Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 525 524. Let me show you what courageous people do!

No matter how much data the mercenary system has to support its reasons, should we kill everyone just for such a "possibility" to make a plug-and-play memory card?

Some people may be very happy, but most people’s first reaction is disapproval.

There were even protests from mercenaries who had already been recruited - but that was beside the point. The mercenary system had already decided and was currently implementing it, and no one would refuse.

As the Navigator continued to move deeper into the area filled with strange energy, the situation outside was no longer as lively as it used to be.

The time limit has expired, and seeing that those companies have no intention of retreating, the mercenary system ordered all aircraft carriers to open fire without hesitation.

What was originally just a small area of defense instantly turned into a full-line battle. Those flying things in the sky were indeed not just for show. The density of firepower they projected was enough to make even the bravest mercenaries unable to raise their heads.

On the front battlefield, the company's forces were not defeated, but retreated thousands of miles. The front line could not withstand that kind of firepower - so they could only look to the rear.

After the aerial firepower was put into use, the intensity of the battle between the two sides reached a new level. The dense firepower network even made the polar night of this season as bright as day.

I don’t know if the mercenaries were sweating profusely, but if the independent mercenary support system had sweat glands, it would probably start sweating profusely.

Because just when both sides were in a tense situation, the rocky ground below suddenly cracked, and in the midst of the shaking like an earthquake, a [worm] suddenly rushed out from the sunken crack.

It rose into the sky with a harsh sound of metal rubbing against rock, carrying a large amount of rubble and dust, like a hunter lying in ambush underground.

It was full of high-speed rotation, and even rocks deep in the earth could be easily crushed, not to mention the armor plates that needed to be adjusted in proportion and reduced in weight for aviation.

The moment the two sides came into contact, the warship that had been projecting flames in the air was immediately bitten in the middle. It exploded in vain, emitting flames that were difficult to look at, and then broke in the middle like a fish that was bitten.

The rising flames and dust continued to spray out. These newly acquired materials would be reforged by the [worm] and then sent out as drones using the manufacturing factory in its body.

...In addition to drones, there were also a large number of various firepower attacks. This [worm] immediately turned the tide of the battle, giving other companies some breathing space.

The mercenary system naturally has ways to deal with this kind of thing - this is how the frontal battlefield is, the fight is difficult to determine, but it cannot be said that the two sides are evenly matched.

No matter which side has a loophole in its defense line, it will be hit by high-yield firepower... In order to ensure that the living force can be mobilized at any time, the company forces have to find a way to provide more unmanned artillery.

With the front line in such a state, the supply lines in the rear are naturally in a mess, but these operations are not in vain.

So far, the seven vehicles that have penetrated to the extreme are advancing normally, which means that if they persist for a while longer, the mercenary system's plan will theoretically fail.

In theory.

...The Navigator, which was submerging, was very lucky. The patrol teams in the area filled with strange energy did not notice such a large object in the circle until it approached the coordinate point.

Of course, credit also goes to Sefer. He was always in front of the vehicle to clear the way, and those patrols were spotted from a distance in the sparsely populated area, so they naturally couldn't hit the car.

But this situation could not last long, because the number of patrols became more and more dense as they got closer to the coordinate area.

The patrols of the mercenary system are not crayfish. Once they find their target, they will swarm over immediately and will never stop advancing until the enemy is eliminated.

So, the company was only relieved for about a few hours before it heard the first bad news.

A stealth vehicle had been discovered and was now struggling to resist. They decided to continue attracting fire until they were destroyed, buying time for other units.

This kind of thing happened to a group of people squatting in the car. Miss Nana suddenly asked, "I've only heard of such things in stories... Is such courage the norm in the desert?"

Feldrich, who was busy preparing his weapons, suddenly glanced at her and said, "How is that possible? You, a toy, have such a strange mind." "Hey - how did I get downgraded to a toy again!"

"Because you're not smart enough to understand the implications of this matter. Tsk, where's the list of people in the car? How many times has the compensation rate increased..."

Feldrich was very unhappy about preparing the materials. What he said and what he did were completely different.

Fortunately, Shengnai gently explained to Miss Nana that this kind of behavior is actually very rare in the desert.

Because the combatants are all independent mercenaries or corporate mercenaries, fighting for money and work - no one will fight for any belief or noble cause.

But now some people have made this choice, and even choose to fight to the death when there is a chance to retreat... There is only one explanation.

The people in the car knew very well what the outcome would be if the push failed. They were determined to fight for a future with their own strength, even if they could not see such a future.

"...Is that so? So people like this should be called heroes?"

"That's what I think..."

Shengnai shook his head slightly, looking at the routes that were constantly being planned, and some words could only be swallowed back into his stomach.

She really hoped that the warring parties could sit down and have a good talk, but a little thought would tell her that this was impossible.

The different approaches to the same issue were vastly different. Even the mercenary system had become so radical that it was determined to eliminate all humans in order to continue the human race.

In this case, the so-called discussion will only turn into a mutual deterrence that will never end and produce any results, and will end in a bad mood and continue to fight.

Shengnai is just gentle in nature, not indiscriminate in his love.

At this moment, Sefer, who was advancing in front, suddenly stopped.

Then he sent a message: "Replan the route. You adjust the angle to the northwest, and I will pull to the northeast. We will meet again at the coordinate point."

The people in the car were stunned.

Unable to communicate, everyone could only watch as Seifer suddenly disappeared - and in the direction where he disappeared, in the area covered by the hazy light, something also rushed over.

It goes without saying that this was a head-on collision with the unlucky patrol team, and Sefer had to do this in order to keep the vehicle moving forward.

In his words... they were just the main body and the spare body anyway, if they were lost, they were lost, so we had to do our best to reduce the opponent's strength before losing them.

So everyone had no time and no need to adjust their route, and moved forward in the direction that Sefer had previously scouted. On the other side, Sefer, who was sprinting with the train, was in a panic and had no idea where to go.

In other words, it looks like you are panicking and attracting more enemies' attention, making it look like you are getting further and further away from the target, but in fact you are advancing along a tangent.

The firepower behind him surged like a tide, and in front of him was darkness. Under this fierce bombardment, Seifer soon realized that he was surrounded.

In front of you is a flying battleship advancing slowly, and behind you are densely packed aircraft bodies and autonomous units surrounding you. Normally, at this point, anyone would know to let go of the keyboard.

Or let go of the joystick and prepare to surrender... But Cypher did not hesitate to let the body move forward and rushed towards the floating battleship closest to him.
