Chapter 116: Evolution

Outside the main base, two more buildings have risen from the ground. These two buildings are similar to the main base, with remote-controlled gun towers and individual positions on top, and a new production base below the base. No matter which direction the enemy attacks from, except for a few dead ends, they will face the firepower of all three bases at the same time.

In the middle of the three sites is an open-air material storage area, where raw materials that have undergone primary treatment are stacked and stored in preparation for the next round of production.

There are more than 100 remote control gun towers in the main base, and 50 remote control gun towers have been built in each of the two sub-bases, and the new Pirate Flag warriors are quickly learning the use of remote control gun towers, they are all elite warriors, and they are very fast to master.

Planet 4 has a day cycle of more than 90 hours, and due to storm clouds, it has good visibility during the day for about 70 hours and nearly 20 hours at night. With each planetary day, Base 2 will change significantly.

Under the near-perfect planning, the production capacity and firepower of Base 2 are increasing exponentially. Everyone was working day and night, and the atmosphere was getting heavier. Through the mouths of the lancer veterans, the pirate flag warriors all understood the cruelty and horror of the beast tide, and no one knew how big the beast tide would be next time.

Everyone is working hard, no one talks about enjoyment, and no one talks about past grievances. The contradiction between the two legions, in the final analysis, is the contradiction between the upper echelons and the families behind the scenes, and it has little to do with these soldiers who are fighting bloodily on the front line. All they think about now is how to survive.

After the initial shock and freshness, Hathaway also put away the girl's jumping mood. Although she is not yet 20 years old, she has already experienced many wars. At a very young age, she sat beside her fathers and watched many battles as a spectator. Up to now, she has experienced almost all types of wars, and some of them have been personally commanded.

It's just that the battle against the War Beast Legion is still a new field, and no one has good experience, and some of the existing experience has been exchanged for the sacrifice of countless warriors. So she didn't dare to take it lightly, after all, the tactics and techniques of humans are constantly changing, and the war beasts seem to be constantly changing. Every once in a while, they will have a new tactic, or a new war beast will appear.

In the face of this situation, the best coping strategy is to infinitely strengthen the firepower, which is exactly what Chu Jungui has been doing.

Looking at the gun towers rising from the ground and the gradually strengthening individual positions, Hathaway's heart became more and more stable, and she was not so worried about the unknown beast tide.

In the Shadow Fortress, Joseph and William looked at the battle report in their hands and felt extremely headaches.

William shook the battle report in his hand and said, "This is trouble." ”

"It doesn't have to be okay. Maybe it's just that the interference is relatively strong, and the communication is not connected for a while. ”

William smiled bitterly, "Do you believe this sentence yourself?"

Joseph sighed.

"At least within the distance of the planet's orbit, at least emergency information can still be transmitted," William said. I don't believe they only brought one set of communication equipment, so the equipment can be troubleshooting. And let's not forget, another Pirate-flagged landing ship has successfully landed and set up a temporary base. ”

Joseph spread his hands and sighed, "I really don't know what to say." There are so many places that are not chosen, why did you choose to land on the heads of those two guys? If only we had reported this matter in the first place? ”

William looked at him calmly.

Joseph raised his hand in surrender and said, "Okay, okay, I know, that's a joint decision between you and me." Alas, reporting to Roland is a dead end. But what now?"

"We don't know exactly what's going on over there, but we'll have to go over there anyway and figure out Hathaway's current condition. If she's still alive, bring her back. ”

"I don't want an extra bunch of pirate flags in the base. Joseph muttered.

"But I don't want to go back and be called to a hearing in Parliament to justify why we didn't go to the rescue today," William said. ”

Joseph shrugged his shoulders, turned on the communication channel, and ordered: "Prepare my and William's mechs, and prepare to set off in two hours, a journey of 1060 kilometers." ”

"What configuration is needed, General?"

"Search and rescue and fight. ”

"Yes, General. ”

Closing the communication channel, Joseph appeared preoccupied and silent.

"What's the matter? I know you don't have a good relationship with Hathaway, but at least here, we'll have to deal with the damn beasts together. ”

Joseph said slowly, "I have no objection to saving her. But have you ever thought about how long it has been since we've encountered a big beast tide?"

"Not long ago, didn't we just wipe out 2 B-rank beast tides? They still want to assemble first and then sneak attack, ha! The ancient tactics of the Cold Weapon Era. If it weren't for the Cambrian, we would have been busy these days, and the casualties would not have been small. It seems that those nerds in research institutions are not useless. William said as he straightened out his gear.

"Two B-Classes are really not small, and we've been exposed to attacks of this magnitude in the past. However, the beast tide of this size has been going on for quite some time. ”

William's face turned solemn and said, "You mean ......"

"I have a gut feeling that the beast tide is almost ready to complete its upgrade. ”

William frowned and said, "No matter what, we have to save Hathaway." Even if it comes at the cost of the destruction of the Shadow Keep, it must be. ”

Joseph sighed, put on his helmet, and walked out of the command hall with William.

A long trumpet sounded in the shadow fortress, and the chariot troops assembled in the square inside the fortress drove out of the fortress one by one, turning into a flaming dragon in the night, and driving into the distance.

Under the cover of night, a few small inconspicuous black dots flew close to the clouds, hovering over the convoy for several weeks, and shot into the distance like arrows.

They made their way through the mountains and valleys and landed in front of the mysterious black shadow.

The shadow moved a few eyes upward, its gaze fixed on the courier who had just returned. Its gaze appears to be a channel of information, and the image of the shadow fortress changes, showing the chariot troops leaving the fortress.

The black shadow did not move, and dozens of eyes on its body moved together, and their gaze lit up a corner of the valley.

A few messengers turned to look. It was an open space, but now there was a dark shadow. It was almost exactly the same as the black shadow in the middle of the valley, but it was only one-tenth the size of the latter, and it had less than ten eyes on its body, all of which moved towards the middle of the valley at this moment, responding to the message of the big black shadow.

"Base...... Or is it a convoy?" asked the Big Black Shadow.

The eyes of the small group of black shadows all fell on the convoy.

"For ...... What?"

A few glances from a small black shadow shot into the sky, and said in a muffled voice, "Above...... There are more. Let them ...... Come down ......."
