Chapter 280: The Eve of Stalemate and Counterattack

"And what do you want me to do with that pile of steel plates on the Prometheus?"

"There are some details of this plan, first of all, the overall structure of the Titan warship seems to be very strong, whether it is in the original movie or our personal experience just now, it is: smashed down from a height of 100 meters, all the internal precision parts are damaged, but the hull has not decomposed." Mao Dong clasped his hands together and habitually pinched his fingers: "Not only to ensure the disintegration of the spaceship, but also to let the ship's fragments accurately smash into the Titans, but also to keep us safe in the process of rushing towards the enemy, and not to be injured by too fast friction with the air......"

"I can plant some bombs at the important structural junction of the ship, and I used to exchange a lot of them when I was not strong enough, but now they are almost useless." Zhang Haolin said: "At the moment of acceleration to the apex, detonate these bombs, so that the spacecraft will disintegrate or even turn into pieces in the air, and smash into the enemy with the help of inertia? I see, the ship doesn't contain much magnetic material, and I can control the wreckage of the Prometheus to chase down the enemy! ”

"Indeed, but not only that, I want you to protect as many anti-gravity engines as possible with steel plates to ensure that the ship does not crash before it hits the enemy, the outer sides of the Titans' ring battleship are lined with a large number of anti-gravity engines, and as long as there is a symmetrical distribution of half of them, the ship will not crash, as long as more than half of it is not destroyed, it can slowly levitate out of the atmosphere...... But we can't protect more than half of the engines under enemy attack, but at least a third or more to maintain balance...... Then adjust your stance, start the jump engine, and crash in the direction of the enemy. ”

"I see, I feel very hopeful." After listening to Mao Dong's entire plan and thinking about it carefully, Zhang Haolin realized that it was extremely feasible...... I couldn't help but feel hot and my fighting spirit high. This is the reincarnation version of a kamikaze attack, and it doesn't matter if you can wipe out the enemy completely, as long as you win, scare the enemy, or destroy the enemy's weapons that can be used to shoot down ships in the storm. You will be able to survive the battle between reincarnators again and return to the main god smoothly!

Mao Dong didn't get too excited, and continued to analyze calmly: "In addition to what you said, the wreckage of the Prometheus has one last role, in the process of the disintegration of the spaceship and our rush towards the enemy at a dozen or even dozens of times the speed of sound, the friction with the air will make us unbearable...... Weng Wei has a spell to protect us. But he can't waste his magic on this, we need to show up to the enemy in full force and inflict heavy damage on them cleanly. ”

"Understood, I'll make a small streamlined container out of the wreckage of the Prometheus's hull, and we'll hide in it, parachuted in front of the enemy by inertia, and take them by surprise."

"Hmm...... That's exactly what it means, but before the preparations for the plan begin, we'll have to take a look at the Titan Hangar 345 ruins in the back. Make sure there are ships there that can be used as well, otherwise you won't be able to send the crew away if you hit this last one. ”

――

"Indeed, this is a problem." Zhang Haolin nodded, although the whole plan had not yet been skimmed, at least he was no longer at a loss and had no direction, his mood relaxed, picked up the hot chocolate that was already baked on the heating machine, and poured it into his cup. Bring it to your lips, blow the hot air and take a few sips before swallowing it. A warmth flowed from my throat to my stomach.

"I'm going to drink it too." Arnie whispered in the crook of Wen Yu's arm.

"Alright, bring the cup." Zhang Haolin poured a cup for all the other teammates and continued the topic just now: "Then, rest for a while, eat and drink enough, and recover your strength." We'll take a look at the other three hangars later. ”

Everyone gathered around the heater, chatting casually about the details of the plan, eating and drinking, and it took more than half an hour...... Although the body is lazy and does not want to move at all, the things that need to be done cannot be delayed. It's time to check out the other bases.

"Bring the detector, Arnie stays and rests, and everyone else follows me."

"Where are you going?" Arnie was not happy: "I don't have to rest, I can help you find your way!" ”

"Don't make a fuss, the crew here still needs someone to protect it, you just need to protect these ordinary people." Zhang Haolin said a few words casually, and easily fooled the little soldier with a noble reason: "David, I will have people keep watch at the gate of this base later, once you receive an alarm, start the spaceship immediately, close the door of the spaceship first, and then drive out, we will come back to save you immediately." ”

"Willing to help." Robots are always unhurried and polite.

"I ...... Am I going too? Cai Tingting asked in a low voice, in this team, she still has no right to speak at all, and even Ani can't compare: "I can't help for the time being, right......?"

"No, you can help, take care of the sentry."

"Huh?"

"You don't have a choice, don't you want to do the task assigned to you, you can also follow me, but you are responsible for exploring the way at the front of the next base." Zhang Haolin said impatiently, "Let's go, drag it out again, we will have to deal with laser weapons when the dust storm stops, I don't want to bother with that, you just need to guard near the door, if the detector prompts someone to come in, you can run directly." ”

"Oh...... Good. The slender-faced woman said tremblingly, and quickly got up and followed them. Although she was very afraid, she didn't want to end up being abandoned by the team like Gu Long: obviously she was captured by the alien with Ani, and the veteran had the strength to save Ani, but Gu Long died, and she knew what was going on with her toes.

……

They left the ship and walked back to the surface along a long passage. The "flying geological and biological probe" carried by the Prometheus is quite powerful, and with the protection of these spheres, it stands to reason that there is no need for any pathfinder or sentry...... But there are no absolutes in everything, on the one hand, the enemy is likely to have a way to evade the detection of human detectors; On the other hand, Zhang Haolin purely just wanted to give Cai Tingting a chance to integrate into the team, compared to Gu Long, this woman was not hopelessly stupid, but she was just standing in the wrong line at the beginning...... She followed the team like an angry little daughter-in-law all day long without saying a word, and she was uncomfortable with them.

Of course, a subconscious voice said this: In case the Titans or Xenomorphs take advantage of the reincarnation to sneak out to attack the ordinary crew and can avoid the radar scan of the ordinary detectors, Cai Tingting can also use her life to build the last line of alarm defense for Ani and the ordinary crew: once the prompt of "Team member Cai Tingting is dead" jumps out, Arnie will immediately remind David. The latter will start the spacecraft, no matter how big or twenty-one it flies above the ground, don't get stuck underground.

……

The wind and sand outside are a little bigger, but if the group is full of reincarnations with C evaluations and above, it is not a trouble...... Ride on a broomstick and fly directly to the No. 3 Titan base a few miles away, and when you arrive, you still don't waste resources and put a probe ball first. The psychic ability was then protected by his teammates to explore the path with his spirit, and it didn't take a few minutes to arrive at the location of the No. 3 underground hangar.

Walking on thin ice, he pressed the button next to the door with his liquid gold tentacles from a distance, and the door opened.

"Whew-" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it was still the same warehouse, it was still the same countless sauerkraut jars, and there was also a Titan warship parked in Hangar No. 3.

To ensure safety, they entered the cockpit to make sure that the ship was also usable before returning the way they came.

"I really can't figure it out, why don't the Titans destroy all the ships?" Weng Wei said with some confusion.

"Maybe it didn't work. After all, they didn't come long before us, and they kept fighting; There may be some restrictions, and there will be a punishment for actively destroying the items in the ruins......" Zhang Haolin said: "Leave it alone, it's just a matter of not knowing and not needing to figure it out, we have to be ready for battle now, as long as we defeat those aliens, we can do any task slowly." ”

"It could also be that the Titans are afraid that they will be blocked by the other two teams in the base when they destroy the ship; Or maybe it's the fear that destroying the ship will force the other two teams to join forces against them...... But all conjectures have something that cannot be explained clearly, with their mobility. It's clear that no one needs to be afraid. Mao Dong shook his head: "At this point, let's listen to the captain's command, don't think about it." ”

……

It took them less than half an hour. I checked the No. 4 and No. 5 Titan bases, and the same had a smooth journey without encountering any danger, the No. 4 hangar was empty, and the No. 5 had another battleship, in this case. LV_223 there are still three warships left on this satellite, they can have two chances to launch a suicide attack...... It's a relatively good situation.

By the time the investigation was over, the storm had weakened a few more points, gradually dropping to level 14, and they did not dare to stay longer. After leaving spherical probes in the passage to the hangar from each base with a spaceship, the return to Base 2 was made.

Cai Tingting shrank nervously in the forked route behind the detector at the door, for fear that suddenly the reincarnators of the other two teams would rush over and wait for her teammates to return. With the threat of hostile reincarnation, the new entrants really felt for the first time that these veterans were "their own people" and that they were so "kind".

"It's hard work, go back."

――

"There's nothing more to do, now let's get some rest." Zhang Haolin said to everyone who stayed behind in the spaceship: "Weng Wei has blocked the passage to the spaceship with an earthen wall several meters thick, and it is impossible for the enemy to hide the movement of the enemy breaking through the wall to hide from the geological probe, not to mention that Wen Yu can also maintain mental scanning while sleeping." We're going to wait until this storm is over, and we're going to be here until the next long night and the storm begins. ”

"Okay, do you have a plan for dealing with those engineers?" Vickers asked uneasily.

"Yes, don't ask, if you really want to know, you can go to my room after sleeping." Mao Dong smiled evilly: "I can tell you ...... in private"

"Uh-huh, go to sleep." Zhang Haolin shrugged, if Mao Dong wanted to be a plot character, he really didn't want to care and couldn't care, after all, he had also done this kind of thing, on the one hand, he wanted people to contribute, and on the other hand, he was not allowed to have fun, so that the ghost would have no opinion.

They set up a soundproof space expansion tent, arranged the order of "night" and then assigned the room to prepare for rest, just when they all took off their coats, set the alarm clock and alarm device and prepared to sleep, Ani suddenly ran in from outside, rushed to the girl and hugged her waist: "Wen Yu, can I sleep with you tonight?" It's so cold, please, Wen Yu's good sister~ Please agree! ”

"Didn't I put the heater in your room?" Zhang Haolin asked in some surprise: "I still feel cold, I can give you another quilt, where can I sleep when you sleep with Wen Yu?" ”

"Three people sleep together, I'm really cold, I sleep among you!" Ani arched into Wen Yu's arms hard, like a little girl who was coquettish to her mother.

Zhang Haolin really wanted to sleep with the two girls in one year, but Ani would not be discovered by Wen Yu if he messed around so unscrupulously......

Fortunately, Wen Yu was used to being intimate with Ani in the past, and he didn't think much about it, but smiled and touched the latter's head: "Okay, I'll sleep with you, but it's impossible to sleep with three people, Haolin, you go to her room to sleep." ”

On the eve of the battle, you must not be able to do too many things that consume physical strength, no matter how much you love to do it, Zhang Haolin still has this self-control ability. Despite this, it is still habitually unpleasant to be driven out to sleep alone in such a daze...... He suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but be vigilant: "Is Arnie's mind normal, she can't be controlled by the alien and give some orders, let's wait for you to fall asleep and hurt you." ”

"No, I'm normal!" The little warrior's eyes widened in protest.

"Don't think nonsense, even a person with two thousand spirits can't mentally control the people around me without me noticing." Wen Yu shook his head: "Do you really want to sleep with three people?" ”

"No......" Zhang Haolin was speechless, afraid that he would say too much and make a mistake, so he reluctantly left to sleep alone.

――

It takes five and a half days LV_223 orbit the blue-white gaseous planet to which it belongs, and it is only in the short two hours that it enters the shadow of the massive planet that a regular superstorm occurs. By the time this sleep was over, not only had the storm stopped outside, but it was already dawn.

Now, the outside of the base has become an extremely dangerous area, and the Titans can use laser weapons to illuminate all exposed targets in sight at any time, although there are already means of defense, but no one or alien will be bored to taste the taste of lasers. On the small plain under the highest peak of the planet, it was as if there was no life - the two teams did not come out, and the third team, which was blocked by the first two outside, did not dare to rush to find people, and they were stalemate with each other like a siege.

The human side has been very idle for the past two days, and I thought that the enemy would use various methods to force them out, but I didn't even see a single figure, except for the vigilance and dare not relax and my girlfriend was occupied by the team members all day long and fell asleep, everything was as comfortable as on the main god platform...... However, as the tiny moon orbits the planet, the huge white sphere in the sky with its rings slowly moves closer to the trajectory line of the star's rise and sink...... Once again, the long night of obscuring the entire planet is coming.
