Chapter 31: The Flames (1)
The blood-red sun hung high in the sky, illuminating the earth as if it had been soaked in blood. The wind stopped, the clouds didn't move, and time stood still at this moment. Ali and I hid under the wall, worried about what was going on outside, as the group of townsfolk to the west would soon approach their location. At this time, the other side, Fleur and the three of them and Lazy all stopped attacking, and neither side made any movement, as if they were observing each other, waiting for each other's next move.
I turned on the comm and said to Fleur, who was still hanging in the sky.
"Sister Fleur, the townsfolk will soon be in your place, you need to be careful. ”
"How far is it?"
"I think it's almost 1 km away. What are we going to do?"
"Gotta find a way to delay them. ”
"I, how am I going to delay?"
"Your bracelet, which also has a glove pattern on it, goes into that mode. ”
"Captain, be careful!"
In the blink of an eye, a thick laser aimed at Fleur and shot down from the sky, and another machine appeared next to the lazy man. Fortunately, with Mo Qingyan's reminder, Fu Hui had time to react and turned over in time to dodge.
I opened my bracelet, turned around, saw the glove pattern, and pressed it without hesitation. The moment I pressed it down, the fingers of both hands reached the elbow level, and my left hand turned blue, and my right hand turned red, and at first glance, it looked like I was wearing a pair of gloves. But before I could understand what this pattern was, I heard a quarrel in the sky, and the lazy man on one side of the sky still spoke harshly to the hibiscus on the other side of the sky in his very contemptuous tone.
"Sister Fu, you're fighting! Don't be distracted. ”
"Hmph, do you think I don't know what little moves you're doing behind your back?
"Oh, what am I doing again?"
"Hmph, whatever you say to give the townspeople a better life, it's all fake! You quietly! No! Blatantly modify their brains and treat them like your machines! Use them! They are all living people! Despicable! Shameless!"
"Am I despicable? I am shameless?" Lazy frowned, the corners of his mouth rose angrily, he pointed to his chest, and roared, "It's me! I'm the one who makes them no longer need to work, it's me who makes them eat and sleep well at home all day long like uncles!"
"Damn!"
"I don't need them to kneel and knock on me, these inefficient and cheap laborers, if I don't call them, they will have no value for a long time! Yes! I am using them! So what's wrong?"
"You don't even think of them as human beings!"
Ali poked me in the waist with his elbow, and I realized that the townsfolk were suddenly walking faster. In this way, in just a few minutes, they were about to reach Fleur's position, and Fleur and they fell into the situation of being attacked on their backs. No, I'm going to have to figure out why Fleur wants me to go into this mode!
"Lao Xu, Mo Qingyan, are you there?"
"Yes, is there anything you can help with? ”
"Lao Xu, it's good that you're here, what does Fleur mean by letting me enter this glove mode?"
"Gloves?Remote mode?Are you blue on your left hand and red on your right hand?"
"Yes, weird color schemes. ”
"That's the remote control mode, the left hand can choose the substance, and the right hand can move the substance. ”
"What do you mean?"
"You use your left hand first, you open your palm, and the palm is aimed at the substance around you, and you try it from a small point to see if there is a small stone. ”
I opened my blue left hand as Lao Xu said, looked around for a suitable stone, and then aimed my palm at it, waited for a few seconds, and there was no response.
I turned my palm over to see why there was no movement? Is it broken?
At that moment, I bent my fingers slightly, and a blue light emanated from the palm of my hand. I realized that the key to this movement is to bend the five fingers slightly. So, I re-aligned the stone, bent my fingers slightly, and the blue light emitted from my palm hit the stone, and I scanned it.
"Old Xu, and then?"
Then you turn your right hand at the rock, put your ring and tail fingers together, open only the other three fingers, and throw your hand wherever you want. ”
I put down the gun I was holding in my right hand and attached it to my belt. Straightened his right hand, and according to Lao Xu's request, the ring finger and tail finger were retracted, and the other three fingers were opened vigorously. A red light emitted from the palm of his hand and completely enveloped the blue-scanned stone.
My right hand lifted up slightly, and the stone floated up with my hand, and moved with the movement of my hand. As soon as my finger relaxed, it fell to the ground, and as soon as I opened it hard, it moved again. This is the role of the glove pattern, Lao Xu called it remote control mode, which originally meant air control.
At this time, the townspeople are getting closer and closer, and if they are not stopped, the consequences are really unimaginable. Ali patted me on the shoulder, motioning to look ahead, my head slowly peeking out of the wall, looking in the direction of his fingers. He was pointing in the direction of a fence across the street, which was higher than the others.
"Little girl, there's a wall there!"
"What's wrong with a wall?"
"See if you can pull it over and block the way. ”
"How can I pull such a big wall! I've just learned!"
"There's no way now! Hurry up and try! Hurry!"
"This ...... It's too much to rush the ducks to the shelves!"
Reluctantly, I stood up slightly, for fear of being discovered, and pointed my open left hand at the wall. Blue light came out of the palm of my left hand, and it took more than ten seconds just to scan that wall. Then I pointed my right hand at it as I had done with the prescribed gesture, and the red light shot out of my palm, quickly enveloping the wall.
I gritted my teeth and tried to pull the wall over, but no matter how hard I tried, even if I tried to feed, the wall didn't move. I looked at Ali with an aggrieved look on my face and said to him.
"Ali, no, I can't pull it at all, why don't you think of another way!"
"It's okay! I'll help you!"
At first, I thought Ali would give up on this impossible thing, but I never expected him to stand up, grab my right hand with both hands and pull it back, trying to help me pull the wall over.
It was as if my hand was being pulled by a thick rope, and we all know that the pull is reciprocal. Ali grabbed my arm hard and pulled it back, and the wall pulled my arm forward. I only felt that the meridians and muscles in my arm were going to be torn apart alive, and it was really painful. I couldn't bear the pain anymore, and the tears and sweat of Bean-sized beans flowed straight out.
"No, no, it hurts, it hurts!"
"Bear with me a little longer, it's going to go! Come on, little girl!"
I could already feel my whole arm trembling, the pain that tugged on my nerves, and I was almost fainting. But at this moment, I heard the sound of stones breaking, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that the wall was suspended in mid-air, and the whole wall was pulled out by me.
I gasped and watched in disbelief, but Ali urged me to quickly place it sideways in the middle of the road to block the townspeople's path. Many things are painful and difficult to pick up, but it is much easier to put them down. With my left hand, I dragged my already weak right hand and slowly placed the wall across the street.
I thought to myself that this would cut off the townspeople's path and give them a little time.
"A wall...... It doesn't seem like enough, more than that!" Ali shook his head and looked at me with affirmative eyes.
"What? I'm not doing it, it's so painful!" I regret from the bottom of my heart that I'm turning on this remote control mode, and I won't do it anymore.
"If you don't do it, I'll do it, little girl, bear with me. ”
"I ...... I don't want ......"
"Come on, it's a matter of life and death!"
Although I tried my best to resist, I was dragged to several different places by Ali, and in the same way, I tore down a few walls and placed them horizontally in the middle of the road. At the same time, a few large rocks were moved and placed in the middle of those narrow alleys, creating the appearance of a dead end.
Seeing that the avenues had turned into dead ends, Ali nodded with satisfaction and gave me a thumbs up. I was so tired that I collapsed to the ground, my whole right arm twitching unconsciously, and I didn't have the strength to accept his praise. Never before in my memory had I tried to do so much work in such a short period of time. Ali crouched beside me, head to my head, looking at each other, sympathetically comforting me.
"Little girl, yes, great. ”
"Kill me...... I'm not doing it anymore...... I'm exhausted. ”
"Or ...... You take a break here first, and I'll go check on the situation. ”
"Good...... All right. There you go. ”
Ali then walked away, ran to the heights, took a look at the townspeople, and reported back to me. I didn't really need his debriefing, because I could faintly hear their footsteps as I lay on the ground. Just now, the footsteps in the distance suddenly stopped, and then I knew that the sweat I was shedding was not in vain.
"Little girl, eh. Ali whispered.
"What?
"How do you know? They stopped. ”
"And what are they doing now?"
"It looks like they're reorganizing the team, I guess, it's going to take a detour. ”
"Detour, detour, what's the detour, I won't continue to move the wall! I can't move it!"
"It doesn't matter to us what they detour, we have just blocked the main roads, and it will take a lot of effort for them to get there!
It turned out that Ali was dragging me around and going to different places to put walls and stones because he had expected the townspeople to take a detour. Now all the paths they can take are blocked by us, so it will take them half a day to get to the side of Fleur.
Hearing Ali say this, all the doubts in my heart were solved, and I felt that it was all worth it. I happily turned on the communicator and reported back to Fleur.
"Sister Fleur, we've got it done here. ”
"Good. Old Mo, it's time to make a big move. ”
"Yes, Captain. Lao Xu, do you have a problem over there?"
"No problem. ”
I had time to turn my head to see how the three of them were doing. At this time, Fluff is still in the air and wrestling with laziness, and her movements are more flexible and aggressive, as if she is actively attracting lazy attention. And Mo Qingyan and Lao Xu didn't know where to hide, and they were nowhere to be found, and the situation didn't seem to be very optimistic.
Laziness is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he soon loses patience with the harassment of Fleur like a fly. He shouted angrily at Fleur.
"Fly in the way! Sister Fu! I advise you to stop early! I don't have the heart to play with you here!"
Immediately afterward, he first raised his hands high, then pulled them into his arms with all his might, and made a gesture of crossing his hands over his chest. In an instant, the building standing in the middle of the town spewed out a giant box and flew towards the lazy. When it was close to laziness, cracks appeared in the box, and these cracks opened quickly. The entire box unfolds in the air, turning into a giant mech.
The mecha was about three people tall, its entire body was gray-black, and every part of its body was a metal structure, with an oval mechanical head on top of the mecha and a pair of red evil eyes. Lazy didn't step into the mech, but waved his hand and pointed at Fleur flying in the air, and the mecha quickly rushed towards Fleur.
Although that mecha was huge, it was not bulky at all, but extremely flexible, and its speed was not bad at all compared to those lasers. Seeing this, Fleur couldn't help but sigh "Oh no", and quickly escaped from the mecha's capture range, her speed must be faster than just now. Lao Xu asked through the communicator.
"Captain, I'll come and help you!"
"No, I'm fine, this thing won't catch me for a while. ”
"Mo Qingyan, have you done it over there?" asked Lao Xu anxiously.
"When is it time for you to ask me. I've been well for a long time. ”
"Okay, you two wait, I can't pull out right now, I'll go over as soon as I get out. Fleur commanded.
"Need fire cover?"
"No, don't startle the snake. ”
I could tell from the communicator that they seemed to be plotting something big, what were they doing? Where were Lao Xu and Mo Qingyan? Just when my head was full of doubts, I turned my head to see that Ali was gone, and I whispered in panic.
"Ali, Ali, where are you going?"
"Hey~"
"Who?!"
"It's me. ”
"You!!"
