Chapter 19: Why Did The Sky Turn Dark?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Carter operated his mecha and dug a huge hole in the ground.
He planned to bury the mutated wild boar here first.
Then, he made a mark.
After the students completed their combat test, he would return to dig out the corpse of the mutated wild boar and transport it back to the Federation.
Just the corpse of this C-Grade mutated wild boar would allow him to obtain a conservative estimate of 10,000 points as a reward after transporting it back to the Federation.
However, the most important thing was not how many points he could get, but that he would also receive many contribution points.
It should be known that among the promotion requirements of the Mecha Warriors in the Federation, contribution points were very important.
At this moment, the students participating in the combat test looked enviously at Carter, who was burying the mutated wild boar.
If this C-Grade mutated wild boar had been killed by them.
It was equivalent to completing the combat test in advance.
After Carter used the soil to bury the mutated wild boar, he controlled his mecha to step on the soil.
This was mainly to prevent the blood of the mutated beast from attracting powerful mutated creatures.
He didn’t want any more accidents to happen.
Then, Carter glanced at the time.
The aircraft that had come to pick up Callie was twelve minutes away.
The Intermediate-Leveled Mechas were equipped with multiple wavelength radar systems.
“Activate radar search!”
Carter used the radar to locate the aircraft.
“Warning!”
“Unidentified flying objects have been discovered at a height of 2,127 meters. The number of objects cannot be calculated.”
Hm?
Just as Carter was wondering about this, the other students suddenly realized that their surroundings had become dark.
They seemed to realize something as they collectively looked up at the sky.
Hiss!
“Oh my god! What the hell is that?”
“It looks like some ferocious bird…”
“Those can’t be our aircrafts. That number is too terrifying.”
The dense black shadows in the sky continued to descend.
Ear-piercing cries overlapped with each other to form a powerful sound wave.
Carter had sharp eyes and relied on his rich battlefield experience.
Thus, he immediately recognized that the shadows in the sky were mutated vultures.
“Run!”
“Run towards the canyon!”
Carter’s face turned pale. This was a group of mutated vultures.
The odds would be against them if a mecha army made out of several thousand people encountered this group of mutated vultures, let alone this group of people.
The only thing they could do now was run!
Whoever ran into the canyon first might have a chance of survival.
On the other hand, standing here was equivalent to waiting for death.
Meanwhile, the Mecha Warriors operated their mechas and ran towards the canyon at full speed.
“Logistics team, there’s no need for ammunition and food. Run.”
This type of combat mechas could not carry people around. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m
The logistics students and genetics students did not have mechas. Thus, they could only rely on their own two legs.
“Callie, can you still operate your mecha?”
Carter asked Callie anxiously. After all, if she could not operate the mecha, it would be very troublesome.
However, the moment he finished speaking, Peter rushed to Callie’s side.
He picked up Callie and carried her over his shoulder.
“I’ll run with her!”
When the second team encountered the attack by the mutated wild boar, other than Callie, who was injured, everyone else was fine.
Including Carter, six people with mechas and five people without mechas ran towards the canyon at the same time.
Locke, who was piloting the white mecha, was the first to run towards the canyon.
The mechas had an advantage in speed.
Besides, they weren’t far from the canyon.
Very quickly, Locke piloted the white mecha to the entrance of the canyon.
This guy was pretty good at escaping.
Carter, who had been running behind Locke, realized that he could not catch up to Locke’s white mecha.
He furrowed his eyebrows.
Carter was piloting an Intermediate-Leveled Mecha. Although it was heavier than Locke’s Elementary-Leveled Mecha, it was not as agile as an Elementary-Leveled Mecha.
However, the driving mechanism of an Intermediate-Leveled Mecha was much better than that of an Elementary-Leveled Mecha.
He should be able to catch up to Locke’s Elementary-Leveled Mecha.
“This guy is indeed the eldest grandson of the Locke family. It’s impossible for an Elementary-Leveled Mecha to have such speed.”
Carter felt a deep sense of fear.
At this time, Peter carried Callie and was almost at the entrance of the canyon.
Behind him was a genetics student and two logistics students.
Meanwhile, the mutated vultures in the sky were catching up to them at a faster speed.
The two logistics students turned around and could clearly see the faces of the mutated vultures.
Bang bang bang!
After Carter ran to the entrance of the canyon, he immediately turned his mecha around and fired all the interference missiles he had on hand.
Three interference missiles arced through the air and exploded in front of the vultures.
As a result, countless grenades exploded in all directions.
This could only delay the pursuit of the vultures.
However, to Carter’s surprise…
After the vultures chasing them panicked, three larger mutated vultures appeared.
The three mutated vultures rushed out and continued flying towards the canyon.
Furthermore, there were two horns on each of their heads.
“These are B-Grade mutated vultures!”
Carter looked horrified.
Why would B-Grade Vultures appear here?
Didn’t the Federal army just clean up this area?
Soon, before Carter could react…
The three B-Grade mutated vultures had already caught up to the two logistics students.
The vultures pierced the heads of the logistics students with their sharp front beaks.
Instantly, the bodies of the two students who had lost their lives were left behind by the vulture.
This scene frightened the genetics student running behind Peter.
“Ah! Big Boss Peter… save me!”
