Chapter 141: Preparing to Enter No Man's Land
The team walked forward for a while, and now the guerrilla ranks were getting closer and closer to the huge black steel columns.
Suddenly, Tom spotted dozens of small red dots flashing from the radar scanning detection system of the test machine No. 2. Tom knew that this was still the same Imperial Army's mech brigade, and they had dug out the cracks in the ground that had been buried by the explosion, and they were chasing after them from behind.
Tom quickly used the communication channel in the team to convey the news to the people around him, and the crowd suddenly began to panic again!
In fact, we can't blame the guerrilla logistics personnel and their families for being cowardly and afraid of death! Ask yourself, who in this world is really not afraid of death? It's just that when death comes to you, many times people are forced to accept it. If there is still a choice, even if there is only the last glimmer of hope left, I believe that the vast majority of people will fight for their own chance to continue to live.
The guerrilla team has picked up speed again, and Emma's Glory Mech and the three Echo Electronic Mechs are now running wildly! At this point, they can no longer care about the feelings of those who are riding on the trunks of dead trees! I can't save my life, whether I sit comfortably or not, of course, it doesn't matter at all.
It didn't take long for the guerrillas to finally come to a huge black steel pillar under the rapid running of five mechs. The line stopped.
The logisticians and family members who jumped from the dead tree trunks all looked up at the tall giant steel pillars with surprised faces. Between the steel columns, there is a strong electromagnetic field, so it seems that a colorful light curtain has formed in the air! This kind of light curtain is brilliant and gorgeous! It is as if it is no longer an illusory electromagnetic protective cover, but a large piece of colorful curtain wall that has been materialized soaring into the sky, and the scene is very spectacular!
But now is not the time to enjoy the scenery, the guerrilla logistics officers, with the help of mecha soldiers, quickly unloaded a dozen huge packages from the backs of five mechs, and when they opened them, there were seventy or eighty life support systems.
This life support system consists of a space jumpsuit and a helmet with an integrated oxygen supply system, a food and hydration system, and a communication system. Although its functions are not too much, it is enough to ensure that after wearing it, a person can safely get out of the energy defense shield of the interstellar city. However, although it can survive temporarily, the survival time is directly related to the amount of oxygen supply and food supply system retained.
The dozens of life support systems that the guerrilla officers have now unloaded are filled with oxygen and water, so that an adult can survive in a no-man's land for a day and a night, that is, 24 hours.
Of course, if one relies on walking, it is certainly impossible to get to Doha in just 24 hours. The city of Doha is more than 300 kilometers away from the city of Auckrantis, and according to the average speed at which a person can walk five kilometers per hour, even if he walks all the way without eating, drinking, resting or sleeping, it will take at least three days to reach the city of Doha, and by that time, the person will have died in the middle of the way. Oh no, I hung up before I was halfway there. But there are still five mechs in the guerrilla team, as well as the two large dead tree trunks that Emma led people to retrieve, and it is no longer difficult to complete the more than 300 kilometers with the speed of the mechas!
After the team stopped, the guerrilla officers distributed dozens of life support systems to everyone on the scene as fast as they could, including the pilots in the mechas!
Although Tom's testing machine No. 2 is equipped with an oxygen-assisted supply system like the brave mech they brought from the capital star, Emma still forced him and Bai Jie to have a set.
Because the other Glory Mechs and Echo Electronic Mechs of the Guerrilla are not equipped with oxygen assist systems. After all, the Gloria guerrillas don't have a space fleet yet, and their tentacles have never been extended to outer space, so this oxygen assist system has not been applied to the battle mech.
Tom didn't want to wear that bulky hazmat suit and helmet, but Emma persuaded him.
Because although the mecha oxygen auxiliary supply system on the test machine No. 2 can ensure that the people in the cockpit will not suffocate due to lack of oxygen, the shell of the mecha may not be able to form sufficient and effective radiation protection for the people in the cockpit in an all-round way.
You know, the atmosphere of Basel is very thin, and the cosmic rays from outer space are very strong! These intense cosmic rays can cause serious radiation damage to the human body, and those who are infected with all kinds of strange diseases will be infected with all kinds of strange diseases, and then die in a few months or a year; What's more, this cosmic ray will kill you in a short period of time, turning you into a lonely, cold corpse lying in no man's land!
After listening to Emma's advice, Tom had no choice but to follow the example of the guerrilla logistics officers next to him, and also put on a protective suit and a helmet.
Originally, the cockpit of the mecha of the test machine No. 2 was very cramped, but now that Tom and Bai Jie are wearing protective suits, it is even more crowded. Especially those two helmets, they are simply close together, making the very simple action of two people even turning their heads, and now it is very, very difficult to do!
Not to mention kissing, of course! Separated by two large helmets made of super-strength tempered glass, where could Tom touch Bai Jie's lips, he could only lick the glass through the helmet now.
It didn't take long for all the sixty-odd people in the team to put on their life arrest suits and fully sealed helmets. There were still more than thirty sets of protective clothing and helmets left, and the guerrilla logistics officers quickly packed them up and rehung them on the back of the mech as a backup, just in case.
In fact, when the team set out from the secret warehouse of the guerrillas, in order to reduce the burden of supplies, the logistics officers prepared only one set of these things for everyone present at that time. But it's a pity that after two ground crack blocking battles, more than 20 guerrilla mechs and more than a dozen men in black died in the battle, so now there will be more than 30 more life support systems.
Because the cost of such things is not low, these things are still very precious to the guerrillas who have always faced a shortage of materials. Therefore, the logistics officers of the guerrillas chose to take them all with them.
And if these things are not taken away, they cannot be left in place, they must be destroyed immediately, and they must not be left to the Imperial Army that is catching up behind! Otherwise, after they also wear this life support system, then it means that the Imperial Army's mecha team can also step out of the energy defense shield of the star city to continue the pursuit.
