Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 520 519. How does it feel to pour resources into the system without having to count the money?

There was only a slight breeze in the cold and dark night sky.

The flying board began to fall as its fuel ran out, and the missile launcher with several launch ports on its back had already been opened.

The first wave of missiles rushed into the sky, dragging flames as bright as the sun - although there were no clouds in this world.

The second round of missiles with rather strange-colored tail flames followed closely behind. They looked like a meteor passing through the sky, making people look at them curiously.

At least those who were setting up midway camps were very curious about how there could be meteors in the middle of the night... and meteors of different colors.

In the tense battlefield where someone could suddenly die at any minute or second, a machine that is obviously on tracks but runs faster than two feet is sprinting wildly within the range of firepower.

No one knew how it could accurately escape the range of the artillery shells, or how it could predict where the shells would land.

But it can be done.

It's impossible for Seifer to say that his threat scan can calculate the shooting parameters and then work back to the landing point, forming circular areas in front of his eyes, right?
People will think you are a hang dog.

However, in this world, and especially in such a dangerous battle, no one would understand if he was a little bit understated. They would just think that he was lucky and had good skills, and was able to avoid the artillery shells falling like rain.

The machine continued to advance, occasionally ejecting a piece of almost melted cooling fin from the cooling vent. The tracked machine bounced and sped across the rocky ground, successfully reaching the predetermined distance.

At the same time, he also entered the range of the enemy's close-in defense gun... This thing is not the same as artillery fire. If he suddenly exposes himself to this kind of firepower, the best outcome is to become wreckage on the ground.

"Red Crossbow... Cruise-mode missiles have entered the country, but there aren't enough... Wait, Red Crossbow, be careful, there are signs of a large mobile base!"

Aerial reconnaissance was of great help. Just seconds before Seifer was ready to aim the laser for terminal guidance, Ichika discovered a large vehicle that had already started moving further behind.

So the mercenary system...

Cypher switched to aiming mode and advanced without hesitation as the Navigator's shells arrived.

The engine was running at maximum efficiency. The clown behind was still chasing but was gradually losing its strength. It stopped in anger and transferred the engine energy to the sniper rifle in its hand.

Even at the risk of blowing up this gun, I must kill this damn mercenary here!

The idea was good, but his already overheated computing core might have forgotten one thing... This was a battlefield, not some regular 1v1 duel.

Cypher had been too lazy to bother with him because he was going to attack the enemy's mobile base. The mercenaries behind him were so happy.

Several rockets whizzed past, and the man turned around suddenly to see a group of machines rushing towards him.

Regardless of what happened later, the first thing that fell on his head was the navigator's artillery fire. Due to the specific calculation of the landing point, almost none of the four shells missed the target.

Not to mention those that hit the core of the vehicle, the weakest shot also broke the track of a vehicle, forcing it to move on one leg for an instant.

As for Cypher, his body suddenly lowered and got into a natural crack, avoiding the direct fire while once again avoiding the artillery pouring down from above his head.

——Then it suddenly jumped out from the end of the gap, and the laser burst out from the body instantly shone on a car body.

The car obviously didn't expect that this harmless aiming would be of any use... The laser suddenly dispersed and turned into three beams of light that scattered onto the three car bodies.

Those vehicles did not react at all for the time being, but just slowly turned their turrets, following the procedures and designs, preparing to use their main guns to teach the mercenary machines so close what it means to be human.

But before they could succeed, three meteors whizzed by, leaving them no time to react before directly striking the laser's irradiation area. A blindingly bright light suddenly erupted, then faded away.

The explosive high-temperature warhead with the temperature of the sun's surface can easily melt the armor that can directly withstand 100mm or even 120mm caliber artillery.

The missile body instantly disappeared into the vehicle body and exploded in an instant, causing a chain reaction that caused all ignitable and explosive objects in the vehicle to explode.

The deafening explosions and the flames shooting into the sky illuminated the position, which was already filled with the roar of artillery fire and caused people to panic. After the vehicles rarely fell into a misfiring state, they moved forward even more violently.

It seems that the command unit behind the scenes finally realized that if these things were allowed to break through to the rear row, no matter how solid those large mobile strongholds were or how large their caliber was, they would be nothing more than large mobile garbage that would be destroyed in one shot.

So after a brief pause, from the reconnaissance perspective, the large mobile base in the rear began to slowly turn its vehicle body, and the huge heavy artillery continued to aim at the battlefield area, but was ready to retreat.

They wanted to run, but Sefer wasn't about to watch them.

The machine's tracks rolled forward, accelerating to sprint again when Laika suddenly connected: "Red Crossbow, your cooling fins are running low. Pay attention to your combat effectiveness."

"Once the cooling fins are exhausted, no matter how powerful this machine is, it will not function properly..."

We have been working on it all the time, and maintenance can only repair routine damage. Although the manufacturing process of heat sink fins is not complicated, the quantity is large.

In short, if you want to give it a try, you have to look at the actual situation.

"I understand, but don't worry. I won't do anything too strenuous, so I guarantee I won't overheat... well, in theory."

Everyone knew how reckless Cypher was when piloting a mecha, so Laika just shook her head helplessly - because while she was saying this, Cypher had already made three or two thrusts and dodged a series of close-in defense rockets.

A melted cooling fin popped out from the back of the machine with a 'grunt', and then gushed out hot air through the crowded and ruined defense line.

Countless machine gun bombardments passed behind him, but none of them could hit the aircraft. They could only watch in vain as he passed through the defense line and headed backwards.

The surging corporate mercenaries and the mobile bases that finally followed also began to fire and began to reap the rewards.

Sefer had only advanced a few kilometers when he received an unfamiliar signal.

"Hello again, Red Crossbow... You're quite impressive, able to lead the team here."

The communicator was not nearby, so Seifer scanned the area and suddenly adjusted his sailing attitude, easily avoiding the blast and the debris that was blown into the sky.

The large-caliber main gun hit the ground with great force.

"Are you... the former Red Crossbow? How come you have time to contact me again?"

The other party's voice sounded quite amused, but he still replied, "I was let out for some fresh air, so I'll naturally have time to talk to you. On the bright side, if we take out those large mobile bases, you only have two days left to go."

"But I have to warn you, there aren't many supplies on the way back, and the Pole doesn't look like a big deal."

Seifer really wanted to ask you why you were such a jerk, but considering that not everyone was willing to be treated like this, he kept silent and focused on moving forward.

Then he showed his laser irradiation equipment and said, "Are you going to watch me kill these things?"

The voice replied leisurely that was right, and that the worst punishment would be being thrown into the recycling bin, which was what she wanted, so she suggested that Cypher remember to destroy the large strongholds in order.

He even thoughtfully marked the order - what a scoundrel!
