Chapter 2: The Iron Desert
The sky was getting dark, but this huge team did not stop, but continued to move forward, which couldn't help but make Qin Feng a little worried, after all, he had also survived in the wild for two nights in this world, once it was dark, the climate in this black desert would become extremely cold, and the climate would also become extremely violent.
On the first night he woke up, he saw a large black cloud flickering with purple thunder and lightning and bursting flames falling from the sky from a distance, if it was just an anomaly in the natural climate, it was not enough to surprise Qin Feng, who had long been accustomed to fighting with the sea, after that large storm cloud descended on the ground, it then sent out an astonishing surface explosion, so that he was also affected by a huge shock wave dozens of kilometers away.
What's even more strange is that the origin of the huge shock wave that Qin Feng felt, he couldn't see any explosion-like scenes during the whole process, and the area swept by the black clouds on that side didn't have any sight that could be observed visually except for the terrifying roar, which was what made him feel afraid!
He glanced at Xiao Tao, who was holding a shabby thin book on the side, for himself, this is a ready-made living encyclopedia, and his vigilance is quite high, but we are also serious people, so we can always communicate well...... Hey!
Glancing at the printing style on the book, it was not too unexpected, it was some kind of Chinese character that had never seen a font, even with a guess, this was not too dyslexic for him, he had not been able to communicate well with this little guy just now, but this book allowed him to find a topic.
"Xiao Tao, is this the control manual of the mecha?" Qin Feng pointed to the thin instruction manual and asked with a smile.
"Mecha?" The little doll is obviously not familiar with this term, but immediately understood the meaning, Chinese is born with a strong ability to derive, just from the literal is not difficult to understand, and this is obviously the topic he is interested in, and the topic that Qin Feng provoked, is no longer the earlier look of rejection, slightly closed the booklet, turned his head sideways and asked: "This iron chariot, your name there is called mecha?" ”
In the parallel space where Qin Feng is located, although the technology is extremely advanced, the Gundam thing is still only something that exists in the state of concept, after all, this thing is technically speaking, some conceptual mecha weapons have appeared in his time, but compared to the large and vulnerable individuals, the more exquisite individual intelligent armor has obvious advantages.
What's more, compared with the more offensive Blue Star weapon system, judging from the perspective of other soldiers, in addition to being cool, mecha weapons have no obvious advantages over traditional heavy weapons, not to mention cheap and high-quality individual intelligent armor.
In his philosophy, this thing exists more in cool movies and TV shows than in the real world...... He immediately shook his head thoughtfully and slightly, very naturally concealing his lack of knowledge in this area, and said with a smile: "Yes, where I used to live, I saw some much more beautiful iron chariot brochures than this, and they all called them mecha ......."
Speaking of which, he picked up the pencil that Xiao Tao put aside, and sketched a few cool deformed mecha patterns of the blue galaxy on a piece of waste paper, which was called "the iron chariot propaganda poster where he lives".
Compared to the rugged and unaesthetic size of the Iron Chariot that was patrolling the darkness around the team at the moment, the Gundam shape, with its streamlined shell and delicate weapon shape, was completely instantaneous, at least in appearance...... After all, he is still a teenager, and he has no resistance to this kind of thing!
This piece of waste paper arrived in Xiao Tao's hand, this little guy sighed, carefully observed it, and put it into his pocket without hesitation, then turned his head and said a little depressed, "Brother Qin, I have never left Enxi's territory, and I have never seen such a delicate iron chariot here, do you live in Beiting?" ”
Haha, this little guy directly changed his name to brother, it seems that the ideological work has been done! Qin Feng snickered in his stomach, but his expression did not fluctuate...... The main thing is to think about the amount of information is relatively large!
North Courtyard ...... Qin Fenggui obviously doesn't know anything about this place name, so let's write it down first, this is undoubtedly his biggest weakness now, he can be said to have no understanding of this strange world, but if he doesn't have knowledge, he will be able to hide it...... He immediately pulled around, and soon fooled the iron chariot control manual in Xiao Tao's hand and studied it together.
Xiao Tao is obviously not qualified to drive this kind of iron chariot called NEO311 in the manual, and, as Qin Feng saw before, this kind of iron chariot that looks amazingly heavy requires 4 personnel to control, and the brochure that Xiao Tao reads is mainly just an instruction manual for one of the weapon holders, except for a brief introduction.
But it was this simple manual, but Qin Feng immediately saw a lot of information about this new world, with the Blue Star armament technology he knew, this model Mi1644 electromagnetic four-barreled revolver machine gun is already very BT, with 200mm, 150mm two large calibers and a high rate of fire of 12 rounds per second, and equipped with A and B ammunition, respectively, with high kinetic energy, high armor-piercing effects......
This thing is placed in Qin Feng's Blue Star Fleet, the caliber is also the power of a small ship's gun, but here it is only used as the firepower of the caravan guard, he had also observed the barrel of the iron chariot exposed outside, and now when he saw the specific instructions, he was still a little shocked, and what shocked him even more was actually the introduction of the weight of the iron chariot.
The total weight of this NEO311 iron chariot is nearly 370 tons, which is almost the weight of a small gunboat of the Blue Star Fleet, and before Qin Feng saw that there were at least seven or eight iron chariots around the caravan, and they moved very dexterously, but he didn't expect the tonnage to be so amazing, which caused him to speculate more...... After all, the power required to drive a gunboat of several hundred tons in the water is obviously much smaller than driving a mecha of this tonnage on land!
Qin Feng didn't reveal too much about these questions, and he only roughly flipped through the booklet and returned it to Xiao Tao, as for the content of the booklet, it had been quickly scanned into the tactical robot, and some key words were quickly extracted - Origin: Vilia Empire, Core Machine: EM117, Energy Level: Tir Level 2......
These keywords can be said to be completely unfamiliar to him, but from the literal meaning, there is no doubt that they are important information, it seems that his cognition of this new world can be described as knowing nothing, Qin Feng smiled and glanced at Xiao Tao next to him, this is a small knowledge base that needs to be excavated urgently!
"Xiao Tao, how long have you been following the caravan? What are some of the best places you've visited? Qin Feng began to divert the topic, ready to learn about the mysterious world around him.
Xiao Tao obviously let down his initial vigilance after getting Qin Feng's promise that he would draw more Gundam patterns for him, after all, the current topic does not involve any secrets at all, but there is a slight sense of pain between the words, "Brother Qin, I am taking over from my father, and I have just arrived in the caravan for less than four months, and he can't continue to serve as a guard because of his injury......"
Rumble...... Prosperous...... Bang bang ...... Bang bang ......
Suddenly, a loud noise interrupted the chat between Qin Feng and Xiao Tao, and the locomotive they were riding on also emitted a series of piercing metal friction sounds almost at the same time, and then stopped suddenly.
"Something happened in front...... "Without waiting for Qin Feng to ask, Xiao Tao had already jumped up and said, and immediately ran to the car door, Qin Feng naturally would not sit and wait in the car, anyway, before the old man Liu asked him to follow Xiao Tao, so he also immediately followed, however, he also noticed that the other passengers in the car obviously did not mean to run out to see the excitement at all.
Outside, the entire convoy had stopped, but there was no other special move, dozens of large locomotives still maintained the formation of trailing back and forth, however, behind each locomotive, there were people with weapons in their hands who got off the car one after another to check, Qin Feng raised his eyes to look around, a strange halo lit up on several iron chariots on the periphery, and began to approach the convoy from a distance, and the other 3 iron chariots left the team at full speed, billowing black smoke came out from the back of the fuselage, and rushed forward.
The previous sound was a few large flares rising in the direction of the team, and he deduced that it should be a warning from the outpost scout, and the scene of the desert in the distance was unobstructed under the dazzling light......
A strange scene, so that Qin Feng, who followed Xiao Tao to climb to the top of the locomotive at this moment, was also taken aback, under the illumination of those giant signal flares, a few kilometers in front of the convoy, a large piece of locomotive wreckage lodging horizontally, some locomotives were still emitting wisps of black smoke, and from time to time a flame was released, and on the periphery, the lower half of the body of the two iron chariots that were cut off by the waist maintained a standing posture, while the upper half of the body was nowhere to be seen.
Xiao Tao took out a square box of binoculars and looked into the distance, Qin Feng noticed that the little guy was a little overexcited, and his body seemed to tremble slightly, and then, he heard the little guy muttering in a low voice: "Sand bandit......"
Sand Bandits...... It's a good name, but it's a good novice quest...... Qin Feng muttered self-deprecatingly, but ...... Calling this name in this metal desert is definitely synonymous with danger, Qin Feng immediately looked around.
However, because the tactical robot is not convenient to cast at the moment, just by relying on his eyesight, at a glance, it is obvious that he has no notice, but the tragic situation in front of him and the loose formation of the convoy at this moment made him immediately have a huge sense of crisis!
Without waiting for Qin Feng to ask a question, Xiao Tao unexpectedly immediately put away the telescope and quickly climbed off the locomotive, he had to follow immediately, but he didn't forget to ask vaguely: "Xiao Tao, is this kind of thing often happening in the desert here?" ”
"Yes! These bastards have a lot of activities this year! Xiao Tao didn't reply, but he replied quickly, and his tone was a little excited between the words, and he also burst into foul language...... This made Qin Feng a little surprised, when he chatted with this little guy before, he could see that the little guy was still quite polite.
"Xiao Tao, go to the reserve team to gather!" Without waiting for Qin Feng to ask, several big men in half-body armor had already run quickly, and one of the black-faced bald men pointed to the right side of the convoy and shouted loudly, it was the big man surnamed Sun who he had met before, he saw Qin Feng also nodded politely, and quickly ran to the front of the convoy.
It turned out that Xiao Tao was also a member of the convoy reserves, Qin Feng turned his brain, and roughly figured out his role, obviously he would also be arranged to be on standby in the reserve team for a while, after all, the real main force should be those large iron chariots, and on the ground were armed men surnamed Sun Dahan wearing infantry armor...... It looks like the convoy in Willow Leaf City also looks a little different.
Following Xiao Tao towards the back of the convoy, Qin Feng naturally did not forget the issue he was most concerned about, "Xiao Tao, the reserve team will also participate in the defense......
As soon as he spoke, the tactical robot that had been in a dormant state of storage suddenly activated, and a series of red warnings had been displayed on his retina, and at the same time, the hologram showed that a target in the airspace on the right side that was assessed as extremely dangerous was approaching rapidly, which made Qin Feng involuntarily look towards the right front.
Without any foreseeable circumstances at all, a dazzling light curtain suddenly appeared in the dark night, and in an instant the light curtain had penetrated a giant locomotive, and then, the giant locomotive collapsed like a dough bombarded by a giant hammer, but the next moment it seemed to encounter a huge reaction, and it suddenly rose into the air again, and disintegrated in the air......
