Chapter 872: 534, Torrent and Iron Curtain_2
Qing Chen stood in the pigsty, head lowered, and said, “I’ve been waiting, waiting for an opportunity.”
Jindai Yunzi froze for a mont. He suddenly felt a strange emotion enveloping him, as if he was not facing a captive, but a warrior waiting for the dawn of victory.
But the other party had obviously already submitted.
“I waited for you to drive the prisoners out of the military camp, so I wouldn’t worry about hurting innocents.”
“I waited for you to send the Jindai soldiers to pursue them, so the A02 base would be defensively weak…”
Qing Chen’s voice grew softer, almost inaudible in the cold wind.
Jindai Yunzi unconsciously took two steps forward, straining to hear Qing Chen, but quickly stopped.
He smiled and said, “You want to lure over and kill to vent your anger? It’s not that easy. And do you think the A02 base is defenseless? Do you see those 24 tal Storm on the Black walls? They’ve locked onto your life signs. The mont you step out of that pigsty, they’ll open fire. And those 24 ‘Amaterasu-1’ war robots, each one can rival a B-Class Genetic Warrior!”
Jindai Yunzi continued, “Of course, you’re shackled and can’t walk out of the pigsty anyway.”
At that mont, Qing Chen looked up, smiling, “Is that so.”
The sound of tal shackles falling suddenly rang out in the pigsty, and the chains fell into the mud.
Jindai Yunzi was shocked. Before he could react, the shackles on Qing Chen were already fully undone!
Only then did Jindai Yunzi notice the Black tail ring that had appeared on Qing Chen’s finger.
The tail ring nad “Power” in North Arican legend, could open all the doors in the world.
But this description was inaccurate because it could also open all the locks in the world!
Qing Chen stated calmly, “Although I had good grades in school, I never understood the true aning of those poems. But during the seven dark days I quietly spent in Osaka, I sohow recalled the verse by Xin Qiji, ‘Awakening from a drunken night, I lit a lamp to see my sword, dreaming of trumpets sounding in the camps, dividing the roasted at under my command with my subordinates, hearing the strings of fifty bows,’ and sohow, I felt an imnse heroism.”
Jindai Yunzi didn’t understand why Qing Chen was saying these nonsensical things. He retreated, his face twisted with fear, “I advise you not to co out, don’t seek your own death.”
Qing Chen suddenly asked, “I promised Wang Yuchao and Zhao Mingke that in their next life, they would be born in a peaceful era, where the weak would no longer be bullied. Maybe they’ll soon reincarnate, so I have to hurry.”
Jindai Yunzi shouted sternly, “War robots, catch him!”
Qing Chen rubbed his wrists and smiled, “One.”
The 24 ‘Amaterasu-1’ war robots simultaneously turned their heads towards Jindai Yunzi, “I am here.”
At that mont, Jindai Yunzi felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, his body chilled to the bone!
How could the 24 war robots he struggled to obtain suddenly follow Qing Chen’s orders!
The next mont, Qing Chen was no longer dejected as before. Instead, he leapt out of the pigsty, charging towards Jindai Yunzi with ferocity.
However, between him and Jindai Yunzi stood 24 tal Storm.
Although One had found a way to control the 24 war robots, the tal Storm were part of a separate military defense system of the A02 secret military base. They were controlled by cables and couldn’t be breached by any wireless network.
Unless connected physically to the network, One had no way to seize control of them.
At this mont, the tal Storm on the Black walls began to emit a crackling sound, as the six barrels started to spin rapidly.
The heavy firepower weapon, firing 3600 bullets per minute, made bullets rain like a river, like a waterfall.
In the history of the Federation, humans had invented tal Storm that could fire a million bullets per minute, but they discovered that during direct battlefield coverage, the cost of a million bullets per minute was even higher than that of an electromagnetic cannon. Ineffective shooting would account for more than 99% of the firepower.
In fact, the tal Storm that fired 3600 bullets per minute was the optimal solution.
In one ammunition load, it was sufficient to cover an entire area within a range of 4500 ters.
In the darkness, the tal torrent of bullets created a curtain, covering the entire square outside the detention area.
But sothing astonishing happened. The 24 Black-bodied war robots ford an intricate Black iron curtain, stopping the tal torrent outside.
Using the most advanced computational power, One made them move with Qing Chen, always positioning them in the path of the tal Storm’s ballistic trajectory.
Like 24 valiant warriors standing firm!
Bullets clanged against the war robots, and their alloy armor was no longer smooth but pitted by the barrage.
So war robots had their hydraulic drive systems damaged, blue hydraulic fluid leaking onto the snow, yet the war robot continued to defend Qing Chen, limping but steady.
So war robots had their chanical eyes struck, but they could still share vision with other war robots.
So war robots had their alloy armor on their chests shattered by the tal torrent, so they turned, walking backwards with the back armor taking the brunt.
The earth-shattering power of the 24 “Cloudburst” tal Storm was being firmly resisted by these 24 war robots.
Their inclined stances were like warriors fighting a flood, shielding Qing Chen as he moved against the current!
Jindai’s proud, seemingly impregnable, alloy bodies had now beco Qing Chen’s most steadfast mobile fortress!
These war robots, sacrificing everything even at the cost of their own destruction, were protecting Qing Chen!
One and Qing Chen didn’t need to communicate. The tacit understanding between the two, the world’s most proficient in calculation “humans,” ensured the optimal solution was clear to both, knowing what each would choose to do.
The only choice remained singular.
Jindai Yunzi fled in a panic, feeling an intense fear despite being protected by such powerful firepower.
He couldn’t shake the feeling that tonight, his life was at risk!
But in the next mont, Qing Chen was counting down silently, 10, 9, 8, 7… 3, 2, 1!
This was the interval between the Cloudburst tal Storm’s attacks. No matter how powerful the chanical thermal weapon, it needed to cool down and reload.
Even the most advanced cooling fluid had specific heat capacity limits. For this reason, each electromagnetic tal Storm was designed with an optimal ti for replacing cooling fluid and magazines.
Every minute, there would be a 5-second window.
When Qing Chen finished his countdown, these 24 tal Storm were firing in staggered intervals. When two tal Storm entered the cooling phase, the remaining 22 continued to spew flas.
But this was enough for Qing Chen and One.
With two stopping, a slight flaw appeared in the otherwise ticulously designed firing path.
Qing Chen felt as if he was back in Prison 18, where the tal Storm on the firmant showered down like rain, but not a drop touched him.
This divine-level calculation was not a challenge for Qing Chen and One!
In the midst of this overwhelming tal torrent,
When Qing Chen’s countdown reached zero,
The 24 war robots suddenly changed formation. 23 of them, on the brink of destruction, ford a new iron curtain while the last one moved with Qing Chen, maneuvering through the gaps in the Storm’s ballistic path, breaching the A02 secret military base’s interior.
The last war robot, upon breaching the interior building, instantly inserted its fingers into a circuit.
0.1 seconds later, the external tal Storm stopped firing completely. The Black barrels drooped like the heads of defeated beasts.
These low-hanging heads symbolized the collapse of the independent military network of the A02 base, utterly conquered by One.
Qing Chen looked at it, and One said, “There are still 180 soldiers on duty inside the base. Jindai Yunzi is heading to the underground temporary shelter. I can open the alloy gate of the shelter for you, but I promised dad not to kill anyone.”
“Thank you.”
