Chapter 59: The Siphon of Life
"Rest assured, everyone! This attack has long been expected by me, and the enemy has entered my urn! As long as you don't mess with yourself, there is no reason to lose this war! ā
"We have an army of thousands of machines! We have walls more than ten meters high and several meters thick! We have hundreds of surface-to-air missile launchers! We also have nearly 1,000 heavy mecha warriors created by me and newly developed by 'zero'! ā
Ling Qi said, pointing to the few large mechs that had just joined the team, which were more than five meters high, equivalent to two or three stories of buildings!
If you want to say that this mecha has absolutely no appearance, it rumbles when it walks, as if it wants to step on a hole in the earth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Hearing this, some of the confusion in the ranks immediately disappeared, and everything became orderly.
Even after coming to the outer city, the morale that was getting sluggish because of the rising mushroom clouds also recovered!
As more people joined the team, Ling Qi, who was protected by the mechanical warriors, had to improvise some declaration of improminence to boost morale!
The team, which was only three or four hundred people when it left the inner city, had more than tripled by this time, and this was not counting the members of the combined column who had been sent away before!
After realizing that this was a self-defense counterattack, each family more or less sent their own private soldiers, and some civilians who felt the "favor" of Lingqi spontaneously took up arms!
Even if it weren't for the previous massacres, the number of people in this team would definitely easily exceed three thousand, but at that level, I'm afraid that his mechanical legion wouldn't be able to suppress the possible riots!
Everything began to develop in the direction that Ling Qi hoped for, but he was not satisfied.
Outsiders couldn't see how anxious Ling Qi was with a smile on his face.
Every mushroom cloud that rises outside the city, every shaking of the ground and the roar of thunder, must represent the sacrifice of a large number of mechanical units!
That's the time they trade their lives for so that the enemy can't get past the mine! And this kind of thing should have been done by his integrated cannon fodder legion, or even the combined column!
The special cloak helped him a lot, although the sunlight still made Ling Qi's state fall to the bottom, at least not in a short period of time!
And the plug-in neural assistance system strapped to his arms and thighs transformed from exoskeleton technology also gives him a certain ability to continue fighting during the day, but unfortunately the traces of science and technology of this technology are too heavy.
Rumble!
When this huge team reached the newly built wall, the first missile finally landed on the wall!
A large number of metal fragments mixed with flesh and ashes were scattered, but fortunately, the sporadic screams did not weaken the legs of the civilians who had just mustered up the courage to clench their weapons!
"Come with me!"
Ling Qi gritted his teeth, and Shengsheng replaced the three words "give it to me" with words against his will.
A gentleman does not stand under the wall, if he has a choice, he would rather stay behind and command with a terrifying weapon, this kind of tactical missiles are flying in the sky on the battlefield, it is not a good place for bravery!
"Mecha Team! Defend the walls! ā
Ling Qi shouted loudly and commanded in battle, this primitive means of communication has an unparalleled advantage, that is, it is much more difficult to make it ineffective than cutting off the radio signal!
Rumble! Bang!
The first missile was just a primer, and before it reached the city wall, the city gate, which cost more than 20 tons of scrap iron casting, was directly blown out of one pit after another!
In the absence of flying equipment now, the role of the city wall has become as obvious as in ancient times, and if you don't consider the thing in the sky, Ling Qi is completely sure that it will take ten days and ten nights with those unknown enemies outside!
Dada!
Tongues of fire are spitting happily, someone is laughing, someone is crying!
As soon as he climbed up the wall from the humble staircase, before Ling Qi could look, a few bullets grazed his cheeks and hit several humanoid mechanical warriors around him, clanging!
"!"
Ling Qi's eyes were slightly red, and the crisis warning brought by high perception was basically invalid, because after standing at the head of the city, the places he could perceive were full of crises!
He rushed to the front in a few steps and looked out of the city, only to see metal wreckage, smoking craters everywhere, and of course, even more huge craters in the distance, which were obviously traces of a miniature nuclear bomb!
It seems that his behavior at Hoover Dam did annoy some people, and although the mini-bomb is not strictly prohibited, at least it is not far from the requirements of strategic weapons, but it will not be used in ordinary conventional warfare.
The NRC has been fighting with the Legion for so long, and I am afraid that the number of times this weapon of mass destruction has been used is only a handful.
Of course, Ling Qi had selectively ignored the gift he had the T-1 bring to Hoover Dam, but it was beyond the limits of conventional tactical weapons.
"What's that!"
Although Ling Qi's eyesight during the day was far worse than at night, he couldn't stand the military flag erected thousands of meters away by others.
The E character surrounded by twelve Venus, this sign made Ling Qi faintly feel familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere!
"It's the Enclave!"
"Damn it! It's the Enclave! ā
The exclamation that came out of nowhere made Ling Qi's heart chuckle, the Enclave is not terrible, what is terrible is the hearts of people that are about to disperse!
"Kill! Kill me! All volunteers! Follow the Mechanical Legion on the charge! The Enclave is notorious, and I don't want to be caught by them for human experiments, so I'll rush to it! Fight! ā
Ling Qi roared loudly, his words made those cold-hearted people wake up in an instant, the ferocity of the enemy seemed to have forced them to have no choice, the Enclave is most famous for his style of killing everything, compared to them, Ling Qi's so-called atrocities recently are just some pediatrics!
Ling Qi had always known what it meant to lead by example, he knew that it was impossible to ask those who were wise enough to take the initiative to charge, he didn't have that kind of appeal, or eloquence.
As his voice fell, a large number of armed robots began to fall outside the city with the help of cranes to conduct ground battles, and since the city gate had been blown up and deformed, it was basically impossible to open it normally.
More surface-to-air missile launchers began to roar, pushing back the line of fire that had been pressed under the city!
On the side of the city wall, which is more than ten meters high and three or four meters wide, there is a simple crane every 100 steps, which can transport things weighing less than two tons up and down.
Many of these cranes have been blown up, but most of them have been preserved under the heavy protection of the automatic sentries and the defenders of the city.
At first, some people were hesitant to issue the kind of order that was tantamount to suicide to Ling Qi.
But with batch after batch of mechanical legions into battle, and some elite fighters who operated small mechas, they went to the front line, and finally volunteers began to board the crane!
The medium-sized and heavy mechs on the city walls began to pour their firepower unbridled, causing the enemy infantry fighters who were already swarming like locusts to retreat!
The NRC's crowd tactics have finally failed, and these mechs may have great flaws in the face of the same elite units, but they can easily crush such a huge number and extremely weak enemy with a superior terrain to rely on!
A major counteroffensive often takes a good start, and no one wonders how long this level of firepower can last, and no one wonders why the most elite humanoid mechanical warriors have always held out at the top of the city!
"Rush!! fuck !! Those who dare not go up are all bad seeds!! ā
Another hot-blooded young man who rushed to the suspension shouted loudly, he probably didn't think about this wave of transportation at all, how to return to the city when he lost!
Ling Qi liked this kind of person, after he promised once again to let the mechanical soldiers rush to the front line, and the mechanical units on the battlefield did just that.
Eventually, some small and medium-sized organizations with extreme vigilance began to make a modest contribution to the war.
Woo!
The whimpering of the wind made the high-spirited Ling Qi feel a hundred thousand points of alarm, and before he could make a move, a surface-to-air automatic defense missile launcher more than ten meters away had already taken the lead in responding!
Rumble!!!
A large red cloud burst into the air, and the scorching wave of air lifted the hem of Ling Qi's clothes.
He looked at the violent explosion that happened about a few hundred meters away, and he was afraid, excited, and wanted to roar and laugh!
"Kill, !!"
I saw him leap into the air and land on a half-lowered suspension car.
Da-da-da-da! Rumble! Rumble!
The smell of gunsmoke intoxicated him, and the multi-barreled howitzer in his hand lived up to its name as a destroyer, reaping life wantonly!
His actions were like a signal, except for those mechs who were immobile and had been given death orders, almost all the volunteers who came spontaneously rushed to the new round of cranes!
Rumble! Rumble!
A large number of attacks seemed to be targeted around Ling Qi, but his seemingly wild rush was actually not a few hundred meters away from the city wall at all, this distance was still within the defense range of surface-to-air missiles, and there was almost no possibility that a large-range long-range lethal weapon would successfully fall on his head.
And as more lives are harvested, his movements seem to be getting faster and faster, and he even tears off the already tattered cloak on his body, and performs in the sun with a style that can only be found in the dark night!
Ghostly speed! The power of terror! Ignore the constitution of stray bullets!
Even if the ranged weapon harvests less than one-third of the melee slash that can be affected by the life siphon, and the effect of the area explosive killing lifeform is even lower, it can't stop his firepower is really fierce!
Others couldn't see it, but he could see with the naked eye that wisps of pale red weird energy were converging from all directions, surging into his body like an upside-down galaxy!
He didn't have time to read the skill description, and he could clearly realize that this was not just the effect that he should have harvested the number of lives with his own hands!
It was as if he had become something like a black hole, and all the dead or seriously injured around him, the flame of life that flickered like a candle was all flickering towards him like moths on the lamp!
At this moment, he seemed to have become immortal, and even if someone blew his head out, he felt that he could be resurrected in an instant!
"Kill !!"
At this moment, he stepped out of the "safe range" of rational cognition, he didn't know how many tactical missiles were aimed at him at the same time, and he didn't know that the PP boy on his arm automatically lit up, revealing the cartoon face full of consternation of Mr. Yes.
"Lynch! Come back...! ā
"Lynch! Hahaha! Why don't you call me such a fun thing!! ā
Shout! Shout!
With two specially made miniature high-explosive missiles exploding around him, more than a dozen NRC soldiers who took the opportunity to surround him became pulp, and a sassy steel heroic posture directly crossed a distance of hundreds of meters under the action of the leg rocket booster and jumped into the battlefield from the other side of the city wall!
A large amount of life breath poured into Ling Qi's body, but his consciousness that he was addicted to suddenly woke up.
"It's dangerous here, go!"
Before he could say anything, Veronica, who had cut into the battlefield, had already grabbed his arm and disappeared in place with a swoop!
A howling wind accompanied by a violent thunderclap resounded not far away, and another mushroom cloud destroyed the wreckage!
