Machine War: Starting from Gundam OO

Chapter 1772: Insidious Trap

The sudden appearance of the black hole made everyone panic for a moment. It was a black hole, one of the eternal unsolved mysteries of the universe. Not even light could escape its swallowing, and any existence swallowed would disappear without a trace.

Not to mention Guranson's [Anti-Destruction Engine], Retraction Cannon and the [Black Hole Engine] and Black Hole Cannon of the Fierce Bird EX, those are just the tip of the iceberg of the black hole. When a real black hole appears, it is beyond human power to contend with.

Fortunately, the fleet was retreating from the beginning and kept a relatively long distance from the black hole. It was not immediately affected by the suction force of the black hole and began to retreat when the black hole expanded.

But the MS troops were in some danger. Although they were not entangled with the deployed troops, they were in a relatively forward position. The MS troops at the front were attracted the moment the black hole appeared. Even if they wanted to escape at the highest power, they could only maintain their relative position without moving.

“【Re-write】.”

Yang Hui took action and first tried to rewrite the existence of the black hole and eliminate it directly, but Yang Hui found that he could not do it. [Re-write] reported an error. Yang Hui could only rewrite the positions of friendly MS within the influence range of the black hole and send them all to a safe place.

"Yang Hui, are you okay?" Graham and others were worried about Yang Hui's condition. Although he had been promoted to S-level and had fully mastered [Re-wrtie], he couldn't use it as he pleased. There were still consumptions. It was unknown how much it would cost to rewrite the positions of many machines on a large scale.

"It's okay, it's very easy." Yang Hui asked everyone not to worry, as this little consumption was nothing to him.

It’s just that the failure of the rewrite of the existence of the black hole... made him frown.

It's not just that the rewrite failed, but that when rewriting, it was found that the code was a bit complicated. Not only did it exist, it seemed to be connected to something and had linkage, so it couldn't be rewritten directly, so it failed.

In this case, Yang Hui could only rescue everyone to a safe place first, and then slowly observe the situation.

"Yang Hui, what should we do? Should we evacuate first?" Seeing that the black hole was getting bigger and bigger and there was no sign of stopping, Huang immediately contacted Yang Hui.

"The fleet will retreat to one place and keep a safe distance. I'll take a look and find something." While replying to the emperor, Yang Hui activated the [Zero Time Difference Calculation] to study and analyze the black hole's code.

"Don't be so stubborn, Yang Hui." When everyone heard that Yang Hui wanted to stay alone again, they immediately retorted. [Luna Division] and [Flag Abschneiden] grabbed the arms of [Dawn Erstellen (Creation)] and retreated together.

"No, I really found something..." Yang Hui was speechless. Didn't he really believe in himself?

"I don't believe it!"
On this issue, everyone's answer was the same. They absolutely did not believe that Yang Hui would stay behind alone to cover the retreat. This was the answer gained from countless experiences.

"Keep a relative extreme distance and let me take a look. Maybe it's a way to pass the level." Yang Hui knew that they would not let him stay, so he could only settle for the second best and maintain the extreme distance from the edge of the black hole's influence to analyze and study the black hole's code.

"found it!"

To others, it may be just a moment, but to Yang Hui it was a whole day. After countless calculations using the [zero time difference calculation], he finally found the problem. Just under the code of the black hole, there was another coded article hidden. It was very secretive and one had to go several layers deep along the code to see it.

And this coded article... is what Yang Hui really wants to find, and it is also what the Promise Legion has been looking for, the clue to pass the level!
The content of this coded article is that the bottom layer of this black hole is actually a space channel. Although it is not clear where it leads to, since it is a space channel, and it is a space channel that only appears after destroying all cosmic cities and destroying the cube, it is worth doubting whether it leads to the next level.

"Analysis completed... rewriting..."

Suddenly, the suction of the black hole disappeared, and only a rotating black hole remained in place, and the debris around it that had not been sucked in was not shattered again.

"Yang Hui, you did it?" The threat of the black hole had disappeared and it had stopped expanding. Everyone stopped retreating and asked Yang Hui what had happened. After all, he had been analyzing and rewriting the black hole.

"Well, there is no threat anymore." Yang Hui said to everyone, "This black hole is the door to the next level."

If we use the game's words to explain, this black hole, no, it should be said that the cube that appeared before is actually the BOSS guarding the gate, and the box they got from the space city is the necessary prop to unlock the BOSS guarding the gate. After collecting all of them, the BOSS guarding the gate will be summoned, and after destroying the BOSS guarding the gate, the door to the next level will be opened. However, this cube also left a hidden trap, which is the black hole that appeared after being destroyed. It is a real black hole. The code that Yang Hui saw shows that this black hole covers the gate. The moment the gate is opened, it will start and swallow up everything that wants to pass through this door. And the most hateful thing is that the black hole looks exactly like the door. If Yang Hui hadn't been able to see the essence of things through [Re-write], he would not have been able to discover it, and it would not have been possible to eliminate the threat of the black hole. He could only let it expand and spread, and eventually swallow up this universe.

"What a vicious and treacherous plot."

After listening to Yang Hui's explanation, everyone's expressions became very ugly. They originally thought that the biggest challenge of the first level was to find clues to pass the level, and preventing the sneak attack of the Temple of Slaughter would not be a big problem. As for those space cities and the huge fleets deployed, there was no threat at all. Unexpectedly,... the real killer move was left at the end, at the moment when they were most likely to relax their vigilance.

"If it weren't for Yang Hui, we would have all been wiped out." Rebir said with a serious face. The fleet was in a safe range when the black hole appeared, but without Yang Hui to stop it, the black hole would have continued to expand until it swallowed up the entire world, until the Promise Legion had nowhere to hide.

"Humph, what are you talking about playing games? This doesn't even give us a way to survive."

"The first level is so dangerous, then the next level..."

"Why not just flip the chessboard over? Whoever wants to play this game can play it!"

"Do you have any idea?"

"..."

Everyone's expression was very ugly. They cursed the [Game Knight] for its fraud and cunningness. They also didn't want to accept the other party's rules. It would be better to just set up their positions and have a good fight than being led by the other party. And...

What made them most angry was probably that the master of the Temple of Slaughter and the [Knights] were watching their every move through some means, as if they were watching a play.

But...is there any way to flip the chessboard?
No, I can’t lift it!

"What should we do next?" Everyone looked at Yang Hui. Even Rebil, Huang and others couldn't make up their minds for a moment. The good news was that the road to the next level had appeared and they could go to the second level. The bad news was that the game arranged by [Game Knight] was definitely not friendly, and there must be more dangerous traps waiting for them. The situation on the other side of the door was unclear. Should they go in or not?
"We must go to the second level." Yang Hui sighed and shook his head. Their goal in coming to this world was to defeat the Temple of Slaughter and eliminate the master of the Temple of Slaughter. Not to mention whether it was absolutely safe to stay in the first level, it would be meaningless to simply waste time.

"The current size of the black hole can accommodate a complete fleet, so I propose... the First Fleet takes the lead, and the fleets pass through in order, with Promith in the middle." Katie expressed her opinion.

"Let us do it." Fleet shook his head in objection, and asked Katie to give him the task of vanguard. "The Second Fleet has not carried out too many combat missions, so it is in relatively good condition. Besides, the Second Fleet also has me, Arthur and others, so it has a stronger ability to withstand pressure."

"In that case, Commander Fleet, this mission should be assigned to the Third Fleet..."

"All members of the Fourth Fleet are ready."

"The Fifth Fleet..."

For a while, all the fleet commanders started arguing over the mission of being the vanguard. This was quite rare. They were not arguing for the purpose of attacking, nor were they persuaded by any rational reasons. Instead, they just wanted to take the biggest risk themselves.

"Alright!" Yang Hui slammed the table to stop the quarrel. "The vanguard will be handed over to the Promis. Meanwhile, the Steel Dragon Squadron, the Black Gold, the Platinum, and the Drestriga will accompany them. Independent forces will carry out the vanguard mission. Independent forces have small targets, small numbers of people, and high-end combat power. They can deal with any emergency."

"But Yang Hui, you..."

"No buts! This is an order, the highest order from the commander-in-chief of the Promise Legion! It must be executed!"
