Chapter 227: Our Hope
"Da Da Da-"
Just when Wang Yang's life was hanging by a thread, a burst of machine guns suddenly sounded, and a series of huge machine cannon shells bombarded Smith fiercely, knocking him out at once, and the place where he was standing was also shattered by this wave of bullet rain. Wang Yang, who escaped death, fell from his hands.
Dozens of meters away, there was a sound of steel and steel colliding machinery, and a huge figure walked quickly from the darkness, which turned out to be the APU mecha pilot that Wang Yang had just saved.
Not only him, but behind him, several APU mechs appeared one after another, which was almost the last strength of the APU armored forces, and as soon as they appeared, they hurriedly rushed straight to Wang Yang, one squatted down, and the other several formed a circle, and the machine gun pointed in the direction of Smith's flying, maintaining a high alert posture.
"Hey, can you still move?" The driver at the head asked, "We protect you from the evacuation!" β
After a while, Wang Yang's mental strength recovered a little, and he reluctantly replied with his mind: "Smith is coming back soon, you guys go quickly." β
The pilot tried several times but couldn't help him up, so he simply stopped the mech and jumped out of the cockpit: "Don't worry, I've already killed him." β
Wang Yang was anxious all of a sudden: these soldiers are just ordinary people, they don't know how powerful Smith is, just his super alloy body is enough to completely wipe out the entire APU team, if it wasn't for Smith stopping the energy conversion of most of the electronic runes just now, they wouldn't have been able to hit at all. And even his own lore of reversing the electromagnetic torrent can be resisted, what are these shells?
"Leave me alone! Come on! Otherwise you'll all die! Before Wang Yang finished speaking, Smith's voice interrupted him: "Don't worry, you will all die anyway." Existence without meaning and purpose should all die in the end. His radiant figure landed from the sky, and the soldiers were stunned without the slightest damage to his body.
The soldier at the head was the first to come to his senses and immediately roared: "Damn it, fire!" β
"Da Da Da ββββββ"
The cannons of several APU mechs immediately poured out dense tongues of fire, and the storm composed of huge warheads instantly overwhelmed Smith, and the soldier did not forget to shout at the soldier who was supporting Wang Yang when he opened fire with all his might: "Take him to retreat to the temple, quick!" β
Smith in the steel storm stood still like a mountain, and the huge kinetic energy of the cannon shell fell on him, and he couldn't even bounce out a spark, but the electronic runes that kept lighting up gave Wang Yang an unparalleled coercion, making him almost lose consciousness again.
He tried his best to get rid of the soldier's support, but the strength of the other party was something he could not fight against at this time, and after several failed efforts, he suddenly asked, "Why do you want to save me?" β
The soldier replied loudly as he walked, "This is Captain McVanley's dying order, and I must complete it." β
- Captain McFanley killed in battle?
Wang Yang's heart sank slightly, thinking of the hearty and resolute old man, and a faint sadness echoed in his heart.
"What is his order?" After a pause, Wang Yang suddenly asked.
The soldier replied as he helped him on, "I must protect you at all costs, for you are the future of humanity." β
Wang Yang was stunned for a moment: "You believe me? As far as Wang Yang knows, his compatriots in Zion basically have no objection to his powerful superpowers, but they are very unimpressed with the statement that he is the hope of human beings, after all, this is a world of science, and it is difficult to have much market for fantasy.
Sure enough, the soldier hesitated, shook his head and said, "No! β
Before Wang Yang could speak, he said in an extremely firm tone: "But Captain McFanley believes in you, so I must believe in you!" β
Although he couldn't see the soldier's expression, the unquestionable trust made Wang Yang speechless for a while, only an inexplicable warm current stirred in his chest.
Seeing that Wang Yang didn't speak, the soldier thought he was worried, so he said, "You just have to rest assured, if those machines want to hurt you, they must first step over my corpseγγγγγγ β
"Boom-"
Before the words fell, a huge explosion suddenly sounded from behind, and a tyrannical shock wave swept in, and the soldier had no time to do anything, so he could only suddenly pounce on Wang Yang. At the same time, a strong sense of weightlessness enveloped Wang Yang again.
I don't know how long it took, Wang Yang woke up from his coma.
In the confusion, he reluctantly probed his spiritual power around, but it was still a blur, only the qi induction that was not affected by the state of life told him that the life breath around him had been almost completely extinguished, and there was a dead silence within ten meters of at least ten meters around him.
A strong sense of weightlessness eroded over, but Wang Yang condensed all his consciousness and stubbornly held on to the last point of clarity.
Eventually, the weightlessness faded. Wang Yang suddenly found that his mental power seemed to have recovered somewhat, and he could perceive everything around him more clearly; Not only that, but the facial features, whose physiological functions have long been paralyzed, have also recovered to varying degrees.
- By the way, what about the soldier just now?
Without thinking about the reason for the recovery, Wang Yang hurriedly scanned the soldier's mental fluctuations, but after several times, nothing was found, and just as Wang Yang was about to continue to extend the scope of the scan outward regardless of the danger, a faint fluctuation suddenly entered his consciousness.
- Yes, that's the fluctuation.
Wang Yang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly followed the target he perceived to move over, but he immediately found that the little spiritual power he had recovered was not enough for him to control his physical movements, and now he could only lie in place weakly, waiting for the last trace of life force to slowly burn out.
Just when he was at a loss for what to do, a voice burst into his consciousness: "Want to see your last compatriots?" Mr. Wang Yang, why don't you let me help with this! β
Sensing this voice like a grim reaper, Wang Yang's heart gradually sank, and this voice was none other than Smith.
It is clear that the last few APU mechs have been killed, the tarmac defense battle is completely over, and the Zion Defense Force has been completely wiped out.
But to Wang Yang's surprise, a few seconds later, a body that was still warm was placed in front of him, Wang Yang immediately recognized the mental fluctuation, he tried his best to turn his head to look over, the soldier was covered in blood, his spine was bent at a strange angle, and as soon as he landed, he spat out a large mouthful of blood from his mouth, mixed with broken internal organs. It only takes one look to know that the soldier's life will not exceed ten minutes.
Looking at this life that was still alive just now, Wang Yang's heart seemed to be tightly clenched by a big hand, and the feeling suffocated him, he asked in a weak voice, "You, what do you want to say?" β
The soldier's godless eyes had long since lost their ability to focus, but as soon as he heard his voice, a bright light jumped out from the depths of his eyes, and he struggled to open his mouth and said word by word: "Don't γγγγγγ Die...... Only...... Are you aliveγγγγγγ Someone I loveγγγγγγ Talent...... Better γγγγγγ Stay aliveγγγγγγ With...... It's mine...... That γγγγγγ Wish...... Together...... Stay aliveγγγγγγ β
These few simple words made the loss of his vitality speed accelerate sharply, and when it came to living, he had lost the ability to control his vocal cords, his lips trembled and tried his best to open and close, but he could no longer say a word, only the bright light in his eyes, under the light of the fire, still beating tenaciously.
"Boom!"
A blazing electromagnetic current suddenly rushed into Wang Yang's field of vision, and he couldn't see anything except a miserable white.
As if out of instinct, an ominous premonition suddenly became extremely strong in Wang Yang's heart, and for a moment, he even forgot about his qi machine sensing and mental power scanning, and just desperately opened his eyes to see the soldier's location, even though the afterglow of the electromagnetic current still stayed on the retina.
All he wanted to know was what had happened to the young man who had sacrificed himself to keep hope.
The white discomfort gradually subsided, colors and vision began to emerge, and when Wang Yang finally readjusted to the darkness, the scene in front of him made him stunned for a moment: the soldier's eyes were still wide open, but the light of hope had been completely extinguished from his eyes, and a scorched black piercing wound in the back of his heart was wordlessly telling of the loss of another life.
I don't know if it was extreme shock or dying helplessness, Wang Yang just opened his eyes wide, looking at the life that had just disappeared not far away.
Needless to say.
Silent.
Motionless.
At this time, the remnants of the battlefield gradually extinguished, the darkness became thicker, and the smoke of gunpowder fell low, as if to bury all life and hope.
A drop of blood slipped from the soldier's uncooled sideburns and dripped onto the cold, hard ground, and with a soft "click" sound, it shattered into a small blood flower.
Wang Yang's pupils suddenly contracted.
In the thick darkness, the blood flower was still bright as a fiery red, instantly stinging his eyes and heart.
- Trinityγγγγγγ
- McFanleyγγγγγγ
- Those soldiers who did not hesitateγγγγγγ
He suddenly felt that something that he had unconsciously held on to since entering infinite reincarnation had disappeared without a traceγγγγγγ
At this time, Smith's voice woke him up in a daze: "Bugs like this ant should have died a long time ago." β
This sentence instantly ignited the long-standing emotions in Wang Yang's heart, thinking of Neo's trust and entrustment, thinking of those eager eyes, thinking of those figures that followed one after another, thinking of those weak but blazing lives like flames, a shattering aura could not be contained, and he let out a long roar, and he didn't know where the power came from, so that he stood up tremblingly with his consciousness and body that was about to dissipate
Smith was getting carried away, and at first glance he saw Wang Yang standing up like a god, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
At this time, Wang Yang's oil was exhausted, and just the blood loss on his body could kill him, and the spiritual power he inspired at the cost of his life was also exhausted, and even the ability to fight back with strength was completely lost, so it can be said that there was no longer the slightest threat, but somehow, when Smith saw Wang Yang's eyes, he felt a sense of impending disaster.
It seems that standing in front of him is the god who decides the long river of fate, but he is an insignificant ant.
This feeling frightened him and made him angry.
- This human must not be allowed to continue to live, even if he has only one second left to live.
Thinking like this, Smith grinned and grabbed Wang Yang's neck like grabbing a helpless puppet: "So, goodbye, Mr. Wang Yang." β
Wang Yang's face was full of life, but his eyes were as deep and vast as the universe, and these were by no means the eyes of a dying person.
Smith had an inexplicable palpitation, and he threw Wang Yang out, like catching a snake, completely forgetting that as long as his fingers were slightly harder, Wang Yang's life would be wiped out immediately. An unusually strong intuition made him instinctively want to stay away from this human being, the farther away the better, and he couldn't even mention the idea of killing Wang Yang with his own hands.
Wang Yang flew far away, his limbs swaying weakly with inertia, and he actually looked a little like flying. In the direction he flew out, a large group of electronic squids swarmed up like wolves that smelled blood.
In Wang Yang's last bit of consciousness, the electronic squid was overwhelming, the red electronic eyes revealed the coldness of evil and killing, countless open tentacles were like the sickles of death, in the distance, against the background of darkness, there were ruins everywhere, the world was burning and exploding**, and the billowing smoke that filled the entire space, everything, as if the end was coming.
It was the image he had seen in the depths of his consciousness after his first serious injury.
