Section 23 Silkworms
"Thank you......" Iron Slag said after a moment of silence.
"Thank you, thank you~ It's not about you~" Jian Guqin said angrily, and there was a trace of coquettishness hidden in his lazy voice.
"Hmm." "Don't tell anyone." "Hmm."
At this time, Sergeant Fukuda's voice came from the communicator: "Assistant Jean, I'm coming up." ā
"Hmm." Jian Guts and Qin Xin replied casually. Iron Slag suddenly rolled her eyes, she is learning and using it.
"Assistant Qin, please take care of me in the future." Sergeant Fukuda said in a respectful and serious tone. However, what was waiting for him was the faint response: "Hmm." ā
It didn't take long for the chime to sound again: [The swarm will arrive in three minutes, please be prepared]
The iron slag in the simulation pod twisted his neck, moved his fingers flexibly, and then held the joystick with both hands, and looked intently at the home screen.
About ten seconds later, red dust suddenly rose on the distant horizon, and sharp insect chirpings came from far and near. Immediately afterward, swarms of flies appeared on the horizon, and they were densely packed together, surging like a flood.
"Prepare to shoot." With the order of the sword gall and Qin Xin, all the mechas faced the swarming insect swarm, and they were ready to fight, and the Vulcan cannon slowly turned.
The swarm of flies in front of it was like a giant python, winding its way through the crimson hard earth. Behind the swarm of flies are rows of stinging insects that advance slowly. And on the farthest horizon, a huge silkworm appeared. The silkworm was at least ten meters tall and very large. The carapace on the body of the insect is jet-black and shiny. As it moves, the carapace shrinks back and forth, slowly pushing forward.
In the blink of an eye, the swarm rushed to a distance of fifty meters from the fortress. Jian Guts Qin Xin shouted coquettishly, "Kill!" Suddenly pulled up the joystick and pressed the shooting groom!
"Dada...... Dada......" "Dada...... Dada......" "Dada...... Dada......da
In an instant, gunfire rang out one after another, and multiple Vulcan cannons violently spewed tongues of fire, and dense bullets poured out, raining down into the swarm of flies. I saw that the cry in the front row was beaten apart, and the screaming continued.
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound sounded behind him, and when he looked sideways, a white smoke slashed towards the swarm from behind.
"Boom!" A blasting rocket exploded in the dense cries of flies, and immediately flesh and blood flew sideways, and countless stumps were blown into the air.
"Don't waste rockets, save them all for stinging bugs." Sword Guts Qinxin commanded loudly.
"Assistant Qin, I'm ......" "Don't explain, concentrate on fighting." "Yes."
In less than thirty seconds, the group of cripping flies rushed to the bottom of the fortress under the dense firepower, desperately ramming and biting the gate of the fortress. Iron Slag adjusted the muzzle of the gun and fired fiercely at the storming gate. But there are too many cries, and after killing one, make up for one. Although the steel gates of the fortress are strong, they cannot withstand the endless rush.
In the dark, Iron Slag felt that it would definitely be lost if it continued like this, and the ammunition of the nine mechs could not kill these cries at all, let alone the rows of stinging insects in the back. In the midst of his thoughts, Iron Slag's gaze fell on the big black silkworm in the distance.
In the midst of the battle, the group of cries suddenly retreated and dug into the ground. Suddenly, the dry and hard red earth was dubbed into smoke and dust, and it was impossible to see ahead.
"Stingworm approaching, prepare rockets." Jian Guts Qinxin gave the order.
In a blurred vision, rows of stinging insects stopped moving forward and stood on their own. In direct sunlight, the head of the stinging insect reflects a dazzling circle of light.
"Put!" With a crisp voice, white smoke flew towards the stinging insect array from all directions.
At the same time, the large silkworm in the distance let out a low, deep hiss. Immediately, a sharp sound of air currents sounded in the stinging insect array. It was the sound of stinging insects absorbing the air, and in less than a second, their bellies rapidly bulged.
At this moment, dozens of rockets roared, dragging billowing white smoke and piercing the stinging insect array.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The continuous explosions blew the stinging insects to the ground, and the light green slime flew everywhere, falling to the ground with a "zi......zizi" sound, and at the same time emitted thick white smoke.
Looking at the scene ahead, Iron Slag's brows furrowed even tighter. The stinging insects are scattered, and the targets that a single rocket can kill are limited. But there is no way, the stinging worm stands at a distance of five hundred meters, and the Vulcan cannon does not have such a long range.
After the explosion, the stinging insect stood on its own again, frantically absorbing air. Wait until the abdomen is filled with high-pressure gas and a long, sharp bone spur sticks out of the mouthparts. With the sound of eruptions, bone spurs rushed to the sky.
"Whoosh ......", "Whoosh ......", "Whoosh ......", "Whoosh ......", "Whoosh...... "Whoosh......" Thousands of sharp bone spurs cut through the air, flying towards the fortress with the momentum of wind and thunder.
The sky suddenly darkened, and Iron Slag was keenly aware of the change, and shouted, "Hide!" Then the joystick turned and jumped off the city wall reflexively.
"I've been shot, call for backup." "The ammunition compartment was badly damaged." "Whatever, it can also corrode steel." "My gas tank was punctured!" "Quiet, all quiet!"
"Boom!" There was a noise in the speakers, and with the sound of an explosion, one of the eight teammates in the upper right corner disappeared. It will definitely not work if it goes on like this, and this sword and courage has limited command ability, so he has not completed the task twice. In the middle of his thoughts, Iron Slag manipulated the mecha to jump onto the city wall and looked at the big silkworm in the distance again.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first." Iron Slag's eyes narrowed, and he shouted into the microphone, "Cover me." With that, he pushed the stick and jumped off the wall.
"What is he doing?" "He jumped!" The voice of a teammate can be heard over the speaker.
"Come back soon!" Sword Guts Qinxin commanded loudly.
"I said, cover me!" The Iron Slag roared back, shooting as he rushed towards the swarm of cries in front of the fortress. The swerps hissed neatly and surged towards the wolf-like mech. In the blink of an eye, the iron slag crashed headlong into the group of frogs, and the two Vulcan cannons opened fire at close range, blasting the close cry flies into meat sauce.
"Assemble, cover him, quick!" Jian Gut Qinxin came back to his senses and commanded loudly.
Iron Slag pushed the rocker all the way forward, and soon broke through the group of frogs and ran towards the big silkworm in the distance. At this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and countless spikes fell like raindrops. The iron slag pushed the rocker hard and rushed straight over.
Behind the "swishing ......", "swishing ......" and "swishing ......", the sound of breaking the sky sounded one after another, and the iron slag advanced at full speed, and the parabolic attacks of the stinging insects all failed.
"Blood wolf, come on, we're behind you." A crisp voice came from the speakers, and the iron slag rushed straight away. Out of the corner of his eye, the fuel gauge is dropping rapidly, and the thermometer in the water tank is soaring.
[WARNING, engine cooling system overheating]
[Warning, the Vulcan barrel is overheating and may cause ammunition to detonate]
Iron Slag raised his left hand, grabbed the upper pull ring and pulled it hard. There was a soft sound of "......snort" from outside, and the two Vulcan cannons separated from the body, and the ammunition bay on the waist fell to the ground. The mecha was lighter, and its speed became faster.
[WARNING, engine cooling system overheated, temperature 213°C...... 215°Cā¦ā¦ Condensate pressure too high, warning, condensate pressure too high ......]
In the rapid sound of the alarm, the iron slag rushed to the 800-meter range of the large silkworm. He knocked on the lid on the joystick, revealing the red button inside.
[Depleted uranium armor-piercing missile ready, missile targeting mode activated]
As soon as the voice fell, two apertures appeared on the main screen, blue representing the scanning light of the sensor and red representing the direction of the missile's flight.
Iron Slag ran rapidly and slowly pushed the aiming stick, but he shook it several times in a row, but he couldn't lock the big silkworm. The terrain was too low, and he was running at a high speed, and the sensors couldn't lock onto the target.
Thinking of this, Iron Slag's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly slapped the emergency button on the armrest. As he ran, the wolf-like mecha sank downward, and pale blue flames erupted from behind. As soon as the iron slag lifted the rocker, the mecha soared into the sky and flew to a height of dozens of meters.
The blue aperture finally locked on to the target, the red aperture slowly panned, and at the moment when the two circles were combined, the iron slag pressed the launch button hard!
In the long eruption of the "raging ......", the depleted uranium armor-piercing missile on the shoulder of the wild wolf mecha came out in response to the sound and flew rapidly towards the big silkworm. At the same time, the sky suddenly darkened, and countless spikes flew all over the sky.
The iron slag in mid-air couldn't dodge, and he spun the joystick hard, trying to use the mech's back to fend off the attack. At this moment, he only heard a crisp sound of "click", and he used too much force for a while, and he actually ripped off the joystick!
[Toot toot toot ...... The device is damaged, please take it offline immediately...... Doodoo ...... The device is damaged, please take it offline immediately...... Doodoo ......]
When the alarm sounded, the entire cockpit went dark, all the lights went out at the same time, and the hatch slowly opened.
The staff ran over, and the iron slag grinned a little embarrassedly, saying that he was too excited just now. The staff inspected the damage and said that the iron slag would have to pay for the repair of 3 gold coins. Iron slag scratched his hair, took out a magnetic card and swiped it on the staff's credit card machine, and paid the fine.
By the time the iron slag drilled into another simulation chamber and logged back in, the mission was complete.

After reading the task reward, Iron Slag looked at the time, it was now more than six o'clock in the morning, and it was time to go back to the dormitory to rest. However, just as he was about to go offline, a tone rang in his ears.
[Driver, Kengus Kotoxin requests call connection, do you accept it?] ]
