Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 429 428. It's like driving a tin can into a bunker
Tien excitedly fired all the special rockets that he had collected recently by relying on his popularity and face, and instantly covered the entire combat area with a bright light.

In an instant, there was a rustling sound in Sefer's communication channel. This thing is a double-edged sword. Everyone will suffer the moment it is used.

But it's okay on Sefer's side. His external communications were originally prepared for the purpose of controlling the situation... Now that the mobile base has arrived, what communication is still needed?

He immediately turned the machine around and moved to the side. The machines that were chasing him advanced silently. As a result, as soon as the target disappeared, he saw the thing that was lying across the street, with its main gun exposed on the entire side and even the front of the vehicle.

The not-so-attractive desert paint job, strange logos and the text "Navigator" let them know that this is a small mobile base.

But there are also gaps between small mobile bases.

Just as those machines were about to avoid the secondary gun fire channel and the main gun's aiming, the secondary gun window on the side of the vehicle body suddenly opened.

If there was communication now, Seifer should have seen that there were more than just his crew members in the car.

There was also Ichika who was holding an intercom in the main control room, transmitting the voice to every combat deck.

"Get ready, get into range, aim at your enemy, and pull the trigger!"

Half of the automatic fire control is on the other side of the vehicle body. The firepower points on this side must be only two scattered 76mm guns and some mounted machine guns.

According to Seifer's estimation, only a few artillery positions would be firing. He had to move aside and disrupt the enemy, then wait for the main guns to open fire and take advantage of any missed opportunities.

But in reality, Ichika had brought all the younger members of the committee here, and all the firing points were manned—even though they weren't good at fighting, they had no problem shooting at moving targets.

In an instant, one side of this device, developed by the Phantom Mist Group and with firepower far exceeding that of an ordinary small mobile base, was illuminated by light.

The gunfire was so dense that it made Sefer's scalp numb. The pursuing machines did not expect such firepower coverage.

Most of the machines began to slow down the moment the electromagnetic shield was attacked, using various maneuvers to retreat. One machine, perhaps due to a sudden loss of control and the poor performance of its wetware, was...

It leaped a few times and continued to charge towards the vehicle. The intense firepower instantly concentrated, and the vehicle's defenses were instantly overloaded. Then came the fragile arms, head, and tiny legs...

During the sprint, he was beaten into pieces with only his torso remaining. Finally, he rolled on the ground a few times, slowly gushing out red energy.

"I hope this guy can be recovered later..." Cypher muttered softly, and continued to drive the machine to take the initiative, rushing directly towards a machine that was left alone due to dispersion.

The saturation attack in the fire channel was very effective, and the younger generations were encouraged and immediately aimed and pulled the trigger more diligently.

At the same time, the mobile base began to move again... In the communication shielding area, it was like a turtle with the thickest armor, but at the same time it could penetrate a large part of the armor.

Given this firepower disparity, would those machines retreat? Or would they leave the no-communication zone and wait for communication from above before fighting again?

The answer is that they don't know, so they follow the requirements of combat training, first avoiding superior firepower, and then capturing the main target... that is, the strange machine that must be destroyed as the target.

So in the next few minutes, Seifer used the complex urban terrain of the Academy City and the map he was familiar with to kill all these machines under his feet in various postures and angles.

When the distance is almost right, use siege artillery to attack. After breaking the defense or even part of the body, use the pistol to destroy the weak connection points of the opponent's weapons.

Then a long nail went up and blew away the engine and the radiator together.

If the distance is close, use grenades to overload it, and then use long nails directly... I have to say that this thing is about great force to create miracles, and anything can be blasted with one needle.

With external communications down, the number of enemies still active in front of them dwindled. One unit even circled around to the other side of the mobile base, attempting to attack from the side where the firepower might be weaker, but was immediately met with an equally intense barrage of fire.

Then only the core was not penetrated, and the rest of the parts turned into waste garbage and fell to the ground.

Almost in an instant, the mobile base and Cypher turned all the attacking machines into meaningless waste.

Inside the machine, Miss Nana tried to express her excitement about the battle with her body, but found that she was completely unable to move, so she turned to speaking.

"So powerful! My eyes are dazzled! Just a few bangs and he wiped out all those strange enemies... If that's the case, there won't be any enemies to be afraid of!"

Don't be happy too soon, because the company may have other tricks up its sleeve.

This is true even if they may be, or are probably, preparing for a desperate escape with retreat as the main focus.

Who knows if this entertainment company really has some technology that can sink the city at some point in the future?
Now Seifer could only talk to Miss Nana, so after confirming that no more enemies were rushing in from the south gate entrance, he returned to the mobile base.

A lot of pistol bullets have just been used up, and the shoulder-mounted main gun has also been consumed. I will quickly replenish the ammunition in the hangar first.

As soon as I entered, I saw Wei Erwei looking distressed.

But she was still quick and decisive... directing several juniors to load the ammunition resources into the fully automatic loader, and quickly loading it through the slide rails and lift.

Once inside the car, communication returned to normal: "How... did you two meet each other?"

Weiwei yawned loudly. "Someone brought them in the car. What did Tien say? Anyway, more people mean more things can be done..."

Could that 'someone' be Ichika?

Switching to the internal communication and confirming the list of people in the car, Seifer found Ichika among a large number of juniors with very similar names.

"Ichika, you brought so many juniors to the car, aren't you afraid that the car will be destroyed by something?"

After a few seconds, Ichika replied, "I'm sorry for not informing you in advance, Sensei... but this was our judgment."

She explained, "All weapons usable inside the academy are now unusable. Your mobile base is the only thing we have left to protect this place."

"And most importantly, compared to most people who now have to find ways to avoid threats, having weapons to fight back also gives us the courage to face danger!"

That's true. After all, I won't be panicking if I have a gun in my hand. Seifer nodded slightly, confirmed that the ammunition was loaded, and then heard the communication outside become clearer from noisy.

First came Laika's voice: "Red Crossbow! Can you hear me? Red Crossbow, great! Leave the signal blockage area... More units are gathering at the gap in the south gate."

"I'll go."

"Red Crossbow, the enemy at the South Gate is just a cover for cramming tactics. The real danger lies with the stabilization device. They've already seized the control system. If we don't stop them..."

Sever paused before continuing, "Then I'll go right away. We'll use the mobile base as a firing point at the south gate."

What are the people in the company doing? Why have they taken over the control devices?
