Chapter 123

The voices in the channel mixed together, and all the mechas rushed towards the initial entrance leading to the ground. Large rocks fell from above, and the stability maintained by the border army for a long time seemed to be about to collapse in the final bombardment. No one expected that Ying Chenlin would dare to move forward in such a dangerous situation, and even risk being pierced by the tentacles to dig out the pollutant energy crystal.

The operation of that mecha was too extreme. They watched it pass through the protective shield of the tank mecha, and watched it make the final resistance against the pollutants, switching between cannons and swords during the extreme operation. Unexpectedly, it dug out the crucial energy crystal from the pollutant tissue that was about to regenerate.

Such a result was something they had never expected. The pollutant that lost the energy crystal did not die. Its proud regeneration ability began to weaken at this moment. Rooted in the ground, it completely led to the collapse of the entire space.

Everyone in the control room came back to their senses when Ying Chenlin was performing the extreme operation of digging out the energy crystals, and everyone immediately devoted themselves to the current rescue. The surface of the base station that the border troops had been trying their best to maintain was collapsing twice. The border troops located above the ground were desperately using various equipment to maintain it, especially in the room where the fusion weapons were located. Every border soldier held on until the last second.

"Can the speed of the landslide be slowed down?"

"The emergency maintenance device has been activated!"

"The suspension device is activated!"

"We can't protect the entire underground space!" A staff member turned to look at Director Kolya, "Director, the underground space is about to collapse!!!"

All the mechas were positioned very close to the inside, struggling to move outwards amidst the frenzied tentacles of the polluted air. The communication channel was in chaos, and everyone was thinking about escaping quickly, escaping outwards.

The rubble that fell from great heights smashed onto the mechas in the underground space. KID and Ji Feng's tank mechas were almost completely destroyed, and only Lin Yao's mecha was maintaining the final defense. The border army's tanks flew to Luxi's side and helped her resist the tentacles. Other border soldiers also opened a safe path for them.

Ji Qingfeng and Zhao Lejie were the first to escape to the entrance. They dragged Huo Yan, who had no ability to resist, and turned to look at the Border Army mechas that were left at the back. "Fuck, no, there are still mechas behind that haven't come out yet."

Zhao Lejie looked up and said, "No, if we don't leave now, this place is really going to collapse."

If you are being pressed in here, there is also a base station pressing down on you, judging from the degree of wear and tear on most people's mechas now. The mecha's shell cannot hold out until other rescuers arrive, so it can be said that it is a dead end.

The communication channel was buzzing with sounds. Yuan's emergency system opened the emergency cabin after the mecha was damaged, and a steady supply of oxygen came out of the oxygen cabin. Ying Chenlin landed in the cockpit. His mental connection with the mecha was about to break. Although he was obviously very tired, he still did not close his eyes.

"...The border troops are still behind us." Ying Chenlin said weakly.

You Su: "I know. This is not the first time that he has stayed behind to die as a border soldier."

There was a gap on the field of view screen inside the mecha, which was pierced by the tentacles of the pollutants, and the smell of gunpowder from outside seemed to come in through this gap. Ying Chenlin looked at the mecha getting farther and farther away, and the buzzing sound in his head became louder. He did not suffer any harm under You Su's protection. Theo flew quickly over the falling rocks and tentacles and evacuated safely.

You Su didn't say anything. He was flying backwards, carrying Ying Chenlin through danger, while still holding the sniper gun in his right hand.

In the cockpit, the man's expression was as calm as ever. The sniper gun's scope was open, locking onto the retreating Border Army mechas among the falling rocks in the distance.

Theo shouted anxiously: "This place is going to collapse. Can the passage be maintained?"

In the main control console, all surveillance images were broken. Everyone could only listen to the crackling sound in the communication channel and the blue signal on the radar representing their own mecha. No one in the control room dared to speak on the channel. They had already made all the preparations. Only the mecha masters were left to evacuate from the underground cave. Old Qiu stood guard in front of the control panel until the last moment. His old figure seemed to lower his head a little, "Be sure to stay safe!"

KID and Jifeng had already evacuated from the core of the cave to the entrance where they first entered the cave. Luxi was the last one to come out.

, I turned my head and saw that the Border Army mechas behind me were evacuating one after another, "Hurry up!"

Ji Qingfeng saw the mecha at the farthest point, and his pupils shrank slightly, "——The one with the surname Lu is at the back!"

"Sister Xi, take good care of Brother Huo." He handed Huo Yan's mecha to Lu Xi, turned around and rushed back into the cave.

As a soldier of the border army, he is also the main leader of this operation. Lieutenant Colonel Lu believed that as the leader of the soldiers, from entering the restricted area to entering the cave, when the base station was no longer his primary protection target, his duty as a soldier was to protect the safety of others.

He fell behind everyone else, blasting away the falling rubble with his energy cannon, and watched the other mechs evacuate to relative safety.

"Lieutenant Colonel!" a border soldier shouted.

Lieutenant Colonel Lu looked up at the cave that was about to collapse. The root range of this pollutant was not only in the cave, but its roots might have extended to the exit. He realized something and shouted urgently: "Go now! The passage is about to collapse--"

Before he could finish his words, falling rocks from above and tentacles from the left came rapidly towards him. Lieutenant Colonel Lu hastily avoided the tentacles, but it was too late for him to raise his cannon to smash the falling rocks. As he was about to be hit by the falling rocks, memories of eight years ago suddenly emerged in Lieutenant Colonel Lu's mind.

This helpless scene seemed to have happened 8 years ago. 8 years ago, he was a new recruit in the special forces and followed his superior to the restricted area to perform a mission. However, in the end, his superior stayed there forever to protect him.

The falling rock is about to hit you at this critical moment.

The gun mecha shot out a beam of light as fast as the wind from more than fifty meters away, and the sniper gun accurately hit the falling rock above Colonel Lu's head. The huge falling rock broke into several pieces in front of Colonel Lu's eyes. At the same time, a binding sickle passed through the rubble and wrapped around the right hand of Colonel Lu's mecha, carrying the mecha through the attack quickly, and finally completely shattered.

"KID! Why did you come back?" Lieutenant Colonel Lu was stunned.

"Damn it, my restraints are completely broken this time!" Ji Qingfeng pulled the thrusters to full blast: "A real man never explains why he saves people. I can't stand it most when someone is more handsome than me. I want to be the most handsome one who saves people."

But before he could finish his words, a sniper shell in the distance brushed past Ji Qingfeng's head and hit the fallen rocks behind him. Ji Qingfeng yelled, then rushed in front of Lieutenant Colonel Lu to clear the way, "Brother You!"

At this time, the sniper cannon in the distance fired one shot after another, shattering the fallen rocks above the two fleeing mechas.

The white mecha's sniper cannon was locked accurately, and each shot blasted the road in front of Ji Qingfeng like a point.

Lieutenant Colonel Lu saw the white mecha in the distance. He saw that the other party was holding Ying Chenlin's mecha with one hand, while the sniper gun in the other hand was still charging. He looked at the other person, and seemed to see the rebellious young man from eight years ago in the mecha.

There is never a shortage of geniuses in the special training camp, but since Colonel Lu joined the army, he has only seen one genius, You Su, who dares to carry double-cannon weapons and run rampant in the special training camp.

Ji Qingfeng: "Brother You, left!"

When You Su heard Ji Qingfeng's voice, he immediately locked onto the position on the left.

In the chaotic situation, his hand holding the sniper gun was overly steady, even though his other hand was holding another mecha.

Lin Yao was guarding the entrance to the passage: "Hurry up! Da Feng!"

Zhao Lejie looked up at the previously safe passageway, which was also beginning to fall rocks. "No way! Is it true that the road I dug with my shield is so fragile?"

Through his field of vision, Ying Chenlin saw bursts of fire light up in the increasingly dark environment, and the voice in the communication channel gradually became lower.

The buzzing sound in his ears continued. Ying Chenlin closed his eyes and seemed to hear the rumbling sound of the mecha's cabin vibrating.

It was coming from another mecha that was holding him tightly. The steady and orderly bombardment inexplicably gave people a sense of reliability and stability, reminding Ying Chenlin of the thumping sound of the man's footsteps on the mecha cockpit in the Qiujinji station.

Everyone must live and no one can die.

The mecha in his arms completely lost its mental support. You Su seemed to hear the faint gasping sound in the chaotic channel beside his ear disappear. He frowned tightly, "Ying Chenlin?"

There was no response on the communication channel.

Ji Qingfeng and Colonel Lu rushed into the passage one after another. The collapse of the cave was imminent, and all the mechas pushed their thrusters to the maximum at the same time, flying rapidly forward towards the narrow passage one after another.

The border troops shouted: "Quick!!"

"Everyone, push the thrusters to full capacity and head forward towards the passage." Huo Yan endured the pain in his waist, and his powerful voice penetrated the crackling electric current and reached everyone's ears.

There was the rumbling sound of falling rocks and the urgent calls for artillery fire to clear a path. 15 mechas were making their final escape while collapsing.

More than three hundred meters underground, there is only a long and endless tunnel. The whole world was shaking, and everyone's mind was almost blank. When Colonel Lu turned around, he saw the passage less than 5 meters away from him collapsed. Death had never been so close to him before, but when he looked up, he could see the black mecha held by the white mecha in addition to three or two other mechas.

The black mecha's thrusters were all extinguished, and the light pattern of the entire mecha did not light up. Only the green energy crystal held in the mecha's hand emitted light, as if it was the only light in this dark road.

Everything is different than it was eight years ago.

Above the surface, several border army mechas stopped at the entrance of the dug passage.

In the main control room, the staff who had lost contact with the underground were closely watching that place through the border army mecha communication screen waiting outside.

Qi Sicheng and his teammates also came here. When they lowered their heads, they could see the huge wide opening leading to the underground. At this moment, the light from the searchlight shone through the underground and reached the ground, and the first mecha rushed out from the underground.

“It’s out!”

With the first one, there will be a second one.

Gale Gunner said, "Is this the hole that the deputy captain dug?"

"We dug a good hole." Qi Sicheng looked up at several mechas flying high in the sky.

Many mechas were injured, some were being dragged, some had their thrusters shut down... They seemed to be reborn and flew to a better sky, contrasting with the slightly bright orange sky.

Lieutenant Colonel Lu's voice reappeared in the channel: "Report - All 15 mechas evacuated."
