After leaving the cabin, El Erf quietly followed behind Sōsuke Xiangliang. He also saw the scene of the hijackers activating the bomb in the abdomen. After the hijackers left, Sōsuke Xiangliang opened the box and took a look at the contents. Suddenly, he revealed a heavy and complicated expression. After hesitating for a moment, he hurriedly turned and left.
After Sōsuke Xiangliang left, El Erf suddenly appeared in front of the big box containing the bomb. After opening the lid, he saw a timer connected to a complicated circuit. El Erf muttered to himself for a moment, then glanced at the direction where Sōsuke Xiangliang disappeared and began to inspect the bomb that would detonate in less than 20 minutes.
Perhaps due to the slight difference in technology, El Erf couldn't immediately determine what type of bomb this was. However, the complicated circuit wasn't a problem for him at all. He didn't rush to deal with the circuit. Generally speaking, such a detonation device had a protective measure. Removing any wrong circuit would directly cause the bomb to explode. If he wanted to remove the circuit, even El Erf would have to spend a few minutes to study the bomb.
After a few minutes, Sōsuke Xiangliang, who had left first, would probably have run off somewhere. His target, Chidori, might also have an accident because of the delay. Since it was a timer made from a chip and circuit board, it also had a password keypad for starting and stopping.
El Erf chose a simpler way to deal with the bomb. He took out his PDA and inserted a small part of the PDA. After that, he used his PDA to quickly crack the code. In less than a minute, he changed the countdown timer to minutes. The 900 seconds were easily changed to 900 minutes. The detonation time was extended by more than 10 times.
After doing this, El Erf directly turned and left. Under the night light, he began to hide in the shadows and began to search for Sōsuke Xiangliang and Chidori who were taken away by the hijackers.
Although Xiao Ran prepared faster than El Erf, he actually left the plane later. It wasn't until El Erf left that Xiao Ran appeared in the belly of the bomb. He opened the box and took a look. When Xiao Ran saw the number after the decimal point on the timer, he shook his head with a smile and turned to leave.
Unlike El Erf's mission to find and protect Chidori, Xiao Ran sneaked towards the warehouse of the air force base after leaving the plane. In Xiao Ran's memory, there should be unused second-generation AS barbarians in these warehouses. They could be used without any login information.
But in fact, Xiao Ran's purpose was not entirely to get the barbarians in the warehouse. Getting the barbarians first was just one of Xiao Ran's plans. It was necessary to obtain the barbarians in order to protect Chidori against this base's AS. Xiao Ran's real purpose was actually something else.
An AS with a Lambda- Driver. The silver AS used by Nine Dragons had long hair like parts. It looked like the AS used by an armed knight. This was Xiao Ran's real purpose. For Xiao Ran, Nine Dragons' purpose was to provide him with an AS that could temporarily be used by him in addition to promoting the plot.
Although Xiao Ran could operate both the barbarian and the M6, compared to the M9 and the third-generation AS with lambda system, the barbarian and the M6 looked advanced, but in fact, they were only used by soldiers. Xiao Ran certainly would not let go of the opportunity to obtain a better body, although Xiao Ran could not guarantee that he would be able to use the lambda system.
While Xiao Ran was sneaking from warehouse to warehouse, looking for a usable AS, especially Jiu Long's body, Sosuke Xiangliang had already contacted Mithril's side. In the process, he knocked out the person who discovered his communication. El Erf did not follow Sosuke Xiangliang at all. He determined Chidori's location in advance and hid not far away.
El Erf's location was a van truck parked on the edge of the base. The reason why he could confirm that this truck was the place where Chidori was being held was entirely because El Erf happened to see the man who brought Chidori out of the truck. Before he left, he arranged some people to guard the truck.
Although he had determined Chidori's location, El Erf did not act blindly. Since the enemy hijacked the entire plane, installed a bomb in the plane, and brought Chidori to this place, the reason was that Chidori was very useful to them. They even wanted to kill everyone in the plane and hide the fact that Chidori was captured. This was enough to prove that they did not have to worry about Chidori's safety, at least for a short time.
Xiao Ran went through warehouse after warehouse. He found no less than ten barbarian AS, but he did not find any trace of Jiu Long's body at all. This made Xiao Ran wonder if there was a mistake in his memory, or maybe Jiu Long's body was not in this base at all.
At this moment, a series of gunshots suddenly rang in Xiao Ran's ears. This made Xiao Ran clench his teeth lightly, "Sigh, has it started over there?"
Xiao Ran looked around, then quickly ran towards the warehouse where he found the AS. After entering the warehouse, Xiao Ran directly jumped onto an AS that had not been activated. He reached out and opened the cockpit of the AS, then directly jumped in.
The moment Xiao Ran sat in the cockpit of the AS, he seemed to naturally understand how to operate the body under him. It was as if he had used it many times. He completely understood every part of the body, the system, and the way to operate the body.
After pressing down the restraint armor behind the chair on his body, Xiao Ran directly reached out and ignited the body. He put his hand into the control lever, and at the same time, the body's rigid system prompt sounded in his ears.
"Cockpit door lock closed, main control system adjustment beginning … Main generator ignited, charge capacity rising beginning."
"Unlocking beginning, main joint lock unlocking, forcibly unlocking …"
Listening to the prompt in his ears, Xiao Ran seemed a little helpless. It was just a simple start up, yet it took so long. This was only the activation of the body itself. If he added in some random external equipment, the activation time would probably be even longer. If he really encountered an emergency in a war, this activation time was basically telling others to come and attack him. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was courting death.
Xiao Ran was activating his body, but Elelv had a headache. He hid at the side and guarded Qianniao, and he also discovered the appearance of Xiangliang Sōsuke. However, he never expected that just a gunshot in the truck would make Xiangliang Sōsuke, a kid who had received professional military training, panic. He directly held his pistol and rushed out in a panic. He did not even know what was going on in the truck. After using his pistol to deal with the two gatekeepers, Xiangliang Sōsuke got into the truck.
Outside the truck, the guards, including the fully-armed soldiers, who heard the gunshot, surrounded the truck where Chidori was locked up. El Erf also noticed that Sosuke Sagata had no other weapons in his hands except for a pistol. In such a situation, once the two sides exchanged fire, how could a pistol deal with so many fully-armed soldiers? He might even accidentally injure Chidori, who was also in the truck.
When he saw the soldiers surrounding the truck and shooting at it, El Erf had no choice but to raise his weapon and rush out of his hiding place with a grenade in his hand.
As soon as El Erf appeared, he threw the grenade with his thumb at the place with the most armed soldiers. He raised the submachine gun in his hand. While moving quickly, he was able to ensure that his right hand didn't shake at all. He continuously fired more than ten bullets, which accurately passed through the heads of several soldiers. The soldiers who were hit immediately fell to the ground, and a large amount of red and white liquid flowed out.
The few guys in front of the truck who were about to enter the truck suddenly turned around in the direction of El Erf. Although they turned their heads, they maintained this posture and fell to the ground after being hit by the bullets.
El Erf's movements were very fast. It could be said that after killing several people outside the truck, he had already appeared at the side of the truck door when the guy fell to the ground. He took out another submachine gun in his left hand, and the two weapons kept shooting, completely suppressing the surrounding people.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the enemy stopped firing, El Erf directly got into the truck. At the same time, he raised the weapon in his right hand and aimed the muzzle at Sosuke Sagata, who was also aiming at him with a pistol in the truck.
El Erf glanced at Sosuke Sagata and Chidori Yao who were in good condition, and then glanced at the woman who was still unconscious. He took the initiative to put down his gun and said coldly, "Are you hurt?"
