"If something goes wrong, let me die here." Ignoring the advice of the surrounding human soldiers, a dwarf warrior opened his oxygen mask, sat down on the ground, and greedily breathed in the fresh air around him.
.
Compared with the air in Eiland Hill, which has been comprehensively treated, the air here has a pleasant natural smell.
"I would rather die like this than wear that oxygen mask that makes it difficult for me to breathe. There is no way I can fight with it on, and it will affect my breathing." The dwarf sat on the side of the road, looking at the people around him with complex masks.
The human soldiers stared at him.
In the eyes of these human soldiers, in addition to deep worry, there is also indescribable envy - not all of them have the courage to lift their masks and test the air of another world with their own lives.
Although it has been confirmed that the air in this world is not anything special similar to the air of the Magic Continent, the follow-up inspection work is still in full swing.
What scientists are most afraid of is that some areas of the Demon Realm contain terrifying creatures that can parasitize into the human body. For example, plants that can scatter spores and take root and sprout in the human body, or parasites that can enter the human body mixed in the air and take away the mind and life.
Insects and so on.
In short, before Chris traveled through time, earth civilization had discussed for countless times the terrifying and dangerous alternative creatures in the universe. Whether those alien monsters that only live in movies exist in the magical world is still unknown.
If a large-scale infection occurs accidentally, then Elan Hill will be like sending soldiers to the Demon Realm for sacrifice, and hundreds of thousands of people may not return to the Magic Continent alive.
Therefore, no matter what, before ensuring safety, the necessary protective measures must be as complete as possible.
"Brother! You'd better put on a helmet... It's safe here, but it doesn't mean that other places are as safe... This is an unknown world, we must be cautious." Holding a weapon, wearing a powered exoskeleton armor, and a transparent cover on his head
The masked platoon leader came over and patted the dwarf on the shoulder with his thickly gloved palm.
His equipment is very expensive. Being able to distribute it to his level shows that the Airan Hill military attaches great importance to the lives of soldiers.
"Those demons came to our world... and I didn't see any problems with them." The dwarf warrior stood up from the ground and angrily put his helmet back on his head: "Okay! I'm not here to come.
Trouble, obeying orders is the bounden duty of a soldier."
…
"Click!" The thick steel bars were placed on the cement base that had just been dried by magic. The surrounding construction workers immediately swarmed forward and inserted bolts as thick as human arms into the aligned holes.
Another group of people immediately installed the huge fixing nuts on the bolts and a huge metal base, which was easily completed with the cooperation of the helicopter.
The installation of the higher level has already begun, and they can easily complete dozens of similar projects in one day!
And less than a hundred meters away from them, the completed crane had already started working.
The thick crane hoists dozens of tons of goods, and countless containers have been piled up in layers. The densely packed various materials have turned this place into a huge distribution center.
Further away, Ireland's engineering team is already building various infrastructure.
They have built thick concrete walls, established launch bases for anti-aircraft missiles, and have even established several operational airports.
There are various helicopters parked at these airports. They are responsible for transporting troops in the early stages, hoisting various facilities, and transferring technical equipment required by various airports.
On the other side of the airport, various fuel trucks, firefighting trucks, ground guidance vehicles, and various pilot transport vehicles were parked neatly in a row and had been prepared for a long time.
Another airport was built earlier, and inside the built hangar, F-15 fighter jets with golden eagles painted on their wings were already parked.
There are no combat readiness buildings that pilots can use yet, but the foundations for these buildings have been dug.
The magician is cooperating with the construction workers to construct at a crazy speed. Next to the construction site, the bases assembled from temporarily modified containers have begun to operate at full speed.
In the outer areas of these bases, field radar vehicles have already erected various radars. Some radars are constantly rotating, while some radars are just square boards.
Around these radars, one or two missile launch vehicles with missile launchers erected were connected to thick and long cables, which were gathered together in a messy manner and connected to the body of the command vehicle responsible for directing their launch.
However, compared with their background, what we see in front of us seems very small and not worth mentioning.
Because, right behind these busy construction sites and countless various command headquarters missile positions, a super huge building like a pyramid without a spire has risen from the ground.
Airanhir's airport! A huge building that can support sky battleships and aerial transport ships is being built bit by bit over time.
…
"The experiment was a perfect success! The new magic protection device can reduce the weight of ordinary soldiers by 35%! The cost is reduced by 48%!" In the laboratory, an engineer looked at the latest protection tested
Convinced, he nodded with satisfaction.
The several magicians standing behind him also showed very excited looks on their faces. This latest technology proposed by them finally caught up with the critical moment of the expedition to the demon world.
"In this way, by turning on the magic expulsion barrier, dust and unknown gases in the air can be dispersed to a safe distance. It is convenient and simple..." A magician introduced the relevant magic principles, and the military representative standing next to him listened.
He is also very careful.
The current situation is that the construction team at the rear is okay. The three-proof isolation suit does not affect too many things, and it can still work even if it is barely worn.
But the front-line combat troops have to try their best to replace oxygen bottles, while also carrying excess replacement clothing for wear and tear, and fighting with these bulky equipment, which is life-threatening.
Front-line troops have been reporting the unsuitability of isolation suits, and the price of matching protective suits or protective armor has remained high, making the military eager to solve this disadvantageous problem.
Now that there is an alternative, even an immature alternative, the faces of the military representatives naturally feel much more relaxed.
"The most important thing is that there is no need to carry a mask or heavy protective clothing, which saves a lot of costs." An engineer made a simple calculation and said: "As long as the production and supply of magic crystals can be increased.
"
"This is not a problem. Greken and the Eternal Empire, including the Norma Empire, their magic crystals are strategic materials and can be deployed and used during the expedition." An officer said proudly.
"The important thing is that the soldiers' activities are no longer restricted, and the actual combat effect will be better..." Another officer looked at the simple exoskeleton armor and nodded with satisfaction.
A magician added, which was considered to point out some shortcomings: "Although the protection level is not up to the level of a closed protective suit, it should still be able to deal with the current demon world."
However, his reminder was ignored by everyone after a second. After all, as time goes by, the test results increasingly show that there are no too terrible parasites in the demon world, nor is there any too deadly poisonous mist miasma.
High-level protective measures do need to be appropriately simplified.
"Recruit warriors and go directly to the experiment!" The leading general directly gave his opinion.
In his opinion, the loss of hundreds of soldiers is just a number. After all, who in his position didn't start his career by licking blood with his knife and slaying dragons with His Majesty the Emperor?
"Isn't it a little too fast?" an engineer muttered quietly.
"It's not too fast. 17 hours ago, the number of people who reported taking off protective clothing on their own initiative has exceeded 3,000." The general sneered and said realistically to the "flowers" on the hotbed in the laboratory.
"Most of them are elves and dwarves...all the dragon troops refused protective clothing...but their number is relatively small, so the most are dwarf warriors with bad tempers." Following his words, the station
The adjutant beside him reported a series of illegal operations on the front line.
"Then let the dwarf warriors distribute this experimental device first!" The general thought for a while and came up with a compromise plan.
"Okay! Anyway, if they may be infected, then they have already been infected." Another general nodded and agreed to the plan.
"As a comparison, we still need to recruit some warriors and let them wear experimental protective clothing for comparison!" Then, he proposed a more complete plan.
"Understood! I'll do it right now!" the adjutant recorded his boss's order.
"The production of magic protective clothing will be arranged immediately! The new production line must be set up within 48 hours! There can be no delay!" Afterwards, everyone agreed.
A few minutes later, a movement to reduce the equipment burden on frontline soldiers began with great fanfare. The factory had even prepared it in advance, and there was not much technical difficulty. Soon, a new type of powered exoskeleton armor was delivered
Arriving at the front line, actual combat inspection work began.
