Chapter 53 Why Did You Come Out?

Although I have never seen a Titan Soldier, and I don’t know what this thing looks like when it attacks, the moment the flat x-shaped blue turned red, the first thing I thought of was the attack reaction. The reason for this judgment is considered from three directions. The first is pure feeling. Blue represents tranquility, which is the normal mode, while red is more passionate and passionate. Therefore, compared to blue light, red is generally a very violent and exciting state, and attack mode means violence. As for the second point, this is mainly summarized from the movies and animations I have watched before, because in those film and television works involving robots, as long as the robot's eyes turn red, it is likely to attack. Although "Zero" is not a movie or animation, it is a game and a cultural work woven by a group of designers, so normally the setting should not deviate from conventional habits.

In addition to the above two points, there is one last point, which is real experience. Unlike most players, I am the core of the Artificial God Project and the eldest son of the Longyuan Group. I have actually seen combat robots, and the eyepieces of real combat robots will indeed turn red before attacking. This phenomenon is not beautiful, but there are two kinds of one. First, when the robot enters attack mode, the eyepiece turns red, which is equivalent to turning on the warning light. The purpose is to tell all nearby personnel that it is now in attack mode and may launch an attack at any time. If the eyepiece is not red, it means that the robot is currently in attack mode. The weapon system is in a locked state, which is equivalent to activating the safety device. It means you can rest assured. As for the second reason, this is mainly due to the need for laser sighting.

Before attacking, the combat robot needs to illuminate the target with an active infrared emitter for target confirmation, and then needs to illuminate it with multiple weak laser beams for the purpose of ranging and continuous locking. Both of these are things that must be done before an attack, but the infrared searchlights and red lasers do not actually emit pure light outside the visible light band. Their extended spectrum will include the red band of visible light, so as long as these systems Once activated, the eyepiece will naturally turn red.

Based on the above three understandings, the robot's eyes turning red almost always represents a precursor to an attack, and although this giant soldier should be called a constructed creature according to the settings in the game. But this thing looks more like a robot. So when I saw this thing's eyes suddenly turned red, of course I immediately thought that this thing was going to attack, and in fact my guess was absolutely correct.

Just as the shouts came out from my side, the giant soldier's eyepiece suddenly began to emit dazzling bright lights from the four corners of the x. Then the four strong light photoelectrics quickly move toward the center point of x. And eventually merged into a huge red flare at this central point. About tenth of a second later. The red flare seemed to suddenly dim a little, but at the same time a beam of red light suddenly shot out from the center of this guy's eyepiece.

Because I was aware of it before, everyone responded very quickly. It rushed out in all directions almost like lightning, but the place where we were just standing was suddenly blown away with a bang. Even if we jumped far away, we still couldn't completely avoid the power of this thing. The huge shock wave blew us all away, and it felt like an atomic bomb exploded behind us.

After the huge and terrifying explosion passed, we all turned around, only to see that the place on the ground where we had just stood had turned into a brand new pit, and there was a large amount of magma at the bottom of the pit that was steaming. According to the power of this thing just now, if it hits directly, there are probably not many of us here who can really withstand the attack of this thing.

"Damn it, isn't this thing too powerful?"

"Stop talking nonsense and dismantle it quickly!" Seeing that Zhenhong still had time to complain, I shouted directly and ran towards the top of the mountain first. In the past, we discussed countermeasures with everyone because we sealed the boss in the temple, and it was entirely up to us when to fight him, but it is different now. This temple turns out to be the boss, and it's not that it can't be moved, it's just that it was too lazy to move before. Now that everyone has come out, if we stop to discuss countermeasures, wouldn't it be courting death? Therefore, we cannot stop at all, we can only fight first and then talk.

Speaking of which, although this thing is so big, it is an advantage, but turning it over is not a disadvantage. Just like elephants are not afraid of lions but are afraid of mice. Once they get too big, it will be quite difficult to deal with small things. The size of this giant divine soldier is absolutely beyond imagination, as big as a mountain. When we stand in front of it, it is not as high as the instep of this guy. For such a big thing, we are like a mouse to it.

Of course, this does not mean that large creatures are incapable of killing small creatures. The elephant is afraid of mice just because it is afraid of mice getting into its trunk. If it is really hit, the elephant will still crush the mouse when it steps down.

The only way we can deal with the Titan Soldier now is that we can rely on the body's high flexibility to prevent being hit. But once hit, with this guy's attack power, it will probably be an instant kill. We don't have any chance to fight with this. The ability to compete with others.

Realizing that we were actually running up the mountain, the giant soldier did not continue to attack. Instead, he suddenly looked up at the sky, then made fists with both hands on his waist and made a movement that was a bit like the horse stance in martial arts training. The guy started squatting down and bending his legs, obviously accumulating strength.

When I saw this action, I suddenly felt like I had seen this scene before, but before I could remember it, the giant soldier demonstrated it to me. Just hearing a boom, a pair of huge metal wings suddenly unfolded from the back of the guy, and at the same time, the backpack-like thing on its back also stretched out, revealing four huge thrusters. Accompanied by an increasingly louder sound of engine starting, four thick flames were gradually sprayed out from the rear ends of the four jet thrusters, and the laminated deflectors of the flame nozzles were slowly closing, gradually gathering the flames into a bundle. shape.

"Holy shit!" When I saw this situation, how could I not know what this thing was going to do? Quickly turn around and run back. Then I hugged Rose and pushed her down. I squatted down and stretched out my wings to wrap the two of us. At the same time, Eternity was turned over by me and inserted directly into the ground to form a huge fixator.

While I was completing the action, my demon pets were also moving closer to each other and using their respective abilities to fix themselves to the ground. However, the nearby Kirin warriors and death guards were completely helpless because they were too numerous. , we can only let them try their best to find a place to hide, and survive as long as they can!

In fact, my guess is quite accurate. Just after we made preparations here, the four thrusters behind the giant soldier over there made a deafening roar at the same time, and accompanied by this roar. Two haloes appeared at each of the four nozzles behind the thing. This is actually an aperture formed by the distortion of light caused by the high-speed jet in the jet. As the thruster further increases its output, those apertures even tend to be gradually blown away from the jet nozzle.

Having said all this, it actually lasted less than five seconds, and the jet behind the giant soldier suddenly accelerated to its limit. Then he kicked the ground suddenly. That huge body rushed into the sky with a terrifying air current. The mountain below seemed to have been hit by an atomic bomb. A huge shock wave swept through the entire mountain like lightning, and then rushed down the hillside to our location. The villages around us were like paper models in front of a typhoon, which were completely blown into pieces of wood flying in the sky in an instant. That terrifying power is simply not something ordinary people can resist.

The shock wave raged on the ground for seven or eight seconds before it completely stopped. By the time I spread my wings and released Rose and me, the surroundings had completely changed. Not only did a large piece of the mountain that was originally full of tree spirits collapse due to the departure of the giant soldiers, but more importantly, not a single tree spirit was left on the mountain. This has completely turned into a barren mountain, with not even a hair left.

Such a terrifying impact is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

As I put away my defenses, Lucky, Plague, Xiaosan and the other dragons around us all folded their wings, and under their wings, in addition to my magic pet, they protected Ke Listina and others, and even many Death Guards and Kirin Warriors were protected together, but compared to the loss of those Death Guards and Kirin Warriors, what was protected was just a drop in the bucket. .

This terrifying shock wave is not an attack from the opponent, but a chain reaction when someone takes off. But something like this almost wiped out all my Death Guards and Kirin Warriors. The combat power of this giant god soldier The horror is evident.

"Holy shit, where's that thing?" After Zhenhong stepped out from under the dragon wings, she started to look around, but she couldn't see that thing at all.

Christina looked at the sky and around in confusion, then frowned and said, "Isn't this place surrounded by a closed environment on all sides? If that thing can't leave the area around the mountain, it can only fly upward. But how high does it have to fly so big that we can’t see it?”

At this time, Rose closed her eyes and did some mental calculations, and then said: "With the size of that thing, even if it enters geosynchronous orbit, we should be able to see a rough outline with our eyesight."

"Isn't this too exaggerated? Can that thing fly out of the atmosphere?" Zhenhong said in surprise.

Christina interrupted Zhenhong and said: "Here's the problem. Let's not talk about how high that thing can fly. Even if it can really fly to the moon, the question is, is there space here? "

A normal person would be completely guilty of asking such a question in normal mode, but under the current circumstances, it is very reasonable for Christina to ask such a question. Let's think about it briefly. This mission map is just a mountain, plus a circle of villages at the bottom of the mountain and the villages extending out for tens of meters. Any place further away is completely inaccessible. It is blocked by an invisible wall and cannot be reached at all.

According to this situation, the surface area of ​​the mission space we are currently in is actually a circular area with a radius of no more than thirteen kilometers. If the surface area of ​​the mission space is only this large, then it can have How high?

In a mission where most combatants operate on the ground, creating space upwards is completely pointless. After all, no matter how powerful the game system is. Processing this extra space of data also requires a certain amount of calculation. Therefore, the system will definitely not set this kind of unused map. Since the system can even add an invisible wall on the ground to restrict the activity area, why can't it also set up such a wall in the sky? Players generally don’t fly that high anyway, right?

According to this idea, the area we are in should probably have a fixed size. In other words, although the blue sky above our heads seems to be very high, it is actually an illusion. There must be a layer of isolation wall above to block us. Let fly too high.

However, the current situation is that the huge giant god weapon soared into the sky. Then it disappeared. It was like the heavy rain situation before. It's easy to understand that it was hiding in the clouds, but now the rain has stopped and the sky has become extremely clear. In this state, the giant soldier has disappeared. How high do you have to fly to do this? And according to the previous analysis. That thing should have hit the defensive wall long ago, right?

"The mission space is limited. That thing should not be out of sight within the space. But the fact now is that the thing is missing." Rose analyzed the situation in front of her and said: "According to the principle that existence is reasonable, since the thing is missing , then there must be a reasonable explanation. Reverse inference. If the giant god soldier is missing, then there are only two possibilities. First, the thing is too far away from us, so we cannot see it, and second, it is invisible. "

"Invisible?" After hearing this, I turned around and shouted: "Emenis!"

Amynis also heard our conversation, so she immediately stood up and looked at the sky, then shook her head at me and said: "That thing is not here, it is really not here."

Rose immediately said after hearing the report: "If that thing is really not there, it means that it flew out of our sight. And if this is the case, there are two possibilities. First, this mission world is really It is very high, allowing the giant soldier to fly up. Secondly, this place is really shielded by a barrier, but the giant soldier has a way to penetrate the defensive wall and reach other places."

Rose's analysis is of course very reasonable, but we don't know what to do now. Even if that thing really rockets into space, can we still bring it down? Let alone now, even in the normal space outside, we actually don't have such ability.

Although the flying bird is very fast, it does not have the ability to bring its own oxidizer. It needs to inhale air and the special biogas it produces to burn in the combustion chamber, and then produce a jet propulsion effect. This mode is a typical common mode for aircraft in the atmosphere, because the oxidizer itself is also very heavy, and the atmosphere is full of air. Even at high altitudes, it is just a little thinner, but not completely absent. Therefore, there is no need to bring your own oxidizer. However, if you want to fly out of the atmosphere, an oxidizer becomes necessary, because after leaving the atmosphere, no, because it is about to leave the atmosphere, the oxygen content in the surrounding air has dropped to a very low level. state, it is impossible to ignite the combustion chamber in this mode, so once the bird reaches that altitude, the propeller will gradually lose power, and eventually the propulsion force will be reduced to the same as the earth's gravity, so no matter how hard it is, it will no longer If it rises, it is considered to have reached the ceiling.

The bird can't fly up, and my other magic pets can't go up, so even if the giant god soldier is really on top, we can only watch it from below. Unless it wants to come down, we won't take it at all. No idea.

"What can we do now?" Zhenhong looked at Christina and Rose and asked.

Christina thought for a while and looked at Rose and asked: "Rose, what do you think if we test the environment above?"

Rose was a little confused when she heard this proposal, but she quickly came to her senses. "Do you think the sky is a disguise?"

Christina nodded without denying: "Think about the size of the giant soldier, and then think about the size of this mission space. Does it feel like there is a person in a large elevator? As long as there is Several Titan Soldiers holding hands can even touch the separation walls on both sides of this space at the same time. Such a large space is definitely not a combat attack for the Titan Soldiers."

"Do you suspect this is just a storage room?" I now understand what Christina meant.

Zhenhong said on the side: "But why are there so many ghosts in the storage room?"

"I don't know this, but I know that the giant soldier has probably crawled to the upper level. Anyway, we can't see it again here."

Although what Christina said is just a guess on her part, but now that nothing is certain, we can only verify it first. After all, if we don’t do this, we don’t even know what we are going to do. .

It was easy to find the boss, but as soon as this guy appeared, he gave us a powerful attack, then turned around and ran away without giving us a chance to fight. Now that even the boss is gone, what are we going to fight?

Now that this is the case, we have no choice but to do what Christina said. Rose actually agreed with Christina's idea, so we quickly began a search operation. certainly. This operation is not just about searching the sky. More still is to search the ground and surrounding walls of this mission world.

If the giant soldier can get out from the separation wall at the top, it only means that any separation wall here can be passed through by him. In this case, of course we can't just search the sky. As for the issue on the ground, this is mainly to see if all the Japanese players chasing in are dead.

The shock wave generated when the giant soldier took off just now was quite huge. My Death Guards and Kirin Warriors were almost completely wiped out. And my demon pet and I are both alive and well. But we all suffered varying degrees of blood loss. Only the Demon Pets and Christina who were protected by us were truly unscathed, because they did not need to bear the shock wave themselves. So. Inferring from this, since even my magic pet and I will suffer heavy losses if we bear this shock wave, can those Japanese players easily resist? Therefore, it is very necessary for us to check whether all the players are really wiped out tomorrow. If they are really wiped out, we can let the Sakura Rain Divine Hina and the Blazing Dragon Princess who are hiding on the other side of the mountain come over together. After all, the two of them are also powerful in combat. It is really a waste that they dare not use them now because they are afraid of being exposed.

The search went quickly, but was far less successful than expected. I personally checked the sky with a few demon pets, and sure enough, you can find the separation wall by flying up a little distance, just like on the ground. You can see the situation on that side through the separation wall, but you can only see it. It's hard to get through, and those may even be just projections.

Although we found the expected top of the sky, we searched it for a long time but could not find any gaps or passages. This was mainly because according to our speculation, the isolation wall was broken through, and the hole was There will be no obvious traces, because the dome itself is completely invisible, and if a hole appears on an invisible object, then the hole is probably also invisible. In this case, it is really not easy to find the entrance of the cave.

In such a situation, we here can only use more patience to find it slowly, but the ground search team on the other side confirmed the fact that all Japanese players died before we did.

There are quite a lot of Japanese players entering here. Apart from the ones we killed before, we didn't actually kill many Japanese players when the Titan Soldier took off just now. Although they are not as powerful as Christina and I, they are players. After all, they cannot be as strong as my Death Guards and Kirin Warriors. Therefore, the heavy losses of the Death Guards and Kirin Warriors does not mean that Japanese players can also bear them. I can't stand such an attack. However, bear it and bear it, even Lucky and I have been hurt to varying degrees by such an impact, and those Japanese players are even less likely to be immune. Therefore, when our search team went out to search, they found some players who were seriously injured and fell to the ground unable to get up. Under such circumstances, of course, the people on our side cannot be lenient and directly apply wounds to these wounded people, leaving them completely dead.

As the inspection of the sky part failed, and the last Japanese players on the ground had been killed, Sakura Rain God Hina and Blazing Dragon Princess finally successfully joined us.

When they saw Yingyu Shenqing and Blazing Dragon Princess coming over, Li Bing and the other surviving guild players had very strange looks in their eyes. They all knew that Matsu Masa and the others had infiltrated Japanese players to serve as high-level spies, but. Unlike the real core members like us, Li Bing and several other high-level players in the guilds have good status in the guilds, but they are only combat players. That is to say, the main focus is on combat. Players like this are the most important personnel in each guild, because they determine the combat effectiveness of the guild. However, apart from being able to fight, these people actually don't know much about politics or conspiracy. Just because they can fight, it doesn't mean that they are also good at thinking.

It is precisely because these people have a high status in the guild, but are not good at it, or have little interest in guild leadership. So these players usually don't know this super secret in the guild. The reason why this group of people know now is because during the last meeting, Matsumasa congratulated them on the news that they were spies for our guild. That's why they were lucky enough to know the news. However, people's thoughts are sometimes not so easy to change. The enemy who had been fighting life and death before was suddenly told that they were one of their own. In this case, the most they could do was to stop being hostile to the opponent. But you want them to greet you warmly like old friends. That's really a bit overwhelming.

Although these players have weird expressions. But Ying Yu Shen Hina and Blazing Dragon Princess didn't pay attention to this thing. After returning to our side, they both looked at me and then asked: "Boss, where did the huge robot go? ?”

Because Yingyu Shenqing and Blazing Dragon Princess were not here when we discussed the issue of the Giant God Soldier before, so neither of them knew much about it. When they saw us, they would naturally ask about it.

After hearing the two people's inquiries, Christina took the initiative to go up and explain it to them. What surprised us was that after hearing this, Ying Yu Shen Hina actually said excitedly: "Tell me earlier! I have a way! "

"What can you do?" I looked at Ying Yu Shen Hina in surprise and asked.

Ying Yu Shen Hina nodded and said: "Of course, I won't talk nonsense. Just wait a moment, I will let you know where that guy went right away."

Although we believe that Sakura Rain God Hina will not joke with us about this kind of thing, we still looked at Sakura Rain God Hina curiously and waited to see how she would find the missing Titan Soldier that many of us here have not found.

Under everyone's gaze, Ying Yu Shen Hina quickly ran to the top of the mountain, and then everyone followed. She first looked at the big hole left when the Titan Soldier left just now, and then started to cast spells, but before that she asked us for a few bottles of magic potion that could be used here to replenish a lot of magic power. Obviously this skill The requirements for magic power may be high.

After the spell was completed, Yingyu Shenqing didn't do anything earth-shattering, she just released a large amount of sparkling powder from her hand. These powders look like luminous crystal dust floating in the air, and they are constantly shining with strong and weak light. It feels quite beautiful.

After releasing these crystal dust, Yingyu God Hina no longer cares about these things, so we can be sure that the spell casting is over, but it seems that those things do not indicate the whereabouts of the giant god soldiers, so we can only watch there. Just hanging on. However, in the end, Zhen Hong couldn't hold it back and ran to ask Ying Yu Shen Hina how she found the Giant God Soldier.

Sakura Rain God Hina, who has completed the spell, actually has nothing to do now, so she will explain to us. "Actually, this is a little magic I accidentally learned from a Japanese female player. She likes to use this magic on herself when flying, because it will leave a long flash of light behind her during the flight. Belt, it looks very beautiful.”

"You mean the function of this magic is to be beautiful?" Zhenhong asked in disbelief.

Ying Yu Shen Hina smiled and said: "It wasn't like that, but that's exactly how the other party used it, and I learned this magic because it's very beautiful, and it's quite fun."

"Then how can this magic find the whereabouts of the Titan Soldier?" Christina asked the key question.

Yingyu Shenchu ​​explained: "The search for the Titan Soldier relies on the side effects of this magic. The crystal dust released by this magic has a very special characteristic, that is, it will be attracted by strong energy, and they are very They are light and can be lifted up by the air, so when they are diffused into the air, they will naturally flow to energy-dense areas, and if a high-energy object passes through a certain area, it will leave a trail of energy in this place. The pipe that flows through. This trace is very weak and we cannot feel it. But this kind of crystal dust can move along this high-energy channel in the direction of the movement of the energy body."

"You mean, these dust-like things will float all the way along the opponent's movement route?" Zhenhong asked.

Yingyu Shenchu ​​nodded and said: "It's roughly like this, but there is a problem with these crystal dust, that is, unless it is actively removed after being used, it will always exist and will continue to absorb your magic power. Don't look at these things. Floating there is actually consuming my magic power."

"Holy crap, these things are floating so slowly, can your magic power hold them up?" Looking at the slowly moving powder in the sky, we were all very worried whether this thing would be able to use Sakura Rain God Hina's magic power before it found the entrance to the passage. Just hit the bottom first.

Not too bad. Although everyone was anxious and wanted to go up and blow behind the crystal dust to help them speed up. But we both know that if we really do that, there will be no benefit at all besides wasting more time, so in the end we can only worry about it. Fortunately, the thing finally found the exit, and the location of the exit was quite strange.

Those crystal dusts rise higher and higher in the sky. And we are worried that our energy fluctuations will affect the detection of those crystal dusts. So they didn't dare to get close. I could only send out a small flying pet to keep an eye on it. And according to the special magic we released on this demon pet, we all saw the crystal dust flying in the air and suddenly disappearing, which means there is a passage here. You can't see it when you go in.

After discovering the entrance, we all immediately took off and rushed forward, and then found the entrance directly through the location of the demon pet. This entrance is located near the point of contact between the ceiling of the mission space and the side wall, but it is actually located on the wall. In other words, it is placed sideways. We did not find this entrance at all when we checked the sky before. The inspectors on the ground only searched along the height of the wall and did not expect it to exist at this height. Entrance.

Now that we have discovered the entrance, of course we can't wait here. After a little arrangement of the order of entry, I was the first to rush out on a flying bird.

As soon as I entered this passage, I felt the surroundings suddenly darken, and then before I could react, I felt a sudden light in front of me, and then I saw a wall coming towards me.

"I'm..." With a loud bang, Feiniao and I didn't have time to brake and ran directly into the wall. Fortunately, the wall was not very thick, so we directly opened a hole in it, and then Fly out.

After coming out of that wall, we did not stabilize, but hit another wall before stopping. Fortunately, the impact was not strong now, so it was not bad. However, thinking of my companions behind me, I quickly stood up and tried to tear down the entire wall to facilitate the passage of people behind me, but as soon as I got up I noticed something was wrong.

"Huh...?" When I just got up, I suddenly felt that the power in my body became very powerful. This feeling was obviously not the feeling of being suppressed before. In other words, the suppressed state on my body now... disappeared ?

"Hey... get out of the way..."

Because I felt the change in my body, I wandered away for a moment. When I came back to my senses, I was already standing in the big hole in the wall that I crashed through, and at this time, Zhen Hong happened to be the second one to come out. Like me, she found me in front as soon as she came out, and she quickly shouted out.

Although I heard the sound, I couldn't get out of the way at this time. The two people directly collided into a ball and flew out of the room, and then smashed into the building opposite.

"Boss, what's wrong with you? What are you doing standing at the exit?" Zhenhong complained as soon as she got up.

I didn't answer her question, but asked: "Look at your own attributes."

Although Zhenhong was confused as to why I wanted her to see the attributes, she still looked at it and was stunned. "Huh? How did my attributes recover? Didn't it mean that the attributes in the entire buff mission will always be suppressed? Could it be that we...?"

Although Zhenhong never likes to use her brain, I have to say that her intuition is really accurate, because we are indeed coming out now, and how could I know this? Of course it’s because the system beeps! But...we didn't kill the final boss, so why was this mission suddenly completed? (To be continued...)
