Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 526 525. It’s like a fight to the death but you can talk big!

It was not a reckless charge. After assessing the battlefield, Seifer determined without hesitation that those flying ships were the breakthrough point.

The machine was advancing at high speed on the ground, with a melted cooling fin popping out from the cooling slot occasionally, and the machine was rapidly approaching the floating battleship amidst the dense artillery fire.

Even though the enemy's guns were aimed at him, Seifer was not afraid at all. He dodged the large-caliber artillery fire while taking off suddenly at the maximum distance despite the dense "ding-dong" sounds on the fuselage!

Although it is indeed difficult for a tracked body to fly for too long, but... it has been said that as long as there is enough power, even a building can fly in the sky.

Passing directly through the dense fire network, Cypher jumped onto the battleship. At the same time, the strange weapons on his shoulders called "electric needles" unfolded and began to charge like two telephone poles.

The huge tail end hummed, and golden lightning condensed on the "long needle" at the tip. After Seifer casually smashed a few firing points with his long jet, he aimed at the place on the battleship that looked most like a bridge.

——Although I don’t understand why such a completely unmanned thing still has a bridge, it doesn’t matter.

When the energy reached its limit, Cypher released the energy of the two shoulder-mounted weapons without hesitation... At the moment of launch, the body even paused for a moment.

Dazzling golden electric light filled the field of vision, and then quickly transformed into a shock wrapped in thunder and smashed towards the target. It took several seconds for the pierced bridge to begin to flow out dense electric current.

This feeling……

Cypher immediately leaped sideways, from the airship to the deck of another warship that was still firing at him.

The ship just now disintegrated directly in the huge metal twisting and dense internal explosions, turning into a ball of brilliant fireworks that projected metal fragments and molten flow in all directions.

A huge object fell from the sky and turned into a huge fire burning fiercely... no wait.

How could such a large ship explode after its bridge was penetrated?! Is this scientific?

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are indeed worthy of me, Red Crossbow. After a long period of reflection and many adjustments, I am now able to think calmly and even consider what exactly you are."

This floating battleship was quite large, and as soon as Cypher landed, he heard the sound of communication - at the same time as he landed, several bodies also rose from the ground.

The first machine was painted with gaudy colors, which were too flashy and even dizzying, but it didn't care and was even proud of it.

"Haven't you figured it out yet? Rather than risking a short, weak life, joining our side, fighting for the same goal, and enjoying it is the right path."

Cypher waited for the electric needle to cool down, then suddenly spoke, "For the same goal? I don't think so. Or maybe you should change the word, like... well, you feel like you're working towards this goal."

"What did you say?"

"Isn't it too windy to hear you? Can I say it again?"

Cypher responded without hesitation: "I say, when did you start to think that you were fighting for a cause?"

The former top leader of the entertainment company, who was driven away and entered the storm circle, and then turned around and became involved with the mercenary system, was actually stunned when he heard this question.

But it will be stunned, but the surrounding organisms will not.

Various types of machines rushed directly towards Cypher. All of these things were learning from independent mercenaries of A level or above. Not to mention their combat effectiveness, their equipment was really varied.

At long range, there were heavy bombardments, at medium range, there were also energy weapons bombardments, and even several machines eagerly displayed their particle generators, preparing for close combat. To be honest, the scene was quite terrifying, because Cypher had only one machine, and he had to face more than one formation - some nearby airborne warships also had enemy machines responding.

There were even a large number of enemies surrounding him... In this heavy encirclement, Seifer chose to face the enemy head-on without hesitation!

There is no need to ask questions or answer questions, because the enemy is right in front of you. Thinking only about how to save your life or how to escape will only put the other side in danger.

This machine has strong combat power. It can kill as many as it can before being completely destroyed!

Over there, dozens of machines were fighting in a group. Due to their completely different combat habits and tactical thinking, they were tripping each other up. The pressure on Cypher was unexpectedly not that intense.

Someone here, lost in self-reflection, did notice something was amiss.

He originally wanted to enter the storm circle and go to the small node city where he had run a business for a while, trying to use the energy of the anomaly to obtain stable profits.

This was also his last team, but think about it carefully - why would they travel all the way to such a far place to build a node city?

Is it because he wants to do it? It seems not.

The digitized memories were quickly called out, and after carefully reading through them, he realized that the establishment of the small node city here was an internal decision made during the expansion period of the entertainment company.

The decision maker... I have been involved in this matter, but I don't have a very deep impression of it.

Continuing to think about it, after arriving at the Storm Circle, why did I suddenly work so hard for the mercenary system without any subsequent memories, and even think that doing so was a promotion?
My thoughts are becoming more and more complicated, and there are more and more things I want to recall. The uneasiness in my heart - if it still has a heart now - is becoming more and more solid.

Where did my memory disconnect? Or was my thoughts blocked in some direction?

During the brainstorming session, he tried hard to grasp the ray of inspiration, and suddenly looked up at the guy who was disturbing his thoughts.

At this time, Seifer was dodging and moving in the heavy encirclement, and had continuously used the enemy's firepower and his own firepower to knock many machines to the ground.

Although it had some scars, most of them were just scrapes and collision damage, and the real heavy damage was almost zero. Even the mercenary system itself would be scratched by this kind of combat effectiveness.

I don't know how Cypher did it... Why is this guy so good at fighting? Is he really invincible?!

To be honest, that won't happen, at least not before the ammunition runs out or the enemy density decreases.

"Red Crossbow... what you said does make sense, but to be honest, compared to all that, you're the only thorn in my side right now."

Cypher kicked another machine off the battleship with its tracks, taking a moment to reply, "But you have no eyes, and no body. So when you realized you were being used, your first reaction was to kill me, a kind-hearted person?"

He suddenly remembered something: "Come to think of it, you used to boast about your artistic talent, the kind of guy who was quite keen on twisting things around. But now look at you."

This statement is indeed a case of bringing up something that is out of place - having become a pawn in the hands of someone is enough to make such a guy angry, and now he is being ridiculed by mercenaries.

The opponent was furious, and the first order he issued was to have all the surrounding machines attack together and not to engage in any more round-robin battles.

The second operation was to take off into the air, instantly transforming in the air into a strange flying machine, and swooping down straight towards the place where Seifer dodged!
The series of operations was shocking, but if he had taken a closer look at the weapon in Cypher's hand, he probably wouldn't have been so reckless.

The moment the two sides came into contact, the heavy double-jet rushed forward with a momentum that almost stuffed it into his mouth, and then opened fire!
