Chapter 211 Twin Buildings
“Crack!”
A cold light flashed, and a head fell to the ground.
This is a warrior escorting a backup stance device, with a special tripod and a silver-white alloy short stick on his back.
Su Xia had a blank expression on his face. He put away the device and continued to rush to the next target.
There were still more than 30 helicopters hovering in the sky, and the positioning mechanisms on those helicopters were still turned on, blocking a small piece of sky, so Su Xia only moved on the ground.
"Damn, where did that masked weirdo go?"
"We've lost track of the enemy!"
"We need support!"
“…”
For both families, the situation was getting worse.
This set of stand facilities is extremely expensive, and they don't have many spare devices here, only thirty. Unless all of them are installed back, they can form a blockade of the entire area.
But now, in less than five minutes, three escort teams had lost contact.
The masked man seemed to have countless pairs of eyes and could accurately locate the positions of the soldiers escorting the backup equipment.
This is indeed the case.
Most of the nanorobots that Su Xia had sent out before were damaged in the explosion of the stand device. A small number of them did not encounter the explosion and survived, and then served as Su Xia's eyes on various high-rise buildings.
Su Xia's speed was astonishingly fast, almost flying close to the ground, and in less than a minute he eliminated another escort team.
“Sizzle…”
He tore off a small piece of rag and casually wiped the blood off his body.
Then he put away the device and immediately went to the next building based on the location reported by the nanorobot.
These devices are very special, and he plans to find someone to study them after he returns. Even if they cannot be reverse-engineered, they can still serve as makeshift bombs.
The compressed spiritual energy inside was quite terrifying, and Su Xia saw the power generated by the explosion with her own eyes.
When the rest of the soldiers arrived at the scene, Su Xia had disappeared without a trace, and they only saw a bloody corpse on the ground.
"Damn it, we're a step too slow again!"
"Where are the reinforcements?"
"The reinforcements have arrived. Two teams just had a conflict with the masked man, but they couldn't stop him at all. He is too strong!"
“…”
After losing the help of Standpoint, the gap between these ordinary fighters and Su Xia once again became insurmountable.
Even a sniper team of hundreds of people could not keep Su Xia from stopping for even a moment.
In fact, as long as Su Xia had time, he could kill them one by one, but his primary target now was those stand devices.
Even if he encountered some blocking soldiers, he would just knock a few of them over at random and then pass by quickly.
In the command room, the top leaders of both companies looked extremely unhappy.
"No, another escort team has lost contact."
"We can no longer stop the masked man. We only have two options left."
"Either we contact the Mechanical Clan and ask them for help, or...we indiscriminately bomb the entire area..."
When they heard the second method, everyone's expression changed, and they were obviously considering the feasibility of this method.
They have paid too heavy a price.
If we still can't keep the masked man away, we will become a complete laughing stock.
Compared with future reputation and rights, bombing the entire area does not seem unacceptable. At most, a few thousand civilians will die, and the responsibility can be put on the gas pipeline explosion afterwards.
As long as we can kill the masked man, everything will be worth it.
"no!"
After all, there were still rational people here who immediately spoke out to reject this opinion.
"That masked man is as fast as a ghost. Once the bombing begins, he will quickly flee the area. What should we do then?"
"Should we follow him and bomb all the way there?"
"Wake up, we have lost the initiative!"
This person hit the nail on the head and stated a cruel truth.
The balance of victory has tilted towards Su Xia, and now their two families have become the passive ones.
"If the masked man wants, he can leave this area now!"
Psychic positions are dead, but people are alive and can run wherever they want.
With the masked man's terrifying speed, he could run out of this area in the blink of an eye. The reason he hasn't left yet is just to collect more stand devices.
"Now either go and ask the mechanical tribe for help, or beg for peace with the masked weirdo in a humble manner."
There are only these two options, there is no third one.
With so many people killed and so much cost paid by both families, it is almost impossible for them to make peace.
But, to ask the mechanical tribe...
When they thought of this, they felt a little uncomfortable.
"Wait a little longer! The masked man has been fighting continuously and has been hit by the Psychic Cannon. He may be at the end of his rope!"
"Send more people over to block off the streets in that area!"
"Hurry up!"
They were not willing to ask the mechanical clan for help for the time being and could only grit their teeth and delay for a while.
…
At this moment, in the Mechanical Clan base, Mechanical City Lord Roche, who was watching the real-time images, shook his head slightly, feeling a little disappointed.
The moment those rooftop stand devices exploded...
He knew that both families were doomed to lose!
No matter how hard you try, you will only delay the arrival of failure.
"That masked man is quite capable. How did he do it?"
Roche closed his eyes slightly, replaying the scenes of the previous explosions in his mind again and again.
"Logically speaking, the Masked Man is not much stronger than an ordinary person. He cannot control too much metal. It is impossible for him to destroy the mechanical facilities on the roof from such a long distance. Moreover, he has never approached those facilities in previous battles, unless..."
"Unless he has some invisible helpers."
Yu Tuo suddenly spoke up and accurately judged the real situation.
Today's strange situation reminded him of that night at the manor.
That night, that loser Qi Lang used members of the Machete Organization as bait, hoping to lure out the resistance forces in the city along with the masked man.
At that time, he was full of confidence and personally took charge of the manor.
However, he ended up losing more than he gained. Not only did he lose the bait, he also lost Zhao Si's right-hand man.
According to the subsequent summary, the figures of the resistance organization did not appear in the surveillance footage at the time, and there was no underground passage at that location, but they suddenly appeared inside the manor, as if they had entered invisibly.
Since then, Yu Tuo has been suspecting that the masked man might have something that can make him invisible.
"It can become invisible according to the environment, and can disperse its movements. It should be very small and can be combined at will. Could it be a special microscopic creature?"
"Can the micro-robots being researched at headquarters do this?"
"No, that project is in trouble and needs to overcome many technical problems. There has been no progress in the past few years..."
Mercer obviously knew something about this.
The micro robots at the Mechanical Clan headquarters simply can't do this.
The difficulty of integrating a large number of functions into such a small mechanical body has exceeded the scope of what the mechanical family can understand at this stage.
Unless they can make a major breakthrough in their reverse engineering of the alien spacecraft wreckage, they may be stuck for decades.
"This masked stranger is a bit mysterious . Try to capture him alive. Maybe he has something we want." Mercer asked Roche with a deep look in his eyes. "Fish Scale City is your territory. Can you capture him alive?"
"No problem, leave it to me!"
Even after seeing Su Xia's series of performances, Roach was still full of confidence.
At his command, the entire mechanical base instantly came alive and countless mechanical warriors woke up from their slumber.
Behind the mechanical clan, the huge square suddenly sank slowly. Not long after, a series of graceful fighter planes rose from the ground, and the black and gold streamlined fuselages sparkled in the sun.
These fighter planes do not require human piloting. They are also members of the mechanical family, but their appearance has been changed in pursuit of faster flight.
Not every member of the machine race likes the human form.
At the same time, small-scale vibrations occurred simultaneously in the suburban areas around Yuling City.
Some hidden sub-bases slowly rose from under the lake, in the mountains, and in the forests. There were a large number of sleeping mechanical warriors in each base. Today, they were awakened one by one by Roche, ready to join the hunt for Su Xia.
"Brother Yu Tuo, you didn't use your full strength every time you dealt with the masked man. Are you worried about exposing your full strength to the resistance organization?"
With a smile on his face, Roche said to Yu Tuo on the other side of the screen: "It is good to be cautious, but being too cautious will allow the enemy to do whatever they want."
"Some powers should not be used too early." Yu Tuo replied indifferently.
"Perhaps we have different perspectives on things. After all, you are not a pure mechanical person."
Roche shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.
Sometimes he even wondered if Yu Tuo was too bored in Coral City and wanted to find an opponent to fight with, so he deliberately kept the masked monster?
I heard that the masked man was less than level four when he first appeared, and Yu Tuo should have been fully capable of killing him at that time.
Could it be that Yu Tuo wanted to use the pressure from the masked man to put pressure on the human officials in Coral City?
The mechanical race doesn't care about the life and death of humans in the city.
In Fish Scale City, Roche has always adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards the humans in the city, allowing the two families to do whatever they want.
There had never been any major trouble.
Just today...
The two families can no longer hold on.
In the command room, the faces of the top executives of both families looked so ugly that it was hard to describe.
"Another team escorting the backup device has lost contact. The stand cannot be rebuilt unless the stand device in the sky is transferred to the ground to reduce the range of the stand."
"Oh no! That masked man has escaped from the stance area!"
"What?"
No one could sit still anymore. They all stood up, their bodies tensed, and stared at the images on the screens.
The news finally came.
The question now is, where is the masked man going?
It was approaching noon, and the fog in the city had thinned a little under the sunshine.
The helicopter in the sky rumbled and flew very high, and Su Xia could just be seen speeding along the street.
And the direction Su Xia was heading was...
city center!
In the city center of Yuling City, there are two magnificent high-rise buildings, belonging to the Jiang family and the Wei family. The headquarters of the two groups are located here.
These two tall buildings are the landmark buildings of Yuling City and are called Twin Buildings.
"What does he want to do?"
Everyone in the command room felt as if they were facing a powerful enemy, with cold sweats breaking out on their backs.
Just at this moment, Su Xia on the street suddenly turned a corner and headed towards an aircraft museum not far away.
