Chapter 33 Blockade Area Part 2(1/2)
"What is this? It sounds pretty good."
Jamie looked at Fredo holding something in front of him. It looked quite light. He had seen it before, but he didn't know what it was. He watched Fredo move the slender things with his fingers.
The thread made a wonderful sound, and Jamie became interested.
"This is guitar Jamie, come here and I'll teach you."
Jamie immediately came over and fiddled with Fredo a few times, making an unpleasant sound, and Fredo laughed.
"Take your time."
Jamie hummed and followed Fredo's example and tried several times. Fredo taught Jamie from the simplest melody. Gradually, half an hour later, Jamie could do it in a decent way. He was delighted.
said.
"It seems pretty simple."
Fredo hummed.
"But if you want to play better music, you need repeated contact."
"Can I play it every day?"
Fredo nodded. At this time, accompanied by the crisp sound of the guitar, Imogen came closer in the darkness, and Jamie stood up in surprise.
"Do you like listening to it Imogen?"
Imogen came over and her eyes were completely attracted by the guitar in Jamie's hand. Jamie hurriedly started playing. He looked at Imogen with joy. Fredo was also a little surprised. There was something in Imogen's eyes.
With a little sparkle, she was completely attracted by the sound of this guitar.
Jamie played it seriously. Although it was just a few simple notes, in Freddo's opinion, it was really good.
Fredo got up and came outside, while Koko was still looking for a safe route. Once discovered, someone would immediately come to block it. Once a fight started, they would be fully exposed, and the pursuers would be endless.
Fredo looked at the desolate town in front of him. This town would soon disappear. The wind and sand were eating away at the town little by little. Soon the whole town would disappear in the wind and sand.
Fredo has seen many such small human towns. Many of them were still visible when he passed by them before, but had disappeared into the wilderness when he passed by them again.
Therefore, kangaroo houses were made of steel from the beginning, so that they would not need to be rebuilt for a long time. Therefore, kangaroo buildings were built 200 years ago.
Almost all the ores in the major mines on this land have been emptied out, and kangaroo branches have been established in each city. In such a harsh environment, it has remained the same even after 200 years.
The guitar sound in the room was intermittent. Fredo took out a cigar and lit it, and sat down comfortably. Now he can only continue to wait. He has traveled nearly 20 kilometers today, which is good.
There is nothing wrong with traveling at such a slow pace. We are about to leave this land, and the battle has become meaningless.
Danger!
Suddenly, Koko reminded him. Seeing that there were still 37 seconds left, Fredo quickly stood up and put out his cigar, rushed into the room, quickly turned off all the light sources, and then took the guitar.
"What's wrong, Fredo?"
"Get down."
Jamie hugged Imogen and lay on the cold ground. Soon Fredo moved his ears. He clearly heard some sounds. There were lights flashing in the distance of the town, and there were many more. Fredo
Some worry about being discovered.
Time passed minute by minute, but the light did not go away, but got closer and closer, and there were a lot of lights. Jamie on the side seemed nervous. Fredo could see clearly in the darkness, and it seemed
It is a relatively large force.
Moreover, this force is getting closer and closer. Fredo is ready to fight at any time. If he moves now, he will definitely be discovered, and this force will definitely pursue him.
"What to do Freddo."
"It's okay Jamie, just wait quietly for them to leave."
The night sky in front of him has been lit up by a lot of light. From the looks of Fredo, they must be training. Soon Fredo saw some heavy-duty mechas. This kind of round and huge mechas have very powerful abilities.
Liquid metal armor can withstand firepower attacks.
There are also many fighter jets. It seems that the war will break out soon. The troops are gathering. More and more mechas and fighter planes are flying over. It seems that they have completed some part of the combat training, and then in
This collection.
Gradually, what Fredo was worried about happened. The nearest kangaroo soldiers were less than 100 meters away from them. These soldiers began to choose to station here. A kind of inflatable simple tent has been fully erected.
.
"Koko will do the math."
Soon Fredo got the calculated value. This is an all-round army with light and heavy weapons. The number of kangaroos exceeds 5,000, which is already a quite large army.
It is not unreasonable for them to choose to station here. This place is only 80 kilometers away from the 28th branch city of the Red Kangaroo Legion. If they attack from this direction, they can be caught off guard.
Jamie looked very nervous, Fredo comforted him.
"It's okay Jamie, we can wait slowly. If they are stationed, it will only take a few days at most."
Jamie swallowed. This was the first time he saw such a large kangaroo army. Fear came to his mind. Even with Fredo's comfort, the consequences would be disastrous if they were discovered.
After a while, Fredo stood up and quickly leaned against the wall. The kangaroo soldiers were very disciplined and rested after setting up a temporary tent. The light was also weaker, and only the floating robots on the periphery were patrolling.
, after Fredo got up, he took Jamie and retreated to the dilapidated small building at the back. As long as he continued to endure it, they probably wouldn't come.
Jamie looked at the army in front of him with an embarrassed expression. He could barely see his head at a glance. White inflatable tents were densely arranged.
"We are safe for the time being, but we cannot activate the mecha. Once activated, it will be discovered. Go and rest, Jamie, I will keep an eye on you."
Jamie hummed, tied Imogen and himself together, found a corner on the first floor and lay down.
Fredo was still thinking about how to stay away without leaving the mecha. Judging from the appearance of this army, it should be stationed for a long time. If they didn't leave within three to five days, they would have no choice but to continue waiting.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, Fredo couldn't stand it anymore. It was determined that there was basically no danger. The kangaroos seemed to have no interest in this human town that was about to disappear. Although some kangaroo soldiers got up to go to the toilet before,
It only stopped when it came to a place 60 meters away from the town.
10 am
Fredo opened his eyes and looked at Jamie who was lying on the ground looking into the distance. There were active kangaroo soldiers everywhere. Many of them were wandering around. Fredo stood up in a hurry. The nearest kangaroo soldier was far away from this one.
30 meters from town.
"How about Fredo, let's leave first, in case..."
"If we leave the mecha behind, we won't be able to return to the northwest port."
Jamie pulled Imogen aside. She always wanted to get up, but was pushed down by Jamie again and again.
"It looks like we'll be here for a few more days."
After Fredo finished speaking, Jamie nodded.
In the next three days, this troop did not leave, and no kangaroos came to the town. The most recent time, several kangaroo soldiers came more than ten meters away from the town, but they did not get any closer.
For three days, Jamie and the others could only eat cold food. This kind of food was only the size of a fingernail brought from the 99th branch city of the Red Kangaroo Legion. After eating one grain, they would not be too hungry for the whole day. This made Jamie
Mi was extremely surprised.
Fredo has been addicted to cigarettes these days, because lasers cannot be used to ignite the smoke, and the heat source can be easily detected by the detection robot, but no matter how uncomfortable he is, he can only continue to endure it.
Now Fredo finally understands why there are so many detection robots in this area. It turns out that it is because of this army. They may advance covertly, so they need to investigate areas one by one.
Such a covert advance is to prevent the 28th branch of the Red Kangaroo Legion from discovering it, and it can give them a huge blow the moment the war begins.
"Just bear with it for a few more days, Jamie."
Jamie nodded.
On the seventh day, Fredo's patience had reached its limit, but the troop still showed no intention of evacuating, and the kangaroos' range of activities became even wider.
Now Fredo and Jamie can only stay on the edge of the town because kangaroos have arrived in the town. Although the optical camouflage of the mecha is very real, it will be lifted if any kangaroo touches it.
This has happened several times in the past few days, and Fredo's heart is hanging every time.
Several kangaroos were walking around more than ten meters in front of him. Fredo had made all preparations. Once a battle started, he would immediately enter the mecha, activate it quickly and escape directly.
However, at around 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the kangaroo army began to pack up everything, and Fredo felt a little more at ease. The whole process of packing up was very fast. In less than an hour, the army was on the road, and it seemed to be the front.
The area had been fully monitored and there was nothing unusual before they started taking action.
At this rate, I'm afraid the war will begin in two months.
It was not until 8 o'clock in the evening that Fredo and Jamie finally had something hot to eat, and Fredo smoked many cigars in a row.
"After eating, we hit the road. There are many safe routes now, and we should be able to speed up."
To be continued...
