Chapter Twenty-Three: Pons Bridge? Pickle girl artifact!

Xiangjiang, the slum of bones.

Neden, a black snake dressed as a ninja, walks side by side with a man in massive power armor.

The power armor was large and heavy, with a triangular raised grille at the head that looked impressively defensive, and flamethrowers, pulse rifles, and grenade launchers attached to the arms, creating a fierce aura in the face.

This is the famous "anti-alien combat suit", MAX "Berserker" power armor, Wieland Tangya Company specially created for the alien hunting team, a power armor that was evaluated by Fu Qinghai as "nothing but acid-resistant alloy".

Although almost all of the people who littered the skulls were not good, the passers-by around them were still in awe of the ironclad giant, not only because of the evil aura emitted by the other party, but also because of the PPDC logo painted on the armor shell.

"Dude, to tell you the truth, I've only been here once, and I don't know if I can find Lauster."

Nayden babbled.

"Don't talk nonsense, just lead the way."

Matthew, a black man, said in a muffled voice.

It is said that the controller of this power armor is locked inside the armor, and usually survives on nutrient solutions and stimulants, and is forced to sleep when there is no fight, so the life span of the controller is very limited, and it is not as good as a good brother of fifty yuan.

So Nayden didn't care about the other party's attitude.

"I thought I could get a set of power armor for free, but I was deceived by Wieland Tangya Company into becoming a human consumable, and Nigo was a slave wherever he went."

Nayden thought disdainfully.

According to Fu Qinghai's request, Nayden wants to find Lauster, and the clue points to Hannibal Zhou, who has been missing for a long time, and the Xiangjiang Skeleton Slum is the place where the famous monster black market merchant was last seen in front of people.

After much investigation, Naiden finally targeted the old and dilapidated harbor warehouse in front of him.

Hannibal Chow's gang had previously used it to transport specimens and wreckage of monsters from overseas, and it was the only place that Nayden and Matthew hadn't searched.

"Nayden took a look, and the truth was immediately revealed."

Naiden muttered in a low voice, pulled out a katana in his hand, and cut off the lock of the door with a "choking", and before he could push open the rusty and blackened iron door, a hiss came:

"Squeak-"

"Damn, something!"

Nayden slashed at the unidentified creature that swooped in.

Then he looked at the juicy body at his feet.

"Monster parasites?"

Nayden asked, confused.

Monsters are known to have parasites—and Nayden saw many of them when he was Hannibal Chow's bodyguard. The most common is skin lice, which are about the size of a small dog, but Nayden is very sure that the thing in front of him is not skin lice.

First, they were larger, about a meter long, like a large fat and round armored snake, and secondly, Naiden picked up one and looked closely, and what he saw was not an ordinary mouth, but a pointed mouth that was divided into three lobes like a turtle's mouth, with hundreds of small saw-shaped teeth spiraled inside.

Before he could come up with an answer, a series of "squeak" cries rang out in the dark warehouse, one after another, and a large number of unknown creatures frantically rushed towards the gate.

"Treat all unknown creatures as aliens!"

The black man Matthew roared, and the overhead lights were instantly lit, and the white light made the warehouse unobstructed, and the dense little monsters poured up, and they were instantly shattered and juiced by the bursts of bullets from the pulse rifle.

"Dada......"

Matthew continued to fire until the chain was empty, and then activated the flamethrower and grenade launcher, and the crimson pillars of flame swept through, and explosions rang out one after another......

But there were so many monsters that more and more monsters emerged from dark corners and basements, jumping up and down, swarming outside the abandoned warehouses and starting to wreak havoc on the streets of the skeletal slums, attacking passers-by everywhere.

There was chaos, and the whole neighborhood was in chaos.

People screamed in panic and ran, dodging these sudden hordes of small monsters.

"How were they released? It can't just be because I cut down the door, right? ”

Nayden swung his twin knives, thinking as he fought.

In addition to resembling snakes, these monsters also move in a similar way to snakes, in addition to sliding, they can roll themselves up, bounce on the ground, climb over high walls, break through glass, and jump onto rooftops.

Although the mobs' mouths resemble drill heads, their heads cannot rotate, but can only move back and forth quickly, and their limbs have claws attached to them that allow them to burrow into the skin more easily when attached to the host.

These monsters are like ticks after a full meal, spewing a lot of monster blood when they burst - wait, blue monster blood, so who's feeding them?

Out of the corner of his eye, Naiden suddenly caught a glimpse:

A figure in a cloak raised his hand to open the skylight on the top of the warehouse, then leaped out and disappeared.

"Raust!"

Nayden shouted, immediately gave up slashing the insects, jumped on the roof of the house, and chased after the man.

Matthew, a black man, shot monsters frantically to earn assimilation points - it was rare to meet something that he could beat, and he ignored the departing Naiden and continued to fire with a sinister smile.

The monster poison blue in the bug's body has no effect on the acid-carrying alloy armor shell that has been tested by alien blood for a long time.

But Nayden doesn't think so.

He is a traitor to the Pioneer faction, and killing these monsters will not give assimilation points at all, and he needs to find the alchemist behind the scenes to complete the task assigned by Aoyama.

"King Kong is not bad Dazhai Master"

Nayden walks briskly through the streets while pressing a button on his watch, which has a built-in positioning device that can send his location information to others in real time.

Finally, after turning around and walking through the streets and alleys, in a narrow and cramped dark alley, Naiden saw the figure of the man, who was already waiting here, with his hands folded behind him, his back to Naiden, putting on a high-ranking demeanor, and said lightly:

"Naiden, I really didn't expect it......"

Sure enough, it was Raust's voice!

"Didn't you think I wasn't dead, Lauster?"

Nayden stared at the other party's back and gritted his teeth.

The other party shook his head slowly and said:

"I didn't expect you to betray your own camp, just to be a dog for Qingshan, it's really sad."

"Second, I didn't expect you to dare to track me alone, it seems that the lesson I gave you is not enough."

Don't mention the fact that the mission you arranged almost killed me...... Nayden was angry in his heart, and said fiercely:

"I'll admit I'm no match for you, Lawster, but do you think I'm going to be stupid enough to catch up alone?"

Nayden's voice just fell.

"Boom!" There was a loud bang.

A tall and fit dark green figure fell from the sky, standing in the alley, a beautiful woman of two meters five, wearing only a simple vest and shorts, a pair of wonderful eyes stared closely at Lauster's back, rubbed his hands, and said:

"I've been looking for you for so long, and I've finally found it...... You can hide, shrunken turtle. ”

The slum of bones was full of Hannibal Chow's eyeliner, and Naiden and Matthew walked in almost swaggering and open, naturally worried about startling the snake.

So arrange for Jiang Yixia to hide outside, and after receiving the signal from Naiden, he will enter the bone slum to clean up Lauster, and kill the alchemist of this cunning rabbit cave in one fell swoop.

In the Warhammer 40K universe, Raust alone forced back the trio of Chen Xinlu, Jiang Yixia and Li Xingxian, because he took the lead in penetrating the essence of the subspace part and mastered the mystical skills of using psionic energy to cast spells, and Chen Xinlu and Li Xingxian were two ordinary mages who relied on "rule infection".

And the Pacific Rim universe is a pure science fiction universe, where the magic power is greatly weakened, and a Sith warrior without a lightsaber is not afraid of the female Hulk at all.

With or without lightsabers, for the Sith or the Jedi, the difference is really big. Darth Vader once gambled with Tarkin on the Savage Alien Planet, Tarkin gathered nineteen top bounty hunters to besiege Vader, and after Vader killed seven, the lightsaber was accidentally robbed, and then he was captured by Taggin - as strong as the Lord of Darkness, without the lightsaber the combat power would still be greatly reduced.

In the face of Jiang Yixia's menacing, Lauster was not afraid at all, and only heard him say with a smile:

"Fools, do you think you ...... I wouldn't know that you Jiang Yixia is here too? ”

As he spoke, "Lauster" turned around.

Naiden's eyes widened slowly.

Beneath the cloak and hood, there was a man with a bitter face, similar in shape to Lauster, but completely different in appearance. Nayden knew that this man was one of Hannibal Chow's bodyguards.

The most striking thing is that on the man's neck, there is a protruding fleshy throat, and it is that throat that shrugs and makes a Raust sound.

"Toot-"

In the distance, the steamer's whistle sounded.

“BOOM!”

A remote-controlled bomb under the bodyguard's cloak exploded.

Naiden hurriedly lay down to dodge, but Jiang Yixia brazenly broke through the fire and smoke of the explosion and ran straight to the beach.

She-Hulk was very fast, and in a few strides, she came to the pier on the shore and looked at the speedboat in the distance.

The speedboat was speeding towards a large container ship in the middle of the ocean, and the real alchemist stood on the speedboat, smiling and waving at the woman on the pier, and making a lip shape:

"Silly female Hulk."

"!"

Jiang Yixia clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out.

On Lauster's neck, where it should have been his throat, there was a black mechanical bionic vocalization device embedded in it - his real throat had been blown apart along with the bodyguard.

He is worthy of being a three-material alchemist.

The means are magical.

Jiang Yixia calmed his face and took out his mobile phone to dial the phone.

…………

Downtown of Chuzhou.

The latest flying monster, codenamed "Elytra", this third-level monster hatched from the belly of the "poisonous woman", is wreaking havoc among high-rise buildings, and the complex terrain is not convenient for fighter jets, and the army has dispatched helicopter gunships.

However, the gunship group is no match for this monster at all, traditional weapons are difficult to penetrate the monster's skin, the "elytra" is extremely fast, and the steering is extremely flexible, only to see it cleverly clinging to the top and side walls of the building, and then stretching out its feet and pounced on a helicopter that went around, crashing the helicopter into another tall building, followed by a bang.

The monster came so fast that the government didn't have time to arrange an evacuation, and the citizens were running in a panic in the streets, and the helicopter swarm seemed to be launching a suicide attack on the monster, but in fact it was buying time for the citizens to evacuate.

This newborn monster seems to have a high IQ, not only does it know that it can't be beaten to escape, but it is also very playful, playing hide and seek between the buildings and the helicopter group.

One moment he used his wings to set off a strong wind and blew the helicopter crookedly into the building and crashed, and then suddenly came out of the cover, and exploded the helicopter with a hook of claws......

Until the roar of the giant thing piercing the sky sounded.

"Elytra" seemed to sense something, and suddenly fell on the roof of the building, the three pairs of wings trembled violently, and a piercing scream came out from the mouthparts: "Crunch crunch......"

In the sparse clouds, the mecha hunter "White Scar" carried three groups of rockets in parallel behind his back, one large and two small in parallel, strictly speaking, called "pod boosters", which were whistling and flying rapidly, and the raging wind poured into the cracks of the head control module, blowing Fu Qinghai and Zofia into the hair.

"Death !! for the master"

Fu Qinghai shouted angrily.

In the sky, the "white scar" raised the chainsaw sword in his hand, and the Vulcan giant explosive bomb in the upper abdomen spilled countless dense torrents of metal, at this time, the tracer bullet can guide Zofia to correct the trajectory, and the girl concentrated on controlling the weapon, using the large barrage to block the flight path of the "elytra" in advance and compress its maneuver space.

The monster may not have expected the mecha hunter to catch up so quickly, and was a little dazed for a while, and was about to jump up and flutter its wings and fly away, but it was doused by the rain of giant bombs that fell from the sky.

Zofia is a popular streamer specializing in shooters, even without the assistance of the fire control system, with the naked eye and the trajectory correction of tracer bombs, the space around the monster can be blocked to death-

"Shooting" is such a thing, sometimes it is indeed necessary to talk about some talent, and the feel and heart are indispensable.

It was right to choose her as the co-pilot.

The wind pressure when the mecha hunter landed was already following the barrage, and the "elytra" was covered in potholes and blue blood, and bent its legs to flick up against the baptism of the explosive bomb.

Fu Qinghai looked at the direction of its ejection, and threw the chainsaw sword in his hand with a bang, and the square giant sword that did not rotate "banged......

The "elytra" were nailed to the wall of a tall building.

It's like nailing a fly.

The sword body pierced through the monster's body, submerging most of it, the monster's body twisted and was firmly fixed there, the huge blue compound eyes lost their brilliance, and blue blood slowly flowed down the wall.

At this time, the dust that the mecha hunter raised when he landed was raised high, and it spread outward with the ring-shaped tornado, spread, spread...... Until it slowly falls silent.

The "white scar" pulled up a foot, and beneath the giant mechanical foot was a huge pit and a few cars crushed into a thin discus - thankfully there were no passengers inside.

[You have killed the monster "Poison Woman" and reached the stage milestone event!] 】

Start Counting Assimilation Points...... 1239 points】

[You have killed the monster "Elytra" and reached the Stage Milestone Event!] 】

Start Counting Assimilation Points...... 2768 points】

The prompt tone of the reincarnation world is long overdue.

It's over.

It's finally over.

This time it's really over.

The tall mecha hunter was in tatters, standing motionless on the streets of downtown Chuzhou, with orange street lamps at his feet, surrounded by sporadic lights of high-rise buildings, dilapidated buildings, flames burning, fierce battles suddenly ended, and the whole city seemed quiet.

in the head control compartment.

Fu Qinghai and Zofia quietly looked at the night scene of the city outside the crack, the night breeze blew gently along the crack, and the cabin was quiet, only the occasional abnormal sound of the equipment.

They defended the city.

This is a city that belongs to the local indigenous people.

Suddenly, there was a feeling of ...... "where thousands of lights are shining, but nowhere is where to return", these natives of the reincarnation world, their cheers, their cheers, their joys and sorrows...... It may not be the same as the reincarnation.

Zofia slowly took off her helmet and combat uniform.

And the synaesthesia connection was disconnected.

The girl slowly walked behind the man, stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around him, put her head behind his back, and whispered:

"Change back."

With a "snort", Fu Qinghai unlocked the locks of the combat uniform, the white armor pieces unfolded and faded, and the probes were pulled out of the nerve interface one by one, Fu Qinghai's naked upper body was wet, steaming hot white.

He pulled out the Pym Ray pistol from his waist, turned himself back to the appearance of one meter nine, turned to face the girl, the two of them were like each other, Zofia stepped forward and hooked his neck, Fu Qinghai put down his arm and held her waist.

The two hugged fiercely? together.

Zofia's short hair was sticking to the white head one by one, I don't know if it was soaked by sea water or sweat, her eyes were closed, there were droplets of water on her fair face, and her body exuded a warm smell after sweating, which smelled good.

"Boom Woo Woo ......"

The noise of propellers sounded outside the crack, but the two of them were deaf, still immersed in the beautiful atmosphere of spiritual communication, PPDC's rescue helicopter arrived, followed by the helicopter of Monster Eye TV, large and small helicopters surrounded the head of the mecha hunter, and the rescuers were shouting the names of Fu Qinghai and Zofia with a megaphone, and the white searchlight beam shone in along the crack in the mask.

The pitch-black head control compartment was illuminated.

It also just happened to illuminate the ......

A man and a woman hugging each other? The sight.

The flash crackled.

"Tomorrow's front page headlines, book again ......"

At the door of the helicopter side, a reporter put down his professional camera and muttered to himself.

The rescuers who originally planned to lower the cable and land on top of the mecha hunter's head also slowly stopped their movements when they saw this scene, not wanting to disturb the pilot team who had gone through a life-and-death battle.

The ruins of a monster-ravaged city, the mecha hunters who have endured terrible battles, and the two embracing lovers in the head control pod...... A touch of romance in cruelty.

Pacific Rim: Love and Mecha Hunters.

At this time, an inopportune bell interrupted the two of them - the Blue Shell Power Armor from behind the head control cabin, which was the emergency escape pod that Fu Qinghai had prepared for himself.

The two finally woke up, Fu Qinghai let go of Zofia, wiped his mouth, walked to the back of the head control cabin, picked up the helmet of the power armor and put it on, Jiang Yixia's voice sounded in his ears:

"Aoyama, Lauster ran away."

"To be specific?"

"He escaped to an ocean-going freighter in an unknown direction, it was supposed to be a ship controlled by the monster cultists, and it might take the help of satellite positioning or some other means to find him."

Jiang Yixia said in a deep voice:

"I know this may not be difficult for PPDC, but time, Aoyama, once the time drags on, this guy will probably disappear again, and he will be found again......"

Jiang Yixia's words were not finished.

But Fu Qinghai already understood.

It makes no sense to send PPDC's people alone to capture Lauster, they may only be able to capture a group of monster believers - because PPDC can't stop a reincarnation of an alchemist + Sith warrior at all, only Fu Qinghai and Jiang Yixia have the ability to fight and defeat Lauster alone.

"I see."

Fu Qinghai said lightly.

After saying that, he hung up the phone, turned around and walked back to the round platform in the driver's seat, put on his combat uniform and helmet again, and then said silently in his heart:

"Qing Ming, show the monster's blood reserves."

"Pod Booster, Monster Blood Fuel Reserve Remaining: Five Tons, Expected to Support Flight Journey......"

Qing Ming quickly typed a string of characters on the holographic projection.

"Co-pilot, get back to your place."

"Roger, co-pilot is in place."

"Okay, then let's ...... Let's go! ”

The mecha hunter, who had been motionless, turned around and walked towards the open space of the city as the energy core began to run again, the metal creaked, the mech trembled and hummed.
