Chapter 2694 Heroic Sacrifice
Wuluanggu in the dense fog is like a nightmare for a mentally ill patient.
The ruins that have collapsed for hundreds of years still look like living tombs, with strange will-o'-the-wisps flickering in the pale, like countless pairs of eyes, staring at this helpless reconnaissance company.
The wreckage of puppet war beasts, spar chariots, battle puppets, and even starships are piled up with ruins—most of the ruins were formed hundreds of years ago, and they have long been rusty and covered with moss, vines, and various suspicious fungi. At first glance, the blanket looks like the internal organs of a gigantic beast, exuding a disgusting smell in the thick fog.
Even the crystal armor and the crystal chariot can't stop the invasion of this smell, perhaps, this is called fear.
Gao Huan sat in the middle of a reconnaissance car, put his head in a dark gold metal cover, and used the supernatural powers of the "hypersensitive person" to release his brain waves to the limit, sensing the abnormal magnetic fluctuations in the depths of the fog .
"How about it, Drunk Cat?"
It was rare for the company commander not to roar, but asked in a low voice, "Is the dog nose in your mind still as good as it used to be?"
"certainly."
Gao Huan squinted his eyes, entered a state of trance and darkness, and murmured, "There is indeed something wrong here, there is an intermittent strong magnetic field, which has repeatedly shot into the sky in the past week, and the intermittent rhythm is very regular. It doesn't seem to be formed naturally, but rather some kind of artificial...signal, and the surrounding fog exists to cover up the signal.
"It's so strange, this signal is so strong, I can even feel a beam of light shooting straight into the sky, even if there is a fog, the army's spiritual magnetic counterforce and the fleet in synchronous orbit shouldn't be unresponsive , they should have noticed long ago."
"Ha, what a coincidence!"
The company commander said, "The military headquarters is directly under the commander of the magnetic counter force, who happens to be one of the 'remnants of the four major families', who was suppressed just this week, and inside the Synchronous Orbit Fleet, in order to welcome the new emperor's ascension to the throne, a campaign has also been carried out." There was a vigorous purge, and many officers were quarantined for inspection, causing chaos and chaos. Who has the leisure time to study a bunch of insignificant signals?
"Forget it, it's useless to talk about it, tell me, which direction is the signal source?"
"should be……"
Gao Huan endured the sharp pain in his head, trying to identify the source of the signal.
Just as he was about to find the answer, a voice suddenly came from the communication channel.
"Boss, the blue spot has stepped on the thunder!"
When the company commander and Gao Huan rushed to the front of the team, the atmosphere was quite relaxed. Even the unlucky "Blue Banner", who unfortunately stepped on a landmine and couldn't move, still smiled nonchalantly. While accepting the ridicule of his companions, Still kept retorting.
Although the Holy League members sprinkled landmines on almost every inch of the ground on every planet when they evacuated, the landmines themselves are not a powerful magic weapon, especially the soldiers of the Blade Company have at least high-level Qi Refining Stage to Foundation Establishment Stage With low-level strength and crystal armor defense, at most half of the sole of the foot will be blown off, even if a leg is blown off, it will not be crying like a woman, as if the end is coming.
What's more, the Blade Company has the best engineers, and 99% of the landmines can be safely eliminated.
At this moment, an engineer was wearing protective clothing, squatting at the foot of the blue spot to study the landmine, he carefully dug half of the ground, revealing the rusty, pitted shell, which looks like an old-fashioned Tianhong-1 , powerful, but not difficult to eliminate.
However, as a hypersensitive person, Gao Huan smelled a strange smell in the air.
This is why the company commander brought him up to check.
"Wait, this mine doesn't smell right."
Gao Huan prevented the engineers from demining operations, "It seems to use the shell of Tianhong-1, carrying the combat components of Tianhong-3."
In a word, everyone around took a breath of air, stepped back a dozen steps, and turned on the spiritual energy shield to the highest strength.
The thunder stepper "Qingban", who was still smiling just now, was even more stunned, as if struck by lightning.
"Really, it's Tianhong-3!"
The engineer soldier was reminded by Gao Huan, carefully perceiving the internal structure of the landmine, his face turned pale in an instant, he paused every word, and sentenced Qing Ban to death.
The Tianhong-3 anti-infantry armor mine, more precisely, the "anti-crystal armor mine", is the most lethal to the infantry of the Empire among all types of mines in the Holy League. Once detonated, not only those who step on the mine, but also the surrounding area At a distance of 100 meters, there is almost no grass growing, and all companions who do not raise their spiritual shields in time will be affected. The standard crystal armor used by the empire's grassroots infantry cannot resist its violent fragmentation attack at all!
"Sapper, come back, Qing Ban, don't move!"
The company commander's complexion became extremely ugly, he stared straight at the "blue spot" who was stepping on a landmine, gritted his teeth, and said, "You have won the lottery, you know the power of Tianhong-3 very well, we don't have enough technology and tools to clear mines , you can’t hold on for long, as long as your heartbeat, pulse or psionic fluctuations change slightly, the mines will explode, we can’t help it, even the gods can’t help it.”
"Hold!"
Every muscle on Bleio's face was trembling, "Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!"
"It's unlucky for you, you have to take a step first, but it's not yet."
The company commander said, "You have to wait until all the brothers back out of a safe distance, raise the spiritual shield, and you have to die vigorously, understand?"
"me……"
Blue Spot's face was completely wrinkled together.
"Look at me, listen to me, you are hopeless, you know it very well, everyone knows it very well, but you have a wife and children in your hometown, you have to leave something for them, each of us will record it in the crystal armor Download the battle video, I can use the damaged crystal armor as an excuse to delete some videos, but I can’t fabricate it out of nothing—it will be discovered.”
The company commander said patiently, "So, you have to die a heroic death by yourself. The new emperor is about to ascend the throne. He definitely needs some vigorous fighting heroes, and he will not be stingy in rewarding the families of the martyrs. If you can be Going to Battle Heroes, your wife and children must be better off, right?"
"Fuck the battle hero, fuck the dog emperor!"
Qingban was about to cry but had no tears, and was shaking all over, "How can it be considered vigorous? Fuck!"
"Don't tremble, and don't cry like a bitch."
The company commander growled, "Straighten your back, say some bold words, defeat the false emperor, long live your majesty, no, no, no, don't say 'Long live the reformers', who knows who will win in the end?" To the false emperor, long live your majesty' is very good, no one will consider himself a "false emperor"! If you dare not do it, I can help you, don't worry, the boss will help you, I will count One, two, three, let's count to three, okay, there won't be any pain, I promise, come on, one..."
"What the hell is this shit called?"
Qingban trembled, "Down with the false emperor, long live your majesty, long live the empire! That's it—"
Before the last word "?" was uttered, the company commander suddenly drew his gun with lightning, blasting Qingban's head.
Before the headless corpse fell down, there was a "boom", and light like a rainbow fountain shot out from the bottom of his feet, covering a space with a radius of hundreds of meters.
Fortunately, all the soldiers retreated to a safe distance of 100 meters, and made the protection work to the extreme. Apart from the "clinking" sound of the spiritual shield, no greater damage was caused.
The bluish spots disappeared completely, only a uniform circle of blood spots proved his past existence.
"No pain, right?"
The company commander asked the soldiers around him with a gloomy face.
"No pain."
The soldiers were silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Looks like we've found the right place."
The company commander glanced at Gao Huan, "The high-end goods like 'Tianhong-3' are not prepared for us dirty and smelly big-headed soldiers. It seems that there must be something important hidden behind this minefield. , engineers, large-scale demining, and the rest, polish your tricks, polish your claws, and be ready to fight at any time!"
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
The mine-sweeping vehicle sprayed out a large number of submunitions and sparked dazzling arcs, simulating the life magnetic field of the immortal cultivator, and detonated a large number of mines, just like a gorgeous fireworks display.
The flames over the minefield hadn't been extinguished yet, and the Blade Company couldn't wait to march deep into the minefield.
The sad news of the loss of a companion just now did not add much depression, but instead made these unscrupulous soldiers even more angry.
And Gao Huan, after more than half a year of cultivation, seems to have found more and more instincts as a "super-sensitive person", keenly sensing every abnormal spiritual magnetic fluctuation in the air, fine-tuning the direction again and again, firmly Locked on the very center of the dense fog, where the signal source is located.
Until now, the depths of the mist are still continuously releasing strong signals to the sky, like a burning torch.
Even Gao Huan felt that the source of the signal was like a slowly blooming flame flower, to the point where it was unscrupulous and didn't care about being discovered.
When Dao Fenglian finally arrived at the destination under his guidance, everyone was deeply shocked by the scene before them.
In the depths of the valley, there is a long and narrow crack. In the crack, which is about 100 meters deep underground, there is some kind of conical magic weapon piercing high into the sky. Sound, forming a super strong magnetic field visible to the naked eye!
What's even more frightening is that in the depths of the gap, under this strange array of unknown purpose, there are countless hibernation chambers densely packed like insect eggs, and in each hibernation chamber there is a cold Saint Leaguer sleeping. Countless members of the Saint League have been awakened, climbed out of the hibernation cabin to manipulate the formation, and the remaining members of the Saint League also opened their eyes under the glass masks, showing no emotion.
On this planet that has been occupied by the empire for more than three years and is regarded as a "recovery area", there is such a secret base of the Holy League buried deep in it!
