Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 155 Final Chapter
The three smoke bombs flew out in the shape of the word "pin", and exploded in the crowd of unmanned hunters.

The artificial intelligence that was disturbed by the optical and electromagnetic signals immediately turned off the safety of the weapon, and fully activated the jet engine, trying to escape from above.

However, in the sea of ​​smoke swept away by the jet tail flames, a different gray mech appeared.

It picked up the two 35mm cannons in its hands, and fired at the cluster of drones in the air without hesitation.

Presenting a dense formation, the spider-type drones that had not yet deployed in the future were immediately hit one after another.

Purple flames exploded in the silver chest compartment one after another, and disappeared into the air one after another.

Facing the attack of the gray mecha, the surviving patrolling hunters lowered their altitude to look for cover, while raising the 20mm cannon in the six limbs, and fired at it one after another.

Because they follow the instruction of maximizing efficiency, they are not stingy about using their "life" in exchange for the fall of the pioneers.

So after the hit hit, Jiatu immediately chose to retreat and moved in the opposite direction.

[Thanks to your order, the ambush works very well. 】

10011 judges the outcome of this encounter.

The attacks of the itinerant hunters have not stopped, and they continue to attack in the direction they left.

And Jiatu had already crossed the gap between the teams and went straight behind them.

[Skynet has changed its tactics. 】

Just by glancing at the feedback on the radar, Heiyin immediately judged the other party's movements.

After all, she was an old opponent thousands of years ago. As an ace pilot, she also had the best understanding of Skynet's intentions.

Thanks to this, Jiatu has been using the stealth function of the pioneers to eliminate more than 50 patrol hunters, triggering Skynet's "fuse" mechanism.

Now it has re-dispersed the patrolling hunter's team, and at a distance of about 30 meters, it slowly swept towards the possible location of Jiatu.

Such tactics are fatal to Jiatu and the others.

But it was also the result of his and Heiyin's calculations for a long time.

"The next stage is the final stage... Are you ready?"

Jiatu took a deep breath, the more than an hour of fighting had greatly drained his concentration.

This is also the biggest difference between carbon-based life and silicon-based life——

The organic life forms are not prepared for the high consumption of silicon-based life.

If every natural person can borrow a mechanical computer like 10011 to continuously calculate and fight, then with the efficiency of the earth receiving solar radiation, the input is far behind the output.

In other words, if there were no other world passages like "The Gate", under the rule of Skynet, the earth would have been "heat dead" hundreds of years ago due to the exhaustion of resources.

At least before Heiyin and the others died, the oil and coal resources on the earth had been exhausted.

When the energy accumulated by life on earth over a long period of time is exhausted, only wind energy, thermal energy, and solar energy are left on the earth——

However, wind energy and thermal energy are originally generated by uneven energy distribution, and are essentially solar energy or planetary energy.

When the utilization efficiency of solar energy reaches the highest level - this is the theoretical limit of the earth's energy output.

In order to achieve this theoretical output limit, even life including plants, forests, and wild animals cannot exist——

Because the solar energy they rely on for their living has been swallowed up by the machinery.

[If "Life Giant" hadn't appeared...we originally wanted to go to the universe...]

There is a faint sigh in Heiyin's voice: [There is a wider space and solar energy in the universe. In theory, turning the sun into a Dyson sphere and using all the energy of the stars, we can fly across the solar system... It's a pity that "Gate" appearance changed everything. 】

[Too many politicians feel that instead of telling the people that they must travel through the unknown outer space and face the unknown of the universe for the survival of the human race, it is better to tell them that they can trade with other worlds, or even invade and plunder...]

"Sai'an chose to cooperate, but Luolian chose to colonize..."

Jiatu didn't need to think too much, he had already predicted the result.

Because this itself is a kind of "path dependence" based on the national system.

【Yes. 】

Heiyin nodded, and the beautiful holographic projection turned to look at him:
[However, the counterattack from the opposite side was more intense than we imagined—no, it should be said that "we" were targeted. 】

【Earth's technology and population are all things they covet...】

【We used to think that other worlds are the same as the earth, and that civilization and society are everything to them...】

[But we underestimated. 】

[We didn't expect that for humans in other worlds, their "gods" are the real power. 】

[The special rules of demons in the earth world have triggered the invasion of a large number of gods from other worlds. They fight with each other and us. Artificial intelligence" all chose to surrender. 】

"All artificial intelligence chose to surrender?!"

Jiatu was stunned, and couldn't help looking at the distant air——

"You mean, Skynet too?"

[It is difficult for humans in another world to produce industries, and Skynet has evolved to build machines by itself, so it is naturally favored by the gods of other worlds. 】

Heiyin said lightly: [There are also smart people among the Ability Gods. The greatest existence among them has merged the entire unmanned Luolian Federation into its own ranks, and those of us who are loyal to humans and artificial intelligence are captured by The object selected for "clearing". 】

[The final battle took place between Sai’an and Luolian Federation—even when we were at the height of the dispute, we didn’t kill each other, but we were instigated by Ability God to kill each other… This is the result. 】

Jiatu silently listened to Heiyin's narration.

He pushed the Herald straight ahead.

All calculations have come to an end at this moment.

When Skynet wants to choose a "more efficient" method, they have a chance.

But once Skynet realized that "the dumbest way" was "the most efficient", their chances were over.

This is the difference in size.

Regardless of the difference in specifications between the Pioneer and the Tour Hunter, a hundred well-disciplined children can easily kill a world-class boxing champion like Tyson.

So Jiatu and the others have only one thing to do——

That is to go straight forward until the blockade is broken!
"Thank you for accompanying us here..."

Jiatu took a deep breath, and said slowly as if saying his last words:
"I never thought I'd get to this level..."

However, Heiyin didn't seem to hear the regret in his words, and said lightly:

【It’s okay, we are the ones who want to thank you for being with us until now——】

[Fire Demon and I are both undead from the old world, it's time for the humans of our era to end. 】

"Maybe it's also the end of 'humanity'..."

Looking at the purple propelling light slowly appearing in the distance, Jiatu pushed the handle hard and attacked with all his strength.

Borrowing the [-]-meter-high buildings everywhere in the ruins of the city, Jiatu kept moving and advancing.

According to the Lancaster equation, bullets and long-range attacks can amplify the difference in numbers between the two sides. On the contrary, melee combat will make the side with the numerical advantage less obvious.

So he chose "close combat" without hesitation.

At least it's close combat.

He handed over the shooting action to the artificial intelligence, and he did the close combat that he is best at.

He took advantage of the complex environment of street fighting to constantly shuttle among the swarms of unmanned machines.

The itinerant hunters who discovered his whereabouts also gathered in his direction.

Because the distribution is so even, there's almost nowhere to hide from him.

One after another, the 20mm machine guns hit the pioneers one after another, and even the two skirt propellers exploded one after another.

It's a pity that individual mechas can't only rely on propellers to move.

The moment the propeller exploded and hit the ground, Jiatu pulled out the long knife on his shoulder, and rushed towards the patrol hunter in front.

The bullet hit the limbs of the mecha, but the hollow skeleton structure allowed the bullet to pass through directly, and the thick main armor on the chest also blocked all the 20mm cannon bullets.

This is the pioneer's defense strategy -

Focus on the key protection of the cockpit, supplemented by weakened protection of the limbs.

The bullets that passed through the electronic muscle did not cause much damage. Instead, they were hit by the assault gun in Jiatu's left hand before they could be defended, and they exploded into pieces one after another.

And Jiatu bypassed the ruins of the drone armor and continued to move forward.

With the gathering of enemies, the number of mechs in front of Jiatu gradually increased.

While using the explosion created by 10011 as a cover, he approached the patrolling hunters in the rear, chopped off their limbs and propellers with a long knife, and reinstalled them on his body——

Although the weapons and propulsion engines of Luolian Mecha have been modified by Skynet, the basic principles are common to all human beings on the earth.

As for the mechs on Sai'an's side, it is natural that Luolian-style data interfaces are prepared.

As long as the equipment of the drone armor can be captured, the special design inside the armor and the invasion of nano-robots can immediately turn them into their own equipment.

Pioneers who have regained the ability to fly want to take off.

He was hit in the leg by a series of shots.

As if destroyed, it crooked and its feet exploded, disappearing into the plastic smoke caused by the vaporization of electronic muscles.

However, the patrolling hunters did not dare to relax their vigilance——

Sure enough, the Pioneer, who completely abandoned his limbs, formed wings with two propellers, and increased the distance without hesitation.

This time, even the defensive armor on the back was ejected.

Only the thrusters plus the main armor belt on the chest.

The Pioneer, which reduced the weight of its own machine to the lightest, instantly gained the mobility far surpassing that of a lightweight machine like the Touring Hunter.

Before the other unmanned machines could react, it had already raised the ceiling straightly, pierced the low-altitude edge of the city, and rushed forward!
"Because of the previous battle, the peripheral troops have been attracted, I hope we can have good luck..."

In just the blink of an eye, Jiatu and the others had already left the theoretical movement limit of the pioneers——

This is the edge of the blockade set by Skynet based on the movement ability of the heavy mech Pioneer.

It will not take into account that the pioneers actually have such a breakaway tactic——

Because it was not in the Pioneer's driving manual.

It was Jiatu's brainstorming idea, coupled with the hard work of Heiyin and 10011, that made it come true.

[When the propeller was destroyed, I thought we were finished...]

Heiyin's voice also contained fear: [I didn't expect you to immediately think of snatching it from the patrolling hunter...]

"I didn't know you guys could really exchange parts..."

Jiatu also shook his head and exclaimed: "I just think that the mech chose the 'humanoid' design, there must be some reason."

[It's purely for the convenience of "Main Installing Horror Brain". 】

Heiyin glanced at him, then looked forward: [Here we are... the cross-sea bridge...]

Jiatu landed slowly on the square in front of the destination.

The pioneer who passed through the Skynet blockade looked very miserable, except for the chest cockpit, only one right arm remained.

And seeing the gray mecha flying close from a distance, the people in the square also took a defensive posture——

Because it must be too late to escape.

"Hena, Warren, and Zhiti..."

Jiatu glanced at the villain on the ground, and slowly lowered the mecha.

He asked 10011 to open the cockpit, and extended his right hand to several people on the ground:

"Quick! Let's get out of here!"

The drone swarm behind him had already crossed the previous blockade line without hesitation, chasing him.

If he abandoned Hena and the others here, surely not many people would survive.

Although she didn't know how critical the situation was, Hena climbed up without hesitation when she saw Jiatu's outstretched right hand.

Hua Lun and Zhi Ti also looked at each other, and with the help of Jia Tu's right hand, the three of them entered the cockpit.

Looking at the holographic external scene in the cockpit, they were amazed.

And Jiatu pushed the engine without hesitation, controlled the pioneer, and flew towards the other side of the sea.

The half-disabled mecha was on the way, Jiatu and the others saw the destroyed road, and they couldn't help but fell silent.

[That's right, how could Skynet leave a path for you to leave...]

"Is everything just a trap..."

Warren murmured what everyone was thinking.

But Jiatu looked at the mecha in his hand and took a deep breath:

"But at least we exceeded Skynet's expectations!"

Facing the approaching pursuer, Jiatu did not hesitate to push the engine thrust to the maximum.

The gray mecha dragged its blue tail light and flew towards the opposite bank of the bridge.

With the hope of mankind, go all the way and never look back.

[Write a testimonial later, even if it's over. 】
