Chapter 6 New Bases

"Whew~~~~", in the cry of dying, the four-meter-tall giant beast fell down with a bang, and dark blue blood gushed out like a fountain from the hollow of more than ten arms thick on its body, and the blood soon flowed all over the ground, forming a small puddle, and a group of fist-sized flying insects quickly gathered and hovered above the blood pool, making an annoying buzzing sound.

"Whew", a flame suddenly swept over the blood pool, and under the high temperature, the insect swarm directly carbonized into powder before it had time to make any reaction, leaving only a pungent scorching smell in the air.

There was a sound of metal clashing, and two metal golems with upper and lower body hemispherical shapes came out from behind a pile of rocks, and the front end of the right arm of one of them was still steaming, apparently from where the flames were spewing out. Two metal figures staggered towards the corpse, and in front of them, more than thirty spider-shaped metal golems were clinging to the ground, quickly interspersed and crawling. Before the humanoid reached the location of the corpse, the spider golem had already arrived, and the ends of the two forelimbs of these metal spiders had somehow turned into two high-speed circular saws, and the tough skin and thick muscles of the giant beast were easily cut in front of the circular saw like butter under a hot dinner knife.

The metal spider skillfully cut the beast into pieces, but only selected a part of the best quality skins and put them in the internal storage cabinet, and the rest was thrown away within a kilometer or two of the surrounding area, and after doing all this, the golems regrouped and began to move in an arc along some fixed route.

"Boom", the two arms of the humanoid puppet turned into weapons suddenly raised into the sky, but soon put it down again and resumed normal movement, and then, a shuttle dragged a long tail flame across the sky, flying towards a fixed target. There is no doubt that this is the vehicle that the volunteers are riding, through the display equipment, the captains have seen the scene of the patrolling puppets hunting the giant beasts, exciting, novelty, excitement, all kinds of emotions are mixed together, so that the captains even breathe a lot faster, although they still try to maintain reserve, but Shur looks no different from the barbarians who forcibly calm down after entering the city.

From the air, you can see that this is a wasteland with sparse vegetation and a wide view, with an arid surface and several fixed water sources. Around the water source, a large number of wild beasts live, and the loud howls of wild beasts can be heard day and night.

In the middle of the wasteland, directly opposite the shuttle, a giant humanoid puppet nearly ten meters tall was erected there, the puppet was motionless, as if it was sleeping, but the scanning system in its body was constantly working, and the two live-fire weapons on its shoulders were also slowly moving.

This is a giant puppet called the Thunder Hammer by the Brown Star People, the main energy cannon on the chest can penetrate the tail armor of the battleship, and even the upper front armor can cause a lot of damage, Xiuer They have done a confrontation test before, well, and then no one is ready to try again, like the giant beast face on this planet, I am afraid that it will be directly vaporized under the energy cannon, and there is not even a residue left. The two high-speed machine guns on the shoulders of the Thunderhammer are one of the few live weapons in the metal golem's standard loadout, with a rate of fire of tens to hundreds of rounds per minute, enough to blast a solid rock like a hill to pieces in a matter of seconds.

Within a radius of ten kilometers around it, hundreds of mechanical spiders and dozens of orbular combat humanoids patrolled the cross, ensuring that no dangerous creatures could approach the feet of the Thunderhammer, because at its feet, a metal platform with several separate buildings scattered around it had been built, and the platform was painted with orange and yellow crosses, which looked particularly conspicuous from the air. The outermost part of these buildings is separated from the outside world by a row of metal columns, but a closer look reveals that they are not ordinary metal columns, and the protective energy emits from the columns, intertwining with each other to form a hemispherical light curtain that holds the complex inside.

The color of the light curtain is very dim, almost difficult to detect with the naked eye, as if it has no effect, but when a small insect flies by, it can be seen, they are like hitting some elastic obstacle, as soon as they hit the light curtain, they are bounced away from afar, while medium-sized creatures like humans are not affected, or rather, the resistance of the light curtain is not an obstacle to their strength, and with a little force, they can break through the light curtain and enter the interior.

The shuttle circled above the camp several times to reduce its altitude, and then fell vertically towards the platform marked with a cross, as if alerted by the sound of the shuttle, and the two captains who arrived first greeted them from the nearby building.

As soon as it came to a standstill, and before even the roar of the engine equipment had dissipated, the cabin door was forced to open inadvertently, and a group of captains rushed out of the shuttle like a charge, and did not bother to greet the two greeters, passing them directly, rushing to the brown earth for the first time, stomping on the solid ground hard, jumping around like crazy, and some even picked up a handful of slightly moist soil, put it in front of their noses and sniffed greedily.

"Your Excellency. When he turned around, he found that Nina and Ryan were not as crazy as the others, but followed him and Moria, "Please don't blame them for their gaffes, most of our captains have never set foot on the real surface." Oh, from birth to death, I have always spent time on the spaceship, so I am so excited now, not only because there is the possibility of stopping and fleeing, but also because stepping on the ground, Kenneng is the long-cherished wish of most captains. ”

"Oh?" Shul raised an eyebrow, "Supposedly with your technology, it's not difficult to get down to the surface every time you repair supplies in the galaxy, why don't you usually go?"

"It's a rule that has been in place for thousands of years. Old Man Ryan shook his head and sighed, "The possibility of an accident on the ground is much higher than on the ship, and the captain dies unexpectedly without a new heir, it will be a very troublesome thing, so it is better to avoid it as much as possible." And more importantly, after all, everyone comes from the ground, but they have been adrift all their lives, and once they land, their fighting spirit will be worn out once, so from the beginning of the sleeping plan, there have been hard rules among the captains that unless there are some special circumstances, or they encounter the highest level of crisis, they are never allowed to land on the surface of the planet. ”

"Okay. Shure sighed, "No wonder the previous ones behaved like this, and I'm still wondering what it is like to roll on the ground all of a sudden." ”

"Ahem, ahem. One of the members of the survey team who greeted him coughed a few times with a slightly red face, and changed the subject, "Fellow citizens, welcome to our new home." ”
