Chapter 1262: Have you gone fishing?
In the void, the shock wave is an almost negligible element. After all, there is no air. Unless you are relatively close to the explosion site, the material vaporized by the high temperature will hit your face. Otherwise, it will not matter.
But it's different when it falls on a planet. Even a dwarf planet with only one-eighth of the standard gravity, although it is very thin, still has an atmosphere.
Alyssa seemed to have been grabbed by her feet and pulled hard, and she lay on the ice on the spot.
Except for Fang Lanyin, who was in the cab checking the vehicle, everyone was no better. After falling onto the ice, everyone felt dizzy.
Alyssa tried desperately to get up, knowing that now was not the time to lie down.
There will be artillery shells falling nearby, either because they noticed the lights on their protective suits, or it was stray bullets.
If the former is the case, there will probably be saturation bombing soon, but the latter...
It's not good news. Since the stray bullets hit, it means that the battle line is moving towards their location.
Shaking her head vigorously, trying to wake herself up, Alyssa shouted to Fang Lanyin who was busy in the cockpit:
"What do you need? We need to fix it ASAP!"
"There should be something wrong with the mechanism that compresses magic power. I have a solution. You try to move the rocks away."
When it comes to commanding battleships in combat, Fang Lanyin knows nothing about it, but when it comes to machinery-related matters, then this is her expertise.
Fang Lanyin immediately jumped out of the car, pulled out the spare tool box from under the driver's seat, and ran towards the other car with the wrench in hand.
Probably dismantling other cars to repair this one.
Alyssa and the others, who had been hit by the shock wave, felt better now, and regardless of their dizzy heads, they quickly moved away the stones blocking the road.
Fang Lanyin moved very quickly, and she didn't know if it was because of adrenaline. She quickly removed the hood of another car like magic, and unplugged a lot of pipes in three clicks. , then reached in with a tool and pulled out a part the size of a can.
At this time, Alyssa and the others had almost moved away the stones blocking the wheels. Fang Lanyin quickly ran back, replaced the parts and got into the cockpit.
"Come on, come on, I know you can do it!"
She turned the key over and over again, and the engine made a wheezing sound like an asthma attack but would not start.
At this time, as long as everyone turned their heads, they could see the warships that were firing and descending under various searchlights. Obviously, they must be from the Glow Ion Monastery, and they were getting closer and closer to them.
"Move! You piece of rags!"
He knocked hard on the dashboard, and he didn't know if he hit something. The out-of-breath engine suddenly buzzed and started successfully.
"Get in the car quickly, don't turn on the lights and don't attract attention!"
Alyssa asked everyone to get in the car quickly, and Eunice also said:
"necklace……"
"There's no time to worry about it now. We'll talk about it after we get back to the Swan."
The Glow Ion Monastery acted as if they were going to catch and destroy whoever they wanted, and they really had no time to chase after the True Ancestor's necklace.
When Alyssa, who was the last to come up, closed the door, Fang Lanyin stepped on the accelerator. With the scream of the engine, the car used its own strength to pull out the suppressed part of the rear section.
I should really be grateful that it is a cargo truck, as the torque is so high.
According to Alyssa, Fang Lanyin did not dare to turn on the lights. Although it was dim, the shelling and firelight could barely see, and the cockpit was extremely open, so wide that the windshield was gone...
Maybe the front of the car was hit when the garage collapsed, pushing the windshield out of the groove. There was also something wrong with the axle. From a distance, the car looked like it was lame and splayed, running forward crookedly. The shape of this truck is somewhat like a big golden cup. Fang Lanyin has driven a similar truck before, but this truck has been severely modified.
The carriage was covered with a layer of bulletproof armor and had shooting holes reserved, just like an armed escort vehicle.
"Which way?"
"Anyway, let's move away from the battleship first and see if there's any chance of going around to our parking bay."
The place where the Swan is parked is still far away from here, and if you go in a straight line, you will definitely encounter the battleship of the Glow Ion Monastery.
If the bulletproof armor plate of a broken car collides with the cannon of a battleship, it looks like it will lead to self-destruction, so we have to go around it.
"There is a shuttle approaching at eight o'clock!"
Long in the rear car reminded her, and Alyssa immediately saw a blurry engine light piercing the darkness through the rearview mirror, approaching in their direction.
It's damn rainy, and this vehicle can't withstand the shuttle's cannon and ion beam.
Alyssa hoped that the shuttle was not coming towards them, but soon, she saw a flash of light in front of the engine light:
"The ion beam is coming! Dodge!"
Fang Lanyin turned sharply, and two blazing ion beams hit the ice. One of them was so close that the armor plate on one side of the car showed signs of melting.
This kind of bulletproof armor plate is mainly made to resist light weapons standards, and it will certainly not be able to block the shuttle's airborne weapons.
The speed of the shuttle was much faster than that of the car, and the opponent's pilot was probably afraid that if he continued to 'lick the ground', he would accidentally hit the ground. As a few short cannon shots were fired, the shuttle flew over the roof of the car with a roar.
This time the distance was closer, and the shuttle's own navigation lights were also turned on. Everyone could see more clearly that the shuttle looked almost the same as the Manta.
The Manta Ray was found from the ruins of the Creation Cult, and the Glow Ion Monastery is a branch of the Creation Cult that survives to this day. Of course, it will be very similar.
There is no need to consider this, he must be someone from the Glow Ion Monastery.
The shuttle flew over the roof of the car, and the engine light seemed to be gradually disappearing into the darkness.
But everyone knew that they were not far away, but that they had to turn around because they were going too fast and exceeded the target.
Sure enough, the blurry engine light gradually became clear again, and the opponent started diving again. The difference was that before it was from the rear, this time it was from the front.
Even an armored vehicle with a real machine gun would have a hard time matching the shuttle, not to mention that what Alyssa and the others were driving was just an armed escort vehicle.
And the car doesn't go very fast.
It has nothing to do with the state of the vehicle. It itself cannot run fast.
The dwarf planet where the Deep Diving Demon is located has only one-eighth of the standard gravity. In order for the vehicle to drive stably, it must be heavier and have stronger grip.
Moreover, they are transporting high-value goods, so the speed must not be fast. If something is damaged, they cannot afford to send the escort to feed the fish.
Therefore, the top speed of this car is only 30 miles per hour, and due to its current poor condition, it cannot reach the top speed.
Alyssa and Fang Lanyin, who were sitting in the cockpit, stopped looking at the road and stared at the approaching engine light above. They had to orient themselves at the moment of launching the attack to have a chance to dodge.
However, at this critical moment, Li Chengqi suddenly said on the communication channel:
"Ah? You haven't rendezvoused with the Swan yet?"
That tone seemed to be asking, have you gone fishing...
