Volume 6 The Storm (19)

A spotted leopard is lying on the side of the road, enjoying its prey with relish. It was a mutant grey rabbit the size of a hound, and had been eaten by a leopard while searching for that pitiful little bit of food in the cold season.

Suddenly, the leopard pricked up its ears, shook twice, and simply stood up, looking towards the end of the road.

The ground began to shake slightly, and the leopard reluctantly lowered its head to pick up the uneaten prey and dragged it into the dense forest next to the road. Within a few seconds, base cars began to emerge on the road in the distance, and the tails were connected to form a convoy that stretched for several kilometers.

Liu Yuxin was closing his eyes on the bed in the lounge of the base car, sitting in the car for several hours in a row made him feel a little tired, and after eating something indiscriminately, he folded his clothes and lay on the bed.

In the past two days, Liu Yuxin has been unable to sleep well, and often wakes up in the middle of the night to remember all the things we have together. Parting is always very painful, but Liu Yuxin, who is powerless, can only look forward to a reunion in the coming day.

Unlike Liu Lao Yuxin's listlessness, several other people in the team were extremely excited. The first time they went out on a mission and was with the idols of the academy, they were chattering all the way, constantly talking about their thoughts about the mission.

Because it is a large-scale combat mission, in order to balance the combat power of each squad, the academy has redivided the team of students with spiritual uniforms, and Liu Yuxin is the captain of the reorganized 085 tactical team.

"Captain, I heard that after this battle, we will be officially integrated into the army and participate in the alliance's general attack on xenomorphs?"

"Hua Xiaolou, what you asked about is a military secret, even if the captain and the student union are very familiar, it is unlikely that they will know!"

A short-haired girl with a few freckles on her face couldn't help but open her mouth to teach the student named Hua Xiaolou a lesson, the captain is obviously very tired, okay, you still bother him!

"Am I not afraid that the captain will be bored alone? Talk to the captain and kowtow......"

"Xu Wenli, don't be angry, Hua Xiaolou is also a good intention."

It was a ponytailed girl who stood up to relieve Hua Xiaolou, and she waved her hand at Hua Xiaolou again and again, signaling him not to say any more

"That's it, you see how understanding Xu Jing is, you should learn more from her"

"You ......"

"Okay, don't make a fuss, you're about to enter the conflict zone, everyone check their equipment."

Xu Jing grabbed Xu Wenli, who was about to run away, pressed her back to the bed, and then began to maintain his Gauss rifle.

The noise of several people disturbed Liu Yuxin, who was in the fugue, knowing that his decadence as the captain of a squad could easily affect the overall morale, so he cheered up and smiled

"Although our strength in this encirclement and suppression is several times that of the swarm, our opponents are very cunning, especially good at hiding and ambushing, and we must not take it lightly. I will lead you on this mission, and I hope to bring you back to the academy in their entirety. ”

This time, the mission is to sweep the swarm in a team after arriving at the designated area, and each team will conduct a carpet search after it is launched, and clear all the digging swarms.

Of course, the initial battle as a group of reservists is not very difficult, in addition to arranging several times the strength of the swarm, the alliance is also specially equipped with medical soldiers for this mission, as far as possible to save every battlefield wounded, after all, the students of each academy are the elite of the alliance, after the end of the mission, all must be sent to the army as non-commissioned officers, and each death is an immeasurable loss to the alliance.

When the convoy arrived at its destination, Liu Yuxin stepped out of the car, and now he was eager to know the news of Nangong Qian and Shen Hongxia. Nangong Qian was assigned to another team by the academy as the captain, and Shen Hongxia was directly assigned to the mobile unit because she broke through the fourth order.

After two laps around, Liu Yuxin returned disappointed. The base is just too big! In order to improve the fit of the various academies, all the armed forces have been dispersed, and finding a specific two people in this vast base under the condition of prohibiting communication is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Liu Yuxin felt lost again, since stepping out of the 521 base, Liu Yuxin has always had friends by her side, and this is the first time she has been alone.

Can't always rely on them! Liu Yuxin secretly admonished herself in her heart.

You have to get used to cooperating with unfamiliar teammates, and in the ever-changing battlefield, it is impossible to always have your own acquaintances by your side, and any comrade-in-arms is worth relying on.

This thought prompted Liu Yuxin to return to his base car, while his new teammates were picking out the right spare parts for their weapons in the open supply warehouse.

"Captain, are you back? We've completed the rearmament, and it's up to you, Captain. ”

Hua Xiaolou first saw Liu Yuxin coming back, and patted the specially made battle uniform on his body, the tactical pockets and weapon hanging points on it were already filled with various weapons and ammunition.

Liu Yuxin looked at the long knife behind his back

"You're a melee evolutionary?"

"Well, Xiaoli and I are both melee type third-order evolutionaries, responsible for exploring and opening paths."

Hua Xiaolou first pointed at Xu Wenli, and then pointed at Xu Jing

"Xiao Jing is a perceptual evolutionary, responsible for fire support."

"My name is Wang Li, and I am an assaulter like you, the captain, and the other mecha in the base car is piloted by me. The other person who was there to maintain the base car was Child, the fireman of the squad. ”

A sturdy man jumped out of the cab and looked Liu Yuxin up and down. Although he had long heard of this strange freshman in the academy, what a 'goddess of luck', what a 'miracle child', but he had always rarely cared about anything other than mecha things, it was the first time he had seen Liu Yuxin himself, and after looking at it for a while, he couldn't help but feel amazing.

Damn, is it really good for a man to be so pretty? Looking at his delicate and delicate appearance, he doesn't look like he can fight, and those legendary records won't be made by his former teammates for him!

At this time, the last team member also came over, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see his new captain, he and Wang Li received instructions to enter the cab early in the morning, and had been discussing their captain on the road, but they didn't expect Liu Yuxin to be really as charming as rumored.

That's not a good sign......

A few people gathered in a circle and didn't talk a few words, and everyone's communication terminal turned on at the same time, and then a notification was transmitted

"The tactical command center has been constructed, and each squad is connected to the command network!"

"Tactical terminal data updated, each squad mission address has been updated"

"Now start preparing for the battle, set off in five minutes, and wish you all a victorious start!"

By the time the AL broadcast was finished, a radar map appeared on everyone's terminals, and all units were marked with green, blue, and red dots.

"Except for Innocence, the rest of the people are all ready to go!"

Liu Yuxin stood up and activated his King Kong.

Five minutes passed in a flash, and the battle teams of the base went out in batches, and when all the squads were in place, they formed a large net and surrounded the place where the insect swarm was entrenched. Soon, the view of the various teams entering the dense forest and mountain range was blocked by various obstacles, and they lost each other's figures.

"Strange, huh? Why haven't we moved along the way? It can't be that the device is broken, right? ”

Hua Xiaolou shook off the detection equipment in his hand, and the places searched by the rest of the teams were all made into a pot of porridge, and various team battle reports and support requests were in the public channel, but their area was quiet like a paradise.

Xu Wenli looked at the biological detection equipment in her hand, which was also peaceful, and said helplessly:

"Maybe there's really no swarm in this area, right? If it's just a broken piece of equipment, are the other squads in the vicinity also quiet? ”

This time the luck is really back, if the main operation ends so calmly, she is embarrassed to say that she has been on the battlefield afterwards.

At least a few heads, right? Damn the swarm, where the hell are you hiding? You're going to give it to my aunt and grandmother!

Xu Wenli cursed in her heart, and the whole person was about to go crazy.

The team continued to search for more than ten minutes, but all the people found nothing, while the rest of the teams had already defeated their intended targets and began to pursue.

That's not right!

Liu Yuxin felt very wrong in her heart. Al had assigned them a mission area here, indicating that the satellites had observed a large number of insect swarms in this area, and they had not encountered any of them so far, and even if the insect colonies had migrated as a whole, there should not be no signs of insect swarms nearby. In just a few days, nature cannot erase all traces of migration.

"Team 021, we're Team 085, did you find anything unusual there?"

"I'm Team 021 and there's nothing here! There are no beasts, no wild xenos, no so-called swarms, what are the fools of the TMD Intelligence Department doing? Let's catch insects? ”

The leader of the 021 squad was obviously also dissatisfied with being released into the pigeons, and he went back in ashes without firing a shot, so he couldn't be laughed to death by that group of colleagues?

They don't have anything there either?

Liu Yuxin, who was vigilant, was thinking about whether to use his super perception in front of the new team members, when Hua Xiaolou's exclamation made him dispel this idea after a burst of stone sliding.

"Captain, come and see,"

"What's going on?"

Liu Yuxin, who heard the sound, walked over and saw Hua Xiaolou looking at a hole that suddenly appeared on the mountain wall in surprise.

"I was a little unhappy just now, so I took a knife and slashed here, and that's it."

Hearing Liu Yuxin ask Hua Xiaolou scratching her head, she was quite embarrassed

"This should be one of the entrances to the swarm's lair"

Wang Li drove his mecha over and analyzed it with the onboard equipment

"There's a Zerg paw print on it, it's the entrance to the cave! I didn't expect the swarm to learn to disguise, no wonder we couldn't find them. ”

"The entrance to the swarm lair?"

Hua Manlou's eyes lit up, and without waiting for Liu Yuxin to stop it, he drilled into it with a swish

"Hey, you're ......"

Wang Li stretched out his hand but couldn't stop it, he turned his head to look at Liu Yuxin

"Captain, that kid from Hua Xiaolou got in, what should I do now?"

Liu Yuxin felt a burst of MMP in her heart, and immediately connected to the command center

"Command center, this is Team 085, we found the entrance to the swarm nest in the mission area, and we will go to pick up the team members in the cave next. Now we have set up a beacon at the entrance, please send someone from the command center to increase the source as soon as possible! ”

"Command center received! Please keep beacon contact open! ”
