"Cold Star": Second Lieutenant Cortana
Zoomlion temporary mecha formation
The place of origin of the war, at a low altitude of 1230m
=============
A sky of colorful belts, countless mechs flying, constantly interspersed between various gaps. Its number is so large and its distribution is so dense, if you have to make a metaphor, it is like the sparrows in the sky that eliminated the four evils in the past, and people are dazzled to watch.
In between flights, melee weapons, including lightsabers, have been revealed, and many mechs are already slashing at each other, retreating from time to time to dodge and evade. Ranged energy weapons were also used, with the glow of the pulse cannon, particle cannon, and laser cannon flickering, even overshadowing the ribbons.
Since the energy domain field in the sky at this time was far less intense than the one that had erupted just now, these mechas, including those aircraft formations, were able to fly in it. But even then, there are problems with the operation of many systems.
"The war has begun."
In the cockpit of the We4 mecha on Gem Road, Cortana looked at the image on the surveyor and said calmly.
"Ah, from the very beginning when the EMP bomb was activated, both sides were already ready to shoot and had to be fired." T'Aquila's expression was unexpectedly solemn, and Ike would have been surprised if he was here. She operated the mech's console with one hand, her left arm still hanging down a little weakly, and she trembled from time to time.
"That's right." Cortana nodded involuntarily.
The situation now is such that the warships of both sides are so disturbed by strong energy that they are simply unable to conduct operations. In this case, Zoomlion first sent a large number of mecha groups and aircraft formations to try to quickly destroy the American warships in order to win the war immediately.
Unexpectedly, they underestimated the degree of interference in the energy domain field here, in this environment, all aircraft must be debugged to operate normally, and the time of debugging also gave the Star Alliance a chance to slow down.
As a result, the Star Alliance's mecha group and aircraft formation also assembled, which caused the previous confrontation between the two sides.
And now, the war has started in full swing, although it is not as spectacular as the scene of the 200 Red Devils explosion just now, but it is also a little surprising to Cortana and Taquila, who have a certain amount of experience, and at the same time there is no certainty in their hearts.
In the environment where so many mechs are fighting each other, it is difficult to survive alone, not to mention that they have to raid some of the mecha groups of the Star Alliance.
"So where is our breakthrough, have you found it, Taquila?" Cortana looked up and asked her partner beside her.
"Not yet." T'Aquila shook her head slightly, a wry smile on her face, "It's really hard to be the foreman this time, we have a great responsibility." ”
The so-called foreman, as the name suggests, is one or several mecha leading the way in the mecha group, which is a bit similar to the navigation machine, except that the foreman of the mecha not only has to lead the way, but also conducts real-time strategic deployment and issues instructions to all members of the entire mecha group. To put it bluntly, that is, the temporary commander-in-chief who leads the entire mecha group, this is the responsibility entrusted to them by Lieutenant Colonel Petrov.
"Buzz Buzz" 62 mechs piloted by the soldiers of the China Alliance flew in the air at a low speed of 1.5 sound, flashing layers of faint sonic booms.
They were flying towards the area where the mechs were engaged, and it would take about a minute to get there. But even though they were a little far away, the surveyor had already seen a "high energy ahead" alarm, and subtitles kept flashing to remind them not to approach forward.
"Oh~ That's really annoying." Taquila was so fed up by the English subtitles that kept flashing in front of her that she simply turned off the warning system. In any case, in this area where energy interference is very serious, the so-called early warning will not be able to detect the approaching low-energy (relative to the total energy of the war zone) danger at all.
"It is expected to reach the edge of the battlefield in 20 seconds." Takquila glanced at the data on the surveyor, and she manipulated the console with one hand, "Hey, I've found a breakthrough. ”
As she moved, a vague-looking mecha distribution map appeared on the screen, and various data were listed in it, which was dazzling to see.
Cortana: "Looks like we won't have to do it later." ”
"Alright, now send these images to all the members."
"Wait a minute."
"How?"
"Wait until you fly closer before sending it, the current image is still too blurry and easy to cause confusion."
"Okay then." T'Aquila tried to shrug her shoulders, but it hurt her left arm, and she couldn't help but grin in pain again.
After a few more seconds, she single-handedly marked the coordinate breakout site in the sky, and sent it to all the members.
"The coordinates you marked have been received." An electronic prompt sounded, and then a combination of numbers and letters flashed on the screen, these are the numbers of the mechas, representing each member of the 62 mecha formation.
"Alright, just behind us." T'Aquila shouted into the liaison, knowing that the 210 people in the channel were listening to her orders, even though some were not crew members.
"Turn on the identification device, so that the Covenant mech's surveyor shows that we are allies, and they will not use the naked eye or call up the image to identify the mech." Tuckquila commanded, as her right hand rose and landed on an inconspicuous horizontal line.
She pinched the switch with three slender fingers, then jerked horizontally.
"Beep" and "System recognition is on", and all the surrounding mecha cabs are also the same prompt sound.
They flew to the war zone in a mecha, less than 1 km from the edge of the battlefield.
Countless lasers and lightsabers continued to shine in front of them, and the "boom" was accompanied by firelight, and from time to time the mecha was hit by a particle cannon or a long titanium alloy knife, and fell into the explosion.
The battle is very fierce, and this is only the beginning of this mecha war.
Just as the We4 mecha on the Gem Road was advancing according to the predetermined route and was about to enter that "breakthrough", several thick column-shaped pillars of light suddenly burst out.
The two of them were already in danger, but who Cortana was, she calmly manipulated the Jewel Road mecha to dodge, and then directly tactically evaded, dodging those high-powered plasma cannons.
"Hey, that's how they greeted us?" T'Aquila grinned a little exaggeratedly, she called up the surveyor, and it was a few Zoomlion long-range attack mechs that fired at them just now.
Since they are disguised as Star Alliance mechas, they are naturally easy to be attacked by the Zhonglian mechas, and they can't fight back, which has to be said to be very helpless. But compared to the big things they have to do next, this helplessness is nothing at all.
"We've been targeted by our own mechs." T'Aquila warned everyone, "Accelerate out of this area immediately, but fly along the edge of the battlefield, this is our battle plan." ”
"Roger." *n
With a response, the formation of 62 Covenant mechs almost scattered in all directions, flying towards various different realms, but their destinations were in the same direction.
"The other party didn't even fight back, and dozens of mecha actually flew away like this." Inside one of the inline mechas, Sergeant Liu Yi looked at the battle situation displayed on the surveyor.
"There must be ghosts." Beside him, the observer of the mecha had a "this is a conspiracy" expression, "These Americas must have other missions, I asked the surrounding allies to pay attention to them, and attack if they can." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately issued this announcement to the surrounding Zhonglian mechas.
"Understand, we'll attack when we have time...... Oh shit, this Covenant mech group is fucking again! ”
Around them, several mech groups fought each other, and both sides couldn't spare time to retreat to avoid each other's lightsabers and laser cannons.
Originally, mecha combat was about mobility, but due to the interference of the energy domain field, its flight was greatly limited. Therefore, this mecha battlefield has a certain regionalization, so there is a "marginal area".
Despite the fierce battle, many people in the mecha group of Zoomlion still took time out of the battle, and hundreds of beams of light came out of it, hitting the 62 Star Alliance mechas.
"Oh shit, dodge these particle beams, we're being attacked by friendly forces again." T'Aquila shouted as he operated the console with one hand, "Hey, Cortana, 24° on the port side."
Cortana didn't reply, she calmly pressed one of the buttons on the left twice, and the entire mecha dodged in one turn, dodging several waves of laser attacks.
T'Aquila: "Well done! ”
And the remaining 61 mechs are also dodging the bombardment of various cluster weapons. Because Zoomlion's mecha was busy fighting, the colored ribbon in the sky made the fire control lock of the energy weapon problematic, and it could only hit at a very close distance, so none of the mechs were hit, they all safely avoided the past, and then they all converged towards a certain large coordinates.
However, at this moment, dozens of particle beams suddenly came in, and they all swept towards their gem road we4.
Just now, the surrounding Zhonglian mecha noticed that this gem road WE4 was the foreman of the entire mecha group, and the dodge skills were the most superb, so they were naturally set on fire and became the focus of attention.
"Damn, get out of the way, Cortana." T'Aquila looked at the screen a little nervously, because there were so many particle beams at this time, she couldn't help Cortana, and could only rely on the driver's own skills to dodge and dodge.
Therefore, although the technical literacy of observers is very demanding and essential, it is still the importance of the driver. Of course, ace drivers do not need observers, and with their reflexes, they can deal with a large amount of data at the same time, and they are both drivers and observers.
Dozens of particle beams completely blocked all the evasion paths of the gem path WE4, and a surrounding area was completely blocked.
The situation was critical, and T'Aquila's heart was in her throat for a moment, and she stared at Cortana's pretty face.
Still as calm as ever, but will she be able to avoid this crisis?
As Cortana's old partner, T'Aquila is also at a loss.
