Before opening the chapter, it should be noted that there will be some third-person portrayal of the experiences of Union soldiers in this volume, such as this chapter. :3.In addition, the long-awaited main story is finally about to begin, if I don't turn it into a variety of undisciplined daily routines.

Straight to the point.

Sekir was a large trading port city of the Confederacy, and since it had never been fought in World War II, it was larger than Haejo. The city was a favorite of merchants, as most of the trade between the Commonwealth and the Kingdom was done here. A large number of cargo ships come and go in and out of the port every day, and the city is bustling with countless high-rise buildings, making the city look more and more prosperous.

At least on the surface.

The excellent harbor was used not only as a dock for merchant ships, but also as a military port for warships, and as the only city in the world that allowed fighter jets to reach the kingdom mainland (without aerial refueling), it also built a large military airfield and a military base for the deployment of ground troops.

Whether it is for the empire or the kingdom, the Federation has never been at ease. However, during this time, because the three major countries were in a state of cooperation that shocked the jaws of the whole world, the federal army stationed in Sekir City was no longer as nervous as before - after all, Sekir was not like Yucheng, it was very close to the kingdom, and it was close to the sea, and it had to face the threat of the kingdom's sea fleet every day.

But they will still do what should be done, no matter how unreasonable it may seem.

Lieutenant Hansen is the commander of a small ground force with a good personality that doesn't like to talk much. Although he is a newcomer who just joined the army half a year ago. But he was heavily used by his immediate boss, Colonel Kjer. For no other reason, this young lieutenant had participated in the battle that was almost like a meat grinder's plant attack not long ago, and had quite valuable combat experience.

That's something you can't experience no matter how many times you've done drills.

Now, Hansen was rushing to the dock where the supply ship was docked with his small force of one tank, four infantry fighting vehicles, and forty infantrymen. Originally, Kjer's troops were going to move to other cities, but not long after they left the base and entered the city, something strange happened, so the command decisively sent the unit closest to the accident site and heavily armed to investigate.

Then Kjer sent Hansen over.

It's simple, but it's not easy. A cargo ship entering the port stopped for about half an hour and no one came down, and the busy port staff finally noticed the abnormality and tried to contact the other party in various ways. No reply was received. Nor did I see half a figure on the ship.

Considering that the cargo ship might have been held hostage by terrorists, the staff called the police. This would have been a normal development, but the key problem was that the SWAT officers, armed to the teeth, had not detected human presence inside the ship with their instruments.

Could it be that this is a legendary ghost ship? SWAT officers burst into the ship with weapons. And then...... There is no then. Indicated by the detection instruments deployed outside. Something moving in the cabin attacked the SWAT team members who rushed in, but it was not clear what the other party was.

"So. Our mission is to get rid of the ghosts, huh?" Hansen, sitting in the tank, asked into the radio with black lines, "Colonel, are you sure you're not joking with me?"

"The police have lost more than 20 people, I will joke with you with this kind of thing?" A middle-aged man's slightly hoarse and deep voice came over the radio, "When you get to the dock, don't worry about anything and bombard it directly! No matter what is hidden in the boat, it will naturally jump out after poking their nest." ”

"Understood, sir. But Colonel, if it's like the last plant and there are some strange monsters in it......"

"You're right. Well, Thomas's armored forces will arrive in 1o minutes, and you can keep an eye on the ship in the harbor and wait until you've joined him up and set up a formation. Kjer paused as he spoke, "Unless something hidden in the ship is the first to act." ”

"Okay. ”

By the time Hansen hung up, the team had already arrived at the docks. Civilians in this area have been invited by the police far away, and the rising sun shines on the empty dock full of various containers, making the scene look a little strange.

Normally, the dock is very lively and noisy at this time.

Hansen, who poked his body out of the top hatch, looked at the cargo ship that had been surrounded by a group of heavily armed police officers on three floors, and now it had a great and significant difference from the imaginary ghost ship, that is: this modern cargo ship was eighty percent new, not a tattered and rusty old antique.

A man who looked a little obese, probably a police representative, strode towards the tank that had just stopped, and before Hansen could climb out to greet the other party, something made everyone present instantly stunned and froze in shock.

The sound of metal striking came from inside the cabin, and it was very loud and clear!

Bet with the soap of the whole year, Hansen didn't think it was the sound of a rat in the cabin accidentally knocking over a metal can.

"Prepare for battle. The young lieutenant Xun instructed his subordinates, "All the infantrymen get out of the car, and if you see anything unfriendly to humans, you can shoot freely without waiting for orders!"

The turret of the tank rotated and pointed the black hole muzzle at the ship's side, and Hansen also raised his machine gun and watched the ship nervously. Just when there was no movement from the other party for a long time, giving people a feeling as if they had just heard something wrong, a louder voice than before immediately shook everyone's hearts.

At the same time, the metal plates on the surface of the ship's side were also chiseled through from the inside.

It was sharp and slender, and it looked a bit like a crab leg. But it didn't feel like a living thing, more like some kind of opaque crystal, reflecting a brilliant and beautiful lilac in the morning light. From afar, Hansen couldn't help but think of the glass on the outside of the tall building that glistened in the sun, but it was clear that the glass could never have such an exaggerated hardness.

and sharpness - the lieutenant who saw the crab leg and then lightly cut the metal plate like a cake broke out in a cold sweat on the spot.

A large piece of the metal plate was gorgeously cut off, and it fell into the water with a thud, splashing countless waves. Out of the gap in the side of the ship, which had been opened by something with brute force, came a strange humanoid object.

What is that? A man made of crystals, or crystals in human form? What's even more terrifying is that from the gap, the entire interior of the cabin is covered with this strange lilac, like a strange lair coated in disgusting slime.

"Fire the cannon, kill that thing. Hansen did not hesitate to order the crew.

Most of the troops were old birds who had fought with plants with the young lieutenant, so they carried out his orders decisively. However, just a second before the tank fired, the "crystal man" suddenly stretched out several "crab legs" from behind his back, and shot some kind of piercing white beam from the tip of the leg.

A police light armored vehicle was instantly turned into burning scrap metal. As for the monster itself, it was immediately reduced to countless fragments in the violent explosion of tank shells.

Is it the legendary laser weapon, or is it magic with the same effect? Hansen wasn't sure, but at least the monster wasn't indestructible, and knowing it was enough to rest assured.

However, the lieutenant's relief was a little too early, because there were many various crystal monsters peeking out of the gap, eyeing the people on the docks. Some of these things don't have a uniform appearance, some resemble insects, some resemble quadrupeds, and some are simply strange things that can make abstract masters cry on the spot, but they all have one thing in common, that is, a pair of crimson pupilless eyes on the head.

At 7:13 a.m. Federal Time and 15:49 p.m. Imperial Time, the first contact battle between humans and this amethyst monster officially began.

Hansen fired less than half of the bullets from his machine gun and ducked back into the tank. There are very few monsters that can shoot white beams, and most of them produce sharp diamond-shaped crystals, all as thick as a pen holder, and they are a great threat to infantry. It's really cool to kill all sides with a machine gun like the protagonist, but the lieutenant knows very well that reality and making movies are completely different things, and there is no difference between such hateful behavior and taking the initiative to find a smoke, and it's better to be a low-key person.

Just listening to the tinkling of these crystals on the surface armor is already tingling.

"Colonel, the contents of the ship are indeed a bunch of unfriendly monsters. Hansen took the time to report earnestly to Kjerre, "They have more amazing combat abilities than plants, most of them have long-range attacks, and some can even shoot high-powered lasers, but they can still destroy each other with normal firepower. ”

"Very good Hansen, can you hold the docks?"

"Although the casualties of the police officers are relatively large, there should be no problem. Hansen assessed the situation for a moment, and affirmed, "After all, Captain Thomas's troops are about to arrive......

"Lieutenant, come and see!" cried out the soldier who had taken over Hansen's observation of the outside world with a sudden look of horror on his face.

Suspicious, Hansen stepped forward, looked closely, and then returned to the radio: "Sorry Colonel, the dock can't be held. And I think it's better to sound the alarm in the city now, and then send all the troops in the base to the city to set up defenses. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The same monster appeared on the surface of the sea, and ...... That's a lot!" (To be continued!)
