Chapter Seventy-Two: Machinery
"Damn it!" Lu Yue was taken aback. "What's that?"
Suddenly, the light above everyone's heads clicked and flickered, then suddenly went out, followed by another light, and soon all the lights in the vicinity showed this phenomenon, and as they went out one by one, the darkness quickly covered it.
"Hide!" Tang Ning hurriedly pulled Su Qi to hide behind a pillar, and Lu Yue also dragged Tang Jian to the back of a shelf, they picked up their weapons tightly and stared at the direction of the staircase.
But the staircase was surprisingly quiet, and the monsters that were chasing everyone just now seemed to have disappeared.
"They've crawled away!" Tang Ning quickly located those halfling monsters with the help of Tang Jian's ability. "They're out of here."
"Don't take it lightly." Lu Yue moved his mouth slightly, even if the voice was so small, Tang Jian could let it reach Tang Ning and Su Qi's ears. "What's that glowing blue?"
"Those things seem to fly," Downing subconsciously covered his ears, "but they don't look like living things." ”
At this time, a blue light began to approach this side, and Lu Yue finally got a glimpse of its true face: it was a cube-shaped drone, about the size of two basins. There was a bump on the front and back of the thing that was glowing blue, as if it was searching for something, and Lu Yue noticed that there was a huge iron box welded on each side of the thing, which was simply painted with a layer of yellow paint, which looked very old.
In addition to this, the drone had a lot of strange tentacle-like bumps on its head, and there were two extremely inconspicuous spouts underneath the iron box, as if it relied on these two things to complete the flight.
"Damn it!" Tang Ning didn't know how many times he had said these two words along the way, "What kind of high technology is this, humans can't make this thing at the moment!" We're in trouble! ”
"If you don't fight, you have to fight!" Lu Yue stared closely at the blue light that was getting closer and closer, he put down the iron box and clenched the rifle in his hand.
The drone could send out search beams in four directions, but this also meant that its speed was extremely slow, Tang Ning waved his hand to signal Su Qi to step back, he quietly unloaded a trash can from behind the pillar, and nodded to Lu Yue in the dim light.
Lu Yue still had a staff sword on his body, but he wasn't sure if this thing would be useful for this kind of steel and iron bones, so he picked up his rifle and aimed it at the flying ghost.
The drone slowly flew into the middle of Tang Ning and Lu Yue, saying that it was too late and that it was fast, Tang Ning grabbed the trash can, aimed at the thing and smashed it!
"It's now!" He shouted: "Shoot!" ”
The trash can was not full, but at such a close distance, it still managed to deflect the drone a distance, Lu Yue almost put the muzzle of the gun on its surface, and he and Tang Jian immediately pulled the trigger.
"Files!"
Mars exploded, and that thing wasn't damaged in the slightest!
"It's broken!" Tang Ning yelled: "Hurry up..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the pillar he used as cover was suddenly blasted by something, and his body flew straight out. The drone instantly stabilized its movements, and those blue lights all turned red at once, and at the end of those small tentacles, several small missiles the size of paper bags were fired in an instant, directly hitting a few people!
Lu Yue didn't even react, the muscle memory left by Xu Wen had already made a judgment, he immediately grabbed Tang Jian and turned over along the floor, as soon as he flipped over, those small missiles exploded behind him, and the floor was instantly blown out of a deep pit!
"Bang!"
Lu Yue looked up and saw that Tang Ning actually got up, he was covered in injuries all over his body, and he raised his pistol to fight, just enough to make the thing change direction.
"You guys get out of here!"
"Run!" Lu Yue hurriedly pulled Tang Jian out of the shop and ran towards the depths of the mall, that thing was beaten by Tang Ning all over the body, but there was no sign of damage!
However, in the end, the human beings still took advantage of their speed, and the four of them immediately turned to a corner behind the shop.
"I can't do it!" Tang Ning pointed to the depths of the mall next to him, his clothes were all damaged, and he had a wound on his arm and calf, but fortunately the pillar just now helped him resist the impact of the explosion. "Xu Wen, look, there are also this thing in other places!"
Lu Yue cautiously poked his head over, and he found that the mall was full of those patrolling drones, and the blue lights were particularly conspicuous in the electrified world, and there was no blind spot at all.
"The one in the back is coming!" Suki broke out in a cold sweat with fright, clutching the dagger tightly in her hand. "What to do..."
"Fourth floor!" Tang Jian's eyes widened suddenly, and she heard the sound of these things flying on the fourth floor. "There are no such things on the fourth floor! Safe there! ”
"But if we do, we won't be able to get back in the car!" Lu Yue whispered his suspicions.
"I can't care so much! If we delay any longer, we will die! Downing pointed to the stairs ahead where the power had gone out. Look for a chance to go up! I'll count the distance! ”
