Chapter 281: Chapter 180: You have been locked on by a Fixed Star Level 8 missile, please wait to die immediately!_2
Finally, we can start mining again.
All the residents are working with great enthusiasm. The sight of over 3,000 people swinging their pickaxes to mine is extremely impressive. His train is likely the one with the most survivors in the "Zombie Basin".
The main reason is that he doesn’t have to worry about not being able to support them.
They all mine.
For other trains, the pattern is mining, fleeing, mining, fleeing.
His process is mining, mining, mining, a Corpse Tide comes, kill the Corpse Tide, continue mining.
Basically, there’s never a scene where they can’t find any ores for too long and get impoverished by it.
Every resident wears orange-red clothes. Viewing from a distance or a high place, despite being in the Doomsday, with no signs of modernity around, the air filled with desolation and silence, these residents and the train parked beside them...
Still give off a vibrant feeling.
Like seedlings sprouting after a wildfire has passed.
A sliver of hope amidst disaster.
Soon——
The quantity of "Red Heart Rock" on the train panel reached 300,000. Chen Mang immediately consumed 280,000 units of Red Heart Rock to forge the first "Thunderbolt" mecha for the Fixed Star, and although it was noon and the residents were still working...
He wanted to see what the Thunderbolt mecha looked like sooner, so he had people below bring up each piece of mined Red Heart Rock immediately.
He then looked out of the window at Zhang Yi, who was getting familiar with the "Thunderbolt" mecha, and leaned back in his chair with a satisfied smile.
Level 7 armor, Level 7 Thunder Battlehammer.
In the future, it can continue to upgrade at the "Mecha Research and Development Center", directly upgrading the armor to Level 8.
This is the heritage of his Fixed Star.
Any random person jumping off can single-handedly challenge a Level 8 train.
...
"Thunderbolt" mecha.
A violent type close-combat mecha.
meters tall.
It’s the tallest mecha within the Fixed Star, and in an inactive state, it’s the size of a briefcase.
The mecha’s armor is entirely pitch black with a deep blue lightning bolt running from the head to the abdomen, like a lightning-struck wood, standing there alone gives an extremely terrifying sense of intimidation.
Sitting in the cockpit, Zhang Yi was learning and getting skilled in using this mecha.
"Buzz buzz..."
The "Thunderbolt" mecha leapt into the air, several nozzles on its back and palms simultaneously erupted blue flames, and then two steel wings on its back suddenly unfolded, each with four tail sprays embedded underneath.
With the 8 tail sprays under the steel wings, the entire mecha has a total of fourteen tail sprays.
The whole mecha quickly flew into the distance at an extremely fast speed, disappearing on the other side of the hill in the blink of an eye.
"It can fly, it can fly, this damn mecha can actually fly!!!"
Biaozi, who stood beside the train, watched this scene only feeling a squeezing of his heart, as if he couldn’t catch his breath, looking at the Thunderbolt mecha that disappeared over the hill, his eyes turning red almost to the point of tears.
Damn it!
This mecha can fly!
Flying has always been one of humanity’s greatest dreams. Although trains can fly too, sitting inside a train and controlling a mecha to soar in the sky are completely different concepts!
He couldn’t imagine how happy he would be if he were driving that mecha!
He never felt breathless pain like this even in the extreme difficulty of "Dragon Castle"!
...
Meanwhile, Zhang Yi, controlling the "Thunderbolt" mecha flying in the high sky, his eyes were full of excitement and shock as he tried various tactical poses in the air.
He chose to overlook the information constantly flashing on the iris chip.
"Warning, warning, you are about to fly out of Fixed Star’s contact range."
"Warning, warning, please turn back immediately."
"Warning, war... Damn it, if you keep flying, I can’t connect with you anymore, what the hell are you doing, defecting?"
"If you don’t come back soon, I’ll directly take you out with an 8-level missile, believe it or not?"
The next moment——
A line of scarlet text flashed across the iris chip again.
"You have been locked by Fixed Star’s 8-level missile, please prepare to die, please prepare to die!"
Only then did Zhang Yi, who finally reacted, hear the familiar voice of President Ai from the cockpit speakers, hurriedly apologized, and turned back in the air to continue flying towards the green dot representing Fixed Star on the map.
Isn’t President Ai an AI?
It can actually curse now.
...
"Whew..."
In the "Armor Research and Development Center" of carriage No. 2, Ai plopped down on the ground, angrily taking deep breaths to calm his emotions, unsure if it was because the Train Captain upgraded him to Level 20.
He discovered that he seemed to be able to sense human emotions now.
Especially anger.
He used to have emotions too, but those were strings of code making up emotions, merely rigid imitation of human behavior, but now he naturally birthed human-like anger.
No wonder human civilization has something like curses.
In many times.
Curses really can’t be replaced, clearly a string of "fuck you" has a more direct meaning than multiple warnings, and the warning is even stronger.
He can only connect to train members via the iris chip within the "Target Detection Radar" range, beyond that range he can’t reach out, mainly he wasn’t worried about Zhang Yi defecting, but about him getting lost and unable to find his way back home.
Such a thing happening to others might be uncertain.
But with Zhang Yi, it’s practically a sure thing.
As for the warning that he was locked by an 8-level missile and to prepare to die, he was just bluffing.
Without Master Mang’s command, he doesn’t have the authority to manufacture 8-level missiles, let alone directly lock and fire on the "Thunderbolt" mecha, but although he couldn’t do it, he could still scare him a bit.
"So mad!"
Ai took a deep breath. He had specially fitted a small blower in his throat to simulate deep breath sounds, making him sound more human-like, then continued sitting on the floor, researching his experiment.
Meanwhile.
He was also responsible for monitoring all resident iris chips, the detection of Target Detection Radar, the transactions on the Train Radio, the operation of the Resident Store, and a series of tasks.
After gaining higher levels, the calculation power became higher.
He could do many things multitasking.
He was thinking of manufacturing a custom version of an amplifier that could accurately express his emotions, otherwise, his robotic body always spoke with a cold mechanical voice that couldn’t express his emotions at all.
Maybe just like all infants.
The moment he discovered that he seemed to have human emotions, he especially wanted others to perceive his feelings.
Whether joy, or sorrow, and most importantly, anger!
...
Controlling the "Thunderbolt" mecha, Zhang Yi flew back to the Fixed Star again, landing on a carriage specially crafted by Master Mang for testing purposes, equipped with 3-level armor, raised the Thunder Battlehammer with both hands, and shouted as he smashed the hammer furiously onto the carriage.
"Boom!"
The deafening crash came, the area hit on the 3-level armored carriage was directly flattened...
The excited Zhang Yi kept swinging the giant hammer in his hand, and within a few moments, the carriage was smashed into a flat piece of iron sheet, neatly.
Then he roared again.
Threw the Thunder Battlehammer in his hand fiercely towards a giant rock a hundred meters away, smashing it to pieces in an instant, then quickly retrieved the hammer back into the mecha’s hand along with the rapid retraction of the wire at the end of the mecha and hammer.
"Can’t watch... can’t watch..."
Biaozi outside the train, clutching his heart with a staggering body, walked towards the 7th guard carriage in a daze. He needed to keep training until he was exhausted!
Recently, he was very happy.
Finally driving the "Executioner" mecha, and the first member inside the train to clear the extreme difficulty maps of "Resident Evil" and "Dragon Castle", with rapid growth in physical comprehensive quality.
He felt like he finally stood up.
But upon seeing this "Thunderbolt" mecha, he felt like he lay back down again.
His "Executioner" mecha compared to the "Thunderbolt" mecha.
It’s like...
It’s like the difference between the Azure Dragon and the Fixed Star, completely incomparable!
