Knocking wonders from the space station

At night in the Rainforest Continent, the bright and bright moonlight shines through the gaps between the hundreds of meters of giant trees, mottled the metal deck of the Dawn Outpost.

Due to the cover of dense vegetation, the rainforest is dark at night.

Blown by the majestic wind, the swaying shadows were like shadowy ferocious beasts, making the Dawn colonial troops on duty frightened.

roar!

Ouch~

Hiss...hiss...

Suddenly, a roar of wild beasts came from deep in the forest, and the whole forest seemed to be awakened and became noisy.

All kinds of strange screams came and went, echoing around the outpost like a stereo sound.

The soldiers on duty on the watchtower suddenly opened their eyes wide, sweating profusely and operating the monitoring equipment back and forth, trying to see through the thick darkness in the distance.

Suddenly, the guard on Watchtower No. 2 became extremely frightened. He stared at the instrument screen for two seconds, and then rushed towards the alarm button regardless of his own safety.

"Enemy attack!!!"

Woo~

The alarm rang wildly over Outpost A13, and the high-pitched sound could even be heard in the Dawn Colony 3 kilometers away.

"What's going on! Where is the enemy?"

The phone in the watchtower immediately rang, and a man's roar came from inside.

"Captain! The detector has detected a large number of life signals and is approaching us at high speed! It is expected to arrive in... one minute!"

"Damn it!"

Curses came from the other end of the phone, followed by the thud of metal boots on the metal floor, beating like a drum in the nervous guard's heart.

Just when the guard was about to regain his composure, the captain finally spoke again.

"Soldier, continue to keep surveillance! When you find traces of the enemy, come to me immediately... Forget it, hold on there, I'll go up right away!"

Then the phone hung up.

When the guard heard that the captain was coming, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

John was just a corporal in the Dawn Colonial Army.

A month ago, he was just an interstellar miner rushing to put things on the shelves. Four months ago, he didn't even know how to use tools and was a corporate employee sitting in an office!

Now,

He joined the Freemasons and became an honorable Legionary of the Dawn, under the command of Captain Lucas "The Lord Guard", a full member of the Order.

Captain Lucas is the supreme commander of this outpost, commanding 30 conscripts like himself.

Even before he joined the Freemasons, he was just a security guard...

In the Dawn Colonial Army, only Freemasons can appoint official officers.

"Secretary" is the title of the internal defense personnel of the Freemasonry. To John, he is already a high-ranking figure.

Although colonial officials did not explicitly say so,

But John knew that his status as "Citizens of the Dawn" could not be compared with that of the Freemasons.

My own class is destined to be ruled by others.

It's just that the hard-hitting members who consider themselves "masonry" above me now sound more polite than the capitalists on earth.

As for freedom, people's livelihood, human integrity and so on...

In the past, I might have marched on the streets, but now, I have recognized the reality.

"Corporal! Report the situation!"

Suddenly, Captain Lucas's shout interrupted John's thoughts. He quickly turned back and found that the captain had already arrived at the guard tower with a rifle.

"Well, the signal stopped 500 meters away from the outpost. I think... they are gathering?"

"Soldier! When reporting a situation, you only need to explain the situation accurately and objectively! Do not add any of your personal opinions, as that will affect my judgment!"

"Yes! Sir!"

Captain Lucas hung the Goblin rifle behind his back and came to the equipment in the lookout booth.

"Damn it, these beasts are going to rebel! There is no evidence that they have a chain of command..."

Lucas gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, apparently he also thought that the beasts were gathering.

However.

roar!

Another roar came. Lucas didn't feel anything yet, but John's expression changed.

He seemed to have heard this voice before!

"Captain, there may be something wrong with the roar just now..."

"Huh? What's the problem? Apart from the louder voice, what can you hear?"

Lucas replied nonchalantly.

"Uh... I think the beasts are afraid of the owner of this voice..."

"Oh!"

Lucas was dismissive. He didn't believe that a small corporal could have such a keen judgment on the battlefield. To his ears, the cry just now was just the roar of wild beasts during a fight.

Nothing special.

After another minute, Lucas grabbed the phone and started giving orders.

"Class A, Class B, you should immediately go to the wall with your weapons, and be careful to bring explosive weapons that can disperse the herd!"

"Yes! We are already moving ammunition!"

Because the fence is open to the air, weapons and equipment are usually stored in warehouses to avoid damage by the harsh environment.

"Class C, send someone to take the engineers to the observation tower! Keep an eye on the cannons on it. If the automatic system breaks down, you can operate it manually. When the fight starts later, you can't make the turret misfire!"

"I understand, I'm crawling now~"

"Logistics class, prepare your pack walkers, stay with the research team, and stand by in area B!"

"Okay...ok."

Lucas gave orders one by one in an orderly manner.

He has good qualities and has a calm demeanor when commanding. No wonder he joined the Freemasonry.

The colonial army at this outpost only has 30 conscripts under him. In order to monitor forest data and collect and transport samples, half of the logistics team and a three-person scientific research team are stationed.

There are less than 40 people in the entire outpost. Once a fight breaks out, they can only rely on the terrain and defensive facilities to hold on and wait for reinforcements.

Without rescue, we can only break out and evacuate.

At that time, the five pack walkers used to transport supplies will be the guarantee for their high-speed movement in the jungle.

This kind of piggyback robot specially built for rainforest areas is equipped with slender four legs, which can stably fly through dense forests full of thorns without being knocked down. It is definitely easier to use than the powered exoskeletons equipped by soldiers.

However,

The five packwalkers can only carry a maximum of 20 people, plus the scientific team still has some samples that need to be brought back...

The corner of Lucas's mouth raised a cold arc.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Suddenly, there was a rhythmic earthquake on the ground, and Lucas, who was sitting on the tower, even felt that the watchtower was shaking violently.

"What's going on!"

"Then...there's a monster over there!"

John was so frightened that he hid behind the observation window, revealing a pair of panicked eyes. He held up the searchlight by the window with both hands. The white beam of light immediately dispelled the darkness ahead.

hiss……

Lucas took a breath.

Under the pale light, I saw a "small island" covered with green plants walking towards the outpost step by step. Although the pace was slow but the span was long, it was already less than a kilometer away from the outpost.

Wherever he passed, the previously gathered beasts made way for him to avoid being trampled to death by the giant feet.

"Little Island" let out a familiar roar.

It turns out that these monsters are not gathering, but out of fear, waiting for this giant beast to use the chopsticks first!

And isn’t the delicacy on the table just like their isolated island in the forest?

"Get help quickly!"
