The lava erupted like a flood on a normally habitable planet. The lava that is usually hidden beneath the earth's surface, because of the planet's extremely fragile mantle layer, the surging lava can easily enter and exit the surface under the constant change of pressure. The scorching lava heated the air, creating an incomparably strong updraft that made the Viking fuselage shudder as it tried to fly low.

The frightened pilot had to pull up the flight altitude.

The planet, which was full of wealth at this moment, turned into a hell at this moment. Even if the technology is as strong as the Tyranid Empire, which can conquer the starry sky and colonize countless planets, it will not be able to conquer the lava after all.

There is no way, the high temperature of the lava is really not much alloy can resist.

Flying over the boiling lava, the pilots were to be expected to lose continuity to the command center. Even so, fighters with positional correction systems have little to no need to worry about passing past mission targets due to loss of contact with the command center.

Time passes slowly.

As the lava erupted, the horizon reached almost its maximum, and the pilots, who had maintained a considerable altitude, stretched their altitude again.

The horizon that had been pitch black turned red under the light emitted by the scorching lava, and even the sky that looked up as clear turned red.

This scenario can go on for hours.

Soon, two Viking fighters offered to scout ahead. And the captain agreed without thinking. The tail flames of the two restless Viking fighters that had been ordered suddenly flattened, and then instantly rushed forward at an alarming speed, and the captain who watched was grinning.

Excessive acceleration can be uncomfortable, even for very physical pilots.

The red flowing earth, the red sky, if there is any difference in the flight path, it is the high ground on the ground, which is more or less large and small and will not be swallowed by lava.

Suddenly, the Viking fighter's communication channel rang.

"The mission target is under siege, and there are a small number of allosaurs and hosts on the opposite side, please come to support quickly."

The sound came from two Viking fighters that had gone to detect it.

"Guys, full speed ahead. As for the transport plane, maintain this speed, so as not to let the people inside lose their combat effectiveness when they get off the ship. After a simple command to the transport girl, the Viking fighter group accelerated directly and rushed to the mission goal.

————————————————————————

The area of the highlands is quite large, and even if you remove dozens of mine mules that obstruct the place, there will be a large area. Even if everyone rolls around and sleeps collectively, it is enough to play peek-a-boo. However, after the Worms attacked the Rangers, the oversized platform was too large.

No way, there is not enough manpower.

The first thing Zhao Yi did when he took over the command was to use the somewhat intact mine mules as a temporary line of defense, blocking the only passage from the high ground to the high protrusion, and occupying the commanding heights relative to the high ground. Although this also exposed everyone to the all-round blow of the alien dragon, Zhao Yi thought about it.

Because the threat of the alien worm cannot come from the alien dragon alone, it is also possible that there is a host that can load the alien unit and can fly in the air. Once they hold the high ground, the consequences are even more terrible if the host spends their troops on the high ground through air superiority.

If they occupy the high protrusion, then even if the host sends troops on the high ground, the ground alien units must pass through the trail to reach the high protrusion, and they still use the ground troops who are afraid of the alien insects when they occupy the commanding heights?

Just as Zhao Yi thought. The main nest of alien insects did not prioritize sending alien dragons to detect and harass them. Instead, they sent a large, slow, thick-skinned host.

The massive host slowly flew towards the high spurt, towards the top of the ranger's head. The alien creatures intent on smashing their heads quickly felt the love of the humans. Grenades and bullets smashed its drooping shots, shattering them into pieces along with the insects in his stomach.

The painful host quickly flew away in a hail of bullets, but after a while, at the command of the worm mother, it flew back again.

The beaten host stopped again on top of the Ranger's head, but circled to the other side of the high ground and began to line up the contents of his belly towards the high ground.

Visually inspect about twenty or thirty jumping insects, three or five cockroaches, and three or five stinging snakes.

This Alien Bug is a bit large in terms of the number of Rangers now. With the terrain and the protection of the Medic, they probably won't have to pay too much.

This alien army did not choose to attack immediately, but waited in place. At a distance of only a few tens of meters leading to the high protrusion, there is a mine mule barrier that has been simply reinforced with the plasma flame of fire bats. Being blocked and suffering from a rain of bullets, even if you have a numerical advantage, you will pay the price of total annihilation.

The combat power of both sides was transmitted through the eyes of the host, and the mother quickly made another command. The other host, loaded with more Blastworm as the main combat unit, flew towards the high ground. And the ground forces already on the heights ......

"Squeak!!

One of the jumping insects roared, and then all of them went out to disembowel, disemboweling the two fat cockroaches, and after a dozen or so jumping insects had eaten their fill, they began to bounce still and bounce.

The behavior of the jumping insects made the nerves of the Marines on the high protrusion tense.

"Why do jumping worms eat their companions?"

Why do people eat? For the sake of obtaining nutrients.

Why do insects eat their companions? It's also about getting nutrients.

The energy consumption of alien insects is obviously very low, and as long as there is a fungus blanket, it can replenish energy, so why use this kind of thing to replenish energy? And it's still eating high-level troops......

The motionless dozen jumping insects grew in vain, and this sudden change made Zhao Yi's heart suddenly chill.

They are there to get enough nutrients to evolve into poisonous blast bugs!

Few people know that the popping worm is a mutation of the jumping worm.

"We've got to go down and kill those bugs!" Zhao Yi yelled at his teammates. And the team members looked at this temporary captain who had a defensive line and had to go out to fight to the death.

"Those jumping worms are metamorphosing into bursting worms!"

Oh, the bugs.

The memory of the poisonous blast worm sneaking up from the ground to attack the Marines seemed to have flare-up a second ago, and now, the cunning insect wanted to sneak up on them in the same way.

The humanoid tank raider smashed through several of Chen's mine mule obstacles, and the bug on the other side was a grenade.
