"I'm close to the target and I need a landing point to slow down. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Corporal "Albatross" said the driver to the walkie-talkie, while flipping a few knobs on the dashboard in front of him.

"It's scanning the target, and you're going to have the results right away." The fleet commander stood on the bridge of the flagship and said, while a crew member next to him was turning on the ship's high-frequency scanning system to scan a gray battleship surrounded by two fleets, and the results were available in a short time.

"I've found the landing spot, and I'll send you the scanned images." The commander waved his hand to the crew on the side, and the crew marked the results of the previous scan and sent them to the "albatross". The corporal looked at the landing, then compared it with the huge battleship not far away, and flew towards a hatch on the side, which was not covered by anything, neither a identifying energy shield nor a hatch, it was a cabin exposed in a vacuum, but because its hatch had an energy film that could be penetrated at will, it was filled with oxygen inside, and the air pressure was stable, but this information was not known to any human before the "albatross" landed inside. With no fixed defensive ray weapons nearby, the tarmac-like chamber looks like a great landing spot at first glance. But the more harmless it seems, the more terrifying it is. The corporal was well aware of this, and did not rashly slow down to enter the landing procedure, but first circled around the hatch, and then fired two miniature short-range airborne missiles into it to eliminate the threat, and then reassuringly turned on the deceleration engine and stopped the "albatross" inside.

The hatch at the tail of the aircraft opened, and the twelve motorized infantrymen who had been neatly lined up rushed out, and according to the training, as soon as they left the "albatross", they scattered to both sides in small groups, each lined up in a tight defensive shape, and all of them loaded their rifles, and connected the rifles to the holographic helmet through the contacts on the grip, and presented the rifle's crosshair on the mask in the holographic helmet.

"Sergeant Fred went to the right with the second squad, and I went to the left with the first squad." The leader was called Second Lieutenant Tian Yi while giving orders to the team over the radio while gesturing tactical sign language with his hands.

The sergeant nodded in understanding, then waved his hand to the five motorized infantrymen behind him, and at the same time the first one got up and marched to the right side of the empty cabin, the motorized infantry got up one after another, and the six men formed a vertical column, two people were responsible for the guard on the right side of the line, two people were responsible for the guard on the left side of the line, the leading sergeant was responsible for the front of the line, and the last motorized infantry was responsible for the rear guard of the line. With perfect formation and well-trained motorized infantry, such a six-man squad is enough for any contingency, and unless a howitzer fired from a kilometer is in the middle of a queue or an atomic bombardment, such a platooning cannot be suddenly wiped out.

Seeing this kind of thing take away the five motorized infantry of the second squad, the second lieutenant took a deep breath, then looked up and looked ahead of him.

"Keep up with me." After speaking, Tian Yi got up, the cat's waist moved forward, the muzzle of the rifle pointed straight ahead, in the absence of a shield, if a squad faces the enemy head-on, the firepower will definitely be concentrated on the leader, so the leader must be vigilant, no matter what unexpected situation occurs, the commander must be the first to respond, so that the commander can most effectively play the combat effectiveness of the six-person class.

Tian Yi leaned against the metal wall, and waved his hand backwards at the same time, signaling that the five motorized infantry behind him were also enough to lean against the wall, and then Tian Yi made a series of gestures to the two people behind him, waiting for the two of them to open the door, and he was the first to enter after opening the door, and the people behind followed closely.

Two motorized infantry immediately stepped forward, one left and one right, standing at the door, while Tian Yi stood facing the door with a rifle, the muzzle of the loaded rifle pointed directly at the center of the door, waiting for the motorized infantry to shoot the button to open the door.

The motorized infantry in charge of opening the door counted the thumbs to Tian Yi, indicating that it was ready, and then waved his hand to the round button at the back of his waist and slapped it, the door trembled slightly, and then the lock in the middle began to rotate, the outer circle rotated clockwise, and the inner circle rotated counterclockwise, and when the two circles set together stopped rotating, the door lock had been unlocked. Tian Yi froze his mind, his left hand holding the rifle pinched the rifle tightly, and the two feet that had already stood firmly stepped on it again to make sure that he had stood firmly.

They began to slide, first slow and then fast, and the scene behind the door also appeared in front of Tian Yi's eyes with the opening of the airtight hatch, but he didn't have much time to appreciate it carefully, in fact, the layout inside is still very beautiful, behind the door is a lower passage, and there is no top but directly communicates with the upper passage, the upper floor is the passage on the left and right, two handrails made of unknown metal block the edges of the passage on both sides, and there are two short bridges connecting the left and right passages on this passage in front of Tian Yi.

After rushing through the door quickly, Tian Yi just entered and encountered the pilgrim troops waiting on the other side of the door, sporadic blue-purple plasma energy bombs, but because of the slow flight speed, Tian Yi easily dodged the attacks of these energy bombs, pressed his body tightly against the walls on both sides, stabilized his body, and quickly searched for the location of the enemy in the passage.

There are two on the right side of the upper level, one on the first bridge, and the left side of the channel is unknown because Tian Yi is overhead. There was no time to hesitate, immediately picked up the rifle and pulled the trigger, and directly saw the crosshairs to make shooting easy, and after pulling the trigger, the several bullets fired were all concentrated on the helmet mask of the pilgrim on the bridge, and the lead core kinetic energy bullet hit the debris of the reflective mask made of position material, and purple blood splattered out of the gun hole, and the pilgrim who was hit let go of his hands, the plasma rifle in his hand fell to the ground, and his body fell softly and fell off the bridge.

Tian Yi killed a pilgrim, and a motorized infantry who came in later aimed at the two pilgrims on the right side of the upper floor for a burst of strafing, blood mist exploded on the passage, and the two pilgrims seemed to tap dance again, their bodies kept trembling, until the motorized infantry shot all the bullets in the magazine before falling softly, and a large amount of blood flowed down the wall of the passage.

"Be careful to save bullets!" Tian Yi reminded, "Do you see how many of them are on my head?" ”

"There's one, sir." The motorized infantryman leaned heavily beside Tian Yi, withdrew the empty magazine, pulled out a magazine filled with bullets from the combat magazine box and pushed it into the gun, pulling the bolt, "I'll kill him next one." ”

As soon as the words fell, the third motorized infantry rushed in from outside the door, and at a glance he saw the two people leaning on the wall on the right, and immediately ran to Tian Yi's side with a gun to line up, but without waiting for Tian Yi's warning, the pilgrims on the right wall opened fire. The blue-purple plasma energy bombs overwhelmingly attacked the third motorized infantryman, without a trace of room to dodge, almost in an instant, several plasma energy bombs fell on the motorized infantryman's body, first burning through the light armor draped on the body, and then the original white space combat suit was burned by the plasma high energy, plus the kinetic energy on the energy sheet, the motorized infantry was immediately overturned to the ground, and the self-plastic substance in the space combat suit turned from jelly-like to liquid, flowing out of the space combat suit.

"Go help him!" Tian Yi shouted, retreated from the motorized infantry beside him, then pulled out a fragmentation grenade from his body, held the upper and lower sections and twisted it hard, and then threw it towards the upper right passage on his head, and then shouted, "Be careful of grenades!" ”

Tian Yi squatted down on the spot, while the motorized infantryman who had been pushed out by him before pulled his wounded companion back and leaned against the wall tightly. The motorized infantrymen who were waiting outside the door to enter at any time stopped when they heard a shout over the walkie-talkie, and pressed against the wall behind them, ready to meet the impact of the explosion. The fragmentation grenade that had been thrown flashed red dots of light, and the heavily armed pilgrim next to him did not recognize the object, and cautiously took a few steps back, clutching the plasma rifle in his hand, the muzzle of which was pointed at the unknown object.

Suddenly, the flickering red point of light stopped flickering, but became a state of everlasting light, followed by a violent explosion, and the forty diamond-shaped iron pieces inside flew out in all directions, and the pilgrim who was only two meters away from this fragmentation grenade was naturally pierced by the fragments. There is no concrete structure around, so there is no smoke or dust, just white smoke from the explosion of gunpowder.

"It's all right!" When the aftermath of the explosion passed, Tian Yi was the first to stand up and shouted into the walkie-talkie.

"It's alright, sir." One of the motorized infantrymen replied, and then the three motorized infantrymen waiting outside the door rushed in and formed a tightly guarded formation, and the three of them lined up in a row, covering the passage and charging forward with all their guns. Tian Yi walked over to the motorized infantry who had been hit and squatted down.

"How?"

"I'm fine, sir, it's just that my clothes are burned." The motorized infantry leaned against the wall, took off his helmet, and looked at Tian Yi on the side. The blackened wound could not be healed, and the high-energy plasma destroyed the self-healing ability of this part of the skin and muscles, although the motorized infantryman had already injected him with morphine and sprayed it with self-healing foam, but he still needed a transplant to fully recover, and the broken blood vessels were also his excessive blood loss, as evidenced by the pale face and bloodless lips.

"Get some rest." Tian Yi patted him on the shoulder, and then took out two fragmentation grenades from his body and put them beside him, "I'll give you a mission, guard this door, we have to evacuate from here, understand, private?" ”

"Yes, sir." The private held the two grenades handed by Tian Yi tightly, and also held his hands tightly. It's a code word, meaning that your injuries are too bad to be healed on the battlefield, that you could die, and that it's a drag to take you with us, so we're going to keep you here. However, no one wants to say the above paragraph, it is too hurtful, and people can't help but despair after listening to it, so a wise field commander will often choose to make up an order to stay where you are and give it to the wounded soldier, telling him that we have not abandoned you, and that you are leaving behind to complete an important task.

Without looking back, Tian Yi walked straight to the middle of the four motorized infantrymen who were lined up in a row in the passage to be on guard, and after changing a magazine, he took the lead towards the end of the passage. Turning left at the end of the passage is a staircase leading to the upper floor, the staircase is facing an airtight hatch, although you can also choose to go to both sides, but Tian Yi judged that the pilgrims on the previous passages on both sides have been annihilated and do not need to continue exploring, so he did not divide his troops to explore the two passages on the left and right before, but decided to open the door in front of him.

As before, the five people were divided into two sides and leaned on the left and right of the door, but this time Tian Yi did not dare to enter rashly. Make a gesture to wait and throw a smoke bomb before ramming. The five people each pulled out a large capsule-shaped smoke bomb from the space combat suit, opened the safe, and prepared to throw, Tian Yi slapped the button next to him hard, but this meeting was not the vibration when the door was opened, a lilac transparent screen was projected in front of Tian Yi, with the symbol text of the pilgrim and the strangely shaped keyboard, and there were twelve empty spaces in the middle, which seemed to be for Tian Yi to fill in the password.

With a wave of his hand, Tian Yi screwed back the safety of the smoke bomb and inserted it back into the slot, and then looked at the screen where he filled in the password, and couldn't help frowning. He first took a picture of the screen projected in the air with the camera built into the helmet, and then motioned to the motorized infantry on the side to prepare for the explosion. Tian Yi let the first one out of the way, and a motorized infantry in charge of blasting behind him filled in, shook the C7 explosive in his hand, and then sprayed it on the lock in the center of the door, inserted the radio-controlled fuse, and the motorized infantry retreated.

"Prepare to detonate, five, four, three, two, detonation." The motorized infantry clicked the red button of the detonator in his hand, and the radio signal was transmitted to the receiver of the fuse at the speed of light, and the C7 explosive exploded instantly, and the C7 explosive, which was far stronger than nitroglycerin, destroyed the door lock almost without blowing any effort, and along with the entire airtight hatch was blown backwards, a burst of purple electricity sparked from the wall, and the thick black smoke kept coming out, covering the figure of the five motorized infantrymen, and the black smoke was better than the white smoke of the smoke bomb, but it was unfortunate, The black smoke also obscured the vision of the motorized infantrymen, but there was no time to delay, Tian Yi waved his right hand forward, and the first one rushed to the door. Instead of the expected plasma energy bomb, the oncoming name is like an indoor garden in the hospital lobby, where all kinds of unknown exotic flowers are blooming in a huge flower bed in the center, and there is even a small fountain in the center of the flower bed.

In his mind, the interior of the Pilgrim warship should be similar to that of a human warship, with metal passages turning left and right, three-dimensional projections displaying data on the left and right walls, and weapon supply boxes everywhere, but what is going on with this garden? Tian Yi subconsciously put down the gun in his hand and looked at the beautiful flowerbed in front of him in a daze.

"Ensign, why did you stop? Lieutenant. A shout came over the intercom, and there was a clear hint of reproach in his voice.

"Sir." Tian Yi was startled, and immediately replied out loud, "You won't believe what I saw." ”

"Of course I know what you see. After taking the photo, the interior of the battleship was scanned with a ray. ”

"Yes, sir." Tian Yi responded and said to the four motorized infantry who entered the hall later, "Set up a ray scanner here to scan the inside of the battleship, and the others will be on guard." ”

"Yes, sir." A motorized infantryman put down the huge metal box he was carrying behind him, opened it, took it out together, set up a tripod, and connected it to the metal box wired, and there was a built-in computer in the metal box to program the ray scanner to work automatically. After a short time, the scan begins.

The commander stood on the bridge and looked at the 3D images that were constantly refreshed on the big screen, thinking slightly, this was Ye Kexin's voice sounding in the bridge.

"Major General Thomas, are you there?"

"I'm here, sir." Thomas responded immediately.

"You can go back to the Martian defense orbit, and you can leave it to Rear Admiral Renault there." Ye Kexin said.

"Huh? What's wrong, sir? Thomas was a little puzzled, everything was going well here, why did he suddenly withdraw himself? What's wrong?

"I'm going to leave the Laurel Base for a while, something happened to the Institute, I'm going back to the surface, the fleet there has been transferred here by me, and there can't be no one on Mars." Ye Kexin said solemnly.

"Got it, sir, I'll go." Thomas realized the seriousness of the situation, although what happened on the ground research had nothing to do with him, but he also knew that it was the foundation of the Admiralty, and Feng Fengxiang did not have the great wisdom of commanding the fleet, he was a successful educator, financier and military strategist, as the principal of the Admiralty Newcastle College, it was more than enough to lead the Council and Newcastle College, but he did not know anything about the way the fleet was fighting.

Immediately, a short message was edited and sent to the commander of the "Praetorian Guard" Fifth Fleet, Renault. Rear Admiral Ackerman, after informing him that he was leaving, slowly retreated with the fleet.

After completing the transfer deployment, Ye Kexin breathed a sigh of relief and turned off the audio communication.

"Looks like I can't go with you."

"It's okay, I'll go by myself." Xia Lu shook her head.

"Then let's go, the albatross is about to take off." Ye Kexin smiled at Xia Lu, then took Xia Lu's hand and ran towards the side door of the central control center, where to walk to the nearest apron of the laurel base.

The two trotted all the way out of the central control center.
