Chapter Twenty-Seven: I Am a Tankman
Ma Le was stunned when he heard this: "Doctor, what do you mean by this?" ”
Lagronde sighed and said, "Although I don't know why there are so many mutant monsters outside, this incident has already announced that the military has lost control of Manhattan. A large number of mutated monsters broke into the safe zone, and Manhattan's facilities were destroyed in large quantities, and there was no need to rescue them. So, the people who are quarantined here should all be purged, and from what I know about Blackwatch, it's likely that some extreme measures will be used! ”
This so-called extreme measure should refer to nuclear weapons, Ma Le couldn't help but admire the judgment of this old expert, in the plot of the game, there is indeed a nuclear bomb cleansing plan, although it was later destroyed by Alex, but the citizens of Manhattan were finally blocked to death.
"Besides, even if Blackwatch is willing to let go of the citizens of Manhattan, I am special, after the crisis, others can leave, and I can only be closely monitored by Blackwatch." Dr. Lagronde added, "So, I'm going to hand over this research to you, you're a perfect evolution, not as powerful as Alex, but you haven't caught the attention of Blackwatch yet, and with your ability, you should be able to take this thing out of Manhattan, and that's the last thing I'll ask you to do!" ”
Seeing that he was so resolute, Ma Le took the box, put it in his backpack, and finally said goodbye to Dr. La Grande and left St. Paul's Hospital. Although Dr. Lagronde did not appear in the second generation, he is a friend of Alex after all, and may be able to survive in Manhattan.
Dodging the battle of mutant monsters and armies along the way, Ma Le finally came to Times Square. He didn't dare to get too close, but climbed up a nearby building to observe the battle from afar.
On the ground in the center of the square stood a huge viral tissue, which looked like a thick spine, the top of the spine was a large (harmonious) flesh, and there was a fissure in the anterior section, in which Elizabeth's humanoid silhouette was faintly visible, and from a distance, it looked quite like a huge swaying "chrysanthemum". There are also two slightly smaller tentacles next to this large chrysanthemum, which are constantly blocking the cannonballs fired at the chrysanthemum, and at the same time lifting boulders to attack nearby enemies.
Seven or eight tanks had already gathered around the square, and four helicopter gunships were hovering in the sky, concentrating their fire on the big chrysanthemum. Elizabeth is not a vegetarian either, the flying stone attack is just a piece of cake, and the real lethality is actually the green spherical virus tissue that erupts from the chrysanthemum crack. Every time the crack wriggles and twitches, it will spew out more than a dozen of these green balls, and these viral tissues will explode violently at the slightest touch, and at the same time release corrosive liquids, and a tank will basically be scrapped after not eating a few rounds.
The military also spent a lot of money in this operation, and the tanks were lost quickly and replenished faster! From Ma Le's point of view, it can be seen that a steady stream of tanks gathered along the highway from all directions towards Times Square, and began to fire artillery from a distance, according to this momentum, even if it is as strong as Elizabeth, it will not last long.
Elizabeth also saw that the shape was grim, the huge chrysanthemum roared in the sky, the sound waves were almost visible to the naked eye, the glass of the nearby skyscrapers shattered in unison, and Ma Le couldn't help but cover his ears. This long howl was actually a summoning signal, and countless hunters broke through the ground and began to attack the tank troops.
The mechanized troops of human beings fight against the powerful creatures mutated by the virus, and the most primitive collision between steel and flesh, such a fierce battle makes Ma Le's blood boil! But he never dared to join in, a random hunter was enough for him to drink a pot, and there were hundreds of hunters below......
Suddenly, Ma Le noticed that a tank was concentrated by several green virus balls at the same time, and the turrets were blown away and scrapped in an instant. But out of the ruins of the tank crawled out a black watchman soldier, and he didn't die under such a violent explosion! Ma Lezheng sighed at the tenacity of this man's vitality, and saw the soldier easily jump into another tank, lift the locked hatch with his bare hands, and jump in, and then several waves of blood splashed from the hatch, and the tank continued to move, bombarding Elizabeth fiercely.
Alex! This soldier must be Alex, the classic and direct carjacking action, he definitely didn't run! Alex's actions inspired Ma Le, if he can hijack the tank, why can't I?
Thinking of this, Ma Le also began to act, he didn't dare to go to Times Square, and even if he went, he didn't have the strength to lift the hatch, but the battle teams in other places were much easier. Ma Le left here, found a nearby squad to fight the scattered hunters, and took advantage of the melee to absorb a black watch soldier armed with a bazooka.
The enemy of this squad was only one hunter, and although this monster was strong and agile, it could not resist the siege of a tank and a dozen soldiers with weapons in their hands. Ma Le soon felt that this hunter could be absorbed, and presumably his life had bottomed out, so he "bravely" rushed forward and was knocked away by the hunter who was dying back......
After the other Black Watch soldiers eliminated the hunter, they all came to treat Ma Le, who pretended to be injured and had difficulty moving, and successfully got several soldiers to take the initiative to move him into the tank to recuperate.
The tank was jointly operated by three soldiers, and while the absorption capacity was still "cooling", Ma Le simply lay quietly and secretly observed the operation of the three people. One of the three is in charge of driving, one is in charge of the main gun, and the last person is in charge of automatic weapons. But I have to say that the military technology in the original form of torture and killing is indeed more advanced than the real world, Ma Le observed for a while and found that these three operations are all done through the guò computer, and the operating platform can be moved, and it can be operated by the same person. This also explains why Alex can operate the tank on his own after killing all the tank drivers, but this requires three uses, and the combat efficiency is relatively low.
The team was also called up, and after a short break, they rushed to Times Square, and soon joined the siege of Elizabeth. Ma Le's absorption ability was also cooled down at this time, and while the three of them were engrossed in the battle, they killed the machine gunner and gunner with a dagger sneak attack, absorbing the driver, memory fragments flashed, and the operation method of the tank was instantly poured into Ma Le's mind.
Ma Le moved the operating platform of the turret and the machine gun to the driver's seat, sat in the driver's seat, and began to operate the tank. But this kind of thing is also a skilled worker, and if you don't know the method and haven't practiced it, you're still very rusty after all. Ma Le started the tank, like a novice on the road, and for a while he went on a rampage, almost crushing the infantry next to him.
"Joey, are you crazy?!" The soldiers outside yelled at Ma Le through the communicator, and Ma Le replied in Joey's voice: "I'm sorry, I'm a little scared by that monster!" The soldier's mocking voice came from the communicator: "Haha, why are you so cowardly, didn't you claim to kick the monster's ass before you set off!" ”
Finally fooled around, Ma Le quickly adapted to driving a tank and joined the army that bombarded Elizabeth. Elizabeth is the big boss of the veteran world in the end, and Ma Le estimates that as long as she can cause damage to her and participate in the plot to eliminate Elizabeth, she should be rewarded.
The battle lasted for several hours, helicopters and tanks were reduced to scrap metal under Elizabeth's fierce attack, and the tanks piloted by Ma Le gradually came to the front line from the rear of the battlefield. Just as the sun began to set, Elizabeth finally began to lose her support, and Ma Le keenly felt that she was weak enough to absorb it.
Ma Le thought a little carefully, if he could successfully absorb Elizabeth, his strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds. But soon this idea was dispelled, Ma Le laughed at himself, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, if he really got up, he might not be able to eat it, not to mention that there was Alex eyeing him next to him.
At this moment, a black watchman jumped out of a tank next to Ma Le, this person was vigorous, and instantly rushed to the bottom of the "big chrysanthemum", slapped the ground with both palms with all his strength, and countless huge sharp spikes instantly grew on the ground within a radius of hundreds of meters, from Elizabeth to the nearby tank troops, all of them received a fatal blow.
Sure enough, Alex also sensed Elizabeth's weakness and rushed out to make up for the last slash! This trick Ma Le knows, in the game, it is one of Alex's three tricks, the tomb tip kills! It can shoot virus tissue into the ground and turn it into a huge blade harder than steel, breaking through the ground, causing extensive damage. Seeing this move in reality, it is even more domineering than in the game, with a larger range and higher damage, and almost the entire armored force is wiped out in one blow!
Marle's tank was not spared, as he crawled out of the tank wreckage just in time to see Alex pull Elizabeth out of the massive virus tissue and absorb it.
Alex doesn't seem to notice Ma Le, who is hiding in the rubble, and leaves after absorbing Elizabeth. Ma Le saw that there was no one nearby, and boldly walked to the wreckage of Elizabeth's big "chrysanthemum" and put his hand on it. "Huh? Not dead yet? Ma Le was keenly aware that this huge virus organization seemed to be still alive, but the breath of life was already very weak, and if it was left unattended, it should die soon.
Ma Le was ecstatic in his heart, this guy is still alive means that he and Elizabeth are not one, and ...... Can be absorbed! Ma Le walked over to the crack in the flesh and saw that there was a core the size of a human head inside. Ma Le stretched out his hands and tried to absorb it, and countless black tentacle tissues climbed up to that core, instantly disintegrating it, absorbing it, and merging with Ma Le!
"It worked!" Ma Le cheered loudly and excitedly, waiting for the ability increase brought by absorption. Sure enough, soon a sharp pain spread throughout the body, much more violent than when the "Iron Fist" was evolved!
But soon he realized that something was wrong, the pain only lasted a few seconds after the last absorption, but this time the pain lasted for ten minutes, and instead of the slightest sign of lessening, it tended to intensify!
