Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 698: Lightning storm

Views:

On the other side of the earth, an army composed of soul puppets was marching silently.

This is an army that ordinary people cannot imagine.

All of them are tall puppets over two meters tall and fully armed. Their heavy steel footsteps are enough to stir up dust on the ground and make smoke columns rise in the sky. More than 3,000 attack machines equipped with inert heavy armor, like iron towers, serve as the vanguard. , their right hands are equipped with giant sickles, cone hammers, and chain saws that are difficult for normal humans to use, and their left hands, without exception, are equipped with a heavy shield as huge as a door panel. The thick alloy is forged with the most advanced techniques, enough to block the attack. Most of the superpowers and physical attacks.

Behind these assault-type puppets were twice as many suppression-type puppets. Although their armor was relatively weak, they were equipped with a variety of targeted weapons. They carry various types of ray generators, physical throwing guns and firearms for long-range shooting, as well as targeted 'energy stance generators'. If the weapons carried by these puppets were poured out at the same time, they would be enough to instantly destroy a large legion in the era of ordinary people. Not to mention the energy shield formed by the resonance of the stance generator, which is enough to block the onslaught of multiple powerful superpowers.

This is the means of ending that the Soul Puppet customized for the Siberian resistance forces that attacked their own territory. The 'Hunter Army' is a group of killing machines armed from top to bottom. Most superpowers only see them when they see them. If you can escape, there is absolutely no room for action.

But what is different from the imagination of Chariot and others is that this army of hunters is not the one they worked so hard to lure away - the army of hunters they are familiar with is now as it has always been on the mainland. It would take almost three months to circle the north before returning, but this one is a brand new army.

The productivity of soul puppets far exceeds the imagination of the escaped superpowers. They hold almost all the resources in the world. Since one is not enough to destroy their enemies, then create a second one. If the second one is not enough, they I don't mind making a third, fourth, or even fifth one.

They don't care.

"High-intensity super field reaction detected, four escaped supers found in the front left."

"Send the third team to carry out the cleanup work."

Between the silent military formations of soul puppets, extremely complex electromagnetic signals mixed with soul fluctuations are transmitted to each other. Centered on several "weird" puppets with special shapes hidden in the army, the hunter-killer army is organized and organized. A small team was sent out and rushed towards the plantation not far away that was judged to be 'captured' some time ago.

A few scattered superpowers. The soul puppets will not be contemptuous or careless. They are an elite suppression team based on the program algorithm in their soul core. This is an elite suppression team that can suppress those superpowers without weakening the combat power of the unit. A reasonable number of warriors, located in the center of the army, are responsible for relaying information and commanding the army. The core puppets continue to move forward with the army, galloping towards the predetermined target, the 'base camp' of the escaped superpowers.

But not long after, the core puppet responsible for relaying information paused slightly, and its soul core received dozens of urgent messages in succession almost at the same time.

"No. Tbeta-8453 lost signal."

"No. Tbeta-8457 lost signal."

"No. Tbeta-8459…."

"serial number… "

"The third team was completely wiped out. The organization was cancelled. The total wipeout time was confirmed... It was confirmed to be 1 second. The database was searched... and the match was successful. The enemy is a first-level high-level superpower!"

An almost endless waterfall of data flows in the observation window of the core puppet. Its eyes are flashing with light and it is processing information rapidly. After a few seconds, the puppet has made a decision: "Confirmed as a first-level high-level ability user, according to the purge agreement , the target of the hunter-killer army has shifted."

"Everyone is ready."

In the wilderness, the momentum swallowed up the sky and the earth, and the huge galloping steel army suddenly stopped. It turned from extreme movement to extreme stillness. The dense rectangular array dispersed instantly, becoming a scattered but regular formation like fish scales. The next moment, the entire army The steel army turned 180 degrees, and then rushed towards its goal again, the goal worth destroying.

At the same time, in front of the plantation wall, the extremely shocking chariot blinked, and his incredible eyes moved with his eyes. He seemed to want to see clearly what was happening in front of him, but what caught his eyes was that the wind had begun to blow. The scattered wreckage of the suppression team... was more like dust than wreckage. The fine silver mist fell to the ground and turned into tiny grains of iron sand.

What just happened? The old man saw almost nothing clearly. He just saw a small team of hunter-killer troops in the distance coming to exterminate himself and others. At that time, Chariot had almost given up on calling Joshua to escape with him, and instead planned to join the invisible and The two of them left invisibly early... But what happened next was completely beyond his imagination.

The ferocious heavy-duty puppets equipped with inert metal moved forward with footsteps that shook the earth. They were difficult enemies that the old man could hardly destroy quickly even with his full strength. There were more than twenty of these enemies as soon as they arrived, followed by twice as many. For its long-range attackers, this number is considered a surefire kill for ordinary superpowers. Even if most superpowers run out of energy, it is absolutely impossible to defeat these highly targeted enemies.

However, facing such a difficult enemy... the burly puppet floating in the sky just clenched its fist slightly, causing a burst of silver light to erupt from the spinning steel wheel behind it, and wiped out all the attacking enemies.

What kind of ability is this? The chariot had never been seen before, and before he could even see it clearly, the enemy had completely disappeared, with no wreckage left. He raised his head in fear and looked at the figure floating in the sky, but soon, he discovered that The huge puppet and the black-haired boy on his shoulders were rising rapidly. He had already reached a thousand meters altitude and was still rising rapidly. The old man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and looked down at the ground.

Suddenly, Chariot took a breath of cold air, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, almost falling to the ground.

In the distance, the puppets stepped forward, and the 'thunder' that shook the earth became louder and louder. A silver steel cloud was rushing towards the plantation at an extremely firm and exaggerated speed. The wind howled, and a wave of puppets could be seen rising from the formation of the army. Layers of semicircular cyan energy shields merged and resonated with each other, finally forming a translucent force field shield that seemed to be substantial.

Chariot watched this scene, and he couldn't help but think of the last decisive battle with the puppet army ten years ago... In the valley basin in the western part of the Sibiya continent, more than seventy powerful superpowers led their own The team was facing an army of hunters in a mountainous area with complex terrain. It seemed to be the same at that time. Silver clouds were rolling on the ground, and a blue energy shield that had never been seen before was raised, withstanding the madness of countless superpowers. Bombing indiscriminately, the heavy puppets equipped with inert energy armor and almost ignoring low-level superpowers rushed into the formation while everyone was shocked, brandishing ferocious weapons, and started a massacre.

Since then, the rebels have never had a direct conflict with the Predator army.

Was he trying to escape... Well, such a powerful person shouldn't die in this situation. At this time, the chariot could no longer see Joshua's figure. The turbid high altitude was shrouded in dust. Even the most advanced optical instruments could not penetrate this density of dust and mist, let alone the human eye.

However, just as the old man was being dragged away by the invisible force and explosions with an emotion he didn't know whether it was relief or disappointment, suddenly, a burst of continuous thunder suddenly came from high in the turbid sky.

Not only the chariot, but even the two superpowers who were anxious to escape and hide couldn't help but raise their heads and look to the sky where they couldn't see clearly.

Not far away, the core puppet that was marching rapidly with the army also raised its head, the observation lens focused, and it also stared at the sky.

Then, they saw—layers of deep darkness suddenly emerged from the sky high in the sky that should have been covered by countless dust and gravel, and could never be seen clearly—a cold, moist atmosphere spread rapidly, almost in an instant. , the world around him seemed to have changed, as if he had been dragged into another world.

"Is this...an illusion?"

He shook the arms of the two people who had also stopped beside him, and the chariot raised its head. In his eyes, dense black spots suddenly appeared in the sky, almost covering the entire sky.

Thousands of sudden clouds of water mist appeared out of thin air in the dry high sky, and then spread into clouds amid the thunder and explosions.

The violent wind blew violently, and the suffocating black clouds spread in the high sky like ink dripping from water. They covered most of the world in almost a few moments, and almost endless water vapor spread in the strong wind. Rolling over and accumulating, they spread rapidly, covering all the sky within sight, and then swallowed up the setting sun!

The sky and the earth completely darkened, and then, high in the sky, the tall figure standing among the clouds and thunder raised his right hand, and power that could not be described in words burst out from the puppet's rotating disk - at this time, the silver The gem dimmed, the cyan gem lit up, and his right hand fell heavily, then the sky thundered and lightning flashed, and torrential rain poured down!

Snap.

Dirty water droplets fell on the glass mirror of the core puppet's observation device, and the wiper swept over it to ensure that the observation mirror surface was clear.

But after the first drop of water fell, there was lightning and thunder, and endless rainstorms fell. The gloomy atmosphere spread. The rain that came from nowhere mixed with the dust in the air, covering the entire land. It could almost be called It is the rain of muddy water that washes the heaven and earth, soaking everything in it and covering it within oneself. The rain turned the surface of the ground into mud, and countless areas that could have been walked on turned into swamps. The majestic puppet army was suddenly stagnant. Most of the overly heavy assault puppets were stuck in the mud and could hardly move.

According to the weather forecast in the garden, the next rainfall should be in thirteen days.

In the panic of the army of puppets, such a stream of information flashed through the soul core of the core puppet. It had never encountered such a situation. Even the machine felt confused: "The weather has changed, why."

"It can't be a superpower... How can a superpower change the sky?!"

On the ground, whether it was a chariot, invisible or explosive, the three superpowers of the resistance were stunned - if they had turned the enemy into ashes instantly and were barely within their range of cognition, then what a change. The celestial phenomena on earth were completely beyond their imagination!

Among the Siberian resistance forces, there once appeared a powerful superpower who could control sandstorms. He could single-handedly block the impact of the hunter army and provide others with sufficient time to retreat... But that set off a wave that could at most cover a plantation. How can the power of sandstorms be compared with the changes in celestial phenomena that create dark clouds out of thin air and drop endless torrential rain on the entire horizon? In the entire hundred years of the resistance, there has never been a superpower with such abilities and energy levels!

Boom!

But the reality did not leave anyone time to react. Along with the roar, more than a dozen cyan lightnings brewed between the friction of the clouds, and then crashed to the ground. An explosion appeared in the army of hunters. The thunder evaporated the water vapor, and the The rain turned into white mist, and the overly condensed violent current mixed with the high heat that melted everything instantly penetrated the energy shield and destroyed dozens of puppets.

The rain fell like arrows, and trillions of water droplets were stretched into lines in the air, turning into sharp spikes. In the sky, the roaring thunder continued, and the lightning struck continuously. One after another, blue thunder light fell down, like a lightning storm. The whipping of the atmosphere and the ground seemed to make the whole world shake violently.

"Whoa--whoa!"

The core puppet, which was helping other puppets escape from the mud swamp, suddenly sensed an extremely urgent alarm. In the soul radar, it noticed an extremely bright light spot in the sky, which was falling rapidly from an altitude of several thousand meters. The speed is far faster than all puppets, and even faster than some bullets.

"High energy reaction detected!"

"High-powered superpowers are approaching quickly and are ready to attack!"

"Start attacking!" the core puppet ordered decisively.

As a result, among the puppet army, several strange-looking soul puppets stepped forward. They almost no longer had human shapes, and their entire bodies were like a giant honeycomb. And now, white lights lit up in the cells of the honeycomb. After a few seconds, , thousands of head-sized energy light groups burst out from the hive at the same time, and then turned into a series of light particles, speeding towards the bright and huge light spot in the radar!

But it was of no use - just as those self-guided supersonic light particles quickly approached the light spot, a strange wave swept across, and all the light particles exploded directly in mid-air, and the majestic energy dispersed the rain. , temporarily creating a blank area in the atmosphere.

But at this moment, the core puppet discovered that the light spot in the soul radar was not falling in a straight line... His orbit in mid-air tilted slightly, and then, just like this, he rushed straight towards the main formation of the entire soul puppet king. go-

Bang Bang Bang—Due to heavy rain, all ray generators were temporarily unavailable, so the suppression puppets took out their spare physical ammunition and firearms and began to intercept the high-speed objects. The shooting accuracy of these puppet bodies was so high that it was almost as good as Any skilled soldier can fire a salvo of thousands of weapons that can be called anti-aircraft machine guns, creating layer after layer of fine firepower nets in the sky with almost no loopholes.

But it made no sense. The bright light spot in the soul radar ignored all interception firepower. It broke through the atmosphere and even continued to accelerate and get closer.

"Distance 2500, distance 1790, distance 430... prepare for impact!"

The core puppet used electromagnetic soul fluctuations to control the entire puppet army to respond, but it was already too late.

Bang——Boom!

As if a meteorite hit the ground, an extremely violent explosion occurred in front of the hunter army. The violent shock wave shook the rain and the atmosphere, making the air boil and the storm turbulent.

And right in the center of the explosion, a huge mechanical body that had never appeared in this world stepped out of the high-heat steam cloud and appeared in front of the puppets.

"This is super power... no, the power of steel."

The floating ring slowly rotated behind him, and the six-color gemstones of silver, green, red, black, gold, and white rotated. Joshua clenched his right fist. At this time, the silver and cyan fragments had dimmed, and the white steel fragments shone brightly.

In front of him were thousands of soul puppets that were waiting and fully armed.

"Not bad."

At the beginning of the month, please give me a monthly pass.
