Chapter 391 In the dark night of the 1254th year of the Rose Federation .
Three tall white mechas were still speeding on the rails, shuttling through the desolate and dark wilderness at high speed. The indicator lights on the edges of the mechas drew long dark red tracks, which were inconspicuous.
As the sight got closer to the three mechas, a sense of oppression began to slowly emerge from the outlines. The violent wind pressure generated by the driving was like a whistle, blowing suddenly from the ground, and then quickly disappeared.
300 kilometers per hour? 500 kilometers per hour? Or 800 kilometers per hour, at such a speed, even a tiny stone would bring a huge impact.
The North Fourth District covers an area of about 1.6 million square kilometers. Most of this vast land is uninhabited desert, Gobi, and rocky surface. The erosion of poisonous rain has permanently changed the landforms of most areas of the Emerald Skirt. Perhaps five hundred years ago, this was still a densely forested purple sea of trees, but now only white rocks are exposed on the ground.
The red dot on the screen was getting closer and closer. The high-speed mecha began to open the built-in radar scan. The colorless microwave ripples spread in all directions like water. The satellites in the outer orbit of the planet also assisted in calibrating each point and situation.
In the distance of the dark horizon, a faint halo appeared faintly. It was the towering floodlight tower in the mine. The curved railroad track led there, as if it led to the other side of the distant hill.
[The B-28 team is approaching the destination. The current situation is normal.]
The screen began to reflect the surrounding terrain and scenes. At present, everything was safe and blue, and there was no abnormality.
After ending this communication, the three mechas gradually increased their speed and rushed towards the dark hill at high speed. Then they suddenly jumped up, and the giant mine vortex like the eye of hell appeared in the field of vision.
The cold night wind blew across the outside of the mech, and the air wave caused by the sudden change of trajectory hit the lonely lamppost outside the mine, causing it to fly and fall. Then the mech was suspended in the air and kept approaching the mine. The cameras on the outside kept collecting intelligence in the field of vision, which was analyzed and processed by AI, and then marked one by one in the driver's field of vision.
The only light in the entire mine was in the center of the giant mine pit, which was the open space at the bottom. Two lonely floodlight towers stood. A giant excavator nearly 100 meters high was quietly parked there at this moment. Ropes were hung on the high-hanging large excavation arm, and there were residual bloodstains below. At the top of the excavation arm, seven men sat on the edge of the suspension, with their hands raised high, as if to declare that they had no intention of resisting and praying for surrender.
Compared with this black and yellow giant mining machine, the few people on it were as small as ants, but because of the searchlights on the machine, these seven people also looked particularly eye-catching.
[The B-28 team has found the target, and the other group expressed surrender. ]
The three mechas slowly approached the center of the mine, and then stopped on one side of the square at the bottom of the mine. Although the 30-meter-high mechas had sharp edges and a sharp appearance, they still looked a little petite in front of the nearly 100-meter-high industrial machinery.
After scanning and confirming again and again, the mecha drivers gradually put their minds at ease. Although this mission was a bit unexpected, the situation they encountered was not so unexpected. They began to deploy small autonomous units, block and protect the scene, and then contacted the command center at the rear.
Knowing that it would take another 2 hours for the military and police aircraft responsible for detention and arrest to arrive, the three mechas dispersed slightly and stopped at the outer edge of the mine square, waiting patiently.
An hour later, 7 men in work clothes communicated through the public frequency, expressing their hope to go to the toilet and put on more clothes because it was too cold at night.
In response, the driver contacted the rear command center and temporarily allowed the other side to move, so the 7 people began to slowly climb down the mechanical arm and enter the building facilities at the bottom of the mine.
Although it was not appropriate to leave the sight of the mecha, this was a wilderness, and even if the seven wanted to escape, there was no way. Any small aircraft or hovercraft that took off could be shot down by the mecha in an instant.
Just when a driver felt a little bored and wanted to listen to music, a buzzing sound came from the silent mining machinery, and then the sound became louder and louder, making people suddenly have a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the high-hanging mechanical excavation arm suddenly swept down, and the giant circular saw originally used to cut rocks rotated to a crazy speed, as if the driver inside pulled its lever to the limit.
Looking at the industrial mechanical arm that was rapidly attacking overhead, the mecha driver below uttered two words faintly, "Stupid."
The back and sides of the white mecha suddenly spurted out blue airflow, flexibly avoiding the pressing mechanical arm, allowing it to chop on the ground, emitting violent sparks and sharp sounds.
Afterwards, two blue laser beams lit up the night sky, and the high-hanging mechanical arm was partially penetrated, exposing its internal transmission structure and electronic unit, and several dark red burn wounds appeared.
Soon after, the high-raised mechanical arm fell heavily to the ground like the severed head of a giant dragon, smashing the water-polished ground of the square and lifting the broken floor.
After dealing with this huge and bloated mining mechanical arm, three mechas floated in the air, constantly shooting at the 100-meter-high large machine in the center of the mine. The cold and sharp sound of lasers breaking through the air continued to sound, constantly breaking the powerful industrial machinery made of special steel into pieces and tearing the steel components inside.
These military mechas are not the toy-like riot control units in the city. The laser machine guns they are equipped with not only have the rapidity of high-energy particles but also powerful kinetic impact. One shot is enough to break the hovercraft, which is known as the best protected on the market, into debris and flames.
Fire and explosions continued to sound, dark red flames sizzled, and black smoke rose from the ground. As the three mechas methodically dismembered the huge industrial machinery, a special warhead shot down from the distant night sky and suddenly exploded when it was about to reach the bottom of the mine. In an instant, blue current swept the entire mine. The wild running electric light made the mine with a diameter of several kilometers shine instantly, and then extinguished.
Under the impact of this strong current, the three mechas were paralyzed and fell down, but the drivers inside were not worried. They knew that it would only take a few seconds for the system in the mecha to automatically restart, and such a move would be difficult to take effect next time as long as they were prepared.
[System restarting 0%...34%...56%...]
The scale on the display jumped almost every second, and it would be completed soon, but it seemed that they didn't give them a chance. At the moment when the electric current warhead was shot out, a black shadow jumped up from the ground and rushed towards a paralyzed mecha that fell to the ground.
"Zizi——" The specially made beam dagger was inserted into the outer edge of the mecha's shoulder, and a hole was torn in the sparks.
In the gap of the white armor, a hidden input interface was violently opened, and the twisted armor shell showed the terrifying power of the actor.
Then a black plug was connected, and behind the data cable, a small black box was pasted next to it, and a lot of data was displayed on the small screen.
[Begin to take over the body, the interference program is started, the decoding begins... the key is being cracked...]
A burst of snowflakes flashed on the screen inside the body, and various garbled graphics began to appear, and the progress disk that had been restarted before was also frozen at the 87% position and no longer advanced.
The driver, who realized something was wrong, immediately reacted and realized that this mission was a conspiracy. He pulled the manual switch of the cockpit, pulled out the spare beam sword, and then jumped out with all his strength.
The cold night wind made people nervous. After jumping out of the cockpit, a fierce attack suddenly came from the darkness. In a hurry, he raised his hand to block it. He only heard the sound of bones breaking. Then his vision became clear and he could see the man in front of him.
In the distance, there were burning industrial machinery. There was an unpleasant smell of burning plastic in the air. In the dim firelight, the side of the man was slightly exposed, reflecting his tough and rough face.
"Who are you? Do you know the consequences of doing this?" Although he was questioning, the driver had no intention of stopping. As the magic power was poured into the hilt of the sword in his hand, a lightsaber as thick as two fingers shot out. The high-energy vibration particles were particularly eye-catching in the dark night. Then the protective accessories on his waist also lit up, and a layer of light blue and white barrier wrapped him up. The constantly jumping radiated particles told of a simple and unpretentious power.
"I know what I'm doing. I don't need you to remind me."
The man standing on the fallen mecha took a few steps and then jumped up. A sharp kick shattered the barrier constructed by the protective accessories in an instant. The outer shell of the barrier broke into countless small pieces, and then continued to disintegrate into extinguished starlight particles.
When the opponent kicked him down, the driver also clenched the lightsaber and slashed it diagonally. The light yellow blazing beam crossed the night sky, leaving a dazzling track.
"Zizi--"
A dragon-like claw firmly grasped the blazing lightsaber. The high-temperature particles in it washed away, producing a burnt smell and dark red substances like lava. The severe pain stimulated the man's nerves, making him frown and his pupils widen. Then he dragged the lightsaber in his hand and grabbed the opponent's neck with one hand, lifting the driver up.
The suffocating pressure on the neck made the driver unable to breathe, and his head and face turned purple, as if he was held in the palm of a giant dragon. With just a little force, he could break his neck, and he had no doubt that the opponent had this power.
The Dragon Sequence, a rare supernatural sequence in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Field, still has a terrifying combat power that exceeds that of most supernaturals of the same level.
With a clang, the originally blazing lightsaber fell from the hands of the gradually weakened and unconscious driver, hitting the outer layer of the mecha, and then rolled and disappeared into the night.
In the dark night, the dark red flames were still burning in the collapsed industrial machinery, and the three sharp white military mechas were now lying on the ground. A group of people wearing messy clothes ran out from the hiding place. Some of them joined forces to subdue the driver who jumped out, and some took a briefcase-like industrial AI terminal and connected it to the interface exposed by the torn mecha, and began to continuously debug and crack the system and control key.
Not long after, a member holding a black rifle trotted over to the man standing on the mecha and overlooking.
"Brother Long, it's done. The three mechas have been initially controlled. Although they are not usable yet, it is not difficult to tow them back and find a few skilled hackers on the dark web to have them decompile an operating system."
In response, the man standing in the shadows on the high ground nodded slightly, then looked at the horizon.
"In a while, their emergency support team will arrive, let's move first."
"Yes!" The member answered excitedly, standing at attention, and then asked curiously.
"Then what about the seven people before? I feel that keeping them is not very useful." There was some disgust and contempt in his voice.
"Keep them. Since you promised, you must do it." The man patted the shoulder of the member in front of him, and the heavy force almost made the other person stand unsteadily.
"I was wrong, Brother Long." Knowing that this was a warning to himself, the young member immediately lowered his head.
Then the group of people loaded the mechas into the large black aircraft that landed on the ground. With the dull sound of starting, the three aircraft slowly started, then flew low into the distance, slowly disappeared in the night, leaving only a mess of mine ruins.
The dim floodlights still shone a pale light. In the burning firelight, the buildings in the mine slowly collapsed, crushing one side of the gate. The side of the gate was full of rust and corrosion. Next to the company name, there were several dense lines of small characters, writing the company's vision and past, but these words are now blurred and probably no one will pay attention to them anymore.
'Purple Sophora Mining Company': In order to allow the residents of the North Fourth District who were displaced due to environmental degradation to obtain a stable living environment, and to compensate those residents of the North Fourth District who were unable to move away due to poverty, the Federal Star Region Government, in accordance with the regulations, under the supervision of the investigation team sent by the Central Council, reorganized the remaining natural resources and material heritage of the North Fourth District, merged them into the company's name, and conducted bidding operations. The company will absorb the poor and disaster-stricken residents of the North Fourth District, and the profits will also be used to restore the environment of the North Fourth District and improve the living conditions of the residents in the area.
——Recorded in December 1039 of the Sixth Era.
Then a lot of names and group signatures were added to the column below, indicating that the company had a rough fate. It had been sold and reorganized dozens of times over the years, and its business and operating scope were constantly split and sold, until it was finally abandoned on the frozen land of the desert like rusty scrap metal that no one needed.
This is the past and history of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region. In the eyes of many people, it may be just a piece of ruined factory buildings and desert land, but in the eyes of some eyewitnesses, it is a gray, boring, and almost dry life in past memories.
Who is responsible for this situation, or who caused all this, has long been entangled in nearly a hundred years of debate. Many people are unwilling to recall these past events and just want to escape from this sad world.
Happiness and beautiful fairy tales do exist. They exist in those prosperous areas. Merchants will carefully and meticulously weave dreams one by one, making people linger.
The ugly and dirty reality also exists. It exists in those barren and abandoned areas. When survival becomes a problem, many beautiful fig leaves no longer exist, and people no longer have the energy to pursue those noble qualities.
Blame cannot accomplish anything. Blaming others without telling them practical methods will not change anything. Change means achieving something, but blaming will not achieve anything.
Change is not just verbal teaching and empty words of comfort, but actually creating a soil environment for beautiful things to take root and sprout.
Now, the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region has ushered in its 876th year, and the Rose Federation has also ushered in its 1254th year of birth. At a dividing point between youth and aging, whether it is up or down, forward or backward, everything is still unknown. In this year, our lovable young singer has just celebrated her 17th birthday and is hesitantly looking forward to the future.
