Chapter 84: Start with victory

No matter how fierce the war is, life must go on.

"Mars Express" did not stop publishing because of the arrival of the war. On the contrary, for most ordinary people hiding in their homes, basements and refugee gathering places in the suburbs, it has become their way to understand the progress of the war with the help of radio, television and newspapers.

The only thing I focus on every day.

By this time, paper media could no longer be distributed. However, with the help of ubiquitous wireless civilian networks and a handheld portable computer, you can still read "Mars Express". And the videos shot on the spot,

It is the guarantee for "Mars Express" to compete with online TV stations.

Zhang Kai has always felt that Puluo Town is his blessed place.

This Mars Express reporter, who was worried about being fired just a few days ago, rose to prominence because of his exclusive report on the news that Tian Xingjian played nine games in a row. Now he is the team leader of the Mars Express news team and the deputy editor-in-chief of the editorial department.

.

Now, he is lying on the window sill of an office on the 120th floor of the Haijiao Commercial Building in Puluo Town, recording everything that happens in Puluo Town with a camera.

This building located in the west-central part of Puluo Town belongs to the sphere of influence of the newly established Mutual Aid Alliance. Because it has not been affected by the war, every office here is packed with people.

Some of these people are employees who originally worked in the building, but stayed here for various reasons. Some are homeless people scattered from various places. - In the central city, there are no complete blocks anymore.

.Every street and every building is a battlefield.

Looking from the building, there are many people in the space city and residential buildings not far away. The war is raging outside, and people with nowhere to go can only stay at home and gamble their luck, praying that the shells will not come to them.

It's very helpless and very realistic. Even if you are going to die, it is far better to die at home and be hit by a shell at an unknown time than to die outside.

Now, everyone is huddled on the windowsill, quietly watching everything happening in the distance.

Their eyes were horrified and numb. No one knew how long they could stay here, nor did they know at which second their life would end abruptly.

In the distance, the mechas, as red as the tide, were wreaking havoc. It was a completely inhumane massacre! Corpses were everywhere wherever they passed. They not only killed soldiers, but also civilians. There was no threat to any building.

Residential buildings became the target of their random show of force.

Massacre, looting, arson!

Seeing the living lives in the distant blocks falling silently, and blood flowing into rivers, the men bit their lips, and the women couldn't help crying. They had never seen hell. And now, they

I saw it - a red hell full of fire and blood!

The red demon tide is surging towards this side.

All eyes were focused on Echo Street, on the dozens of black mechas in front of the long line.

The sound of prayers in Zhang Kai's ears never stopped.

Everyone is praying, praying that those black mechas can block the red demonic tide. Even though the disparity in numbers between the two sides is so huge. Even though people know that their prayers are a luxury, they still pray with all their hearts.

——That is already their last hope.

Will that thin line of defense collapse?

The craze of red mechas chased the people who were fleeing in panic, getting closer and closer to Echo Street.

Finally, the tide turned at the T-intersection and rushed towards Echo Street. Amidst the loud sounds of guns, explosions and screams, the black mechas remained silent without any movement. They were like a huge stone fortress.

The lifeless levee is waiting for the flood to come.

The crowd running at the front passed through the defense line lined up with black mechas. The dense bullets and shells bit them hard. Some people kept falling down while running.

Violently red, silently black. In this silent scene, the two sides did not have any conflict. The red mecha did not attack the defense line, and the black mecha had no intention of taking action. Until, a red mecha was rampant and arrogant.

Throwing a corpse in front of the black mecha.

Everyone's hearts almost sank to the bottom of the sea at that moment. They stood higher, so they could see further. In the distance, red mechas swarmed in and filled their sights. Everyone knew that the arrogant

The red mecha was provoking, but no one showed any anger at all. Instead, there was only endless sadness.

Unless those black mechas are lunatics, they can only stand there and maintain that thin line of defense.

At that moment, there was deathly silence. In everyone's eyes, time seemed to have stagnated, and only the red mecha strutting back in the pupils was left.

Zhang Kai mechanically zoomed in on the camera... He heard someone whispering beside him, a voice that was almost crazy.

"Kill him, kill him!"

This sound is like a magic spell.

At that moment, Zhang Kai seemed to be in a trance and heard countless such voices. Among them, including himself... That was not expectation, it was just a way of venting.

No one expected that a few seconds later, the curse would come true.

No matter how many years pass, Zhang Kai will never forget the scene that made every cell in his body boil with excitement.

In the close-up shot, an energy cannon hit the red mecha.

Immediately afterwards, there was another... milky white energy cannon ball of light like a torrential rain, and dozens of energy cannon shells hit the same target cleanly!

The violent explosion was deafening, and the white light flashed by the explosion was as dazzling as the exploding stars in the universe. The thick black smoke rolled upwards with dust, like a huge mushroom, and red flames rolled out from the thick smoke.

...Everyone was dumbfounded.

Immediately, a hot and hearty feeling surged out from the bottom of the heart, mixed with a stream of hot blood rushing straight to the forehead - there is nothing more pleasurable than this. People watched with dazzled eyes at this mind-catching and soul-stirring thing.

The light was shining! No one was willing to blink! Everyone's face was sickly flushed, and their whole body was shaking with excitement.

Zhang Kai opened his mouth and wanted to shout something, but in the end he hit the window sill with his fist.

The camera panned into the distance... through the thick smoke of the explosion. On the other side of the intersection, hundreds of bloody mercenary infantrymen could be vaguely seen with stunned expressions on their faces.

Several red mechas with thumbs up were frozen there, looking so ironic in the reflection of the exploding flames in the center of the street.

A few seconds ago, they were laughing and applauding for their companion's unbridled provocation. A few seconds later, they were slapped loudly in front of them - the companion who was called a fool by others had already lined up.

In front of the formation, he provoked me to seek death, but he was unceremoniously fulfilled!

The silence of the forty black mechas turned out to be not cowardice, but contempt! Under their armors were hidden even more ferocious energy cannons. Without saying a word, they didn't even glance at the more than a hundred fire elementals on the field.

Forty cannons were aimed at one person, just like playing group bowling, just for fun!

Is there any greater humiliation than this?

Since there was no order from Caudle, nor did they expect that the dozens of mechas would dare to ignore the threat of hundreds of fire elements and open fire brazenly, the bloody mercenary soldiers present could not help but become temporarily distracted.

And this loss of consciousness soon turned into a state of confusion.

The energy muzzles of the black mechas in front of them have once again gathered light and electric sparks. The machine cannons on their shoulders have also begun to rotate silently but horribly. Under the armor with holes in their waists, missile launchers have been ejected. One after another red heads have been ejected.

The white ground missile is emitting smoke...

Time seems to have frozen.

What was frozen was the communicator of each member of the Scarlet Mercenaries...except for a burst of harsh noise, there was no other sound.

There is no command and no coordination.

Before many people could understand what was happening, they were covered in overwhelming artillery fire and missiles.

The broken limbs of the infantrymen were thrown into the sky in the explosion, and the energy shield of the mecha was like a candle lit in a violent storm.

"Defense formation, spread out!" The commander of the first company of the third battalion of the Scarlet Mercenary Armored Assault Regiment, who was the supreme commander of this intersection at the moment, shouted desperately, trying to organize his men to fight back.

However, the only answer he received was the piercing scream in the communication channel, and his mecha computer also flashed red amidst the beeps - the automatic fire control system failed, the auxiliary control system failed, and the radar system failed...

....

What made his eyes dizzy even more was that at the moment when the bloody mercenaries fell into chaos, forty black mechas suddenly started up - they were charging!

"Defense!" The company commander switched to the mecha's loudspeaker and screamed, which was drowned in the violent explosions.

In just an instant, the black steel torrent cut into the ranks of the bloody mercenaries with lightning speed, causing a bloody storm in the sky.

The sporadic and shapeless counterattack firepower of the red mecha was completely ignored in the haste. The mixed shells that were invincible when attacking the merchant alliance's armed forces fell on these black mechas, but only raised the blue energy shield.

It was just a ripple. The chaos in that moment had already destined their outcome.

Viewed from the air, the black torrent piercing the group of red mechas was like a steel knife stabbing into tofu. A stream of ions was drawn on the blade of the armor-breaking ax in their hands, and the disk on their left arm lit up flat.

Like a mirror-like light shield, the wave-splitting shield fell with an axe, and the red mechas were chopped to the ground like melons and vegetables.

A red mecha was retreating rapidly, its onboard hybrid cannon roaring desperately, spraying out a line of bullets. In front of it, a black mecha rushed forward silently, silent and ferocious.

The red mecha's crazy close-range shooting did not stop the black mecha's advance. The mixed shells hit the black mecha, making a series of explosions. Amidst the smoke and flames, the black mecha broke out of the screen and broke the armor in its hands.

The ax turned into a stream of light and pointed directly at the chest of the red mecha.

"Level suppression!"

This was the last thought that flashed through the mind of the red mecha warrior.

Even until his death, he didn't understand why there was a mecha here that could level-suppress his own fire element.

The ion armor-breaking ax broke through the cockpit armor of the fire element, and broke out from the back of the mecha, bringing out a shower of flesh and blood.

He stepped on the red mecha with his feet and pulled out the ax, raised it above his head and pointed at the sky. The fat man, who had already been angered by the bloody mercenary's massacre for no reason, spat coldly: "Do what they just did.

Do!"

Fatty has killed many people, but he has never raised his butcher knife against innocent civilians! Forced into the war, what he hates most is this kind of unreasonable killing!

For such people, Fatty always has only one way to teach him a lesson - tit for tat!
