Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 154 Ruins
Once he clarified his mission and obligations, Jiatu immediately acted.

He could feel that there should be two mechas on both sides of 10011.

One manned airframe plus two unmanned airframes is the normal establishment of the pioneers.

Therefore, the battle between the pioneers and the hunters is not so much that humans are driving the mechs to fight, but it is better to say that the element called "humanity" is inserted into the battle between mechas and mechas.

This is also normal -

After all, when the "elephants" are fighting, how can humans easily intervene——

Unless they have spears in their hands.

Jiatu thought subconsciously, and gradually got used to 10011's fighting style.

While fighting in 10011, he also gradually became familiar with the operation method of the pioneers.

Just like the armored brain guides combat techniques, Jiatu gradually became a qualified mecha pilot after the initial adaptation period.

Therefore, the pioneer's operation mode is no longer a pure combat operation performed by 10011 based on mechanical instinct, but it brings Jiatu's will and purpose——

Soon, through continuous changes of direction, they got rid of the pursuers behind them.

"Sure enough, rather than besieging us... Skynet is more willing to block key intersections and conduct dragnet-style investigations..."

Jiatu sensed the actions of the roving hunters, and roughly judged Skynet's intentions.

After all, what the other party is performing is the operation in the textbook, and the standard is so high that it is impossible to guess wrong.

[So what to do next?The number of opponents far outnumbers us. 】

10011 proved with its strength that a dozen or so mobile hunters could not stop them at all.

If the number of enemies is less than five, they will even be counter-killed by them.

But it's a pity that Skynet has tens of thousands of chess pieces——

They were in no hurry to fight Jiatu.

Just use the pull net to check.

But this also gave Jiatu and the others a chance——

"The enemy moves very slowly, let's look for supply points first."

Jiatu looked at the supply map given by 10011, most of which are behind the blockade.

But there are also two or three inside the blockade.

And Skynet chose to slow down, which just gave them a chance.

So Jiatu estimated the fuel of the injector and arrived at the first target point in more than ten minutes.

"Did it really get blown up..."

Jiatu didn't land on the ground, just glanced at it, and he realized that it was attacked by a ground-penetrating bomb.

The entire plot was uprooted, and the explosion caused by the martyrdom made the scene quite spectacular.

But he also became curious:
"This is a park, right? Why did you set up the military supply point inside the city?"

【Do you know the terrain of Jincheng City? 】

10011 did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

Jiatu just thought for a while, and confirmed the boundary of the city map in his mind——

"...the island?"

Jiatu belatedly realized why there was such a thing as a sea-crossing bridge——

Because that is the only entrance and exit of the entire island city.

[The space on the island is very limited, so some of the original military facilities are included within the city limits—and the reason for choosing this place is also for political reasons. It is a better choice...]

10011's voice was a little whiny, but Jiatu didn't pay too much attention to it.

He didn't ask what the political reason was, after all, the second supply location also appeared in front of him.

It's a pity that it was also bombed here.

However, compared with the first supply location, there were signs of resistance here. Anti-aircraft missile vehicles and anti-aircraft guns were blown up all over the place. It was not until they were eliminated that the ammunition depot was completely blown up by ground-penetrating missiles.

This gave Cato a glimmer of hope—

Because judging from the traces of the battle, the closer to the third supply location, the more obvious signs of resistance from the human troops.

It's a pity that at this time, the pioneer's flight fuel has also been exhausted——

While nuclear power reactors can provide unlimited power, the same cannot be said for propulsion fluids.

In the pre-human era, it is obvious that "no propellant propulsion" has not been developed.

Before the last milliliter of propellant was used up, Garto dropped the Harbinger to the ground.

Compared with flight fuel, the Pioneer Mecha is driven by engineering muscles. As long as there is enough power, it can continuously expand and move like a human body.

Jiatu controlled the pioneer, and "walked" towards the last ammunition depot.

It is one of the three largest strongholds of the defense forces in Jincheng City.

The closer he got there, the more and more signs of battle Gator could see——

Correspondingly, there are large expanses of blue mourning flowers.

As Jiatu approached the center of the ruins, the blue mourning flowers on both sides of the street were so bright that they seemed to be able to emit light.

They grow in large areas in the concrete ruins without soil, occasionally dotted with some post-modern plants, but the way they bloom wantonly is obviously different from other places.

It was only at this time that Jiatu realized the relationship between Lan Mourning Flower and the "Alienated Body Facility" belatedly—

"The more blue mourning flowers there are, the more likely it is to find "Alienated Body"..."

Looking at the towering pale blue door in the distance, Jiatu subconsciously judged.

[Discovered the Alienated Body Facility - "Genaku", do you want to go in? 】

The voice of 10011 interrupted Jiatu's thinking and made him a little surprised: "Do you know what that is?"

[The Pioneer is equipped with the "alienation body" analysis equipment. Although the accuracy rate is not high, it can provide a certain reference. 】

10011 replied briefly.

But through the glimmer of light from inside the blue door, Jiatu could vaguely understand something.

More importantly, he can hear the debates and negotiations in the higher-dimensional world——

"I offer [-] Shenyuan coins, betting it can break through the blockade!" "

"fart!I bet 100 million Shenyuan coins, this expedition will all fail! "

The debate in Cyber ​​City made Xu Yang dizzy.

The participants in the gambling game are all cyber gods who are many times more powerful than the giants of light, and they can place huge chips with every move.

Thanks to them, Jiatu received the most attention after becoming the Pioneer Pilot.

And what followed was a huge amount of chips and gambling.

Jiatu is not interested in the betting chips that bet ten times more than himself——

But the chips that bet on him to win have actually helped him.

Jiatu could feel that as he got more and more chips, his various actions became smoother and smoother.

Although he can't directly use these chips like the Mother of Skyfire, it is not a big problem to use the "Alienated Body Facility" to realize these chips——

Because this was originally a gimmick created by the casino dealer in order to attract gamblers to place bets.

"I already have nearly 7000 million chips... Even if I only take out one hundredth, it is enough to pay the price of "Genaku"..."

Jiatu thought silently, controlled the pioneers, and walked slowly into "Alienated Architecture".

Somewhat disappointingly, there are no spare mechas in Ganaku.

In other words, the possibility of controlling twelve unmanned Pioneers to kill the Quartet as he expected is gone.

But other than that, the supply of ammunition is everything.

According to his battle plan, 10011 and Heiyin replaced the equipment on the pioneer.

Even the left foot and right thrusters, which were somewhat malfunctioning due to heavy pressure, were replaced with new ones.

There is no one in Ganaku.

But Jiatu could feel the faint enthusiasm coming from the void.

"Thank you for your help..."

For some reason, Jiatu looked at the empty "Genaku" and felt an urge to salute them.

And looking at the blue mourning flowers blooming at his feet, he pushed the pioneer's engine with all his strength and flew upwards.

.

[Actually choose to expose yourself actively... If it wasn't for the original order of "serving mankind", I would never follow you to do so...]

10011's voice reveals amazement.

But it doesn't have much timidity.

Because it is different from "Skynet", in the artificial logic of Cyan Fang, there is not much "preservation of oneself".

Or it's not a high priority.

As fighters, they have been produced for sacrifice——

Unless the driver they're responsible for doesn't want to die.

"Our purpose is to delay time and attract Skynet's attention. If possible, it is possible to directly break through Skynet's blockade and reach the destination."

Jiatu has already figured out that there are signs of human troop activity within a few kilometers near the sea-crossing bridge, because the Skynet inside Jincheng City is a lone army, so they will not rashly conflict with the human survivors outside——

"It" doesn't even care much about the Raiders of the Vault.

The encirclement and suppression of them is not so much deliberate as it is a kind of randomness to kill mosquitoes——

Although mosquitoes are easy to kill, they have to be encountered every year. After a few hundred years, they will not be able to generate much interest.

Jiatu did not explain this information to Heiyin and 10011.

Because this is what he heard from the gambling game in Cyber ​​City through Xu Yang's perspective.

During these thousand years of battle, there were quite a few gods in the city of Jin who had been paying attention, and Jiatu would gain a lot just by listening to them chatting a few words.

"But... even if we don't pay much attention to us... can they still oppress the explorers to this extent..."

Jiatu took a deep breath, looked at the hundreds of purple-red light spots rising from the blockade, and clenched the joystick in his hand.

The way to control the pioneer is "duplex".

Because humans have no radar, no balance wings, no missile bays, and no skirt propellers.

But the possibilities of the human brain are endless.

If electrodes are implanted in the baby's brain, even if it is not inserted in a specific position, as he grows up, he can also use the electrodes in the brain to control the handle to play games.

Because it is determined by the structure of the brain.

For the human brain, all neocortices are composed of five layers of the same structure.

So in theory, a young man with only damaged neocortex may behave no differently from normal people after several years of rehabilitation training——

Because the function of the part of his injured brain area was replaced by the cerebral cortex in other areas.

Of course, this refers only to the brain function of the neocortex, and has little to do with the brain structure of the brainstem and old brain regions.

But at least one thing can be explained——

The plasticity of the human brain is very strong.

As long as enough time is given, even if there is an extra pair of wings on the body, humans can control it while flying and designing.

It would be even more so if there was the "brain stem of the new human being" assisted by the "Main Installed Horror Brain".

"Give them a hard time first!"

Jiatu took a deep breath, got rid of all distracting thoughts, and released the attack safety on the joystick.

In the next second, with the full operation of the Pioneer data link system, all abandoned military equipment within [-] kilometers of the entire city woke up from a long slumber.

On Jiatu's pupils appeared countless blue bright spots that marked his side.

At the same time, hundreds of patrol hunters in the sky were also locked on by the anti-aircraft missile vehicles from the ground one by one.

Skynet's troops immediately became confused.

The security war for too long has made them no longer capable of fighting against the army.

But the human army zombies from the pre-civilization era who were left in the ruins of the city because of "lack of efficiency" would not take this into account—

Except for those parts damaged by time and battles, most of them still maintain the same attack ability as they have been for more than 1000 years!

Jiatu could even see the scarlet sirens that lit up in the Skynet command room——

Because after all, there are thousands of anti-aircraft missile vehicles!
However, only a dozen of these thousands of anti-aircraft missile vehicles can be used, and most of the ammunition has been completely consumed.

Only a dozen or so near the "Genaku" were reloaded by Jiatu, and they were galloping on the broken city streets under the control of Heiyin and 10011.

“N33°31'52.5“ E117°45'36.1“……五台巡回猎杀者下降了高度，交给你们了！”

Jiatu was constantly judging the situation of the entire battle.

He used those discarded air defense radars to create a large number of electromagnetic interference projects, and it would take a certain amount of time for Skynet to eliminate them all.

And within this range, he can use anti-aircraft unmanned vehicles to shoot down some patrolling hunters.

With the sound of explosions one after another, Jiatu also quickly lowered his altitude.

Taking advantage of Skynet's temporary lack of opportunity to activate heavy weapons and exposing himself briefly was the first step in his plan.

But Jiatu would not think that Skynet would not even have the slightest control over the air——

At most, because of efficiency reasons, most of the heavy weapons used to control the air have been sealed and put into storage.

As the entire city was activated by Jiatu after thousands of years, Skynet would react sooner or later.

At least the hundreds of high-altitude drones that Jiatu kept flying in order to gain aerial vision began to be swept down one after another by some kind of invisible laser attack.

But compared to high-altitude battles, street battles in cities are the vanguard's advantage.

These units, known as sky tanks, were designed for urban warfare.

Facing the anti-armor missiles fired at him, Jiatu raised the 35mm assault gun in his hand and quickly pulled the trigger.

These caliber and anti-aircraft machine guns are equipped with the same size, and in the face of "slow" flying missiles, they can be swept away one after another in the blink of an eye.

The directional grenade launched by Jiatu from behind also bypassed the barriers of several buildings, and hit two patrol hunters carrying anti-mech equipment from behind.

After a hit, Jiatu immediately began to move.

The sonic radar mounted on the mecha can easily tell him the trajectory of nearby heavy armored units——

Just like the sound of Jiatu's jet engine cannot be hidden, the infrared signature and jet blast of the roving hunters can also be clearly seen under 10011's analysis.

And 10011 is worthy of claiming that it has fought hundreds of millions of simulated battles with artificial intelligence. The roving hunters on Skynet are not its opponents at all.

On one side are "veterans" who specialize in heavy armor slaughter, while on the other side are "new recruits" who have been addicted to security warfare for a long time. The tactical design and combat response of the two sides are not at the same level.

At least Jiatu could clearly feel the faint "bewilderment" coming from the enemy.

But at the same time, he could also feel that Skynet was also evolving rapidly.

The armor tactical specifications in the database are being rapidly loaded onto the patrolling hunter——

However, those who use these specifications are not the old-style Rollian mechs equipped with anti-armor assault guns, but the ridiculous castrated tanks like the Touring Hunter——

Then the result can only be a one-sided massacre.
