Chapter 0232: Brewing (2)
To everyone's surprise, more than a month later, everything was normal on Planet JNO.3 and at the ground base......
The insect nest that had been destroyed by the fusion device had not moved at all, except for the beginning, when a swarm of flying insects attacked the Marines and the armored transport ship on the mission, and there was no trace of them even on the map.
Seem...... The bugs have disappeared completely?
So far, the ground base has more than 300 siege tanks with heavy support firepower, hundreds of combat vehicles of various types, more than 3,000 marines, a ghost agent and colonel's little girl, and 501 wraith fighters.
Not...... You read that right, there were only 500 of them, but now it's the one with Annie!
There are countless machine gun fortresses in other ground defenses, more than 200 missile launch towers, and tens of thousands of anti-aircraft missiles and ground-to-ground missiles in reserve, which is enough to engage in a super-large-scale high-intensity battle with the insects.
Of course, in the missile silo next to the base, there are also three tactical nuclear fusion intercontinental missiles that have been produced on standby, and it is unknown whether they will be used for the time being.
In the past month or so, two major events have happened on the human side of the Hope that everyone should talk about!
The first thing is: on the side of the asteroid belt, the five heavy battlecruisers at Base 2, which represent the giant battleships of mankind's ultimate space force, finally walked off the production line as scheduled in everyone's expectations!
This terrifying weapon of war, this large heavy battleship, is a veritable flying fortress with thick armor, energy shields, and terrifying turret firepower of all calibers and calibers!
Especially the Yamato cannon in front of its bow, a terrifying weapon that can strike fear into the hearts of the enemy!
Its principle is generally to concentrate a nuclear explosion into a beam of energy through a high-density magnetic field and launch it......
So, normally, the cannon needs to reserve a huge amount of energy to fire, which depends on the power supply of the giant reactor inside the battleship.
In battle, each Yamato cannon fire always requires a long period of reserve energy and the cooling of the equipment after the launch, compared with its amazing destructive effect on the target, its only drawback may be the cold and regrettable firing speed.
Now, however, they were born to preserve peace on the human side of the Hope, and to bring destruction to the enemies of humanity!
Of course, now they are still a long way from being able to truly enter the military combat sequence and serve and really go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
After all, their crews are just a group of recruits trained in a holographic simulation platform, and they can only barely operate the battleship and launch weapons, and they will definitely not be able to adapt to high-intensity battles.
And another thing that the Hope is concerned about: Ghost Agent, the two elite marines trained by Colonel Anne, after a month of realistic training and simulation training, have initially formed basic combat effectiveness.
So far, these two marines, who suddenly announced their names as Demacia Squad and Noxus Squad before, have been relatively low-key, and apart from the precious weapons that they usually see on their backs all day long, no one seems to have seen them shoot?
However, according to people familiar with the matter, it is said that the combat effectiveness of these twenty of them is still unexpectedly strong?
When training in the simulation platform, the twenty of them, it is said that they can still use rifles, just with their big swords and giant axes, when they stubbornly slash thousands of puppy bugs head-on, they have achieved a complete victory with zero casualties?
Moreover, this is not all, it is said that with tacit cooperation, the twenty of them can still kill a terrible insect in the form of a giant mammoth elephant in hand-to-hand combat, without the support of any heavy firepower?
Of course, this is just a rumor, and everyone, during this time, doesn't know much except for seeing them carrying their cold weapons all day long.
And the records of their usual training, it is said, are also listed as a senior secret of the Hope, and those who do not have enough authority are forbidden to access them?
It is precisely because the other party is so mysterious that it is concerned by the entire Hope, and except for a limited number of big guys, it seems that no more people know about it.
And those who only know a little bit of it are becoming more and more mysterious in the word of mouth......
……
It's just that none of this has much to do with Little Annie, if she knew that the battleship of the Hope was launched, she would really be able to grab one?
However, now, instead of fooling around on the Hope, she is not fooling around in the ground base, but has taken on an expatriate mission, and is preparing to eliminate a group of insect swarms that have emerged from the earth's crust and dared to build an open-air insect nest on a resource-rich island.
There are not a lot of bugs in this swarm, and there are a lot of bugs: whether it is a puppy-like bug, or a stinging snake that shoots bone spurs, or a flying dragon-shaped flying bug, or even a giant monster that can levitate a balloon out of thin air like a giant brain?
They are of great variety and a clear division of labor, and they are orderly exploiting the resources of this island and building their terrifying monster structures.
Obviously, they are sapient beings with a clear purpose!
So, after the military satellite detected the situation, Doug and Captain Leona aboard the Hope quickly discussed a preliminary plan: send their only ghost agent on a mission to eliminate the growing swarms and their nests, which numbered tens of thousands of them!
At first glance, it seems that this task is outrageous, a ghost to destroy tens of thousands of bugs?
But in fact, it is not, because, now in the base, there can be a full three long-range tactical fusion nuclear missiles, and the ghost agent has the authority to command the missile launch and guidance, plus, little Annie, the ghost agent, she has a specially equipped ghost fighter, so, to carry out this mission, there is no more suitable than her!
The CF/A-17 Wraith fighter is not only an excellent air supremacy fighter, with a high flight speed and range, but also equipped with a lot of anti-aircraft missiles and ground-to-ground laser cannons, plus, its own built-in concealment position by the main power palace, combined with the armor of the ghost agent who can also have the concealment function, so that in addition to the ghost agent of Little Annie, there is no more suitable person to carry out this mission.
If it weren't for the fact that this bug nest appeared on the ground for the first time, if it wasn't for the fact that it was on the other side of the planet where the ground base was located and the bugs seemed to have some kind of interference measures, and the base currently had too few nuclear bombs, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, and had to send ghost agents, it is estimated that it would not need little Annie to guide it, just the guidance of military satellites would be enough, right?
……
"Crooked? Base Command Center? I see the base of those bugs! It's a big patch, and there are so many bugs......"
At this moment, on a high mountain on this island, little Anne turned on the stealth function of her ghost suit tight armor, and was lying on top of a large rock, through her scope, while observing the situation in the distance, while reporting to the ground base.
Not far behind her, her special aircraft was also in stealth mode, and it was parked under a slightly hidden cliff, whether it was a flying bug in the distance, or a patrol dog passing by, it was easy to find.
"Okay, the base has been received! Colonel Annie, you are ready to guide the nuclear bomb, your nuclear bomb launch permission is now activated, please open your own interface and follow the process! ”
In the ground command center, a liaison officer in charge of following up on the matter, after seeing the footage from the ghost equipment and the location of the hive and the ghost confirmed by the satellite were outside the safe range of the explosion, he officially linked the link between the ghost agent and the base's nuclear bomb silo according to the prescribed procedure.
Now, this eight-year-old ghost agent, she has officially become a being with a nuclear weapon launch button in her hand.
"Huh? Nuclear bomb?! Wait, I'll find out! ”
Anne already knew what a nuclear bomb was, whether it was blowing up the undead in the world of Azeroth, or in a simulation game, she didn't use it less, it smashed up, and it was very exciting!
"Nuclear bomb...... Nuclear bomb...... Where are you? ”
Soon, little Anne was muttering to herself while using the gaze of her own eyes to operate in the holographic interface of the helmet.
After flipping through many holographic interface frames, she finally found the operation interface linked to the nuclear bomb silo next to the command center of the ground base.
"Wow! Tibbs, hurry up, let's zoom in on the mushrooms again! ”
After finally finding the control interface, little Anne quickly called her bear in her soul connection.
Last time, where did she drop the nuclear bomb in Silvermoon City, he couldn't see it carefully and was dazzled, this time, she has a ghost mask to protect the horizon, she must take a good look.
That kind of big fireworks, throw it yourself and wait for it to explode, it must be very enjoyable, right?
(Okay, I'm ready, let's take a good look at the nuclear bomb in this world, how powerful is it?)
- After hearing that Anne's master was going to grow mushrooms to play, Tibbs also became energetic.
It seems to be already considering: if these nuclear bombs are powerful enough, should they continue to instigate their little master and secretly get a few treasures stuffed into the space backpack as the bottom of the pressure box? Or as a killer feature? )
"Uh-huh...... The instructions are the same as in the game, so I guess I've learned how to use it! ”
After looking at the instructions on the operation interface, which seemed to be almost the same as those she had made in the holographic game, little Anne was very impatient and skipped its instructions directly.
Then, the interface quickly jumped to the one she was familiar with.
"Aha! I found it, it turned out to be here! ”
After cheering, little Anne hurriedly operated her weapon.
Under the muzzle of the 20 mm caliber Flame Goddess I SS-01 specially made super powerful electromagnetic sniper rifle in her hand, there is an embedded low-frequency laser guidance device, which emits low-frequency lasers that can only be clearly seen by the ghost agent's special eyepieces.
Therefore, when it is used to lock on to the target, in addition to the ghost agent himself, only the guided nuclear bomb can search for this low-frequency laser of a special frequency that is invisible to the naked eye and ordinary equipment.
Tibbs ...... You said...... Where the hell are we going to blow up? ”
Looking at the huge and hideous mountain of bug nests in the distance, the kind of things that seem to be able to move, makes Anne look very uncomfortable, and she wants to blow them up with a nuclear bomb!
However, looking at the other side, there are all those frolicking bugs, and little Anne wants to blow them up!
They look at it, there are so many spicy and dense them, once they are fried in the middle of them, it must be fun, right?
(Hmm...... Master Anne, why is the biggest bug building over there, do you see it? It's the reddish-purple one!
- Tibbs thinks that the building is the biggest, and it must be the best value!
Moreover, it is in the middle of the entire swarm base, and if it explodes somewhere, whether it is those buildings or those bugs scattered everywhere, it will definitely be affected!
It has played this kind of big fireworks in the world of Azeroth, of course, it knows the approximate power of the explosion, and I think that the nuclear bomb in this world will not be much worse, right? )
"Huh? The biggest hive? Well, then check it! ”
After looking at it a little more carefully, little Anne nodded in agreement with Tibbs's suggestion.
Who made that building the biggest? Who made it right in the middle of the bug base? Who made it look fleshy and ugly?
Well, she's decided now: choose it to blow up!
After turning on the special frequency low-frequency laser of the muzzle of her electromagnetic rifle and firmly locking on the big lump of meat, little Anne quickly clicked the button to confirm the launch in her interface.
Drip......
Permission Detection ......
Ghost Agent,
Colonel Anne Hasta......
Clearance has been confirmed, and the nuclear bomb has been launched......
Colonel Anne Hasta, be sure to keep the low-frequency aurora locked, the missiles are coming......
Soon, after little Anne clicked on the launched Anne, in less than half a second, a column of data was swiped in her holographic interface, and the information on it already showed that the nuclear bomb had been launched.
After pressing Anne to launch, little Anne and Tibbs, with wide eyes, waited with great interest for the big fireworks that were coming.
One minute......
Two minutes......
Well, a full three minutes have passed, and still nothing has happened!
It's been spicy for a long time, and little Anne is already very impatient! She felt that her hands were a little sore, but now, what about the nuclear bomb that she said would be? What about big fireworks, big mushrooms? Why hasn't it come until now?
In the simulation game, little Annifer played this nuclear explosion many times!
Each time, as soon as she pressed the confirmation button for the launch, generally, within a minute. The big egg would smack down, and then boom, and a large mushroom emitting a violent white light would rise to the ground!
But now? It's been more than three points in the past!
Could it be...... Didn't you press it right just now?
So, thinking that she hadn't launched just now or pressed the wrong button, Little Annie quickly switched back to the launch interface and clicked the launch button again!
Drip......
Permission Detection ......
Ghost Agent,
Colonel Anne Hasta......
Clearance has been confirmed, and the nuclear bomb has been launched......
Colonel Anne Hasta, be sure to keep the low-frequency aurora locked, the missiles are coming......
"Hmm...... Now, it should be right, right? ”
After confirming that she had really clicked the launch button this time, Little Anne finally nodded with satisfaction, and once again used the low-frequency special laser on her weapon to lock on the target in the distance, gradually calming her impatience and began to wait patiently.
One minute......
Two minutes......
However, another five minutes passed, and nothing happened......
"Tibbs! This thing, is it broken? Why haven't the missiles come yet? ”
(…… I'm sorry, little master, I don't know. - Tiebs himself wondered why it had been a few minutes since the big fireworks had arrived. Could it be that it's really broken? )
In a fit of rage, little Anne opened the operation interface again and pressed the launch button wildly.
Drip......
Permission Detection ......
Ghost Agent,
Colonel Anne Hasta......
Clearance has been confirmed, and the nuclear bomb has been launched......
Colonel Anne Hasta, be sure to keep the low-frequency aurora locked, the missiles are coming......
Drip......
The stocks of missiles from nuclear silos are insufficient, and the launch fails......
Drip......
The stocks of missiles from nuclear silos are insufficient, and the launch fails......
Drip......
The stocks of missiles from nuclear silos are insufficient, and the launch fails......
……
After the furious little Anne pressed the launch button at least a dozen times in a row, little Anne stopped in anger, and now she is very angry! Huge anger!
Originally, she was still looking forward to coming, so who would have thought that those things would actually drop their chains at a critical time?
She pressed so many times, and not a single missile came? It's been almost ten minutes!
"Hello? Colonel Anne?! Why did you launch so many nuclear bombs just now? Is something wrong? Feed? Feed! ”
Finally, when little Anne was sulking alone, she remembered the anxious call of the communications officer in her channel.
Just now, he was in charge of keeping an eye on little Annie's operation, originally, everything was fine, under his instructions, the little girl ghost agent, she successfully launched the first nuclear bomb.
From the window, he saw the nuclear bomb silo soaring into the air outside the base, and the nuclear bomb flying rapidly into the air, he nodded with satisfaction, the ghost agent's operation was in accordance with the specifications.
Now, the intercontinental nuclear missile has been launched, and in another ten minutes, it should be able to cross half of the JNO.3 planet, and by then, that high-yield tactical fusion warhead should be able to smooth the ground base of that bug, right?
Then, when he was idle, he hurriedly took advantage of this gap to run to the back of the command room, brought over a glass of energy drink, and planned to drink it comfortably while waiting for the big mushroom cloud that was about to light up.
However, what he never expected was that he had just brought a drink, and before his butt touched the seat, the nuclear bomb silo outside actually swooped out and launched a second intercontinental nuclear missile?
After that, he was just stunned, thinking that it was a ghost agent who felt that a nuclear bomb was not safe, so he directly launched two of them, so he didn't do much to investigate.
This act of launching two nuclear bombs at once to strike one target cannot be said to be wrong.
Because, the base of the bug is obviously an important strategic target, then, as a ghost agent, Colonel Anne has full authority to decide whether to launch one or two, and this kind of insurance is still in line with the regulations in the eyes of his communications officer.
But......
When another five minutes passed, when the last ICBM was fired from the nuclear bomb silo outside the base again, when he saw a series of messages requesting the launch of a nuclear bomb on the interface, he was as sluggish as he finally realized that things did not seem to be as he thought?
So, in an emergency, he hurriedly called the ghost agent who was still lying still in the interface, and he wanted to know, that little girl, why did she just do that?
"Humph! Your nuclear bombs are fake! It's been spicy for a long time, and they haven't come! ”
This person even dared to question himself, of course little Anne had to hit him first!
Nuclear bombs or something, it's all fake!
I pressed the spicy many, waited for the spicy for a long time, and none of them came, it must be fake!
"Oh...... Damn UPL, ah......"
The communications officer, who finally knew what the reason was, couldn't help but curse in his mouth.
"Colonel Anne! It used to take at least fifteen minutes of flight time for a nuclear bomb to be launched! Now, you immediately re-lock the target you want to bomb! Hurry up! You've got two minutes left! The first nuclear bomb is about to arrive! Hurry up!!! ”
Then, he began to shout loudly in the command room, drawing the rest of the staff and Commander Doug to look at him.
"What's going on?"
Doug walked over confusedly.
She didn't pay attention to the situation outside the window just now, because the soundproofing function here is good, and she didn't look outside, not knowing that little Anne fired all three nuclear bombs in one go.
And the other officers who saw this abnormal situation obviously had no right to intervene in the matter.
"Hurry up! Colonel Annie, lock on your target now! Right now! Hurry up!!! ”
Even when the command tube came over, he, the communications officer, still shouted loudly in the communication without hesitation.
Now that his eyebrows are burning, where can he still care about the commander behind him?
The reason why he is like this now is because, he found that little girl, she actually casually threw her weapon aside?
And what's even worse is that the weapon's low-frequency laser happened to be pointed at her own feet?
So, can he not be nervous?!
"Huh? It turned out to be a purple sauce......"
Little Anne scratched her head a little embarrassed when she heard this.
Realizing that she seemed to have misunderstood something, she picked up the weapon she had dropped on the ground again, and once again pointed the low-frequency laser, which was invisible to the naked eye, at the target she had decided......
