Chapter 269: The Great Gathering

Zhang Haolin grabbed the stunned Wen Yu and Ani, pulled them behind the armored car, and at the same time shouted to the other team members whose vision was blocked by their liquid metal, so that they all hid in the bunker, and then removed the liquid metal on their faces and let everyone regain their sight.

"It's hot!" Weng Wei's face was full of shock, he had just been swept over his head in the sweep of the laser from two kilometers away, fortunately, Zhang Haolin reacted quickly and wrapped all the team members from head to toe with liquid metal, otherwise this C-level reincarnator who had strengthened the bloodline of a high-level wizard would probably be killed by a laser in a daze without even reciting a spell.

But even if it was blocked by the liquid metal, Weng Wei's head was still swollen and red from the high temperature of the laser, and his body, which was close to two hundred cell vitality, was actually burned.

"How could you encounter this kind of weapon, this is simply disgusting......" Mao Dong looked disgusted, none of the 6 reincarnators present had the means to attack the enemy two kilometers away, as long as the other party set up a laser launcher on the mountain over there and kept strafing, they had no choice!

What's even more troublesome is that this armored car itself cannot be regarded as a perfect cover, under the all-round monitoring of the detectors floating everywhere around it, the laser beam accurately irradiated the surface of the armored vehicle, penetrated one side of the body at an amazing speed, and shot to the last steel plate, as long as it passed a few tenths of a second, it could completely penetrate the landing vehicle and hit Zhang Haolin's head!

"Oh no, the car can't stop it." Fortunately, Zhang Haolin used his ability to sense the changes of the armored car throughout the whole process, and when he found that the vehicle was pierced through a small hole, he instantly grabbed a ball of liquid metal and blocked the hole, and at the same time relied on the fine operation of the ability to turn the liquid metal into a mirror, wanting to rely on reflection to resist the laser......

But something happened that made his scalp tingle: the mirror solidified by liquid metal only resisted the laser for less than a second, and was heated and deformed by ultra-high temperature, which can withstand the HJ-Y alloy with a high temperature of nearly 10,000 degrees. It actually boiled under the laser irradiation, and if it wasn't for Zhang Haolin's efforts to control it with his ability, it would have exploded directly.

――

Blocking lasers with reflections may seem like an ideal defense, but to completely defend against lasers, it is necessary to achieve "absolute reflection".

However in real life...... It should be said that in any field, once the word "absolute" is talked about. What was in question suddenly went from an idea to a pure concept - a mirror with 100% reflectivity could not be made, at least not within the framework of the current theoretical framework of mankind. What's more, even if a mirror with 100% reflectivity is produced, it may not be able to defend against lasers: because pulsed lasers rely on intermittently released ultra-high power energy to form lethality, and the essence of reflection is that the outer electrons of the coated metal (or other substance) atoms that make the mirror "absorb energy and quickly release it in the direction of reflection" - when the instantaneous peak power of the laser pulse exceeds the photoelectric effect tolerance of the "mirror" material, that is, the reflection ability, The structure of atoms and electrons in its microstructure is destroyed, and the mirror is destroyed.

It is impossible for Zhang Haolin to rely on his abilities and liquid metal to create an absolute reflective mirror, 1000 intelligence is not enough, and 10000 intelligence is impossible to do. Absolute reflection exists only theoretically...... Maybe a magical guy like the Lord God can do it, but the reincarnators are only slightly stronger mortals after all, and when it comes to the realm of "absolute", they are not much different from ants.

"Help me find a way to block it!" Zhang Haolin roared, and took out a large pile of garbage from the ring - steel balls, alloy plates on the mechanical reincarnations, guns, and even the Edman alloy knife - nothing could block this laser for more than a second, even the Edman alloy, which is known to be immune to high temperatures, was quickly scalded under the irradiation of the ultra-high-intensity pulsed laser, and the surface was peeled off and vaporized, and the user was so distressed that he quickly replaced it.

Weng Wei took out his wand. After chanting a mantra, the ground began to arch upward. It seemed to be about to form an earthen wall, but they forgot that under their feet was not the real ground, and under a shallow layer of sand was the Titans' spaceship hangar, which could not condense too thick a wall of earth. Moreover, the sand and gravel are also quickly shot through by the laser, and the laser can only be continuously blocked by continuous deformation.

Everyone was in a hurry, taking out all kinds of things and constantly filling in the holes that the laser shot through one after another, and the places that didn't have time to react were hard blocked with liquid metal - even if Weng Wei continued to use spells to cool down and reduce losses, Zhang Haolin's liquid metal still lost hundreds of milliliters in just half a minute. The vaporized part of the laser is directly dispersed into the atmosphere and reacts with other gases to form impurities, which are difficult to recover.

"How can this be, you have no way to fight back?" Cai Tingting cried in fright all of a sudden, she was also unlucky, the first time she followed the veterans to act, she encountered a battle between reincarnators, and she fell into this situation of being powerless: "If we stay here, we will die." ”

"Shut up! Haolin, can you cover me, I rush over and destroy the laser emitter? Mao Dong said: "Can Wen Yu attack them with his mental ability, it will only take me more than ten seconds to rush over." ”

"How is it possible, two kilometers Alas, I can't even maintain a spiritual connection at such a distance, let alone attack." Wen Yu said anxiously: "Moreover, more than ten seconds...... You've been pierced by lasers for a long time I don't know how many times! ”

"Even if you are alone, you can't do anything, just block it here, Weng Wei, you keep using spells to build earth walls, I don't believe that a laser of this power can be fired all the time without any cost!"

If you can't defend against lasers, then there are two ways to deal with it: in addition to destroying the emission source that Mao Dong thought of, providing a steady stream of blockers can also be passively defended, and it is difficult to launch a counterattack at a distance of two kilometers, so you can only take the latter option first.

"The sandstorm is coming soon, hold on until that moment, the laser can't attack in this environment!"

……

"Haze anti-laser", this is a famous joke forcibly created on the Internet by taking it out of context, the person who said this sentence himself does not mean to advocate that the ruler should let the development of smog to defend against the lasers of other countries, but points out the fact that the effect of the laser will be greatly reduced when encountering haze. The particles in the haze can block and weaken the laser, and even if the laser instantly burns through the particles in the way, the massive particles around it will quickly replenish and continue to form obstacles - even the light haze can have such an effect, and the dust storm with huge sand and gravel particles is even more effective, as long as you hold on until the sandstorm passes. The opponent's laser is useless!

Constantly consuming the sand and stones on the ground and the unimportant solid items in the ring, the reincarnators held on to the laser fire for several minutes, and the sandstorm was getting closer and closer, and the upper end of the dust cloud was already covering their heads!

"Here, put on the helmet, Wen Yu keeps up the mental scan. Notify you as soon as you have a situation! ”

The next moment, the sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun flooded everything in front of him, and the huge sandstone particles hit everyone's spacesuits and helmets, making a dense and crisp sound, and the sandstorm wind speed caused by the special astronomical and climatic environment of the alien planet reached level sixteen, although the destructive power was slightly smaller because of the thin air, but the power was still enough to easily blow the house and vehicle up, Zhang Haolin used liquid metal to fix everyone in place to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, until Weng Wei used a range of stabilization spells to envelop everyone. to weaken the impact of sandstorms......

For ordinary people, such a sandstorm can be almost fatal if there is no protective equipment, but for the reincarnations, this dust storm is like a timely rain under a drought at this moment - the dense and coarse silicide particles not only block the light of the star, but also make the high-energy laser weapon two kilometers away useless, the beam penetrating the dust storm will be weakened by at least nine layers, and then it will lose its destructive power if it is blocked by anything!

"Alright, secure the car. It's time for us to act! ”

"Where are we going? Hide back to the Titans' base. ”

"No...... We're going to have to go to the Prometheus first, and we've got eight of them. Six ...... died," Zhang Haolin said: "But I only deducted 900 bonus points, which means that only three people in the spaceship died, and there are six plot characters plus one reincarnation alive, if we give up all of them, our losses will be too great!" ”

"Let's go. Act together and quickly rescue the people and retreat to the Titan base. ”

The laser emitter has been turned off, and it is only a waste of energy to shoot out a laser that cannot threaten the enemy, and the mysterious reincarnators over there obviously know this...... There is also good news: the little flying insect detector will not be able to operate under such a violent storm, and will either be blown away or forced to land on the ground. was easily eliminated by Mao Dong running back and forth one by one, and Zhang Haolin and his party successfully got rid of the enemy's surveillance!

After traveling dozens of meters, Weng Wei gave up the protective spell that shrouded everyone, and Zhang Haolin also had to relax the control of the liquid metal that wrapped everyone, and only maintained a minimum so that everyone would not be blown away by the wind, and everyone walked towards the destroyed hull of the Prometheus little by little under the stability of their strong physical fitness and liquid gold armor.

"Didn't the gang move?"

"It's not moving, the mental shield is still on that hill two kilometers away, do they want to wait for the storm to pass and continue to attack us?"

"No way, no matter how fast the wind is, this storm will last for a few hours, and we will have to take refuge in a safe place by then." Mao Dong denied this speculation: "They didn't dare to appear in the scope of our mental scan at first, but now they have been staying there with a big grin, they must have something to rely on or wait for......"

"Reasonable, it's better to be careful."

"First with missiles, and then with lasers, those detectors that will self-detonate are estimated to be their ghosts, this team should take the high-tech route, they should not have much advantage in medium and close combat, so they dare not come closer."

"No matter how much, if they dare to come closer, we will fight, and they are not vegetarians."

In the storm, less than two-thirds of the Prometheus's hull still flashed with sparkling light, and although the nerves were tense, the mysterious people on the top of the hill a few miles away did not fire missiles or anything like that again, and the human reincarnation approached the hull on foot in the storm.

"Huh......" Wen Yu suddenly pointed in another direction in the dust storm and exclaimed: "Over there, there seems to be something approaching from the ground again...... It's so fast, it's like flying underground! ”

The psychic beings shared the information obtained from the scans into everyone's minds, and in the opposite direction to the group of mysterious people who had attacked them before, a flame of extreme dazzling light rushed towards the Prometheus at an alarming speed dozens of meters underground.

"Very strong, so obvious in my spirit scan, it means that his spirit is at least eight hundred or more, but there is only one."

"How is it possible, it's underground, unless he's a completely disembodied creature, how can he run so fast." Zhang Haolin said: "Did the gang on the top of the mountain move before, are they just waiting for this thing?" ”

"They didn't seem to move...... As for running so fast underground, it should be that there are caves he dug underground, and he only needs to walk through these tunnels. Mao Dong said: "Look at his direction, he is heading for the Prometheus, let's speed up a little, it's only more than a hundred meters!" ”

Due to its incredible speed underground, the third-party entity that suddenly appeared approached until within two kilometers before being spotted by Wen Yu, and it continued to accelerate, traveling this distance underground in just two minutes, stopping precisely below the Prometheus, and then began to move towards the surface.

"This can't be a coincidence, this new thing that came out of the new one shouldn't be an accomplice of the guys on the mountain over there, otherwise it should have been the best effect to attack at the same time as they forced us to shrink our heads with a laser just now, so at this time, all three teams of reincarnators have gathered here!"

The newly emerged units finally slowed down as they approached the Prometheus from the underground, probably due to the fact that there were no ready-made caves available from that location to the surface...... But it was not affected by the sandstorm, after all, it still succeeded in one step faster than the reincarnations, and when Zhang Haolin and the others were still fifty or sixty meters away from the Prometheus, it successfully drilled out of the ground and appeared next to the capsized ship of the Prometheus!

――

"What the hell ......" A thick figure appeared dozens of meters away in the dust storm, and his intuition told Zhang Haolin that this should be the alien reincarnation who only heard of his name and didn't see his body, but where did this look like an alien: a thick and round body like a intestine, a chrysanthemum-shaped abyss mouth, surrounded by a circle of more than a dozen teeth that bent inward, it was clearly a large desert death worm!

No, not a worm, as the monster's body continued to burrow out of the ground, limbs appeared, two thick and hard upper limbs pierced out of the ground, clinging to the edge of the hole, and pulling the rest of his body out of the ground with force, and then the worm-like round body quickly contracted and tapered, and slowly retracted into the soil...... At this time, a huge head that could barely be seen to be an alien poked out of the ground, and the large death worm before was not the main body, but just the tongue of the monster that was congested and expanded to break through the ground!
