Chapter 147: Silent Gunshots
In an instant, Shi Chen thought about countless feasible strategies, but he rejected them one by one.
Gritting his teeth, Shi Chen immediately opened the hatch and jumped off the mecha, shouting to Nolan: "Hurry and give her to me! Another mecha is already chasing her!"
"It's you!" Nolan's eyes widened the moment he saw Shi Chen jump off the mecha, and then he was relieved.
Luo Jiat did not hide Shi Chen's identity from his subordinates. After Shi Chen defeated the Blackstone Military District in the mecha virtual combat battle last time, Nolan had vaguely guessed the identity of the driver, and only Shi Chen could
A kind of 'mecha master' can change the trajectory of mecha sniper projectiles with just a piece of ordinary dough.
Facing this half-student who had taught mecha piloting skills by himself, Nolan looked at Shi Chen with more complicated eyes, and his mind turned over and over again, but he said without any hesitation, "Okay! But I
Must be together!”
Nolan had already judged the dire situation at hand and Shi Chen's plan as soon as Shi Chen appeared and made the request.
If they were on foot, it would take at least seven minutes for them to rush out of the school gate of Yuechi. However, in this short period of time, their position would have been exposed and they would be killed countless times by another mecha.
So at this moment, taking Isa aboard Shi Chen's old 'Assaulter M70' mecha was a glimmer of hope. Although the mecha without any weapons or any external armor looked particularly insecure.
.
But what Nolan didn't expect was that Shi Chen refused without any hesitation. He looked a little tangled and found an excuse: "No! The cockpit is too narrow. Two people are already the limit. If you continue
If you squeeze in, it will seriously affect my performance!"
However, what Shi Chen also didn't expect was that Nolan just frowned and hesitated for half a second, then nodded and agreed, "Okay! But you must ensure Isa's safety, otherwise I will never let you go!"
Without waiting for Shi Chen to agree to this slightly naive or childish condition, he turned to Isa and whispered softly: "Your Highness! Follow him quickly! Let's buy some time for you."
Isa is also not the kind of little girl who ignores the overall situation and is ignorant. She knows better than anyone else how bad the impact will be if she dies. She nodded, but she touched Nolan's cheek and bit her lower lip with some bitterness.
He smiled and said: "I will leave! But you must promise me not to do stupid things, let alone die! Then I will regret and blame myself for the rest of my life. I believe Aunt Nolan doesn't want me to spend the rest of my life in regret, right?"
Compared to Nolan, Isa also understands how vulnerable an individual soldier is in front of a war machine like a mecha. Containing him head-on is no different than seeking death!
Nolan also laughed when he heard this, rubbed Isa's blond hair that was a little scattered due to the escape, nodded heavily and said: "Who am I! I am the seventh knight of the Round Table, how could I die so easily?
In a place like this!"
"Promise me!" Isa's expression was extremely serious.
Nolan's smile became even brighter, "Okay, I promise you, our little Isha has finally grown up."
Shi Chen glanced at his watch and interrupted with a somewhat inhumane voice: "We have to go! Every second we delay, there will be ten more dangers!"
Nolan let go of his hand and nodded to Shi Chen with a stern expression, indicating that he could take the person away.
Shi Chen also responded with a military salute he learned from Xu Qiusheng. His hands were connected from Isa's soft and boneless waist, and he took advantage of the rough mechanical legs of the 'Assaulter M70' and jumped in lightly.
In the cockpit.
There was a heavy sound of the engine starting, and the attacker took heavy footsteps, carrying Isha and running towards the Yuechi school gate closest to the block.
"I'm sorry, Isa, but I can't promise you this time. If you survive this disaster, I'll apologize to you in person."
Watching the attacker's back disappear from sight, Nolan turned his attention to his subordinates: "Silver Cross Seventh Regiment, obey the order!"
"Yes! Sir!"
"Everyone hides! Prepare to sniper the enemy! Target! Enemy mecha's external sight!" Nolan waved his hand, full of determination.
"Yes! Sir!" The officers and soldiers of the 7th Silver Cross Regiment also looked solemn. Under Nolan's command, they hid on both sides of the trees on the road.
Nolan came alone to the mecha that fell in the middle of the road and inspected it. After confirming that the pilot was dead, he took out some coils and small instruments from his backpack and started to play with the remains of the mecha.
Get up and quickly pick up the afterimage.
One minute and thirty-four seconds later, Nolan completed a simple connection to the mecha's engine system and wiped the sweat from his forehead. At this time, the ground shook again.
Nolan narrowed her eyes slightly and also escaped into the woods on the right side of the road. She understood that even if she was wearing the latest tactical uniform, it might be scanned by the infrared detector of the local mecha at this distance, so this time
Combat is extremely dangerous, but as a Royal Knight of the Round Table, she cannot sit back and watch Her Highness Isa do nothing while being in mortal danger.
Even if she can't defeat the enemy, she will try to wear down some of the opponent's strength and buy more time for Isa and the others, even if it may only be a few dozen seconds!
The vibrations on the ground became louder and louder, and more than four seconds later, another mecha finally appeared in everyone's sight.
It seemed to be attracted by the wreckage of the mecha. After a brief inspection with the infrared scanner and no problems were found, it came to the wreckage of the mecha. A small robotic arm poked out from its lower abdomen, and it seemed to want to
Open the cockpit.
But the mechanical arm was only halfway out, but it suddenly froze in mid-air. The pilot seemed to finally notice something was wrong. The already broken stone slabs on the ground were shattered again, and the mecha's shoulders spurted flames, and it tried its best to eject behind it.
.
Nolan pressed the virtual button of the terminal with some regret, and shouted at the same time: "Fire!"
As her voice fell, the remains of the mecha suddenly twisted and turned red as if it had encountered a dramatic change in high temperature. As if after breaking through a critical value, a dazzling light suddenly appeared, and then violently exploded, covering the stone slabs with a radius of more than 30 meters.
They were blown away directly, and the trees on both sides of the road fell down under the scorching shock wave like a passing typhoon, and then turned into torches and burned violently.
The officers of the 7th Silver Cross Regiment, who were hiding four hundred meters away on both sides of the road, braved the scorching wind and began to unleash their firepower crazily on the mecha's head in the light, popping out countless tiny bullets on the mecha's body.
Fireworks.
The mecha that was blown away by the shock wave generated by the explosion of the engine spun three times in mid-air and landed heavily. Its two thick mechanical legs plowed out two paths of more than 60 meters on the stone slabs of the campus like a human body standing on a horse.
long ravine.
The pilot's reaction was surprisingly fast. As soon as his faceplate received the shot, he raised one robotic arm to firmly protect the external vision device on the left side of his neck, while the other robotic arm pulled out the tactical weapon behind his back.
The rifle, directed towards the place where the gunfire came from, began to fire back sharply.
Although the rate of fire of this tactical rifle is far less than that of a submachine gun, its power is astonishing. With every shot, a long and transparent hole will appear in the burning woods, and then the sound of gunfire will fall into eternal silence.
.
In thirteen seconds, the silver mecha fired thirteen shots, thirteen terrifying holes appeared in the woods beside the road, and the sound of thirteen gunshots disappeared forever.
Just when it fired its last shot in the southeast direction, a bullet passed through the fingers of the robotic arm and hit the external sight at the neck. There was a crystal clear sound, and the machine
A's last shot inevitably missed, but the sound of the gunshot also disappeared.
This kind of mecha tactical rifle, even if it is a little biased, the explosive shrapnel with the bonus of shock wave is enough to rival a small howitzer.
Therefore, the pilot did not doubt that he was there, and he chased the driving traces left by the mecha in front of him in some embarrassment. If the mecha carried the target and escaped from the campus, his time would also be running out.
, and the bullet hit the external sight. Although the sight system was not destroyed, the sight full of cracks and blind spots would also seriously affect the accuracy of his shooting.
After the vibrations on the ground disappeared, in the grove full of scorch marks, a hand covered in dark red blood poked out from the fluffy dust, and then a head covered in plant ash also came out. It was the one who had been shot outside.
Nolan, who narrowly escaped with his life.
"I'm not dead. I'm really lucky! Rojiat and the others will definitely make fun of me."
Nolan laughed at himself with pain and bitterness. Thinking of the gunshots that gradually fell into silence, two mottled wet marks suddenly dripped down his cheeks stained with plant ash. He murmured: "Shi Chen, you must not let me
My comrades died in vain!"
