In his ears were the familiar sounds of the kinetic armor's joints moving, and an unusually standard electronic synthesized sound, reporting to each kinetic armor member the status of their respective armor. The scenery on both sides was flowing, and Sawyer turned his head regularly, observing.
Surrounding conditions. Because of its size, his kinetic armor is nearly three and a half meters tall, and its horizontal expansion is about three times that of the ordinary model, like an armored vehicle walking upright.
The communicator was unilaterally connected at this time, and Foster, the dragon knight from the middle position. He had never seen the signal flare and did not dare to lower his height too much. Through the dragon's perception, he did know that a large amount of smoke was spreading into the
Inside the mid-air forest, there were two people standing at each other. There was no fierce battle, which made it difficult for Foster to judge the situation below. But he was sure that one of them was Zero, and the other person's aura was similar to Zero.
Basically it defaults to Cassia as the target.
When Foster reached the extreme height, he received a feedback from Zero's explosive breath through dragon perception. At that time, Zero noticed him in mid-air.
What was left was Foster's real-time explanation of the situation. Sawyer, who had not received any other useful information, suddenly wondered whether this was a deliberate move by the enemy to induce them to gather together. Mr. Zero was aware of the target.
For this purpose, why did he not launch a signal flare himself to notify the teams on both sides to gather? When he thought of this, his doubts immediately expanded. Sawyer was thinking about various possibilities. He really wanted to climb an ancient tree to see that area.
It looked like smoke. He started to contact the members of the Holy Guard, and when he wanted to inform him of this doubt, the communication was passively connected again.
This time it came from the other team, the one led by Jeremy and Komishur. The person who spoke was Komishur. With a few simple words, Sawyer knew that there were also people on their side.
The same doubts. As a countermeasure, Mishuer and others chose to take half of the team and rush to the middle location where No. 0 was, while the remaining half followed at a slower pace in order to confirm that something had indeed happened in the middle.
After that, more timely support can be provided.
In response, Sawyer briefly explained the situation on his side.
"The smoke is most likely caused by Cassia." Sawyer said his analysis.
"The purpose is to attract us to come together." Kemishur continued, "Even without this smoke, I think after a certain period of time, Mr. Zero will use some means to bring us closer. But the current situation may allow us to come closer."
Get more support time and be fully prepared. Because Mr. Zero and Cassia should be confronting each other at this moment, and no one will make one more move, each waiting for the opportunity they think."
"I'm here to contact Tornos." Komishur said before the contact was cut off, "Captain Sawyer, the speed of your kinetic armor is indeed several levels faster than ours, but we must make decisions based on the actual situation from the Dragon Knight.
Adjustment. If we and Tornos cannot keep up with your speed, the worst result is that you will lead the kinetic armor team and face the target Cassia with Mr. Zero. I think you don’t want this to happen in your heart.
In addition, we said that we were supporting Mr. Zero, but in fact, apart from a few of us, the main combat force was the experimental subjects in the team. They are the main force fighting Cassia. I hope Captain Sawyer understands these situations.
"
"Of course, the specific decision will have to wait for the information observed by the dragon knight."
The speed slowed down unconsciously after that. With the speed and sustainability of the kinetic energy armor, the distance of about forty kilometers only took about fifteen or six minutes in a forest environment. Sawyer, who originally wanted to rush over immediately,
After listening to Kemishur's words, his thoughts immediately became confused.
Because what Mishuer said is not wrong, it is exactly what they should consider now.
"Captain?" The two vice-captains now caught up with Sawyer who was running at the front of the team. They simply believed that Sawyer had sensed something was wrong ahead of him, so they slowed down their speed in order to gain more reaction time.
"Just follow me." Sawyer did not explain. It was not something he was willing to say, and it was something that hurt morale. This kind of worry will cause a lot of worries and spread. In many cases, in high-intensity battles, just a little worry is enough.
It will cause flaws in oneself. Therefore, it is enough for oneself to know this kind of thing.
The two vice-captains did not ask any questions and retreated to the left and right flanks of the team again. Sawyer later made adjustments so that the team spread out even further, with the distance between each person reduced to about thirty meters.
Ten minutes after setting off, Sawyer simply calculated that the team had only traveled about 20 kilometers. On plain terrain or on built roads, ordinary kinetic energy armor can run at speeds of more than 200 kilometers per hour. For Sawyer,
As for them, with full power and their own strength, their data can be increased by another 20%. The current speed is definitely not the limit for them.
Time passed for about five minutes again, and the distance traveled was close to 30 kilometers. During the entire march, Mishuer and Dragon Knight Foster contacted him several times, one to check on the situation of the team on the other side, and the other to discuss the situation of the team on the other side.
It is the information observed by Dragon Rider in mid-air.
During this period of time, the dragon knight Heinoi, who had been between Sawyer and Tornos, also frequently explained the situation of their forest to Sawyer. He seemed quiet and did not observe the enemy team ambushing them.
On the other side, gray smoke continues to rise, and is currently gathering in a large area. Through the scope of the smoke, it can be determined that the fire field inside the forest has also spread to nearly two kilometers. Due to the fact that this is the depth of the forest, at a glance, it is full of ancient trees.
What can burn are dead leaves on the ground and the thick, dry bark of ancient trees. But for living ancient trees to burn, without other fuels as the initial guide, it is impossible to cause a considerable forest fire.
There was still no movement below. Within ten minutes, the two people whom Foster had locked onto using dragon senses almost remained in their original positions. The distance between them was almost unchanged, except that their positions moved sideways probably due to the spread of the fire.
More than a thousand meters away.
Sawyer couldn't analyze the situation in the middle. Since it was basically determined that Mr. Zero was confronting Cassia, why didn't Mr. Zero give any feedback? Even if it was just a little bit, this would at least save them from baseless accusations.
Random guesses.
Foster also mentioned that he has never seen a flare explode in mid-air. Another important piece of information is that after the smoke appears, Zero's communicator can no longer be connected. It is not known whether it has been physically damaged.
Lost.
Information is exchanged more frequently as the teams on the left and right continue to approach the middle.
At this time, Sawyer glanced at the sky behind him. On the other side separated by the tree canopy, the dragon knight Hai Nuoyi was only a few kilometers away from them. Thinking of the dragon knight's support speed, Sawyer felt somewhat at ease.
The team continued to move forward, but it only lasted more than a minute. Sawyer knew that the team had traveled less than two thousand meters. At this moment, his communication suddenly exploded.
"Both of them are moving! Very fast, heading to the left, Captain Sawyer's place!" Foster looked a little excited.
"Sawya, how far have you advanced at this moment?" followed by Komishur's question.
"Captain Sawyer, retreat immediately. We have contacted Captain Sasir, and Miss Hainoi will immediately land on the ground to support you! Please wait for Tornos to arrive with the experimental subjects, and then go to support Zero together.
Sir!" Jeremy reminded him immediately, and after receiving Sawyer's answer, Mishull answered the question the next moment.
"A radius of five to eight thousand meters, this is the detection range that Cassia can use sound waves to conduct!" Kemishur whispered, full of solemnity in his joy, "Captain Sawyer, retreat immediately! Miss Hainoi
It will fall to the ground in about a minute and cut off the rear for you!"
