Master of the Stars (The Lord of the Stars)

Chapter 1272: Build disasters (part 1)

In the past few months, "infrasound array" has become a sensitive word, undoubtedly because of hooking up with someone.

However, the "Eastern Defense Line Infrasound Array" shown in the current intelligence has qualifiers, but it does not need to be over-interpreted. It is just a relatively normal defensive weapon-it uses high-power infrasonic waves to kill aberrant species. , Um, in the actual combat environment, the main effect is to drive away.

Highly mobile, high-resistance, and even superb aberrations with superior survival wisdom, facing such a relatively heavy defensive array, they can still run away.

When it is difficult to focus accurately, if you want to cause powerful damage, even in the age of fusion energy, energy supply is only a small problem, and the limitations of the load-bearing materials must be considered.

Therefore, some military professionals even feel that when facing the wilderness, it can only be regarded as a large bird repellent at best. It is human beings who have overestimated its role in existence based on its own fragile conditions.

But the problem now is that the timing of Huaicheng's opening of the infrasonic array is really a bit delicate.

When the poisonous swamp area is in chaos, such behavior is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire. It is unlikely that the deformed species emerging from there will be retracted again, so according to the current situation, the direction of their cathartic rush is basically to go north to east...

The northern protrusion, which is already very obvious, is likely to continue to expand. Huaicheng has basically abandoned this direction in the past few years, but going there, it is almost the boundary of Xiacheng.

Such mental calculations belong to the category of conspiracy theory and have little practical significance. But one thing is that the current position of the observation team is really not good.

The distorted population that emerged from the poisonous swamp area was driven by the infrasound array in the west wing and spread in other directions, almost about to collide with them.

The depth area of ​​one or two hundred kilometers is really quite narrow under those high-mobility aberrant exchanges and conflicts.

When the corresponding information was followed up, the two waves of the Deep Blue Walker team released by the observation team felt the pressure. On Li Taisheng's side, the intersecting speed of the two arrows on the Dreamland Map was significantly reduced.

This is not first-hand information. The dream template collects and integrates the overflowing consciousness information flow, and there is still a process that will be somewhat lagging behind. At this time, it is continuously refreshing, and the integration of relevant consciousness information may not stop until midnight.

However, on another level, a large number of powerful aberrations infiltrated, forcibly raising the level of creatures under the coverage of the dream map. Panic, chaos, and even death situations will cause a larger-scale consciousness overflow. This information flows in the dream template. The rectification of the China Polytechnic Group helped Li Taisheng to grasp more abundant and hierarchical intelligence, including the poisonous marsh area that had not been clear before, which was also regarded as a windfall.

Li Taisheng locked the relevant area and thoughtfully: "I remember that the infrasound array in Huaicheng is a semi-underground structure."

Liu Seung-jae replied: "Yes, mainly for the underground labyrinth that extends beyond the Poisonous Marsh area, as well as the group of crocodiles inside..."

At this time, on the command channel, Mengtu released the latest distorted population distribution map, and once again emphasized the key information. The infrasonic array was not among them.

"A Class A target appeared in the Poison Marsh area. There is currently no first-hand information. It is inferred from the location and mode of action that it should be the toothed crocodile group.

"The combat team and the convoy should pay attention to the change of the route and try to stay away from the water network and tidal flat areas. All advance actions should be illuminated first, pay attention to signs and confirmations, and call for fire support at any time."

While releasing the information, Mandala also released the latest changes to the route.

The new route is more westward, tens of kilometers longer than the previous version, and it is obviously an attempt to bypass the front of the northern protrusion that is gradually becoming manic.

It was just that as the convoy advanced to the southwest, it had completely moved away from the topography of the central mountain range of the peninsula and entered the plain area where the river crisscrossed. Decades after the war, out of control and out of control, as well as the superposition of the general trend of global warming, turned the entire area into a large tidal flat terrain.

Now it is the rainy season and the river is flowing freely. For a team with good off-road performance, maintaining high mobility can still be achieved, but it is almost impossible to avoid the dangerous areas mentioned by Mandala.

Li Taisheng sighed silently, his mind scanned the dream map back and forth several times, then opened his eyes, and scanned the area covered by the searchlights emitted by the convoy through the window of the car.

Frankly speaking, he was also a little nervous...must be nervous.

After all, the A-type target mentioned by Mandala is most likely to be the toothed crocodile corps. In this kind of land-based environment in the northern part of the Great Golden Triangle, it is really a big trouble.

The word "tooth" in the "tooth crocodile corps" was originally a shame of shame, and its recognized source of distortion was an ancient and rare reptile known as "the shame of the crocodile." It was almost extinct before World War Three.

In other words, the "distortion age" is distorted and absurd.

People before the Third World War would never have imagined that after the era of distortion, the population that had to rely on artificial breeding to survive, under the stimulation of the new environment, would quickly undergo a horrible double change of rejuvenation and distortion.

In just a few decades, this race has become one of the hegemons of the Greater Golden Triangle, also known as the "dam destroyers" and "disaster architects". It is one of the chief culprits of the rapid collapse of water conservancy facilities in the Greater Golden Triangle.

These crocodiles like to dig holes and build nests on the shore. The dams are no exception. Coupled with the fact that they are in disrepair, there are not many traces of human civilization. As the dams above the river collapse, they are instantly destroyed by floods and become nothing. Significant mud coating.

In recent years, as the degree of distortion of the toothed crocodile has continued to deepen, the resistance to cold weather has also increased. Of course, there are also some regional civil wars-they are almost chasing the 800 mm precipitation line that continues to move northward due to global warming. The sphere of influence has been expanding to the north, and one of them has settled in the poisonous marsh area east of Huaicheng.

Under the dual effects of reversion and distortion, the tooth crocodile is not big, only about two to three meters, but it has the high mobility and adaptability of amphibians, excellent mouth and bite force, and amazing digestive system functions. , Can swallow prey more than five times its body weight, and has a certain ability to eat decay.

The swallowed food accumulates in the body. In addition to energy supply, a considerable part of it is converted into deadly toxins, which are transmitted through teeth, claws and even body surface glands.

Obviously, the individual combat power is already very powerful. This monster is still hiding in the dark at all times by virtue of its habit of drilling holes and coming out at night, and has become an assassin in this area.

And the huge underground labyrinth that they have built over the years in the river beach swamp area is also the most dangerous hunting and ambush circle for outsiders.

The deepest part of this kind of labyrinth can reach nearly one thousand meters. The cascade configuration, the connection with the groundwater system, and the combination of ground-penetrating missiles with nuclear weapons can hardly cause fundamental damage.

They even rely on the glandular toxins on their bodies to form a symbiotic relationship with a variety of aberrant fungi and plants. During the short hibernation period, they use a highly toxic environment to form a defense, which can be called forward, offensive, and defensive.

Experts in related fields often call this kind of underground labyrinth a kind of distortion nest, forming a unique environmental system of its own.

In the Greater Golden Triangle, the rapidly deteriorating environment during the global strategic counter-offensive against the wilderness is also directly related to the burrowing ability of these crocodiles.

A large number of "typical distortion nests" rely on these deep and complex underground labyrinths and special environments to obtain opportunities for rapid evolution and growth.

The “tooth crocodile corps” did not evolve super-powerful “extraordinary aberrations” within the population, but it was able to steadily win an upper niche in the Greater Golden Triangle. There are relationships.

A few years ago, Li Taisheng, as a new force of the Justice Order, was also sent to participate in this "joint counter-offensive" operation. Under the influence of various factors...the results are few and impressive.

The wheels of the off-road vehicle ran over the puddle area, splashing mud and water, and some of them hit the window glass, spots, and the outside scene became more and more invisible.

Li Taisheng's consciousness turned from his short memory. He chose a high-resolution electronic map, made several marks on it, and passed it to Mandala. The above are just a few possible dangerous areas currently displayed on the dream map.

Soon, the video of Mandala in the command car came over to express his gratitude to him and also to do further consultation.

"Master Li, is there any exact information on underground construction?"

"Not currently."

Mandala was obviously disappointed.

For a commander such as Mandala, the first thing to pay attention to is whether there is already a related maze construction in the relevant sensitive area for the large-scale emergence of the "tooth crocodile corps."

Otherwise, once you get caught, you will face a corps-style hunting by hundreds of ferocious crocodiles.

This kind of local cluster advantage was originally a masterpiece of the human army, but in the highly mobile "tooth crocodile corps", especially under the premise of the support of the underground labyrinth, the corresponding advantage is meaningless at all.

Li Taisheng asked back: "Did Huaicheng not provide it?"

"In recent years, they have lacked achievements in this field."

Someone laughed behind Mandala.

Of course, it was not against the nearby Mandala, but the ruler of Huaicheng hundreds of kilometers away.

At this time, there were a lot of people in the command car.

In addition to Meng Tu and his staff and technical team, Professor Ding Zhiying who needs to be protected is also there, and the other is the "Riwen Live Team" who also needs to be protected in name.

Maoyan was also asked to stay with him.

It was Dragon Seven who just laughed.

Maoyan is standing next to Professor Ding Zhiying with Ruiwen, watching the surveillance video of the Winged Blood Bat in the sealed box. Hearing this abrupt laughter, he turned his head and looked over.

Ruiwen also turned her face driven by her.
