Steel Chang'an

Chapter 90

They walked along the dry beach, through the broken gap in the coastal defense wall, and walked towards the disappearing sea.

According to Mu Yun's plan, they had to walk into the sea as deep as possible.The first meeting point of the waves is about forty miles away from the coastline, and the wave height will not exceed 30 meters at that time.This is the best place for them to snipe the tsunami.If they miss this meeting point, the next wave's meeting point will move to a position less than ten miles from the coastline, and the wave height will reach more than 50 meters at that time.None of their three armors were naval battle armors. Facing waves of this magnitude, they would be washed away before they could dive in and throw mines.

They only have one chance.

The feet of the battle armor Xifeng stepped into the sea water.It wasn't until this moment that Mu Yun realized how slim the chances left for them were.He had faced Li Jing's One Under Heaven before, and he had also fought against the famous Heifeng Shenjia in "Shen Bing Lu", but this time his opponent was completely different.

This time, his opponent was the sea itself.

In the age of legends, the ancestors of mankind once wrestled with such opponents.Mu Yun had seen the scene of them fighting in hallucinations.At that time, the sea was more brutal, but the armors controlled by those knights were also larger, and the 30-meter waves were like small waves under their feet.

But now the armor Xifeng he is driving is only a 12-ton armor, and its head height is only 18 meters. Among the three armors they are driving, even the King Kong armor with the largest tonnage is the highest. It is only 30 meters. A wave of [-] meters will completely swallow them.Each cubic meter of water weighs one ton.When the sea water overflowed the head height of Zephyr's armor, he already felt the pressure from the seawater, and every step he took forward, the pressure on Zephyr would become greater, this kind of pressure not only affected the knight His limbs became sluggish, making it difficult to even keep going, while his lungs and blood vessels were under tremendous pressure.His breathing began to become difficult, and his blood seemed to be boiling in his body, tormenting his whole body, he felt dizzy, and even his thinking became sluggish.He knew that the situation of Lao Zhang and Zheng Quan would not be much better, especially since Zheng Quan's Gale Armor was a light armor, he would be under greater pressure than himself.They were extremely silent along the way, because they knew very well that this little pressure in front of them was nothing compared to the enemies they were about to face next.

They finally stood at the predetermined coordinate point.Mu Yun raised a hand to signal the other two armors to stop.According to Madden's judgment, the superposition point of the two waves is near this coordinate and will not exceed 50 meters.What they have to do now is to hold on to this coordinate point and wait for the signal from Madden to throw mines on the shore.They had to detonate the mines at the bottom of the crest, which meant they would take the brunt of at least one huge wave.

And sea water is not the only thing that makes up that giant wave.

He saw the sea water in front of him turn red, as if the sea suddenly opened countless red eyes, and then, those blood-red eyes formed hideous beast shadows.Mu Yun raised his head, and he saw a gate of hell opened in front of him by the pitch-black sea water. Countless beasts covered in flames surged out of the darkness, slashing their sharp claws in mid-air, sweeping across the sky and covering the earth. come. "What a spectacular red tide!" He heard Zheng Quan whisper, and the voice of this always smiling man became very serious at the moment, "The number of red devils is too dense, find a way to fix yourself, otherwise we will be together Swallowed away by the herd!"

Mu Yun pulled out the Bright Sword from behind, inserted it into the seabed with all his strength, then squatted down, and tightly held the hilt of the sword with both hands.At that moment, he felt a powerful impact, as if a huge wall was pressing against him in front of him, and blood spurted from his lungs, "Hold on! He roared loudly, reminding others and encouraging himself at the same time, "The signal will arrive at any time, if we are rushed away from the coordinate point now, we will miss the opportunity to throw the mine!"

Before he could finish his sentence, a Red Demon whose tonnage was comparable to that of the battle armor West Wind slammed into him fiercely.The ancient sea beast wrapped in huge waves waved its sharp claws, instinctively wanting to grab anything it could grab.King Xiao Teng retained its original casing when transforming Xifeng. As the most primitive zero-type mecha, its airtightness and pressure resistance performance are already very good, but it is not a mecha after all. Water battle armor, its structure does not include ballast water tanks, and its drainage system is not used for deep diving. It can stand the test if it has not fallen apart under the strong pressure of more than 30 meters of waves. , but under the collision of the red demon, Mu Yun actually heard a dangerous creaking sound from the cockpit wall, and at the same time, there was Lao Zhang's roar: "Be careful! Claws can tear apart alloy armor!"

Mu Yun turned his head, and saw that two red demons were already hanging on Lao Zhang's Vajra armor, with sixteen claws deeply embedded in the casing, clung to the Vajra armor desperately, and it was about to crush this three-year-old King Kong armor. Ten tons of heavy armor was dragged to the ground and swept away by the waves. Only Lao Zhang let out a deafening roar, and the King Kong battle armor opened two giant palms, one left and one right, and forcibly smashed the two scarlet demons. It was ripped off from the fuselage and thrown to the sides!
Mu Yun just breathed a sigh of relief, but Zheng Quan yelled sharply: "Be careful of your right side!" Mu Yun didn't have time to turn, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a huge red demon with a tonnage far higher than its kind, and was swept by the waves. Passing by the armored west wind, the beast was also panicked in the huge waves. It actually took the armored west wind as a life-saving straw, and hugged it from behind, and its eight sharp claws grabbed the fuselage desperately!
At this moment, Mu Yun's hands were still holding the bright sword inserted into the seabed, and it was too late to draw the sword and turn around, so in desperation, he had to fly his feet and kick behind him.Fortunately, under the buoyancy of the sea water, this extremely difficult movement on land was successfully performed by him without the auxiliary engine of the legs!I saw that the fuselage of the battle armor Xifeng and the bright sword inserted into the seabed almost formed a [-]-degree right angle. The fat body was pulled back by the waves, leaving eight shocking claw marks on the armor of Zephyr, and even the shoulder armor of Zephyr was pulled off by the sharp claws, making the cockpit The red battle damage alarm of the machine is crackling non-stop!
Mu Yun, Zheng Quan, and Lao Zhang exclaimed "No!" almost at the same time, and the three battle armors chased after the kicked red demon almost at the same time!Because when the beast was kicked into the air, it opened its mouth wide in desperation, and bit the bundle of sea mines on the back of the battle armor Xifeng—the sea mines that the sea people can take out are all of the same size. The old ones are the old mines that they salvaged from the vicinity of the sea and have not been detonated. They have been dormant in the sea for hundreds of years. Naturally, they cannot match the armor weapon system of Mu Yun and others, so Mu Yun simply regarded them as ballast weights, tied them together with steel cables, carried them behind the armor, and detonated them manually when the time came.The large bundle of mines was fixed firmly on Xifeng's back, otherwise the bundle of mines would have been washed away by the surf before they reached the bottom of the waves.Who knows that beast is also quite persistent, even if it is kicked by Mu Yun, it will not let go. The five-ton mine was torn from Xifeng's back abruptly!

The reactions of Mu Yun and the other three were also very fast. I don't know how many red demons were churning in the huge waves, just like dumplings, some with their heads down and some with their feet up. In addition, a large amount of sediment on the seabed was rolled up by the waves, and the field of view of everyone's armor monitor was also chaotic, with extremely low visibility. It was already difficult for the armor to move in the water. Beast that walks mine ammo packs.The three of Mu Yun were also very anxious, and surrounded the animal in three ways at the fastest speed. The three of them couldn't care less about humility at the moment, and all kinds of attacks greeted them almost at the same time, and within a few seconds, the animal was blasted into pieces. A pile of rotten meat—fortunately, the attacks of the three of them were not based on thermal weapons, and such a fierce attack was not afraid of accidentally detonating the mine.But even so, their current position has deviated from the original coordinate point by hundreds of meters. It took them only five seconds to chase the beast until it was killed, but at this moment they wanted to go back against the waves. But it can't be done in five seconds!

What's worse is that the bundle of mines that was originally tightly tied together with steel cables by more than a dozen seamen rushed to work at the same time, after such a toss, I don't know which link was bitten off by the beast. It fell apart, and as soon as it was pulled out from the beast's mouth full of sharp teeth, it turned into a pile of scattered pieces. Mu Yun and the three of them couldn't react in time, and were immediately swept away by the waves. Quickly manipulated the battle armor to pick up the remaining mines, but in the huge waves, it was extremely difficult for them to stand still and not be washed away. Floating around like a feather, the three of them are in a hurry, but how much can they pick up!
At this moment, Mu Yun heard a short beep from the communicator!This is the signal they agreed with the old seaman named Madden on the shore, reminding them to be ready to detonate the mine.As the interval between each beep is shortened, it means that the coming wave gathering point is getting closer and closer to them. When the interval between the beeps disappears completely and they are connected together, they will Detonating the mine at that time was also their only chance to attack the tsunami. If they missed this bombing and the waves superimposed over 50 meters, they would never even have the chance to get close!

Mu Yun glanced at the throwing point sent by Madden. The position was only 50 meters away from the coordinate point he had initially predicted. This shows that Madden did not boast on the shore. precise.If it wasn't for that bastard who unexpectedly pulled away the mine, they would have had enough time to complete the bombing and detonation, but now they turn around, not to mention whether they can catch up with the bombing time, the mines left in their hands are not powerful enough to detonate Break up overlapping waves and stop them from converging into a giant tsunami!
Listening to the shorter and shorter beeps, the faces of Mu Yun and the three in the cockpit were all pale. "Your eldest brother's legs!" Lao Zhang cursed in a low voice, and then raised his voice, "Brothers, the glorious time has come, I see that as long as our three battle armors blew up a core power furnace, the power should be It is enough to lose the mine, without further ado, if there is anyone who volunteers, hurry up! If there is no volunteer, then hurry up and make a fist, you can know the palm of your hand, right? Don’t say that my old Zhang never gave you a chance!"

What kind of punches are you guessing at this time!Besides, when you say boxing guessing, you just guess boxing?Now the self-explosive battle armor is no better than on the ground, the knight in the cockpit still has the hope of escaping, everyone knows that under such huge waves, as soon as this person leaves the cockpit, he will be directly crushed into meatloaf by the seawater The red devil, Zheng Quan will not be the first one to accompany this kind of death, and don't guess the rest of me and Lao Zhang, just go directly, after all, the person who accidentally let that beast take the mine For myself, there is no reason to let others take glory for myself!Thinking of this, Mu Yun immediately planned to control the armor Xifeng to charge forward, but heard Zheng Quan say coldly: "It's too late."

what!Before Mu Yun had time to react, he saw Lao Zhang's King Kong battle armor punching the seabed with both fists, and then rushed forward!When Mu Yun met Lao Zhang for the first time, he saw him smash open an alley forcefully with this shock wave move, but in the sea water, although the Vajra battle armor swung open the heads in front of him with teeth and claws The red devil came, but the battle armor itself failed to move forward a few meters and was rushed back!
"Your second uncle, the water flow has accelerated. My old Zhang's armor is too big to rush through. It seems that this glorious opportunity is reserved for you!" Lao Zhang coughed as he said, presumably under the rush He was also seriously injured by the reaction force.Mu Yun gritted her teeth, and was about to pull out the bright sword on the back of the battle armor Xifeng with her backhand, but unexpectedly, Zheng Quan's movement of the blast armor was one step faster than him. Before Xifeng's hand touched the bright sword, Zheng Quan made a move Lock it up!
Only Zheng Quan said coldly behind him: "Your master wants me to guarantee you to go back safely, you must not force me to knock you out and drag you back, it is still very dangerous to do such a thing in such a big wave .”

Before Zheng Quan finished speaking, his Gale Armor fell to the ground and was overturned by Lao Zhang's incomparably brave little King Kong, only to hear Lao Zhang yelling loudly: "Boy, hurry up, I, Lao Zhang, will help you with this guy!" Solve it, your life is exchanged for the lives of 10 people, this kind of glorious opportunity does not come every day, your master will be proud of you even if he is nothing!"

Seeing the two guys fighting and being dragged back several meters by the waves, Mu Yun quickly yelled, "Stop it! I don't need to blow up my armor to snipe the tsunami, but I need your help. Let me rush to that coordinate point!"

That method should be feasible... Mu Yun thought of the pictures he saw in his hallucinations, those giant armors fighting in a more powerful and violent storm than now, if those pictures really came from the memory of Bright Sword, It should know what to do.Mu Yun thought to himself.He still remembered the legend about the Netherworld Knight mentioned by Li Jing. This sword used to be the sword of the Netherworld Knight. If those legends are true, this sword in the hands of the Netherworld Knight can split the sea and separate the sea. Then maybe it can be in your own hands...

No, he can definitely do it.Mu Yun thought to himself.He thought again of the words they said on the shore: "Could it be that they, like those sea people, believe that you are really the incarnation of the Knight of Light? That would be interesting..."

It was this sentence that made the clues that had been hovering in his mind like fragments finally put together, and came up with an answer that shocked him...

If this is the truth, Mu Yun thought to himself, if he really possessed this kind of power at that time, then he would definitely be able to do it!

What's more, even if he fails, as long as he can reach the coordinate point in time, he still has the last resort of self-destructing the battle armor!
No matter how rough Lao Zhang is, his reasoning is not rough. If his life can be exchanged for [-] lives, it will be worth it!

Thinking of this, Mu Yun's heart, which had gradually fallen into frustration and despair because of the increasingly rapid beeping, was full of confidence again.It's just that time is running out, and he has no time to explain to Lao Zhang and Zheng Quan in detail.Fortunately, these two people are the first-class masters among the knights, and their adaptability is quite strong, especially once Zheng Quan realizes that Lao Zhang is by his side, he can't stop Mu Yun no matter what, so he immediately let go. Opened his hands and said to Lao Zhang: "He is right. If we fight on our own, one of the three armors will not be able to reach the coordinate point, but if we concentrate our efforts, at least one of the armors will be able to reach the coordinate point." go back!"

"Okay," Lao Zhang shouted loudly, "Then let me, Lao Zhang, help you open the way!"

"Boy, get ready!"

The King Kong battle armor straightened its chest, and the core engine speed on the chest soared to the highest speed. The raised fists were surrounded by a turbulent blue light in the sea water. —— Fists collided and blasted forward!

In the sea water, a fan-shaped shock wave clearly visible to the naked eye spread straight forward, and a gap was abruptly opened from the huge wave!When the dozens of red demons caught in the seawater touched the shock wave, they were instantly shaken into blood foam like an explosion, and bright red ripples appeared in the seawater, just like a real sea of ​​blood!
"It's now, boy, follow up!"

I only heard Lao Zhang's roar coming from the cockpit of the King Kong armor, and the auxiliary engines of the legs of the King Kong armor were also fully powered, making a roar of King Kong, roaring forward and rushing forward—actually treating himself as The shield, for the two battle armors behind them, resisted the reaction force of the shock wave in the water, rushed forward by themselves, and opened a way for them in the sea of ​​blood!
"Old Zhang, you..."

Mu Yun didn't have time to think about it, and immediately rushed forward with the Vajra armor, but his voice was a little choked: You must know that the distance between the fists of the Vajra armor and the fuselage is limited. How to control the direction, part of the damage of the shock wave must be eaten by the King Kong armor itself. Under this level of shock, the knights in the cockpit are bound to be seriously injured, not to mention that Lao Zhang is still fighting for them at this moment. Resists the reaction force of the shock wave in sea water.If it was a knight with a thinner body, I am afraid that blood will be sprayed in the cockpit at this moment, and he will belch directly. Even if Lao Zhang is full of muscles, he may be holding on with his breath at this moment!

In Mu Yun's impression, although Lao Zhang fought bravely, there was a hint of cunning mixed with his bravery. To open the way, he used such a brutal way, relying on his own brute strength to resist damage, and used blood to open the way for him!
This time, the King Kong battle armor charged savagely, leading the other two battle armors for more than 130 meters in the huge waves!As the shock wave spreading in the sea water gradually weakened, the pace of the King Kong armor became more and more strenuous and slow. Finally, the huge King Kong staggered and fell to one knee on the ground.At this moment, in the cockpit of the King Kong battle armor, the corners of Lao Zhang's mouth, nose and mouth are full of blood, even the blood is gushing out of his ears, but he laughed loudly: "I, Lao Zhang, can only send you here. Come down and see yours!"

"Meng Zhangfei deserves to be Meng Zhangfei!" Zheng Quan praised, "Let's leave it to Zheng!"

The last shock wave formed by the Vajra Armor has not completely dissipated. Zheng Quan has already controlled the Gale Armor to fly up, the frost blade in his hand is moving like the wind, and there are arc-shaped afterimages of sword light in the sea water. It is not weaker than above the ground!Only now did Mu Yun understand why both his and Lao Zhang's battle armors had been ravaged by the Red Devil's claws to varying degrees, but Zheng Quan's light armor with a brittle shell was unscathed -- the fast sword Zheng Quan's The quick sword danced in the sea, like a propeller meat grinder. Before the red devil's claws could reach his body, it was already ground into minced meat.Even now, these beasts seem to recognize the power of this sword dance, and they twist their bodies desperately to pass by them.An unlucky animal was rushed towards the sword shadow by the sea water, and it was inevitable. Its body, which was bigger than the Gale Armor, was cut into fish raw in an instant, and it was only a matter of putting a basin on it. table!
But at this moment, Kuaijian Zheng Quan's sword is still speeding up!Until this moment, Mu Yun really felt the fear of this famous swordsman who was smiling all day long: Zheng Quan's sword speed has reached the speed at which he broke through the butler Ji's barrage in the Battle of Bailingbao, and he is still constantly improving!

Dancing with the wind!

As the output of high-speed vibration particles on the blade reached the highest level, the spinning sword shadow actually formed a cyclone in the sea water!It was as if a horizontal tornado had suddenly risen in the sea, and it seemed that a vacuum channel had opened up in front of Mu Yun and the two of them!

"Use your full strength to keep up with my speed!"

I saw that the speed of the frost blade in the Gale Armor's hand did not decrease, and it was already shooting towards the center of the cyclone like a sharp arrow!Mu Yun was horrified, and hurriedly chased after him, only to hear Zheng Quan's breath said to him in the communicator: "Get ready, my physical strength will reach its limit in three seconds, and the next road will be difficult." It's up to you!"

Three seconds... With their current speed, they can already rush over 100 meters!Listening to the changing frequency of the beeps, Mu Yun calculated in his heart that the remaining distance was less than 100 meters, and he could reach it by himself!

Just as his mind was turning, three seconds had arrived!Mu Yun only felt that the battle armor West Wind seemed to have hit a wall, and the fuselage suddenly stagnated. The cyclone channel in the sea water had disappeared, and the strong water flow turned into a huge impenetrable wall again. They push quickly.Mu Yun hurriedly restored the balance system to stabilize the fuselage, but saw that Zheng Quan's Gale Armor was being swept backward by the torrent without any control!

Did Zheng Quan pass out in the cockpit?Mu Yun knew that Zheng Quan's operation just now had almost reached the limit of human beings, but he didn't expect Zheng Quan to calculate his own limit so accurately, and he said that three seconds would be three seconds, and there was not even a second of delay.Seeing that the unresponsive fuselage of the Gale Armor was quickly submerged in the crowd of blood-red scarlet monsters, Mu Yun, who was about to continue sprinting forward, stopped hesitantly, but heard a message from the communicator. Quan's weak voice: "If you know exactly what you want to do, don't waste time, do it quickly!"

"No matter what happens behind you, don't look back! Don't stop!"

"The last part of the journey is up to you!"

The figure of the blast armor has completely disappeared in the red tide.Mu Yun gritted her teeth, and pulled out the Bright Sword from the back of the armor Xifeng. "It's up to me then," he said in a low voice.

He closed his eyes, held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and felt the light overflow from the sword.The surrounding red tide is surging uncomfortably.Resting in the hilt of the sword was the last amethyst he carried.He's been carefully controlling its consumption, and he's been trying to avoid using the Lightsaber along the way.He knew that he still had no way to truly control the sword, as if the sword always had its own will.But at this moment, he needs this sword - no matter who has owned it in the past - to obey his orders and do what he wants it to do.

He can do it.Mu Yun told herself.If his deduction is correct, he already possessed this kind of power before he knew it-the power that the previous owners of this sword once possessed, which is why this sword has something to do with him. The reason for the resonance, that's why Li Jing let him get the sword.

He can control the sword, he can make it do what he wants it to do.

"Come on!" He murmured in his heart.Facing the huge wall made of seawater, he raised his sword, and the seawater wrapped around the battle armor Xifeng began to shake. He didn't open his eyes, but he could still feel that the light on the sword became brighter and brighter, but it didn't Not exceeding his expectations, Amethyst's energy level is declining, but it is still within his control.

He swung the sword with his eyes closed, and at the same time, a picture of the sea parting appeared in his mind, as if he had used this sword to split the sea countless times, as if this picture had already existed in his memory, just like It seems that this picture is right in front of his eyes——

Then he opened his eyes.The waves rolled to the sides in front of him, exposing the reefs on the bottom of the sea.Although he was not surprised by the spectacular sight in front of him, his heart was still beating so hard that he could barely breathe.This is just the first step.he reminded himself.He hasn't succeeded yet.The piercing beeps rang in his ears in short bursts, even faster than his heartbeat. He quickly adjusted the full power output of the armor Zephyr to the highest level, and then began to sprint forward——

Accelerate, sprint—

The coordinate point was right in front of his eyes, and the sea began to close behind him. The gray waves licked the heels of Zephyr's heels maliciously, but they never caught up with his footsteps. The core engine of Zephyr's armor roared, The hot fuselage emitted white steam in the icy sea, and was immediately left behind by his speed, like a white cloak trailing behind a battle armor.His speed was getting faster and faster, and at the moment when the sea water closed over his head, he pulled down the leg thrusters and jumped up!

The battle armor Xifeng jumped out of the sea, holding high the bright sword!

It was an extremely short moment, perhaps shorter than one-tenth of a second, but he saw it: the sea was glowing red with blood, the huge waves were under his feet, the land was behind him, and there were people standing on the hillside. Madden and the Snow Maiden beside him.

As well as the meandering team of sea people, tens of 10 people crowded in front of the towering and closed coastal defense wall, crying out in despair.

The beeps finally joined together and turned into a long, piercing beep!

"It's now! Break it for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

With Mu Yun yelling loudly, Amethyst's energy grid instantly dropped rapidly, and light burst out from the Bright Sword, quickly wrapping the entire sword body, and continuously spreading outward, even the fuselage of the armor Xifeng was also stained. There was a layer of white light, as if he had merged with the Bright Sword and turned into a huge sharp sword. The blade went straight down, plunged into the waves, and pierced into the sea——

With a dazzling light like a star, it penetrates deeply into the seabed!

There was a loud sound from the bottom of the sea, just like the roar of the sea itself. The waves were like boiling blood with countless bubbles. The armor Xifeng knelt on one knee, holding the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands.From the position where the Bright Sword was inserted into the seabed, the light exploded, and a crack of white light began to spread to both sides, getting longer and wider, as if to tear the entire sea in half——

The surrounding seawater turned into a vortex and began to pour into that gap.

I did it.Mu Yun thought to himself.So my deduction is correct, I have acquired that power at a moment that I didn't even know it.This is the answer to the question Zheng Quan asked.Now he finally knew why Li Jing accepted him as his disciple.He suddenly felt dizzy, and then realized that the west wind of the battle armor was swirling in the vortex, being sucked into the gap together with a large amount of sea water.I should do something.he thought, but he couldn't even bother to move a finger.The Bright Sword exuded pure white light, softly enveloped the armor Xifeng, he heard voices coming from the communicator, but he couldn't hear anything clearly.That kind of light was as warm and pleasant as the afternoon of the day, enveloping him completely.
