Chapter 66: Forward
"Kaguya-hime, has there been any change in the other party?"
"No, he's still walking at his original pace, very slowly."
pinched the steering wheel, and Lu Mingfei's heart became more and more bottomless. Despite the rainstorm, the deep and distinctive engine sound of the Maybach could not be heard by the dragons, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Why can you clearly hear the enemy approaching but still not panic? Is it because he's actually deaf? Or is it because of ...... Humans aren't afraid of an ant's approach?
Swallowing his saliva, Lu Mingfei began to think back to the various tactics that had been forcibly stuffed into his mind in those months. After a moment of silence, he asked a little bottomlessly in his heart: "Is there any way to attack the other party in advance?" Kaguya-hime? ”
"Yes." Kaguya nodded. "Please completely open the box that Mr. Li Su gave you and put the phone in front of the dashboard."
Lifting the lid of the entire box and throwing the lid directly out of the window, Lu Mingfei held his breath and waited for Kaguya to move. A faint blue glow lit up and then slowly extinguished in various parts of the chest, repeating itself as if something alive was breathing in the chest. Suddenly all the lights went out, and it was dark again in Maybach.
"Please open the skylight."
"It's raining outside." Lu Mingfei reminded.
"I think in a time of crisis like this, even the student council president can get caught in the rain."
"I didn't mean this......" Lu Mingfei had a black line on his head, and opened the skylight while complaining: "Miss Kaguya, don't treat the student union as a group of noble sons with fine skin and tender meat, okay?" Not to mention that the previous president was a ruthless character who brandished the Desert Eagle and rushed to the front line! ”
"Please shut up, extra information will not help you in the rest of the battle." Kaguya Hime showed no mercy.
Lu Mingfei obediently shut up. Although her voice sounded like that of a little girl, he estimated that this Kaguya should be a queen-like character. The queen, naturally, said that the east can't go west, not to mention that he still has to ask for this little queen, so naturally he has to be more obedient.
Multiple buzzing sounds sounded next to him, and Lu Mingfei felt that what was next to him was not an equipment box but a large beehive, and at this moment, the hive was stabbed with a stick. There was a constant cool breeze on his cheeks, but he couldn't feel anything in the dark streets.
Suddenly, a thunderbolt struck, and with the blue-purple electric light of that moment, Lu Mingfei could see clearly what was what. That's a series of drones all around! Kaguya asked him to open the skylight in order to open a passageway! These little black creatures faded away in the wind and rain, like elves who finally disappeared into the forest.
Kaguya's explanation rang in Lu Mingfei's ears at the right time: "Codenamed 'Horus', a modular all-weather quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle, different functions can be achieved by replacing different mounting modules, and the rated load is ......"
Kaguya reports a long list of data, and at the same time he understands what Kaguya means by telling him to put his phone in front of the dashboard. The brightness of the phone's screen is turned up to the maximum, and the picture is clearly reflected on the Maybach windshield. The picture is a top-down view of a part of the city, but the camera zooms out quickly, and this part keeps shrinking. Lu Mingfei understood, there should be a reconnaissance type among so many Horus, and it kept transmitting back the picture in front of it.
"What weapons does Horus have on it?"
"Because time is pressing, there is no time to make a differentiated configuration, so I am carrying all the '3.5 Gungnir', a special armor-piercing bullet made by the equipment department, with a caliber of 3.5 cm, and one round on each Horus."
"Where's the power?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Hmm...... It should be difficult to understand the data in Mr. Lu Mingfei's field of knowledge......" Kaguya thought for a moment. "Each one can easily penetrate two dance kings."
"What? Why don't we have this artifact as a backup when we act? I was already preparing for hand-to-hand combat! Lu Mingfei was shocked.
"On the one hand, because the relationship between the Armament Department and the Executive Department has never been harmonious, and 'Gangenir' has never been taken out." Kaguya explained. "On the other hand, we need to catch it alive."
By the time they were talking, the six Horus had swooped down on the walking figure like ghosts in the night. The Scout type keeps pulling up, and finally hangs above the opponent's head. Closer to the ground, Horus 1 accelerated abruptly and rushed towards the unsuspecting enemy.
"Ready...... Launch! Kaguya whispered.
Lu Mingfei was ready to enjoy the grand scene. He knew what an armor-piercing bullet was. The shaped charge causes the piercing part at the front end to turn into a jet of metal, and the metal that reaches the glow point will be as bright as the sun for that moment.
But nothing has happened, or everything has happened. The shadow's footsteps had not changed from beginning to end, but Horus One had already swirled and descended like a bird with broken wings. It disintegrated in mid-air, and the high-strength metal skeleton that allowed it to fly around the clock was halved in half with the gungnir. The split Horus fell into the puddle, the detached circuit boards sparkling, the propellers spinning desperately until they were shattered to pieces by the high-revving motors, and Gungnir extinguished before it could light up, forever in the puddle.
The initiator of all this is still moving forward silently, unhurriedly. Lu Mingfei originally thought that the other party was an assassin who targeted Eri Yi, but now he realized that he was too wrong. The other side is clearly a heavily armed army! He's not here to assassinate, he's going to crush the target and all the obstacles in his way directly by violence!
Kaguya was stunned, this was something she hadn't thought of. What's going on? Did the target use some remote voices? Or what is the effect in what field?
"Attack from all angles! Shooting distance doubled! Kaguya-hime, does the reconnaissance type have a high-speed camera?! Lu Mingfei yelled.
"Yes." Although she didn't understand what he meant, Kaguya Ji acted in an instant according to Lu Mingfei's arrangement. The remaining four Horus attacked from four directions, and ignited the primer before they could hit 100% of the distance. Without waiting for the result, Lu Mingfei directly called up the scene of the high-speed video recorder slowing down.
In the digital video, which has been stretched thousands of times by time, the ghostly monster hidden in the shadows has finally appeared. It wasn't the Spirit of Words or the Realm that shot down Horus, but the simple arc-shaped heavy sword in the Black Shadow's hand, but he was too fast for them to see.
He exerts his strength, jumps, chops, exerts his strength, jumps again, chops down...... The movements of the black shadow in each frame are fragmented, as if they are playing "The King of Fighters" with some weak model. His movements are as fierce as a lion when he jumps, and his movements are as light as a swallow when he lands. He turned and jumped to the next one...... In an instant, all three of Horus were destroyed.
But double the distance still worked. Four Horus received orders to attack at the same time, and the last one shot Gungnir. At the speed of the Black Shadow, he thought it would be an easy thing to do. But he didn't, and instead raised his hand and slashed Gungnir with a sword. The split pieces of metal deform and flip in mid-air with a liquid-like texture, emitting a bright yellow light, and the scene is frozen forever by the high-speed camera.
The elongated shrapnel flew behind the black shadow, like a pair of bright golden wings that belonged to him. Curved heavy swords, men wrapped in black robes, broken robes fluttering in the wind, brilliant golden wings...... And the endless torrential rain around. This should have been the unrealistic fantasy of some crazy artist after getting drunk, but this moment is very real in reality.
The high-speed video was stopped by Lu Mingfei at this moment, but the black shadow did not stay, he returned to his original trajectory after cutting down the last Horus. He continued to walk slowly like that, like an emotionless machine. Lu Mingfei looked at the figure that looked like a god and a devil in the picture, and fell into silence.
"Time zero." He concluded.
"Yes, this should be the Spirit of Speech." Kaguya said.
"He seems to have a special early warning mechanism, similar to the beast's sixth sense, which can detect the opponent and counterattack before it is attacked. If we attack fast enough, we can deal damage to him, but ...... None of the equipment here can reach that speed...... We don't have a chance of winning. Kaguya continued.
"Let's go pick up Eri first, and then run for our lives. Our task is to stall until Li Su solves the problem over there, and then he will deal with this tricky guy. ”
"Next, I'll change the route and navigate to the Municipal No. 3 Hospital......"
"Who said that?"
Kaguya-hime, who was talking about her next plan, came to an abrupt end. After standing for a moment, she asked incomprehensibly, "What did you say?" ”
"Who said...... No odds? Lu Mingfei said through gritted teeth.
"It's been exchanged, he'll go to save his sister, and it's ...... to save Eri My business! ”
"As long as it's alive, as long as he can move, he can be killed! If the drone doesn't work, it will be a pistol, and if the pistol can't work, it will be a bomb! If I can't do it, I still have a knife! I'm still having teeth after the knife is done! Kaguyahime, forward! Advance by any means!! ”
