Chapter 87: Treatment
"Michael, let the fourth battleship retreat back, and we will take the place of the fourth ship." The Marauder tightened his belt, and the long battle had made his spirit tense to the extreme.
At this time, an hour had passed since the appointed time, not a single battleship in the fleet was intact, his ship was also billowing with smoke, the door of the battleship's conning tower was tightly closed, and if Michael confirmed that the battleship could no longer save itself, he would eject the entire conning tower.
The high-speed scrolling figure of the Shock Explosion Worm grew larger and larger on the screen, at first it was just a small dot, then it looked like a grape, then the size of a watermelon, and when the Shock Worm was about the same size as the Moon when seen from the Earth, both the captain and the soldier knew that it was time to find a place to settle themselves.
There are still usable anti-aircraft artillery crews left on the battleship to kill the shock blast bugs as much as possible, but the number of bugs is too large, and there will always be fish that slip through the net and rush to the surface of the battleship.
"Boom!"
The giant ship groaned like a wounded whale, the hull of the ship trembled uncontrollably under the huge force of the explosion, and in the center of the explosion, whether it was the scorpion that landed on the surface of the ship, or the desperate resistance, the marines guarding the ship's surface were all killed at the moment when the ball of light appeared, and even the soldiers on the edge of the explosion were shocked out by the strong shock wave.
The battleship writhed awkwardly, and with Michael's powerful computing power, the battleship had minimized the damage possible, but with the steering engine failing one after another, the battleship's massive body had become the biggest target on the battlefield.
"Boom!"
It was another detonator, and the site of the explosion was very close to the conning tower, and the violent explosion directly de-energized the entire detonation of the conning tower's system.
Sparks flew from various precision instruments, and the two staff officers who were observing by the star map were burned in the face by the sparks, and lay on the ground wailing in pain.
In an emergency, Michael had to turn on the backup power supply, but even so, Michael lost control of most of the laser crew on the left half of the ship.
"Michael, prepare to break away from the flagship." The Marauders unbuckled their seatbelts and worked with the medics to help the staff officers lying on the ground, but the bug attacks did not stop with the ship's severe injuries.
For ships that don't have much resistance, the attack of the Shock Worm is constant, as long as one Shock Worm hits the battleship and makes the crew panic, more Shock Worm will collide with it.
In less than a minute, the third Shock Bug crashed into the battleship, and this time, the Bug aimed at the conning tower.
The concussion from the explosion directly cracked the internal organs of the four crew members leaning against the wall, cracks began to appear in the portholes, and billowing smoke came in through the door, making the crew in the control tower choke their eyes open.
"Abandon ship! Abandon ship! Everybody to the lifeboat, we're going to ship two. The marauder covered his mouth and nose with his clothes and yelled into the radio. In the explosion that had just occurred, the engine of the control tower, which was supposed to take off, was damaged, and the crew had to rely on the most basic lifeboat to escape.
Before leaving, he did not forget to pull out Michael's chip, in this strong electromagnetic interference environment, it is impossible for Michael to directly transfer to other warships.
Two guards followed the marauders closely, and along the way, countless crew members fell in the aisles, the blood had dried up on the ground, and it was very sticky to walk on it. Fortunately, the ship's gravity system hadn't failed, otherwise most people would have been incapacitated by the corpses and blood droplets scattered around.
"Sir, get into the lifeboat." When the three of them rushed to the tarmac, the huge No. 1 tarmac had already been attacked by scorpions, and more than a dozen soldiers were not enough to see in front of the scorpions, which were nearly four meters tall, so they could only let the scorpions wreak havoc on the lifeboats.
"No, go to the second hangar next door." The Marauders stopped a transport truck and rushed past the scorpion with full speed, but fortunately, Hangar 2 was not occupied, and the soldiers built a line of defense between Hangar 2 and 1 so that the surviving crew could rise safely.
The three ran into a lifeboat and took off quickly before there was any danger. When they rushed outside the battleship, dozens of lifeboats flew out together, and because the fighters were almost completely destroyed, the lifeboats had no control cover, and they simply became the scorpions' mouths.
The remaining two battleships saw so many lifeboats rushing out, and they also understood that the flagship had been abandoned, and there was no way, they had to cover these unarmed lifeboats with the few precious laser cannons.
However, none of the three people in the lifeboat on which the marauders were sitting could drive the boat, and the lifeboat did not have an interface for the microbrain, and there were too many scorpions next to it, and the anti-aircraft fire on the nearby battleships could not destroy these scorpions at all.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer lifeboats around, the Marauders were already desperate, and now unless a miracle happened, there could be no chance, but anyway, he had been desperately holding on for so long, even if he hiccups now, he should not be dishonored.
"Sir, the scorpions have retreated."
The Marauder snorted, and was about to meet his first death in this game, when the soldier sitting in the back seat patted him on the shoulder in disbelief.
The marauder wiped his eyes, indeed, as the soldier said, the scorpions were hesitating, ignoring the nearby lifeboats, the attack of the detonators had stopped, and the long black tentacles had retracted into Eritan's body, and the huge Eritan was gradually moving away.
"It seems that it was the eldest brother who succeeded." The Marauder muttered to himself, "Quick, return to the flagship, and prepare to pick them up with a teleporter." ”
At this time, the fleet no longer has the ability to pursue the bugs, and there were hundreds of battleships in the past, but now there are only three seriously injured Sun-class battleships left.
The lifeboat almost rushed directly into the hangar, and the marauders couldn't care so much, and ran directly back to the conning tower, fortunately, the battleship's teleporter was not damaged, as long as it was connected to the microbrain, it could be used.
"Marauders, Marauders, are you there?"
As soon as the Marauder plugged Michael into the connector, the sound of the sea shark came through the headphones.
"Yes, I'm here, I'll teleport you right away."
The Marauder turned his head to look at Michael, who had already locked the positions of the Sea Shark and Yang Jingzhong as he spoke.
"Don't teleport just yet, let two soldiers come with flamethrowers, and the medics should be ready." The sea shark said eagerly in the headphones.
"Okay, I'll do it right away." The Marauder didn't know why the sea shark did what he did, but he was certainly right to do what he said.
Before long, the personnel requested by the sea shark were already in place, and the soldier aimed the muzzle of the flamethrower at the teleporter.
"It's done, you can come up."
The point of light hovered over the teleporter, and soon, two snow-white people appeared in the teleporter,
"Fire!"
The two soldiers had actually opened fire before the marauders could give the order, and the fiery tongues of fire burned the thin threads on the armor, and the armor finally revealed its original color.
"Quick, the medic will give him worm suppressants!" The sea shark slapped the fire button, and the water droplets from the sprinkler head smacked the hot armor, quickly turning into a cloud of white steam.
The sea shark waited for the armor to almost cool down, and hurriedly took off the armor, only to realize that the thin line worm was only about a centimeter away from his skin, and if he slowed down for another half a minute, the thin line worm could burrow into his body.
Four medics rushed into the teleportation chamber, each of them wearing hazmat suits, which, unlike armor, were airtight and impossible for the Worms to get through anyway.
They uncovered Yang Jingzhong's armor, at this time he was full of fluffy worms, he had lost consciousness due to the neurotoxin secreted by the worms, if no one rescued him for a long time, he would be like those corpse pieces in the nest grain storehouse, he would become a piece of meat that would never rot.
The medic took out a blue spray bottle from the medical box and sprayed the medicine on Yang Jingzhong's body, and the fluffy thin worms immediately dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing pale skin. But this is only the first step, since the worms on Yang Jingzhong's body have been eroded for a long time, his body may be full of worms with thin threads.
Another needle filled with green liquid was removed, and the medics exposed Yang Jingzhong's neck and injected an injection into his neck. I saw that the skin near the liquid quickly faded white, and the original color of the person's skin was restored. In less than three minutes, Yang Jingzhong, who was still unconscious, finally opened his eyes.
"How's it going, are you feeling better?" The sea shark asked in a low voice.
Yang Jingzhong moved his arm: "It's much better, it's just that this headache is terrible." He covered his head as if he had a worm in his brain.
"Doctor, can't this medicine remove the worms from the brain?" The sea shark frowned and looked at the medical staff on the side.
"No way, normal fine worms will only make people unconscious, and will not cause headaches, his headache should be due to other reasons, wait for me to check his body." The doctor took out a small scanner and examined Yang Jingzhong's whole body from top to bottom, but found nothing wrong.
He took out a small instrument again, pressed Yang Jingzhong's finger on it, and pressed out a drop of bright red blood: "Strange, there is no special situation, it may be caused by pressure, just take a rest." ”
"Okay, thank you, doctor." The sea shark asked the two soldiers to help Yang Jingzhong to the captain's chair, "It's okay, you, it looks weird and scary when you suddenly fell down just now." ”
"It's fine, it's just ...... It's a bit hard to say. Yang Jingzhong wanted to speak and stopped, just touching his aching head and thinking about something, no matter how the sea shark asked him, he didn't answer anymore.
"Marshal, there is an enemy." A terrible siren sounded throughout the battleship, and in an instant, hundreds of battleships jumped near the ruined fleet, and the black holes of their guns were all pointed at the flagship of the sea shark.
The sea shark glanced coldly at the surrounding warships, and sure enough, after fighting the bugs, it was time to start a war with humans!
