Chapter 188: "Whack-a-Mole"
After resting for half an hour, using construction robots to scavenge all the neutron vines of the Reva Thousand Machines, Qin Huang heard a mysterious voice again: "The second assessment has begun, do you want to continue to participate?" ”
"Go on!" Qin Huang replied.
A large diamond-shaped light pattern suddenly appeared under his feet, like an enlarged version of snowflakes, and a force field was formed, and after a burst of light and shadow changes, the "Dark Demon Spider" mecha had disappeared.
By the time Qin Huang's vision became clear again, he was already on a blood-red wilderness.
Desolate and silent, lifeless, empty and lofty!
That was his first impression of the place. The earth is red, and the peaks, plains, and hills in the distance are all based on red, and you can't feel the breath of life.
Even the sky overhead showed a palpitating dark red and pitch black, and the blood-colored sun hung in the sky, spitting blazing light and heat.
"I see, this ...... It should be the earth in the primeval era, or some primordial planet in the universe that has just formed and solidified! Qin Huang said.
The environmental detection and analysis module on the mecha has given the relevant numbers, and the air composition is mainly carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, water vapor, etc., and there is no oxygen storage at all.
The red color of the ground is due to the fact that the soil is rich in iron, and there is no higher life, only a few low-level bacteria and microorganisms, and even primitive lakes and rivers.
"At the beginning of the assessment, your mission is to clear the surface of the alien lifeforms that are lurking on the surface for three hours. Determine your final reward based on mission completion! A mysterious voice came.
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding strata quietly changed. In Qin Huang's perception, it was as if some kind of obscure energy field had suddenly withdrawn. Some special structures have been revealed beneath the shallow surface.
At a depth of no more than a meter from the ground, there were many burrows scattered in a haphazard manner, and in each cave was buried something the size of a water tank, shaped like a large silkworm cocoon, with countless gray-brown spots on the surface.
From the strange cocoon, you can feel the vague fluctuations of life, it should be the kind of alien life of unknown origin.
Of course, only a few of them have life fluctuations, and many more of them are empty, or there is not the slightest energy reaction in the cocoon.
And the number of such crypts is extremely large, all over the mountains, almost spreading to the end of his perception!
Qin Huang frowned slightly. After thinking about controlling the mecha to move a few steps, the crypt closest to his location immediately moved, and the alien life inside sensed that the foreign living creature was approaching, and it did not have the same kind of breath, thinking that it was rare food to come to the door, and suddenly woke up quickly from its dormant state!
Just a dozen seconds later, the ground tumbled, and a long-horned compound eye creature with a dark red body and scaly armor like a mutated hippopotamus crawled out, and the beast's mouth was open, revealing its fine forest teeth, and it spat out a milky white compressed air bomb at the tall mecha nearby.
Qin Huang didn't choose to dodge. Instead, he quietly opened the energy shield to the maximum, and he suffered this blow!
"Boom!"
The transparent light mask fluctuated for a while, and the part of the bullet rippled in circles, and then it was stabilized.
"One one and two hundredths......" Qin Huang glanced at the defense consumption index of the energy shield. I immediately estimated the strength level of this guy in my heart, and he should belong to a veritable silver junior mecha master.
The slashing light knife activated, and it slashed out with great speed. The guy reacted extremely quickly, and the hideous beast's mouth bit the energy light blade at once. Suddenly green smoke and a strange smell of burnt flesh rose from the beast's mouth, causing it to let out a strange and terrible scream.
The Energy Light Blade seems calm on the surface. In fact, with an extremely high temperature, that guy didn't know the details of this weapon, and he bit down stupidly, and instantly let himself suffer a fatal blow!
The blade shook slightly, piercing this guy's body directly, and its strong vitality supported it to struggle for a while before it died!
"It doesn't look like this test will be going well!" Qin Huang groaned.
It's just a guy with one head and two heads, if a large group of people pop up at the same time, even if he can't withstand it with his current strength, it will definitely be very uncomfortable at that time.
But the central system of the base only gives three hours of time, and if you find the crypts one by one, it will definitely not be enough! It is almost impossible for ordinary students to successfully complete this task.
"Crimson, it's up to you this time!" Qin Huang said.
"No problem, people are responsible for sensing targets, you just have to let it go!" After many close cooperations, Qilan instantly understood what he meant.
The "Dark Demon Spider" mecha slowly floated in the air, the ship-slashing light knife was retracted, and the light particle rapid-fire cannon was activated, locking on a crypt a hundred meters away.
The muzzle of the cannon flashed, and the blue and white high-energy beams instantly pierced through the shallow formation, opening a large hole in the silkworm cocoon inside! The creature was mortally wounded before he could wake up, and his broken body struggled weakly for a few moments before it was silent.
"Good, that's it!"
Qin Huang nodded with satisfaction, the particle rapid-fire cannon that he had upgraded and transformed with his own hands was infused with five units of starstriped titanium silver, the power was really not to be said, as long as it was sixty-five percent of the power, one launch could kill a guy like this!
So the mecha was suspended at a height of hundreds of meters, playing the game of "whack-a-mole", guided by Qilan's super sensing ability, basically every shot means the death of an alien, and there is rarely a time to miss.
……
“…… This place is not for people! ”
Chen Mengxuan looked back at the black primeval jungle behind him, and his heart palpitated.
She was besieged by a large group of strange creatures in it, and it took a lot of effort to barely get through, and when she first came in, it was still a brand new silver mecha, and at the moment the clean and smooth surface had already brought some scars, but fortunately, it was not a major problem, and it did not affect her combat ability for the time being.
The double-edged spear in her hand was as clean as new, and it was with this fine weapon from the hands of the "Nebula Master" that she was able to get out of the ghost behind her.
"I don't know who this mysterious mecha creator is, if only he could customize an optimized mecha for me, it's worth the extra money!" She muttered to herself.
The family has used a lot of connections to make secret visits in the front-line legions, but even the senior generals who have a good relationship with the family all say in unison that there is no such an outstanding mecha creator as Zài in the federal army, which makes the head of the Chen family very dissatisfied.
I think it must be that those bastards are afraid that the family will dig their walls, so they killed Cun Zài, who did not recognize the "Nebula Master".
"Hmmm! When you go back, you must step up your investigation, no matter how much it costs, you must also invite this master to the family as a guest, if you can recruit him, it will be even better! She thought.
……
Outside the base, near the planet's synchronous orbit, there was a sea of fire at the moment.
The Federation's garrison fleet was being besieged by the Vortikol fleet, which outnumbered several times the number of the fleet, and despite the fleet commander's best efforts to organize a counterattack, it was inevitable that it would be beaten back.
Originally, the fleet of the Modeca Caliphate had the intention of abandoning this star system! The Federation fleet has largely gained a foothold.
But I don't know what happened, half a day ago, the caliph suddenly took out the money to take care of the family, and nearly 50,000 warships rushed over like crazy, regardless of casualties, and attacked the twilight!
As a result, the good battle situation quickly deteriorated and reversed, and it fell into a lot of trouble!
"Sir, the brothers can't hold it anymore, will you retreat first?"
In the flagship command room, the adjutant wiped his sweat and said to Major General Sun Qianren, whose face was blue and his teeth were clenched.
The major general said hatefully: "Retreat? And what about the brothers on the ground? Throw it all to the damn wretches on the other side? That's tens of thousands of brothers, and the group of elites who entered the base, if we don't care about them all, we won't be able to escape the end of a military court when we go back! ”
"But there are hundreds of thousands of brothers in our fleet! You should know better than I am! The adjutant insisted.
The major general's face became darker and darker, and he was silent for a while before asking, "What about our reinforcements?" How long will it take? ”
The adjutant smiled bitterly and spread his hands and said, "The 60,000 warships that reinforced were entangled by the fleets of the other two caliphs on the way, and it will take at least four or five hours to wait for the second wave of reinforcements!" ”
"......" (To be continued......)
