Chapter 63. Look at me
Except for Ifrit, who consumed some fuel, the other operators basically didn't make much moves, and the slightly threatening crystal cluster monsters were quickly killed by several ranged attack operators, and Rhode Island's support team maintained peak combat power.
Behind the mudstone was eight huge clay figures, large and small, Zhou Jinru looked back and suddenly understood what it meant to dig three feet into the ground......
"Can you control so many clay figurines?"
"It's not about you!"
Zhou Jinru pressed the headphones: "Everyone retreats in an orderly manner and gives way to the frontal battlefield to integrate the movement!" ”
The trust between the two sides was almost zero, and the mudstone did not adopt Zhou Jinru's theory, and even created a bigger pit.
"Doctor, what do we do now?"
A few Operators walked around the advancing clay figurines, slow but huge enough to be scary just to look at.
"We continued to retreat, and all the personnel of the fourth squad got into the car first, and the others squeezed and returned to the command camp."
Zhou Jinru didn't have the heart to continue, the main purpose of his trip was to test the novelty made by the equipment department, and it was just an accident to help integrate the sports line.
This is already the forefront of natural disasters, and soon geological disasters will spread, and it will be too late to leave.
Just as Rhode Island was retreating, Mudrock's subordinates followed behind the mud figures, stopping the next wave of impacting source stone worms, and no more crystal cluster monsters appeared.
Zhou Jinru couldn't cry or laugh: "Could it be that those things are all aimed at me?" ”
The drone landed in the containment box in front of him, he took off his goggles, a cool breeze blew, and a strand of hair on his forehead was raised, and a layer of mist was faintly floating in the deep night.
"Is the Kingkiller coming?"
Director Sai, who was in charge of the security project, glanced at it and said angrily: "Don't be suspicious, it's just a normal fog, and it will disappear after dawn." ”
Zhou Jinru was still not at ease: "The first few cars will go first, and my car will be broken." ”
The clay figures summoned by the source stone technique of the mudstone in front of them were like no man's land in the source stone insect swarm, and after easily crushing a large group, they went forward and filled in the deep pit, almost filling it up.
Cadres of the integration movement with special abilities still have a hand.
Zhou Jinru sighed, the high platform descended, and he watched the carriage above his head close and turn into a multi-functional transport vehicle again.
Rumble!
There was a sudden loud noise outside the car, and then countless mud, sand and stones fell from the sky, hitting the shell of the carriage, crackling, Zhou Jinru grabbed the headphones and asked loudly: "Why did it blow up outside?!" ”
"I don't know......" Before the gravel could finish speaking, as if he had seen something, a panicked voice came again, "Okay, so big, I saw a source stone worm that is three stories tall, and it is still breathing fire, and the explosion just now was caused by it!" ”
Pompey......
Zhou Jinru only had this word in his mind, he had seen it countless times in the dream world, and every time he dealt with it, he relied on the solidity of the rigid shield to carry the damage and kill, except for the time when he was in Xista, he didn't expect to see it again now.
A burst of meteors suddenly fell in the dark sky, but in Zhou Jinru's eyes, what kind of meteor was it, it was clearly a meteor fire shower sprayed by the Pompeii source stone worm!
Countless meteor-like fireballs fell like scattered flowers, smashing the ground into deep pits, and the fairly smooth road surface suddenly became potholes, and there were even unburned flames burning.
The mourners who climbed into the driver's seat did not have time to pull their seat belts, and drove the transport vehicle around the empty street at an acute angle of 30 degrees, narrowly avoiding the coverage of an explosive fireball.
"Is the doctor alright?"
There was no response in the carriage, the undertaker looked up, there was no one else in the rearview mirror, the doctor was not in the car, and neither was anyone else.
There were six people in the transport, but they all ran down at the last minute.
After staring at the empty carriage for two seconds, the undertaker decisively turned the wheel and turned back.
……
……
Zhou Jinru didn't know why he wanted to turn back, the moment the Pompeii source stone worm appeared, a lot of pictures appeared in front of his eyes, and his legs involuntarily rushed out of the carriage, followed by Angelina, gravel, breeze and Yanke.
Others can still understand that Zhou Jinru can keep up, but the last Yanke is very surprised, in the limited communication between the two, Yanke does not have much inclination to join Rhode Island, although he has used all kinds of hints and indiscriminatory means to coerce Yanke, but the effect has not been ideal.
"Don't you understand why I got out of the car?"
The Yanke's eyes flashed with fanaticism: "Compared to you, that big guy is my target, and the real swordsman must have a matching enemy!" ”
"That's not a person."
Yanke's pride and grandeur were sluggish, and he said coldly: "I'm also interested in the guy behind you, Bo~Shi~"
"You have a chance, but not now."
Zhou Jinru turned to look at the ten-meter-tall Pompeii Source Stone Worm, and could clearly feel that everything that happened in the dream world was still profoundly affecting him, whether it was strengthening the firepower configuration of the operators in Rhode Island, or attaching importance to the life safety of the operators, he always felt that it was not enough, not enough, or not enough.
It wasn't until now facing Pompeii that Zhou Jinru realized that he had walked so far and never let go.
His actions caused a long-pent-up anger among the retreating operatives, and the first to show up was Kelsey's student Yaye, who yelled directly at the headphones, "What are you going to do?!" Satellite cities want to be heroes, so is San Martin, and here is too, if you become a hero, you can die with peace of mind, right, then you can die! ”
Zhou Jinru didn't have time to say anything, his headphones were taken off by the senior senior operator puppet behind him, and a long sigh came out of the filmmaker's hoarse throat: "You should look back, we are behind you." ”
Four transports went and returned, several lights shining on him, and more than twenty operators disembarked with weapons in their hands and gathered around, waiting for orders.
"According to the regular combat plan, the sniper operators and special operators will act together to clear out those weak and small enemies scattered around, and you will cooperate with the peace of mind, you need your group spell attack."
Ifrit couldn't wait to say: "What about me, what about me, what about me, Uncle Ben is already itching!" ”
"You wait a little longer, the Pompeii Source Stone Worm is full of high-temperature lava in its body, it is good at spell attacks, and its own magic resistance is extremely high, your spiritual dissolution must cooperate with Serea's calcification, but in this way, the damage received when close is too high has become a big problem."
"You even look down on Uncle Ben's strength! Wow! ”
Zhou Jinru pressed her head, which caused the little fire dragon to be dissatisfied for a while, but because Sereya was next to her, she didn't return the color.
"So now we need someone with a strong physical attack?"
Zhou Jinru nodded: "At present, according to the information I have learned, Pompey's magic resistance is extremely high, and conventional spell attacks can hardly work. ”
Breeze glanced left and right a few times, there were no people with high physical attacks among the Rhode Island operators present, although the attacks of the undertaker were high, he relied on two shotguns, not to mention the close attack distance, the iron sand shot out may not be able to cause effective damage to Pompeii, whose whole body is kept at a high temperature.
"Let me do it."
Sereya clenched her fists, which moved Zhou Jinru for a while, and the King of Fighters was finally willing to put down his shield and become a guard, which was touching.
He still shook his head and said, "No, the main force attacking Pompeii is only me, and you are not suitable." ”
But just then, a dull voice came from the other side: "What do you think of me?" ”
Holding the mudstone with a square war hammer in both hands, Zhou Jinru noticed that the armor on her front was scorched black, and after activating the shield, her whole body was shrouded in a gray light film, and the long handle of the war hammer was flowing with scarlet light.
"You've been hit head-on by Pompeii's attack, do you think you'll be able to block the damage?"
Mudstone said in a deep voice: "The attack pattern of this monster is strange, the fireball is stuck on the body and there is attached damage, and it will always consume the shield, if it weren't for my special source stone skills, the shield would have been broken now." ”
"Yes, that's my concern," Zhou Jinru glanced at the operators present, "That's my concern, being broken at close range, there is almost no chance of escape." ”
Yaye asked, "Is it safe for you to go on in person?" ”
Zhou Jinru said categorically: "I have this confidence. ”
"Let me go."
Mudstone weighed the hammer in his hand and continued: "The commander shouldn't be in danger himself, I'm at my peak right now, my shield is full, my physical attack is at its highest, you just need to tell me where to attack that big guy." ”
"Don't you know the characteristics of the source stone worm? This thing is full of body except for the head, and you can do damage by hitting it with your body, but remember that if the shield is too low, you must retreat immediately, and I have seen many people die because they want to kill this thing as soon as possible. ”
When the mudstone stacks up with an attack, the multiplier can reach a staggering 360%, and in the game, only an operator who can dodge or lock her can block her hammer, which can be described as terrifying in four words.
If she uses this power to beat Pompeii, the picture is too beautiful, Zhou Jinru can't imagine it, since Muyan is volunteering now, he has no reason to refuse.
"Everything is going according to plan, be careful, Pompeii's attacks are almost irregular, so the pressure on medical care will be great, everyone must pay attention to safety."
As his actions began, the operators were in a roar, each going about their respective duties, and only Gravel was still standing by his side.
"I should keep you safe now."
Zhou Jinru shook his head with a smile: "I'm safe now." ”
"Nope."
Gravel shook his head slightly: "You will put yourself in danger, you are the most unstable factor." ”
Zhou Jinru leaned on the side of the carriage, turning a dagger in his hand, which was a weapon he used for self-defense, and said slowly: "All the efforts I have made are for the lovely operators to live a better life, and I have a clear conscience." ”
"It's not easy for a person to have a clear conscience, and to be able to say this sentence from your mouth, but do you know that sometimes having a clear conscience is the most uncomfortable."
The gravel that had already taken off the armor did not have the great strength before, but she still pushed Zhou Jinru hard, pressed him on the carriage, tiptoed, raised her face, and her big eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
"What if I want you to have a guilty conscience?"
"Gravel."
"Call me by name."
"Senomite, you should know what I mean."
"I don't want to be clear, doctor, you have always been bound by your own morality, pursuing a clear conscience, your ideals are too beautiful, this is a very cruel world, take the Rust Belt people as an example, except for those refugees who have been evacuated to the block, no one can say how many people died in the natural disaster, you said that Mr. Russell prepared two paths for the Rust Belt people, one is to get on the boat, the other is to join the integration movement, in my opinion he actually prepared a third way, or obey his family, Either follow the integration movement or die, do you have to have a clear conscience for people like this? ”
Lil said a lot of words in one breath, it seemed that she had been holding back in her heart for a long time, and now she saw a gap, so she said it all.
For the first time, Zhou Jinru had the feeling that this girl might have more thoughts in his heart, and he retorted: "Russell Timos can only be regarded as a business partner, not an operator, let alone a friend. ”
"I don't care!"
Gravel pressed over, wrapped his hands around Zhou Jinru's neck, kissed the corner of his mouth at a very fast speed, and a smile flashed at the corner of his eyes: "Selfish person, you haven't apologized to us yet, this can only be calculated as interest, I will take it back what you owe me this time, get ready." ”
Miss Groundhog disappeared in front of Zhou Jinru, leaving only a warm patch at the corner of her mouth.
"You're right, I'm a selfish person."
"You are indeed a selfish person, the last time I saw you, your selfishness hurt many people, but now this selfishness has evolved into a concept of self-protection, and it still hurts the people around you."
Serena stood not far away, apparently seeing everything that had just happened.
"Director Sai, I think you should also be a selfish person."
Serena was silent for two seconds, and there was something more in her eyes: "Hemmer thinks the same way, she thinks that if I had been tougher at the beginning, maybe the tragedy would not have happened, in fact, you should be able to let go a little more, don't be afraid that the operators will be injured, and don't be afraid that they will encounter danger, sometimes it is a mistake to protect too well." ”
The white dragon and Zhou Jinru stood side by side, meaningful: "I thought about it for a long time to understand this truth, being too conservative may not be a good thing, and you are the same." ”
"No wonder you're already comfortable letting Ifrit use that power."
Serena didn't shy away from it: "The power from the fire demon, I can even feel the fire demon in her spiritual world, there is no harm to that child, there is no need for me to prohibit her from wielding power." ”
Zhou Jinru sincerely admired:
"Director Sai, I finally understand why you can harness such a powerful force."
