Storming into the City

The landing craft's wings had barely been deployed for a few seconds when the deck behind each craft slowly lowered, revealing the ground dozens of meters below to the marines inside.

"Go, go, go!" At the captain's shout, Bird-Eating Spider and Wolf Spider combat robots were the first to rush out of the landing craft.

The short-range thrusters mounted beneath them allowed the combat robots to decelerate before hitting the ground, even when falling from great heights.

At the same time, their many-jointed legs cushioned their landing and absorbed the impact.

Their low cost made these robots ideal for taking the lead during a landing operation.

After the combat robots from more than half the landing craft had jumped down, multi-legged infantry fighting vehicles began leaping out after them.

These multi-legged infantry fighting vehicles carried heavy cannons comparable to tank guns, as well as infantry cannons for dealing with lightly armored enemies. Their multiple legs were actually foldable, transformable tracks.

On level ground, the legs would merge into three pairs of tracks. Once they entered complex terrain, however, the tracks could transform into mechanical legs, allowing the vehicles to traverse special terrain such as wreckage fields and building rooftops.

Only after these vehicles had jumped from the landing craft did the marine soldiers follow.

The soldiers formed long lines and ran straight out of the craft's bays.

Although the landing craft were still flying at a low altitude of sixty meters, the soldiers' powered armor and enhanced bodies ensured that the impact of the fall would not affect their combat effectiveness. Besides, they also had thruster systems on their backs.

By then, the combat robots that had landed were already engaged in battle.

Zerg cannon fodder poured in from every direction like an endless tide.

These Zerg cannon fodder were
