The assault figures aimed their guns at the better-protected second-generation synths, whose electromagnetically accelerated projectiles instantly ripped them to shreds.
Logically, the plasma weapons wielded by the second-generation synths were sufficient to inflict damage on the humanoids. After all, their power suits offered limited protection against plasma weapons. However, with the clumsy synths' accuracy and reaction speed, they were completely slaughtered by the humanoids, who were highly skilled in indoor combat, before they could even fire a shot.
These tactical humanoids used the close-range weapons in their hands to instantly wipe out all the synths. If they were too close, they would just tear off the synths' joints and heads - in terms of strength, the humanoids would not lose.
The enemies on the south side were wiped out in an instant. Those who landed on the north side also suffered a setback. Although the northern action team ran out to intercept the large number of super mutant troops, it did not mean that the defense capability was weakened.
The shotgun dolls raised the heavy energy launchers they were carrying and pulled the triggers directly at the houses on the street.
Deep green plasma jets and thick lasers intertwined on the north side. The two weapons had different energy forms, but both released a large amount of heat energy, melting the enemy.
The nearby drones and heavy powered suits immediately registered the enemy synths' location. These shotgun figures kept moving and firing.
The plasma jets pierced through the houses, which had become extremely fragile after two hundred years, in a few seconds. Although the synths on the north side tried their best to fire a few plasma shells, they had no effect on the shotgun humanoids.
The hidden synths were cut off along with the house. Even if a few escaped, the shotgun figure holding the plasma weapon flipped a button, changing the jet nozzle to a different mode.
"Whoosh!" Deep green flames burst out from the nozzle, setting the entire house on fire within seconds. After changing the nozzle, the plasma launcher spewed out large, surging sheets of ultra-high temperature flames.
The hidden synths let out strange screams and ran out of the house, and were then shot into ashes by the shotgun-shaped puppets.
The previous chapter was written with a lot of excitement, without considering the actual situation of the college and the difficulties I encountered.
Looking back, I felt that the academy's combat capabilities were indeed a bit too outrageous and shouldn't be so strong.

322 and the Comprehensive Development of the College (II)
Flames licked the house, reaching up to the roof. Helena slung the heavy energy weapon she was carrying to her side and replaced it with a shotgun suitable for close-quarters combat.
"Keep going! I'll clean this up! Follow me!" Helena ordered the other shotgun figures, then rushed into the ramshackle house herself.
Surrounded by the sea of fire in the room, the synths, who had been taught a lesson by the two types of heavy firepower, lay on the ground. Most of the first and second generation synths had been burned into a pile of melted, huddled plastic garbage.
The temperature of the power suit was gradually rising. After Helena glanced around and confirmed that there was no signal, she withdrew from the fire.
Not long after she evacuated, the building collapsed in flames. The intense heat exploded the masonry, destroying even the load-bearing walls.
The building visibly bent, then collapsed in flames. The flames that flew up from the building's collapse illuminated a small area nearby.
In a corner of this post-apocalyptic city, a huge light rises in the darkness, but this light does not mean it brings hope and warmth - the light of civilization is not here.
This troop's pace didn't pause for a moment. Most of the engineering figures were facing real-life combat for the first time, and real-life combat differed greatly from the data-based combat visualized in Cloud Atlas space.
The scorching hot air stirred up by the surrounding shotgun dolls when they pulled the triggers, as well as the rapid gunfire coming from the nearby buildings and streets, all put a lot of mental pressure on these dolls with a certain degree of intelligence.
But they continued to move quickly, running neatly down the street. Several skilled fighters at the front of the troop quickly searched the road ahead while maintaining vigilance. At the rear were Sun Yang and several reserve troops providing fire support.
The academy's attack wasn't limited to just one. After realizing they were coming for them, more synths emerged from all directions. However, the academy's attempt to defeat this force with synths was simply wishful thinking.
The engineering doll in the middle was well protected. The synths' transporter team had already proven that teleporting near the tactical doll was useless. With inferior equipment and body data, how could they win in close combat?
The academy quickly changed its tactics. A large number of synths were first teleported to a distant place to assemble, and then an ambush was set up nearby - this was a good idea. If Sun Yang had not deployed sniper humanoids and drones in advance, these synths might really run out and shoot.
"Boom!" "Boom!"... A loud noise came from the rear of the team. More than a second later, several synths who had gathered together were hit by large-caliber bullets.
The bullets shredded the synths, their heavy armor, designed to protect against small-caliber pistols and laser pistols, offering no protection.
Their bodies and armor were torn to pieces, and the bullets caused a small explosion when they hit the synths.
Behind the entire group, on a tall building, Dushani—KSVK—and her puppet pulled the bolt together. After confirming that there were no more enemies around, they quickly advanced on the building, keeping pace with the main force.
The ammunition he used was a technology provided by NCR arms dealers - explosive bullets. This type of bullet not only has strong armor-piercing capabilities, but can also cause an explosion on the target, causing secondary damage.
These synths gathered together were immediately wiped out.
Shortly after Dushani fled, a group of synths teleported to where she had been. But by the time they arrived, she had already left. Only the drones in the sky spotted these synths trying to sneak around and steal her home.
“Dong dong dong dong——!”
The electromagnetic automatic machine gun on the drone opened fire, and the group of synthetic humans were shot into sieves in an instant.
***
The main force's advance was unstoppable. Meanwhile, the northern action team had arrived at the battle position, not far from the hungry (literally) super mutant troops.
During the journey, several more super mutants joined the team. These new super mutants brought mutant hounds with them, providing them with more tactical options in battle.
Mutant hounds are creatures bred by super mutants. Sun Yang is unclear about their origins. However, after being infected with the FEV virus, they have become hideous, muscular, and possess enhanced aggression and physical performance. These hounds serve as hunting companions for super mutants.
This group of super mutants seemed to have been developing for a long time. On average, each super mutant was about three meters tall and weighed nearly half a ton.
According to the intelligence obtained from the wasteland, super mutants seem to be a species whose stature and physique will grow larger over time as long as they survive. Their strength, endurance, recovery ability, and ability to withstand blows will also increase accordingly.
Correspondingly, their already weak brains will become even worse. It is said that after reaching a certain age, super mutants will grow into a kind of creature called mutant behemoth.
This behemoth is nearly immune to all small arms fire, but is also too dumb to use common weapons—most of which are too small for its oversized fingers. Ultimately, the behemoth can only use telephone poles for close combat, or find rocks and Fat Man nukes to throw as ranged fire.
Apart from anything else, at least with this physique and arm strength, it is quite easy for the giant beast to smash a power armor with a stone thrown out.
However, this kind of behemoth usually cannot distinguish between enemies and friends, and most of the time super mutants can only lock up the behemoth or drive it to other places.
Of course, there are a few cases where the behemoths retain basic wisdom... after all, there are exceptions to everything.
The northernmost team had found a wreckage and taken cover there. Drones circling overhead faithfully recorded the scene. The Super Mutants foolishly followed the synths' bloody splatter, eating and following along.
These super mutants wear metal plates picked up from somewhere, and then screw them together with steel bars and other things to make mutant armor.
It would be very uncomfortable to wear such metal plates naked or in cloth, but super mutants have thick skin and flesh, so this is nothing.
What really worries the humanoids are the weapons they carry. Because of their physique and pursuit of violence, super mutants always tend to seek out individual heavy weapons for combat.
And this group of super mutants have obviously lived for quite some time... Nearly half of them are holding miniguns and rocket launchers.
Those who like close combat got power hammers from somewhere, and a few super mutants carried armor plates and broken steel bars and cosplayed as Roman legionaries.
However, these should be of the type that are useful for whatever they have. There don't seem to be many one-handed weapons in the wasteland that super mutants can carry around.
Just as the humanoids were squatting in the house, ready to attack, the captain of the action team discovered through the drone overhead that there was a shaking in the pool not far from the group of super mutants.
A huge, green-skinned humanoid creature stood out from the pool. It was much taller than those tall super mutants, at four meters tall.
It doesn't look like it's moving fast, but because of its huge size, it can keep up even if it walks slowly. It holds a complete fire hydrant in its hand, and most creatures would be doomed if hit by that thing.
The super mutants roared and cheered, then gathered around the giant beast. They followed the giant beast and charged forward following the strongest smell of blood.
"Captain! Should we wait any longer?!" The figures hiding in the house asked their captain.
Originally, if we were hiding in this house, we could sneak up on these super mutants when they passed by. But now there are behemoths on the other side, and they have a lot of new hounds and new members. I'm afraid a sneak attack won't be effective.
[No more waiting! PKP! Ram! Please provide fire support!]
[Captain, give the order.] The two tactical figures that came to support them immediately found other firing positions with their puppets. They arranged their firing ranges to create a crossfire.
[Go! Go now! Take out that big guy first! Action team! Get out your grenade launchers! Fire one round first!] The leader of the North End Action Team quickly pulled out their grenade launchers, calculated the distance, and pulled the trigger in unison.
323 Total War with the Academy (Part )
PKP and Ram fired simultaneously from both sides. Two humanoids plus eight puppets, a total of ten machine guns, opened fire simultaneously. With the help of the advanced fire control system, all the machine gun ammunition hit the behemoth.
"Ouch!" The beast, not wearing an iron helmet or any other armor, was just a mass of flesh. Within seconds, hundreds of electromagnetic missiles were embedded in its body.
These bullets, with their powerful penetrating power, penetrated the beast's body, but the effect was not particularly ideal...
The giant beast was so huge that although several bullets shot into its head, the giant beast's strong vitality allowed it to survive even though its head was pierced by several bullets.
After all, the behemoth's brain capacity is actually shrinking, and the behemoth's head becomes bigger only because the skull bones become thicker. This change indirectly makes the behemoth's skull protection ability get a leap forward.
When the beast felt pain, it subconsciously used its arms and chest to protect its head. Its head was too small compared to its arms, so it was blocked by its arms.
The electromagnetic machine gun bullets pierced its arms and belly like extremely thin needles. Although the bullets penetrated deeply, compared to its overly large body, the slender caliber could not easily tear its body apart.
The bullets made countless holes in its joints and muscles, and the giant beast was bleeding continuously, but it did not die suddenly.
However, when the machine gun figures focused their fire on the behemoth's knee joints, they simply swept it to its knees. No matter how strong it was, its injured knee joints could not support the weight of its body.
The behemoth could only lie prone on the ground, using its arms and sturdy back to absorb the bullets. The Super Mutant's resilience and resilience came into play. The FEV boost, when amplified on a Super Mutant of Behemoth's caliber, became truly terrifying. The electromagnetic machine gun's bullets pierced its flesh with countless holes, but those holes began to wriggle almost instantly, attempting to repair the wounds.
But the other super mutants were not so lucky. When PKP and Ram focused their fire on the Behemoth, the action team's humanoids collectively fired a round of smart grenades at the outside of the building.
This intelligent grenade, originating from the world of Advanced Warfare, had proven its usefulness countless times. After the humanoids fired a burst of grenades, they automatically flew towards the still-dazed Super Mutants.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"... Dozens of smart grenades exploded among the super mutants. Because these smart grenades were equipped with a micro-propulsion system and intelligent recognition components, the explosive charge was not very large.
But these were meant to be used against people, so long as they were powerful enough to kill them, they would be fine. These grenades flew through the air quickly and then hit the super mutants directly in the face. They didn't even have time to dodge.
The super mutants who were carrying various heavy weapons had never seen such weapons before, and a large number of them were killed on the spot. Those who were carrying shields and holding melee weapons were lucky enough to use their shields to block the smart grenades, sacrificing the life of the shields to block the deadly explosion for them.
[Attack! Attack! Free fire! Leave no one alive! Don't skimp on your ammunition!] Dozens of assault rifles and light lasers were raised, and the humanoids, hiding in the ruins, unleashed deadly fire.
Some of the puppets in the back were loading new grenades neatly, while others were taking off the rocket launchers or Stinger missile launchers they had been carrying on their backs.
A new round of firepower arrived, and those super mutants holding shields, with no brains or reason, and the barking mutant hounds were quickly blown into meat paste by assault rifles, laser guns, rockets and curved grenades.
The synths who had shed blood and flesh along the way were not spared either. The captain of the north action team marked their locations at the first opportunity and ordered one of his puppets to go over and kill them.
The giant beast was pinned to the ground by the machine gun and could not move. PKP and Ram took turns shooting and reloading to suppress the giant beast with strong vitality.
With the arrival of the second round of firepower, the behemoth and its super mutant friends were buried in the sea of fire.
[It's done! We won!] [Thank you for your support! PKP! Ram!] The dolls cheered in the chat, but the captain didn't let up.
[Don't be too happy! PKP! Ram, thanks for the support, we need to get back into the march.] The leader of the North End Operations Squadron issued new instructions.
[Received.] [Received.] The two machine gunners quickly retracted their guns and reloaded their ammunition. The jet systems in their power suits allowed them to fire rapidly in the darkness.
The captain switched channels and sent a communication to the main force's field command: [Helena, this is the North Side Action Team. The enemy Super Mutants have been eliminated...]
The captain was silent for a moment, and the puppet she was connected to rushed into a room and shot all the synths on standby inside. After confirming that the number of people matched, she quickly left.
[The several synths responsible for bait have also been cleared out.]
[Thank you for your hard work. Return to the marching formation and continue with the initial mission.] Helena quickly gave the order.
[Received.] After the team leader received the order, he called for his group of figures to return to the formation.
324 All-out War with the Academy (Part )
In the ensuing battle, no other decent troops showed up to cause trouble. The people from the academy gave up on the drastic measures and instead transferred a large number of troops to the dome hall of the Federal Polytechnic Institute.
Drones in the air observed dozens of blue lights flashing around the dome hall. As time passed, the number of them increased.
The academy has a lot of synths outside helping them collect various resources and technologies. Even if they are short of supplies, the number of first- and second-generation synths accumulated over hundreds of years is at least close to several hundred.
[Vanguard troops, I need you to crush those synths. The shotgun dolls in the rear will provide a burst of firepower support later, and then it's up to you to execute... As long as we can take it down, any move will do. If you need support, Ariana at the vanguard will call me.]
Sun Yang only dared to set a goal, and he didn't get involved in how to do it. The vanguard troops knew what to do better than he did. After all, his command skills were probably far inferior to Chiang Kai-shek's, so he should avoid messing around with remote micromanipulation.
"I don't think we need any support..." Old Popsicle was a little tired after running all the way, but he still looked down on those synths from the bottom of his heart. Honestly, the vanguard alone would be enough to take down these synths, right?
"Ah? Didn't you pray for support from the artillery during the Alaskan campaign? Please don't be so picky." The postman had already taken out his weapon, ready to wait for fire support from the rear.
"I don't have religious beliefs, but I still pray. However, the intensity of the battle at that time and the gap in firepower between the two sides were not so exaggerated. I just felt unexpectedly relaxed..." Old Popsicle muttered to himself.
"What? Do you think the process of supporting your own son is a little too easy? How about we all stand back and watch, and let you go in and show off your power alone?" The postman made another sarcastic remark.
"Forget it, I'd rather take it easy. If I can avoid a tough fight, I'll do it," Old Popsicle said decisively. "By the way, do you know those people up there? I think they're a little too imposing."
"I don't know them... maybe they're helpers from other worlds," the postman muttered, pointing to Rukatiye, who stood silently in front, carrying two greatswords. And then there was the Iron-Blooded Duo, who were carrying huge weapons, not wearing power suits, but had run for so long without taking a breath.
"My name is Rukatiye. The two ahead are the Executioner and the Alchemist," Rukatiye said, turning back as he ran. "We're about to start the charge. I'm not being intentionally cold, but I need to concentrate on the battle."
"I know," the postman nodded. Although she knew that this Rukatiye was a human under Sun Yang's command, she had a feeling that he was not easy to deal with. He was obviously smaller than her, but she instinctively felt that Rukatiye was not easy to deal with.
The main force was not far from the dome hall. The people gathered in the hall had already started to open fire hastily.
However, due to the synths' terrible fire control and the long distance, the accuracy of the blue laser gun is very poor, and if shot at a distance of about one kilometer, the power of the laser weapons in the hands of the academy people will be greatly reduced.
