The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World - Chapter 629
c629 Huge city
“Da da……”
Outside, the four short-range defense systems at the nose of the airship opened fire.
Tongues of fire spit out, and amid the buzzing roar of the motor, fire dragons shot out, sweeping towards the incoming rockets.
“boom……”
A series of explosions suddenly occurred in the sky less than two hundred meters away from the airship.
Not a single rocket broke through the defense net and was intercepted.
“Captain, the high-speed target has appeared again. According to the flight trajectory, the enemy is about 11 kilometers away from us.”
Eleven kilometers?
This is a very short distance.
Waving his hand, Li Meng said: “No need to pay attention, they will never find us again when we enter the extreme temperature layer.”
At this moment, outside, the airship had approached the extreme temperature layer and slowly submerged into the extreme temperature layer.
Just when the entire body of the airship was about to disappear into the clouds, a roar swept across from the distance, and more than a dozen rockets whizzed past from underneath the airship and disappeared into the distance behind.
“Captain, the enemy has stopped attacking and no high-speed targets have been found in the air.”
As soon as Zhao Yufang finished speaking, Zhao Yuyan continued: “Captain, the captains asked if they want to continue the mission.”
Li Meng stood up and said: “The mission is suspended. Let Zhao Hongwen prepare a small team to follow me down to take a look.”
When Li Meng changed into protective clothing and came to Harbor No. 1 on the lower level, Zhao Hongwen was already ready.
“We are very close to the enemy. We can’t go down by the “Vulture” transport plane. We can only parachute. Zhao Hongwen, you take two pilots to go down with me. The others disperse.”
With that said, Li Meng came behind the heavy cavalry guard on the side and entered the cockpit from behind.
As the hatch closed, the originally kneeling heavy cavalry guard stood up amidst the sound of machinery running.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongwen quickly selected two pilots and boarded the plane one after another.
The four heavy mounted guards came to the rack one by one, took off the parachute bag from the rack, and put it on their bodies.
This is a special parachute bag for heavy cavalry guards, one at the front and one at the front. It is easy to wear and is a disposable item.
“Pay attention to my direction, don’t be too far away from me, let’s go…”
Under the leadership of Li Meng, four heavy cavalry guards came to the gate of the harbor.
“clank……”
He controlled the heavy cavalry guard to sprint quickly. Amidst the “clanging” footsteps, the heavy cavalry guard jumped out and disappeared into the extreme temperature outside.
Zhao Hongwen and his men followed closely behind, controlling the heavy cavalry guards to jump out of the airship.
In just a few seconds, in the dark sky, the clouds detoured, and four huge figures escaped from the extreme temperature layer and fell to the earth.
When the distance to the ground was less than 500 meters, Li Meng took the lead in opening the parachute. As the parachute opened, the heavy cavalry guard suddenly stopped falling and became slower and slower.
Under the huge resistance, the four heavy mounted guards slid slowly and finally landed on the ground.
As soon as he landed, Li Meng immediately tore off the parachute rope on his body and controlled the heavy cavalry to walk towards a low snow hill ahead.
The snow on the ground was very thick, and the heavy cavalry guard stepped on it with his iron feet, almost sinking into it.
But the heavy cavalry guards had plenty of strength and moved forward step by step on the snow-covered ground.
The other three people all landed smoothly, not far from Li Meng, and moved towards Li Meng.
“Captain, we haven’t encountered a decent force for a long time. We won’t encounter it today. I heard that Britain in the old days was just a small place, and there shouldn’t be any powerful forces.”
“No matter how strong it is, can it be stronger than Black Flag City? Let’s not talk about the military in Black Flag City. Take us as an example. If we attack those forces that we discover, most of the forces will not be able to do anything. Possibility of winning.”
After climbing over a hill, the four of them successfully reunited and walked forward in the snow.
Sitting in the cockpit, Li Meng looked at the vast snowfield in front of him, scanning all suspicious targets.
Listening to the conversation of several people in the communicator, Li Meng said: “Just because this is a small place, their living environment is likely to be better. The radiation value here is too low, and there will not be too strong strange beasts. If there was no low-temperature environment, this place might be a paradise, the most suitable place for human survival. ”
“Stop, get down…”
When the words fell, the four of them climbed another hill and came to the top of the mountain.
The front sight became vast, Li Meng controlled the heavy cavalry guard to half kneel on the ground, and then lay on the snow.
The three people beside Li Meng also fell to the ground almost subconsciously.
“Captain, you can’t really be fooled by what we say.”
In the cockpit, Li Meng frowned slightly as he looked at the picture captured by the electronic eye.
At the foot of the hills is a snowfield, the land is very flat, and just a few miles away, a city stands on the snowfield.
The city is not small, it is very big. The four of them can only see a huge steel city wall.
In the dim sky and earth, the lights on the city walls are bright, indicating that the city is not short of electricity at all.
The city is very long. Looking to both sides, you can’t see the end at a glance. The height of the city wall is preferably a hundred meters, and it looks very majestic.
Looking to the left, just at the left end of the city, there is a big mountain. From a distance, you can only see a shadow.
Seeing this, Li Meng understood in his heart that the airship was so close to the city and it should be visible from that height. It turned out that the view from the bridge was blocked by the mountain.
“Let’s go to the mountain on the left. The terrain here is too low and we can’t see the panoramic view of the city.”
As he spoke, Li Meng controlled the heavy mounted guard to retreat little by little, and did not stand up until he left the top of the mountain.
Zhao Hongwen and the other two people also retreated away from the top of the mountain little by little in order not to be discovered by the soldiers on the city wall.
Without entering the snowfield outside, the four of them moved among the hills and walked towards the mountain on the left side of the city.
Although it seemed very close, it was actually very far away. It took more than two hours of walking before the four of them arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Although the mountain is not steep, the road up the mountain is not easy because it is buried in snow.
Fortunately, the heavy cavalry guards have spikes on their feet, and they can penetrate deeply into the snow with one kick.
Without going to the top of the mountain, the four of them stopped on an exposed platform halfway up the mountain.
When the sight in front of them became vast, a huge city came into view of the four people.
The tall buildings in the city stand tall and the lights are bright, just like a modern big city. At a glance, the buildings are so continuous that there is almost no end in sight.
“Captain, the reason why the land of Europe is so empty is that not all the survivors are in this city.”
In the past few months, airships have been cruising on the European continent, but they have discovered almost no human settlements in the old era. Only a wooden village with a population of several hundred was found near the territory of eastern Russia.
“This city is so huge, with millions of people at least. How do they feed so many people?”
“There should be underground greenhouses. As long as there is electricity, there are many ways to grow food.”
“Where do they get the electricity? For such a big city, there must be at least one nuclear power plant to meet the supply.”
“Captain, with such a big city here, we may not be able to complete our mission. If we send out “Vulture” transport planes to search everywhere, we will definitely be discovered. We can only parachute heavy cavalry guards and disperse the search.”
Like the three of them, Li Meng was also very surprised.
I didn’t expect that there would be such a huge city in this remote place.
While surprised, Li Meng was also curious about how they did it. Did the British government in the old era not collapse and still exist today?
