Did the transfer vehicle come down just like that?
Just looking at the momentum of the landslide above their heads, it was as if they were all buried alive.
Should he charge in under these circumstances?
In the end, Luo Nan was not an elite who had experienced hundreds of battles on the battlefield. He instinctively analyzed the situation when he saw the collision of flint and stone and the momentum of the landslide pouring down.
The problem was that he was currently in the middle of the platoon. It was simply not his turn to make a judgment. He did not move. The heavy assault armor in front of him was pulling him to move. Behind him, Lieutenant Yan Xian was forcing him to move!
There was no need to shout to urge him. The configuration change of the platoon array was the clearest command.
Luo Nan did not resist. He made the choice that was most in line with battlefield discipline at this time. He completed a series of adjustments with the standard movements of a drill. His entire body was like an arrow shot by an incorporeal bowstring. He followed behind the heavy assault armor and charged into the flood of flames and rubble.
In this moment, Luo Nan faintly found the feeling he had when he fought with Gong Qi some time ago. Especially the blazing high temperature that distorted the surrounding air and even the form of all matter. It was extremely similar to the lava cavern that was the final battlefield back then.
But the current situation was not the same as back then, when he had the pearl of wisdom in his hands. It was far too chaotic. The whistling flood of rubble, wrapped in raging flames, continuously battered down. It was like the continuous beating of a large drum by his side. The shockwaves stirred his internal organs, rocking them back and forth.
This proved that the defensive power of the platoon battle array was still in play. The heavy assault armor that opened up the path also tore through the most destructive force of the Landslide's frontal assault. This gave Luo Nan the space to adjust his strength.
As for the transfer vehicle that looked as if it wanted to smash all the receiving personnel to death, its enormous body, which was like a heavy truck, clearly had a reverse brake in the middle of its descent.
The damage to one side of the maglev device caused the vehicle to lose balance. The rear end smashed heavily into the rock wall of the canyon, forming an even more astonishing landslide of rubble. However, it was not enough to fall straight down and lead to a tragedy of suicide.
Luo Nan did not need to be reminded to know that the time had come when the transfer vehicle did its best to adjust its position in midair.
But Luo Nan didn't need to put much effort into it. The virtual vision of his left eye already displayed a simulated route leading to the objective of this operation. It even marked out the specific methods and nodes of exertion. All Luo Nan needed to do was precisely execute.
Actually, even if he made a mistake in his execution, Lieutenant Yan Xian, who had been following him like a shadow, would certainly be his final insurance … … Luo Nan was able to clearly sense that Lieutenant Yan Xian had already chased him to a distance that was within arm's reach. Luo Nan could exert his strength from behind at any time.
Rookies really don't make people feel at ease …
The corner of Luo Nan's mouth cracked open behind the metal visor. His state of mind became increasingly clear. He began to silently count in his mind, using the rhythm of the Earth's countdown:
"Two, one … Eh?"
"Dodge!"
Yan Xian, who was behind Luo Nan, suddenly changed his orders. Luo Nan, who had already begun to twist his waist to exert strength, was forcefully knocked down by the steel body charging at him from behind.
And the already tall and sturdy torso of the heavy assault armor in front of Luo Nan swelled up several times in this instant. Its two arms came together with a bang, and its mechanical modules deformed to prop up a large shield of considerable surface area. It protected Luo Nan, Yan Xian, and the other two squad sergeants who had alertly pounced back.
Luo Nan plunged head first into the loose yet still burning layer of rubble. He couldn't see anything. But he still maintained a connection with the transfer vehicle. So he was able to clearly sense that the transfer vehicle, which had been about to finish adjusting itself, suddenly suffered an extremely powerful artillery strike from the rear!
The penetrative power and explosive power of this strike were tyrannical to the extreme. Nearly a fifth of the metal outer shell, baffles, and spare parts of the rear of the transfer vehicle were blown into smithereens. At the same time, there were at least three human bodies … … or broken limbs and fragments.
The transfer vehicle lost control in an instant. The real-time information Luo Nan received clearly showed that the vehicle's kinetic system was in disorder. The forceful braking had reduced the momentum of the vehicle's fall, but it suddenly increased explosively. The vehicle plunged down diagonally from midair, smashing into the rock layer at the other side of the canyon.
The body of the heavy truck, with the momentum of the fall, dug almost three meters deep into the wall, but it was also crazily straightening itself. Pushed by the uncontrollable power, it was like a blunt knife that cut an extremely deep crack in the burning wall. Then, it pushed against half of the rock stratum and moved forward with a loud bang.
Its direction was still toward the blocking position, but this way, it perfectly missed Luo Nan and the others, who were coming over to provide support!
Luo Nan subconsciously wanted to get up when he saw this situation, but Yan Xian, who was pressing down on his shoulder, didn't say a word. He gave Luo Nan a clear downward force, stopping Luo Nan's movements.
In the next instant, Luo Nan saw through the monitoring equipment of the transfer vehicle that smoke rose from all over the canyon. Some abnormal colors were cast down from above.
The color was a relatively dark yellowish-green ball of mucus. It caught fire the moment it came into contact with fire. Smoke rose everywhere, and it rapidly accumulated to a certain density before exploding with a rumble. The dazzling flames that were burning on the rock layer exploded into a rain of fire that filled the sky.
This rain of fire would burn and corrode a hole in the blink of an eye as soon as it landed on something solid. Moreover, there was a second explosion. It was extremely sinister.
Luo Nan's side was able to evade in time. He had the heavy assault armor blocking the outermost layer. The defensive power of the array was effectively concentrated, allowing him to avoid this disaster. It was just that the surface of the armor controlled by Jie Gang had suffered quite a bit of damage.
But on the other side, the transport vehicle had already suffered heavy damage. Its defensive power was clearly lacking. After this rain of fire, it became riddled with thousands of holes. The sinister flames that had been catalyzed were impossible to extinguish as long as they burned.
The flames followed along the outer armor of the vehicle body, continuing to spread and permeate. In the short span of a breath, the transport vehicle had truly become a train. It was like a raging burning ball of fire. It launched a desperate charge toward the fissure tunnel several hundred meters away.
"Let's go!"
This time, Yan Xian forcefully pulled Luo Nan up. Then he exploded into action, reversing his direction. He charged like a hurricane on this side of the canyon in an attempt to catch up to the transport vehicle, which was wrapped in flames.
Luo Nan used his own perspective to quickly survey the surroundings. He saw a series of muffled collisions. It was similar to the 'cannon fire' that had fiercely struck the transport vehicle before. The collisions smashed into the two sides of the rock walls. Every collision caused smoke and dust to fill the sky. Shock waves crisscrossed back and forth, pounding people's lungs and causing their skulls to shake.
Shadows streaked across the air above the canyon. There were at least a dozen or so low-flying flying vehicles and even more pterodactyl-like vicious creatures. They whistled and pierced through the air in a form of collision.
Quite a few of them turned into fireballs in the first instant. Armored soldiers jumped out of the vehicles and fell to the edge of the canyon. Some even fell to the bottom of the canyon.
As for the pterodactyls, they were the main culprits that had spat out the acid bombs. They suffered quite a bit of damage right now. Fortunately, they weren't able to drop a second wave of catalyzing poison that could have taken their lives.
There was also an enormous beetle that was the size of a heavy tank at the edge of the canyon. It was unknown when it had surged up, but it fell down like dumplings. Its enormous size was simply a devastating disaster for the already fragile canyon. It gave people the feeling that hundreds of thousands of square meters of earth and rock had collapsed in the blink of an eye.
Luo Nan had seen the Acid Pterodactyls, the Assault Beetles, and the monsters that carried out the long-range bombardment during his offline testing. He had been in the game for a long time, and he understood that these were the servants of the Magnetite Mica Jellyfish. They were terrifying monsters that were created under the dual effects of magnetization and stitching.
There was also the Hellfire Tyrant that was still in a corner of the battlefield. It was extremely likely that this was the result of the third and most mysterious ability of the Magnetite Mica Jellyfish, the Dimensional Gate.
This was the might of a Senior Monarch level Magnetite Mica Jellyfish ….
Uh, he was thinking too far ahead.
But these things before his eyes were undoubtedly attracted by the transport vehicle. The intensity of their battle had already exceeded the norm. Even with Luo Nan's relatively meager knowledge, he was able to determine that this represented the tyrannical Senior Monarch level life form that occupied the clouds. It was currently casting its attention in this direction.
There was no doubt that the base was mobilizing troops as well. But the space-time fortress was damaged, and the frontlines were in a state of chaos. The response was inevitably a beat slower.
Right now, the natural rock layer region of the Blazing Canyon was close to the Bio-077 module. It was on the verge of collapse. Not only were the flames of the canyon not extinguished under the surging flood of earth and rock, but they exploded once more. Though they didn't turn into a rain of fire, the impact force was still extremely tyrannical.
Luo Nan, who had already turned back at high speed, felt high-temperature flames pounce on his back. His exoskeleton armor was about to melt.
At this time, metal clanged. The heavy assault armor that Jie Gang piloted was like a sturdy wall. It forcefully inserted itself between the gushing flames and the retreating Luo Nan and the others, isolating them from the high temperature and the shockwave.
On the other side, the other heavy assault armor did the same. It protected the other light armor infantry of the squad, blocking at least a portion of the attack. In an instant ….
Then, this temporarily formed defensive array was wrapped up by the dazzling flames and shockwave of the explosion. It was on the verge of collapse.
And after the impact of the raging flames, an even more deadly and vicious enemy was about to attack.
Luo Nan couldn't pay attention to the surging heatwave behind him. He just stared fixedly at the transport vehicle in front of him that was already beyond recognition. The maintenance plan that Gou Ye and Xian Zhu had prepared in advance had long since become a pile of meaningless symbols under these circumstances. Most of the information that Luo Nan had forcefully stuffed into his brain was about to be turned to ash along with the flames wrapping around the vehicle ….
Yan Xian was still leading Luo Nan in pursuit, but he didn't have any effective orders. It was easy to imagine that the impromptu conversation group he was in certainly didn't have any clear plans.
In fact, under these circumstances, it was unknown whether or not the freezing device, which had harsh requirements for maintaining the environment, would still be working normally ….
No, it was still working!
Luo Nan's breathing grew more and more hurried as he madly sprinted to his limits. At this moment, his brain was constantly refreshing the real-time monitoring data of the transport vehicle, even though it was becoming more and more incomplete, more and more blurry and chaotic.
Speaking of which, this wasn't much from Luo Nan's perspective. He wasn't an expert when it came to the mechanical structure of the vehicle. His true domain of superiority lay in the level of configuration that was above the material substance ….
In Luo Nan's eyes, the core configuration of the current transport vehicle was extraordinarily complete.
Perhaps this description needed to be extended to an even broader domain.
