Chapter 144: No! BT!!! (2-in-1)
Cameron's town hall was dimly lit.
The building's electrical utilities appear to have been vandalized long ago, and all lighting fixtures are no longer working. No one knows what dangers are hidden in those dark rooms.
These astral troops do not possess the same extraordinary eyesight as genetically modified space marines, and can see normally in low-light environments, as if it were daylight. But biological flaws can allow technology to intervene.
The Celestial Army's Tactical Visor is a piece of equipment that can receive high-frequency light waves, such as night vision or perspective vision. The dim light had no effect on them.
With the help of technology, the hidden cultists or rebels armed with guns and melee weapons in those rooms and in the entrances of the corridors have nothing to hide.
These astral forces have been practicing simulations in virtual space for hundreds of years on ships. The difficulties they have faced are diverse and the environment is complex beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Such an army would have no problem fighting against ordinary Space Marines.
The Sun Auxiliaries during the Great Expedition were able to compete with Space Marines in the single digits of battle losses. Compared with the former Sun Auxiliary Army, the current batch of Astral Army not only has more combat experience, but also has more advanced weapons and equipment.
The rebels in Cameron City Hall are like cute children compared to the ghosts and snakes they face in the virtual space.
A single gesture of the commander and a tactical sign language caused his Astral Army to react quickly. One by one, they cooperate with each other in an instant, and make the best battle formation according to the current situation. They were able to do this because of their mutual understanding.
Countless simulation training has made these astral troops very clear that only by training hard at ordinary times and forming a high degree of tacit understanding can they release their huge combat potential in the process of carrying out tasks.
The tacit understanding in action comes from the spiritual unity, and only by always thinking in one place can we form a tacit cooperation of "working hard in one place" and finally win the war.
The strength, speed, and defense of the Astral Army are no match for the many enemies the Empire faces. Therefore, the most commendable thing about the Astral Army in the past was courage and will.
But now, discipline and technology will make the Astral Army even stronger. They will be an important manifestation of the power of the empire and a strong cornerstone for maintaining the unity and stability of the empire.
These Astral Army, who had formed a battle formation, immediately launched an attack on the enemy in front of them with an order from the commander.
And the rebels hiding in the room didn't react at all. They didn't even realize that they had been discovered by the Astral Army, and they were still stupidly trying to sneak up on the Astral Army walking into the room.
"Dada"
The sudden sound of the revolving cannon surprised the rebels, but before they could react, they were torn to shreds by countless ammunition with shock and doubt.
The astral army outside the room didn't need to walk in person if they wanted to destroy the rebels in these rooms. They were able to pinpoint the location of the rebels inside through the walls through the tactical armor.
Then all you need to do is raise the revolving cannon in your hand and unleash your fire on the enemy.
This weapon consisted of multiple barrels and relied on an electric motor to maintain an extremely high rate of fire. Their medium-caliber bullets are not as powerful as blasters, but they can still clear up unprotected hordes of enemies and naked xenomorphs with their massive bullet output.
The Astral Army's bullets pierced through the walls and were still able to inflict fatal wounds on the rebels.
Historically, this weapon was only available in Space Marines or Imperial Navies, but now with the Power Exoskeleton, this very heavy and recoil weapon can also shine in the hands of the Astral Army.
When it was determined that there was no more life inside through the tactical visor, the Astral Army, armed with laser guns and blasters, immediately stepped forward to conduct a second inspection and search the room.
At the same time, the rebels who were guarding the staircase with heavy firepower were all eliminated by the Astral Army.
Before the revolving cannon could fire, a bomb with a precise dosage was placed on the ceiling. Then, the moment the gunshots rang out, the bomb was also detonated instantly, blowing up a passage between the first and second floors.
Then the Astral Army, which had been prepared for a long time, jumped several meters from the first floor through the jetpack placed on the exoskeleton, and jumped into the second floor through the hole blown out by the bomb.
Then, through the blaster in his hand, the rebels who were still guarding the staircase in front of him, and failed to figure out the situation, fired a powerful explosive bomb.
Above the building, the Diona Pilot has also cleared the top level of enemies, gradually descending into it.
The building has five floors, and the mayor's office is on the fourth floor. The mayor who has been corrupted by Chaos has long become a cult leader, leading many cultists and rebels to defend on the fourth layer. Performing an evil ritual that I don't know what it does.
The movement of the Astral Army on the first floor caused the rebels to focus their defense below, and most of their troops were placed at the staircase and windows to guard against the Astral Army entering below.
As for the top, they didn't realize that all of their teammates on the fifth floor had died. Diona piloted the enemies on the fifth floor without making a single move, and none of those enemies were able to fire a single shot to warn their teammates.
Looking at the large number of enemies scanned by the tactical visor on the fourth layer, Diona whispered, "BT." ”
"Roger."
Diona's ears rang with his answer to the Titan BT-4396.
The most lethal means of the Titan is the neural link with the Titan Mecha, and although the Diona Pilot has left the Titan's cockpit, this does not mean that the Titan has become a large doll.
BT-4396 outside the town hall received a message from the pilot. He stepped back a few distances, then ran and jumped, and the entire mech jumped to the fourth level.
His left hand hammered into the building and gripped it. The left foot also kicks into the building to immobilize its own body.
And his right hand, armed with a forty-millimeter cannon, stabbed it into the fourth layer. Then the trigger was pulled, and two shells as wide as their heads almost killed all the rebels in the fourth layer.
Usually the Space Marine's blaster gun has a caliber of .75 caliber, which is about 19 mm. The Titans were armed with more than twice the caliber of their cannons. The volume is much larger.
This 40mm cannon is a favorite weapon of many pilots, and is quite effective against both people and vehicles, and can shoot at long ranges. The 40 mm caliber cannon can't even be carried by a Space Marines in power armor.
Its splash damage to ground infantry units or pilots should not be underestimated, and it does not have to be a complete hit to inflict a kill.
However, this weapon also has drawbacks, due to the slower rate of fire, and the fact that it does not explode if it does not hit the object, it is difficult to hit fast-moving or air-moving vehicles.
However, the new Titans can be replaced with other weapons at any time, and the new Titans take up arms like a human holding a firearm, rather than having a cannon or a sword on his arm like the previous Imperial Titans.
Powerful firepower, high mobility, both near and far, automatic missiles, air combat ...... Although the new Titan mech does not have the exaggerated and huge body of the previous Imperial Titan, it is more flexible and mobile.
As BT-4396's attack nears its end, the Diona Pilot enters phase mode from the fifth layer and moves to the fourth layer, which is under attack.
When BT-4396's attack ended, Diona instantly broke out of phase space and executed the surviving enemy in front of him. At the same time, turn on the stealth mode to hide your figure, and then use the hook to quickly transfer.
In the place where he first appeared, Diona also used the Phantom Pilot Device to create a holographic projection in addition to standing still to attract the attention of his enemies.
The Pilot sacrifices armor in order to maximize mobility, and even a normal firearm hit will deal significant damage. As a result, the Pilot will carry additional tactical equipment, such as using an invisibility cloak or creating a Phantom Clone, to enhance its survivability.
There are also some surviving rebels who have not been crushed by the fierce attack of the Titans just now, or their will has long been defeated by the evil god and has become the minions of the evil god.
When the Titan's attack stopped, they immediately fired back, but their weapons could not inflict the slightest damage on the Titan. Even the BT-4396 placed the cannon in the weapon slot on the back. Then it becomes a right hand to grab the building, freeing the left hand.
Use the swirl shield in your left hand to block all bullets that come at you, and the projectiles will bounce back to attack the enemy.
Some of the rebels spotted the phantom clone left behind by Diona and attacked it with their guns. But one rebel was so focused when he pulled the trigger on his target that he didn't notice a cutie landing at his feet.
"Boom"
The explosion of fragmentation grenades sounded, and the poor rebels were blown up on the spot. But he wasn't the only one who was blown up, our legendary soldier, the elite of the Astral Army, the Diona Pilot, was also blown away by this grenade.
What bullshit stuff?
As a pilot, this kind of mistake can happen? The old woman in a wheelchair throws a grenade and has enough time to leave, and your fully mobile pilot can still be blown up, which is really a shame in the pilot.
"Sun and Moon"
Your mother is undoubtedly the worst pilot I've ever heard!
No, wait, Diona doesn't know the mistake, he did it on purpose! He's using the impact of the grenade to speed himself up!
Armed with an automatic shotgun with impressive firepower, Diona moves around the building at breakneck speed. With the help of a hook and a jumping device, Diona appears near the rebels, killing one enemy with a single shot, and then around another in the next second.
Another shot was fired, again taking the life of an enemy. The whole process is exceptionally silky and does not stop at all. The movements are very fluid, as if they have been rehearsed countless times.
It turned out that it wasn't Diona's operation that was too la, but that he wanted to play some high-end operations. Although the impact of the grenade provides acceleration to the pilot, it has a higher chance of killing himself. Therefore, it is not recommended for ordinary pilots to play like this.
The Diona pilots flying around the building were still in stealth mode, and the enemies could only hear the sound of gunfire coming from all directions, and there was no trace of the enemy. But his teammates around him fell one by one.
Terry was armed with a firearm, nervously aiming around. Constantly changing the direction of his aiming with the position of the gunshot.
"Gollum"
Terry swallowed nervously. Cold sweat broke out on his head, and he even had to wipe the sweat from his head with one free hand, so that it would not flow into his eyes and interfere with his observation.
But he can wipe the sweat off his head, but he can't wipe away the fear in his heart.
The greatest fear is the unknown. A ghostly enemy was slaughtering his teammates, but he didn't see a trace of the enemy.
This frightened him even more than the bombardment of the Titan's 40mm cannon just now.
"Bang"
Left!
Terry immediately raised his gun to aim, but saw only the fallen figure of his teammate.
"Bang"
Right!
Terry quickly turned around again, but again saw nothing but the fallen figure of his teammate.
Why? Terry couldn't figure out why the enemy was moving such a distance in an instant. Whether there is more than one enemy, or whether the enemy has psionic powers.
But Terry didn't get a chance to get a final answer to that question.
"Bang"
Another shot rang out, but this time Terry didn't react in the slightest.
Because this time, the gunshots rang out, not from the left nor from the right, but from Terry's ears.
Terry's head exploded like a watermelon hit by a hammer, and he fell stiffly.
Just as Diona cleared these enemies, Harlan, the mayor of Cameron City, the leader of these rebels, and the head of the cult, shouted.
"Great! I gradually understood everything! ”
Then I saw him run quickly towards the Titan by the window.
Diona had wanted to leave him behind to see if he could get some information out of his mouth. Therefore, Harlan was not killed first.
But now watching the mad Harlan rush towards his precious mech, Diona decided he couldn't sit idly by.
He changed his course, and the next second he was at Harlan's side. But a blast of psionic energy emanated from Harun's body, knocking the arriving Diona back several meters.
BT-4396 uses his left hand to grab Harlan as he runs to his side, but is dodged by one of his jumps. Even Harlan ran down BT-4396's left arm all the way to its back.
This is not an action that ordinary people can do at all, it must be that Harlan has been blessed by the evil god and his physical fitness has been greatly improved.
And such a cultist, blessed by the evil god, ran towards his own Titan, and even ran to the back of his beloved Titan, his goal could not be clearer, that is, to destroy his own Titan!
What will happen next is clear to Diona. He looked at BT-4396 in the distance and let out a cry of despair.
"Nope!
! ”
“BT!
! ”
At this time, Harun, who was standing on BT-4396's back, looked at the desperate Diona and smiled evilly.
Despair, wail, these will please the evil gods he believes in.
Under Diona's desperate gaze, Harun prepares to perform a brutal execution on the Titan beneath his feet!
