Every scaly person is a precious compatriot, and the mortality rate of the executive department of the sky island is extremely high.

They can't easily put young people who are not strong enough to fight against dangerous elements; And the scaleless ones who can be consumed at will are not enough to be trusted... As a result, Hudson Marine Mining has been left with the most dangerous tasks to mass-produced drones.

[Annealing nerve center].

The astronomical organization of Hudson Marine Mining Company analyzes and calculates data every day to accurately predict natural phenomena such as rainfall, typhoons, and abnormal waves. But the "buoy" it uses to collect a lot of data is the swarm of drones that it keeps throwing out. In addition to weather drones, it can also control tens of millions of "security drones" at your fingertips.

Regardless of the cost, if the drone wants to maintain the minimum size, the fastest speed, and the highest firepower, it must also ensure that it will not become a tool to be used if it is jumped into control by enemy pilots... Then you can only give them the power to "self-destruct".

For other air islands, the cost of manufacturing and using these disposable drones can be said to be quite high. Although other head offices can afford to use it, they will only use it at critical moments; Shenzhi Heavy Industries, which is able to mass-produce drones from assembly lines, is only arming them as a highly mobile security force.

But this common sense does not apply to Yongquan Island.

As the richest, if not extravagant, Sky Island, and the only one protected by dragons, they have always given priority to meeting the needs of their own island before trading their excess resources to other Sky Islands. As they are cared for by eccentric dragons, they have enjoyed this superior treatment since the establishment of Sky Island a hundred years ago.

How many resources are needed to create these drones, they can also afford it. For them, there is no need to spend money at all - because all kinds of resources are completely monopolized by them. After selling them to other empty islands, these materials became valuable.

A drone the size of a tennis ball can cruise at more than 20 meters per second, and the sprint speed in the moment before the self-explosion can reach 90 meters per second. The explosion range was only two and a half meters within a 120-degree cone, and less than half a meter in the non-main explosion area. It only takes a single shot to blast a half-human-high hole into the exterior wall of a normal building.

And the number of such drones is "unlimited".

Boom –

Boom –

Boom –

Mo Zi Piro hugged Xiao Ya hard, and there were explosions around him one after another.

The white lion's surroundings were surrounded by rippling golden light, and he ran forward with all his might.

Countless drones flew forward with him.

More and more drones are falling from the sky.

In the frightened gaze of Xiao Ya, who stepped over the strangled shoulders and looked at the sky... She clearly saw that the drone that had originally landed towards that neighborhood had split a "small" black stream and slowly fell towards them.

It was really a very small black stream.

But you can't see them until they're closer...... It was at least hundreds of drones that flashed a steady red light and flew like locusts.

"Mr. Strangulation—"

Xiaoya couldn't help but scream.

Like a waterfall slamming into her face, she couldn't help but close her eyes and turn her head away.

An even more violent explosion rolled up from her side. She could even feel her hair being blown by the wind, but she didn't feel anything about the force that was enough to tear her apart.

- That's Mr. Strangler's spell.

She confirmed it clearly.

She didn't know how long the spell would last...... But Xiao Ya was very sure that the moment it disappeared, she would be immediately torn apart by the explosion.

The only good news is ...... With such a dense explosion, she probably didn't feel any pain at all.

The sound waves of the continuous violent explosions were enough to shatter the glass of the surrounding shops. However, the incessant explosions did not affect any civilians hiding in the surrounding shops. People were shocked,

As if watching a god descend into the world, he looked at the man who was bursting with more and more fierce and dazzling golden light, and rushed forward with countless explosions.

Even if he strangled himself, he didn't expect his "Lightless Shield" to become so solid.

It's constantly expanding...... The golden light even engulfed his form, blurring him. He could still feel the burning pain in his skin and the impact of his eyeballs, but now he couldn't even detect the explosion. Even the voice has been weakened countless times. …… Why?

Aphotic Shield...... Was there such an intensity before?

Strangling was a little confused in his heart, but he was also a little emotional.

As a spell he got by giving up the fire of the furnace... Sure enough, its strength should be much higher than the strange thin shell when I used it before.

It would be much more reasonable if this kind of defense could continue to be of this intensity, like a brilliant glow coated with a layer of gold.

Ah, no.

Strangulation reacted quickly.

The powerful should not be himself, but Xiaoya.

The Aphotic Shield is sheltering the two of them at the moment, which means that it is absorbing the light in the hearts of both of them as fuel to drive it.

Hope, friendship, protection, love, faith, courage...

These emotions can be turned into driving force by the aphotic shield.

And Strangling knew very well that there was no such strong brilliance in his heart at all. He did not believe in friendship and love, nor did he have faith or hope...... He was a man of great darkness, born in a place of no light. That's why the shield of lightlessness he got was so fragile and thin.

Now......

This should be the light from Xiaoya's heart.

It's a shame. Strangling thought to himself.

If she could become a mage... With such a brilliant will and such a pure heart, he should be able to become a great mage.

But strangulation also understood another thing.

The pursuit of these drones is probably endless.

No matter how strong Xiaoya's spiritual light is, it is impossible to be extracted all the time without the slightest wavering; She herself was in a state of serious injury and could faint at any moment...... When she was unconscious, the shield of light was about to lose its support.

If this continues, they will die sooner or later.

…… But it's not a big problem.

The only one who is being targeted is himself. Xiaoya is just a hostage captured by herself, and she herself is innocent.

The calm thinking that Strangulation maintains all the time has never forgotten his original purpose.

sent Xiaoya, who was unable to move and was dying, to the hospital.

Of course, if the shield of light is penetrated, Xiaoya is afraid that it will also be blown to pieces in an instant. But there was a plan for the strangulation.

As long as he is at the entrance of the hospital, he uses the sound of the explosion to smash the window and then throws Xiaoya in.

The shield of light was placed on Xiaoya's body—she couldn't be torn apart immediately. But as long as you hold on for a moment, you can safely send Xiaoya out of the explosion range.

Fortunately, these drones on Yongquan Island are more martial arts... They deliberately weakened the blast range, which allowed the strangulation plan to be validated.

"Ahh

He lamented meaninglessly.

Because at this moment, Mahapira suddenly realized something.

So far... This life of oneself, this ugly and meaningless life, does not seem to create any value.

He didn't protect anyone, and he didn't hold any ideals. He did not have a commendable deed, and he did not succeed "without him."

The moment he realized this, he even felt like the explosions were far away.

He was surrounded by the light that surrounded him and Xiaoya, as if he was walking on a pure white avenue of light. Only the hospital in the distance became clear in the pure white world.

That was the end of his life.

- Speaking of which, what did I live for in the first place?

This doubt arose in Mahavira's mind.

He suddenly remembered.

The woman's heartache, pity, self-reproach, sad gaze. so that he didn't dare to look at each other, and he didn't want to see the gaze.

"—it doesn't hurt."

The immature voice echoed in his ears.

In order not to worry his mother, the young Mahapira always replied nonchalantly, "It doesn't hurt at all—"

…… Yes.

Speaking of which.

At first, I just didn't want my mother to show that kind of gaze...
