Chapter 27
Chapter 27
The blue mecha followed the command and landed on the ruins closest to the Centennial Orchid. The open protective shield maintained 60% of the output and stood motionless in the same place. The protective shield that was supposed to protect teammates was on, but there was no one standing inside Zhao Lejie's shield, making him look particularly stupid.
Then what! ? He just stood there and got beaten! ?
Zhao Lejie was puzzled. As the starting tank of the Gale Base, he had always been the front row for everyone, taking on the responsibility of protecting friendly mechas.
The responsibility is to protect teammates, not to stand in the sand and act as a sandbag.
The most difficult environment for dealing with the Welwitschia is the quicksand around it and the potential wind currents.
The Welwitschia grows in the sand, with only a few ruins around it, and these ruins are only enough for a single mecha to stand. Then the difficulty of operation is given to the mecha master. If the mecha master wants to deal with the Welwitschia, he can only rely on flying and hovering, and operate in the air. In this way, the probability of being blown away by the wind or the leaves of the Welwitschia will be greatly increased.
When Zhao Lejie stood on the ruins, he had already analyzed the current situation in his mind.
As Jifeng's deputy captain, he also assisted Qi Sicheng in commanding the team on the field. In the current situation, if he continued to take the beating, he could indeed last until 20 minutes in the end, but KID's lineup could not bring him reasonable benefits.
"You guys can't fight like this." Zhao Lejie didn't know why he was standing here with a protective shield on his head and getting beaten. He stood on the sandy ruins and got beaten alone, adhering to the good quality of trusting his teammates. "It's hard to get close to the mechas. There's no foothold. The defense of the Centennial Orchid is extremely high. The output of the long-range gun mechas is not enough—"
Before he could finish his words, several mechas of KID that were originally moving around took off.
Zhao Lejie was stunned for a moment, and then saw KID's two melee mechas pass him and directly reach the position behind Baisuilan.
Ying Chenlin quickly adjusted his position and used the magnetic cannon to cover KID's two melee mechas approaching. "Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao, stay in that position, stick to the edge of the protective shield, and don't output more than 40% of your energy."
Zhao Lejie was shocked and said, "Wait? My energy is already at 60%? You guys save money, but do you save energy as well?"
What are these guys doing! He might not even last more than 20 minutes, why are these people still saving their energy! ?
Lin Yao stopped the momentum of the mecha without hesitation, turned around and slashed at Baisuilan with his long sword. He was ready to block the counterattack, but Baisuilan did not attack him. Instead, it intensified its offensive against Zhao Lejie who was right in front of it.
You Su was at the very end of all the mechas, clearly observing all the situations in the field. Seeing this operation, he looked towards the guard mecha next to him with interest. This time, Ying Chenlin did not follow KID and the others into the close-range attack range of the Centennial Orchid. Instead, he stayed at the medium-to-long-range position like him. Although his position was further back, he was always within the attack range of the Guard Mecha's magnetic cannon.
In just a moment, Zhao Lejie felt something subtly wrong. The attack method of this Centenary Orchid was wrong!
The next second, Ji Qingfeng, who was hiding behind Lin Yao, asked Zhao Lejie's question: "Why doesn't this Centennial Orchid attack Yao Bao?!"
S-level pollutants have a certain ability to think and it is impossible for them to remain indifferent to the prey in front of them.
Zhao Lejie didn't understand. Lin Yao was obviously closer to the S-level pollutant, but the attack didn't fall on him. Instead, it stimulated the Centipede to attack Zhao Lejie even more fiercely.
Ying Chenlin fired another thunder and magnetic cannon. The paralysis effect of the A-class mecha is much better than that of the B-class, and it is also effective against S-class pollutants. He said, "Because of the protective shield."
Protective shield! ? Mechas don't have a taunting function like in games. Only an S-level pollutant would be stupid enough to hit a meat stick in place.
Ying Chenlin fired the thunder and magnetic cannon right in front of the Centennial Orchid. "The Centennial Orchid will capture our location and attack us."
Zhao Lejie naturally discovered this: "The sensitivity of S-level pollutants is very high, so it's not surprising that they would lock on to us."
Ying Chenlin asked bluntly: "Then how is it locked?"
"Of course I saw it... No, I didn't see it." Zhao Lejie suddenly stopped here. In addition to the sand, there were also some obstacles of ruins near the Baisuilan. The speed of the mecha was fast. If the Baisuilan saw it and then attacked, it would not be possible to predict their attack trends... Rather than saying that it saw it, it is better to say that the Baisuilan could predict their movements and attacked them before they attacked.
This is the only way to hit their location accurately.
Lin Yao didn't understand this. "If it can't see, then is it blind?"
Ji Qingfeng glanced at Lin Yao and said, "How could it be blind? Can a blind person still control the Liusha people? Maybe the eyes of the Centipede are not located in..."
Having said this, several people in the communication channel reacted instantly.
Not necessarily seeing them, but there must be a way to predict them.
"The information says that the root system of the Welwitschia plant is particularly developed, extending over a distance of no less than 5 kilometers."
Ying Chenlin was originally unsure of the basic characteristics of the Welwitschia until he noticed the features written in the information. If quicksand is really the supernatural power of the Welwitschia, then the only way it can control the quicksand is through its roots. It hunts through the roots, and the roots are its eyes.
The reason why it can react before they attack is because it relies on energy recognition.
The mecha may not have obvious movements when attacking, but there will definitely be energy fluctuations.
Once the Welwitschia notices an energy reaction at a certain location, it will attack the opponent immediately.
The communication channel was filled with the crackling sound of electricity affecting the signal, but Ying Chenlin's voice was still clearly heard by the other mecha pilots present.
Zhao Lejie spoke cautiously: "Then why is it a protective shield?"
Ying Chenlin: "The energy of the shield is evenly distributed, and its target is large enough."
Zhao Lejie immediately understood why Baisui Lan attacked him instead of Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao.
It is obvious from the fact that Welwitschia controls the quicksand that its way of capturing prey is to sense the energy and mental power emitted by the mecha through its roots. Once the tank mecha opens the energy shield to output 60% of its energy at close range, it becomes the core target.
In order to protect teammates, the protective shield has an evenly spread out protective area. In this case, the energy in the range covered by the shield is almost evenly distributed. Because Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao control the energy output and are within the edge range of Zhao Lejie's energy shield, Baisuilan will define the range of the shield as a target.
How come this person is so familiar with the energy performance of tank mechas! ?
Ying Chenlin said: "As long as the output frequency of the two mechas in close combat is lower than yours, you will generally not be locked."
Lin Yao asked: "What do you mean? I don't understand."
Ji Qingfeng: "Are you stupid? Have you ever played a game? It's all about using your ultimate to attract aggro. When he uses his ultimate, we hide at the edge of his ultimate and attack. He attracts aggro and gets hit, and we just need to output steadily."
Zhao Lejie said: "...So you knew this from the beginning? You asked me to block this place?"
We are all working together to fight pollution, so why does he end up like a tool?
"I wasn't sure at first." Ying Chenlin explained, "So I had to try it directly, but now I'm sure."
Zhao Lejie: “…”
This guy is just trying it directly, just giving it a try, right?
Ying Chenlin praised earnestly, "You are strong enough to do this."
Just as Zhao Lejie was about to speak, another sniper shell flew over his head and hit Baisuilan directly.
The Welwitschia went crazy and whipped Zhao Lejie even harder with its leaves.
Zhao Lejie: "I can understand that melee mechas cannot distinguish correctly due to the influence of energy, but why did both of you have outputs over 60%! And it still hit me!?"
Ying Chenlin looked at him in confusion, as if he didn't understand why he didn't understand this, so he had to explain: "This is because of the direction. The two of us are standing behind you. Its leaves can't stretch and regenerate like other plant-based pollutants. You are standing in the way of its attack. If it wants to attack us, it has to get rid of you first."
Ji Qingfeng was unhurt and painless. He attacked Lin Yao from behind and said, "You are a tank mecha. Isn't it normal for you to take the damage?"
Zhao Lejie: "...You have the ability to leave from the edge of my protective shield!"
Ji Qingfeng rubbed the edge of the protective shield again, "I'm stupid to leave."
KID's four mechas were located at both ends. Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao were directly behind Baisui Lan, and the other two A-class mechas were directly behind Zhao Lejie.
The formation of two or three teams dispersed the direction of the Centennial Orchid's attack. The protective shield indirectly concealed the ability fluctuations of Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao. The two A-class mechas at the back released energy everywhere, trying their best to attract hatred to him.
But this only temporarily concentrated the Welwitschia's attack and eliminated the threat of the Welwitschia leaves.
But the quicksand and wind around him are unavoidable. In this environment where there is no foothold, the operation of the mecha pilot is extremely harsh. Zhao Lejie originally thought that KID would lose their composure due to environmental factors, but the KID quartet did not collapse.
Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao were both flying in the air behind Baisuilan, and the two mechas directly behind his mecha were avoiding damage steadily with the help of their positioning. Every shot was accurate and hit Baisuilan, with the operating level of a professional mecha master.
Zhao Lejie looked at the several mechas around him with a complicated expression. He knew that Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao were professionals, but the two mechas KID behind them were only A-level, but they could also accurately use the mecha's performance and the narrow foothold to remain calm in this harsh environment.
Perfect charge, perfect hit.
The thunder and magnetic cannon will cause paralysis when it hits, and the sniper cannon will lock onto the core position and bombard it.
Although they were clearly guard mechas and gunner mechas, this hit rate gave Zhao Lejie a sense of trance, as if there were two gunner mechas behind him that were delivering damage.
Zhao Lejie stared at them intently. The accuracy of these two mechas was... so accurate that it was a little scary.
Although he was not a gunner or a guard mecha master, he knew that the most important thing for "cannon" weapons was the hit rate. Sniper cannons required a stable environment to hit accurately, and the thunder cannon was a melee weapon. The closer the hit rate, the higher the hit rate, and the farther the hit rate, the harder it was to maintain accuracy.
His captain Qi Sicheng once said that KID's front line is not bad, but the bad
It’s about cooperation and support.
But now, the gunnery mecha division behind him was boldly carrying sniper guns and energy cannons, and the guard mecha used thunder and magnetic cannons remotely. Without any life-saving control measures, they were able to achieve precise hits in this environment... The skills of these two mecha divisions were so stable that it was a bit scary.
KID has two mechas, one is a gun mecha that can accurately hit in dangerous flying environments, and the other is a guard mecha that can use melee weapons as flexibly as long-range weapons.
If there were such a mecha division, certain bases in the alliance would have been scrambling for it.
An unknown gunnery mecha master, a guard mecha with first-class thinking, excellent operation and a great overall view... Where on earth did KID find such a mecha master? This must not be a mecha master in service in the alliance!
At this time, the S-level pollutant Welwitschia, which was attacked from all sides and had no power to resist, became more manic. The calm sand around it gradually became strange. The calm quicksand even formed a vortex shape, rising little by little, forming a sand tornado.
Seeing this, Zhao Lejie hesitated for a step and was pushed back a few steps by the oncoming Welwitschia leaves.
Ji Qingfeng was frightened and hurriedly moved closer to him: "Can you do it? Why did you get beaten back?"
Zhao Lejie felt very aggrieved: "If you can do it, come on!"
In the end, everyone was showing off and he was the only one getting beaten.
You Su noticed the change in the sniper scope, fired a sniper shot smoothly, and said in a cold voice: "Back off!"
Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao retreated without saying a word, only to see continuous sand tornadoes appearing around the Welwitschia, making it impossible for them to get any closer. Zhao Lejie cursed angrily and was hit head-on by the sandblast. If he hadn't been pinned to the ground, he would have been almost blown away.
"No way!" Zhao Lejie said, "There's a tornado, we can't get close."
You Su said, "I can get close."
Upon hearing this, Ying Chenlin looked towards You Su's position, only to see that the energy storage of the gun mecha had increased to a threshold. The flying mecha fired a blast, directly breaking up the formed salon roll.
Lin Yao: “Oh my god! That’s awesome!”
Zhao Lejie was stunned. This gun mecha actually directly broke up the sand rolls condensed by pollutants.
The sniper cannon of the Gun Mecha was inherently extremely lethal, and there were often precedents in the arena where the Gun Mecha used a full-strength attack to blast apart the protective shield of a tank mecha. And now this concentrated-energy sniper cannon directly hit the sand scroll, and with one shot it opened up the field of vision that was blocked by the sand scroll, broadening the field of vision for Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao.
Ji Qingfeng saw the sniper cannon flying over his head and broke out in a cold sweat, "Brother, your sniper cannon just rubbed my head."
You Su said calmly, "Really? Then stand firm."
Ji Qingfeng began to feel uneasy, as if he had already anticipated the outcome of being blown away by gunfire due to his unstable position.
Ying Chenlin's eyes moved around, and the new attack route gradually became clear in his mind. "Can you maintain the accuracy?"
You Suo recharged his energy: "You can continue."
"Modify the shield by 70%, and adjust the light blade energy to 50%." Ying Chenlin quickly continued, "Guns and artillery will cover us."
Zhao Lejie immediately raised the energy threshold and asked, "Raised it!"
But what can he do if the energy threshold is raised? His mecha's energy cannot withstand such consumption. The sniper cannon of the gun mecha, which was originally their main output, can only disperse the salon for them and open up their vision, resulting in a decrease in their main output.
Zhao Lejie was thinking halfway when he suddenly saw something -
You Su's eyes deepened slightly, and the sniper cannon fired out. At this moment, a figure flashed in the sniper scope used for aiming. The high-speed flying mecha found a gap in the headwind environment and almost stuck to the sniper cannon.
At the same time as the sniper gun hit the sand roll, the guard mecha used the impact force and condensed the energy circle on the lightsaber to cut the sand roll horizontally. The view in front of him suddenly became clear, and the guard mecha that was originally providing cover joined the battle.
Ying Chenlin was stuck in the gap between the tank mecha and the salon roll, and the light knife neatly picked up the leaves of the Welwitschia orchid, "Go on, don't worry about me."
In the cockpit, the mecha Theo, who was also calculating, stopped when he saw this scene. In less than a second, he passed through the track of the sniper cannon flying at the speed of light.
You Su quickly switched the energy source of the sniper cannon and said briefly: "He calculated the time for me to charge the energy."
Knowing his charging time, he calculated that at that time, the sniper cannon would not hit him even if the trajectory overlapped.
Theo said, "But what if you miscalculated and the cannon you fired just now hit him."
You Su didn't say anything, but used the short displacement time to enter a new sniper point.
The only way to defeat the Centennial Orchid is before Zhao Lejie’s protective shield runs out of energy.
In the instantaneous changes, all the mecha pilots were fully focused.
You Su stood at the farthest edge of the energy shield, just stuck on the edge of Zhao Lejie's mecha. The pre-calculated sniper cannon passed through the gaps in the sand rolls and could directly blast away the sand rolls on the attack route.
Ying Chenlin quickly scanned the coordinate map and re-determined You Su's position. When the other party adjusted his position, he also switched positions.
Naturally, he did not give up this excellent opportunity to get closer. The harsh environment was even more severe for the mecha pilot. He switched the weapons in his left and right hands, moving the original thunder and magnetic cannon to his right hand. At this time, the lightsaber fell into his left hand.
The performance of the A-class mecha is not as good as that of the competition-class mecha. If he wants to shorten the time, he can only increase the frequency of attacks.
Ying Chenlin exhaled a breath of foul air, mobilized his mental power and concentrated it on his left hand. The drying up of his mental power caused his left hand to feel tingling and painful.
It was only a moment, and soon the pain disappeared.
Instead, he wore a black and red necklace hidden in his collar. The faint light echoed with something invisible, and a crack appeared on the surface of the memory device that stored the S-level energy crystal.
Ji Qingfeng turned his head suddenly and saw the actions of Ying Chenlin's mecha. He was about to speak up to stop his adventure.
The Guardian Mecha is very fast and can be very agile when getting close. If we say that at the beginning Ying Chenlin was just standing in the back to assist and support, then this kind of operation like walking on the tip of a knife is not something an ordinary maintenance technician can do.
The movement of the lightsaber stabbing was very smooth, and it was perfectly connected with the thunder and magnetic cannon in his right hand. Ying Chenlin cut into an extreme output position alone, facing the threat of gunfire from the gun mecha. The smooth movement overlapped with a certain shadow in Ji Qingfeng's memory.
"Damn!" The familiar feeling in Ji Qingfeng's mind immediately found its home.
This strangely familiar feeling! This light sword, this thunder cannon! How come the rhythm of this operation is exactly the same as that of the B-class mecha master in the Banut contaminated area!
Lin Yao: "What do you rely on?"
Ji Qingfeng was shocked and said: "This world is too small!"
Zhao Lejie said angrily: "You still have time to talk??? Can you fight seriously! If you go off the track again, you'll fall into the sand!"
Ji Qingfeng had no choice but to turn his attention back to the Centennial Orchid, but during the action his eyes always inadvertently glanced in the direction of Ying Chenlin. The more he paid attention, the more details of the operation he could remember.
“???” Are today’s maintenance engineers so arrogant? How can you drive a mecha better than a professional?
The situation on the field had changed. Zhao Lejie was still steadily enduring the attack of the Centennial Orchid, while Lin Yao and Ji Qingfeng were stuck in front of him diagonally to the left, and the other two A-class mechas were also stuck on the edge of the protective shield, one in front and one behind.
The gunner mecha was responsible for breaking up the sand scrolls, while the other three melee mechas were breaking the powerful leaves of the Welwitschia.
The previous ten minutes of attack had already caused the Welwitschia to suffer a lot of damage. In order to mobilize the sand roll, all its strength seemed to be spread out in the sand, so that its defenses were reduced.
One piece, two pieces...
Under the high-intensity attack of the three guard mechas, the leaves of the Welwitschia are falling.
Without the ability to regenerate, it could not withstand such a high-intensity attack. Without the protection of the leaves, its strength was gradually lost in the process of mobilizing the quicksand and tornadoes... In the end, its tornado could no longer withstand the bombardment of the energy cannon, and was hit directly on its body by the energy cannon.
Bang--
When the sand rain fell, it hit the mecha and made a crackling sound.
The quicksand around disappeared, leaving only the whistling wind.
"Is he dead?" Ji Qingfeng asked.
Lin Yao took a look and said, "It seems to be transparent."
Several people looked at the place where the Welwitschia died and saw that its leaves were in a state of decay and the surrounding pollution level was gradually decreasing. ．
The Welwitschia orchid that had taken root in the polluted area of Tianyu Star for a long time had lost its vitality. Ying Chenlin floated on the sand, used a knife to push aside the leaves of the Welwitschia orchid, and saw a light yellow supernatural crystal.
An S-grade supernatural crystal, the supernatural power it carries is most likely the [Quicksand] of the Centennial Orchid.
You Su's gaze lingered on the energy crystal for a moment, and Theo kept muttering in his mind: "Wow! S-level energy crystal! We haven't seen this in a long time!"
This is true. S-level supernatural crystals are too rare, and the probability of encountering S-level pollutants is even lower.
But this is the polluted area of Tianyu Star, so it is not surprising that such pollutants would appear here.
“It may not be useful.” You Su adjusted the energy reserve in the mecha. No matter how smooth the A-level mecha is to operate, it is still very different from the competition-level mecha. “The ability of the Centennial Orchid is quicksand, and the ability crystals probably have the same effect. This kind of functional ability crystal is useless to us.”
Theo damaged an offensive weapon, so the most adaptable one would be an offensive energy crystal.
According to their characteristics, supernatural crystals can be divided into four types: attack, defense, function and auxiliary. The quicksand of the Welwitschia is very passive, tends to be soft control, and has weak attack capabilities. If it is used to equip mecha weapons, it will only drag down Theo's attack performance.
In the announcement channel, everyone was overjoyed at the appearance of the S-level supernatural crystal.
"Is this really an S-level supernatural crystal?" Lin Yao flew to Ying Chenlin's side and stared at the supernatural crystal. "It looks very ordinary."
Ji Qingfeng: "With such a high pollution value, the Nine Dragon Vine made a misjudgment once, we won't make a misjudgment a second time!"
"We can only know the specific situation after sending it out for testing, but judging from the current situation, it is highly likely that it has survived." Zhao Lejie finally closed the shiny protective shield. He looked around and saw that the quicksand on the ground had disappeared, turning into ordinary sand. It was totally fine to step on it. "The quicksand is gone. Now we can finally go to base station C."
Lin Yao said in the internal channel: "Chen Lin, your operation just now was so cool!"
In the chaos, everyone had to protect themselves. Lin Yao originally wanted to protect Ying Chenlin, but in the end, Ying Chenlin not only did not need their protection, but was also able to adapt to this rhythm.
Ji Qingfeng: “…”
How can it not be cool! This operating mode is exactly the same as that of the original mecha master!
Ying Chenlin had been providing cover at the rear at the beginning, so they didn't observe him very carefully. But when they think about it carefully, the speed of the thunder magnetic cannon's response was so timely, as if he was a professional mecha master who was familiar with the operation.
Ji Qingfeng thought back to the last cross-cutting operation. Even though he was driving a highly flexible stealth mecha, he might not have dared to take such a risk. However, Ying Chenlin not only did it, but also did it quite beautifully. Thinking of this, the voice of the brother who had cooperated with him at the beginning seemed to become clearer, and it was almost exactly the same as Ying Chenlin's voice.
He switched to the internal channel and asked cryptically: "Ahem, Shen Lin, do you still have a B-class mecha?"
Ying Chenlin still stayed where he was. He did not continue to hide it and responded briefly: "Yeah."
Ji Qingfeng thought to himself: "I said yes! I will never make a mistake in that kind of operation!"
Lin Yao: “Ah?”
Ji Qingfeng said again: "You are stupid! It's the one in the Banut pollution area last time! B-level brother!"
Lin Yao reacted with an "oh" and added, "Ah? Is Shen Lin the mecha master?"
Ying Chenlin didn't reply. His attention was focused on his surroundings. As time went on, his brows furrowed tightly.
Lin Yao and Ji Qingfeng were still having a heated discussion internally when the announcement channel suddenly fell silent.
Zhao Lejie noticed that the surrounding communication frequency
The quietness of the way, "Why don't you talk?"
You Su had just dealt with Theo's noisy voice in his head. He turned his head and saw Ying Chenlin still standing there. He frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong." Ying Chenlin looked at the communication signal and pollution value that had not moved in his field of vision. "It stands to reason that after the pollution source is resolved, some mecha programs should be able to restore some functions or alleviate some of the problems... but so far no program has returned to normal."
After these words came out, several people immediately looked at the mecha system.
If the cause of the magnetic field abnormality nearby is the Welwitschia, then even if they cannot get in touch with the outside world after dealing with the Welwitschia, the system in the area should be relieved.
The surrounding environment became more and more weird. After the quicksand completely disappeared, the entire sand ruins fell into a weird atmosphere.
Gradually, they heard the howling of the wind.
Ji Qingfeng: "I'll go!!! In front!"
The sky was full of yellow sand, and the whistling wind wrapped in the sand was rushing towards them like a sand tsunami.
Zhao Lejie rushed to the front without saying a word. The protective shield that suddenly unfolded blocked the powerful impact force, and cracks appeared faintly. Ying Chenlin frowned slightly, his eyes quickly swept across all the reports in the mecha system, and quickly judged the current situation.
Ji Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Zhao, I'm grateful to have you!"
Zhao Lejie interrupted ruthlessly, "Thank you later."
You Su looked at the pollution value in the visual channel: "--The pollution value stopped at 5500 and did not continue to drop. This is good news. There may be more than one high-level pollutant in this place."
Zhao Lejie was silent for a while before he said, "You kids call this good news!?"
Lin Yao's eyes lit up: "5500, this is at least a Class A mutation."
Ji Qingfeng said, "So this means there is another sum of money coming in? Where is that thing?"
Zhao Lejie: “…”
"Then I have some bad news, do you want to hear it?"
Zhao Lejie said expressionlessly: "My mecha's energy is only 30% left."
Lin Yao: “?”
Ji Qingfeng: “???”
Ying Chenlin looked up and saw the condition of the protective shield, and said bluntly: "30% of the energy cannot support 70% of the protective output."
Ji Qingfeng's mind was still confused: "What do you mean?"
Ying Chenlin said: "That is to say, this protective shield is about to break."
Just as he finished speaking, the protective shield cracked, followed by a popping sound, and the entire shield shattered into spots of light in front of them.
The author has something to say:
KID: What good news!
Comrade Xiao Zhao: Bad news xNNNNN.
There will be additional nutrient solution at midnight!
