Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 350 349. It’s like swimming in a fish pond

After all, the mortal body has its limits. Even if the opponent is likely to pull out anti-armor weapons, Cypher is not afraid at all... After all, the machine he controls will even scare himself when it jumps.

Not to mention the others, they had already seen how Seifer jumped and sprinted, found the right angle, and drove that thing whose weight was difficult to calculate and was so heavy that it was frightening, almost taking off from the ground.

To put it in perspective, if it was me sitting inside, I would probably only be able to describe myself as a 'lump'. However, the guy driving this real machine doesn't feel weak at all!
So when the toy-like pistol of Sever was locked on them, the support personnel on the platform were only slightly stunned before turning around and running away without even bothering to pick up their weapons.

Of course I can’t die, but the pain is real!

The support forces on the platform were cleared out instantly, and the pressure on the car was also relieved. At the same time, Seifer's threat scan swept across the car body and found that there were still dozens of bombs that had not been dismantled.

No, sister, what kind of thoughts and beliefs do you have that you would load this car with bombs before it even leaves? Do you feel that your life is not satisfactory?

Not sure how to comment on this, Seifer thought for a few seconds and decided to leave it to Xiaoxia.

Although she couldn't laugh, and because the perspective was always on a moving train, she felt a little nauseous.

The remaining three machines were somewhat timid, and when the train started again, Cypher simply ignored them and followed the train, acting as an excellent personal guard.

Moving forward, Xiaoxia finally found the difference between the real bombs and the bombs exclusive to the Academy City. The speed of mine clearance and the sound of her retching increased at the same time, so much so that Seifer asked her to leave only the front section of the car.

To be honest, the remaining car body is not particularly useful. At most, it can provide some auxiliary power components... However, Xiaoxia emphasized that the entire car is important.

Then let her take it apart slowly.

The nozzle of the machine kept adjusting its posture. If someone else sat inside, without a cage or more advanced modifications, they would probably vomit due to this level of maneuvering.

But for Cypher, it was just a normal movement... He fired bursts of shots from his pistol, causing the machines that emerged from the building complex and tried to attack from the flank to stagger.

Then, without looking back, he fired the rocket pod on his shoulder, and rockets swarmed out, heading directly towards the other side of the machine that was preparing to play a pincer attack.

The machines piloted by the two students were beaten and fled in panic, but the last one could no longer hold back and poured all its power into the thrusters, rushing towards Cypher at an unstoppable speed.

Even if you can't defeat your opponent, you should at least cause him some damage!

As he rushed forward, Cipher was also retreating at high speed. The distance between the two sides was slowly shortening, and then... then the opponent suddenly stopped at a distance of about three camera positions away from Cipher.

The propulsion system has run out of steam and even overheated, leaving the machine unable to propel itself any further and only able to move slowly. Logically, Cypher should have attacked immediately, covering it with fire while maintaining a steady retreat, right?

Then Cypher suddenly turned back and moved closer. In order to close the distance quickly, he even suddenly increased the pressure of the nozzle. The changes in the movement of the body were like skipping frames, and the opponent didn't even have time to react.

The violent explosion pushed the spike forward. This weapon, which had already pierced through many aircraft bodies and even some core key components, once again achieved miraculous success.

Even the student in the cockpit classroom could see with his own eyes an unstoppable long nail piercing through the cockpit and entering from his side. The fear of death made him afraid to look at the cockpit for at least a week.

Unaware that he had already caused psychological damage to someone, Cypher retracted his spikes and caught up with the train while contacting Laika: "So strictly speaking, if it weren't for these bombs..."

"Can I finish work faster?"

"Well, no. Red Crossbow. The personnel structure on the train is quite complicated right now. The Yorozuya that you belong to is fighting with the train patrol team, and is also fighting with the Student Union of Ordovician College." How should I put it, it's all my own fault.

"Then, at the front of the train, the girls' college's disciplinary committee was battling the train patrol."

Cypher nearly drove the machine onto the train tracks. He glanced suspiciously at the train again, confirming the number of people still able to move. "How did they get involved?"

"The reason is unknown, but they are still in the car. Please proceed with caution."

If there were hostages, all aspects would become passive. Seifer hesitated for a while and decided to contact Ichika first.

After dialing the special code, Ichika and her juniors were dismantling chairs to use as barricades. Suddenly, a call came in, so she turned around and took out the communicator to receive the message.

Behind her, three juniors stood behind the barricade without any tactical ideas, firing their sniper rifles continuously, and even could hardly hold the guns down because of the heavy recoil.

"Hello, who is this?"

"It's me, Red Arrow. Are you on this train too?"

"Circular Train... Really? So that machine outside the window is the one you're piloting...?"

"Well, I'm a little embarrassed to involve you, but we can discuss the details after we're done fighting. How are you doing now?"

As soon as Ichika turned around, she saw that the younger generations were unable to raise their heads due to the overwhelming firepower. There was even one... oh, one of them sat down on the ground because of continuous firing while standing.

He also dodged the grenades fired by the other side.

They cried pitifully and rushed to a safe place. The barricade that had just been erected collapsed in an instant, so much so that Ichika really didn't know what expression to make.

"Uh... not very good but, may I ask why you would do such a dangerous thing?"

"It's related to the case I'm investigating, but since you're in danger, leave the next stop to me."

Cypher hung up the call after saying this. At the same time, Ichika immediately supported her juniors and knocked down all the train patrols that tried to rush in through the gate at the connection.

The younger generations hid behind the safe protection and clapped their hands, so that the pressure in Ichika's heart did not decrease at all, and she only felt more tired.

I was just visiting another school to study, why did I encounter something like this?
After the train arrived at the platform, not many people got on the train this time - everyone knew that the situation of this train was very bad, so they all rationally chose to wait for the next train.

As for the train patrol… Since Seifer also stopped with the train, the students thought for a moment, fired three shots into the air, then dropped their weapons and ran away.

Firing a gun is enough to justify the money given by the student union. There is no need to sacrifice your own vacation!
Seeing that they were so sensible, Seifer set up a lock inside the body, opened the hatch, and jumped directly into the platform. Then he swiftly grabbed the reserved interface outside the train for maintenance, turned over and jumped directly into the carriage.

The sound of the landing startled Ichika and the others who were setting up defenses in the carriage and taking a break during the car stop. They immediately turned their guns around and became even more confused when they found out it was Seifer.

That machine was so useful, but they gave it up and ran to the car. Isn't that voluntarily giving up powerful weapons to fill the line?
"I'll explain later. How many people are in the car ahead?"
