Section 20: Coercion
"Twitter...... Twitter...... Twitter...... Twitter...... Twitter...... In the blink ......of an eye, a dense stream of bullets swarmed in, causing the cries to stagger, wailing incessantly.
The iron slag in mid-air pulled the joystick and turned around, and the upper body of the mecha rotated with it. With the help of this whirling force, the mechanical arm flung suddenly, and the heavy sword came out of his hand, smashing like a meteor into the hyena-like mecha behind!
I only heard "Bang! With a muffled thud, the heavy hilt of the sword slammed into the head of the hyena-like mech that was firing wildly, knocking it directly to the ground. After landing, the wolf-like mecha immediately swung its huge iron fist to smash away the chopper beside it, and then ran at full speed towards the hyena-like mecha that fell to the ground.
"Brother Tie, what are you doing?" Bai Xiaoyun asked weakly.
"I'll kill you if I shoot again!" Iron Slag threatened loudly, manipulated the mecha to pick up the heavy sword on the ground, and reflexively killed back into the group of cripping flies. Suddenly, the shrill hiss and the roar of the engine intertwined. The wolf-like mecha wielded a heavy sword, slashing and slashing the crushing flies like a withering and decaying sword, bringing up pieces of blood and flowers wherever the blade came.
In an instant, the dark green paint was dyed a dark red, the armor was splattered with viscous blood, and there were broken bones and flesh hanging from the joints everywhere. It didn't take long for the Cry Fly to be killed by the iron slag, and the rest fled in all directions.
[Pilot, you have completed the additional quest "Swarm Pursuit", which has received a starting fund of 10,000 Tana and a mission XP of 3,000 EXP.]

[Mission Complete, Prepare to Leave Quest Mode, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5......]
When the number jumped to "1", the home screen shook for a moment, and the surrounding scenery changed slightly, the corpses and dirt pits everywhere were gone, and the blood and debris stuck to the mecha disappeared as if nothing had happened.
Iron Slag glanced at the data screen, and the damage and fuel consumption of the mecha were still there, and there was no change from leaving the dungeon.
"Hahaha, I've completed the task, and I still have three thousand experience points to give, hahaha, I've been promoted to sergeant, great." Bai Xiaoyun's excited voice came from the speaker.
"You almost hit me just now." Iron Slag said in a deep voice.
"Hahaha, huh?" Bai Xiaoyun said happily.
"If what happened just now had happened in the real world, I would have killed you." Iron Slag said lightly, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.
"Ah......" "Firing at friendly forces is the worst act of betrayal." "Don't be so nervous, it's fake, okay? Virtual worlds. ”
"You'll be miserable when you get out, I promise." Iron Slag threatened.
"Brother Tie, I was wrong, I won't dare next time, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you can do whatever I want......"
Bai Xiaoyun's voice pleading came from the speaker, and Iron Slag snorted coldly and said, "Next time, I will definitely kill you." ”
"Thank you, Brother Tie, I don't dare anymore, there won't be a next time......" "Where's the money?" "What money?"
"Starting capital." Iron Slag reminded that Bai Xiaoyun chose a hyena-type mecha, and the system would compensate 1,000 Tana.
"Oh~ This money is for Brother Tie, I'll turn it over immediately."
[Toot ...... Send 1,000 tana to your Ingreil account...... Current account deposit 11000 tana]
After receiving the remittance, the iron slag extracted the fuel on Bai Xiaoyun's mecha through the oil pipeline. The battle just now consumed most of his fuel, and if he didn't add a little more, he would have no combat capability in case of any more danger along the way.
After a while, the fuel of the Wolf mecha returned to 60%, which basically met the emergency needs, while the hyena mecha still had 40% of fuel left, as long as it did not fight, it was no problem to walk dozens of kilometers. Then, Iron Slag opened the holographic map and walked towards the direction of the first base with Bai Xiaoyun.
This is a Gobi terrain, except for some knife-like stone mountains, all around is empty, and all the red land is cracked and dry at a glance. Along the way, you can occasionally see a bunch of bushes growing on a raised mound of earth. This meager gray-green color brings a hint of life to this barren land.
Bai Xiaoyun said that the topography of Ingrid was created by simulating the heterotopic "No. 5 Desert". It is said that the land area of Desert No. 5 is very vast, hundreds of times the total land area of the world, but it is this Gobi terrain wherever you go......
As he spoke, a large building with a gray façade and a glass roof appeared on the horizon in the distance. In the evening sun, the gray façade reflects the sheen of metal, like a fortress cast of steel.
The two of them quickened their pace, and finally arrived at the first base before dark. As they approached the base gate, the gate opened with a bang. The moment he stepped into the base, a mechanically synthesized female voice came from the speakers.
[You have entered the safe area, go offline here, you will not be attacked in any way]
[Pilot, welcome to Base No. 1, directly in front of you is the Lounge, with the Mecha and Weapons Market on the left and the Repair and Supply Center on the right]
[Again, please do not disclose your personal information to strangers to avoid fraud, and double confirm that you have received this prompt]
"Long-winded." Iron Slag said impatiently.
[Please confirm that you have received this prompt] The mechanical synthesized female voice sounded again, and Iron Slag reluctantly said "confirm".
[Driver, have a nice stay in Ingreil]
After the sound ends, Iron Slag heads straight to the weapons trading market, ready to buy some equipment. But not long after entering the market, Bai Xiaoyun's confused voice came from the speaker.
"Brother Tie...... I'm sleepy...... Let's get some sleep first......" Iron Slag shook his head, opened the trading platform, and began to browse the price of the mecha.
[Basic type] [Hyena style, 65,000 tana] [Wolf type, 85,000 tana] [Flamingo style, 60,000 tana] [Thunder fire type, 50,000 tana] [Black King Kong, 70,000 Tana]
[Advanced] [Tiger style, 300,000 tana] [Falcon, 280,000 Tana] [Zero type, 180,000 tana] [Wind Shinobi, 150,000 Tana] [Kirigaku, 250,000 Tana] [Boomer, 120,000 tana]
"It's expensive." Iron Slag said to himself, he also plans to buy a Tiger type, it seems that there is no way for the time being. He has always liked the Tiger Mecha, and when he was in Iron Mountain Town before, he would run to the garrison every once in a while, forcing Lao Di to give him permission to open the Tiger Mecha.
The Tiger can be seen as an upgraded version of the Wolf Mecha, and although they are produced by different companies, they are designed by the same designer. The Wolf mech is codenamed X3, while the Tiger mech is codenamed X5. From this, it can be seen that they are products of the same series. Compared with the Wolf mecha, the structure of the Tiger mecha is more reasonable, the steel is more advanced, the engine is more powerful, and the production process is more perfect.
After reading the information of the mecha, Iron Slag opened the list of weapons on the side and browsed it.
[12mm Rotary Barrel Six-Barreled Vulcan Cannon, 1000 Tana] [15mm Rotary Barrel Six-Barreled Vulcan, 1200 Tana] [18mm Rotary Barrel Six-Barreled Vulcan Cannon, 1500 Tana]
[5.56mm Shellless Bullet Launcher, 3000 Tana] [19.1mm Heavy Duty Eleven-Tube Garinth, 5000 Tana]
[20mm cannon, 1200 tana] [25mm cannon, 1500 tana] [30mm cannon, 1800 tana]
[50mm Heavy Cannon, 2500 Tana] ......
After hesitating for a moment, he clicked on the "12mm Rotary Drum Six-Barreled Vulcan Cannon*2". After paying 2,000 Tana, two Vulcan cannons appeared on the mech's mechanical arm.
The next step is to purchase ammunition, and the bullets of the Vulcan cannon are mainly divided into three types: ordinary bullets, instantaneous explosion shells, and armor-piercing incendiary/bullets. They are about the same price, and each has its own purpose. Ordinary bullets, also known as steel core bullets, have a long range; Instantaneous projectiles have a short range and weak penetration, and will explode after hitting a target or flying a certain distance; Armor-piercing incendiary/projectiles, on the other hand, have a medium range, have strong penetration, and can burn after hitting a target.
Iron Slag directly clicked 1000 rounds of ordinary rounds, 1000 rounds of armor-piercing incendiary/bullets, and after paying 800 tana, each of the two bullets was loaded on two Vulcan cannons.
Finally, there is the purchase of shoulder-mounted rocket launchers or missiles, and because of the wide variety of them, he only selected a few common ones for comparison.
[Rockets]
[1.2m Two-Shot Explosive Rocket Launcher, 2600 Tana] [1m four-round blast rocket launcher, 2800 tana] [0.6m Six-Round Explosive Rocket Launcher, 2800 Tana] [0.5 Twelve-Round Explosive Rocket Launcher, 3500]
[1.2m two-shot armor-piercing rocket launcher, 2600 tana] [1m four-round armor-piercing rocket launcher, 3800 tana]
[1m three-shot incendiary rocket launcher, 2600 tana]
[Missile]
[1.25m depleted uranium armor-piercing missile, heat source tracking 2000 tana, sensor lock tracking 2300 tana, radar positioning tracking 3200 tana]
[1.25m High Explosive Missile, Heat Source Tracking 2000 Tana, Sensor Lock Tracking 2300 Tana, Radar Positioning Tracking 3200 Tana]
[1.25m incendiary missile, heat source tracking 2000 tana, sensor lock tracking 2300 tana, radar positioning tracking 3200 tana]
After comparing for a while, Tie Slag clicked on the "1m four-round explosive rocket launch nest" and "1.25m depleted uranium armor-piercing missile with sensor lock tracking", and after paying 5100 tana, the mecha has an extra missile on its right shoulder and a rocket launch nest on its left shoulder.
After purchasing the equipment, the iron slag immediately went to the maintenance and supply center, and paid another 350 tana for maintenance and 200 tana for fuel. With all of them down, he paid a total of 7,900 tana, leaving 2,550 tana.
At this time, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and Iron Slag didn't feel much sleep, so he came to the rest center of the first base to understand the situation. The lounge is full of different styles and colorful mechs. Iron Slag picked up the keypad on the side of the driver's seat and placed it on his lap, then opened the lounge option.
[Mission Center] [Personal Trading Center] [Join Public Chat Room] [Create a private chat room] [Join Private Chat Room]
Iron Slag clicked [Add to Public Chat Room], and the screen on the home screen turned, and lines of chat messages appeared.
The third disciple of the fire thief: "I heard that your student union has another big beauty this year, do you have any photos, send them out to see." ”
CSUM Elementary School Student: "You mean Secretary General Bi Qinglan?" (CSUM is the abbreviation of Central Silver City Military Academy, CentralSilvercity University of Military)
The third disciple of the Fire Stealer: "Yes, that's her." ”
CSUM Elementary School Student: "I have the photos, but why should I send them to you?" ”
"Threaten, hurry up." "What you don't send is coercion." "CSFC's is all coercion." "Go back to elementary school." "Hey, who are you scolding?" "It's okay if you scold him, scold us CSFC for what to do, be careful that we kill you." "Come on, who's afraid of whom!" "What's your name, dare you come out and fight alone." "See you now at the entrance of the Cosmos Cinema on Center Street! What doesn't come is coercion. "Okay, let's go." "Why don't you go offline, let's go." "Threaten, you go offline first." "If you don't dare, forget it, coercion." "Your whole family is coerced."
There was a quarrel in the public chat room, and the messages were one after another, and I couldn't figure out what they were scolding against......
