Chapter 71
Chapter 71
When the voice rang out on the communication channel, everyone immediately flew upwards. The collapse of the ground and mountains seemed to happen in just a moment. All the flying mecha pilots looked down and saw the mountain below disappearing at an extremely fast speed, followed by a void of black halo.
Lu Xi pulled Lin Yao back a few steps. Seeing that the aperture was spreading faster and faster, she hurriedly fired a water bullet. When the water bullet hit the black aperture, its speed suddenly slowed down, and then it was merged into the aperture and disappeared without a trace.
"Swallowed..." Lu Xi was stunned.
Lin Yao was stunned: "What kind of monster is this!?"
"What the hell is this!"
“It eats up the pollutants and the mountains!”
"Back off! It's still expanding!"
The communication channel sounded again: "Keep your distance, the black hole is still spreading outward."
The surrounding mecha pilots also saw this scene and were extremely grateful for the reminder they received in the channel. If they had taken off a little later, they would probably have been swallowed up by the mysterious black halo just like the surrounding mountains. They watched as the pollutants they had just hit were gradually swallowed up by the black hole, and then disappeared without a trace.
On Starnet, what happened in the A-14 area was unexpected.
[Fuck, what is this thing!] 】
[It’s so scary, half of the mountain is gone! 】
[Fortunately the mecha masters ran fast, otherwise
I just didn't swallow it. 】
[But it is still spreading outward!] ! 】
In the Mecha Alliance, the Mecha Base, which was originally paying attention to the situation in the Qiujin Grand Canyon, could no longer sit still, especially when it saw the black hole appear. Inside the Gale Base, Qi Sicheng had already put on his combat uniform and turned his head to look at Brother Zhang who had been contacting the Alliance Headquarters: "No news yet?"
"In contact!"
Brother Zhang: "Damn, it's busy again?? How many people are communicating with the alliance!?"
The mecha master next to him said worriedly: "Captain Qi, if we go to support now, we may not be able to catch up with the promotion match later."
Zhao Lejie put on his coat and brought an extra mecha as a backup. "What? If something really happened to Qiu Jin, do you think the Shuguang League can be held on time?"
Qi Sicheng frowned and said, "No need to contact him anymore, let's go directly there."
In the main control room, staff were anxiously busy testing the energy data of the A-14 area.
"Director, there are traces of contaminants on this black hole!"
“It swallowed so many things. Is it a pollutant or a reaction to the pollutants it swallowed???”
"No... this pollutant reaction should be its own reaction." A staff member looked at the data that popped up in front of him, opened the virtual screen to the main screen, and swallowed, "The pollutant reaction swallowed by the black hole has disappeared."
As soon as the voice came out, the entire control room fell silent.
So many pollutants were swallowed by this thing and then disappeared...?
Person in charge: “No reaction at all?”
The staff confirmed several times: "No."
"What if the mecha was swallowed..."
"Just now a mecha pilot tried to attack, but the shell was swallowed by it."
Person in charge: "Contact the alliance immediately!!"
In the control room, no one dared to guess the possible consequences. There was no reaction when there were so many pollutants in the field, not to mention the mecha made with pollutant materials. Some staff were busy connecting with others, while others were watching the mecha pilots evacuate quickly.
“What happens if it doesn’t stop?”
"...Qiujin will disappear."
Inside the A-26 base station, the staff were stunned. The magnetic field had just shown an increase in intensity. Ying Chenlin contacted the control room without saying a word and used the base station's command channel to have everyone evacuate immediately. If they had acted a little later, the expanding black hole would have swallowed up all the mecha pilots.
Ying Chenlin stared at the data jumping on the screen, watching the blue dots representing the mecha pilots moving away from the core magnetic field area, and his anxious heart was temporarily relieved.
The staff looked at the expanding black circle and asked, "What on earth is this thing?! It's swallowing something again. Didn't they say before that it might have brought the pollutants here?"
Ying Chenlin looked at the main screen, "The black hole's diffusion rate has stabilized, but the magnetic field strength has also increased."
Its speed returned to the speed it had just been hiding, but the size of the expanded aperture did not shrink back... This situation became more and more similar to the FS accident in the previous life.
"Mr. Ying, what should we do now? Let it continue to spread?"
Ying Chenlin lowered his eyes slightly. The strength in his right hand had not yet fully recovered, and the fatigue in his body had not disappeared. The communication channel with the Central Control Bureau was filled with various voices. The busy staff were choosing the best solution. He could not be sure whether all the situations would go in a different direction from his previous life.
The only thing we know is that the emergence of black holes is closely related to magnetic fields.
The real-life image is affected by the magnetic field, producing a crackling electric current image. The base station's detection system cannot get close enough to shoot the black hole, and clear image monitoring is only possible from a long-distance perspective. Ying Chenlin gritted his teeth and connected directly to the main control room, "Director, use all base station intelligence to calculate the magnetic field changes of the black hole. It is a pollutant, not a phenomenon."
The person in charge nodded and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Find its weakness." Ying Chenlin said.
The other staff members looked at the huge monster that appeared on the screen. This pollutant was so weird that all attacks were ineffective. How could they find its weakness? ?
Ying Chenlin continued: "I hope you can give me the authority to command."
The others in the control room were stunned when they saw this and were about to speak.
The person in charge waved his hand to stop others from speaking, "What do you want to do?"
"Magnetic field." Ying Chenlin uttered two words in a concise and shocking manner.
Inside the field, the mecha operators kept their distance from the black hole and did not dare to get any closer.
When You Su and his companions just arrived, they saw this horrifying scene. Several of them stepped forward to help other mecha pilots retreat, carefully keeping their distance.
Lin Yao turned around and saw someone: "Da Feng, you are here."
Ji Qingfeng: "I thought I was on the night shift. What the hell is this night shift? Where did this black hole come from?"
Luxi: "...It seems to have popped out from under a rock."
Hu Luobu: "Do you still have time to chat? Move back a little, don't get sucked into that circle."
You Su looked at the black halo in the distance and frowned tightly.
Theo's voice was clear: "This thing is so weird!"
All the mecha pilots did not dare to get close, but they could only watch the black hole expand outward again at a slow speed. They could only use long-range weapons to try to bombard the black hole in an attempt to slow down its expansion speed.
The night is coming in Qiujin, and the darkness is swallowing up the light in the sky.
It had a great impact on the mecha pilots' field of vision. The black hole was already dark, and at night, the edges became too blurry.
Colin frowned: "It's troublesome."
"No matter how good your eyesight is, you can't see it clearly!" Ji Qingfeng looked at the radar. The result of the detection was a bright red patch. It was impossible to judge its size by the radar. "No way, the mecha can also be broken at this time?"
The arrival of night made the mecha masters in the field even more uneasy.
At this time, the voice from the A-26 base station sounded again in the communication channel: "Mechanized divisions with a loss of more than 55% should immediately retreat from the A-14 area. A-26 has sufficient supplies. Mechanized divisions within the safety line should retreat. The core coordinates have been sent to your mecha systems. Please keep a safe distance of more than 1,000 meters from the core coordinates at all times."
In the panic just now, the mecha operators did not listen carefully. They only knew that someone spoke in the communication channel, and they took immediate action to avoid danger.
But now the voice sounded again, and they found that this voice was particularly young, completely different from the voice of the staff in the control room who had issued the instructions before. Just when they were confused and wanted to ask, they suddenly noticed that the sound signal of the A-26 base station was marked in yellow.
Yellow label, the symbol of the highest command in wartime.
This shows that the other party's command authority was granted by the Qiujin Administration.
"Jiang Yu, what are you still standing there for? Step back."
Jiang Yu's gaze rested on the red mechas gathered together in the distance, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He flew upwards, keeping a distance from the black hole of light, and said, "Back off."
The friend asked, "Can't I tell you're distracted?"
The communication channel was silent, with only the voice of command remaining.
The mecha system displays signals from the outside, and various information is synchronized with the mecha. Jiang Yu lowered his head slightly, his eyes fixed on the yellow-labeled base station sound signal. He asked his friend in confusion, "Do you think that sound is familiar?"
My friend was puzzled: "Which voice is that, A-26? I haven't heard of it, it sounds quite young."
There are many young mecha technicians among them, so it is not surprising to hear such sounds under normal circumstances. But for those who would enter the communication channel to give commands, such voices were a bit strange. They were used to the voices of those uncles in the Administration Bureau, and even encountered a few bad-tempered ones who couldn't speak the common language of the Dawn Galaxy correctly.
My friend said, "It sounds quite comfortable, much better than the voice of that director just now."
It would be embarrassing if one could not speak Mandarin correctly, and he felt that the leader of each administration should master the common language.
Jiang Yu said: "I think it sounds a bit like a sink."
When the friend heard this, he laughed out loud: "No way, Jiang Yu, even if you have watched the video of the sink fighting countless times, you can't just catch someone and say he is a sink?"
Jiang Yu explained: "I have heard his voice. When he went on a mission to the contaminated area in the early days, there was a channel recording his voice."
"No movie or TV drama is as exaggerated as you. You can recognize people by just listening to their voices." My friend said, "I know you are a fan of sink, but you have retired."
"Moreover, Sink has never appeared in public. When he retired, so many people wanted to find him but couldn't find him. He didn't join a mecha base and had an S-class mecha. Starnet said that Sink retired and went home to inherit the family business. How could he appear in such a place? The Alliance will not issue a call-up to a retired mecha master."
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, but looked at the red mechas in the distance.
Before entering Qiujin, he saw images of a battle in a certain area when he passed by. There were two gun mechas at the time, and the operation of one of the gun mechas was very similar to that of the sink.
Suddenly, he saw KID's only gun mecha move.
You Su looked at the situation and quickly operated the detection system inside the mecha.
Theo's voice rang in my ears: "The magnetic field is very strange, and the traces of pollutants are also very messy. I can't give an accurate report after calculating the upper limit."
"Stand back."
You Su took a few steps back and began to charge the sniper cannon in his hand.
KID and his companions immediately flew back a long distance, and other mecha pilots also avoided them upon seeing this.
The next second, the sniper shell with 100% power hit the empty black hole. The sniper shell was slowed down the moment it hit the circle of light. Before it exploded, it seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and finally the entire shell was swallowed by the black hole.
You Su asked: "Are there any other reactions?"
He was not asking the mecha technicians in the field, but the people who had been observing the situation here.
Ying Chenlin looked at the main screen and replied, "When you hit it, its magnetic field slightly increased."
"Then try again and aim carefully." You Su gathered his strength again.
In the Qiujin control room, everyone was paying attention to You Su and also recording the black hole's reaction to energy.
The other mecha masters stepped back several steps, keeping a distance from You Su and the black hole. Ji Qingfeng was always ready, ready to use the sickle to pull You Su away at any time.
The situation in the field forced them to communicate too much. The emergency situation forced all the mecha divisions in the A-14 area to evacuate more than a thousand meters away from the core coordinates. After keeping a distance, they watched the huge monster that blended into the darkness and the night.
In the dark night, airborne pollutants rushed in, and to make matters worse, they appeared in the A-14 area.
Ji Qingfeng turned his head and almost lost control of the chain in his hand: "No way, how come these pollutants are more active in working the night shift than me?"
Hu Luobu was speechless and said, "What kind of fucking night shift is this? Are you going to die by working the night shift?"
You Su frowned slightly. In order to avoid the attack of flying pollutants, he had to put away the charged sniper cannon.
Colin frowned. They were now faced with a very embarrassing situation. They could not deal with the black hole, and had to face interference from flying pollutants from all directions.
The other mecha masters discussed quietly.
"The black hole cannot be hit. There is no output environment."
"There are also flying pollutants approaching this direction!"
"It's too chaotic. The mechas with high wear and tear just retreated. Now we don't have enough manpower to stop them."
There are currently 17 mecha divisions in the A-14 area. Except for the 4 mechas with high wear and tear, including Lin Yaoluxi, who need to return to the base station for replenishment and replacement, the other 13 mechas are all participating in the battle. As the mecha division was evacuating, the main screen in front of Ying Chenlin showed all the information about the A-14 area.
There is analytical information, and in the middle is the real-time monitoring data from the scene, "There are enough people, 4 people have left, and there are 13 people left."
Ying Chenlin continued:
"There are 2 tanks, 2 guns, 2 controls, 5 individual soldiers, and one each for the other hidden guards."
“It can be done through cooperation.”
Hearing Ying Chenlin's voice, the mecha masters who were discussing stopped.
The mecha masters who were fighting alone frowned. They had always fought alone, and their mechas were not capable of cooperating with others.
A soldier spoke up: "A soldier is a mecha that fights alone, so our coordination may not be effective."
Coordination is a matter of awareness. To cooperate with others in such a chaotic situation, the mecha divisions in team battles have the awareness of cooperation, but the individual soldiers who are used to fighting alone do not have it. When they were clearing the pollutants just now, they had been avoiding the area where the group battle mechas were located to avoid friction caused by the different fighting styles of both sides.
The situation is even more chaotic now, and we have to cooperate with the mecha division in group battles in such an environment.
It’s not that they are refusing or causing trouble, it’s that they are unable to keep up with the orderly coordination rhythm of team battles, their effectiveness is not great, and they are likely to fall behind.
"You don't need to coordinate efficiently." Ying Chenlin said clearly and orderly: "You all carry long-range artillery weapons, right? Two individual S-25 energy cannons, two individual S1-77 snipers, and one individual KL tracking."
His voice was calm. "They are all modified weapons. The initial models should be correct, right?"
Jiang Yu paused when he heard this, and replied, "Yes."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only the regimental battle mecha divisions, but also everyone else in the control room stopped.
Team battles and individual combat are two different fields, and the difference in these fields lies in weapons, mechas, mechanisms, etc. Many people present identified the weapons, but at most they only knew the type of weapon, such as a sniper cannon. The initial model is even more difficult to identify. The initial model is equivalent to a weapon embryo, and it requires observation to identify it from details such as the style of the weapon.
Person in charge: "...As expected of a maintenance engineer, his eyes are so sharp."
The battle scene was so chaotic, who would have thought that Ying Chenlin could actually see the weapons.
And that was a single-person artillery weapon, not one they used in group battles.
Ying Chenlin: "That's no problem. The embryos of these models are durable and accurate. They are not as strong as the artillery weapons used in group battles, but they can barely be used as guns."
Single soldier: “?”
What's the meaning? Let them be used as gunners and mechas.
"All mecha divisions move closer, the tank-controlled mechas stand in pairs, the sides are for the guards and the hidden ones, and the middle is for the guns and artillery." Ying Chenlin finished speaking and continued, "The individual soldiers, sniper soldiers and guns and artillery are in the middle, and the other three individual soldiers find vacancies on the sides and stand in a circle."
Ke Lin immediately understood what Ying Chenlin wanted to do, and he immediately adjusted his direction, "Leave the scene to me."
He quickly mentioned a few arrangements in the channel.
The individual mecha soldiers didn't care and just followed the others.
The coordination of the regiment battle mecha divisions was extremely efficient. They knew what formation the commander would adopt almost as soon as they heard the order. They quickly cleared the nearby pollutants, created a vacuum zone without pollutants, and left space for individual soldiers.
As soon as the position was vacated, three individual soldiers, except the one carrying the sniper gun, immediately filled it in.
There are more and more flying pollutants. After they gather in the middle, the pollutants move towards them.
Ying Chenlin's voice continued: "The outer mechas facing the black hole should keep their backs to each other and keep a distance of three meters upwards to provide vision for the guns and soldiers in the middle."
There are 13 people. Except for the four mechas in the middle, the other nine mechas are evenly distributed in the outer circle, protecting the middle tightly.
When Jiang Yu and his friends stood in the middle, what they saw was a complete protection circle, and they had an excellent output environment, facing the field of vision left for them by the surrounding mechas, and facing the direction of the black hole.
This does not require efficient coordination, all they have to deal with is the enemy in front of them.
"The current speed of the black hole is slow. The sniper cannon is the farthest away. We should keep the farthest safe distance to test it." Ying Chenlin checked the various environmental reports in the base station control room and adjusted them to the same layout as the maintenance technician's inspection table. All changes were visible to the naked eye. "The mecha in the middle maintains 100% energy and charges to face the black hole at 12 o'clock. The mechas at 6 o'clock and other positions aim to repel the pollutants and move forward."
"The speed is currently controllable. We are clearing out the pollutants faster than the black hole spreads."
You Su chuckled, and the sniper cannon in his hand fired before the other mecha divisions.
The other mecha soldiers armed with artillery weapons did not fall behind, and took over with their charged sniper cannons.
In the main control room, the person in charge shouted at the top of his lungs in his not-so-standard common language: "Don't waste the time the mecha master has given us. Quickly test the reaction of the black hole's magnetic field to energy! Don't miss any information, understand!"
On the Starnet, people who were paying attention to the situation could only see the distant perspective. They could see that all the mecha divisions were gathered together, retreating at a relative speed, while the mecha division in the middle was aiming at the black hole, firing one 100% sniper shot after another at the bottomless pit.
[Oh my god...they are surrounded by pollution. 】
[There is no encirclement at all. They are still advancing forward, fighting and retreating at the same time! 】
[Oh my god, I'm so nervous! 】
The advantage of team battle mechas is that their single ability is powerful, and this ability can achieve a powerful mutual complementary effect in certain situations. For example, now, the tank mecha and control mecha responsible for advancement are located at 6 o'clock. One person holds up the protective shield to withstand the pressure, and the control mecha division next to him controls the repulse. The individual soldiers, hidden soldiers, and guards on the side have time to repel the pollutants in front of them and then assist in the attack in the 6 o'clock direction.
In the main control room, everyone stared at the black hole and found that with the attack of the mecha master, the speed of the black hole actually slowed down, and the outer shape was actually shrinking.
However, the on-site environmental data showed that the intensity of the magnetic field did not weaken, but was in a steadily increasing state.
"The first time the black hole expanded and its speed increased was because the strength of the magnetic field increased, but now the increase in strength did not cause it to continue to expand but became smaller."
"Director, it seems that this is about to reach the critical value."
“Is there a critical value for the magnetic field strength?”
They knew nothing about black holes.
The characteristics of this pollutant can only be discovered during the trial process and a plan can be made.
The person in charge looked at the strength of the magnetic field. The current strength has not yet reached the highest strength recorded when KID bombarded it. He said, "It should not have reached the critical value yet. Let's see if it continues to shrink. We will stop when it reaches the highest value recorded."
Ying Chenlin was also looking at the environmental data. When the speed slowed down, he reminded: "The speed has decreased. Pay attention to the sniper range. The advance speed can be slowed down."
Huo Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I changed the mecha, otherwise the Devouring Shield would not be able to withstand this kind of attack."
Colin did not use the chain ball, but a large-scale controlled weapon: "Control the speed."
Ji Qingfeng still had the energy to look back at the gunner mecha division in the middle, and saw that the four mechas were firing one after another as if they were meeting performance indicators. "Hu Luobu, why are you slower than the other soldiers?"
Hu Luobu: "Is this still a matter of quantity?"
At this moment, the black hole in the distance stopped shrinking and stopped swallowing.
Everyone was attracted by its action, and the sniper gun's bombardment stopped instantly.
Suddenly, the magnetic field at the core of the black hole suddenly changed.
In the chaotic space, the faint clockwise rotating halo of power in the black light hole stopped at this moment, and then rotated counterclockwise at an extremely fast speed.
Ying Chenlin said urgently: "Protective shield, protect everyone!"
Huo Yan and another tank immediately stepped back and increased their energy. The front and rear protective shields covered all the mechas.
A figure suddenly appeared in the center of the black hole.
Everyone was stunned, and the reinforced alarm system in the mecha system suddenly sounded deafeningly.
[warn! More than 6,000 contamination reactions were detected! ]
All mecha masters: "..."
Hu Luobu: "This thing... not only eat it, but also spit it out?"
"Then it spits out something very advanced." Ji Qingfeng took a step back and swallowed his saliva: "It spits out an S-level one."
The author has something to say:
There will be additional updates in the evening!
I really can’t guarantee the time!
Come back before 10 o'clock QAQ See you in the evening~↑
