From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars

As the commander of the 'Mammoth' passed the overtaking shooting method, he pressed the fire button the moment the reloading was completed.

The alloy penetrating rod, whose discharge speed reached Mach 10, once again dragged out an orange line of fire across the street.

But the pilot of this fanatic was obviously no rookie.

After the heavy particle cannon fired, he ordered the combat auxiliary AI to connect the main energy supply of the body to the deflection field generator.

He immediately controlled the fanatic to kneel down on one knee, and at the same time clasped the laminated armor shield on his right shoulder diagonally in front of him.

The moment the orange line of fire came into contact with the fanatic, it was deflected into the air by the burst of white light.

Therefore, in the eyes of others around him, a bright orange-red line remains on the retina.

The weight of the Zealot, which is nearly a hundred tons, also makes it stand like a rock in the face of the shock wave generated when the re-cannon fires.

After withstanding this attack, the Zealot began to retreat and deployed another charged particle cannon, preparing for a deterrent shot.

As the captain of the HCP team in the Blue Bay Empire Force, 'Flytrap' immediately took his wingman 'Werewolf' after being attacked in Blue Bay and rushed to the backup command post according to the scheduled procedure. He also quickly communicated with the command post. People there got in touch.

When he learned that the entire team's communications and battlefield information transmission had been severely disrupted, the team's shrinking defense progress was not going smoothly as a result.

'Flytrap' finally decided to attack alone to cover the retreat of our own soldiers towards the inner city.

With the mobility and attack capabilities of the HCP, when fighting in urban areas, it can completely protect a target while supporting friendly forces within a radius of 3 kilometers.

What's more, he also has a wingman for support.

After ordering the 'Werewolf' to provide support near the backup command post, the 'Flytrap' drove the Zealot into the nearby streets.

With the assistance of the plasma propulsion array on the back, the fanatic is like a dragonfly touching water, able to cover a distance of nearly a hundred meters with each step.

As for the airborne combat auxiliary AI, when battlefield information transmission is not smooth and identification of friend or foe cannot run smoothly, it will continue to perform identification of friend or foe through electromagnetic signature analysis and image recognition.

When the 'Mammoth' heavy multi-legged tank across several streets from him opened fire for the first time, the combat auxiliary AI immediately issued a 'strong magnetic field detected' warning to the 'Flytrap'.

‘Flytrap’ knows that there is no HCP of its own in that direction, and apart from these four Zealots, there are no other weapons in the imperial troops in Blue Bay that can cause such a warning.

It could only be the federal electromagnetic reconnection cannon firing.

So the 'Flytrap' just took advantage of the reloading gap of the 'Mammoth' and seized this opportunity to complete a handsome sliding approach, set up the cannon and fire, and then put up the shield to defend.

The whole process was smooth and smooth, and it even directly destroyed a Mammoth.

But that’s about it.

"Lilith, how much window time do you have to attack?"

"Well, the other Zealot is five streets away from here. Master, you only have 30 seconds at most to attack!"

"40 seconds? That's almost enough."

Amber, who was hiding in an alley with a group of mobile infantry, looked at the steel giant raging on the street in front of him and silently went over the battle plan in his mind.

Before the steel giant appeared just now, Lilith had already captured the location of this fanatic through the city camera.

Amber also simultaneously passed the information to the friendly forces on the main road, but unfortunately their response was still a step slow.

In other words, this fanatic was too decisive and acted too quickly.

At present, the situation that was finally supported by the two Mammoths before has become out of control after the arrival of this Fanatic.

Although the charged particle cannon it is currently deploying can be defended by the deflection force field of the Mammoth.

But this was only temporary. Under the threat of heavy particle cannons that could fire at any time, the remaining Mammoth had to consider retreating.

Seeing that the offensive momentum was hindered, Amber had to stand up at this time.

After all, every second the battle to attack Blue Bay drags on, the more likely it is that an orbital strike will fall overhead.

"Do you all know the battle plan?"

After completing her preparations, Amber turned to look at the mobile infantry beside her.

Except for the three squad leaders who were responsible for commanding the three motorized infantry squads to continue advancing from another street, the other 'veterans' were all called over by Amber.

These mobile infantry who have experienced the Battle of the Nameless Woods are much better than other newly recruited soldiers when facing the HCP.

"It's clear! Chief Amber! This isn't the first time, we will take cover!"

"Don't let me go! If I die in battle, I will come to your dreams every night to claim my life!"

Amber's words made these mobile infantry laugh, and the originally tense atmosphere was relieved.

"Okay, listen to my command."

Amber walked to the exit of the alley and got ready to sprint.

Other mobile infantry have also entered the building on the side of the alley one after another. They will advance through the building through rapid blasting.

"3, 2, 1! Let's move!"

As soon as Amber finished speaking, she turned into an afterimage and rushed out. At the same time, a 30-second countdown appeared on the HUD of the tactical visor.

"boom!"

An explosion was also heard from the building on the right.

This is the news that the mobile infantry began to use 40mm automatic grenade launchers to launch obstacle-breaking shells for explosive advancement.

The sound of the explosion immediately attracted the attention of the Imperial infantry near the HCP in front of the street.

These soldiers who were lucky enough to survive were currently in high tension, so when there was an explosion from the side, they reacted instantly.

Seeing a medium-sized exoskeleton approaching at a strange speed on the side street, these imperial soldiers subconsciously turned their guns and fired directly.

In their knowledge, they do not have such a unit.

When Amber, who was sprinting, saw them turning around, he also hung the Gauss machine gun on the side gun mount of the individual anti-vehicle missile bay behind him.

Then, without losing speed, he raised his right hand.

"Activate the deflection field!"

A deflection force field shaped into an ellipse under the control of a constrained magnetic field spread out in front of Amber like a translucent shield.

At the same time, Imperial orbital paratroopers opened fire.

The steel needle bullets fired by the Gauss rifle hit the deflection field like raindrops, bursting out into clouds of electric sparks.

Although the deflection field is not that effective against live ammunition kinetic energy weapons, this exoskeleton, which is dedicated to frontal breakthroughs and is equipped with a deflection field generator, is more than enough to deal with the Gauss rifles in the hands of ordinary infantry.

Amber, who was sprinting while the Imperial soldiers were shooting at him, was not idle either. He used the 'pupil lock' mode to target these Imperial soldiers who were hiding behind various obstacles at the street entrance.

Then the back individual anti-vehicle missile bay was activated and one of the missiles was powered on.

"Lilith, after correcting the impact point data, attack directly!"

After Lilith 'lived' in the microprocessor in Amber's body, when Amber was connected to the exoskeleton through the interface, Lilith naturally took over the operation of each module of the exoskeleton to assist Amber in combat.

Like now.

After correcting the impact point to a position that could cause maximum damage, Lilith directly launched the attack.

An anti-vehicle missile quickly shot out from behind Amber, drew a curve in the air, and then turned sharply downwards.

"Who says anti-vehicle missiles can't be used to hit other targets?"
