Before humanity entered the age of fortresses, perhaps no one would have imagined that one day a highway would be built on Mars.

That's right, it's the road.

At this moment, Ling An was riding on a motorcycle, chatting with the rest of the team through the communicator.

Not far from him was Silas, who was also riding a motorcycle. The rest of the squad was in an open-top armored car not far behind him.

"Sister Youmei, why do we build highways in the glorious army, but don't build faster high-speed railways, we should have this technology." Rowan's voice came over the communicator.

"That's because except for the road, the rest of the roads are easily destroyed, and there are quite a few aliens who infiltrate the rear every year." A pleasant female voice came out of the communicator. This is the only woman on the team, Yumi the Sniper.

"Ling An, Luo Wen, you can look in the distance, there are guerrillas guarding near the road, just to ensure the safety of the road, even so, there are problems with the road every year." Another member of the team said that his name is Lu Anguo, that is, the old Lu in Sun Lei's mouth.

"Are those fighters guerrillas? I thought it was the Garrison? Ling An was surprised.

"The garrison is only responsible for the frontal line of defense, and all the fighting in the rear is the responsibility of our guerrillas, and normally speaking, the tasks of the guerrillas are divided into the following categories according to the different areas." Yumi said.

"One is the guard mission, which is to let the guerrillas protect various facilities in the rear, such as small strongholds and roads. Guerrillas like those who protect the roads carry out such tasks, of course, their tasks are the least risky, and the average alien race would not be stupid enough to go to these places to die. ”

"The first type is the rear mission, which is the area between the human fortress and the fortress of each war zone, including the water source, mining area, and commanding heights, which all belong to the rear area. Our next mission is to patrol one of the mines to eliminate anomalies, and encounters with alien monsters are unlikely, but not impossible. ”

"There are three types of high-risk missions, which are front-line garrison, red fog area missions, and special missions. The front-line garrison is to go to the first line of the front of the fortress against the alien race, and to help the comrades stationed there defend the position, which is to go to the alien race of the high-combat combat unit. ”

"The Red Mist Zone is to go to the area shrouded in red fog to carry out missions, and this type of mission is generally the highest risk. After all, within the area of red fog, the communication signal is interfered with, and the line of sight is also reduced. ”

"As for special assignments, the risks depend on the specifics of the mission."

"Different classifications, the basic merit points rewarded after completion are different, like the vigilance and escort mission, the basic merit points are only five hundred. However, you can kill the alien race, and when you go back, you can take the recorder to the Sixth Legion to calculate merit points. ”

Yumi's patient explanation gave Ling An a deeper understanding of the tasks of the guerrillas.

"Ling An, Silas, get off the road from the right after a hundred meters, and we'll get to the place." Matt's voice came out.

"Understood."

Everyone stopped talking, only the wind whistled by.

There are many slopes on both sides of the road, and the road itself is higher than the surface of the ground to prevent the road from being buried by wind and sand.

"Disperse the scouts."

After Ling An heard Captain Matt's command, he gestured to Silas, and the two of them drove their respective motorcycles towards the front wings of the armored vehicle.

After all, there are many potholes in the southern hemisphere of Mars, and even if the Glorious Army is capable, it is impossible to change the terrain of the entire theater of operations in so many decades.

This is also a problem, and because the terrain here is not flat, it is possible for alien monsters to hide, and if you are not careful, a scarlet demon will swoop out from behind a small hill.

Ling An tried to confirm whether these places were safe at a long enough distance, and although the communication was stable, he was still ready to fire flares at any time.

Fortunately, along the way, there was no change.

After all, this is the rear, and even if a few aliens cross the line of defense and evade the detection of satellites, they will not be exposed in these places.

In any case, once the alien race is found in the rear, it will definitely be exterminated, and it will be a small matter of interfering with resource gathering, and it will be troublesome to transmit the movement of human troops and relocation back to the alien race, or secretly establish a stronghold.

The ruler of the alien race, the demon race, has spatial ability!

The bikes are not loud, including the fact that these are specially treated vehicles to minimize noise.

Ling An and the others were going to the 01 mining area, and along the way, they could see some trucks full of ore, driving in the direction of the White Tiger Fortress under the protection of the guerrillas.

Bang!!!

Ling An was taken aback, that is, the red signal flare?

This shows that the alien race has been discovered!

Not in the direction of Silas, so far, it must be another team. They found the alien!

"Captain Matt." Ling An immediately reported and asked for instructions.

"Don't worry. But slow down some forward speed and start the timer. Captain Matt said.

A red flare, indicating that an alien race has been found, but each squad has its own mission.

If, of course, that squad emitted a purple flare, or if it didn't emit any flares after ten minutes. Then the surrounding squads will immediately rush there.

Purple flares, indicating that there is a situation that cannot be dealt with, in this case, all the squads that are seen in the field of vision must go to support as soon as possible.

In the worst-case scenario, no flares were emitted after ten minutes, indicating that the team was no longer able to respond.

Ling An was very nervous, and marked the point on the map of his Tianxun bracelet.

Time passed minute by minute, and Ling Anxin hung high, always paying attention to that side. And their route happened to pass through that neighborhood.

Fortunately, after another half a minute, a green flare went up, and at the same time, Ling An entered the communication range of the team.

"This is the 03209 squad, I am the captain Gong Hong, and I found two scarlet demons, which have been cleared."

Ling An exhaled, okay, okay.

"Mind what, keep going." Captain Matt's voice came from the communication channel.

"Got it, Captain."

I have to say that Ling An is on a mission on Mars for the first time, and this feeling is still very novel.

Mining area 01 is an iron ore mine.

There are thousands of mining robots that don't get tired and work day and night, and the ore is transported to the fortress every once in a while.

Mankind has never felt that it can win this battle by transporting the earth's resources, and Mars is also rich in mineral deposits, and many production facilities have been established on Mars, especially in various fortresses, which themselves have a large number of military facilities.

Otherwise, where did so many mechanical units on the front come from?

"Ling An, it's time to enter the mining area, narrow the distance, let's go first." Silas's voice came from the communicator.

There is not only one pit in the mining area, the scope is huge, and it is difficult to inspect it with a small team.

In addition to their 06706 squad, the combat team of the Seventh Brigade had to complete it together, but the other squads were from another direction, which was equivalent to a carpet search of the periphery of this area along the way.

Having seen Silas, Ling An drove side by side with him, and soon, the entrance to the mine came into Ling An's sight.

"Right here." Silas stopped and got off the motorcycle.

"Captain, the entrance is fine."

"Hmm."

"Let's wait a minute, and check again for loopholes near the entrance." Silas said.

"Okay, I'll go in that direction." Ling An nodded.

Captain, there was still a while before they arrived here, and Ling An followed the protective net of the mine area to check.

As soon as he turned his head, Ling Anxin felt like a big drum was beating, which shocked his heart.

This feeling!

It's an omen!

Ling An turned this feeling into an omen, because every time an omen was generated, something bad would happen in a very short period of time.

He wanted to tell Silas right away, but what to say? Chief Zhou Yang asked him not to take the initiative to mention it to anyone.

"Silas-senpai!" Ling An turned around and shouted.

"What's wrong?" Silas had just taken two steps and wondered.

"Be careful, I have a bad premonition." Ling An could only say this.

Silas was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Don't worry, I'll be vigilant, and you should be careful." ”

Looking at Silas's back, Ling An sighed secretly.

Maybe the omen was wrong.

Ling An also took a deep breath, turned around and went over there to check.

This kind of inspection is actually not dangerous, because the protective net can see inside and outside the mine, and there is no terrain around, so it is clear what is going on.

I believe that with his own reminder, Silas's seniors will also be careful, so that even if there are really alien monsters entering the mining area, they should not encounter too much danger.

Hey? This is?

Ling An walked a few dozen steps and frowned.

On the edge of the protective net, there were a few extremely small blood stains, if it weren't for Ling An's high vigilance because of the omen, and not letting go of the slightest abnormality, I am afraid he would not have noticed here.

"Silas-senpai, I found alien blood here." Ling An immediately said into the communicator.

"Be careful, I'll come right over." Silas replied immediately.

Putting down the communicator, Ling An remained highly vigilant, frowning slightly.

Bloodstains, not only on the ground outside the protective net, but also on the surface and inside of the protective net.

The green blood has dried.

Ling An guessed that it was estimated that there were really aliens who had entered the mining area and were injured.

"Ling An, what did you find?" Silas arrived, his face solemn, holding down the hilt of the knife with one hand and pulling out the revolver with the other.

Ling An told Silas his guess, and Silas pondered for a moment and nodded.

"Your assumption should be correct, report it to the captain immediately."

Reporting the situation to the captain, Ling An and Silas did not act rashly, in case there were a large number of aliens in the mining area, they would be in danger.

Hmmmm!!

Soon, the armored car drove over, and a total of eight people, including Captain Matt, Sun Lei, Luo Wen, and Yoshida Yumi, jumped from the armored car.

"Captain!" Ling An and Silas sighed.

The team is all gathered, alien cubs, wait for death.
