I'm not Yingjie

"Oh!"

Before he could finish his words, an explosion occurred below the right side of the manta ray.

The combatants holding missile launchers on the ground began to reload their ammunition after hitting the target, while others, after clearing out the surrounding Honkai Beasts, also began to attack the Emperor-level Honkai Beasts.

The manta ray opened the breathing hole in its lower abdomen after feeling the pain, and a large number of Honkai beasts emerged from it. It then swung its tail fin, and the slender tail fin, like a long whip, fanned towards the ground with terrifying potential energy.

But before reaching the ground, a dark figure flashed out from the void, and two blue long swords pierced into it mercilessly. Ice crystals and lightning spread from the tail fin, easily breaking it in the middle.

"howl--"

At this moment, everyone else also activated the space-time rupture system, dodged the wind blades falling from the sky, and attacked the manta ray.

This time Lin is not fighting alone. This emperor-level Honkai beast is far less difficult to deal with than the judgment-level Shesha, both in terms of intelligence and cunning, as well as in strength.

"Here you go." Kevin handed the rifle to Kosmo and made a shooting motion. "Have you ever played shooting games in the game city? Just pull the trigger."

Kosmo skillfully held the rifle in a standard grip: "I have never played with it, but I know how to use it."

"Very good, now you cover me properly and go shoot those monsters." Kevin took out his pistol and stared at the manta ray.

The Honkai beast emerged from the manta ray's body, and when it saw the two closest targets on the rooftop, it bared its sharp fangs and pounced on them, howling and biting.

"Ta, ta, ta..." Kosmo fired without hesitation. The bullets of the Honkai armed forces could easily deal with these lower-level Honkai beasts. The bullets shattered the body tissues of the Honkai beasts into pieces and blew away in the wind.

"Bullets... eh?" Kosmo was about to ask Kevin for bullets when he realized that this rifle didn't seem to need bullets replaced. Upon closer inspection, he didn't find any shell casings ejected.

This time it was Kevin who jumped out from the edge of the roof. He used the body of the Honkai Beast as a springboard, stepped on it, and leaped towards the manta ray's eyes.

"Forest!"

A hook accurately broke through the wind, and Kevin reached out to grab the hook. The huge pulling force made him ignore the hurricane and fall straight to the target vital position of the manta ray.

Kosmo was also standing at the edge. He calmly aimed at the Honkai beasts approaching Kevin and shot them one by one.

"Shh-"

A pair of huge scarlet eyes slid past Kevin's eyes. Kevin immediately activated the space-time rupture system. During the slowed time, he aimed at the manta ray's eyes and pulled the trigger frantically.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The bullet penetrated into the thin eye membrane of the Honkai Beast, and a large amount of pink-purple blood spurted out!

"howl!"

But this wound was just a mosquito bite to the terrifying manta ray. Invisible wind blades shot out from its forehead instantly, and Kevin suddenly pulled the hook rope that he was holding tightly, pulling him out of the attack range to prevent him from being dismembered by the wind blades.

Bullets poured onto the manta ray's body. Even though most of the attacks were just tickles to it and did not hurt, the accumulation of bullets made this huge living target too much to bear.

With the help of the space-time rupture system, the originally deadly and dangerous wind pressure attack is no more than this.

The two long swords pulled out by the dark figure swimming upstream were like two blue scythes of the god of death that lit up in the wind and rain.

Lin used the wall as a springboard and hooked the manta ray's breathing port. He stopped at its lower abdomen, holding the Raikiri and Plasma Shadow Show in reverse grips on the left and right.

The viewing window was as bright as a lamp in the rain.

"bass!"

Chapter 5 Titan, Start

Blood, viscera, and Honkai beasts.

A layer of ice crystals condensed on the helmet visor, pure white, and he watched the filth flow out of the dirty body.

"Woo..."

The manta ray howled in pain, blood gushing out from its cuts like a waterfall.

"Success?" Kosmo exclaimed. He didn't expect that he could defeat the monster so easily.

No, it's just the beginning.

This wound only looks deep and is insignificant to an emperor-level Honkai beast.

Lin, who was in free fall, swung the plasma shadow show in his right hand backhand, and the falling blood solidified into an ice sculpture in the air and spread to the wound. He continued to run up along the ice road and rushed towards the wound he had cut.

At this time, the abilities of the Emperor-level Honkai Beast began to unfold.

The Honkai Beast that emerged from the manta ray's body suddenly accelerated, causing the airflow around the manta ray to also accelerate. The sudden high speed made Linton stop, and then he saw the changes in the airflow behind the Honkai Beast from the viewing window.

Although it cannot achieve the destructive power of the Fourth Herrscher, can it manipulate airflow and air pressure changes in a sophisticated manner?

In such a turbulent air flow environment, Lin's jet device could not be used and was blown away, and those Honkai beasts chased after him.

At this moment, the nearest tornado is quietly approaching.

……

"Parameter configuration is still 3% short, estimated time is minutes."

Delta's fingers were typing frantically on the keyboard. All the things he had memorized in his mind were now used. After working for dozens of hours without sleep, he now felt that his mind was exceptionally clear.

He stared at the jumping progress bar on the screen, and his restless heart calmed down.

What on earth are we fighting for? This old-fashioned question he has been asking himself over and over again for several years.

Most of the people in the Fire Moth joined for different reasons, but they were doing the same thing. It wasn't something noble, but they were indeed fighting for humanity.

Most of them have never thought about this issue. They just went to the battlefield and died there. Just like the war between humans, those who died at the hands of their own guns and the people who fired the guns did not necessarily think about the reasons for life and death.

But that's not entirely a bad thing. Worrying about the reasons will make the hand holding the weapon full of burden and guilt.

Until now, Delta still hasn't found the reason why he is still fighting after that man's death. Is he continuing his original ideals for humanity, or is he being supported by the soul of the dead to move forward?

I guess we will never get the answer.

Beads of sweat appeared on Delta's forehead. Besides him, the maintenance team was also doing the final equipment inspection to ensure that nothing went wrong when the Titan was running.

"Minister, everything is ready." The assistant stood beside him and watched him adjust the last bit of parameters. He waited for the progress bar to finish and clenched his fists. "If you can't find a driver, let me go. It's just a matter of sending the Titan to Lin. I can do it."

"..." Delta put down his hand, wiped the sweat with his sleeve, glanced at his assistant coldly, and said in a harsh tone, "You have sufficient theoretical knowledge, but you are too conservative. You don't look like a young man in his early twenties at all. You are even more conservative than me, a middle-aged man in my thirties. Your poor creativity is your biggest shortcoming."

"minister……"

“Humanity is advancing through innovation and creation. Once we stick to the old technology, then humankind will not be far from extinction.”

"..."

"Get it, young man?"

Delta patted his shoulder, but the assistant lowered his head and did not reply.

Delta walked up to the Titan and looked up at the mechanical giant. The lines of steel reminded him of the first time Lin walked into the R&D department with the first draft of the Titan.

"Who are you?" He sat behind the workbench, looking at the boy with his face covered by a hood in confusion.

"Soldier."

The messy line drawing was placed in front of him.

"A common soldier, just like you."

Delta's first impression of Lin was his ambiguous way of expression and his taciturn style of doing things.

After seeing the first draft and concept of Titan, Delta felt a strong desire in his heart for some reason. He wanted to create a mechanical giant called "Titan", just like the deus ex machina in those stories, sending an artificial savior to people in distress.

Later he realized that it was a wish that he could actually go to the battlefield.

The one who wanted to sit in the cockpit was no one else but himself.

Yes, he was longing for the clouds under his feet, while I was yearning for the singing birds flying high in the sky.

Even if it turns to ashes in the sun.

"drop--"

The progress bar has finished.

Suddenly, everything became quiet.

Everyone stopped what they were doing at the same time, stood still, and looked at Delta who was standing in front of Titan.

"What are you looking at? Logistics is doing logistics work." Delta looked around calmly and chuckled, "I'll go do my thing."

The cockpit opened up to him.

……

"Huh... I've experienced this countless times before, but this time it's the real start."

Delta put on protective clothing and a helmet and sat in the cockpit, tapping the control panel with his fingers skillfully to perform a startup check on the aircraft.

The energy supply is perfect, the particle cannon is equipped, the cluster missiles are installed, the floating backpack and the floating cannon are ready.

Delta is the designer and manufacturer of Titan, so apart from Lin, he is the only one who knows how to perfectly control Titan. In Lin's absence, the best solution is for him to act as the driver.

Just as he was about to start up, a communication from the Fire Moth headquarters suddenly rang in his communicator.

Sigma's voice came into his ears: "Delta! This is an order from the top. You cannot drive the Titan. You are more valuable than..."

"Fuck you." Delta opened the cockpit and threw the communicator out.

He stood at the hatch and waved to the others who were watching: "The wind is too strong and the signal is bad. Don't accept any other communications to avoid losing communication with the soldiers in the city."

He let out a breath and sat back in the cockpit, gripping the joystick tightly with both hands and looking calm.

[Cabin air pressure meets standards]

【Start to confirm components】

【Start Neural Connection】

"Woo——"

The huge amount of information was like a hot iron rod that pierced into Delta's brain violently. Blood immediately flowed from his nose and mouth, and he almost fell headfirst against the wall of the cockpit.

The perception of the surrounding space, the wind pressure one kilometer ahead, the operation of the mechanical connection shaft... these large and small pieces of information broke through the threshold of the human brain through neural connection interactions and violently filled the consciousness.

Blood flowed from his eyes like tears, and Delta twitched like a corpse that still retained its temperature.

【Driver's organ abnormality】

【warning】

"Cut off the neural connection! It's beyond his endurance limit!" The assistant snatched the operating panel from the stunned technician and tried to forcibly cut off the connection between Delta and Titan.

"stop……"

Delta's weak voice sounded from the Titan.

The assistant was stunned.

Titan's monitor slowly lit up, and the huge half-kneeling human figure broke free from his restraints and walked forward step by step.

The earth was shaking as it bid farewell to this fruit of human wisdom, which was standing in this world for the first time in a true sense.

"Hehe... Is this the world that Lin sees..." Delta gasped. The interaction of neural information was destroying his nerves and consciousness all the time. He might die of brain death at any second, but...

"Not bad." He couldn't help laughing. "Hahaha, being able to drive a giant robot made by myself has been my dream since I was a child!"

The man licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and excitedly pushed the operating lever to increase the propulsion power to maximum.

"Then...TT-079 Kai, Delta, attack!"

The Delta flight device made a soft sound like the chirping of a bird.

Mechanical meteor, starting from the ground.

Chapter 6 Birds

As the altitude rises, Titan breaks through the wind barrier, and the holographic cockpit provides a panoramic view of the scenery beneath your feet.

The G-force pressed Delta into his seat. Even with protective clothing on, his body, which had not been exercised for a long time and was damaged by a bad work and rest schedule, could not withstand the G-force generated when exceeding the speed of sound, and he had developed blackouts.

"Cough cough..." He had no idea which hole on his head the blood was coming from. His nasal cavity was full of blood bubbles and he couldn't cough out the blood in his mouth. The hallucinations of lack of oxygen were mixed with black and red images.

not enough.

In front of the raging storm, in front of humans, the huge Titan is like a delicate model that will collapse under the giant hand at any time. It is washed away, but it is also like an unyielding leaf in the torrent of waves and will never be submerged.

Without any trembling, Titan moved towards the deepest part in the blood vomited by Delta.

"drink!!!"
