Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 1007 Desperate, Airborne Combat!

"Every drop unit, please get ready, the airdrop operation will start in 15 seconds!"

In order to preserve the strength of the Skadi as much as possible in the early stage of the battle, the Skadi did not approach the giant tree for airdrops, but sent dozens of transport planes to grazing towards the gap in the energy shield in a scattered assault formation. .

For some reason, Ark didn't make any counterattack this time—not only did it not intercept these fighter jets and transport planes, it didn't even fill in the energy gap.

"I always feel that something is wrong..." The hound stared at the screen intently, and murmured, "This is really a little too smooth... Could it be the other party's trap? Please enter the urn?"

"It's hard to say." Chi Hanfeng shook his head, "Perhaps the birth of this giant tree has cost the undead crew too much, and they have no time to take care of us..."

"It shouldn't be." The hound immediately questioned, "With the behavior of those bastards of the Undead Crew, it is absolutely impossible to leave such a big opening. They knew that Ke Lan and Yagunaktor were out of control. I also know that the survivors in the wilderness have formed an alliance of survivors to fight against them, so it is impossible not to take any precautions."

The hound took a deep breath, and then said, "Unless, they deliberately sold this flaw to us."

"Then assuming this is a trap, what are they planning?" Chi Hanfeng frowned, "Are they planning to lure all our living forces into the ark and wipe them out in one fell swoop?"

"It's hard to say," said the Hound with a look of embarrassment on his face, "but time waits for no one, and we have no chance to test it out. It is estimated that the undead crew members are sure of this, so they dare to do this... This is no longer a conspiracy, it is just a conspiracy." seek."

"Yes, we have no choice." Ivan continued, "If we choose to put all our eggs in one basket, we will easily fall into their trap; if we hesitate, we will wait until the roots of the giant tree go deep into the land of Planet Alpha. Then we will never have a chance to come back.”

"Then it's better to be reckless to the end!" Layton's loud voice rang out, "Don't worry about the trap, just put the annihilation bomb in your fucking mouth, there is an old Chinese saying, yes, it is called Break through ten meetings with one force!"

"It's ten times with one force." The hound gave Layton a blank look, and corrected.

"It's almost the same anyway, as long as you understand what I mean." Layton waved his hand, "I don't believe it, they can still resist the attack of the annihilation bomb... If they can really prevent it, then in this battle we There is no chance of winning from the beginning, and it is not wrong to lose!"

"Okay, will you die if you don't say a few words..." The hound raised his leg and kicked Layton's ass, "Ke Lan and the others have already set off. If the annihilation bomb can't destroy the giant tree, then We're left with the only option."

The Hound didn't say what the only option was, but everyone present knew it.

"Run into it with Yagunaktor, and die with the enemy."

……

There are a total of 64 transport planes in the first batch. Most of the weapons and armor have been removed from these transport planes in order to maximize the speed and load capacity... In the face of the defensive measures of the Ark, the firepower and defense power are simply not enough What's the point? Even battleships can't support them. Even if the armor strength of these transport planes is increased to the upper limit, they will all end up falling with one blow.

The only thing that matters is speed.

The 64 transport planes quickly flew over the gap in the energy shield, and the marines and tactical mechas jumped out of the cabin like dumplings, and fell downward at the speed of free fall.

These airborne troops are not equipped with parachutes, which will slow down the speed of descent, and it is easy for the airborne troops to become living targets in mid-air.Therefore, the soldiers only wear a batwing suit that can control the flying angle in the air. As for the impact force when they land, they rely entirely on the cushioning airbags and elastic mechanical exoskeleton to resolve it.

The soldiers selected for the airborne troops were all strengthened people, and some of them had undergone temporary strengthened surgery. They had just come off the operating table a few hours ago, and even the sutures on the incisions hadn't healed yet.

Enhanced surgery does not guarantee that they can survive the airborne process, and may even cause the wound to burst under the huge impact or a series of other postoperative sequelae... But in order to increase the probability of success in combat operations, these The soldiers still accepted the operation without hesitation.

Everyone is very clear that if they lose this battle, then human civilization is likely to come to an end.

As for Ke Lan and the others, it is not only the human civilization on the Ark that has come to an end, but also the "inheritance" of human civilization from an unknown dimension that continues to Alpha civilization, and then to Ark civilization.

This torch in the dark night is like a baton, which was passed on by countless human civilizations, and now it has passed into their hands. In the dark night, a heavy rain suddenly fell, and the icy rain slapped everything on the ground, and the flame kept flickering , as if it would go out at any moment.

Ke Lan doesn't know how many times these different human civilizations have encountered such "storms" in the process of inheritance... But since the torch can be passed to their hands, it means that those civilizations are hard-pressed. He survived the baptism of the torrential rain.

Even if the civilization was destroyed, even if the individual died, they did not let this torch symbolizing hope go out.

Then Ke Lan couldn't let the torch go out in his own hands!
"Altitude 300! 270! Enemies are found below! Prepare to attack!" The roar mixed with the whistling wind echoed in the earphones of every airborne soldier. Looking down, they could clearly see that on the platform below, there were many A black figure is waiting.

Just above the core area of ​​the Ark is a huge platform. Many important buildings are built on this platform, such as the main signal tower of the Ark, the central antenna of the radar system, the array anti-aircraft turret, etc. When the Ark takes off, these buildings, They can all be retracted into the ark, just like the "Third New Tokyo City" that can sink into the ground in an anime called "Evangelion".

But these buildings did not shrink into the ground at this time, but turned into ruins one after another—these ruins were not the masterpieces of the previous round of bombers, but were created by the giant trees that were right in front of us.

When the giant tree "broke out" from the core area, the entire platform in the core area was squeezed, the ground plates were torn and deformed, and the buildings fell like dominoes. In just a few seconds, it was razed to the ground.

The men in black observed by the airborne troops were standing among the ruins, holding their guns, and continuously shooting into the air.It's just that the falling speed of the airborne tribe is very fast, and it is difficult for ordinary firearms to aim at them. Only a few unlucky guys were hit by stray bullets, and most of the other airborne troops passed through the rain of bullets and fell on the high platform .

Ke Lan and Ze Luo secretly mixed among the first batch of airborne troops.

Ke Lan told General Maginot and Major General Alexander that the battle plan was "first, the Skadi and the troops of the Survivor Alliance tear open the gap in the energy shield, and clean up the enemies around the gap, and then Aya Guna Ketor's 'Star Destroyer' opened a hole leading directly to the root system of the giant tree, and finally Zelo carried the annihilation bomb into the root area to blast."

But this is just a plan on the surface.Ke Lan is very clear that in the Survivor Alliance, there must be spies that the undead crew members will place. After this battle plan is released, the spies will definitely try their best to send the news back to the ark... Ke Lan even the command system of the Survivor Alliance Neither can be fully trusted.Once there is an insider among the staff, the Undead Crew will have already grasped all the information in advance without even waiting for the battle plan to be issued to the hands of the front-line combat units.

Only by taking it by surprise can it be caught off guard.

Ke Lan directly chooses to sneak into the first batch of airborne troops... If this is a trap, then simply use the trick, and take advantage of the undead crew members not reacting, directly penetrate their defenses and go straight to the heart.

The traps used to deal with ordinary soldiers cannot stop Ke Lan and Ze Luo.What Ke Lan wants to fight is this information gap.

"Immediately land on the ground, try to camouflage as much as possible when using the space ability to buffer, don't be too obvious." Ke Lan said to Ze Luo, who was hugging Ke Lan's chest like a koala at this time—look It seems that the two are tied together with seat belts, but in fact they are "sitting" in a "space content" that cannot be detected by the naked eye.

This space container can not only block the bullets shot at them, but also adjust the positions of the two at any time to ensure that they land where they want to land.

"No, it's better not to take risks." In a flash, Ke Lan changed his mind again, "Put away your abilities, I can't guarantee that there will be people who can sense space fluctuations in the undead crew, adjust the speed, We landed in free fall."

"Okay." Ze Luo said in Ke Lan's ear.

The space container surrounding the two suddenly disappeared, and the high-speed airflow mixed with gunpowder smoke and burning smell instantly poured into the gap between Ke Lan's neck, and there was loud whistling in his ears... Seeing that the two were about to collide hard On the high platform, Ke Lan pulled the rope around his waist hard, and several huge air bags suddenly inflated, enveloping the two of them.

This kind of cushioning airbag was inspired by early space probes, but compared to the prototype product that would bounce off the ground like a rubber ball, this kind of cushioning airbag has an air pressure adjustment valve inside and a paint on the outside. A layer of viscous agent, when impacted, the squeezed side will quickly release the air pressure through the adjustment valve, offsetting the impact force and rebound force as much as possible.

The airbag that wrapped the two of them bounced only twice, and stopped after rolling for less than 20 meters. Ke Lan immediately released the gas in the airbag, and dragged Ze Luo out of it.

"Time Stop" is on——

Everything around turned into a black and white freeze-frame picture. Taking this opportunity, Ke Lan observed the situation on the battlefield to his heart's content.

Those black-clothed men who blocked the airborne troops were obviously corrupted transformed humans...or in other words, they were "special" clones specially created for combat.Control chips are implanted in their brains, and they will never betray the orders of the Undead Crew Association.The body mutation brought about by complex biochemical modification surgery and erosion endowed them with powerful physical strength and terrifying healing ability.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness, these men in black are far above the airborne troops.With the guns in the hands of the airborne troops, it is difficult to kill them completely. Even if they are swept into a pulp with a heavy machine gun, the pulp will struggle to gather together, and once again condense into a human form...or some other alien monster , into battle again.

The only thing that can kill these eroded men in black are the flamethrowers equipped by a few soldiers and tactical mechas. Only those men in black who were burned to charcoal by the flamethrowers showed no signs of resurrection.

But on this point, these men in black seem to be easier to deal with than the containers of the Seed of Corrosion.

Some sharp-eyed soldiers have already discovered this. After "killing" a man in black, they will throw the other's body into the fire before the other party is resurrected-the stench of burnt protein is in the air. The battlefield was permeated, even covering up the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood for a time.

After the time stop was released, Ke Lan pulled out the large-caliber pistol at his waist at a speed so fast that it could almost produce an afterimage, forced the muzzle into the mouth of a man in black who rushed forward, and pulled the trigger.

The bullet directly took away the brains of the opponent's back half, and the splashed blood and brains were directly splashed on Ke Lan's mask and clothes - Ze Luo originally wanted to use the space barrier to help Ke Lan block these filth, but Ke Lan Lan once again signaled her not to use space power.

"People from the Undead Crew Club are definitely staring at this battlefield. Before we find a way to get to the roots of the giant tree, we must disguise ourselves as ordinary soldiers as much as possible." Ke Lan said in a volume that only Ze Luo could hear.

"Ordinary soldiers don't have the reaction speed you had just now." Zelo said blankly.

"Uh... It's normal to have some high-level enhanced people in the elite army, as long as they don't look too eye-catching." Ke Lan said.

Just when the two were back to back and kept shooting at the men in black around them, a "Tiger Hunter" tactical mech painted in a very inconspicuous iron gray tore through the heavy encirclement, and came to the two men. near.

It was not only Ke Lan and Ze Luo who got into the first batch of airborne troops, but also Valentina who was driving this "Tiger Hunter"— Chi Hanfeng refused to let her come, but Valentina Na insisted on participating in the assault, but Chi Hanfeng couldn't resist her at all, so he had no choice but to agree.

Although the outer shell of this tactical mecha is "Tiger Hunter", the internal structure is actually all customized high-end accessories. It is a "big toy" assembled by Layton himself in his free time.Because the Blasphemer's goal was too obvious, this machine was temporarily lent to Valentina for use.

"We are going to move due west." Ke Lan shouted towards "Tiger Hunter". "There should be a vertical passage for helicopters, which can directly land on the apron on the next floor!"
