Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 635
"The firing position of the laser has been locked, sir, are we going to fight back?" a soldier shouted.

The commander of the mobile unit subconsciously looked at Ke Lan—it was not just the Tenth Armored Division that received the news. Under the instruction of the Undead Crew Club, Ke Lan seemed to have become the commander-in-chief in this battle. The person with the highest command authority other than Lieutenant General Trenz Linde, any front-line combat force that encounters Ke Lan must obey his orders.

The undead crew gave him great autonomy, and he even had the right to choose whether to execute the orders issued by Lieutenant General Linde according to the real-time changes on the battlefield.

"No need, the two lasers are launched from different places. Given the roof area of ​​these buildings, even a miniaturized cluster laser cannon can only be placed in one place. This weapon is a one-time weapon. , After using it, it will no longer be threatening." Ke Lan said, with the ability to stop time, he captured the firing position of the laser earlier than these soldiers-compared with the silent warhead, the dazzling cluster type The path of the laser is too obvious, and it is easier to reveal the position of the shooter than tracer bullets and muzzle flashes.

These two laser cannons, like the previous sniper rifles, were fired by remote control devices in all likelihood.Even if the roofs of those two buildings were plowed up with heavy firepower, it would be impossible to injure the controller—because the opponent was not there at all.

"I will let Ze Luo be in charge of early warning. Everyone is ready to open the shield at any time." Ke Lan said, "We will continue to maintain this defensive formation and advance. If the opponent's means are limited to this, they will not be able to deal with us. pose too much of a threat."

Although this small cluster laser cannon can penetrate the cockpit of the "thruster", it is because of the loopholes in the design of the "thruster"-as a light-weight high-speed mech for frontal charge, the armor that comes with the thruster is basically piled up. On the front of the machine body, the armor on the side and rear is relatively weak, and the propeller that was killed just now was sniped when it turned around to go around behind the shield. It was only after being exposed to the enemy's gunpoint that he was fatally hit by the opponent.

It is true that there is a certain element of luck in it, but the enemy's ability to control the timing is also extremely terrifying-you know, this thing needs to be charged for a long time before shooting.

"At least for us, this is good news." Ke Lan suddenly said some unclear words, which made the commander of the mobile unit stunned for nearly half a second.

"Okay, good news?"

"Based on the attacks we have encountered so far, these weapons are all made by humans... Well, although the core component of that laser cannon is a creation of the Alpha civilization, at least the weapons themselves use human technology." Ke Lan said , "Except for those strange interferences, the defense facilities of the ruins themselves did not launch an attack on us."

"Uh...it seems to be like this." The commander glanced at the battle situation in the sky. Although the fleet outside could not be seen from this angle, the scene of various missiles, rockets and artillery shells being destroyed by volleys could still be seen. What I saw - if the firepower used for air defense fell on the head of this airborne team, even if they opened all the shields, they would not be able to escape the end of the group.

"There are restrictions on these things." 33 who followed behind said, "They cannot be used to attack ground units entering the core control area, otherwise, people from heretic sects would not use those weapons to attack us."

"In other words, the six batches of airborne troops that were missing in front... If, I mean, if they have been killed, then there is a high probability that they were killed by people from heretic sects, not the traps inside the ruins "Ke Lan analyzed, "These troops parachuted into the core control area are the best of the best, well-trained, well-equipped, and supplies such as active ammunition and advanced medicine are even more manageable... If you want to rely on If the heretic sect's own power eats up such a few troops, one can imagine how strong the opponent's fighting power is."

"Ordinary erosion seeds can only be reduced to cannon fodder in such a battle, and mutants can be regarded as the main combat power." Ke Lan said, "As for the decisive combat power, there are only SP mutants and black bishops. .”

"The bishop in black...fuck it, to be honest, I really don't want to fight that monster again." Layton couldn't help complaining in the team channel.

"Don't worry, keep going forward, we will definitely meet a black-clothed bishop... If the real body of the prophet is in that tower, there will definitely be many black-clothed bishops around him, maybe there will be a dozen It popped up by the dozen." Ke Lan said.

"... A dozen black-clothed bishops? Then we are just here to deliver food?" Although Layton was not involved in the hijacking incident, he still watched the video of the battle between the Ark Fleet and the black mummy... Then A thing that can't be killed by a nuclear bomb or burned by a plasma cannon, the only adjectives he can think of are "pervert" and "monster".

"Don't be so pessimistic. The strength of a black-clothed bishop is also divided into strengths and weaknesses. Like the black-clothed bishop I met in the East Ninth District, after the sacrifice, only a black skeleton was summoned, which was directly given by Ms. Victoria. I dismantled it with bare hands, I believe you can do it too." Ke Lan showed a relaxed expression as much as possible, and gave a thumbs up to Augustus's monitor.

"But, I hope..."

Under the protection of the tight shield array, Ke Lan and the others pushed forward about 200 meters. During this process, they were attacked by a total of four sniper attacks and three laser cannon attacks, but they were all blocked by energy shields or physical shields. It was blocked and no damage was done.

It seemed that they realized that long-distance sniping could no longer pose a threat to them. After the last sniping was blocked by the heavy shield of "Shield Mountain", members of the heretic sect finally appeared in Ke Lan's vision.

This is also the first time they have encountered the enemy head-on since they entered the core control area.

"These guys... Are they reformed people among the exiles?" Looking at those guys with grotesque shapes and distorted limbs, who could barely be called human beings, Layton couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air.

Although the modified people among the exiles and the modified people in the ark are literally the same, they are actually two completely different concepts-in the wilderness, the exiles do not have the same medical and surgical conditions as the ark. The so-called body Transformation is to sew the limbs of humans and indigenous creatures together in an extremely rough way, or directly replace human organs with the internal organs of indigenous creatures...

Those with better conditions may still be able to get some antibiotics and hormones, but the vast majority of those undergoing transformation can only rely on their own bodies to fight against rejection and infection...

Undoubtedly, the mortality rate of this "transformation operation" is extremely high. Even if a few lucky ones survive the high-risk period after the operation, their remaining lifespan will be greatly shortened—the limbs and organs of indigenous creatures are indeed It is true that it can bring powerful power to human beings, but the part of the body that originally belonged to human beings can hardly bear this power.

Unless the person undergoing the remodeling operation is an enhanced person... But even if it is an enhanced person, the chance of getting off the operating table alive is more than [-]%.

"No, they are not ordinary reformed people." The commander of the mobile unit shook his head heavily, "I'm afraid we have encountered the heretical sect's 'Loyal Heir Guard'."

"Loyal Heir Guard? What is that, why have I never heard of it?" Layton was very puzzled.

"I've heard of the name of this unit, but I've only heard of it." 33 glanced at the "reformers" who were slowly approaching 200 meters away, "Ke Lan, with your authority , you should know more than me."

Ke Lan nodded silently, and said: "I have seen information about this unit in the confidential files of the Security Bureau... You all know that the failure rate of the exile's 'reform surgery' that is no different from torture is extremely high. High, not one out of ten people who undergo surgery will survive—but there is one exception.”

"What kind? When transforming a person is strengthening a person? But why should he undergo that perverted operation when he is already a strengthened person?" Layton asked.

"No, it's not a strengthening person, but a container for the seed of erosion." Ke Lan said, "The seed of erosion parasitic in the human body will endow the host with extremely strong strength and recovery ability before entering the catastrophe period. With these 'containers' The success rate is almost [-]% when it is used as the transformation material, and after the limbs of the indigenous creatures are joined with the human body, the cells of the Seed of Corruption will also invade these limbs and further strengthen these limbs."

"..." After listening to Ke Lan's words, Ivan couldn't help but glanced at his mechanical arm, and shook his head slightly, as if throwing some unrealistic thoughts out of his mind.

"Although the strength of this kind of modified human depends largely on the strength of another part of the material - the limbs of indigenous creatures, it can be mass-produced stably. According to the estimates of the Security Bureau, the number of such modified containers is about 1000. people to about 500 people, and this number is still growing.”

The reformers of the heretic sect in the distance stopped when they were 100 meters away from the airborne troops, and did not continue to approach, as if they were waiting for some order.The soldiers who were waiting in full battle did not fire rashly. The two groups of people just faced each other like this. The tense atmosphere in the air continued to escalate, and a fierce battle would break out almost at any time.

Those reformed people danced with weirdly twisted limbs, and seemed to be shouting something loudly - but because of the special "sound insulation effect" in this area, Ke Lan and the others couldn't hear what these people were shouting at all, and could only hear it from their mouth movements. Make some rough judgments.

The most frequently occurring syllables in these reformed populations are "great gods", "prophets" and some words and sentences related to sectarian beliefs.

"The Legion of Loyalty is a group of people who are most loyal to the prophets in the heretical sect. They are superstitious and firmly believe that accepting this kind of transformation operation is the correct way for human evolution... According to the anatomy report of the Institute, the brains of these people They have all been destroyed by the seeds of erosion, lost the most basic logical thinking ability, and completely become a murderous weapon in the hands of the prophet." Ke Lan took advantage of this gap to explain to everyone, "Of course, these are all It's not important, the most important thing is - the position of the Loyalist Guard in the heretic sect is equivalent to the Prophet's personal guard. Although there will be a small number of Loyalist Guard members in other settlements, most of them, He has always followed the Prophet."

"The group of guys in front of me... I just counted them, and there are 270 and five people in total..." Layton said silently, "That means, the news is likely to be true."

The true body of the Prophet is here!

Finally, the reformers of the Loyal Descendants Guard finished their "prayer" before the battle and began to rush towards the airborne troops—and the moment they charged, Ke Lan decisively gave the order to attack.

"Fire!"

The multi-barreled machine gun mounted on the armored vehicle spit out flames more than two meters long in an instant, and the dense rain of bullets immediately poured on the reformers of the loyal descendant guard in the front row, and the bodies of more than a dozen reformers were torn to pieces in a blink of an eye. , while the Seed of Corrosion, which had escaped from the shackles in their bodies, twisted its blood-stained tentacles and rushed forward at a faster speed.

Before these monsters rushed forward, a sufficient amount of active ammunition penetrated their bodies, ending their lives.

But the battle situation is not optimistic for Ke Lan and the others—there are at least 50 people rushing to the forefront of the modified containers, but this round of shooting only killed less than one-third, and the rest of them were either hard-fought 25mm machine gun shells, either passed through the gaps in the bullet rain with extremely high mobility - the most exaggerated one was a man who was more than two meters tall, with a total of four arms attached to his body, and his abdomen was bulging like A reformed man like a big water tank, his abdomen shone with a dark green light, and a solid energy shield appeared directly in front of him, intercepting all the shells fired at him.And those cyborgs whose physical strength was not strong enough to resist shells, and who did not have high mobility, all hid behind him.

"This guy...does he have a shield generator in his stomach?" Layton exclaimed.

"On Alpha Planet, although there are not many indigenous creatures that can release energy shields, they are not without... Some species that have been transformed into biochemical weapons by Alpha civilization will also have this ability. He should use this ability to generate energy The organs of the shield were transplanted into the body..." Ivan said, his tone was calm and there was a hint of excitement, in order to suppress this emotion, he had to take out the flagon and took another sip.

Apart from this cyborg who can release energy shields, the fastest one to charge is a cyborg with arms like a praying mantis, covered with dark green scales, and with two pairs of insect wings on his back... There are very few parts that belong to humans, and it is not known how many times he has undergone transformation operations.

"The armored vehicles cease fire and retreat! The first and second mech squads are on top, ready for close combat! The third squad is responsible for support, and the rest of the firepower is to attack the enemy's energy shield!" The commander of the mobile unit shouted.

His thinking is correct, the energy shield has a limit, as long as the firepower is strong enough, the shield can be pierced or even exploded directly, as long as the big belly can be solved, most of the reformed people can be wiped out. On the way to charge.
