Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 40: I can fight back
Su Lun was also a little surprised that Kai would bring him with him at the most critical moment.
At that distance, Kai's muscle burst was enough for him to retreat and jump into the cave calmly. But when he brought someone with him, he was severely injured by the aftermath of the explosion.
But obviously, this is also the most correct choice.
Not to mention that Kai is a sweet-tempered person. As a captain, he will not ignore the life and death of his subordinates and escape alone. Otherwise, he should have done this the moment the enemy appeared before, knowing that he was outmatched.
The situation is even worse now. If Su Lun were to die, it would be impossible for him to escape the encirclement and suppression by the Steam Party guys.
Even if you escape into the cave, it will only delay the time of death.
.......
The two fell into the cave and rolled to the ground.
Su Lun immediately smelled the aroma of burnt meat and burning hair.
His night vision was not weak, and he could see at a glance that Kai had a large burn on his back, and there seemed to be bleeding wounds. This guy had probably been shot in a firefight before.
Kayi stood up with a heavy breath, and the leather armor melted and stuck to his skin, making his teeth chatter in pain.
But he didn't groan. He took out a potion and stuck it on his leg, temporarily delaying the injury from getting worse. At the same time, he asked: "Su Lun, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Su Lun himself was okay, because with Kai standing in front of him, the explosion only burned part of his thigh, and the iron sand on his back did not hit deeply.
This injury does not affect movement.
Kayi glanced at the [Three-Headed Ghost] in Su Lun's hand, with a slightly surprised look on his face. He seemed to recognize this famous gun, but he didn't say much.
Many people who join gangs have their own secrets.
He looked at the dark surroundings and said seriously: "We can't stay here for long. Those guys from the Steam Party will definitely chase me down if they know I'm injured."
"Yeah."
Su Lun also nodded. If he were a member of the Steam Party, he would definitely come down and eradicate it.
If Kai doesn't die, this operation will be completely meaningless.
The two of them didn’t say much, observing the environment as they walked.
Su Lun looked at it and realized that this was probably the subway station, the platform, the stairs, the waiting room, and even the traces left by the decay of the track a thousand years ago.
Kay's night vision goggles didn't allow him to see very clearly, but after coming out of the slum, he knew very well how to judge the direction of escape underground. He listened to the sound of water and whispered: "There is sound of water to the west. The passage there should not be blocked. I will help you contain it in a while, and you can escape first. Their target is me, let's find a way Hold on for a while longer. There is a lot of commotion here. The gang has got the news and will definitely send people to support. Maybe you can still survive..."
Su Lun raised his brows slightly when he heard this suggestion.
There's nothing wrong with Kai's plan.
When two people are together, they will indeed drag each other down.
Kai's own explosive speed is very strong, and it is easier for him to survive alone. Moreover, if they leave separately, the enemy's focus will definitely be on chasing him, and Su Lun's probability of survival will be very high.
But Su Lun's face became serious as he looked at the dark figures that were about to move in the depths of the darkness.
In this cave, there are not only them, but also some "aboriginal people".
Judging from the [mutated aberration] that was killed before, there may be more unknown monsters underground.
If you really go deep, you may not necessarily have a higher chance of survival than facing those guys from the Steam Party.
Thinking of this, Su Lun shook his head and said, "I think it's best that we don't go too deep."
Kayi seemed to have thought of the existence of monsters, and frowned: "But now, we don't seem to have a better choice..."
"No, I think we can squat them here."
Su Lun looked at the spatial layout of the ancient subway station. The platforms, passages, tracks... were all well preserved.
In the battle just now, these ancient buildings withstood most of the bullets, which gave Su Lun an idea.
This is the best cover.
For gunners, this complex environment is also the most advantageous battlefield.
"Are you trying to ambush them here?"
Kayi was obviously surprised when he heard Su Lun's crazy suggestion.
The number of enemies is ten times that of myself. If you are still saying this at this moment, if you are not a madman, then you have extraordinary abilities.
At least for a melee professional like him, there is absolutely no chance of winning!
Su Lun's suggestion seems to be in line with Kai's appetite. It is much faster to fight back than to be chased away by others.
His eyes lit up and he asked again: "Are you sure?"
He didn't realize that the usually quiet gangster had such a crazy side.
Thinking again about the scene where he killed more than a dozen Steam Party gang members in one round, Kai felt more and more that this newcomer who had just joined the gang was not simple.
"The environment here is very suitable for sniping. Except for those two professionals, there is nothing to fear."
When Su Lun said this, his tone was very calm.
But Kai heard the confidence and calmness in these words, and he realized that this was a "gun expert" with perfect shots!
Su Lun further analyzed: "But once I fire, my position will be exposed. The 'iron gorilla' will definitely kill me as soon as possible. When the time comes, I will need you, captain, to help me delay. In my hands There are still two alchemical bullets. If you are lucky, you may be able to kill him... We can fight back!"
"Counterattack?"
Not just sniping, but also counter-attack?
When Kai heard this, his expression instantly cheered up.
With a slight vision, he immediately understood the key to this tactic.
If you want to fight back, the two of them cannot be separated, otherwise they will only be defeated one by one.
But professionals are not that easy to kill, even if you have a gun in your hand. After advanced, the nerve reaction speed and alertness of professionals are extremely high. Even a firearms expert would have a hard time killing him, not to mention that there is an invulnerable "Iron Gorilla" Sith among the enemies.
However, looking at the expressionless Su Lun, Kai also knew that this calmness must be matched by confidence: this guy must also have a " trump card "!
"Okay!"
Kayi chose to believe Su Lun, nodded without any hesitation, and said: "Although the Sith profession has some restraints on me, if he wants to defeat me, it will not be possible in a short time."
Su Lun: "Yes. Captain, please be sure to hold him back for at least ten breaths when the time comes."
Kai: "As long as ten breaths? That's absolutely no problem."
Su Lun felt that communicating with smart people would save time. He added: "It's not just the Steam Party, but also monsters. I just heard some unusual noises over the water source. It might be the monster's lair... ”
He said, pointing to the dark place again.
This is also the most important reason why Su Lun chose to take the risk of staying here instead of escaping.
He explained: "Most of the aberrant monsters here have 'auditory perception'. Once fired, they may attract monsters. But monsters are not only our enemies, the guys from the Steam Party also have to face them. We can Use monsters to contain them, but our risks are also not small..."
Hearing this, Kai seemed to have figured something out, and slapped his thigh: "Yes, why didn't I expect that there were aberrations!"
Now the enemy has a numerical advantage, but once those aberrant monsters in the darkness get involved, it will be a three-party melee.
The Steam Party's numerical advantage collapsed in an instant. On the contrary, the duo of Su Lun and Kai had fewer people and smaller targets, making it easier to maneuver.
.......
Time was tight, and reality did not give the two of them much time to discuss the details.
Su Lun casually used the steel wire used to control the puppet to place a "booby trap" on the ground he passed.
Then the two of them chose a passageway that could be entered and retreated, and waited for the enemy.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, a group of people rushed into the cave.
The gas lamp illuminated several figures, but Su Lun was not in a hurry to take action. His eyes were looking at the two professionals Kuntu and Sis, hiding in the darkness where the light could not reach them.
Those guys were also very smart. They knew that Su Lun had amazing marksmanship and obviously expected that they might be ambushed, so they let the ordinary gang members go ahead.
As soon as Su Lun fires and exposes his position, the initiative will immediately change.
Kun Tu is also an old man who has experienced battles for a long time. He looked at the movement traces left by unknown monsters on the ground and guessed that there might be danger here. He reminded: "Everyone, be careful. I always feel that this cave is There's something wrong there."
