Chapter 27: Tasks (2)
Withdrawing his gaze from the window, Aijay turned to look at himself.
Kazuka Ichinoe has been recuperating with her eyes closed since she boarded the spaceship, her headphones in both ears, her body moving rhythmically to the music, and her face is full of relaxation. Ichinoe's movements were sufficient, and he didn't want to deal with Ai Jie's intentions. Her blunt attitude of refusal made Ai Jie very helpless, and it can be seen that Ichijiang's heart is not as indifferent as it seems.
On the other side, Peter couldn't bear it anymore, he kept accosting beautiful flight attendants or female passengers, and telling colorful jokes on the side. Amused the woman in front of her, and she didn't notice the strange eyes of the people around her.
Quietly looking away from Steeter, Applejack finally turned his gaze to a man and a woman sitting directly in front of him.
The pair of men and women wore the same military uniforms as Ai Jie and others, and the text on the epaulettes was exactly the same as the text on the epaulettes of Ai Jie and others.
SHC!
They are none other than the new members of the SHC Special Operations Team who arrived with the mission, the former Skeleton Squad and the Eagle Falcon Squad Captains - Malte, and Yusaki!
While Ai Jie was looking at the other side, the other party was also looking at Ai Jie.
Malte and Yusaki had just been hit by the total annihilation of the team, and after a few days of physical and mental recuperation, they were inexplicably sent to the so-called "SHC Special Operations Team". It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and it is normal for people like them to be transferred to other squads after they were completely wiped out. But what is unbearable is that the two lieutenants were transferred to the team led by the second lieutenant as members, how can this be accepted?
When they were transferred, they were clearly told that the SHC Special Operations Team was an extremely dense special team. The team is the product of the Federation's latest strategic plan, and the captain of the team is a superman who can transform into a giant of light and fight monsters in the flesh, and this team is of great significance to the Federation.
In order to make the two understand, the above also shows parts of the Hero Project, as well as the scene of the battle between Ajay and Arigella, for the two to watch. The earth-shattering power displayed by the Giants of Light in the Influence forced them to admit that such an existence was indeed of extraordinary significance to the Federation.
The head understands, but the heart doesn't really agree.
Knowing the Giant of Light only from the words and influences of others, Malte and Yusaki lack a sense of realism, and the mythical battle scene between the Giant of Light and the monster makes it difficult for the two of them who have come from countless Shura fields to have a sense of identity, and deep down they still can't accept it.
Looking at the three Aijie in front of them, Malte and Yusaki couldn't help frowning.
These three people exuded an obvious atmosphere of recruits, and from the vicious eyes of the veterans, it was obvious that these three people had just graduated from the student stage and had not yet seen the horrors of the battlefield. Maybe it's because they've experienced the battle of the monster invasion base, and the aura shown by the three of them is not so weak, but that's all, it's just a little better than the fledgling recruits.
Malte and Yusaki are the characters who can become the captains of the elite fighter fleet at a young age, and they are already elites if they can become fighter pilots, and the two who become captains are the elites of the elite, plus their military ranks are higher than the three of Ai Jie combined, and it is natural for them to be dissatisfied.
Malte and Yusaki secretly complained in their hearts: (I don't know which madman above made this arrangement, the superior ranks are lower than the lower, this ridiculous team configuration is simply ridiculous!) )
Unhappy is not happy, fortunately, Malte and Yusaki are both well-versed figures, and the two who have been captains know how much the disharmony of the team is to the progress of the mission, so although they are dissatisfied, they are not obvious.
Temporarily joining two seniors as teammates, and both seniors have higher ranks than him, this random distribution method makes Edjay feel a little stressed. But he is the captain, and it is impossible for him not to deliberately touch this brow like Shi Peter or Yizhijiang, so he can only talk to the two seniors hard.
However, Ai Jie is secretly pleased that the two new members are elite members who have been fighting on the front line for many years, and have a lot of experience with monsters. There's nothing more reassuring to have such a presence in the team to back it up.
After sorting out his thoughts, Ai Jay did not put on a captain's show, he lowered his posture and began to discuss with the two seniors about the mission to be carried out on Earth this time.
The mission location of the SHC task force this time is on Earth, specifically in Iceland, an island known as the land of ice and fire somewhere in Europe.
Long before the cosmic century, human footsteps were all over the solar system, and the plan for space migration developed smoothly. A large number of human beings have immigrated to the major planets of the solar system, which has finally relieved the earth, which was somewhat overwhelmed by population and resource pressure in the early years, and human beings have also begun to transform and govern the earth.
The decline in the number of inhabitants of the planet has led to the reintegration of many cities into ecological habitats, and Iceland was one of the first to do so.
After the cosmic century, this natural island was once again put to use, and the Federation built a research institute here to be responsible for the Federation's scientific research. As various classified technologies and plans unfolded, over time, the island gradually began to restrict access and disappeared from the public's view.
Iceland, which is centered on scientific research, is inextricably linked to the military, and most of the funding for their research is provided by the military, and Icelandic researchers have lived up to expectations, providing the military with countless advanced technologies to help the military fight monsters.
However, not long ago, the Federation suddenly received an urgent notice from Earth: a monster has appeared in Iceland!
The weakest monsters have a destructive power comparable to that of strategic missiles, and on a planet that has nothing to do with monsters, how can the Icelandic Institute have a weapon dedicated to dealing with monsters?
There seems to be more than one monster in Iceland, and Iceland's fragile defense mechanism was destroyed by the monster in an instant, and there is no backhand at all. There was no one to protect them, and it was unknown how many talented researchers had died.
There is a fleet stationed near Iceland, but the Earth Army, which lacks experience with monsters, can't suppress the monsters at all, so they can only buy time for the Icelandic researchers to escape and drag the monsters as long as possible.
However, the monster is far more powerful and cunning than the Earth Army imagined, seeing that the monster is about to kill Iceland, the commander of the Earth Army immediately made a decision, he forcibly ordered the opening of the all-round protective shield inside Iceland, and locked up the monster and the researchers who had not escaped from the island together, and used the electronic barrier formed by the protective shield to block the progress of the monster.
Now the monster is only infesting Iceland, and if the monster runs to other peaks, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Those who are still on the island are forced to be outcasts, and the opening of the powerful electronic barrier also makes it extremely difficult to communicate inside and outside, and those outside the barrier can no longer understand the internal situation.
It's been two full days since it happened, and the barrier is gradually weakening under the attack of the monsters, and it is only a matter of time before the barrier is broken. Helpless against the monsters, the Earth Army can only turn to the Federation military for help.
I don't know what the Federation is considering.,It didn't send the Earth Defense Force 'Guardian' stationed on the Earth orbital space station.,Nor did it send troops from Jupiter and Saturn.。
Do you want to expose the power of the Earth Defense Force's 'Guardians' prematurely and hide the hole cards of humanity as much as possible?
Or do you not want to send troops to Iceland with great fanfare, attract the attention of the media, and thus leak the fact that there are monsters on Earth, cause panic among the people, and lead to distrust of the federal government among the people?
Or is there some other restriction or meaning......
The Federation, which did not choose to dispatch troops, naturally turned its attention to another high-end combat power existing in the Federation - the power of the Giant of Light!
The SHC task force led by Ai Jie is clear: to destroy all the monsters in Iceland and save them as much as possible if there are survivors on the island!
