Chapter 8: The Cage
"Captain, you are really unlucky", Heipi came to the two of them at some point, and said angrily, "In our hometown, it is the most taboo to say death, and we generally call death burned."
Wen Ke almost laughed out loud when he heard it, what kind of custom is this, he died in battle, could it be that so-and-so was unfortunately burned on the battlefield? Drowned, could it be said that so-and-so unfortunately burned in swimming?
"Go, go", Peaches glanced at her white and black skin, "don't use your superstitions to confuse us".
"I didn't bewitch you", Blackskin said blankly, "I'm just saying that you should say that the Brotherhood will burn first on the battlefield, so it's more tactful."
"Damn", Wenk didn't expect this guy to be so straightforward, he stretched out his thumb, and he 'liked' with a black face, "You are really comforting."
"Thank you".
Looking at the sincere smile of the black skin, Wen Ke almost lost his breath, the brain circuit of this dog clan is simply impossible to measure with common sense.
"Blackskin, you stupid dog, people aren't praising you", a voice similar to a parrot speaking, Wen Ke heard the voice, it turned out to be a turtle wind, and he also came over at this time.
"You stupid turtle, you're obviously praising me", Heipi replied not to be outdone, "Are you jealous of me, every time people praise me, they say that others scold me."
“... You deserve to be scolded".
"You're jealous."
While the two were arguing, the Black Deep Forest Command sent a message, "All the landing troops in Ling Duxing are requested to go to the periphery of the South Pole base and wait for the next instructions."
As soon as the words fell, the transport plane shook violently, and Wen Ke fell defenselessly and ate, and the others were not comfortable, and they all lay on the ground.
"It's pitch black, what's the situation?" , Momoko asked, getting up.
"Report, just now a landing ship of our army was destroyed while entering the atmosphere"!
"How is that possible?" Momoko muttered, "Isn't the main force of the fleet arriving?" ”。
"Captain"! Pitch Black suddenly panicked, "The probe shows that the enemy's warship has re-arrived at Lingdu Star, and they are likely to destroy this planet, what should we do now"?
"Wow, I'm going to bet on the resurrection".
"I think we should get out of here first, after all, planetary explosions are no joke."
"Captain Yuan, there is a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not, as the saying goes, stay in the green mountains..."
For a while, everyone was gossiping, making the whole transport plane noisy.
"Shut up"! Momoko let out a loud shout and said, "Ask the command first."
"Command, Command, this is the fourth squad, please inform me of the next mission."
"Fourth Squad, please continue as originally ordered."
After saying that, the command headquarters cut off contact, and the four teams stared at each other with wide eyes.
"Okay", Momoko clapped her hands and said, "Let's re-equip the armor first, anyway, the military order is like a mountain, and the battle death may be resurrected, and the deserter will die, come, Brother Wenke, send some energy to everyone."
After Venk distributed the energy, everyone was on standby in full gear on the transport plane, ready to attack or retreat at any time.
On the other side, in space, the N5 star system where Ling Duxing is located has gathered at least 50,000 warships of various types on both sides at this time.
Despite this, in the vast space of space, these warships are not lined up in piles like Earth movies, but distributed on a hundredth-light-year front, each warship is separated by an average of millions of kilometers, of course, as the war progresses, the two sides slowly fight from a long distance attack into a melee.
If you look at it from a distance, you can see that there are constantly flashing points of light, which are the last marks left in the universe by the battleships that have been hit by the opponent.
Both sides did not retreat because of huge losses, and continued to invest reinforcements through space leaps, because this battle is extremely important to both sides, and the galaxy needs to take a safe fleet transit station in Andromeda, once it is taken, the galaxy can use this as the center point and slowly occupy the surrounding galaxies.
For the Andromeda Glorious Empire, if the Galactic Empire occupies this place, it will mean a defeat, because the ethnic cleansing and the destruction of the invading fleet have caused the Glorious Empire itself to be greatly damaged, and they need too much time to reassemble and regain their strength.
Back to Ling Duxing's side, at this time, everyone was still guarding the periphery of the South Pole, and the enemy at the South Pole was also honestly guarding there, and both sides had no intention of attacking each other, and for a while, the center of the battlefield became the safest place.
At this boring moment, Momoko asked again, "Brother Wenke, I haven't asked you yet, why did you join the army?"
"Hmm....", Wen Ke thought for a while and made up, "What else can I do to serve the motherland, no, serve Zu Xingbei."
“.. It's so simple", Momoko was a little unconvinced, but she didn't continue to ask.
Suddenly, the Armor system sounded an alarm, "Warning! Warn! The enemy's space blockade system has been successfully deployed"!
"What"! Everyone was shocked, how could there be a transport plane that could sneak into the South Pole under their noses, could it be the enemy's new technology?
"Are you sure it was the South Pole that carried out the deployment"? Momoko immediately asked.
"It is being confirmed, but according to the scientific and technological progress of both sides, except for the simultaneous deployment of blockers at the north and south poles, it is impossible to establish a space blockade, and the confirmation is completed, it is indeed a blocker deployed at the South Pole."
At this time, an order also came from the headquarters, "All troops in Lingdu Star please immediately destroy the blockade at the South Pole."
"Roger, Fourth Squad ready to strike".
With that, Momoko leaped through the fuselage, followed by the others, and only Venk, urged by the armor system, reluctantly left the transport plane.
Familiar clouds, familiar continents, just like the Earth, the South Pole here is also a white landscape, but this time the landing is more dangerous.
Halfway down, the fourth squad encountered the enemy's unmanned fighter group, and the two sides fought fiercely in the air, but fortunately, the number of enemy planes was far less than the previous large group, and everyone soon landed on the snow without danger.
But before Venk could breathe a sigh, the ground shook, and the snow not far away suddenly bulged, and a spider-like machine emerged from the ground and quickly pounced on him.
The thing was a building tall, and all eight legs shimmered blue, and Venk stood still, not because he was courageous, but because he was stupid.
"Get out of the way"! Momoko let out a loud shout and swung several lashes of light at the mechanical spider.
The red sword light was all blocked by the protective shield on the mechanical spider's body, and it did not cause any damage, but it also delayed it for a short time, and at the same time, the others also opened fire on the mechanical spider, and for a while, the mechanical spider became brilliant, like a Christmas tree full of light bulbs.
At this moment, Venk finally came to his senses, and he hurried to the side, and the mechanical spider seemed to recognize him, ignoring the others, and chased after him.
"Oh my mother, Brother Crow, hurry, where are you going"?
"Uncle Wu, run to the sky, this guy can't fly very high."
"Good".
As he spoke, Wenke ran towards the sky, but the mechanical spider was already less than a hundred meters away from him, and three legs were already heading towards Wenkeza.
At this critical moment, the armor system began to evade urgently, and made a sharp turn, dodging a leg, and after the spider leg hit the air, it pierced a big hole in the ground.
Then, by means of emergency evasion, Wink managed to dodge the second leg again, but because of the short delay, the mechanical spider narrowed the distance between the two sides.
Just as the armor system was about to evade it for the third time, a bright blue light flashed from the head of the mechanical spider and hit Venk, and the armor system reacted instantly, and immediately dodged downward.
The blue beam struck into the air, but the mechanical spider's third leg slammed into Venk's chest, and before he could react, he was already crushed to the ground.
The others rushed to the rescue, firing more fire at the mechanical spider, and the already solid shield was a little thinner, but it still pressed Venk with its legs, showing no sign of letting him go.
Soon, Venk saw his defenses drop at a rate visible to the naked eye, and within two minutes, his chest was literally crushed into a meatloaf.
"Brother Raven, what now?" Venk was already in a cold sweat at this time, this was the first time he had faced death up close, and without resistance.
"Because of the blockade of space, your soul cannot be transmitted to the central system for resurrection, brother, it looks like you're going to burn".
"Burn your uncle, now is not the time to joke", Wenk said angrily.
"Don't be angry, I'm going to make a big move."
As he spoke, Venk saw a large black shadow appear in the sky, it was a destroyed enemy ship, only half of the whole hull was left, and it was still billowing smoke.
The enemy ship spun in free fall, and soon disappeared before Venk's eyes, and then another enemy ship appeared in the sky, still in flames, but this one was even worse, with only a third of the hull left.
Next, one, two .... Enemy combat ships kept falling from the sky.
Coincidentally, one of them happened to smash on the mechanical spider, and the mechanical spider's already thin protective shield disappeared in an instant, and the attacks of Peach and the others all hit its iron body at this time.
The mechanical spider couldn't withstand such a blow, so he didn't care about Venk, and ran with his legs, and after losing two legs, he finally burrowed back into the ground.
"Brother Wenke, it's okay", Momoko hurriedly stepped forward to check Wenke's status.
"It's okay", Wenk stood up and waved his hand, but after glancing at the remaining 5% defense, he immediately shouted, "Something, something, I'm going to die, oops, I don't want to die yet."
"Looks like it's okay", Momoko breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was still alive.
