Chapter 84: Mantis catching cicadas

Pure military research institutions are often set up in inaccessible places for secrecy.

But if it is not so pure, such as some institutions that also have the research and development of civilian products.

Either to save the time and cost of transporting materials, or to attract outside investors to visit, they are often not too far from the city, or even directly choose to settle down in the most prosperous downtown area.

Sitting in the car, he observed the expressions of the soldiers and thought that in all likelihood they would not answer his question, so Shi Xiaolei simply did not take the initiative to ask questions about the destination of this trip.

But in the dark, he kept pinching his wrist, counting how many times his pulse beat, while estimating how far he had traveled.

It's probably been more than twenty minutes since I got in the car.

Outside the tightly sealed curtains, there was a faint light from a street lamp. Looking at the interval between the two flashes of the street light, I roughly estimated the speed of the car. Combined with the time estimated by 'pinch the pulse', Shi Xiaolei probably has some judgments.

The destination should not be in the city, at least, not on the island of Manhattan.

Where are you going?

Although the soldiers had just revealed their identities and said they were sent by the military, from Shi Xiaolei's standpoint, they would not fully accept this statement.

After all, he is a traveler, and he has had contact with S.H.I.E.L.D. So, another possibility came to his mind... Maybe it's the Hydra hidden in S.H.I.E.L.D.? With their energy, it is not difficult to find someone to dress up as a fake soldier, or to send a team of real soldiers who don't know the truth.

'Better not to be a Hydra. ’ Shi Xiaolei couldn’t help feeling irritated when he thought of Hydra.

If it was really a spontaneous act of the military, with S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark coming forward, it would not be difficult to solve it. But if you change it to Hydra... If you think about it, you can guess, there must be a lot of trouble in the back, and it's the kind of trouble that neither S.H.I.E.L.D. nor Stark can solve immediately. If he is also involved, his peaceful life will definitely be disturbed, and there may even be no return.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache. Under his negligence, Shi Xiaolei forgot to control his expression, showing a hint of impatience.

Noticing the change in Shi Xiaolei's expression, the squad leader sitting across from him tightened his rifle and silently warned Shi Xiaolei.

‘…. ' Looking up at the team leader, Shi Xiaolei suppressed his inner dissatisfaction and pretended to be the submissive look he had before.

Heart said, "When I figure out the situation, sooner or later, I'll want you to take a good look." But what Shi Xiaolei never expected was that just when he had this idea, a huge explosion suddenly came from outside.

There were four vehicles in total, and the one driving the road at the front was hit by a rocket that flew from nowhere.

The intense firelight was accompanied by a thunderous explosion. Under the action of its own inertia, the light jeep rolled and flew, and slammed into the lamppost on the side of the road.

The impact force of several tons, how can a mere street light be able to withstand it.

With a squeak, the metal lamp post broke, and a string of electric sparks smashed into the middle of the road. Together with the wreckage of the jeep that occupied a small half of the path, it blocked the way of several cars behind.

This is not the end, the car on the tail of the convoy in charge of the rear also ushered in the attack of two rockets.

Another two groups of flames shot up... Although it wasn't a jeep with the driver's seat exposed, and the car had a layer of armor on it, that thing's defense was still a bit poor, at most it could only defend against firearms. Under the attack of these two armor-piercing rockets, it was the same as paper, and the end was not much better than the jeep that opened the way.

The situation came too fast and too suddenly. In an instant, two cars and half of the team were lost.

Shocked and angry, the team leader immediately shouted, "Counterattack~! Call for support~!"

No one dared to stay in the car, all the soldiers jumped out of the car and used the car as a cover to fight back against the enemy who suddenly jumped out.

Shi Xiaolei was the only one who was locked in the car by the last soldier who got off.

"Hey, hey~! You can't do this, let me go too~!"

"Shut up~!" Not bothering to raise the bar with Shi Xiaolei, the team leader locked the door, raised the muzzle, and fired a string of bullets.

There was only a palm-wide observation port on the rear door. Shi Xiaolei couldn't see what was going on outside. Conversely, the soldiers who were busy receiving the enemy outside couldn't see what he was doing in the car.

In order to save his own life, Shi Xiaolei put on the equipment without hesitation - two cars have been blown up to slag, and the living example is right in front of you. Compared with the armor that comes with the car body, he still trusts the iron shell that he has exchanged for real gold and silver.

But what surprised him was that the gunfight lasted for five or six minutes, and the guys who jumped out of nowhere did not use rockets to attack the car they were in.

It felt a bit like a plot in a blockbuster. After thinking about it for a while, Shi Xiaolei understood. Obviously, the goal of those people was also himself.

Whether it is out of good intentions to rescue or have no intentions, there is only one reason for not using rockets to continue attacking, and that is to ensure that one can survive the shootout~www.NovelMTL.com~ In this case, then There is no need to rush.

Thinking that the group of soldiers outside was not the same as him, and there was no need to jump out to help them, Shi Xiaolei packed up his mood and sat in the car steadily, with his legs crossed, and closed his eyes as if listening to a symphony. , looked leisurely listening to the movement from outside the car.

The emperor is not in a hurry for the eunuch, and he is talking about this time.

Shi Xiaolei, who was in the car, was not in a hurry at all, but Stark, who was coming from Los Angeles, was so anxious that he got angry.

That's right, because of his previous instructions, Jarvis has been tracking the whereabouts of the convoy.

Although the location of the shootout is no longer in the city, and there are no traffic monitors around for Jarvis to borrow, but through the satellites in the sky, it captured the footage for the first time and reported it to Tony Stark .

"Damn~! Jarvis, focus the energy on the thrusters."

"Sir, prolonged overload propulsion will cause irreparable damage to the thrusters..."

"I can't handle that much now, do as I say~!" Stark gritted his teeth and gave the order.

"As you wish." Jarvis took the command: "Please be prepared to resist the impact, and accelerate the countdown to 5, 4, 3, 2, 1~."

As the countdown ended, the flames under Tony's feet suddenly thickened, and the speed of the steel armor suddenly increased a lot.

The abnormal noise caused by breaking the sound barrier, and the G force brought by the sudden acceleration, made Stark wrapped in the armor really uncomfortable.

However, in order to get to New York as soon as possible and rescue his friend who was in danger, he still managed to endure the discomfort with a determined and determined look on his face.
