Chapter 15: The Enemy's Revenge
It was a long night, especially for the two on the balcony.
It's hard enough to endure the body's reactions.
What's even worse is that the movement in the banquet hall has been coming to my ears in a steady stream.
Lechuan was already sweating profusely, and in a trance, he couldn't help but think of the first time he was tricked by the kidnapper Kai into attending this kind of banquet a long time ago.
Even at a young age, he could still guess how erosive this kind of banquet was.
However, the reality was far more than he expected.
That time, he drank only two glasses of wine, and then he suffered the sin of the whole night.
I finally escaped to the balcony, slipped from the balcony, and almost fell down.
Later, find a hidden corner and solve the problem on your own. It was also from then that he discovered that he was not a normal person.
The past is unbearable.
Just two glasses of wine, it's so terrible, and tonight...... Lethe looked down at the autumn in his arms, curled up, trembling slightly.
She drank at least two bottles.
Lechuan couldn't help but worry about this woman, although he himself drank more, he had to hold on.
And she didn't have to endure this kind of torment.
At the same time, Lethe realizes that he has been fooled again.
Everything tonight is not this woman's bitter trick, the so-called honesty is just to make him feel more guilty about her.
She must have seen through his soft-heartedness, so she came out like this.
And he fell defenselessly into this touching trap, and now it was too late to figure it out.
A few days later, all the guests who came to attend the wedding left Yuexian Island one after another.
This small island in a remote corner seems to have returned to its former calm.
However, Lethe is well aware that things will never be so simple, and under the calm, there is a turbulent undercurrent.
On the surface, a group of people came to attend the wedding. Behind the scenes, that blissful banquet has another name.
On this day, Naoki asks Lechuan to help them study the No. 8 steel tank.
In order to view the system data of the No. 8 Steel Tank, it is necessary to have Lethe activate the body, and only Lethe can do this.
When opening the cockpit, Lethe did not rush in, because he suddenly remembered something.
"Old tree, there are some situations that I haven't told you yet."
Naoki saw Lechuan's serious face, so he asked seriously, "What's the situation?" ”
"Before, I drove No. 8 to find Wei Yue's people, and there was a secret in it. I'm reckless sometimes, but I'm not brainless. ”
"I thought it was strange too, I just thought you were carried away by hatred."
"At that time, I was indeed full of anger and remorse, and I wanted only revenge, but I was able to control myself until I ......"
Lechuan said, subconsciously looking at the cockpit of No. 8 steel tank.
"It wasn't until I got into the cockpit of No. 8 and tried to figure out what it was capable of, and it was out of control."
Naoki was surprised: "You mean, it was the 8th who prompted you to do that kind of excesses?" ”
Lethe nodded: "I thought about it, and in the end, I can be sure that it was the 8th that invisibly magnified my hatred and made me completely irrational." ”
"Sounds mysterious."
"I think it's incredible, but that's the way it is. All along, no matter how impulsive I am, I always have to plan before I act, and I never fight unprepared battles. ”
"That's right."
"But at that time, I was like crazy and obsessed, with the intention of death to get revenge, and I didn't care about anything else."
Naoki pondered, "It can affect people's minds...... It's unheard of, it's not high-tech anymore, it's magic. ”
As the two were talking, a sudden rush of sirens sounded.
Lechuan suddenly raised his head, looked outside the warehouse, and said in a deep voice: "This is the air defense alert of Yuexian Island. ”
"There must be an enemy attack." Naoki gloated, "It seems that the kidnapper Kai is going to be at peace." ”
"Don't be in a hurry to rejoice, Kidnapper Kai is in trouble, and we may not be able to stay out of it."
It didn't take long for Lethe's communicator to receive a message from the kidnapper Kai.
After listening to the content of the message, Lechuan pulled down his face: "I'll just say it, don't be too happy." ”
"What did Kai say?"
"Wei Yue's army is about to attack Yuexian Island, and Kidnappee Kai wants us to prepare for battle."
Naoki couldn't help but scold: "This old fox! His chain regiment has so many men, he has to ask us to play. ”
"His own people, the gold is expensive, let us be cannon fodder, why not."
"He's not afraid to push us into a hurry and turn against him."
Lethe snorted and said, "The dozen or so crew members of the Potbelly King are all in his hands, plus my wife, he simply takes us to death." ”
Naoki sighed: "Brother Chuan, with a sister-in-law, you have one more weakness." ”
"Who's to say it isn't, this troublesome woman. But what can I do, I can't fight her at all. ”
"She's really that good?"
Lechuan said with deep feeling: "She's not powerful, she's terrible." I was almost defenseless in front of her, toyed with by her, and made me feel that I was sorry for her. ”
"That's horrible."
"Not only that, but what is even more hateful is that as long as she calculates, the benefits are hers, and the disadvantages fall on my head. That wedding was like that, and so was that banquet. ”
"What banquet?"
"Let's not talk about this for now, get ready to fight, the people who kidnap Kai should be sending the stove soon."
Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, a delivery truck stopped at the door of the warehouse.
The people of the Iron Chain Regiment rushed in to explain the situation, and without waiting for Lechuan and Naoki to make a statement, they took matters into their own hands and moved the energy furnace into the warehouse.
Then, the Crab and the Perseverance began to be loaded.
"We can only play two people." Lethe reminded.
"How many people come out is your own business, and if you can't stop the enemy, don't think about coming back."
"How many enemies are there?"
"At present, we only know that there are five steel tanks."
Naoki suddenly became angry: "Wutai Gangtan, let the two of us go to fight?" ”
"Don't worry, if you are defeated, we will have a backhand."
Wei Yue's attack on Greenland Province has been less than half a month, and he has not been able to completely control the entire province.
Even if it is fully controlled, the northeast border of Greenland Province borders the peak province, and the northwest border borders Canglan Province, and these two neighboring provinces are the best next targets.
There is no need to go far and attack Yuexian Island across the ocean.
Unless, they have to take this step, or they want to go this step more, the latter is more likely.
Perhaps it was because the Chain Regiment assisted in the rescue of Lethe and angered Wei Yue's army.
Maybe it's because, earlier, the kidnapper Kai kidnapped the top-level aristocratic women of Greenland Province, and there was already a conflict with Wei Yue.
There is also a possibility that it is because the kidnapper Kai convened a gathering of the leaders of the major forces of the Water Town Star on the pretext of holding a wedding, which aroused the vigilance of Wei Yue.
In short, the current attack on Yuexian Island by Wei Yue's army is more like an act of revenge.
Lethe River drove the No. 8 Steel Tank, and Naoki drove the Crab Steel Tank, and went to the coast together, waiting for the battle.
Two huge robots of about 20 meters are extremely conspicuous in the battle on the coast.
The steel tanks of the iron chain group also went out one after another.
But they did not go to the front line at the first time, but stood by in the rear, which is undoubtedly the meaning of the kidnapping Kai.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the kidnapper Kai is deliberately trying to deal with Lechuan and wash away the hatred in his heart.
"Brother Chuan, this old fox is bent on killing you." Naoki's grumbling voice can be heard over the communicator.
Lechuan said: "I ruined his good deeds, and almost made him the target of public criticism, he should hate me." ”
"The enemy is coming, more than five steel tanks, fuck, the people of the Chain Regiment are not telling the truth!"
Through the display screen, Lechuan also saw the situation ahead, and there were seven steel tans approaching.
"The enemy's posture...... Old tree, you have to be careful yourself. ”
"Brother Chuan, it's all up to you this time, the enemy is full of fierce beasts, and the performance of the Crab is difficult to deal with."
"I can't stand it, so you retreat behind me. The enemy mothership hasn't appeared yet, so there's no guarantee that there will be more steel tanks behind. ”
The enemy quickly rushed closer, and Lethe immediately activated the battle mode, merging with the No. 8 steel tank.
Residents of the coast are rapidly evacuating, and many are unprepared because of the emergency.
On the upper floor of a villa near the coast, two people were unhurried, watching the battle that was about to take place.
"Sister-in-law, you better go and hide, don't worry about me." Xunhe said to Rin Qiu beside him.
Rin Qiu's gaze fell on the No. 8 steel tank not far away, and said calmly: "If you are worried, I can ask someone to send you away." ”
Xunhe couldn't help but be stunned: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about, Brother Chuan is fighting, as a brother, how can I escape from the battle?" ”
"My husband is fighting, as a wife, how can I escape?"
"I can't talk about you, anyway, if you have any mistakes, I can't explain it to Brother Chuan."
"Okay, stay if you want to, don't urge anyone to leave, watch carefully."
After the fierce beast steel tan of the Weiyue army arrived at the coast, it locked on the No. 8 steel tank as soon as possible.
The strangely shaped steel tank was covered in scarred furrows, and the armor shell was a uniform metallic color, as if it had not been sprayed with protective paint at all.
It's so unique, so compelling.
Especially not long ago, on the coast of Greenland Province, it had fought a fierce battle with the steel tanks of the Weiyue army.
Its prestige has slowly spread among the Weiyue army.
At present, in the face of the No. 8 steel tank, the drivers of the fierce beast steel tank dare not be careless.
The first blow was a volley of artillery fire, bombarding indiscriminately.
However, instead of damaging the No. 8 steel tank, it destroyed a building on the coast first.
Naoki pilots the Crab and acts as the wingman of the 8th.
Because of the Crab's low performance, there was no way to provide effective cover, so it could only find an opportunity to sneak up on the enemy.
The most important thing is to protect yourself first.
After all, as a GT-99 model, the Crab is not only a working body, but also an experimental machine, and there are many equipment that have not yet been verified and perfected.
"Leave me alone, take care of yourself first." Lethe reminded Naoki.
Braving enemy fire, Lethe quickly searched for the weapon that No. 8 was carrying.
If you still can't find a usable weapon, then Lethe can only use the 8th to fight the enemy hand-to-hand like last time.
