Doomsday Sequence Caravan: I Have a Mechanical Heart

Su Mu and Ling Hao rushed towards the convoy.

Ling Hao glanced at Su Mu. "Should we kick all the people in those cars out?"

"It's best to let them out," Su Mu nodded, "because once they transform, there's a high risk of death or injury."

"Okay." Ling Hao responded, and after arriving at the convoy, he shouted loudly to the people in the outermost cars, "Get out of your cars right now."

"We'll use your cars to ward off the eerie."

"Hurry up, everyone."

But when the ordinary people in those cars heard Ling Hao's words, not one of them was willing to get out; almost all of them locked the car doors tightly.

Some people even started their cars, preparing to flee the area.

Seeing this, Ling Hao's eyes turned cold, and he cursed, "These people are truly a bunch of ingrates."

"We protect them all the time."

"Now that we've tried using their cars, they've all run away."

"In that case," Su Mu thought for a moment, "we can only shrink our defensive perimeter."

"Stop them from it."

"Okay." Ling Hao understood Su Mu's meaning: he wanted to use the cars of several of their trusted confidants to build a metal protective shield.

In this critical moment, Ling Hao made a decisive move, rushing into the inner circle of the convoy and shouting to the people in the seven or eight SUVs, "Get out of there right now!"

"We need a car to ward off the supernatural, otherwise we'll all die!!"

As expected of Ling Hao and his group's confidants, the people in the car jumped off without hesitation.

"Have your men keep an eye on those people outside," Su Mu said, walking to the nearest car. "Don't let them get close."

"Understood." Ling Hao nodded with a gloomy look in his eyes. "I won't let them in even if you don't tell me."

"Attention everyone, keep a close eye on the people in those cars on the outer perimeter."

"Anyone who dares to come in will be crippled on the spot."

"Yes," the confidants replied in unison, each one staring intently at the cars on the perimeter.

Su Mu reached out and placed his hand on one of the off-road vehicles. A blue light appeared on his hand and began to spread rapidly towards the other off-road vehicles.

Ten seconds later, all eight SUVs were completely enveloped in the mist.

Su Mu took a deep breath, and with a thought, the energy in his mechanical heart surged out rapidly.

The next moment, the eight off-road vehicles began to change rapidly under the power of the mechanical heart.

Although it was just a simple metal protective shield with no technical sophistication, it consumed a considerable amount of energy because it covered a large area of ​​about 200 square meters.

The vehicles quickly transformed, and metal plates rapidly assembled to form a circular, yurt-shaped metal protective shield.

The entire transformation process was not slow; it took only a dozen seconds to complete the transformation of the entire metal protective shield. However, there were no windows, only a metal door about one meter wide.

The metal parts on those vehicles were almost completely exhausted, leaving only non-metallic items such as wheels and seats lying on the ground.

Su Mu withdrew his hand, and a slight dizziness washed over him.

I couldn't help but think, "Luckily, it was only the inner circle vehicles that were modified."

"If it were those vehicles outside, they would probably faint before the modifications are even finished."

Ling Hao stared at the metal shield that had formed, a look of shock flashing in his eyes. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Truly worthy of a mechanic!"

He then put aside his thoughts and quickly shouted to Cheng Jun and the other two who were still fighting in the distance, "Come back quickly."

"The fortress is complete."

He then directed his trusted men to go in first, while he stood guard at the entrance to the protective shield, sword in hand.

Those who had previously refused to let Ling Hao get off the bus were now filled with regret. They could see that Ling Hao had completely abandoned them, isolating them outside the protective barrier and leaving them to fend for themselves in the face of those strange beings.

In order to survive, those people hurriedly jumped off the car and squeezed towards the entrance of the protective shield.

But Ling Hao stood there alone with his sword, blocking the way, and shouted sternly, "You were all unwilling to get off the bus before, but now you're too late."

"Get out of my way, all of you."

"Anyone who dares to come near, I'll kill them!!"

"Captain Ling," someone knelt down and pleaded, "I didn't know you used the vehicle like this."

Please let me in.

"Now you can have my car, you can use it however you like."

"Please, please let us in." Seeing this, the others also knelt down and begged.

But Ling Hao remained indifferent and unmoved, coldly saying, "No matter what you say, I will not let you in."

"This is your choice. You only have one chance."

"As an extraordinary being, you should protect us." Seeing that he couldn't persuade Ling Hao, someone became furious and pointed at him, shouting, "Hurry up and let us in!"

"Get out!" Ling Hao's eyes turned cold, and he raised the sword in his hand and swung it sharply.

whoosh---

A flash of fire cleaved the man in two!

The sudden bloodshed startled the people, who dared not linger and hastily fled towards their respective vehicles.

At this moment, An Xin and the other two returned to the place. Cheng Jun's body had also returned to its previous size, but his injuries were too severe. His face was pale and his breath was weak.

"Come in quickly." Ling Hao first let the three of them inside. He glanced at the strange creatures that had already approached within a dozen meters, then slipped into the doorway.

Then, with a loud bang, the door slammed shut.

Suddenly, the entire protective shield was plunged into darkness.

Su Mu stood at the door, quickly locking it, then placed his hand on the metal protective shield, ready to unleash the power of the Mechanical Heart at any moment.

If the shield can't stop those strange attacks, he can only try to continue to transform it so that the shield also has a certain degree of offensive capability.

In this way, if those strange creatures are injured by this protective shield, blue flames will also burn.

But instead of the bizarre and ferocious attacks, he was met with a bloodthirsty massacre of the ordinary people outside. Screams of agony filled the air, a sound tinged with despair.

Ling Hao had the headlights of the RV and the two SUVs turned on, instantly making the entire area inside the protective shield very bright.

Besides them and Ling Hao's confidants, there were also dozens of ordinary people crammed in the middle of the car, half-hidden by the wind and sand.

They were still huddled there, but the fear in their expressions had lessened considerably.

Ling Hao ignored them and went to check on Cheng Jun first. Under An Xin's treatment, Cheng Jun's injuries were slowly healing.

He then approached Su Mu and asked in a deep voice, "How long do you think your protective shield can withstand those strange entities?"
