Volume 2 The Road to Redemption Chapter 104 Red Lines
Shi Hao took out the dagger and stabbed it hard, and found that the carapace was not pierced as easily as before, he put his hands against the dagger before he pierced it thoroughly, and the piercing process was like cutting cowhide with a blunt knife.
With a heavy laser gun, you can still easily burn through the entire head of the beetle, but after changing to a light laser gun, it can only burn through half the depth, so the beetle cannot be killed at once.
Shi Hao looked at the direction where the beetle came and had a very bad premonition. Where do beetles come from? Why are beetles more and more numerous? What is the pale red pattern on the beetle (身shēn)? The texture has grown from scratch, it was originally gray-black, and now there is a light red pattern, will it continue to mutate later, such as from light red to red?
These are the unknowns, and the unknown is the most terrifying!
Shi Hao went back to Minsk and asked them to continue their work, and hurried to fill the oxygen cylinders, and at the same time notified the staff on the Earth Fire to fill the oxygen cylinders.
Then he led the Shenglong team, Ilyev and Katerina to follow the trail of the beetle's crawl, and several war pets sniffed the beetle's scent and ran in front with joy, and they followed behind. Tian Sakura and Ilev have switched to heavy laser guns and are steadied (sexual) with a strap crossbody.
After running out for two or three kilometers, the war pet suddenly stopped and shouted "Wangwang" in front of him.
Shi Hao and the others saw that there were about five or six beetles crawling in a row, Shi Hao jumped high and saw a long dragon lined up in the distance, just like ants on the earth, but these ants were a little too big.
Shi Hao and everyone stood by, and then he ran in front of the beetles, trying to attract them away and change their route, but no matter how Shi Hao lured (lured you), those beetles quickly moved along the route of the previous beetles.
In desperation, Shi Hao jumped high and jumped over a few beetles that crawled over him, ready to return to Wang Ping and them, when they landed, the beetles stopped, turned their heads in the direction of Shi Hao's landing, and then crawled over, Shi Hao took a few steps back, and the beetles did not move after Shi Hao landed, and after a while they turned back to their original routes.
Shi Hao looked at it, jumped several times in a row, and found that these beetles were very sensitive to shocks, and the vibrations caused by their running were not enough to attract these beetles, and the vibrations caused by jumping from a high place were stronger.
Shi Hao ordered the others to start (shoot shè) to destroy these beetles, and he kept jumping in front to attract the beetles to change their route, Wang Ping and the ten of them also had a few war pets hunting those beetles on the side, these beetles were very persistent in pursuing Shi Hao, so Shi Hao and they gradually grinded this batch of more than 500 beetles to death, after stopping, Shi Hao felt dizzy, his brain was very tired, and he quickly used a biological power bank to replenish his strength.
Upon examination, half of these beetles (身shēn) (身shēn) were tall with pale red lines, and several (身shēn) had turned bright red in color.
The more they killed these beetles, the more they seemed to be automatically upgraded, and Shi Hao felt that his scalp was a little numb. It's not a long-term solution to jump like this today, and if the number of beetles increases, it won't be easy.
Shi Hao returned to the base with a heavy heart, explained his conjecture to Minsk, and after discussion, they decided to temporarily stop all work to see if the beetles would stop attacking.
In addition, two Mars transporters were deployed, filled with cut Martian stones. When the beetles attack again, prepare to create a vibration to change their course.
The next day, Shi Hao asked the carrier pigeon to equip Minsk with a device that could communicate with the Shenglong team, the kind that could only communicate but could not be located, and told all of them to stay in the cave and not come out.
Then Shi Hao and his group continued to search along yesterday's route, this time about 10 kilometers deeper, only to see Hao Hao ((swing dàng) dàng) ((swing dàng) dàng) The beetle army crawled quickly on the ground, Shi Hao used a telescope to observe, and found that all the beetles this time had red stripes, and the dozens of leaders were all bright red stripes, and there was a sedan chair in the middle, carried by several bright red striped beetles, and a head on the sedan chair was all red, ( The body shēn) is a beetle with bright red stripes, and the body length is almost one person tall.
Shi Hao informed Minsk to arrange for someone to drive the transport vehicle over. They retreated five kilometers to the Martian base, where the transporter was already waiting.
The transport truck followed Shi Hao, and when the beetle arrived, Shi Hao threw the stone high, so that it would be less laborious to create vibration.
I saw that the beetles in front of them accelerated and crawled in the direction of Shi Hao, Wang Ping and the others continued to fire on the side, and more than a dozen beetles were hit in the head and lay down without moving.
At this time, I saw the beetle on the sedan chair screaming fiercely, waving its front legs, and some bright red striped beetles changed their performance yesterday, no longer turning a blind eye to Wang Ping and them, but attacking the ten of them in several ways.
Bright red-striped beetles can barely be killed with heavy laser guns, but sometimes a little miss is not enough, and their war pets will take the opportunity to pounce on them and completely bite the injured beetles that are still wriggling.
The efficiency of killing beetles is decreasing, and yesterday's strategy is also ineffective, Shi Hao saw this and called everyone together, and then began to circle around, wanting to rely on firepower to attract beetles, when they deviated greatly from the beetle's intended attack route, the beetle commander with a bright red head kept screaming of different lengths, waving his front legs from time to time, so a group of beetles chased after Shi Hao, and the other beetles continued to move forward according to the predetermined route.
Shi Hao informed Minsk that everyone in the Mars base should go up to the city wall, and there was going to be a vicious battle to be fought.
Shi Hao and the others retreated in the direction of the base while fighting, and it is estimated that there are more than 1,000 beetles attacking this time, maybe even more. In addition, the evolution ability of the beetle is a bit unexpected, and now that there is a commander, it will definitely not be able to kill them by relying on the twelve of them to fight guerrillas.
After they retreated to the base, they came to the city wall, and Shi Hao asked Black Feather, Wufeng, and Mickey to make a laser cannon each, and these three laser cannons were facing the direction of the beetle's attack.
At this time, the beetle stopped a few hundred meters away from the base wall, and the beetle commander gave an order through the voice, the beetle in front stopped, and the beetle in the back lined up towards the base, gradually forming a square formation, and the beetle commander was in the middle.
Seeing this, Mickey's heart blossomed, and he said through the call channel: "Don't rob me, I'll kill that arrogant red-headed beetle first." ”
Shi Hao gave an order, and the three of Black Feather, Wufeng and Mickey immediately opened fire, and after a shot, three circles appeared in the middle of the square and on the left and right sides, and the circle became a vacuum, and there was not a single beetle left.
After losing command, the surrounding beetles crawled in the direction of the base.
The laser cannon fired again, and the white light of the laser gun continued to point (shoot shè), and the beetle became less and less, and the beetle's attack was blocked.
Without resting, Shi Hao asked people to use a forklift to push all the beetle corpses to a few hundred meters outside the base, blocking the beetle's attack route.
The three laser cannons fired (fired) six times, consuming a lot of energy, and the entire Martian base is powered by a nuclear fission reactor underground, which is difficult to support the continuous attack of the laser cannons, and as for the nuclear fusion reactor shipped, it is not possible to install it in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the beetle's crawling speed is not very fast, about 60 km/h, which is much lower than the travel speed of Lingshan-level and Taishan-level robots.
The war pet is no longer of great use at this time, and can only follow the master (身shēn) to relieve the siege for the master.
Shi Hao asked the carrier pigeon to send a drone to hang in the air to reconnoitre.
Shi Hao thought back to the battle process, and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, he found Minsk and expressed his worries, and he had to prepare to retreat. Minsk also understood the seriousness of the current situation, and he organized everyone to get busy and transport the materials that had just been unloaded to the Earthfire, and after transporting the materials, they transported silica and ore, and then sent everything that could be moved to the underground meteorite cave, and sealed the entrance with stones.
Shi Hao rummaged inside the beetle's corpse for a while, and found the corpse of a beetle commander, packed it in a box, and sent it to the Earthfire.
Five hours after the end of the last attack, the carrier pigeon spotted through the drone that the beetle had been dispatched again, and the tail could not be seen in the black, and there was a beetle commander a few hundred meters away.
Shi Hao's twelve people took the initiative to attack with their war pets, and they planned to fight and retreat while eliminating some of the beetle's power first.
Shi Hao and the others rushed out and started the first encounter eight kilometers away from the base, and the red stripes on the beetle (body shēn) in front of them became wider and brighter, and it became more and more difficult to kill.
In the end, instead of blindly seeking to kill the beetles, they chose mass destruction, mainly hitting their legs, reducing their travel speed and threat.
As the beetles in front of them became slower and slower, the beetles behind made an unexpected move and began to gnaw at the wounded, dead beetles to clear the way, as if there was no concept of detours in their minds.
Shi Hao and the others accelerated their killing speed at this time, waiting for the beetles behind them to gnaw at them.
The laser gun is constantly firing (shooting shè), energy consumption has increased dramatically, the black feather and the windless (shooting shè) are the fastest, and a battery has been replaced.
In this way, Shi Hao killed and wounded, and the beetles gnawed, advancing strangely and slowly.
Suddenly, several beetles mutated and grew short wings and flew up. Shi Hao and the others were taken aback, although the flight speed was not fast, but once there were many flying beetles, they would be more threatened, and even the Earth Fire might be in danger.
Everyone raised their laser guns to shoot the winged beetles first.
After the killing, Shi Hao and the others changed their strategy, retreated back, and told Minsk to quickly use a forklift to push the beetle corpses piled up on the beetle's attack route to the side.
Observed by the drone, beetles are swarming from a distance, and Seok Hao orders everyone to retreat to the fence inside, including Tian Sakura, Ilyev, and Katerina.
Ilev and Katerina saw Shi Hao's (yin) Shen expression (qingqing), and did not disobey and retreated, Tian Ying insisted on not going, and Shi Hao asked Ilev and Katerina to put her back.
In addition, the Earth Fire was notified to take off immediately and hover over the Mars base, the Earth Fire was defined as a transport ship and the first test ship, and it was originally expected that there would be no life on Mars and would not pose any threat to the Earth Fire, so it was not equipped with attack (sexual) weapons.
Minsk asked people to take out spare batteries from the warehouse, Shi Hao loaded one laser gun in each person, and prepared two on it, and everyone in the Shenglong team connected the biological power bank on the backpack to keep them in the best condition at all times.
The beetle soon arrived on the outskirts of the base, and Shi Hao ordered the laser cannon to attack at full capacity, regardless of energy consumption, and to attack the beetle commander first.
In this way, he withstood several waves of beetle attacks, as more and more beetles arrived at the periphery, the beetle commanders had seven or eight, Shi Hao ordered Minsk to put down the mechanism, and more than a dozen square doors were slowly raised under the outer wall, allowing the beetles to crawl inside, and soon the beetles gathered more and more, and all the passages were occupied by beetles, and Minsk closed the mechanism again, and the square doors began to fall, these doors were all made of metal, very thick and heavy, and the beetle powder (body shēn) crushed bones pressed underneath.
When the door closed, he began to throw the oxygen cylinders that opened the valve, and the beetles slowly lay on the ground as if they were drunk.
The beetles killed were less than one-tenth of the beetles that came in the back.
"Captain, those bright red-striped beetles are starting to gnaw at the walls." At this time, Wang Ping shouted loudly.
