Chapter 557 Mechanical Beast
With a roar, the mechas started up one after another.
War-type mechas do not have the ability to fly and can only glide in mid-air at most. Therefore, Hank and others planned to cross a wasteland and reach the place where the Lighthouse Floating City crashed from the land.
"Lunt Floating City is one of the three main floating cities under the Hope Government."
On the way to the crash landing site in the Lighthouse Floating City, Hank tells Enzo information about the Hope Government.
"The residents of Lunt Floating City are probably around one million people."
"One-tenth of them are hunters who have been injected with genetic medicine. However, there are not many people with the ability to control mechas, but they are not a minority either. Mainly because the cost of building a mecha is too high."
Enzo nodded slightly and drove the mecha forward.
In the doomsday wasteland world, mechas are the most powerful weapons. They can give ordinary people powerful powers, so even the lowest mecha models are very expensive.
There are more than a few hundred thousand hunters, but the number of people who own mechas is no more than one-thirtieth.
"When did the Starscream organization appear?" Enzo asked.
"About...ten years ago."
Hank sighed and said in a deep voice: "At that time, the Government of Hope had not yet been established, and the major floating cities were in charge of each other. The situation was similar to the era of warlord separatism. Although the floating cities were peaceful on the surface, they were actually in competition. relation."
"Until ten years ago!"
"A group of mechanical armed forces suddenly attacked the Silver Star Floating City. They are the Starscream Organization. They possess extremely powerful technology. The Silver Star Floating City was caught off guard, so it fell in just three days."
"That was also the first time the Starscream organization came to prominence."
"Before this, the human survivors had no idea that there was another organization that controlled such a powerful force. It was from then on that the floating cities began to establish communication methods to facilitate the fight against the Starscream organization."
"After the Silver Star Floating City crashed, almost all the residents above were wiped out."
"However, there are still a small number of scientists and soldiers who survived, but later they all defected to the Starscream organization. They have a chip that can be implanted into the human brain. No matter how powerful the hunter is, once controlled by the chip, he will be completely destroyed. Lose yourself and become a puppet of the Starscream organization."
"Ten years ago!"
"The first crashed Silver Star Floating City!" Enzo sat in the mecha cabin, his eyes flickering slightly as he wrote down these two names.
"After the Silver Star Floating City was shot down by the Starscream Organization, within just three years, another floating city crashed. Without exception, it was all due to the attack of the Starscream Organization. It was not until that time that the remaining floating cities were alert. .”
"The existence of the Starscream organization is not aimed at a certain floating city, but all floating cities. Since then, the three main cities, including Lunt Floating City and Red Stone Floating City, have joined forces with other floating cities to form the Government of Hope."
"From now on, I hope that the government and the Starscream Organization will officially declare war!"
"Facing the threat of the Starscream organization, I hope the government took the initiative at first and destroyed several of the opponent's bases. However, except for the discovery of some mechanical creatures and humans controlled by the central control chip, nothing was gained." Hank said in a tone. heavy.
"Nothing gained, what do you mean?" Enzo raised an eyebrow.
"It means that the Hope Government has been at war with the Starscream Organization for ten years, but they still haven't seen an important member of the other party." Hank said helplessly with a hint of bitterness in his eyes.
Enzo narrowed his eyes, and some of the inferences in his mind seemed to be verified.
"None of the core members of the Starscream organization have been captured?"
"Yes, that's exactly it."
Hank shook his head and sighed, "The Starscream organization appeared ten years ago. It had never shown any signs before. It was as if it appeared out of thin air, and its purpose was to destroy the floating city."
"Did all one hundred floating cities in the Doomsday Era fall because of the Starscream organization?" Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Without exception, all of them."
Hank's face was solemn and he said solemnly: "Since the establishment of the Hope Government, the Starscream organization has made several plans to attack the floating city, but none of them succeeded. Therefore, they began to choose other ways to destroy the floating city. The simplest of them is to send out Some humans controlled by central control chips sneaked into the floating city to steal the core of Orain."
"Star Island Floating City!" Enzo's eyes flashed.
The reason why Star Island Floating City fell was because the core of Orain was stolen by a gold-level hunter. After investigation afterwards, it was found that the other party had indeed joined the Starscream organization. Now it seems that it was controlled by the central control chip. .
"Aurain's Core?"
Suddenly, Enzo's heart moved and he asked, "Is the Starscream organization attacking the floating city just for the core of Orain?"
A few years ago, the Star Island Floating City crashed.
According to the contents of the scientist's notebook, after the Aurain core of Star Island Floating City was stolen, the floating city began to be in danger, but the Starscream organization did not launch an attack to destroy Star Island Floating City.
Among them, there may be a reason why Aurain's core has been stolen, Star Island Floating City is destined to crash, and the Starscream Organization does not need to attack again. What is more likely is that the fundamental purpose of the Starscream Organization is to do for Aurain. the core.
After using the gold-level hunter to steal the core of Orain, the Starscream organization's goal has been completed, so they do not need to take action again and carry out a meaningless attack on the Star Island Floating City.
"I hope the government only understands the purpose of the Starscream Organization in recent years."
Hank shook his head helplessly and sighed, "The goal of the Starscream organization is not to simply destroy the floating city at all, but for the core of Aurain. The reason why they attacked the floating city is because after the floating city fell to the earth, they could It’s easier to capture the core of Orain.”
"It turns out that the focus is on the core of Orain."
Enzo murmured to himself. After understanding the purpose of the Starscream organization, some things seemed to be more clearly analyzeable.
Since the Starscream organization attacked the floating city for the core of Aurain, what is the significance of them seizing the core of Aurain?
In other words, what secrets are hidden in the core of Orain itself?
According to the official statement of this world, the Orain Core is the crystallization of the wisdom of human civilization. Enzo originally had no doubts about this, but after studying the Orain Core, he had some doubts about his previous ideas. .
The core of Orain possesses extremely powerful energy. Is this crystallization of technology and energy really something that humans, as survivors of the doomsday, can develop?
"How much do you know about the core of Orain?" Enzo suddenly asked.
Hank frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Since the end of the world, human civilization has begun to abandon all entertainment activities under the threat of radiation, and all people have invested in the research and development of technology, and the floating city project has also been launched."
"The core of Orain is the energy source that exists for the floating city to lift into the sky. Therefore, it was only developed by scientists after the floating city project. Even the wastelanders should be very clear about this, right?"
Enzo said nothing, his eyes flashed thoughtfully.
As he learned more about the world, the doubts in his heart also increased, including whether the Orain core was developed by humans and what the Starscream organization represented.
Even... what is the reason for the end of the world?
A hundred years ago, Enzo was also a resident of the Aquamarine World. At that time, mankind was still in a prosperous era. But with the development of the soul chip, in just three years, the end of the world struck like a storm.
What is the connection between the two?
In other words... did Enzo travel to the wizarding world by accident, or was he driven by some force?
One doubt after another appeared in Enzo's mind.
Seeing that Enzo fell silent, Hank did not interrupt. Everyone continued to move towards the area where the lighthouse floating city fell. The sky gradually fell into darkness. Fortunately, the war mecha had a lighting function.
The bright beam of light dispersed the surrounding darkness.
Suddenly, there was a sound like an electric current, and then the ground trembled, and terrifying cracks began to spread, as if an ancient giant beast was about to crawl out of the ground, causing Hank and others to suddenly change their expressions.
"Everyone, be careful!" Hank shouted quickly.
Enzo also controlled the Red Bee mecha to stop, looked forward, and turned on the scanning function of the chip. The outline of a huge creature gradually appeared, with hundreds of octopus-like tentacles.
"Be careful, it's an electric snake mechanical beast!!"
Seeing the monster emerging from the ground, Hank took a deep breath, quickly warned everyone, and quickly retreated back.
"Electric snake mechanical beast?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.
He quickly searched for information about the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast in his mind. After a moment, a clear look appeared on his face. The so-called Electric Snake Mechanical Beast is similar to the Destroyer Robot. They are both mechanical armed forces, but the Destroyer belongs to Hope. A robot developed by the government, and the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast is the technological power of the Starscream organization.
This mechanical monster is huge, with hundreds of mechanical tentacles, and its internal core is like a power plant, possessing powerful energy. Five years ago, it was sent out by the Starscream organization to attack a floating city that fell to the earth.
It was by relying on this mechanical monster that the Starscream organization destroyed a floating city and successfully seized the core of Orain, which dealt a serious blow to the Hope government. Hundreds of mecha warriors even died in that battle.
But then, I hope the government will also send mecha warriors to fight back.
After an extremely tragic war, almost all of the mechanical tentacles of the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast were blown off, and the mecha warriors suffered heavy casualties. For several years, this mechanical monster never appeared again.
"Sir, let's retreat quickly!" Hank shouted.
The terrifying Electric Snake Mechanical Beast was beyond the team's ability to contend with, so Hank couldn't even muster the courage to resist. He just wanted to leave here as soon as possible and reach a safe area.
"No need, just stay away." Enzo said lightly.
When driving the Red Bee mecha, Enzo's combat power is level two. The energy fluctuations emitted by the electric snake mechanical beast in front of him are at least level three. However, as long as they are mechanical creatures, they are controlled by signals, and the chip can restrain this. a little.
"Chip, invade the satellite network!"
After Enzo gave the order, he directly drove the mecha and rushed forward. The energy turned into bullets that slanted down like raindrops and hit the electric snake mechanical beast.
Da da da!
The shape of this electric snake mechanical beast is somewhat similar to an octopus. Although it is named after the electric snake, in fact, it has nothing to do with snakes, just because the tentacles are like snakes.
Stab!
The electric snake mechanical beast waved its tentacles, and the strong current burst out with fierce sounds. Enzo used the flying ability of the Red Bee mecha to swim flexibly in the sky and look for possibilities of attack.
"Alas! Maybe this can be considered plane suppression?"
Enzo sighed in his heart, it was just an electric snake mechanical beast, but it still took some effort to deal with it. If it were in the wizarding world, a single witchcraft could blast it into pieces.
However, even if magic is not available in this world, it is not difficult to deal with an electric snake mechanical beast. The powerful ability of the chip has extremely powerful restraint ability against any kind of mechanical creature.
Squeak!
The sound of electric current was heard endlessly. The Electric Snake Mechanical Beast waved its tentacles wildly towards the sky. The energy electrons turned into spheres and smashed towards the Red Bee Mecha, but Enzo dodged them.
"Chip, how long will it take to complete the control?"
Enzo asked in his mind that it would take some time for the chip to invade the central control chip of the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast. During this period, he needed to avoid the attack of the Mechanical Beast as much as possible.
Otherwise, even if the Red Bee mecha can form a protective shield against the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast's attack, it will inevitably consume a huge amount of energy.
"Sir, run away!"
Behind them, Hank and others had already distanced themselves, but feeling the violent energy of the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast, they still felt lingering fear and couldn't help but feel fear.
Enzo turned a deaf ear and paid no attention.
It's easy to kill this electric snake mechanical beast, but it takes time to control it.
Crackling!
The current continuously produces sonic booms, and the violent energy causes the surrounding area to seem to be trapped in the realm of lightning. The destructive power of the electric snake mechanical beast is close to that of a third-level life form, and the world's top combat power, the Golden Hunter, is , and can only exert the combat effectiveness of the second-order life form.
When the government originally hoped to confront the electric snake mechanical beast, it sacrificed more than a dozen gold-level hunters. With the help of the power of three anti-aircraft mechanical cannons, the electric snake mechanical beast's tentacles were smashed, and finally it penetrated Deep underground.
"Ding! The invasion failed."
Suddenly, the sound of the chip came in his mind, and Enzo couldn't help but frown. The chip's intrusion into the Electric Snake Mechanical Beast's network ended in failure. This was something he didn't expect at all.
At the same time, the electric snake mechanical beast once again fired out a large amount of electro-optical rays, and the overwhelming energy came violently. Enzo was unable to dodge at all and could only hold up the energy defense shield.
