Chapter 323: Outpost Camp
Lifting the KAC machine gun and picking up a few boxes of bullet chains scattered on the ground, Qi Lin quickly increased the power furnace of the "Sakura" to a super high output of 90 percent, and then ran towards the center of the battlefield with fast steps.
"You are ready to retreat, I will cover you!"
Qi Lin drove the power armor and shouted loudly to the mercenaries while carrying the KAC to the front line of Yamato Heavy Industries.
"We withdrew, so what are you going to do?" Jiang Yi asked at the top of his voice.
"Although the little devil's power armor is terrible in all attributes, at least it is also nuclear-powered, as long as it is not blown up, they can't catch up with me!" Qi Lin replied.
"Alright, we'll be waiting for you at the outpost!"
With that, the mercenaries shot the last bazookas, and then rushed through the supply point and through the exit behind the supply point.
Qi Lin relied on the power armor not to be afraid of the bullets of ordinary players' assault rifles, so he stopped in the open space in front of the supply point, and constantly used the KAC machine gun to suppress the Yamato Heavy Industries players who tried to rush over.
The unique crisp "sudden" sound of the KAC saw-type machine gun, this light machine gun in the hands of the power armor, the recoil is about the same as that of a small-caliber submachine gun, almost where to fight, for a time it was so that the Dongying players behind the hill bag did not dare to show their heads at all.
"It's almost time to slip away......"
After Qi Lin replaced the last chain box, he also began to slowly retreat.
Being able to suppress hundreds of people with just one KAC is already very powerful, but if the time drags on for a long time and the enemy chooses to bypass from the side and surround Qi Lin, then the situation will be very bad.
Quickly finishing the last chain box, Qi Lin dropped the KAC and manipulated the "Sakura" to turn around and run, and the output of the power furnace was also adjusted to more than 95% close to the limit.
……
According to the performance parameters of the "Sakura" power armor, the limit state of 95 percent can be maintained stably for at least half an hour, but Qi Lin only ran out a few kilometers before he discovered that something was wrong - the power furnace located under the armor plate on his chest began to make a "crunch" sound that was on the verge of collapse, and the power of the power furnace also began to fluctuate violently, jumping to more than 80 for a while, and soaring to the 100 mark for a while...... Only then did Qi Lin realize that this glamorous-looking power armor was actually a refurbished machine that had been abandoned before the war.
There have been several fine cracks on the nuclear power furnace, and the radiation of the nuclear fuel inside the power furnace has gradually leaked out, thanks to Qi Lin, who is now driving the power armor, if he is replaced by the previous driver, the radiation leaked from this part alone is enough to take his life in a few seconds.
"Damn, don't Dongying people pay attention to excellence, how can there be such shoddy products......"
The subtle "crunch" sound inside the power furnace has turned into a "clang" sound, a pipeline used to transport high-pressure gas has completely broken, and all the gases originally used to cool the power furnace have escaped, and the inside of the power furnace has suddenly risen to a very dangerous temperature.
"Danger warning! Danger warning! Power furnace が過熱する! ”
The holographic screen in front of Qi Lin's eyes kept flashing with a dazzling red light, and the warnings of the power armor kept echoing in his ears - if nothing was done, I am afraid that in a while, the entire power furnace of this power armor would explode.
The power furnace used in the power armor is actually a simplified post-small nuclear reactor, although the power of the explosion is certainly not as terrifying as that of a nuclear weapon, but it is still possible to blow the operator inside the power armor to pieces.
At this time, it was no longer possible to reduce the output of the power furnace through OS, Qi Lin could only lift the armor plate covered by the power furnace, grabbed a manual pressure relief valve outside the power furnace, and pressed it down force-
"Whew-"
A large amount of high-temperature gas gushed out from the cracks in the power furnace, and through the cracks, it can be seen that the metal parts inside the power furnace that have been red and deformed are rapidly cooling down......
"The danger is lifted, and the power furnace is ...... 89%…… 70%…… 55%…… 35%……”
Although the risk of being killed by the power furnace was eliminated, the entire "Sakura" power furnace was completely scrapped, and as the power of the power furnace dropped from nearly 100% to zero, the entire power armor completely lost its power source.
"Damn, no wonder so many people don't like to buy second-hand cars......"
The power armor that lost power was completely cumbersome to wear on his body, and Qi Lin had to spend several times his strength every time he made a move, so he had no choice but to get out of the power armor and start running on foot.
Fortunately, before scrapping this power armor, Qi Lin had already opened a considerable distance with the pursuers of Yamato Heavy Industries, and now even if the other party can get a vehicle, he may not be able to catch up with him.
……
……
Following the direction Jiang Yi pointed out to him before leaving, Qi Lin headed all the way to the southwest, and finally after a long trek, he saw the outpost camp established in the mountain col.
Although the scale of this outpost camp is not large, its defense and firepower are not bad, not only is it more than five meters high, the wall is embedded with armor plates, and there are several fully automatic large-caliber sentry machine guns on the wall.
As soon as Qi Lin walked to the front of the camp, the gate of the camp was opened, and Jiang Yi and the others welcomed Qi Lin in with an excited face.
"I knew you were so good that you couldn't die!"
"Don't say it, that broken power armor almost killed me. In other words, does the alliance have anything to say about this mission? Qi Lin said stupidly, fortunately, the design of the power furnace of "Sakura" retains the manual pressure relief valve, otherwise in the face of a nuclear power furnace that is about to explode, Qi Lin really has no good solution.
"It's not bad, although I almost lost my life this time, but I can earn 50,000 resource points on such a trip, which is enough for this." Jiang Yi and Qi Lin walked into the camp together, and said as they walked.
"Fifty thousand? Isn't the pay fifteen thousand? And we didn't complete the task, right? Qi Lin was stunned for a moment and asked with some puzzlement.
"Changed, the people above changed the content of the task, and the reward was increased to 50,000, anyway, their purpose was achieved, and this money is nothing to them, so it should be used to appease the emotions of those of us who were sold." Jiang Yi pursed his lips and said with some indifference.
Hearing him say this, Qi Lin hurriedly opened his brain, only to see that the original "blocking the supply line" in the mission record had become "feints to attack the Gray Ridge Mountains and involve the Yamato Heavy Industry Mobile Force".
The reward for the task has also increased from 15,000 points to 50,000 points.
However, these 50,000 points, those players who hung up in the process of performing the mission can't get it, and the people who can come back alive this time are less than one-fifth of the time they set off, and the total mission reward has not only not increased, but is much less than the original.
Qi Lin sighed, the mercenary profession was originally to exchange his life for money, although he knew that the other party had concealed the facts first, resulting in heavy losses for everyone - however, as long as there was enough compensation, those mercenaries who survived would not only not say anything, but would be very happy.
After all, for them, the end result is that they survive and get more money - as for those who hang up, they are already hung up anyway, and who cares what they think......
