the mecha that has survived the longest and experienced the most battles, the "Godfather" is almost a legend of Asher. This group of young people, including Yiluo Chen Yan and others, grew up listening to their combat deeds.

Later, some of the same batch of mechs were completely damaged in the war, some were repaired and continued to be used, and some disappeared.

I didn't expect the "godfather" to appear here. How long has it been lying here?

The answer to Iroh was still silent. Some kind of sadness is spreading, and they don't even want to look down, can those severed limbs also belong to some bloody mecha?

"Because of survival," Lance slowly looked over one by one and whispered firmly, "Asher needs to survive. There is no extra space for mechs that cannot participate in the battle, and new mechs appear, and there is no extra energy to maintain unusable mechs. ”

So throw it away. It's like dealing with expired garbage. Chen Yan frowned, although this was true, but it sounded particularly cruel.

"I think the most fundamental reason is that we're growing too slowly. ”

Everyone else looked at her, some with puzzled expressions. Lance threw her an approving look, "That's right. Because we didn't have the ability to expand the area of Ashur's dungeon, and we didn't have more advanced technology to update the old mechs, they were discarded. If any of these could have been done, the 'godfather' would not have been here. ”

Chen Yan said: "Ya Xiu has been exhausted in recent years, devoting all his abilities to the research and development of mechas, only thinking about how to counter violence with violence, and never thinking about whether he can drive away the giant beast without blood. ”

Asher's strategic direction is like a blindfolded bull, just rushing forward, never wondering if the direction is right.

"Sit tight!" said Mina, who was operating the mech, suddenly, "There's a flying beast, and I'm trying to dodge it." Get ready, everybody. ”

"Chen Yan", Lance looked at her with encouragement. Chen Yan nodded, calmly took out the brainwave generator, and gave instructions according to the brainwave of the giant beast collected before, and pressed a few keys on it with her fingers, and then she looked nervously at the flying giant beast outside the window.

The people in the cabin seemed to have turned into a team of meerkats, all looking out with their heads eager.

In a matter of seconds, they were surprised to see that the beast had turned away from the aircraft.

"Yay!" Chen Yan couldn't help but clench his fists. Looking at Lance with the curvature of the corners of his mouth, the two looked at each other and smiled.

The rest of the cabin was also excited. This means that the name Behemoth will be crossed out of their list of enemies in the future.

After that, the landing was exceptionally smooth, Chen Yan expelled the dozen or so giant beasts around here one by one through the brainwave generator, and after a while, there was no sound here except for the howling wind.

"Hey rookie, do you—can you do magic?" Adolf stammered to everyone's thoughts.

"It's so stupid", Mina hit him, "what kind of magic, it's clearly that one is working". She tapped the brainwave generator with her chin.

"What? huh?" Adolf sluggishly contacted the black box that Chen Yan was holding, "Is it? Oh, it's unbelievable!"

Everyone in the cabin looked at this little thing, and Chen Yan suddenly felt like he had touched a hot potato that had just come out of the pot in his hand, and he wanted to throw it away and hide it deeper.

"Everyone today has to keep this a secret. Lance swept through everyone, "Out of protection for Chen Yan, Asher did not announce who developed the brainwave generator project. Once her identity is revealed, it will bring coveting and hunting by the Red Brigades. Therefore, you must keep your mouth shut. If someone asks, it is still the explanation given by the Academy of Sciences, that the brainwave generator was made with the power of the Academy of Sciences as a whole. Got it?"

Everyone nodded, "Yes", "Don't worry, boss". Only the Lance team went on a mission today, so these people are trustworthy, which is why Lance asked Chen Yan to use her brainwave generator.

According to the original plan, due to the large number of giant beasts around, it was not suitable to fight head-on, so they tried to evacuate quietly without alarming the giant beasts. However, given the sound of the aircraft, this is basically not possible.

The special forces realized in hindsight that they could really retreat without a war. It's like you're ready to fight a giant beast, and now suddenly a pie falls from the sky. Their expressions couldn't hide their excitement, because more importantly, the battle against the behemoth might disappear from now on.

The aircraft slowly landed in an inconspicuous corner of the north-southwest of the Forgotten Graveyard, surrounded by the wreckage of the mecha on all sides, and there was only a few dozen square meters of space, just enough to land a flying machine.

After landing, the hatch was not opened, and it was completely indiscernible from the outside that a flying machine had landed here. But a skateboard in the middle of the cabin was opened, facing the mouth of the black hole that had opened at some point on the ground below.

They all mounted the zipline and jumped down one by one. Although he had undergone physical training, it was the first time for Chen Yan to see such a bottomless entrance. Knowing that it wasn't much tall underneath, she still held her breath unconsciously.

Mei Na had already noticed her side and was about to walk over, saying that she could take her down, but Yu Guang saw their leader walking towards Chen Yan, so she immediately jumped down in front of Chen Yan.

Chen Yan: ...... She was about to get Mina to take herself down, when she saw her jump in front of her in a hurry, without even giving her a look. Could it be that she drank too much water and was in a hurry to go to the toilet?

"I'll take you down," Colonel Lance came up behind her at some point and held out his hand to her, "but it looks deep, but it's actually the reason why there's no light." Don't be afraid. ”

"Well," Chen Yan nodded, putting his hand into Lance's palm, "I know, it's okay, I promise it'll be fine next time." Lance's palm was warm and dry, and the slight apprehension in Chen Yan's heart magically disappeared.

Lance took her hand and pulled her into his arms. Chen Yan's height can only be regarded as average among women, and with her thin body, she is almost completely trapped in Lance's arms.

Feeling Lance's body temperature, Chen Yan's brain exploded into a cloud of fireworks, and all neurons stopped transmitting. At that moment, she couldn't remember where she was, or what she had said or done.

"It's here. Lance's voice seemed to come from a distance, and Chen Yan realized that there was solid ground under his feet. Although she remembered the kiss, it was only remembered, and the specific feelings were blurred by the alcohol. Although intellectually she knew that her relationship with Lance had changed because of that kiss, the feeling had always lagged.

Until that hug just now.

Chen Yan spit on himself a little - it is really incomprehensible that such a person who has no feelings for a kiss actually has feelings for a hug.

They were the last two people to come down, and at this moment, Chen Yan finally saw the whole picture under the entrance of the cave. In order to maintain concealment, the base here does not build an entrance that can be opened and closed like other bases, but opens a small passage directly down from the ground, and the entire base is underground.

Later, piles of wreckage naturally formed on the ground outside the entrance, and this place was even more hidden.

The commander of this base was Lieutenant Colonel McCann, a seemingly serious and capable soldier who had been waiting here for the arrival of Lance's team. Seeing that everyone was due, Lieutenant Colonel McCann shook hands with Lance and nodded to everyone, "You also know the general situation, go here, talk as you go." ”

The road leading to the site is also made up of tunnels, illuminated with artificial light. There was only the sound of a few of them walking through the entire tunnel, and there would be echoes if they spoke loudly.

"The main data researched over the years have been sorted out and stored in the main control computer, with a total capacity of 50 million T. Now that the Red Brigades have set their sights on this place, we don't have any memory in mind, so we ask the headquarters to send a suitable person to carry these materials - here, please follow up, some of the passages here are traps and do not lead anywhere. ”

As he spoke, he had already arrived in the main control computer room, Lance nodded, and said to Lieutenant Colonel McCann: "We will do the data transfer, you bring other things to take with you, and log in to the aircraft." And then this place will be destroyed. ”

Lieutenant Colonel McCann immediately ordered, "The equipment to be taken is ready—wait, who is this?"

He was referring to Chen Yan. Chen Yan's appearance really doesn't look like a "core" figure, and he is especially conspicuous in a group of special forces - he looks particularly weak. Even Mina, who is a woman, looks much stronger than her.

As soon as Chen Yan arrived here, he picked up the terminal and began to test the main control computer, roughly looking at the total amount of data and the time it took to connect the terminal to predict the need for transmission. Before he could say hello to Captain McCann.
