Chapter 427 Walking in the Rain
The Iron Soldier is an armored robot. It may not be agile enough compared to humans, but its powerful power allows it to carry enough weapons and hard enough armor to protect it from most attacks. Small arms and explosion damage.
Atlas also needs similar armed units. Even in Night City, with such a great reputation, Lille has to ensure that it will not be blackmailed.
Adecado also needs these things to run the line.
“Big brother!” Joestar drove a minivan and chased behind Mackinac, sticking his head out and shouting at Lear, “We’re at Nos. 20-56 Ellen Street ahead!”
When we got here, there were far fewer people and there were no more prostitutes.
Because there are more and more dark corners, the advancement of the encirclement has become much slower, and people can also realize that there is an unusual atmosphere in the air
Especially because there are fewer and fewer cars here. , although Mackinac was simply covered with a shell, if you look carefully you can still see what the people inside are doing.
呲——
In the rear cargo compartment, Jack’s ears kept hearing the soft sound of welding, the collision of armor fitting together, and the hum of gears and motors operating in unison.
The dazzling light of lights and welding flashed alternately in front of my eyes, watching the pieces of armor fit together, one power system after another coming online, the lizard serum in the heart being injected more, and the power rising
It was completely a boy's dream come true. .
[Name: XS-1 Powered Exoskeleton (Half Frame)]
[Description: After a long period of research and practice, the strength of graphene-alloy composite materials as structural parts has been Proven reliable.
We have also successfully reversed the armor-piercing alloy used in the Scorpion suit and achieved mass production. This is a very expensive but very versatile super-carbide alloy.
The XS-1 powered exoskeleton upgrades the overall structure of the exoskeleton to a new level, with a more stable frame, stronger power, larger size and weapon compatibility.
But there is a problem: in order to ensure that the user's consciousness will not be distorted by this powerful force, we'd better provide users with more complete training, or let them use the latest version of the second-generation meaning. body. 】
【Note: This prototype version is a semi-frame structure adapted to the use of Jack's prosthetic body. Part of the energy will come from the lizard rage component, and the upper body weapons have no weapon interfaces. 】
[Functions: Active defense system, power engine ammunition supply structure]
"Mano, tell me honestly, did you really rub this thing with your own hands?"
Click - click.
The torque wrench protruding from the center of the octopus arm protrudes from the gap, and the other octopus arm covers it with force, and the lock retracts.
The last module is installed.
Bang bang.
"What else? Aren't you awake?" Lear pretended to be curious and tapped Jack's single transparent helmet with his octopus arm. "What, are you sick? Can't believe it?"
< br>
"mano, I don't know how to describe this feeling."
Liel smiled, and the two octopus arms opened the final safety lock. The entire body, including the weight of the burning knuckles, was completely under the action of gravity. Release——
Jack felt the feeling of using Lizard Rage for the first time for a long time!
That feeling of power gushing out from your heart and flowing to your limbs!
The Searing Knuckle Gloves, which used to be slightly heavy and inflexible, suddenly became light, and his lower body no longer had that shaky feeling, allowing him to
Punch like a boxer again instead of flying up and giving someone an elbow.
Huh——
Jack punched hard, and the front of Mackinac's car suddenly tilted up. Fortunately, V pulled the handbrake in time
Bang.
“You two are having trouble in the back!” V stuck his head out of the window and patted the car door angrily.
"Accident! Accident!" Jack tilted his head, then turned back and smiled at Lear, "mano"
Jack suddenly stopped -
The car just passed by In a building, the NCPD police were still searching floor by floor. Jack, who had just activated the enemy detection function in his helmet, saw someone on the floor raising a rocket launcher and a sniper rifle.
The target was them! Call——
In the dark neighborhood, the gastritis of the bazooka was like a small sun, completely covering up the street lights whose tail flames flickered on and off, and the bullets were hidden in them!
Jack's joy in having just put on the armor was overshadowed by his eagerness: he is in the armor, Lear is not!
No matter how powerful your brain is, one shot will make it explode like a watermelon!
[Active Defense Enabled]
A line of small words popped up in the HUD in front of Jack's eyes, but he didn't notice it at all.
Several small holes in the armed backpack on the armor's back were opened, and some kind of fast and small explosives were fired out!
Jack stepped forward to protect Lear, but it was still too slow compared to bullets
Boom!
These explosive bombs ejected from the warehouse exploded simultaneously at high altitudes. The shock wave and flames formed a circular explosion curtain. The shock wave seemed to have formed an invisible wall!
The first wall blocked the bullets that were about to hit Lear and the car. The shock wave exerted lateral momentum on the bullets, and the bullets passed by the two of them along with the fragments!
The second wave of explosions followed, completely detonating the rocket at a higher altitude!
Bang!
The front of Mackinac's car suddenly tilted up and then hit the ground.
Under the firelight, Octopus Arm patted Jack's shoulder.
“You have to get out of the car now—do what you do best.”
Jack understood, bent his legs, gathered strength, and stared straight at the smoke screen that was gradually dissipating.
Boom!
The two-meter-high giant armor took off, and the jet turbofans on its elbows and two calves worked together. It jumped five meters high in front of everyone's horrified eyes, and punched into the building!
However, Mackinac's foot was not so lucky. This kick directly broke the entire car's chassis, and the front of the car tilted up and did not come down again.
“Grass!” V patted the steering wheel hard——
Obviously it can't be opened!
“Ah!!”
Bang!
A scavenger was thrown out of the building and hit the wall of the building opposite. The huge force made him "stick" to the wall!
“Monster, what a fool!”
The screams and tragic scenes suddenly alerted people!
Shuttering exclamations came from the dark corners, bullets and grenades were fired, and the battle was about to break out!
Barrages were fired from the unoccupied front. The octopus arms grabbed the broken Mackinaw car plate as a shield, and the two octopus arms were used as feet, and quickly arrived at the front of the car——
At this moment, V in the car had just pulled out his gun and was thinking about how to run away.
Lille opened the door: "Get out of the car quickly!"
"You have some conscience."
V suddenly laughed for some reason, pointed the muzzle of the gun at the enemy, and hung one hand on Leer's shoulder——
Trigger pull Moving, V suddenly had some wonderful thoughts in his head:
I heard that the drivers of rich people would hold umbrellas for them when they got off the car
I was not beaten when it rained. I’ve held an umbrella, but is this how it feels?
The rain of bullets in the sky is like the never-ending rain in the Night City, crackling on the iron plate, the explosion blooms like fireworks, and the reflection of the scope flashes like crystal in the rain
A row of bullets Shooting out from between the gaps in the shield, the two scavengers who were about to pull the grenade ring fell down at the sound.
Jack reached out his hand from the building, and the huge glove grabbed the wall under the influence of magnetism. With a strong force, the huge armor climbed up, and a large pile of concrete was pulled down and hit another unlucky guy. head on.
NCPD, Mox and the people in the alley were shooting wildly. This kind of shooting used to last for a long time
But this time, the three guys who were flying through the rain of bullets quickly advancing the front line.
The never-ending rain of bullets on the streets of Night City, the never-ending rain of bullets on the streets of Night City, explosions, smashed limbs and corpses, the giant cybernetics violently demolishing buildings
Two people walking in the rain .
V hanging on Lille suddenly whispered: "This is the first time someone has held an umbrella for me."
The voice was just enough to be covered by the sound of rain.
