Machine War: Infinite Frontier

The three supply boxes are not big enough to last five people for two or three days, so if you can't find supplies in these few days, it will probably be very difficult in the next few days.

Three boxes were assigned to three people and hung behind them. Xiao Yun and Leonard went into battle lightly.

But where to go in a wasteland is a matter of luck. This time is a completely different start from any other world before. Although Ling Yi Ling can fly up to the sky with Queen Armor to see if they can When you discover others, others will naturally discover them. Now that you don't know what the situation is, Xiao Yun thinks it's best to keep a low profile. It won't be too late to observe the situation first and then make arrangements when necessary. Now, he can only choose first. Let’s go in one direction first and then talk about it.

"It's such a wasteland." Shumu Zhuque looked at the same scenery as far as the eye could see and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "It feels like the entire surface of the earth has been destroyed, not to mention human towns are like living things. There are no traces.”

Leonard didn't know what he had been doing. Although he kept moving forward with everyone, he was actually busy with other things relying on the auxiliary computer.

After Shumu Zhuque said these words, Leonard suddenly spoke: "Although I don't want to think like this, because it will make our next actions more difficult, but we can look at it based on the facts. We have to accept this possibility, and it is a very high possibility.”

Xiao Yun asked: "What have you discovered?"

"There are some discoveries."

Leonard stopped and looked up at the sky. The sky was not the normal blue but seemed to be polluted with another color.

"Although I couldn't connect to any network, I could indeed receive a very weak signal, and I felt like there was something in the sky."

Xiao Yun also looked up, but no matter how much he zoomed in, he couldn't see anything at all.

"keep going."

Xiao Yun shook his head and continued walking. Shumu Suzaku patted Leonard and followed Xiao Yun's footsteps.

Until they climbed over a mountain, Suzaku was instantly frozen by the scene in front of him, staring blankly at the other side of the mountain.

Xiao Yun also stopped beside Suzaku and looked forward. He paused and said slowly: "It seems that I was lucky enough to find the ruins of a city, but it seems to be a few years old."

Leonard began to analyze the picture, and slowly said through various analysis results: "No, it shouldn't be too long."

The city in front of them cannot be said to be very huge, but at least it can be regarded as a medium-sized city. The city that appears in Xiao Yun's eyes is already in ruins, with potholes and collapsed high-rise buildings everywhere. It is full of large and small deep pits, and you can see the remnants of the city, but more often than not, there is nothing left.

"The attack should have come from the sky. It was a very terrifying attack. The first wave of attacks destroyed the city and then the entire city was evaporated almost instantly, leaving only an empty desolation."

After Leonard finished speaking, he turned and looked in the direction he came from: "I'm afraid it's the same in other places. The surface of this planet suffered a terrible attack that almost destroyed everything on the ground, turning the earth into scorched earth with nothing but stones. There’s nothing left.”

Xiao Yun pointed to a giant 100-meter pillar still standing in the ruins of the city: "Is that the remains of a space elevator?"

"According to the analysis, there is more than 95% possibility." Leonard nodded slightly and said: "So there is really something in the sky. If the human beings on this planet perish due to an attack that destroys the entire surface, there will be no network. It makes sense, and those weak signals are probably sent by some remaining facilities. "

Xiao Yun groaned: "Go and take a look, maybe you can find some valuable information."

The five people jumped directly from the top of the mountain and quickly headed towards the giant steel pillar.

Shumu Zhuque sounded puzzled: "What happened? Such a city can at least accommodate millions of people. Could it be that the entire city was evaporated in an instant?"

Leonard's tone was calm: "It should have been a sudden attack. Even if I was prepared in advance, I don't think anyone would be safe from an attack that could affect the entire landmark. Even if there are people still alive, they will be very few. They are blindly searching for the entire planet." It will probably be very difficult for humans who are still hanging on."

Ling Wu and Ling Yi at the front suddenly stopped. This reaction also made Xiao Yun and the others stop and show the same vigilance.

"underground!"

Ling Yi gave a calm reminder and instantly jumped up and took out the weapon from behind.

At the same time that Ling Wu started dancing, several other people also left their spots and jumped up, using various means to quickly hide in higher places.

Numerous gaps suddenly appeared on the ground, and unknown plant-like but extremely weird life forms with obvious biological characteristics emerged from the ground, followed by countless reptiles with compound eyes. .

"Is this!? Zytophthora?"

Ling Wu's expression was dull for a moment, but the movements of his hands did not stop. He fired directly at the countless reptiles that emerged from the ground. These insects had green shells, sharp teeth, and were far taller than ordinary people. Bullets falling on these bugs can easily pierce their carapace and splash out clouds of blood.

Ling Yi affirmed: "No, it's something else, a disgusting spore parasitic life."

"Fortunately, I can handle it if I can break through the carapace."

Seeing this, Shumu Suzaku was not willing to waste bullets. He drew out his special physical long sword and rushed towards the ground. He chopped melons and vegetables one by one, and quickly cleared a large area.

Xiao Yun, on the other hand, focused his attention on the plant-like objects that popped up. What was a little embarrassing was that it was difficult for ordinary bullets to effectively kill such larger targets.

"Hey, trouble."

After several people jointly killed dozens of bugs, the ground suddenly began to shake, as if something big was coming out of the ground. Undetectable ripples spread from the equipment on Xiao Yun's combat uniform. Densely dense yellow targets under the ground suddenly appeared on the heads-up display screens of Xiao Yun and others.

"Why are there so many?"

Shumu Suzaku quickly stopped fighting and dodged quickly. According to the feedback given by the detection system, the entire ground was now filled with such bugs. The number was terrifying, not to mention the individuals, which were getting bigger and bigger. The largest ones were more than ten meters long.

"Ling Wu, Suzaku takes the boss and Lord Leonard and leaves, leave the rest to me."

Ling Yi threw the supply box behind him in the direction of Ling Wu. A dazzling light burst out from his body, and in just a blink of an eye, he changed into another appearance and completed his outfit.

After putting on the armor, Ling Yi spread his arms on his chest and began to gather energy. After being reminded, Xiao Yun and others quickly ran away and ran towards the direction of the giant pillar without looking back.

Ling Yi completed charging and fired a cannon shot towards the ground, shattering the ground and causing a huge explosion.

Feeling the explosion behind them, Xiao Yun and the others did not look back. They could only fully believe that Ling Yi could defeat all the enemies. Of course, they had no doubts about this in their hearts. The entrance and exit of the giant pillar could no longer be opened, but it could not stop Xiao Yun and the others from forcing the door open and directly breaking through a gap to get inside.

The outside of the giant pillar looks dilapidated, but the inside is not very good either. It is dark and no facilities are functioning properly. The walls and ceilings are collapsed everywhere, but compared to the situation outside, it is considered to be quite intact.

Xiao Yun and Leonard were also looking for available equipment immediately. A few minutes later, Ling Yi emerged from the gap, released the combat status, and landed behind Xiao Yun.

"Boss, everything is solved."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xiao Yun nodded and tried to start the available equipment found with Leonard, but unfortunately there was no energy supply and even a simple start was not possible.

"Can the energy of the combat suit be used to power these facilities?"

Leonard shook his head slightly and said: "You can give it a try, but don't have too many expectations. I don't think the energy of the combat uniform alone can support the equipment inside, and it is still unclear whether these equipment are damaged. , this kind of facility should also have a backup power supply... It’s just that there are so many reptiles nearby. I suspect that those bugs may need to absorb the energy of this place. After all, we have been here all the way and walked for several hours. I met a reptile just after arriving at this place.”

"If the backup power supply is hidden deep underground..." Leonard looked at Xiao Yun and said, "Then if we want to get useful information from these devices, we will probably have to face more reptiles. I think I have to find a way to dismantle the equipment and have no choice but to rest here today.”

Xiao Yun also knew that there was no other way, so he nodded and said: "Suzaku will go up to half the night, and Lingwu will go to the next half of the night."

Setting up camp here directly was no other option. Xiao Yun walked to the gap and looked outside. He was silent for a while and suddenly said: "Leonard, speed up."

Several people began to rest, only Leonard was busy. As soon as Xiao Yun took off his helmet, he felt a wave of intense heat, which made him feel uncomfortable. He could only eat emergency food, compressed biscuits, energy bars and small snacks. Water beads, don’t worry about the taste. At least it’s much better than instant noodles and the like.

As the night gradually darkened, Xiao Yun also found a place to lean back and slowly closed his eyes and began to recharge his batteries.

After all, it is still unknown what will happen next, and maintaining the best condition is also a qualified quality that a warrior should have.

Xiao Yun was dozing off when Suzaku pushed him awake: "My lord, my lord."

"Huh?" Xiao Yun wiped his mouth and looked at Shumu Suzaku sleepily: "Is it my turn to keep vigil?"

"No, sir." Shumu Zhuque felt helpless, pulled Xiao Yun to the gap and pointed in one direction: "There is someone there."

Xiao Yun suddenly woke up and stared in the direction Shumu Suzaku was pointing. After looking for a long time, he didn't see anything. It was only after Shumu Suzaku handed the helmet to Xiao Yun that he could see clearly.

A figure covered by a cloak was slowly moving forward in the darkness. You could vaguely see the big white legs that were blown up by the strong wind.

"Is there really someone, it seems to be a woman, without any clothes?"

Xiao Yun looked at the people present. Except for Leonard, who didn't care about it, Ling Wu and Ling Yi also came together.

"BOSS, I'll bring her here."

Xiao Yun nodded: "Be careful, there are three taboos when traveling in the world."

A bunch of people looked at Xiao Yun with question marks on their faces: "????"

Even Leonard looked up and seemed to be wondering what the so-called Jianghu and the three taboos were. Jianghu understood it well and Leonard probably understood what it was anyway, but the three taboos?

Xiao Yun said in a deep voice: "A woman walking alone, a woman walking alone with no clothes on in the middle of the night, a woman walking alone in the desert without any clothes on in the middle of the night, Ling Wu, you go and talk about it first It’s not surprising that there are so many people here.”

Leonard's breathing became chaotic, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he lowered his head and started working.

Shumu Suzaku thought about it and agreed. There was no simple woman he knew.

Ling Yi remained silent and didn't know what to say.

Ling Wu felt deeply that if she were to become that woman, it would probably be very dangerous for others.

"I understand, BOSS, let's invite him properly first."

Ling Wu jumped directly from the gap that was tens of meters high, and quickly ran on the ground towards the woman who mysteriously appeared here. Xiao Yun noticed that Ling Wu stopped far away and headed towards the woman. shouted the direction.

The two people slowly approached each other, and their voices were synchronized to the ears of Xiao Yun and others.

Ling Wu: "Hello, I'm Ling Wu, do you need any help?"

A gentle female voice: "I...I...have nothing to help you with. Thank you. Do you know what happened here during the day?"

Ling Wu: "Well, there are a lot of strange bugs emerging from the ground, but we have cleaned up all the bugs that ran to the ground, but it is still very dangerous here. You'd better not run around. We are right over there. It’s not safe for you to camp on the tower alone. Go to our camp to rest and have something to eat.”

The gentle female voice hesitated: "That..."

Ling Wu: "It doesn't matter. My boss asked me to invite you. Are you someone who lives nearby? It just so happens that we also have something we want to ask you about. Come, let me hold you."

The gentle female voice said in surprise: "Ah... no no... no need."

"It doesn't matter. Did you encounter any problems? If you have any difficulties, you can come to us."

Shumu Suzaku looked at Xiao Yun: "This... wouldn't Zero Ball be too friendly?"

"She probably rarely interacts with others." Xiao Yun smiled slightly and said, "Okay, being friendly is not a bad thing. It's my style of doing things. Don't scare the other person when they come."

In fact, Xiao Yun already knew what kind of world this was when he saw the bug today. When the scene was broadcast back through Lingwu in real time, Xiao Yun probably knew who the person in front of him was, but he was not sure. Too many impressions. (End of chapter)
