Chapter 729: The City of the Kerks

About five kilometers in the direction of the center of the shield, it is the city of the Ox people, and the city of the Ox people is the same as the city that the gatherers have seen, the urban planning of the Ox people is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the most edge is the low house, the security here is very bad, the environment is very poor, there are often robberies, thefts and the like in the alleys between the houses, and the collectors who pass by also happen to encounter two small forces of the Quex people fighting in the alleys.

It's a bit ridiculous to say, the Kerx army on the edge of the shield is fighting with aliens, and the Kerrs inside the shield are also fighting with their own kind, isn't it good to have the energy to fight inwardly against civilized enemies?

If there is the best security on the edge of the city, it is the main passage to the interior of the city, the closer to the main passage, the better the security, because the main passage is garrisoned by troops, and the strong force can calm some people's cranky thoughts, although there will be occasional theft, but there will be no robbery, and there will be no shootouts.

Separating the edge from the interior of the city of the Kers is a towering rampart, constructed of ceramic composites, with a number of gun emplacements visible on the walls.

The gatherer who walked here almost thought he was dazzled, the role of the city wall It knew that even if there were no siege battles for the amoeba, even ground warfare was a thing of the past, the observation of other alien civilizations could still make them aware of the concept of 'city walls', just like the protective shield, the walls were designed to defend against external enemy attacks.

However, it is impossible to defend against all the troops of the Zerg by such a thing as the city wall, and the city wall of the units flying in the sky cannot be stopped, and the combat units on the ground can also bypass the city wall by burrowing into the ground.

In other words, no matter how thick and strong the wall is, when it comes into battle, it can only be a large ornament that makes the battlefield look a little more epic, and nothing else.

During the period of fighting another civilization, and being cornered, it was necessary to spend a huge amount of resources to build such a useless wall, and the gatherers immediately felt that the high-level brains of the Ox people were corroded by sulfuric acid.

Although there were many tall forts on the walls, the defenders above were very lax, and the gatherers passed by and saw many Kerx soldiers standing guard and napping sleepily.

Climbing over the walls of the Kerks, the environment suddenly changed, with tall buildings towering, streets becoming tidy, low vegetation decorating the streets, and no sewage flowing sideways, giving the collector the illusion that there were two worlds inside and outside the wall.

Although there are also thefts, but very few, whether it is the method of theft or the quantity, far from being compared with the theft on the outer edge of the wall, such as robbery, it is even more not, once it happens, it is a big event that can affect an area, and there will be a special management of law and order to deal with it.

The market was bustling with people, costumes and juveniles walking through the streets, and there was no tension in the war, and now there were Zerg units attacking them outside the shield.

"These Kerrs are not at all flustered by the Zerg attack outside the protective shield, and in turn, they understand that there have been many similar Zerg attacks, and they are used to it."

The gatherers deduced this phenomenon, because the Zerg attacked a lot of times, and the Kerrs had become numb and even habitual, so they were no longer afraid of the Zerg's attack.

This is a very reasonable deduction, long before the gatherers received the distress signal from the Kers, the Quex people were fighting against the Zerg, and after the Gatherers received the signal and arrived at the current star system, more than twenty-two years have passed, such a long time span, if the protective shield has been stable to protect the Kers, the Zergs will undoubtedly eliminate the fear of the Zerg outside the shield, after all, those Zerg units are impossible to cross the shield to hurt them.

"Assuming that the shield is a certain position, then the shield generator must be in the center."

Thinking like this, the gatherer headed in the direction of the center of the city of the Kers.

The people of the Kerrs have only one city, and the lights of the city can be directly observed with the naked eye in low-Earth orbit, and it took a lot of time for the collectors to travel to the center of the city. Love me

Several times the collector thought about simply flying over, but for safety reasons, he dismissed the idea, because it was not in a hurry anyway.

The closer you get to the center of the city, the taller the buildings become, the fewer people they are, the more crowded streets widen, and the number of patrolling squads of soldiers increases significantly.

Climbers to the top of a tall building can see the building in the center of the city, which is the tallest building in the entire city, more than ten times taller than the surrounding high-rise buildings, like a bush growing on the grass, the surrounding buildings are weeds, and the building in the middle is the shrub.

Moving on, the gatherers were once again confronted by a wall that was taller than the previous one, and the garrison was not as loose as before.

From weapons to actions, gatherers can deduce that these Kerx soldiers, if not elite, are at least the backbone of the Kerx army, and the Kerx soldiers who are fighting with the Zerg at the edge of the shield are similar to this.

"It's really heavily guarded, no worse than the guards at the edge of the shield, and it seems that I guessed correctly, it's about the shield itself......"

If not, the gatherers couldn't think of any reason to be so tightly guarded, except for the soldiers who guarded them, there were a variety of ray scanners scattered everywhere, and the high-energy rays of them were harmful to the body of the Kerxes.

However, this is not a problem for the gatherers, as long as it is careful enough, it is confident that it will not be detected by the Kers.

On the other side of the wall that separated the gatherers, the water carriers familiar to the gatherers were parked, and Hank, who had escaped from the outside of the shield, was reporting to his commander and completing the handover of the water carriers.

"Hank, thanks to the sea water you brought back, otherwise we would have been in danger this time."

The chief looked at the water carrier and praised Hank, who was directly concerned with the entire Kerkers, and strictly speaking, Hank saved all the existing Kerks.

"You're serious." Hank replied.

"Not at all, if it weren't for the hydrogen from the electrolysis of seawater that became the reaction fuel for nuclear fusion, the artifact that lost the electricity produced by the fusion reactor would no longer be able to shelter us."

“…… It's just a pity for Thomson they, alas, there are too many heroes of this era. ”

Thinking of the Aerospace Forces that had evacuated to cover Hank, the Commander sighed.

"Commander, we can't afford to hesitate any longer, those bugs are evolving, and one day they will adapt to the barriers, just as they adapt to our camouflage colors." Hank Road.

The commander, who was called the commander, was silent for a moment and nodded.

“…… I'll consider reporting to the above. ”
