10. Landing

Earth, the home planet of mankind.

It will be amazed by all aliens or non-human beings who have ever been to the solar system and seen the Earth with their own eyes.

It's not because it's too beautiful or too cherished, it's because it's too ordinary.

At least thousands, if not billions, of the universe known to have been explored around the world are located in the habitable zone defined by human beings, with the same thick atmosphere and oceans larger than land.

It is hard to imagine that this ordinary planet could not be more ordinary has given birth to perhaps the most terrifying, destructive and self-destructive race in the universe - human beings.

However, mankind still regards the earth as the most precious pearl in the universe.

In the past, most of the planet's land and even the sea were covered by human industrial facilities, the water was dark green, and the sky remained a dull yellow hue all day long.

However, when human beings expanded outward at a terrifying speed, they continued to plunder all kinds of materials from the universe and went all out to change the planet Earth back to a more primitive state, so that most of the once huge urban agglomerations and human footprints were covered by green again, leaving only the ten major metropolitan areas and the protection stations scattered in the green like a starry sky.

And humans arrogantly change all their favorite planets to Earth, rather than choosing to adapt to a different environment than their home planet.

Of course, the current nature reserve on Earth, the home planet of mankind, also has the function and task of cultivating animals and plants and using them to transform the planetary environment.

It can be said that colony stars based on the ecosystem of the modified planet are almost non-existent in the UN's sphere of influence, and the vast majority of colony stars were initially transformed by relying on the ecosystem cultivated on the earth as the cornerstone.

In addition, the earth is also home to 56 percent of human institutions of higher learning, 46 percent of scientific research institutions and about 70 percent of financial institutions, and 80 percent of the top 500 human enterprises are headquartered on the earth.

If the UN headquarters had not been moved to the United System one hundred and thirty years ago, Earth would have been the political, economic, scientific and cultural center of the United Nations.

But even so, the earth is still the cultural, technological and economic center of mankind, and has an almost irreplaceable position in the minds and societies of mankind.

But!

However, among the top ten metropolitan areas on earth, the total number of soldiers and officers of the planetary defense forces around the Shanghai metropolitan area is less than 10,000!

And because of the problem of life style, when the Zerg invaded 10 minutes later, I am afraid that less than 5,000 people survived.

It is almost a fantasy for 5,000 people to protect a city of 30 million people, but if you don't go, you have to go.

Under the iron orders of the upper echelons of the UN Planetary Defense Force, the man who just seemed to be out of danger must go to the current unclear situation in the Shanghai metropolitan area to evacuate the people as much as possible and eliminate the sudden Zerg as much as possible, just like the soldiers who have experienced the same experience as him.

"Hehe, the strength is four thousand eight hundred and seventy-six, what can you do?" Holding on to the door of the UH-2000 multi-purpose utility helicopter, An Kang can clearly see that the bright lights of the Shanghai metropolitan area in the past and evening are gradually disappearing.

The UH-2000 utility helicopter he flew in was surrounded by a large fleet of S-26 unmanned transport aircraft and ZY-15 battlefield support aircraft, as well as a small number of UH-2000 utility helicopters and unmanned fighter jets.

However, there was only one living person in this fleet, and the nearest soldier was more than 20 kilometers away from Ankang.

So in this place, Ankang can only rely on himself and his own drones.

Ankang's fleet is flying over a big river, this river was once called the Huangpu River, is the mother river of Shanghai, but now the glorious river surface is empty and unpopular, Ankang opened the hatch of the general helicopter, and even with the assistance of power armor, he can see the wreckage of the suspension boat and the suspension car on the river with the naked eye, as well as the minced meat of the Zerg airborne cabin.

The whole scene reveals an eerie silence, with no moving insect swarms visible below the swarm, only the dark river surface and blood-stained willows on the riverside, bare and not even a few remnants of willows.

Along the way, the human life response detector has not sounded from beginning to end, although Ankang itself does not feel much, but the solemn mood is undoubtedly aggravated.

Swallowing a mouthful of spit, Ankang pulled the hatch of the UH-2000, but at this time, the alarm suddenly sounded.

With the operation of the on-board computer, the S26 transport aircraft and the UH-2000 and ZY-15 on-board weapons poured fire on the ground at the same time.

"Ziziz....Ankang, what's going on with you?"

"I don't know, wait, a lot, a lot....a lot....a lot of zerg!"

"Zerg? Ground Zizziz... Came out of nowhere? ”

"Yes, I just looked down from the helicopter, and it was full of animals, like the great migration of animals in the African savannah, and so many animals just came out of nowhere."

An Kang heard Major Xu Zongfu's inquiry in the communication channel, and then immediately replied loudly, but An Kang also found that there seemed to be noise in the process of communication, and this situation became more and more obvious.

"Major, there is a clear murmur in the communication, there may be a source of interference in the swarm, do you need to use hyperspace communication to communicate?"

"What do you say? Zzzi loses the bag and weighs it. ”

"Inform the whole army, switch to hyperspace communications, repeat, switch to hyperspace communications, the enemy has the ability to jam the radio. The number of swarms on the battlefield began to increase significantly, repeating, the number of swarms on the battlefield began to increase significantly, and the reason is not known at the moment, remember to be careful. ”

Pulling open the helicopter's hatch, Ankang saw an extremely magnificent scene. On the banks of the Huangpu River, an innumerable number of insect swarms are "gushing out" from a place where even the light is clearly distorted, but electromagnetic cannons and honeycomb rockets are raining down on the heads of the swarms that are running forward. However, those leopard-type zergs are still only running forward mechanically, only the first few try to jump up to attack the group, but due to the limited jump power and dense barrage, these leopard-type zergs who try to jump up and attack the group will be broken into pieces when they jump.

An Kang glanced at the map in the helicopter cabin, and then moved his fingers a few times, and the entire huge fleet began to slowly lower in altitude, and five of the battlefield support aircraft quickly broke away from the group, carrying sci-fi and simple unmanned tanks and sliding to the ground.

Standing next to the hatch of the UH-2000 utility helicopter, Ankang in the sky saw that the battlefield support aircraft carrying dozens of tons of unmanned tanks slid down to a height of only 8 meters from the ground within a minute, and then the magnetic lock that locked the unmanned tank stopped operating in an instant.
