Machine Wars : Full Metal Storm

Surface base, in the command center.

On the big screen, a scene of a runway at the base airport was displayed.

At this moment, on the road, an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft is getting ready to set off.

"Self-check completed."

"The drone is ready to go at any time."

The pilot responsible for controlling the drone looked back towards the bridge.

On the bridge, the base commander said calmly: "Let's go."

The next second, the picture on the big screen began to shake slightly, and the scenery on both sides slowly receded.

When the scenery recedes faster and faster, and finally turns into a blur of light and shadow, the horizon of the runway also begins to drop, and finally disappears from the screen.

At this time, the Tai Sui recycling site on the distant land can be seen on the screen.

You can see farther away, a forbidden area where explosions and flames appear from time to time.

Then these things began to disappear from the lens. As the drone continued to fly high into the sky, only the blue sky and white clouds finally appeared on the screen, only the endless blue sky, and a gray storm deep in the forbidden area.

The storm was located high in the sky, where the sun was dim and the wind was howling.

Clouds and high-altitude dust are pulled by the constantly rotating airflow, forming a gray storm.

In the corner of the big screen, a window appeared.

Inside the window is a computer analysis of high-altitude storms and a model simulating airflow.

Judging from this model, as long as the drone can cut into the storm and then fly in the direction of the airflow, it will have the opportunity to enter the inner circle of the storm and get a glimpse of the reality in the storm.

Cutting into the storm or even flying in the storm will be completed by the computer.

In the past few days, the analysts at the base have done a lot of work on the storm, designed flight procedures for the storm, and conducted multiple simulated flights to ensure that they can successfully enter the center of the storm today.

"I'm going into the storm."

The driver said: "Switch to automatic driving mode now."

After he pressed a button, he released his hands and saw the drone's control stick moving on its own.

On the big screen, the unmanned reconnaissance drone has cut into the storm. The screen is shaking violently. Nothing can be seen. The lens is filled with gray clouds.

After a while, the vibration of the lens weakened, and the picture gradually became clear.

People in the command center saw that there was a peak rising from the ground in the storm.

The surface of this black mountain peak is so smooth that it doesn't look like a natural product at all, but something manufactured.

Just on the top of the mountain, feathered insect-like flying beasts were circling around the top of the mountain, making bursts of screams.

Most of those flying beasts are low-level Gu Eagles, and a few mid-level Gu Huo Birds.

When they get tired of flying, they will fall to the edge of the peak platform to rest.

After resting for a while, it will fly into the air again and continue to repeat the previous work.

And on the peaks protected by those flying beasts, through the lens, people saw a dark figure dormant there.

Because of the distance and the camera shake, it was difficult to see the whole figure clearly. It just felt like some kind of huge bird.

The giant bird's wings spread out and covered the top of the mountain, as if it was protecting something.

Suddenly, a few rays of light lit up in the black shadow, and the shadow shook, as if a giant bird had raised its head.

This action caused a gap to appear under the bird, allowing the people in the command center to see what was under the giant bird.

Before I could see clearly, the camera vibrated violently, then the screen shook, and the world in the camera began to spin.

Just as the camera was pointing upward, the torn remains of the drone appeared on the screen, as well as a scene of a Gu Eagle flying overhead.

Then the screen disappeared.

The commander said solemnly: "Has the scene just been recorded?"

"have."

"Then play it again."

Soon, the scene captured by the reconnaissance plane was replayed on the big screen.

When the dark and huge figure on the peak raised its head, the commander shouted: "Stop."

"Enlarge the picture under that thing and make it as clear as possible."

Subsequently, the computer made corrections based on the picture captured by the reconnaissance aircraft, and soon a clearer picture appeared on the big screen.

You can see in the picture that there are several gray eggs under the black shadow!

"What's the egg?"

"Egg, who laid the egg!"

"Eggs are laid on the top of the mountain and protected by flying beasts."

"Could it be that?"

While there was a lot of discussion in the command center, a voice rang out.

"It should have been given birth to by the 'danghu'."

Everyone looked towards the bridge. The commander held on to the fence and stared at the picture on the big screen.

"This can also explain why the 'Danghu' has become so active recently."

"Also, why did Tai Sui attack the base?"

"They are protecting the offspring of the 'danghu'."

One stone stirs up thousands of waves.

"Speaking of which, I remember that during the battle in the 'Misty Canyon', there were reports of the Overlord Behemoth producing descendants."

"The same goes for the Sky Overlord in Changping City. They also have records of producing descendants. Therefore, Changping City believes that the reason why Kun came to the ground is to find a suitable place to give birth."

"This is not surprising. The giant beast 'Dilong Stone Plain' will lay Dilong eggs every once in a while, and the Qingyang underground city needs to be cleaned up."

"No, what I mean is, will the overlord behemoths in other forbidden areas start producing?"

"If that's the case, it's going to be a big problem."

"For animals, when the environment is suitable, their reproductive instinct will cause them to produce the next generation."

"Although behemoths and animals cannot be confused with each other, in essence, I feel the same."

"Now that the earth's surface is basically occupied by giant beasts, do they think that the current environment is suitable for them to reproduce?"

"To put it this way, once the overlords of each forbidden land begin to produce offspring."

"Then it won't be long before more overlord behemoths appear and more forbidden areas appear."

"I thought it was a lot of peace during this period. Even the 'Yamfu Space' didn't appear much. I thought good times were coming. It was the calm before the storm?"

There was a lot of discussion in the command center. Although no one had direct evidence, there were so many reports pointing this out before, so it's not surprising that they were speculating in a bad direction.

"Quiet."

The commander said calmly: "It's not our turn to care about these things."

"If this is really the case, I believe the Strategic Office has already discovered it."

"Maybe there are countermeasures in place now."

"What we want to focus on now is the 'City of Tricks'."

"Immediately send the footage just taken to Guangling and Qingyang cities. In addition, notify the R&D department and ask them to seize the time to develop the hair sample."

"If there are no accidents, the decisive battle should begin soon."

"When the time comes, we can't let the 'high wall' deep in the dangerous area block our way!"

[Thank you everyone for your concern and encouragement. I have read all the messages. I have not coded in the past two days, and I have been relying on saving manuscripts.

After these few days of adjustment, I have stabilized my mentality. People always move forward while losing, and heal themselves while collapsing.

What’s more, everyone supports me, and I can’t find a reason to fail. So, let’s go all out! Will update tomorrow, thank you everyone!]
