#133 - Chapter 133 Actual Combat Begins

Another 10 days passed, and the trainees received new equipment: a weakened version of the Guardsman 1 laser rifle.

The original Model 1 laser rifle could kill. To avoid unnecessary personnel injuries during training, Dongfang Chen specially produced a batch of weakened laser rifles. How weak were they? Being hit only caused a burning sensation, and wouldn't cause any harm. In this case, they basically didn't need to replace the energy棒, equivalent to unlimited bullets.

For the needs of the exercise, some adjustments were made to the weakened laser rifles. If it was detected that the user was hit, the laser rifle would be locked and unable to fire.

Another 10 days passed, and the first phase of training was basically over.

After completing the phased formation acceptance, everyone received the last piece of equipment for this stage: bone comms.

This was the first-generation bone comm, which allowed real-time intercom, enough for training.

May 1, 2055, the second phase (team assignment phase) of training officially began.

From this stage onwards, the trainees entered the live combat exercise phase.

Early morning.

"Ding-ling-ling~"

Without prior notice, a bell rang in the trainees' bone comms.

"Attention all trainees! Attention all trainees! The second phase of live combat training officially begins. You have 15 minutes to prepare. The camp will be attacked in 15 minutes. Repeat, you have 15 minutes to prepare. The camp will be attacked in 15 minutes."

The broadcast ended. Everyone quickly got up, organized their equipment, and left the camp.

15 minutes later, hundreds, even thousands, of giant robots resembling kangaroos, walking on two legs and equipped with two laser rifles, frantically poured into the square.

The robots were taller than people. They had a rectangular electronic number plate on their heads, all marked with the same bright red number: 1000.

Bold trainees lurked in the buildings near the square. They saw the densely packed robots pouring into the square and their scalps tingled.

It was introduced during the first phase of training that the number plate on the head of this special training robot corresponded to its health value.

1000 meant that they could withstand 1000 attacks. When the number reached zero, it meant that the robot was dead and could leave the battlefield.

Trainees could earn 1000 points for each robot they eliminated.

"Mission: Successfully survive for 24 hours. Trainees who are not killed after 24 hours will be rewarded with 100 points."

The trainees received a mission prompt in their bone comms.

"Goodness, Mr. Dongfang is really going all out to train these newbies!" Rong Po said with emotion as he stood on the roof and saw the swarms of robots.

How great would it be if these robots were equipped in their troops! Wouldn't killing zombies be like cutting leeks?

"Wasteful! So wasteful!" Rong Po muttered.

"Captain, how about we talk to the commander and purchase a batch of these robots to take back?" the deputy said from the side.

"We'll see. We don't know if they can take a beating or not. Don't let them be like a deaf man's ears, just for show," Rong Po replied.

After these special training robots came to the camp, they wreaked havoc everywhere, tearing apart everyone's tents in minutes. This clearly told everyone that they shouldn't expect to rest well for the next month.

The robots could locate everyone. The lights on their heads kept flashing, allocating targets. Then, these robots went off in groups of three or two to track their respective targets.

"Captain, do you think these robots can locate those newbies?" the deputy asked.

"Of course they can!" someone behind him answered. It was Dongfang Chen.

"Mr. Dongfang, aren't you being too cruel? Averaging five robots to one person, and you're still installing locators? How can these newbies possibly survive?" Rong Po laughed.

"Haha, robots are robots after all. I also want to see, in a confrontation between robots and humans, which side has the advantage," Dongfang Chen said.

"That depends on the situation. I think in this case, the robots already have a numerical advantage and can accurately locate everyone. There's no way these newbies can win," Rong Po said.

"Then we'll wait and see," Dongfang Chen did not continue to argue.

Practice is the best way to test truth.

The instructors returned to the base one after another. The electronic screens in the office area could view the situation outside in real-time. Everyone sat together, watching and discussing.

This could be said to be the first battle between humans and robots in history. They had never encountered it before, and it had great learning significance in itself.

The screens also showed the real-time changes in the trainees' scores.

In today's 24-hour survival challenge, they could earn 1 point for every drop of health they knocked off a special training robot, and the person who killed the robot could earn an extra 100-point headshot bonus.

Under this incentive, the trainees were not timid and were full of fighting spirit.

There was also another reason: everyone knew that they were not in mortal danger.

In this state, the trainees' casualty rate was also very high. After all, they would be eliminated as soon as they were hit by a robot once.

Sure enough, less than 10 minutes into the game, 20 people had already been killed.
