Yanhuang Star has always attached great importance to the protection of the ecological environment, so there are large tracts of forests and wetlands on the planet.
Such a landscape is placed in the daytime, it will be the ultimate natural beauty.
But under the curtain of night, these beautiful forests and vast wetlands reveal their own hideous horror.
There are all kinds of animals in the jungle from time to time, which brings a lot of trouble to the mecha team, but fortunately, because of the tall mecha, these ferocious beasts just flee in panic and put away their own Minions.
Yang Mu and his party shuttled among them, not fast, but moving forward steadily.
On the road, everyone came across a lot of mechas that acted alone. They had to stop halfway to find a partner because they didn’t notice the power of the mechas. Fortunately, the rules of the test require that they move forward on a narrow planned path, but these mechas do not. Lost, but in such an environment, these people dare not rush out of the cockpit of the mecha.
Someone wanted to join the team of Yang Mu and others on the way, but Ji Jin refused.
I have to say that Ji Jin’s approach from the beginning was very correct. In the first two sections of the road, the red monitor lizard took everyone through a swamp. The design of this mecha and The tools on board allow it to easily pull the remaining four mechas forward on this soft ground.
After walking for 80 kilometers, the red monitor lizard mecha had only 10% of the power left, so he handed over the task to Yang Mu's great ape mecha, and the remaining power was used when he passed through the crater.
Replaced with Yang Mu’s mech, the Great Ape mech has an obvious advantage in the jungle area. The huge upper limb power of the mech allows Yang Mu to easily bring the remaining mecha to the bottom of the volcano. At this time, Yang Mu’s giant Ape Mecha still has 18% energy.
Yang Mu and Quinn led the entire team for a distance of 150 kilometers. After half of the journey, everyone's mission was overfulfilled. After passing the volcano smoothly, everyone could reach the end easily.
Yang Mu's remaining power at this time is enough for Yang Mu to arrange ropes on the crater, and then rely on other mechas to take him down.
The five people who temporarily formed the team are in a tacit understanding with each other. Although everyone is from all over the world, as elite students, everyone can think independently and can quickly think of a solution after encountering a problem.
Under the volcano, the Titan assaulter driven by Yuan Miao took the initiative to come to the forefront. The other mechas also unloaded the wood tied to each other at this time, and then used the steel cables on the Yang Mu mecha The mechas are connected together.
"Are you ready?" Yuan Miao said on the channel. The engines behind the Titan Assault were all turned on and debugging was already underway.
The tools on the Titan Assault are barbs on the lower limbs that can be pierced into the soil. At the same time, behind the mecha are two support frames that can be put down. At the same time, the Titan Assault has two icebreakers on both hands. It can be used here to assist in climbing.
It seems that the academy has already figured out how to use each mecha.
"Student Yuan Miao, the here is too big, I suggest you don't start too fast, and then remember to get close to some rocks when you walk around, so that if something goes wrong..."
"Wow ah ah ah ah!!!"
Queen pushed his glasses, ready to remind Yuan Miao's actions, and wanted to make some suggestions of his own, but Yuan Miao suddenly activated the mecha.
The Titan Mech is worthy of being one of the most powerful mechas in the world. The two huge engines behind the Titan Assault ejected huge blue flames, and the billowing heat immediately stirred up thick volcanic dust, making Yang Mu The group of people are all shrouded in it,
The mech's sudden advance also shocked Quinn.
"You are really a noisy person." Yuan Miao finally found the place to return his mouth and laughed fiercely at Quinn, then the Titan Assaulter used force and pulled a group of mechas to slowly climb up.
But on the way, even though he had some problems with Quinn, Yuan Miao accepted some of Quinn's suggestions, such as getting close to some exposed volcanic rocks while manipulating the mecha to climb.
Although most of these rock blocks are loose and porous basalt, they can still provide some cushion to Yang Mu and his party in an emergency.
……
After nearly two hours of climbing, the Titan Raiders finally took the whole team of mechas to the highest point of the volcano. At the last moment, in order to give the Titan Raiders some energy to pass through the crater, the team All the mechas turned on and helped together to reach the top of the volcano.
"Wow, this place is so big." Ji Mo drove the mecha and turned to look at the place that came up, and exclaimed excitedly on the channel.
Yang Mu is manipulating the mecha to prepare to check the situation, hoping to find some good places to arrange the steel cables to help the whole team cross the crater.
"Student Yang Mu, come and see this situation." At this moment, Ji Jin's calm voice sounded in the channel, greeted Yang Mu to go over.
Yang Mu walked over, and saw that the Skybird Mecha was standing next to a huge rock on the edge of the crater. Seeing Yang Mu coming over, he waved his fist towards the rock next to it.
His fist slammed on the black rock, and the whole fist was directly inserted, causing a lot of cracks on the black rock.
Ji Jin looked at the situation and sighed heavily. .
Before he came up, Ji Jin also conceived another plan. If the conditions of the crater were not particularly bad, especially if the distance was not far away, then he would use Skybird Mecha to remove everyone’s mecha. Take it and fly over.
But now, the crater with a width of about two hundred meters and an unknown depth made Ji Jin give up this idea.
Although he can still bring everyone's mechas over, but after that, the energy of his mechas will be greatly reduced, so the next gliding plan will be greatly disturbed, and may even be disrupted. Planning arrangements.
At this time, Ji Jin still feels confident in the past. He knew that he should pull one or two mechas together on the road just now, but now that he is out of his team, everyone else is still looking for teammates in the jungle. A mecha climbed up the crater like a group of people.
It seems that I can only rely on the five mechas of this team.
"It seems that we underestimated the situation here." Yang Mu solemnly picked up a stone from the ground, lightly grasped the mecha palm, and directly crushed the stone.
Ji Jin nodded: "Well, these rocks can't withstand the binding of steel cables at all. It seems that we have to work harder."
Ji Jin's helpless words came from the channel, and several other mechas who were still checking the surrounding situation suddenly looked over.
Yang Mu manipulated the mecha to the edge of the volcano and looked into the crater.
This volcano is an extinct volcano with a volcanic lake formed in the middle, and the water inside is full of green stagnant water. Volcanic substances participate in it, resulting in high acidity in the water, and it is impossible for mechas to wading through the water directly.
Besides, the situation under the lake is unknown...
"That can only be done in other ways." Yang Mu said in agreement.
"Ah? How do you get through this? Can't you go around?" Yuan Miao said next to him at this time, but Ji Jin shook his head.
"No way around. We have tried it before. These mechas should be monitored by high-precision satellites. Before, our mechas were warned when they deviated a little from the planned path."
"And the path to go around from both sides of the crater must be outside of its plan. They are forcing us to pass through the middle."
Yang Mu also nodded, and directly said his own method.
"Because there is a problem with the rock, then we can only use our mecha as a pile for binding steel cables."
"Mecha as a stake? How do you do it?" Quinn asked, obviously not thinking of what to do.
"Yang Mu meant that I flew over, pulled the rope, and sent you one by one."
Ji Jin quickly understood Yang Mu’s thoughts, or he might have thought of this plan, and immediately said on the channel.
"But in this case, then we should consider the Titan Raiders. It must pass by the third one, otherwise the traction of only one mecha on one side cannot withstand its gravitational pull." Quinn was at this time. Said, the problem again pointed to Yuan Miao's mecha.
Yuan Miao rarely refuted the opponent.
Ji Jin also nodded and said, "This is true, so the Jackdaw and I will go first, the Titan Raiders will go there, then Quinn, and finally..." Ji Jin looked up at the mecha driving Yang Mu.
"I am behind." Yang Mu said directly, his tone calm.
"Ah, how come the queen came here?" Ji Mo suddenly realized this problem at this time and asked.
The diameter of the crater is 200 meters, and the height from the vertical to the lake surface is estimated to be less than 50 meters. The steel cable cannot be fixed.
"Why don't I walk twice more." Ji Jin put forward his idea, but Yang Mu rejected it.
Two trips back and forth will consume more energy. Although it is a little risky, it can reduce energy consumption.
Yang Mu smiled slightly, pointed to the steel cables on his fuselage, and said: "The plan is very simple. After all of you have passed, each bundle of steel cables here will be two hundred and twenty meters long. Pull over four cables. A steel cable, one for each of you, and three of you each bring a winch from my place. When I'm going to go by, Yuan Miao, you drive your mecha down to the cliff, and the others The mechas stand and spread out a bit so that I can pass."
Yang Mu said his plan, but none of the four of them spoke, but was thinking carefully about the rationality of the plan.
"Yes, I agree." Quinn was the first to speak.
After a while, the remaining people couldn't think of a better way, so they could only agree.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Yang Mu began to greet everyone to start work. Yang Mu unloaded the winches on his feet and right hand, and loaded one for Ji Jin. Both Ji Mo and Quinn loaded one. All the winches on the winch One end of the steel cable was tied to his foot, and then Ji Jin took the lead in pulling a steel cable, tightened it, and flew over.
After successfully reaching the opposite side, the other mechas began to hang on the steel cables and slid over, first Ji Mo's Jackdaw, then Yuan Miao's Titan Raider, and then Quinn's Red Monitor.
Seeing that the four mechas had reached the opposite bank of the crater smoothly, Yang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and the people over there were also strengthening the winches on their bodies, preparing to pull Yang Mu's mechas over.
Yang Mu also moved the mecha, seeing that there was still 15% of the energy, he prepared a little, and waited for confirmation over there to start.
At this moment, a proud voice suddenly came from Yang Mu's public channel.
"Humph, it's really a narrow road for Yuanjia."
Yang Mu turned his head and looked over. It was a team of six mechas. It seemed that other teams had already used their own team's methods.
Yang Mu frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable, because he immediately recognized the voice from the public channel, and it was the arrogant guy named Liu Feng who had been driven away by Ji Jin.
