Chapter 145 148; Externally Attached Armored Forces (6,000 words. I forgot to post it yesterday. I will add it today)

"Strong attack!" Hank felt a little scared when he saw the other party using a weapon he had never seen before.

Darling, if I were shot, I might die on the spot.

The mercenaries who heard Hank's order didn't hesitate and started taking action. Don't they understand the degree of danger here? No, they all understand that it is really because the S1 club gives too much money, and people die for money and birds die for food. This is human nature and cannot be changed.

Smoke bombs were thrown towards the manor one after another. In an instant, the entire manor was filled with white mist. At the same time, more than thirty mercenaries entered the manor using various methods.

But what they didn't notice was that with the help of the thick white smoke of smoke bombs, black figures were hiding in corners where they couldn't easily notice, glaring at them with cold eyes.

Their eyes seemed to be looking at the moving dead people, coldly and without any emotion.

The mercenaries felt something was wrong after entering the manor. The only resistance in the manor was a shot fired by an unknown weapon. From the time they entered to the end, there was no gunshot. , and no one was attacked again.

The mercenaries were a little nervous at first, but when they were surrounded by teammates, most of their inner nervousness disappeared.

Hank frowned and looked at the white mist-filled manor in front of him. At first, he could spot the people inside through the infrared telescope, but as time went by, Hank was surprised to find that the heat source representing the human body on the infrared telescope was constantly changing. Faint, until it finally disappears.

"The hunter's cabin is calling the hunter squadron. The hunter's cabin is calling the hunter squadron. I've lost your heat source here. How is the situation over there? It's over." Hank called the mercenaries who entered the manor through the communication channel.

“Hunter 1 reported that it’s strange here, we didn’t find any enemies, no resistance.

Also, the normal dissipation time of the smoke bomb we used is two minutes, but now the smoke concentration has not weakened at all. complete. "

Hearing Hunter 1's reply, Hank couldn't help but frown. His fingers subconsciously tapped the weapon in his hand. This was a subconscious action he would make when thinking.

Hank's mind was racing wildly; how about withdrawing them first? no! Retreating without fighting is a taboo for military strategists, and the morale of the soldiers will be greatly affected.

Why is the opponent's approach so wild, and they don't play according to common sense? How come it turns into a supernatural channel?

How about a direct attack? Breaking all laws with one force?

Or maybe...

"Hunter's cabin, hunter's cabin! We suddenly lost a lot of brothers here. They all disappeared inexplicably. Now we can't contact you at all. Please support! Please support!"

Hank's thoughts were interrupted by the sudden panic call. He frowned and looked into the manor filled with white mist. He still couldn't see anything. The white mist was getting bigger and bigger, and the main body of the manor that was originally visible was still visible. The building was now completely invisible to Hank.

"Send five drones to go in and take a look." Hank gave the order to his men after thinking for a moment.

It is already inappropriate to send people in at this time. There is something strange in this manor. There is no difference between sending people in and asking them to die. Drones are the best choice, and the airflow caused by the propellers of drones should be It can affect this white mist to a certain extent.

A group of drones were fighting in the sky. Five drones suddenly flew out independently and flew towards the manor. Another larger group of drones did not seem to notice the five drones that suddenly broke away from the battle. Like a drone, there was no reaction at all, and it was still fighting with the opponent's drone group.

The speed of the drone was very fast, and it plunged into the white mist almost five seconds after leaving the battle.

But just like dropping a pebble on the water, the white mist was just blown into a vortex by the propeller of the drone and then showed no reaction.

Hank's brows frowned even more tightly, and the word "Sichuan" appeared on his brows. He turned to the adjutant beside him and asked, "What's going on with the drone now?"

At this time, the man shook his head. The screen in front of him was completely black. The original drone could still send back the picture, but after entering the white fog, the connection was completely lost and the screen turned black.

Hank frowned and kept thinking about the reason.

Time passed so quickly, and suddenly, a holographic projection appeared in front of Hank, and a man wearing a mask and sunglasses appeared in front of Hank.

"Hank, how long will it take you there?"

Hank was about to explain, but when he looked at the person projected by the holographic projection in front of him, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he understood something.

Ignoring the guy who asked him about the situation, Hank directly called his men and said quickly: "Prepare the individual artillery, switch to EMP ammunition, target the manor in front, fire freely!"

Hank already knew it by heart. He had roughly guessed that the white fog should be a giant holographic projection. That thing was usually used for performances and was not commonly used, but it was not impossible.

And judging from the situation at the scene, the white mist should be the holographic projection created by the people in the manor.

Moreover, by doing this, I did not violate the requirements of the S1 Club. There should be some very valuable items or things in there, so I was required not to damage the main structure of the manor.

So there’s nothing wrong with using EMP ammunition yourself? At most, this thing can only make a hole in the wall or break some glass, but it will not damage the theme structure of the manor.

But when Hank assigned the task, he didn't hide from the person on the holographic projection, and all of Hank's words fell into his ears verbatim.

Hank doesn't know what's in it, doesn't he? There is a server with strong artificial intelligence inside. This thing is very valuable. How dare you use EMP to explode it?

"Hank! Stop, there are things that are particularly important to us inside, and EMP ammunition cannot be used." The person in the projection quickly stopped Hank. At this time, he no longer cared whether Hank would be suspicious.

Hank impatiently stopped the soldiers who were about to convey Hank's order, and turned back to look at the holographic projection, wanting to see what the boss wanted to do.

"Hank, listen, what's inside is an electronic device that's particularly important to us.

What you have to do is to clean out all the enemies inside and ensure the safety of the main body of the manor at all costs, especially without using any EMP weapons. "

"But now there is a large holographic projection outside this damn manor. We can't attack at all without destroying those damn holographic projections with EMP!" Hank roared at the people in the holographic projection with some annoyance.

"Hank, listen.

Now calm down, we believe you, and you are capable of doing this, right?

Well, as long as you complete the task, we can add 30% commission.

Wait a moment...Okay, now the money has been transferred to the platform, you can check it. "

Hank;? ? ?

Your method of throwing money at every disagreement...well, I like it.

Hank put down his communicator and saw that the bounty on it had indeed increased by 30%. He said in a serious tone, "Okay boss."

…

The stone square in the manor is now filled with corpses. Most of these people were shot to death in places where they were not protected by body armor. A few of them had their necks broken. Now they are falling weakly to the ground. , the bright red blood spread under these corpses, forming small blood slopes.

"Change positions." Zhong Nan's voice sounded in the team's communication channel, and at the same time, the specific information and tasks for the next position also appeared on the team members' visors.

In an instant, the dark shadows that were hiding in some unnoticeable corners quickly rushed out and entered the main building of the manor at an extremely fast speed, and then disappeared without a sound.

Hank's mind was really fast. He used the S1 Club's supercomputer to define the white fog outside the manor as a holographic projection, and let the supercomputer estimate the location of the holographic projector.

Don't tell me, this method is really useful. The supercomputer has really calculated the approximate location of the holographic projector. Now some mercenaries are dismantling that thing.

After a while, the white mist that shrouded the entire manor disappeared, but the scene that appeared in front of Hank and other mercenaries was something they would never forget.

More than thirty mercenaries from the Hunter Squadron were lying scattered on the ground, their faces were horrified, their bodies were motionless, and they were obviously dead.

The center of the manor's stone slabs has now gathered into a small blood slope, and the blood of many dead mercenaries is flowing there.

The scene looked like the scene of some mysterious ritual. The small blood slope looked so weird and oozing, as if a demon would rush out of nowhere at the next moment.

Hank sneered slightly and wanted to pretend to be a ghost again. This is a materialistic world that brings such monsters and monsters.

"Send two four-legged mechas up!" Hank waved his hand and ordered his men. In fact, Hank also began to worry that the other party had some weird gadgets that he hadn't used. After all, they could use expensive gadgets like large holographic projections. Once it comes out, it is possible to cause any trouble.

The two four-legged mechas took heavy steps, making a dull sound when each leg landed, full of momentum.

Then the two four-legged mechas walked in tandem and walked in through the main entrance.

There is no way, Party A's father gave too much money, and strictly requested that the manor, including the wall, should not be damaged.

The two four-legged mechas were not attacked after entering the manor, and there was no trouble in the manor. However, these two machines did not dare to attack the main structure of the manor, and the curtains behind the glass outside the manor were closed. , the four-legged mecha couldn't see anything and could only stare.

"Two and three hunter squadrons, prepare to attack with the help of the cover of the four-legged mecha!" Hank saw that there was no movement after the two four-legged mechas entered, so he simply left the two mechas where they were, Hachijou The extremely thick mechanical legs can be regarded as a good cover. Even if one of your own people enters, you can still have a place to hide.

Seeing two six-meter-tall four-legged mechas standing on the manor, the mercenaries of the second and third hunter squadrons felt a little at ease, and they had no rebellious mood towards Hank's command.

This operation went extremely smoothly. The two squadrons quickly entered the manor without causing any trouble.

"Check the surroundings, don't let go of any trace." Hank felt that it was impossible for his opponent to just create a holographic projection and then give up. There must be something else in this manor.

According to Hank's instructions, half of the mercenaries were left on guard, and the other half quickly began to inspect the inside of the manor with the equipment they had. However, strangely, except for the large holographic projection that had been dismantled, They found nothing. It was just like an ordinary manor hall, very normal.

After receiving the report from his subordinates, Hank frowned and fell into thought again.

I was really frustrated by this employment mission. I was obviously many times stronger than the enemy, but I was subject to too many restrictions. I felt like I was suffocating and very uncomfortable.

"Jimmy, you can lead a team to attack the enemy." Hank turned to look at a middle-aged white man sitting not far away and said.

The middle-aged man named Jimmy has a bald head and deep wrinkles on his cheeks. His figure is not as strong as that of a Westerner, but rather smooth and well-proportioned like an Easterner. He is wearing a set of black tights. .

Jimmy was playing cards with his team members and was a little indifferent to the situation at the scene, but when he heard Hank calling him, he stood up immediately.

"Okay, BOSS."

The mercenary who was playing cards with Jimmy at the same time was also wearing the same tights as Jimmy. They stood up almost at the same time as Jimmy stood up.

The most important thing about a strong army is its discipline, and Jimmy's team in front of him is obviously a well-disciplined force.

Hank waved; "Go ahead and be safe."

"yes."

After saying that, this team with a somewhat strange style left the frontline headquarters where Hank was located.

This headquarters not only has Hank and the commanding talents of his mercenary group, but many mercenary leaders who are familiar with Hank are also here, but this is also the first time for them to see this team with all members in tights. I have always wondered why they could play cards so leisurely.

Now they have a chance to know why.

There were seven people in Jimmy's team plus himself. Their figures in tights were very conspicuous on the front line, and almost everyone's eyes were focused on these seven people.

There was some doubt in their hearts about where this group of people with unique painting styles came from.

In fact, mercenaries are not really that fond of causing trouble. A mercenary who doesn't know the A_C numbers will not last long in this industry. Everyone is in this industry to make money. If you don't mess with me, I won't have time to trouble you. Therefore, the employees in the camp just paid attention to this strange team.

But the next scene made them completely stupid.

This small team came to a row of supplies covered by military canvas, and then they lifted the military canvas covering it.

The things placed below caused everyone in the position to take a breath of air.

Darling, external armor, this thing is a serious military product, something that arms dealers covet, and there are actually seven of them here?

Externally attached armor is different from a powered exoskeleton, and the manufacturing process is countless times more complicated than a powered exoskeleton.

Although this thing is said to be a powered exoskeleton with a layer of bulletproof armor on top, everyone knows how a normal powered exoskeleton can still be as flexible as a mouse after being covered with hundreds of kilograms of armor plates. ?

If anyone really believes it, then the person who believes it is probably a monkey.

Of course, the mercenaries in the position can only take a look. Even if they snatch it away, they can't keep it. Just take a look at it to satisfy your eyes.

Wearing the external armor is very simple, just like wearing a space suit. There will be a large gap in the back for people to enter. After the driver enters, it will have bulletproof armor to close it.

There is a clear difference between the externally attached armor of this team and the externally attached armor of Zhong Nan's team. The externally attached armor of Zhong Nan's team is painted entirely in black, while the externally attached armor of this team is completely painted. There are all kinds of messy paints based on your own preferences. There was even a ruthless person who painted an 'abalone' directly on his externally attached armored chest.

"Check the equipment and prepare to go in thirty seconds." Jimmy began to move his body joints while putting on the external armor and ordered at the same time.

The other six team members did not speak, but were also moving their bodies to ensure that there would be no problems with the external armor during actual combat.

After it was almost done, Jimmy led his team members and trotted towards the manor.

The mercenaries who stayed in the position kept paying attention to them until their figures completely disappeared from their sight.

A mercenary poked his companion with his elbow and asked, "Simmons, why can they get such a good thing?"

Simmons shook his head and said, "We can't touch things on that level now, and we can't afford to offend people on that level, so just pretend we haven't seen it."

The mercenary stood there thoughtfully.

This mercenary team moved forward very quickly and arrived at the outskirts of the manor in one minute.

At this time, everyone outside the manor square was hiding behind bunkers and aiming their guns at the villa in the middle, for fear that something would rush out from inside.

After Jimmy's team entered the manor, they naturally attracted the attention of all the mercenaries present. However, they were not too surprised when they received the news that a fully armored attacking team would come to help them break through.

Jimmy and others had already read about all the current situations and everything that had happened on the way here, and they seemed to be familiar with this place.

This team did not make any extra moves and came directly to the entrance of the main building inside the manor.

Jimmy glanced at the door lock on the main building's door and ordered his men, "Fire the door with a mine."

A soldier immediately rushed forward, stuck something like a grenade on the door, and then returned to the team.

"break!"

"boom!"

The thunder exploded, blowing away the closed metal door. The soldiers who were leaning on both sides rushed in with the help of the smoke generated by the explosion.

The mercenaries from behind also filed in, immediately occupying the front living room, and at the same time aimed their guns at all possible locations where enemies might appear.

Jimmy gestured to another man wearing external armor, and he led two soldiers to start searching along a corridor on the left, while the mercenary led three people.

"You stay here and guard the exit." After saying this, Jimmy led his two men and disappeared into the darkness of the corridor.

The main building is not very big, and Jimmy finished searching the first floor in a short time, but the orders he received below made his originally calm expression become a little gloomy.

"Jimmy, I just received news that a mecha is coming. There are probably people from the S1 Club who will buy us ten minutes at most. You have to hurry up." Hank's voice was very serious, and the voice coming from him was very serious. There was also the sound of someone constantly roaring.

"Brothers, we are in trouble. Everyone speeds up the search. The rebel reinforcements are coming." Jimmy said this on the public channel in the manor, so all the mercenaries could hear it.

In an instant, all the mercenaries formed small teams and moved towards the main building of the manor.

When Zhong Nan saw this scene, he naturally knew that Zhong Wenyu's intentions might have been exposed, and he had to spend a difficult ten minutes on his side.

At this time, everyone in Zhong Nan's team has been moved to the second floor of the main building, including the two wounded.

The structure of the second floor is very different from that of the first floor. There are more accommodation rooms on the second floor and the terrain is relatively complex.

The stairs leading to the second floor are from a relatively open place, surrounded by places to hide, which is very suitable for defense.

The ten people who were still fighting were hiding behind the corners on the second floor of the main building of the manor, staring at the exit of the stairs, waiting for the enemy to show up.

Soon, several people wearing external armor came up from the stairs with weapons in their hands, and their steps were very fast.

"beat."

Zhong Nan doesn't care whether your steps are fast or slow, or whether you are cheating or not. After the second enemy appears, Zhong Nan directly orders to fire without any hesitation.

In an instant, ten bullets from different directions flew towards the two unlucky guys who took the lead.

Perhaps because of the design concept of powered exoskeletons, Jimmy's powered exoskeletons are all made of hard armor. Their flexibility and concealment are incomparable to the externally attached armors used by Zhong Nan and others, but they are really durable. .

The bullets struck the two men and produced tinkling sparks. Only a few bullets with relatively strong penetrating power penetrated the external armor worn by the two men, while most of the other bullets were bounced away.

Thanks for the recommendation votes of Zhuge Tuan, Sheqiu, and Jiujiang.
