Chapter 435: Fight the little monsters!
"Little monster, wait for me to favor you!" Lin Hao and Britney, who thought she was driving the Ranger, pressed the power system control key at the same time.
Then Lin Hao stepped forward, and the "Wanderer" began to rumble. On the stormy night, it turned its back to the command center and strode towards the monster. Wherever it passed, waves surged and water mist rose.
At the same time, the monster code-named Scythe Head was heading towards Kodiak Island, but on the way, it saw a ship floating on the sea, and the monster seemed to be a little interested in the ship.
A few minutes later, 7 miles from the coastline, the severe storm made the captain and first mate of the Ocean very worried, and they were discussing how to find shelter as soon as possible.
Then the captain looked at the radar and said:
"Where's that island three miles away? Why is it gone?"
The first mate said in confusion:
"It was just there~!"
However, before they could finish their words, they looked at the island approaching on the radar and were stunned at the same time. Then they looked at each other and said in unison:
"It's a monster!"
Sure enough, at this moment the monster "Sickle Head" had jumped up from the left side of the "Ocean", and was more than 30 meters high above the water.
"Aohou~!" The sickle-headed man suddenly raised his head and roared.
Its head was shaped like a huge curved blade. The blade on its upper jaw gradually narrowed from wide to a sharp point, and there was also a sharp blade on its skull.
Two legs, a powerful tail, and four arms ending in large webbed claws that can easily crush a fishing boat.
Lin Hao was driving the Waver against the wind and waves, rushing towards the Ocean fishing boat, while the sonar outlined the monster's body hidden underwater.
Then Lin Hao said to the people in the command room:
"Did you notice? This guy looks a bit like a dinosaur, but it's several times bigger than any dinosaur!"
"It does look a bit like a dinosaur, but its head looks more distinctive!" Cai Tiantong said through the communicator.
He then continued, “You gotta speed up, man!”
"We're here!" Lin Hao said as he turned off the communicator and concentrated on operating the mecha.
Lin Hao drove the Wanderer, lowered his center of gravity, and quickly crossed the deep waters of the Gulf of Alaska.
After finding a foothold in shallow waters, the wanderer stood firmly, then stood up straight and suddenly broke out of the water, instantly raising a water column dozens of meters high.
Everyone on the fishing boat stared at the monster in a daze. Everyone on the boat knew that they were finished. But just when they were in despair, Lin Hao appeared from the starboard side of the ship in a Wanderer mecha.
However, the situation at this time was still very bad. They knew that this was a mecha specially designed to fight monsters, but the problem was that their small fishing boat was sandwiched between the two huge monsters.
For a moment, apart from the patter of heavy rain, the atmosphere seemed a little frozen.
However, the monster's target was obviously not the small fish in front of it, but the mecha that jumped out of the water, so the monster suddenly attacked forward.
“Ahhhh, the show is about to begin!” Lin Hao shouted excitedly: “Come on, my little darling!”
Before Lin Hao jumped out of the water, his left fist was quickly reorganized into a gun barrel. After rushing out of the water, the plasma cannon had already completed charging.
Seeing that the monster was about to rush over, Lin Hao aimed directly at the monster's abdomen and shot!
"Boom!" After a loud bang, the monster's abdomen was knocked back several steps by the powerful impact of the plasma cannon, and its abdomen was also torn into pieces!
Just as the monster was repelled, Lin Hao grabbed the Ocean fishing boat and put it directly to the side to prevent them from being affected.
Then he used a loudspeaker to say, "Leave here quickly, be careful not to get affected!"
Lin Hao turned around and rushed towards the monster. Although the monster's abdomen was torn apart by Dade, it was only knocked back a few steps.
Because its vitality was too strong, it didn't care about the injuries on its body at all. Seeing Lin Hao rushing towards it, it also struggled to rush towards Lin Hao.
Just when he was about to collide, Lin Hao suddenly leaned sideways and threw an uppercut with his right hand.
"Bang~!" The sickle-headed monster's big head was immediately knocked up, followed by a left hook. Before it could react, he grabbed its big head with his right hand, gathered strength with his left arm, and then smashed it down hard.
“Bang~bang~bang~bang~bang~bang~bang~bang~!”
With a series of smooth movements and violent fists, the monster was hit so hard that its brain was bleeding and blue blood flowed out of its mouth.
Then his whole body lost balance and fell to one side.
The corrosive blood that flowed out of the monster's mouth reacted instantly when mixed with sea water, and the surrounding sea water boiled instantly.
The four arms of the sickle-headed creature flapped wildly on the sea surface, then began to sink slowly until the head disappeared under the sea surface.
At this time, Lin Hao discovered a message in front of the cockpit, which turned out to be an information access request from the base's command center.
So Lin Hao picked up the communicator and asked:
"Sir, what is it?"
In the Wanderer's control cabin, Pandecost's angry face was immediately projected, and then he roared loudly:
"Wanderers, what's wrong with you guys?!"
"I told you to hold the ten-mile miracle line outside Anchorage. Why did you two disobey my orders?"
However, Lin Hao didn't care about Pandecost's roar, and just said lightly:
"Mission accomplished, sir. As long as we destroy this monster, it will never be able to break through the ten-mile miracle line!"
Lin Hao was well aware of Pandecost's little thoughts. In the cooperation among several countries in the Pacific Rim, he did share technology at the beginning and took the initiative to destroy the monsters.
But the problem is that the maintenance cost of the mecha is too high. For example, the plasma cannon used by Lin Hao has just been used.
In order to ensure that it can be used next time, many expensive core parts will be replaced without any damage, which will undoubtedly increase a lot of expenses.
Not to mention the maintenance of the mecha, so as long as the monster does not explicitly want to land locally, it will be allowed to go to bases in other countries. After all, it is better for me to let my friend die than for me to die.
That was why the vague order was given before, to defend the ten-mile cordon of the base instead of destroying the monster.
But Pandercost had no way to refute Lin Hao's words, as both he and Lin Hao knew it very well.
However, Pandecost did not support Lin Hao's way of taking the initiative, so he could only say angrily:
"Come back immediately, now~!"
However, Lin Hao said again:
"Sir, the monster's vital signs have not been confirmed yet!"
However, at this time, the people in the base command center immediately began to cheer and celebrate, because they found that as soon as Lin Hao finished speaking, the life characteristics of the sickle head were disappearing.
However, Lin Hao was not optimistic and had no intention of letting his guard down, because in the movie, the monster deceived the Raleigh brothers by pretending to be dead.
In the end, a sneak attack caused a hole in the wanderer's head, and Rory's brother Yang Xi was killed by the monster, so Lin Hao did not relax at all.
Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Hao had already used the mental marking skill on this sickle-headed monster when he saw it.
Therefore, it is even more impossible for Sickle-Head to deceive Lin Hao through Zhang Si.
Sure enough, after sinking to the surface, the monster used its swimming ability to go directly around Lin Hao's back, preparing to find a suitable opportunity to ambush him. At this time, Cai Tiantong's head suddenly cut in on the display screen in front of Lin Hao. Alarms sounded at the same time in the base command center and the mecha operating cabin.
"The monster is showing signs of life again!" Cai Tiantong's face changed drastically, and then he exclaimed, "It's getting stronger!"
At this time, Pendercost's voice came:
"Wanderers, please take note, retreat immediately, the monster's vital signs are recovering~!"
However, their news obviously came a little late. Lin Hao already knew the location of the sickle head, so the plasma cannon on his right arm had already completed charging.
Then Lin Hao turned and headed towards the fishing boat, and at this moment the sickle-head rushed out of the water, and used its strong front paws to slap the wanderer's big head, and at the same time the sickle on its head stabbed towards the left chest of the mecha!
However, what the monster didn't know was that Lin Hao had been waiting for it to act. Lin Hao squatted slightly and lowered his center of gravity.
The mecha then faced the monster's slap with its left arm and pulled it to the left, instantly completing the wrist grabbing, arm twisting, and tripping throw.
After a series of moves, he used inertia to trip the monster, not only breaking the straight stab of the monster's sickle head, but also causing it to fall over.
Then the plasma cannon in his right arm, which had been ready to fire, hit the monster's roaring mouth.
"Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom~Boom!" Four consecutive saturation attacks directly blew off most of the monster's head, and the monster was deader than dead.
At this time, in the base command center, Cai Tiantong suddenly found that the red dot on the monitor disappeared, so he said:
"Sir, the monster's life index has disappeared, the monster has been destroyed!"
Pandecost breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked Lin Hao:
"Rover, confirm the monster's status!"
"I can't die any more!" Lin Hao sighed with lingering feelings: "It's so damn cool to fight monsters from the first-person perspective!"
Then Lin Hao reported to the base command center again:
"Report to the commander, the mission is accomplished, the monster codenamed Scythe Head has been killed!"
The command center relaxed after hearing Lin Hao's report. In fact, they had already prepared the other two mechas.
Now that Lin Hao has dealt with the sickle head, they naturally don't need to take any action.
But Pendercost said with a gloomy face:
"Rover, return to base immediately!"
"Understood, sir!" However, Lin Hao continued at this time: "Sir, I will bring back the monster's body as well!"
"No need, the base will send someone to handle it, you all need to return to the base immediately!"
The reason why Lin Hao wanted to take the monster back was mainly because a toxic gas would be discharged from the monster's body within a few hours after its death, and humans would experience shock after being infected.
This poison gas is called "Monster Poison Blue" and is extremely harmful to living things. Monsters have been shot dead in densely populated areas, resulting in the death of many people from infection with "Monster Poison Blue".
If the monster's body is left on the seabed, the poisonous gas emitted by the monster will only kill marine fish and pollute nearby waters.
"Okay!" Lin Hao knew that it might not be so easy to continue driving the mecha in the future.
Then Lin Hao walked towards the coastline step by step. When he returned to the base, Lin Hao looked at the time and found that it took a total of 18 minutes.
"It's okay~ It's okay, it almost timed out!" Lin Hao's illusion can only last for 20 minutes at most, and if it exceeds this time, he may be discovered at any time.
When Britney woke up, she excitedly took off her helmet and said excitedly:
“I didn’t expect that driving a mecha for the first time would be so exciting!”
Although Lin Hao used an illusion, he presented all the experience of fighting the monster to Britney in the illusion, so they could be said to have the same experience.
Except for synaesthesia!
Looking at the excited Britney, although Lin Hao didn't want to discourage her, he still said:
"My dear, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to drive a mecha again in the future!"
Britney looked at Lin Hao in confusion, and then recalled Pendercost's previous tone through the memory that Lin Hao presented to her.
"Maybe it won't be that bad?" Britney said unwillingly.
"Squeak~!" At this time, the door behind the wanderer's head was opened.
Lin Hao took the worried Britney out of the cockpit and was then taken to the command center by staff.
When Lin Hao met the base commander Pandecost again, his face was obviously not very good, but Lin Hao didn't care much.
After all, no matter how dark your face is, it can’t be seen on a black person’s face!
Pendercost looked at Lin Hao and Britney in silence. He was unwilling to give up this pair of excellent drivers from the bottom of his heart.
You know, when they were using synesthesia today, their synchronization rate actually reached 100%. You know, training mecha pilots is difficult in itself.
But Lin Hao's self-willed character made him hesitate whether to build a mecha just for them.
After a long while, Pendercost said:
"You guys performed very well today, except for not following orders, so I don't want you to do it again!"
"1, 4, 2!"
"Yessir!"
"You guys go back and rest first!" After making arrangements for Lin Hao and Britney, Pendercost began to arrange the recovery of the monster corpses!
As soon as Lin Hao and Britney went out, they ran into Rowley, and Lin Hao immediately asked:
"Brother, how is your brother?"
Luo Li thought of the doctor's instructions and a faint smile appeared on his face:
"The doctor said it's just a minor problem and he'll recover in a day or two. If necessary, give him an injection and he'll recover right away!"
Looking at Lin Hao and Britney, Luo Li also said:
"You guys performed well just now. I would do the same if it were me!"
“Haha!” Lin Hao also laughed and said, “This is what we call great minds think alike!”
After saying goodbye to Raleigh, Lin Hao and the others returned to the room. Britney thought about Pendercost's attitude. She was not a fool, so of course she saw what Pendercost was thinking.
Britney suddenly asked with a sad face:
"My dear, I think what you just said is very true. I'm afraid we can only serve as backup mecha hunters!"
"What do you think we should do?" After saying that, he looked at Lin Hao again, because Lin Hao once said that he had a way to make them official mecha hunters.
"Let's go to China!" Lin Hao did not disappoint Britney and directly gave her the answer she wanted.
