216. Killing and Conscience

Ta-ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta-ta!!! Countless gunshots rang out, and bullets rained down like raindrops. Wherever it passed, the shield was shattered, the human body was penetrated, and a rain of blood poured out.

Cold Weapon Era's large shield and spear are vulnerable to modern thermal weapons! Even if the only ones using these hot weapons are a group of powerless civilians!

This was a messy battle. Cerean Planetary Elders Council's army had already been scattered by the dense bullets, and the remaining people could only fight on their own. The situation of the armed civilians in Technology Movement was not much better. They just rushed forward with their passion, picked up their guns and fired randomly.

The formations did not exist, and the detachments and battle lines did not exist at all. These civilians just went up to shoot and shoot again!

But with modern weapons in hand, you don't need to face the opponent's ferocious look like a knife, nor do you need to feel the fear of hot blood splashing on your face, or listen to the sound of muscles being torn apart and bones breaking, and you won't be chopped up by these well-trained off-duty soldiers due to lack of exercise...

All you need is to pull the trigger and watch the people in front of you fall down in pieces. Not even a large shield covered with iron can resist the fire of the weapon in his hand! You don't even know how those people died!

But in short, they died... I don't know whether they died from the bullets you fired.

Yuri-Orlov was also immersed in this kind of pleasure. He picked up a handful of Type 21 assault rifle with grain grass hanging from the box and stuffed it directly into a 15, the 6-year-old boy patted his shoulder and said loudly, "Okay, kid, listen to me! Here is the muzzle, here is the trigger, and here is the butt! Point the muzzle at the enemy, put the butt against your shoulder, and then pull the trigger! Do you understand?"

He looked at the boy who was playing with the assault rifle and pushed the boy's gun away, "Oh no, you can't point the gun at your friends, understand? Okay, now charge forward! Remember to lie down on the ground and shoot! Go boy! For the bright future of Cerea!! Hahaha!"

Then he looked at an old woman in her 50s next to him, took out a grenade from the box and handed it over, "If you are old and can't bear the recoil, use this! Look, pull out the latch and throw it out! Then get down! Got it? OK, OK, for Cerea, for Cerea! Yeah!"

Yuri shouted a few slogans perfunctorily and pushed the old woman onto the battlefield.

Vitaly-Orlov stood behind and looked at each of them, his face pale, and he said with a trembling voice, "He... they are just children and old people..."

"When they decide to take up arms, they are no longer children and old people Vitaly. They are..." Yuri smiled as he picked up another assault rifle and threw it to the person next to him, "They are my clients."

"No... this is different! This, absolutely not possible!" Vitaly held down Yuri's hand, "This is different from what we thought! In Tatooine, the people who bought our weapons were a group of criminals, and they were dealing with mercenaries! But it's different! Cerea It's different here!"

"Tell me what's different? Oh, it's true. I sold Scar them a gun for 400 credits, but at Cerea, my gun only counts for 300, which is a 7.5 discount!"

Vitaly saw a woman running back covered in blood. She should have been farming for a long time and was in good physical condition. The blood on her body belonged to others. She threw the empty assault rifle on the ground and said with a smile, "Quick! Give me another one! Give me another one!!"

No matter it is a human being or any other intelligent creature, what exists in their bones is the beastly nature of bloodthirsty and killing! What's more, this kind of unilateral massacre!

Vitaly was anxious, and he quickly ran over, grabbed the woman's hand, and said loudly, "Do you know what you are doing? You are killing people! You are killing people, do you understand? Your hands should be used to hug your children, and you should not pull the trigger to cause killing!!"

"Go away!" The woman pushed Vitaly to the ground, took a brand new assault rifle from a B-1 combat robot, not forgetting to kiss the robot's head, and then rushed to the battlefield happily.

Vitaly sat on the ground with his head in his hands, "Why is this happening? Why is this happening?"

Yuri squatted down next to him, put the cigar in his mouth directly into his mouth, and then said softly, "I said, people are like this, so I chose to sell weapons instead of lollipops. But you have to understand, this is what they asked me for. Firstly, I didn't advertise, and secondly, I didn't send salesmen, but they knew I had weapons, so they came to me. Do you remember what the manager asked us to do in the first place? Sell some raw materials to Yifent. But now?"

"But they are civilians! Yuri! The Fucking civilians!!!!" Vitaly became angry all of a sudden. He jumped up suddenly and pushed Yuri away. Then he wanted to walk over to find Dor-Femi-Bonmi elder to tell him the difference, but when he saw the fanaticism on Elder Dor's face, he became desperate.

"Listen to me Vitaly, they are not flat..."

"Don't tell me this, Yuri, don't..." Vitaly pointed at Yuri's nose as if looking at a stranger, gradually distanced himself from him, then got on a hover motorcycle and drove away.

After the battle lasted for 2 hours, it was completely over...

The participating Elder Council troops fled in all directions, leaving behind the bodies of at least half of their troops. In other words, within two hours, they suffered more than 50,000 casualties! This is not a battle, this is a massacre, a one-sided massacre! A massacre of civilians against troops!

Even though Technology Movement are just a group of civilians, they are holding 5.56mm caliber assault rifles with a maximum range of 700 meters and the ability to fire 300 rounds of bullets per minute! In the face of full-power armor-piercing projectiles, even 10mm steel plates can be penetrated!

The stamped plate armor and iron shield Elder Council soldiers was wearing were no different from a layer of paper.

Elder Dor has completely fallen into madness. This victory allows him to see the dawn of victory!

After this battle, Elder Council will no longer be able to mobilize more troops in a short period of time. Even if they mobilize more troops, they will only increase the number of casualties in the face of modern assault rifles.

He left 1,000 people to take care of the wounded, and then led a mighty parade directly towards the Cerea capital Tekav City.

The Elder Council meeting 2 days later was the beginning of his rise to the top!! His son will become Grand Elder of Cerea, the most powerful person on the planet!
