Chapter 440: Pulling and Entanglement
Not long after the results of the casting of lots, a drop chamber landed from orbit to the outskirts of the city, and when the hatch slowly opened, 40 soldiers walked out of it;
The black armor worn by the soldiers is also full-covered, but whether it is the texture and sense of technology that looks more excellent, or the sometimes revealing near and far individual weapon ports, and their suspension posture with no energy scruples, it seems that this should be a more advanced class than quick anti-security.
The body revealed under the black armor is erect, and the height of the life form inside it can only be about five meters;
Judging from the roughly revealed body outline, it is very likely that the 40 individuals in the period were warriors of the same race, which is consistent with the grassroots unit formation plan of the rest of the black and white groups in the river system, and is a historical trend choice formed under various considerations and various lessons.
At the moment, it seemed that the 40 individual soldiers could be divided into four squads, each of which seemed to be the first member of the captain standing in the first place next to each other, looking in the direction of the target city, looking at the black fog that had covered the entire city in terms of area.
Seeing all this, under the mask that was integrated with the helmet, on the face that I don't know what it looked like, the expression that appeared at this moment was probably not too relaxed
After all, they were the unlucky troops who were caught by the high-level lottery, and they didn't actually think much about it, and even had some resistance;
And as mentioned in the previous information, and also visible to the naked eye at this moment, the historical traces left at the scene can be said to be quite bad, and the city before and after the rise and fall of the black fog has swallowed up too many intelligent bodies.
In this atmosphere, the captains who were looking at the city from afar had a deep voice, discussing the follow-up plan in the team channel
~~~~~
"Basically, whether it's a technological item or a supernatural device, it will fail as soon as it enters the fog, and until now, none of them have been able to communicate the condition inside. I don't think we should go in like this, it's basically the same as sending them to death, so we still have to fight for the plan first.
"Indeed, I think we should apply to the orbit for a large-yield blast, whether it is a kinetic bomb, a high-explosive bomb, or a transcendent attack, we should always try to eliminate this fog first, at least let us have a certain amount of information acquisition effectiveness, right?"
"That's right, it would be better if you could send psychic transcendents from the psychic system, judging from the information, the situation here must be inseparable from the spirit world."
"Don't be delusional about this, and to be honest, psionics are a time bomb in such an environment, and the damage they do in the end may be even higher than that of the enemy."
"It's true, it seems that the security force just happened to awaken a psyker, and after going crazy, he killed nearly a hundred fighters, including the squad, in a short period of time, how can a guy like this rest assured that he could form a team?"
[The application is approved, and there will be 12 hammers to destroy the city to bombard the coordinate point, please avoid it in advance. Extraordinary Blazing Flares and Hurricane Missiles are being prepared. 】
During the discussion, the receipt from the orbit soon got the news, and the high-level who was not short of money obviously did not skimp on this expenditure, and neatly agreed to their previous application, and sent a reminder to attack the coordinates to retreat first.
However, at this time, the lot-catching special combat team had not yet set off to approach the city, and it was not a short distance from that layer of black fog, so after receiving the news push and seeing the relevant data, they found that this place was not located in the impact circle, so they did not retreat again.
And a little away from them, almost several kilometers adjacent to the black fog of the security troops have not been evacuated, at the moment is still unconsciously nervous staring at the city and praying that no accident will be born, they are very willing to maintain the defense line for a hundred or two hundred years.
In front of them, the black fog had accumulated for about half a day, and had gradually risen and thickened from the beginning of the state of only a thin layer, and now it became as magnificent as a part of the laws of nature;
It expands nearly 100 kilometers or more, and it rises more than 100 kilometers into the air.
Inside, except for the ruined ring city that was previously flattened by internal and external impacts, the rest of the buildings will continue to extend through the upper boundary of the black fog, which can stretch for hundreds of meters and more than 1,000 meters.
As a result, the city, which was like a cubic mountain range, became even more mysterious in the black mist;
It's no surprise that even being recognized as a mirage is not surprising by casual eyes.
The gradual rise and spread of the fog provides the possibility of survival for life inside and outside the building, such as those that are beyond the upper boundary of the fog, but in fact there are survivors, including customers and services.
Seeing the power of the mist, which was almost insane at the touch of a button, the clever guys were forced by the Kuroshio to dodge high one after another, trying to keep themselves alive and wait for possible rescue.
At this time, although the gradually dense black fog has not yet submerged their place, it has also cut off the use of technology and transcendent communication equipment, so that these survivors have always experienced the uncertainty from the unknown, and tasted the uneasiness and fear that is gradually brewing wonderful taste.
It is impossible to find a flying machine to escape from the building, because there will be seemingly primitive stones flying out at great speed, and then catching up with the aircraft in the blink of an eye.
Or, in the near-liquid mist surging like a sea below, there may be arm-like structures stretching out in the air, and then slightly clumsily dragging back or directly grabbing the fugitives.
All in all, this city shrouded in black fog is closed and fragile, not only lacking the means of external communication and passage, but also completely deprived of the slightest ability to protect itself;
Whether there is any future for the survivors of the city depends on how the higher-ups of the track deal with it and how the silver-armored monsters deal with it
The plan was soon released, but the survivors in the city did not seem to be in the upper echelons of the orbit, and 12 heavy solid metal projectiles burrowed into the atmosphere from the vacuum area and smashed away in the direction of the black fog without any scruples;
Only a few moments later, the 12 city-destroying potential energy bombs dragged the tail flames and carried a slightly delayed rumbling sound, and they entered the eyes of observers of all sides and all kinds of mentality.
~~~~~~~~
In the city, the isolated island complex under the protection of monsters, Cynthia, who maintains the body of a silver-armored behemoth, is seizing the time to build a temporary base with certain expectations according to the plan she started before.
She was covered in twisted and wriggling inscriptions, and in the intervening part of the structure, except for some structures that maintained her transformation and specific offensive and defensive abilities, most of the areas were clinging to the black fog in the city, or the 'Negative Aura Complex' of her body;
In the distant headquarters, the individual brain is operating efficiently in the data connection between this side and the other side, providing her with real-time adjustment plans with the assistance of the Republic Computing Center, and then Cynthia's companion beast consciousness is responsible for implementing the specific process;
So, in the changing structure of the wriggling inscriptions around her, she created the bursts of black tide mist in the city at this moment, and the more important aura state in it.
In addition, there are actually several unique inscription functions, which are also deliberately maintained by her at this time
Among them, it is needless to mention that the structure that is concentrated in the first part of the sense, which has only been strengthened and not weakened since the advent;
After all, what was hidden under Cynthia's strength was the excessive haste and procrastination on her side due to accidents, and the confidence of the strong men and troops stationed here;
In such cases, the breadth and intensity of the senses that need to be maintained will be relatively high.
In addition, the hair also looks very strange, after fading the previous functions used for interrogation, breaking information walls, etc., at this moment it is attached to another series of lines that seem to be more complex than the former;
Immediately, her tentacle-like hair was reincarnated in the process of breaking and resurrecting, and the broken hair, which looked like a golden-veined white snake, burrowed into the ground one after another, and glued to each other a little deeper below to form a whole.
In terms of appearance, this overall structure resembles the core of a functional structure in a private house, but various signs in observation also indicate that it is a semi-finished product, and it is a semi-finished product with complex functional expectations but slightly lower processing accuracy.
The construction work has been under the cover of black fog for half a day of the home star, and a group of inscriptions preset on the braid of the flesh beard form a combination, and according to the design idea, priority is given to the characteristics of 'energy', 'plant', 'growth' and so on;
As a result, this semi-finished product buried deep in the ground has undergone a noticeable change at some point, like a slightly larger plant seed, with its root system breaking and spreading, and actively burrowing deeper into the ground to find nutrients and energy, and the upper part of the spores also break through the ground and spread themselves.
This is clearly a tree. In other words, it is a special biochemical inscription tree.
The combination of flesh, plants, metal, and inscriptions is already contained in the body of today's elves, so it is not difficult to break the hair and become seedlings under the adjustment of the inscriptions;
But the more critical difficulty lies in the design and construction of related functions, because only one special plant does not play a role at the moment.
~~~~~~
Feeling the shimmering metallic sheen of the young seedlings, and the growing root branch structure beneath them, Cynthia's mind thoughtless of those fellow dryads in the past;
At present, they have indeed recovered their normal elven body, but after completing the genetic code reconstruction and integration, the whole family has deep plant characteristics;
If it is developed, it will be possible to form a general-purpose 'giant tree druid', and in addition to accelerating the formation of a livable ecosystem, it seems that it will be possible to make some practical attempts to absorb and transform materials.
Just as she was thinking about these things, and had a rough idea of the experiment after returning to her headquarters, the movement from the extremely high atmosphere suddenly entered the psychic sense;
It was the fiery tail flame sound of 12 solid kinetic energy bombs as they rubbed against the atmosphere.
Looking up, his eyes flashed with a special look and penetrated the black fog that was isolated in one direction, and the 12 projectiles that were still hundreds of thousands of meters away were not very difficult to bring them into the field of vision.
"Troublesome guys, can't you wait patiently for a while, and then I'll send you on my way when I'm ready?"
Cynthia, who observed the growth of the temporary base and understood that she did not have much freedom of movement for the time being, worked out a response after a short hesitation.
After a simple association, you can understand what kind of attitude and purpose the other party has, so Cynthia, who also knows that the black fog is not so easy to disperse, decided to let them try a few times at will;
Cynthia herself is ready to nest obediently in the city, so that the place above the track is constantly gathering information, so that she can make the bold decision to besiege him but not attack, so as to wait for the arrival of the guards with her own goal
With this in mind, she watched as 12 heavy bombs fell with the potential to destroy the city, and only took action to protect the area she was in;
In the 'boom' sound, not only was most of the black fog in the city dispelled, but even the remaining buildings and the survivors were almost completely wiped out.
At this point, this fallen city has completely lost the appearance of a city, and the combination of large debris and fine debris forms a scenery like the Gobi Desert;
Only a few hundred meters in the center of the area still maintain the appearance of a terrace island under the protection of monsters, and within a few hundred meters there are the last survivors and buildings in the city.
But before the upper and lower parties could rejoice because of the retreat of the black fog, they saw that it didn't take long for a wisp of black lines to appear out of thin air, and their origin was not limited to the core island area where the monster was, but the entire city. The ruins of the entire city appear randomly in almost every corner, twisting and converging with each other to grow into the foggy structure that was before, and becoming rich and deep with the passage of time.
After that, for the purpose of trying, there were high-explosive bombs and extraordinary bombs entering the market one after another, and I wanted to continue to try to see if I could make the black fog that looked like a source of danger dissipate;
As a result, for the first time, dozens of large and small missiles fell from the far air in different areas, and they also exploded into a large empty area after entering the black fog;
But it was only a moment later, and the compound of multiple aura effects was once again connected with the spirit world, and the phenomenon of black fog on the surface, but in fact a critical invasion of reality, also happened again.
After that, the orbital base tried flame, water, electricity and other means, all of which had a slight short-term effect, but failed to achieve immediate results and never returned;
The psyker ventured to use his abilities in the dirty areas of the spirit realm, analyzed the true nature of the black mist, and came to the conclusion that pure physical means might not be used;
And the most efficient way to deal with it may be to kill the monster directly
But this is not what they want, and the monster is actually acting quite well-behaved at the moment, with no intention of trying to expand the scope of destruction;
Sure, it doesn't seem to be brewing something, but the orbital base is more tolerant of this state than if it were to immediately go to other cities to wreak havoc.
