Interstellar Soldier

165 Sudden Attack
Although the Prometheus star is a lone star, the nearest star is several light-years away, and there is no day and night cycle, but it is not irrelevant to the darkness. The faint light from the surrounding gaseous nebula illuminates the Prometheus star , so that the sky is always like dusk.

Achilles Canyon is located south of Polaris Base, and is the deepest canyon in the vicinity.

It is also an ever-changing canyon.

In fact, Prometheus is a constantly changing planet.Because the formation time is very short, the crust of the Prometheus star has not yet been fully formed, and geological activities are very frequent.Over the past 1000 years, the Achilles Canyon has grown hundreds of meters in depth and nearly doubled in size.Over time, this canyon will split the entire crust, and will eventually be completely swallowed by the magma gushing from the center of the earth.

Of course, the current Achilles Canyon is not peaceful either.

Compared with the dim light emitted by the nebula, the red light shining from the canyon is very bright.It was fire, to be precise, it was the crimson fire emitted by high-temperature magma.

In this canyon, which is more than [-] kilometers long and more than ten kilometers wide, there are densely packed temporary camps built by the Silicon Demon Legion.Every point of light is a camp, and every camp has thousands, even tens of thousands, of silicon demon warriors from a legion.

Here, how many silicon charm fighters are there! ?
It's just that all the silicon demon fighters stayed in the camp, and even the patrolling troops in charge of security only went back and forth between the camps through specially built passages.

Obviously, for silicon-based life, the environment of Prometheus is even harsher.

To put it bluntly, it's too cold in here.

Most of the time, the surface temperature of Prometheus is around minus 150 degrees Celsius, and the temperature is also lower than minus [-] degrees Celsius.Even in the event of a nebular storm, in which ionized gas gathers and releases the embedded electrical energy, the temperature near the ground is about minus fifty degrees Celsius.For silicon-based life whose body temperature exceeds [-] degrees Celsius and whose living environment is around [-] degrees Celsius, Prometheus is simply a cold hell.Even the most stalwart of silicon ghost warriors will immediately freeze, incapacitate, and die in just a few minutes due to the loss of body heat when exposed to the outside world.

To survive, the Silicon Charm warriors had to stay inside the camp.

Those flames are the light from the heat source.

Each camp has a heat source driven by a primary energy converter, which keeps the temperature in the camp above [-] degrees Celsius by melting rocks.In order to avoid heat loss, energy barriers were erected in all camps, and passages wrapped by energy barriers were built between camps.

After observing carefully for a while, Yang Yi finally counted. There are almost a thousand camps in the canyon.

Although not all legions have [-] warriors, for example, the Legion of Armored Berserker only has [-] fighters, and only legions formed by weaker troops like humanoid rock demons are equipped with [-] fighters according to the standard. , but in this huge canyon, there are at least millions of silicon ghost warriors.

What is this concept?
There are only [-] human officers and soldiers guarding the Polaris base.

Obviously, the Polaris base can be taken down at any time by the enemy if he wants to.Not to mention using all the troops, as long as one-tenth of the troops are invested, the entire Polaris base can be wiped out.

So, what are the enemies waiting for?
"A small team is in place."

"The second team is in place."

"The three teams are in place."

……

Reports from various team leaders came from the earphones, the raid has been deployed, and we are waiting for Yang Yi to give orders.

Although Yang Yi is only a major officer and has no official position, the idea of ​​the raid was proposed by him, and with the support of Lin Feng and Jackson, Shen Chengwen followed suit and asked Yang Yi to be in charge of commanding the raid, while he led the officers and soldiers of the Strategic Squadron Attack.

Lin Feng slightly nodded towards Yang Yi, without saying anything.

"According to the plan, the first round of attacks will be launched in 5 minutes." Yang Yi did not hesitate, and gave the order to start the operation.

After finishing speaking, Yang Yi turned around and nodded to Jackson and the others who were hiding behind, telling them to get ready too.At this time, Lin Feng contacted Karl, who was ambushing nearby, and asked him to prepare for action according to the battle plan.Although Yang Yi did not intend to bring the defenders of the Polaris base, Karl insisted on participating in the operation and selected a group of elite officers and soldiers.Besides, guarding the Prometheus star is their duty, and they are more familiar with the environment near the base.After Lin Feng agreed, Yang Yi couldn't object.In any case, Prometheus belongs to the first war zone, but Yang Yi and the others are from the third war zone.

5 minutes, whether it is long or not, or whether it is short or not.

When the first explosion occurred, Yang Yi realized that 5 minutes had passed and the attack had begun.

Immediately afterwards, explosions occurred one after another.

It was the officers and soldiers of the strategic squadron led by Shen Chengwen who made the move.

The target of the attack was the heat source in each camp. Shen Chengwen and the others used a wire-guided missile, to be precise, a missile controlled by Yuan Neng.This kind of missile has a wire, through which the officers and soldiers of the Special Investigation Brigade use their own original energy to control the flight direction of the missile.After breaking through the energy barrier of the camp, the missile went out of control, and accelerated to the highest speed in a very short period of time, making the final sprint.At this time, even if the enemy finds the missile, it cannot intercept it, let alone prevent the missile from concentrating on its target.Although limited by the carrying capacity of officers and soldiers, this kind of missile is not very powerful, but it is enough to blow up the heat source after hitting.

The strikes were very precise. After each explosion, a heat source was destroyed, which meant that a camp was destroyed.

In a blink of an eye, the heat sources in dozens of camps were destroyed.

This time, the canyon exploded.

Although there is an energy barrier to protect the temperature in the camp, the temperature in the camp will not drop immediately, but without a heat source, the heat in the air will be absorbed by the surface, causing the temperature to drop sharply.It only takes a few minutes at most, and the temperature in the camp will drop from more than 1000 degrees Celsius to below 10 degrees Celsius.Although for carbon-based life like humans, the temperature of [-] degrees Celsius is still as hot as hell, but for silicon-based life, as long as the temperature drops to [-] degrees Celsius, it will be disabled, just like human beings exposed to cold wind naked Similarly, it takes only a few minutes to lose the ability to move, and it only takes [-] minutes at most to faint, or even die of shock due to cold.

In the camp that was attacked, hundreds of silicon ghost warriors rushed out of the barracks and fled around like headless flies.

Most of the silicon ghost fighters flocked to the passage leading to other camps, but the passage was too narrow, and it was impossible for a legion of silicon ghost fighters to pass through at the same time.

In order to survive, no one is willing to give in.

At the same time, the nearby camps that were not attacked also became agitated, and some camps even closed the passages to prevent the silicon demon fighters from the nearby camps from entering.

Quite simply, energy is limited.

While the energy barrier prevents heat loss through the air, it does nothing to prevent heat loss through the ground, and every living Sigilian absorbs heat.As a result, the heat output from the heat sources in each camp can only be consumed by the silicon ghost warriors in the camp.

Accepting silicon ghost fighters from other camps is tantamount to putting yourself in danger.

Besides, the sudden influx of hundreds of thousands of Silicon Charm fighters will definitely cause chaos and cause serious consequences.

Don't forget, most of the silicon ghost fighters are simple-minded, well-developed limbs, and very irritable, even in normal times, they are uneasy, let alone when life and death are at stake.

A few minutes later, the second attack came.

It was still the strategic squadron led by Shen Chengwen, but the target of the attack was the camp at the other end of the canyon.

The two attacks were like lighting two fires in a haystack. The chaos and commotion quickly spread, and the entire canyon became lively.

It was at this time that the big bang happened.

This time, it was the garrison led by Karl who did it.

The explosion occurred on the cliffs on the northeast side of the canyon. It was detonated by thousands of miniature bombs projected into the canyon and drilled into the rock.

Although the explosion was far from the camp, the damage it caused was horrific.

Thousands of small bombs detonated at the same time, the cliff more than ten kilometers long was completely trampled, crushed rocks fell like raindrops, and more boulders rolled down into the canyon.Even if the silicon ghost warriors are extremely strong, they will be buried alive by the collapsing rocks.

The explosion point was in the middle of the canyon, and the falling rocks cut off the canyon from the middle.

In the canyon, some silicon demon warriors rushed out of the camp and fled, but they were frozen to death within a short distance, and were smashed into pieces by the falling boulders.More silicon demon fighters hid in the camp, but unfortunately, the energy barrier could not withstand the collapsed boulders, and what awaited them was the end of being buried alive.

At this time, a group of silicon demon warriors flew out of the canyon.

They are all warriors, and they are all warriors with cars!

Warlords have original energy converters, can make energy barriers, and can also go outside the camp.

Seeing this situation, Yang Yi gave Shen Chengwen and Karl an order to retreat.They have already completed the mission, there is no need to fight those warriors desperately.Besides, the generals are very powerful in battle, and the only one who can compete with them is probably Shen Chengwen, not even Karl.

In the canyon, there were screams again and again.

Taking advantage of the weak light, Yang Yi slipped down from the hillside where he was hiding, followed by Lin Feng, Jackson and other original team members.

The previous attack was just to create chaos and make the enemy mess up.

There are so many legions gathered in the canyon, and they are standing still, which makes Yang Yi believe that the enemy must have made a big move, maybe they are opening a tunnel to the center of the earth.Just destroying dozens of camps and killing hundreds of thousands of silicon ghost fighters cannot make the enemy give up their attack on the Polaris base.It is necessary to give the enemy a heavier blow and cause the enemy to suffer greater casualties in order to make the enemy retreat.
