Steel steam and flame

"You are supporting from behind. The enemy's destruction of the steam furnace not only caused the mine base to lose power, but also probably relied on the temperature of the steam to disable the temperature perception of everyone, including themselves." While Patrick was speaking, several more people came from Rushing over from behind the mine, "The steam impact range is very wide, radiating about half of the mine. Lieutenant Colonel Cromwell has asked the people in the engineering department to fully operate the air purification system of the entire base. He just wants to completely make this I think it is impossible for the temperature in half of the mines to drop in less than two or three hours. We definitely have an advantage in numbers. This is something the enemy needs to find a way to avoid in a short time, and the steam furnace is most likely to be their countermeasures.”

Looking forward, Patrick's eyes were filled with torrents of steam, and he couldn't see anything except with his keen senses. But in his perception, he always felt that there was a huge deviation in something, making him feel uneasy and uncertain. To sum up, it was the experience and additional sense of danger that Patrick gained from surviving various missions and battles with various surgeons in the more than ten years since he became a surgeon.

"Captain Janet, you'd better wait here and don't move around. It won't be too late to inform you after we go to judge the situation at the steam furnace. Soon, other parts of the mine base will definitely be attacked. , it would be more appropriate for you to leave it to deal with it in the past.”

After speaking, the huge strange figure became blurred in Janet's observation window, and the next moment it was completely integrated into the gray steam under the light. Seven or eight people followed Patrick's footsteps, and their backgrounds disappeared one by one under Janet's gaze.

Behind him, several auxiliary armors whose front bodies were exposed to metallic luster were lined up at the side of the mine, waiting for Janet's orders.

Asking them to wait, Janet immediately pressed the communicator to call another team in other mines. When the steam shock came, she clearly heard the explosion and the sound of heavy machine guns. After a few breaths, a burst of disturbing electronic noise completely wiped out the luck in Janet's heart.

Breathing out a breath, Janet ordered the remaining people to set up a defensive formation and wait for news from Patrick and others ahead.

Tonight is still a night sky with stars and large rain clouds mixed together, and the visibility has not improved significantly compared to the previous few days.

In a dense forest on the Mine Mountains, Evan's body was close to the trunk of a big tree. The branches and leaves in front of his sight had long been cleared, and the bright red cross pupils that seemed to glow in the darkness were staring in the direction of the mine. This state has lasted for dozens of minutes, and there is still nothing that can be called a signal in the captured light.

"Wimmer, how are you doing over there?" Evan blinked his eyes that had been looking far away for a long time, and contacted Wimmer to ask.

"Nothing has been found yet." Weimer was quite far away from Evan. The two men each led a team to attack different anti-aircraft weapon launch platforms. After removing them, they met at the last launch platform and then evacuated.

"There are still a few hours until seven o'clock in the morning, and we have enough time. Mr. Soriato definitely needs some preparations." Weimer's words contained a lot of comfort. For some reason, he was in the air defense not long ago. The shock experienced inside the main base quickly disappeared. Together with the overflowing self-confidence given by Soriatu and the team behind him at that moment, it also decreased rapidly at this moment.

It was most likely due to the fact that the team failed to keep up, as well as the quantity and quality of the enemies they faced at this moment. Weimer thought about the reason for this phenomenon in himself. He looked at the team lurking behind him, and felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Many of them are destined to become nutrients for the plants on the mountains, most likely including themselves.

"Don't worry and wait." Wimmer felt that all he could say was, "At this moment, we can only choose to believe..."

The ground shook, and Evan and Wimmer, who were standing on the big tree, felt this highly enhanced shaking at the same time. The branches and leaves around me made a rustling sound, just like the last attack.

"Evan!" Weimer opened his eyes wide and stared straight ahead, "Do you feel it?"

There was no reply, and all Evan's attention was focused on capturing a large area under the night sky. After a few breaths, his call came over the communicator: "Five o'clock direction!"

Wimmer immediately clicked on his watch, and after aligning twelve o'clock with the reference direction, he looked away. In the night sky, a huge gray column slowly rose. As it went higher, the column became brighter and brighter, and its volume also expanded rapidly in a very short period of time.

A mushroom steam explosion cloud that gradually darkened from top to bottom was completely displayed in the eyes of Evan and Wimmer within a few seconds. It wasn't until this moment that a low roar like raindrops came over weakly.

"It's a steam furnace." Weimer remembered the important location that was specially marked on the map. "Evan, let's start taking action. I wish you good luck. I hope to see you at Target Three in half an hour. Your figure.”

"Same for you." After saying that, the two of them cut off the communication at the same time. At different locations, the two teams rushed towards their respective goals.

Cassia was picking up useful things on the scattered corpses. The environment full of high-temperature steam became a natural fighting place for him. His body was not afraid of the surrounding temperature, and the obstruction of his line of sight was dispensable under the sound wave detection and had no impact at all.

Her waist was once again filled with eight steel-cased bombs. While there was still a little time, Cassia walked to several auxiliary armors that had been damaged by the pneumatic sword and started to dismantle them. Although it was only for a very short time, the three armors in this team still left an impression on him. It was different from the ones encountered by the king's force. Both in terms of quality and appearance, they were much stronger than the four they saw for the first time. This is demonstrated by its ability to withstand the brief high-pressure shock released from the steam storage tank head-on.

Perhaps the explosion of the steam storage tank left a bad memory on his body. After Cassia eliminated the team, he quickly found cover and hid.

The effect of destroying the steam furnace was much better than he expected, at least the impact of this intensity was not within his prediction.

The sound of footsteps coming from behind made Cassia exhale and approach the ten figures to the intersection in front of the lounge. Someone was giving instructions, and half of the people separated and slowly approached the steam furnace. The remaining half, knowing the situation of the team here, took out a piece of something from their backs and blocked it in front of them. Get ready for formation soon.

After getting closer, Cassia "saw" clearly that it was a folding shield. And from the opponent's way of advancing, it is not difficult to find the shadow of the empire's training method. These are usually listed as elective courses in military schools, that is, they are the kind of subjects that you are given textbooks and you can read them when you go back to rest. It is estimated that many people will not open even one page, but for someone like Cassia who has nothing to do but drink and read, at least these books do consume some of his time.
