Chapter 117: Narrating the Cage (Fourteen)
The first wave of attacks was carried out by more than twenty hyenas, wolves, and leopards, animals infected by the iron plague. They were more like specialized animals than wild beasts. Biological weapons.
The original fangs and claws were replaced by serrated blades, and the heart was replaced by a high-torque small engine to provide continuous power to the body.
The hydraulic pressure and connecting rod structure at the joints greatly enhance the strength and jumping performance. The mechanical prosthetic eyes in the eye sockets can clearly lock fast-moving hostile targets in dark and chaotic environments.
On the back, there is also a minigun or other heavy firepower installed.
Kakakaka——
The infected bodies jumped back and forth on the inner wall of the cabin, using their claws to peel away the power armor of the Zero soldiers at a dizzying speed, and then swung their tails to penetrate the gaps in the armor splices.
Blood spattered and screams echoed through the cabin. The injured soldiers opened fire blindly and instinctively. Bullets from the Gauss rifle flew everywhere, making holes in the inner wall of the cabin.
The first wave of attacks was just an appetizer. Through the window, one could see several large pterosaur-shaped infected bodies that were as big as fighter jets, following closely on the side of the transport plane in a flying companion manner.
Zhengzheng!
The side of the belly of the pterosaur infected body opened, revealing the smoothbore gun barrel, and fired more steel cones towards the transport aircraft. All steel cones are like transportation pipelines, delivering more small infected bodies to further create chaos.
Li Sheng pulled out the 170 straight knife and held it up in front of him to block the flying bullets. He calmly observed the situation inside the cabin and looked for the potential engine room
The red button.
The Iron Plague Creature clearly had firearms mounted on its body, but none of them were used. It was obvious that it did not want the cabin to disintegrate. Some of the infected bodies dragged the surrounding human soldiers, while the rest of the infected bodies rushed towards the sealed lead barrels containing super-heavy elements in the armored vehicle.
The so-called superheavy elements refer to elements with nuclei with atomic numbers above 104. Generally speaking, the heavier the element, the greater the instability of the nucleus, so superheavy nuclei have a great tendency to decay.
But in some cases, such as when the nuclei in the nucleus are arranged in a specific way and the number of protons or neutrons is just enough to fill a certain shell, the element can remain stable. Just like a bookshelf will tilt if there are not many books on it, filling it with all the books will keep it stable.
If the elements that exist stably are compared to land and the elements that cannot exist stably are compared to the boundless ocean, then overweight stable elements, like isolated islands offshore, may contain subversive scientific discoveries.
In the real world on Earth, super-heavy stable elements are just a scientific fantasy and prediction. But here, it has become a reality. It is regarded as an extremely important strategic resource by both warring parties.
Tear apart!
The only tall soldier wearing a red helmet in the cabin casually took off an iron plague beast from his comrade and tore it into two pieces with just his hands.
Then he held the Gauss rifle, aimed and fired continuously as fast as an afterimage. Without damaging the cabin, he accurately killed dozens of iron plague-infected bodies that were rushing towards the super-heavy element lead barrel.
Such a provocative behavior naturally attracted the attention of the iron plague beast. A large number of infected bodies jumped on the inner wall of the cabin and pounced on the red-helmeted soldiers.
The latter put down his rifle, took out a long red sword from his back, chopped, slashed, stabbed, and swept through. With amazing killing skills, he killed through most of the cabin.
‘Damn, what a handsome knife worker. ’
Li Sheng sighed in his heart, pulled out the bat grapple gun, and pulled the trigger forward. The metal hook flew out and penetrated an iron plague-infected body hanging from the top of the cabin, intending to attack the red helmet. He dragged it back, pressed it down with one foot on the ground, and swung the rusty machete to complete the beheading.
呲呲岲——
The neck section of the Iron Plague infected person spurted out a large amount of black liquid mixed with blood and engine oil, and the smell was fishy and pungent.
Hearing the movement behind him, the red-helmeted soldier turned slightly to the side, nodded to Li Sheng, and threw himself into the fight again.
The goal of the Iron Plague infected body is not to kill as many humans as possible, but to snatch those barrels of super-heavy elements. It deliberately does not use heavy firepower to prevent the transport plane from disintegrating, causing the human race to die and blow up the plane.
The soldiers of the Zero Civilization were clearly aware of this, and they did not dare to shoot at will. Instead, they used power armor gloves and fist blades to engage in brutal close combat at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
"Button. Button"
Walking through the cabin, looking for the red engine room button, Hui Yu didn't want to get involved in the battle between the two sides. He only took action when necessary, using cold weapons hanging on the wall to hack at the infected. body while avoiding being splashed by the latter's black blood.
Boom!
A loud noise came from outside the cabin again. The third engine of the transport plane also failed and stalled. Black smoke billowed out, and the entire plane began to bump and shake violently.
If the fourth engine is also destroyed, the only possibility is that the plane will crash.
"Hold on!"
The red-helmeted soldier shouted, pulling down a lever with a warning label in the cabin, and the tail of the transport plane opened in response.
The wind roared fiercely, and some iron plague beasts that could not stand were blown away by the strong wind and disappeared into the misty clouds.
Red Helmet removed a steel cable for loading and unloading cargo, hooked it on his belt, then picked up a laser sniper rifle, rushed out of the cabin resolutely, braved the strong wind at high altitude, and walked along the plane Climb up on the outside of your body.
Finally found a good position, set up a gun and fired at a giant pterosaur.
The gun fired a high-energy laser beam, which penetrated the pterosaur's tail. Compared to the latter's huge body, it was like using a needle to poke a small hole in the paper.
But here is an altitude of 10,000 meters. The tail of the high-speed flying pterosaur was destroyed, its attitude suddenly changed, its speed suddenly slowed down, and it was pulled away in the blink of an eye, falling far behind.
The steel cone transport pipe shot by the pterosaur also broke in response.
"The first one."
The red-helmeted soldier showed neither sadness nor joy, and moved his laser rifle to target the second giant pterosaur.
It has to be said that the Iron Plague infected bodies are a group of natural biological weapons. The iron plague beasts in the cabin climbed out one after another, lowered their bodies to reduce air resistance, and then drove the minigun on their backs to pour firepower on the red helmet.
Forcing the latter to separate his mind and barely escape.
"The button may be in the cockpit! You press the button, and I'll help him!"
Li Sheng shouted to Hui Yu, and he followed suit and tied a steel cable around his waist , and then used the displacement special effects of the bat grapple gun to rush out of the cabin and climb onto the outside of the fuselage.
The left hand releases the Death Curse Torrent, spraying a high-pressure water jet at the Iron Plague creature, knocking it down and flying. The right hand pulls the trigger of the rifle one after another to suppress it with strafing fire. Buying time for the Red Helmets.
The red helmet understood and handed his back to Li Sheng with confidence. He lay on the fuselage, set up the laser rifle, and fired at the second and third giant pterosaurs.
As the pterosaurs were eliminated, the steel cone pipe finally stopped transporting small infected bodies, and the situation inside the cabin gradually came under control.
The few remaining Iron Plague beasts, seeing that nothing could be done, immediately overloaded the engine heart, trying to detonate themselves and blow up the aircraft, at least to prevent the super-heavy elements from falling into human hands.
Fortunately, Red Helmet and Li Sheng had returned at this time. The former swung his sword to kill, and the latter slashed them one by one, taking all the iron plague beasts off the plane.
This high-altitude battle sounds thrilling, but in fact it only takes a few minutes. Of the original more than a hundred soldiers, only twenty or thirty were left. The survivors leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
The floor of the cabin was covered with stumps and broken arms. Human blood was mixed with the engine oil leaking from the infected bodies, and the smell was astounding.
“.”
The red-helmeted soldier silently stepped forward and gently helped a comrade from the bed of the armored vehicle.
This female soldier with the word Angelina engraved on her breastplate had just stood on the car and struggled to prevent the iron plague beast from snatching the super-heavy elements. She successfully protected all the lead barrels, but her whole body was also infected. Cut off at the waist, the internal organs and intestines flowed all over the floor.
"Ahem——"
Angelina lay in the arms of the red-helmeted soldier, spraying blood from her mouth. She weakly held up a photo with her palm and stuffed it into the other person's hand, trying to say something. What.
Before she finished speaking, the light of life in her eyes dissipated like a candle in the wind. The red-helmeted soldier stared silently at the photo, which showed a young mother and daughter.
"Li Sheng, I found the button!"
Hui Yu's excited voice came from the front of the cabin. She pried open the cab door, and the red button was lying on it. On the operating table.
As for the two pilots, they each had a steel thorn pierced through their chests, corresponding to the breach in the windshield of the cab. It was obvious that they had been dealt with early by the iron plague creature.
Due to the death of the pilot, the entire transport plane gradually tilted downwards, dived and glided, and fell towards the clouds.
"Don't press it yet."
Li Sheng took a deep breath, ignoring the doubtful looks of the other Zero soldiers in the cabin, turned to look at the red helmet, and asked tentatively: "Can you "Do you want to take off your helmet?"
Unlike others, there is no name engraved on the breastplate of the red helmet.
He was silent for a moment, lowered his weapon, and took off his helmet with a click with both hands.
It was a frosty woman with long gray hair. The outline of her skull was exactly the same as Isaac's. Her beautiful and cold face was very similar to Hui Yu.
Li Sheng's eyelids twitched and asked: "Your name, is Isaac?"
"Aisha."
A woman named Aisha took the initiative to correct her , and at the end of the cabin, Hui Yu, who couldn't wait, had already pressed the red button.
The scene in front of them changed instantly. Li Sheng and Hui Yu appeared in the empty engine room. Only the power armor shells they were wearing and the blood splattered on them could prove that they had indeed left just now.
"Quick! All the buttons in the five engine rooms have been pressed. Go to the warden's room quickly!"
Seeing that the jailbreak was about to be successful, Hui Yu excitedly recovered all the liquid metal and clenched his fists , rushed out of the engine room first.
Li Sheng followed behind and said slowly: "The red-helmeted soldier in the transport plane looks just like you, but more mature. She calls herself Aisha."
"Yeah ?”
Hui Yu was stunned when he heard this, but his body still followed his instinct and continued running, "Aisha, Isaac, are these two the same person? Forget it, as long as you can escape, it doesn't matter what happens. As for looks... maybe It’s because I lost my memory and I thought the face I saw when I escaped from prison was my own face.”
She turned the door handle of the warden’s room, and the wooden door that had been closed before finally opened.
The room is brightly lit, and the four walls of the square room are all filled with a small TV set by Taiwan Pi Shuai. Each TV plays the previous experiences of Li Sheng and Hui Yu in the narrative cage. picture. There is a coffee table in the middle of the room.
The warden is sitting behind the coffee table. He is not a human being, but a complex device composed of hundreds or thousands of mechanical eyes. There is a red eyeball embedded in the middle, and a [code] hanging on his chest. Warden] plate to prove his identity.
“Welcome you two!”
The warden didn't speak (he didn't seem to have a vocal organ), but the televisions on the four walls made a sound similar to an electronic synthesizer, "Congratulations, you are the one who has come closest to successfully escaping from prison in the past three months. Group of prisoners."
"."
Li Sheng remained silent, looking left and right, sizing up his surroundings. Huiyu didn't have that patience and said quickly: "We pressed five engine room buttons in a row. According to the agreement, it's time for us to leave the Narrative Prison!"
"Don't be impatient, young man. "
The warden's mechanical eyeballs moved slightly and motioned for Li Sheng and the two to sit down. "Unfortunately, although you have successfully completed the jailbreak process, I still can't let you go."
"What?!"
Huiyu Liuliu's eyebrows were raised, and he was so angry that he slapped his hand on the wooden coffee table, "What do you mean? You're just kidding, right?!"
"Believe me , if the decision is up to me, I will honestly follow the rules and let you escape - this is the principle and purpose of describing the prison."
The warden said unhurriedly: "You broke through five times in a row. You must have noticed a pattern in the engine room, right? All rooms are related to Isaac.
Isaac is Isaac, and Aisha is Isaac.”
The warden said: "She was originally a mechanical soldier produced by the Zero Civilization. She performed well in the Iron Plague War. After fighting for ten years, she accumulated enough military merit points and retired with the rank of colonel.
It was just that something unexpected happened in the middle, causing her to defect to the Zero Civilization and become the interstellar pirate Isaac.
As for the unexpected content"
He paused and looked at Li Sheng, " You should already know.”
“Yes.”
Li Sheng slowly took out the clues, four newspapers, [Unknown virus broke out on Swan B], [Food poisoning cases occurred in schools in Proxima A District], [Terrorists detonated nuclear bombs in Proxima A District], [Navy Special Warfare The team blew up the key node of the Iron Plague lair】
A children's painting, Anna and her mother.
After sorting out all the clues, Li Sheng said: "Taking the Iron Plague War as the timeline, [the unknown virus broke out on Planet Swan B], the virus here refers to the Iron Plague.
Isaac joined the army as a mechanical soldier and completed the content in this newspaper, [Naval Special Forces Team Destroyed Key Nodes of the Iron Plague Nest], which is the plot that took place in the continuity engine room."
