This Terra is a little weird.

Chapter 130: Can you be serious?

On the vast plain, the Broadsword Sergeant was staggering around in circles, and under his feet was a smaller giant who was also staggering. If an Astartes were to see it, he would be able to recognize that the giant was wearing a suit of Iron Cavalry-type Terminator power armor.

On a rock in the distance, W was eating snacks and drinking Coke, watching two giants, one big and one small, fall down in the distance, and then stop moving after they stood up again.

W kicked Luo Chen who was sleeping beside him.

"Hurry up! Lin Guang and Mud Rock are not moving."

"Hmm?" Luo Chen opened and closed his eyes, looking full of energy.

After a long journey, they stopped on the plain to rest, and Luo Chen also planned to use his spare time to let Lin Guang try her hand at driving a broadsword squire, after all, she had learned the theoretical course very well.

But from the actual operation, Lin Guang was a little slow in mastering it. She always lost her balance in turning and changing the direction of the Destroyer Chainsaw, and fell many times.

The mudstone was actually a sudden idea of ​​Luo Chen. He had already found some Terminator power armors in the holy artifacts. These were versions that mortals could use through special neural sensing suits and built-in mechanical assistance devices.

But the problem is that the physical strength of mortals is not as strong as that of Astartes. Their bodies cannot withstand the feedback of the Terminator power armor. Therefore, the output power of these power armors is actually adjusted very small. In most cases, this kind of power armor is only used by high lords or Inquisition personnel, and in most cases it is used in conjunction with bio-transformation surgery and life extension technology. Ordinary people cannot use it.

Even if they had this version of Terminator armor, their physical strength would not allow them to wear it, because after wearing this power armor, the thoughts in their minds would be interpreted by the analyzer, which would then react immediately. The extremely high speed and huge power were unbearable for the mortal body.

Therefore, Luo Chen did not wear this thing. He could wear it, but he had to adjust the power to 15% to ensure safe use, which was not as good as the power version of the Void Armor he was equipped with.

However, Mudstone's physical strength can allow the output efficiency of the power armor to reach 42%. In other words, if Mudstone wears the Iron Cavalry Terminator, the effect will be much better than his.

So at Luo Chen's request, Niyan agreed to give it a try.

And then, she fell countless times. Mudstone didn't know how to operate it. Her nerves were transmitted to the power armor and then reacted, but she herself resisted this reaction. So, Mudstone and the power armor tortured each other, but the power armor was a dead object and it didn't hurt or feel uncomfortable.

Luo Chen originally wanted to let Mudstone give up. After all, they didn’t have much time to familiarize themselves with the operation of the Terminator.

But the Sarkaz girl said firmly that she would do nothing if she couldn't learn it.

Luo Chen was so confused that he couldn't do it anymore and had to keep reading the operating manual written by the Mechanicus. Then he was left speechless by the Mechanicus.

What is the Divine Link, what is the Thundering Foot, these strange terms forced Luo Chen to translate them into a language that adults can understand, which took a lot of time.

And Lin Guang’s situation isn’t much better, everything else is fine, but Lin Guang’s sense of balance towards the squire knight is very poor.

It was apparently very stable on land, but it failed in the cockpit.

Luo Chen wiped his face and then walked towards Mudstone and Lin Guang.

"Hey! Are you two tired? Come down and rest."

The mask on the Terminator's helmet opened, revealing Mudstone's little face: "Mr. Luo Chen, the armor seems to be locked."

"Locked?"

"Well, there's a small lock on the helmet display. How do I open it?"

“Look, there should be an unlocker in the module.

"Hum-hum."

Mudstone rummaged around in the display module and then successfully opened the Terminator's weapon lock. The assault cannon on the back popped out and was held in the power armor's hand.

"Mudrock, unlocked in the tool area."

"Oooo."

Mudstone fiddled with it for a while. She couldn't understand the High Gothic on the monitor at all, so she could only choose according to the icons, and then she successfully turned on the automatic fire command.

The Terminator immediately raised his assault gun and swept the large area in front horizontally, but Luo Chen still stood there without dodging.

At the moment when he was about to be hit, Mudrock finally unlocked the power armor, then raised the muzzle of the gun to the sky, almost making a big hole in Luo Chen's chest.

When Luo Chen came in front of him, Niyan smiled gently, with embarrassment written all over his face, and his big, dull eyes blinked.

"Hmm... Hey."

Luo Chen jumped up with all his strength and chopped Mudstone's head with a knife. "Still hey! You almost beat me to death."

"Hmm..." Mudstone pouted, his eyes misty, looking so pitiful that it was hard to bring himself to scold him.

Luo Chen opened his mouth again and again but never spoke.

You, you, you did a great job.

In the end, Luo Chen just raised his feet and touched Mudstone's little head: "Since you are working so hard, I won't care. I will adjust your armor for you. Come down first."

Then, with the help of W and Luo Chen, Mudstone took off his power armor and moved his body around.

Mudstone is now wearing a close-fitting black neural sensing suit. The gelatinous clothing perfectly outlines Mudstone's curves, especially her conscience, which makes people unable to take their eyes off her.

Anyway, Luo Chen was stunned.

He was almost beaten to death, and one morning he had to explain how to prescribe something and use it, which caused smoke to come out of his throat.

It doesn't matter anymore.

It’s a sure win, right?

W kicked Luo Chen's butt. Looking at her murderous eyes, Luo Chen swallowed and wiped the sweat guiltily.

"Well, I'll go check on Lin Guang's situation."

Then he spread his wings in front of the two men, took off, and flew in front of the knight's monitor.

"Miss Lin Guang! Can you hear me?"

"Yes, I can hear you, Mr. Luo Chen."

"How are you doing?"

"I feel so tired, and the trigger is heavy."

"Is that so? Then Miss Lin Guang, please get off the plane first and I will adjust it for you."

After a morning of experiments, Luo Chen successfully collected feedback from two people on usage issues.

Lin Guang’s actual problem is that she is not familiar with the operating system, and the control parameters of the trigger are not suitable for her, so they must be customized for Lin Guang.

The main problem with Mudstone is that she always resists the actions made in advance by the power armor, causing confusion in the module. The biggest problem is that she can't understand High Gothic. This is purely Luo Chen's fault. Luo Chen reset the language module for the Broadsword Squire, so that it can be displayed in the official language of Casimir.

However, the Terminator power armor had just been destroyed and Luo Chen had not had time to write the program. Luo Chen had no choice but to teach the words that appeared to Mudstone one by one, and then slowly program a set of Kazdel's official language and input it into the language module.

However, these two people are not the kind of students who make people worry all the time. They learn very quickly. The fact that Lin Guang went from zero foundation to full marks in theoretical courses really shocked Luo Chen for a long time.

The most unacceptable thing is that Lin Guang, a knight who was always fighting in wars, went from being a math loser like him to a genius in advanced mathematics.

According to her, she has been taking tutoring classes since she landed on Rhodes Island, because she saw that most of the other operators around her were knowledgeable, and as a knight, she was unwilling to fall behind others, so she began to study like crazy.

As long as Luo Chen adjusts the parameters of the machine for Lin Guang, I believe it won’t take long for Lin Guang to learn how to use the Broadsword Servant.

And Mudstone Luo Chen doesn't have to worry, this girl will get out of the difficulties soon, she is very smart and reacts quickly.

Afterwards, Shining and Nightingale took Lin Guang back to the mobile battleship for dinner. Luo Chen had been talking for the whole morning and was feeling dizzy and hungry, so he packed up with W and Mudstone and returned to the mobile battleship.

However, before he had time to eat, Luo Chen heard Kelsey's call, asking him to go to a meeting immediately.

"This old lynx, is he going to let me live...W, remember to save a copy for me."

"I know, go ahead."

Chapter 131 Derivatives

Luo Chen felt rather heavy-hearted when he came out of the conference room, because according to the intelligence obtained by the scouts and the Valkyrie, they were not the only large-scale forces active here.

They found traces of some marching army in the mountains to the east, but the footprints did not belong to any species known to the land of Terra.

Kal'tsit speculated that since those bugs could infect humans and become infected, they could also infect other species to replenish their own numbers.

In terms of the way these infected bodies marched, they were no less than the well-disciplined human army; their formations were not messy but rather orderly, and one could even distinguish different types of footprints.

Among those footprints, there were also footprints of some large creatures, and there were quite a few of them.

That is to say, they are facing more than just a powerful organism.

At the same time, you will also fight against armies composed of infected and aggregates.

Luo Chen thought for a long time, and finally he decided to fight the infected army first to test the waters.

Because Luo Chen believed that these armies were not only filled with infected bodies, but also derivatives of red beasts.

It can be seen from the previous battles that these infected bodies need unified leadership to form effective combat power, because the moment those flesh worms were attacked, they fell into chaos and lost the order of their previous battles.

Later, in the ashes under the city wall, the scouts found a very different insect. It was about the size of an adult's chest, and its head took up almost 80% of its body. According to the results of the autopsy, its nervous system was quite developed.

Perhaps in all the previous battles, this thing was sending signals to command the infected bodies.

Luo Chen believes that as a highly evolved high-dimensional creature, the red beast's abilities are unpredictable, but based on the current situation, the infected troops must be commanded by a special individual.

Just like node creatures.

Either the red beast directly controls the infected body, or it creates derivatives to manage it.

But Luo Chen is more inclined to the latter.

Because Luo Chen saw footprints in the photo that were different from those of other infected bodies, as if a heavily armored alien warrior was pressing down on him.

In the red beast's consciousness space, what Luo Chen felt was not any profound thoughts, but rather worldly desires, especially appetite and desire for survival.

Moreover, it seems that it does not care about its own derivatives. Perhaps in its view, these individuals independent of the main body are just tools for absorbing nutrients from the earth.

In other words, there is not a strong subordinate relationship between the Red Beast and its creations, but rather a fragile cooperative relationship, because the infected individuals are full of mutual devouring phenomena. They seem to have independent consciousness, and like the Red Beast, desire occupies their consciousness.

Luo Chen thought, maybe the red beast was not the limit of this individual. It would evolve, evolve continuously, and the individuals as its derivatives were constantly moving closer to it, and even wanted to become the red beast.

As for the actual situation, they can only wait until they come into contact with these strange creatures.

So a special reconnaissance team was immediately formed, most of whom were Kashejin soldiers, including technical experts from Agrippina Industries, demolition experts from Krieg Construction Company, etc.

The special operations team set out that evening, flying eastwards on the Thunderhawk gunship following the trail, and then landing from the Thunderhawk after a calculated distance.

They entered the mountains, looking for any sign of them, but all they found were long marching tracks.

These infected bodies are moving too fast, and now their footprints have turned to the west. It is completely unknown what their purpose is.

Until someone discovered a small footprint separated from the main group's footprint, as if some individuals had broken away from the main group and entered the mountains.

So the captain of the task force immediately ordered to go to the deep mountains to investigate. If the number of enemies is small, they can consider capturing one alive and let the technicians study it and collect as much intelligence as possible, so that at least all the soldiers know where to hit with the laser gun to effectively kill these creatures.

After a long search, they finally found something strange in a large cave.

They immediately formed a battle formation, separated and surrounded them, and then they discovered something extremely strange.

At the entrance of the cave, there were several corpses lying, four of which were humanoid creatures that had never been seen before.

"Did you see the body of the man over there?"

"Saw."

"Pull it over here, and take the corpse of a monster with you."

The Kashejin warriors used their hook guns to drag the two bodies back one by one, and then they saw the full appearance of the monster.

It has the same body shape as humans, but is slimmer and taller. Its entire body is covered in an exoskeleton, and its head is covered in a detachable bone armor. It has an extra pair of limbs growing around its waist, and is holding several bone blades.

What attracted the Kashejin warriors the most was the "gun" in its hand. They pulled it out of its hand with great effort, and then found that there were long tentacles growing from the back end of the gun, connecting to the user's arm, and when all were pulled out, it was almost as long as the forearm.

This is a biological weapon. Kashejin and others speculated that the bodies had been dead for about four hours, but the biological gun was still active.

The warriors realized that this thing could only be used by the monster in front of them. They pulled out the very obvious separation, revealing a large piece of bright red muscle. At the lower end appeared octopus-like tentacles swaying from side to side. On the smooth part above the tentacles was a honeycomb with a large number of bean-shaped objects emitting yellow fluorescence, and some grooves with nothing inside.

Roughly speaking, perhaps these are the ammunition for biological guns, because many yellow spheres were found on the armored back of this monster.

These spheres all have a pointed end, which can scratch a shallow mark on the carapace. It is hard to say whether they can penetrate the carapace at high speed, but the Kashejins have already raised their alert level to the highest level.

The Kashejins temporarily put aside their research on this thing. They knew that this thing was a threat to them. What aroused their interest was the human corpse. It was a Vaifan. He had a painful expression and his face was dark gray, which did not look like a normal human or the appearance of a human being who had died from a blow.

It is likely that there was a battle with these creatures.

So why does this person appear here?

Does he have any companions?

Captain Kashezin pulled down his collar, saw the mark on his neck, understood, and stood up.

"This person is not acting alone. Everyone, be alert! Take some photos and upload them to the headquarters. Everyone else, follow me into the cave."
