Chapter 19 Inside Jinling City
It was a human bone that had been baked black, and the difference was that the upper body of this bone was also covered with a layer of armor of a strange style, although it had been burned so that it could not see the original color, but when Lu Yu took out the dagger and pierced the armor, he found that it could not be pierced at all.

"It's strange that the heat didn't affect the performance at all." Lu Yu stabbed a few more times curiously.
"What's even stranger is that some people still wear armor these days." The other soldier was visibly more thoughtful, and he picked up the charred black iron that was twisted together on the side, "What is this?" ”
"That's a gun, that's a knife." Lu Yu stood up, holding a slightly curved long knife in his hand, "It's quite heavy!" ”
"Katana! This can't be a spy for the little devils, right? One soldier exclaimed exaggeratedly.
"It's hard to say, anyway, call the helicopter first." Lu Yu felt that he was simply too lucky, these things were much more valuable than completing the task.
He connected to the company's internal communication, and was about to tell everyone about this astonishing discovery, but his mind was dizzy by the cacophony of harsh words that instantly permeated him.
"Team 7! Get ready to take on the enemy! In front of Position 4, the swarm is 30 meters apart! Some of the insects have swept past the flanks of the defensive line, be careful to outflank them, and let them go if they can! Defend your position! ”
The entire squad led by Lu Yu was overwhelmed by the sudden emergency news. They turned to look towards the square, and saw that the soldiers who had been scattered in the square had gathered into a strong defensive line, with their backs facing the ruins of the building.
Not far to the southwest of the square, the houses trembled with the naked eye, and the helicopter searchlights in the sky were extremely conspicuous, and finally, a brown torrent appeared from the night.
The swarm! The Defeated Swarm!
The clusters of tanks arranged in a tight formation condensed into a steel wall with an indomitable momentum, forcing the blind swarm to flee in a hurry. If it had been hours ago, the Landing Company would have celebrated with excitement, but at this moment, they couldn't laugh anyway.
Because they are in the path of the swarm, and their mission is to prevent the swarm from destroying the precious research materials in the square as it retreats.
The rock composed of the crowd instantly swallowed out a dense tongue of fire, and the surging brown tide was divided into two tributaries along the arrow-like position, and in front of the rock, the tide rose higher and higher, and finally, the mountain of insect swarm corpses collapsed like a landslide under the impact of the follow-up insects, and the hungry arrow, composed of the soldiers of the landing company, was instantly crushed under the countless insect swarm corpses.
The line of defense crumbled, and most of the remaining soldiers retreated towards the ruins of the building as they opened fire, looking like a fish swimming hard in the tide from above, struggling to find a nest to protect itself.
The machine guns of the helicopters roaming over the square began to strafe the swarm before it reached the square, artificially diverting the swarm first. However, eleven heavy machine guns are just a drop in the ocean compared to the boundless sea of insects, and those who can see it are desperate just by looking at the number.
When the first wave of outlaw insect swarms were diverted by arrows, a large number of insects on the right desperately rushed towards the ruins of the shop where Lu Yu's team was located.
Everyone trembled in horror, and unless a miracle happened, they would never hide from the seemingly boundless sea of worms. The squad leader Lu Yu pushed the found corpses and weapons under a collapsed wall, and immediately set up the squad machine gun.
"Death both horizontally and vertically! The puppies fought their way out with Lao Tzu! Lu Yu yelled, and then pressed the trigger fiercely.
The 5.8 mm bullet rain frantically poured in front of the oncoming sea of insects, and the rest of the soldiers also trembled and picked up their guns, and the dense sound of shooting seemed to drown out the piercing squeak of the sea of insects for a moment.
However, a second later, the swarm ran over the entire area like a tsunami, and there was not a single gunshot.
Qin Feng had already woken up when the army had begun its tentative offensive.
A layer of pale green light, this was the first scene Qin Feng saw when he opened his eyes.
Before he could recover from his vague memory, a gravitational pull led him slowly towards the ground, and only then did he realize that he was floating.
The cold ground cleared his mind instantly.
Floating in front of him were the smooth, cold-toned nanosteel walls, the entire large room made entirely of milky metal, and the huge ventilation fan slowly rotated under the solid steel frame of several layers of mesh at his feet, and he turned back to see the magical device that had made him float earlier.
A huge triangular prism is supported on the ground by a low triangular bracket, the metallic luster of aluminum alloy makes it exude a strong sci-fi flavor, the three huge prisms erected are actually composed of three thick long test tube-like objects filled with light green liquid, and in the range of about three meters around the triangular prism, a thin film of light green light wraps itself and the triangular prism like a transparent cover from mid-air. Qin Feng's heart moved, he tried to look down from the interface of the red alert, and sure enough, a huge green cross was engraved on the top of the prism.
Qin Feng clearly remembered this scene, it was the fourth battle after the battle of the three major camps - Yuriko Gaiden.
"Is this the HRE Institute?" Qin Feng muttered to himself.
"This is the interior of the Imperial Base Car, Your Excellency, Commander." A quiet female voice rang out suddenly.
"Are you the computer system here?" Qin Feng asked.
"No, I'm a base car."
Qin Feng felt a little awkward inexplicably, but he didn't continue to investigate, he remembered the scene that had just happened, the picture of Dejia's tragic death in front of him.
"What about my soldiers?"
"They're dead." The female voice was calm, as if she didn't know the meaning of the word "killed" at all.
"Can we resurrect them?"
"I can't."
Taking a deep breath, Qin Feng slowly sat down on the spot, he needed time to calm his mood. The map displayed in the interface testified to the calm surrounding him, except for a lone and incomparably large base car crushed against a large area of collapsed house ruins, and the view of the base car encompassed the entire square, but he did not have the courage to look there again.
"Commander, the omnidirectional construction robotic arm was damaged while resisting an unknown shock wave, and the base vehicle needs to be repaired." The calm female voice brought Qin Feng back to his senses, and he couldn't help but think that he was still on the battlefield.
"What if you don't expand it?" Qin Feng asked.
"The base car will be temporarily returned to the system and can be repaired through funding points."
"Then let's go back." Qin Feng said, and suddenly he found something different, "Why did the base car move north?" The huge rut was clearly visible on the enlarged system interface, and Qin Feng estimated that it had traveled a distance of about two kilometers.
"In order to prevent the generation of subsequent shock waves, the base vehicle moved away from the direction of the shock wave on its own."
The rut had already been left, even if Qin Feng wanted to eliminate it, it was impossible, the mother worm had been destroyed, and the collapse of the insect swarm was not long after, and he had to leave before the army came. Just hope they don't overreact to this rut.
"The most important thing in troubled times is strength, and I don't need to cringe." Qin Feng silently thought that the departure of Takeda and Dejia had stimulated him a lot, he didn't want to reflect on what was wrong with his command, he only hated his lack of strength.
He asked himself if he would be a hero, he knew that he was just a lucky person among thousands of ordinary people, but luck also had a price, and at this moment he had a feeling of nothing.
In this environment, people crave a warm kind, not a powerful but cold machine.
Qin Feng checked his remaining funds, and there were 24,500, he first asked how much it would cost to repair the robotic arm of the base car, and after getting a reply of 20,000 points, he began to plan how to distribute the remaining funds.
In this world full of lone zergs, of course Qin Feng couldn't choose to walk, and the abandoned cars on the streets were just a pile of good-looking scrap metal without gasoline. In comparison, although the speed of the armed mining vehicle of the Shengyang Empire is a little slower, the double-barreled kinetic energy cannon that sticks out after turning the bucket can provide strong protection, and the amphibious performance alone is not comparable to that of ordinary vehicles.
"One last question." Qin Feng looked back and asked before leaving the base car, "What is the device that just made me float?" ”
"Meditation Fountain, specially equipped for the base vehicle crew, i.e. the commander. Its technology comes from the HRE Mind Research Center, which Dr. Shinji Shimada is in charge of. ”
"Oh." Qin Feng replied lightly, and then stepped out from an oval wall that suddenly expanded.
After a few seconds, the massive base vehicle, which had been like a supernatural beast, disappeared in an instant, as if it had appeared out of thin air, leaving behind a giant rut that would shock anyone.
At 7:50 a.m., the ground forces had completed their task of occupying the city, and the command center had been moved from the other side of the river to the ruins in the city center, where several tanks were acting as forklifts to clear the wreckage.
It was still a steel army green tent set up in the open air, only this time the front of the command post, which had been open, was covered with a thick soundproof canvas. Around the command post, a platoon of special forces was watching with great vigilance all the unusual noises around it.
In the tent where everyone thought it was the command post of the military region, there was not a single officer, only a dozen or so personnel in white coats who came and went nervously busy, and on the nameplate hanging on their chests, the words "National Nanoscience Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences" could be seen!
In the middle of the tent, on a white platform shrouded in a transparent glass frame, lay quietly flat on a charred black armor, and next to it, on a platform higher than new, a samurai sword as smooth as new was prominently displayed.
