The drones shot into the sky one after another, nimble and agile, whistling as they scattered in every direction!
"Launch successful!" Xie Yuanxun threw his head back and roared excitedly. "Go, my babies! Charge hard for me!"
Song He's heart raced too. They had launched successfully, unfolded their wings successfully, and dispersed into flight successfully!
The two crowded around the computer screen. A white bubble was expanding—that was the reconnaissance range. They could see the tiny dots representing 27 drones rapidly flying in every direction, like swift migratory birds.
Data kept streaming back, and red dots representing enemy forces began appearing on the display!
A moment later, the Honeycomb Drone sounded again with a bang, and the second wave of reconnaissance drones shot into the sky!
"Good, good, good, good!" Xie Yuanxun shouted excitedly. "The launch phase is stable!"
A moment later, the first wave of drones returned for recovery!
Then the problems erupted. The Honeycomb Drone gave off crisp clacking sounds as many drones failed to enter its interior and instead got stuck at the muzzles. Several simply fell out and began wriggling around in the sand, throwing the scene into chaos!
Next, the second wave of drones returned, and they encountered the same problem. Recovery failed.
The two men's excitement was immediately dampened. They squatted on the scorching sand to count the drones, then stood up to check the number and locations of the enemy forces marked on the computer screen.
Finally, Song He spread an experimental data sheet across the hood of the vehicle and rapidly wrote:
Collision rate: 30% (down 1%)
Reconnaissance rate: 82% (up 2%)
Remote Recovery: Not yet started
"Come on, let's run a few more tests," Song He said.
The two continued working, launching the drones again and again and recording the data
