Chapter 222: Artillery Bombardment! Landing Assault! Cleanup!
Under Morgan Blackhand's command, the carrier-based aircraft group that left the cabin attacked the Reaper mothership like a swarm of bees.
The combat pilots used a large number of metal hydrogen bombs and various laser cannon devices to launch intensive close-air attacks on the enemy mothership.
But followed by the counterattack launched by the Reaper mothership.
Immediately, countless energy cannons were quickly fired from the close-in defense devices, and various small fighters that also left the cabin also attacked the giant company's aircraft group.
The carrier-based aircraft of both sides had a fierce confrontation in front of their respective fleets.

At this moment, the entire battlefield situation entered a white-hot state of anxiety.
Because the carrier-based aircraft groups of both sides, whether in terms of quantity or combat effectiveness, are actually very similar.
Basically, as long as you hit the enemy's body, you can destroy it, but the surface of the Universal Enterprise's fighter group is protected by an antimatter shield.
The Reaper's group has no protective measures.
Therefore, in this round of shooting, the Universal Enterprise's group has a higher survival rate.
But the Reaper mothership's spare group must be more than the Enterprise's fleet, but not all of them are sent out at once.
When the Queen of the Reaper saw that the Enterprise's carrier-based aircraft group could not be taken down for a while, she immediately sent out more fighters.
At this time, some bombers that had run out of ammunition began to withdraw to the giant ship in an orderly manner, and used speed and agility to get rid of the Reaper's group.
The main fleet of the Enterprise was fighting fiercely with the Reaper mothership, and V's assault ship had quietly touched the enemy mothership.
At this moment, the electromagnetic acceleration guns of the two Infinity-class giant ships and cruisers provided a dense and powerful anti-aircraft barrage network for the returning group.
The Reaper fleets that tried to approach the giant ship and try to chase the flapping-wing aircraft and scorpion fighters were like mosquitoes landing on an electric grid.
Crackling explosions flashed up, followed by aircraft destruction and death!
The main forces of the fleets of both sides also mobilized each other's main guns and secondary guns to continuously bombard each other's ships.
But the mothership of the Reaper civilization had long lost the protection of the protective energy shield, and the entire ship was completely exposed to the bombardment of the ship's guns of the Universe Giant Enterprise.
The hull of each ship of the Giant Enterprise was covered with a layer of sustainable antimatter shield, and the mothership of the Reaper could not cause any damage to the Infinity at all.
It can be said that the Reapers have been beaten up in this interstellar naval battle so far, and the Universe Giant Enterprise has hardly suffered any major losses.
That is, dozens of AI drones crashed, and this loss is completely insignificant!
In the command center of the Infinity-class flagship.
"19% damage has been caused to the enemy's ship structure, and our ship structure is still intact!"
"Report to headquarters, our carrier-based aircraft squadron has damaged 96 drones, and there are no pilot casualties."
"..."
Captain Morgan Blackhand, who listened to the real-time report, did not say anything, but nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to focus on the holographic screen.
From the beginning of the battle to now, it was actually within his expectations that the Universal Corporation could achieve such an excellent battle-to-loss ratio.
After all, they had prepared for this interstellar war for two and a half years in advance, and they ambushed a wave of Reaper motherships halfway through.
When the strength and firepower output of the starships of both sides are similar, whoever attacks first will have a greater chance of winning.
This is just like the ADC with the same six-piece equipment, whoever starts with a flat attack to deal a period of damage is more likely to win the duel.
In the case of launching a sneak attack first, if the opponent still suffers heavy losses, it would be too embarrassing!
When he saw that the fleet of the giant enterprise had reached the designated target area, Morgan Blackhand calmly issued a new order and said:
"Now start to change the angle and prepare to aim at the damaged area of the target. Continue to expand their damaged area and tear open their holes."
"Also, notify the assault team, it's time to get down to business!"
...
At this moment, the assault boat carrying the Astartes warriors!
At this moment, V, who had received the order from Morgan, also began to make the final mobilization to the people in front of him.
"Attention all combatants, we must complete the airborne landing within 10 minutes, please prepare the assault equipment."
"In addition, the airborne tool we use this time is the propulsion device of the anti-Hulk armor."
"In order to ensure that everyone can complete the landing according to the established plan, please check your armor starter in time."
"If the starter fails and the anti-Hulk armor cannot be automatically equipped, call the headquarters in time to equip another set!"
"Finally..."
"Good luck to everyone, and the world giant enterprise will prosper!"
After hearing the reminder and voice of the action captain V on the all channels, the Astartes warriors, including David Martinez, immediately became 100% spirited.
This is a great time for them to make achievements. After the battle, everyone will be bathed in the glory of the regiment!
At this time, a slightly higher heart rate display appeared on everyone's helmet screen, which showed that the soldiers who were about to take action were extremely excited.
Speaking of which, these young Astartes warriors have actually participated in no less battles than V, Jack and other veterans.
Many of them have landed on Pandora, fought against unpredictable Netherworld soldiers, and bombarded huge Kaiju beasts.
He even participated in the raid to capture Omega!
It can also be said that he has experienced hundreds of battles!
The mission they are about to perform this time is a "gang-hopping" operation similar to traditional naval battles.
Next, this group of Astartes warriors will rely on the propeller of the Hulkbuster device to complete the internal landing through the gap on the Reaper mothership.
This group of young Astartes warriors have actually been accustomed to such a conventional tactical plan for a long time, and are well versed in various coordinated attacks.
Boom——!
At this moment, the assault boat began to adjust its direction, and the surrounding Scorpion fighter planes, in order to cover V and others from completing the gang-hopping operation, were also frantically covering them.
When they felt the violent shock from the enemy's artillery, many Astartes warriors felt that the blood in their bodies had begun to boil!
"Ha! It's a pity that Chief Wells isn't here, otherwise he would be so excited that he would start cursing."
David smiled and said that after working with Jack Wills for so long, he had somewhat acquired some of Jack's carefree language style.
Seeing that the morale and condition of the soldiers were maintained well and their emotions were unusually high, V nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Everyone, remember the mission goal of our trip, don't just kill the boss."
"We have to create chaos as much as possible in the Reaper mothership, cover the engineers of the scientific research department, and take the enemy mothership command center as our own."
"There may be a lot of bugs in there, maybe billions of them, but no matter how many bugs there are, they can't do anything to us!"
"Next, I want you to follow me, complete this assault mission, win, and then go back to receive the reward."
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers responded immediately.
"yes!!"
"Very good, it seems you are one step closer to the second Primaris warrior."
While V smiled and encouraged the soldiers, the holographic screen on the helmet screen showed that the assault boat had completed its turn and was about to arrive at the designated area.
"Be prepared!"
After finishing his words, V turned his head, looked at the direction ahead, then headed towards the remaining gap of the Reaper mothership, and jumped out with a bang.
Immediately afterwards, he activated the Hulkbuster armor device. Almost instantly, the functional modules from the Veronica system quickly built a propulsion device on V.
Driven by the powerful nuclear fusion device, V is speeding straight towards the Reaper's mothership at an extremely fast speed.
This clear and strong pushing sensation made V feel like a flying superman, freely galloping through the universe.
Through the visual sharing of the helmet screen, V can see that he is getting closer and closer to the giant gap blasted by the Infinity-class main cannon!
Of course, it was not just V, but the entire Astartes Commando team, propelled by the Hulk-busting device, flew towards the Reaper mothership.
In order to protect the safe landing of these flying Astartes warriors, nearby AI drones and fighter jet formations withstood most of the close-air artillery strikes for them.
The Reapers were not blind, so how could they not see that a large number of Astartes warriors were heading towards their mothership.
At this moment, a death barrage composed of close-range anti-cannons flew out like dense lice. This was to shoot down the soldiers who were performing gang-hopping missions!
Fortunately, the propulsion device of the Astartes warriors can adjust their flight direction by themselves, and the holographic screen also has corresponding warning images, which can help them avoid bombardment in advance.
In addition, AI drones assisted in the bombardment, destroying the energy cannon fired by the enemy in advance, so these soldiers were not shot down by the close-range defense artillery.
Seeing the UFO in front of them getting closer and closer to their mothership, the Reapers who were responsible for controlling the close-range defense guns felt deep despair in their hearts.
They once wondered whether the mothership's super-light navigation system guided them to other galaxies.
This is completely different from the human civilization in their impression!
…
…
At this moment, the interior space of the Reaper mothership.
The layout here is quite spacious and orderly, with skyscraper-like tower buildings standing inside the mothership.
On the deck there are various types of soil suitable for harvesters to survive, as well as lakes, dense forests, and various plants and animals.
These complete ecological cycle systems are not so much that the interior of the Reaper mothership is a ship, but rather a small planet built inside!
call--! !
Due to the large gap created by the endless electromagnetic accelerator cannon and laser cannon, the air in the area is rapidly losing and causing an air pressure imbalance.
At the edge of the dense forest, a group of reaper "soldier ants" wearing exoskeleton-like devices gathered urgently. They were armed with energy guns and were on alert.
Obviously, they had not expected before that the human fleet could actually break the mothership's shield.
The Reaper Queen, who was in charge of controlling the mothership, was thrown into confusion by this unexpected turn of events.
Because according to its original action plan, this Reaper mothership should have arrived smoothly over the Earth, and then sent out city destroyers to disintegrate the human combat force.
Then a large number of soldier ants and restarted the mimic army quickly swept, occupied, and enslaved the humans on Earth!
But the actual situation now is that the Reaper mothership was blasted with a big hole by the human fleet, and this hole is still expanding.
There is also a group of human soldiers who have safely passed through the layers of close-in defense guns and entered this area!
It should have been a great start, but now it has been counterattacked by human civilization like this, and even made human soldiers complete a humiliating boarding operation.
How can the Reaper Queen bear this!
So the Queen immediately dispatched a large number of soldier ants and worker ants to repair the holes, preparing to repair the broken gaps on the mothership.
At this time, a large number of Astartes warriors appeared above the gap, and they had successfully arrived at the combat area.
"Hiss--!"
Seeing this, the soldier ants below hurriedly raised their guns and fired, but before the energy bombs hit the Astartes warriors, they stopped flying and fell to the ground.
Bang! !
In an instant, every soldier fell to the ground like a meteor, landing on the enemy's mothership.
Along with it, there was also the tragic scene of the harvester soldier ants being smashed on the spot by countless "tin cans" and crushed into blood mud.
This "Titan Falls"-like appearance is the most common landing posture for Astartes warriors.
After all, just by appearing on the stage, they can rely on their own weight to crush a group of soldier ants underground!
Bang! Bang--!
The Astartes warriors who had completed the boarding state raised their grenade launchers without saying anything, and smashed the soldier ants in front of them into pieces one by one.
"The gadgets in their hands are toy guns for spraying water. They are really useless."
"Hurry up and kill these disgusting bugs. Seeing them is like seeing cockroaches in the toilet!"
"Get rid of them as soon as possible."
The voices of David and others were heard from time to time in the communication voice of the Astartes Commando.
After completing the initial landing mission, the Astartes warriors immediately formed an indestructible fire network defense line on the spot.
This is to cover the subsequent airborne troops and the engineering corps of the scientific research department.
Thanks to the auxiliary vision provided by the MarkX power armor and various shooting assistance systems, the bolt guns in the hands of the Astartes warriors are spitting out deadly dazzling flames.
Faced with this terrifying assault force, the soldier ants who had just arrived in the combat area collapsed and retreated almost instantly.
This enabled V's assault troops to successfully clear the area around and completely consolidate the first line of the battlefield on the boarding front.
After dealing with the nearby Harvester Soldier Ants, V immediately led the team to launch a new round of attacks on the giant building within sight.
