Chapter 230: Nothing to Do

In the cafeteria of the ground base supply station, Commander Doug has finished his meal and is packing up his own plate, ready to take it to the recycling area.

For some reason, Doug always felt that today's meal didn't quite meet her expectations.

Because, she found that when she went to the buffet area again, no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find the fragrant roasted animal hind thigh that Little Annie had eaten?

So, this made her very dissatisfied!

You know, she, Doug, is the commander-in-chief of this ground base. Although she is not the one with the highest military rank at present, she is also the highest position on the ground anyway...

And now? She herself was just looking for that kind of food, something rare to eat, but the waiters in the dining area, how dare they say no?

Those bastards must want to treat them differently, right? Looking at the cute little girl to please?

She, Doug, saw with his own eyes the kind of good food that little Annie ate right in front of him. How dare they open their eyes and talk nonsense?

Those bastards! !

Although Doug didn't say much about it at the time, and she didn't make any statement, but she had already kept this matter in her heart, and there was always a time when she would wear shoes for those bastards!

Who made them dare to make things difficult for the leader? Do you still want to hang out with the Human Hope?

Don't they know that she, Doug, is not only the commander of the ground base here, but also the number two person on the Hope?

I just want to eat something to relieve my fatigue, but I can still be made things difficult?

This is really unreasonable...

Sulking secretly, after placing his tableware in the recycling area, Commander Doug was about to end today's not-so-perfect meal, when he turned around and saw two armored vehicles parked at the gate of the supply station. In the isolation area air valve inside the supply station.

"Lieutenant Galen? And Lieutenant Darius? Are you..."

After the toxic steam inside was quickly extracted and filled with air, soon, twenty of them walked out of the two closed armored vehicles used in the base, all with black faces, as if everyone in the world owed Their hundreds of millions of members of the two elite Marine Corps.

Doug is in a bad mood,

After seeing these elite marines who seemed to be in the same depressed mood, they couldn't help asking out of curiosity.

"Ah?! Hello, Commander Doug!"

As soon as he walked into the door of the restaurant, Galen couldn't help being stunned for a moment when he ran into Commander Doug coming towards him, and then hurriedly saluted.

"Sir!"

"Sir!!"

When the others saw Doug, they also stood still and gave a military salute.

"Okay, this is just a cafeteria, so there's no need to be polite!"

Doug waved his hand in time, making the people behind who were about to stand at attention stop, and then looked at Galen and Darius curiously again.

"I can see that all of you are not in a good mood? Is something wrong?"

If it was someone else, maybe Doug wouldn't waste his time asking.

But the group of people in front of her are the two most elite squads on the Human Hope side and the two frontline commanders who are most valued by her. Therefore, when she sees these people like this, no matter what, she will I have to ask the previous question.

"What else could be wrong? It's all caused by the copy of the melee training simulation map that Little Annie made for us. Forget it, sir, you'd better not mention this..."

Before Introduction could speak, Darius sighed heavily.

He didn't want to mention it, after all, what he said was full of blood and tears...

Then, Darius turned around and walked into the cafeteria first. If they didn't hurry up, they would have to wait until late at night for supper, or to have a hot meal tomorrow morning.

"That's right! It's all due to that melee training!"

Galen also agreed, and then gave an apologetic wry smile to Commander Doug and quickly ran over.

There is really nothing to say about this matter!

They, the most elite marines on the Hope, were actually beaten by a group of NPCs in the special melee training map created by Little Annie. If this is said, where will they save their face? ?

"..."

Melee training?

It's just a training session, what's the problem? Why is it still so mysterious?

Doug frowned, looking at these marines who were silent and secretive one by one, not knowing what the hell they were doing.

She made up her mind: when she has nothing to do at night, she will go to the simulation map where they had special training!

At this time, on the hemisphere on the other side of the ground base, those marines who sneaked into the cracks of the Grand Canyon to investigate the situation, unexpectedly returned to their previous starting point smoothly, and successfully called the soldiers who were still in the sky. The hovering armored transport spaceship picked them all up.

"Captain, I really didn't expect that our operation this time would be so smooth?!"

After sitting in the seat and seeing the armored transport spacecraft take off successfully, a team member with 037 on his chest finally couldn't help but speak in the channel.

Now, they are sitting in the cabin of the armored transport spacecraft intact, presumably, they should be very safe, right?

So, he couldn't help but start to relax a little bit.

Not long ago, when he saw the huge bug nest and those terrifying bug swarms at that gap, he even thought that they were all dead!

You know, at that time, when he saw that scene, his two thighs in the armor couldn't help shaking, and he almost peed his pants!

"Is it going well? Do you still want to fight those bugs?"

Captain 031 sat in a position in the cabin and placed his rifle, then glared angrily at 037 opposite him.

In the interstellar era, this kind of action of sneaking into the enemy's rear for reconnaissance or performing some kind of special mission, once discovered by the enemy, it is absolutely a dead end!

There will be absolutely no movies, TV shows or the kind in it, after being discovered by the enemy, you can still kill the Quartet and escape smoothly!

They are just ordinary marines, not ghost agents, special units with expensive power armor capable of stealth and anti-detection!

From Captain 031's point of view, this time, maybe the bug was too careless? Or, is it that they have been peaceful for too long, and have already lost their basic vigilance on this planet without natural enemies?

Or, in fact, their actions this time are really covert enough to not let the bugs find out?

But no matter what, these people have not only successfully completed the investigation mission assigned by the base, but also placed the important thing that the commander ordered them to put in!

This is enough! As for the others, don't worry too much.

"Captain, is your operation going well this time? What exactly is in that canyon?"

At this moment, the captain of the No. 2 armored transport spaceship chimed in curiously.

This time he was ordered to transport this group of marines to a place far away from the base to perform this reconnaissance mission, and he took a lot of risks in the first place.

In order to avoid the flying dragon-like insects that might appear, before, he deliberately drove the spaceship to hover high above the sky, not daring to get too close to the ground casually.

Then, he waited on it for almost four hours!

Now, after finally enduring this lonely and frightening time alone, of course he wants to ask Captain 031, anyway, this is not a violation of discipline!

He was quite curious about the following situation, but since these people were able to return safely and soundly, there must be no special circumstances, right?

"You don't want to know..."

Captain 031 didn't want to say anything more about it, but after taking a deep breath, he opened the mask of his armor, and leaned against the bulkhead of the metal seat while lying obliquely.

"By the way, I almost forgot to tell you. I think you'd better drive faster now, and it's best to pull the spaceship higher?"

After closing his eyes and pretending to fall asleep, the captain of 031 smiled. After suddenly remembering something, he said with a smile to the captain of the transport spaceship in the communication.

"Fly faster and fly higher? Why is that?"

The captain felt that the mission had been completed anyway, and their 20-man marines had already scouted the situation in the cracks in the Grand Canyon below, so why not fly back slowly now? In such a hurry?

"Because... we just buried a large-yield fusion explosive device below! Moreover, it is about to explode..."

When he came here before, 032 had always been taciturn, but at this moment, he suddenly said such a sentence in the channel.

"Ju, the fusion explosive device... still has a large yield? Ouch! My god, why didn't you say it earlier!"

After being stunned for several seconds, the captain of the spaceship finally came back to his senses.

Then, he was terrified, and quickly pulled a few buttons on the console, directly pushing the output of the two Titan thrusters at the rear of the armored transport spaceship to the highest level.

Immediately afterwards, after the engine at the tail of the spaceship spewed out two huge streams of blue particles, the captain slammed the joystick, making the bow of his armored transport spaceship almost at forty to the horizontal line. In the direction of the five-degree oblique angle, the maximum acceleration was fully driven, and after breaking through the sound barrier suddenly, it rushed straight to the sky.

After the spacecraft soared into the sky, the spacecraft that passed through the sound barrier caused the pressure around it to drop sharply, and the sudden low temperature caused by the sudden drop in pressure made the strong acid vapor in the atmosphere of planet JNO.3 condense very quickly. It turned into a tiny liquid. Looking at it with the naked eye, it was like a large yellow lump pulled down by a spaceship...

"Damn it! You guys, couldn't you say it sooner?!"

While gripping the joystick tightly, the captain began to curse.

He finally recalled it now, so it's no wonder that before that, when he came here, he always felt that the big square thing that the 032 Marine Corps member was carrying on his back was a bit of an eyesore?

He had never seen that the marines needed to carry so many supplies on the battlefield!

And now, everything can finally be explained clearly!

It turned out that his spacecraft actually carried a large-yield fusion nuclear device and flew such a long distance to perform a reconnaissance mission? !

damn it!

His ship is a transport spaceship, not a battleship, let alone a fighter plane!

Those bastard executives, without telling the truth, let him carry such a dangerous thing to carry out the mission casually?

"Isn't it just a nuclear device? And it exploded underground. We are now at high altitude, so we should be fine, right?"

037 looked at the captain's reaction, a bit inexplicable.

"You know what a fart!"

The captain didn't have time to explain too much, so he quickly grasped the joystick of the spaceship, trying to stay away from the island below and increase the distance at the same time.

Not long after, after the transport spacecraft with two huge blue tail flames flew out for a long distance, in the distance below it, the huge island suddenly gave out bursts of strong vibrations.

rumbling...

A dull and heavy explosion sound followed.

Then, a shock wave swept towards the spaceship high above the sky, causing the transport spaceship, which was still driving at a high speed, to become bumpy.

"Damn UPL..."

When the captain looked at the ground of the island at the back of the spaceship from the side window of the bow, he saw that the large piece of ground gradually turned into a mass of dark red color. Among them, it seems promising and conspicuous.

It seems that there is a powerful energy that explodes under the earth's crust and melts a large amount of rock?

He knew that the fusion explosive device must have detonated, and now, the big island's crust had been destroyed in an instant, no matter whether it was bugs or others, there was no possibility of survival anymore!

"..."

"It's spectacular..."

The other marines were either silent or amazed and looked at the ground from the window of the spaceship.

Where, under the cracked ground, red rays of light shot out from under the ground, and then, the red area gradually spread, and those red lights that escaped were like a huge spider web, Covering the entire Big Island in no time...

"May God forgive us..."

Fortunately, their operation this time was relatively smooth, and all the people have safely left the dangerous explosion area.

Although at the beginning, the other people were all concealed by the captain and 032, they didn't know that this reconnaissance operation was going to carry this crazy and dangerous thing.

But, in any case, it is enough that all things are finally finished perfectly now.

...

puff! ! !

Then, after the armored transport spaceship lowered its altitude and flew for more than ten minutes, it suddenly shook. It seemed that something hit the outer bulkhead of the spaceship?

Or, their spaceship hit something? !

"Not good! We were ambushed! It's that kind of dragon-like bug! There are a lot of them! It's over! Everyone, prepare to make an emergency landing!!!"

Contrary to the doubts of the marines, the captain manipulating the armored transport spaceship screamed loudly in horror as soon as he saw the warning lights flashing wildly on the instruments.

Because, now he finally saw from the satellite image: at some point, when they passed by here, above the ground, suddenly a large group of flying dragons flew up from nowhere, and began to attack his body. A spaceship carried out a violent poison sac attack.

Poof... poof...

In this short moment, countless poison sacs accurately hit the outer bulkhead of their spaceship, and after hitting the armor, they made a burst of sound like water polo bursting.

Although the captain of the No. 002 armored transport ship made the greatest efforts and avoided a considerable part of the poison sacs with his superb technique, most of the attacks still hit accurately and exploded outside the spaceship.

There was even a pair of highly corrosive poison sac liquid, which began to corrode his bow...

"Are there any weapons on the spaceship? We need to counterattack now and disperse them as soon as possible!!!"

Captain 031 also saw the hideous screaming flying insects outside the Xuan window.

It looks densely packed, there seem to be hundreds of them? They are constantly surrounding their armored transport spaceship, and they are constantly throwing highly corrosive and highly toxic poison sacs towards them.

"No, it's useless... Our engine has been destroyed... We are about to fall..."

After the captain finished speaking tremblingly, he closed his eyes in despair.

Because, he found that he had completely lost control of the spaceship now, and on his console, in those holographic interfaces and instruments, red warning messages were flashing everywhere.

And the most terrible thing is: In the damage screen of the spaceship, apart from the red alarms on all the fuselages, showing that the fuselage is being corroded by the strong acid of bugs, the two most important Titans to the spaceship The engine is already in a state of disconnection...

Area C of the ground base, here, after more than two days of leveling, the hardworking SCV engineers have almost cleaned up the battlefield where the swarms were fought at night.

Now, they have not only built a small interstellar airport here, and started trial production of transport spaceships and wraith fighters, but also flattened a large area on the other side, paved a large metal floor and built some full-scale spaceships. After the closed hangar, here, it quickly changed from an open space to an important airport facility for the ground base.

And our ghost agent, Colonel Anne, after eating and drinking enough, she has nothing to do, and she wandered here again.

Now, the tank that she occupied before has almost been played by her, and she is getting a little tired of it!

So, she once again set her sights on the new toys at the ground base, these wraith fighters that had just been deployed at the ground base.

"Sir, sir... We really don't have any other spare fighters here, so I beg you, can you stop messing with us again?!"

Little Annie, wearing red and white tight-fitting ghost armor, is wandering around in the huge hangar of the base's aviation brigade. She seems to be... planning to find a Wraith fighter that looks more pleasing to the eye?

And the reason why she didn't rush to act now was because she didn't see anything pleasing to the eye?

Following her was a second lieutenant officer of the ground staff of the aviation brigade. At this time, he was begging little Annie in a low voice.

He knew all about this little ghost's ability and record, as well as the other party's record of causing trouble in ordinary times!

At the same time, he also knew: Not long ago, this little girl had the feat of snatching a heavy siege tank by force! At that time, he was still talking about it with his colleagues.

However, what he never expected was: it's only been a few days, this little ancestor who can't be offended, she actually has her eyes on their aviation brigade again?

Judging from the opponent's appearance, it seems that he still wants to repeat the old trick and forcefully take away a wraith fighter?

"Oh, what are you in a hurry for? What a nuisance! I'm just looking around, really just looking around, don't come and follow me!"

Little Annie impatiently waved away this follower who had been following her since she came here.

(That’s right! We really just came here for a casual stroll, don’t worry too much, if you see something pleasing to the eye, you will take it away casually, and you will never be polite to you! It was snapped on the waist by the owner Annie Tibbers, the little bear, has already figured out very clearly what he thinks about his mistress.

What she said casually meant that she could treat others casually!

As long as you see something pleasing to the eye, no matter what method is used, whether it is stolen, robbed, or threatened as a gift, anyway, in the end, she will always get it away! )

Please shut up, Tibbers...

"Wow……!"

After bypassing a whole row of neatly parked Wraith fighters, Little Annie suddenly took a fancy to a Wraith fighter numbered 01, which was parked in a separate hangar that was a little smaller. inside.

The reason why Little Annie fixed her eyes on it was because the opponent's size and weaponry seemed to be much larger than those row after row of wraith fighters?

After discovering it, Annie's eyes lit up, and she quickly jumped into its open cabin.

"Sir?!"

After seeing the opponent's actions, the second lieutenant ground officer who was following behind was so frightened that he almost couldn't cry.

He felt that this little girl must have taken a fancy to this plane, right?

"Oh, don't bother me! I'll play casually and leave later!"

Seeing that the second lieutenant under the fighter plane looked up anxiously, Little Annie chased him away impatiently again.

(That's right! We'll just play for a while, and if we've had enough, we'll drive it away! Tibbers taunted his little master mercilessly again.)

"..."

After looking at the little bear on her waist with the frustrating and cute little brow, Annie felt that she was in a good mood now, so don't bother with it for now!

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

Annie, who had just closed the glass hatch of the fighter plane, had to open it again and reprimanded the second lieutenant on the ground.

Now, he has blocked his way!

Moreover, he also locked the wheels of this fighter plane above the ground with a lock, what kind of meaning is that? Are you afraid that you will drive this fighter away by yourself? !

It's really unreasonable! How dare you doubt the great Colonel Anne? ! It's the other way around!

Later, I must find a reason to lock him up in a small black room for three days!

"Second lieutenant! Now I have decided: this plane, from today onwards, it belongs to me! I order you, let go of that wheel immediately!"

Then, while the ground officer was begging in a low voice, little Annie quickly changed her face and announced another decision of hers relying on official authority.

Since this plane is obviously bigger than other fighter planes, then, she has definitely decided on this one! No matter what, she must occupy it and drive it away!

"Sir, sir... This plane, it is the special plane of the captain of the brigade, and it has to take on the important responsibility of commanding all fighter planes in combat. You must not drive it away..."

This second lieutenant ground officer was about to cry. Now that he met such a little ancestor, he couldn't beat him, and he couldn't scold him. When his rank was not as high as the other party's, he could only use this kind of pleading tone. Howling.

"How about this, except for this captain's plane, you can choose whatever else you want? I'll make the decision on my own. What do you think of sending you a wraith fighter plane?"

Seeing that he couldn't survive this bad situation, the officer was also a bachelor, so he directly put forward his own suggestion.

First try to coax this troublesome little ancestor away, and then make a report, let Commander Doug of the base have a headache!

"I don't want it! I just like this one!"

How could Little Annie just let him fool around with a few words? nonexistent!

She has now made up her mind: she wants this very good-looking plane, no one can persuade her!

"But, but this is the captain's landline... If you drive away, then what should we use to direct the air battle?"

The ground service second lieutenant officer was already thinking, should he stabilize the opponent first, and then contact Commander Doug at the base as soon as possible? Let her take care of this difficult little girl?

"Well, I used to have a tank! But now I'm tired of playing with it, so let's exchange it with you! It's parked next to the barracks, and you can just ask someone to drive it away!"

After finishing speaking, Little Anne didn't care what the ground officer thought, she jumped down and unlocked the lock, then jumped into the cockpit of the wraith fighter, and began to get familiar with the things that were a little different from those in the game. various devices and instruments.

"Tank, tank?"

The second lieutenant officer of the ground service became messy in an instant...

This little girl, what did she say just now? A heavy siege tank for a Wraith?

Fortunately, she can figure it out!

They are the air force brigade, what's the use of asking for a heavy tank?

Is it possible that the captain of their aviation team is required to drive a ground tank to command fighter planes for air combat?

"Second lieutenant! What are you in a daze for? Why don't you get out of the way?"

Stupid, it's not a good thing at first glance!

After closing the hatch of the plane, Little Anne angrily yelled at the officer who was still standing under the fighter plane.

If she doesn't get out of the way, later, when she starts the engine and lets the fighter plane take off vertically, the jet of high-temperature particles will definitely burn him!
