Chapter 105
Chapter 105
When the mantis was moving, an alarm suddenly sounded in the already busy Koria Administration.
The staff member who was still dealing with the mountain bombing incident was stunned and asked hurriedly: "What's going on!"
Another person exclaimed: "Mecha signals detected in the restricted area!"
The restricted area is an important detection target of the Kolia Administration. Some mecha pilots including KID and Gale did not completely hide the mecha signals. When they appeared in the restricted area system, the staff in the control room of the administration immediately received the signals from inside the restricted area.
The sudden change caused the people in the management bureau to be in a mess. The person in charge asked: "What kind of mecha is this!"
"KID and Hayate!"
"How did they get in?!"
"The signal changed suddenly, I don't know!"
When the alarm sounded in the administration's control room, there was silence in the woods somewhere in the Kolia contaminated area.
After the familiar feeling of dizziness, there was a sudden change in the new scene. Having ridden Ji Qingfeng's female mantis several times, all the mecha masters probably knew what was going on. After Ying Chenlin landed, he first noticed the surrounding environment. The ground was covered with dead branches and rotten leaves. What caught his eye was a dead forest right in front of him. There were a few green leaves hanging on the treetops, and the rest were dry gray leaves.
Zhao Lejie shook off the nausea caused by the displacement, and then looked at Ji Qingfeng: "Keep an eye on your daughter."
"I really pulled it tight." Ji Qingfeng felt wronged. He had controlled the female mantis so many times, how could he not know what the strength was?
"Where is the displacement going this time?"
"Swamp Forest? Something seems a little off."
After the dizziness, the mecha operators noticed the strange scene around them. In stark contrast to the lush swamp forest, the strange environment around them made all the mecha operators alert. Then they noticed the completely unfamiliar terrain on the radar.
Ying Chenlin said: "Restricted area."
Qi Sicheng zoomed out the radar map and imported the topographic map, which revealed their coordinates: "Kolia restricted area."
Several mecha masters around were stunned when they heard this. Before entering the Koria contaminated area, the management bureau held a small meeting and briefly mentioned the Koria restricted area, asking all mecha masters to stay away from this place when performing missions. They actually broke into a place where entry is strictly prohibited!
Ji Qingfeng: "...Daughter, it seems we have sneaked to a very dangerous place."
This is more than an amazing place! This place is a restricted area!
There is a rule in their alliance's mecha division code that states that mecha divisions on missions must strictly abide by the rules of each contaminated zone. Among the thousands of rules in each contaminated zone, the restricted area overrides all other rules. There are not many contaminated areas with restricted areas in the Dawn Galaxy. Normally, to enter the restricted area, you need to go through multiple levels of approval from the Administration to the Alliance, and get a pass before you can enter and exit.
As a result, they accidentally moved directly into the penalty area!
Zhao Lejie looked at the female mantis in silence, "Why don't you let your daughter move again and take all of us out!"
The other mecha masters all knew the seriousness of entering the restricted area. After Zhao Lejie finished speaking, they all approached Ji Qingfeng.
Ji Qingfeng knew that he was in trouble, so he immediately relaxed his control over the female mantis when he saw his teammates approaching. However, once the restraining sickle was loosened, the familiar red circle did not light up, and the female mantis lay listlessly on the ground, with no intention of continuing the teleportation.
Everyone: “?”
Ji Qingfeng: "The child may be a little rebellious."
He tried it several times, but the female mantis didn't move, and didn't even look up at him.
Zhao Lejie looked at her nervously: "Your daughter doesn't look right!"
"It doesn't make sense to stop after just one stroll after eating and drinking!" Ji Qingfeng tried several times unwillingly, but the Mantis brand displacement car, which always worked, completely broke down at this time. He had no choice but to give up: "It's the late stage of rebellion, how about we think of other ways?"
Other mecha masters: “!”┇
Ying Chenlin walked to the female mantis, raised its head slightly, and saw the king insect curled up in the mantis's shell.
The black king insect was now curled up, and there was no extra reaction even when Ji Qingfeng pulled it. Even the other wireworms in the mantis's body were in a semi-motionless state, as if they were affected by something. He judged: "The status is a bit strange, it should be impossible to teleport."
The Mantis' displacement failed, and their plan to quickly leave the restricted area failed.
Before they could figure out how to respond next, the Koria Administration contacted them.
Qi Sicheng carried a signal booster with him. His signal was the best among everyone, but he could only barely communicate with the staff of the administration. The communication signal in the restricted area of Kolya was very weak. After listening to the voice of the staff, he said: "The voice is a bit fuzzy, but they want us to leave the restricted area immediately, saying that it is very dangerous in here."
After listening to this, Lin Yao asked cautiously: "Does it say how we will be punished? Do we have to pay a fine?"
"I can't hear the sound behind me clearly." Qi Sicheng turned off the communication signal. When he turned on the radar, he noticed that the radar in the mecha seemed to be affected by the magnetic field in the restricted area, and the speed of position update became extremely slow. "Anyway, it hasn't caused any big problems yet. Let's leave this place first."
Judging from the original map position, their current location should be the intersection of the mountains and the edge of the swamp forest, which should be the scorched forest outside the restricted area. In the communication channel, Huo Yan and Qi Sicheng were using the map to guess the appropriate location to advance. Ying Chenlin did not listen to them, but focused his attention on the mecha key floating in his palm.
The closer to the restricted area, the more obvious the reaction of the Yuan Mecha.
Ying Chenlin tried to infuse his mental power several times, but he never got a response from Yuan. On the contrary, with the infusion of mental power, Yuan's reaction to the restricted area was slightly alleviated, and the heat on the mecha was significantly reduced. This abnormal reaction made Ying Chenlin a little puzzled, so he had to maintain a steady output of mental power and try his best to stabilize the unknown heat caused by the mecha inside the key.
While he was in doubt, the others had already discussed the route forward.
Huo Yan paid attention to the surrounding environment. "The maximum distance a female mantis can move at one time should be about 30 kilometers. Judging from our original position, we are currently only at the edge of the restricted area. If we find the right direction, we should be able to walk out along the edge."
Qi Sicheng: "The distance should not exceed 10 kilometers, let's try to walk out first."
There is a mecha pilot with a good sense of direction in Gale. He estimated the range based on the existing information and finally led the way.
The environment in the restricted area is special, so for safety reasons, no one used the mecha's thrusters to move forward. Ji Qingfeng originally thought that he had to give up on the female mantis, but when he pulled the mantis, it actually followed his instructions and moved forward. This reaction really surprised him: "No way, girl, I told you to teleport but you didn't, and now you're pulling me away?"
Qi Sicheng probably also knew the situation of this mantis. "It's not that it doesn't want to teleport, but the Overlord inside it can no longer control its displacement."
The female mantis is actually dead, and the ability to move is just the control of the queen after it hollowed out its body. This kind of control and domination comes from the supernatural power of the king insect. According to the original situation, the king insect can completely control the mother mantis, but now the king insect can still control some of the movement functions of the mother mantis's body, but it is difficult to control the displacement ability of the mother mantis.
"Its state seems to be suppressed." Qi Sicheng said: "Although I don't know the reason, it may be related to the environment of the restricted area."
The entire restricted area gave them the feeling that there was no life at all. The trees were all dry and there was little water. For the Queen Worm that has been moving towards the water source, this displacement is very strange. Rather than being an active displacement of the Queen Worm, it is more likely that the Queen Worm's failure to control its displacement ability has led to uncontrolled displacement.
Lin Yao was very curious and asked: "What exactly is the restricted area? Why is it closed?"
Huo Yan said: "Now that I think about it, I heard about the Coria restricted area when I was in service."
Qi Sicheng looked at Huo Yan after hearing this. He had heard that KID's tank mecha was a retired mecha division of the Border Army before joining the Mecha Alliance. However, the Mecha Alliance and the Border Army are two different systems, and the two sides rarely have contact unless there is a major incident. He confirmed, "Is it related to the Border Army?"
When the restricted area was mentioned, Ying Chenlin looked at Huo Yan with some curiosity. He seldom heard Huo Yan mention his past service.
The Koria contaminated area is relatively close to the border contaminated area, and there is also a border army garrison planet nearby.
Qi Sicheng had heard that Koria was rarely open to the Mecha Alliance's Mecha Divisions to carry out missions. On the one hand, it was due to the special nature of the contaminated area, and on the other hand, there were border troops to assist in supervision.
Border troops often chase pollutants that escape from the border to Kolya.
, pollutants at the border are the responsibility of the border army.
"It is related. Koria is a polluted area near the border. I have been to the Koria polluted area once when I was on duty." Huo Yan recalled: "But we were only chasing the pollutants at the border. You also know that this place is close to the border, and there are often escaped pollutants running here. The pollutants coming from the border are handled by the border army. When we came here, we were led by a senior mecha division."
"It seems that there was an attack by border pollutants 20 years ago. The accident caused many casualties among the border troops. After the accident, this place was completely closed." Huo Yan recalled: "At that time, the special forces of the border troops were dispatched to deal with the pollutant."
When he heard about the special forces of the border army, Ying Chenlin was a little surprised.
He had heard of the Border Army's special forces. In the Dawn Galaxy's military system, the Border Army was at the head, and there were various types of military branches within the Border Army. Among them, the special forces are the strongest force in the border army. It is said that the mecha divisions selected for the special forces are basically the best people in the border army.
Dawn's Mecha Alliance did perform poorly in the Star Alliance Games, but Dawn's Border Force was among the top-tier in terms of strength among the border forces in the major star regions of the Star Alliance, and it was said that it had achieved very good results in joint military exercises.
A pollutant that even the border army special forces find difficult to handle...?
Lin Yao was surprised and asked, "So many border troops were mobilized! Is the pollutant very strong?"
"I don't know about that. I heard it was just an S-class mutated pollutant." Huo Yan got all the information from his former colleagues in the border army. He had no specific idea of the strength of the S-class mutated pollutant 20 years ago. "After that, the border army spent a huge amount of money to cooperate with the Koria contaminated area to seal off this area."
These things were not secrets in the border troops. After all, border troops often came to Kolia to carry out missions. Huo Yan also heard about it from the old senior at that time. "I don't remember the other things very clearly. Those were all five or six years ago."
Upon hearing this, Ying Chenlin looked towards Huo Yan's position. Huo Yan was not very old, so why did he want to retire from the border army and come to KID?
He was a little confused, as it seemed that he rarely heard Huo Yan mention the previous border army.
In the Koria penalty area, Ji Feng and KID's men have reached the edge.
But when they walked to the edge, what they saw was an invisible barrier!
At the edge of the restricted area and the swamp forest stands an invisible barrier, extending to the end of the edge with no exit at all.
Everyone fell silent when seeing this situation. They had reached the border of the restricted area, but were blocked by a shielding system.
"I suddenly remembered..." Huo Yan looked at the barrier, "I seem to have heard my predecessor say that in order to prevent others from entering the restricted area, there is a shielding system between the restricted area and the contaminated area. And this system is specially manufactured, and ordinary pollutants and mecha masters cannot enter."
Everyone: “……?”
Then how do they get out?
Zhao Lejie looked at Ji Qingfeng: "Your daughter is amazing."
Ji Qingfeng was not proud at all after receiving this compliment. He looked down at the King Bug. The restraints were loosened but the King Bug did not show any other reaction. "How about waiting until my daughter's rebellious period is over?"
Zhao Lejie: “…”
The mecha masters fell silent. How long will it take to do this?
"You should be able to get out. This kind of system usually has an entrance set up."
As if noticing the silence of the others, Huo Yan added: "But I have never been to the restricted area, so I don't know where the entrance is."
Qi Sicheng pinched his brows and said, "I will try to contact the Administration and ask them to give me the coordinates of the entrance."
Zhao Lejie looked at the radar still standing a few hundred meters behind him and said, "Even with the entrance coordinates, it won't work. The radar response in this place is so low."
Everyone stared at the invisible shielding system in a daze, as if they were thinking about how to get out of here.
At this time, You Su, who had been silent, said, "The entrance is on the east side of the restricted area."
-
While KID and Gale's mecha warriors were walking towards the edge of the restricted area, the Koria Administration was busy with various trivial matters.
"We barely managed to contact Qi Sicheng of Jifeng, but the follow-up signal was cut off again. They should be heading towards the edge now." The staff responsible for monitoring the restricted area did not expect this to happen. Fortunately, there have been no strange fluctuations in the restricted area recently, and the mecha master is at the edge. "It should be fine. Just wait for the people to come out."
"How do we get out?" another staff member said, "The restricted area has a barrier and the entrance is hidden. Except for our director and the border troops, no one else knows how to get out."
"The communication is intermittent. They should be moving."
The Koria restricted area is a special place with its own barrier system. Under normal circumstances, except for special pollutants, other mechas cannot enter.
Their staff only have ordinary permissions. It is said that in order to open the system of the entire restricted area, the authority of both the director and the leader of the border army is required.
The incident happened suddenly, so they could only send someone to find the director of the administration and send someone to contact people in the Dawn Galaxy.
In the Dawn Galaxy lounge, several people were looking at the mecha signals and the restricted area locations, and they were all overwhelmed. What is going on? The mountain bombing issue hasn’t been resolved yet, and now these two teams are joining hands to go into the restricted area to play, right?
Staff: "Captain Qi just sent a message reluctantly. They said they will be out as soon as possible. If there is anything else, let us deal with it first."
"...It's not up to us to deal with it." The leader of Black Crow looked at the leader of YDS. Not long ago, Shen Xingtang and Brother Zhang from Jifeng had gone to the conference room for a meeting. Now, they have to take the responsibility of breaking into the restricted area.
When Bai Xuyan came out from under the mountain where he was buried, he received a message from the person in charge of the Second Star Region. The news that none of the resources from the main planet had been obtained had been transmitted back to the Second Star Region, causing displeasure among several leaders. They even had to explain to the Koria Administration because of the excessive amount of condensing agent on site.
That's all that happened. The battle on the secondary planet was not going very smoothly. In the absence of external assistance, Black Crow decisively changed its position to assist YDS after grabbing a resource. The battle on the secondary planet has been in a complete stalemate so far. Moreover, due to frequent problems on the main planet, the Administration has strengthened its inspections on the secondary planet, making it impossible for them to take direct action against the mecha divisions of the Dawn Galaxy.
GBK's communication channel was completely silent, with only Bai Xuyan talking to the staff. "So what's going on now?"
"We can only take two resources from this planet at most. The remaining resource point is being guarded by YDS and Black Crow. We may not be able to interfere." The staff member said: "The team leader has gone to the meeting... The Alliance is a little angry, and the base owner has also sent a message to question him."
There were two resource points, and they didn’t get any resources from the main planet, which means that in the end they could only get 2 S-level resources at most.
The S-level resources on the secondary planet do not contain any special energy crystals, and the most valuable space displacement resource this time fell into the hands of the Dawn Galaxy. How could the boss of GBK not be angry about this result?
What's more, the joint clearing mission between the Second Star Domain and Dawn was also to question the ability of the Dawn Galaxy based on the final clearing results. But now, not only did the Dawn Galaxy not let down, it also successfully obtained so many resources.
Bai Xuyan remained silent, and the staff also became nervous.
"I understand." Bai Xuyan said, "Just tell the boss what you said exactly."
The staff had to exit the communication channel.
GBK's mecha masters looked at each other, "Team White, this matter - actually it's not our fault, it's all because of KID who messed with that female mantis."
"Do you still care about being inferior to others after losing?" Bai Xuyan looked very bad. The feedback of the failure this time was all on him. The command of the mission was in his hands. If he didn't get the expected result, then he would be the only one responsible.
Bai Xuyan has played in many leagues as a commander. Although the competition and the contaminated zone mission are completely different things, what he can't understand is that he has been defeated so many times by KID. He has studied KID's combat videos. KID's team is not strong in teamwork and relies entirely on individual strength. Such a team can easily be defeated by a team that is good at operations.
The tactic of dividing the battlefield is completely unworkable in the Star Alliance Tournament. Only a small galaxy like Dawn would use this tactic internally. If victory can be achieved by dividing the battlefield, then people like KID are more suitable for fighting alone rather than in group battles.
However, it was these few mecha divisions with such disorganized coordination that messed up their plans for the second star domain.
The female mantis was one reason, but Bai Xuyan felt that there were more reasons than that. ^
Bai Xuyan was recalling the last battle, when he was in an advantageous situation, KID Gunner Mecha Master Trace and Qi Sicheng broke the deadlock, and there was also the individual mecha that disappeared in the entire battle. The Wind Squad knew that they should bring medical mechas during missions to conduct system training, but KID brought a single-soldier mecha.
KID's performance this time was very strange. He was much more flexible than when playing in the league.
Apart from the increase in KID's own strength, the only things left are the variables within KID.
The mecha controller who was on good terms with Bai Xuyan said, "The one driving that mecha is KID's maintenance technician Ying Chenlin."
"I have observed that there were two battles where we mainly fought against KID. I have been paying attention to the movements of that mecha and found that his position was always in a favorable position in the middle and back. This position is more like a command position."
There are too many people in KID that interest him. Before it was the mysterious designer Yuan, and now it is the maintenance engineer Ying Chenlin.
Bai Xuyan thought of the footage of the Qiujin incident that he had watched before. There was a live broadcast of that accident on the Star Network. Although part of it was later cleared by the Dawn Mecha Alliance, a small part of the footage was still leaked. "Ying Chenlin's operation is not bad, but I didn't see him operate much in this encounter. He may indeed be KID's temporary commander."
The controller of the mecha said, "But isn't this too abnormal? He is not only KID's maintenance technician, but also a mecha master...if he is also a commander. There are many mecha masters with abnormal talents in other star fields, but I have never heard of such an all-round talent - and he looks very young."
He hesitated and said, "Didn't you ask me to check Ying Chenlin before entering the contaminated area? I found that there is very little information about him on the Dawn Star Network."
Anyone with real talent will attract some attention on Starnet.
Ying Chenlin has always appeared in front of everyone as KID's maintenance engineer. KID has rarely released any information about him as a maintenance engineer. Even though he performed brilliantly in Qiujin at that time, the popularity was short-lived. After that, discussions about him seemed to be intentionally suppressed.
A completely blank person, appearing out of nowhere.
Bai Xuyan said: "I don't believe such a talented and young person would remain unknown for several years."
"The only people who could suppress his news like this, apart from KID doing it on purpose, could only be someone from the Dawn Galaxy Mecha Alliance."
"Dawn Mech Alliance?" The controller of the mech said in surprise: "There are many Dawn leaders at the Qiujin site, right? You mean Li Jingyan?"
Bai Xuyan's eyes darkened slightly, "I was just thinking that if Shen Xingtang and Li Jingyan wanted to hide him, his identity must be extraordinary."
The author has something to say:
Transition chapter orz, there will be an additional update in the evening, but I’m a bit stuck in writing, so I’m not sure about the time.
