Chapter Seventy-Three: Into the City

The afternoon sun is getting a little harsh, but a few people on the mecha feel that they are still lucky.

They jumped off the spacecraft at the edge of the atmosphere almost close to space, and they were still alive when they fell to the ground from an ultra-high altitude of hundreds of kilometers, which is probably the historical parachute jump record of mankind! It's nice to be able to survive back on the ground and meet your companions and have something to fill your stomach!

Along the way, the test machine No. 2 encountered several men in black one after another, all of whom were mecha burned out by the atmosphere, and they were struggling to hike on the grassland in rags.

So there were more people hanging on the fuselage of the test machine No. 2, and Anne simply climbed onto the head of the mecha and sat on it. She thought that the scenery here was unique, so she left the task of shielding the cockpit from Team Doctor Wang, so that he could take care of the sick Bai Jie at any time.

Now the chest and back of the testing machine No. 2 are full of people, just like the three trains of the ancient earth.

In the evening, the test machine No. 2 finally ran to the outskirts of the city of Auckrantis, which was not far from the city.

Tom maneuvered the mech to a halt, and all the men in black jumped off the ground one after another.

Tom also climbed down from the cockpit with Bai Jie.

Bai Jie took medicine at noon, drank fish soup to replenish water, and slept in the cockpit in the afternoon, and now she is almost well and can walk on her own.

After she came down, she counted the number of people, and now in addition to Tom, Annie, Team Doctor Wang, and Lao Liu, there were eight men in black standing at the scene. In other words, almost half of the 23 members of the action team can now be assembled.

This is already a very good result for this risky armed infiltration. It's a pity that except for the test machine No. 2, the other mechs were burned in the atmosphere during the fall, and now there are only a few left called Hanako who don't even have energy guns.

"We can't rush into the city like this, now the Blood Wolf Legion is still under military control on the planet Basel, there must be enemy troops stationed in the city, we will be easily discovered!" Bai Jie said to everyone.

"But if we don't go into the city, let alone find out the news, we won't even be able to find any serious food." Kitchen Lao Liu said worriedly.

His words made all the men in black bow their heads, they hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and now they were all so hungry that they couldn't even walk.

Looking at the current group of men in front of him who were almost as embarrassed as Hanako, Bai Jie sighed and turned his gaze to Tom.

The fat man was squatting on the ground and smoking, and he was running out of cigarettes in his backpack. Especially after picking up eight more men in black on the road, the consumption rate of cigarettes became fast.

"Don't look at me, I'm definitely going into the city, I can't starve here! My idea is simple, save my life first, and then talk about what to do later. Tom snorted the cigarette butt in his hand fiercely, and was reluctant to throw it away until the last puff.

"So what do you say now?"

Before you know it, Bai Jie has begun to become dependent on Tom. Every time it came to such a very unfavorable situation, it was the crooked idea that this dead fat man came up with that finally solved the problem, and the effect was very good every time. So at this moment, Bai Jie subconsciously began to hand over the command to Tom.

"I'll take two people into the city to go shopping and see what is going on, and the rest of the people will stay here to guard the mech." Tom threw the cigarette butt and said to Bai Jie.

"Good!" Bai Jie agreed without hesitation.

In this era of cosmic colonization, military mecha is very large in size and weight, and it is extremely fast to run, it is easy to cause huge damage to the infrastructure in the city, so the governments of the universe have already formulated legal provisions that stipulate that military mecha are not allowed to operate in interstellar cities.

If there is a situation where a military mecha must enter the interstellar city, such as for maintenance or vigilance missions, it can only be transported by a special trailer during the round-trip journey to avoid the damage caused by the military mecha's actions to the city's roads, buildings and various municipal facilities.

Now Barcel has been completely occupied by the Blood Wolf Legion of the Vilia Empire, and all of them are under military control. If Test Machine No. 2 just ran into the city single-handedly and rashly, it would be discovered by the troops of the Veria Imperial Army immediately, and everyone would understand what the consequences were!

"Which ones do you want to accompany you in?" Bai Jie asked.

"There can't be many people, so I'll go in with Anne and Doctor Wang." Tom stood up and said to Bai Jie.

"Why Anne went? She won't even shoot! Bai Jie didn't understand what Tom was thinking.

"The situation in the city is not necessarily very rosy, and it will be easier to disguise a little bit with a woman." Tom explained.

"Then I'll go, let Anne stay, after all, the city is dangerous." Bai Jie bit her lip and said. Suddenly, she felt that the fat man was gone, and she would feel insecure.

"No, I'm going into town with this fat man!" Hearing that Bai Jie was going to grab her place, Anne quit. She is the leader of the intelligence team, and this fat man is her subordinate, and if she can find any information, she can't let the puppet government people get ahead.

Bai Jie didn't expect Anne to stand up against her proposal, and she was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say later.

"Are you well? The city may be full of troops from the Vilia Empire, and it will not be easy to find you a toilet when the time comes. "Tom's cheap mouth seems to itch if he doesn't get angry for a day.

Bai Jie glared at Tom fiercely, and said angrily: "I'm fine, take care of yourself!" ”

With that, Bai Jie went to explain the task left behind to the men in black. Test Machine No. 2 was hidden in a small forest, and the kitchen Lao Liu was appointed by her as the leader of the left-behind group, and the other eight men in black were temporarily under his command.

Before leaving, Tom pulled out an energy pistol from the cockpit of Test Plane 2 for self-defense, with twenty rounds of energy bullets inside.

Then the fat man took a woman, a girl, and a doctor who was still bare, and the four of them walked towards the city of Auckrantis on foot.

Halfway through, Tom asked Doctor Wang to tear open the top half of his tattered jumpsuit and tie Anne around his waist, barely covering his bare buttocks.

Along the way, the four of them looked around like thieves, cautiously, for fear of running into the patrol of the Blood Wolf Legion halfway.

After walking for more than two hours, Tom finally saw a few houses near the suburban farm in front of him.

At this time, it was already completely dark, and the four of them took advantage of the night to quietly touch the door of the house, and they did not dare to knock on the door, who knew whether it was ordinary people living in it or the Vilia patrol soldiers who stayed on the outskirts of the city?

Tom lightly collected a few clothes and trousers that were hanging outside, put one on himself, and then threw the rest to Doctor Wang.

Doctor Wang took his clothes and happily ran to the big tree next to him to change into his exposed combat uniform.

Bai Jie couldn't help but pinch Tom and said angrily, "How can you steal other people's things? ”

Tom rolled his eyes and said, "Dude, give me the money!" As he spoke, he pointed to a few torn notes that he had just pressed under the windowsill with stones.

"I just wonder if the federal money can still be used here now?" With that, Tom waited for the team doctor to change his clothes and came back, planning to go on the road together again.

"Why don't we go buy something to eat?" I didn't eat anything dry in the fish soup at noon, and Team Doctor Wang was hungry again.

"Buy a fart! What do you think is going to travel? Tom rejected Doctor Wang's proposal in a single sentence.

But after all, Tom took them around the houses, and in the end they didn't find anything to eat.

So the four of them had to go hungry and continue walking towards the city.

After walking for more than an hour, the surrounding buildings slowly increased, and several people knew that this was starting to enter the city.

It's about nine o'clock in the evening, and there are black lights everywhere, and there is no one to be seen on the road, not even a cat or dog. Only in the faint moonlight, the shadows of the mother-in-law's trees, and the buildings that were completely unlit and black like monsters.

The whole city is so quiet that it feels frightening.

"The Blood Wolf Legion can't be a slaughter city, right?" Team Doctor Wang rubbed the goosebumps on his arm, feeling that everything around him was quite oozing.
