Chapter Thirty-Nine: Finishing the Work
Seeing the ground-piercing armor shells that were falling to the ground, several of the Barbatos also immediately switched out of their long-range weapons and fired at the ground-piercing armor.
A high-energy ion beam and two *** flew from a high place, and at the end of the flight trajectory was this falling ground-piercing armor sheet.
Xuanji didn't mean to dodge, but adjusted the float 2 in front of her, and in an instant, an ion barrier began to unfold in the center of the float.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! After three sounds, the three attacks that rushed through the ground armor bullets were all blocked by Float 2.
Seeing this, these Barbatos were also shocked, if the Rhythm Man was in front of them like this, no long-range weapon would be able to get the ground-piercing armor projectile that was falling.
Moreover, the ground-piercing armor projectile fell very quickly, and it would take another second to reach the ground, so they had only one last resort, which was to get close to the ground-piercing armor bullet and smash it to pieces.
However, Xuanji had already seen through their intentions, and before Barbatos could get closer, he casually switched to the electromagnetic railgun and fired a smoke and dust bomb, which detonated at zero distance.
Boom, smoke and dust rose in an instant, and the dense smoke and dust continued to spread rapidly to all sides, and soon, the smoke and dust that exploded blocked the sight of these Barbatos.
What's more, Barbatos did not dare to directly cross the smoke, because the smoke was the weak point of Barbatos's butterfly wings, and the metal particles in the smoke and dust could cause the butterfly wings to short-circuit.
After hesitating, the last chance was fleeting, and the ground-piercing armor projectile reached the ground and pierced directly into the ground.
After activating the stellar state and the neural linkage system, the Rhythm's mobility ability was greatly improved, and in an instant, it broke through the edge of the smoke and flew out of it.
Seeing that the ground-piercing armor shells began to pierce the ground, Xuanji no longer had any worries, and she could finally let go of her hands and feet.
It's just that Xuanji's eyes are not on these six Barbatos, but on the last factory in a corner of the ground in the distance.
It had been two minutes and thirty seconds since Xuanji had directly burst into the smelting factory from a high altitude, and from the moment Xuanji burst in, the clouds had already learned the news here.
So from that moment on, there were already a large number of support troops that were rapidly moving closer to this side, so it was not a good choice to fight in love.
Once dragged by these six Barbatos, Xuanji will face a big encirclement, and it is good to deal with a few Barbatos, if the number increases, she will be in danger.
Although the Rhythmian is inferior to Barbatos in terms of explosive power, he is superior to Barbatos in agility and speed.
After seeing the Rhythmians break through the smoke and dust, the six Barbatos swarmed up, the Rhythmians are the henchmen of the clouds, since they can't stop the Rhythmians from demolishing this smelting plant, if they can work together to hold the Rhythmians and wait for the support troops to come to encircle and annihilate the Rhythms, then the situation of these six Barbatos will not be too ugly.
If you can lose only one smelter and kill the only henchman, this is a good deal for the cloud.
Looking at the swarming Barbatos, Xuanji looked disdainful, switched out of the high-energy ion cannon and began to aim at the last factory.
A crimson reticle reappeared on Xuanji's retina, and she knew that the Rhythmians were maneuvering faster, and as long as she was moving at maximum maneuvering power, these Barbatos couldn't get close to her.
The turquoise ion wake from the ion thruster vent behind the Beater suddenly widened and lengthened, and a sonic boom swept away, flying towards the sky at high speed.
The bolt of the high-energy ion cannon was pushed again, and a half-charred main capacitor bounced out of the bomb thrower, and a new main capacitor was pushed into the barrel again.
Although these Barbatos can't get close to the melee range of the Rhythmian, they are only slightly slower than the Rhythmowe, and they can't get close but can't shake off.
Two high-energy ion beams burst in, and a dense swarm of penetrating bombs swarmed, these Barbatos tried to contain the Rhythmians through fire suppression, if they could suppress the Rhythmians, after the reinforcements arrived, they could easily take out the Rhythmians.
After all, no matter how strong the rhythmic is, there is only one, and it will be outnumbered after all.
After the crimson crosshair was aimed at the last factory on the ground, Xuanji pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Boom, a huge crimson pillar of light burst down from the sky, instantly submerging the plant, the huge energy contained in the pillar of light melted the entire plant, after the pillar of light, the position of the plant turned into a pool of slowly boiling bright red molten slurry.
'Groover: Floater 2, ion barrier maximum power unfolded. A message appeared on Xuanji's retina.
Then, the float on the right side of the Rhythm Rider once again blocked behind the Rhythm Charmer, and an ion barrier about a meter in diameter suddenly unfolded, and this ion barrier appeared to be larger than the normal size barrier.
A layer of flickering static electricity is stirred around the ion barrier, and the area of the electrostatic layer looks large, and the electrostatic layer contains a huge amount of ionization energy, and even makes a clattering sound when it rubs against the air.
As soon as the barrier was deployed, there was a continuous rumbling sound, and two high-energy ion beams and dense penetrating bullets smashed into the ion barrier, but the ion barrier was still completely blocked.
'Rhythm: Float 2, power reserves depleted. A message appeared on Xuanji's retina.
The power reserve of floater 2 can only fully release the maximum power ion barrier once, so it is already out of power.
The shape of floater 2 has changed, the two optical wings spread out on both sides have begun to close, the annular metal ring that has spread out in the center has also shrunk back, and the turquoise ion wake sprayed from the tail has also been reduced to a silvery-white color, and it looks like it is really out of power.
Float2 reverts to an oval, egg-shaped shape and returns to the right side of the Rhythmocaus's waist.
"The work is done, you can slip away, it's been a long time, my daughter should be hungry, go back to feed." Xuanji muttered to herself.
Looking at the three pools of molten slurry on the ground, as well as the ground-piercing armor sheet that was burrowing into the ground, Xuanji also yawned, and she was ready to escape.
However, the six Barbatos did not intend to let her go, and fired a bunch of dense penetrating bullets at Xuanji, after all, as long as the six of them could hold off the Rhythm and wait for the reinforcements to arrive, the mission would be completed.
"Let's go, let's go, goodbye big butterflies." Xuanji smiled and muttered to herself.
Xuanji casually retrieved the high-energy ion cannon and another float, and then swept away into the sky.
Unrivaled agility of maneuvering, the Rhythmian just twisted his body casually, and the high-energy ion beams and dense penetrating bullets almost touched the Rhythmian, brushing the edge and passing around the Rhythmian.
'Rhythm: The ionization camouflage system is on. A message appeared on Xuanji's retina.
In an instant, a thin layer of static electricity appeared on the surface of the Rhythmian's combat armor, and then the Rhythmian vanished out of thin air.
Then there was a tremor on the ground, as if the source of the tremor was deep, but only one tremor.
A burst of rock debris and black smoke burst out of the hole through which the ground-piercing armor projectile had pierced, and this scene was the result of the explosion of the ground-piercing armor projectile penetrating into the refining room seventy meters underground.
Although the six Barbatos desperately fired at the Rhythmian, they could not hurt the Rhythmian in the slightest, and could only detect the Rhythmian through the thermal radar and quickly flew above the clouds.
If Xuanji hides in the clouds, these Barbatos will not be able to pursue again, and this is also Barbatos' weakness.
Xuanji is very smart, she knows the propulsion principle of the butterfly wings behind Barbatos, and any non-insulating disturbance will interfere with the release of ionic crystals due to the exposure of the propulsion medium.
It is precisely for this reason that the metal particles scattered by the explosion of the soot bomb will cause a short circuit in the butterfly wings, and the cloud crest contains a large amount of water vapor, which means that there is a huge amount of water molecules in the cloud crest.
If Barbatos forces his way into the clouds, the water molecules will come into contact with the butterfly wing, causing it to short-circuit.
This is the fatal weakness of Barbatos, there is no insulation ability, any non-insulating disturbance will affect the output of the butterfly wing behind it, and even a short circuit will occur.
So Barbatos could not fight not only in the smoke and dust, but also in the rain, not even in the slightly humid clouds.
However, according to intelligence, Barbatos seems to be being redesigned and improved, and the new generation of Barbatos may solve this problem after mass production.
This is not good news, after all, there are only two Rhythms, and if the number and combat effectiveness of the new generation of Barbatos are significantly improved, they will not be able to make much of a storm with just two Rhythms.
After the cloud took control of the world, the world fell into darkness, the people were controlled by intelligent robots, and the military was controlled by combat clones and combat armor, and even all military facilities were controlled by cyber viruses, and the source of all this was the cloud.
Although the cloud server has been up for more than two months, the mastermind behind it has not appeared for a long time, as if it has never existed.
In the aftermath of this human crisis, the remnants of the people who were not controlled by the clouds have reunited to resolve the crisis.
Fritz was the first to spot the signs of the crisis, and he was a permanent member of the Joint Powers Council, and more importantly, Fritz was the first person he wanted to get rid of after Evans' coup d'état.
Therefore, whether it is the people who have been controlled by the clouds and lost their freedom, or the remnants of those who have become resisters, they regard Fritz as the leader to resolve this human crisis, and even the next savior.
Although Evans was killed in the Supreme Union Building, the coup d'état was not lifted, and even more horrific plots began to surface, but all of this continued, and no one could stop it, and there was no way to stop it.
Even now, no one knows what the masterminds are trying to get, but the indications show that what the masterminds need is not power and resources, which is very puzzling.
If the mastermind behind the scenes doesn't want power and resources, no one knows the answer to this question.
Fritz has been speculating that there is a bigger conspiracy behind this, and even more dangerous existence, but until now, he has not thought of what the mastermind is going to do.
This cloud crisis is different from the catastrophe more than 60 years ago, this time it only controlled the people, did not exterminate the people as during the catastrophe, did not destroy any civilian facilities, but only restricted the freedom of movement of everyone.
With a piercing sonic boom, the Rhythmians had already hid in the clouds, and the six Barbatos who had caught up did not dare to enter the clouds, but could only watch the Rhythmians slip under their noses.
