Chapter 118: Nightmare
The dense sound of war drums is getting closer, and the soldiers of Rus' are staring at what will come out of the darkness. But at this moment, the beating of war drums suddenly stopped.
Without warning, everything returned to a deathly silence. But it only exacerbated the tension in everyone's hearts - the unknown is the greatest fear.
"What's wrong?" At this moment, Vasily also noticed the movement here and came to check.
"General Vasily." Unconsciously seeing the commander coming, the Ross soldiers subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and were much more relaxed. At least the arrival of the general has boosted morale a lot.
"The other side launched an attack just now and triggered the minefield, but just now they seem to have retreated again." For these words, Rogov himself did not believe it. But now, even if he is full of suspicions, he can't find a more reasonable explanation.
But as soon as the words fell, two earth-shattering loud noises pierced the sky!
Lian Zhan's huge searchlight turned into a meal of pieces at the same time! A sudden attack in the darkness pushed the city, which was as bright as day, into darkness!
"Damn it!" It was dark, and only the torches brought dim light from the city, and the silhouettes of the people around them could be seen in front of them. Unexpectedly, the other party had already planned to destroy their searchlight.
Careless!
The Rus' soldiers angrily returned fire, and the bombardment once again covered everything in front of the walls?.? `
"Roguv! Let them bring a spare searchlight! ”
"But ・・・・・・," Rogov said, looking at his boss puzzled, wouldn't it still be possible to destroy the spare lighting equipment?
"Don't ask why, do as I say!"
"Yes!"
Rogov had to reinstall the spare lighting and equipment along the city walls with a team of soldiers, because this was already in place before, so the new searchlights were quickly installed.
"Get out of the way!"
Vasily couldn't wait to plug in the power, and the huge pillar of light immediately dispelled the darkness!
But. A huge black shadow had appeared in front of the Rus people at some point, and at that moment, everyone's hearts seemed to be held in the palm of their hands.
It was fear, fear made their hearts stop at that moment, it was a giant mech they had never seen before, even the [Teutonic type] mecha that had always been known for its height and might was as vulnerable as a short man in front of it.
It is a full 20 meters high. How could such a huge mecha be created, and the height of the fortified walls was no more than that.
It's hard to imagine what kind of terrifying power core such a behemoth is to support this machine to start, is it the charge just now? Such a terrifying giant made everyone's hearts tremble.'
The incomparably huge mecha exudes a suffocating coercion, making everyone have an urge to kneel down and prostrate, just like the spontaneous awe when facing the king, the surrender to absolute power.
It's not so much a mecha as a giant in heavy armor, and his whole body exudes a solemn aura. The silver armor was covered with intricate and delicate patterns, and it was hard to imagine any mecha that could be so exquisite. But its beauty does not hide its danger in the slightest. The giant iron giant scanned the Rus' on the city walls like a warrior.
The silver armor was particularly solemn in the light of the searchlight, like a god standing in front of them.
This is an ancient mecha, this must be an ancient mecha! Vasily suddenly broke free from the restraints of fear, and he finally realized what it was. This kind of aura does not belong to ordinary mecha at all, but belongs to the coercion that only the first generation had.
Only that kind of existence can bring such suffocating panic. Even in a closed country like Rus', the mechs have a deep influence here, and they were once allies of the New Roman Empire, and it is because of this that more than ten years ago. In the years before the fall of that great empire, he also witnessed the legendary ancient mecha called the "First Generation" in Constantinople.
It is said that all the mecha in this world are based on the three ancient mecha excavated in the Holy Sepulchre. However, after decades of development, the most powerful fourth- and third-generation aircraft are not at all opponents of their ancestors. And with the passage of time, more and more ancient mecha have also been discovered in the East, more ancient mecha technology has been mastered by humans, and killing machines have also been constantly updated.
However, manipulating the ancient mecha to fight was the first time he had seen it in more than ten years. And the last time I was in Constantinople, I witnessed the terrifying scene of the dazzling knight king driving that ancient mecha.
But now, at last, he remembered once again the fear of being dominated by power and power at that moment. The insignificance and powerlessness of human beings are easily sketched out in this moment.
"Fire!" Vasily, struggling to the last of his strength, roared.
The Rus' soldiers, awakened from their nightmares, finally reacted, and turned their guns on the huge silver giant.
"Boom, boom!"
Brilliant artillery fire bloomed on the huge mech, and dangerous and dense shells fell on it.
The rapid-fire cannons roared incessantly, and the Rus' were not stingy at all, and the few shells they had left in their hands instantly devoured the enemy with saturated firepower. Even if it is really a god, it will be impossible to escape under such firepower!
But in the hideous faces of the Rus. As time passed, the fear grew.
When the smoke cleared・・・・・・ huge and solemn mecha in front of them still stood silently in front of them, looking down on the tiny Rus, just like gods and demons watching the humble human beings powerless and cowardly in the face of the absolute power of life and death.
"This ・・・・・・ this impossible!" Trembling with fear, Vasily exclaimed.
And suddenly, a piercing and strange scream pierced the eardrums, causing everyone to bend down and cover their ears, it was a devil's cry.
At this moment, the huge mecha finally moved, and the huge arm was raised high, indifferently peeking at the humans who were dominated by fear.
"O God! Forgive us! ”
In the desperate hiss of the Rus', the huge arms fell as if a judgment had been made!
The entire seemingly unbreakable wall finally fell, collapsed and collapsed.
・・・・・・
"Is this the power of [Nightmares]?" Even the second time he saw it, Will thought it was incredible. This is the ancient mecha they found in the ruins of the Far East, and the runaway crisis caused by that year almost destroyed an ancient kingdom, but when he saw it again, Will still shuddered.
After taking it under control, the Teutonic Knights found a strange letter on its body, and the translation in the local language is [Nightmare], so the code name of this ancient mecha became this.
"It's a nightmare!" (To be continued.) )
