These flying insects, ranging in size from a human brain to larger than a person, dodged the flames and machine guns, broke through the incredibly accurate assault rifles, and rushed into the defense line.

Some insects crashed into the humanoid figure at high speed, while others sprayed strong corrosive liquids and biological venom from their tails as they flew through the air.

Humanoids were completely immune to impact and toxins; they simply subconsciously protected their weapons. After all, the material used in their power suits possessed incredible resistance to chemical corrosion.

After all, a table knife made of this material could withstand 200 years of exposure to corrosive environments with only a slight rust. The venom produced by the mutant crickets would, at best, only erode holes in the dust coat and cloak.

As for the ones that came crashing down on me, they were useless. I couldn't expect them to have much of an impact on the humanoids. No matter how hard they attacked, these insects couldn't break through the humanoids' defenses.

But the splashing acid mostly splashed onto the puppets and the plasma launchers they held. These launchers were not made of Saturn alloy - after all, this metal had a strong heat storage capacity, so they would be thrown away after one round.

The thicker outer shell of the launcher corroded rapidly, revealing the jumbled components within. The puppet was in a better situation, after all, its basic skeleton was also made of Saturn alloy, so it could continue to fight even after being sprayed all over.

The humanoids ordered the puppets to throw out the launchers and continue fighting with the weapons they had.

The launchers that were thrown out were still stained with corrosive liquids. Not long after they were thrown out collectively, one of them was induced to explode.

However, due to the lack of proper overload, the nuclear fusion core installed on it did not cause further damage.

The stored plasma ammunition was released with the explosion, and the hot green mist rose and spread, killing most of the subsequent insects flying over in one go.

Although no one knows what kind of chemical reaction the contents of the launcher produced, the humanoids have already made up their minds to ask Kroki of Oasis to upgrade the weapon and improve its corrosion resistance.

The armored vehicle, which had been firing diligently, was also doused in acid, rendering its machine gun's fire control and barrel useless. AK-15 punched open the armored vehicle's roof, and could only grab his assault rifle and spray water at the insects.

At the same time, the AR and Rebellious teams' humanoids pulled out their assault rifles and fired accurately, quickly eliminating the approaching insects from a distance of dozens of meters.

As for those who charged headfirst, the humanoids would smash their heads with their fists, crush their heads, or knock them to the ground with one punch.

Then they quickly stabbed the insects' heads and necks several times. The stabbing felt very smooth, and the insects died in just a few stabs.

For humans, holding these huge insects with fists or palms actually tests their psychological endurance.

But for a humanoid in combat mode, whether it is dirty or looks scary is not important. The most important thing is to kill these things quickly.

The humanoids were covered in the mucus exuded by these insects, and they exuded a strange stench. But the battle was not over yet. The humanoids checked their weapons and quickly alerted the surroundings.

The roaring creatures rushed out from a hidden angle just as the humanoids were forced into close combat. They were a dozen giant Deathclaws, nearly four meters tall, crawling on their stomachs, trying their best to reduce their exposure to bullets, and sprinting towards them at top speed.

The machine gun roared again. Sun Yang, having just seen the large number of giant insects destroyed, repaired the armored vehicle, returning it to the state it was in half an hour ago. The AK-15 immediately moved in and began firing.

The machine guns effectively blocked these Death Claws charging at high speed, and the two teams below took less than half a second to discuss the battle plan.

Those corroded and tattered puppets rushed forward, while AK12 and AN94 dragged AK15 who crawled out and wanted to go up for close combat.

"Just stay still. Do you really have to challenge this creature?!" AK12 shouted.

“…Tsk.” AK15 had no choice but to give up.

The deathclaws didn't take these fast-running humans seriously, and they swung their powerful front claws, trying to tear these creatures apart - but after the attack, they felt something was very wrong. These creatures were much tougher than the deathclaws had imagined.

The puppets, devoured by two claws, showed no sign of slowing down their movements. Instead, they climbed onto the bodies of the deathclaws, using their joint techniques to suppress the powerful creatures' joints. Legs, necks, shoulders... all were grasped by the puppets. The puppets' arms and thighs continued to exert force, quickly restricting the deathclaws' movements.

The powerful output of several machines forced these running death claws to stop. They had to take down these annoying hard humans before they could move forward.

But the humanoids didn't intend to give them a chance. Together, they overloaded the golems' nuclear fusion cores, allowing these creatures, which could thrive in high-radiation environments, to experience the beauty of explosions and excessive radiation.

"boom--!!"

Accompanied by a roar, flying metal fragments hit the humanoids' power suits and armored vehicles.

The place that was full of death claws and golems no longer had any death claws left. There was only a big hole left by the explosion.

"Is it over?" Sun Yang stepped out of the armored vehicle. He opened the window and looked around. There seemed to be no moving creatures around. When he saw the dead insects scattered all over the ground, his feet felt weak.

To be honest, he had fought too many giant spiders and had become immune to them, but these enlarged insects of various sizes... Sun Yang really couldn't handle it.

It's okay when I'm playing games, but when I really have to face it myself, the psychological barrier is still too much to overcome. Damn, how can there be maggots the size of my arm? Alpaca.

Because of this, Sun Yang had little fighting power in this battle. He could only say that he was disgusted by bugs and was afraid of them, a habit he couldn't change for a while.

As a human who has no reliable AOE, can't hit accurately, and is afraid of insects, Sun Yang decisively took the most correct action - find a safe place to squat down, instead of running out to show off his strength.

"I think it's over. But a Death Claw that can command surrounding creatures...why is there all this messed up shit in this world?" M4 shook his coat, which was covered in tissue fluid left over from killing insects. "Rather than that, let's clean ourselves up first? Or do you like the sight of girls covered in slime?"

"...I'll go prepare the cleaning supplies." Feeling that admitting it here would definitely lead to social death, Sun Yang checked the car and went around to see where he could find the cleaning equipment.

"Uh... really, it's a bit disgusting." AK12 didn't think much of it at first, but when M4 said that, his face turned gloomy. "No, I'm not talking about the tissue fluid. I don't care. I'm talking about M4. M4, think about it, is this something that humans or humanoids can think about? Your statement is so blatant, it may confuse the commander..."

"I think... first of all, I'm not human. I shouldn't need to be bound by human morals and rules. And you probably don't know much about Yang and I's relationship. These are just little episodes to balance things out. Life always needs some novelty. Anyway, don't worry, if he really doesn't want to, he'll definitely say it out loud. And I think Yang enjoys it, too."

M4 said this with a hint of pride, crossing her arms complacently.

"Are you sure? I know as much about humans as you do, but by human standards, I think... you are also very exaggerated." AK12 considered his words.

"..." RO and 16, who were quite knowledgeable about humans, remained silent. They had witnessed this level of XP countless times. What they were talking about... well, it was not uncommon. However, they did not participate in the discussion.

RO didn't want to reveal her knowledge; she really didn't want to get involved in this kind of conversation. And 16 simply found it too much trouble.

"This is all very common. AK12, haven't you seen a couple in love? This is what they call 'a short separation makes the heart grow fonder'!" M4 remained completely unmoved.

"Well, M4, let's cut to the chase. We're already embarrassed enough, let's not embarrass ourselves any further. Let's just talk about this in private," Gouzi stood up and poked M4. "M4, your thoughts lately have been really speechless. Even I've been speechless many times. Of course, it's mainly because it's a bit embarrassing to say it out loud..."

"I think what Gouzi said makes some sense... I think your ideas are all pretty good, but, you know, we should just communicate internally. I'm mainly worried that AK12 won't be able to resist and will try to improve their relationship with the commander." AR15 glanced at his old teammate, whose mind was becoming increasingly confused.

"One by one of you, I really am, I'm telling you, have you really considered the commander's thoughts...uh!" AK12 was about to say something else when he was grabbed by the neck by AK15.

"You've crossed the line, AK12. Don't meddle in other people's business. Also, stop talking so much nonsense and being so noisy. Mind your own business. The relationship between the AR team and the commander is not your concern." AK15's voice was as low as ever.

"AK15, even you say that? I can't stand it anymore... Okay, okay, indeed," AK12 tore off the messy goo from his helmet and threw it to the ground. "I really can't control your messy tendencies. As long as it doesn't affect the battle or me, it's fine. But next time, please be more restrained. Forget about us old acquaintances, but don't tell a bunch of humans that you want to have sex with the Commander. That's really, really embarrassing."

"Hey! I know what to do and where to do it! If this place wasn't full of radiation, I would open it right now! But think about it, if all this was caused by Yang..." M4 was not angry at all, but shook his coat excitedly.

"Oh, my ears. There's something wrong with my sound system and emails. I can't hear anything. Commander? Commander?! Help me check it later." AK12 decisively chose not to listen.

"Speaking of which, where's the Commander?" RO quickly changed the subject. She was also beginning to find the presence of so much tissue fluid on her body strange, even though it was clearly the enemy's blood.

"I'm here. I heard everything you just said clearly. You don't intend to avoid me at all, right?" Sun Yang stretched out his hands to build a simple cleaning cubicle. "Of course, I'm very happy that you don't avoid me. Ahem, and as for personal matters, let's talk about it after we're done. Now is not the right time."

"Here, you see, this is the tacit agreement." M4 said confidently.

"I don't trust you," AK12 retorted, quickly dragging his teammate to wash the liquid off his body. Although it was only splashed on the power suit, it still needed to be cleaned.

297 Iron Guard Outpost

Although Sun Yang seemed to have heard something very shocking, he was willing to keep a calm mind and just laugh it off.

After all, who hasn't made some outrageous statements? I've even blurted out the impossible-to-do nonsense of wanting to kill everyone in the world.

All I can say is that we should be considerate and respectful of each other. Just laugh it off and let it go. Don't take it personally. There are plenty of people in this world who love to talk big. Really, why can't we just let people talk big for once?

Everyone in the AR team has always been good kids. Even if they have established good relationships, even if there are some things that are a little bit weird, they won’t be that exaggerated. We are not young anymore and are still familiar with basic common sense.

Then Sun Yang stopped the dog who wanted to take off his power suit and tried to take advantage of the good atmosphere as an excuse to have a go.

Verbally criticize AR15 for trying to strip his clothes with the excuse that "your clothes are dirty too and I need to wash them."

as well as......

"Mingmingyang, you like it very much! Do you have to wash it off?!" M4 made such a statement.

"Stop talking nonsense, it stinks." Sun Yang's face was tense as he used a high-pressure water gun to rinse M4's power suit from top to bottom for a long time. Then he repaired the power suit with one shot.

"The history of this dress...is gone..." M4 said with a sense of loss.

"Get in the car!" Sun Yang couldn't help but pat M4's butt. However, through the power suit, he couldn't feel it at all; it was completely hard.

I can only say that sometimes we still need to understand each other.

RO and Brother 16 took turns driving, and the armored vehicle sped across the yellow, dry land.

We didn't encounter any strange creatures this time. Although the radiation in the entire glowing sea was still extremely high, this area returned to peace.

Probably due to the battle between the Deathclaws and the humanoids just now, all the living creatures in the area that could still move were killed.

As time gradually approached noon, the sun could not even penetrate the thick fog above, and could only provide a little hazy light.

Occasionally, through the window, you can see the ruins of a huge building in the distance.

Comparing it to Curie's pre-war database, the building was a nuclear reactor, but after being detonated by a nuclear bomb, it could only continuously release decaying energy.

After driving for a distance along a road that was barely in decent condition, they were getting closer and closer to their destination.

After bypassing a crashed plane and a factory area, the armored vehicle finally found a huge base that looked like a pyramid structure at dusk.

"I think this is it." The RO parked the car, and the humanoids filed out. The heavy metal gate at the entrance to the base was quickly cracked open. Several humanoids worked together to pull it open, while the others activated the scanning module and cautiously advanced.

After passing through a somewhat long corridor and opening several explosion-proof doors, the two teams finally entered the long-sealed base.

Compared to the outside world, the environment inside this base was much better. After Sun Yang confirmed that the electromagnetic environment here was still good, he transferred dozens of drones, some of which were assigned to the humanoids for reconnaissance, while the other parts were taken over by the Trans-World Oasis, who were assigned to carefully study the devices that needed inspection.

Accompanied by a slight beeping sound, the drone flew deeper. This base should be a launch site, with metal railings and hollow iron plates erected along the edge of the wall.

You can go down to the bottom layer step by step along the metal stairs. You can see many things like observation platforms along the way.

At the center of the building stood several steel supports that had stood for centuries. The figures had unlocked the door without triggering the alarm, and the entire base remained silent. It was like a tomb.

But in the center of the tomb, through the drone cameras, the figures could discern the patterns of warheads mounted on scaffolds.

"These are nuclear missile warheads, all of them." AK12 had the drone fly around the scaffolding, filming. "We need the assistance of an engineering figure. We can't remove these. We need specialized tools."

"Are these missiles that haven't been launched yet? The number of them, just those on the racks, is more than the missiles in the Great Rift Valley... The bases in the Great Rift Valley are almost completely destroyed, but this one seems to be still intact?" RO controlled the drone to scan the area.

The remaining dozen or so drones were circling around these nuclear missiles, and the Oasis's intelligent entities were conducting analysis work through these specially modified scientific research drones.

Unlike ordinary reconnaissance drones, these scientific research drones are larger, but their weapons are only basic cutting lasers and grabbing capabilities.

The rest of the drone is crammed with a large number of sensors and analysis modules, which makes its flight speed extremely slow and its balance mediocre, making it completely unusable as battlefield equipment.

However, no one usually uses this type of drone in combat. The humanoids in the Oasis have tried to make some drones based on scientific research needs - although this seems a bit counterproductive.

Humans created humanoids with the intention of having them perform high-risk tasks, but when the humanoids are alone, they will still choose more convenient equipment.

Several agents at Oasis Base were frantically analyzing the information uploaded by the drone. The drone's camera conducted a deep scan of the wires and pipelines on the support, and after a while, the agents came to some conclusions.

"Professor, these nuclear missiles have only the warheads installed, but not yet the rocket boosters. However, we've scanned the automated loading mechanism, and judging by the metal wear, it's still capable of launch. Theoretically, as long as power is maintained at this nuclear missile launch site, it can automatically complete loading and launch." The agent on the other side of the window explained in detail.

"I need a safe demolition plan." Sun Yang trotted after the humanoids. The humanoids in front were very efficient. Although they remained alert, they still walked down the floors at a rapid speed to confirm whether there were any living creatures in the room.

"Our analysis indicates that you need to find the base's control room, where we can override the automatic control data. Then, we can have the engineering figures dismantle and seal these nuclear warheads. Are you satisfied with this plan?"

"Okay, let's do this." Sun Yang had no objection. It didn't sound strange.

[Okay, I'll notify Dr. Pascal and the acting supervisor.] The agent froze for a second or two before coming back to its senses.

Messages from Pascal and the agent appeared in the corner of Sun Yang's window. They said they were planning humanoids and warehouses to receive these nuclear warheads.

"Professor, may I ask you a question?" asked the figure who was still monitoring the nuclear warheads.

"Just ask. We haven't met the enemy yet." Sun Yang said easily.

"Professor, what are you planning on doing with all these nuclear warheads? Radiation levels in some areas of the base are actually exceeding safety standards. We're also a bit worried that if they're stored improperly, they might blow the entire base up," the agent said worriedly.

"Collect them...of course you're going to prepare to throw them away." Sun Yang said as a matter of course.

"But the warheads we estimate are stored in this base are enough to destroy Berlin twice... What are you fighting against? Oh, sorry, I shouldn't ask so many questions." The agent said in a panic.

"No, no, no, you're wrong. I never thought about dropping a nuclear bomb on Berlin. There's no need, and I don't have that many rockets and launch bases. It's just that when we encounter an enemy that is difficult to defeat in the future, these are our hope for a comeback and our trump card." Sun Yang tried to explain.

"You have quite a few of these trump cards...?" the agent, whose social skills weren't particularly strong, said awkwardly.

"Not much. After all, these can only be used as bombs for terrorist attacks. If you think it's too much, just throw it into the decomposition machine and break it down into resources." Sun Yang waved his hand.

"That would indeed free up a lot of resources. Thank you, professor, for your answer. I'm now cleared." The agent seemed to have found a reasonable answer in Sun Yang's case. It continued diligently operating the drone and recording the latest data.

In front of Sun Yang, the two squads never let their guard down. Both the M4 and AK12 knew that the commander wasn't responsible for close-quarters combat, and that relying on humanoids for command was faster and more accurate in this environment.

The air in this underground base is still foggy and the air quality is very poor. The complex ventilation system installed in the walls of the base cannot provide any good filtering effect.

After all, the environment outside was already deplorable, with radioactive dust everywhere. The ventilation system here had been operating for two centuries without maintenance or replacement, so it was considered good enough to filter the air to a barely breathable level.

If this was an environment with no ventilation, this base would be uninhabitable. Who knows what kind of creatures might be born here. After all, the nuclear radiation in the Fallout world could indeed cause some animals to mutate and develop in a chaotic direction.

They advanced floor by floor, pushing open doors. When passing certain terminals, the humanoids would stop and quickly decrypt them, taking all the robot outposts connected to them offline. They then handed the offline combat machines to Sun Yang, who would return them to the main base and stuff them directly into the disassembly box.

These offline Dexterous Warriors, Observers, or Iron Guards couldn't be used directly. What Iron Blood needed was a large-scale deployment, and controlling a few Iron Guard robots was useless. They might as well be thrown into the recycling station to recycle the resources.

As they approached the bottom, M4 suddenly noticed some strange marks on the floor.

Normally, such a place where no one comes would just continue to accumulate dust, but now M4 has found unusual clues from the overturned debris.

The humanoids' high-performance vision picked up several sets of footprints on the dirty ground. One set was clearly human, while the other had a very strange and unusual gait.

The humanoids couldn't quite pinpoint what it was, but based on the surroundings, they could easily infer the time it had been there. After some discussion and experience, they came to their own conclusion.
