Chapter 523: An Unplanned Battle

When the Master Chief heard the words of Sergeant Johnson next to him, he suddenly remembered that he was carrying a large guy on his back that he had never used, that is, the M-920 Cain Cannon that Cortana had reminded him to bring before they left the ship, but had been warning him not to use it in the cramped area.

"If this thing works, we probably won't need any tanks!" Master Chief said as he took out the Cain cannon and examined it. Although I can't see the lethality principle of this heavy weapon, looking at the barrel structure, this is definitely a direct-fire weapon.

The safety and trigger on the weapon were also obviously designed for humans, and he still recognized the danger represented by the nuclear radiation logo on the barrel of the Cain gun, but he didn't know what its lethality was.

"All the previous weapon lists are the same as in the manual, if this big guy also echoes the description of its manual, then we undoubtedly have a huge firepower advantage!" However, it should also be noted that according to the instructions, this weapon has a large killing range, and it takes at least 10 minutes to cool down after a single shot. If you must use it, be sure to aim for it! ”

Cortana knew that Master Chief had taken out his weapon to ask her what she thought, and after thinking about it, she still didn't say anything, but just simplified the long clause on the instruction manual and told it to Master Chief.

"How big is the killing range of this "cannon"? Also, is it really dangerous or not? Master Chief continued to ask. After all, according to his conjecture, it is impossible for ordinary heavy weapons to be marked with radiation hazards, and most of the equipment with such markings is very delicate, and there is a danger of self-detonation in the process of using them if they are not used properly.

"If the number jΓΉ given in this electronic instruction manual is correct, this thing is nuclear fusion power, I don't know how it accelerates, but it fires a physical projectile. If the speed of discharging given in the manual is correct, the power of this gun is almost equivalent to the explosion of 200 tons of TNT, and the radius of the shock wave is at least 100 meters! Cortana couldn't believe it.

Although the Cain Cannon is very sturdy and tough, anyone who looks at it will know that it is a heavy weapon, but trying to associate this thing that is not much larger than a PC console case with the power of a small nuclear weapon. It still takes some imagination.

A few minutes later, after carefully observing the situation on the ground, Master Chief decided to go with the plan he had just developed, and he asked Sergeant Johnson to assemble their Marine Corps, while he himself ventured around with a few ODST veterans and leaned closer to the enemy.

After a careful detour of ten minutes, Master Chief and the others went around to the other side of the enemy, found a good firing position and hid it, and set up an ambush here so that after a while Sergeant Johnson and they arrived at the position, they formed a cross-fire from front to back. Hit the enemy to the maximum.

The shelter of the new ambush position they had carefully arrived at was only about 300 meters away from their target, the Golden Armor Elite, which was very suitable for ambushes. All that's left is to wait for Sergeant Johnson to get ready on the other side of the front.

At this time, the elite commander of the golden armor on the scene finally found what he was looking for, and a gnoll soldier found the weapon he wanted in a corner of the battlefield, and then trotted all the way to hand it to him. This is a Gauss rifle with a damaged butt and still stained with blood.

After getting the weapon, the elite commander of the golden armor tried two shots at the place where no one was. As a result, like the Noble squad he had tried before, he was taken aback by the weapon's penetrating power.

"Mankind has such a powerful new weapon! The Golden Armor Elite Commander was surprised in his heart. His first thought was to quickly inform the other friendly units. Otherwise, they will repeat the same mistakes in future ground battles. Soon, but within a few minutes, they made a new discovery, and the nearby infantry found several more human weapons that they had never seen before.

Just as he was wondering where these new weapons came from, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed a small spot of light flashing from a bush a few hundred meters behind him, which was still dark red at first. But it took less than a second for the red dot to turn orange.

Experienced in combat, he immediately recognized the danger, and although he couldn't determine what the point of light in the distance was, he instinctively sensed that it was the muzzle of a weapon. And the discoloration of the muzzle undoubtedly means that the weapon is being charged.

"Spread out ......! The Golden Armor Elite Commander hurriedly shouted to the surroundings, and then immediately ran towards the transport ship not far away. That's the largest bunker in the neighborhood. It's a pity. His warning didn't have much effect, as most of the Covenant troops on the scene were typical "elite troops" of the Covenant.

That is to say, these guys are all warriors who dare to fight on the battlefield and accumulate and kill several people, but because they have always been ahead of humans in weapons and protection technology, few of the elite troops of the Star Alliance rely on agility or careful evasion of enemy fire to obtain military merits.

Even a few people who are as aware of the danger as that golden-armored elite are not very worried about their situation, it is not the first time that they have clashed with humans, and naturally they all know how many catties and taels humans have, and the most powerful individual weapon in the hands of humans is not enough to break through the shields on their elite troops in seconds.

Supported by this misconception, some of them also followed the instructions of the Golden Armor Elite to see the muzzle of the cannon in the distance, but they did not think that they needed to dodge. On the contrary, many of them began to raise their guns and began to charge, as was customary. Soon, they will realize how wrong they have been.

In contrast, the Golden-Armored Elite Commander's guess and response plan was very correct, and the point of light he saw out of the corner of his eye was indeed a heavy security threat, and it was the Master Chief who was holding the Cain cannon and shooting at them.

Since it was the first time he had used the Cain Cannon, the Master Chief didn't know that it would take so long for this weapon to shoot, he had already held down the trigger for more than 1 second according to the instructions, and the weapon in his hand was still charging! Sure enough, during the long recharge, the glow from the muzzle of the gun attracted the attention of the enemy.

"How long will this thing be charged?" Master Chief asked Cortana, at this time, the Covenant infantry on the opposite side were already charging with their guns raised, and it was estimated that there would be a burst of fierce plasma fire in a few tenths of a second. If he hadn't fired his weapon by then, he would have been shot into a hornet's nest.

"It should be good now, release the trigger!" Cortana's high-speed nerve link informed the Master Chief. At this time, the Cain cannon in the Master Chief's hand had been charged according to the instructions under her timer for two seconds, and when it met the requirements of the manual, the weapon would activate when the trigger was released.

After getting the answer that he could release the trigger, the Master Chief took about a second to adjust the direction of aim, and the enemy's changes forced him to adjust his aim, and at this time the target he was aiming at was no longer the golden-armored elite who had just run out of his field of vision, but the elite troops of the Star Covenant in the field. As long as you can eliminate these guys in the field, it will be much easier to deal with that golden armor elite.

After he released the trigger, the Cain cannon finally launched the projectile in its own chamber that had accelerated to the limit. At this time, the light emitted from the barrel of the cannon was already white enough to blind the human eye. With this dazzling white light, the projectile hit the ground in the center of the crowd with great accuracy, and a violent impact explosion occurred.

A violent shock wave instantly spread a few hundred meters nearby, and the ground shook violently. A not-so-standard mushroom cloud also rose in the center of the explosion. A large amount of dust and pebbles were blasted into the sky by the explosion, and the dust mass from the explosion at the scene completely obscured their view.

A few seconds later, a large number of small pebbles fell to the ground within hundreds of meters of the vicinity at a very high speed, and the sound of these small pebbles when they hit the ground was very similar to the sound of a bullet hitting the ground, and it hurt to hit people. Several ODSTs around the Master Chief cried out in pain after being hit.

And they are still outside the killing range of the weapon, which shows how powerful the explosion just now is. Not to mention what about the people who are within the kill range. The Golden Armor Elite, who had thought they were in a safe place in the bunker, was suddenly sent flying out more than ten meters away by a sudden shock wave before they were about to stop.

His shield was instantly cleared, and the whole person was thrown out by the shockwave like a kite with a broken string, and it rolled several times before it stopped. The internal injuries caused by the impact caused him to vomit a large amount of blood and quickly lose consciousness.

Compared to most of the Covenant soldiers in the field, he was still lucky, after all, he was dozens of meters away from the center of the explosion, and the Covenant transport ship that he used as cover also played a role in weakening the shock wave, otherwise he should have been torn to pieces by the violent shock wave like most of the Covenant infantry in the field.

"This thing is really so strong! Where did our secret patron come from? Cortana? "The Master Chief was a little surprised when he saw the destructive effects on the scene, and he didn't really expect anyone to answer his own questions.

However, Cortana's sluggish reflexes made him strange. According to what he knew about Cortana, she should have been as surprised by the effect of the weapons on the scene as he was, and at least made a few hindsightful comments to tease her, but contrary to what he had imagined, after this extremely successful blow, Cortana stopped speaking as if she was in deep thought.
