Chapter 4: Shocking Armor

Supply lines under attack? Who did this to you? What did the bugs do?

Ordinary insects definitely don't have this kind of mind, it must be done by brain worms.

Adventurers naturally have such thoughts, and those who have seen the Galaxy Clans know that this group of bugs seems to be primitive and stupid, but in fact there is a leader with superior intelligence, the brain worm, who is commanding behind the scenes.

But the characters in the plot are completely unaware of the existence of brain worms, and even if someone puts forward a conjecture that there is a "smart worm" based on the movement of the worm, they are all ridiculed by the so-called experts and professors and public opinion.

Bugs are wise, are you TM teasing me?

Even in the original work, human beings were impassioned, stupidly rushed into the hinterland, were hit by insects, and died more than 100,000 in just a few hours. Not many people believe that bugs are intelligent!

At most, this is just human carelessness, the bugs make a small ambush, and the beasts of nature will do the same!

Even if simple ambushes and raids can be explained by animal instinct, now, going around to the rear and directly cutting off the supply line, this kind of behavior, except for wisdom, has no other reason to explain!

When mankind has not yet paid a heavy price, it realizes the horror of the enemy, which is equivalent to removing the problem of underestimating the enemy for mankind! This is tantamount to improving the strength of human beings in disguise, and once again reducing the difficulty of facing bugs!

On the surface, this is the case, but there is no such good thing in the world, the more help, the stronger the opponent!!

There are secret weapons, no longer underestimating enemies, and adventurers to help...... How hard are these bugs to deal with?

But now all adventurers can do is follow the main story. At the moment when the instructor issued the announcement, all adventurers received the information that the first step of the main quest had been completed, and with it, in addition to the 5,000 points received, there was also the second step of the mission.

Main quest step 2: Go to the front line, land on Klendasu and participate in the Wormhole War.

Reward: 5,000 credits for completing the main quest step 3.

…………

Klendasu is the planet controlled by the Arachi Zerg, and it is also the target of this human war. Asking adventurers to land, to put it bluntly, is not allowed to stay in the logistics department to grind foreign workers, squeeze your head to enter the pioneer department, and go to the front line to fight!

Well, that's the style of the system! Adventurers are not afraid to fight, and what secret weapons the swarm has, you will know it by trying.

Even if the enemy is really strong, it won't be enough to kill the second step of the mission, and there is definitely a chance to survive!

There was no need to bother leaving the earth, and under the supervision of the instructors, the recruits reported on their heads and began to make preparations. And along with the recruits who left the earth together, there were also those power armors that were used in actual combat!

The information released in the morning, at noon, the Air Force warships responsible for transporting recruits came to the barracks, a total of six, each of which looked like an aircraft carrier floating in the air. Of course, this was when the battleship was still at high altitude, and when the three behemoths slowly landed, the recruits realized that their estimates were too conservative!

These space warships are thousands of meters long and nearly 300 meters wide, and each of them can accommodate more than 3,000 heavily armed armored warriors while ensuring fuel and supplies.

For the first time, the instructors allowed their recruits to wear actual combat power armor, and the first training required them to board the battleship smoothly and comfortably, and immobilize their bodies!

These power armors are much more flexible than the old ones used before, they come with a complete power assist system, and there are balance devices, which can do more flexible movements and operate more freely.

But don't think that it will be easy to get into Jane, as a high-level power armor, it is also more advanced and complex to operate than the old machine, and it suddenly becomes flexible, just like a patient who has been paralyzed for many years can suddenly walk, and the recruits will inevitably have fluttering feet and twisting and twisting.

The adventurers did not find it a challenge, but took the opportunity to investigate the various attributes of the equipment.

The first is the power, which can provide more than two tons of extra power, and wearing this can easily overturn a car.

And then there is mobility, which, wearing this suit of armor, allows an average person to run at a speed of sixty kilometers per hour. If you need to accelerate instantaneously or jump over a cliff, there is also an emergency jet that allows the armor to accelerate over short distances.

Firepower, the back of the armor is equipped with a weapon interface, equipped with a professional weapon case, and if necessary, it can carry a heavy weapon of up to a ton, bringing constant and ferocious firepower to the dealer.

Durable, the power armor uses high-capacity batteries as an energy source, and can continue high-intensity combat for more than 20 hours when fully charged, while generally each power armor will also carry at least two spare batteries, which can theoretically fight for 60 hours in a row! If the soldiers inside can withstand it......

It takes more than a week to get from Earth to Klendasu, during which the recruits are training on the ship to adapt, and the military camp on Earth is also cleaning up the old machines that have been tossed by these recruits. Although they look shabby, they are actually properly maintained, at least to keep them moving, in preparation for the next batch of recruits.

During the inspection, a repairman found an old armor that was deformed by Yan Zòng, and a chalk cross was faintly visible on the arm of this armor......

"This is ......" the old repairman widened his eyes, "Isn't this a scrapped mech?" Was it repaired and trained? He hurriedly planned to start the check, but the power indicator only flickered slightly and went out, and it couldn't be started at all!

He called in a few helpers and lifted the rear hatch with a crowbar, only to finally see what was inside. Whether it is the instrument panel or the special various sensor operating devices, all have been scrapped, and the joints are completely rusted...... At least it must have been, the rust showed that the joints were completely immobile, but lately, it seemed to have been twisted by some great force, rubbing all the rust off the joints.

Not only that, some joints could not move at all, they were also broken by the strange force, and even made movements that this model could not do at all, and some joints and even armor were twisted and deformed, as if they had been ravaged by tank bugs!

"This is absolutely not normal!" The repairmen were very surprised, and immediately reported the situation, and after the engineering department was identified by professional instruments, it could be concluded that it was not an attack from the outside world, but more like a sabotage from the inside out!

After analysis, the chief engineer reported the results to the top of the army, and a general from motorized infantry received him, looked at the rather young engineer, and said in his majestic and magnetic voice: "Has this situation happened before?" ”

The engineer shook his head: "There has never been a precedent for this situation......" As he spoke, he paused and looked at the general: "Although it sounds a little unbelievable, after discussion, our engineering department agreed that there is only one way to cause this result!" ”

The general frowned: "What? ”

The engineer swallowed: "Let a very strong person enter this power armor, not driven by armor, but completely driven by brute force, just like ancient knights wearing heavy plate armor!" ”

Twenty years ago, if the old general heard someone say this to him, he must have scolded him for being bloody! Such an old power armor, which weighs more than 800 kilograms, can wear this action if it is not activated?

But now, the old general is not angry, because he knows that a secret unit in the human army can really do such a thing!

"You've also participated in Project Arachi, you should know the ability of those insects to transform people!" The old general frowned: "Do you think they can move freely in the unactivated power armor?" ”

The engineer sighed: "We have already discussed this problem, and it is completely possible to transform people into insects with less than a ton of power armor...... But the problem is that the armor is not only heavy, but the joints are also rusted, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a welded humanoid mold...... But such an iron lump was still twisted and deformed by life, and I took it to training for several days...... I think even the strongest transhuman, I'm afraid it's hard to do it! ”

"You mean to say that there is a monster that is stronger than the strongest transhuman, infiltrated our boot camp and, along with tens of thousands of our recruits, is now on its way to the front lines of war on a spaceship?" The general stood up, his huge fist clenched, "And we humans don't know anything about it?" ”

Cold sweat oozed from the engineer's forehead: "I'm afraid he's much stronger than we thought!" If he really wants to infiltrate the lurking and finds that his training armor can't be activated, he will definitely change it, and there is no need to make such a shocking work! ”

The general narrowed his eyes: "Is it a demonstration?" ”

The engineer shook his head: "If it's okay, I'm afraid, he didn't realize that his power armor was rusted to death!" ”

The general's eyes widened, and the engineer's implication was that to that monster, the little resistance caused by the power armor was insignificant! For it, the steel armor wrapped around its body, which is enough to withstand the attacks of heavy weapons, is no different from waste paper!

Thinking of this, the general immediately picked up the communicator and contacted the communications department: "Hurry up, give me the transport ship that is leaving!" ”

In the depths of the universe, the captains of those transports received a reminder from Earth at the same time, and everyone fell into worry.

I don't know which battleship hides such a terrifying monster? How do you find this?

"Can't identify the target?"

At this time, a female voice came from the command room of the second ship, and everyone turned their heads to look and found that it was a very beautiful woman, but when strangers saw her, their first attention must not be attracted by her delicate face, but they would look up and down at the slender figure...... It's too tall, although this is a woman, but it is taller than most men, at least one meter eighty-five...... No, one meter nine is possible!

And if the adventurers were here, they would definitely cry out in surprise, because this face was revealed at the end of that classified video, and this woman was the killer who had been tested before!

"Alicia?! Why did you come to the cab again? The female captain said angrily, but she had no intention of driving her away.

"Can't confirm...... Because that armor didn't start at all......"

"Then tell the earth to check one by one, the other armor has recorded information, and compared with the list of recruits, you can always find out!"
