Chapter 132 Embracing the Sun
The anti-ship assault module is the most popular vehicle in the eyes of most players, tied with the airborne pod.
This seemingly simple and crude method of forcibly delivering Marines to the target ship is actually not that simple.
It is also extremely versatile. In addition to being used on target ships, it also has a very good force projection effect on space ports, asteroid bases, battle fortresses and other facilities.
What Amber and his crew are using on this ship is the AT22 hot-melt cutting assault module that they 'bought' from Ellenita's private ship storage port together with this long-decommissioned Imperial frigate. .
It is also a piece of equipment that has been retired from the imperial battle sequence, but is now widely used by noble private soldiers, PMCs, and pirates.
According to the results of Ellenita's query in the Seal Port database, this Penitence-class frigate and these four AT22 assault cabins were all used by business partners to pay off debts.
This assault cabin uses a twin-mounted hot-melt cutter at the front end to cut the hull armor plate to complete the jump. It can carry 9 marines equipped with exoskeletons at a time.
Amber’s subordinates, including communications and electronic warfare technicians, only have 16 people who can complete infantry combat subjects, so Amber only took away two assault pods in the end.
Although Amber didn't know what kind of business partner would use frigates and assault cabins to pay off debts, in any case, finding these things still helped a lot in today's battle.
Through Isabel's 'Face Fruit', Amber shamelessly borrowed a frigate and two assault cabins from the female elf. She also found a space dock that could prepare imperial ships in the Yuge family's industry.
Of course, it is impossible to get so much ‘sponsorship’ solely by relying on Isabel’s face.
The most important thing is that Amber proposed to use this action to show Ellenita the comprehensive strength of the team, which can also be regarded as a 'corporate culture display' before soliciting investment.
If you finally impress investors, then everything will be easy.
But if investors are not secured or they are not interested, Amber will have to find other ways to repay the cost of this operation.
"Mr. Amber, to be honest, I'm quite curious about how you will repay if you can't impress me as an investor?"
Thinking of these meaningful words said by Ellenita before departure. , Amber opened the team communication channel:
"Everyone, please tighten up! Especially the Marines! If anyone dares to mess with me, you will know the consequences"
< br>While Amber was speaking, the melt cutters at the front ends of the two assault cabins began to glow red, indicating that they had entered the final stage of penetration.
“Boom!”
"Boom!"
As Amber was fixed above the yacht, she felt two waves of shaking coming from the soles of her feet, and after the sound was transmitted through solid objects, it was like two loud noises heard underwater.
The two assault cabins crashed into the passage in the middle of the yacht and the crew cabin in the rear half.
For the hot-melt cutter used to deal with the laminated armor plates of battleships, although the external armor of this private yacht, which is mainly comfortable and luxurious, is considered strong, it is still a bit uninteresting. .
The Trident Marines who were gathering in the crew cabin were thrown flying all over the sky by the huge kinetic energy caused by the impact of the assault cabin.
Before the mercenaries could react to the impact, the small ring-shaped hatch at the front of the assault cabin was bounced off.
Then, a round of shrapnel crackled like a firecracker.
Not only did it instantly smash the crew cabin like a sieve, but it also directly eliminated nearly 70% of the Trident mercenaries.
The mercenaries who were lucky enough to survive without being beaten into rags saw that the front end of the assault cabin was finally fully opened.
Then two tough men wearing exoskeletons and holding large shields rushed out.
Since this battle is simply about jumping gangs rather than seizing ships, there is no need to consider the damage caused to ships during the battle.
So the Marines who participated in the gang jumping were equipped with standard long-range weapons.
These marines who hid most of their bodies behind the shield-wielding man kept firing, and it took almost no time to knock down all the Trident mercenaries hired by Baron Adam at a high price.
The reason for such a one-sided situation is not the gap in combat capabilities between the two sides.
To be fair, the mercenaries of Trident are also a bunch of characters who lick blood to make a living.
And like most mercenaries in the world, most of them have experience in serving.
If we really want to fight openly and openly, Amber's 'former mobile infantry' can't take much advantage.
However, due to the suddenness of the ambush and Amber's decision to use the crew cabin as one of the escape points, these mercenaries did not even have time to find cover before being blown up by anti-personnel shrapnel from the assault cabin. Got seven, seven or eight.
Soon, the Marines completed the suppression of the crew compartment. When they kept Amber's teachings in mind, they fired at the mercenaries on the ground who couldn't tell whether they were wounded or corpses.
Another team of Marines who hit the middle channel of the yacht also heard on the communication channel, ‘The suppression of the middle channel has been completed! ’ news.
The two teams immediately rushed towards the bridge according to the battle plan.
One of the teams also checked Baron Adam's master bedroom along the way. After finding no trace of the target, they also confirmed that the fat man had escaped to the bridge.
The next battle needs no introduction.
Even if they hold weapons, the crew members on the bridge wearing only spacesuits cannot resist the attack of the Marines.
When the Marine responsible for capturing the target saw Adam's huge figure, he immediately raised his right hand and fired a net bomb from the multi-function launcher mounted under his arm.
The carbon fiber cable net bomb with electric shock effect immediately knocked down Baron Adam and tightened it to complete the package.
"Team Megalodon reported that the package has been obtained!"
After hearing the news from the communication channel, Amber in the Fanatic's cockpit was relieved.
"Received, seize the time to clean the battlefield and prepare to evacuate."
"Remember to take away the core of the shipboard control personality on the bridge, this thing is very valuable."
"By the way, there are also those decorations in the master bedroom, right, right, the one on your right, take them together!"
With the help of the lenses on the Marines' tactical visors, Amber is very skilled He guided them to quickly search the yacht.
Just as everyone was preparing to retreat, a Marine reported on the communication channel:
“Call the ghost, there are still some survivors on the cruise ship, what should we do with them?”
The communication channel became quiet, and it took a long time before Amber's reply came.
"Leave no one behind. Be quick and give them a good time."
"Warning, the temperature is too high"
When Baron Adam regained consciousness due to the alarm of the spacesuit, he found that he He was held firmly in the hand of an HCP.
At this time, this HCP is standing on the external armor of a frigate.
In front of him, there is a huge 'fireball' that almost completely occupies his field of vision - it is the sun of the Haven galaxy.
Although the helmet of the space suit has detected excessive light intensity, it has dimmed the helmet mask of the space suit to reduce the amount of light entering.
But Baron Adam was still blinded by the dazzling sunlight.
He judged that his current location should be relatively close to the star.
Because under direct light radiation, even if the thermostat system of the space suit is operating at full strength, Baron Adam feels that the temperature has been rising, so much so that the space suit issues a warning that the temperature is too high.
Looking up at the silver-white steel giant in front of him, through the appearance of the HCP, he recognized it as an Imperial Zealot.
"So you, these imperial bastards, are going to kill me in the end? Why can't you just do it earlier? Why don't you pretend to give me a noble title and a private yacht?"
The Empire. ? You may have made something wrong." The voice coming through the contact communication sounded familiar to Adam.
Before he could recall it in his mind, he saw this The fanatic opened the cockpit door on his chest.
“Commander Adam is really a noble man and forgets things. ”
The huge mechanical arm lifted Adam to the cabin door. The pilot inside clicked on the helmet, and then the originally opaque helmet mask revealed the face inside.
"Amber hum, you guy didn't disappear with Robert No. 4."
At this time, Adam was extremely regretful. He regretted that he didn't listen to Robert No. 4. Tie Zhen's suggestion killed this little pawn who was causing trouble, which led to things developing to this point.
"I'm deeply sorry for the disappointment you feel~" The mockery in Amber's words almost overflowed.
“From the tone of your voice, it seems that you have also killed the tail needle?”
"Of course."
"Oh, I didn't expect the final outcome to be like this. I accept that I fell into your hands, and I don't beg for mercy or beg you to let me go. I know that It's impossible"
Adam sighed, and the expression on his face became calmer at this time.
“Give me a pleasure.”
“Hahaha, give you a pleasure? Then you may be overthinking it. If I wanted to give you a pleasure, I wouldn’t treat you in such a big way. Get it here.”
Amber turned Adam to face the sun. This star that was constantly emitting light radiation had already made the newly minted Baron feel sweat on his forehead - this was a sign that the constant temperature system had reached its limit.
"I thought about it for a long time and decided to give you a very romantic death."
Amber closed the cockpit, reactivated the follow-up control system, and then made a throwing posture.
“Go embrace the sun, Commander Adam.”
“No, no, no! You can’t be so cruel!”
Commander Adam immediately became hysterical as he thought about what was about to happen.
"No! Amber! Please, give me a good time!"
"Bye~"
The energy released by the subcritical reactor passes through the thermoelectric exchange device It is converted into electromagnetic force, and finally drives the electromagnetic muscle bundle to drive the mechanical arm to throw it out hard.
HCP's arm strength is very strong, so even throwing stones is extremely lethal.
The communication module on the spacesuit worn by Adam has been removed by Amber.
After being thrown into the sun, he will become the loneliest person in the universe.
Then at higher and higher temperatures, watching the space suit's oxygen storage become lower and lower, and finally suffocating with despair.
"Hey, even an artificial intelligence is scary to me. How perverted Master do you have to be to come up with such a torture method."
But Amber did not answer Lilith's words. , he looked at Adam who was struggling like a bastard in the distance, and said to himself:
"Lieutenant Colonel, I have fulfilled your request"
Federation, Capital Galaxy, Artificial Intelligence Research Center.
Dr. Mephisto, sitting in the office, looked a little dull and unbelievable.
On the virtual screen in front of him, the news about the Battle of Robert Galaxy has occupied the front pages of major media.
“It has just been confirmed that under the attack of the Federation Navy fleet, the Earth-like planet Robert IV located in the Robert system in the border zone has disintegrated. This attack wiped out a large number of Star Dragon Empire invading forces on the planet in one fell swoop. .”
"The Imperial Army's invasion was thwarted and suffered heavy losses!"
"The federal army's strong man had his arm broken, and it was so sad!"
"As you can see in the picture, a large number of citizens have gathered in the Capital's Freedom Square. They came spontaneously with flowers in hand to commemorate the federal soldiers who bravely fought against the enemy on Planet Robert IV and finally died."
"Dong Dong Dong"
A knock on the door pulled me back. Mephisto's attention.
He looked up at the door of his office and saw Secretary of Defense Miller standing there.
"Doctor, is it convenient for me to come in?"
"Miller, you actually dare to come here!"
Mo, who is usually gentle and full of academic research atmosphere Dr. Fisto, at this point, was acting like an angry old lion.
He stood up suddenly and walked quickly towards Miller on crutches.
"Why attack Robert Four! Do you know?"
"Of course I know."
Miller calmly interrupted Mephisto's words. As the Minister of Defense, he Although he has been fighting in the political arena all year round, in the eyes of hard-blooded soldiers like Marshal Trafalgar, he is considered a "little boy" scholar.
But for ordinary people, he has a calm and self-defeating temperament.
In this regard, Minister Miller can easily suppress Mephisto, who stays in the institute every day and lacks social interaction.
"If I hadn't been helping you cover up those little tricks you did on Robert 4, do you think you would have been able to avoid being discovered with your wooden fish head that stays in the research institute every day?"
" You"
Just as Dr. Mephisto was about to speak, he was interrupted again by Minister Miller.
"Although the Creator Project has been cancelled, its phased result 'Project 02', the 'Lilith' in your mouth, still has extremely high research value.
This is why I will help you cover up the fact that you did not destroy Lilith.
Because I also think it would be a pity to destroy it directly. I may consider continuing to study it if I have the opportunity in the future. "
Minister Miller walked to a chair in the office and sat down, and continued:
"However, this does not mean that I would like to see it fall into the hands of the enemy. Risks arise.
That’s why I asked Marshal Trafalgar to choose to attack Robert 4, otherwise with this old guy’s style, he will definitely choose to attack the star to create a black hole.”
M What Minister Le said came to Dr. Mephisto's ears word by word, and it also calmed him down.
Reason told him that there was nothing wrong with the defense minister's decision.
As the creator of Lilith, Dr. Mephisto naturally knows what the consequences will be if Lilith falls into the hands of the Star Dragon Empire.
The well-thought-out doctor exhaled a breath of turbidity, and his whole body became visibly weak.
"You came to me today specifically not just to talk about this matter."
"Doctor, you are still as sharp as ever." Minister Miller smiled,
"Actually, the main reason I came here today was to confirm whether the 'autonomous combat fleet dominated by shipboard control personality' - the so-called 'unmanned fleet' - can be considered for actual combat testing?"
