Future Crystal Crown

After a while, Sean, Amor and Li Zhonglin came back from the back cabin one by one.

"What happened just now?" Cooper turned his head and asked them.

"What the hell, you can't even imagine the situation. The data cable of the console is not plugged into the ammunition compartment at all, and you can't fire until you press it down." Amor.

"Yeah, the cannon can only be fired by the gunner manually setting it on the camera position. Fortunately, Sean was there just now, otherwise we would have been in danger." Li Zhonglin took off his glasses and wiped them vigorously on his clothes.

"It's not that serious. This mech has strong protection capabilities. With Cooper's driving skills, we can escape in two minutes." Sean smiled modestly.

A few sudden crises were resolved into invisible, everyone felt relieved, and at the same time, the long-lost life-and-death intimacy among teammates returned to everyone's heart.

Li Zhonglin yelled: "I'm starving to death, let's eat."

Amor kicked him: "You pig, you can feel hungry watching others work."

"Please look at your watch, what time is it now? A pig should be hungry!" Li Zhonglin rushed to the kitchen, and Amor followed.

They have been flying for more than seven hours. According to Cooper's calculations, if Elson first goes to the Apocalypse to get the crystal ball and then goes to the Sagittarius Temple, they can intercept Elson on the periphery of Sagittarius.But this ideal state is based on two assumptions. First, Elson must first take a detour to Venus; second, their own mecha ship must be unimpeded all the way.These two conditions are indispensable, so they cannot relax in the slightest.

"Sean," Yau called to Sean.

"Huh?" Sean walked over.

Qiu: "Why are there drones with bombs waiting for us on the road? Is this normal?"

"Well, I'll check it out." Sean is a careful person, and he was thinking about this issue just now.

Now that the space communication has failed, it is said that it is impossible for the defense zone to receive an order to snipe them.And they are taking a route that no one cares about. Even if the drones encounter the defense zone, they should be ordinary reconnaissance planes.How could there be a bomb machine waiting here to fire without asking indiscriminately?

Obviously, this was arranged in advance by someone, and everyone knows that the use of drones with bombs is strictly regulated, and they need to be ordered by a military officer of a certain level before they can start.There are not many people who can give such an order without notification and without being discovered by a reconnaissance plane.

"Could it be Elson? He figured we'd take this route?" Sean said.

"His authority is the highest authority under the chief of defense. He can move any drone along the way across the defense zone at will!" Cooper also said.

Qiu's heart sank.

Sean and Cooper pulled up the flight charts and double-checked the situation along the way.

After a while, Sean said with a serious face: "There is a large defense area ahead, there must be many ambushes, let's change the course."

"But that would take a long way, and we don't have time." Cooper was unwilling.

"Then what should we do? Rush over from the machine group? The shock will kill us." Xiao En is not afraid of death, he is afraid that the performance of this mecha that has just emerged from the nest will not be able to handle it.What's more, the Gaia has the supreme command right like an aircraft carrier. It can easily mobilize countless battle formations to deal with this lonely mecha. Once it is surrounded by those battle formations, it will not be clear how it died of.

Cooper thought for a moment, then raised his voice and asked, "Qiu, what do you think should be done?"

Sean also looked at Qiu.

Qiu had been looking out the window, and now he heard Cooper calling him, and turned his head slowly.

"Rush over!" Qiu's voice was not high, but firm and powerful, with the confidence of a strong man and the determination to move forward.

Sean and Cooper looked at each other.Keep silent.

After a moment, Sean whispered to Cooper. "coming."

Cooper didn't say a word, raised his hand and pushed the energy rod to the end, and the protective cover of the mecha suddenly brightened.Like a ball of glowing fire.

All the energy is concentrated on the shell defense system.

Li Zhonglin felt bad looking at the noodles flying up and down in the pot.

At that time, he was cooking noodles. In order to take care of Qiu, he specially chose to make egg noodles for sick patients.Beat eggs, put ham and sprinkle with chopped vegetables, the garlic ribs are tangy and fragrant.Seeing that the surface was almost ready, Li Zhonglin was about to turn off the fire, when Cooper yelled "Hold on!" through the communicator.

Amor, who was cutting bread next to him, lost his footing and fell on the chopping board, with slices of bread, lettuce, and cheese all over his chest.Seeing that the noodle pot was about to run away, Li Zhonglin rushed forward, risking being burned, hugged the noodle pot and firmly pressed the lid.

I don't know how much firepower outside the mecha spaceship was shooting at this place, and the bright protective cover was blown up like daylight.The mecha folded its wings and tail, and transformed into the shape of a bullet. While sharpening its head, it rushed forward while desperately resisting artillery attacks from all angles.The whole cabin was shaking under the intense gunfire, and everything was shaking.

Li Zhonglin couldn't stand still, so he sat down on the spot, holding a pot of noodles and turned to look at Amor who was also lying on the spot.

"Is this going to work, won't it fall apart?" Li Zhonglin was worried.

"It won't fall apart, but it's a waste of energy. I don't know if we can bring enough." Amor said.

He has experienced the Gombasi bug crisis, and he knows how powerful the products used by the Horn family are.The protective ability of this mecha is definitely not a problem, but this kind of energy-intensive action cannot last for too long, and it is best to solve it quickly.

Li Zhonglin opened the communication panel next to him. "Hey, Sean, how is the front? Is there enough energy?"

"It's enough, bear with it for a while. Left side roll 15 degrees, pitch 37..." Sean finished speaking in a hurry and continued to concentrate on helping Cooper lead the way.The mecha twisted in a snake shape and threw off several drones that were tightly biting their tails, rushing forward to a neutral position.

Li Zhonglin looked at Amor. "Let's stop cooking, let's eat something simple."

"I've eaten it all." Amor touched a piece of bread from his chest, then picked up a piece of lettuce wrap from his pants and stuffed them into his mouth.

After 10 minutes, the mecha got out of the heavy encirclement, crossed the dense defense zone of drones, and finally escaped.

Amor and Li Zhonglin scrambled back to the cab with food in their arms.

Both Cooper and Sean looked serious.

"The protective shield consumes too much energy. If we go on like this, we won't be able to fly back there." Cooper looked at the others.

"We can take Lieutenant Colonel Horn's boat back. Didn't Qiu say he's here?" Amor said.

"It's okay if we grab the Gaia number. There are a lot of things in the kitchen." Li Zhonglin's brain is still in the kitchen.

Cooper looked at Sean.

Sean looked at Qiu who had been silent all this time.He whispered to the others: "It's best to contact Major General Rogge, if he knows about our actions, he will find a way to support us."

Cooper nodded, "This idea is still reliable."

"Start work!" Amor distributed the sandwiches to everyone, and Li Zhonglin stuffed the pot to Qiu.Several people started the next job while eating, Cooper continued to drive the mech, Amor, Li Zhonglin and Sean all went to the communication station to contact the fleet.

Qiu was still looking out of the window, his head ached, his limbs went numb, and his temples were drenched in cold sweat, but he still kept his eyes open and didn't want to fall asleep.

He was thinking about what Elson had said.Noah Lantis, that lost empire was unimaginably powerful. It created the most glorious civilization in the universe, but it ruined its own future because of a great dream or a fatal mistake.

They are gone, taking away the splendor of this universe and the hustle and bustle of space.What is left to this world is the space for human beings to develop freely and unknown mysteries one after another.

However, the danger of the universe did not end with the departure of the Lantis people.The valley of reincarnation, the invading different time and space, the time axis that can be distorted, and the Gombasi bugs that appear from time to time, all of these need someone to guard and manage them.This is the content of the murals on the walls of the temple. As the oldest and most intelligent nation in the universe, the Noahs have guarded the temple, the clock, and the peace of the universe from generation to generation.

However, they suffered the most tragic murder in the world.A hasty decision and a brutal action made this nation disappear from the roster of the universe.They are their own people, their relatives, and the place where they should have been born.

History is so heavy, full of sorrow, resentment and humiliation...

"Qiu, eat quickly. I managed to save the noodles for you. It won't taste good after you let it cool." Li Zhonglin came over and pushed Qiu.

"Yeah, if you turn up the noodles later, you won't be able to eat them even if you want." Cooper also said.

Qiu lifted the lid of the pot, picked up a spoon, dug a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

The noodles are already out of shape, a sticky pot of broken strips congealed together.

Qiu doesn't care, now is not the time to care about these things.He knew that his body's blood oxygen content was too low after he lost blood, which is why he experienced various discomforts.The most important thing at this time is to maintain physical strength.If you're low on sugar because you don't eat, it's very easy to faint.So he had to eat more, Qiu stuffed the egg into his mouth, and took a few mouthfuls of soup indiscriminately.Looking around, Qiu suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Where is the little tree? Who of you has seen the little tree!" Qiu asked Sean.

"Hey, yeah, I said why it's so quiet." Amor said.Only then did everyone realize that Xiaoshu had disappeared at some point.

"It can't get out, I'll look for it." Sean stood up.

"No need to go." Cooper turned on the communicator to broadcast to the whole ship. "Give out the chicken legs, send out the chicken legs, who hasn't got the chicken legs, hurry up to the cockpit, and don't wait when it's over."

Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

After a while, the little tree really ran back.
