Chapter 281: A Place Where the Flames of War Flow

Richard leaned over and moved quickly along the street corner with his head down, ready to evacuate the battlefield that was riddled with bullets. On the way, I passed an overturned food stall, and what looked like a knife fell to the ground. Richard picked it up, then cut the rubber rope that bound him.

The entire market has completely become a battlefield for the Imperial Storm Troopers and the Rebels. "Xiu Xiu ......" The beams of light fired by the blasters on both sides flew in all directions. In the end, the stray bullets flying everywhere were borne by innocent civilians.

Richard, who had cut the rope in his hand, peeked out from behind the food stall to observe. As soon as he poked his head out, with a "boom", a stray bullet flew past Richard's cheek. In a panic, Richard covered his face and hid behind the food stall again, and saw his reflection from a piece of broken glass on the ground, and now there were "scars" on both sides of his face, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Chapter 281

"Doesn't this rebel army care about the lives of civilians?" said Richard, wiping the blood from his face.

"Hey, yes. These damn rebels will sneak up on convoys, regardless of time and place. Last time I was doing business in the West Market, I ended up with them sneaking up on a convoy. I didn't expect to move here and meet them again!"

Richard followed the voice of the voice, and saw that it seemed to be the owner of the food stall, peeking out from under a table that had been turned over, and talking to Richard. And the appearance of this stall owner is like a "frog", that is, a "frog man" with open hands and feet......

"The Imperial Miscellaneous Reinforcements are coming, everyone pick up the 'Kaiber Crystal' and retreat!" a whistling sound came, and then the sound of the exchange of fire became louder again. It seems that the rebels have once again suppressed the Imperial Stormtroopers.

Richard poked out again, and saw dozens of agile rebel warriors jumping out of various buildings in the market, and these rebel warriors, under the cover of their companions, ran towards a huge chariot that had overturned to the ground.

Li watched as the rebel warriors removed a palm-sized rectangular object from their bodies and threw it at the reversed chariot. Immediately several explosions rang out, and the overturned chariot was blown open a hole, and the rebel soldiers ran over and carried out one box after another from it.

"That box should be filled with 'Kaiber Crystal'......" Li looked at the actions of the rebels, and guessed based on what he had seen and heard before and after.

"It's a long time! These rebels have overturned the 'Imperial Assault Levitation Tank', there must be officers in it, and the reinforcements of the Imperial people must be coming soon, run! Otherwise, they will be arrested and become scapegoats!" As he spoke, the "frogman" lifted the table, got up from the bottom, and went down a small alley.

Richard, of course, would not stand under the dangerous wall, and followed the stall owner's route into the alley. As he was about to enter, Richard turned to look and saw a large group of Imperial Stormtroopers in the distance driving some kind of bipedal machine to kill them.

(The bipedal machine Richard sees is an AT-RT walker, measuring 3.2 meters tall, belonging to the Sentry and Pathfinder type, piloted by the Stormtroopers, and equipped with two blasters.) This mechanical energy transforms a single Imperial soldier into a powerful anti-infantry unit. However, the two-legged and open-cockpit walker was primarily designed to be used as a reconnaissance tool, and its speed and thick armor allowed an Imperial soldier to easily pass through a swarm of combat robots. It was used in campaigns such as Kashik. It was the predecessor of the AT-ST, which was common in the Galactic Civil War.

Because they are too small to pose a threat to large armored targets, all-terrain reconnaissance walkers (AT-RT walkers) are often used for tasks such as police, civil defense, or cleaning up the battlefield. Due to its thin and light size, it can run faster than the AT-PT (All-Terrain Personal Walker), but lacks the armored cockpit of its slower sibling model. The AT-RT walker has a single burst laser cannon installed in the front. )

As the guns and explosions behind him grew quieter, Richard knew he was out of the danger zone. Stopping to hold on to the wall to catch his breath, the stall owner had already run away, and he was already disoriented as he shuttled through the alley in all directions.

While Richard lamented that he was out of danger, he couldn't help but have a headache because the buildings here were too dense. Eventually, I finally got out of the alley and came to a crowded market. Watching all kinds of humans and humanoids walk around, all kinds of cries and cries are endless, and it seems that the battle in the distance will not have any effect on this place at all.

Walking along the crowd, Richard hid his curiosity, but his eyes were still looking around. All sorts of strange races and humans live together here. Merchants on both sides sold things and food that Richard couldn't understand. Especially the food, some of which look very disgusting, is just a large handful of tentacles thrown directly into the pan and fried. However, the smell of this is coming from it, and it seems that this thing might be delicious?

Passing by some strange-looking races. Rationally saw a kind of life (AI robot) composed of steel and so on, a bit like the kind of alchemical life created by a crazy alchemist in his own world. Some tall and thin men wrapped in red robes were blocking passers-by and preaching some kind of religious belief.

Of course, the most are the patrolling Imperial Stormtroopers and Imperial Mechs, as well as the machines that fly in mid-air to indiscriminately detect passers-by.

As soon as Richard stepped onto the street, he was stopped by the detection robot, which shot some kind of red light from it, and then began to examine Richard. Richard was nervous because he knew he was a "black man". Just as Richard was about to burst out, the red light that scanned it turned to blue light, then retracted it, and the probe robot was gone.

(Richard meets the Belly Serpent detection robot from Star Wars.) The probe robot has six anti-gravity drive units and a long-range, full-range all-image signal transmitter, which can send sound, image, and data to the receiver of the star destroyer with an unobstructed transmission antenna. The Star Destroyer's expensive communication devices can clearly receive information from afar. After the defeat of the Empire at the Battle of Yawen, the Minister Vader ordered the deployment of thousands of exploration robots to unknown and uninhabited planets, finally discovering the base of the rebels in Hoth. The Empire then forced the rebels to retreat at the Battle of Hoth. )

Richard was puzzled, and finally blamed the "Lord God of Bliss" for sending him here, and at the same time giving himself his identity in this world. Richard breathed a sigh of relief and continued to wander the city, searching for the people he needed to contact for his mission.
