Chapter 87 Cavalry

The role of escorting ordinary people is really not acceptable to ordinary people.thought Lydia.

After all, it is not in line with her philosophy to regard other people's lives as more important than her own.

"Mr. Lydia, or you leave me and run away!"

A frail man next to her was holding a flat box, and he suggested loudly while following Lydia through the narrow alley.

"Ma'am! Ma'am! How many times have I said it's a lady! Who told you how many are Mr.? Give me respect for my other organ, or I'll let you experience what Mr. Lydia is!"

Lydia grabbed him by the middle, helped him flip over a collapsed wall, and put it down. With the assistance of light exoskeleton armor, this action was a breeze for a person of her physical fitness.

"Sorry……"

"Don't be sorry, someone is chasing you!" Lydia slammed the man into her arms and rolled over to avoid a round of fire. She didn't need to look back to know that the person who shot from behind was the Imperial Army.

Not only behind, but also in front.

Many people dressed in combat uniforms of the imperial army appeared in the streets and alleys. They were well-equipped and advanced weapons, but they were only advance troops, and they were only temporarily transferred to stop them.

Regardless of the man beside him, they would definitely kill Lydia on the spot.

Lydia rolled into a half-collapsed house with the mission goal in mind. She had no choice but to run away by herself. The probability of running away by herself was not small. She was sure to die with this trash.

Anyway, this guy might not die after being caught for a while, it's better... Lydia looked at the box in his hand and stretched out her palm.

The imperial army outside was advancing here, the man panted heavily, took a deep look at Lydia, and passed the box over: "Lydia first...Miss Lydia, I hope to have a chance... Phew... ..."

A roar of engines and one after another of gunshots interrupted their unfeeling parting. Lydia's expression was startled at first, and then she poked her head out and smiled.

"My comrades are here, you stay hidden, I'll go out and kill them all." Lydia ducked her head to avoid a bullet, and patted the man on the shoulder.

After saying that, she seized the gap and jumped out the window. What she could see was a heavy locomotive speeding along the road. The driver held a gun in one hand, and while avoiding the attack, he accurately dealt with the exposed imperial army.

The modified wheels rolled over the gravel and kicked up dust.

Most people's attention was so attracted by this person that they ignored Lydia who jumped out of the window.

This cost them two more teammates.

The battle ended quickly, during which the driver jumped off. He was wearing a helmet and didn't have much armor on his body, but at the cost of only minor injuries, he eliminated all the imperial troops on his side.

The rebels are proficient in street fighting. After being caught off guard and without a huge advantage in numbers, failure is an inevitable result.

Lydia stepped on the head of an Imperial soldier and put a final shot in the throat as her comrades moved to his side.

"I've been looking for you for a long time, is your escort target dead?"

The man took off his helmet and shook his head that was a little dazed from the impact.

"Can you have a little confidence in me?" Lydia pushed him and walked to the place where he hid before, "Speaking of which, why did you come here, Lin?"

Linshu looked around, but still felt uneasy and put the helmet back: "Zacharia will come here, so I want to come here first... Anyway, I heard that you are in trouble, so I will come to help you."

Linshu's language organization ability has always been poor, and Lydia can almost understand it, so she didn't care too much about him, nodded and said: "If it wasn't for the bad weather today, you can see it if you look up."

She pointed to the gray sky.

Linshu didn't speak.

They went back to the place where the frail man was hiding and called him out. The man was still holding the box and staring at Linshu vigilantly.

"Don't worry, Chester, you can go with him later." Lydia pointed to Linshu, "He has a specialty in art, and he is better at protecting others than me."

Linshu didn't know the identity of this man named Chester, but Lydia didn't take the initiative to tell him, which meant that his authority was not enough, and he might be a key person who held some secrets.

"Let me take him back, where are you going?" Linshu asked.

Lydia glanced at Linshu's car: "The people who chased us were the emperor's engineers. It took me a lot of effort to get rid of him. The empire is really shameless. The full version of the exoskeleton armor is not suitable for street fighting. They actually copied our light armor."

As she spoke, she tapped the exoskeleton on the auxiliary arm part. This exoskeleton is customized according to each person's situation, so only a vanguard of Lydia's level is eligible to equip it.

Although the empire is not as poor as the rebel army, it is impossible to customize the exoskeleton for every soldier, even a cut version of the light exoskeleton.

Originally, we also copied the empire, and everyone was quite shameless.Lin Shu thought about it in his heart, but he didn't open his mouth to scold his own people.

"He can determine my location. It's dangerous for Chester to follow me." Lydia exhaled, "Give me your car, and I'll go back and kill him."

There is a specialization in the art industry, and Lydia is proficient in vehicle driving and head-to-head confrontation.

Lin Shu nodded and accepted Lydia's commission: "Alright, be careful and come back alive."

"You think I'm the same as you? My life is more important than anyone else." Lydia shrugged and went out to the side of the vehicle that Linshu rode, "If you can't beat me, I will run."

Lydia left, Linshu looked at Chester, and found that this guy was sobbing with his arms folded.

"Mr. Lydia is too brave, he is a true knight." Chester choked up, "If he comes back alive, I will definitely pursue him."

Linshu was silent for a moment: "If your sexual orientation is a man, you won't be able to catch up with her. She has a psychological perception as a woman. Besides, it's impolite to call a lady a gentleman."

Then he pushed Chester, signaling him not to delay, and to leave quickly.

Chester argued unwillingly: "I will try to make him a man for me."

Linshu pulled him by the collar and walked out with a headache: "You might as well go transgender and become a woman. She can accept homosexuality as a woman. We'll talk about this kind of thing later."

Chester froze for a moment, and finally followed Linshu obediently, apparently thinking about the feasibility of sex change.

Emotional issues are really complicated.Linshu sighed deeply, he glanced at the dark clouds in the sky, his eyelids slightly lowered.

The shadow of Leviathan is getting closer.

-

Linshu brought Chester to one of the bases of the rebel army in Lawrence Plain, and he was about to apply for a team to find Lydia. As Leviathan approached, the engineers who were related to the emperor might not Come in handy, so Lydia can't be sacrificed easily.

Just when he was ready to go, Lydia had sent back a message saying that she had successfully killed the hapless engineer, but she was dying and needed medical soldiers urgently.

So the people who went to respond were replaced by medical staff.

After Lydia came back, she received treatment for a long time. Chester cried for two hours outside her operating room. As a result, Lydia came out and beat Chester with a cane just after the stitches were finished.

Fortunately, Linshu stepped forward to stop him in time, otherwise Chester would have to go into the operating room instead.

"I hate crying men the most." Lydia, who finally got clean, lay on the bed and complained to Linshu.

Lin Shu thought for a while: "I think it's okay..."

Lydia knew what he was talking about, and moved to the head of the bed: "The emperor is not a man, he is not even a human being."

"So how is the battle going now?" Linshu changed the subject.

"It's not very optimistic. To be precise, it's very bad." Lydia pointed to the apple on the bedside. The district has already started to suffer."

Linshu handed the apple to Lydia: "If you are so strong, can't you handle it?"

"Because I am too." Lydia touched the smooth skin of the apple, recalling the earlier events, "The task of escorting Chester, we actually formed a team of 20 people."

Linshu was sure that when he found Lydia, there were no other members of the rebel army besides Chester, so he tried to ask: "They were all..."

"That's not true." Lydia shook her head. "It went well at first, but then we met an engineer who could locate me and couldn't get rid of me. If it continues, we will definitely be surrounded."

"So I separated the team and took Chester alone to attract the engineers so that others could escape successfully."

"Why don't you let Chester follow the large army?" Linshu asked.

"The engineer who Chester followed the big team wouldn't chase me." Lydia raised her eyebrows, as if she felt that Linshu was not very smart, "Their target is not me."

"Then your chances of successfully escorting Chester will decrease." Lin Shu still didn't quite understand.

"Isn't it good that the survival rate of other people will increase." Lydia shrugged, "I have judged that Chester's life is not worth the sacrifice of my teammates. "

Everyone has different personalities and ways of dealing with things. Lydia is a very free-wheeling person. She does not put tasks first, and the present is always more important than the future.

"Chester really likes you, how sad you are for not paying attention to him so much." Linshu sighed.

"It's just the drawbridge effect. Besides, there are so many people who like me, who wants to respond to the feelings of trash."

Lydia clicked her tongue, "He also killed a teammate of mine, it's not easy for me not to strangle him."

"Well, having said that, can you judge the approximate number of engineers?" Lin Shu stopped chatting, "If it's only a small number, it's not a big problem."

"Ordinary people can't tell whether the opponent is an engineer. On the battlefield, we encountered more than 100 people who were suspected of being an engineer. There were also hundreds of people who were directly observed from the vicinity of Leviathan and were driving various air vehicles. Of course Not sure if all of them are."

Lydia tossed the apple back into Linshu's hand, "Peel off the apple, and thank you for being kind to the wounded—we got news that there are at least [-] engineers on Leviathan, and the emperor can add more... …in their words, breeding, breeding more sappers.”

"This word, it seems that he is some kind of ant queen or worm mother." Linshu lowered his head to peel the apple, and frowned.

Lydia raised the corner of her mouth: "How are you sure he's not?"

"At least it doesn't look like the shape." Linshu cut the apples into pieces and put them on the plate.

"I think they are similar in size." Lydia pointed to the ceiling, "Isn't the Leviathan huge? They are a whole."

"I think, maybe the prototype of Leviathan is that big...Maybe it is something like an ant queen, and then gives birth to countless small worker ants to work, and I am the core of the group. In fact, you can see that the model is not Is it about the same?"

"Maybe it's because the prototype of Leviathan couldn't be copied, so the metal-built airship was used instead of the body, and the effect is even better."

Linshu put down the fruit knife, thought carefully for a while, and said, "It's not like you guessed it."

Lydia poked a piece of apple with the fruit knife he put down and put it in her mouth: "Well... It's really not completely based on guesswork. Some people who participated in the Leviathan research and development project defected to the rebel army and brought a lot of information , I peeked at part of it."

"However, Leviathan is definitely different from something like the Queen Ant. Compared with engineers who can only work as handymen, its lethality is simply not a concept."

The cartilage in her throat rolled, and she looked into Linshu's black eyes: "In short, things like Leviathan cannot be solved by us in a short time."

"So I reckon Zemel will be looking for you soon."

Linshu tilted his head: "What?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the terminal vibrated in his pocket.

Lydia: rider;

Yofasa: caster;

Linshu: Assassin, otherwise is it a ruler?
