Chapter 79: Anomaly
"Oh my, what is that?"
"Is it a person?"
"No way."
"Can you adjust the picture?"
"Quick, make the picture clearer."
Inside the Command Center of Second Grade Group B.
The staff officers exclaimed in shock one after another.
Very fast.
The picture on the big screen became clear.
This made everyone see that above the high clouds, there were ropes hanging down tangled with hair.
These ropes were hanging individuals.
There were old people and children, men and women.
Different from the corpses with only bones left that could be seen everywhere in the city.
These individuals hanging in the sky seemed to still be alive.
They were well-shaped and had rosy complexions.
The old people were dressed properly and the children were wearing cute clothes.
The man is wearing a suit, and the lady is wearing a dress.
Some of them look kind, some look handsome and cheerful, some look clever and cute, some look delicate and beautiful.
These people hanging in the sky are swaying by the wind, like kites unable to control their own fate.
But in the strong wind, they are still doing various movements.
The old man is reading the newspaper, the child is playing soccer, the man is working, and the women are putting on makeup.
However, they are just miming without holding newspapers, soccer balls, computers, or makeup nearby.
Looking from the big screen.
The students seem like they are watching a play.
But the stage is up high in the sky, causing a frightening feeling.
Very fast.
The dark shadow behind the cloud disappeared.
It seemed to fly to a higher place.
Then those ‘ropes’ hanging down from the clouds, along with the humans hanging from them, also disappeared into the clouds.
When nothing could be seen in the picture, the students finally came to their senses and talked excitedly.
At that moment, someone shouted, "Where is Zhongdiao?"
It turned out that…
While they were distracted by the dark shadow in the cloud, the injured Gudiao had already escaped from the battlefield.
But it was injured and couldn’t fly, so it could only run desperately on the ground.
In second grade, Wang Lei saw what was happening and shouted, "I’ll go after it!"
His mecha was closest to Gudiao judging from its position.
Suddenly, the mecha’s engine roared, full power on, closely chasing the bird beast that was running on the ground like a rooster.
Just then.
Wang Lei’s command console an instrument suddenly sounded an alarm.
It turned out he had reached the edge of the safe zone.
Immediately.
The voice of the staff came through the communication device.
"Wang Lei, stop chasing, if you go further, you will leave the safe zone, come back quickly."
Wang Lei looked at the distance between himself and the giant bird, then gritted his teeth and said, "It’s okay, as long as we don’t go too deep."
"That thing is badly injured, if another team finds it first, we will be unfairly treated."
On the screen.
A window appeared.
Xia Yun, also a Mecha Master, appeared in the window.
"Wang Lei, don’t do anything silly."
"If the giant beast is lost, it’s lost."
"Don’t you fear not finding a giant beast in the forbidden zone?"
"Stop chasing."
Wang Lei didn’t even glance at his classmate, "Lost it, so what?"
"Xia Yun, you make it sound so easy."
"You come from a wealthy family, even if you can’t become a Mecha Master, you can still inherit the family business."
"What about me?"
"My dad had a stroke years ago, and my mom’s health is always acting up."
"I also have a younger sister."
"If I don’t become a Mecha Master…"
"Will my family have to go hungry?"
"Especially now, with four teams competing, our group is in last place."
"I’m not ready to spell now."
"When will I spell!"
With a loud shout, Wang Lei controlled the mecha to crash into a park.
He crossed the safe area!
At that moment, Wei Fenghua’s voice sounded from the command console, "Wang Lei, please stop immediately…"
Without letting Wei Fenghua finish speaking, Wang Lei cut off the communication.
Acting against others’ advice!
Chasing out of the park.
The Gudiao in front seemed to have run out of energy.
It stopped.
Wang Lei saw it and felt very happy.
The mecha he was driving pulled out a long knife, jumped up suddenly, and landed heavily.
Stepping on Gudiao’s head, the long knife turned upside down, with the tip of the knife pointing down.
Inserted down.
One slash breaking the belly.
However, Gudiao didn’t die from this.
Instead, it struggled desperately.
With the broken horn on its head, it forcefully hit Wang Lei’s mecha.
The robot was hit so hard that sparks flew.
Under the effect of the ’empathy system’, Wang Lei only felt discomfort in his chest, thanks to the combat suit reducing the sense of pain.
Otherwise, Wang Lei worried he might faint from the pain.
He yelled loudly.
Controlling the robot, he reached out and grabbed Gudiao’s neck, pulled out a long knife, and swept it fiercely.
A cold light flashed.
As the cold light passed by, Gudiao’s head and neck were completely separated.
The robot stood up, lifting the giant bird’s head with wide eyes.
As if trying to prove something to the world.
Unfortunately.
There are no spectators here.
At that moment, the giant beast radar in the cockpit showed that the energy spectrum of Gudiao had disappeared.
"I did it."
Wang Lei closed his eyes, a smile slowly spreading across his face. "I did it!"
"I have slain the giant beast!"
He burst into hearty laughter.
In his cheerful mood, he didn’t notice that the forbidden area had suddenly become quiet.
Even the occasional roars of the giant beasts had suddenly vanished.
Right after.
It was still noon.
The light in the forbidden area quickly dimmed.
This made the outlines of everything blurry and ambiguous.
But also emphasized the rich shadows.
In the driver’s cabin.
Wang Lei finally adjusted his mood, carrying Gudiao’s head ready to go back.
Suddenly, he saw vague figures deep in the forbidden area through the panoramic window.
It seemed like a group of people were walking towards this direction.
Wang Lei checked the radar, but didn’t find any signs of life on it.
His head felt like it was exploding.
Don’t do what it wants.
He decisively drove the mecha towards the direction of the safe zone.
Through the panoramic window, the surrounding light quickly dimmed.
It was as if night was coming early.
Wang Lei couldn’t help but glance suspiciously at the time on the command console.
The time displayed showed that it was still 10 minutes before 1 PM.
Just at that moment.
Suddenly, there was a jolt and I staggered, almost falling down.
Wang Lei looked down.
There was a clump of black hair wrapped around mecha’s right foot.
I had just been tripped by this thing.
Just then.
The black hair seemed to have a life and consciousness of its own.
It suddenly wriggled, coiling around mecha’s feet like a snake.
Wang Lei was about to cut off this hair with a long knife.
Suddenly found that my arms were hard to move.
Turned his head.
On Mecha’s arm, dozens of black long hair tangled.
They came sweeping from nearby trees, lampposts, building windows, and various places, entwining Mecha.
Wang Lei’s heart was pounding, he threw Gudiao’s head without thinking twice, picked up a rifle, and shot at the tangles of hair entwining the arm.
Only fired a few shots.
Wang Lei felt his neck tighten.
It turned out that several clusters of black hair were also entangled around Mecha’s neck.
At the same time.
These hairs scattered, individual strands continuously drilling into the crevices of Mecha, gradually penetrating the inside.
