Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 59: Flame Rider
Now I have recovered. If I can't get rid of it, it would be really too weak.

It didn't take long before the last cavalry was destroyed.

Xiang Shu then walked to Zhou Li, stretched out his hand to pull her up, and asked with concern.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

"Woo, I can still move, but it's so scary."

Zhou Li said sobbingly.

"Just take it easy, Brother Su Ming, your operation skills are amazing! You took down two Iron Cavalry units by yourself. Are you a special trainee of the Third Academy?"

Xiang Shu said a comforting word, then he looked at Su Ming and praised him generously.

"luck."

Su Ming replied modestly.

"Brother, the score given by this Iron Cavalry is too low."

Qi Duo and a few others came over and complained.

"This means that our main mission is not to fight outside, but to return to the airport. Let's take a temporary break and replace the ammunition if necessary. After resting, we can continue to set off."

Xiang Shu said with a very clear mind.

At this time, Chen Yu and others saw that all the cavalry had been killed, and they all breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the bunker.

"My dear brothers, this is so awesome!"

Su Ming glanced at them and was too lazy to complain about them. If they had played a good reconnaissance role, they would not have been so easily ambushed.

Chen Yu was also very embarrassed when he saw that Su Ming and the others ignored them.

At this time, Zhang Lie, who survived the disaster, suddenly shouted in surprise.

"Oh my, I actually got a point."

"Why don't I have it?"

Chen Yu and others asked in confusion.

"I remember now. When I was running for my life, I fired a shot and got points for coordinated combat."

Zhang Lie said excitedly.

"Oh, what a pity. If I had known, I would have fired a shot as well."

"Really."

Chen Yu and others looked very annoyed.

Xiang Shu was a little speechless after listening to these people's complaints. It was so easy for them to get good scores.

Su Ming seemed very calm. Different arms have different requirements. You can't expect land infantry to kill mechas. That's not realistic at all.

Qi Duo snorted coldly and was about to make some sarcastic remarks.

In the end, he still hasn't spoken.

huh~
A red beam of light came without warning and hit the chest of the Iron Head piloted by Zhou Li.

Boom!

The entire iron head exploded and fell to the ground, and Zhou Li died on the spot.

Su Ming was startled and turned his head to look around at the taller buildings, while issuing a warning.

"Be careful of snipers. They should be on the commanding heights."

Chen Tong and others immediately panicked and looked around, but for a while they could not find any trace of the enemy.

At this time, Xiang Shu suddenly shouted on the communication channel.

"At 6 o'clock, about four kilometers away from the ruins."

Su Ming was also startled and looked in the direction he pointed. They looked at the 6 o'clock direction and saw a pile of ruins in the distance, but because the distance was too far, it looked very inconspicuous.

He then adjusted the optical lens to zoom in on the field of view, and he actually saw a cavalryman holding a sniper rifle standing on the ruins.

Su Ming was very surprised. This guy named Xiang Shu was really capable. He was able to lock the opponent's position so quickly.

"give it to me!"

Qi Duo immediately removed the large-caliber sniper machine gun from his back.

He controlled the mecha, raised the sniper machine gun, aimed at the target, and pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

Bang!
An armor-piercing bullet was fired.

Su Ming then saw that the cavalry's left arm was hit and the entire arm shattered.

Qi Duo quickly reloaded and fired another shot.
The iron cavalry was hit in the chest, and the entire mecha fell to the ground and exploded.

"Great!"

Su Ming praised with some surprise.

He didn't expect Qi Duo to be so powerful. He fired two shots in such a short time, one shot seriously injuring the opponent and the other shot killing him directly.

You know, the cavalry armed with sniper rifles are very difficult to deal with. If you don't kill them in the first time, it is normal that they will all be wiped out here.

"It's OK, just so-so."

Qi Duo said proudly.

"You have seen our strength, right? As long as you follow us, I cannot guarantee that you will be able to complete the main mission, but you will definitely get a high score."

Xiang Shu said to Su Ming very confidently.

"Brother Xiang Shu is right!"

Lu Ying and others followed suit.

"Let's go!"

Xiang Shu then waved his hand and led everyone forward cautiously.

Because of the previous ambush experience, everyone was nervous and did not dare to be careless at all.

The entire Manhave Base City was silent, with almost no sound. The huge city was like a dead city, giving people an invisible psychological pressure.

"This is strange. We have been walking for quite some time and haven't encountered any enemies. If we go any further, we will be out of the city."

Shi Wu spoke with great confusion.

"Don't be careless before you leave the city. Be alert to avoid being ambushed."

Xiang Shu led everyone forward cautiously.

At this moment, a dilapidated skyscraper on the right side of the team suddenly exploded without any warning.

Boom~
The flames swept across along with countless pieces of rubble.

The two mechas responsible for guarding the right side were engulfed by the explosion on the spot.

Even Su Ming and Chen Tong, who were in charge of the left side, were knocked to the ground by the violent explosion. The violent vibration made Su Ming's body shake violently, his head was buzzing, and his ears had tinnitus.

Su Ming shook his head, calmed down immediately, and controlled the Iron Head Mecha to climb up.

Bang! Bang!
Suddenly there was a dull sound.

Su Ming immediately looked towards the exploded building.

When the smoke from the explosion cleared, a second-generation full-metal mecha, Flame Rider, which was 10 meters tall, covered in dark red metal armor and holding a slender red alloy blade in its right hand, walked out of the burning flames with heavy steps.

Then, a miniature machine with eight mechanical spider legs and a spherical upper body climbed up from the back of Yanqi, lay on its shoulders, and stared at Su Ming and others with its spherical head.

At this time, Xiang Shu and others also climbed up with difficulty. When they saw the Flame Riders appear, their eyes widened.

"Something's going on, bro!"

Qi Duo said with a dry throat.

"You don't have to tell me, I saw it, it's the second generation mecha of Earth Flame Star, Flame Rider!"

Xiang Shu raised the grenade launcher in his hand and replied nervously.

At this time, Su Ming decisively switched to the spare DS-01 electromagnetic machine gun and shot at the Flame Rider.

Yanqi calmly raised his right foot and kicked a concrete slab on the ground.

The entire concrete slab stood upright.

The electromagnetic light bullet hit it and splashed everywhere, without any effect at all.

Su Ming's heart sank suddenly. This second-generation mecha was more dangerous than he had imagined. It easily blocked his attack.

"How can we defeat him when he's so strong?"

Lu Ying and others retreated in fear.

"What are you afraid of? We have so many people and mechas. Even if it's a second-generation mecha, what can it do? Kill it!"

Xiang Shu saw that the morale was collapsing, so he made up his mind and said fiercely.

"Yes."

Su Ming replied in agreement.
