Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Knight's Debut
Newt's face was red when he was scared, and he couldn't get off the stage, so Li Oran rescued the scene in time and said:
"The professor just wants to find a way to defeat them from the monsters, and now that he's half of the battle, the remaining half will be done by the Knight of Hope for him!"
As soon as these words came out, Newt burst into tears, "Finally someone understands me, Lore, I believe you will definitely become the greatest mecha warrior!" ”
Li Oran smiled faintly, and there was infinite longing in his heart.
……
People feel that time is unusually long in anticipation, and the young students in the dormitory look enviously at the back of Li Oran leaving, they understand that after today, two new mecha warriors will be born, and their opportunities are not endless.
Hall of the Broken Dome.
Everyone waited nervously.
A few minutes later, Li or Ran and Qi Mengge stepped into the maintenance area for the first time to put on their exclusive battle suits.
The driver's suit is a modern high-tech fit, with a multi-layered structure inside a small suit.
The innermost layer looks like a diving suit, and the surface of the suit is covered with neuronal sensors, which can effectively capture the driver's thinking and behavior, and the instructions of the brain can be perfectly transmitted to the power system of the mecha.
The driver is firmly attached to the cockpit's motion platform by the suit's outer armor, and the driver's command is mainly done through sound and projection.
Li Oran is holding a white helmet in his hand, this completely enveloped helmet can synchronously transmit brain information, complete the synaesthesia between drivers, and is the core of driving mecha.
Li Oran pressed the "Confirm Correct" button on the combat uniform, and then the voice of the command room came from his ears:
"Good morning, dear warriors, are you ready?"
"Ready!"
"Good, ready to launch." Pantycoster's voice came.
"Ready to launch, sir!"
Release the dropper. Li Oran looked at Qi Mengge and said.
Both of them pressed the button on the command console at the same time.
With a rumbling sound, all the anchors on the Knight of Hope's armor were disconnected, and a huge hole was cracked in the dome.
The huge roar of the Eagle helicopter sounded, and dozens of lifting ropes were successfully put into place.
"Start carrying, target 3 kilometers of coastline." Orders came from the command room.
The Eagle helicopter immediately rose into the sky, hoping that the knight mech was pulled into the sky.
Li Oran looked at the coastline that was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but get nervous.
"Arrived at your destination, ready to land the impact!"
"Bang...... Snap ......"
All the fixed locks were loosened, and the mecha fell instantly, "boom......"
"Whoa......
The mecha landed steadily in the sea like a rock, and the huge impact force shook all the surrounding sea water back, causing a wave of waves.
"Smoothly in place, mecha smoothly in place!"
Cheers from the command room were heard.
The first step was successful!
"Soldiers, I'm Marshal Panticost, this is your first time operating a mecha, so make sure it's safe." The commander's voice came, and his voice was serious:
"Prepare for neuronal docking!"
The hologram in front of Li or Ran's eyes appeared as holograms of two brains.
“3、2、1……”
The countdown went to zero, and they entered the world of synaesthesia.
Countless images passed like flowing water, and the feeling of the real mecha and the simulated training cabin was completely different, and here he felt the power of memory more deeply.
"Perhaps, what do you want to eat tonight? Mommy does it for you. The mother in my impression looked at me kindly.
"I want sweet and sour pork ribs...... There is also braised pork, and there is also ......"
The young Li Oran pouted in his memory, his face full of happiness.
"Mom's ......"
Li Oran muttered, he remembered the small mountain village in the past, the green fields, the morning glories in the mountains, and the dandelions in the wind.
There is also the string of wind chimes hanging in front of the door, the crisp ringtone, the old yellow dog squinting under the wind chimes......
"Li Oran, wake up, wake up!" Qi Mengge kept shouting, trying to pull him out of the abyss of memory.
However, it was all too happy for him to go out.
The picture turned the pages quickly, and Li Oran saw a scene that made him heartbreaking.
"Probably...... Run, run! ”
Her mother's face was covered in blood, her father's corpse was behind her, and countless demons chased after her from afar.
"Nope! Mom, I'm going to take you with me! Li Oran put his mother on his back and ran forward with difficulty, but how could he run past the four-legged demon?
Soon, his mother was dragged down by demons, and he was surrounded until a group of passers-by rescued him, but his mother was seriously injured and had no hope of living.
"Mom! Don't go! ”
In the memory, Li may be crying mournfully.
At this moment, Li Oran in the cockpit burst into tears, after this memory, he was even more reluctant to go out, and fell into deep guilt and self-blame.
"Li Oran, don't fall into it! Quick, come out! ”
Qi Mengge's shouts were drowned out.
"Warning, the left hemisphere link of the brain has failed."
In the command room, Panticost's face turned black, although he was originally black-skinned, but now it is even more exaggerated.
"What about the other one?"
"It's also unstable, Lilith has been negatively affected by Lore, and gradually entered her own memory storm."
Qi Mengge found himself lost after many useless attempts......
She empathized with the pain suffered by Li Oran, and for a while, she remembered her mother.
On that rainy night, on her birthday, her mother was killed outside the house carrying a beautiful cake, and the blood and rain were mixed together, and it was impossible to tell the difference.
The cake rolled on the side of the road and shattered, she cried in despair, holding down her mother's wound again and again, but the blood kept spurting out, that kind of despair, taste it again.
"Warning, the right hemisphere link of the brain has failed."
"Bang!" Panticost slammed his hands on the table, "The initial run failed, pull the mech back." ”
His tone was mixed, with a mixture of disappointment and some self-reproach.
"Maybe I'm in too much of a hurry! They're just students. ”
In the cockpit of the "Knight of Hope", as the synaesthesia was disconnected, both of them came to their senses, they were silent, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
"It's all my fault, I'm sorry!"
Li Oran took off his helmet tiredly, his eyes were empty, he didn't expect that he would experience that terrible scene, something he had wanted to forget countless days and nights.
"Perhaps, we need to get to know each other better." Qi Mengge stepped down from the sports platform and gently put his right hand on Li Oran's arm.
"yes, I thought I was out of it......"
"By the way, I saw your mother, if it weren't for me...... You won't be in pain anymore! Li may blame himself.
Qi Mengge didn't speak, her chin rested on Li Oran's shoulder, and said sadly:
"All my happiness stopped at that moment, on that bloody rainy night."
"Knock Qiang ......"
The Flying Eagle helicopter at the base returns to pull the mech into the sky once again and return home.
In the base, everyone was holding back their anger, "What a fighting master, he can't even drive a mecha, wasting the time of so many of us, it is better to continue to develop the 4th generation mecha." ”
After the "Hope Knight" stopped, Li Oran looked at the excited crowd below in the cockpit, and said with a wry smile:
"I'm afraid we're going to be street rats now."
In the maintenance room, the two of them took off their exclusive armor and equipment, and the staff members faced each other coldly, although they didn't say anything unpleasant, but their expressions already showed everything.
Li Oran pulled Qi Mengge away in a gloomy way, and ran into Pantycoster in the aisle.
"Sir, I'm ...... We failed and failed to live up to your expectations. Li may be full of apologies.
Panticoster turned around, carried them on his back, looked at the "Knight of Hope", and said in a deep voice:
"Humanity is moving on the corpse of failure, and it is better to fail than to die in the mouth of a monster."
With that, he left a long back and disappeared at the end of the hallway.
Leaving Li Oran to savor it in place, "What does he mean, we still have a chance?" ”
"Hmm...... Sounds like yes. Qi Mengge frowned and thought.
"Hehe, that's good, tomorrow we will continue the simulation training, and we must practice the degree of cooperation!"
"Good!"
A sonorous voice echoed through the hallway.
"But before that, let's have a good talk, untying the knot is the key, otherwise once synaesthesia we will fall into painful memories." Qi Mengge insisted.
Li Oran hesitated for a second, nodded in agreement, and only by facing the hardships of the past can he continue to move forward fearlessly.
So, the two found an empty corner and sat cross-legged on the ground.
At this time, the sky had already turned up outside, and many people were clamoring for Li Oran to come out to explain, who would have thought that the initiators would talk in the corner.
"Let me start with it, I basically saw your things when I was synaesthesia." Qi Mengge spoke first.
"My grandfather was a retired veteran who was one of the top ten councillors of the Federation before the fog fell."
"Councillor!" Li Oran's pupils shook, and said incredulously.
"Don't interrupt me!" Qi Mengge looked at him angrily and continued:
"Later, it was calculated, and several other parliamentarians voted to kick him out of parliament, and then there were frequent killers in the family, and it wasn't until my mother was killed that my grandfather completely stayed away from politics."
"And what about your father?" Li Oran asked curiously.
He ...... Soon after my mother died, he married the daughters of the three families of the Tenglong Group, and fostered me in my grandfather's place, no longer caring about my life or death. Qi Mengge gritted her teeth and said, her words full of hatred for her father.
"And, as far as I know, my grandfather was kicked out of the council because my father was caught, and everything was caused by him!"
Li Oran was silent, and Qi Mengge felt the bloody wind and rain in just a few words, and there must be a huge conspiracy in it.
