Chapter 20: Chaotic Time and Space
In the Alien Resources Development Administration's Military Operations Command Center, all military directors and engineers are gathered around the giant three-dimensional three-dimensional sand table.
Colonel Quaritch is marking the perimeter of Area 7 on the 3D sandbox.
Communications engineer and intelligence analyst are doing emergency briefing and analysis.
"Yesterday afternoon, Forward Post 7 suddenly lost contact with the command center, and all personnel and smart devices were unable to get a response. At 8:30 p.m., contact with the Startup Star was lost. At 9 a.m., a search team was dispatched to Area 7. Contact was lost at 11:45 p.m. At 4:30 this morning, contact with Startup Star was restored, and everything was normal. At around 4:40, a distress message was received from the search team. It has been taken to the information engineer for analysis. The entire squad was attacked at almost the same time, and the entire squad was wiped out without any time to react. It is suspected that it was hit by heavy fire. The only thing that can destroy them on this planet in an instant is us, or just another group of colonists. We have contacted the Earth Star Headquarters, but we have not found any fleets from other Earth Star countries. We now have reason to suspect that we have encountered a third-party civilization. The briefing is complete. The engineer looked at Colonel Quaritch.
Colonel Quaritch turned around, glanced at Director Fritsch and Lieutenant Colonel Seth and said:
"Today I'm going to take two teams to the perimeter to search, and we'll be able to enter Area 7 on the condition that we will be able to enter Area 7. If we don't show up before dark or the area of the 7th anomaly expands. Seth, you give me full fire coverage for a saturation strike in Area 7. I don't care what it is. Whether it's a religious event, an alien invasion, or a high-dimensional invasion, or our other enemies blowing them up for me... I'm giving you emergency authorization. Thermonuclear weapons can be used if necessary. β
βYESοΌ Yes, sir. Lieutenant Colonel Seth immediately gave a military salute to Colonel Quaritch.
Fritsch glanced at the colonel and said worriedly: "There are still many company assets there, if there is no need, can we minimize the loss?" If the loss is too great, we can't explain it to the company's top management. β
Colonel Quaritch solemnly returned a military salute to Seth, who gave Fritch a contemptuous look before turning and leaving the command center.
Lieutenant Colonel Seth looked at Colonel Quaritch's distant back and said, "Now that I have taken over the command, Colonel No. 032 of the Log authorizes a saturation strike on Area 7 at 8:30 p.m. The armament group prepares ammunition and allows the use of thermite shells whatever it is for me to burn it. β
βYESοΌ Yes, sir. The Quartermaster and the Recorder replied at the same time.
"Also, the communications team contacted Startup Star and asked it to scan Area 26, and I want to see what's going on inside." Seth said to the information engineer.
"Roger." The engineer sitting at the workbench immediately got to work.
As one order after another is given, a vast war machine is in motion, and everything before it will be ruthlessly crushed by it, even if it is a divine .......
Fritch looked at the crowd ignoring him in embarrassment, and thought to himself, "These damn violent maniacs burn a lot of money and supplies in the company every year, and some things could have been solved well without them." Damn it, they're just going to kill people and ask for money.......... β
After walking around the room and having nothing to do, Fritsch decided to return to his office to enjoy his beautiful secretary and good coffee.
β¦β¦..........................................................................................................
"Time calibration. It's 9:30 a.m. Earth star time, and the teams are ready to set off after 10 minutes. β
Colonel Quaritch stood in the square and said to the search team in front of him.
βYESοΌ Yes, sir. The two teams stood upright, saluted, and answered in unison.
"Disband!" Colonel Quaritch looked at the young men with his hands behind his back, nodded in satisfaction, and turned towards a Scorpion armed warplane.
The magazine was pushed into the automatic rifle. The bullet bag was attached to the rotating machine gun. The missiles were suspended on the flanks of the fighters, and the AMP mechs were suspended on the bottom of the aircraft on the slings.
β¦β¦.........................................................................................................
5 scrapped Hell Knights infantry all-terrain transports in Area 7, weapons and bones scattered in a sea of colorful flowers, and a breeze blew through the charred ground and many huge craters.
Every gust of wind blows and brings up a large number of pollen, seeds, and phosphorus fires, which drift aimlessly into the distance, not knowing where to take root and sprout, sowing genes, spreading madness...
"Damn it! What the hell is this place. "A soldier in a tattered military uniform and a breathing apparatus with only a mask left is muttering, he has been trapped here for more than 12 months.
He woke up at Forward Post 7 with no idea what had happened.
Everyone was gone, he was the only one left in the outpost, all the equipment was in trouble and none of them could be used.
He used the radio every day to call for help.
He searched the entire outpost, and the entire area was overgrown with all kinds of strange plants, except for the people.
These plants are terrifying, as long as everything in the place where they grow has become very dilapidated, it has lost its original function, and even the food is spoiled and inedible.
In such a strange environment, he lived a difficult life for about 12 months.
Today he finally got a response, and the signal finally came today from the multifunctional military radio station, which had lost most of its functions.
"Post 7, please answer! Post 7 please answer! β
Hearing this familiar voice, he quickly rushed to the radio station excitedly, picked up the walkie-talkie, and responded loudly: "Roar..... Hiss..... Click..... Well.... Oh.... Woo..... Wow....! β
β..... Hiss..... Click..... Well.... Oh.... Woo..... Wow...."The pilot who heard this strange response was on the communication channel: "Colonel 7 has all responded. β
The pilot of the Scorpio armed twin-rotor fighter said to the colonel, who was sitting in the back seat: "Colonel Sentry 7 has all responded, there is information in the communication channel." β
"What's going on over there! Who answered the call and is there a mission briefing? Colonel Quarridge, who was sitting in the back row, asked as he straightened out his gear.
"There is no colonel. There was only some senseless roaring ...... The pilot replied briefly.
"Okay! All signs of life at Outpost 7 gave up searching the perimeter and all approached Outpost 7. The first team is on alert, hovering, not landing, ready for fire support at any time, and the second team searches for the outpost to communicate once every 5 minutes. Now to the table. It's 14:28 Earth star time. "Colonel Quaritch is giving the order.
"Attention all. Attention generally. Colonel ordered. .... Outpost 7 ........ 14:28 Earth Star Time. β
"A team understands... The second team understands. The teams in the communication channel responded.
Six Scorpion armed twin rotors quickly changed formation and flew towards Outpost 7.
All six Scorpion armed twin-rotor fighters hovered in front of the dilapidated barbed wire fence of Post 7, and the strange plants on the ground were swayed by the huge wind pressure, and a large amount of pollen and seeds were blown away, forming a chaotic fog.
βGO! GO!β The 12 crew members of the six Scorpio armed twin-rotor fighters slid down the rappel line.
Colonel Quaritch landed first and stretched out his right hand to point towards the outpost, and three heavily armed mercenaries searched for the outpost in a wedge-shaped formation.
The remaining 8 people quickly rallied to Colonel Quarridge.
"Put down the mech." Colonel Quaritch ordered.
Three mechs were dropped, and the Colonel and two other pilots quickly climbed into the cockpit and quickly began to debug the mechs and activate the mechs.
With the activation of the mecha, the remaining 6 people followed closely by the three mechs and entered Outpost 7, which was full of strange plants.
"Bang! Boom! ............" a rush of gunfire rang out.
"Report Colonel. There is a case in the communication room! The danger has been cleared, but please come over for a while. β
A message from the first group came from the communication channel.
"Roger! Stay in place! β
Three mechs, six heavily armed soldiers, quickly marched along the dilapidated road towards the communications room.
The search team parked at the door of the communications room looked neatly at the Colonel, waiting for his orders.
"You! You! You! Come in with me, the rest of the guard will be on every 5 minutes, and nothing will come near you to smash them except us. Colonel Quaritch opened the cockpit door of the mech and climbed out of it, pointing to the three people next to him and speaking to the rest of the people.
"Received sir!" The remaining five replied.
Colonel Quaritch arranged the task and took the lead towards the communication room, and the three named people immediately formed a defensive formation to protect the colonel on the left and right, and followed the colonel towards the communication room.
Ever since entering Area 7, Colonel Quaritch has had a very strange feeling, which has become more pronounced as he has been in Area 7 for longer periods of time.
This particular instinct formed on the battlefield has saved his life more than once, and he has always believed in this instinct very much, and this instinct has gradually developed with his massive killings and belief in the god of war.
He knew that this was God's reward for him, so that he could save his life in mission after mission, so he was not afraid of anything, because in his eyes everything could be sacrificed to war.
Including himself.
Striding forward, Colonel Quaritch looked at the corridor full of strange plants around him and said to the three people behind him, "Be careful. There shouldn't be so many plants here .... Prepare thermite bomb ......"
"Yes, sir! We should bring a botanist over where these came from, they are everywhere and all the way out is blocked by them. The defenders at the back of the palace reported.
"Colonel .... Here you see! The first three members of the team greeted at the door of the communication room.
Colonel Quaritch strode to the door, and walked through the two soldiers who had sideways to make way through the door, and he was greeted by a grotesque wreckage that was badly deformed and rotting.
"! What the hell is this? Colonel Quaritch asked, looking at the scattered corpses.
"Report sir! It's this thing that's replying to us. One of the mercenaries reported as he handed Colonel Quaritch a rusty steel badge.
The colonel took the military badge, twisted the stain on it with his hand and asked, "Was he still active at that time?" Looks like he's been dead for a while. β
"Yes, sir, it rushed straight at us when it saw us." The mercenary replied.
"There are no signs of life in this area?" Colonel Quaritch asked the pilot of the Scorpion's armed twincopter hovering outside on the communications channel.
"Report sir, there are signs of life in a kilometer scanned by field radar to the south." Responded.
"Attention all personnel! Meet at the gate of the outpost now! Colonel Quaritch ordered.
After giving the order, the colonel waved his hand and took away all the communication equipment and logs here. Remove.
"Sir, aren't you searching for it?" A mercenary asked.
"It's not normal here. There is a problem. It's been more than a dozen hours since I lost contact, and it looks like years. Fall back! Remember boy, don't be curious and this will save your life. β
After Colonel Quaritch finished speaking, he resolutely turned and walked towards the door.
The remaining soldiers began to quickly search, collect, and evacuate .......
Colonel Quaritch came to the door, climbed into the mech, entered the operation compartment, activated the mech, and ordered in the communication channel: "Start striking at the radar scanning reaction area, and fire with all your might......"
"Yes sir!" With the reply of the communication channel.
Six Scorpion armed twin-rotor fighters quickly switched into attack formation.
"Fire!" With the response in the communication channel.
Six 40mm cluster rocket launchers under the wings of the Scorpion armed opened fire.
Accompanied by jumping flames and a large amount of tail flames, a network of fire intertwined with grenades, small rockets, and missiles covered the entire target area.
"Mission report!" With the end of the first round of blows, Colonel Quaritch asked in the communication channel.
"Report sir! Activity Signs Message... The energy response is abnormal... Exponentially rising...! The communication channel responded anxiously.
"Second strike, throw everything you can use at me, fire and converge and retreat to the edge of Area 7. Let's go! After Colonel Quaritch gave the order, he quickly activated the flight function of the mech, turned up the power to the highest level, and flew towards the edge of Area 7.
"Damn it! Team D needs support! β¦β¦ Need support..... Yes! β
"Nourish..... Brother ........... Zizi.... is saturated.......... Beat.......... Hit.. Heavenly ......"
"How many of us are left to move towards Group A.... Fast... Fast..! We were attacked, and the other side had a lot of firepower! ... Need support... Need support... Multiply..... Multiply.. Hit. Above... School..... β
"Roar..... Hiss..... Click..... Well.... Oh.... Woo..... Wow... Boom.... Boom... Boom... Rumble... Rumble... Rumble...... Colonel: We're being attacked by an unknown lifeform......... Boom...."
Listening to the chaotic reports and the strange roars of the communication channel, Colonel Quaritchie looked at his watch when it was not running.
He was more and more convinced of the feeling in his heart, that they had been affected by something from the moment they entered the area.
Everything they see, hear, feel, and feel may not be true, and if it is, then he is in great trouble, and there is no power in his understanding that can change the ........ of time.
Colonel Quaritch turned off his communication channels, put on an oxygen mask, and plugged his ears with a communications headset.
He fled desperately, destroying a Hell Knight, killing three mercenaries and shredding two werewolf-like humanoids to avoid a saturation blow ......
He ran desperately... The heavy breathing made the mask in front of him full of moisture, but he never took it off. He knew there was a strange, evil, filthy, and powerful force surrounding him. His feelings told him that this force was not something he could fight against, he had to flee, and the moment he gave the order, he had a plan in mind, allowing them to attract targets and create a slim chance for himself.
All he knew was that as long as this modified AMP mech could still move, he wouldn't stop, he only had one chance!
A very slim chance, a chance he had prepared for himself. Whatever it is, a heavy firepower strike far beyond its area of influence is enough to make a difference.
This change is my only chance. He won't let go of this opportunity. He would try to survive until this opportunity presented itself, and all he had to do now was keep running away.
As long as he escaped fast enough, now he was glad again that he had chosen wisely.
These scientists are still very useful, and all the equipment will have to be upgraded when they return to the base, and who knows what the hell they will face in the future.
β¦β¦................................................................................................
With a loud noise coming from the thick fog in the distance, a transport plane in Lishen slowly emerged from the clouds because of its disturbance.
The cumulonimbus cloud quickly turned into dew and covered the entire plane, and the two avatars in the transport cabin were covered in dew.
Judy quickly turned on the wipers, and large expanses of dew were swept off the windshield.
Cliffside meadows and plants were ravaged by the turbine currents of airplanes, and small animals and strange insects fled in all directions.
"Thank you for flying Pandora," Judy adjusted the plane's posture and slowly landed in the open space next to a small research center, Judy stopped the plane and turned off the engine, looking at Noam playfully.
Everyone put on oxygen masks, opened the cockpit, and streamed down from the aircraft.
Noam and Judy helped Wei Tianran get off the transport plane. The people packed their bags and headed for the small research institute, which consisted of two link modules and a few scattered research equipment.
Wei Tianran shook his wheelchair with his simple luggage and looked up at the islands floating in the sky in the sky. Feel the beauty of Pandora and feel the breeze blowing through your body.
Enjoy this rare tranquility, without the weird, filthy, confused babbling, without the intriguing calculations. He threw himself into this fairyland-like beauty.
If there weren't so many uncertain things, he really wanted to live in seclusion with Neytilly here for the rest of his life and have children.
Wei Tianran slowly closed his eyes and enjoyed the brief calm, he knew that whether it was the sudden situation in Area 7 or the threat of the colonel, it was the next problem he would face.
"Ugh!" Wei Tianran looked up at the sky blankly. Noam came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go!" It's not too late, they're up early, you're late. β
Wei Tianran looked back at him and replied, "Yes! I'm late, but I'll still try, brother. I'm not going to tear the world apart! βγ
Noam pushed Wei Tianran forward, and said as he walked, "Why are you so sentimental today!" Aren't you envious of buddies! Ha ha! .....β
Wei Tianran rolled his eyes helplessly........
β¦β¦...............................................................................................................
What to say while sitting: The author spoiled that the colonel was able to run out not because he was awesome or because he was well prepared, but Lao Wei glanced at him.
So sometimes it's not that you work hard to be useful, but if you don't work hard, you're already done when others want to help you. So be prepared to get through the current situation. When this time passes, it will get better.
The brothers have a bad brain, and they can't write. Fill in the holes in these two chapters tomorrow. The Colonel wouldn't run away without anything. Boss Ke came, and no one could be fine.
Collection. Recommend. If there is one, my brother will not sleep tomorrow, and the liver will burst out in two or three chapters.
