Chapter 157: Fierce Battle at Landing Point No. 3!
Three minutes ago.
In the aircraft wrapped in the mecha, Yang Ming directly bore the pressure brought by the hypersonic speed, but did not feel anything abnormal in his body.
White Ghost’s live broadcast has officially begun.
The live broadcast is divided into two perspectives. The main perspective is from the upper back of the mecha. After advance adjustment by Lu, this perspective can overlook all the movements of the mecha without a sense of being small in the distance and large in the near.
The secondary perspective of the live broadcast is to share the image that Yang Ming can see. ——The mecha vision system is connected to the "white ghost helmet" worn by Yang Ming.
This melee mecha took Lu a lot of effort. It was the first batch of test prototypes produced by the Dark Star Shipyard and was used exclusively by Yang Ming.
The power system uses relatively mature technology, with a total of twenty-six primary and secondary nozzles in the front, middle and rear.
It is impossible for a six-meter-class mecha to be equipped with too much firepower.
This mecha is even more radical in its choice of combat system. Its only long-range firepower point is an optional independent laser cannon.
Its other combat capabilities are reflected in its melee light blade.
The more than one-meter-long hilt on the back is its main weapon. Alloy barbs can be deployed at the joints of the lower limbs and upper limbs. There are telescopic hammers hidden in the legs. The left arm is equipped with a high-energy ion jet nozzle, which has the strongest lethality within ten meters. The right arm is equipped with a defensive light blade launcher.
The benefit of sacrificing long-range firepower is that it gains more energy battery installation locations, making its energy shield thicker.
When being tested at the Dark Star Base, the shield of this mecha system could withstand a head-on attack from the main gun of a 100-meter-class battleship... Of course, it could only withstand it for six seconds.
Why sacrifice long-range firepower?
It’s very simple. Yang Ming’s original intention in designing this mecha was to fight against the Zerg.
Long-range firepower has limited killing power against Zerg, and laser guns are not as effective as kinetic weapons. Yang Ming only needs to consider three main issues: endurance, protection, and agility.
What if the mecha is blown up?
Yang Ming can choose to use particle transmission to leave, or he can choose to take out his lightsaber and go straight in.
This mecha uses a lot of cutting-edge black technology, but it also has some unfriendly aspects, such as the design of the cockpit.
At this moment, the mecha is in a fully folded state, and Yang Ming is rushing to the battlefield in a hypersonic aircraft. For now, he can only maintain a squatting posture with his legs curled up, his hands on his chest, and his helmet is also a little stuffy.
It's very frustrating.
The aircraft was one minute away from the Imperial Marines landing point.
Yang Ming took a few deep breaths, and a barrage of comments quickly flashed across the lower right corner of his helmet's view.
He had to remain silent from now on and could not contact Lu. Any sound he made would be broadcast live to all parts of the Sherman Empire.
"Turn off the barrage."
Yang Ming spoke in a processed low voice, and the barrage in the lower right corner disappeared immediately.
The live broadcast rooms that had been divided into hundreds of rooms immediately became sparse with live comments filling the entire screen. The audience who had spent three thousand imperial coins to enjoy the holographic perspective did not even dare to breathe.
This is the voice of the White Ghost.
Yang Ming became extremely irritated.
The starry sky appeared in front of his eyes again, and this time, he saw countless swarms of insects and the bloated queen insect whose body was several hundred meters long.
"Go to Empire Landing Point No. 3 and activate the blood weakening mode."
Yang Ming's voice sounded again, and the aircraft began terminal guidance.
The tragic battlefield on the ground appeared in Yang Ming's main perspective, and after a delay of a few milliseconds, it appeared synchronously in each of the live broadcast rooms.
The barrage became increasingly scarce.
The impact of the war scenes caused serious mental stimulation to ordinary people.
Swarm!
There are swarms of insects everywhere!
Huge insects swarmed towards the landing point. Thousands of imperial soldiers who had just launched the offensive built a stranglehold with the weapons in their hands.
Bright green blood continued to spurt out, and the insect with broken limbs continued to rush forward.
If it weren't for the ion beams that tore through the dark clouds and blasted the insects into pieces, preventing the swarms from forming a full-scale advance, this landing point would have been impossible to defend.
Yang Ming only watched for a dozen seconds, and two lines of defense were almost breached. It was only with the fire support from the attack boats and landing craft in the rear that they were barely able to hold on.
The soldiers shouted.
The soldiers roared.
The soldiers held on to their guns tightly, using their roars to interweave into a barrage of bullets, trying to repel the swarm of insects.
Landing Point No. 5 has been destroyed.
Landing Point No. 12 has been destroyed.
The swarm of insects was almost unstoppable, and the soldiers who were landing were like a bonfire that could be extinguished by the waves at any time.
The automatic detection systems of various live streaming platforms tried to shut down the live broadcast, but only a small number of servers were interrupted.
Just at this moment!
"The aircraft is detached and ready for recovery."
Yang Ming growled, his voice becoming increasingly irritated.
The missile-shaped aircraft's engine was shut down, and the lower hatch opened. The mecha, which maintained its curled-up shape, slid straight down, and the aircraft flew rapidly upward, immediately moving away from the battlefield area.
Mecha cockpit.
Yang Ming took a deep breath, put his hands into the left and right control gloves, stepped his feet into the iron-boot-like foot control sleeves, two lines of code flashed on the helmet, and the sound of the rapidly descending wind buzzed in his ears.
Yang Ming stretched all four of his limbs at the same time!
Mecha unfolds!
The curled up mecha stretched out its body, and the six-meter-tall metal giant spread its limbs and pounced on the ground. The square and compact head that had dozens of detectors was pushed out of the chest.
The suspension balance system is activated.
Start with the propulsion system near the ground.
Light shield activated.
As the soldiers below watched, the mecha flipped half a circle in the air and adjusted to a standing position.
The Imperial Star logo on the top of the mecha was shining, and the white ghost spray paint on the chest was not dry yet.
The flame mecha, with its thrusters on its back spurting out brilliant flames, was like a butterfly spreading its wings, rushing through the swarm of flying insects in the air, falling straight to the ground, and creating a sonic shock wave under its feet!
boom!
Heavy hammer strike!
The heavy body of a shield beetle was blown to pieces. The powerful impact force stirred up layers of dust, and more than a dozen Zergs with rock shells were blown away.
The mecha landed one hundred and twenty meters away from the defense line built by the soldiers.
The soldiers saw the steel figure standing in the smoke;
I saw that the swarm of insects seemed to be inexplicably afraid. The swarm of insects that were originally rushing towards me frantically now seemed to be frightened by something and slowly retreated to the rear.
What the soldiers couldn't see was that the pilot in the cockpit was trying his best to endure it.
Yang Ming was trying hard to breathe, as if the collision just now had seriously injured him.
In reality he was just controlling his desire to kill.
Yang Ming could clearly sense that the queen insect hiding in the ground was trembling constantly. She was roaring continuously, causing the huge adult insects to start carrying her bloated body.
Kill it.
Kill it.
Kill it!
bite--
The tinnitus gave Yang Ming a splitting headache, and it felt like flames were burning all over his body. The test strips attached to his body fed his physical data back to the Feinan.
Suddenly, the swarm of insects that had been shrinking and retreating around it rushed towards the mecha regardless of everything.
Yang Ming's tinnitus reached its peak, and when he thought his head was going to explode, his eyes suddenly became clear and his brain became extremely active.
Back!
Extreme rationality and endless desire to fight!
He regained the state he was in two years ago when he slaughtered those Zergs.
The swarm of insects surged in like a wave, beams of light passed across the shoulders and sides of the mecha, and the soldiers in the rear began to rush to support.
A sneer appeared on Yang Ming's lips. He stretched out his right hand and pulled out the hilt of the sword that was more than one meter long behind him!
Buzz——
The four-meter-long light blade illuminated the insects' compound eyes.
The soldiers in the rear used a loudspeaker to shout at the mecha to retreat, but when the light blade flashed and Yang Ming leaned forward, the mecha had already charged forward.
The shield is partially opened, and energy is supplied to the light blade.
The flames advance and the light blades sweep across!
A piece of severed limb flew upwards, and the shield of the mecha blocked the splattering blood. This six-meter-tall mecha actually performed a series of incredible movements with incredible smoothness, such as jumping with bent legs, sweeping with one hand on the ground, and quickly slashing with light blades.
The tough armor of the bugs was as thin as thin paper, and narrow spaces were cleared in front and sides of the mecha.
The pressure on the defense line of Area No. 3 suddenly dropped. The soldiers looked at this scene in disbelief. The on-site commander immediately mobilized long-range firepower to provide long-range support to the position of the White Ghost Mech.
In the mountains and fields, the red mecha rushed back and forth with light blades, but did not really leave the landing point.
Five minutes later, the commander here even sent this response to the flagship:
"Landing point No. 3 is stable, sustainable landing, sustainable landing!"
And a third perspective has been added to the major live broadcast streams controlled by Lu.
It was a high-definition aerial view of the battlefield taken by satellite, showing the brutal landing operation, the endless swarm of insects, and the ghost mechas active outside the defense line of the landing point.
Many people asked about the model of this mecha.
Lu made up a name that suits their organizational style.
Evil Ghost No. 1: Experimental Type.
In the fleet in the air, General Thomas stared in disbelief at the battle images transmitted back from the surface. These split-screen images even included the live broadcast perspective of the White Ghost.
The officer next to him kept whispering:
"Is this a new model of mecha developed by our country?"
"The mecha itself can actually withstand this kind of action. The expensive materials used are somewhat scary."
"Melee mechas are very effective against bugs... but it seems to require a lot of training to achieve this. If this mecha is promoted throughout the army... well, the cost-effectiveness is far inferior to that of warships."
General Thomas frowned slightly.
He observed the situation everywhere and found that the Zerg were actually shrinking their front lines overall.
More special insects approached landing point No. 3, and the swarm seemed to want to extinguish the fire of the white ghost.
General Thomas was keenly aware of this, and after careful consideration, he issued an order that would have seemed crazy to him ten minutes ago.
"Send out the Wasp Squadron! Search the entire ship for the location of the Queen! Fight on land, aiming to destroy the Queen !"
"yes!"
…
The administrative star of Earl Mensa's fiefdom.
In the detached villa where Emilia and Princess Daina lived, the maids and guards from the Luofeng Empire gathered behind the sofa where Emilia was sitting, watching the live broadcast on the projection screen in front of them.
The white ghost's main perspective was maximized by Emilia.
Emilia had a holographic glasses at her hand. She had just paid to open the holographic view, but the oppressive feeling from the Zerg made her take off the glasses after only three minutes.
After this live broadcast, it is estimated that tens of millions of people in the Sherman Empire will patronize the psychiatrist's business.
"Your Highness, the White Ghost is too powerful! He can still fight!"
"When will we have this kind of mecha technology? If we have a hundred of these mechas and skilled pilots, we might be able to counterattack the Zerg."
"Don't let your imagination run wild. This technology must be the latest technology from the Sherman Empire."
"Is there some mysterious research institute of the Sherman Empire behind the White Ghost?"
"The powerful Sherman Empire has existed for tens of thousands of years. They must have many mysterious families. Maybe these are the descendants of the legendary secret troops of the founding emperor. They are entrusted with the important task of protecting the imperial family and stood up at the critical moment to save the empire from collapse."
Emilia: "Keep your voice down."
The guards and maids quickly shut up, held their heads high and continued watching the live broadcast.
Emilia was wearing a long skirt with her legs together and swaying sideways. Her slender neck and graceful figure had already made many young men and women unable to help but secretly observe her.
She thought quietly and said slowly: "The White Ghost has kidnapped the Imperial Military."
An elderly lady-in-waiting asked with a smile, "Your Highness, why do you say that?"
“From the first landing points chosen by the military, we can tell that they have no intention of actually launching ground combat, otherwise they would not have created a semicircle of encirclement.
“In this situation, the best way to conduct a landing operation should be a gradient formation, with elite vanguard troops bearing the pressure and allowing the rear troops to deploy quickly.
"In fact, if we really want to launch a ground battle, we need to land from a farther position to extend the Zerg's attack distance. While reducing our own pressure, we can also maximize our air superiority advantage."
Emilia curled her lips slightly:
“The original intention of the empire was to have a number of soldiers killed or wounded to tell the people throughout the Sherman Empire that we tried our best.
"A large number of soldiers were killed or injured, and the war scenes stimulated the people, which could not only increase their trust and reliance on the military, but also make it more reasonable and easier for the military to gain military merits.
“It’s just a political explanation.
"Then, the Empire should directly destroy this administrative planet after the soldiers evacuate, and announce to the public that the Zerg Queen is about to evolve, and that sacrificing a small number of people is to protect more people, and those who sacrifice themselves are all heroes.
"It's a simple political move, and the military can minimize the losses."
The group of men and women were silent.
"look."
Emilia pointed at the third batch of landing ships that appeared on the live broadcast:
“The military has now changed its intentions for the war because they have discovered that there is now a better plan – if they can attempt to behead the queen, they can recover the huge losses that would otherwise be unavoidable.
"They're starting to try this plan in earnest, and the number of soldiers in these landing ships seems to be much smaller because more space is freed up for weapons and equipment.
"So, White Ghost kidnapped the Imperial military... This might be the meaning of his live broadcast."
The female official asked incredulously: "Your Highness, how did you come up with this analysis?"
"You need to use your brain," Emilia said, with a smug smile flashing across her face. "Major Yang Ming taught me a lot."
When they heard the name, the guards suddenly realized something and the maids' eyes sparkled.
The captain who was the first to order the firing on the powerful fleet of the New Federation during the Battle of Luofeng Palace has become a legend in the hearts of the young people of Luofeng.
In the live broadcast, after the landing ship landed, a group of carrier-based mechas rushed out and officially joined the battle.
The White Ghost's mecha became a banner.
As the firepower of the human side increased, the Evil Ghost No. 1 Experimental Type began to advance forward.
At the feet of these bulky carrier-based mechas, a group of special soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor began to charge. They threw away their laser guns, used super-long lightsabers as weapons, and quickly rushed in the direction of the white ghost.
"Boss, be careful, it's the special force that participated in the Valkyrie encirclement and suppression campaign."
Yang Ming heard Lu's voice.
He turned his head to look at the sudden special forces, and began to slow down his pace, leaving some spare energy to deal with possible attacks.
The sound of an engine rang out, and a man with long golden hair and a flying backpack flew close to the ground, heading straight towards Yang Ming.
Yang Ming's light blade suddenly came back, and the figure hurriedly braked and stopped in front of the light blade precariously.
"White Ghost!"
The man took off his combat helmet, revealing a rough face, and yelled at Yang Ming in his exaggerated voice:
"The empire's most elite combat team is here to assist you in the battle! We must find the queen! There are endless bugs to kill!"
This guy... Yang Ming discovered that he actually knew him.
A high-level instructor of the warrior class in the Empire faction in "Abyss". He is an expert in using a lightsaber and his hobbies are harassing other female instructors and drinking.
The background node of the game "Abyss" is twenty-six galactic years away from the current galactic time point. The current Gris has not retired from the front line, and is still a middle-aged uncle with well-developed muscles and a flashy hairstyle.
"Okay, Captain Gris," Yang Ming said calmly, "You guys go ahead first, I need to replenish my energy."
"Uh..." The blond man was stunned.
What's going on?
Isn’t my original name a secret?
He has been using numbers over the years, and the team members call him the captain, the boss, and the most handsome one in the team.
However, Yang Ming did not give him time to think and retreated directly.
A group of insects swooped over, and Gris let out a strange cry. The flight backpack pushed in the opposite direction, and his body slid backwards lying flat. He raised his hands and pressed forward. The armor on his arms cracked at the same time, and twenty-four 20-centimeter-long "arrows" made of special alloy flew out and accurately hit the compound eyes and joints of several insects.
Gris drew out his lightsaber, opened the protective shield, and when he stood firm, he had already met up with a dozen men and women with different equipment.
"Secure the defense! Wait for White Ghost to come back! He went to recharge!"
"These bugs are as fragile as paper, Boss! We can do this job without the white ghost!"
"Damn! Save the ammunition!"
" After , all the enemies in the world are like dust."
"You will challenge the queen later."
"Fuck, boss, I was just kidding! White Ghost's mecha is so cool!"
"Disperse the formation appropriately to reduce casualties!"
The dozen elite members of the special forces shouted in unison:
"yes!"
