On the dead coast, on a floating dock paved with steel plates, a group of construction workers wearing work clothes were coming ashore one after another with shovels and tool boxes.

They are soldiers of the Imperial Expeditionary Force and have been stationed at Youtiao Port until now.

Although the alliance would occasionally take them out for target practice, it was obvious that the players had no intention of throwing them on the front line from the beginning.

And thankfully so.

When walking ashore, many people vomited on the spot, their faces turned pale, and their hands and feet became numb.

The reason for this was naturally seasickness, but half of it was also due to the tragic situation on the beach.

I saw swollen and mutilated corpses scattered randomly on the beach, some were blue, green, and some were human. Although the bodies in the trenches have been removed by the players, some mutants who died in the sea were later washed up on the beach one after another by the waves.

Not just corpses, but also alien species wandering over based on the smell.

Some outrageously large sea crabs were the first to smell the rotten smell, and they gnawed on the corpses, devouring the buffet.

Swallowing saliva and stomach acid, everyone moved their stiff legs to the shore.

But at this moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out from the shore.

"boom--!"

The sudden sound of gunshots startled everyone, and the muscle memory formed by training made them lie down subconsciously until they saw a blue jacket wearing an exoskeleton coming towards them.

"Don't be nervous, it's me."

Carrying a shotgun and walking next to the pier, the half-year-old waved his hand with a hesitant smile, and then pointed to the row of floating piers under everyone's feet not far away.

I saw a mutated sea crab that was more than one meter tall lying in the waterlogged sand pit, with half of its head completely shattered by a shotgun bullet.

Because the color of the carapace was so similar to the beach, everyone who was focused on the corpses on the shore didn't notice it.

Looking at these frightened soldiers of the expeditionary force, he said with a wasted half-year-old smile.

"Pay attention to your feet. The pliers of this thing are very powerful. It only takes one click to break your legs... We have already given you enough money, but we don't want to help you install another prosthetic leg."

Seeing that no one was talking, he stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Your mission is simple, which is to clean up the corpses on the beach, drag them together to a place about five kilometers away from the coastline, and then burn them with the fuel we provided you..."

"The military strength of the Torch Church in the nearby area has been destroyed by us, so there should be no danger. Of course, I can only say that it should be. After all, anything can happen on the battlefield. You have to keep your eyes open and be prepared. A potentially dangerous preparation."

"This is the situation. If you have any questions, it's best to ask them now. If you don't have any, you can start working."

After saying these words, I waited for a while, and when I saw no one said anything, I was about to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, a young man raised his hand fearfully.

"I...have a question."

His voice was a little timid, as was the case with most Ratfolk when talking to them.

Even though he was half a year old, he didn't care and waved his right hand.

"Then ask quickly."

The young man swallowed and spoke quickly.

"Why not just let those crabs eat them..."

In his opinion, there is no need to worry about these things. Anyway, the crabs can be eaten cleanly by leaving them alone.

Hearing this whimsical idea, Half Year Old laughed out loud and said in a teasing tone.

"When you feed them, guess what their number will be?"

Why do these NPCs look more like NPCs than me?

After saying that, he was about to turn around, but the young man whispered again.

"Then what if we find a place farther away from the pier? Dig a puddle there and bury the body in it... maybe we can also lure the mutated sea crabs here."

It wasn't that he thought it was troublesome to move the corpse, but he mainly thought that the crabs were edible and it would be a pity to drive them away.

When they first arrived at Youtiao Port, they often picked up crabs that had been beaten to death by the Alliance soldiers, and even grilled them with the Alliance soldiers.

Hearing this, Half-Year-Old Wasted glanced at the young man in surprise.

Good guy.

Are the NPCs in this game so real? !

But having said that, it was a really good idea after he thought about it carefully in his head.

Of course, the main reason was that he also wanted to improve the food, so he walked up with a smile and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"Brother, what's your name?"

The young man said tremblingly.

"㫡..."

"Then I'll call you Ah, haha, the future crab tycoon Ah."

As he said this, he wasted no time and threw a bunch of keys with license plate tags into his hand. Then he thought about something and pushed the thing in his hand over, and continued with a smile.

"You've got the truck, and these guys are at your disposal...and this shotgun and walkie-talkie. I want your crab farm to be at least five kilometers away from here, and if you're attacked, call us."

The young man named 㫡 was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with ecstasy.

"Don't worry, sir, just give it to me. I will make sure you are satisfied!"

From the smile on the face of the Alliance soldier, he seemed to see an opportunity to change his destiny!

If this thing is done well, maybe I can stay...

The half-year-old man didn't care about the delay. He smiled and made a "go get busy" gesture, and then walked back to the shore.

Standing on the shore and waiting, I saw him approaching and asked.

"Is it okay to do this?"

Half a year old said with a wasted smile.

"What's the problem? It's good to use the mutant's corpse waste. Don't be so serious, haha."

Maybe when the war is over, this mutated sea crab will become a local specialty.

Seeing his playful smile, Yi Dengtian made a helpless expression.

"Fine."

He didn't think it mattered, as long as it didn't affect the delivery of supplies.

The dusk hanging in the sky gradually fell.

While the expeditionary forces from Youtiao Port were landing one after another, Duke Nihak, who was still living on the South China Sea Alliance fleet and refused to disembark, finally hesitantly came ashore after seeing General Li Minghui go ashore. .

After all, he is also the Grand Duke of the empire, so he cannot be underestimated.

It's not just that.

As the Grand Duke of the Empire, if the expeditionary force finally landed on the territory of the Torch Church, it would be unreasonable for him not to show some expression.

But what he didn't expect was that the situation on the shore was even more tragic than he imagined. The thick smell of blood did not dissipate even if the sea breeze blew for a whole day.

Standing on the undulating steel plate, Duke Nihak felt as if his nasal cavity was soaked in blood, and his calves could not help but feel weak.

Is this the front line...

His Adam's apple moved up and down as he swallowed a few mouthfuls of dry saliva, his pupils showing uncontrollable fear.

Although he had seen the true strength of the alliance on the holographic screen, the death he saw through the screen was far less profound than what he felt at the moment.

These guys are not human beings...

Whether it's those lying on the beach or those guys camping on the shore...

They are all devils!

Pushing away the guard who came to help him, he moved to the shore with stiff steps.

Not far away is the Alliance camp, with tents lined up on the edge of the beach, and lights on the sentry towers.

He had a glimmer of hope in his heart, expecting that the camp would be filled with wounded people, expecting that this battle would hurt both the Torch and the Alliance, and expecting that the Empire would stand on top of the world from now on. However, when he walked into the camp, everything All hope was lost.

The soldiers sat on the ground where they had fought, and raised bonfires where the enemy had fallen.

They didn't care about the bullet marks and blood stains on the ground at all, they just sat in front of the bonfire, even chatting and laughing, roasting meat and singing songs.

Not even just Union soldiers.

He saw with his own eyes that several soldiers from the expeditionary force were also sitting together with them. Among them, there were also people who knew how to play music, impromptuly playing the piccolo of Borneo and beating drums made of animal skins and bones, playing to the hoarse voice. Accompanied by powerful singing.

“…the gears of heaven fell into the furnace.”

"Boiling molten steel splashed from the furnace."

"The undying natural disasters never cease."

"We will remake the realm of mortals!"

"..."

"The hound of chaos was decapitated."

"The flames of punishment are the home of lies."

"If you confuse right and wrong, that's the way to heaven..."

"Then let's turn it upside down first!"

He couldn't understand what those people were singing, but he felt that the blood flowing in his veins was surging with the melody.

A trace of fear suddenly arose in his heart, especially when he saw the soldiers of the [Expeditionary Force] also humming softly along with them.

The lyrics seemed to contain some kind of treasonous curse...

Someone noticed him and pointed over with a smile. When he came to his senses, he was already being pulled to sit down together in front of the bonfire.

The two guards who were following him were also pulled in front of the bonfire.

"...Be happy, don't look so grim, the war is about to end!"

"Although you still have a lot of problems to worry about, at least now we can celebrate our common victory..." Murderous Dagger smiled and patted Duke Nihak's shoulder, "This is a victory for all mankind, not just for us. , belongs to you too.”

"...Stop, stop talking nonsense!"

Duke Nihak's eyes widened, like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on, and he was still very, very old.

"We have no problem, we are very good! The problem is you, it is you who brought those stinking things... to bring that wasteland to Bornaya! Before you came to our place, we were very good." very!"

His beard was trembling with anger and his lips were blue. He didn't even realize the contradiction in his words - he said it was very good now, but he said it was very good before the alliance came.

Looking at this living clown, the players laughed out loud, and Brother Shadagger smiled again and patted him on the shoulder.

"Of course you are very nice. People buried in the ground don't know how to talk."

He still vaguely remembered that when they caught this guy, he was happily alive in bed.

Before the beard-blowing and staring-eyed Duke could retort, Brother Shadagger poured him a glass of wine.

"Come on, come on, drink wine and eat meat. Today is a day worth celebrating. Don't ruin your friendship for a little bit."

Looking at the meaty legs stuffed into his hands, Nihak couldn't help but think of the corpses on the ground. His face turned slightly pale and he asked in a trembling voice.

"What kind of meat is this?"

Seeing his frightened look, Sha Dian immediately knew that he was thinking wrong, so he laughed and said.

"We just made monster meat. It tastes a bit like bear meat...try it?"

Seeing the provocative look, Duke Nihak didn't want to be looked down upon, so he took a bite with a dark face.

The aroma of barbecue spread between his lips and teeth, and the oily texture made his eyes light up.

Um……

This tastes surprisingly good?

Although the people in this alliance are a bit rough, he has to admit that these guys still have good cooking skills.

The players saw that the Duke was no longer noisy, so they continued the banquet talking and laughing.

Murderous Dagger was laughing and chatting with his teammates, when suddenly a light blue icon popped up on the VM.

"Lao Dong is calling me. He's probably on a mission. You continue to eat while I take the first step."

After saying hello to his teammates with a smile, he picked up his helmet, put it on, and walked to the command tent deep in the camp.

When he opened the door curtain and went in, he saw Lao Yi and Fang Chang standing next to the command table, meticulously staring at the map spread out on the table.

It was rare to see two people showing such serious expressions. Murderous Dagger immediately guessed that a big job was coming, and an excited expression appeared on his face.

"Come to work?"

"Yeah, and it's a big job..." Fang Chang nodded, holding his chin, and summarized the information he just heard from the Guards Corps.

To put it simply, the middle and high-level leaders of the Torch Church had a mole who led the way. Since he was not on the "evacuation list", they hoped to surrender to the alliance for a chance of leniency.

Murderous Dagger thought that this guy was really unlucky.

Generally speaking, since everyone knows there is such a list, why should they be on the list?

It turned out that this person was quite interesting. He knew about the list but was not on it.

But let's not discuss how this guy got into this position. What puzzled him the most was another incident.

Are the top leaders of the Torch Church planning to run away?

These guys are surrounded by them, they are the bastards among them, where can they run away?

Is there any place on this earth for them to stay?

Wait, could it be——

Seeing the stunned expression on Murderous Dagger's face, Fang Chang smiled lightly and said.

"It seems you realize it without me having to explain."

Murderous Dagger nodded, his expression condensed.

"The Torch Church has a spaceship on its hands..."

Fang Chang: "..."

Lao Ji coughed dryly.

"What do they want the spacecraft to do...you have to think about it again."

Murderous Dagger was stunned for a moment.

"Ah? Then...where else can they run?"

"Actually, it's not impossible," Fang Chang said suddenly, "Maybe it's a spaceship, maybe a space station, or even a satellite or even a hard disk... But the possibility of them escaping directly on the spaceship is very small. I am more inclined to think that they intend to transmit signals to outer space equipment through some kind of high-power transmitting device.”

There are a large number of spacecraft debris floating in the outer space of this planet, including some still working satellites and even automatic weapons.

Due to the widespread application of nuclear fusion technology, the service life of many outer space equipment left over from the era of the United Nations is measured in centuries.

After a pause, he continued.

"If that's the case, I have reason to believe that as soon as we discussed it, they have completed the data transfer. Don't forget, those guys don't have entities in the first place, they have already lost their data. Uploaded to the so-called Holy Land."

Murderous Dagger was stunned for a moment and said in confusion.

"Wouldn't that mean... there's no point in chasing after us now?"

"It's not meaningless. Although it may be unrealistic to intercept data migration, at least we can figure out where their data is sent, and..."

Staring at the map intently, Fang Chang continued speaking.

"Where are our enemies?"

"The enemy..." Murderous Dagger didn't understand what he said, so he repeated the word without knowing what it meant.

Lao Ji looked at him and explained.

"Chang Fang and I agree that there may be other supporters behind the Torch."

Murderous Dagger: "The other supporters are..."

Looking at Brother Shadeng who still knew nothing, Fang Chang said bluntly.

"Do you still remember the third update of the previous Beta0.6 version, the Nanmen Galaxy and the world of Gaia?"

"Damn it, you mean... planning to draw that cake?" Sha Dagger looked at him confused, "But isn't that a whole job..."

Fang Chang smiled faintly.

"Then you underestimate A Guang too much."

When everyone thinks it is a joke, there is a high probability that it is not a joke.

He can be sure that the 㩙光㹓外㱕map has been completed, and it has been affecting the game world since the Beat 0.6 version, but most people are not aware of it.

He is not yet sure that the torch is supported by the "Gaia Force", but he can be sure that the task in front of him is the first link between players and the task chain related to the new world!

He could even assert that similar opportunities may have appeared before, but no one took advantage of them.

It is precisely because of this that this mission flies directly to them like a straight ball.

Most of the items in this game seem to be isolated from each other, but in fact if you dig deeper, you will eventually find connections with each other!

He can confidently say that no one understands A Guang better than him!

After listening to Fang Chang's analysis, Murderous Dagger also felt that he was responding like this, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

"In other words, the opportunity for us to establish an opportunity with the outside world is in this mission? Wait, Gan! Then if we fail, won't we miss the opportunity to open a new map?"

Fang Chang shook his head and said.

"That's not the case. Since the game team has made the map, it will definitely give players a chance to go. It's just that many missions in this game are unique, and the opportunities given to each player are limited. If we do this this time If you miss it, it will be triggered by another player next time.”

"It's useless to analyze these now. Let's go back to the mission itself."

Lao Yi coughed slightly, ended the topic that had gone astray, and continued talking while looking at the map spread out on the table.

"...According to the intelligence from the Guards Corps, the Torch senior executives are currently hiding in an underground facility called Vault 20. The entrance to this shelter is located in an abandoned old-era industrial park, and it is as abandoned as Vault 182. A new shelter will be opened later, so it will not be very difficult for us to break through the security system. "

"The name of the NPC who provided us with information is Kallen. We now have her biometric information, whether it is fingerprints, iris or measurements... Well, in short, she may have important information in her hands, including the top leaders of the Torch Church." Her whereabouts, supporters behind the torch, and information on the Gestalt Lifeform research project, etc. Therefore, our first priority is to ensure her safety, and the second is to suppress the entire research facility and seize control of Vault 20. "

"According to the coordinates provided by the Guards Corps, this shelter is about 100 kilometers away from our landing point. One-third of the road in the middle is still hilly, and the road condition is very poor, so I'm afraid not much investment will be made in this battle. type of equipment.”

Fang Chang nodded.

"Using a Viper transport plane to break in quickly is a better choice... After all, it belongs to the realm of heaven, and a quick victory would be better."

"I have the same idea as you," Lao Ji grinned and continued with a serious look, "In addition, the Guards Regiment reminds us that we must be careful of friendly forces... This research institute is very close to the 310,000th Corps of the Legion, only 㩙Ten kilometers away. If we make too much noise and make them realize there may be some treasure there, it's hard to say whether they will interfere and mess up the situation. We must not let the Torch researchers fall on them. On hand."

The Vaillants are also the holders of Gestalt life form technology, and the eight-fold growth clone is the product of this project.

In fact, it's not just the legion, they also have to be careful about the academy.

The former is at least active in the light, while the latter is active in the dark most of the time. It's hard to say whether they already know something.

After all, although it is true that those who have been fighting against the Torch are members of the Alliance, the people who know the Torch best may not necessarily be members of the Alliance.

Even before the alliance was born, the academy had already noticed the emerging crisis in Haiyatu Province, and they were the ones who "encouraged" the alliance to enter Jinhe City.

"So there is no air support available?" Murderous Dagger said with a serious expression.

Fang Chang: "There is no problem with air support, and a small amount of artillery fire should be no problem, but the saturation barrage coverage should be more cautious. This is equivalent to telling the army that there is a large-scale movement in our area... If we can keep a low profile It’s best to resolve the situation. If you must use it, try to wait until the moment of retreat or conclusion.”

"That's basically it," Lao Yi nodded and looked at the murder dagger and continued, "In addition, according to the information provided by the informant, there is a ruling team of the Torch Tribunal stationed near the facility, as well as people loyal to the Third One Holy Light Knights. The former is less than a company, but the latter has about a battalion and is equipped with a large number of high-tech weapons."

"In addition, our drone also discovered a mutant army in an abandoned city not far from the facility, with a size of more than a thousand... It is suspected to be a mutant tribe that was withdrawn from Shifeng Mountain. Once the Torch Church "Key facilities are under attack, and they have no reason not to rush over to provide support."

"Therefore, I plan to divide the troops into two parts. One part will serve as a feint attack force. They will carry light equipment and fly to the vicinity of the abandoned city on an Overlord transport aircraft. They will launch a surprise attack on the local mutant troops and try to attract the attention of the Torch as much as possible. The other part will Then take the Viper transport plane and rush directly to the entrance of Shelter 20, and cooperate with the inside to take down the entire facility!"

"That's a good idea!" Murderous Dagger nodded with bright eyes, but when he saw both of them looking at him intently, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, "Uh... why are you looking at me like that."

Speaking of which, why is it that I am alone in a battle meeting?

Where are the other brothers?

Lao Yi and Fang Chang looked at each other, and finally the latter walked up to the murderous dagger and placed his hands on his shoulders solemnly.

"...We plan to hand over this arduous and glorious feint attack mission to your first battalion!"

Murderous dagger: "..."

Blanch!
