In the dark, desolate land, old rusty railroad tracks wind their way to the lightless distant horizon.

"Whew-"

The sound of a fierce wind blew abruptly, rolling up the dirt and small stones along the railroad tracks, rolling farther away.

In the originally pitch-black world, a few flashing blue dots moved quickly along the rails, white armor coating, sharp edges and corners, bent and oppressive mechanical feet stepped on the rails, and the wheels side by side on both sides pushed the tall mecha, under the fierce wind pressure and resistance, galloping at high speed on the rails, with the rotation of the rail route, the high-level AI carried inside the mecha constantly calculated the changes in gravity and angle, adjusted the center of gravity of the mecha, and made it move steadily at full speed.

[Received the signal from the Security Command Center of the North 4th District, is it connected?] Yes / No]

A display screen pops up in the cockpit, and then the 'Yes' option lights up, and the screen jumps to a clear display of text.

[The target of the operation has been updated, the hostage signal has disappeared, the destination 'T-894' area is listed as an untouchable zone, there are no more legal federal residents in the area, the security lock of large weapons has been lifted, and the resistance encountered in this operation can be killed according to the situation, the interpretation of this mission belongs to the Security Command Center of the North Fourth District, the first extraordinary situation response strategy room, and has been authorized by A-3 level.] ]

When it was displayed, a miniature map icon appeared at the bottom of the screen, one of which was prominently red, along with a line of small letters next to it, 'Zihuai Mining Company No. 134 Calcite Mine'.

[Mission Update received, B-28 team approaching its destination.] ]

Then the screen turned off, three tall mecha galloped in the fierce cold wind, the blue indicator light that flashed before was replaced with red, and the laser barrel that was originally locked on the back of the mecha was now released from the physical buckle and began to prepare for charging, and the built-in energy indicator also slowly showed that the rise was slowly advancing from 0% to 65% to be activated.

At this moment, on the far other side of the pitch-black earth, there are two lone floodlit towers, and the white light illuminates the huge pit, and its terrain is like a mosquito coil under pressure, but the tall and straight gray-yellow rock walls are much more majestic than the mosquito coil circle.

"It's all your fault! It's good now, this fucking bastard is dead, the only hostage is gone, and we're all going to die with you! ”

In the open space illuminated by the floodlights, two men in blue overalls fought together, their bodies covered in white ash and a little dark red and dirty blood.

On either side of the two, there were five or six men in blue overalls, some of them looking numb, some of them sitting on the ground with their heads covered, and some of them banging vigorously on the wheels of a large truck parked nearby, venting their fear and anxiety in their hearts.

On the huge mechanical excavation arm that stopped on the side, a man in a suit was hanging and strapped, his head was unnaturally shrugging at the moment, there were many marks of beating on his body, and there were sticky blood dripping from the bottom of his trousers.

If you zoom out of sight, you can still see the hovering car that turned over on the ground in the dark, its front was knocked up, and the body also had traces of being smashed by a huge force, and the driver's driver and bodyguard had already died, as can be seen from the work card on his chest, this is a sequence 4 transcendental, but when an accident occurs, it should be someone in the car, and he was directly stoned to death in the car before he had time to dodge, and many abilities have not been exerted and lost their mobility.

"How did I know he was so unbeaten! Didn't you say that the rich all have emergency life-sustaining drugs and devices, and the results are all farts! The scuffling duo struggled on the ground, one of them had a bloody nose and swollen eyes, and he grabbed the other's wrists and tried to push the other down to stop the other from continuing to beat him.

"You stupid pig! I shouldn't have been hot-headed and risked with you in the first place, no one wants you to be single all your life, and I still have a wife and children! The middle-aged man who was pressed to the ground writhed and struggled, and the hot air he exhaled blew up the dust on the ground, and then caused a heart-rending cough.

"Damn it!"

"Don't, don't fight, what now, the boss's son died here, he will definitely not let us go." The person who had stood trembling and panicking before finally came to his senses and spoke nervously.

"Hmph, that old man, now in his eighties, has long been out of business, probably lying in a high-end hospital with a life support tube."

"The boss's son, heh, this guy is the fourth in line, I guess his brothers wish he was dead, so there is one less person to divide the family property." As old employees of the company, although they are in this remote desert all year round, they also know a lot of things in the company.

"What to do, now I know what to do? Why didn't you see you being so rational just now, this bastard is dead, we have no hostages in our hands, what else can we do, according to the laws of the Federation, the death penalty can't escape, even if there is no death penalty, do you think just a few of us can live in prison with peace of mind? ”

"Stop dreaming! If it was an ordinary case, no one would pay attention to a single prisoner, but we killed the heirs of the mining company, as long as those people greeted the prison authorities a little, to ensure that you and I could live a life worse than death in prison. ”

"But, but, isn't there protection in federal law, I mean, the prison police are not afraid of being investigated if they do this?"

"The law can control the police, but it can't control other people in prison, if you are in prison, someone tells you, as long as you torture someone well, and when you come out, you will be given a large sum of money, or a rich return, will you agree? As long as you hesitate, you should know that someone will definitely be tempted. As if venting his dissatisfaction, the man said a lot in one breath.

After listening to his explanation, the fragile man collapsed and sat on the ground, as if he had lost the ability to think, and just looked at the dark world outside the floodlight.

"Is my life over......

Some of them tried to escape, but when they got into the driver's seat of the truck, they let go of their arms in frustration.

Where can they escape in such an empty wilderness, as long as the sky is bright, the satellite can quickly locate their location, and they don't know how to survive without being a legal resident of the Federation.

Among these people, the highest strength is only Sequence 3, and it is still a very inferior core template, and the ability can basically only be used for work, and it is of little benefit to the battle, and it is a dream to rely on this violent agency against the official.

Just when these people lost hope and were about to wait for death or be captured and imprisoned, the sound of propellers came from the sky, and then a tough figure jumped directly from the sky, fell to the ground on his knees, and then stood up.

Wearing a gray-green jacket and old jeans, short black hair and clothes, the man kicked the oil drum in front of him, and the empty steel oil drum burst in an instant, split in half by the man's strong leg wind, revealing the silver and white metal torn inside.

Such a loud sound and momentum immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and they looked at the man with his hands in his pockets in confusion and panic, only to see that the other party calmly took off his dustproof sunglasses, revealing a pair of black and oppressive eyes, as if they were legendary monsters named 'Dragon'.

"Hey, I think you guys must need help, don't you?"

Although it was a kind word, from such a mouth, everyone knew that such kindness would probably require an extremely high price, and the only thing they could pay for those who had nothing to pay was the remaining life.
