The battlefield is a long-abandoned industrial town, full of tall buildings and factories.

Chu Jungui leaned against a broken concrete wall, calmly opened the equipment box, took out an electromagnetic rifle, and then took out the ammunition and attached it to the back of the armor.

In his field of vision, dozens of targets have been locked, and they are leaping like rabbits and approaching quickly. It was obvious that more enemies were coming. It seems that the landing craft has attracted all nearby enemies.

Chu Jungui suddenly stood up, raised his gun, and fired three muffled bangs, causing a large cloud of smoke and dust to rise from a small house not far ahead.

The electromagnetic rifle projectiles were so powerful that they directly penetrated two walls. They entered from one end of the house and exited from the other end, cutting the three enemies behind the house into two pieces.

The rifle body flashed red, then returned to normal. This electromagnetic rifle, the standard electromagnetic rifle of the special forces of the Tang Dynasty, is very powerful. The disadvantage is that after firing three rounds in a row, the energy supply will be temporarily insufficient, and it needs a delay of two seconds to continue shooting.

Rose's voice sounded in the communication channel: "I'll go up there."

A hook shot out of the wrist of her armor and was nailed to the roof of a 20-meter-high factory building. As the hook was recovered, she was lifted directly up. Behind Rose was carrying a large gun that was almost taller than her entire body, and disappeared on the roof. A moment later, a gun barrel with a muzzle as thick as a fist protruded from the cracks in the bricks.

The remaining four warriors also found their respective positions, leaning against each other, and in the blink of an eye they swept down the enemies who entered the range.

The muzzle of the gun on the roof of the factory suddenly vibrated, and there was an earth-shattering explosion a hundred meters in front of Chu Jungui. A house was blown away, and several people flew up in the ruins. It was obvious that they would not survive.

Chu Jungui shook his head and put down the gun in his hand. The target that had just been chosen was served in a pot by Rose.

The one in Rose's hand can no longer be called a sniper rifle, but should be called a sniper cannon. It is extremely powerful against ground targets, with a killing radius of 30 meters in high-explosive mode. It has turned the point killing of sniper into an area coverage mode.

At this time, a red alarm suddenly lit up in Chu Jungui's field of vision. With lightning movement, he slapped the weapon box next to him. A cover plate was removed from the box lid, and two drones were shot out from inside. Although this UAV is only the size of a kettle, its full name is a battlefield tactical direct fire defense system.

The two drones ejected directly to an altitude of 100 meters, and then each fired three to five high-energy laser beams, which shone on the roaring artillery shells, detonating them one after another.

Chu Jungui stood up and knocked down the three enemies with three "boom-boom-boom" sounds. Change positions again, wait two seconds, then get up and shoot three times. The full power of the electromagnetic rifle can easily penetrate a 30cm homogeneous steel plate. Ordinary armor cannot block a single shot.

An enemy soldier was thrown away by the aftermath of the explosion and was fortunately only slightly injured. As soon as he had an idea, he immediately hid behind a thick steel pillar. As soon as this violent maneuver was completed, an electromagnetic bomb whizzed past, leaving a deep mark on the steel pillar, and then continued forward, flying to an unknown destination.

The soldier narrowly escaped death, his heart almost jumped out of his mouth, and he prayed quickly. But before he finished his prayer, there was another roar, a big hole suddenly appeared in the steel pillar, and the soldier's head disappeared.

Chu Jungui's side of the battlefield was suppressed by Rose's long-range firepower, and any fish that slipped through the net could not escape Chu Jungui's pursuit, so they pushed forward step by step.

Behind the two men, four soldiers formed an airtight fire network, firmly blocking the enemy troops rushing from the other direction and protecting the rear of Chu Jungui and Mei Mei.

The fierce battle lasted for half an hour. The enemies attracted by the landing craft left hundreds of corpses and retreated in confusion.

After confirming that it was temporarily safe, Chu Jungui took the lead to walk out from behind the bunker, dragged up an enemy's body, and placed it on a stone.

These enemies were all wrapped in dark yellow or brown cloaks, and some had linen strips wrapped around their armor. This allows them to blend in well with their surroundings. However, this simple and primitive camouflage can only bully the equally primitive army. A slightly more advanced comprehensive imaging system can make them invisible.

The armors they wore were obviously patchwork, with all the main components having different models. A thick steel plate can often be seen welded to important parts to enhance defense.

Rose appeared next to him, shaking his head slightly. This kind of hard armor defense can only deal with chemical kinetic energy weapons, and is completely useless when facing electromagnetic power weapons. Even if an electromagnetic bomb with a muzzle speed of two to three thousand meters cannot penetrate the armor, the kinetic energy of the instant impact can kill the people inside the armor.

These warriors rarely even have panoramic visors, instead using old-fashioned eyepieces. The joints of the armor are mostly made of soft sealing structures such as rubber, and some of the power pipelines are even exposed.

Chu Jungui picked up their weapons and looked at them. Most of them used chemical kinetic energy weapons, and a few used high-power laser guns, which were obviously used at close range. However, the melee weapons they are equipped with are very interesting. Most of them carry powered daggers and saws. This dagger saw is not designed to cut wood, but can cut steel plates and cut through the shells of many lightly armored targets.

A few even brought electric welding and cutting machines, obviously to deal with thick alloy plates.

Seeing this, the identities of these people can be easily revealed. Scavengers, this is a common name in various galaxies, also called scavengers, etc.

Scavengers are often found on resource planets with depleted resources, and are the lowest level of the entire planet. They go in and out of ruined mines, fighting to the death for some valuable minerals or equipment.

A landing craft that had just crashed was a priceless treasure in the eyes of these people, and they did not even care about the risk of fighting on the frontline battlefield between the two sides.

Rose opened the visor of a scavenger and looked at the distorted, trouble-covered face below. She frowned and closed the visor again.

Chu Jungui released another reconnaissance drone, looked at the surrounding image terrain, pointed at the factory where Rose was originally used as a sniper position, and said, "We will set up a defensive position there. We will probably have a tough battle soon." "

Rose looked at the terrain map transmitted back by the reconnaissance drone and said: "We can set up three support fire points in these places. If the opponent is only of this level, then no matter how many they come, it will be the same."

"Of course the opponents cannot be of this level, and their numbers will be a big trouble for us. As for the fighter planes..."

Chu Jun returned to the sky and glanced thoughtfully.

Rose kicked a weapons box next to her and said, "We brought this. The Federation will not send fighter planes to die."
