Chapter 44: All the Way West

The Iron Helmet followed a pre-calculated course and orbited the wild star K5 at a state slightly higher than the first cosmic velocity, and the centrifugal force balanced the gravitational pull of K5, which was slightly higher than that of the Earth star, and entered the established orbit like a satellite.

Three small interstellar landing ships detached from the Iron Helmet and crashed towards the surface of Savage Star K5. Passing through a relatively dense atmosphere, finally landed in the tactical area K5-RY02.

The government of the Komia Star Domain has long confirmed the mission commission this time - to hunt the high-risk creatures in the three tactical areas of K5-RY01, 02, and 03 - giant phalanx apes.

K5ry02 was chosen because it was closer to the eastern edge than the other two tactical areas, and if the giant fangs were too ferocious, they would not be attacked on their backs.

Qin Haocang has been cautious and cautious when conducting tactical deductions, and has designed a retreat step in advance.

The three interstellar landing ships landed in a relatively flat low-lying valley, and the men of the Iron Helmet Regiment quickly concealed them with the help of terrain, floating soil and military shelter cloth.

Without staying here for much, 2 land tanks emerged from each interstellar landing ship, heading westward, progressively towards the depths of K5ry02.

According to the radar scanning results and the monitoring of the star area network, everyone is still relatively clear about the situation they are in, and the three areas of K5-ry01, 02, and 03 are not only dangerous giant fangs, but also filled with hundreds of mercenaries and pirates of different forces, large or small.

Although it can be guessed that everyone has accepted similar commissions, no one knows what kind of thoughts these guys have and what kind of style they have, so in addition to the giant phalanx ape, the Iron Helmet must also be careful to watch out for these pirates and mercenaries.

......

......

The first four of the six Marine Combat Vehicles, each carrying an L18 military mech painted in jungle camouflage, a mechmen, and 12 men from the Iron Helmet Pirate Regiment. Of course, these men are not interstellar pirates now, they have adapted well to their identity, the mercenaries of the Iron Helmet Regiment!

The latter two vehicles carried the mechanics, the medical team and the wreckage of four mechs used as spare parts. Naturally, Tang Yun was also arranged here, so Qin Shuiyan was bound to stare at him here, and Geng Lin threw Lei Zi over because he was not worried about Qin Shuiyan.

"What a bird place, it's hot!"

Rayson snatched his Gatling gun out of the arsenal and double-checked to see if his treasure had been scratched on the long journey. Although he cursed the hot and humid weather in his mouth, the excitement that could not be concealed was all written on his face.

How can there be daylight on K388? Looking at the sun's rays from the dense woods through the bulletproof observation window of the land tank, smelling the unique scent of grass in the wetland, not only thunder, but also none of the mercenaries of the entire Iron Helmet Regiment did not want to hurry out of the vehicle.

Of course, don't think that these guys look like a bunch of ruffians when they relax, they are really unorganized and undisciplined. On the contrary, they are the real elite in their bones, federal veterans.

No matter how excited they were, no one would really run out of such a dangerous place, not to mention that Geng Lin was in command of the entire convoy in the second car.

Glancing at the honest Tang Yun, Lei Zi asked puzzledly, "Shui Yan, what's the use of you kidnapping this stupid boy who can't even shoot a gun." When Qin Tou'er finds out that he didn't stay in the Iron Helmet, he will definitely not be able to spare you. ”

Qin Shuiyan carefully inserted the extremely sharpened slender military thorn into the scabbard of the side gang of the military boots, and glared at Tang Yun fiercely, "The entire Iron Helmet Regiment has been deceived by this villain, this kid is very problematic, if I don't keep an eye on it, he may not be able to make a big mess on the Iron Helmet!" ”

Tang Yun shrugged his shoulders, still looking harmless to humans and animals, he didn't bother to pay attention to Qin Shuiyan, seeing that the land chariot was running more steadily, he directly got up and climbed onto the wreckage of the mecha covered by the military cloth, and looked at this and that, confirming in his heart the Shadow Nightmare machine repair information he had seen before.

These wrecks are only used as spare parts, and they are not very important, Qin Shuiyan naturally does not want to talk nonsense with Tang Yun, so he simply lets him tinker with them alone.

In Tang Yun's heart, it didn't matter whether he stayed in the Iron Helmet or followed Qin Shuiyan. Although it is safe on the Iron Helmet, he definitely has no chance to escape, and although it is dangerous to follow Qin Shuiyan out on a mission, he may be able to meet the opportunity to escape.

Really made him feel very lucky, thank God that Qin Shuiyan actually arranged him in this land chariot that hoarded the wreckage of the mecha, and confirmed in his heart that the mechanical repair course he had learned was secondary, the key was that he and Sibo had already completed the sketch of the charging pool of the light energy engine, and now all they needed was to measure the data in detail and collect the available components.

Tang Yun looked over and over from pile of wreckage, paying special attention to the materials of the light energy engine part, keeping in mind those parts that might be used, and just waiting for the opportunity to "smooth" two pieces into his pocket.

......

......

It seems that this mission is not very difficult, the convoy of 6 land chariots has traveled for most of the day, and the so-called giant fangs have not been seen, but many birds and beasts that are not dangerous have been frightened.

Geng Lin, who was sitting in the second marine chariot of the convoy, silently looked at the calm outside the window, and his brows became more and more wrinkled. How could the primeval forest of this Savage Star be so peaceful? Is this normal? If all the Savage Stars are like this, then what are they called? Just call it a paradise.

Whether it is a big fight or a small fight, Geng Lin is a veteran who has participated in countless battles, and he has an instinctive intuition about danger.

Seeing the sun set, the Iron Helmet Regiment stopped its footsteps and set up camp beside a small river.

The 12 members of the reconnaissance team of car No. 1 quickly infiltrated the nearby jungle and acted as scouts for the Iron Helmet Regiment, where they had to search for danger or anomalies within a radius of 5 kilometers in the shortest possible time.

The soldiers of the No. 2 car also acted quickly, centering on the camp tent and setting up a small area of security surveillance. The soldiers of the 3rd and 4th vehicles began to reorganize their equipment, cooperate with the engineering team to dig trenches, and build improvised fortifications.

Everyone is busy, occasionally a few idle people follow Lei Zi to hunt, hunting several different kinds of local beasts back to improve the food for everyone is also a very important job, in Geng Lin's mouth, this is called stabilizing the morale of the army and boosting morale.

......

......

Although the alien creatures are very different from those on the planet, they are not too bizarre.

This time, Reiko brought back small animals that resembled rabbits, as well as small beasts that resembled deer-shaped. Throw it to the medical team and ask them to take it for a sample to see if it is edible.

It should have been an extremely exciting pleasure for the poor ghosts of the iron helmets to finally be able to eat wild game, but the men who gathered around saw Leizi's extremely gloomy face.

After taking care of the game, Lei Zi came to car No. 2, shook the thing wrapped in a military cloth in his hand to the ground, and said nothing.

A severed arm wearing a powered exoskeleton rolled down on the wet ground, with no bullet holes or regular scars on the severed arm, and no scorching wounds. It's just a mess of flesh and blood, not like the traces left by human hot and cold weapons.

The sun had long since set behind the dense woods, and warm red beams were faintly shining, and warm dappled shadows were everywhere on the damp grass.

Lei Zi looked up at the red sunset in the sky, and asked in a low voice, "Old Geng, is it too late to set up camp in another place?" ”

"The sun is about to set, and it's even less safe when it's dark." Geng Lin shook his head, "I just said that the calm on this road was excessive, and sure enough, ......"

"Did the giant phalanx do it?" Qin Shuiyan raised his foot and kicked the broken arm, and poked the wound with the military thorn in his hand. There were obvious signs of tooth tearing on the wound, and the smell of blood was full.

Tang Yun looked at Qin Shuiyan, who was studying the broken arm, and felt a chill in his heart, the female devil is the female devil, and a little girl's family is immune to corpses and everything to this extent......

Looking around, he didn't find anything abnormal, and subconsciously touched the mercenary's waist bag, thinking of the ultra-low frequency electric field life radar on the six-pupil mask, Tang Yun felt a lot more at ease.
