Chapter 762 - The "fusion" of mutants and parasitic species
Whether it is a dazzling sight or a coincidence, the truth can only be revealed after the biological samples are collected.
It is really strange that the mutants that are rampant in Blue Star suddenly appear in Firmament Star.
According to the analysis of a generally recognized research report, the main reason for the emergence of mutants is the biological mutation disaster caused by residual nuclear radiation pollution after a nuclear weapon attack. Perhaps there are also restless individuals or organizations actively man-made. Induced, but there is no large-scale release of nuclear weapons on the Sky Star, and there has never even been a nuclear experiment. The radiation-contaminated environment that can induce mutations does not exist at all.
What's more, the ecological environment of the Firmament Star is not conducive to the survival of mutants. There are countless wild beasts and monsters that are more ferocious than mutants. Outsiders rush into the local food chain, and they are afraid that they can only deliver food. There is no way to continue to thrive.
"Warcraft? That's it!"
Balina didn't go into details. There was still a distance between the impact point and the location of the mercenaries. It was normal to encounter wild beasts and Warcraft in the deep mountains and forests.
She immediately ordered to remind everyone to be careful of predatory creatures lurking around.
There are currently two teams in operation. Chen Fei directly controls the intelligent combat machinery and takes the front line for the mercenaries. This was the plan from the beginning.
Intelligent combat machines are not afraid of casualties, so there is no need for mercenaries to act as cannon fodder. The latter's main job is to coordinate reconnaissance and consolidate the front to make up for the shortage of manpower.
A moment later, two more coordination ships bombarded the ground alternately, not only the 152mm heavy artillery, but also the ferocious Phalanx system.
More than a dozen creatures that looked like big white bats soared into the air from the dense forest. 30 mm caliber armor-piercing incendiary bombs immediately rushed towards them. A dense barrage swept past, and one big white bat after another The bat fell to the ground in pieces.
The "Dark Moon Snowbats" are ferocious monsters that live in groups. The combat robots probably disturbed them when they were searching the cave.
In fact, as long as the opponent does not initiate an attack, the airship combat cluster will not fire.
But once the fight starts, he will definitely be beaten to death.
In a short time, all these "Dark Moon Snow Bats" were completely dead. Their wind-based sound wave spells had no ability to resist the ferocious blows of firearms.
Just as the 30mm caliber twelve-tube magnetic track Phalanx system released a ferocious rain of bullets, a yellow tiger-striped deer-shaped monster with a single forked horn jumped flexibly and continuously, three He scurried up to the treetops more than 300 meters above the ground, looked up, and saw that the light of spell shields of different colors was still shrouded around him, slowly intertwining and rotating.
After carefully observing the airship combat cluster in the sky for a while, he turned around and disappeared into the canopy of the trees, disappearing without a trace.
The artificial intelligence AI "Adam" was instructed by Chen Fei to automatically distinguish between rational monsters and vicious monsters, and identified the deer-shaped monster with one horn. The "three-color one-horned deer" is the rational monster. , and were not treated as "Dark Moon Snowbats" to gather fire together.
On the topographic map of the AR visual interface, the red light spots representing the loss of the Mechanical Scorpion began to become denser.
The intelligent machines placed in the mountains and forests are real consumables, and death has no meaning to artificial intelligence AI.
The mechanical scorpion, which was only over a foot long, relied on its numbers to transmit a sufficient number of clear images before being destroyed one after another.
Deep in the mountain where the target is hiding, there are a large number of creatures suspected to be the mutant XR-0079, more than one in number. The "Headhunting Stag Beetle" itself is gregarious, so it is even more suspicious.
A line of words appeared in front of Chen Fei's eyes.
Adam: The biological sample test results confirmed that it is variant XR-0079, with the scientific name "Headhunting stag beetle".
Adam: Currently, the number of mutant XR-0079 “Headhunting Stag Beetles” has been confirmed to be 75.
It turns out to be...
Mutant + parasitic species, this combination is really giving people a headache.
I am afraid that the intelligence of the "Water Bear" organization will add new content. Colluding with the extraterrestrial alien "Sagali" was originally a crime worthy of death, but now it deserves to die without a burial place.
According to the information obtained from the Blue Star Global Joint Defense Committee, the "Water Bear" organization is related to the senior leaders of the Lin family, but it is not known how deep the relationship is.
The Sovereignty launched an attack on the Lin family without warning, and all members of the Lin family disappeared. The truth should not be as simple as it seems on the surface.
Unidentified gossip from various roadside societies revealed that the Lin family guards the sky of Blue Star, but it also becomes an obstacle for Blue Star forces to get involved in the sky of the sky. The Lin family bloodline will dominate the interests of the sky of the sky. , it will inevitably arouse covetousness.
After more than thirty years of peace, a new generation has replaced the old, and the rulers have changed. Blue Star's favor to the Lin family has almost come to an end.
Not long after the news report that the Lin family settlement was breached came out, there was no news in less than three days. Although there were divergent opinions among the people, there was no news in the media, and the heat was forcibly cooled down.
Sometimes, news suppression also implies an attitude.
Adam: Currently, the number of mutant XR-0079 "Headhunting Stag Beetles" has been confirmed to be 193.
As the Mechanical Scorpion went deeper and deeper, more mutant XR-0079 was discovered, and Chen Fei immediately activated the particle beam cannon of the collaboration ship.
This tactical-grade weapon is not only powerful, but also consumes a lot of energy. It is usually not used easily unless necessary.
Although the airship combat cluster is collectively equipped with "energy-gathering shells" that can continuously absorb elemental energy from the atmosphere and transform it into energy forms, replenishing crystal energy is not always an easy task.
Every attack would consume a huge amount of money, so Chen Fei could not attack frequently to quickly annihilate the parasitic species on the hunting list.
The blue-white beams of light falling from the sky penetrated the mountain easily, penetrating the inner cave like a broken bamboo, causing a partial collapse that blocked the escape route of the mutants. A large number of combat robots immediately rushed in, and various firearms were continuously thrown in. The ground shook slightly, as if a minor earthquake had occurred.
XR-0079 "Headhunting stag beetle" is a brood-type mutant. As long as the mother body and egg-nurturing area are eliminated, the battle will be completed. Even if there are a few fish that slip through the net, they will naturally disappear soon. die.
Following the passage explored by the mechanical scorpion group, the combat robots controlled by the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" were like a real army. The mutant XR-0079 "Headhunter Spade Armor" was killed. The armor was discarded, the arms and limbs were broken into pieces, and the joints, limbs, chest and abdomen covered with thick carapace were completely unable to withstand the penetrating fire of rail weapons. If the warhead carried an explosive warhead, it could easily cause fatal damage. .
When the mercenaries arrived at the cave entrances, the fighting inside the mountain in the combat area had ended.
The Holy Sun of Flame gradually set below the horizon, and the mechanical scorpions and combat robots turned over the cracks in the cave with a radius of ten miles.
Adam: The search mission was completed and no parasitic species was found.
In addition to 113 large beasts, 3298 small and medium-sized beasts, 41 Warcraft, 241 XR-0079 "Headhunting Spade Beetles", and countless various insects, no trace of parasitic species has ever been found.
"There is no parasitic species?"
This result made Chen Fei begin to doubt the royal species "Tower" that was parasitic in the body of the warcraft "Mist Nightmare" in the rebel southern theater headquarters. Ga".
Could it be that this hunting list is mixed between true and false? In the first attack, a blind cat happened to kill a mouse and hit the target. Now, in the second attack, the target is actually a fake.
What’s the point of creating such a trap? Chen Fei couldn't understand!
He immediately called the Southern Theater Command and told the other party through Commander-in-Chief Bartona that he had made a mistake and at the same time concealed the existence of the mutant.
But "Taga" swore that the list he gave was absolutely true, and the update date was only one month ago, ensuring that those of the same race are on the list.
This made Chen Fei feel even more confused. To be honest, he had never engaged in strategic planning, and the fake list would not be of much use. Even if he went there in vain, he would not be used to kill someone with a borrowed knife. .
Is it okay to kill "Zachali", but accidentally kill other intelligent races?
Chen Fei is not stupid!
There are already ready-made reconnaissance methods that can accurately identify whether they have been parasitized. In any case, they will not casually attack intelligent races that have not been parasitized.
Chen Xiaoer's shortcoming lies there. Occasionally he has weak hands, but he is not inferior. After all, there is an essential difference between the two.
While reviewing and pondering "Taga's" reply, he continued to look through the photos and videos sent back by the mechanical scorpion group, and finally fixed his eyes on a certain video.
"'Adam', get the sample in this video, it should be feces."
In the frozen scene, among the pile of filth, white bones can be vaguely seen, which seem to be the remains that have not been fully digested.
The exposed part is very much like a skull, not big, only about the size of a fist, like the skull of an infant.
In this primitive mountain forest, it should not be common for mutants to capture infants and young children of humans or humanoid creatures.
No matter which race, based on biological instinct, larvae tend to be best protected.
There is also a creature that is similar to the larvae of humans and humanoids, so the sudden discovery of small skeletons and nearby bone fragments immediately became suspicious.
Near the scene, several mechanical scorpions returned to the scene with their claws and fangs spread out. They stretched out their large scissors and collected more than ten kilograms of... shit.
Looking at its dry surface, it must have been there for some time.
But the detection equipment on the spaceship didn't care about this. It just "ate" a pound, and then "ate" several more pounds, breaking down the dozen pounds of poop brought back into thousands of tiny ones. Check inside the container.
Half an hour later, the results came quickly.
Chen Fei guessed right. The small skeleton with only one third left and a dozen bone fragments was indeed a parasitic species.
It seems that the truth is revealed. The parasitic species has indeed "merged" with the mutant, but it is a special form of "merging". (End of this chapter)
