Chapter 70: The Withered Claws of Death

Death always comes when you are unprepared.

Facing the slowly operating automatic defense laser concentrating weapon station on the roof of the Golden Sands Hotel, Meng Zheng suddenly felt a kind of loneliness. Once again, he had to face the Grim Reaper, the same land-based attack weapon as the "Hundred Day Ghost". Once the beam of death is shot, no one can escape.

Meng Strike was all too familiar with this directed energy weapon, but his instincts made him feel that something was wrong with this system, unlike the laser shaped turret he remembered, to be exact, it was spinning a little too fast. Shaped laser weapons require a very stable working platform, and precision equipment also needs to be handled carefully. Add to that the calibration, tracking, and locking of laser weapons all take longer.

However, Meng Strike felt that the turret was spinning too fast, not like a laser weapon, but more like a fully automatic anti-aircraft gun in camouflage.

He wanted to go over and see what was going on, but he hesitated.

Is it fear? Meng Ji questioned himself in his heart.

No! I am not afraid of death, let alone this little laser cannon.

But the slowly rotating turret and the concentrating laser canister like an astronomical telescope reminded me of the power of the "Centennial Ghost". Meng Ji originally planned to find the rest of the Seven Aces of the First Wu Dynasty to deal with the Hundred Day Ghost together and complete this fateful battle. But he only knew that Lu Tong was dead, had no companions, and was not ready to fight.

Now, I'm still alone......

The continuous fatigue and rushing, coupled with the surging memories of the past, were a little blurry in front of the attack, and the world became chaotic.

The engine noise in my ears is gone, the vibration of the parts is gone, and the wind is gradually attenuating.

"Big brother! Big brother! Jin Jiangji shouted from behind.

"Huh?" Meng Meng suddenly came back to his senses, "What's wrong?" ”

"You were distracted just now," Jin Jiangji laughed, she didn't realize the danger that was already in front of her, if it weren't for the fact that her body was fixed by a seat belt, she would have run behind Meng Zheng and hugged his neck to celebrate, "We have won!" Hooray......"

Meng Zheng shook his head and smiled, perhaps, he was no longer alone. But where does this cold loneliness come from? He now felt like a soap bubble in his heart, bright on the outside, empty on the inside, and ready to burst at any moment.

He glanced back at Jin Jiangji.

The little princess also looked at him: "Huh? What's wrong? Don't worry, I'll forgive you a long time ago. Ha ha. When she was happy, she stomped her feet in the same way.

Meng Zhu didn't say anything, he had too many words in his heart. He just turned around, held the joystick with both hands, and thought to himself: the soap bubble that could burst at any time was still rising, at least for now. Although he did not find his comrades-in-arms of the Seven Aces of the First Sino-Japanese War, he was not alone.

"Jin Jiangji!" Meng Zhu suddenly turned his head and looked at her. Only then did he realize that he had never looked at the eyes of the little princess, a pair of big eyes that were bright and watery, full of innocent immaturity and clear purity, these were the eyes of a girl.

"Uh, huh?" Jin Jiangji was a little surprised when she was screamed. She stuck out her tongue slightly, thinking that she had made something wrong, or that the commotion just now had disturbed her big brother to fly the plane again. Seeing him like that, he must be angry again. She shrunk her neck, "What...... What's wrong? ”

"Be my wingman." Meng's tone is firm and his words are clear. This is not the same as the feeling when I knocked on the rearview mirror during the battle of the castle tower. Now, he felt something he hadn't felt before, he couldn't put it into words, but he thought it was a beautiful feeling, and no doubt he wanted to catch it and not let it go by.

"Phew." Jin Jiangji snorted with her nose disdainfully, "I thought it was the matter, it turns out that the big brother is so unserious about me." When I'm in the castle tower, I'll be your wingman. I confirmed this on the plane just now. Now I actually say that, hum, it turns out that I don't mean it. ”

"Quick! Promise me now! Meng Ji stared at Jin Jiangji's eyes.

"Oh, okay, okay." The little princess shrunk her neck, he was afraid of being hit and losing his temper, and he became cold, so that he was bored, "I promised, and I don't have to be so fierce." ”

At this moment, Meng Strike turned back, and he was about to face the shaped laser turret in front of him again. For him, it also symbolizes a part of the Hundred Days Ghost, the messenger of death.

His eyes were different now, and he no longer hesitated in the face of the dead claws, because he was no longer alone. Although, the duckling MiG-8 general aviation aircraft under the crotch was too small and did not carry any weapons, it was not possible for him to rashly destroy part of the air defense system of the new eastern capital.

However, he can at least try to face it. Find out what you suspect is going on.

On the sky garden of the Golden Sands Hotel, the concentrated laser turret slowly moved and aimed at Sho Nakamura's F-2CCV aircraft; Nakamura Sho is swooping down on the snake-headed multi-fined beast, ready to complete the rest of the race, although the race has been lost, but as the "drift king" he wants to become, he will not allow himself to give up halfway; And the direction of the F-2CCV dive is the crowd of onlookers. These people, like Meng Ji, Jin Jianghime, and Sho Nakamura, are survivors of that war, no matter what they are doing.

"Jin Jiangji." Meng Struck said to the little princess behind him.

"Oh, what's wrong?" Jin Jiangji didn't dare to say a word just now, she felt that her big brother was a little weird, strange and persistent, and she felt quite cute.

"Ready to go!"

"Okay, let's go!" The little princess was very excited, although it goes without saying that the two were on the same plane, and of course they set off together. But before she finished speaking, she only felt that her seat sank, as if she was on a roller coaster. The MiG-8 headed straight for the laser shaped weapon station on the rooftop.

At this time, Jin Jiangji also noticed the white hemispherical turret that looked like an astronomical telescope, and the turret guard had been opened, revealing the shaped laser emitter inside.

"Oh! Big brother beware! Jin Jiangji shouted, "...... over there"

"I see, the automatic laser turret has been activated."

"Could it be...... Isn't that thing already closed? That's a treaty prohibited weapon! Jin Jiang-hime also knows what kind of terrifying monster the "Hundred Day Oni" carrying this weapon is.

"It's okay!" It gradually became clear to Meng Strike that it was indeed no ordinary shaped laser turret.

"Ahh It turned around. ”

Meng Zhen deliberately dived at full speed and aimed the nose firmly at the laser turret on the roof. The automated defense system quickly increased the threat level of the faster, turret-rushing MiG-8 and turned it into an attack on the plane.

And Meng Striking's eyes widened, and his eyes stared straight at the other side.

As the distance shortened rapidly, the white hemispherical turret on the roof of the front building grew larger and larger, and the barrel inside the shield gradually turned right, presenting itself in front of the attack.

"Sure enough!" Meng Bang shouted.

It was too late, it was too fast, and with two muffled bangs, the sound was very small, and Jin Jiangji only felt that something invisible quickly swept over the fuselage, disturbing the air, and making the plane tremble a few times.

Before she could react, she suddenly felt that the world was turned upside down, and her head was on her feet. Fortunately, the seat belt held her body in place, and only her short hair fluttered, and her body seemed to be weightless.

It was a blow in maneuvering the plane to roll and dodge the attack of the automatic defense system.

"Wow!" Jin Jiangji shouted, "What's the matter! That's not a laser shaped cannon. ”

"That's right! I just guessed so. "Sure enough, it was just an ordinary fully automatic anti-aircraft gun, but with the shell of a laser shaped turret." ”

"Huh?" The little princess was a little surprised when she heard this, "You mean, the laser shaped turret that the government army has been reluctant to dismantle for a long time has actually been demolished?" Don't they make a fuss about this, but don't they tear it down? How has it been dismantled? ”

"The problem, here." Meng's voice was a little lower. Once this matter is confirmed, I am afraid that it will be strictly zhòng, "It is clear that it is not demolished, but it is actually demolished; Not only was it dismantled, but it was also disguised. It seems that we have discovered someone else's little secret. ”

"Huh? What did you say? Jin Jiangji asked loudly. After all, the engine was too noisy, and the sound was suddenly lowered, and she didn't hear it clearly for a while.

At this moment, the voice of the "drift king" Sho Nakamura came over the radio again: "Your side! You win! He was driving the F-2CCV out of the last crack on the opposite side, climbing again to regain cruising altitude. However, Sho Nakamura was too focused on the event to be completely unaware of what had just happened, and he was unaware that he had been targeted by the camouflage turret on the rooftop. "Let's go. I'll go back and apologize! Speaking of this, Sho Nakamura coughed, "Also, I want to greet the girl in your cabin." I'll win it back, and then, I want to get to know you. ”

The calls were radioed in the cabin of the bombarded MiG-8 aircraft.

Meng sneered.

Jin Jiangji's face also turned red, she didn't know how to answer, so she made a noise to Meng Ji: "Don't laugh!" Dislike! ”

The Owari F-2CCV climbed to cruising altitude, swung its wings in the air in greeting, then spun in a directional direction and disappeared into the night sky.

"Huh?" Jin Jiangji struggled to turn around, leaned against the bulkhead, and looked out of the porthole, "This is leaving?" ”

At this moment, the voice of the struck suddenly sounded in the ears of the little princess: "Well, we have to find a place to go back quickly." I'm running out of gas. ”

The voice of the eldest brother came suddenly, as if flying next to him. Jin Jiangji was taken aback: "Wow! He screamed. At this point, Meng Struck crouched in front of him, face to face with her.

Now, Meng Zhu looked into her eyes, making Jin Jiangji feel that she didn't know where to hide, but she was tied up, and the seat belt fixed her body, even if there was a hole in the ground, she couldn't get in. By the way, why should I hide?

Thinking of this, Jin Jiangji raised her head, bit her lip, and stared at Meng's eyes with her eyes open, as if she was competing to see who could hold on to her eyes longer without blinking. Unexpectedly, he raised his arms and hugged him, hugging his neck. At this moment, Jin Jiangji didn't know what to do, her breathing became short, her mouth was dry, and her body couldn't struggle.

The way he smiled with the corners of his mouth upturned made the little princess feel like she was about to suffocate.

"Sure enough, at the back of the neck." Meng said with a smile.

"Huh? What? Jin Jiangji was stunned for a moment, and leaned back her neck. At this moment, I suddenly felt a sense of relaxation in my neck and shoulders, as if I had taken a hot bath, my whole body was comfortable, and my blood flowed smoothly in my body. As soon as she subconsciously moved, all the red cotton ropes tied to her body were loosened and slid down.

"As I said, the rope is on the back of the neck." Meng Struck still smiled and looked at her, "It's the most difficult problem for me, but it's true." ”

"Oh." Jin Jiangji then understood. She also thought that Mengsheng came to hug her after winning the victory. The little princess looked at him and suddenly felt a fever on her face. Although the rope was untied, she didn't know what to do, like a schoolboy, she pulled her arms back from behind her, pressed them to her knees, straightened her waist, shrunk her neck, and stuck out her tongue, "That's ...... Ah, thanks. ”

"Haha. I'm going to be my wingman. Meng Bang stood up and rubbed her hair against Jin Jiangji's little head, "Let's go, just in time I'll take you to see our new airport." He sat back in the driver's seat and said to himself, "The autopilot of this plane is pretty good." ”

"By the way," Jin Jiangji suddenly thought, "What happened to that turret just now?" That's not a laser cannon. ”

"No, that's disguised." "Someone is planning something, and I'll tell you more when we get back to the airport, and we'll have to start preparing right away." At this, he suddenly let out a long sigh, "Alas! I'm just afraid ......"

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm just afraid that it may be too late."
