Chapter 69: Brain Worm I
At 6 a.m. on January 15, 2071 -- the Asteroid Belt in Far Earth Orbit of the Sharetz Satellite -- the 400-meter traffic pipeline above the "heart" of the Leviathan --
"Warrant officer, stay put." With only one sentence left, Lieutenant Li Xinwei rushed out, bursting out faster than Mark who used electromagnetic acceleration to run, and he obviously didn't do his best.
"Lieutenant Li, make sure that kid comes back alive!"
"Understood."
While Mark and Li Xinwei were talking, Li Xiaoxin, the "sensor" of the engineering corps, had dodged no less than twenty attacks, and this was when he lost his jetpack. It has to be said that the engineering corps is very experienced in escape, and the marines should learn from them.
"Wow!" A nest insect suddenly pounced from the right side, and Li Xiaoxin, who had just rolled to avoid the other nest worm, couldn't dodge, and was bitten on his right shoulder by the nest worm, and the huge momentum made him fall to the ground.
The moment he fell to the ground, Li Xiaoxin's left hand had already taken out a "65" pistol, and two shots killed the nest insect. The shoulder armor was thick, so it was not bitten by the nest bug, but the corpse of the nest worm was still hanging on it, and it would take a lot of effort to get it down. As a last resort, Li Xiaoxin had to run away with this "baggage". It was the time of this fall that brought the large number of nest insects* who followed Li Xiaoxin closer, and maybe in another ten seconds, those nest insects with two pairs of fangs would drown Li Xiaoxin. At this critical juncture, Li Xinwei, who was heavily armed, stood in the middle of the passage.
"Engineer, get down." After saying this, the many weapons on Li Xinwei's body began to roar. Because he heard Mark say on the radio that there was such a friendly soldier, Li Xiaoxin chose to lie down without the slightest hesitation, and many bullets flew almost above his head.
"Sneer, sneer, sneerβ"
"Squeak--"
The sound of bullets tearing* and bones sounded before Li Xiaoxin threw himself to the ground, and the creepy screams of the nest insects sent chills down his spine, but knowing that there was no good fruit to eat when he stopped in place, Li Xiaoxin overcame his fear and crawled forward, as long as he crawled to Li Xinwei's side, he was basically safe.
"Bang bang -- " The roar of the 12.5mm four-barreled machine gun was uninterrupted, and if this was on the ground, the bullet casings might have piled up to the height of a hill. However, this is a space operation, and the soldiers use non-shell shells in their weapons, and when the warhead is fired, the body part of the bullet is completely burned and discharged through the exit port. If you're using shelled bullets, think of bullet casings flying all around.
When Li Xiaoxin climbed to Li Xinwei's side, half of the hive worms in pursuit had been killed, but looking at the signs of the wriggling of the pipe breach, it seemed that the Zerg still had reinforcements coming from there. The person who needed to be saved was out of the danger area, Li Xinwei no longer hesitated, the mechanical bracket was activated, the 60mm twin-mounted rocket launcher was sent to the shoulder, the right foot took two steps back, the body leaned forward, the 12.5mm machine gun stopped firing, and Li Xinwei's heavy combat armor entered a state of equilibrium.
"Engineer, cover me."
"Yes!" Li Xiaoxin, who had just taken the nest worm off his shoulder armor, raised the AGH and launched an attack on the many nest worms that rushed straight away, and Li Xinwei also took advantage of this time to launch two rockets at the hole in the pipe where the nest worm gushed out.
"Bang-bang-"
When the flames from the explosion poured out of the pipe, the "sewer" that Mark had passed through was completely in ruins. And Li Xinwei, who had finished the rocket launch, also raised his right hand carrying the flamethrower in an instant, and raised the flame butcher knife towards the remnants of the nest insects.
"Reduced to ashes, bugs." The incendiary agent mixed with liquid oxygen filled the space in front of Li Xinwei, and as the flames drilled out of the spray hole, the space was all ignited.
Li Xiaoxin, who was replacing the magazine, swallowed his saliva and resolutely escaped from this danger zone. Looking at the many zergs struggling in the flames, Li Xinwei shook his head, put away his weapons and turned around and walked towards the safe area.
"Boss, you almost killed me by making me wait in the passageway! If it weren't for the filth in it, maybe I would have been caught up, it's really "As soon as he ran to Mark's side, Li Xiaoxin couldn't help but complain, but Mark pointed to Hu Ke and the others who were "looking", and Li Xiaoxin consciously shut up.
"Well done, Lieutenant." Pointing at Li Xinwei, Mark installed the biological pulse generator given by Dr. Railton on his arm, according to his prediction, when Hu Ke and the two found the core of Leviathan, they would also be discovered by the brain worm, and at that time, the pulse generator would play a huge role.
"Warrant Officer, Captain asked me to ask you how long it will take, our communication with the outside world has been completely cut off, and the communication between the teams will not last long, we"
"Big man, you're too wordy. We've found the Leviathan core, just four kilometers below us, a hive-shaped object with a diameter of one kilometer, and it's up to you to decide how to get down. β
Before Li Xinwei finished speaking, Tang Xingfeng interrupted him on the radio public channel, and all the soldiers within the radio receiving range received the "heart" coordinates sent by Tang Xingfeng.
Shrugging at Li Xinwei, Mark expressed his impatience, Tang Xingfeng is like this, he always doesn't give face to others, and then, he was repaired. Fortunately, Li Xinwei just killed a lot of Zerg to vent, and there was no anger in his heart, otherwise with his usual character, Tang Xingfeng would definitely be beaten, but even his next actions still scared Comrade Xiao Tang a lot.
"Oh? Is it underground? "Raising the 60mm rocket launcher, Li Xinwei fired a rocket launcher at the wall behind Tang Xingfeng, the distance between the shell and the top of Tang Xingfeng's helmet was only two centimeters, and when the explosion blew up the wall behind Tang Xingfeng, our little Tang classmate was already cold.
"I'm rubbing! Big man, you're going to kill you like this! β
"Don't talk nonsense, come with me, the captain is already waiting for us on the next floor." Lifting the debris blocked in the explosion gap, Li Xinwei was the first to jump into the cracked Leviathan "blood vessel", and this "blood vessel" went straight to the next layer of the Leviathan.
"Let's go, the brain worm has discovered us, ready to explode the shield at any time." Patting Tang Xingfeng on the shoulder, Mark also walked to the side of the "blood vessel" and activated the jet pack, Mark also jumped in, followed by Hu Ke and Li Xiaoxin.
"I'll go, don't you use normal people if you join the commando? Wow, ahhhh With an unpleasant roar, Tang Xingfeng also jumped down
