Chapter 891 Humans and Ancient Orcs
"Concentrate your firepower on that ten-meter-tall orc boss! Pull out all the heavy weapons we have, and bring out the Brutal Blade as well!"

At the place where the transport ship crashed, on the temporary position of the traversers, they were fighting with the orcs who kept rushing towards them. Lasers flew from the weapons in the hands of the orcs towards the traversers' position. The position built with portable position modules, which could have been used for a high-intensity battle, was evaporated by those laser weapons under the firepower of the orcs.

The metal plates that were originally as strong as the fleet's alloy, under the attack of those energy weapons, were like ice melted by high temperature. Every time the orcs shot, the metal plates on the positions would evaporate, which made the traversers feel very uncomfortable. After all, although the traversers were more reckless, the difference between having cover and not having cover on the battlefield was still very huge. So at present, the traversers were forced to retreat to the wreckage of the transport ship by the group of orcs.

Now, they can only rely on the wreckage of the transport ship to deal with those orcs, and use the wreckage of the transport ship as a cover. The huge transport ship can't last long under the attack of the orcs. Every shot of the orcs will destroy some structures of the transport ship, so the traversers can only fight those orcs fiercely.

The time travelers moved out almost all of their weapons. On the wreckage of the transport ship, hundreds of heavy bombs were continuously fired at the orcs. Hundreds of light edges composed of bombs were constantly hitting the orcs. However, the damage caused by those bombs to the orcs' power armor was not that great. Although the penetration of the heavy bombs could penetrate the orcs' power armor, when the heavy bombs penetrated the power armor, their kinetic energy would be greatly reduced. As for the orcs' flesh, the warheads of the bombs with reduced kinetic energy did not cause much damage to them.

Often a heavy bomb must be fired continuously to kill an orc, and the most difficult to deal with on the entire battlefield is the orc boss. That guy is more than ten meters tall, and the heavy bombs hitting him can hardly hurt him. In addition, this guy has a personal protective stand device on his body. If his personal protective stand is not penetrated, then those heavy bombs can't hit him at all.

Faced with this orc boss who could not be penetrated by heavy bombs, the time travelers came up with a ruthless move. They directly manipulated the still movable point defense turrets on the wreckage of the transport ship, preparing to use these fleet weapons used in close-range firefights against missiles and warships to attack the orc boss as an individual creature.

While the point defense system on the wreckage of the transport ship was constantly rotating under the control of the traversers, the orc boss obviously noticed these things. His scarlet eyes stared at the rotating point defense platforms. He was not wearing a helmet. In other words, except for those cowardly fart spirits, most of the green-skinned guys in this world would not wear a helmet. Although this thing is integrated into their power armor, the attitude of those green-skinned guys towards helmets is that they think this thing is completely unnecessary. For the ancient orcs in this world, they think that wearing a helmet is actually an act of cowardice. After all, in this world, only those cowardly fart spirits like to wear helmets.

The orc boss stared at the point defense systems on the wreckage of the transport ship. It looked at those rotating point defense systems and their structures. It took it only two seconds to understand what those things were. At the moment when the orc boss understood what those things were, it raised its weapon and began to shoot at those point defense systems. High-energy lasers flew out from the weapons in its hands and shot at those point defense systems.

Those point defense systems were almost instantly destroyed by the shooting of the orc boss, and at the moment when the orc boss destroyed all the point defense systems within his sight, a rocket-propelled ammunition directly hit its defense field. Its defense field was instantly overloaded under the attack of this rocket-propelled ammunition. At the moment when its defense field was overloaded, a series of twin-mounted accelerator cannon shots instantly tore open its hard power armor and shattered the flesh under the power armor into pieces.

"Solved! Luckily I brought this thing with me before I came down!"

A time traveler was looking at a portable rocket-propelled ammunition field gun developed by the First Engineer Regiment at his feet. The caliber of this thing was comparable to that of the Emperor's Poison Blade. It could also be said that this thing was modified from a gun barrel removed from the Emperor's Poison Blade. This thing had no automatic loader, everything was manual, just like a field gun from the World War II era. The time travelers also brought this thing with them before coming to this world. After all, the First Engineer Regiment needed this thing to fire a few shots on the battlefield and collect battlefield data.

Now it seems that the power of this thing is really good. When facing those heavy armored units rushing out on the battlefield, the effect of this thing is still very good. It's just that the loading speed of this thing is too slow, and everything needs to be done manually. Even with the strength and speed of Astartes, it takes several seconds to load the ammunition of this thing. Moreover, the recoil of this thing is also a huge problem. The previous shot basically shattered the entire gun mount and it had to be reassembled.

"It takes time to reassemble... If another wave of enemies comes, it will be a bit..."

The time traveler stared at the field gun at his feet. He picked up the gun barrel on the ground and prepared to reassemble the field gun. Just as he was about to reassemble the field gun, a laser suddenly penetrated his helmet, turning him into a headless corpse.

And just when the body of the traverser fell to the ground, the orcs finally rushed to the wreckage of the transport ship. They did not pause for the death of their boss. After all, to them, those who died on the battlefield were actually just a group of weaklings. Even their boss was the same. Although their daily life was similar to that of a group of tools, they still longed for war and fighting.

Before, they could still carry out their previous work in this world step by step, but when the war really came to this world, they could no longer maintain their previous state. For them, the Tyranids in this world were just beasts that no longer had any pressure, but the humans who came to this world were different. These humans had similar technology to them, powerful weapons and fighting will, and they were very smart. This was the enemy that the orcs wanted. Those ancient orcs broke through the defense line of the traversers, and one by one the traversers were turned into corpses under their weapons. However, the closer the orcs got to the traversers, the more they found a problem, that is, although they killed a lot of traversers, the number of those traversers seemed to have never decreased. The firepower density of those traversers was still so strong, and the number of people was still the same as before.

It was as if those corpses on the ground were not those of the traversers. Some orcs even saw that the traversers on the battlefield had the same appearance as the corpses on the ground. This made the orcs feel extremely confused. They had never seen creatures like humans, but they just thought that those creatures were very suitable as opponents. So, after a brief moment of confusion, they thought that those humans had the ability to resurrect. After they thought that humans had the ability to resurrect, these orcs became even more excited, because they thought that humans were a kind of opponent who could fight with them all the time, and such a good opponent was really too rare.

After seeing the orcs' excited reactions, the second group of time travelers were filled with doubts about this group of ancient orcs. They didn't understand why these guys were so excited about them, and the time travelers all felt a little confused.

Even if they didn't understand why those guys were so excited about them, the battle still had to be fought. After all, it was absolutely impossible for them to let the antimatter bomb fall into the hands of the orcs before they received Wang Ming's order.

"Captain, I'm afraid we can't hold this place."

Ye Fan looked at Hu Jin. He replaced the magazine in his hand with a new one while speaking to Hu Jin.

"Indeed, if the orcs continue to charge at this rate, then our defense line will probably be broken. After all, our unlimited resurrection ability may also be broken under large-scale deaths. Now several company commanders have been killed by the orcs. If the boss doesn't reset the resurrection point, then as long as I die, this line of defense will definitely be breached."

Hu Jin looked at Ye Fan beside him. He turned on the cooling function of the plasma pistol in his hand. Looking at the plasma pistol that was constantly emitting high temperatures in his hand, Hu Jin nodded to Ye Fan. Although their Second Regiment's fighting style was relatively reckless, they would still use their brains when facing some enemies. They would analyze the situation on the battlefield and make reasonable tactical arrangements. On those battlefields that were obviously problematic, the Second Regiment's tactics would often change from those brainless and reckless tactics to the tactical strategies of the traversers.

For example, in the current situation, it is time for the Second Regiment to start thinking. In this situation, the orcs are obviously in the upper hand, and it is impossible for them to use the reckless tactics to fight the orcs head-on. If their boss is still here, they will not have such concerns at all. However, the current situation is that Wang Ming is gathering intelligence somewhere in this world. The Second Regiment also tried to contact Wang Ming, but for some reason, their personal terminals were interfered with by something, and they were completely unable to get in touch with Wang Ming. In the current situation, it is impossible for Hu Jin to use resurrection teleportation to communicate with Wang Ming.

After all, if Hu Jin died, then this front line would really be impossible to defend. If the antimatter bomb fell into the hands of the orcs, then this matter would be extremely serious. So now the traversers of the second group can only make tactical arrangements, relying on the wreckage of the transport ship, and counting the remaining weapons in their hands. After all, without Wang Ming's supplies, the weapons and ammunition in their hands are limited. The weapons and ammunition they are using now were all moved from the wreckage of the transport ship, but the weapons and ammunition in the wreckage of the transport ship are always limited, and those weapons and ammunition will not last long under the current high-intensity war situation.

“This is really the first time I feel bad about ammunition.”

Hu Jin looked at the report on the weapons and ammunition in his hand. He looked at the report on the weapons and ammunition recorded on a steel plate in his hand. They only had a few basic explosive bombs left, and there were only two basic types of high-powered weapons. There was no shortage of ammunition for energy weapons, and there was even a small reactor on the transport ship that could be used. It's just that most of the energy weapons in their hands were plasma weapons. If these things were used too much, they were very likely to overheat. Although these plasma weapons in their hands were Astartes versions manufactured based on federal creations, these things were not real federal creations suitable for mortal bodies after all, but Astartes weapons manufactured by the First Engineer Corps through federal creations. These things would still overheat under high-intensity use.

Hu Jin stared at the report in his hand with a frown. After thinking for a while, Hu Jin directly threw away the steel plate in his hand that recorded the ammunition base.

"Everyone! After the ammunition is used up, we will engage in close combat with the aliens with bayonets! We, the Second Regiment, are not afraid of anyone in close combat! Let these ancient orcs from the War in Heaven see that humans are not weaker than them!!"

After throwing away the steel plate in his hand, Hu Jin directly drew out the power sword from his waist, and then his loud voice spread throughout the battlefield. After hearing Hu Jin's words, all the traversers from the second regiment took out their power swords. They looked at the ancient orcs rushing towards them, clenched the power swords in their hands, and prepared to feel the battle from the War in Heaven era.
