Volume 2 Ghost Army Chapter 184 Danger Ahead
After getting on the hovercraft, Li Jiu and his companions soon arrived in front of the huge silver-gray wall.
The next moment, an incredible scene appeared!
There was no passage at all on the giant wall not far away, but the two drivers drove the hovercraft at no speed at all, rushed directly into one of the giant hexagonal frames, and passed through it without any hindrance!
"Hmm? Is it a technology similar to quantum gates..." After seeing this scene, Li Jiu immediately thought of the quantum gates used by the Night Rose Mercenaries.
After they passed the giant wall, the whistling wind outside and the explosions of battle in the distance suddenly disappeared, but at the same time, bursts of noisy noises and the sounds of machinery operating came into Li Jiu's ears.
Looking at the scene inside the base, Li Jiu's initial feeling was just one word: "big"!
The space inside the base is very large. There is a huge azure dome above the head, and below it there are buildings, streets, a large number of military hovercrafts of various styles, many heavy weapons and equipment... and so on.
In a word, this place is simply a smaller version of Mini World!
Of course, there are naturally many people in this small world , and almost all of them are soldiers.
In addition, the number of troops here is extremely large, which is also Li Jiu’s second feeling after entering the base.
Looking around, you can see busy soldiers everywhere, just like ants, busy with their tasks on the streets, in hovercrafts, and on various large weapons and equipment.
After entering the base, two hovercrafts slowly drove to a nearby parking platform and parked there. Everyone got out of the car and followed Seth to collect supplies.
Along the way, Seth kept introducing the conditions of the base and the current situation in the Fourth War Zone to everyone.
At first, Li Jiu was naturally very curious and listened to Seth's introduction, but soon he found that Seth was indeed very enthusiastic and talkative. However, he just talked too much, even a little chatterbox...
Once this guy started talking, he couldn't control his mouth. He kept talking non-stop, rambling on and on, as if he wanted to express his opinions on various things...
What’s even more annoying is that this guy was wearing a dust mask while he was talking, so his words were unclear.
After seeing this situation, no one knew what to say and could only feel ashamed in their hearts.
After all, the other party is the host anyway, and they will rely on this guy to lead the way, so no one wants to provoke him, so they can only listen to his nonsense helplessly...
However, Seth's words were not all nonsense. Li Jiu still heard some useful things from his large amount of content, and these things shocked his little heart once again...
First of all, Li Jiu learned that this huge base could accommodate five million alliance soldiers!
Of course , most of them are clone warriors, and only a few are normal humans.
What's even more shocking is that this huge base is just a small base among the many bases of the Fourth Army in the African battlefield...
That’s right!
It’s just a fucking small base!
And in the entire Fourth Legion, there are nearly 200 million soldiers!
However, compared with the Fourth Legion, the number of frontal troops of the Defender Empire on the African battlefield is even more terrifying!
According to Seth, a conservative estimate is that the number of enemies defending the Empire in the African battlefield is at least over 300 million...
At this moment, after Li Jiu arrived at the base of the front battlefield, he truly felt the terrible scale of this war.
Just imagine, if the entire Fourth Legion were to go out in full force to engage in a decisive battle with the Defender Empire's enemies on the African battlefield... that would be a super war involving 500 million soldiers!
And such a war can definitely be called a shocking super meat grinder!
However, let's imagine further, if the five armies of the alliance, plus many mercenary groups, fought a decisive battle with the Defender Empire at once... that scene, I'm afraid it can only be described as the end of the world...
"Huh..." Thinking of this, Li Jiu felt that his heartbeat seemed to accelerate, so he couldn't help but take a deep breath immediately, and then continued to follow Seth forward.
In addition, Li Jiu also learned about the current war situation in the African battlefield from Seth's words.
Now, the Alliance has built a line of defense in the northeast corner of the African continent using this huge legion base, occupying the resources in the northeast corner of the continent.
As for most of the remaining areas, they are in the hands of the Defender Empire.
It can be said that on this front battlefield, the Alliance is still at a disadvantage.
However, it was this small northeast corner that the Fourth Army finally occupied after a long and bloody battle. Moreover, it cannot be said that it has been completely occupied yet...
This is because the overall strength of the Fourth Legion is weaker than the combat power deployed by the Defender Empire on the African battlefield. Therefore, the Alliance can only rely on war bases to deal with the enemy and ensure the safe exploitation of resources in the region, but it cannot send troops to station in the occupied area.
Therefore, within the area occupied by the Fourth Legion, traces of small groups of enemies would often appear.
Especially in the border areas with the Defender Empire, enemies often appear.
Unfortunately, the destination of Li Jiu and his team's mission this time is right within the boundary of the two sides' influence...
This means that they are likely to be attacked by the enemy before reaching the mission location!
Therefore, when Li Jiu and everyone heard this, their expressions became serious.
"Hehe, don't worry. I, Seth, will escort you this time. Even if we really encounter a small group of enemies, they will not pose a threat." Seth saw the sad expressions on everyone's faces, but he smiled indifferently.
Listening to Seth's assurance, everyone's expressions seemed a little strange...
If we had just met this guy, we would have believed his assurances to a certain extent, but after listening to his nonsense, we were no longer confident...
However, since they have come this far, no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, they can only rush forward without hesitation!
Not long after, Seth led everyone to the place to collect supplies.
The supplies Seth mentioned were simple, just asking everyone to bring some food for individual combat. Because Li Jiu and his team had to cross the front battlefield and enter the enemy's sphere of influence, in order to avoid being exposed, they could not use any means of transportation, so they would have to walk a long way, and they would inevitably need some food and water on the way.
After everyone brought food and water, they got on the two military hovercrafts again, left the base, and headed towards the mission site.
Before setting off, Seth also found two vehicle-mounted Gatling heavy machine guns and installed them on the back of the hovercraft to prevent encountering enemies on the road.
After seeing this scene, everyone suddenly felt that Seth was somewhat reliable, so they set out on their journey with increased confidence...
