Dawn of a New Era
v1 Chapter 152: Steam Tank
After midnight, Chen Shouyi fell asleep stupidly, but the sleep was still very shallow, and he was awakened several times during the period.
When awakened by a loud noise for the last time, he got up and sat up.
He looked at his watch and found that it was only half past four in the morning.
He walked to the window, and the night was still hazy, more than two hours before dawn.
The sound of guns in the distance has been ringing in the middle of the night, and it has not stopped. Instead, it seems more and more intense. From time to time, you can see the fire that is sometimes not far away.
Chen Shouyi watched for a while and was about to continue lying in bed for a while.
At this time, a dull sound resembling an old-fashioned train rang gradually from far to near, and the ground began to vibrate slightly.
It didn't take long for a steel beast to drive across the street near the community. By the moonlight, Chen Shouyi carefully discerned.
This is a giant steam tank, which is one or two meters higher than the outer fence. A long gun barrel points to the front, and there are six giant machine guns like cannons.
The ugly tail spewing white gas like a locomotive looks quite eye-catching.
Chen Shouyi also saw a lot of tanks in the channel garrison area, but none of them were larger and bloated. Those seemingly huge heavy tanks looked petite like babies compared to them.
Its finish is very high. Although it looks bloated, it has a compact structure with no flaws on the surface. The surface is also sprayed with jungle camouflage flower green.
Obviously, this tank was not developed recently.
In peacetime, it takes five to ten years for an important military equipment to go from requesting to pre-research, to military equipment, and wartime may be shortened to one year or even less.
However, it took only more than three months from the first mutation to the second mutation. In such a short period of time, even if the entire Daxia Kingdom was fully mobilized and entered the wartime state, it could not be equipped to the stationed in Hedong City so quickly. Second-tier army.
In fact, the same is true.
This tank was finalized more than ten years ago. The original intention was to develop a positive offensive force in another world. It was specially developed. It is purely steam-powered, and even the shells use ultra-high-pressure steam ejection.
Later, due to the complex environment of the other world, and various other strategic factors, it was only a small batch to equip the first- and second-line troops.
From the beginning of the equipment, these tanks have been useless and sealed in the arsenal.
Until now!
Watching this gigantic beast roar past Laoyuan, Chen Shouyi returned to his breath and exhaled.
At this point he had no sleepiness and simply wasn't ready to sleep.
While wearing his clothes, he opened the property panel and took a look, and found that his will had increased by 0.1 again, reaching 12.9 points, and his perception had also increased by 0.1, reaching 12.1.
The Shell Girl is still asleep, and he gently picks up this little spot from the bed and puts it in a briefcase.
The Shell Girl muttered a few times, smashed her mouth, and snarled again.
Sometimes, he really envied the simple and carefree shell girl, just like today, he tossed and turned all night, restless, but she slept like a pig.
Seeing that it was still early, Chen Shouyi took up his sword to warm up.
The increase in perception makes him feel more like a kind of sense. He can faintly sense and judge what is in front of him or behind him, whether he opens or closes his eyes, within the range of five meters on Monday.
It's not a picture, no color, but an extremely strong intuition.
This ability is quite useful, as long as it is within the range of perception, any wind and grass can not hide him.
...
After about half an hour of training, a scream came suddenly from the outside, and then came to an end, which was creepy.
The voice was very close, Chen Shouyi heard a deep sink in his heart, quickly stopped, walked quickly to the window, only glanced, his pupils could not help shrinking, and he leaned sideways behind the wall.
A familiar silver figure walked elegantly from the doorway into the community.
In the hazy moonlight, it was all covered with a beautiful silver light.
Chen Shouyi clenched the hilt of his sword firmly, his eyes squinted carefully to observe.
He wasn't sure if this was the one he encountered during the day, but his body size seemed to be similar. At this time, the community heard a scream of fear again.
Tonight everyone is heartbroken. Unless they are born with a big nerve, who can sleep, not only are they worried that these monsters who break into the city cannibalism, but also they are affected by the fire here. I do n’t know how many people are there all night Staying at the window, watching the situation outside.
The silver figure was immediately attracted by the screams, and suddenly his body flew up, spreading its wings.
As an insect that can fly under triple gravity, once it reaches the earth, its speed can be imagined.
Its wings fluttered at high frequency, like a silver light rushing away towards the residential building near Chen Shouyi's house.
There was a snoring sound, the glass on the eighth floor was shattered, and a few screams screamed, but they disappeared after a few seconds, apparently having suffered unexpectedly.
After a while, there was a slight movement in the house, and soon someone came to the living room. Chen Shouyi glanced at the broken window on the eighth floor opposite, stepped to the doorstep, opened the door, and said quickly: "Dad, call everyone else Go to the living room, don't sleep, be quiet. "
Chen Dawei was shocked in his heart. Looking at his always calm son, he reacted in this way and knew that something had happened. He didn't ask much:
"Okay! I'll call them out right away."
...
Chen Shouyi returned to the window and continued to observe.
This silver giant spider did not come out for a long time.
Chen Shouyi looked silent, looked for a long time, then retracted his eyes, sighed, and gently closed the curtains.
He is not a superman or a god, but is just a more powerful ordinary person. It is natural to deal with those black giant spiders, but in the face of such terrible silver giant spiders, he is powerless.
Out of the bedroom, everyone was out.
It was still early in the morning, and there was darkness in the living room without candles, and the atmosphere was quiet and depressing.
"Shouyi, what's going on outside?" Chen mother asked a little uneasily.
"It's dangerous. A terrible monster appeared in the community." Chen Shouyi hesitated a little, and decided to tell the truth.
"Brother, can't you handle it?" Chen Xingyue asked.
"Well." Chen Shouyi nodded.
The atmosphere calmed down, leaving only a deep breath.
Time has passed, and the community has remained quiet.
This is undoubtedly good news. Obviously, this silver giant spider did not perform unnecessary killing after eating.
But the existence of this terrible creature still made Chen Shouyi's heart feel heavy and heavy.
...
The sky gradually lightened.
Song Tingting couldn't help going to the toilet, and when she came back, she made a disturbing news.
The tap water has stopped.
Mother Chen and Dawei Chen couldn't sit still, and went to the kitchen together to check the gas.
Fortunately, I finally found it still usable.
Chen Shouyi was relieved.
Fortunately, the natural gas is not broken.
As for tap water, there is a lot in the home, enough for ten and a half months. If you save a little, you can use it for cooking and drinking water for a month.
What's more, there is a small lake in the community, although it is not clear and clean, but at that time, the water is already good, and you can expect more.
If there is a problem with natural gas, all residents of the entire city will be in disaster.
Not only are cities densely populated, they are mostly reinforced cement, and there are not many other fuel alternatives other than natural gas.
Moreover, the chemical reaction becomes relatively slow after the mutation, and flammable gases such as natural gas can be easily ignited, and the rest like wood and coal, which is difficult.
...
After simply dealing with breakfast, everyone stayed in the living room.
The time soon approached noon, and the huge noise of the steam tank sounded again, and seemed to be coming this way.
At the beginning, Chen Shouyi didn't care, and soon he couldn't help but sink.
Such a big movement, I'm afraid it will shock the silver giant spider!
"I'll see the situation!" He stood up and said a word, walked quickly to the bedroom, quietly opened a gap in the curtain, and observed carefully.
In the eighth floor opposite, there was no movement at all. The silver giant spider was not resting or doing something else.
But as the steam tank moved, it became louder.
Finally, this terrible silver figure appeared again in the window. It looked far away, and there was no expression in the transparent eyes.
Suddenly it jumped suddenly, fluttered and flew towards the distance.
Needless to know, it was flying towards the steam tank.
Chen Shouyi was struggling, suddenly gritted his teeth, picked up his bow and sword, and leaped suddenly from the window.
His body plummeted, and the air roared around.
A few seconds later, Chen Shouyi's landing, with a rolling and unloading force, was already standing on the ground, and then quickly ran in the direction of noise.
Every second he can take twenty or thirty steps, each step is three meters long. In the wind system, his talents are in effect. If there is no air resistance, if there is no, he has already crossed the 100 meters in his breath. the distance.
Just ran to the fence and the worst thing happened.
With a burst of continuous explosion-like sound of steam jets, countless black projectiles whistled into the air, and soon submerged into a building in the distance, leaving a dense bullet mark, and a large amount of glass shattered and fell from the air.
Chen Shouyi looked dignified, speeded up sharply, and jumped over the fence.
Half a kilometer away, the huge steam tank had stopped, and the nearly ten-meter-long giant barrel had not moved. Only six projectiles ejected by the giant steam machine gun fired wildly at a silver figure.
More than a dozen deep scratches have been added to the tank's thick armor, two or three centimeters shallow, and five or six centimeters thick, which is also due to the thick armor of this steam tank, otherwise it will be torn.
It screamed sharply, his body stumbled in mid-air, trying hard to get close, but his body was hit by a series of bullets from the steam machine gun like rain.
This silver giant spider obviously picked the wrong opponent. The complexion of this thick-skinned big guy was powerless. At first, it relied on speed and agility to allow it to attack, but once the machine gunner inside came over, It doesn't have much chance.
A few seconds later, it suddenly moved, flying like a silver light towards a 50-60-story skyscraper next to it.
The next moment, it was already standing on the top of the high building, a pair of compound eyes looked down coldly.
Running Chen Shouyi immediately ducked behind a building.
The silver giant spider had been injured, and the carapace on the surface was covered with dozens of small web-like cracks, slightly sunken, and green blood slowly exuded from it.
However, this degree of injury is obviously not serious.
The six steam machine guns of the steam tank continued firing for a while, but also stopped, and the raging steam was permeated.
Both remained unmoved.
I don't know why, Chen Shouyi hiding aside had a bad hunch.
This giant spider is obviously not an ordinary insect, it has considerable wisdom.
Sure enough, after a few seconds, the silver giant spider, again like an electric light, lased.
It was too fast, and before the machine gun fired a bullet, Chen Shouyi heard a series of dense metal-like explosions like iron, the Mars burst from the top of the tank, six giant steam machine guns, and in a blink of an eye, they were distorted and innumerable. Burst flying.
Perhaps it was the high-pressure steam pipeline that damaged the machine gun. At the next moment, ultra-high pressure steam of several hundred degrees Celsius was violently sprayed into the air, forming a steam column of tens of meters high. The entire tank became steam-filled.
This silver giant spider was obviously not expecting it at all, and would encounter such an accident. It was immediately burned by the high temperature, a sharp hissing sound, and the rapid fluttering wings flew up. After flying more than 100 meters in the direction of Chen Shouyi, Falling down the street, his body trembling constantly, hissing again and again.
The green blood on his body had discolored, apparently having been burned by high-temperature steam.
good chance!
When Chen Shouyi moved in his heart, he found an arrow and came out of the building. He walked lightly and quickly, and after five or six seconds, he was close to a hundred meters.
It seemed to feel the movement, the hiss of the silver giant spider stopped suddenly, and turned slowly.
Only then did Chen Shouyi notice that his injuries were heavier than expected, and that a pair of compound eyes, which were originally transparent and crystal, had become slightly cloudy.
Its vision has clearly deteriorated significantly, and it has even become blind.
His tense heart eased slightly, his footsteps became softer and closer, and the arrows on his hands slowly rested on the bowstrings.
100 meters, 90 meters ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ 80 meters ...
The silver giant spider became more and more anxious. It suddenly opened its wings that had been covered with holes, and the air exploded with a buzzing sound, and quickly rose off the ground, preparing to stay away from here.
At this moment, Chen Shouyi's hand opened the bowstring like a phantom, and an arrow shot.
The supersonic arrow came quickly, and this time it never escaped.
In fact, this high-temperature steam burning was more serious than that seen by Chen Shouyi. Not only was his vision severely damaged, but most of his fine hairs were also damaged by the high temperature.
These fine woolen cloths are filled with countless susceptors, which can not only sense the flow and vibration of air and water, but also listen to sound as ears, can sense the temperature, and smell the smell. It is precisely because of these receptors that it can quickly avoid high-speed bullets and arrows. Without these receptors, its threat has been almost eliminated.
With a bang, the arrow hit his chest again.
The hard silver carapace on the chest was punctured instantly, and the arrows were completely submerged. Only the quivering arrow feathers were left, and at the same time, the huge impact force flew its body just off the ground to three or four After the meter, he fell heavily to the ground.
The silver giant spider hissed sharply, his wings flapping desperately, trying to escape.
The next moment, another arrow shot into its abdomen, and it rolled down to the ground again.
Chen Shouyi didn't dare to relax, one arrow after another, and seven arrows were shot in his breath. Until this terrible silver giant spider could no longer move, he took a sigh of relief, and the haze in his heart quickly dissipated.
At this time, the distant steam tank finally closed the leaked steam pipe.
Chen Shouyi glanced at it, and several steps quickly disappeared into the distance.
