Although they are thousands of miles apart, Lin Xi, William, Joseph and others are all restless, looking into the distance every day, looking forward to the early arrival of the beast tide. There are only two Jolly Roger bases that are so busy that they are constantly receiving supplies, soldiers and
Equip and repair base fortifications.
The casualty rate of more than half of the first round of attacks made them understand the true meaning of the beast tide. This was by no means an ordinary beast, and no other beast could bring such heavy casualties to the fortress-based defense of the Jolly Roger.
Fortunately, the distance between the two bases is quite close, less than 100 kilometers. According to normal circumstances, the two fortresses can support each other at this distance. But in fact, almost all the missiles brought down by the Jolly Roger cannot be used.
It can't hit that far. At least not chemical energy artillery.
However, the dual fortresses still have the advantage of objectively diverting the beast tide.
Among all the forces, only the Jolly Roger really hopes that the beast tide will come later, or preferably not at all. As for Hathaway, she has been missing for so many days and should have entered the ecological circulation system long ago.
On the seventh day, the beast tide finally arrived.
A piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the Doomsday Shadow Fortress, and a large red tide appeared on the map displayed in Cambrian, rolling in. William only glanced at the color depth and area of the red tide, and his face turned pale in an instant, and he squeezed out a few words through his teeth.
: "Double A level!"
"Eight a's have to be beaten." Joseph was very generous, patted William on the shoulder, left the command hall, and went straight to his mecha.
"I'm going to do some exercise." Kyle greeted William and prepared to leave.
William stopped him and warned: "Never take off the fighter plane!"
"Don't worry, you said so. I haven't lived enough yet. Just let the fighter plane park. Anyway, I brought two mechas here."
Watching Kyle leave, William returned to the command podium. This was his real post.
The Cambrian's early warning range is actually quite wide. There are still several hours before the beast tide arrives, but the Doomsday Shadow Fortress is no longer the pure fortification it was at the beginning. There are now several factories and repair shops inside.
, and more importantly, there are a large number of civilians. Most of these civilians are from poor backgrounds, and they are all attracted by the beautiful advertisements and high salaries. In their minds, the war zone is not terrible. Only front-line soldiers are in danger of their lives. They are just in the rear.
Service staff, nothing will happen.
However, it wasn't until they entered the ion storm clouds that they discovered that the war zone here was completely different from the one in the promotional video.
This group of civilians needs to be concealed, various factories and important areas need to close up defensive armor layers, and various forts, weapons stations and missiles all need to be in place. Therefore, the entire preparation process takes an hour to fully transform the entire fortress into a state of war.
Living missiles are naturally much faster than the beast tide, but according to past experience, living missiles usually arrive only a few minutes earlier than the beast tide. Therefore, William is not in a hurry and calmly waits for the arrival of the beast tide.
The red color on the map finally approached, and it was not until the beasts came within a hundred kilometers that William gave the order: "Prepare the Javelin missile, maximum speed, maximum penetration mode, launch!"
The fortress's missile area launch silo had already been opened. Following William's order, missiles were launched into the sky one after another, and then started to launch, spraying a faint blue light and flying into the distance.
In the fortress wall position, Kyle's heavy mecha stood motionless. He sat in the cockpit, watching the little blue fire disappear in an instant, and said: "Those are ion engines with a range of at least 10,000 kilometers, and they are used for
Strike targets 100 kilometers away! Now I finally understand why you applied to resume production of old-fashioned chemical energy-propelled missiles."
"Be serious, their missiles should be arriving soon. Trust me, you definitely don't want to be blown up by that thing. Damn it, what is that!"
Exclamations arose one after another in the communication channel. All the mecha pilots saw the group of black dots flying in the distance. The advanced optical system instantly magnified the image, and then everyone clearly saw the living bodies flying at full speed.
missile.
The missiles are nothing like what the veterans remembered.
The original living missile at least looked like a missile, and even its flight method was intermittent jet, somewhat similar to a pulse engine.
However, the current living missile looks completely different. The surface is covered with a layer of fine scales. The most eye-catching thing is that there is a huge one-eye on the warhead!
Kyle lost his voice and said: "Is this the living missile you are talking about? Will the accuracy of this thing be poor?"
The living missile is already rough and thick, but its accuracy is impressive. Now it actually has an extra eye on it. This is a real guidance system, and it is also intelligent.
"Needle! Needle!" Joseph had already started shouting when he saw the living missile covered with scales for the first time.
A special missile was launched from behind the fortress and faced the living missile group. It was short, thick and fat, like an oil drum flying in the air. It only had a main thruster, and even the attitude control engine was an ion engine.
It had traveled less than 10 kilometers before it met a group of living missiles head-on. At this time, it opened several small openings in its head and shot out heavy metal sharp needles.
The sharp needles are extremely fast, almost instantaneous, and when each sharp needle is fired, even though the main bomb has the engine at full power, it will slow down accordingly. Obviously, the energy of launching these sharp needles is extremely high.
The newly generated scales of living missiles are useless against the sharp needles. The sharp needles carry huge kinetic energy and easily pierce through their scales, then break into several pieces inside their bodies, rolling continuously, almost tearing the inside into pieces.
A ball of paste.
The mother missile shot out dozens of sharp needles in an instant, and the needles were all fired. However, the number of living missiles was not dozens, but hundreds!
The second needle missile has been launched, and the third one is being prepared. But when the living missile group reaches the sky above the fortress, there will still be at least one third of the living missiles!
William looked pale and ordered in a calm voice: "All members enter the bunker, the damage control and medical teams are ready for action!"
At this time, Joseph suddenly shouted: "Umbrella! Launch the umbrella, move forward to defend!"
"Umbrella?" William was a little confused. Even ordinary soldiers knew that umbrella missiles were already very difficult to deal with ordinary living missiles, let alone missiles with scales?
Joseph shouted anxiously: "Shoot quickly! They have eyes!"
William instantly woke up, passed over his subordinates, and activated the umbrella air defense system himself. Missiles soared into the sky and faced the living missile group.
You will soon know what it feels like to have sand in your eyes.
