Chapter 453: Wave Retreat "Company Badge"

Beep-beep--.

As a rapid reminder sounded, Jaynes' heart sank suddenly, because this directly announced the ominous fact that all the clone soldiers of the three companies had been killed.

Then, the real-time status diagram displayed on the screen gradually changed from yellow to deep red, and then to the final dimness, as if all "life" was ruthlessly swallowed up at this moment.

"."

And through the clones' shared vision, Jaynes witnessed those deformed, corrupt little guys reappearing again, like waves of weird waves, immediately sweeping the clone soldiers' front.

They rushed forward desperately, waving their thorns and biting their fangs. Each individual seemed insignificant, and the threat of a single unit was indeed not comparable to that of other powerful enemies.

However, when their number becomes endless, it will become extremely difficult to deal with.

Jaynes immediately thought of the infected form of the Flood--those things that aim to devour and assimilate.

Although their individual strength is not great, once their numbers accumulate, even the Astartes may find it difficult to deal with them.

At the same time, the most disgusting thing about the infected form is that they can transform intelligent life into a part of the Flood army.

In addition to the twisted and deformed appearance of the Jiralhanae and the Jackals, as well as Chris Redfield's reminder,

do those funny-looking little things also have some kind of infection and assimilation capabilities?

At this moment, the shared vision picture has not been completely "extinguished". The positions of the clone soldiers have become fragmented, and the final counterattack is like a weak "fire" that gradually extinguishes in the darkness.

Boom. Boom——!

But just as Jaynes was secretly speculating, the chip placed at the back of the clone's head seemed to detect that the clone's body was abnormal and was likely to be controlled by the enemy, so it directly chose to detonate.

And the noise caused by the explosion was clearly audible even to them on the surface.

And the shared vision picture also completely dissipated.

Presumably, they can also use the unconscious, emotional and "soul" cloned bodies for their own use.

Seeing this, Jaynes, who was already on guard, raised his vigilance again and reminded on the communication channel:

"Everyone prepare for battle!"

"."

This time, there was no response in the communication channel, only silence, as if everyone could feel the tension and severity of the situation.

Soon-

"Doomak! Mak'ee la'nam vi'tarak che, way'ee kotan!"

(Haha! Let those heretics understand the true meaning of life!)

"Ruv'ka, jor te Qik!"

"

(For my Lord!)

"Toom'ka varath, kol'ah hai'yai kresh! ”

(All things decay, but all living things are immortal!)

Soon, before the figures of the heretics officially appeared in everyone's field of vision, their nasal roars reached everyone's ears.

When the first ghost-faced beast rushed out of the rift, the heavy-armored tyrant at the forefront immediately pulled the trigger of the plasma cannon.

Ri~Boom——Boom——!!

A roar followed, and the energy core of the plasma cannon group exploded, and a powerful plasma cannon group shot out.

The huge light instantly enveloped the ghost-faced beast, and the energy fluctuations of the explosion even shook the rock wall of the entire collapsed area.

And the sparks of the plasma explosion flew everywhere, almost directly "vaporizing" and "evaporating" the ghost-faced beast. ", along with the cracks leading to the surface, were also covered by a strong energy shock wave.

However, the heavy-armored tyrant did not stop the attack, and other tyrants and Cyclops mechas did not hesitate to join the fierce fire output.

The plasma artillery group, hard light beams, and Gauss ballistics intertwined into a network. Those heretics who were about to emerge were covered by dense firepower and temporarily fell into the "unable to raise their heads" attack.

It seems that the tyrant and the mecha driver have a clear goal, that is, to completely bury the cracks leading to the outside world and the surface, so as to achieve the offensive to block the heretics.

However, Jaynes knew in his heart that since the ghost-faced beast had said "live prey, walked into my lord's trap! "This sentence indicates that there may be more than one entrance and exit to the surface.

Just as the thought came to Janes' mind, the dynamic scanning system quickly detected that the heretics under the collapsed area began to make abnormal movements.

They were no longer limited to gathering in the same place, but gradually spread out.

Then, this group of heretics broke out in the weak geological layer, and the huge and violent sound of breaking the ground echoed in the air.

The next second, those guys rushed out of the ground like a tide and launched a new round of attack on the landing area where everyone was.

In an instant, the heavy armored tyrants, cyclops mechas, ODSTs and members of the special forces opened fire at almost the same time.

Ta-ta-ta!

Puff-puff!

The fierce roars of various types of weapons were endless, intertwined with the explosions.

Different types of projectiles cut through the air, like a series of "straight lines" of death, accurately shooting at their respective targets.

Although the bodies of those heretics had been severely deformed, they still advanced at an astonishing speed, almost non-stop rushing towards the position.

As the number of heretics continued to increase, the situation became more and more complicated.

Whoosh—whoosh whoosh——!!

They also began to fight back, firing a large number of plasma cannons and thorn-shaped crystals, and these attacks were like dense rainstorms, instantly covering everyone's defense line.

The roar and the brilliance intertwined, and the visibility dropped rapidly, as if entering a battlefield without sunlight.

And everyone's disposable energy shields and portable shelters bore most of the attacks.

As the intensity of the heretics' attacks became more and more fierce, the strength of the disposable energy shields also gradually weakened, and the portable shelters began to crack in the fierce attacks and could not provide enough shelter.

The heavy-armored tyrants and cyclops mechas, which were the first to bear the brunt of the attack, suffered concentrated fire from the opponent.

And when the wasps with "large moth" wings swarmed out of the ground and flew into the air, Jaynes and others would face all-round attacks.

At the same time, Jaynes noticed that more unusual creatures appeared in the heretic camp.

These deformed creatures have almost completely lost their "human form" features. Their bodies are swollen, their surfaces are covered with disgusting pustules, and their heads and abdomens have a large number of secondary mouths and tentacles. They are truly unrecognizable.

As soon as these guys emerged from the ground, they began to spray dense green "ink".

The moment the liquid touched the ground, it began to corrode and dissolve, emitting a disgusting smell.

It seems that every drop of liquid is like a deadly poison that can quickly erode all substances.

! !

Seeing the group of fat and huge guys appear, Jaynes's face changed.

And before he could command the team, everyone had already begun to adjust the formation, and at the same time concentrated their firepower on the group of guys to try to prevent them from approaching.

Just as the situation on the battlefield became increasingly tense, several ODST and special forces members at the front of the front line were already exhausted from dealing with the endless plasma artillery and thorn-shaped crystal attacks, so when faced with the sudden "ink", they simply couldn't dodge and were directly hit.

They were completely wrapped in it.

Hiss——hiss——!

The moment the dark green liquid came into contact with their combat uniforms and armor, it made a violent corrosion sound.

The originally solid alloy armor and protective layer were immediately corroded and as fragile as paper.

The protective equipment used to protect their lives became the catalyst for their death.

As the corrosion spread rapidly, the surface of the combat uniforms and armor began to dissolve, revealing the skin and body inside. The fragile flesh and blood were directly exposed to the low temperature and low oxygen air, allowing the disgusting liquid to continue to erode.

"Ah!"

"Uh"

The painful howls of the soldiers came from the communication channel.

The sound was full of unbearable pain and fear, and every shout was like a sharp pain that tore the heart.

Their bodies were directly corroded by the liquid, and the flesh and blood began to dissolve, revealing the bones.

Those warriors who were once full of momentum and strength eventually became unrecognizable and could no longer make any sound.

Within a few seconds, their bodies quickly lost all vitality, their flesh and blood rotted, and gradually turned into a terrifying skeleton.

At this moment, they completely became silent dead, and completely became the "sacrifices" of this operation.

You must know that these elites have been strengthened apart from their bodies, and their wills are much tougher than ordinary people. Even if they die, they will not make such a scream.

Presumably, the liquid spit out by those guys is not only highly corrosive, but also can make the elites suffer from the pain of the soul.

"Cao Nima!"

As his soldiers and friendly units fell one after another, Janes' anger finally broke out completely, and he couldn't bear it anymore and cursed.

Although he was usually known for his easy-going and humorous personality in the army, and even a little unremarkable, he was a famous "protective calf" in the army. He has always been very good to his subordinates and regarded them as brothers. It is this deep friendship that has earned him a high prestige in the 36th Fleet.

This is another reason why ODST chose to remain silent when Jaynes "sullenly" confronted ODST.

Chris, who left the "Trench Crusaders" (I-III) universe and chose to return to the "Halo" universe to conduct investigations, chose Jaynes to assist their agents, also because he valued Jaynes' "popularity".

But today, watching his subordinates die tragically one by one, the fleeting life made Jaynes feel as painful as being cut by a knife.

Without any hesitation, Jaynes immediately locked the muzzle of the gun on a huge and fat guy, and then pulled the trigger of the hard light rifle in his hand.

Accompanied by a sharp sound, the dense hard light beam flew out like a meteor, accurately hitting the target.

At the same time, many members of the ODST and special forces also focused on attacking the guys who posed the greatest threat to them.

Puff-Puff-Bang-! !

And they, who were subjected to the concentrated fire attack, immediately exploded from the inside out.

The corrupted liquid in the body splashed like a fountain, splashing onto the surrounding ground, filling the air with a strong stench.

But unexpectedly, the "little things" that also emerged from the surface did not retreat at all after seeing their companions explode, but instead became more excited and crazy.

Especially when they were covered by the corrosive liquid, their bodies began to shake violently, and joyful "laughter" came out of their throats, as if they were stimulated by something and became more active.

"Haha~!"

"Wow~~!"

Their voices became more and more crazy, forming a "stinky" wave again, approaching the front line where everyone was.

And the defensive pressure of everyone has reached the limit.

After all, there are only more than 300 people in total, but the heretics are "endless", not to mention that the ammunition they carry is about to run out.

However, none of them are afraid.

The worst thing is death.

Even if the enemy is a puppet of the Chaos Force, and their souls will also withstand the direct attack of the other party, their souls after death will still be blessed by the Emperor.

And these elite veterans who are loyal to the Empire and the Emperor have a great probability.

No, it should be said that they will definitely go to the paradise of the "One Three" universe.

They died bravely, their souls ascended to heaven, and their immediate family members will also receive compensation and protection from the Empire. What can they be afraid of?

Fortunately, just when everyone was about to lose the defense, the transport formation that entered the atmosphere in a conventional way had already arrived above the landing zone.

"Everyone, pay attention to the dangerous distance!"

At the same time, the pilot of the Silver Gull also shouted a warning on the communication channel.

Looking down from above, you can see that the ammunition bay is unfolded at the lower end of the wing of the Silver Gull.

Then a large number of air-to-ground missiles roared out, cutting through the sky, and rushed straight to the wave of heretics below.

Boom-boom--! !

The explosions rang out, and the deafening sound that was connected into one piece, accompanied by the shining flames, illuminated the entire battlefield, and the shock wave lifted, tore, and shattered those heretics.

Huh---!

The strong airflow made it almost impossible for everyone in the landing zone to maintain a stable body shape.

Immediately afterwards, the Luna transport boat with machine guns also suppressed the heretics with firepower, and landed in the landing zone one by one.

The moment the hatch opened, thousands of marines including Charlie and Narita, as well as agents led by Chris, immediately rushed out of the cabin to cover Jaynes and others to retreat and board the ship.

To be honest, most of the new recruits of the Marine Corps wanted to fight directly with the heretics in front of them.

But Charlie, who had been reminded by Narita long ago, felt the threat of death for the first time.

Even though he could not learn more about the subspace and the chaos forces with his authority, his intuition told him that the heretics in front of them were not something they could deal with.

It didn't take long for everyone to board the ship and evacuate successfully before the heretics reorganized their offensive.

And on the way back to Diana III, Chris also emphasized on the communication channel that all personnel must undergo a comprehensive inspection and isolation, and must stay in the Diana III ship until everything is confirmed to be correct and there are no hidden dangers.

When the transport formation left the atmosphere, the 4th Company Fleet of the Raven Guard also successfully completed the jump and reached the back-sun orbit of Queconto.

At the same time, on both sides and abdomen of the ships of this fleet, in addition to the legion emblem of the Raven Guard, there is also a company emblem in the shape of a "shark".
