At Base No. 3 in Area A1, two veterans with dusty faces were leaning against the wall in the base. One of them took out a cigarette from his arms, lit it, and took a puff.
This action made the people next to me almost red-eyed.
"Okay, I'll give you one, just this one." The man couldn't bear the attention, so he threw out a cigarette.
The comrades beside them received a grateful smile. The two of them raised their heads and looked at the light green sky through the energy filter with excellent lighting.
"This is our fifth day here. The area has expanded to fifty square kilometers. I don't know how long this mission will keep us out. We are almost sick from killing bugs every day."
"Who cares? Who told us that we are an expeditionary force, and our job is to lick blood from the muzzle of a gun."
"Hey, I'm not afraid of licking blood. You don't know that I turned around yesterday and shot a beetle on the head. The disgusting juice splashed into my mouth. I don't want to experience that stinky taste in my life.
The second time.”
"Haha, why don't you swallow the high protein?"
"Go away, I need to take the cigarette back."
"It's all set on fire. Is there any reason to go back? Hey, tell me, the higher-ups said someone is coming this time. Which army will it be?"
"I don't know. I heard it came from a big planet."
"If those pampered soldiers dare to continue their lax behavior when they come here, I will have to practice hard with them."
"I'm not as reckless as you. Let's see if I can beat you first. If you can, I'll step on you. Damn, this is war, not just playing house."
The two of them were at the entrance of Base No. 3, and outside was a half-meter-high red grassland, which was collectively called the Red Field on their tactical map. Today was their rotation.
"Rustling", suddenly a rustling sound came.
The veteran who was taking out a cigarette suddenly became alert and stood up holding the pulse rifle.
"What's the matter, Lao Fa?"
"The sound is wrong?"
"It can't be bugs, right? We've already eliminated the bugs nearby."
Suddenly a piece of grass fell in the distance, and the soldier known as Lao Fa raised his gun and fired without any hesitation.
The unique clicking sound of the pulse rifle sounded, and a row of bullets had been fired first.
Plop, plop!
Some kind of juicy sound.
A smile appeared on Lao Fa's face. It was indeed a bug. The sound of this kind of ammunition entering the body was like nothing else.
But the two looked at each other and neither moved, because insects never act alone.
Sure enough, five seconds later, a wave of grass was moving quickly next to it.
"Gather the fire!!"
Lao Fa pressed down the self-propelled fire turrets in his hands this time, and they will fire repeatedly according to their own impact points!
Chug tug tug!
A minute later, the grass looked like it had been plowed, with broken limbs scattered all over the ground.
"Done, it looks like some lone bugs have re-entered our area."
"Yes, these Zergs are really very hidden."
The two were about to sit down again, when there was a "swish" sound, and a black shadow flashed out from the side. Without any hesitation, Lao Fa pointed the gun at his comrade and fired a three-shot burst.
Plop, plop!
Before his teammates could react, their entire faces were covered in thick green juice.
"What a damn risk. I almost confessed. I owe you my life, Laofa."
"Haha." The old man chuckled without saying anything. He picked up the half-length cigarette that he had just thrown away from the ground, blew on it and started sucking it happily again.
For an expeditionary force like theirs with a casualty rate as high as 27%, as long as they still have guns in their hands, they are in combat status.
This kind of insect's continuous cover-up raids have happened several times, but each time it was a small beetle less than half a meter. They have accumulated rich experience in eradicating this fast insect that does not conceal its movement.
At this time, a group of patrolling soldiers came over and looked at the two people at the gate: "Did you just find another insect?"
"Well, just a few small beetles have been killed, so they're fine."
"be safe!"
salute!
Return gift!
While the daily conversation was going on, a strange whistling sound suddenly came from the sky.
Then everyone's headsets simultaneously heard a call from their superiors: "Mobile troops enter the sweeper mecha and open up space for the spacecraft to land! Get ready to welcome our new comrades!"
Lao Fa and the patrolling soldier looked at each other.
Reinforcements from the military have arrived?
…
In the spaceship, it was the first time for the teenagers to wear full combat uniforms.
However, each person's face was covered with a respirator, which looked strange. Many people looked at each other and laughed.
Others were holding guns, but Mu Fan was holding the expedition saber tightly in his hand. If allowed, he would definitely throw away the gun behind his back as soon as he fought.
"Prepare to land in five minutes, confirm that your personal status is perfect!"
"Open the delivery channel and enter in order."
The tiger hunting team and another special operations team called the Man-Eating Sharks entered a passage together. Mu Fan looked down through the transparent string wall observation window.
The red ground is getting closer.
A touch of red is bright, and when the overwhelming red hits, it is a shock.
"This is the garrison area of the base. This area is called the Red Field on the tactical map. The grass here is dense and strong, and it is difficult to clear. Don't look at me like that. Compared to other places, this is paradise." Old Wolf
He said to himself that as a scout, he had an extraordinary ability to capture information from the front lines of the army.
"Boy, are you nervous?" Lao Lu looked at Bai Mao's slightly trembling appearance and couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"Nervous... what a hair! I regret not bringing a camera. This will definitely be posted on the Internet and attract a lot of attention." Bai Mao slapped his thigh, which made Lao Lu's teeth itch with anger.
"Little brother, what about you?" Tracy looked at Mu Fan's side face and suddenly asked, her husky and sexy voice attracted the attention of several people nearby.
"Me?" Mu Fan turned his head and shook it, "I'm not nervous."
"There is a high chance of losing one's life here, are you not afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, I will live well."
"Can my sister teach you how to shoot?"
"..."
Mu Fan's serious look once again made Tracy giggle non-stop. She really loved teasing this little hottie more and more.
As the star-carrying ship slowly decelerated, his feet trembled, and Mu Fan finally knew that he had landed on the land of Planet 131.
"Open the hatch and get out of the ship!"
The first thing that caught Mu Fan's sight was a large circle of soldiers standing on the ground where the red stalks still remained. They had a look of astonishment on their faces, and then burst into laughter.
"Didn't you see that none of us are wearing respirators? Where did this old soldier come from, so squeamish!"
"Are you here for sightseeing? Why did you ask me to wait here for a long time just for these soldiers wearing gas masks? Are you preparing for biological and chemical warfare?"
All kinds of unpleasant sounds were heard. This was a way for the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had been fighting alone for many days to vent their anger. Don't expect them to have a good attitude towards this group of pampered supporters.
"Confirm that the air is safe, the oxygen content is 23%, and there are no toxic gases. You can take off the respirator." Lin Hao's voice came through the combat headset, and the students from Landu Star Dingchuan Academy took off their masks.
Young faces began to appear in front of this expeditionary force one by one.
Finally, a gun-wielding man with a captain's epaulette spit out the gum he was chewing, and shouted with an evil look: "Are you here for tourism?! Tell me your number!"
