Volume 1 Departure Chapter 71 Mining Area
"You have a point, Yan Hong, dock with the mining management system and check if there is any abnormality."
Captain Matt crouched in front of the blood stains Ling An found, pinched the handful of sand sticking to green blood with his fingers, and carefully identified it, confirming that it was indeed the blood of another race.
"Yes, Captain." Yan Hong, another member of the 06706 team, replied immediately, and then took out his Tianxun bracelet and docked with the mining area.
Each mining area has a set of automatic management system, which will supervise the situation inside the mining area, and what Yan Hong has to do at this time is to judge the internal situation of the mining area through the monitoring facilities of the mining area and whether the mining robot is abnormal.
"Captain, the monitoring didn't see anything unusual, but the position of a mining robot in Pit B has not changed." Soon, Yan Hong reported.
"It looks like they slipped into the mine from somewhere else." Sun Lei said that when he was on a mission, he seemed to be a different person, which made Ling An and Luo Wen wonder if Sun Lei had twin brothers who looked exactly the same.
"Hmm......" Matt thought as he looked at the mine gates, frowning.
"The types and numbers of enemies inside the mine are not clear, but judging from the bloodstains, there won't be too many, just in case, Silas, Lao Lu, me, and ......" Matt looked at Ling An.
"Ling An, you are also with you. There are four of us, into Pit B. ”
"Hmm."
"Sun Lei, you take the others to be in charge of guarding outside, by the way, send broadcasts and signal flares."
"Understood." Sun Lei nodded, didn't say anything, just took out a signal flare from his bag, operated on the launcher for a while, and then with a long and crisp sound, a string of red smoke streaked across the sky.
"We are Team 06706, we have found traces of aliens in the 01 mining area, the number and type of enemies are unknown at present, our team will further investigate, and continue to send the latest information ......"
At the same time, the skylight above the armored car opened, and the first thing that came out was a heavy sniper rifle, and then a female warrior with a ponytail and a slightly round face with a typical oriental face rose.
"Hey, Lao Zhao, the car drove over a little, the angle here is off, and it is not good to hit the entrance of Pit B." This female warrior is the only woman in the squad, Yumi Yoshida.
The silent man sitting in the driver's seat is the old Zhao in Youmei's mouth, his name is Zhao Bin, and he is also the same as Sun Lei.
Zhao Bin drove the armored car to the position indicated by Yumi, and the other two team members, Rowan and Woodlow, came down from the left and right flanks to keep guard around the perimeter.
Yan Hong and Sun Lei had already finished the broadcast and nodded at Ma Ling.
Matt looked at Ling An and the three of them, and seeing that the three of them were ready, he opened the entrance gate of the mining area and took the lead in entering.
"Ling An, be careful." Rowan said to Ling An in the communicator.
"Well, you too."
"Hey, Silas, don't die in there, if you do, I won't widow you." Yumi said, although her tone was a little unconcerned, everyone in the team could feel her worry.
"Damn, don't send dog food." Sun Lei scolded angrily.
The communication channel was common to a squad, and the others laughed when they heard this, making Silas, who had already walked some distance with Captain Matt, blush.
"Got it, Yumi."
Ling An almost couldn't help it, and it could be seen that the relationship between Silas seniors and Yumi's seniors was quite good.
Such a small episode relieved Ling An's tension.
"Ling An, if something happens, try to lean towards us first, remember, our first task is to confirm the number and type of enemies, and after confirmation, lead them out and fight in an open position." Approaching the entrance to Pit B, Silas admonished.
"I understand, Senpai." Ling An pulled out the revolver with one hand, and pressed the other hand on the handle of the knife on his waist.
"Be quiet when you enter the pit." Captain Matt said.
The inside of the pit was not silent and dark, on the contrary, it was extremely bright, and there were many lighting facilities around it, and at this moment, some mining robots were pushing ore carts and passing by Ling An.
When a mining robot passed by Ling An, its head turned to Ling An, and after the camera focused for a moment, it continued to push the ore cart forward.
Ling An knew that it was a mining robot verifying his identity. These robots are also a big help, although most of the robots in the mining area are not equipped with weapons, they can still be controlled by the Glorious Army soldiers' personal terminals after connecting to them, helping to carry out the mission.
"Didi—"
The mining robot that passed by Ling An and them suddenly stopped, stopping the ore cart in place, and the red color of vigilance flashed on the screen of its big head.
"Captain, I've activated the miner's search system, and I've sent some robots to the miner whose location hasn't changed." Yan Hong's voice came from the communicator.
"Got it."
Ling Anxin was slightly relieved, this is the battle of the Glorious Army squad, with the assistance of robots, many risks can be reduced or even avoided.
Under Ling An's slightly curious gaze, the miner robots first looked at them, and after confirming that they were not the target, they turned to the direction they had come from, that is, the depths of the pit, and scurried on the ground, even faster than when they pushed the cart out.
"Let's go, although there are miners exploring the way, don't let your guard down." Matt's eyes didn't let up.
The four of them continued to move deeper into the depths, deliberately keeping a certain distance from the miners.
There is more than one road inside the mine, there are many forks, fortunately there are Yan Hong and others outside.
"Captain, there are traces of destruction here." Lu Anguo discovered an anomaly.
Ling An looked over, and Lu Anguo said that it was a pillar of a mine, which was somewhat unnaturally bent.
"There's that too." Silas pointed to the other side.
Matt's brows furrowed slightly, and he was about to speak,
"Woo-"
A roar was heard from the depths of the pit, followed by the sound of a fight.
Apparently, the first miners to rush there discovered the alien race and were at war with it.
"Captain, it's the Scarlet Devil, there are two." Yan Hong's voice came out of the communicator, and everyone could hear it clearly.
"They're running away from your location!"
The combat effectiveness of the miner robots is not strong, it is about twice as strong as ordinary humans, far less than the Glorious Army and alien races, but there are not many of them, and there are seven of the group of miner robots that passed in front of Ling An and them before.
Coupled with the batch that rushed there before, it is equivalent to a dozen or seven Scarlet Demons, although these robots will only simply smash, or use mining tools to knock them, but after all, they are made of metal, and the Scarlet Devils may be able to fight, but in this case, how can they be willing to fight meaninglessly with these robots with a certain amount of intelligence?
"Be ready to fight, intercept them here."
"Yes!"
"By the way, try not to use the demolition revolver to avoid destroying the passage." Matt admonished.
Ling An thought about it, and still took the revolver into his hand. The other hand drew the slashing blade.
"Woo woo !!"
The first thing that appeared in front of Ling An and the others was the remains of a robot, which was thrown out.
Then, two stout scarlet demons emerged from the corner of the passage, their ugly faces scratched. It was knocked out by a robot with a mining pickaxe.
The scarlet demon suddenly saw Matt and Ling An, and when humans and aliens meet, they are fighting, and these guys who only have the wisdom of human children who are a few years old suddenly widen their red eyes, roared, and rushed towards the four of them.
"Kill!" Matt roared and rushed out first.
The Scarlet Demon rushed forward and backwards, the first one with two front paws outstretched, and was about to swing down, when Matt suddenly accelerated, half-crouched to a point below it, and struck an uppercut.
"Woohoo!"
The Crimson Demon let out a roar of rage, sending its entire body flying and hitting the top.
Then a flash of swords flashed, and from the center of the scarlet demon's head, a green line of blood appeared, and the wailing came to an abrupt end.
Boom......
The Scarlet Demon, which had been split in half from the middle, fell to the ground, and the red crystals in his brain were also cut in half, and some of the green blood spilled and splashed on the indifferent Captain Matt.
"Uhhh
The other scarlet demon originally rushed forward fiercely, but when he saw his companion being easily killed by Matt, he was directly stunned.
Seeing Matt look at himself, the hand holding the slashing blade moved slightly, the scarlet demon's pupils shrank, and then he took two steps back, and then ran in the direction he came, deep into the pit.
Ling An was stunned.
What did he see? Scarlet Devil scared? Ran away?
This is too exaggerated, Ling An has always had the impression of the Scarlet Devil that it is cruel, whether it is in the virtual space or in reality, the Scarlet Devil is chasing them, even those cannon fodder-type Scarlet Devils who do not have red crystals on the virtual battlefield are not afraid of death.
Why did Captain Matt start running away as soon as he made a move?
"Ahem, these guys are wise, and if you outgrow them too much, they'll be scared." Silas explained.
Ling An nodded as if he didn't understand.
"Woo-"
The fleeing Scarlet Devil ran into an obstacle.
The miner robots who had been left behind by it and their companions happened to catch up at this moment, and in this passage more than five meters wide, a group of miner robots with mining picks red screens, raised the mining picks in their hands, and smashed them down.
The Crimson Ghost roared, but there were more miner bots here than before, and even if it could destroy one at a time, it would take a while.
"Captain, don't you give Ling An a chance to practice?" Lu Anguo stepped forward and asked.
Hearing his words, Ling Anxin moved, this is indeed a good opportunity, and besides, there seems to be a reward for merit points for killing aliens!
Matt shook his head.
"It's too narrow here, I always have a bad feeling, I'll talk about it next time."
Ling An pursed his lips, not too disappointed.
Lu Anguo and Matt stepped forward together to deal with the scarlet demon.
Looking at their backs, Ling Anxin always felt that something was wrong.
Bloodstain......
Ling An's eyes widened suddenly, by the way, bloodstains, bloodstains indicate that these alien races were injured, if it was caused by other teams, why didn't they chase in? Or send a signal to inform the surrounding squads of the situation.
Since there was no sign of fighting here, and there were no flares in the vicinity before, and there were no warnings from other squads in the communication channel, there was only one explanation.
Those bloodstains were deliberately left by the aliens!
