It took 12 minutes from the sudden loss of contact between Samuel's cruiser and the participating teams, to the time they established a reinforced signal channel to resist the signal barrier of the "intelligent body", relayed key information to the participating teams, and tracked down the target location of the team members.

The cruiser arrived at the target position of the participating teams, and it took only six minutes at most.

The eighteen minutes before and after that would normally be a snap of a finger, but for the six teams in the arena at this time, it may be the most difficult eighteen minutes in their lives.

The "sapient body" born in Monlière has lived on this strange planet for more than half a month, has countless minions, and is born with the ability to block signals.

It took advantage of these advantages and soon brought much of Monlière under its control, seemingly "brightly promising" but in fact isolated.

After the cruiser dropped the Zerg and chips, it patrolled at high altitude, and the "intelligent body" has been deliberately hiding its abilities, just for fear of being discovered by the cruiser.

It's been the eleventh day since these medium-sized mecha teams of four people landed in Monlière, and judging from their movements, they were obviously collecting chips from the cruiser in advance - the "intelligent body" suddenly realized that this was not a simple planet!

Humans are engaged in some kind of "activity" here, so they put the Zerg and let them develop.

In other words, once the activity is over, there will be no hidden danger of these zergs on the planet Monlière.

Just as the Zerg continue to invade α galaxy through the gate of the distant star field, human beings will not have any mercy towards the Zerg, and the two sides have been fighting for thousands of years!

Since the final outcome must be to be wiped out, the "intelligent body" has decided to fulfill its fate - a large warship that cannot fight against humans, then deal with these mecha teams on Monlière, so that the peace and stability that humans have maintained with great difficulty will be clouded with the haze of death!

On the first day of the mecha team's landing, two teams immediately began to "provoke" the small Zerg in the hive, but in the end they didn't fight, and it seemed that they just wanted to lead the bug tide in a specific direction.

When the cruiser quickly arrives to rescue a certain mech team trapped by the insect tide, the "intelligent body" realizes that although the cruiser does not provide any additional supplies to the mech team, their connection is close.

If it doesn't attack strategically, it will soon be discovered by the cruiser, and not only will it not kill these humans piloting mechs, but it will also cause destruction for its race.

So it took a long time to plan, and finally laid out this game.

The two teams continued to "provoke" the hive, but the "intelligent body" did not let them get their wish, either sending a small number of Zerg to attack tentatively, or pretending to lose their target at a critical time and stop the pursuit.

In this way, these mech teams no longer had to call for help to the cruiser, but instead spent the first week "without danger".

However, in this "thrilling and undangered" process, the insect tide continues to consume the strength of these mecha teams, and in the absence of material replenishment, the actions of the mecha teams are obviously affected and they are beginning to fatigue.

And the accurate estimate of the "intelligent body" is hardly much different from the truth.

In addition to Kyle's team, which has Allen's system map, has obtained useful materials in several self-replenishments, and only Tang Haichao's team, because the children of the Tang family have trained in the harsh environment of fighting against the Zerg since they were children, and they also have more understanding of the environment of the fifth star area, and they have also received some supplies.

The other participating teams have long been living a life of "frugality" due to lack of materials.

The "intelligent body" does not know how long the human activity in Monrier will last, but the various mecha teams have begun to try to approach the hive under such a harsh situation, apparently collecting almost all the chips outside, so they have to get close to the danger.

Therefore, it judged that this activity should be nearing the end, and if it doesn't make a move, there may be no chance!

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Kyle: The medium-sized Zerg in front of them are two completely different individuals.

One of them is nearly 40 meters tall and wears shell-like armor, which is huge and heavy.

The scythe-like part of its head is extremely hard and sharp, and its power can even penetrate the protective walls of the mech! There are also three pairs of forelimbs on the chest, and the claws at the top are shining!

The other is more reptile, on all fours, not very tall, but frighteningly long. It is extremely agile, with bone spurs all over its body, and a long tail behind it that is like a deadly weapon that can crush the hardest rocks with a single sweep!

What's even more terrifying is that there is a natural electromagnetic pulse emitter hidden in the bulge of its head, which can disable the electromagnetic weapon on the mech for a certain period of time - which means that if you want to defeat it, you can only fight it in close combat!

Fortunately, the organizing committee of the Seven Schools United Championship had already announced the information of these medium-sized zergs in advance, and each team had undergone in-depth research, and in the face of two powerful enemies, they quickly adjusted their combat plans!

Kyle first aimed Asassol's cannon at the Scythe Zerg, and the charged ion particles in the cannonball pierced its armor, quickly burning its internal tissues, causing it to take a direct hit!

The Scythe Zerg has a powerful frontal attack, but there are few lethal weapons behind it except for armor, and only Philos's speed-type mech has this opportunity to quickly circle its rear and form a front and rear formation with Kyle's Athassor.

Hold back Kyle's frontal attack, and let the nimble Philos take the opportunity to find the weakness of the Scythe Zerg - the seam of the neck armor!

So when Samu's cruiser arrived at their position, the Scythe Zerg had already been pierced through the neck by Philos's wrist blade, and the nerve center that controlled the tissues of the whole body was destroyed and died!

At this distance, communication was already possible, but the cruisers didn't immediately come to their aid, as Kyle didn't send any distress signals - the fight was clearly still within their reach.

Therefore, the cruiser only stopped in the air not far away, silently guarding the team members who were playing the game.

Kill a medium-sized Zerg and make the shape on the field change immediately! Kyle and Philos join Arthur and Heller's team against the remaining long-tailed Zerg.

Under the constant pulse attack, their electromagnetic weapons will be ineffective if they get close to it, so Kyle also abandons the cannon and unfolds his wrist blade to deal with the terrifying armor tail of the long-tailed Zerg with Arthur.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After the battle, the captain of the cruiser sent a communication request to Kyle in admiration from the bottom of his heart.

"In order to ensure the safety of everyone, the organizing committee decided to take all the participating teams back to the main ship and the army will carry out a comprehensive clean-up of Monlière." The captain explains the situation to Kyle.

"What about the competition? Has it been terminated? How are the results calculated? ”

"Regarding the competition, we will not discuss it further until the participating teams return to the main ship."

……

When Kyle boarded the main ship, they were immediately taken to the rest area, where they were thoroughly examined by a special doctor, and even a psychiatrist sent by the church gave them psychological counseling.

"I heard that it was Carl's team, they encountered a wave of worms with corrosive glands, and when the cruiser arrived, their captain abandoned the two teammates, and the mechs that were left behind had been destroyed to the point that they could not move at all, so the two pilots had a nervous breakdown."

Even Captain Carter, who tried to escape, did not escape the insect tide, and encountered the same predicament as his poor teammates several miles away, except that he and the other team members were not so badly injured by the mech.

And although they were taken away by the captain and another team member, the mecha division and pharmacist who were obviously weaker in psychological tolerance than the mecha warriors stayed in the treatment room after returning to the main ship, and could not come out at all.

At that time, the six teams in the Monlière arena, except for Kyle, they and Tang Haichao's team encountered two medium-sized zergs, and the team of the Federation and Samuel Royal Academy Otis was attacked by a medium-sized zerg each.

Originally, Carter's team did not encounter a medium-sized Zerg, and it seemed that they should be the luckiest, but the psychological trauma suffered by their team members was the most severe.

The accompanying psychiatrist estimated that this trauma would be with the wounded for the rest of their lives - their mecha career could only end there.

It was determined that except for Carter's team members, who must be sent back to Ebubi for treatment immediately, and although the other teams had minor injuries, there was no serious problem, and the organizing committee began to call the captains of each team for an emergency meeting.

"At present, the organizing committee has given two plans."

Kyle came back and discussed with everyone, "One of the options is to terminate the competition and rank the results according to the current instant results; The other option is to wait for Monlière's cleanup to be completed and the game to continue. ”

They had 9 valid chips in the previous match, and in the battle that just ended, they found a valid chip on each of the two medium-sized zergs, which means that if they were based on the instant score, they could get 110 points.

"According to the statistics of the organizing committee, there are still 18 valid chips on the field in Montlière that have not been found by the participating teams."

After a preliminary estimate, Kyle and the others felt that if they had followed the first option, they might have a better chance of winning, but the final choice of the plan would have to be voted on by all teams.

If other teams don't have enough effective chips in their hands, they will most likely choose the latter option - after all, as long as the game continues, there is a chance to turn the tables!

"Actually, even if we decide to use the second option, we will have a good chance of winning!"

Although they have been tired by the insect tide during this time, due to the sufficient supply of Allen's elixir, their mental power has always been able to maintain a good level, even if they encounter two medium-sized zergs, they have finally solved it smoothly.

In contrast, other teams may not be so lucky.

At least Kyle met their captain at the meeting today, and even Tang Haichao and Chen Xu were a little tired.

"For the sake of fairness, if everyone chooses the second option in the end, the organizing committee will no longer provide excess supplies to all teams, that is, how to get on the main ship now, and how to return to the arena in the future."

When Monlière was purged, everyone's state could be adjusted, and their mental strength could be restored, but there was no way to replenish the supplies.

Then, also back to the field, although there were no Zerg in Monlière at that time, the environment and conditions were still harsh, and the position of the effective chip was still uncertain, so naturally the team with less consumption could maintain a better state in the next game!

"It's already here, whoever takes this last chance will win!"
