I rely on myself

Chapter 836 Target Appearance
The Iron Cavalry and Gu Xin were flying in the front, and a group of Wasp submachine guns were chasing them from behind.

Although the Wasp submachines were fearless and could not retreat even if they suffered heavy losses, they would even split up from time to time and besiege Lin Yuan and Zhao Hong from different directions, but at most it only made the two of them feel a little thrilled.

After all, as the battle dragged on, the number of Wasp sub-machines was shot down by more than half from the original large group, and it was only a matter of time before the remaining sub-machines were shot down. The guy behind could no longer sit still at this moment.

"Drip drip drip..."

A burst of urgent alarms suddenly sounded in the cockpit. Zhao Hong was also startled and checked: "What's going on? High energy reaction?"

Before Zhao Hong could figure out what was going on, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the distant universe. Looking at this scene, Zhao Hong asked in confusion, "What is that?"

"Akihiro! Get out of the way! That's a beam weapon!!"

At this moment, Lin Yuan's anxious voice suddenly came from the communication. Zhao Hong was startled when he heard this, and his body reacted completely subconsciously. He controlled Gu Xin to leave the original place. The next moment, a huge pink beam of light instantly passed by the place where Gu Xin was originally from a distance.

Wherever the beam cannon passed, all the Wasp sub-machines were melted and exploded by the high temperature, turning into sparks that lit up the universe.

"…………!"

Although he successfully avoided the attack, Akihiro still looked scared at this time.

Looking at the sparks produced by the exploding Wasp submachine guns and the light beams that took a long time to dissipate, Akihiro couldn't imagine what would have happened to him if he hadn't dodged in time.

"Akira, are you okay?"

At this time, Lin Yuan's concerned voice was heard, and at the same time, the figure of the Iron Cavalry appeared beside Gu Xin, and the two of them met smoothly.

As for the Wasp submachines that were originally chasing the two people, most of them that were chasing Gu Xin were destroyed by the beam cannon just now. A small part of them joined the part that was chasing the Iron Cavalry, and all gave up the pursuit and turned to join the MA.

"Lin Yuan, what was that just now?"

"It should be a large beam cannon, a type of beam weapon. It was one of the main weapons three hundred years ago. However, with the emergence of nano-layer armor that can resist beams, it has almost disappeared now."

While explaining, Lin Yuan also specifically pointed out that the threat posed by beam weapons to them was not as great as they imagined.

"That's it..."

After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Zhao Hong was indeed somewhat relieved. After all, compared to kinetic weapons, beam weapons were undoubtedly superior in terms of range and bullet flight speed.

For Akihiro, who was used to dealing with kinetic weapons, it was too difficult for him to adapt to them all at once. Now that he knew that beam weapons did not pose much threat to MS with nano-layer armor, Akihiro was of course somewhat relieved.

"Well, don't be too careless. After all, the only thing that is immune to beam weapons is the nano-layer armor. If we are hit somewhere else by chance, we will still be shot down, so it's better to be careful."

Lin Yuan had just said that beam weapons were not a big threat, but then he turned around and said that it was better to be careful. Zhao Hong understood this very well. After all, it was right to be cautious on the battlefield.

"I understand. That big guy must be the so-called MA." Akihiro said as he looked at the big guy that appeared in the distance, indicating that he understood the reminder.

"Oh, that's right, that's our target this time, the MA hive." Lin Yuan replied affirmatively, also looking at the huge MA appearing in the distance.

————MA Hive.

During the Calamity War three hundred years ago, he was one of the MAs that wiped out a quarter of the human race at that time. Unlike other MAs, he is more of a logistical type.

The height of the machine is more than four times that of an ordinary MS. It looks like a cross from a distance. There are many propulsion nozzles on the back, which makes its acceleration and maneuverability very high.

In addition to the large number of automatic turrets and a large beam cannon on its chest, this machine is more dependent on its own internally produced mobile engineering sub-machine - the Wasp as a means of attack.

In addition to attacking, Wasp submachines are also responsible for collecting resources and repairing the hive.

It is precisely because of this function that the MA Hive was able to fight almost endlessly during the Calamity War three hundred years ago.

Although Zhaohong knew about this characteristic of MA from Lin Yuan before, after seeing it in reality, he still felt that he had thought it was too simple before.

After all, compared to what you say verbally, there is no deeper feeling than actually seeing it with your own eyes, and this is the case with Akihiro at this moment.

“Hey, hey, hey, hey… this number?! Are you sure you’re not mistaken?!”

Perhaps because they themselves have already appeared, the hive has no hidden ideas and sent out all the Wasp daughter machines. The result is what Lin Yuan and Zhao Hong see now: densely packed Wasp daughter machines are following around the MA hive.

"It's estimated that there are more than 300 sub-machines. It's really worthy of being a logistics-type MA. Even if not many resources were collected in these 300 years, it's still amazing that so many sub-machines were produced."

Not to mention Zhao Hong, Lin Yuan was also very surprised when he saw this scene.

After all, in Lin Yuan's original estimate, during these three hundred years, because the universe it was located in was relatively remote, the hive should not be able to collect too many resources. In addition, it had to maintain satellites, so the number of sub-machines it could produce should be around one hundred to two hundred. But the facts proved that Lin Yuan still underestimated it.

There are more than 300 Wasp sub-machines in total. Even a part of the troops sent out for exploration before have been shot down. If those are added, the number is probably enough to exceed 400. It can be said that this number is very terrifying.

"Lin Yuan, what should we do? This number is much greater than we expected. Should we flee?"

Although he is muscular, Akihiro is not a hot-blooded guy. He is even calmer than many people. Therefore, he has no burden about running away and just says it directly.

"Wait, let's give it a try first. Although there are too many of them, we should be able to handle them with our strength, so let's give it a try first."

On the other hand, Lin Yuan said something a bit risky, which naturally worried Zhao Hong, so he advised: "But..."

"I know what you're worried about, but let's just give it a try. After all, we've come all this way, and it would be a shame if it's all in vain."
