Qiu Yu discovered that while he had overestimated the zombies, he had far underestimated these soldiers who had probably been tempered by war.
They were also holding laser rifles, but after seeing humans, the zombies shot at them randomly with their guns. From a certain distance, whether you will be hit depends entirely on luck.
But the soldiers never waste any energy. While performing precise shooting, alternately cover and advance. Whether it is the use of tactics or the coordination of the battle rhythm, it can be said to be impeccable. Until they attacked the military factory all the way, Qiu Yu didn't see anyone fall.
Although the equipment level is the same, and even better in terms of loss, the difference between those who use weapons is like a child and an elite troop.
These soldiers know their current responsibilities, so Qiu Yu is not worried that they will rush blindly when they encounter obstacles. As long as they don't ask for help, it means that the battle will continue smoothly. So, taking advantage of this gap, Qiu Yu returned to the previous topic again.
"You seem to have known for a long time that aliens would attack, right?"
"To be precise, we were just suspicious until we were attacked by zombies. After all, the source of the information we got had problems."
Qiu Yu said nothing, just waiting for Gu Huai to continue speaking.
"After being abducted into this world by aliens, we tried every means to contact humans on other planets who might have been abducted here as well. However, our communication methods were blocked, and the city was surrounded by various enemies. Despite our best efforts, we were beaten back after traveling hundreds of kilometers. After that, we were attacked from outside the city from time to time, and it was quite difficult to defend ourselves. The only good thing is that the aliens who abducted us were monitoring us. Other than that, there was no interference whatsoever..."
"Wait a minute." Qiu Yu couldn't help but said, "Where is your starship? Was it confiscated by aliens? Or, even if you rely on the starship, it can only travel a few hundred kilometers?"
Gu Huai shook his head, "Aliens don't like or care about anything of ours, and the same goes for starships. But because the starship technology of our Taishan planet is much behind that of the Earth, the starships are all relatively well made. It is too big, and there is no way to install anti-gravity devices on the entire ship. If it is on a planet, it will probably be broken by gravity and cannot be used in battles on the planet. And the universe... aliens do not allow us to go into the universe. The starship Its function is just to sit in port and gather ashes."
Qiu Yu had a bad feeling, "You mean, the starship is now parked at a port in the universe?"
"Yes, and because they were no longer needed, many things were dismantled from the starship for use. For example, the ion turret that was just blown up was made from the plasma engine of the starship."
Qiu Yu felt chilled from head to heart, "Why are you dismantling the starship?"
Gu Huai and Qi Guangguo smiled bitterly at the same time, "Isn't this because they were forced? There are enemies all around, and resources are scarce. If we don't dismantle unused starships, what else can we dismantle?"
"How many starships are there here? Have they all been dismantled?"
Gu Huai said, "I can't remember how many there were originally, but now they should be almost all dismantled."
Qiu Yu's feet were directly cold this time.
Gu Guangguo hesitated for a moment, "Because I have been responsible for the management of materials. According to my private statistics, there is a slight false report in the quantity. Added together, it is enough for half a starship. If you include the ones from the First Military Factory , it should be exactly one."
The soles of Qiu Yu's feet became warmer, "How should I get to the starship port?"
"This planet is incredibly big. Our intraplanetary aircraft cannot reach the universe even if it flies to several times the extreme height. So the only way to get to the starship port in the universe is..." Gu Guangguo pointed in the direction of the city center. , "Only using the teleporter located at Police Headquarters."
Qiu Yu said to himself, "No matter which direction we start from, we will eventually destroy the aliens... Please continue talking about the source of the information."
Gu Huai nodded and continued, "Any non-human race we encounter in this world is full of aggression. But a race called vagabonds is an exception. Not only is their appearance very similar to us, but they are also relatively peaceful. . In their words, they are absolutely neutral. But this is the territory of aliens who have almost destroyed the entire human race. The so-called neutrality of the homeless is not worthy of trust. The facts are indeed as we expected. That way. After the homeless people who have no interaction with us at all, there are the so-called wandering traders. They always carry strange products with them, and they price them without authorization and exchange goods with us. Although the government has carried out certain measures restrictions, but there are still many people who exchange for the novelty things in their hands. As far as I know, most of what they bring are daily necessities, but the things they take away from us include everything from military supplies to cutting-edge technology. .”
Qiu Yu frowned, "Businessmen are civilized?"
"It would be fine if it was just a pure business. But after the wandering merchants, there were wandering mercenaries. Depending on the price, you can hire anything from cold weapons to thermal weapons to energy weapons. We are also trying to hire Through some wandering mercenaries, they participated in the city's defense battle... They were simply weapons born for fighting. As long as they appeared on the battlefield again and again, victory would no longer be far away. But this also led to two It’s something that worries us a lot.”
Qiu Yu received, "Is the price neutral as they say?"
"Yes. Their hiring price is quite expensive, and they charge on a daily basis. Even wandering mercenaries who use cold weapons are difficult for our city to hire in large numbers for a long time. And neutrality means that our enemies are also the same They can be hired to attack us. It hasn't happened yet, but it could happen at any time."
A drop of cold sweat hung on Qiu Yu's forehead. Yes, it can happen at any time. But compared to the wandering mercenaries, the hired ones are likely to be mercenaries from another world. After all, the game still leaves the means to attack the opponent's civilization.
The way Qiu Yu looked at this moment made Gu Huai think that he was frightened by the methods of the wandering clan, "Tramps are unnoticed scouts. Wandering merchants carry out unequal commercial, cultural and economic invasions. Wandering mercenaries They are armed forces that are fed by others. Compared with other enemies, they are the most feared. Only after knowing the news that they wanted to sell to us more than a month ago did we realize that no matter how overestimated, , they are far scarier than we can imagine."
