The Einsatzgruppen stopped three kilometers from the Straker biosphere.

Further inside, you will enter the dense area of fungus.

The excessive weight of the vehicle will allow the ecosystem to detect the invasion of foreign enemies at the first time.

"Hurry up, get moving, don't give the protists time to get together." Instructor Haken urged the members of the advance team to get out of the car, distributed the supplies and communicators, and saluted the group of experimenters who tried and tested for Cotter City: "After entering the Straker biome, your radio equipment will be blocked by the biosphere signal, and you will not be able to use any electronic equipment at that time. You can only connect with each other through dialogue, Night Stalker! ”

"Yes!"

Chen Mo was listed.

"From now on, you are the only wartime commander of the advance team. I hope that you will still be a complete organization when you return from your mission. Haken handed the file to Chen Mo: "Above is the map and mission objectives taken by satellite aerial photography. ”

"Yes!"

"You have 168 hours to complete the task, and after completing the task, you can return as soon as possible, and the headquarters will send a car to pick you up... Don't start an ecosphere riot. ”

"Understood."

The operation was classified as top secret, and Haken did not have permission to see the details of the mission in advance.

The cowhide bag is clearly marked with the words Chen Mo personally opened.

The personnel carrier left after leaving all the equipment behind.

I don't know if it was to prevent the cause of the riot in the Straker ecosystem, the smoke and dust billowed behind the car, and it went farther and farther.

Only Chen Mo and other forty-one advance teams were left.

Chen Mo looked at the team members, lit a cigarette, and opened the file bag.

In addition to the basic topographic map, there are three specially marked mission objectives in the document bag.

The first is to take samples of the fungus blanket organisms, the second is to try to catch a 'Syxon' alive, and the third is to find the location of the 'mother nest'.

The captain of the Pioneer Task Force saluted Chen Mo and stepped forward to study the satellite image with Chen Mo.

Chen Mo had a relationship with this person.

The task force leader is a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face, named Chen Feiqi, and he is an old-timer who debuted in Cotter City long before he and the fierce man were called two heroes.

has been dealing with black work for the Law Enforcement Bureau, which is similar to Chen Mo's previous work, and he had a relationship with the inspector before.

It's a melee ability.

Chen Mo's strength has never been to formulate the strategic policy of the team, but fortunately, he has one of the biggest advantages is that he will not pretend to understand.

Spreading out the map, Chen Mo handed the mission briefing to the visitor.

Chen Feiqi glanced at the mission target.

"Although I haven't been in the Straker ecosystem, I've been in contact with a few guys from the E.N. Society before, and I know what this so-called 'Sexson' is."

Chen Mo nodded and waited for the following.

He also had a few fights with Sexon

"'Saxon' is a poaching word, and the first to enter Ross was Eagle Sauce, and the explorer who discovered this protist creature was called 'Saxon' and named it after himself."

"I'll talk about it later." Chen Mo frowned.

"Okay." Chen Feiqi shrugged indifferently: "Exexon is a scorpion-like crustacean creature with tail spines and the ability to attack from a distance. The people of the Eidium Society felt that this creature should have an ant-like type of community consciousness. ”

"So this thing is going to pile up?"

"Yes, once it appears, it will be a big crowd."

This coincides with what Chen Mo knows.

Unlike Root, Sexson could not leave the Straker ecosystem.

"Thermal weapons don't believe in flesh and blood." Raven on the side pouted disapprovingly.

"There are no Ross Pioneers left who think the same way as you." Chen Fei smiled and said, "Since we have been assigned to do this task... I guess we'd better be serious, right? ”

"You should know that cows and dogs are ferocious." Chen Mo looked at Raven.

Raven's face changed.

As one of the most representative protists on Ross, the cattle dog, which is extremely strong in survival and adaptability, is a pest in the wilderness.

The creature has a scaly-carapacey epidermis, a trifid mouthpart, and the smallest adult is the size of the parent Caucasian dog, and it moves quickly and in groups.

Encountering a herd of cows and dogs in the wilderness is basically equal to death.

Cattle and dogs are still like this, and the creatures in the Straker ecosystem are only more dangerous.

"According to the idea of marching, we should seize the commanding heights as soon as possible, retreat to defend, and have space nearby." A tall and thin white man who has never said a few words.

Chen Mo looked sideways.

"You used to be in the Corps?"

"I have been a wilderness hunter [Note 1]."

Chen Mo nodded.

In the ecosystem, an experienced hunter can greatly improve the survival rate of the team.

"Then according to you, how should we seize the commanding heights, and if we do, which commanding heights should we seize?"

"Here." David pointed to a large bulge on the satellite map: "I don't know much about the situation in the biosphere, and it is not easy to march too deep, so I think the first strategic point should be set up here." In my opinion, there should be enough depth in the back mountain. ”

Chen Mo looked at the map for a long time and didn't see why.

After all, he is not from a professional class, so he naturally listens to experts in this kind of thing.

Chen Mo handed the map to David.

"The Alien Brigade is responsible for opening the way ahead, and the task force is divided into two teams to follow up, and I am broken, is there a problem?"

"Nope."

The people answered.

Chen Feiqi frowned.

"This strategic point is at least ten kilometers away from us, isn't it a bit too childish to march so far on the first day without knowing the depth of the ecosphere?"

"It is precisely because we don't know what's going on inside that we have to set up strategic points in a safe area." David explained: "According to you, Sexsons are crustacean life, and placing strategic points on commanding heights, even if discovered, can give us a great buffer time. ”

Chen Feiqi pondered for a moment and nodded.

Three teams of men and horses marched out in the shape of an army.

Chen Mo was at the back.

The three-kilometer journey was soon reached, and the advance team came to the edge of the ecosphere.

You can already see the fungus blanket.

The so-called fungus blanket is a layer of gray semi-liquid that covers the land, Chen Mo wore gloves and looked down at the fungus blanket.

What appears to be a slow-flowing fungus blanket is not a fluid, but an organic substance that is as malleable as plastic.

The texture is similar to that of rubber, but it is softer, and the gray semi-liquid is not smooth, with countless tiny bumps, which look a little similar to the bacteria under the microscope.

It is estimated that this is how the name of the fungus blanket came from.

Chen Feiqi motioned for the team members to bring the test tube, and carefully cut off a fungus blanket with a military dagger and put it in the test tube.

The fungus blanket that left the army quickly turned from semi-liquid to liquid, sticky and pulsating on the walls of the test tube.

Like a fish out of water.

[Explanation 1: The Hunter is an official organization that regularly cleans the city of harmful protists and rogues from Ross outside the city, and some Hunters will choose to break away from the team and become a solo Hunter, which can be roughly regarded as the official bounty hunter in the wilderness, and all of them who are qualified and confident to be hunters are sharp knife soldiers. 】
