The Void Walker in American Comics.

Chapter 437 Action
At this time, in the team preparing to go out for exploration, except for the fully armed Kryptonians, the others have also upgraded their weapons to new ones.

"I heard that this melta gun is a new type of weapon developed based on those beams."

A Marine raised Zhou Zhong's huge gun, his face full of eagerness to try.

The Human Empire has melta weapons, and the melta cannon is one of them, but this is the first time they have seen this technology used in firearms.

Moreover, the power of this melta gun is no less powerful than the melta cannon in the past. It can be said that as long as they are not surrounded, they can easily eliminate all the alien insects they encounter.

“Yes, it was based on the light beams shot out from the eyes of General Zod and his men that we developed this new type of melta gun.

And it’s not just the melta gun, these weapons are all new weapons derived from it.”

In addition to the melta guns, they also have a large number of melta bombs. Even if faced with a small insect swarm, these melta bombs can quickly destroy it.

"Come to think of it, General Zod and his men's equipment seems to be more advanced than ours."

Although there were only a few Kryptonians following the team, the equipment they wore was seen by everyone.

Compared to their slightly bloated-looking power armor, the Kryptonians' weapons are obviously more symmetrical, and the power contained in them is beyond their reach.

Although their armor can provide them with tremendous strength, allowing them to easily do many things that the flesh cannot do, it becomes so insignificant when compared with the Kryptonians.

"I wonder when we'll have this kind of power armor."

Some people said enviously that the Kryptonians' power armor was more like the result of a technologically advanced civilization, while they looked like a group of toys made of metal.

The Kryptonians had no idea what the humans were thinking, they just felt very comfortable right now.

The armor they wear is just Krypton's lowest-level combat protective suit, which is used to protect themselves.

However, now a special device has been installed in their combat protective suits, which can fill the power of energy crystals into the entire armor, allowing their bodies to be immersed in the power of energy crystals.

"With this armor, we can continue to improve our abilities even if we join the exploration team."

A Kryptonian said in surprise, this feeling of being immersed in the power of the energy crystal is so good that he can't stop.

After all, this feeling of increasing strength is something no one would want to stop.

hum~
Suddenly, a long beep was heard in the base, and Captain Locke's voice rang out in the base.

"The exploration team is ready to set off. Whether it's for the hatred between us and the Zerg or for our future actions, the Zerg must be eliminated."

"For humanity!!!"

Everyone on the exploration team shouted loudly, their voices echoing throughout the heavens and earth.

As if infected by their emotions, several Kryptonians in the exploration team also raised their hands and roared.

They had been told by Zod's standoff that the zerg might not be a formidable foe, but they were the most threatening.

This special ability to acquire the enemy's genes and evolve accordingly is the fundamental reason why they wear combat protective clothing. They will never leave anything related to Kryptonian genes to those alien insects.

After a roar, the exploration team began to move outward. This time their mission was very simple.

In addition to searching for traces of the alien insects, we also need to look for more mineral veins.

This planet will become the cornerstone of their return to the Koprulu Sector. Perhaps when they return to the Koprulu Sector, they will be in a more powerful posture.

The crowd walked away, and the base returned to its original busy state.

Now Captain Loken has made a plan. Although they don't have the blueprints for more powerful weapons and equipment, they can exchange some special technologies with the Kryptonians.

After all, Kryptonians attach great importance to psionic energy and modular machinery, which is an important basis for their cooperation.

The Kryptonians, led by General Zod, didn't care about it. What really mattered to them was the Kryptonian Codex. As for the exchanged Kryptonian technologies, they were nothing to them.

After all, the technologies that have been analyzed now are all just basic technologies. If Krypton is still there, these technologies can only be used in people’s daily lives.

It is not a loss for them to exchange this cheap technology with humans. At least they can build a spaceship of their own as soon as possible.

After the transaction is completed, they can take this spaceship to find a planet that is more suitable for survival and transform it into a new Krypton.

"General, we have obtained the modular technology. Now we can start."

The only remaining scientist on Krypton said slowly that they used some of their basic technology to exchange modular technology with humans. If they could integrate this technology into Krypton's technology, they would be able to start work more quickly in the future.

"Then let's get started. The progress of restoring Krypton's technology cannot be delayed. The sooner the transaction is completed, the sooner we can start rebuilding Krypton."

"understand!"

General Zod talked with the scientists. Krypton already had a future path. They didn't need to rob anything. As long as they completed the transaction, they could get the Kryptonian Secret Code and rebuild Krypton.

This is the first time General Zod has been so close to New Krypton since its destruction.

"In the future, Krypton's reputation will once again spread throughout the universe, and we will once again ascend the throne of the universe's overlord. This time, Krypton will never be destroyed!"

The beautiful imagination of the future is appearing in General Zod's mind.

……

One month later

After a month of rapid travel, the exploration team arrived at a valley.

"Is this right here?"

Looking at the towering valley in front of him, the captain of the first tactical team, who served as the leader of the exploration team, said softly.

They have discovered some traces of alien insect remains these days, and all those traces point to this place, but he always feels that something is wrong with this place.

"Is this the Zerg base? It shouldn't be so easy. And even though this valley looks dark and gloomy, it's too quiet inside, isn't it?"

There was something wrong with this valley. Not only him as the captain, but even the team members under him were a little confused about this.

Although the Zerg are controlled by the Overlord, the Overlord does not do everything by himself. As living creatures, the Zerg are not cold machines. How could there not be even the slightest sound in their own base?
With this in mind, the captain walked towards a Kryptonian.

"We need your help. Is there something wrong with this valley?" They couldn't find any problem, so they could only ask the Kryptonians for help. After living together for so long, they already knew that the Kryptonians had the ability of clairvoyance.

Now they need the Kryptonians' ability of perspective. After all, the situation in this valley is too weird, weirder than any other situation they have encountered along the way. Especially when this valley is related to the Zerg, they have to be on guard.

"Okay, I'll go take a look!"

The Kryptonian agreed to the other party's request, soared into the sky, and flew into the air to look at the valley.

After turning on his ability of perspective, he could see everything in the valley. Just as the captain thought, there were a large number of ferocious alien insects hidden under the seemingly peaceful valley.

All of these alien insects are lurking underground, ready to break out of the ground at any time and destroy all intruders in one fell swoop.

After confirming the situation in the valley, the Kryptonian slowly landed on the ground. He looked at the captain with a serious face and told him everything he had seen and heard.

"There is indeed a problem here. Everyone, prepare the melta bombs. Let's blow up this valley!"

Faced with a huge number of alien insects, they were not prepared to go in, but dropping thermal bombs in the valley was still possible.

Everyone in the exploration team took out all the melta bombs on their bodies. This was a valley, so naturally a large number of melta bombs were needed to cover it.

After taking out all the melta bombs and making a simple cluster bomb, everyone in the exploration team laughed sinisterly.

Those alien insects actually wanted to ambush and attack them, but they didn't know that they had already discovered the problem. Next, these insidious alien insects will receive their warm hospitality.

"Prepare... to launch!"

Following the captain's order, two Marines activated the launcher and fired the cluster bomb into the valley.

boom!
The magazine of the cluster bomb exploded in the air, and the melta bombs waiting to be activated inside were thrown into the valley like raindrops, gradually turning into flames in the air and covering the entire valley.

Boom boom boom...

The melta bomb exploded the moment it hit the ground. The flames, powerful enough to burn through metal, enveloped the entire valley. The solid ground could not hold out for long before turning into scorching molten lava.

The alien insects lurking underground were forced to come out at this moment, but no matter what, they were all seriously injured.

Some Zerg with heavy armor are not so bad. Although the melta bombs are terrible, it will take some time to burn through their armor.

But those alien insects with only a thin layer of bone armor suffered the most. The flames that were powerful enough to burn through metal and stone caused great damage to them. Many alien insects were instantly reduced to ashes in the flames.

Even those alien insects that were still alive were not feeling well, their bodies were covered with burn scars.

Some of the alien insects even had half of their bodies burned through, and could only move with difficulty by dragging the tattered wreckage.

As for some of the alien insects, not only their bodies, but even the limbs that allowed them to move were burned and melted. They still looked alive, but they were no different from dead.

"Once the flames are out, clean up the valley immediately!"

"understand!"

There is no doubt about the power of the melta bomb, and even the exploration team itself cannot resist such power. They can only wait for the flames released by the melta bomb to extinguish automatically before entering the valley to explore.

Fortunately, although the power of the hot melt bomb is huge, if there is no combustible material, the flames will go out soon.

So everyone in the exploration team was waiting, waiting for the fire in the valley to go out.

After a long time, the roar in the valley and the whistling sound of the burning flames finally subsided.

The captain was silent for a moment before giving the order.

"Prepare to enter the valley. Be aware of the surroundings. The Zerg that can survive the burning of the melta bomb are all very powerful, so everyone must be careful."

In fact, even if the captain didn't remind us, everyone understood the danger.

If there are still living Zerg in the valley, they will indeed be a difficult enemy to deal with. After all, the Zerg that can withstand the damage caused by the melta bombs can be imagined by anyone who is not stupid.

The exploration team moved forward slowly, and the Kryptonians in the air were also looking around to prevent any alien insect attacks.

After entering the valley, their progress became slower. Although the flames of the melta bombs had been extinguished, the melted valley had not cooled down. In some places, one could even see bright red molten lava.

Not long after, the exploration team stopped. There was no road in front of them, only the flowing lava.

Seeing the team on the ground stop, the Kryptonians flying in the air also understood what they meant.

Although humans' power armor is good, they can't last long in this lava zone, so they need to cool down the area, at least to allow the exploration team to pass through.

Call ~
Several Kryptonians blew hard, and their breath turned into strong winds that swept through the valley. The fierce wind took away the scorching temperature of the valley, and the lava that was still emitting red light quickly cooled down and turned into black crystals.

"let's go!"

Following the captain's voice, the exploration team set off again. They moved forward slowly and cautiously, always on guard against any alien insects that might survive.

……

"I don't know how the exploration team is doing now, but the reports sent in these days are normal. There shouldn't be any major problems."

Captain Locke looked at the base outside which was constantly working. They still had too few people. If there were enough people, they wouldn't have to be so stretched.

"We need more people. With us alone, it is already the limit to send out an exploration team, and this is still the case with the help of Mr. Moon and General Zod."

"But we are not in the Koprulu Sector, so it's not that easy to get replenishment!" replied a senior member of the transport ship.

They are in an unknown star region where there is no trace of humans at all, and they have no way to replenish their personnel.

Although these people can also reproduce and increase the population.

But they are human beings, not Zerg, and cannot reproduce as quickly as Zerg and quickly form a strong fighting force.

It takes them ten months to give birth, and then at least a dozen years to grow into someone who can participate in the mission. Even if they do so, they cannot immediately replenish the shortage of manpower.

"I understand..." Captain Locke shook his head. "It's just that we are extremely short of personnel. This is obvious to all. After all, machines cannot replace human labor in many places."
