Chapter 148: Heavy casualties
Tracing a mailing address, for the communication team of the executioner's unit, for the special equipment owned by the communication team, it can really be regarded as an anti-aircraft gun to fight mosquitoes and kill chickens with a knife. Upon returning to the base, I immediately got detailed information about the address of the communication target.
Although the address is available, it remains to be confirmed who exactly is there, whether there are any accomplices, whether it is a stronghold or just a temporary residence of a person. Moreover, when I got the news, I still need to discuss with the general whether to take action immediately before I can decide. Ideally, get something from the mouth of the bar owner before you do it!
However, the owner of the bar was arrested, and the news must not be hidden for long, maybe those people also have attention, if it is too long, there is likely to be an accident, and the above needs to make a decision immediately. Before the above could make a decision, Gao He and Bing Sha had already left the group again, and the two of them rode on Gao He's personal battleship and headed straight for the target address.
The bait address provided by the bar owner is a must-go, or those people will be suspicious of something. If the military had taken control of the bait, those people might have mistaken the bar owner for just telling the bait.
Gao He has special permission to move on his own, but others do not have such freedom and can only wait for orders. The target address is also on Planet Alpha, and unlike the decoy address, which is located in the middle of a city, it is a desert and mountainous area bordered by very few human beings.
Of course, the desert cannot be inhabited, or rather, it cannot be inhabited for a long time without logistical provisions, but the mountains are different. Although the mountains are close to the desert, the climate is already very different, although it is still very dry, it is relatively normal, and the animals and plants are widely distributed, which also provides the most natural living resources for the people living here. And it is the presence of this mountain range that also prevents the further expansion of the desert below.
Still far away in the desert outside the mountains, Gao He and Bingsha got off the battleship, the environment in this desert is dangerous, almost no one haunts it, and there is much less chance of exposure than entering the mountain from the other direction. The general has not yet given a formal order, so it is not good to startle the snake.
For the current Gao He and Bing Sha, this harsh environment in the desert has no effect at all, if it weren't for Gao He's inability to fly, the two would have reached their destination a long time ago, and they wouldn't have to trek through this endless desert like now. The ice is fine, a few points off the ground, as if it is drifting. Gao He was not so lucky, he was already heavy, and he was wearing heavy equipment like an armband, almost one step at a time.
Fortunately, Gao He's strong physical strength, this little setback is nothing, it should be that he didn't train at the base, but changed to this place. Moreover, with a change of environment, it is easy to make people feel fresh.
Although Bingsha is a very advanced cultivator, his perception of certain dangers is not at the same level as Gao He's. Planet Alpha is a relatively mature immigrant planet, but in some areas, it is still a forbidden area for ordinary humans. These places are full of unpredictable dangers, and this desert is one of them.
The first danger in the desert is hurricanes. On Planet Alpha, in desert areas where there are no special windbreak measures, hurricanes can be as high as fifteen to seventeen. In the face of this terrible catastrophe that even an ancient means of transportation can be blown over, the tiny human being has no advantage over the tiniest sand in the desert.
This time it was obviously a miscalculation, and no one knew that such a gale would be encountered here. Fortunately, Gao He's ability to perceive danger saved his surname in time. Alerted, Ice Shary dug a crypt from the desert as fast as he could. The crypt was deep enough, and Ice Sha reinforced the passage and crypt with ice, and the two of them took refuge in it before the hurricane arrived.
It's still Gao He who is tired, if it weren't for Gao He, Bing Sha would have been able to fly away, compared to the way it is now, hiding in the crypt in embarrassment, I don't know how many times better. And even in the event of a hurricane, with the ability to scare ice, although it cannot be as strong as the icebergs of the twin planets in such a water-scarce place, it will not be too dangerous. Looking at Bingsha, Gao He once again had a complaint that his ability was too low.
Through the small camera, the two can see the scene outside. The overwhelming yellow sand was swept up by the raging hurricane, and the whole sky was the scene of sand and dust, and the sky became dark and dreary because of this. Some huge sand dunes seemed to move slowly and quickly in the direction of the hurricane's blows at a speed visible to the naked eye. All the obstacles encountered were mercilessly buried by the huge sand mountain, leaving no trace.
Soon, the camera was also buried underneath, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen. Fortunately, the crypt was safe enough, and under the lighting of the tactical helmet, Bingsha even comfortably got a few glasses of ice water out. Gao He knew that these were all ice cubes from the root of the 10,000-year-old ice orchid, which were very beneficial to people, and he did not enjoy them politely.
Sitting in the crypt, Takatsuru could feel the terrifying energy hidden in the unbridled hurricane on the ground. This kind of natural power is many times stronger than the kind of energy attack caused by human cultivators, and it is unstoppable. There had already been an encounter where the energy of an earthquake could be clearly felt when he was in the underground base, and Gao He was even more concerned about this hurricane.
No one taught Gao He how to practice, and even Bingsha, who was close at hand, deliberately did not teach him ordinary cultivation exercises for fear of affecting Gao He's creativity. Although the true element in the meridians has been flowing normally, it has not improved for a long time. The only thing Takatsuru can learn is this natural disaster.
Unlike the thick and irresistible peculiarities of earthquakes, hurricanes are a different kind of horror. Lightweight, flexible, and pervasive. And the similarities are also something that no one is able to compete with. Although Takatsuru was not affected by the hurricane, he could still feel the feeling of powerlessness. Or, it is precisely because of this heartfelt feeling that it also stimulates Gao He's running true yuan, which is slowly transforming towards a special surname like a hurricane.
Speaking of which, thanks to Gao He's meridian-free physique, Zhenyuan struggled a little and broke through the limitations of foreign meridians. Some of them are still following their own path in the meridians, while the other part is like a tornado in Takatsuru's body, forming a huge whirlpool, spinning from slow to fast.
The changes in Gao He's body didn't seem to have attracted Bingsha's attention. Perhaps, in this hurricane-ravaged situation, this bit of simulated hurricane true element in Gao He's body can't attract the attention of the master at all.
Inexplicably, in this crypt, Gao He actually had some insights, very strange things. However, the two of them finally thought of one problem - Gao He's personal warship, if it had not been blown away, must have been buried under the sand by now.
Such a place where people live besides those who really study hurricanes and deserts? This alone is already suspicious, and in this marginalized place, all the management is not as standardized as the city, and it is easy to hide dirt and dirt, and it seems that there must be a lot of secrets here.
Hurricanes still had an impact. Takatsuru's battleship suddenly disappeared not far from the target area, which was much more important than catching the people inside. By the time the hurricane had passed, Gao He and Icesha had come out of the crypt, and several squads of the Executioners were already on their way.
Takatsuru still received the news that the latest helmet allowed him to contact the Executioners when their warships were not far away. Knowing that Gao He and Bingsha were safe and sound, they were relieved from top to bottom. However, since they came, they all had to be investigated.
The communications team quickly controlled the communications in the area, ensuring that no communication requests could be reached. When Gao He and Ice Shary were almost in position, everyone began to move.
Everyone here is suspicious, and everyone is ordered to kill if they resist. This operation is already a special case of the executioner force, and the mission that requires so many people from the executioner force has never been alive. When a team of murderous soldiers appeared, there were still very few people who could really go through the test of life and death and be unswerving, and most of the smart ones chose to raise their hands and surrender.
The entire mountainous area quickly fell in the reports of a group of personnel, and the few guys who occasionally jumped out and tried to resist with weapons were also beaten to pieces by the firefighters who fired first. When they really encountered resistance, Gao He and Bingsha were both happy in their hearts, at least, this was not that kind of bait, it was likely to be a small base.
In a pear-shaped valley, there is also a piece of architecture there. The real communication is directed there, and the communication team has confirmed that there are now a large number of communication requests there, and all of them have been intercepted.
There must be practitioners here, no doubt about it. The ability team, including Zi Xiaoyun, joined Gao He and Bingsha, and according to the scattered battle formation, they touched towards the building. The two fire support teams quickly approached the mountain wall, looking for suitable cover, and pointed their guns at the opposite building to cover them. Unfortunately, it was empty, and there was no particularly good place to cover it, so I could only turn on the sniper camera and stand in place, vigilantly observing all the visible parts of the building.
Entering through the narrow entrance of the pear-shaped valley, all but the building at the bottom of the valley is a flat gravel field. No one has appeared in the building so far, and it is estimated that they are all hiding inside. The battleship had already flown into the air, and there were even several small single-flying battleships carrying several cyborg firefighters cruising back and forth on it, preventing any cultivators from escaping by flying. The super energy sensing radar specially developed for cultivators has also been fully turned on, and even if someone relies on stealth and formation, it is impossible to escape the tracking of this radar.
Zi Xiaoyun followed closely behind Gao He, which Gao He strongly demanded after seeing her. The current Zi Xiaoyun is no longer the little girl who couldn't go out to perform tasks at the beginning, but this does not prevent Gao He from taking care of her. The people inside must have noticed the change, but they don't know why they haven't started yet.
It is necessary to capture the people inside, but the members of the executioner unit involved in the mission do not seem to have particularly suitable manpower. It seems that the only way to do this is to work the old man. After receiving Gao He's request, Bingsha didn't say anything, snorted, and the whole person took off into the air and flew towards the roof of the building.
The others began to slowly converge on the flat field of small, even stone blocks, towards the building. There were no cover, but the Executioners were always the best equipped to do anything about the armor-clad Adepts unless the building was equipped with naval guns, or weapons like crutches and armbands. It's also a strategy, and a slow approach can make the people in the building more and more nervous, and the tension will make it easy to make mistakes, and it will also make it easier to move.
Gao He suddenly felt a fluster, which was a sign that danger was approaching. But what the specific danger is, Gao He is still unknown. After warning his comrades, he stepped on the stones under his feet and continued to move forward. I hadn't taken two steps before I suddenly thought of something and looked back.
From the narrow area where you entered, to the rocks that slowly spread out on the walls of the valley, there were potholes everywhere, as if they had been struck by something. Thinking of these loose stones under his feet, and the experience of the hurricane not long ago, Gao He suddenly shouted: "Danger, get down!" ”
Unfortunately, Gao He's warning was still a little late, and as soon as the words fell, a terrifying energy began to erupt from the other end of the building. The energy caused a reaction similar to that of a hurricane not long ago, and the building was the source of the building, blowing frantically towards the entrance to the narrow valley.
The terrifying wind speed, as well as the sudden micro-explosion underground, blew the pebbles directly into the air. On the open field, where there is nothing to shelter, everyone is directly exposed to a storm of energy no less than the speed of a hurricane.
According to the research theory, when the wind speed exceeds 100 meters per second, it can directly blow people away. The storm that had just erupted was obviously more than this speed, and when it was caught off guard, several team members who didn't have time to lie down or change their posture immediately flew into the air and slapped it fiercely towards the mountain wall behind.
What's even more terrifying is that the wind mixed with small stones seems to bathe everyone in a bullet curtain. The terrifying speed drives the high-velocity kinetic energy caused by the stones, which is no less powerful than some small-caliber bullets. In just a moment, a terrifying red color appeared on the mountain wall that the human body photographed.
Even the best armor is impossible to resist this dense physical attack, not to mention, the current armor design is all aimed at energy attacks, and the protection against physical attacks has been weakened a lot.
While warning everyone, Gao He immediately turned around, threw Zi Xiaoyun to the ground, and pressed it deadly. A shout came out of his mouth: "Control with maximum gravity!" Spread your body as far as you can, blocking the petite figure below.
The body is like a beach exposed to heavy rain, which is really in response to the old saying "the rain hits the beach and dots the pits". The barrage composed of stones all over the sky covered part of the head and face.
Although Gao He had already fallen down, most of his body was still exposed to the stone attack while covering Zi Xiaoyun. In the thumping sound, Gao He's body trembled for a while. Every time there was an impact, it meant that a stone bullet had hit Gao He. Even the latest high-tech armor couldn't withstand a few such attacks, and soon the armor turned into a sieve.
One or two screams could be vaguely heard, and at this moment, he couldn't care about other comrades, Gao He could only control the true yuan in his body, increase his speed to the fastest, and strive to reduce the pain of being attacked by the stones, and at the same time, hide Zi Xiaoyun under his body.
As the entrance gets narrower and narrower, the closer you get to the entrance, the stronger the wind, and the more powerful the stones in it become. The terrifying wind speed, even if they were lying on the ground, there were still team members who were rolled up, and they slapped on the mountain wall from a distance, and there were bursts of different sounds from stones hitting the mountain wall in the wind.
In a short moment, Gao He already felt as if he was being targeted and shot by the T-46, and there was no more intact place on his body. The high-speed stones broke the armor and burrowed heavily into the flesh.
Zhenyuan also seems to have been stimulated by something at the moment, running wildly, trying to resist this dense attack, trying to reduce the energy of the attack, and trying to repair the ** that was hit. Gao He could even feel his own blood splashing out, and then being blown away by the wind.
Fortunately, Zi Xiaoyun had already launched gravity control with all his might, and it was impossible for the wind to blow the two of them away. But the side effect is that the stones near them become several times heavier, and the damage caused by hitting them also increases exponentially. Moreover, the stones in front were embedded in the flesh and blood, and the stones in the back continued to strike, getting deeper and deeper, and on the back of Gao He, there was no longer a piece of intact skin.
The true element in the body, which simulated the ravages of a hurricane, played a life-saving role at this moment. Even if he broke through the ** and broke through the stone of the true element in the meridians, he stopped in front of this constantly rotating true element. The spinning True Yuan even carried a rebounding force, quickly bouncing away the stones embedded in the flesh, but this also aggravated the injury even more.
The terrifying stone wind finally stopped, I don't know if the ice demon had already subdued the indulgent inside, or if the indulgent had exhausted his energy, anyway, stopped.
This is certainly a Western practitioner, able to control the power of the wind. Gao He's remaining sanity told him, and he barely looked down, Zi Xiaoyun's eyes were tightly closed, and there were no obvious wounds on his body for the time being, Gao He's heart relaxed slightly. Raising his head with difficulty, there was no longer a single figure in the entire open place, and he turned his head to look at the mountain wall not far away, and there was a shocking blood red.
The helmet was not broken, and there were bursts of sharp pain in the arms, legs, back, and sides of the body. Staring at the dazzling large patches of blood red on those mountain walls, Gao He's eyes were dark, and he couldn't see anything.
