Volume 20 Chapter 143 Is There a Trap?

Volume 20, Chapter 143: Is there a trap?

"Damn, what happened?"

The spacecraft that was knocked upside down was in chaos. Because there was no warning of the impact, many people flew out without reacting. [_] "Please familiarize yourself with the domain name." Fortunately, the speed of the spacecraft was not very fast. It only dropped a little after the impact at a speed of fifteen kilometers. However, the people on the ship felt that the impact just now seemed quite serious.

"Has anyone seen the point of impact?" The captain climbed up from the window and anxiously stretched his head and shouted into the bridge.

The operators who had just gotten up were shaking their heads. Obviously, no one knew exactly what happened. However, although the personnel on the bridge did not know what happened, the observers outside around the ship discovered a problem.

Because our spaceship is very large, we cannot observe nearby objects from the bridge position. After all, the hull is too high. If something comes close to the spacecraft, it will be covered by the deck. Therefore, in order to cope with navigation in a narrow area, Novo Lin and the others also specially designed many observation points around the periphery of the spacecraft. After we arrive at Steel City, all these observation points will be equipped with magic eyes, so that we can see real-time images of various positions of the spacecraft in the bridge. However, because there is no ready-made magic eye system on the floating island in the New World, It has not been installed on the spacecraft yet, and it needs to wait until the steel city and weapons and ammunition are installed together. However, although these installation locations are not equipped with magic eyes, we have arranged crew members to act as temporary observation posts at these locations, so the observation posts around the spacecraft will definitely be able to see the situation now.

Sure enough, not long after the installation took place, a report came back immediately from the observation post.

"What's going on?" The captain asked quickly when he saw that the message was from the observation post in front.

"Report, the spacecraft seems to have caught on the steel cable just now."

"Steel cable? Where did the steel cable come from in this canyon?"

"I don't know either, but there are indeed a lot of steel cables here, criss-crossing like spiders."

"Really...!" After thinking about it, the captain still didn't know what to say, so he could only turn to the driver and said: "Turn off the main engine and switch to the parking state." The so-called parking state means that the propeller does not produce horizontal movement. traction force, and the solar furnace no longer generates upward buoyancy. In this state, the suspension attitude of the spacecraft will be completely handed over to the gravity resistance device invented by the Germans. This can minimize energy consumption and also play a stabilizing role. After all, the gravity resistance device invented by the Iron Crusaders After it is started, it is like a space-time anchor. Unless the machine is destroyed, you can't expect it to move even with great efforts.

After turning off the engine, the captain ran to the bow of the ship with a large group of crew members, but he actually arrived relatively late. When he arrived here, Hongyue and I were already standing there directing the staff to cut the steel cables, and next to us stood the person the captain least wanted to see - Masamoto Matsumoto.

"President, what's going on here?" After the captain ran over, he completely dismissed Masamoto Matsumoto as nothing, and started talking to me directly, pretending not to see him.

Masamoto Matsumoto also knew that the other party did not want to see him, so he did not take the initiative to talk to him. Instead, he turned around and exchanged a few words with August Kaoru and the others, who immediately went to direct his NPCs to get busy.

When I saw Matsumoto Masaru and the others not quarreling with the captain, I didn't say anything, and explained directly to the captain: "When we came over, we saw these steel cables wrapped around the bow, and 80% of them were steel cables. The cables have been forcibly torn off by the force of the spacecraft. The holes on the cliffs on both sides are the cracks caused by the hooks fixed in the rocks being pulled out with brute force. It seems that if we go faster just now, we can directly pull out these steel cables. All the cables were torn.”

After hearing this, the captain asked suspiciously: "But how come there are steel cables lying across the canyon in a place like this? And there are so many of them?"

Masamoto Matsumoto, who had not spoken to him just now, suddenly said: "Looking at the marks on the steel cable, this thing should have just been installed in the past two days, and judging from this arrangement, it is definitely prepared to intercept something, but We haven’t yet found out who installed it and what exactly it was intended to intercept.”

"These two days probably weren't specially prepared for us," the captain said.

The Blazing Dragon Lady who was standing aside said somewhat unhappily: "Nonsense, you all decided to go here temporarily. Even if someone leaked the news, you wouldn't have time to pretend in such a short time. Besides, this thing is not meant to intercept us at first glance. It’s prepared by the spacecraft, otherwise this kind of thin cable wouldn’t be used.”

"What do you mean by that?" The captain became obviously angry.

Just as the Blazing Dragon Lady was about to speak, I jumped in and scolded her: "Everyone, please be quiet. If anyone is making trouble, I will let them guard the Way of Returning Yang."

Huanyang Road is the passage from Essinger to the Eleventh Hall of Yama. Because that place is more important, there are two players and a dozen high-level NPCs guarding the entrance. However, because Huanyang Road is connected to the Yincao underworld, there will always be Yin Qi leaking out there. Since Yin Qi can make people feel cold, staying there is worse than standing naked in a freezer. It's cold, and because this kind of coldness is a kind of coldness in the soul, it's useless to wear any clothes, even if the equipment has cold resistance attributes, it's useless. After all, it's not low temperature at all. You have to get a thermometer to measure it. , the temperature is basically the same as other places, but people will shiver as soon as they go there. For this reason, guarding the Returning Yang Dao has basically become the most unpopular job in our guild. Therefore, later we simply regarded guarding the Returning Yang Dao as a means of punishment, just like punishing students in schools for cleaning. Like the toilet, it is a milder punishment.

One of the Blazing Dragon Princess and the captain is in Japan, and the other is always at sea. The time they return to Isengard is very small, but even so, they have heard about the horror of the Way of Returning the Yang, so they will be punished when they hear what I say. Shou Huanyangdao immediately did not dare to speak.

Seeing that they all calmed down, I nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Okay, the previous conflicts are all in the past. You must pay attention to unity in the future. Especially you." I nodded and the captain said: "I I know you are an anti-Japanese veteran, but Matsumoto Masaga is one of our own now. Your thoughts can't always stay in the previous state, right? Besides, even if you have a grudge against Matsumoto Masaga, the Blazing Dragon Princess has not offended you. , she joined the Frost Rose Alliance earlier than you. She was already a member of our guild when we were still fighting with Matsumoto Masaru. You can't just not deal with them just because they are from the Yamato clan, right? We are hostile to them. It’s Japan’s aggressive thinking, not the Japanese, you’d better figure out the priorities.”

"I'm sorry, President. I also know that this is wrong, but when I think about being bullied by Matsumoto Masa and his fleet, I feel panicked!"

"Okay, okay, I also know that there is a reason why you have such thoughts, but you have to use reason to control your emotions. Now you can go back to the bridge to take command. Matsumoto Masa and I will go and pull the steel cables. Get everyone down, listen to my signal and prepare to start."

"OK."

After the captain left, I ran to the bow of the ship with August Kaoru, Matsumoto Masaga and the others and started cleaning the steel cables. Originally, these steel cables were crisscrossed to block the canyon, but because they were pulled apart by the spacecraft, many of them were entangled and knotted and hung on some protrusions on the spacecraft. To keep these things safe After nong, I can only untie those knots little by little. However, Matsumoto Masaga and I both had better weapons, so we both directly used our swords to cut off the cables that were wrapped like mohua. The so-called sharp knife cuts the knot, and it is indeed much faster to use it to cut than to use it.

As the steel cables broke one after another, the spacecraft finally gradually broke away from its restraints. Matsumoto Masaga took the last steel cable and cut it with a sword, then threw away the cable and said to me: "President, there should be no problem now."

I nodded and connected to the communication on the bridge. "The bow of the ship has been cleared. Let's see if it can move."

"Understood." The captain immediately told the operator after receiving the notification: "Switch to sailing mode. The single engine is moving forward with low power, and pay attention to speed control."

"Understood, the navigation mode switch is completed, the single engine micro power is started, the speed is 0, 1,

2 determined. "

With a slight vibration, the stagnant spacecraft finally started to move again. However, as soon as it started, I heard a heart-wrenching friction sound. A large number of rocks on the side of the mountain were brought down by the hull, and the other side didn't seem to be in good condition either. Some places were forcibly scratched by the hull. Several large ditches emerged. Obviously, the canyon is not as wide as stated in the data. It should be that the original measurement location was not the narrowest place in the canyon, so the error occurred. Fortunately, it was almost the same. Although the hulls on both sides of the ship scraped against the rocks, we were still able to squeeze through.

As the ship moved forward little by little, the stone powder kept falling from the mountains on both sides. Masaga Matsumoto and I were afraid that the ship would squeeze the entire mountain. . We are not afraid that the mountain will fall and hit people, but we are worried that once the mountain is collapsed, we will be completely exposed to the sight of the people around us. At that time, it will not just be as simple as leaking secrets, maybe even Matsumoto Zhenghe's identity will be exposed. However, fortunately, the mountain peak did not fall until the widest part of the spacecraft squeezed through the narrow gap. As the widest part passed, the speed of the spacecraft immediately began to increase significantly. Although the valley ahead is not too wide, it is at least not as narrow as here.

Originally we thought we had passed without any danger this time, but who knew that just when I was about to say something to Masamoto Matsumoto, Masamoto Matsumoto suddenly received a guild communication from the new Black Dragon Club members.

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Although I couldn't hear the internal communication of the New Black Dragon Society, I could clearly see Matsumoto Masaru's congratulatory expression. I could tell from his huddled eyebrows that it was definitely not the case. What good news.

Sure enough, after I asked, Masamoto Matsumoto first exchanged a few words with the person opposite, then turned to me and said: "Just now my people reported that a group of people insisted on going up the mountain, and our people went to stop them, but both sides The fight started. Now someone from the other side has broken through the blockade and is heading up the mountain!"

"Holy shit, don't let him come up!"
