Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

"The parking time is 5 minutes. Passengers who do not get off at this stop please do not leave the carriage..."

Zhuang Xuteng would not be commanded and influenced by the broadcast, he swaggered out of the carriage, took advantage of the crew not paying attention, turned over the carriage and came to the track, and then got under the carriage.He observed the surrounding environment at the fastest speed, found a relatively safe area based on the observation of the car structure at the training ground, hid in it, and moved towards the car connection.

The train started slowly and the noise began to increase. Zhuang Xuteng wanted to enjoy the feeling of traveling under the train.

At the same time, in the carriage, Nightingale slowly sat up straight and stared at her sister.She pointed to her head, indicating that the two should communicate with each other through radio waves.

"How much do you think he's telling the truth?" Nightingale asked, "He can alleviate the side effects of the Shadow Follower implant. Is this the secret of the Stranger's martial arts?"

"Sister, I don't know, I can't see it. After a while, my brain doesn't hurt at all, let me enjoy it? Using implants again, this will accumulate pain."

"This little side effect won't hurt you." Nightingale stared at Rock Sparrow, and said, "Cheer up! Ever since the brain implant was installed, our lives have been completely controlled by Steyer. Either he, Either you're begging for mercy from the company, it doesn't make any difference. Now with Nike, I see a way out."

"What? You want him to be our therapist? Sister, don't be stupid, we are comfortable now, but we haven't gone through a complete test, and we can't be sure that the side effects of the implant have been eliminated by him. All of this now, may just be A kind of placebo, a kind of hallucination, like a dream. The dream wakes up."

"If we go to test, the side effects will indeed disappear, what should I say?"

"Isn't that a dream come true?" The rock sparrow snorted, shook her head, and said, "Sister, Steyer will do everything possible to stop us, and won't let the two of us go. Don't you know his idea? The two of us will be trained as intelligence officers, and we will lend them to other intermediaries, and then let us steal the target's intelligence network from within, so as to win the intermediary war without fighting. In this case, let alone how to deal with Steyr , even if we can leave, who can pick us up? No middleman dares to take us."

"If you don't work as a mercenary from now on, will you accept it?"

"My living habits are acceptable, but our wallets can't accept it. You can't just think about good things." Rock Sparrow shook his head again, and said, "Nike is willing to help us this time, do you think he likes us? He may think that we The two are more beautiful, but they definitely don't look like men and women. He pays attention to keeping a distance, and everything he does is for this mission. Leaving this mission, leaving the beauty that can only be maintained in the past few years, Nai Why do you still help us?"

Nightingale thought about it, sighed, and had to agree with her sister. "I'm afraid that if we leave Steyr and Naike stops helping, we will be completely homeless. Without money, the accumulated side effects of these implants will definitely drive the two of us crazy."

"I'm also worried about this." The rock sparrow put her feet on the bed, hugged her legs with her hands, and leaned her head on her knees. "I hope this mission can get enough dividends to improve our financial situation. How much do we owe Steyer now?"

"Principal and interest add up to a total of 630 million euros."

"That's over, this time it's not over." Yanque tilted her head and looked at her sister, and said, "Sister, we must establish a good relationship with Naike this time, see what he likes, and give him some sweetness. Although we can't count on him, we can't have no hope, right?"

"That's what I mean too." Nightingale frowned and said, "Nike has this ability. Brother Dao is his senior brother, so his ability must be stronger. We must keep an eye on this pair of partners. In addition to building a good relationship, we must also See if anyone else is approaching. Let's divide the work, I will focus on Naike, and you will focus on Brother Dao."

"Uh... well. My job is not as good as yours. But we have to make one thing first: do you want to report to Steyr? He asked us to check everyone's skills, you didn't forget that something?"

"Don't be stupid, this matter must not be reported! Let's just think that Naike has not treated our old diseases. We pay attention to him because he is very attractive."

"Very attractive? Sister, are you serious? No one will believe this!"

"Steyr's character will be believed. Although he let us go out to do those junk jobs all day long, he is actually a very stingy guy. Give him this reason, and he won't think about it."

"At the moment, that's the only way to go." Nightingale nodded and said, "Let's just say that Naike's observation skills are very good, his mind is very flexible, and he seems to have some ability to cast shadow spells, but we don't know what it is. If Steyr expressed interest, so we gave way a little bit, saying that Naike looked at us badly and we should reduce contact with him. The more we say this, the more likely Steyr will send us to investigate.”

"You really figured out Steyr."

The two sisters took a deep breath, ended the communication conversation at the same time, and rubbed their temples like a mirror image.Rock Sparrow sighed, and said, "I didn't feel uncomfortable when I communicated before. How come the feeling has become more obvious today?"

"Probably due to the rare relaxation of the brain, the symptoms of side effects become apparent even if they are mild. Rest and relax, and wait for Naik to return."

Zhuang Xuteng didn't feel well under the train, mainly because the railway was in bad condition and bumped from time to time.There are shock springs under the carriage, but there is no such thing under the car.The surrounding metal parts are always trying to hit him, and the turbulent airflow is constantly adding to his troubles.

Because this attempt is to allow the two sisters Nightingale and Chaffinch to hide and move, so all actions must be based on the level of the two of them.Super-computing martial arts definitely cannot be used, and the implants in the legs cannot be used either. Zhuang Xuteng used a "stronger ordinary person" as a reference and moved carefully under the car.

Try to reduce the difficulty as much as possible, improve safety as much as possible, and be more considerate of others.Zhuang Xuteng climbed from the bottom of the carriage to the junction, turned around and climbed back again, in order to verify the various schemes of this route.

During the mission operation, the "treasure compartment" was between the dining car and the sleeping car. The connection method was different from the current one, and it had a larger space.Now the connecting part is covered with a hard canvas, completely blocking the top of his head.

Zhuang Xuteng tried a few times, shook his head and backed away. "The environment is different, there is no need to climb up hard, as long as you know that people can be hidden under the car in advance. Hmm... there is no need to ask the two of them to come down and try, there is no need to toss, and the adaptive training can be done when you go back—let The two of them should rest more."

The next stop was half an hour later, and Zhuang Xuteng stayed under the car for half an hour.Nightingale had fallen asleep when he returned, and the chipmunk showed great enthusiasm for going out with him.

"Rest, I've already figured it out, so I don't need to make a fuss about it."

Rock sparrow was very surprised, she thought that Naike would like to get under the car with her, and she could also take this opportunity to get close to Naike again.Zhuang Xuteng explained to her, saying that it is the best choice for them to take a good rest and recover their condition.

"It feels like you are more like the commander of the entrusted task." Rock sparrow curled her lips and said something from her heart.

Then they rest in the carriage until the train pulls in on time.Zhuang Xuteng recorded the arrival and departure time of each station. Even if there will be many stops on the day when the car is added, these times will definitely be helpful for the task.

Overall, the car is in good condition and more suitable for action.Zhuang Xuteng applied what he observed to the practice field, so that the training could be more realistic.Then there's the most critical part of the mission: takeoff.

The weight information of the carriages obtained from the train system is the most important achievement of this mission. Faced with this heavy number, both drivers scratched their heads.They discuss based on their own experience and think that the lift of the balloon must be increased.

"It is absolutely impossible to just make up for the missing weight. The cargo below is too heavy, and it is not enough to solve the gravity alone. It must provide enough surplus power for the maneuvering of the helicopter."

"How much more?" Steyr asked.

"It's best to provide a lift of [-] tons, as long as it's slightly less than the weight of the car, it's better not to let it float up." Grove stroked his eyebrows and said, "We calculated the volume of the balloon based on this lift requirement, and found that it can only With hydrogen, nothing else will work. Too big will seriously interfere with flight, and hydrogen is more dangerous, but it doesn't matter so much."

Muir brought the design drawing of the balloon and added: "The shell of the balloon should be as thin as possible. It would be great if we could use a special fabric. Hydrogen is too dangerous after all. I don't know if there is time..."

"Tell me what to use specifically, and I'll figure out a way." Steyr took the design drawing, asked some questions, and then hurried away with Nightingale and Rock Sparrow.

They continue to train.When they were separated, one group practiced the roof movement and equipment assembly, and the other group practiced low-altitude flight landing, fast fixing of the helicopter and load take-off.Another group is Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao. They are in charge of the situation in the carriage and rely entirely on adapting to the situation. There is nothing to practice at present, so they are in the state of "supervising work".

Only after Nightingale and Rock Sparrow came back, Zhuang Xuteng would be able to use his skills: to guide the two people to move under the carriage.Zhuang Xuteng found that he had prepared too much. Both girls had arm implants, which allowed them to move flexibly in narrow spaces with the strength of their shoulders and fingers.Their practice progress was much faster than expected, and they quickly became familiar with the movements, so Zhuang Xuteng was "unemployed" again.

Practice, practice, practice to minimize time to action while increasing proficiency.The Kent trio was the busiest. They had to move above the carriages, carrying the wind resistance to move the equipment over, and had to jump over 7 carriages in total.Currently they need to make six round trips to get the balloon, tubing and all connected equipment there, but they aim to reduce that to four, which would save a lot of time.

Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao also participated in training with them and thinking about how to save movements.The largest number of items to be transported were balloons, the heaviest were the chains connecting the helicopter to the carriages, and the largest piece of equipment was the valve bifurcation tubes that inflate multiple balloons.

In addition to the number and weight of equipment, the attitude of the train will also affect the task.Since some of the pipes are left on the roof, it is necessary to allow for the difference in inner and outer diameters when the train turns.At the same time, in order to prevent the pipes from rolling off the edge of the roof-the roof is a central vault with slopes on both sides-there is not much left over.After they experimented many times, Wien suggested to use some climbing equipment, make hooks on the top edge of the carriage, and block a column of pipes that may slip.

"In this way, the number of equipment is increased, so we need to make another trip?" Ge Gongdao asked.

"We can adjust the work order a little bit." Prince patiently explained to Ge Gongdao: "First transport the balloon equipment, two people stay behind for installation, and one person makes an extra trip to install these hooks. Wait for the balloon After the basic installation is completed, leave one person for finishing inspection, and let two people come back first. Two strong men are enough to take the pipes and valves. Because of the hooks, the difficulty of carrying the pipes is reduced.”

"It's worth a try." Kent agreed to modify the original plan, and the three of them started rehearsing again.

The helicopter crew also encountered some problems, mainly because they needed better cooperation when landing on the train.When the helicopter lands, the lift needs to be less than the gravity. At this time, its flight attitude is very fragile, and the train will bump.The two drivers carefully checked the route, trying to find a route that was long enough, straight enough, and flat enough, but the three could only satisfy two of them at most.If the time factor and the passing factor are also taken into consideration, the optimal solution is also the most difficult solution: first satisfy the straightness, and the priority of the length can only be backward.

"For the sake of height, it has no landing wheels, so it has to land on its belly, which lacks some cushioning. The short length is just equal to the short time, straight, that is, the lateral and longitudinal displacements are actually more dangerous - for this helicopter without legs. Muir always felt that Lucy was not there, and Zhuang Xuteng was the team leader of the four of them, so he specifically explained to Zhuang Xuteng: "Grove must fly low, fly fast, and then land quickly. Since there are no wheels, there is no space under the fuselage. , so absolutely cannot stand up to others.”

The so-called standing people refer to the original plan to let Kent, Wayne and Prince wait to land at the parking lot, one person with one wheel, and use their strength to fix the helicopter.Without wheels, the nose of the aircraft comes down directly. The scene is like slapping bugs with the soles of shoes, so there must be no one below.

"I have to fly very precisely." Grove frowned, and said, "Can't we make a light signal down here?"

"There can be no lights, the locomotive can only move forward in complete darkness." Muir was very determined, and said: "I have changed the locomotive to cover all possible fires from the steam engine, including the chimney. I have to operate in the dark train."

"The train is on the rails, but I'm in the sky. It's not the same thing." Grove pouted, and said, "The low-light night vision device also has its limit. We need the train to handle it. The question is whether there will be other Obstacles. I have to go to the field to fly, or I don’t know what to do.”

"Then change to a helicopter, don't use it for missions." Muir thought for a while, and said, "Use a sightseeing propeller plane during the day. Let's use one for each of us. Let's go there one by one. I'll leave a flight track on it, and you can go." Low-altitude reconnaissance, and then we will stack the Arhats back, so that only one can be seen from the air traffic control side. One flight during the day, one flight at night, three times a week."

Zhuang Xuteng was stunned and asked, "Can you still do this?"

Grove smiled and said, "Of course. This time, I will try to fly with my eyes closed and find the feeling of a mission."
