Chapter 10, Opening the Door to Home

The latter curled his lips, did not resist, and obediently raised his hand, performing a standard French salute

He picked up the pen still stained with blood, scribbled on the paper, and then tore it off, roughly stuffing it into the girl's hand

He let out a sigh, licked his lips, crouched down, and inserted the purple circuit board into the vacant slot on the main unit of the console

Hahaha

She did not know what this great villain wanted her to do, and the sudden death of the two "mentors" left her in shock and fear.

Jiang Xia looked around the room, his gaze falling on the belt of the corpse with a shattered skull on the floor, where there was something resembling a notebook lying in the pool of blood

This is the best chip we have in hand. Without this item, you cannot communicate with us, which is indeed a pity

He must leave here immediately

The actions were somewhat rough, seemingly reflecting his current mood

swish

@ % ! @ ! ''

Friend, this is beyond your control

Then ... ...

Time is limited

You have helped us, outsider, as previously agreed upon, we consider this as your employment. Now that the task is completed, it is time to provide you with your reward

Having lost the operator who issued commands, these outdated turret-type robots were slow to even execute the order to deploy defenses, and were caught in a pincer attack, resulting in their instant annihilation

Energy access

Using the orientation of the Rog as a reference point, the cover panel above the box slides in all directions, revealing the neatly arranged pointed missiles inside

The victory cigar in his hand was already lit, the rich smoke burning with intensity. He placed it at the corner of his mouth, took a deep puff, and then exhaled a series of smoke rings

Indeed, Murphy's Law is simply omnipresent

They took out the star array stone tablet and laid it flat on the ground

After a few seconds, in the center of the town, the disheveled Rog held a pulse rifle and rushed over with a group of cheering wasteland warriors, their joy was boundless and unrestrained

In the moment it burst from the ground, the black weapon box twisted its direction

In the town of wind and sand, time is of the essence for Jiangxia

He felt a tinge of anxiety and anticipation in his heart; although he had not been in this desert for long, he had lost all fondness for this damned world.

He followed Rog's instructions and found the main unit beneath the main control console, violently removing its casing to reveal a dense array of slots

They began to accelerate in the air, and similarly to an RPG, they deployed their tail fins

Jiang Xia seemed satisfied, and the tension and unease on his face had dissipated significantly. As he walked towards the outside of the house with the battery pack, Roger watched his silhouette, his eyes narrowing.

Rogge also hurried over, carrying a silver toolbox in one hand and holding something resembling a syringe in the other hand

The warriors of the Brotherhood were previously researchers

As his insight suggests, missiles of this type are mostly used for penetrating enemy fortifications unless they are equipped with special explosives

It is difficult to describe

He took out the purple circuit board and stopped at the third slot from top to bottom, but did not insert it immediately

Like arrows flying from the bowstring, in an instant, more than ten trails of smoke, illuminated by flames, surged up from the sandstorm

Those adult arm-thick pointed missiles first ascended to an altitude of nearly 50 meters, and then were launched towards the outside of the town in a barrage.

Watching the girl run away with a sob, Jiang Xia's worries eased somewhat

Jiang Xia removed his mask and shouted at the girl who was trembling and clutching her throat, gagging.

The preset program was activated by the circuit board, and the defense system of Oasis Town came online in the next moment

Indicate to her to leave quickly

How could that be? You are too nervous, relax a bit

Finally, with a strong push on her shoulder, he pointed outside the house

Once they see that he is still alive, the consequences will be dire. He quickly clutched the paper in his hand, took two or three steps, and ran out of the room, disappearing into the wind and sand outside, which was as dark and murky as fog.

My time is not as abundant as yours

But it is certainly not a good sign

Kaka

In the next moment, her face turned pale as she desperately reached out her hand to her mouth, pressing down on her tongue, trying to expel the bomb she had swallowed

That is the energy that Rog said would be used to activate the star array

It looks impressive, but indeed it is quite useless

It is the local dialect that he just learned from Roger

They had long been prepared for this "expedition," with several ammunition packs containing weapons, a few cans of purified water, and so on

This signifies the offline status of the three hunters outside the town

They set up the battery pack very quickly and efficiently, and then retrieved the iron box storing the star array from the rear of the tracked motorcycle

The sandstorm is subsiding, the wind and sand obscure the sky, and the situation of darkness has somewhat diminished, yet the howling wind still sweeps around the small town, causing the roofs of the low houses to rattle.

The battery pack is inside

In ten minutes, everything will be ready

Once the battery pack is activated, the immense energy will be transmitted through the cables to this slab, activating it

He also did not take any action

Then, by configuring a quadrilateral metal electrode and connecting it to a battery pack, the deformable electrode is finally embedded into the groove at the center of the star array

The subsequent developments of the situation became somewhat problematic

The numbness in the wound on my lower back has become increasingly severe, and there is even a faint tingling sensation, akin to the pain of being pricked with a needle in a state of insensitivity

Amidst the roaring sound of the wind and sand being scattered by the shockwaves of the flames, the projection screen in the room behind Jiang Xia also dimmed instantly

The meaning of this dialect, that girl understands very well

In the corner of the room, there is a battery pack that is interconnected in a complex manner using thick cables and a dozen high-energy square batteries.

Jia Gong

Thank you for your kindness

Do not worry, in our world, we have already become very proficient in the technology of implanting chips

He spoke while shouting something outside

Before them, on the shoulder of a deactivated Hunter robot, Jiang Xia sat cross-legged, smiling at them while holding an electromagnetic heavy sniper rifle

Good friend, are you really going to go back on your word

Both manipulators have been eliminated, perhaps that so-called immortality organization has received the news. Let us begin now and head over there to avoid any prolonged complications.

Beside them, the warriors of the Black Hand Society were continuously lifting and stacking large and small packages to one side, all of which were supplies prepared in advance to be taken away

With the crisp sound of impact, a moment later, a resonance echoed from beneath the ground in all directions of the oasis town

However, the light of the information transmitter of the brainwave chip above the ear flickered rapidly a few times

His eyes lit up, and disregarding the bloodstains on his hands, he picked it up with one swift motion

He ran his fingers through his hair and turned to look at the screen of the optical projector beside him. Through the perspective of the robot still engaged in battle outside the town, the surveillance footage revealed that the Black Hand had already launched a counterattack against those wasteland warriors.

A command from him was issued, reaching within arm's reach, and was also within the restarted defense system

The girl felt a hard, cold object being shoved into her mouth, and instinctively wanted to spit it out, but Jiang Xia held her chin and pushed forcefully.

Then, we will truly become brothers who confide in each other wholeheartedly

He raised the syringe in his hand and said to Jiang Xia

Rog calmly said

Jiang Xia does not understand the local dialect, and the girl cannot comprehend his words, making communication between the two a challenge

If this escalates, I am not confident in my ability to subdue this death merchant

It can activate the mysterious star array, opening the door that transcends worlds

Jiang Xia climbed down from the hunter's shoulder like a monkey, landing beside Roger. He gestured with his lips and said:

Jiang Xia laughed heartily, roughly pulling the girl up and bringing her to the control panel. He first pointed to his own temple, then made a gesture filled with malice that mimicked an explosion.

Very forcefully

The four semi-permanent defensive artillery emplacements embedded there were activated, and the launchers, resembling black iron boxes, were delivered from the shelter by the rails

It seems to share joy in this way, together with the wasteland warriors

She stood there trembling like a quail, wearing tattered goggles, afraid to move. Beneath the worn goggles, her eyes were filled with tears.

If you do not obey, you will face dire consequences

Since you are in such a hurry, let us activate it now, as you wish, shall we

The young man, dressed in a very sci-fi jumpsuit and smoking a cigar, exhaled a puff, removed the cigar from his mouth, and extinguished it on the control panel beside him

Secondary thruster activation

There seem to be traces of gunfire, and the entire room is in disarray

Rogge glanced back, and saw that Jiang Xia's left hand was already resting on the grip of the gun at his waist

Having just finished the battle, let us take a moment to rest, and when evening comes, we shall...

Regardless of whether it is the blue stone used by Master Bao in that world or the enormous battery pack before us, the underlying principle of their function is essentially the same

Jiang Xia stood with his hands on his hips, carrying two guns on his back, watching them busily at work.

This means that the bomb is controlled by his brainwave chip

However, I quite like my current state; I do not wish to add any more things to my mind. Since it is the best chip, you may keep it for yourselves.

That object was lodged in the esophagus and fell into the stomach along the throat.

Do not underestimate this chip, as it can provide significant assistance to warriors like you. Therefore, before you enter your world, let us take some time to install this for you

The girl was momentarily taken aback, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes behind the goggles. She then touched her stomach and turned to see on the screen beside her the warriors of the Black Hand charging into the town amidst the sandstorm

Outside the town, facing the chaotic firepower of three hunters, Rog, who was advancing forward, had a change in expression beneath his mask and goggles, with a flicker of joy surging in his eyes

She made her already messy hair even more disheveled, then pointed at the paper in her hand and once again made a malicious explosion gesture

It can be completed in no more than ten minutes

Instead, he turned around, strode over, and roughly tore away the headscarf that covered the mouth and nose of the frightened girl, forcefully stuffing something into her mouth

The girl understood this meaning

His gaze fell once again on the corpse in the pool of blood on the ground, while the warriors of the Black Hand were celebrating their victory outside the house, leaving only him and Jiang Xia inside.

He said to Roger

Rog did not respond immediately; he walked into the room where the smell of blood had already permeated. Two bodies dressed in the uniforms of the Eternal Life Society lay sprawled on the floor, blood pooling all around.

In front and behind, four pulse rifles were simultaneously raised, aimed at Jiangxia

Before Roger could finish speaking, he felt Jiang Xia's hand pressing down on his shoulder

It is the pleasing sight of flames rising.

As a member of the Immortal Society, even as the lowest-ranking research assistant, she was aware of the mission in the desert and understood the completely irreconcilable conflict between the Black Hand Society and the Immortal Society

Jiang Xia shrugged his shoulders, pointed to his head, and said

Rog still wore a smiling demeanor, but in the next moment, his tone took on a playful quality

He lunged forward, falling back into the sand, raising his left hand to place it on the information device above his ear, where the small lights flickered slightly

Su also responded with a sound, ran outside, and before long, several wasteland warriors entered, pushing a transport cart, using something akin to a jack to lift the heavy battery pack onto it

Whoosh whoosh whoosh

I see

Go to a safe place

The leader of the black hand organization stood about ten steps in front of Jiang Xia. Although he was still wearing goggles that obscured his eyes, a genuine smile adorned his rough face

Several data packets were sent out quietly

The winds stirred up during the launch even momentarily suspended a few strands of dust and sand. Under the watchful gaze of Jiangxia, these destructive fireworks descended from the sky, crashing into the sands outside the town

Indeed, it is a large object that cannot be moved by one or two people

You can withstand the radiation in the desert, but I cannot endure it

No! Right now!

She was also taken aback

A few seconds later, the young warrior Su ran in. Rog pointed to the battery pack in the corner and shouted a few words to him in the local dialect

The power of the explosion is not significant

The room is too small; to activate the star array, one must go to an open space outside

He let out a sigh of relief and reached out to pat the girl's head
