NIKKE, when the stars bloom

It's just that the speeds of both parties are very similar, and Snow White is the more troublesome attacker, so Xiaocao always has enough time to repair himself after being hit by an electromagnetic cannon, causing Snow White to have to continue chasing and repeating the above steps.

"Hold it back. We don't need to fight it head-on. All we have to do is force the Letcher to slow down."

Walqiulei's orders kept ringing in the voice channel. The girl's ideas seemed simple and effective at first glance, but they were not the best ideas to Ludmila.

Her Majesty the Queen frowned and asked in confusion, "Squire, the lieutenant and his men haven't gone far yet, why don't we ask for help from him?"

"This is the mission assigned to me by the Ark, and I should be the one to carry it out." The commander of the counterattack force said so, and then she looked towards the north again.

"Besides, the instructor has his own tasks to do. If I have to trouble the instructor for everything, it would be better for my counterattack force to be directly merged into the instructor's squadron."

"..."

Staring at the girl's stubborn eyes, Ludmila glanced at Alice and Nian who were standing by her side, and shook her head helplessly, reminding her:

"Servant, holding back the Letcher is a strategic idea. Since you plan to handle this matter yourself, you should quickly arrange specific interference tactics.

Alice...she doesn't know how to fight freely."

Chapter 238 Snow and Fire

"Second Lieutenant, Second Lieutenant! It's bad!!!"

Just as Phoenix and his group were crossing the vast snowfield and coming to the vast ice field which was more difficult to walk on, a ghost girl who stayed at the outpost finally caught up with the squadron from behind in a panic.

"Ludmila and the others are about to... No, no, they should have already started fighting with Letcher!"

"Um???"

Phoenix, who was standing in the middle of the team, snorted in surprise, causing the confused Nikkis around him to look sideways at their own lieutenant.

"It's that gorilla, the noisy gorilla! I heard from the commander that it came from the east!"

The ghost girl who came to deliver the message floated around in the air anxiously, not forgetting to scold the other party.

"She's so stupid, she doesn't have any tactics! Should the lieutenant go back to support them?!"

Support them?

When thinking of Walqiulei's original identity as the protagonist, Phoenix immediately came to an unnecessary conclusion.

After all, the protagonist will definitely not die before the finale, and the person who comes is just a mere Xiaocao, who is being hunted by Bai Xue, and Walqiulei is accompanied by Ludmila and Alice.

With such a luxurious lineup, is it possible that she could die at the hands of that Letcher gorilla?

Phoenix simply didn't believe this.

It's just a pig, but with Alice and Snow White as two killing gods, it would be very difficult for it to kill itself.

So instead of wasting time to provide support, it is better to continue heading towards the Sky Ring...

suddenly!

Just as Phoenix was about to continue to follow the main force across the ice field, a possibility comparable to a disaster suddenly broke through the sea of ​​​​thoughts and hovered in the center of his brain.

Wait a minute...if Xiaocao finds that he can't defeat Huaer Qiulei and the others alone, will he call Leiche who is stationed in Tianhuan to help?

A guaranteed minimum size of 10,000 Letchers? ? ?

"Go back! Everyone follow me back to the rescue post now!"

Shocked by his own inference, Phoenix quickly waved his arm and ordered Nikki and the others to turn back the way they came.

More than 10,000 Letchers?

Even if they could kill one person with one shot, the total amount of bullets available to all members of the squadron would not be enough to gather 10,000 rounds.

"Honglian, I just received news that a Letcher instance coming from the east may have fought with Walqiulei and the others at the outpost."

As he walked back, the lieutenant instructed Honglian beside him,

“The Sky Ring is next to the outpost, and I’m worried that Letcher might call for help.

We have to try to kill it instantly before it realizes that its life is in danger. So don't join the fight at the beginning, wait until you are sure you can kill it with one blow, then you can join in."

"I know, don't worry, sir."

After listening to Phoenix's arrangements, Honglian's expression was still as if he was on an outing, and he nodded lazily and agreed.

Seeing her nonchalant look, someone who was unsure had to add more shocking information to try to make this drunkard realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Bai Xue has been chasing it for two or three months but still hasn't killed it. You should take it easy."

"?"

As a white-haired person, when Honglian heard the word "Shirayuki" come out of the lieutenant's mouth, her eyes finally showed an obvious change.

There was seriousness and joy, but the majority was surprise.

We have been teammates for so many years, how could Jiumengzi not know how powerful the anti-ship electromagnetic cannon in the foodie's hand is?

Hard-core resistance to electromagnetic cannon? ?

Is he a heretic???

Her expression gradually became serious, and Honglian subconsciously raised her hand to adjust the brim of her hat, but suddenly remembered that her beloved bamboo hat was still left in the tunnel of District H, so she had to give up awkwardly.

"If even my friends can't do anything to me, I should be careful."

As he spoke, a murderous intent slowly overflowed with the changes in Jiumengzi's body shape, which seemed to be even more biting than the wind from the far north.

……

……

boom--! ! !

The earth-shaking roar shook every snowflake on the snowfield.

A full-power anti-ship electromagnetic cannon hit Xiaocao's left shoulder, instantly separating the gorilla's exaggerated left arm from his torso.

"Roar--!!!"

The extremely intense pain made this intelligent Letcher roar like an animal. Soon, it ejected the missiles on its back and began to bombard Nikki within its field of vision.

Bang bang bang bang bang-! ! !

But who could have imagined that every time a missile burst out from the launcher, a large-caliber armor-piercing bullet would accurately hit the missile warhead and successfully detonate it.

It was Alice, the "fairy-tale type" Nikki who forced the firing rate of a sniper rifle to be as fast as a rifle.

"You humans and scrap metal! All you can do is use your numbers to bully the few --!!!"

Perhaps it was because he was hit too hard by two sniper rifles, and not only lost his face but also almost lost his life, Xiaocao finally couldn't bear it anymore, and raised his ferocious head, bared his fangs, and planned to let out another scream for rescue.

That is at this moment!

A subsonic white phantom with a hint of scarlet passed under Xiaocao's neck in the blink of an eye.

Immediately, half of its head fell on the snow, and its huge body lost balance and fell to the left.

Bai Xue: “!”

This sudden scene not only made Bai Xue open her eyes slightly, but also made Drumilla and others who had been fighting hard for a long time stand still.

Did something just pass by?

Before this question could take root in everyone's mind, noisy curses occupied everyone's thoughts.

"Despicable! Humans, scrap metal, all of them are despicable--!!!"

Even though his head had been cut in half, the remaining thoughts still allowed Xiaocao to remotely control his throat and roar out his dissatisfaction, as well as Letcher's unique distress signal mixed in the roar.

"He's not dead?"

In the distance, Phoenix, who had just returned from the north, felt his right eyelid twitching after witnessing this scene.

"Evacuate! Ludmila, Walqiulei! Take your own people and retreat south as quickly as possible!

Bai Xue! Hurry up and take that guy’s head…”

"Roar--!!!"

Just when the lieutenant was about to remind Bai Xue to blow off Xiaocao's head, a terrifying roar of an evil dragon came from the sky and drowned out everyone's voice, and also made the man's pupils shrink to the limit.

Nihilista...

"spread--!"

The man with bloodshot eyes ignored the safety of his eardrums, took off his headset, put the microphone to his lips, and roared into the voice channel.

"Don't just stand there! All of you, get the hell out of here!!!"

However, it was too late.

The moment Phoenix said "scatter", a raging fire in the sky was like a tsunami, covering the snowy land.

boom----

All that could be heard was the rubbing of violent air currents in space, and a fire stretching for miles began to burn wildly on the snowfields of the far north.

The giant mechanical dragon that was still gliding downwards took this opportunity to grab Xiaocao's body and half of his head, and rose into the air again with gusts of wind and waves, disappearing in the far north.

Chapter 239: A World Beyond the Plot

"commander--!"

The extremely hot air waves continuously hit Marian's terrified face. The ice and snow turned into increasingly dangerous steam under the burning of the overbearing flames, which could take the life of an ordinary person in an instant.

But even so, when the water vapor was away from the protection of the flames and exposed to a space of more than thirty degrees below zero, in just a blink of an eye, they turned into countless tiny ice crystals and slowly floated down from above.

"Commander——!!!"

The vision was blocked by the white fog, and there was no response from the commander in the voice channel. Anis's heart-wrenching cry in the distance showed that Marian was not the only one who was panicking about Phoenix's safety.

Fortunately, when Nikki and the others were about to lose their temper, the man's hoarse voice finally arrived and successfully calmed everyone's minds.

"……gather!"

The nano-metal that made up the shield was reshaped into a right arm, and Phoenix slowly stood up. He felt his entire nasal cavity and throat burning with pain due to the stimulation of the scalding airflow, and his ear canal emitted a sharp buzzing sound, and he could not distinguish any sound.

"Mihara, you and Rabbi help me count the number of people, including those at the outpost."

The temporary deafness prevented the lieutenant from hearing what Mihala and Yuni said as they ran towards him, but seeing that neither of them chose to hold a gun, it indirectly indicated that the current situation was not too bad.

At least that damn fire dragon didn't intend to turn around and spit at them again.

"commander!"

On the other side, Mihara, who hurried to the lieutenant, saw her man rubbing his ears subconsciously. She immediately used her own special ability to synchronize the other's pain sensation to herself.

moment!

A dull pain as if pulling on a nerve suddenly attacked Mihaela's left and right ear canals.

"It is most likely temporary deafness caused by a torn eardrum, and there is obvious burning pain in the nose, mouth, and throat."

Faced with the constant pain, the woman expressed her feelings and judgments without changing her expression.

At the same time, several Nikkis who were not far from the second lieutenant also hurried over. After hearing Mihala's report, they all looked embarrassed.

Temporary hearing loss?

On the battlefield, the danger level brought by deafness is far greater than that of broken arms and legs.

"Lavi, the commander asked you to count the number of people, including those at the outpost."

Because she didn't want to interrupt her best friend's examination of the commander's injuries, after seeing Lapi, Yuni decisively stepped forward to convey the message assigned to them by the commander on behalf of her best friend.

In response, Rabi nodded solemnly and began to try to re-establish the voice channel with Rudmila and the others.

At this moment, the dazed Tia did not rush to her instructor as usual. Instead, she looked around inexplicably and asked a crucial question that made everyone nervous.

"Hey~~~Where's Honglian?"

……

……

Ode——!

The high-speed white shadow that was about to reach the sound barrier disappeared in a flash, leaving behind two high walls of snowflakes that rose out of thin air and slowly collapsed back to the ground.
