In the dense forest, a pair of eyes were quietly watching the many Gion soldiers who were sending a tightly wrapped container to the Dora transport plane.
"Found it."
From the faces of these nervous Gion soldiers, it was not difficult for Ray Mingkai to see that this should be the mysterious cargo that would appear in the secret stronghold.
However, due to Ray Mingkai's intervention and the weather, this mysterious cargo was not discovered by Ray Mingkai until now.
However, this was not much different from the original result.
"Rumble!"
The roar of an engine came from the sky.
It was the Dora transport plane again.
It seemed that after observing for a while, the Doral transport team hovering around Aputhalas finally made up their minds. They sent out another Doral transport to pick up everyone except for the mysterious cargo.
This might be Ray Mingkai's opportunity.
However,
Just as Lancelot was about to rush out of the dense forest where he was hiding, a sense of crisis suddenly exploded in Ray Mingkai's mind.
"Buzz!"
The guiding wheel immediately let out a low roar and pushed Lancelot away from his original position with a powerful force.
"Da da da da!" “
Almost instantly, a barrage of bullets whizzed through the depths of the dense forest at the same time as the gunshots. The canopy where Lancelot was originally hiding was destroyed in a few seconds.
"Was I discovered?"
Lancelot jumped a few times and flashed into the denser and darker dense forest below.
However, Lancelot's rapid maneuver did not hide his whereabouts. Instead, in the next second, the canopies on Lancelot's route suffered the same fate.
That was, they were wantonly torn apart by the barrage of bullets.
Among the broken branches and leaves flying in the sky, bright yellow trajectories kept flashing, shooting the whistling bullets deeper into the dense forest.
On the other side, Lancelot was also moving around in this barrage of bullets, moving quickly.
"Lancelot is being targeted?"
Ray Mingkai did not stop for a moment. He constantly issued new instructions to control Lancelot to quickly shuttle and dodge in this rainforest.
No matter how dense and terrifying the barrage behind him was, Lancelot, who was galloping in front, was still unscathed.
"So fast! However, I have already seen through your weakness! White Devil. "
"Click!"
As the huge magazine with faint smoke fell off the 120mm machine gun, Noris's eyes also showed a hint of understanding.
Yes.
Although Lancelot's performance before was so amazing, there was still a fact that could not be avoided.
That was that its body, which was less than five meters tall, would not and could not be fitted with too much armor. In fact, in order to ensure strong mobility, the armor might be forced to be reduced to a certain extent.
Therefore, Noris believed that the 120mm machine gun equipped Zagu I was enough to suppress Lancelot.
Of course!
Suppressed of course.
It was not that Noris did not want to kill Lancelot, but he could not do it.
In front of Lancelot, who was as agile as a monkey, the huge Zagu I was simply an extraordinarily clumsy elephant.
In this situation where the difference in mobility was so great, if Lancelot wanted to escape, the Zagu I would not be able to catch up. It could only look at the flying leaves and sand and helplessly sigh.
But now, Noris knew that Lancelot's goal was probably the X3 engine they were transporting. Therefore, with this goal in mind, Noris was confident that he could delay Lancelot so that the emergency transfer at the rear could proceed smoothly.
"Da da da da!"
A brand new magazine was reloaded. Norris took a deep breath and focused his attention on scanning the darkness of the forest. Then, he pulled the trigger.
Another barrage of bullet screens was launched, but Lancelot was nowhere to be seen in front of the barrage of bullet screens.
Noris furrowed his brows for a moment before relaxing them. Immediately after, the Zagu I put down the 120mm machine gun in its hands and took two steps back. The single eye slowly turned left and right a few times before it retreated again.
One step.
Step by step, it maintained a cautious posture as it retreated.
The 120mm machine gun in its hands was slightly lowered, and the muzzle was always ready to be raised and fired at any time.
Noris' idea was simple.
Since the Zagu I's speed and agility could not compare to Lancelot's, then he would directly use the stupidest method, which was to only defend around the escort team and buy time for the Dora transport aircraft to load.
Noris did not think that he was very good at this point, and he knew that the enemy would definitely have guessed it. But, this might be the best method that Noris could think of at the moment.
This tropical rainforest was no longer the home ground of the Zagu I, but the smaller and more mobile Lancelot's home ground.
Its height was no more than five meters, but in this tropical rainforest that was more than twenty meters tall, it was like a fish in water.
"Did it become a turtle?"
Not far away, Lancelot hid in the canopy of a big tree.
Ray Mingkai's eyes fell on the screen as he watched the thermal image of the Zagu I gradually retreating.
After a moment of silence, Ray Mingkai laughed.
"Haha. As long as you stay close to them, do you think Lancelot can't seize the mysterious goods? This, isn't it too simple? "
Lancelot flipped his hands and put the Radiation Vibroblade back into the scabbards on both sides of the cockpit. Then, Lancelot's right hand touched his waist, and the VARIS rifle that he rarely used appeared in his hand.
Lancelot raised the VARIS rifle with both hands and pointed it at Apsalas that was still hovering above the rainforest.
"Buzz!"
There was a slight buzzing sound, and the body of the VARIS rifle immediately unfolded into a bracket-like mechanism. In a few seconds, it transformed from a backward extending posture to a forward extending posture and wrapped around the muzzle.
In the blink of an eye, the bracket-like mechanism merged with the muzzle, and the barrel more than doubled from its original length of more than one meter.
At the same time, a high-precision optical scope with a precision design style popped out from the top of the VARIS rifle.
"Beep Beep!"
While the VARIS rifle unfolded into this new form, Ray Mingkai also saw a moving aperture in front of him. In just a few seconds, it quickly stopped in the center of the screen and caught Apsalas in the sky.
"Royd. Let me see how powerful your new toy is! "
This was a new weapon that Royd designed after receiving part of the MS information from the UC era, especially the information about the sniper Jim.
The small body of the Lancelot and the other KMF machines allowed them to take the initiative in certain environments, but the most important factor – firepower – was a bit of a pity.
It was not that there were no KMF machines that could achieve high firepower, but they were all concentrated in the hands of very few people. The rest of the people, especially the soldiers, used KMF machines, at best, were rocket launchers.
This kind of approach, idea, and design concept was nothing, but after coming into contact with other worlds that also used mechas for war, Royd knew.
The ideals he held on to had no end.
Therefore, Royd, who was unwilling to admit defeat, began a new round of design.
The VARIS rifle used by Lancelot at the moment was Royd's trial work after his worldview was impacted.
The VARIS rifle model 3 was a new weapon designed to adapt to and meet the multiple combat requirements in complex battlefield environments by combining various components installed on the gun body.
Now, it was time for Lancelot to use the long-range sniping ability.
However, when Ray Mingkai was ready and waiting for the Dora transport plane carrying the mysterious cargo to appear, a violent explosion suddenly came from the other side of the escort force.
At the same time, before the sound of the explosion had completely subsided, an even more intense battle followed.
"Is it Shiro Amada?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Ray Mingkai's eyes.
He didn't expect them to come so quickly.
However, when he thought about it, Apusalas in the sky was like the brightest star in the night sky. It was impossible to ignore him.
As long as he was used as a road sign, even if Shiro Amada and the others didn't know the situation here, they would probably think that the thing they were looking for would appear here.
"Then, what are you going to do? Mr. Tiger King of Gion. "
The arrival of Shiro Amada and the others didn't affect Ray Mingkai's next move. On the contrary, he was more curious about Norris's choice.
"Damn it! The Federation's main force found this place so quickly? "Norris gritted his teeth.
"Massad. How long will the loading operation take? "
A trace of hesitation flashed across Norris's face, but he still asked in the end.
"Ten, no, five minutes! It'll only take five minutes to complete. "
Massad knew the current situation was urgent, so he quickly gestured.
"Five minutes?"
Norris showed a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
Now, he was faced with a choice.
Should he turn around and face the Federation's main force, or should he stay here and guard against that terrifying small aircraft's sneak attack?
To the current Noris, these two choices were incomparably difficult.
Because, no matter which one he chose, it meant that the Doral Transport Aircraft would be exposed to another wave of enemies.
Norris couldn't take this risk.
However,
Just as Norris was in a dilemma, Ina's voice suddenly sounded.
"Colonel Norris! I'll be in charge of the Federation's main force. Although Apusalas doesn't have any weapons installed, its armor should be able to withstand for a while. "
"Miss Ina! Please don't! Our mission is only to bring the X3 back. There's no need to bring this aircraft … "
Norris paused, quickly searching for a suitable adjective in his heart, and continued, "There's no need to bring this precious experimental aircraft into a dangerous situation."
"But, but, this X3 engine is especially important to brother's research! We must bring it back! "
Ina remembered what Kenyas told her before leaving and immediately denied Norris' words. She directly lowered Apusalas' altitude and rushed towards the Gao Da that Shiro Amada was piloting like a rapidly falling meteor.
"Hey! Hey! Don't be so agitated! "
Apsaras's sudden attack startled Lei Mingkai, as well as Shiro Amada, who was fighting with the escort team.
"Captain Amada, disperse!" Leote's eyes widened as he loudly warned.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
The moment the huge Apusalas fell rapidly, it was as terrifying as a comet falling to earth.
In just a blink of an eye, Apusalas fell to the area where the sixth and eighth teams were fighting with the escort team.
Then, Ina's gaze focused and her right hand pressed a button without hesitation.
"Boom!"
A strong stream of particles rushed out from the bottom of Apusalas and created a terrifying particle storm in the narrow distance between Apusalas and the ground.
The power of this particle storm was so strong that it could instantly raze the dense forest where the sixth and eighth teams were hiding to the ground and blow away all six Gao Da.
In an instant, the area within a hundred meters with Apusalas as the center was turned into a mess.
"Seeing it with my own eyes and watching anime are two different things."
Through the sniping scope, Ray Mingkai also saw the moment Apusalas went berserk.
Although this model of Apusalas was not equipped with weapons, it could indeed take care of most threats by surprise.
"Tatatat!"
Suddenly, a burst of fire exploded in the dense forest behind Lancelot.
It was machine gun fire!
Although wood chips and leaves were flying around Lancelot, Ray Mingkai remained unmoved.
This was because he knew that the shooting wasn't aimed at him. It was just a meaningless and random shooting. In other words, the opponent did not find Lancelot's trace and was just shooting at the dense forest.
The purpose of this was not to force Lancelot out, but to stall for time.
Yes!
Apusalas suddenly went berserk and blew away the sixth and eighth teams, temporarily losing their combat power. Now, only Lancelot could pose a threat to the Dora Transport Aircraft.
As long as they could delay Lancelot, the Dora Transport Aircraft would safely take off.
However.
No matter when it was, reality was always cruel.
"Boom!"
With the X3 engine installed, the Dora Transport Aircraft lifted off.
Apusalas restrained the sixth and eighth teams, while Norris took another Zagu I to quickly close in on the area where Lancelot was. He did not hesitate to pour out all the ammunition in his hand, showing a posture of not giving up until the rainforest was razed to the ground.
"Tatatat!"
The whistling bullets frantically broke through the trees in front of them. Wood chips splashed as they brushed past Lancelot.
Seeing more and more bullets fly past Lancelot, Norris' heart calmed down a little.
As long as he continued to maintain this intensity of fire suppression, even Lancelot with excellent maneuverability would not have a chance to cause any trouble to the Dora Transport Aircraft.
Little did he know that it was just as he had said before.
The ideal was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.
Amidst this barrage of bullets, the small pure white body suddenly flipped over and raised the 2.5-meter-long rifle in its hand amidst the dense barrage of bullets.
"Tatatat! Tatatat! Boom! Boom … "
At this moment, the high-explosive bullets fired by the two Zagu I hit Lancelot without any accident, and set off a burst of explosions that was enough to destroy Lancelot.
"Did it work?!"
Norris' eyes widened slightly.
He never thought that Lancelot would actually stop and turn around at this critical moment, raise the muzzle, and assume a shooting posture.
"Isn't this courting death?"
As soon as this thought appeared, it was shattered by a beam of light that broke through the thick smoke caused by the explosion of the high-explosive bullets.
"Buzz!"
This beam of light unexpectedly broke through the smoke and flew past the two Zagu I toward the sky behind them.
"Not good! The Dora Transport Aircraft! "
Norris's eyes were suddenly filled with shock.
The next second.
The Dora Transport Aircraft with the X3 engine was like a bird with broken wings, plunging into the rainforest below.
