He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
"Which direction is the enemy camp in? How far is it from here?"
As he asked, he pulled something out of his game backpack. It was smaller than a tank but much larger than an energy gun. It had the same silver-gray metallic texture, with a row of firing tubes at the bottom and a tilted firing stand at the front.
"This is a cruise missile mount."
He gave a casual explanation.
The sample only had three shells. But that was more than enough to fight a battle here.
"Fire one shot first to disrupt the enemy formation, then remotely control the tank to drive over and crush them in one fell swoop. As for the remaining survivors, you are responsible for hunting them down."
He spoke calmly, as if saying, "The weather is nice today."
The crowd looked at each other, none of them knowing what Caesar was planning to do.
Apollonius stepped forward and stood beside Cerysla.
He was Lord Yeshi, and his judgment of terrain and distance was the most accurate. When he heard Lin Si ask about the direction, he raised his hand and pointed to a hilly area in the southeast.
"Over there!"
"It's about three kilometers from our camp. If we want to launch a surprise attack, I suggest sending out several teams to secretly push the catapults over at night..."
"Catapult?"
Lin Si waved her hand, interrupting him.
"No need for that trouble."
He turned and walked behind the cruise missile launcher, looking down at the screen on the launch panel.
The screen displayed a series of data, including direction, distance, altitude, and wind speed. He pointed his finger and tapped on the screen.
"Three thousand meters, southeast direction, OK, settings complete."
Lin Si grinned, her finger hovering over the round button that read 'launch'.
"Everyone,"
He glanced back at the crowd.
"Okay."
He pressed the button.
The next second, a loud bang was heard.
"Boom—!"
Chapter 287 HKS! Is this Nicardo's divine punishment?
That wasn't thunder, nor was it an explosion; it was a booming sound that erupted from inside the gun carriage.
Immediately afterwards, a dark shadow leaped out of the launch tube, trailing a white plume of smoke, and shot into the sky like an arrow.
Heather was the first to react.
Her pupils contracted sharply, and she instinctively flashed to protect Cerberus, her longsword drawn half an inch from its sheath, her body tense.
"Enemy attack!"
As she uttered those two words, Labinus and Seneca had already moved.
The two men simultaneously stood in front of Cerberus, weapons drawn, their gazes fixed on the receding black shadow.
All the Golden Men present picked up weapons.
"Enemy attack? Where?"
"The sound is coming from the gun carriage!"
"Watch out for that lump of metal!"
"Protect Caesar!"
Amidst the chaos, Lin Si stood behind the group, watching their tense backs, paused for a moment, and then laughed.
What are you doing?
He waved his hand, his tone filled with a helpless mix of amusement and exasperation.
"It wasn't an enemy attack, it was the sound this thing was making."
He pointed to the cruise missile gun mount next to him, with wisps of white smoke still rising from the launch tube.
"I'm just demonstrating how to use it for you."
Everyone was stunned again.
They looked at the gun mount, then at the sky.
The dark shadow had already shrunk to a tiny dot and was flying southeast at an extremely fast speed.
Then, under everyone's gaze, the little dot grew smaller and smaller until it finally disappeared into the horizon of the hilly area.
A few seconds passed.
It may have been five seconds, or it may have been ten seconds; no one has ever counted them precisely.
A deep, muffled roar came from afar.
"Boom—!"
The sound was louder and deeper than when it was launched, as if something underground had exploded, and even the earth trembled slightly.
Immediately afterwards, a mushroom cloud rose from the distance, churning and expanding, slowly spreading across the sky.
Everyone: "..."
Crydela, deep within her consciousness: "........"
The battlefield was deathly silent.
Even the wind seemed to fall silent for a moment.
The spear in Labinus's hand fell to the ground with a 'clatter,' but he did not bend down to pick it up.
He just stared at the mushroom cloud in the distance, his lips slightly parted as if he wanted to say something, but his vocabulary seemed to have been burned out, and not a single word could come out.
Seneca's hand was still gripping the hilt of the sword, but his knuckles were already white from clenching it.
She glanced at the clouds in the distance, then at the still-smoking gun mount, then at the mushroom cloud in the distance, and then at the gun mount again.
After going through the cycle three times, I finally confirmed one thing.
That cloud in the distance was created by this thing.
Heather drew her sword halfway out, then withdrew it.
She stood before Ceredra, her sword-wielding hand trembling slightly, not from fear, but from a feeling she couldn't quite describe.
It's like watching an ordinary person suddenly throw a mountain away.
Apollonius opened his mouth, his voice dry.
"Caesar... what is that?"
After asking the question, he suddenly felt a little silly.
Because Caesar had already given the answer just now.
"Cruise missile"
Caesar did indeed say that.
The problem is,
What is "cruising"?
What is a "missile"?
No one could answer his question.
Because, apart from Lin Si, everyone present had only one thought in their minds at that moment.
Is this thing a lump of iron or the Titan itself?
Meanwhile, three kilometers away, the Suspended Vanguard Army's position was descending into complete chaos.
They didn't even know what had happened.
One second they were still deploying their troops and waiting for the order to charge, and the next second, a dark shadow fell from the sky and crashed into the very center of the command center.
Then came the explosion, then the flames, then the spreading shockwave.
Tents were blown away, flagpoles were broken, and soldiers were thrown several meters away by the blast wave. Screams, shouts, and hisses mingled together.
The command center is gone.
Half of the well-prepared military formation was affected, with splinters of wood and chains scattered all over the ground.
The most terrifying thing is that the generals of the Suspended Vanguard Army have disappeared without a trace at the epicenter of the explosion.
The surviving taxi drivers struggled to their feet, let out a roar,
What happened?
"HKS! Where did the attack come from?"
"An attack from the sky! Divine punishment, it must be divine punishment!"
"Does Nicardoli not acknowledge this battle?"
"HKS!"
As for Ohma, Lin Si looked at the mushroom cloud rising in the distance and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, it works well."
He turned to the group of golden-haired people who were still in a daze, and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Alright, their army should be paralyzed by now. Next,"
He weighed the remote control in his hand.
"It's time to let our 'earth beast' go out for a walk."
"Boom boom boom boom boom—"
A deep rumble came from the tank, its tracks began to turn, crushing the gravel and dirt on the ground. The enormous, silver-gray machine moved slowly forward under everyone's watchful eyes.
The group instinctively took a step back, but then, because of the 'docile' behavior of the metal lump, they unconsciously took a step forward.
Several daring Golden Descent members had already circled around to the side of the tank, their eyes wide open, as if they were examining a rare and exotic beast they had never seen before.
"It moved! It really moved!"
"Still saying it's not a giant earth beast?"
"Your giant earth beast can even bend its neck?"
"........."
Apollonius did not speak.
He was looking down, close to Cerberus, his eyes fixed on the screen of the remote control in Lin Si's hand.
The screen showed the view in front of the tank: grass, gravel, and a mushroom cloud rising in the distance.
"Caesar, can we see the outside from here?"
His voice trembled slightly.
This is unbelievable.
A lump of iron that can not only move on its own, but also transmit what it sees to another small box?
"Yes."
Lin Si casually responded, then lightly flicked the joystick on the remote control with her thumb.
The tank's tracks adjusted their direction, and the hull turned slightly southeast, heading towards the direction from which the mushroom cloud was rising.
"This is live footage; you can see wherever the tanks are driving."
