The Hell Paratroopers are powerful as a ground combat unit, but their actual use is not to do justice against rival races, as many people believe.

In fact, it is too easy for the space fleet to suppress the planets that attack and suppress the hostile races, and it only takes more than a day for a warship of the Enterprise level to sweep the surface of an Earth-like nova the size of the Earth, and a dreadnought-level battleship can sweep it in half a day, and it will be more efficient if the planet killer is allowed, but at the cost of the entire planet. Therefore, the attack of the foreign race will basically not be invested in the hell paratroopers, as long as the battleship is sent over, once the enemy's orbital defense is disintegrated, the planet can only be left to the mercy of the mermaid.

And those special missions that require small units do not need Hell paratroopers, and elite special operations units or ghost agents who are transported to a fixed point by the ship's teleportation system are obviously more suitable for these tasks.

Theoretically, the Hell Paratroopers will play an important role in the recapture of the enemy after landing and occupying the planet, but in reality, in the current galactic political landscape, no one will actually occupy a planet that does not belong to them - except in the case of the Hive Fleet, of course, when the Hell Paratroopers will be used as a ground interdiction operation to buy time for the survivors who have withdrawn from the ground, and when the survivors have retreated, the fleet in space will launch planet killers to wipe out the Hive Fleet.

However, after mankind entered the space age, such operations were only carried out once, after all, the hive fleet cannot travel faster than the speed of light, and countless hives sail in the vast space between stars, and it may take hundreds of thousands of years to reach the next plundering target.

Therefore, the Hell Paratroopers are only in the propaganda that they are the heavenly soldiers who defeat the enemy, and in fact, the missions that will actually use the Hell Paratroopers are far less glamorous.

When they don't want to wreak havoc on the planet's surface, but at the same time need to shock the inhabitants of the planet enough, the Space Army will send out the Hell Paratroopers.

Therefore, the attacks of the Hell paratroopers are often not too purposeful. They came down to engage the colony's ground security forces and shatter their resistance with overwhelming strength to shock the people of the planet.

Of course, since it is necessary to display overwhelming combat effectiveness, the Hellparatroopers will not care about civilian casualties when fighting.

"Is it because there are too many people?" When Freya received Lin Youde's explanation message, she suddenly asked, "Is there too much population so you don't value human life?" Scarcity is expensive. Too much is not worth much? ”

"You can't just ignore human life because of that. The real reason is the high danger of cosmic colonization, and the fragility of human beings before semi-mechanization, and the development of the universe has killed many, many people, and then naturally everyone is used to dead people. ”

Lin Youde transmitted everything he heard from the teacher and Instructor Li to Freya.

After semi-mechanization, there were fewer casualties in the development of the universe, but the habit of not valuing human life was retained, and it was only in some colonies with a relatively high degree of development and a population of more than one billion people that human rights were once again valued.

"Well, besides, let's talk about this as well, okay? It doesn't seem to be a good situation. ”

Freya looked around, the first batch of landed hell paratroopers had already formed a formation, because they were only semi-mechanized, and Markov's overlapping mental system was not yet mature, so the number of auxiliary systems brought by the paratroopers was far less than that of the era that Lin Youde was familiar with, but the new humans had already shown overwhelming combat effectiveness.

A landing compartment smashed not far from Lin Youde, and the paratroopers inside came out and tore a power armor with their hands, scaring the people around them enough.

[The gaze of this fragment will also hang up soon, right?] Lin Youde asked Noah.

[It should be.] That's what the man wants to kill you. 】

Lin Youde couldn't help but smack his lips.

He dragged Freya and ran with the crowd. At the same time, the eyes are six ways and the ears are listening. After running a few steps, the building on the side of the road in front of him collapsed, and the shattered tempered glass wall gave birth to a dense rain of debris, and Lin Youde watched as a couple running in front of him was cut by the carotid artery by the debris.

Lin Youde used his back to protect Freya.

"You don't need to protect me," Freya said, "I have nanomachines too, and I'm not afraid of scratches of this magnitude now." It's the same as you. ”

Lin Youde didn't reply, but looked up ahead, and the combat boat with the insignia of the colonial security forces appeared, and began to strafe the ground.

But the next moment, the weapon of the combat boat failed, and Lin Youde knew that it was a new human who had invaded the fire control system of the combat boat. Immediately afterwards, Lin Youde saw that the hell paratroopers who should have been attacked activated the jet engine on the armored combat suit, dragged the smoke onto the combat boat, and directly smashed the windshield of the combat boat cockpit with his hands, grabbed the pilot and dragged him out of the cabin.

When he left the cabin, the pilot's body was pierced by the sharp angle of the glass, making a terrible cut, and blood sprayed on the insignia of the security forces on the side of the cabin.

The combat boat crashed into the ground, setting off a large number of cement blocks, and the strong wind created by the jet engine that was still in operation hit Lin Youde's face, which was extremely hot.

After taxiing for some distance, the massive combat boat finally stopped, and the Hell paratroopers stood up, standing upright on the wreckage of the combat boat, looking like a hunter who had just shot a large prey, and the combat boat turned into the corpse of the prey, lying at his feet.

"That's just a monster...... Lin Youde heard the person lying on the ground nearby muttering in a voice full of fear, he turned his head to look, and found that the person's face was full of blood, and several pieces of glass were inserted into his skin, which made people feel extremely painful when they looked at it.

Then, almost at the same time, a group of young men wearing armbands appeared, the emblem on which consisted of gears and swords, and a conspicuous red star.

"We are the general manager of the Federation of Students who supports nano-engineering, and now we are ordered to lead the way for the United Nations Army!" The young man at the head turned on the megaphone, "Please come with us, we know the residence of the die-hard anti-nano faction!" ”

The Hell's paratroopers, who had been on guard, raised their guns and lifted their helmet masks. The face under the mask was very young, and he smiled at the students.

A schoolgirl ran towards the wreckage of the combat boat with flowers, and the Hellcontroopers jumped off the wreckage, hung their weapons behind them, and reached out to receive the flowers, looking like they were going to give the schoolgirls a hug.

But just as he put his arms around the girl's waist, the girl shouted in a voice full of fear and crying: "For pure humanity!" ”

Lin Youde, who had already discovered that the girl had a bomb tied to her body, just pressed Freya's head to the ground to prevent her from seeing the girl's flesh and blood flying.

The other students who came to greet the paratroopers didn't seem to expect things to turn out like this, and one of them was blown up, flew over a distance of more than ten meters, and landed in front of Lin Youde, who knew at a glance that his life would be short.

The young man used his last strength and made an unwilling voice: "Why is this happening...... It's clear that you're about to turn into a powerful new human, so why ......?"

At this time, the bombed paratrooper passed through the layers of smoke created by the explosion and came to the student.

The explosion almost destroyed his armor, and Lin Youde judged that as the first generation of new humans, this paratrooper probably would not live long, unless he could lie down in the medical box immediately.

The paratrooper half-knelt down, looked at the student and said, "Even if you join the camp that supports nanomachines now, you won't be able to turn yourself into a new human, you are too big." ”

"That's ......"

"yes." As soon as the new human was finished, the student passed away forever.

The new human took off the helmet that had been blown up, and Lin Youde immediately knew through his own ability that the communication device built into the helmet had been destroyed, and all other equipment had been broken. He slowly lay down beside the student he didn't know, pulled out the handheld computer from the lining of the broken armor, and gently touched the screen, and then a holographic projection appeared above the handheld computer, it was a girl with a bright smile, she seemed to be saying something, but there was no sound coming from the handheld computer - because the PA device had broken in the explosion just now.

The new human looked at the screen, his expression gradually becoming serene, and then his hand lost its strength, and the palm computer slid to the ground along the arc of his body.

The girl in the hologram is still smiling, her mouth opening and closing, and saying words that no one can hear.

Two corpses and a holographic projection, together with a large amount of rubble, formed an indescribable picture, and Lin Youde stared at that picture, his heart was mixed.

Freya whispered, "I seem to be ...... I kind of know the meaning of sadness, and now this feeling is blocked in my chest......"

The picture in front of him began to collapse, obviously this part of the fragments was about to end, Lin Youde estimated that the main point of view of the fragments was severely damaged by the fragments of tempered glass, and he lay on the ground and walked the last journey of his life, and by the way, he saw this small episode.

At the same time that everything around him was dark, Lin Youde also lost Freya's touch, and this time without waiting for Lin Youde to remind him, Freya said: "I know, I want to imagine what it looks like to be hugging you." ”

Then the softness that belonged to the girl returned to Lin Youde's arms.

Taking this as a signal, the darkness fades, and a bustling alien-style city appears in Lin Youde's field of vision.

Lin Youde was stunned for a moment, because he didn't have a single bit of information about the planet in front of him in his memory, but Freya immediately recognized this planet.

"Togawa." She whispered.

At this time, someone shouted to Lin Youde: "What are you doing, the meeting is about to start!" Come over here! ”

Lin Youde followed the prestige and saw a person he didn't know, of course, but Lin Youde recognized the guy behind the person.

"Ah," said the silver-haired girl, "brother, you have indeed been swept up in the ropes." (To be continued......)
