Chapter 093: This Thing Is Really Fatal
The Tempest was designed with a fatal flaw. That is, the military technologists of the St. Proli Star Sector can't find a perfect design like the researchers of the Federal Military Department, so that the powerful plasma cannon energy blocks and enhanced punisher grenades carried by the Tempester can be well stored inside the Tempest's body.
This flaw makes the Tempest, while possessing several times more firepower than the individual Marauder mech, and at the same time having to take a huge risk of being killed by the ammunition they carry at any time. In other words, once the seemingly tall and mighty Tempest's ammunition depot is penetrated by enemy artillery, it is highly likely to trigger a series of deadly detonations, causing it to tear apart in an instant.
Of course, Haoyi would not have known that the Tempest had such a fatal design flaw. Although, his original intention was also to take advantage of the crotch space under the Tempest's crotch that was enough to get past a siege tank, bullying this clumsy big guy for not having dexterous mobility, so that it could trip itself in a hurry, so as to buy an extremely precious escape time.
Of course, the three poor Tempester armorers never dreamed that such a locomotive would come out of hell and go crazy under their crotch. Unexpectedly, the Tempest's own powerful 300mm cannon actually detonated the ammunition depot stored in the steel arms at close range.
So, the unexpected ending happened in a dumbfounded way.
"Boom!" In the midst of a series of loud noises, the huge head of the Tempester was blown up into the sky, slamming heavily on the building next to the street, and turning into a charred and deformed wreckage with a loud sound. The entire Tempest's massive steel body was also torn apart, with a raging flame that filled the entire block.
Moments later, in the midst of the black smoke and dust flying in the sky, the street, which had experienced the fierce battle of police cars and the Tempest, finally regained its calm, leaving only piles of debris still burning with flames, which crackled weakly.
At this moment, a rapid and noisy sound was heard, and an armored detachment led by several solo raider mechs emerged from the other side of the street.
"Report to headquarters that there has been a battle of unknown circumstances on the third street in District XXX, where a friendly Tempestine was attacked by unknown armed men, with unknown casualties!" A field captain came out of an armored command vehicle, took an electronic telescope and scanned the extremely tragic scene in front of him, frowned, and turned back to a communications soldier and commanded.
Due to Jeff's indiscriminate all-channel jamming order, all the field army units that invaded the city of Felton could not use high-tech means of communication and could only rely on the most primitive manpower to transmit information.
After receiving the order, the signal soldier lowered his head and got out of the armored command vehicle, jumped onto an armed off-road locomotive, and hurried away from the street. The captain, frowning and groaning for a moment, waved his hand helplessly, and turned around with his men and left the battlefield where apparently no one had survived.
"Bang dang!" After another moment, a garbage can in the distance, which had been smashed by a piece of mutilated steel wreckage, rolled abruptly in place a few times, and then, Irene, who was black and dirty, probed out of her head. In the earth-shattering explosion of Shicai, Irene, who was hiding in the garbage can, was smashed and fainted by the wreckage that fell from the sky. In a daze, she seemed to see her father Bertlem, who was covered in blood, and when she heard her mother Monica's screams, she was startled and woke up.
When she got up from the ground tremblingly, the tragic scene in front of her suddenly made her a little dizzy, and she felt weak for a while, and she actually fell to the ground softly.
"Hao Yi ......" looked at the terrifying-looking steel wreckage with terrifying flames, Erin seemed to have a premonition, muttering Hao Yi's name in her mouth, and her somewhat red eyes suddenly overflowed with a crystal tear. Hiding in the trash can, although she didn't see how Hao Yi fought to the death with the Tempest, the violent explosions still made her tremble. In her opinion, Hao Yi obviously couldn't escape the bombardment of the terrifying steel beast, and the wreckage in front of her vaguely seemed to be left behind by Hao Yi.
Thinking of this, Erin's soft heart felt another pain for no reason, and tears flowed irrepressibly down her somewhat dirty cheeks.
She knew that Haoyi once again used his life to save her. It's just that this time maybe she won't be able to see that pale yellow face that is a little stubborn and a little stupid again.
The wind, wrapped in a foul smell of gunsmoke, swept through Erin's long silky hair. An indescribable sourness welled up in her heart, and the eldest lady, who was strong in appearance, finally couldn't help but choke silently.
"Bang dang!" At this moment, in the street, which was littered with the remains of the Tempest's mecha, there was a sudden and crisp sound. Startled, Erin, whose mind was full of Haoyi's figure, suddenly stopped sobbing, stared at her eyes in horror, and carefully stretched her neck to look around.
"Bang, bang!" There was another crisp sound, and this time Erin finally saw clearly, and on the corner of the street not far from the wreckage of the headless Tempest, a deformed and charred steel wreck was violently pushed away, and a blackened humanoid wriggled from below.
"Haoyi!" Erin's eyes lit up suddenly, and she preconceived that it must be Haoyi who had survived, and she didn't know where the strength came from, so she jumped up from the ground excitedly and stumbled over.
The blackened man, who seemed to be badly wounded, was squirming on the ground with difficulty. A light individual armor was faintly recognizable on his body, except that he also seemed to be wearing a holographic helmet on his head that was unique to armored soldiers. Hearing Irene's exclamation, the man seemed to tremble, hurriedly took off the deformed and cracked holographic helmet, followed by a miniature laser pistol from behind him, opened the safety with a click, raised the muzzle of the gun tremblingly, and aimed at Erin, who was stumbling over.
"Haoyi, it's me, Erin!" Erin, who was running over with a deep foot and a shallow foot, naturally saw the pistol with a red laser aiming line, and immediately fell to the ground in a panic.
"Whew!" However, she was answered by a laser beam that almost brushed the ends of her hair. The burning sensation next to her hairline made Erin's mouth open wide in horror. At this time, she finally realized that the guy in front of her who was scorched black and couldn't see the human form was not Haoyi nine times out of ten.
"Whoosh!" As Erin froze in shock, the blackened creature quickly adjusted the muzzle of his gun and saw that a second deadly laser beam was about to fly out of the pistol. At the last moment, a fragmented triangular locomotive part, with a string of whistling sounds, flew from another corner in a whirl, and with a clang, it struck the blackened fellow's head with unmistakable accuracy.
"Whew!" The second laser beam flew out of the muzzle of the gun smoothly, but this time it was high above Erin's head and into the building on the side of the street. And the guy with the laser pistol, after a convulsion, finally honestly lay on the ground again.
“!” The mutation protruded, Erin's eyes widened in horror, and she followed the trajectory of the "hidden weapon" and looked at it from a distance. She had suffered a loss, but this time she didn't shout Haoyi's name again. However, when she saw the figure standing in the corner of a pile of wreckage in the distance, Erin finally covered her mouth and couldn't help but cry with joy.
"Uncle, can you survive like this?" The not-so-tall figure in the distance was none other than Hao Yi, who was wearing light individual armor. The guy walked over shaking his head and yelling at him with a big grin. I don't know if he was scolding the armored soldier who was almost roasted into a sweet potato, or if he was marveling at his hard bones.
On Haoyi's body, except for a small wound on his face that was cut by shrapnel, there was hardly any other wound in sight, and even his clothes and armor were clean, and there was no scorched black mark left by the explosion. It's just that if you look closely, you will find that the edge of this armor is faintly flickering with blue streamers, which is quite strangely gorgeous in the sky that has gradually dimmed.
Haoyi was able to survive again, perhaps thanks to the magical superpower on his body, or the spiritual energy passed on to him by the Star Spirit Divine Stick. If there really is a God in the sky, then he can clearly see how Haoyi "escaped".
When the Wind Rider fired a wave of Punisher grenades to envelop the broken police car, Hao Yi, who had already entered a state of selflessness, suddenly flashed a light blue energy shield on his body. It was this magical energy shield that blocked the bombardment of the Punisher grenade for Haoyi, allowing him to smoothly drive the locomotive to the temporal again.
After that, Hao Yi had an idea in his heart for no reason, and smashed the locomotive console with a punch without thinking, so that the locomotive kept a straight line and rushed under the crotch of the winder. And himself, taking advantage of the stunned mech armor of the Tempest, rushed out of the locomotive with that blue light.
What happened next, as everyone saw, was that the Tempest sent itself into the sky with a single shot, turning it into a torn and headless steel corpse.
"Holy shit, this thing is really fatal!" In the interval between Erin's excited sobs, Hao Yi staggered towards the charred guy on the ground, holding another piece of steel the size of a dinner plate in his hand, and the faint blue streamer on his body slowly dimmed as time passed.
Hao Yi tilted his head to look at the guy on the ground, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, dodged the laser pistol in his hand, and unceremoniously made up a few shots at the poor guy. The armored soldier, apparently surviving, twitched again, and finally straightened up motionlessly.
"Hey, Miss, don't cry! Lao Tzu is still alive and well! Then, Hao Yi came to Erin with the pistol and shook his head, tilting his head and leaning over to comfort him.
"Woo...... I thought you were dead, scared me to death! However, what Hao Yi didn't expect was that this graceful eldest lady suddenly pounced over, suddenly hugged Hao Yi's shoulders and cried vigorously, like a wronged child.
"Auntie, be good, don't cry!" Feeling the soft body in his arms, Haoyi suddenly covered his head, and comforted him incoherently.
"Bang ......" However, a crisp sound suddenly came from the building behind Hao Yi.
