In the canteen of the ground base supply station, Commander Doug has finished enjoying his meal and is packing up his own plate, preparing to take it to the recycling area for placement.
For some reason, Doug always felt that today's meal was not quite what she wanted.
Because, she discovered that when she went to the buffet area again, she couldn't find the fragrant roasted animal hind thighs that little Annie had eaten.
So, this made her very dissatisfied!
You know, she, Doug, is the commander-in-chief of this ground base. Although she is not the one with the highest military rank, she is still the highest-ranking person on the ground...
And now? She herself just wanted to find that kind of food and eat it rare, but the waiters in the dining area dared to say that they didn't have it?
Those bastards must want to treat them differently, right? Do you want to please the little girl just because she looks cute?
She, Doug, saw with her own eyes the kind of good food that little Annie ate right in front of her. How dare they open their eyes and tell lies?
Those bastards! !
Although Doug didn't say much about it at the time, nor did he make any statement, she had already kept it in mind. There would always be a time when she would put small shoes on those bastards!
Who dared them to make things difficult for their leaders like this? Do you still want to hang out with the humans on the Hope?
Don't they know that Doug is not only the commander of the ground base, but also the number two person on the Hope?
I just want to eat something to relieve my fatigue, but I can still be made difficult?
This is really unreasonable...
Sulking secretly, after placing his tableware in the recycling area, Commander Doug was about to end today's not-so-perfect meal when he turned around and saw two armored vehicles parked at the gate of the supply depot. In the air valve of the isolation area inside the supply station.
"Lieutenant Galen? And Lieutenant Darius? What are you..."
After the toxic vapor inside was quickly extracted and filled with air, soon, twenty people walked out of the two closed armored vehicles used in the base, all with dark faces, as if everyone in the world was in debt. They are members of two teams of elite marines worth hundreds of millions.
Doug, who was in a bad mood, couldn't help but ask out of curiosity after seeing these elite marines who seemed to be in a similar mood.
"Huh?! Hello, Commander Doug!"
As soon as he walked into the door of the restaurant, he met Commander Doug who was coming towards him. Galen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he hurriedly saluted.
"Sir!"
"Sir!!"
After seeing Doug, everyone else stood still and performed a military salute.
"Okay, this is just a canteen, so there's no need to be polite!"
Doug waved his hand in time to make those behind him who were about to stand at attention stop what they were doing, and then looked curiously at Galen and Darius again.
"I see that all of your faces don't look very good? Did something happen?"
If it had been anyone else, Doug probably wouldn't have wasted his time asking questions like this.
But the group of people in front of her were the two most elite teams on the human side of the Hope and the two frontline commanders she valued the most. Therefore, after seeing these people like this, she was determined to do it no matter what. I have to ask the previous question.
"What else can happen? It's all caused by the copy of the melee training simulation map that little Annie made for us. Forget it, sir, you'd better not mention this..."
Before the general could speak, Darius sighed heavily.
He didn't want to mention this matter. After all, it would be filled with blood and tears...
Then, Darius took the lead and turned around and walked into the cafeteria. If they didn't hurry up, they would have to wait until late night snack time, or they would not be able to eat hot meals tomorrow morning.
"That's right! It's all the fault of that close combat training!"
Galen also said in agreement, then gave Commander Doug an apologetic wry smile and hurried over.
There is really nothing to say about this matter!
They, the most elite Marines on the Hope, were actually beaten up by a group of NPCs in a special close combat training map created by Little Annie. If this was revealed, where would they be able to save their face? ?
"..."
Melee training?
It’s just a training session, any questions? Why is it still so mysterious?
Doug frowned, looking at these Marines who were keeping silent and secretive. He had no idea what they were doing.
She made up her mind: when she had nothing to do at night, she would go and take a look at the simulated map where they conducted special training!
————
At this time, in the hemisphere on the other side of the ground base, the Marines who sneaked into the cracks of the Grand Canyon to investigate the situation smoothly returned to their previous starting point and successfully called the people still above the sky. The hovering armored transport spacecraft picked them all up.
"Captain, I really didn't expect that our operation this time would go so smoothly?!"
After sitting in their seats and seeing the armored transport spacecraft take off successfully, a team member with 037 on his chest finally couldn't help but speak on the channel.
Now, they are sitting intact in the cabin of the armored transport spacecraft. Presumably, they should be very safe, right?
So, he couldn't help but start to relax a little.
Not long ago, when he saw the huge insect nest and those terrifying insect swarms in that gap, he even thought that they were all dead!
You know, at that time, when he saw that scene, his thighs in the armor could not help shaking, and he almost peed his pants!
"Isn't it going well? Do you still want to have a battle with those bugs?"
Captain 031 sat in a position in the cabin and placed his rifle, then glared angrily at 037 opposite him.
In the interstellar age, this kind of operation of sneaking behind enemy lines to conduct reconnaissance or perform some kind of special mission will definitely be a dead end once discovered by the enemy!
There is absolutely no such thing as in movies or TV shows, where after being discovered by the enemy, you can kill everyone and escape smoothly!
They are just ordinary marines, not ghost agents, a special unit with expensive power armor capable of stealth and anti-detection!
In the opinion of Captain 031, maybe the bug was too careless this time? Or maybe they have been peaceful for too long and have lost their basic vigilance on this planet without natural enemies?
Or maybe, their actions this time were really concealed enough to prevent the bugs from discovering them?
But no matter what, these people have not only completed the reconnaissance mission arranged by the base, but also placed the important thing that the commander ordered them to put in!
This is enough! As for the others, you don’t need to worry too much.
"Captain, is your operation going well this time? What is in that canyon?"
At this time, the captain of the No. 2 armored transport spacecraft interjected curiously.
This time he was ordered to transport this group of Marines to perform this reconnaissance mission far away from the base, which was a considerable risk.
In order to avoid the flying dragon-like insects that might appear, he had previously deliberately piloted the spacecraft to hover high in the sky, not daring to get too close to the ground.
Then, he waited up there for almost four hours!
Now, after finally getting through this period of loneliness and fear, of course he had to ask Captain 031 about it. Anyway, it was not against discipline!
He was still quite curious about the following situation, but since these people were able to return safely, there must be nothing special, right?
"You don't want to know..."
Captain 031 didn't want to say anything more about this. He just exhaled heavily, opened the mask of his armor, and leaned against the bulkhead of the metal seat while lying down.
"By the way, I almost forgot to tell you. I think it's best for you to drive faster now, and it's also best to pull the spacecraft higher?"
After closing his eyes and pretending to be asleep, Captain 031 smiled. Suddenly remembering something, he smiled and said to the captain of the transport spacecraft in the communication.
"Fly faster and fly higher? Why is this?"
The captain felt that the mission had been completed anyway, and their twenty-man Marines had also investigated the situation in the crevices of the Grand Canyon below. So, wouldn't it be good to fly back slowly now? In such a hurry?
"Because... we have just buried a large-yield fusion explosive device below! Moreover, it is about to explode..."
032, who had been silent when he came before, suddenly said this on the channel at this time.
"Ju, the fusion explosive device...is still huge? Ouch! Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
After being stunned for several seconds, the captain of the spaceship finally came to his senses.
Then, he was so frightened that he quickly pulled a few buttons on the console, directly pushing the output of the two Titan thrusters at the rear of the armored transport spacecraft to the highest level.
Immediately afterwards, after the engine at the tail of the spacecraft spewed out two huge blue particle streams, the captain pulled the joystick hard, causing the bow of his armored transport spacecraft to tilt almost forty degrees from the horizontal. In the direction of a five-degree oblique angle, the maximum acceleration was applied, and after violently breaking through the sound barrier, it rushed straight into the sky.
After the spacecraft soared into the sky, the spacecraft crossed the sound barrier, causing the surrounding pressure to drop sharply. The sudden low temperature caused by the sudden drop in pressure caused the strong acid vapor in the atmosphere of the JNO.3 planet to quickly condense. It turned into a tiny liquid. To the naked eye, it looked like a spaceship had pulled down a big lump of yellow...
"Damn it! Couldn't you guys have said it earlier?!"
The captain began to curse while holding on to the control stick.
He finally recalled it now. No wonder. Before that, when he came here, he always felt that the big square thing carried by the 032 Marine was a bit annoying?
He has never seen Marines need to carry so many supplies on the battlefield!
And now, everything can finally be explained clearly!
It turned out that his spaceship actually carried a large-yield fusion nuclear device and flew such a long distance to perform a reconnaissance mission? !
damn it!
His ship is a transport spaceship, not a battleship, let alone a fighter plane!
Those bastard senior executives didn't tell him the truth and allowed him to carry out such a dangerous thing on a mission?
"Isn't it just a nuclear device? And it exploded underground. We are at high altitude now, so it should be fine, right?"
037 looked at the captain's reaction, which was a bit baffling.
"You know nothing!"
The captain didn't have time to explain too much. He quickly grasped the control stick of the spacecraft and tried to stay away from the island below and increase the distance at the same time.
Not long after, after the transport spaceship sprayed two huge blue tail flames and flew for a long distance, the huge island in the distance below it suddenly sent out strong vibrations.
Rumble...
A dull and heavy explosion followed.
Then, a shock wave swept towards the spaceship high in the sky, causing the transport spacecraft, which was still traveling at high speed, to become bumpy.
"Damn UPL..."
When the captain looked from the bow side window to the island ground behind the spacecraft, he saw that a large piece of ground slowly turned into a large mass of dark red color. In this dark night Among them, it appears promising and conspicuous.
It seems that there is powerful energy erupting under the earth's crust and melting a large amount of rock?
He knew that it must have been a fusion explosive device that detonated. Now, everything under the crust of the big island has been destroyed in an instant. Whether it is insects or other things, there will no longer be any possibility of survival!
"..."
"It's so spectacular..."
The other marines were either silent or looking at the ground from the spacecraft's windows in wonder.
There, under the cracked ground, streaks of red light burst out from under the ground. Then, the red area gradually spread, and the dissipated red light was like a huge spider web. Soon the entire big island was covered...
"May God forgive us..."
Fortunately, their operation this time was relatively smooth, and everyone had safely left the dangerous explosion area.
Although at the beginning, everyone else was concealed by the captain and 032, and they did not know that this reconnaissance operation would bring this crazy and dangerous thing.
But, no matter what, everything is finally over perfectly now, and that's enough.
…
puff! ! !
Then, after the armored transport spacecraft lowered its altitude and flew for more than ten minutes, it suddenly shook. It seemed that something hit the outer bulkhead of the spacecraft?
Or maybe their spaceship hit something? !
"No! We were ambushed! They are those flying dragon-like bugs! There are so many of them! It's over! Everyone, prepare for an emergency landing!!!"
Different from the doubts of the Marines, the captain who was operating the armored transport spacecraft immediately screamed loudly and horrified after seeing the warning lights flashing wildly on the instruments.
Because, he finally saw from the satellite picture: I don’t know when, when they passed by here, a large group of flying dragons suddenly jumped up from nowhere on the ground, and began to attack him. A spacecraft carried out a violent poison sac attack.
Phew…puff…
In this short moment, countless poison sacs accurately hit the outer bulkhead of their spaceship. After hitting the armor, they made bursts of sounds like water balloons bursting.
Although the captain of the armored transport ship No. 002 made his best efforts and avoided a considerable part of the poison sacs with his superb skills, most of the attacks still hit accurately and exploded outside the ship.
There was even a highly corrosive poison sac liquid that began to corrode the bow of his ship...
"Are there any weapons on the spacecraft? We need to fight back now and disperse them as soon as possible!!!"
Captain 031 also saw the terrifying flying insects outside the window.
It seems densely packed, as if there are hundreds of them? They are constantly surrounding their armored transport spacecraft, and are constantly throwing highly corrosive poison sacs towards them.
"No, it's useless... Our engine has been destroyed... We will fall soon..."
After the captain finished speaking tremblingly, he closed his eyes in despair.
Because, he discovered that he had completely lost control of the spacecraft. On his console, in the holographic interfaces and instruments, red warning messages were flashing everywhere.
And the most terrible thing is: in the damaged picture of the spacecraft, in addition to the red alarms all lighting up on the fuselage, showing that the fuselage is being corroded by the strong acid of insects, the two Titans who are the most important to the spacecraft are The engine is also in a state of disconnection...
————
In Area C of the ground base, after more than two days of leveling, the hard-working SCV engineers have almost cleaned up the battlefield where they fought against the insect swarms in the past few days and nights.
Now, not only have they built a small interstellar airport here and started trial production of transport spaceships and Wraith fighter planes, they have also leveled a large area on the other side, laid a large metal floor and built some full-scale buildings. After the closed hangar, it quickly transformed from an open space into an important airport facility on the ground base.
And our ghost agent, Colonel Anne, after eating and drinking, she had nothing to do, and she wandered here again.
Now, the tank she occupied before has been played with for a long time, and she is starting to get a little tired of it!
Therefore, she once again set her sights on the new toys in the ground base, these Wraith fighter jets that had just been deployed to the ground base.
"Sir, sir... We really don't have any other free fighters here. I beg you, can you please stop causing trouble to us?!"
Little Annie, wearing a red and white tight-fitting ghost armor, was wandering around in the huge hangar of the base's aviation brigade. She seemed to be... preparing to find a Wraith fighter that looked more pleasing to the eye?
And the reason why she is not in a hurry to take action now is because she doesn't see anything that suits her eyes?
Behind her was a second lieutenant officer from the aviation group's ground service. At this time, he was begging little Annie in a low voice.
He knew this little ghost's ability and record, as well as the opponent's record of causing trouble!
He also knew: Not long ago, this little girl had the feat of robbing a heavy siege tank! At that time, he talked about it with his colleagues.
However, what he never expected was that just a few days later, this untouchable little ancestor would actually target their aviation group again?
Judging from the opponent's appearance, it seems that he wants to repeat his old tricks and forcefully take away a Wraith fighter?
"Oh, why are you in such a hurry? It's really annoying! I'm just looking around, really just looking around. Don't follow me!"
Little Anne impatiently waved away the follower who had been following her since she came here.
(You’re right! We really just came here to stroll around, don’t worry too much. If we see something that pleases our eyes, we will take it away casually, and we will never be polite to you! ——It was stuck on the waist by the owner Anne Tibbers, the buttoned-up bear, has already thought through his thoughts very clearly about his mistress.
What she said is casual means that she can be casual to others!
As long as she sees something that pleases her eyes, no matter what method she uses, whether she steals it, robs it, or threatens to give it away, anyway, in the end, she will take it away! )
Please shut up, Tibbers...
"Wow……!"
After bypassing a row of neatly parked standard Wraith fighter jets, little Annie suddenly took a fancy to a Wraith fighter plane numbered 01, which was parked alone in a smaller independent hangar. inside.
The reason why little Annie stared at it at first glance was because the opponent's size and weapons and equipment seemed to be much larger than those Wraith fighter planes placed in rows?
After discovering it, Annie's eyes lit up and she jumped directly into its open cabin.
"Sir?!"
After seeing the other party's actions, the second lieutenant ground officer who was following him was so frightened that he almost cried.
He felt that this little girl must have taken a liking to this plane, right?
"Oh, don't bother me! I'll just have some fun and leave later!"
Seeing the second lieutenant under the fighter plane looking up anxiously, little Annie drove away again impatiently.
(That's right! We'll just play for a little while, and when we've had enough, we'll drive it away! - Tibbs once again mocked his little master mercilessly.)
"..."
After Zhou Zhe's cute little brows looked at the little bear on her waist, Annie felt that she was in a good mood now, so she shouldn't worry about it!
"Hey! What are you doing?!"
Annie, who had just closed the glass hatch of the fighter plane, had to open it again and scolded the second lieutenant on the ground.
He is now blocking his own way!
Moreover, he also used a locking machine to lock the wheels of the fighter plane on the ground. What did he mean? Are you afraid that you will drive away this fighter plane? !
This is really unreasonable! How dare you doubt the great Colonel Anne? ! What a rebellion!
Later, we must find a reason to lock him in a dark room for three days!
"Second Lieutenant! Now I have decided: from now on, this plane belongs to me! I order you to let go of that wheel immediately!"
Then, while the ground officer was begging in a low voice, little Annie quickly changed her face and announced another decision of hers relying on her official authority.
Since this plane was obviously larger than the other fighters, she had identified this one! No matter what, she must occupy it and drive away!
"Sir, sir... this aircraft is the special aircraft of the group captain. It has to take on the important responsibility of commanding all fighter planes in combat. You must not drive it away..."
This second lieutenant ground service officer was about to burst into tears. Now when he met such a young ancestor, he could not hit or scold him. Since his military rank was not higher than the other's, he could only use this pleading tone. Wailed.
"Otherwise, apart from this captain's plane, you can choose the rest? I'll make the decision on my own and give you a Wraith fighter plane. What do you think?"
Seeing that he couldn't bear the worst, the officer was a bachelor, so he directly put forward his own suggestion.
First try to coax this difficult little ancestor away, and then write a report to let Commander Doug at the base have a headache!
"I don't want it! I just like this one!"
How could little Annie let him fool him with just a few words when he was looking for something? nonexistent!
She has now decided: she wants this plane that sells well, and no one can persuade her!
"But, this is the captain's landline... If you drive away, then what should we use to direct the air battle?"
The second lieutenant of the ground service officer was already thinking, should he stabilize the opponent first and then quickly contact Commander Doug at the base? Let her take charge of this difficult little girl?
"Well, let's do this. I used to have a tank! But now I'm tired of playing with it, so I'll trade it with you! It's parked next to the military camp. You can have someone drive it away!"
After saying that, little Annie didn't care what the ground officer thought. She jumped down and unlocked the lock machine twice. Then she jumped into the cockpit of the Wraith fighter and began to get familiar with the things that were a little different from those in the game. various devices and instruments.
"Tank, tank?"
The second lieutenant of the ground service suddenly became confused...
This little girl, what did she just say? Trade a heavy siege tank for a Wraith?
Fortunately she could figure it out!
They are an air force brigade, so what's the use of having a heavy tank?
Is it possible that the captain of their aviation team is required to drive a ground tank and command fighter planes in air combat?
"Second Lieutenant! Why are you so dazed? Why don't you get out of my way quickly?"
It's stupid, it's not a good thing at first glance!
After closing the hatch of the plane, Little Annie angrily scolded the officer who was still standing under the fighter plane.
If he doesn't get out of the way, later, when she starts the engine and lets the fighter plane take off vertically, the jet of high-temperature particles will definitely burn him!
