Chapter 41: The Hook Mercenary Regiment and the "Anteater" Mecha

readx; Almost all the members of the Hook Mercenary Regiment are mutant genetic warriors who have used the "Feline Genetically Modified Optimizer". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although human basic technology has been widely used today, those high-quality genetic optimizers with low production and high price are still consumer goods for the wealthy.

In this era of nuclear contamination and barren chaos, only the strong can survive, and those who are tenacious among the poor lower classes of humanity are forced to choose this cheap method of gaining power.

Compared with those genetic optimizers that can almost perfectly optimize humans, the "animal genetically modified optimizers" that are inherited from this type of animal genes are often much cheaper, and they also have the genetic ability to defend against low levels of radiation, immunize against a large number of germs, and increase body strength and endurance.

The only side effect is that some of the body characteristics of the Pharmacopodiaceae will slowly appear.

For example, hair, teeth, ears and tail, and even severely changed voice and movement habits can change.

The predecessor of the Hook Mercenary Regiment was nothing more than an ordinary mercenary squad out of the slums, and in a few years, relying on extraordinary courage and loyalty to their employers, they gradually developed into a mercenary group of nearly 1,000 people, in order to strengthen their strength, they used a large number of cheap base reinforcements like many lower-level mercenary groups.

It's just that although there are many lower-level mercenary groups that use cheap animal genetically modified enhancers in this era, most of them will not unify animal families, and there are only a few of them like the Hook Mercenary Group that only use one family and genus enhancers.

This practice of trying to make everyone change the same way makes such a mercenary group more centripetal and easier to have huge popularity.

At this time, this pursuing force of the Hook Mercenary Regiment encountered Ning Yu's elite guard mecha squad. Seeing the mission of the pursuit turn into a vicious battle.

The captain of the Hook Mercenary Regiment reminded Hook loudly:

"Boss Hook, since we really want to do it, I think it's better to find a terrain that is favorable to us, I don't think the Ning family's mecha team is ordinary."

In the face of the menacing Ning family's powerful mechas, Hook was a little ready to give up the pursuit, but the Lai family gave him the task of killing people no matter what, although he had already reported the situation here, but the Lai family never replied to him.

He is really suffering now, and the entire mercenary group is now dependent on the Lai family for survival. Nowadays, the price of food on the market is surprisingly expensive, and many old employers who used to cooperate with them are already running out of food, and this Lai family can still afford to hire his team.

And considering the reputation of their mercenary group for many years, Hook also had to be ruthless and touch the Ning family.

"Now, before the new order of the Lai family arrives, we must continue to pursue, Tiger Da, Tiger Er, you lead your two squads to bypass the enemy and prepare to encircle. If those guys just want to stop the pursuit, you can split up a team and continue to pursue the fleeing enemy, we have several times the number of mechs, I don't believe we can't fight them...... The other mechs entered the hilly area and covered the advance ......"

With Hook's order, the well-trained mechs behind him were divided into two, one with twenty mechs, bypassing the main route and heading straight to the rear of Ning Yu's team, and the other team of the same twenty mechs scattered to the hilly area on the route that was convenient for cover and continued the pursuit.

This cautious tactic was the magic weapon of Hook's years of fighting, but at such a speed of covering and pursuing, Hua Yu and his party were already out of the range of their artillery.

Looking at Ning Yu's side again, the ten airborne mecha were already approaching the ground.

I saw that when those mecha were dozens of meters away from the ground, the bottom of the mecha neatly spewed out a landing deceleration tail flame, raising a large amount of sand and dust on the ground.

After a bang, Ning Yu's mecha was the first to smash to the ground at high speed, and the excellent shock absorption system made the mecha only sink slightly on the ground, and then stood up again like a solid wall.

Knock, knock, knock - after Ning Yu, the other mechs in the team also smashed smoothly to the ground in turn.

"Ning Shao, in our family's system database, there seems to be information on enemy mechas, this kind of mecha should be a foreign trade mecha. The Lai family is really like the legend, they don't even have the manufacturing capacity of mechas, and their main mecha are all ordered from other families, but these mecha shouldn't be cheap, and the Lai family may not be as downtrod as they seem. ”

In one of the mechs of the Ning Yu Mecha Guard, a surprised voice came from a team member.

Ning Yu said indifferently: "This is the 'anteater', when this kind of mecha was first launched, it was one of the very strong models, and the family that made this kind of mecha was an old mecha manufacturing family in Japan. In fact, it can become a foreign trade mecha that exports to earn resources, which in itself shows that this kind of mecha has good combat power, don't underestimate it, the water depth of the Lai family is not deep, let's find out more. ”

Ning Yu knew that the Lai family had this kind of mecha, but he didn't expect that there would be so many.

Foreign trade mechs tend to have better environmental adaptability and operational endurance than homemade mechas, because when manufacturing them, the export family has already taken into account the families that may be exported to different environments and combat needs, and only more stable and durable products are the first choice for those families that may not have any industrial base.

An old team member said: "Ning Shao, is this kind of mecha very strong, seeing that their head is a long-barreled turret, I think it's ridiculous." I've never seen anything like this before. ”

Another disdainful member of the team joked: "Me too, I don't know what the anteater was like before it mutated, but I think the bulky head of this mecha is more like a chariot that has been modified, with the arms and lower limbs of the mecha." ”

Hahaha, with the spoof dialogue between several people in Ning Yu's team about this "anteater" mecha, the atmosphere in the team relaxed for a while.

Ning Yu's calmness is still the same, the members of these mecha guard teams he selected are all the top genetic warriors of the Ning family, all of them have more than hundreds of actual combat experience, and they can be said to be elite soldiers honed from the war.

In the face of enemy mechs that were four times their own, Ning Yu was not surprised that they could still have such a calm performance.

It's just that Ning Yu knows that in fact, each of them is aware of the difficulty of foreign trade mechas, after all, who will buy something without real power.

While a few people in the team were talking, the mecha they were operating had not stopped rearing, the parachute had just been used had fallen off the mech, and some of the cushions that protected the sensitive external instruments during parachuting also floated down.

After Ning Yu completed all the mecha preparations, he began to issue tasks:

"One mech equipped with a heavy shield is responsible for protecting the vehicles of the Flower Feather Squad, two mechs equipped with backpack-mounted long-range snipers go to that high ground to launch a firing mode, and the rest of the mechs are scattered and ready to defend against enemy fire...... Just now, the enemy forces have implemented a roundabout tactic of dividing their troops, and we must keep an eye on our rear at all times......"

With Ning Yu's order, the two mechs with a giant cannon mounted on their backs were the first to start, and after boarding a nearby mound, they put on a very stable crawling posture on all fours, so that the cannon body of the huge plasma cannon mounted on their backs happened to have a solid turret.

This kind of giant cannon is a kind of secondary gun on a battleship modified by Ning Yu, mainly used to attack small fast targets on battleships, although it is only a secondary gun of a battleship, but it is really big when used on land, and no family will move it to the ground battlefield, but Ning Yu is very willing to give it a try.

It's just that the two brothers who piloted the mecha had to use their mecha as a turret.

The two mechas, which were in an ugly posture, began to manipulate the giant cannon on their backs to slowly recharge, and the air around them seemed to begin to flow around them at this time, and the speed of charging seemed to be very slow, and the huge cannon body seemed to have a slight vibration in the later stage, at this moment.

"Boom", "boom" - the two cannons emitted a huge roar, and Ning Yu could feel the recoil of this huge cannon in his mecha.

After the loud bang, the bewitching plasma energy projectile instantly flew out of sight, clinging to the horizon and flying towards the enemy's two mechs.

Hua Yu and the others, who were hurrying to flee this way, were just below the route where the projectile flew.

They had already been frightened by the pursuers, but at this time, they only felt two balls of light flash above their heads, followed by a series of sonic booms in the air, and a faint shock wave.

Fortunately, Hua Yu and the others were far away from the projectile that had been skipped, otherwise the shock wave would definitely have flipped them off the chariot.

But the members of the enemy Hook team were not so lucky, and the two energy bombs that were deliberately compressed in volume directly hit the shields on the front of the two "anteater" mechas.

After consuming a layer of energy, the projectile pierced through directly, causing a terrible energy penetration damage to the mecha behind the shield. The two poor mechs tumbled to the ground in an instant.

The mecha pilot who was hit couldn't believe the moment he saw his mecha shield being pierced by a large shiny projectile.

Theoretically, the normal energy projectiles that hit the shield can generally be weakened, and even after penetration, they will not cause great damage to the mecha behind, but Ning Yu's cannon has been specially modified by him.

Plasma weapons in the cosmic environment, because there is no interference and reduction of substances in the air, generally do not need to be equipped with an inert energy shield on the outer layer of the energy bomb after launch. Without the blessing process, they usually have the advantage of being faster to recharge and cheaper to manufacture.

However, in the atmosphere, plasma without a protective film dissipates instantly. Therefore, the range and cost of plasma weapons used in the atmosphere depend entirely on the number of layers and durability of the outer protective film.

The projectile body fired by Ning Yu's weapon is not only compressed smaller, but also blessed with a double-layer inert energy shield. The double-layer protective film allows the projectile to fly in the air for a longer period of time, and even if the outer layer is intercepted by a laser, the inner layer can even break out and continue to fly towards the target.

Moreover, the projectile was not intercepted, and when it hit the surface of the armor intact, it also had the armor-piercing ability of shell-piercing shells.

The only drawback is that the shield required for this weapon is too complex, the cost of charging is too long, and the size and cost are not suitable for mass production.

Hook didn't expect the other party to be able to fire at them from such a distance, and scolded in his heart: Damn, how can these bastards use all the space weapons, but it's not right, there is a reduction in the atmosphere, it is impossible to have such power.

At this time, Hook didn't have time to think about it, and simply shouted: "All the mechs lie down and look for cover." Bastard, what the hell, the Ning family is really extravagant, and they actually spent a lot of money to transform two ship-borne secondary guns for mecha use. ”
