Chapter 13: The Siege
After the mecha's mangled corpse melted away, a simple tombstone was erected on the ground, with the mechanic's number engraved on the tablet. The phantom of a young man floated on the tombstone like a ghost, staring at Ivan with an unhappy face:
"You're lucky this time! When I come back to life, I'll take revenge on you!"
"Hehe, I'm so scared. ”
He gestured his middle finger in the cockpit and left the barren meadow without looking back.
Ignoring the threat of the stalker, after leaving his first kill point, Evan also learned from his previous experience and stopped driving along the road with great fanfare. Instead, he burrowed in the grass and followed the rhythm of the wind, avoiding several waves of vicious crowds to reach the coordinates that David had given him.
It is a forest that stretches on a high slope, and as far as the eye can see, the trees grow lush and green, like a thick blanket spread between the mountains.
"Evan have you arrived?
There was a short 'beep' from the communicator, followed by David's hurried voice, faintly mixed with the roar of steel clashing.
"It's almost there, I'm near the woods. ”
"That's right, we collided with another squad, and you cooperate with us to eliminate them!"
"No problem!"
Ivan immediately agreed, and then plunged headlong into the woods, still communicating with each other, but they tacitly agreed not to speak.
The sunlight was blocked by the thick foliage, and only a faint dark halo shone from behind the dense foliage, like a faint star twinkling in the sky. The wind swayed high in the treetops, making a slow, slamming sound. The desert-like green leaves move overhead, setting off the quiet light and shadow, making everything look extremely calm.
“......”
He radiated his perception to its maximum extent and quietly approached his roommate's location.
The further you go into the woods, the more sparse the trees become. The sunlight is like wisps of golden sand, through the layers of branches and leaves, sprinkled on the grass, looming from side to side. The woods were silent, and the sound of steel clashing could be faintly heard. The thunderous pop has become subtle and soft, rustling through the thick needles of the evergreen, like the soles of shoes crushing soft branches.
"It's almost there!"
As Evan remained vigilant, he picked up speed, and the vision in front of him gradually widened, and the first thing that caught his eye was a crooked and slanted mine cave - the entrance of the cave looked like a slum house, about two stories high, and the dim light of the miner's lamp came through the deep hole.
At the entrance of the cave, two groups of people were fighting, and it was David, Marshall, and Muse who were guarding in front of the cave.
The other team consisted of five, three of whom were holding Marshall and Davy at bay, and the remaining two were facing the muse alone.
To Evan Even's surprise, the lonely little mare muse looked extremely fierce, and the two mechanical arms wielded a tiger, although it was a one-on-two situation, but it was able to gain the upper hand. If it weren't for the two-on-three side that still needed her to intervene from time to time, the two mechanics would have been defeated a long time ago.
Of the eight men in the engagement, seven were tracked individual mechs of the same model.
However, the Muse's outfit is slightly different, perhaps due to her centaur affiliation, with four slender counter-articulation mechanical arthropods underneath the mech. Just like an exoskeleton that grows on a leg, the lower leg and the metal hoof are connected by springs, making it easy to move and jump.
“......”
While observing the battle situation, he also labeled his opponent in his heart.
The three-on-two side is the one, two, and three, and the muses are the four and five.
"Kill one first!"
Evan first aimed the laser cannon at No. 5, because killing the first three would not break the deadlock, but if he killed No. 4 directly, the little mare could kill No. 5 in an instant with his free hands, and the tide of battle would be reversed in an instant.
......
"Annoying, annoying, annoying, really annoying!"
The two mechanical arms that Muse wielded vigorously, the heavy pincer-shaped metal arms like two sledgehammers, swept through the air and made a dull roar under her nimble manipulation, dragging the remnants of the road to condescendingly smash the opponent.
She has the flexibility of a special mech, coupled with the height advantage, which really makes the two opponents miserable.
However, the three-on-two side was one-sided, and in order to share the pressure of the muse, Marshall and David had already exhausted the energy of the laser cannon, and the next round of counterattack was enough to send them to parachute again.
"It's annoying!"
The little mare gritted her silver teeth in anger and frustrated left and right, but she never managed to break through the enemy blockade, and her teammates were already under one-sided shelling.
Just as her hooves were jumping wildly, a faint straight red line ran through it, and a mechanic on the opposite side suddenly let out a loud bang, and something exploded on his back. The armor on its back cracked and dissolved, and a huge cloud of steam completely enveloped it, and the exhaust hole on its back waist was no longer exhaust, but a messy flame!
Evan's blow directly destroyed his power plant - it was a valuable experience he gained after destroying his first enemy.
"Enemy attack!"
No. 5 reacted immediately, spotted the approaching red dot from the radar, and was intent on defending against the enemy, but was intercepted by a muse with a cute smile on his face.
Enemies No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 also stepped up their offensive at the same time, no longer deliberately saving the number of laser cannons, and seemed to plan to eliminate David and Marshall as soon as possible, and finally join hands with No. 5 to deal with Muse and Evan.
However, what these people did not expect was that the enemy attack was much more fierce than they had imagined.
Boom ——!
With one blow, Ivan pulled the power lever to the limit, and piloted the roaring mecha to leap out of the trees like a tiger, directly rushing out of a rushing white wave of air. Breaking through the steam that filled Four's body, he punched through his shattered armor and smashed the enemy into a tombstone in the blink of an eye.
"I'm dead?? sneak attack is despicable!I#@&**&!"
With the dissolving and dissipating broken light, the phantom of a short and fat boy floated out from the tombstone, as if he couldn't accept the fact that he was being seconded, and scolded very unqualifiedly.
As soon as this scolding came out, Noah harmonized into a messy noise, and after a while, even the noise disappeared, and only his mouth shape could be seen constantly changing - obviously, the unlucky child was banned.
After successfully killing the imaginary enemy Four, Evan slammed into Five, the heavy roar of the machine making him look like a raging beast. Taking advantage of the huge impact of the power, Ivan cleverly knocked over the Five from the side, and the reflection at the end of the metal arm cut a four-meter-long arc of light in the air, directly unloading its laser cannon.
The pincer-shaped metal claw pinched the laser cannon and dragged a series of sparks over Mech Five's shoulder, and the mechanic roared ferociously, but suddenly felt like he had lost his power...... It felt like someone had your spine broken and all the nerves were out of control.
