I can find treasures in my dreams.

Gong Shicheng's shout of "Fire!" immediately triggered a metal storm.

The weapons operators of each Azure Eagle completed the lock-on operation at top speed.

That is, by using a smart tactical helmet, the target coordinates can be directly obtained, and then the parameters can be input into the weapon system using a metal neural network.

With just a little training, you can do it in 0.1 seconds.

The operator then only needs to do one thing—confirm firing using the metal nerve.

The entire launch process can be completed without moving a single finger.

Compared to the fire control systems of armed helicopters before the era of natural disasters, it is much faster.

This is just one example of the advancements in military technology in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Woo~wu~"

A great roar of wind erupted.

More than twenty guided rockets, trailing pale blue flames, quickly exceeded twice the speed of sound.

The trails stretched rapidly for more than two kilometers before crashing into the area where the drone lost contact.

"boom!"

"boom!"

The explosion sounded extremely muffled, as if it had occurred underground.

A strange sight appeared.

At the point of each rocket explosion, hundreds of bright, crimson jets emerged, creating a spectacular and dazzling sight.

Each jet shot out nearly 150 meters in an instant, and after penetrating the obstacles it encountered, it was severely attenuated and turned dark red.

The jet flew another 100 meters or so before disappearing.

This is the psionic weapon that Da Xia developed last year—the high-energy jet projectile.

As mutated creatures grow stronger, traditional weapons have repeatedly proven to be less and less effective against them.

Today, the military weapons of the Great Xia have fully entered the era of psionic weapons.

High-energy jet projectiles, as the name suggests, transform the supernatural energy released by an explosion into a jet of extremely high intensity, thus causing greater destructive power.

next moment.

Kong Bo shouted, his voice filled with shock: "Report! The paranormal spectrum scanning radar has detected 113 paranormal life forms!"

The so-called "supernatural life form" is undoubtedly the invading swarm of poisonous ants.

The fact that so many poisonous ants were hidden in the forest and were not detected by radar is enough to show that they have special means to significantly reduce the supernatural spectrum.

While issuing the order, Kong Bo quickly transmitted the target information to the intelligent data link, sharing it with every soldier in the formation.

"Give it your all!"

Gong Shicheng felt a chill run down his spine and roared again.

"Woo~wu~"

More whooshing sounds followed.

Each Azure Eagle launched more than twenty rockets in succession, totaling more than one hundred.

The intelligent data link automatically assigns an attack target to each rocket, minimizing duplicate attacks and maximizing the strike effect.

Kong Bo took a moment to check the target parameters scanned by the radar.

The energy levels of ant colonies varied greatly, with the highest and lowest differing by more than five times.

The intelligent system also provided an assessment: "The high-energy jet has a certain killing effect, but it cannot kill the target, suggesting that the target has extremely strong defenses."

He glanced at it and looked surprised.

Hold the grass!

The original monster was truly monstrous!
One second passed.

Kong Bo then observed that each target seemed to sense being locked on and began to run wildly in different directions.

Scanning radar data shows that their running speed reached a maximum of 280 kilometers per hour, and the slowest was 260 kilometers per hour.

The guided rockets all veered off course and sped past their respective targets.

Without thinking, Kong Bo shouted, "The ant swarm is dodging the rocket; they're incredibly fast!"

With their speed and agility in traversing mountains and valleys, the hit rate of poisonous ants is probably not high.

In fact, he didn't need to shout it out; everyone saw the calculation results through the intelligent data chain—the hit rate was expected to be 13%.

Although high-energy jet projectiles are area-of-effect attacks, the more accurate the landing point, the more jets hit, and the higher the damage will be.

Conversely, the lethality is naturally greatly reduced.

Everyone looked serious.

The ferocity displayed by the ant swarms shook the soldiers' strong confidence in "our possession of epoch-making advanced weapons."

This battle will be very difficult!
Gong Shicheng's pupils twitched as he looked at the suggestions automatically given by the intelligent decision-making system in the tactical helmet's field of vision.

"Based on the information currently available, there is a 98% probability that the target is a 'black rock ant'."

"Black Rock Ants have extremely strong defenses and move very quickly. First-class and second-class psionic weapons have little effect on them."

"Black rock ants are not very resistant to mental attacks and have low resistance to sonic attacks."

Recommendation: Immediately use the 'Thunder Hammer' sonic weapon.

"Special reminder: No warrior-level black rock ants have been found yet, but the probability of warrior-level black rock ants existing is over 95%. Due to the lack of information on warrior-level black rock ants, the system cannot provide any advice. Please remain highly vigilant."

Gong Shicheng surveyed the battlefield and decisively issued his first order: "All personnel, ascend to altitude. The altitude must not be lower than three kilometers!"

"Yes!"

This is in preparation for the possible emergence of warrior black rock ants.

Black rock ants are venomous ants that lack the ability to fly, so increasing altitude can maximize the safety of the formation.

"Boom! Boom!"

The second wave of rockets exploded.

One after another, jets of water burst forth, adding a unique touch to this mountain forest.

As expected, the rocket attack was ineffective, and not a single black rock ant was killed.

However, it was not entirely ineffective; the energy index of most targets decreased.

The largest black rock ant had lost nearly 50% of its weight, indicating that it had suffered a very serious injury.

Gong Shicheng then issued a second order: "Everyone retreat. Launch sixty rockets in ten seconds, twelve of which will be replaced with Thunder Hammer sonic rockets."

The Azure Eagle has a very large carrying capacity, so it can carry a wide variety of weapons.

"Yes!"

Gong Shicheng's order contained a little trickery.

"Retreating" is a way to feign weakness, lure the black rock ant colony to chase after them, and lower their guard.

The claim that "twelve stones were replaced with thunder hammers" is a deceptive trick.

If the black rock ant colony becomes complacent and careless, it may mistake this for another wave of rockets, and suffer a great loss if caught off guard.

Ten seconds later.

The third wave of rockets was launched as scheduled.

The six Azure Eagles retreated even faster, as if preparing to flee.

As the black rock ant swarm dispersed to avoid the attack, their pursuit intensified.

Subsequently.

The Thunder Hammer exploded with a deafening roar.

"Boom! Boom!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it had a peculiar quality that seemed to reach deep into one's soul.

Even though the soldiers were two kilometers apart and wearing special soundproofing devices, they still felt a bit dizzy. "Thump...thump..." The sound echoed in their souls like waves, seemingly without end.

The black rock ants performed even worse.

They were like drunkards; their running speed dropped by 90% and their running route became erratic.

This indicates that the supernatural sound waves from the thunder hammers severely affected their mobility.

Gong Shicheng's lips curled into a smile: "Success!"

Without hesitation, he shouted, "Give these beasts a few 'chubby little ones'!"

The so-called "Little Fatty" is a nickname given by the soldiers; its official name is the Heavy Explosive Jet.

The jets released by this thing have a kill range of an astonishing one kilometer, with more than ten thousand jets, each jet having more than twenty times the energy.

Because of its weight of two tons, each Azure Eagle only carries one small, chubby dog.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Accompanied by several loud claps of thunder, huge fireworks exploded on the ground.

The intelligent data chain identifies the optimal deployment location, maximizing the kill effect.

Hundreds of weak jets even reached the vicinity of the formation, only to be blocked by the copper shield.

Kong Bo exclaimed with delight, "Lieutenant Colonel, the spectrum of 62 targets has completely disappeared, and the energy index of other targets has dropped drastically."

"The spectrum disappears" means it has been eliminated.

A significant drop in energy levels indicates a serious injury.

With great joy, Gong Shicheng issued his fourth command: "Eliminate the remaining Black Rock Ants."

"Yes!"

ten minutes later.

The battle is over.

Only about twenty black rock ants escaped; the rest were all killed.

Gong Shicheng looked down at the battlefield, feeling a mix of regret and relief.

Unfortunately, the warrior black rock ant suggested by the intelligent decision-making system has still not appeared.

But he had a strange intuition that the warrior Black Rock Ants were lurking in a corner of the battlefield, quietly observing the formation.

This is very likely a calm and dangerous guy.

Fortunately, the formation doesn't have to face the warrior black rock ants, greatly improving its safety.

Gong Shicheng shouted again, "Release the 'flying locusts'!"

The so-called "flying locust" is a medium-sized drone that incorporates many cutting-edge technologies.

Its own weight is only 300 kilograms, including the supercrystal battery, and its load capacity is as high as 2.8 tons, which is truly impressive.

The Locust has six robotic arms, which can be used for battlefield rescue as well as to pick up items on the ground, so the Azure Eagle does not need to land, greatly improving its safety.

Each Azure Eagle deployed a locust drone.

They moved nimbly across the battlefield, first using robotic arms to grab the spoils, then netting them with a hanging net, spraying them with a layer of anti-corrosion gel, then wrapping them with a special film, and finally sending them into the cargo hold at the rear of the Azure Eagle.

The entire process is automated; as long as the target information is entered, the locust can complete the task automatically.

Not long after.

Loot collected.

Because there were too many corpses, the cargo hold couldn't hold them all, so some of the corpses were hung on hooks on the belly of the aircraft, looking like dried chickens hanging under the eaves of a farmhouse.

Gong Shicheng gave the final order: "Return to port!"

The Azure Eagle fleet quickly flew to the exit of the space island, and as large ripples spread, the formation disappeared from sight.

Another ten minutes passed.

The formation successfully landed at a makeshift base.

Gong Shicheng soon learned some news, and his good mood vanished instantly: "Of the ten formations that participated in this mission, a total of sixty Azure Eagles, five were lost, eleven more were damaged, fifty-two soldiers were killed, and twenty-two were wounded."

The formidable nature of the Black Sand Sea Poison Ant is thus evident.

His superior, General Zhang, sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. If we want to gain experience in dealing with primordial monsters, we have to pay the price in blood."

“Every civilization has sacrificed many people in the process of growing up, and the Azure Civilization is no exception, so now it is our military’s turn to step up.”

Gong Shicheng suddenly saluted: "General, I request to participate in the next mission."

General Zhang smiled and said, "Xiao Gong, you are the best commander among the ten squadrons. You are worthy of having worked with Mr. Lingya."

Gong Shicheng's lips twitched slightly upon hearing this.

"Snapped!"

General Zhang patted him on the shoulder and continued, "But we desperately need you to share your experience with the other commanders, because your experience can help more people survive, so you can't go to the battlefield for the time being."

Gong Shicheng sighed and said, "Alright."

The lieutenant colonel thought for a moment and then asked, "Are Mr. Raven and Mr. Ghost involved in this North Island War?"

If one's own top experts were to participate in the battle, the military's casualties would undoubtedly be greatly reduced.

General Zhang replied, "I will participate! However, the main battlefield for the two big shots is not the spatial maze, but the extremely dangerous Black Sand Sea. But the Spirit Raven Boss has already gathered a group of Spirit Ravens, and they will soon enter the battlefield."

He gently pushed Gong Shicheng's back: "Little Gong, you should go and rest first."

*
The Black Sand Sea of ​​Death.

Yang Fan, in his Ghost form, commanded the powerful Overlord Legion, moving swiftly beneath the sand.

Today it is today.

The number of Centipede Overlord War Spirits controlled by the Tiger Talisman of the Sacred Artifact Legion has swelled to an astonishing 160.

This is an incredibly powerful force that would make even a knight tremble.

At this point, the limit of the sacred artifact's capacity to accommodate battle spirits has exceeded 90%.

Yang Fan did not intend to subdue the Centipede Overlord. With the remaining space, he planned to create a knight-level battle spirit.

Despite the immense difficulty, he still wanted to give it a try.

After half an hour.

With a thought, Yang Fan unleashed a powerful aura from all twelve centipede tyrants.

On the surface of the sand layer tens of meters above, in an area of ​​more than five square kilometers, many poisonous ants began to flee in panic.

Although various poisonous ants roam around like possessed during the era of ant plagues, they will immediately avoid truly terrifying predators.

in the sky.

The guardian of the Iron Fist civilization watched as swarms of poisonous ants fled, a hint of envy flashing in his metallic eyes.

As a powerful knight, he did try to use his rank-based pressure to disperse the swarm of poisonous ants.

However, the effect was the opposite; the ant swarm seemed to be able to recognize the presence of outsiders and would often become even more frenzied.

A few seconds later.

Yang Fan stood on a centipede tyrant and slowly emerged from beneath the sand.

The guardian floated down and greeted them first: "Lord Azure Ghost!"

Among people with superpowers of the same level, the weaker one greets the stronger one first; that's the rule.

Yang Fan nodded and said, "Your Excellency, Guardian."

The Guardian first announced an important message: "The Iron Fist world and the Black Sand Sea have experienced a dimensional fusion, and both regions have been submerged in the Black Sand Sea, resulting in many deaths."

Yang Fan immediately showed surprise.

Dimensional fusion is a rare event, so the fact that it happened simultaneously in two civilizations is clearly not a coincidence. (End of Chapter)
