"How long have I been unconscious?" Zhao Yu lay on the bed and blinked, trying to remember what happened before he lost consciousness. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Christine, who was standing on the edge of the bed fiddling with the computer, gave him a big roll of the eyes: "Please don't say this every time you open your eyes, I always have the illusion that you are knocked unconscious every time." β
"Probably not this time, right?" Zhao Yu rubbed his head and sat up, looking around, this was no longer the room where he drew blood, it was more like a dormitory, "I remember...... It seems like there's some kind of mess at the end? β
"You really can't remember?" Christine snorted, "That doctor inhaled an overdose of anesthetic when you took blood, intending to draw more blood while you were unconscious, he had already taken about 1,000 ml when I noticed it, and he would probably continue to pump if I didn't stop it." β
ββ¦β¦ 1000οΌ Zhao Yu was startled, "Is he planning to kill me?" β
So I put a gun to his head and had a frank conversation with him." Christine pointed to the pistol at her waist, "I told him that if he didn't stop, he wouldn't see what the future of the planet would be." β
"And he took your advice, didn't he?" Zhao Yu sighed and turned his head to Christine, "I said, thank you." β
Christine tilted her head to look at him, as if to make sure he was serious about what he said, and then she smiled slightly: "We are comrades who were born and died together, and I will not leave you alone." β
"I know." Zhao Yu saw that there were no strange tubes inserted in his body, so he tried to jump out of bed, and found that his strength didn't seem to have lost much, "Then how long have I been in a coma?" β
"An hour or so." Christine looked out the door, "We're waiting for those bastards to pack up." β
"Tidy up?"
"Do you remember the ugly bastards on our heads who were looking for data?" Christine pointed to the ceiling, "Just left, followed by an urgent communication from the 601 Mecha Regiment, saying that the Coalition forces on the ground began to adjust the range of fire, and it seems that they have lost patience with finding things in the research institute." β
When he said this, it seemed that a dull sound came from a distant place, and Zhao Yu felt that the ground was also shaking slightly.
"Ah, it seems to be...... The Confederates are attacking the Institute, and I don't know if we're going to be buried in the ground. "The people at the institute are busy disassembling the necessary equipment to be transferred, such as the equipment containing the white-haired man, which must be taken away, and we have to follow them through the underground emergency passage." β
"Underground emergency passage? I remember Bodwell too, right? Do all these scientists have this hobby? β
Christine shrugged and slipped the computer back into her backpack: "Now that you're awake, let's go - I don't think it's impossible for those people to sneak us away now that they've used us up." β
ββ¦β¦ Your personality in this area is surprisingly dark. Zhao Yu couldn't help but complain, but still followed Christine out of the room.
They were at the end of a narrow corridor at the moment, and the lights at the exit in front of them were flickering irregularly, giving them an eerie feel. Christine had already opened the safety with the pistol in her hand: "It's quieter than just now...... These bastards aren't really gone, are they? β
But things seem to be even worse than Christine had thoughtβa few minutes later, they find a body in an aisle.
"Tim Layton." Christine frowned and recognized the black security guard, "What did he kill him by?" β
Zhao Yu squatted down to check it: "His chest is dented...... It seems that something broke the ribs, and by the way, pierced the heart and lungs or something. β
Christine's brow furrowed even tighter: "Could it be that those ugly bastards did it?" β
"Not ruled out." Zhao Yu picked up the pistol that fell next to Tim, "The bullet was halfway out, but I didn't see any other corpses - maybe it was really those guys, it seems that they were a little smarter than expected, and they really found a way to get down." β
"Why do such exaggerated things always happen with you?" Christine could only sigh, "Being dozens of meters underground, being chased and killed by a group of biocyboids, and there is still coalition artillery fire above us that intends to blow us to slag...... This is beyond the situation faced by ordinary soldiers, right? β
Zhao Yu laughed dryly: "I have been mixed from the 20th century to the 22nd century, and now there is an invitation from aliens, do you think that you can fully appreciate the wonder of the world by mixing with me?" β
"It's too much of a wonder! β¦β¦ I'm not going to get you involved in that assessment, am I? Christine suddenly became worried, "Should I stay away from you now?" β
"Don't worry, you don't have a road marker...... Zhao Yu's voice suddenly stopped, "Did you hear anything just now?" β
Christine nodded: "Gunshots." β
"It seems that you still have to pinch your nose and cooperate with the people at the institute." Zhao Yu muttered, took out two magazines from Tim's corpse, and filled the pistol, "Let's go!" β
The location of the battlefield is not far away, it is a small underground parking lot, the scene was already very tragic when Zhao Yu and the others arrived, there were at least four biological adjusters lying on the ground, and Professor Thomas looked a little better, only Kuroda Mitsutada was covered in blood, and there were several huge wounds on his body that looked painful, Thomas and Catherine were backed by a large truck, each holding a gun, and insisted on strafing the remaining two adjusters, but the continuous pouring of bullets could only temporarily prevent the other party from rushing over.
"Christine, aim at the head!" Zhao Yu shouted, "Let's focus on solving one first!" β
The bullets flying from the side and rear obviously interfered with the adjuster who was chosen by Zhao Yu, it turned around and roared twice and pounced on the two, while Zhao Yu and Christine had no choice but to continue to shoot its head, the first dozen bullets seemed to have no effect, Zhao Yu could clearly see that several bullet holes appeared in its face, but the adjuster did not seem to be fatally injured, and even its speed did not change, until it rushed to a place only a few meters away from Zhao Yu, its head finally burst out with a stream of blood arrows!
"This is it!" Zhao Yu dodged the adjuster's attack as quickly as he could, and then he clung to it, and the pistol was directly against the adjuster's head, the muzzle of the gun was facing the bloody hole, and all the bullets were shot into it in one go!
Of course, it wasn't all for nothing, the adjuster roared and punched Zhao Yu, knocking him two or three meters away, before he shook and fell to the ground, convulsing a few times before he didn't move.
"Zhao Yu!" Christine exclaimed, but Zhao Yu quickly staggered to his feet: "Hmph, it's far worse than the strength of the gray wolf...... Damn, it still hurts a little. β
At this time, the gunfire on the other side also stopped, Zhao Yu looked up, and saw that the other adjuster also fell to the ground, and it was obviously Kuroda Mitsutada who killed it - the knife had just left the adjuster's neck, and the adjuster's head and body had been divided into two parts.
"Are the recent monsters not afraid of bullets but only cold weapons?" Zhao Yu muttered to himself.
Christine noticed something else: "That guy's knife...... And hands, seems to be a bit of a problem? β
It wasn't until he got closer that Zhao Yu noticed that Kuroda's arm was showing a metallic sheen - Kuroda's severed arm to be exact.
In the previous battle, Kuroda's left arm had been broken off his elbow, and now several wires were shaking miserably at the section of his elbow.
"Damn, Kuroda, are you a robot?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask.
"It's human." Catherine said, "His two hands, chest cavity and half of his lungs are artificial, and other than that, he is an ordinary person, and I just gave him a check-up. β
Kuroda nodded: "I was injured in an accident, and then that's it." β
Christine looked around at everyone: "What the hell is going on?" How did these ugly monsters find their entrance? β
"It's Michael!" Fisher poked his head out of the truck and shouted with trembling lips, "It's Michael Maz!" He is the internal response of the Union Army! β
ββ¦β¦ And this person? Zhao Yu scratched his head, "To be honest, the fact that you didn't die Fisher makes me think that you are also like a traitor......"
Fisher looked sad and shrank back into the carriage.
But then Christine pointed the gun at Dr. Thomas: "Doctor, I think I need an explanation?" Why do you seem to have everything packed up and are about to slip away at any moment, and we don't know it? β
Dr. Thomas frowned slightly, "Ms. Christine, given your previous actions, I don't think it's a good idea for us to go together. β
"So you left us underground and waited for the Allies to bury us alive?"
"No, we've been in contact with the 601 Mech Regiment, and they've agreed to pick you up when they retreat."
Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows: "Retreat? Are they going to retreat too? β
"They're going to cover the retreat of the institute car to the south, targeting Las Vegas, which is the closest large stronghold to here." "Dr. Thomas wanted to get off as soon as possible, so we were going to do it first. β
"Kuroda, I thought you were on our side." Zhao Yu said.
Kuroda was silent for a few seconds before replying, "I accept the instructions of the WPA. β
"None of the good things anyway." Christine snorted.
Dr. Thomas's face was not very good-looking: "Since you arrived in time, you can come with us." β
Zhao Yu looked at him like an idiot: "Doctor, we haven't been so broad-minded yet. Let's put it this way, you can run for your life in your car, we don't need you to make a false gesture now. β
Dr. Thomas shook his head, gave up continuing to argue with Zhao Yu, and turned to pull the car door: "Let's go, we're pressed for time...... Catherine, you come to drive. β
"Take care." Catherine Zhou whispered to Zhao Yu as she left.
The heavy truck let out a heavy roar and disappeared at the end of the tunnel ahead.
"Wayward?" Christine said, "Just give up the chance to escape? β
Zhao Yu looked at her funny: "Do you want to get into that car?" β
"Not at all." Christine replied, "But isn't it time to think about how to get out?" β
At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly came from overhead, louder than any before!
"Hell! It's not going to collapse soon, is it? Zhao Yu looked up and saw that there was a crack on the roof of the parking lot that was rapidly expanding, "There's no time, let's go out along the tunnel first!" β
Shaking and loud noises chased after him, Zhao Yu and Christine ran wildly all the way, and several times Zhao Yu thought that the gravel falling from his head would hit his head, but fortunately, his bad luck broke out at this time, so that he could almost break out of the tunnel without even slowing down and changing direction - if it weren't for Christine running halfway through and almost buried in it.
In the end, it was Zhao Yu who hugged Christine and carried her on his shoulders, which was a fluke and rushed out of the hole, and almost at the same time as the two escaped, a collapsed boulder smashed heavily into the tunnel behind them.
"Hey, mech infantry's stamina...... Is that all? Zhao Yu sat on the ground panting, "Let a ...... who has just lost too much blood The charioteers are coming to carry you...... It's not the same as saying yes! β
Christine also leaned on Zhao Yu without any image, eager to press the weight of his upper body: "I am a mecha infantryman!" Mecha! You give me a set...... Power Armor! Believe it or not, I can run out with you in my arms! β
"You nonsense...... With power armor, I can hold three of you! Zhao Yu gasped a few more times, "Damn, where is this?" Where does this tunnel lead? β
He staggered to his feet and looked around. The lights in the tunnel had been completely extinguished, and it was pitch black all around, if it weren't for the faint firelight in the distance that could barely illuminate something, and the oncoming wind, Zhao Yu wouldn't even be sure that he had escaped from the tunnel.
The sound of explosions was still continuous, and at the same time, there were some other voices in the darkness, and Zhao Yu immediately recognized what it was: "The sound of the chariot moving!" Less than a hundred meters from us, advancing, is it the 601 Mecha Regiment or the Union Army? β
At this moment, a snow-white light suddenly hit him, so that he couldn't even open his eyes.
"I always see you in unexpected places, old man." The voice on the radio carried a hint of helplessness, but immediately became enthusiastic, "My tank just lacks a co-pilot, Zhao Yu, the former private of the 475th Mecha Regiment, I announce that you have been temporarily drafted, and the lady over there, I think your computer technology will help us, and we will be recruited together...... What are you doing, fucking climb into the cockpit, we're going to be left behind! β
