Chapter 386: Emergency Repairs
Every underground city, when it was first built, considered the situation of needing mecha to counterattack in case of invasion by giant beasts.
Therefore, when constructing the underground city, special passageways were planned to allow mecha to pass through.
The surface of these special passageways, as well as the buildings on both sides, were specially reinforced and earthquake-proof designed.
Even if the mecha rushed at full speed, there would be no damage caused.
Now, Luo Yan and his team’s mecha were rushing quickly through such special passageways, heading towards the dark river.
At the target section of the dark river, repair work had already begun, with floodgates lowered on both bridges to block the river water.
In the target river section, large pumping pipes were placed in the river.
Dozens of trucks carrying high-power water pumps were parked on the riverbank, almost filling up the entire riverbank.
All pumps were operating at full power, continuously pumping water out of the riverbed, visibly lowering the water level inside.
On the shore, dozens of trucks arrived carrying armor plates to seal the gap.
The armor plates were lifted by a crane and then placed on the ground, followed by on-site assembly and connection by the engineering team.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Luo Yan saw such a large-scale emergency operation for the first time and felt amazed.
Hundreds, even thousands, of repair personnel from the underground city were mobilized.
Along with hundreds of various vehicles, they covered the entire riverbank area.
So many people were working hard for the same thing, the same goal.
Just the sight of this scene was enough to move people.
Compared to the giant beast, humans were undoubtedly tiny.
Yet, as small beings, when united and working together, they could stand against those huge life forms.
Maybe it’s this kind of spirit and willpower that help humans stand out among many species in evolution.
And then on this blue planet, they built their own civilization!
“At six o’clock direction, spotted giant fleas.”
“Seven of them!”
Through the communication channel, Kang Shun’s voice suddenly sounded.
Luo Yan immediately looked towards the six o’clock direction, indeed there were seven Anchor Head Fleas floating in mid-air.
Among them, three male fleas and four female fleas.
The female fleas, from far away, had already arched their backs, with their back horns shining brightly, emitting beams towards the ground repair team.
Luo Yan, being closer, immediately controlled the mecha to intercept.
Bian’s jetpack released blue flames behind her, the huge thrust propelled the mecha to the front of the repair team before the beam arrived.
On the ground, many workers in the repair team saw the beam shot by the flea and exclaimed in surprise, dropping their tools and running away.
Suddenly, a strong wind rose, followed by a huge figure that shielded them under its shadow.
The figure was silver-white with tiger stripes appearing, raising a large shield to block the beam.
The supervisor in charge of the team shouted loudly in his safety helmet, “Don’t panic, the mecha will protect us!”
“Everyone, hurry up and finish the work early, and then go back early!”
The workers returned to their original positions, occasionally glancing at the mecha in the distance.
In the cockpit, Luo Yan easily intercepted these beams, and then the aircraft cannon on his shoulder roared.
The loud and powerful sound of cannons rang out, bullets fricting the air, glowing red with bright traces in mid-air, strafing the fleas.
The female fleas immediately changed their attack targets, sweeping their beams from their back horns to intercept and cut off the bullets one by one.
At the same time, they kept moving their bodies to evade Bian’s attacks.
Meanwhile, three male fleas took the opportunity to charge forward, arching their large heads, trying to knock down the mecha.
Suddenly, two black and blue arms appeared in midair, with intricate patterns covering Ghost Hands on the left and right. They each grabbed the head of a male flea and smashed them down towards the ground.
Bang!
Even though the male flea’s head was incredibly tough, it was crushed under the pressure, its brains spilled on the ground, leading to its death.
Another male flea was impaled by a silver spear from its mouth, which then exploded into a burst of flowers, causing the male flea to be torn apart.
At this moment, Bian also took out four female fleas. When Luo Yan turned around, both the Demon Mecha ‘Eight Doors’ and Dugu Changxin’s ‘Flying Thunder’ were nearby.
With the coordination of the three mechas, they took out 7 giant fleas in less than a minute, boosting the morale of the repair team and motivating the workers to work even harder.
At this time, the water level of the underground river had dropped to the bottom, revealing the uneven riverbed.
Also exposed was a huge gap.
Water was still bubbling out of this gap, and at that moment, the water in the gap suddenly boiled.
At the same time, Luo Yan and the others’ giant beast radar were all flashing spectrum signals.
The computer quickly compared the signals and came to a conclusion.
“Confirmed target giant beast is ‘Iron Bone Fish.'”
“Level: middle rank 3.”
“Type: Scale Insect.”
“Features: Deep diving, iron bones, sharp spines, steel teeth!”
……
Boom!
The river water gushed out from the gap, forming a curtain of water. Within the curtain, a dark shadow emerged.
It was a giant fish, resembling a carp but entirely black, with bones on the outside.
These bones, one after another, wrapped around its body, appearing very hard and shimmering with a golden metallic sheen.
As the giant fish moved, these bones flexed and changed shape, resembling cartilage, which was quite peculiar.
The giant fish landed on the ground, its large fins on the sides acting like legs, propelling the Iron Bone Fish swiftly towards the repair team on the riverbank.
At that moment, another small team rushed forward to meet it.
He Hao was among that team.
His giant robot ‘Black Thunder’ charged ahead and blocked the Iron Bone Fish. Its powerful arms grabbed the fish by its iron bones.
With its legs braced, ‘Black Thunder’ released hot white breath from its joints as the huge fish pushed it back a hundred meters before stopping.
When the Iron Bone Fish stopped, other robots took the chance to attack. Soon, this middle rank giant beast was in serious trouble.
Finally, the fish took a heavy blow from ‘Black Thunder’, smashing its head and killing it by the riverbank.
After that, besides the Anchor Head Flea that had invaded underground and a few scattered giant worms coming from the riverbed, no more giant beasts were seen.
Four hours later, the assembled armored plates successfully sealed the gap.
Furthermore, outside the city, the Changping Army Group discovered and destroyed the entrance to a passage, finally eliminating the threat.
With the mission accomplished, Luo Yan returned to the camp.
He did some calculations.
The task of killing five huge fleas just earned 500,000 work points, he couldn’t help but sigh.
Money is really hard to earn.
At this moment, feeling something in his heart, he turned around and saw the tall and strong He Hao standing behind him with a tough guy look and holding a helmet.
Suddenly, He Hao raised his hand, stretched out his finger, pointing at Luo Yan.
“I will soon catch up with you!”
Then he strode past Luo Yan.
Luo Yan shook his head and returned to his dorm.
The next morning, after Luo Yan had finished breakfast, he heard Yan Wenbo’s voice on the communication device.
“Everyone, come to the war room for a meeting. Changping Army Group is holding an online strategy meeting, come and listen.”
“This way, it will be clearer for you to be responsible for your own part.”
