Chapter 2177: Exploring the Trail of Sha Lan (15)

Meanwhile, in Cairo, Egypt, the Cairo Hotel is in the underground arena.

The Dark American Football match has just begun, and this time the Sphinx will face off against the Germanic Blackhawks.

"What about androids...... As soon as the camp was set up for the start of the game, the captain Shiloma looked thoughtfully at the group of opponents opposite.

The players on the opposite side are all artificial people, each of them is a half-human and half-mechanical structure composed of a metal skeleton with high hardness and toughness, and they are only wearing jerseys and the lightest and simplest plastic protective gear------ maybe the defensive power of the plastic protective gear is not as high as their own metal skeleton.

The reason why they are still half-human is that the heads of these androids actually have a biological brain------ or at least they appear.

Beneath a more pretentious soccer helmet was the metal protected artificial man's mind. The outer layer of the brain is protected by a special reinforced alloy, and the inner layer is the human brain with a fluorescent green culture medium contained in tempered bulletproof glass.

At present, no one can conclude that these are really "human brains", and no one can conclude that there is really a human soul in this brain. But the other party at least prepared a set of outfits like this, posing as if "someone is really manipulating these artificial metal skeletons".

In this case, the cyborgs with their brains are judged to be "highly modified cyborids", and as such, they are allowed to play in accordance with the rules of the game (those who look like golems or robots are not allowed to play).

The rules of the game in Dark American Football are so lenient that the artificial humans in this appearance take advantage of the loopholes in the rules, and the American Football Association has nothing to do with them.

Leave that at that. Since the opponent is the player who played the game, he must be treated as an official player, nothing more. Shiloma pondered.

Before this, the Sphinx team had already crossed countless difficulties and tests, and had fought against them against all kinds of strange creatures------ giants, elves, modified people, and even monsters who had been transformed into monsters with special drugs. They have dealt with these countless difficult opponents one by one, and now they are facing nothing more than more difficult ones, I don't know if I'm tired or hurt, and my physical strength is stronger than ordinary people.

------ no big deal.

Strength is not an absolute factor in the game, and he is about to prove it to this group of androids.

The game begins. The referee tosses a coin.

"Positive. "Then I'll pick the opposite. The captains of both sides shouted while the coins were still floating in the air. Unexpectedly, the captain of the opponent's mechanical android team actually emitted a rather decent human voice------ although there was a slight electric sound in the voice.

The coin fell into the referee's hand and was heads. Shiloma guessed correctly, it was the Sphinx team who attacked first.

The ball was handed to the Germanic Black Eagles, who kicked the ball to start the game. And the Sphinx team is also in a position and ready to attack.

Kickoff!

Sou!------

"What?!------" Mutter startled. The momentum of the opponent is simply terrifying, kicking the football like a cannonball with amazing kicking force, and the ball flies out twenty or thirty yards in an instant! The frightened cat-man boy rushes out in pursuit, and as the outfield catcher, he must catch the ball before it goes deep into their position, so that the Sphinx can start their offensive phase! But the speed of the ball is terrifying, the castration is really amazing, and the kicks of those androids with full metal skeletons are amazing, because they are not kicking the ball with the muscles of creatures, but with hydraulic engines powered by electromagnetism!

Of course, human physical strength and machinery are completely incomparable, but Mutter is unwilling to admit defeat, and rushes over with all his strength, and then jumps with all his might! As a "rubber man", the cat man boy also has amazing jumping ability when he is going all out, and he actually jumps into the air, almost catching up with the ball that is moving like a cannonball!

But it was still a long way off! his hand was not long enough to reach a ball three yards away!

Or not! Mutt threw his hands out and shook them hard! His arms stretched out in mid-air, just long enough to touch the ball! Normally he did this was a piece of cake, but in Dark American football, they were all wearing magic bracelets, and their abilities were sealed to a certain extent. Mutt stretched out his arms in such a desperate way that in fact, some of his muscles were torn in an unnatural state, which was quite painful!

But he acted so desperately, and the reward was relatively high, he finally caught the ball tightly before it flew away, hugged it to his chest, and landed!

"Hmm!" the cat-man boy in severe pain in his arms let out a mournful cry and rolled two yards on the grass of the pitch before stopping. But his sacrifice was very "worthwhile", ------ he was supposed to be kicked away and pressed to the bottom line of the Sphinx position, a very threatening kick-off, but he stopped it, although the Sphynx team started to attack very far back (starting from 26 yards from the bottom line of the position, and the whole football field is 120 yards long, which means they have to hold the ball and advance 94 yards to touch down!), but the absolutely disadvantageous situation of always being pressed to start the game is better!

"Are you alright?" Thinking that Mutter would be seriously injured, Shiloma even called a medical team to check on the cat-man boy's condition.

"Uh. However, the cat-man boy slowly got up from the ground, and his arms, which were supposed to be in severe pain due to muscle tears, gradually stopped hurting.

"Like...... Are you alright?" even Mutter himself couldn't help but snort in confusion. He also thought that his arms were going to be wasted and he couldn't play this game. But the injuries were far less severe than he had imagined. Or is it ...... the initial intense pain and trauma to be repaired in a short period of time?

Is this possible? Mutter knows that he doesn't have the ability to heal himself like Phileos the Leopard Man. So the one who was "seriously injured" just now was just his delusion?

"Well, he didn't have any injuries to his bones or ligaments and he was able to play. The medical staff asserted after fiddling back and forth with Mutter's arms.

"Since you say so. Captain Shiloma had no opinion. If it was in the stadium of another country, it was the medical team of other countries who came to the rescue, and Shiloma would not be so relieved. But now this is the home of the Sphinx, and even the medical team members who rushed to the rescue are all resident medical personnel in this underground arena. And these medical personnel Shiloma knew all of them, and he also trusted the professional judgment of the other party.

Maybe it was really just a delusion, but Mutter's injuries weren't as serious as they seemed. The arm did not swell, and there was no pain or discomfort when the medical staff lifted the joint back and forth. Anyway, don't worry about it for now. With some doubts, they returned to their positions and assumed an offensive posture.

"It's a long way to push. When the ball was handed to center Gusta, the Tiger Man said.

"The game is still long, let's see what tricks those robots can play. Quarterback Shiloma grinned. It seems that he still has full confidence that he can defeat this android army that crushes the Sphinx team in all aspects with stratagem.

Albert was on the sidelines, sitting on the cold bench and watching everything on the field. After the medical staff's hot and cold compresses, his muscle pain improved a lot. Even though he was annoyed by a few people walking back and forth with ice packs and hot towels, he tried to concentrate on watching the game. Do androids have weaknesses? Although Shiloma said so, Albert didn't see a problem at all. Where did these metal skeleton iron King Kong get their weakness? From physical strength to speed to explosiveness, they crush the orcs of the Sphinx team in every aspect, right?

If there is a "weakness", it is that the movements of these androids are a little stiff. How to describe it? After each movement, there is a pause of about a tenth of a second before moving on to the next action. It's like a robot, running a program once to make the first response, and then having to wait for the program to finish before running the next one. Although this feeling of "stiffness" can be confirmed with the naked eye, in fact their movements are very fluid, and the "stiffness" between each movement for a tenth of a second does not seem to have any effect on the game.

A cyborg player was chasing the Sphinx's running back who was running with the ball, and was chasing him at lightning speed. The Leopardman runback couldn't match the speed of the android, and he was easily overtaken. Then the Germanic Blackhawks' android defender paused for a tenth of a second and began to stretch the ball. The Sphinx's running back dodged and dodged the ball before the opposing defender touched the ball with his hand. However, the reaction speed of the android side is still very amazing, and when he saw the leopard man running back dodging, he also paused for only a tenth of a second, and immediately followed up with a side dodge and stretched the ball again. As a result, the leopard running back, who had been forced to have no way out, could only hold the ball and pounce on the ground, and stopped the run before the ball was snatched away. The android paused for another tenth of a second, and what seemed to be the intention to continue extending the ball stopped before making such a foul move.

"First gear!Sandstorm Sphinx, three yards forward!" the referee announced with a whistle.

The situation is not rosy. The opposition was so fast and defended so tightly that the Sphinx players fought hard to get three yards forward. And the offensive and defensive lines over there also seemed to be suppressed by the opposing army's android army, and the human wall composed of orcs was almost torn down. If the running back on this side does not fall to the ground so quickly to stop the run, the offensive and defensive lines may even collapse first.

Not good. Man is not allowed to fight with the machine. It was only then that Albert realized the horror of the androids. These androids are almost invincible, they are machines after all, and they are much more powerful than humans in terms of performance. If this continues, the Sphinx may not even be able to score a successful touchdown------ can this hard-fought game really be won?
