Still, the sight of hundreds of blue lasers shooting towards them was quite impressive. At least the engineering figure's movement slowed down instantly.
The engineering figures immediately dropped to the ground, either lying prone or taking cover in the surrounding buildings. After all, without any experience in real combat, it would be too difficult for them to stand up and fight back.
The vanguard troops did not like to take so much damage, so they found a place to hide.
The shotgun dolls ran from the back to the front, and the action teams on both sides took over the shotgun dolls' positions and protected the engineering dolls tightly.
The light blue laser had little effect on the shotgun dolls' heavy power suits.
The academy's technology tree isn't like some games where you can upgrade a synth's weapons and AI in less than a few hours - but then again, if the academy's scientists could program the artificial intelligence well, they wouldn't have created synths.
Dark green jets and crimson lasers instantly overwhelmed the blue light. The heavily loaded shotgun humanoids indiscriminately strafed the domed hall ahead.
The main entrance to the dome hall was mostly destroyed by such firepower, and those synths who took shelter too far outside were melted along with their bunkers. The drones hovering overhead also provided indirect live ammunition firepower.
The heat generated by the shotgun dolls when they pulled the trigger alone raised the surrounding temperature significantly.
The launcher's micro-cooling system continued to cool the barrel. Yes, the duration of this salvo... was longer than those present had expected.
About a minute later, the shotgun launcher was on the verge of overheating, and Helena ordered to stop shooting.
The dome hall right in front looked like it had been hit by a nuclear bomb at close range. The burnt stone pillars were barely standing there, and the walls that had stood the test of time were burned to nothing, not even a single movable object was left.
"Tsk!" Rukatiye clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction. "Not a single one left?"
"Don't be silly! The enemy will teleport again! The battle isn't over yet! Quick! Take up a nearby position!"
Ellian was the first to run out from behind the bunker. The temperature around her was dozens of degrees higher than other places, and the temperature in the burned dome hall in front was even higher. It was like when a building fire had just been extinguished.
However, this temperature is still acceptable for humanoids.
As Ariana shouted, a large number of blue flashes appeared from near the ruins, and more synths emerged like ants.
"Damn! Why are there so many! Isn't the academy short of electricity? Everyone, charge! The action team should follow! The shotgun team should protect the engineering team! Charge forward together! Quick!" Sun Yang issued the F2A order.
Hearing the order, the two Iron-Blooded Humanoids and Rukatiye rushed out at top speed, stepping on the charred ground and facing the lasers fired by the synths suffering from the heat.
The blue lasers splattered across the faces of the two elite Ironbloods, but didn't even burn their skin, leaving only a trace of black spots. Rukatiye didn't even have a black spot. At her strength, insufficient laser power couldn't even penetrate her defenses—after all, her fire resistance was already stacked.
Ironblood and Rukatiye rushed to the ruins of the rotunda in less than a minute. Brandishing their massive weapons and twin swords, they charged into the assembled synths.
Slashes far more powerful and swift than those of the synths whirled through the body of the three, who flew up and down like whirlwind razors. Many synths were beheaded by the swords as soon as they landed, leaving only exposed cables.
After being strengthened by the birdmen in the base, Rukatiye's greatsword had become sharper and more resilient. It was easy to cut through these synthetics.
"Oh shit!" "Oh my god..." Old Popsicle and the Postman could only find time to pull the trigger at some of the synths that had escaped the net. The three melee teammates in front had already killed most of the reinforcements.
The shotgun humanoid finally escorted the trembling engineering humanoid to the square in front of the circular hall. With the arrival of Sun Yang, the teleported synths all encountered teleportation errors. They could no longer jump out of the door and instead landed in the wilderness near the hall.
Sun Yang quickly transferred a large number of spare parts to the designated location, and the engineering figures immediately broke down into small pieces and started assembling them despite the sound of gunfire around them.
From time to time, a few lasers would leak in, shooting several engineering dolls to the ground. However, Sun Yang would soon be there and send the incapacitated engineering dolls back to the base.
The bunker buster was assembled very efficiently, completing the assembly on the spot in just a few minutes. After the last few engineering figures finished welding the outer shell, they reported their results to Sun Yang.
"Assembly completed! Evacuate to a safe distance!" Sun Yang protected the engineering figures and evacuated them to other locations according to the predetermined route. The figures also followed and retreated while fighting, running hundreds of meters in one breath.
Seeing this, the synths immediately turned their guns and fired at the bunker buster, but the lasers couldn't even scratch it. The Oasis research department had already considered this and had fashioned the bomb's casing from an advanced tank—after all, it was only going to be used this once, so a little extravagance was a given.
"AR team, we have installed the bombs, you can start the attack." Sun Yang took out a pile of building materials and placed them in front of the team as a cover, which made Old Popsicle stunned.
[AR Team received. Mission: Eliminate the synths, capture the researchers, prevent any possible escape, and protect and collect all scientific research materials and data.] M4, who had been on standby for several hours a few kilometers away, replied.
Sun Yang changed the channel again, calling out to the standby humanoids and everyone in the main force at the oasis: "After the bunker-buster bomb explodes, I will deploy a wide-area, full-band jammer here to prevent the academy from activating its transmission equipment! However, the signal will also be disrupted! Please be prepared."
Everyone and the humanoids said they had received the instructions, and Sun Yang took out the detonation button of the earth-penetrating bomb and threw it directly to Old Popsicle. Old Popsicle looked up at Sun Yang with some confusion.
"Come on, old Popsicle! This honor belongs to you!"
"...Let the academy become history forever!" Old Popsicle seemed to sneer under his helmet, and he pressed the button without hesitation.
"boom--!"
A huge amount of directional explosives was activated, and the surging energy penetrated directly into the ground, breaking through the soil layer that the college had painstakingly dug and backfilled.
325 All-out War with the Academy (V)
The excess energy of the bunker buster was released from the inside out, breaking through the armor plate. Everyone in the team lowered their heads. After all, no one wanted to have their head blown off by metal debris.
The flying debris cut off part of the building materials placed by Sun Yang. Fortunately, it failed to penetrate these thick enough building materials, otherwise there would not be many casualties in the fight with the synths. It would be too tricky to blow up one's own people during the blast.
Sun Yang looked up and saw that a huge crater had been blown out of the ground in front of the dome hall. The synths around him had been torn apart by the violent explosion.
Such a violent explosion was enough to shake the academy below. They did not send more synths to attack for the time being, perhaps because the explosion had temporarily thrown the academy into chaos.
"Charge, charge, charge!" Aliana crawled out from behind the bunker and led the vanguard in another charge. She ran all the way to the large pit and looked down. The drones in the sky were still circling.
Looking down along the big pit that was blown out, it is not particularly deep. You can see the dented metal floor inside, and a lot of soil and metal fragments.
The bunker bomb was more effective than expected, piercing the academy's ceiling directly after the explosion. Sun Yang had thought that he would need to throw in dozens or even hundreds of kilograms of explosives to blow the ceiling open, but it seemed that this was no longer necessary.
Ariana jumped in first, followed by the Iron-Blooded Doll, Rukatiye and Old Popsicle - these people either had powerful reverse thrust systems on their power suits, or they could just jump in without any problems.
After all, the power armor's high-tech buffer system is enough to ensure that jumping from a height of dozens of meters will not affect the combat.
"WTF!" The postman was about to jump down when he suddenly realized that he might die.
Then she watched helplessly as the vanguard troops displayed their prowess, some relying on thrusters, some making hard landings, and that Rukatiye even stuck his greatsword into the wall and slid straight down.
"I'll take you down. Hold on to me." Sun Yang ran up from behind. He let the postman hug him, and then jumped down with controlled falling.
The rest of the troops followed behind, but this time the engineering figures needed to be on standby up there, as they weren't needed for the battle below.
Two humanoids from the action team, along with their puppets, volunteered to stay behind to take charge of the security work. After Sun Yang left them with enough supplies and explosives, he also rushed down with the main force, picking up the postman by the way.
The shotgun dolls wearing heavy power suits had foot structures similar to those of power armor, so they chose to make a hard landing directly. After all, the weight and volume were there.
The original action team used jet packs to mitigate the impact of the fall.
"Have someone take you down. I'm going to need a lot of mana later." Sun Yang pointed to the vanguard troops in front. The postman looked at Ariana, who had just been giving orders.
"Let me take you down." Ariana looked at her temporary teammates and decided her own thrusters were more reliable. The others' landing methods were a bit too wild.
The vanguard team arrived at what appeared to be a large platform, with a long corridor connecting to the platform. Sun Yang looked left and right, and it seemed familiar.
It seems to be similar to the place that the Brotherhood of Steel demolished in the original game, but the location recorded here is actually the location where Old Popsicle just teleported here. Okay, that's not surprising.
The vanguard troops activated again. The door at the end of the corridor was tightly closed, but two Iron-Blooded Humanoids kicked it directly. The kick, carrying a huge amount of kinetic energy, broke the door. In a few seconds, the academy's gate was demolished.
Dozens of laser guns immediately fired from within the door, but this desperate resistance only infuriated the executioners and alchemists. They charged out again under the fire, while others behind them provided support fire with a variety of weapons.
"...I didn't expect that only two days would pass and I would come back here again and attack this facility with so many people." He had to put it down after pulling the trigger for only a short while.
Old Popsicle watched helplessly as the two non-human guys called the Executioner and the Alchemist, and Rukatiye, rushed into the synths again and threw a pile of limbs into the air again.
The college's elevator had been locked, and the vanguard troops pressed the elevator button for a long time but there was no response.
Through the glass at the end of the corridor, they could see the chaos in the academy below. Scientists were running around in a panic, and the synths that had not yet been deployed were simply gathered together for a final desperate resistance.
After watching for a few seconds with her arms folded, Rukatiye decisively chopped the glass with her sword and jumped down. From time to time, she stabbed the sword into the glass cover of the elevator to slow down her descent.
The others were not to be outdone. The vanguard troops continued to shoot at the synths below during their landing.
"Oh! I'm going to die! I'm going to die!" The postman was frightened by the huge firepower of the opposite side and felt like he had to pee urgently. Hiding by himself was one thing, but being carried on the shoulders of his teammates and unable to move was another.
She fired repeatedly at the enemies below, but some of them were not fast enough.
Aliana quickly activated her stance shield.
This energy-consuming individual shield couldn't last long, but it was sufficient for landing operations. The azure lasers from below hitting the shield were a beautiful sight... but that was all it was.
In addition to the first and second generation synths, the third generation synths and hunters who were treasured by the academy and loyal to the academy were also forced to take action.
Many of these third-generation synths hate the academy, but are powerless to resist.
But when attacked by a large army, these third-generation synths had to fight even if they didn't want to. If they ran away, they would be killed by the hunters. For these synths, the difference between turning their guns and facing the enemy was just the difference between a faster death and a slower one.
The six members of the Vanguard Squad took damage from hundreds of laser blasts. Even with the Academy's laser blasters' poor power and accuracy, hundreds of blasts hitting a humanoid wouldn't be enough. After landing on the ground, several of them immediately sought nearby cover to recover.
Just as the synths were suppressing the vanguard, more humanoids jumped down from above, and the synths' brief firepower advantage was immediately wiped out.
The unsuppressed Iron Humanoids and Rukatiye immediately rushed out and once again killed all the humanoid units marked as synths.
Beep, beep... a notification sounded in everyone's communication channel. Sun Yang's update command came:
[This is the commander. I authorize the use of lethal fire on all units, even those scientists. I don't care if they are injured or not, as long as they can be dragged to me alive.]
After the shotgun dolls finished cleaning up the synths, they assigned people to rush to different areas.
The synth's tissue fluid splashed onto the metal wall, and behind them were several black marks.
They opened all the closed doors one by one. Before these scientists in white uniforms could even figure out what was going on, they were beaten up and dragged outside by the humanoids.
However, those synths who were hiding were not so lucky. After the synth chips were detected, no matter how these third-generation synths begged for mercy, they were met with accurate headshots.
However, the humanoids were scattered around the center, so searching them all would take some time. Some foresighted scientists had already left the academy through a secret passage, along with a group of hunters and synths who would obey their orders.
They have always known that there is a road in the academy that leads to the outside world, but for various reasons, they chose to conceal this information - and this concealment became the hope of escape for a few of them.
"Almost there, almost there..." Several scientists walked through the dark, dirty, and smelly pipes. They had almost nothing with them, and were accompanied by only a dozen synths and two hunters.
The faint sound of intense gunfire from behind them spurred them to quicken their pace. Several pairs of boots clattered in the water, making the chaotic clatter of footsteps in the pipes a bit noisy.
The leading hunter remained alert and carefully observed the surrounding environment when he passed a corner. There were no signals, no strange movements, and no irregular activities were observed.
The stalker took a confident step forward, but then his body froze. A noticeable indentation appeared on his throat, and with a soft snap, the stalker's neck was broken.
A series of light gunshots rang out in the air, and the heads of the synths around the scientists exploded one after another. The hunter at the rear had just pulled out his gun when dozens of bullets riddled his head with bullets.
The AK15 deactivated its cloak and tossed the stalker, whose neck had been crushed, aside. The scientists tried to pull out their guns and fight back, but their hands were immediately gripped by a tremendous force, and then easily crushed.
The infiltration team came out of their stealth state and looked at each other.
After leaving the sewers, the Rebellion Squad and the AR Squad advanced in two directions. Squad 404 was responsible for the rearguard, recovering the data and dragging the scientists. M4 checked the ammunition and issued new instructions.
[You want us to mobilize all our forces with just these few people?] UMP45, as usual, made a sarcastic comment about Sun Yang's plan.
"A large fish might escape from the sewers, so we anticipate a large number of troops. Furthermore, our reserve team will be responsible for all the work. I have no objection to this arrangement." AK15 offered a rare rebuttal.
[No, no, no, I mean there aren't enough people here... Are you really that unwilling to go outside?] UMP45 kicked the scientists, who were too frightened and in pain to move.
"Perhaps the wasteland outside is too dangerous for them. After all, these people have been hiding down here for two centuries." RO proposed a possibility, and most of the surrounding humanoids agreed with this view.
326 All-out War with the Academy (End)
"Where is Sean! Where is your Holy Father?!" The fist of the power armor smashed the head of a third-generation synth, and metal parts and brain matter splattered on the face of the scientist next to him.
"Ah, bah, bah..." The scientist, who had spent his whole life in the academy, had never seen such a scene before and was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly.
He didn't dare to wipe the blood and brains off his face, for fear that the angry old popsicle in front of him would punch him in the head: "He's on the second floor, he, he didn't leave the house..."
"Hmph." Old Popsicle took the trembling scientist aside and let the humanoids around him drag him away.
After the humanoids successfully broke in, the academy's demise was only a matter of time. However, it was hard to say how long this process would take and what kind of collateral damage would occur.
Because in despair, many scientists will take extreme actions under pressure, such as collecting explosives everywhere, committing suicide in their own laboratories, or directly committing suicide by swallowing a gun in despair.
Sun Yang couldn't stand watching this practice of wasting talent and damaging the machine. His heart was bleeding. How could these people do such a thing?! Spit out all the knowledge in your heads before you die!
Sun Yang quickly asked the humanoids to publicize several times, "We want the academy's technology, you must submit to us." After that, many scientists surrendered smoothly and tactfully.
After all, everyone knows that a good death is worse than a miserable life. These scientists have no sentimental values. As long as there is a need for scientists to work, they can live comfortably anywhere.
Although it is definitely not as good as living in college, it is worse than losing your life.
During this process, many third-generation synths felt that they could not escape or avoid death, and in despair they pulled out their guns and shot the researchers.
However, the humanoids' movements were generally faster than those of the hunters who had received implants and rigorous training, so these third-generation synths didn't kill many people in total.
Batches of scientists were dragged to the center of officialdom, and some were punched, had their faces twisted, or had their arms and legs broken because of their fierce resistance.
Griffin's veterans wouldn't hesitate to attack unarmed humans. They'd seen too many monsters and valuables destroyed, and too many times a moment of mercy had resulted in even greater losses.
Sun Yang stood in the center of the square, silently watching the dolls busy themselves. After all, the dolls had already made plans for what to do after arriving here, so there was no need for Sun Yang to move people around.
After roughly confirming that the academy's combat effectiveness had been suppressed, Sun Yang waved the dragon bell and shook out the scientific research and medical dolls of the oasis.
The engineering figures outside also set up several vertical padlocks and climbed down from the ground along the ropes.
The engineering dolls were responsible for maintenance, repairs, and cleaning up the battlefield, while the medical dolls carried supplies and carefully bandaged the injured scientists.
Those scientists who made too much noise, had broken ribs or were beaten to death were gathered together with Sun Yang, who stood in the crowd and rubbed their bodies with his hands to heal them.
