Chapter 1007 A desperate, airborne battle!

"Every lowered unit, please be prepared. The airdrop operation will begin in fifteen seconds!"

In order to preserve the strength of the Skati as much as possible in the early stages of the battle, the Skati did not approach the giant tree for airdrops. Instead, it sent dozens of transport aircraft to fly towards the gap in the energy shield in a dispersed charge formation.

.

I don’t know why, but Ark didn’t make any counterattack this time—not only did it not intercept these fighters and transport planes, it didn’t even try to fill the energy gap.

"I always feel that something is wrong..." Hound stared at the screen intently and murmured, "This is really going too smoothly... Could it be the opponent's trap? Please enter the trap?"

"It's hard to say." Chi Hanfeng shook his head, "Maybe the birth of this giant tree has cost the Undead Crew Association too much, and they no longer have time to take care of us..."

"It shouldn't be." Hound immediately questioned, "With the behavior of those bastards from the Immortal Crew, it is absolutely impossible to leave such a big flaw. They knew that Ke Lan and Yagunaktor were out of control.

I also know that the survivors in the wilderness have formed a survivor alliance to fight against them, so it is impossible not to take any precautions."

Hound took a deep breath and continued: "Unless, they deliberately sold this flaw to us."

"Then assuming this is a trap, what are they planning?" Chi Hanfeng frowned, "Are they planning to trick all our living forces into the Ark and then annihilate them in one fell swoop?"

"It's hard to say," the hound looked confused, "but time waits for no one, and we have no chance to test it. It is estimated that the undead crew members have understood this, so they dare to do this... This is no longer a conspiracy, but a conspiracy.

seek."

"Yes, we have no choice." Ivan continued, "If we choose to go all-in, we will easily fall into their trap; if we hesitate, we will wait until the roots of the giant tree penetrate deep into the earth of Planet Alpha.

Then we will never have a chance to make a comeback."

"Then why not just be reckless to the end!" Leighton's loud voice rang out, "No matter what the damn trap is, just put the annihilation bomb in your fucking mouth. There is an old saying in China. Yes, it's called

Break through ten guilds with one force!"

"One force can defeat ten enemies." Hound rolled his eyes at Layton and corrected him.

"Anyway, it's almost the same. You just understand what I mean." Layton waved his hand, "I don't believe it. They can still resist the attack of the annihilation bomb... If they can really resist the attack of the annihilation bomb, then in this battle we

There was no chance of winning from the beginning, and it would not be unfair to lose!"

"Okay, will you die if you stop saying a few words..." Hound raised his leg and kicked Layton on the butt, "Ke Lan and the others have already set off. If the annihilation bomb fails to destroy the giant tree, then

We are left with the only option."

Hound didn't say what this only option was, but everyone present knew it.

"Crash into it with the Yagunaktor and die together with the enemy."

…

There are a total of sixty-four transport aircraft in the first batch. Most of these transport aircraft have removed most of their weapons and armor in order to maximize their speed and load capacity... In the face of Ark's defense measures, firepower and defense power

It makes no sense at all - even battleships can't withstand it. Even if the armor strength of these transport planes is increased to the upper limit, they will fall in one hit.

The only thing that works is speed.

Sixty-four transport planes soon flew over the energy shield gap. Marines and tactical mechas jumped out of the cabin like dumplings, falling downward at a free fall speed.

These airborne troops are not equipped with parachutes. Parachutes will slow down the descent speed and can easily turn the airborne troops into living targets in mid-air. Therefore, the soldiers only wear a bat-wing suit that can control the flight angle in the air. As for landing on the ground,

The impact force is completely resolved by cushioning air bags and elastic mechanical exoskeleton.

The soldiers selected as the airborne troops were all augmented men, and a group of them had undergone temporary augmentation surgery. They had just come off the operating table a few hours ago, and even the sutures at the incision had not healed yet.

Intensive surgery does not guarantee that they can survive the airborne process, and may even cause wounds to burst or a series of other postoperative sequelae under the huge impact... But in order to increase the probability of success in combat operations, these

The soldiers accepted the surgery without hesitation.

Everyone knows very well that if they lose this battle, human civilization will most likely come to an end.

For Ke Lan and the others, it is not only the human civilization on the Ark that has come to an end, but also the "inheritance" that has continued from human civilization in an unknown dimension to Alpha Civilization and then to the Ark Civilization.

This torch in the dark night is like a baton, passed to each other by countless human civilizations, and now it has been passed into their hands. Suddenly, there was a heavy rain in the dark night, and the cold rain slapped everything on the earth, and the flames kept swaying.

, as if it would go out at any moment.

Ke Lan didn't know how many times different human civilizations had encountered "heavy rain" like this in the process of this inheritance... But since this torch can be passed to their hands, it means that those civilizations are hard-pressed.

Withstood the baptism of heavy rain alive.

Even if civilization collapsed and individuals died, they would not let this torch of hope go out.

Then Ke Lan can't let the torch be extinguished in his own hands!

"Height 300! 270! Enemies found below! Prepare to attack!" The roar mixed with the roar of the wind echoed in the headphones of every airborne soldier. Looking down, they could clearly see that there were many people on the platform below.

Black figures are waiting in formation.

Directly above the core area of ​​Ark is a huge platform. There are many important buildings built on this platform, such as Ark's main signal tower, the central antenna of the radar system, array air defense turrets, etc. When Ark takes off, these buildings

They can all be retracted into the Ark, just like the "Third New Tokyo City" in the anime called "Neon Genesis Evangelion" that can sink into the ground.

But these buildings did not shrink underground at this time, but turned into ruins one after another - these ruins were not the work of the previous round of bombers, but the work of the giant trees right in front of them.

When the giant tree "broke out of the ground" from the core area, the entire core area platform was squeezed and cracked, the floor panels were torn and deformed, and the buildings fell down like dominoes. The originally most important area in the upper part of the Ark was destroyed in a short period of time.

Within a few seconds, it was razed to the ground.

The men in black observed by the airborne troops were standing among these ruins, holding up guns and shooting into the air continuously. However, the airborne tribes fell very fast, and it was difficult for ordinary firearms to target them. Only a few were unlucky.

The good guys were hit by stray bullets, and most of the other airborne troops passed through the rain of bullets and landed on the high platform.

Ke Lan and Ze Luo secretly mingled among the first batch of airborne troops.

The battle plan that Ke Lan told General Maginot and Major General Alexander was to "first let the Skati and the Survivor Alliance troops tear open the gap in the energy shield, and clean up the enemies around the gap, and then let Ya

Gunak Tol's 'Star Destroyer Cannon' opened a hole directly into the root system of the giant tree, and finally Zeluo carried the annihilation bomb into the root system area to blast it."

But this is just a plan on the surface. Ke Lan knows very well that in the Survivor League, there must be spies planted by the undead crew. After this combat plan is issued, the spies will definitely find ways to pass the news back to the Ark... Ke Lan

Lan can't even fully trust the command system of the Survivor Alliance. Once there is a mole among the staff, the Undead Crew will have already grasped it in advance without even waiting for the combat plan to be distributed to the front-line combat units.

All information.

Only by taking the enemy by surprise can we attack him unprepared.

Ke Lan directly chose to sneak into the first batch of airborne troops... If this was a trap, then he would simply use a trick to penetrate their defenses and penetrate their hearts before the undead crew members could react.

The traps used to deal with ordinary soldiers cannot stop Ke Lan and Ze Luo. What Ke Lan wants to fight is this information gap.

"Land to the ground immediately. When using the space ability to buffer, try to use some disguise without being too obvious." Ke Lan said to Ze Luo, who was hugging Ke Lan's chest like a koala at this time - look

It seems that the two people are tied together with seat belts, but in fact they are "sitting" in a "space content" that is invisible to the naked eye.

This space container can not only block the bullets fired at them, but can also adjust the position of the two of them at any time to ensure that the two of them land where they want to land.

"No, it's better not to take risks." In an instant, Ke Lan changed his mind again, "Put away your abilities. I can't guarantee whether there will be people in the undead crew who can sense space fluctuations. Adjust your speed.

We landed in a free fall state."

"Okay." Ze Luo said in Ke Lan's ear.

The space container surrounding the two people suddenly disappeared, and the high-speed airflow mixed with gunpowder smoke and the smell of burning instantly poured into the gap between Ke Lan's neck, and there was a loud whistling sound in his ears... The two of them were about to collide heavily.

On the high platform, Ke Lan pulled the rope around his waist hard, and several huge air bags immediately expanded, wrapping the two of them in them.

This kind of cushioning airbag was inspired by early space probes. However, compared with the prototype product that bounced around like a ball for a long time after landing, this kind of cushioning airbag has a pressure regulating valve inside and is painted on the outside.

With a layer of viscous agent, when it is impacted, the squeezed side will quickly release the air pressure by adjusting the valve to offset the impact and rebound force as much as possible.

The air bag that wrapped the two people only bounced twice and rolled to a stop less than twenty meters. Ke Lan immediately released the gas in the air bag and pulled Ze Luo out of it.

"Time Stop" is turned on——

Everything around him turned into a black and white freeze frame. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ke Lan observed the situation on the battlefield to his heart's content.

Those men in black who blocked the airborne troops were obviously corrupted modified humans...or, in other words, "special" clones created specifically for combat. Control chips were implanted in their brains, and they would never

Betraying the orders of the Undead Crew. The body mutations caused by complex biochemical modification surgery and erosion have given them powerful physical strength and terrifying healing abilities.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness alone, these men in black are far superior to the airborne troops. With the firearms in the hands of the airborne troops, it is difficult to kill them completely. Even if they are mowed down with heavy machine guns, these men will still struggle to gather together.

Come together, condense into a human form... or some other alien monster, and go into battle again.

The only thing that could kill these corroded men in black was the flamethrowers equipped by a few soldiers and tactical mechas. Only those men in black who were burned to char by the flamethrowers showed no signs of resurrection.

But at this point, these men in black seem to be easier to deal with than the containers of erosion seeds.

Some sharp-eyed soldiers have discovered this. After they "kill" a man in black, they will throw the body into the fire before the other person is resurrected - the smell of burning protein is there.

The smell permeated the battlefield, even overpowering the smell of smoke and blood for a time.

When the time stop was lifted, Ke Lan pulled out the large-caliber pistol from his waist at a speed that was almost as fast as an afterimage, forced the muzzle of the gun into the mouth of a man in black who rushed forward, and pulled the trigger.

The bullet directly took away the second half of the opponent's head, and the splattered blood and brain matter directly splashed on Ke Lan's mask and clothes. Ze Luo originally wanted to use a space barrier to help Ke Lan block these filth, but Ke Lan

Lan once again signaled her not to use space power.

"The people of the Undead Crew are definitely watching this battlefield. Before we find a way to get to the roots of the giant tree, we must disguise ourselves as ordinary soldiers as much as possible." Ke Lan said in a voice that only Ze Luo could hear.

"Ordinary soldiers won't have the reaction speed you just did." Ze Luo said expressionlessly.

"Well... there are some relatively high-level enhanced people in the elite force. It's normal, as long as they don't act too eye-catching." Ke Lan said.

Just as the two people were leaning against each other and shooting at the men in black around them, a "Tiger Hunter" tactical mecha painted in a very inconspicuous iron gray tore through the heavy siege and approached the two people.

in front of.

It was not only Ke Lan and Ze Luo who got into the first batch of airborne troops, but also Valentina who was driving the "Tiger Hunter" - Chi Hanfeng originally refused to let her come, but Valentina

Na insisted on participating in the assault, but Chi Hanfeng couldn't resist her at all, so he had no choice but to agree.

Although the shell of this tactical mecha is a "Tiger Hunter", the internal structure is actually all customized high-end parts. It is a "big toy" that Layton assembled by himself during his free time. Because the Blasphemer's target is too high

Obviously, this machine was temporarily lent to Valentina for use.

"We are going to move due west." Ke Lan shouted towards the "Tiger Hunter", "There should be a vertical passage for helicopters to land directly to the apron on the next level!"
