Metal umbrellas bloomed in the sky above the base, intercepting all biological missiles. William still had time to shoot down several black-winged aerial beasts high in the sky with anti-aircraft guns.
These huge aerial beasts, which are only a few kilometers high and fly very slowly, are living targets for the fortress's anti-aircraft guns. Even if they maneuver to avoid them, the shells are end-guided and can pursue them on their own, ensuring that they explode within a certain range of the target.
Seeing the four umbrella-shaped air defense systems with full firepower, completely protecting the fortress from the air, William finally handed over the command to his deputy. He boarded the mecha and lifted a several-meter-long mecha from the weapons rack.
He inserted a single-barreled cannon into a magazine marked with a special eye-catching mark, then came to the city wall and waited quietly for something.
Joseph had climbed up from the ground and climbed onto the city wall again.
The empty area outside the city that was originally blasted by small nuclear bombs has now been mostly refilled by war beasts.
However, Joseph was not surprised but overjoyed. After this attack, the beast tide outside the city was almost wiped out. Many lizard beasts were also wiped out. This little invisible thing likes to accompany the spineback beasts.
, often waiting until the number of casualties among the alien beasts is almost reached before moving out.
It's just that if the same conspiracy is used too often, no matter how stupid a person is, he will find a solution. Joseph used a miniature nuclear bomb to eliminate most of the spinybacks and lizards.
The giant rhino beasts charged against the hail of bullets as always, but their speed was too slow, and their solid bodies were not enough to stand in front of the obviously more powerful rapid-fire cannons on the fortress wall. Dozens of giant rhinoceros beasts did not rush to the city in the end.
They fell down one by one.
"Something is wrong. Why are there so few giant rhinos?" Joseph said.
"There's nothing wrong! Because they are all damn living missiles!" William was already a little frustrated. Umbrellas bloomed one after another in the sky, intercepting an endless stream of small living missiles.
In the blink of an eye, the ammunition inventory of the umbrella system was at its lowest, but after seeing the power of biological missiles, William did not dare to let any missile fall into the fortress.
At this moment, Joseph was standing in the position, carrying a huge rapid-fire machine cannon, constantly strafing the beast tide outside the fortress. As he strafed, he said loudly: "Did you find where the missiles came from?"
"No!"
"Can't even calculate ballistics? Damn it, I forgot they are alive again."
After another wave of living missiles was intercepted, no new missiles finally appeared. William stared at the sky with all his concentration, and did not dare to breathe a sigh of relief until a few minutes later.
"Gone?"
"It's gone... right?" William wasn't sure either.
"It's just gone!" Joseph ruthlessly swept the last few strange beasts into pieces and slowly lowered the muzzle.
William came to his side, looked at the devastated fortress, and suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong? Didn't we win the battle? The casualties are still within an acceptable range, why are you still sighing? Aren't you worried about those two little guys?"
"There is no need to worry about those two little guys, they will definitely not survive. If they are smart enough, they should change places early." After a pause, William said: "After several days of replenishment, we have expanded enough defenses.
The facilities and combat power have nearly doubled. I originally thought that I could easily deal with the beast tide again, but I didn't expect that they almost broke through the fortress. If there are more waves of living missile attacks, we will not have the ammunition ready.
, we can only watch them blow up the fortress."
"What do you think the next time the beast wave appears, what new tricks will it use?" Joseph asked.
William was silent and shook his head.
Joseph also sighed and stopped talking.
At Base No. 2, Chu Jungui sat on the weapons tower at the top of the base in a daze as usual. Lin Xi stood taller than him and simply stood on the barrel of the air defense tower.
She looked far into the distance and didn't know what she was looking at. She had to stand here for a while every day for the past two days. Chu Jungui didn't want to ask the reason, even if he wanted to ask, he couldn't. His brain was all used to analyze a
A very critical research project, new hard composite materials.
This composite material has the hardness of an alloy and corrosion resistance comparable to biological materials. In Chu Jungui’s plan, this material will be used to produce a new generation of mechanical components to replace the old transmission structure in the weapon tower
.In this way, the pointing of the weapon tower will be faster and more accurate, not only increasing the power, but also allowing Chu Jungui to consume less, indirectly increasing the number of weapon stations that can be controlled at the same time.
Anything that can improve firepower has always been a high-priority project.
His research process was going very smoothly, but was suddenly interrupted by a cheer.
"The beast tide is coming!" Lin Xi shouted happily.
Chu Jungui was stunned. The beast tide is coming. Is it such a joyful thing?
Lin Xi didn't pay attention to the strange expressions of the test subjects, and directly ordered all members on the communication channel: "Discover the beast tide and prepare to fight!"
Thanks to Lin Xi's excellent and meticulous planning, all combatants knew what they had to do in normal times and which positions they were in during wartime.
Three red flares were raised in the base to notify the soldiers who were out harvesting resources in this ancient way to return to the base.
The soldiers who were still collecting resources immediately jumped on the engineering vehicle and returned at full speed. The soldiers on duty in the base rushed to the predetermined position, and then quickly marked and took over the weapons station. Under normal circumstances, Chu Jun would not return to the marked weapon station.
will take over. Of course, when necessary, Chu Jungui still has the highest authority and can take over control of any weapons station at will, including Lin Xi's.
It only took a few minutes from the time the beast tide was discovered to all the weapon stations in the base pointing their guns in the direction of the beast tide. At this time, the beast tide forward had not yet come within ten kilometers.
The entire Base 2 was in dead silence, and everyone was waiting for the beast tide to arrive. Although they were still far away, looking at the dark area, you knew that the scale of the beast tide this time was far greater than before. Even some veterans of the Lancers, at this moment
My palms are also sweaty.
Chu Jungui has long regarded fighting as a part of his life. He is fearless and will not be arrogant. He calmly waits for the beast tide to arrive, just like waiting for his daily breakfast, without any fluctuations. Lin Xi also feels excited.
After calming down, she poked out a large number of gun barrels from her position.
At this moment, the little princess secretly connected to Chu Jungui's channel: "Jun Gui, will we die from such a huge beast tide?"
"Won't."
Chu Jungui's voice was very calm. The little princess was also infected and was not so flustered. However, she was still a little worried and asked: "Can we really beat him?"
"difficult……"
Chu Jungui's words made the little princess feel excited.
But he then added: "With so many war beasts, it still takes a while to kill them."
The little princess once again had the urge to strangle him to death.
