Chapter One Hundred and Nine

"Stay on the alert." The team leader slowly approached the ruins with 15 good brothers.

"Warning, there's something coming." The pilot of the transport plane watched as the suddenly increased number of reflective points on the radar was approaching.

"Stop, open fire." The squad leader spread his fingers apart and swung it to the side twice. "Mackey, Dekker is on alert rear."

"Unknown object approaching, 350 meters away, 1 minute to arrive. Hell, enemy flying units, a lot of them! "The transport aircraft pilot's radar detected a huge reflected signal from the side, looked over it, and found that it was a large group of dense flight units." Butterfly? Or locusts? What a thing! ”

"Fire! Fire! "The team leader below looked at this large group of insects, even if the cranial nerves were artificially suppressed with fear, the team leader's mentality still collapsed." The transport plane landed, and here we go! ”

"Board in 30 seconds!" The transport aircraft did not hesitate to proceed directly to the landing procedure.

The machine guns of the 16 good brothers constantly strafed the huge butterflies that came into the attack. Faced with large-caliber bullets that fired at 4 times the speed of sound, these terrible butterflies were killed and fell one by one.

"Stand back! Back off! ”

The 16 Marines retreated as they strafed the door of the transport plane.

"You can't beat much at all!"

"Flanks, flanks! Enemy land ...... Don't! A cheetah-like creature crept up from the side, and the group leaped to their feet, piercing their claws through the power armor and stabbing the Marines in the chest.

"Damn, pay attention to the ground!" The squad leader operated the rifle and ejected the dagger, stabbed the cheetah in the abdomen while the cheetah jumped up, and then pulled the trigger fiercely. Then leave the cheetah aside. Pulling out the bayonet, the squad leader glanced at the tip of the bayonet, which had collapsed a little.

"What the hell is this...... The carapace on the surface of the body is so hard...... I'm not dead yet! "The team leader saw that the cheetah's glasses were still moving, and the cheetah was struggling, so he stood up, raised his gun and aimed at the cheetah's head, pulled the trigger, and shot from head to tail." This life force ...... Uh......" The team leader suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and a spike came out of his chest, and then the whole person was taken away in an instant. Looking back with difficulty, it was a giant butterfly that pierced itself with the spikes of its tail.

"Really...... See...... Ghost ......" The team leader raised the gun with difficulty and pointed it at the butterfly's head, and at this time, the team leader felt a warm current in his chest inject.

"Warning, deadly toxin detected. Call the nearest medic. ”

Before the squad leader's consciousness disappeared, the voice of the armor's AI was faintly heard.

In the next second, the team leader's meaning fell into darkness, and then, he was sucked into a dry corpse by this big butterfly.

"Captain!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Boarding! Boarding! The pilot of the transport plane opened the hatch and yelled at the Marines.

"Huh? Yikesβ€”β€”! The driver turned around and found that suddenly the cockpit was shrouded in shadows.

It was a large, praying mantis-like creature that flew onto the cockpit, and then smashed the cockpit glass with a single claw, pinning the pilot to the seat.

"What's wrong...... I'll go! The marines who boarded the transport plane heard the screams of the pilot and hurriedly ran to the cockpit. I saw only blood in one place, and a large praying mantis mantis chewing.

The Marines hurriedly raised their guns and shot the big mantis to death.

"Death to the driver! Who will open! ”

"I will." A Marine ran to the cockpit.

"Close the door." The last Marine to board the plane slammed his fist on the door closing button. As soon as he wanted to exhale, he felt a huge force hit his waist, and then he lost consciousness.

"Hey!" The six remaining Marines in the cabin looked numb. Because they all saw how this Marine died, an animal the size of a rhinoceros, with a tail that pulled this Marine in half.

"Take off! Take off! ”

The Marine, who could fly a transport plane, had just arrived in the cockpit and sat down, feeling not quite right. Glancing to the side, I saw that the lower half of the pilot's body was still in the seat.

"I ...... ......" The marines looked at this picture, listened to the urging of the other team members, and pushed the throttle violently, and the transport plane suddenly rose from the ground, and then it couldn't fly.

"What's going on?! What's that! "The Marines were almost speechless as they looked at what the external cameras of the transport plane had captured. A big tree, throwing out two ...... Whip? Pulled the wing of the transport plane.

"Turn on the afterburner!" The good brother who drove the transport plane smashed his fist on the big red button on the dashboard.

"It's late......" The marines who stepped into the cockpit first looked at the big butterflies that landed on the fuselage in despair. Then he saw a shadow falling, and immediately wanted to shoot out of the glass. Sure enough, a big butterfly was hit by a bullet.

The tail flame of the transport plane's engine burst into dazzling flames, and the Marines just received a sudden push on their backs, and they all leaked a reassuring smile, and then, the smile did not last for half a second. Because, the transport plane did not break free.

"Boom!"

"What a sound!" The Marines in the cabin looked at the armor plates around them in alarm.

"Knock knock knock!" The sound kept ringing.

"The big moth outside is attacking the armor plate!"

"They can't break armor plates."

"But we can't leave either!"

Listen to the metal moans of the fuselage as the transporter breaks free from its restraints. One of the marines in the engine room lowered his machine gun and pulled out his pistol.

"How about these!" The good brother who drove the transport plane reduced the throttle to the minimum, and the transport plane fell down, and then, pushing the throttle to the maximum again, the afterburner was turned on.

The transport plane jumped out dozens of meters, broke several tree vines, and was pulled again.

"They're going to break through the defenses."

The first Marine to enter the cockpit had given up and he looked at the footage captured by the camera outside the cabin.

"What to say." The good brother of the driver trembled and looked at his teammate next to him.

"Look, what they're doing."

I saw that the butterflies outside found a few points of the engine, and took turns attacking with spikes, and if the stab was broken, they replaced it with a butterfly. Now the engine armor has been pierced into a deep pit.

"What the hell these monsters!" A large butterfly landed in the cockpit, and a tail pierced the driver's good brother. Within seconds, the armor of the two engines was punctured.

Then, almost simultaneously, two engines burst into flames, and then, the transport plane exploded.

"Yi Anjun, what do you think?" Rabiel looked at Ian on the side.

"I don't want to see it." When Ian flew out of the big fluttering moth swarm, he looked down at the animation stored on his phone, trying to seek some comfort from his two-dimensional wife.

Hearing this, Reybier happily asked the technician next to him to hack Ian's mobile phone and began to play the highlights of the Giant Worm Islands.

"Fuck me!" Ian dropped his phone. "Hey!"

"What's the insight?"

"This battle can't be fought, humans go up to deliver food. At this rate of evolution, sooner or later they will evolve organs capable of fighting armored forces. If it's a sweep operation, the battleship will definitely enter the atmosphere, and those bugs, they will definitely burrow into the battleship. The human body is hard to fight against. If the nanobots are used in full to close the battleship, there will be problems both in sorties and in battle. Ian crushed one of his yellow hairs into a chicken coop, then rolled up his sleeves and frustrated desperately, trying to get goosebumps down.

"So, is it unrestricted nanobot devouring or fusion bomb orbital bombing?"

"After the bombing of the fusion bomb, the nanobots devoured without limitation, and there was no trace left." Ian watched the goosebumps on his arms basically go down and lowered his sleeves. "I sensed the planet a little bit. Planetary Consciousness ...... Probably think so. The plant roots of the Avatar star form a huge network of neural impulses. According to the scans, this neural network is tens of thousands of times more complex than a human neural network. Combining the number of nerve impulses present, this huge brain ...... The computing speed is probably about the same as that of the Federation's new quantum computer.

Then, that consciousness in this neural network, very aggressive, very mentally intense, and a huge amount of thinking. I made a brief contact and almost got washed into idiocy. Order the new humans in the fleet to stay away from this planet. Quarantine all new humans in the survey group, including me. Consider this ability to brainwash consciousness in the air.

Regarding its aggressive thinking, I think it has something to do with its first wave of colonizers. The big companies that mine ore and the mercenaries who go for the money are not very politically literate. ”

"Makes sense, let's get in touch with the Tyranid Empire. You say, if the Tyranid Empire doesn't want to exterminate the planet......"

"Then the two of them will fight together." Ian was categorical. "This group of creatures is beyond the control of ordinary civilizations, and once they have the ability to compete with interstellar civilizations, the consequences will be catastrophic. It may even cause a cosmic-scale disaster. ”

"General, the Tyranid Empire is calling." The staff officer knocked on the door and reported to the conference room.

"Come closer." Ray Bill and the others tidied up their appearance.

"I am the eldest son of the Emperor of the Tyranid Empire, Valian. You must have seen the following thing. ”

"See, it's scary, it's hard to match. It is planned to carry out orbital bombardment to completely exterminate life on this planet. ”

"We have the same intentions, but we don't have enough fleets to carry out a planet-level extermination order. Do you have enough firepower to enforce the extermination order? ”

"Yes, we carry more than 50,000 strategic-class weapons, and the follow-up fleet is designed to solve this problem. Not a single creature on that planet can be left. ”

"Okay, our fleet will be in charge of a small portion of the extermination order. When does it start? ”

"After 10 hours, the fleet needs to go into bombing orbit."

"Okay, we'll be in combat positions in 10 hours."

After agreeing on a combat communication channel, the two sides ended the communication.

"It seems that there is no need to go to war on both sides." Reybiel sent the Buckle.

"That's Mengsk, don't be careless, prepare a commando, just hold the time."

"yes, that's Mengsk...... The alarm sounded, the fleet prepared for orbital bombardment, and the hull armament of the 1st and 2nd fleets switched to live-ammunition armament. Investigate the fleet and prepare for the battle of the fleet. Ian-kun, what did Cybertron say? ”

"They said they could send three large warships to engage in orbital bombardment, and they had a weapon that was good against creatures." Ian looked at Optimus Prime's text reply

"Huh?" Rabiel looked back at Ian.

"Codename, The Seed's Substance Converter of unknown principle, can convert hundreds of kilometers of matter in the scene into a metal from Cybertron. But it needs to be materially dense to a certain extent. Ian looked at the performance parameters sent by Optimus Prime. I don't know exactly how this thing works, the matter after the explosion of this thing is amazingly fast, almost as fast as the shock wave of the explosion. Eventually, after the explosion on the surface, this thing will convert a dense substance with a radius of more than 100 kilometers into metal in a little more than a second.

After the explosion, the ground was a metal hemisphere with a radius of more than 100 kilometers. Flying objects in the sky, such as insects and birds, will also be converted into metal at the moment they are swept by the shock wave.

"It seems like it's going to ......," Ian still didn't resist the desire to understand the principle of something.

"Is this your strategic weapon?" Ian sent a text message to Optimus Prime.

"No, this is the ore conversion facility used by Cybertron when there is a shortage of metal ore, and it is considered a civilian product." Optimus Prime returned. "Metal blocks the propagation of conversion waves, so this thing is basically ineffective against Cybertrons."

"Your scientific and technological development is really ......"

"Cybertron was able to decipher the truth of the world in its most glorious era, and even rewrite part of the world's information, but unfortunately, most of the devices and Cybertrons who possessed these abilities have disappeared into history. According to records, the Fallen King Kong can create a black hole out of thin air. But, as you can see, he didn't show it in the previous fights. We believe that while he was shielding Kuntasha from all of Cybertron's super-tech, he was also shielding his own memory core. I have to say that it was pure luck that we were able to defeat the three of them. ”

"Indeed, then, do the seeds sell?"

"If you want, we can provide you with 5 samples."

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome, my friend, we have also observed the planet you named Avatar. We agreed that sooner or later that planet would become a threat to the entire galaxy, but we were not free to contain it in advance. ”

"You guys, fighting again?" Ian is a little strange, there is no trace of a large-scale firefight on Cybertron on optical observation.

Then Ian's phone popped up with a video request for Optimus Prime.

Ian compared his phone with Rybil and went out to pick up the video.

"The text exchange just now was too time-consuming." Ian could see the pain from Optimus Prime's big metal face......

"Some of the older generation of Cybertrons chose to transform into animals, such as dinosaurs, wyverns, orangutans, rats, and so on. When Cybertron Tech was blocked, they lost a lot of memories, so for nearly a hundred years...... They're wild......" the expression on Optimus Prime's face twisted even more. "After recovering their memories, a large part of them ...... It is difficult to accept his own ugliness for a hundred years, and he has fallen into a deep tendency of self-destruction. Both the Decepticons and the Autobots are rescuing these people. This is one of them. ”

"Second, most of us have been exploring the ruins under Cybertron, and for the past few hundred years, Cybertrons have been largely active on the surface and rarely go underground. But the unfrozen central database shows that Cybertron's underground is the heart of Cybertron. A large number of lost technologies that are not included in the central repository are buried underground in Cybertron. ”

"So you don't have any manpower now?"

"That's right, and besides, all Cybertrons, including Bumblebee, have developed the habit of lawlessness in hundreds of years of war, and once they are left idle, war will soon break out again. Megatron and I are working on a solution, and now we can only use the expedition to drain their energy. It will probably take decades for a social order to be established. ”

And that's not all...... A hundred years of high-intensity war have accumulated countless hatreds on both sides, and we need an outlet...... Huh? Megatron snatched the camera. At the end, he looked at Optimus Prime.

"Well...... There is a catharsis......" Ian's expression gradually became funny. "You guys, do you want to go to the Avatar Star...... Fighting together? The hatred accumulated in the war will die in the war. ”

"The casualties will be significant." Optimus Prime's eyes flickered a few times and calculated the price.

"If we break out in the archive now, all-out war, it will be the end of Cybertron." Megatron also calculated the cost.

"So, let's do it." Optimus Prime hesitated, but still made up his mind.

"According to statistics, there are no more than 1.3 million Cybertrons who have difficulty giving up their hatred. Most of them are veterans who have been fighting for more than 30 years. Megatron contacted a few of his more reliable veterans and quickly made statistics.

"If these people are put in the optimal delivery mode, they can hold out for 11 hours and be completely wiped out, more than half of the casualties in 9 hours, and they can withstand it in 3 hours without being defeated. The casualties were around 1 percent. Optimus Prime quickly exchanged information with Megatron and made a judgment after confirming the accuracy of the information.

"What is humanity's decision about this planet?"

"10 hours later began unrestricted orbital bombardment. Until there are no signs of life on the surface of the planet, then use nanobots to devour the surface of the Avatar star for 100 kilometers. Make sure there is no residue. ”

"Optimus Prime, can the predator's space bridge work?"

"Yes, now there are more than 70,000 energy columns that can be confirmed."

"Very good, I propose, in Cybertron Mobilization, send 1.5 million veterans to the 2,000 landing sites on the Avatar Star for a 1-hour tentative attack on the Avatar Star. Since the fragile human beings are not suited to face such a ferocious enemy, the tentative attack is borne by me Cybertron. How is it. ”

"I'll tell you that the battle should not end more than 8 hours from now." Ian couldn't think of a better way to resolve this conflict.

"Well, let's start organizing our forces, Sonic ?"

"Decepticons, the assembly is expected to be completed in 3 hours."

"Bumblebee?"

"Autobots, it is expected that the assembly will be completed in 2 hours, and the energy column will be distributed in 3 hours."
