The Other Side

Many of these Duoqi Soldiers had undergone specialized training, and even the new recruits had grown from the experience of the recent escape. After the initial shock, they reacted quickly and opened fire.

Although the angle was awkward, the behemoth that was rushing down was so huge that as long as the direction was right, there was no need to aim too precisely to hit the target.

Unfortunately, this behemoth called the Evil Eagle is very expensive to build. The high cost means that it has a more complex genetic combination, making it one of the few elite units among the native troops.

The beautiful feathers shimmered with a metallic sheen; when small-diameter energy beams struck them, they were either shattered or deflected, having no effect whatsoever.

The Evil Eagle swooped down with incredible speed; before the Duoqi Soldier could even fire two volleys, the Evil Eagle was already upon them.

The Duoqi Soldier were caught in a dilemma. At such high speeds, jumping out of the vehicle was out of the question, or they would likely be torn to pieces. But staying in the vehicle didn't seem safe either.

However, they didn't have much time to hesitate. After only a slight pause, the Evil Eagle's huge, sharp talons had already seized the chariot. Individually, the chariot wasn't small, but compared to the Evil Eagle, it was like a chick, weak and powerless.

As the Evil Eagle descended, it gained more firing angles, and the Heavy Machine Gun on the roof began firing. But even the Heavy Machine Gun could not break through the Evil Eagle's defenses.

The Evil Eagle, having caught its prey, let out a joyful cry, flapped its wings violently, creating a gust of wind, and took to the air, gripping the chariot.

However, it didn't fly too high. Instead, it quickly flapped its wings a few times while holding onto the chariot, increased its speed, and then landed on top of another chariot before throwing it over.

When the Evil Eagle Duoqi towards them, Doki understood its intention. At that moment, they no longer cared about how many pieces they would be broken into from jumping off the car at high speed.

Because if you don't jump out of the car, you'll immediately turn into mincemeat.

With a deafening crash, the two vehicles collided. The high-speed impact caused even a space-age vehicle to disintegrate on the spot.

Broken parts flew everywhere, including some of Duoqi who hadn't had time to jump out of the car, but they probably didn't care about that now. Their souls had already vanished the moment of impact, leaving only their bodies flying freely.

The Evil Eagle, having reaped its spoils, let out a joyful cry and turned to swoop down on the next tank.

A few minutes later, the third team Captain lay on his back in the grass, watching the Evil Eagle turn back into a black dot and gradually disappear into the distance, its demonic shriek still seeming to echo in his ears.

The chariot must have been completely destroyed, otherwise the demon wouldn't have left. But that's no longer his concern; just now, he jumped off the chariot, which was traveling at nearly 500 miles per hour.

He tumbled countless times before finally stopping. Although he was still alive, he was unable to move.

Having some medical knowledge, he knew that the man was probably beyond saving; all his bones were shattered, but he could no longer feel pain, and his consciousness was beginning to fade...

At that moment, he suddenly realized that the various units were being deployed in turn, and the Zerg were indeed using them for experiments. In that case, the commander and the others who had escaped the base first were probably already in grave danger.

Ha, this fucked-up world, this damned Zerg!

His eyes gradually lost their luster; he had done his best.

Just as the unnamed squad Captain Duoqi, had guessed, the commander who had left the base in Gunboat had already completed the testing mission before him.

At that time, their two Gunboat and five Transport Craft took off first, and shortly afterward, the two Gunboat that were covering the tanks' departure from the hangar also withdrew.

But shortly after they rendezvoused, the ship's radar began to sound alarms frantically; danger was coming from the sky!

This time, it's not the Evil Eagle that's making an appearance. The Evil Eagle is covered in tough feathers and is relatively heavy. Although it flies very fast, it can only compare to ground units.

Compared to flying units like ships, its speed is somewhat disappointing. However, the Evil Eagle is positioned as an aerial heavy armor unit, responsible for assaults, drawing fire, and ground penetration.

Therefore, the Swarm has other countermeasures against these aerial units. At this point, the Wind God, a former air carrier, makes its appearance. This unit, once phased out, has returned to the historical stage after multiple rounds of genetic optimization.

The reappearing Wind God was even larger, with a wingspan exceeding fifty meters, and it had been given some aerogel material, making it more agile.

At the same time, a new energy absorption and supply system has been added, allowing it to replenish itself with electricity generated by friction when passing through clouds. This makes its endurance amazing, and it can even fly continuously in the air for nearly ten days.

The New Wind God also features Optical Camouflage and radio wave refraction systems, allowing it to evade most radar scans. Additionally, its enhanced field protection ignores air resistance, enabling it to fly even faster.

The strategic role of the New Wind God is to establish an aerial platform in the stratosphere to provide air support to ground troops at any time. It does not have great offensive capabilities, but its spacious back can carry other types of troops to cooperate with it.

The New Wind God, with its added features, is naturally expensive and belongs to the elite unit category. Although it still has some shortcomings, the Swarm needs such a combat unit to fill the radiation gap between the ground and tens of thousands of meters in the air.

As the Swarm attacked Duoqi's underground base, two New Wind God were already hovering above it. When Duoqi's ships appeared, the Sky Striker they carried also locked onto their respective targets.

The prototype of the Sky Striker was a self-aiming, lock-on, directional jet-powered impact Flying Bug, also known as Kamikaze Bug. It once carried out a bloody massacre of wild Pterosaur on the Origin Star, aboard the Wind God.

In principle, it is also an old partner of Wind God.

The old version of the Kamikaze Bug used sonic targeting, which was ineffective against slow-moving wild Pterosaur. However, the advanced mechanical creations of interstellar civilizations fly at speeds far exceeding the speed of sound, rendering the sonic targeting system unusable.

Therefore, the rammer's target acquisition system was switched to a more advanced scanning radar, which, while not the most cutting-edge model, was still sufficient to make these aircraft nowhere to hide.

In addition, the segmented acceleration system using air cannons used by the Kamikaze Bug was outdated. Therefore, Rowan replaced them with a custom-designed plasma Propulsion Module.

This Propulsion Module is a heavily modified version; it can instantly drain all the energy from the Kamikaze Bug, propelling it to a terrifying speed.

In pursuit of instantaneous bursts of power, they completely disregard any long-term consequences.
