Steel steam and flame

"In their eyes, all the enhancements that kinetic energy armor can give us cannot even reach the most basic basic values ​​​​of the top two. This body can withstand bullets and small-range high-explosive bombs, rather than deceiving themselves. The senses and eyes, rather, in the eyes of both, are paper-like things that limit ourselves." Another vice-captain joined in, with a smile on his face. Although this kind of comfort before the battle has no real effect and cannot save people who may die later, it can at least help others find a little bit of rare comfort and peace psychologically.

"Our role is to interfere and assist, nothing else. Do you understand?" The huge man spoke again, asking the members in front of him to remember this sentence firmly, "Now the time has been set, and it happens that there are people on the airship. There is a relatively sufficient space. Once the program is debugged, I hope you will take the time to get familiar with it. Go down to the airship, join the other members, and enter the forest, and you will find that the air is solidified."

"Let me briefly summarize and explain what the captain said." The two vice-captains stood up at this time, and one of them spoke, "If there is a hierarchy for this mission, it will be the most difficult one with no chance of survival."

The words afterward are mostly reminders. When only the captain and two vice-captains were left in the room, one of the vice-captains took out the wine glasses and wine from the cupboard and filled three glasses.

"I hope we can go back together. Of course, this is probably impossible." The captain raised his cup and said, mostly with emotion.

"When we first learned that we were selected to participate in this mission, we were still very excited, thinking that this was a rare opportunity for us. Now..." In the sound of clinking glasses, the vice-captain was a little helpless, but there was no regret in his tone.

At night, about ten minutes after midnight, two small airships with all lights turned off stopped over an open area beside a river in the forest. A large number of packed weapons and ammunition, as well as nearly sixty kinetic energy armor teams, landed here smoothly.

According to the material handling personnel and order assigned on the airship, each kinetic energy armor carried different boxes and approached the agreed location. After only half an hour of progress, the entire rigorously trained team stopped in the blink of an eye and lost all movement. A burst of insect chirping echoed all around, and a bright opening opened in the darkness of the watery forest in front of the team, like a hole leading from hell to heaven, with a small door opening.

A group of people entered the artificially created temporary dome-like structure in front of them in an orderly manner. The dome structure relies on an area of ​​ancient trees as support points, and the hanging lamps always emit dazzling cold light, making the air whiten like water and making it even colder.

After laying down supplies in an open area, the three captains of the kinetic armor team disarmed their armor and went to another location under the guidance of the members waiting for them.

"Captain Sawyer, you are the last ones to arrive." As they approached, some of the thirty or so people in that position came over to greet them, lowering their voices to express their welcome.

"It's a long distance. We have to wait for the airship to pick us up, prepare all kinds of materials, and choose the appropriate kinetic energy armor module. These things take a lot of time." Sawyer leaned over and apologized, "It shouldn't be too late, Weir. gentlemen."

Weir just smiled, and then led Sawyer and the three of them to the group of more than thirty people. Eyes turned towards him one after another, as if the signal had been confirmed and the pre-war preparation process was started.

In the middle of the crowd were Sasir, Komishur, Zero and another friendly-looking male member of the Holy Guard. In the first process, Sasir spoke first, but Mishuer added on the side, again with pictures and texts drawn in advance, detailing the battle between Target and Nichols this afternoon.

Many information and nodes have time counters in seconds, and the data is more detailed to allow people who are not present to feel the actual situation when the two are fighting. The second process is for Zero to use itself as a direct sample to tell the approximate range of the target Cassia's numbers on the spot, so that more people can feel a similar sense of oppression on Zero in advance and have a true understanding of the target in their hearts. A general understanding.

Especially the situation after the scaly state, No. 0 shows it in great detail. The most basic experimental methods, such as handshakes and arm wrestling, were used to allow people around them to most effectively understand why the target is the target and why they can unite. Swordsmanship is also demonstrated, and the incisions on the dragon's body are what these people care about most. It's just that Zero can only show the speed of sword swing and the power of cutting. Even so, the results shown were enough to surprise others.

Finally, there are members of the Holy Guard who cooperate with Sasir to observe things through the dragon's perspective and senses, explaining the surgical ability development projects that the target may currently have, as well as the effects and intensity of these projects. After a detailed introduction to sound waves, relying on the senses of dragons and the analysis and interpretation of Komishur who was on the side at the time, they have basically determined that among the surgical projects to be developed, sound wave pulse is one of the important means.

It was already around 2:30 in the morning to discuss the division of labor during the roundup. It only took twenty or thirty minutes for the three teams to come together, each with their own ideas, and finally come to a conclusion. Because among the crowd, only Zero and the Dragon Knight had the conditions to fight Cassia head-on. After breaking this down, others quickly found their own positions.

They dispersed to rest in the dome structure, and it was exactly three-thirty. They are all considered elite members. They each have a clear self-positioning in their minds about what they should do during battle, and there is no need to repeatedly confirm and emphasize it.

Additionally, their mission is always to hinder, not to hunt. Negotiable points are also simplified by task content.

In the early morning, two hours after the discussion ended, there was a little dark light in the sky, but the forest remained quiet and dark. The people in the dome structure were said to be resting, but no one could actually sleep. Most of them closed their eyes, and did not even enter the semi-sleep state. They only showed the action of closing their eyes.

"Well..." I don't know how long it took, but Zero suddenly turned his head and made a confused sound that was not loud, but it did break the silence instantly. Immediately, several members of the Holy Guard and Sawyer, the captain of the kinetic armor team, waited for a while before looking in the same direction. Later, Sasir and others had roughly the same intuition.

"Alert!" The roar spread instantly, and Number Zero turned into a dark red flowing shadow. In the blink of an eye, it broke out a small opening in the blocking curtain and disappeared into the silent black behind the opening.

This small opening was like a whale's long breath, absorbing all the light inside the dome in an instant. Immediately, the absorbed light was instantly released from this gap toward the inside of the dome. The blazing white light pouring in from the gap directly overwhelmed the white light of the lamp. The next moment, the entire dome structure cracked under the impact, and the white light fell directly, filling the entire space.

"Buzzing..." The sound of fluctuations finally came slowly from a distance.
