Chapter 203 Alice Pocket Watch

The heavy black mecha rolled over the road, like a giant tank, shaking the earth. As the two warring parties gradually entered a wartime state, the sound of gunfire became more and more frequent.

On the distant building, square honeycomb rockets were fired one after another, and then they drew various twisting trajectories in the air and shot at the heavy mechas on the street.

Faced with such an attack, these black steel mechas sank to reduce the area of ​​​​receiving bullets, and then let these rockets bombard the surface, exploding various flames.

Waiting for the flames and smoke to dissipate, except for some scratches on the surface after the bombing, these heavy black mechas are no different, showing amazing protection capabilities.

"Ordinary rockets can't blow up the black hammer mecha. Their bodies are made of the most advanced black steel in the other group. Several layers of secret art patterns are imprinted during casting. They have certain extraordinary characteristics and are extremely strong." The commander of the "Fire Iron Energy" looked at the distance, and then gave instructions to the people beside him.

"Move out the iron burning bombs in the underground warehouse No. 3. That batch of ammunition can deal with the mecha of 'Black Hammer Heavy Industry'."

"Yes, sir." Then the group began to deploy, and the front line was temporarily shrunk.

At night, although it was dark, the burning fires and searchlights in various places in the city made it not much different from daytime. The war continued. There were personnel from both sides blocking each intersection, and simple fortifications were arranged at the street entrances to block the possible attack routes of the other side.

At this time, on the top of a high-rise building in the west of the city, Tilan and his group were overlooking the burning city.

"According to the previous agreement, I will send you away, but I can't work for nothing. You have to pay me enough in advance." Red Hat explained to them.

"No problem." Jin Senke waved his hand. This was not the time to save money.

"Follow me." After receiving the money, Red Hat picked up the personal terminal, contacted a younger brother to confirm the situation, and then started to move with a group of people.

They first used the rooftop of a tall building to move, and then moved into the dark alleys on the ground. Although there were many patrols along the way, the red hat knew the pattern of their patrols in advance, so they were able to avoid them every time.

In this way, the group carefully shuttled and slowly left the city center and came to the outskirts of the city. No one lived here, it was very deserted, and both sides did not set up many checkpoints.

"This is it." Standing at an intersection, the red hat stopped.

The road in the distance led directly to the wilderness outside the city. Under the dim moonlight, it was very quiet and desolate. There was no light on the ground, only endless Gobi and ruins.

"Although we have left the war-torn city, the prospects are not very good." Jin Senke patted the dust on his body, and then sat on a stone step to rest.

"It is definitely not okay to rashly enter the wilderness, but this is a good place to rest. We can stay here for a few days." Xie Lian analyzed.

"This is the outskirts of the city. If the two sides chase us, we can leave at any time, or hide in this large area of ​​city ruins. If the situation in the city is stable, or there are other opportunities, we can enter the city again to look for opportunities."

"We can take the initiative to advance and retreat, instead of passively accepting the results inside."

"It's getting late today, let's find a house to stay and rest first." Phyllis suggested.

In the ruins outside the city, there are many dilapidated buildings, some of which are slightly intact. It is not difficult to find a temporary place to stay, but because there is no bedding, you may not sleep so well.

Everyone began to look for a suitable place, and soon chose an old-fashioned mansion, because the decoration here is retro, and there is an abandoned fireplace inside, which can be used.

The group gradually settled down, and then took out the dry food and food they brought with them, preparing to heat up the meal.

"Is Tilan not going to eat?" Dolores saw the black-haired girl standing by the window, looking at the sky reflected by the fire in the distance, and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Eat a little, but I'm going to go out and see what's going on in the city." The girl said to her companions in advance.

"Are you alone? Will that be dangerous?" Dolores didn't know the girl's ability, unlike Allen and others who had actually fought with her.

"It's okay, it will be much easier for me to act alone." Tilan shook her head to comfort her worried friend.

Allen came over and handed a piece of chocolate to the girl, and then said to Dolores: "Don't worry, our president is very strong, hehe."

In response, Dolores frowned slightly: "This is not a school, in case of an accident..."

She was a little dissatisfied with Allen's relaxed attitude. Tilan might have good academic performance in school, but looking so weak, if she faced the siege of the enemy, even if she had good talent, it would be difficult to deal with it before she fully grew up.

"Jin Senke." Dolores looked at another member of the team who had a greater influence. Although she didn't like this cousin usually, the two of them were relatives after all, so they could still say a few words at this time.

"Me?" Jin Senke touched his hair in confusion and then walked over.

After listening to Dolores's concerns, he touched his chin and said, "Indeed, it's a bit dangerous for the president to go alone. Why don't we send two more people to go together? It will be safer this way."

"Okay, I know you are a little worried. How about this? Let Valk and Phyllis come to be my assistants." The girl had to mediate in this way.

"Well, this should be safer." Dolores thought about it again, then squatted down slightly, lifted the skirt on her waist, and took out a small object hanging on the inside of the skirt.

It is a delicate pocket watch with a silver shell and delicate patterns on the bottom. When it is opened, there are white pointers inside, and vines and roses on the inside.

"This..." Jinsenke looked at the pocket watch that Dolores took out, his face was surprised, and then he looked closer and saw that the pattern on the bottom of the pocket watch was a rabbit wearing a hat.

"Uncle actually prepared this kind of thing for you, no wonder he was relieved to let you go out." He looked at it with a little envy.

"What is this?" Ruby looked at the exquisite pocket watch that looked like a work of art with curiosity.

"This is the special prop 'Alice's Pocket Watch' of the giant enterprise 'Alice's Pocket Watchmaker'. They are famous for this special prop and stand firm." Jinsenke introduced.

"This is an extraordinary prop that can stop time. Each piece is almost priced at a sky-high price. Most of them need to participate in auctions to obtain it. In order to ensure that this prop is not abused and maintain the price, this giant company will only sell a very small number of them on the market every year."

"If you encounter a sudden attack or attack, you can rely on this pocket watch to freeze the time around you, so that you have enough time to react and respond. It is also because of this feature that most of the top officials of the Federation will wear it, which also makes many assassinations ineffective."

"Many companies have tried to crack the secret of this prop, but no one has succeeded for hundreds of years. At present, only the time delay device of the 'Three Pointer Workshop' has a similar effect, but compared with 'Alice's pocket watch', it is also a world of difference."

"Tilane, take it first. It's safer for me to stay here. I don't need this for the time being." Putting the pocket watch in the girl's hand, Dolores hugged her again.

"This... Actually, it's not necessary." It can't be said that even if she doesn't have this kind of prop, she can achieve a similar effect, or even go further.

"Don't let me worry." Dolores spoke in the girl's ear, making the black-haired girl's ears slightly red.

"Okay, I'll give it back to you after it's over." The girl had to accept it for the time being. She thought about it and took out a pendant from her pocket (actually from the storage space). There was a blue gem on the silver chain.

"This is for Dolores. It's a small prop I made before. It also has a certain protective effect." In fact, the more important thing is the positioning function. If Dolores is really in danger, she can arrive in time.

"Then I'll accept it." In response, Dolores was happy and generous. She put the pendant on her neck and put it in her chest.

"Okay, it's getting late. You guys take a rest first. Valk, Phyllis and I will explore the situation." After the preparations were completed, Tilan said goodbye to everyone and left this resting point.

Watching the three people disappear in the night, Jin Senke looked at Dolores who was sitting by the fire while touching the pendant, and then looked at the other people who were preparing for dinner and rest. He walked to N.

"Teacher, aren't you worried about Tilan?" He felt that the teacher was too calm today.

"Tilan? I'm worried. I'm worried that she'll meet with an accident." N leaned against the windowsill, holding a beer can from nowhere.

"What about you?"

"But, there is a limit to worrying. I also have the responsibility to protect you. I can't just follow you." He shook his head and drank the beer he had chilled himself.

"You don't think that there is no power to protect Tilan, do you? Don't worry, this lovely girl is the darling of the academy, and those old men are worried that I will take care of her alone."

"Who else is there? How come I didn't know along the way?" Jin Senke was also interested at this time.

"How should I know? After all, I'm just a teacher, not a director of the academy, but as long as you use your brain a little and look at the sky, you will understand."

"The sky?" Jin Senke looked at the bright night sky outside the window, which was full of stars, giving people a very empty and beautiful feeling.

"Could it be a satellite?" If a dedicated satellite is used to track their journey, almost all the big and small things that happen along the way can be monitored by high-definition satellites.

But for this kind of thing, although he is also the heir of a large enterprise, Jin Senke does not think that he can be so important that the school can mobilize a satellite to pay attention to it. After all, it involves too many things, and it must be reported to the star region government.

"Forget it, I am too lazy to guess. Since the teacher is so confident, I will just assume that you have all kinds of back-up plans." Jin Senke was too lazy to think about it. He was a little sleepy at this time. After all, he was hiding from XZ today. It was not safe in the city before, and he had not rested well.

Then, he also came to the fire, got a hot can, and started to eat dinner.

"What a broad-minded child." N looked at Jin Senke who gave up guessing and thinking, and couldn't help but smile. This guy is also free and easy.

However, it is not a simple matter that Dolores can get the special props of Alice Pocket Watchmaker. It seems that the influence of Incense Workshop in the Central Star Region is not small. Although Incense Workshop is a good luxury brand, its influence should be limited to the surrounding of the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region. N's thoughts drifted to another side.

On the other side, Tilan took the two people to shuttle between high-rise buildings and finally stopped on a rooftop, which was probably located in the middle area with a good view.

"Let's stop here." Tilan suddenly stopped.

"You should know my strength. Facing the situation here, it is not dangerous." She turned around, her long black hair fluttering gently in the night wind. Her temperament was much different from usual, and more cold.

"President..." Phyllis wanted to persuade him a little more. Although he saw the frozen land of Tilan that night, he was still a little worried.

The girl who knew what he was thinking shook her head, and then looked at Valk, "You and Phyllis stay here. I will inform you if there is any situation on the way."

"Understood."

Valk accepted the order directly. His strength can be said to be ranked in the top three in the team. He also knows the strength of the girl in front of him better than others. Although they are all sequence 4, even five extraordinary people with the same strength as him can hardly beat the girl in front of him.

"I'll set off first." Nodding slightly, the girl jumped off the building, her clothes and hair were blown by the falling airflow, and then her figure flashed and disappeared into the night.

"Did she disappear just now?" Looking at the place where the girl disappeared, Phyllis was still a little surprised. At this time, he finally believed that the president of their club was not the kind of delicate, gentle and harmless girl that everyone imagined.

...

Moving quickly between high-rise buildings, avoiding the illumination of various lights, without the burden of companions, Tilan's speed became faster and faster. She let go of her perception, and all the scenes around her in the dark night were clearly reflected in her mind, allowing her to easily avoid the sight of people around her.

After traveling a long distance, she stopped in front of an old house, jumped directly from the second floor of the house, and then opened the drawer facing the window, and took out an envelope from it, which was sketched with the location and markings.

This was the place where the red hat told her to store the information before. The sketch marked the headquarters of "Fentie Energy" and the possible location of its top leader.

Go to Fentie first, and then go to Black Hammer after finishing the job. Try to finish the task before dawn, otherwise it will be ineffective to stop only one side. The girl silently recited the plan in her heart.

Soon, she disappeared in the night again, and in the distant buildings, crimson mechas shuttled between the streets and high-rise buildings. They kept moving, avoiding local shooting and bombing, and then relied on shoulder machine guns to shoot at the people who resisted.

In the center surrounded and protected by these crimson mechas, a building complex surrounded by high walls stood, with steam and steel roaring inside. Many workers and self-disciplined units shuttled through it, refining the originally rough materials and then casting them into war tools.

The red-hot iron fell from time to time, printing burning symbols on the guns and mechas that had just left the factory, and these newly produced weapons were quickly distributed to the members of the group to arm them.

Although night fell, the exchange of fire in the city did not stop, and both sides were still looking for each other's breakthrough.
