Chapter 39 42
Outer space on the Carlo planet, the main ship of the Red Kite
A lieutenant officer was debriefing: "Report to the Chief, the information wave shielding attempt has failed, and all the shielding measures we know have failed to prevent the spread of this information wave. ”
Su Mei swiped her finger on the virtual light projection screen: "Then give up the shielding attempt and go and convey this news to the combat troops." By the way, is the first echelon of attack connected? ”
"That unknown disruptor hasn't found a way to deal with it yet, so it's better to contact the people of the first attack echelon."
Su Mei nodded: "I know, it's hard work, go get busy." ”
"Yes." The lieutenant saluted and turned to leave.
......
As soon as the female lieutenant went down, a second lieutenant walked up to Su Mei and gave a quick military salute: "Report to the chief, the information wave spread in the combat area has been analyzed, this is a kind of ethnic gathering signal sent by the clan leader. ”
"The gathering signal of the clan is the same as we expected. How's the probe satellite prepared? ”
"It is reported that the exploration satellite has completed a planetary scan of the Karlo satellite. According to the information from the planet scan, there is a global movement of organisms on Karlo, and the biological groups involved in the movement are all dummy ant colonies. ”
The lieutenant then pointed to the virtual light projection screen, on which a hologram of Carlo appeared, and hundreds of small red dots were moving on the surface of the planet, each with extremely thin trajectory lines, all pointing to the same place.
The female ensign continued: "Judging by its trajectory, the expected target location of all Dam ant colonies is the combat area of our ship. ”
"And what about the scale?"
"The size is expected to be between 700 million and 1 billion."
"What about arrival time?"
"The fastest will arrive in 22 minutes, and the peak number is expected to reach in 43 minutes."
"Release the reconnaissance aircraft to closely monitor the movement of the dum ant colony."
"Yes."
......
Su Mei sorted out her military uniform, walked straight to the command platform and started the ship's broadcast: "I am Su Mei, the commander of the Red Kite Fleet, and I now order with the authority of the Commander of the Red Kite Fleet: The Red Kite Fleet will enter the A-level combat state from this moment on." ”
This command is transmitted synchronously to every ship in the fleet via an internal communication system.
On the command platform of the main ship, Su Mei continued to issue orders: "The direction of the main ship of the Red Kite is changed, and the position is moved: 36°40′ north latitude, 117°00′ east longitude." Move to a hundred meters above the dust cloud at the target location. ”
"Convey the latest news to the commander of the combat unit, and continue to contact the first attack echelon, and be sure to convey this news to them."
"Keep ten frigates to protect the main ship, and the rest of the ships go to strengthen the defense line on the periphery of the island."
"Load the Dam ant gene virus onto a cluster armor-piercing bomb."
"Antiproton energy cannon energy cannon energy storage preparation."
Su Mei issued orders one after another in an orderly manner, and her serious appearance was like that of her usual smile.
......
Anthill war zone on the ground
Red Kite's combat armored unit, with the cooperation of the mechanized unit, has killed more than 1.1 million dum ants since the beginning of the operation, and the number is still increasing.
Despite the staggering number of dummy ants, there is still a steady stream of dummy ants pouring out of the nest.
However, at this time, the initiative of the battlefield has been firmly held by the red kite, and although the dummy ants continue to appear, the only way waiting for them is death.
After this period of running-in, coupled with the cooperation of the second-echelon seniors and the mechanical troops, Bai Guo's sniping efficiency has been greatly improved, from one shot per minute at the beginning to three to four shots per minute now, and her sniper hit rate has reached more than 92%.
"Didi."
An Ran's excited voice came from the built-in communicator of the armored helmet: "Guoguo, Guoguo." How many dummy ants have you killed? ”
Bai Guo had been concentrating on sniping just now and didn't pay attention to this, and as soon as An Ran asked, she glanced at the sniper count in the combat data in the lower right corner of the HUD pupil display.
"Ranran, I'm 279..."
Bai Guo said, the movement of his hand did not stop, and the trigger was pulled.
"Bang" a gunshot rang out
"Now it's 280. Ranran, what about you? ”
"Ah~, Guoguo, I'm only 261. No, I'm going to do it. An Ran stopped talking after speaking.
A gentle smile appeared on Bai Guo's face under the helmet, An Ran's talent is stronger than her, but An Ran has a lively temperament, and it is difficult to do things quietly for a long time. But as long as An Ran sharpens her temperament, she will be better than her.
"Ranran, you have to come on."
After Bai Guo silently cheered for An Ran in his heart, he concentrated on the battle again.
......
The lower area of the underground anthill
Outside a huge room was a mountain of dummy ant corpses, and on the periphery, more living dummy ants gathered around here to rush in, but there were so many dead dummy ant corpses that the passage was completely blocked, so they could only wave their palate impotence outside.
Compared to the crowded outside, the room is much more empty.
The members of the first assault team formed a circle, with Dala and Fire Kite standing in the middle, and a large, snow-white dummy ant corpse crept on a stone platform next to them.
Dala was removing a plum-sized transparent spar from the white dummy ant's head, and there was a white thread in the spar, and this white thread was constantly changing, as if it had life.
Dala took out a small box and put the white line crystal into it, dozens of scan lines swept over it, and with a soft "drop", the small box lit up with a green light.
"Mission One objective has been obtained."
After Dala put the white hedron away, he asked, "What about the second target?" ”
"The location of the second target remains the same."
At this time, the fire kite was using the physical sword to play with the corpse of the white dummy ant: "Captain, you see, this is a female ant, this should be the queen ant." ”
Dala turned slightly: "Judging from the degree of protection of the ant colony, it should be impossible for the queen ant to be wrong." ”
"By the way, Captain, did you think this queen ant behaved a little strangely during the battle just now?"
"Indeed, it behaves very differently from the average dummy ant, unlike a low-class savage creature. Instead, it has the feeling of being a sapient being. ”
"Captain, do you think this has something to do with that stone? The Coalition had waged a war over such a small stone, and had strictly ordered that weapons of mass destruction should not be used to avoid destroying the stone, which must have been strange. ”
Dala raised his hand and stopped: "Okay, we are soldiers, we just need to complete the task, we don't need to know too much." Now the rest of the fleet is covering for us. If it drags on for a long time, it is inevitable that something uncontrollable will happen. There is only one thing we have to do next, and that is to get the second mission objective as soon as possible, complete the mission and end this battle. ”
"Yes, Captain."
......
After the ark passed through a secluded and narrow cave, Bai Qi's voice sounded in his head: "There is an enemy ahead, sneak." ”
"Okay."
The ark changed its posture, and the already subtle sound of walking disappeared completely.
This is a stealth technique taught by Bai Qi when he was practicing in the virtual world, and he reduces or eliminates the sound he makes when walking by adjusting his breathing, pace, and walking posture.
Stealth can be very useful in operations that require quietness, such as assassination, covert retreat, stealth combat, etc......
When the ark sneaked around a corner, he looked at it and saw a huge room with several dummy ants lying on their stomachs, they were very different from the ones he had seen before, and each of them was different.
At this time, they are lying quietly on their stomachs, as if they are sleeping.
For this God-given opportunity, the Ark decided to ..... Quietly bypass.
These guys' equipment doesn't know how to mess with at first glance, and they're not targets anyway, so there's no need to force them.
The ark stalked silently, as it looked like it was about to pass through the room.
As soon as his raised foot landed, the moment his foot stepped on the ground, he felt that something was wrong, and the touch of this ground was wrong.
This... It's not the ground, it's ?!
