There was a distortion of the air and a faint sound of engine airflow, and then a cloud of dust was stirred up. Finally, when everything gradually calmed down, in the hidden corner of this abandoned mine in the mountains outside Huagai Xinggui Market, a plane
The Banshee fighter jet, painted in black and red, equipped with two turbofan engines and recoil rockets, finally lost its optical stealth state and revealed its original shape.
The Banshee fighter is an aerial vehicle used by the Terran army in the Koprulu Sector to perform missions within the planet. It abandons the traditional high-performance particle engine and is instead equipped with a cheaper and more reliable twin-turbofan engine.
, at the same time, it also removed the air-to-air weapons and instead equipped with more powerful air-to-ground missiles and the DN51 device that can make the aircraft optically invisible. These designs allow the Banshee to maintain low cost, high maneuverability, strong stealth and surprise.
Its many features with excellent defense performance make it perform very well in tactical strike missions, and it is positioned as a light air-to-ground support fighter that can perform rapid transfer and support.
Of course, due to their stealth, reliability, ability to be invisible and difficult to be discovered by the enemy, etc., they are often used by ghost agents as multi-purpose vehicles for sneaking behind enemy lines and conducting special operations. There are even a number of modified models for this reason.
Later, it was equipped with a variety of combat capabilities and purpose-built aircraft.
"ha!"
(｀)
And now, a small figure wearing a red and white ghost suit jumped out cheeringly from the cockpit of such a banshee fighter plane.
That’s right!
The person who piloted such a Banshee fighter plane and landed quietly in this abandoned mine like an invisible ghost and successfully landed was none other than Anne Bennie!
Because Xiaobai will be landing soon. Although that thing can also be invisible, it is still a bit big. In order not to be discovered by the demons who are killing crazily on this planet, it is better to be able to arrive in advance.
After some activities and play, Annie of course needs to come down in advance to investigate and clean up.
Of course, playing is the most important thing, and everything else is incidental, just like the wriggling little bear hanging on her waist, which is also incidental.
(…)
(￢￢.)
"So!"
()
"That place should be here, right?"
(Д≡д)!?
After cheering, while muttering and asking questions to herself, Anne certainly did not forget about the business so quickly, and her joyful eyes began to scan around in a serious manner.
"Huh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
soon!
Her eyes swept across the mine, which was filled with abandoned equipment and rusty steel equipment, and she successfully discovered corpses scattered everywhere, as well as traces of battles that took place not long ago.
For example, those bullet holes, explosion craters, fragments broken and stuck in the wall, the hideous cutting gaps left by various claws and energy weapons on the rusted steel equipment, etc.
Of course, there must be those messy footprints, bloodstains, broken human corpses, and various abandoned weapons and vehicles that extend toward the depths of the mine.
"Didn't you say there's no one here?"
(ー`ー)
Through observation, Annie discovered that the blood stains were still very fresh, and, ah, they were still spreading towards the depths of the huge dark mine pit in the distance that was as big as a steel factory.
In that case, she didn't need to think too much to come up with this picture: Not long before her arrival, there had been a group of organized soldiers and refugees fighting while retreating into the huge cave in front of them.
, in an abandoned mine like an underground factory, and there were a large number of terrifying enemies behind them, so they left many traces of battles along the way as well as messy corpses that were brutally murdered by some unknown demonic creature.
?
"really!"
(ˇˇ)
"You also said that there is no one here. You know, you really can't believe what strangers say!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Listening to the faint gunshots, battle cries and roars belonging to some kind of monster that were still coming from the huge mine, and then thinking of what a certain guy lying naked in the infirmary had promised, Anne thought
I couldn't help but curse with some disdain.
"there……"
(°ー°〃)
"It should be the Guiba Market that guy mentioned, and the demons pouring out of the subspace, right?"
(~)
Looking at the giant city in the interstellar era with flames soaring into the sky in the distance, roars of fighting rising one after another, and surrounded by huge tentacle shadows, Anne's brows couldn't help but frown slightly.
obviously!
That bad guy, that is, the young lady named Wang Qing, the people in the market that the other party mentioned are indeed not completely dead, and the tenacious resistance is still continuing. As for whether it is because of the tenacious struggle of human beings or because of
There were too many people, and the number of demons coming out of the subspace was not enough to prevent them all from dying, so she had no idea for the time being.
But anyway, she only knew that the fighting in that city was much more intense than in this abandoned mine, and those who escaped into the mine most likely escaped from that city?
"All right!"
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas
"No matter what, let's go in and take a look first!"
()
Finally, looking at the huge interstellar city with flames soaring into the sky in the distance, and then looking back at the dark mine and the increasingly quiet sound of fighting inside, Annie finally decided to go into the mine to take a look and eliminate the demons inside first.
Let’s talk about cleanliness.
As for the city in the distance...
There are hundreds of millions of people and tens of thousands of demons there, so where can a mere ghost agent like her, the Head of State Anne, be able to help?
After all, it is impossible for her to directly guide the fusion strike and drop all the fusion bombs carried by Xiaobai into that city. Therefore, she will solve the recent troubles first, and then wait for Xiaobai and the others to land, and then watch
Seeing how to deal with it in the future is her most correct choice at the moment.
"ha!"
()
After making the decision, she cheered again, and then activated the invisibility device on the ghost suit, causing herself and the parked Banshee fighter jet to instantly disappear into the air in bursts of distorted light.
'Roar!'
‘Ouch’
Sudden!
At the moment when Annie was invisible, two giant red ferocious demon-like monsters with wings on their backs rushed over not far away?
Although they did not have time to discover Anne and the Banshee fighter jet parked not far away by her, the scales on their bodies shone with a terrifying sheen and the fangs in their mouths were even more ferocious under the moonlight, but they cunningly attacked Anne just now.
The last ones that appeared stopped and sniffed something in the air with their noses.
Zhila!!
However, before they could smell the heat source engine of the fighter jet and the unique milky smell of human cubs and find their target, their stretched necks and the heads above their necks were instantly illuminated by a wave of light.
The single-molecule light blade of red light cut off the neck in an instant.
puff!
puff!!
As a result, two huge and ugly heads stared at the copper bell-like eyes and fell to the ground one after another with vicious blood. The vicious blood actually corroded the already filthy sandy ground.
There was a sizzling sound.
"cut!"
(ˉ▽￣~)~~
"That's it?"
(ˇεˇ)
"My strength doesn't seem to be that great either!"
()
Then, Anne appeared again and looked at the two demons who looked a bit like one of her former pets, 'Big Pineapple', but were far, far away in strength.
He curled his lips in disdain and turned his head.
"never mind!"
()
"It seems there's nothing left outside, so I'd better go in and take a look first!"
o(▽｀ o)
Then, after easily solving the two demons from the subspace, as the single-molecule light blade in Annie's hand disappeared again, and as she restarted the invisibility function of the ghost suit, only small, stained objects appeared on the ground.
Following the footprints of the devil's blood, he walked step by step towards the dark cave.
…
At this time, just as Anne had deduced, in the deepest part of the abandoned mine, in the sultry and turbid mine storage area about 300 meters underground, the sound of gunshots and shouts,
Howls and explosions were coming one after another.
Da da da!
‘Uhhhh!!!’
'quick!'
'Keep firing!!'
'Stop them!'
boom!
Boom! Boom!
'Hold it!'
'You must defend this place!'
‘Fight them!!’
In a long straight passage area that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, a group of soldiers and armed civilians with mixed equipment and different ownership were roaring behind the temporary defenses built up of strips of scrap steel and some mining equipment.
Pour firepower or throw bombs into the dark passage ahead, letting the bullets and explosion shock waves contain the various demons and certain demons that are following them in and attacking their defense line.
These twisted psyker monsters.
Thanks to the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain, the monsters that had been chasing them since they returned to the market, followed them here, and killed at least half of their soldiers and refugees were finally defeated by them.
It was successfully resisted here.
Da da da!
boom!
Boom! Boom!
However, judging from the chaotic and somewhat hysterical sound of gunshots and explosions, their situation was not good. It was unclear how long they could withstand it.
After all, those demons coming out of subspace and those twisted psykers all have powerful special abilities. For ordinary soldiers like them, even if they have the advantage of terrain, it is not easy to stop the opponent.
.
As the battle continued, as the chaotic lighting beams swept towards the rear from time to time, it was not difficult to see under the bright light. At this time, behind their fortifications, there was a downward staircase, and that
There seems to be a larger space below the stairs, with a lot of suppressed noises and cries?
And that is indeed the case!
Below the stairs is the underground storage area of ​​a mine.
At this time, in this dark, spacious, dilapidated and old area, at least several thousand refugees were gathering in the dark corners, shivering and looking around in confusion.
"quick!"
"Push harder!"
"Follow the rails!"
“Let’s work hard together!!”
At the end of the storage area is a heavy steel door.
At this time, a group of soldiers wearing power armor uniforms were pushing and shoving with all their strength under the shouts of an officer, while dozens or hundreds of strong refugees were also pushing with all their strength.
Helping, eager to open the steel door as soon as possible and escape.
But unfortunately, they tried for a long time to no avail. No matter how hard they pushed or how hard they tried, the heavy steel door would not move at all, and it just stood in front of all of them.
"Stop first!"
"Is it reversed?"
"Which way is the guide rail heading?"
"quick!"
“Go and confirm again!!”
As a last resort, seeing that there was no progress, one of the officers had to stop and signal the soldiers to continue investigating the cause.
And as the group of soldiers wearing power armor stopped and continued to think of ways to operate, as the searchlight beams on the chests of their bulky power armor suits began to sway continuously as they walked, when the light beams
Occasionally, when one shines into the shadows on both sides of the gate, it is not difficult to see a large group of refugees huddled and crowded around the abandoned equipment.
At this time, the refugees just huddled numbly in the dark shadows, as if they were the most insignificant existence in the world. They could only be seen when the searchlights on the chests of soldiers wearing power armor shone from time to time.
That face was filled with fear and numbness.
Judging from their grimy and haggard faces, it is not difficult to guess what the people who have survived to this day have experienced during the period when the psykers went crazy and the warp demons invaded.
"Report!"
"Sir, the direction is correct, just push this way!"
"Look!"
"There are guide rails and hydraulic devices both above and here!"
"The direction must be correct!"
"very good!"
"Everyone come here!"
"Keep pushing, you have to push it away!"
"Hurry up!!"
After some inspection and re-confirmation, the group of soldiers and the young and strong men began to gather at the gate again under the officer's scolding, and then once again began to push and shout with force and slogans.
Unfortunately……
The door that connects to the freight channel and allows thousands of people to escape as long as it is pushed open is unknown. It is not known whether it is completely corroded or completely damaged, or whether it was given to the owner by something.
?
Anyway!
With the combined efforts of everyone, although the iron door, which weighed at least dozens or even hundreds of tons, did make a dull crunching sound, it still could not be opened, even for those wearing
The same goes for the soldiers in armored power suits who have set their respective outputs to the maximum value.
"Damn it!"
"What's going on with this broken door?"
"Damn it!"
"What the hell!"
"What should I do now?"
"How do I know what to do?"
"..."
Soon, the soldiers who realized that their efforts were in vain began to retreat with curses, sweat and curses intertwined, accompanied by the sound of fierce firefights coming from the upper level of the storage cave, and shouts of beating.
The shouts of death and the repeated human screams made the atmosphere at the scene become depressing once again.
"second lieutenant!"
"Let's just blast it!"
"blasting?"
"No! No!"
"How many people would die if there was an explosion in this kind of space?!"
"quick!"
"Think of another way!"
Immediately afterwards, a soldier came forward to propose blasting, but was rejected by the officer.
At this time, in the dark shadows, thousands of refugees are waiting tremblingly...
They were hiding in the shadows on both sides of the gate, huddled in the corners of the stairs, or hiding around the abandoned mining equipment. Their eyes were full of fear and confusion, and their helpless faces were on the chests of the soldiers.
Under the illumination of the searchlight in front of him, he revealed a pale color that made people feel a little frightened and desperate.
"Why are you still here?"
"What's the matter with you?"
"Xu Daudao!"
"Haven't you opened that broken door yet?!"
finally!
When the soldiers and men were at a loss what to do, an officer covered in gunpowder smoke and blood stains strode down the stairs in long strides, and the angry voice he blurted out before he even arrived was full of urgency.
and worries.
"Those monsters are coming down!"
"We can't stand it anymore!"
"Are you fucking still wasting your time here?!"
Seeing that the door was still standing there, and seeing the group of soldiers and men looking at each other in dismay, the officer stepped forward angrily, and shouted angrily at the officer who was in charge of pushing the door open.
"no."
"We tried it!"
The lieutenant named Xu Bingdao had a troubled expression on his face, and then he explained angrily:
"This thing is completely rusted and we can't open it!"
"In this case, we can only blast or cut it. Exploding will be very dangerous, but we don't have laser cutters or other attacks right now!"
"I need more time to imagine other ways!"
Then, Xu Daring could only shake his head in frustration, and his protesting voice was full of irritability and helplessness.
"more time?"
"there is none left!"
"Listen, I don't care what method you use,"
"Anyway!"
"There is only one road here! You must open it before all the people left above us die, and then take our families and these refugees out of here!"
"have you understood?!"
After saying that, the officer didn't waste any time. He just walked to the last supply area aside and rummaged around.
soon!
When he put on several pieces of heavy weapons and equipment, and carried the last two large boxes of ammunition and heavy grenades, the lonely and tragic figure quickly disappeared on the dark stairs ahead.
Da da!
boom!
‘Whoaaah!!!’
'Roar!!!'
Ta! Ta! Ta! Ta!
Boom! Boom!
boom!!
soon!
From the upper level of the cave came bursts of more intense firefights, screams, roars, and the terrifying roars of unknown creatures. Those sounds mixed together, echoing closer and closer in this darkness.
in the warehouse.
"..."
Finally, looking at the soldiers who were still busy and studying the door, and looking at the helpless crowds around him, the officer named Xu Bingdao finally flashed a firm and decisive light in his eyes, and then he gritted his teeth and roared and issued his order.
A certain command that I have never dared to do:
"do not care!"
"quick!"
"Blast directly!"
If possible, he obviously doesn't want to use such helpless means, but now they have no choice.
"Wha, what?"
"But!"
"Sir!"
"We don't have melta weapons. If we explode directly in this kind of space, many people will die!"
After hearing the order, one of the soldiers was obviously hesitant and exclaimed to confirm again.
You know, in such a confined space, if you want to directly explode such a heavy steel door, the explosive energy required will undoubtedly be very terrifying!
And when the door is blown open, even if it is a directional blast, the metal turbulence and shock wave splashing in this confined space will be enough to kill half or more of the people here under the sweep and bounce.
It's torn into pieces, that's no joke!
"I know!"
"That's better than everyone dying!"
Officer Xu boldly pushed the soldier away and continued to roar and order:
"quick!"
"Get ready to blast!"
"Everyone!"
"Get away from the gate area immediately!"
"Try to find cover and hide!"
"Hurry up!"
So, under Xu's bold shouts and orders, those soldiers who still wanted to say something had to bite the bullet and quickly got busy with their companions, and began to carry the heavy steel door that was enough to blow into pieces.
Explosives for the gate.
At this time, after hearing the officer's decision, seeing the actions of the soldiers, and knowing what was going to happen next, the refugees naturally clamored and started to get up from the ground and look for nearby bunkers that could cover their bodies.
.
At the same time, the helpless noises, cries and shouts began to make a noise here, making the originally silent scene suddenly become chaotic.
Those refugees, trembling and crying, pushed and moved away from the steel gate. While moving and looking for shelter, stampedes and some physical conflicts naturally and inevitably occurred, mixed with the prayers of some women.
, the man's angry curses, and the helpless wails of the children, filled the air in this originally closed and dull warehouse with an atmosphere of ominousness and despair.
suddenly!
‘Uhhhhh!!!’
'No!!!'
'withdraw!!'
Da da da!
'Roar!!!!'
Bursts of intense gunfire came from above, accompanied by shrill screams and horrifying roars, and then those sounds soon stopped abruptly.
"!!"
Upon seeing this, Xu DaDa reacted immediately. He first glanced in the direction of the stairs, and then, when he heard the sound of an increasingly rapid running, he took a deep breath and screamed in despair.
shouted:
"Everyone!"
"Ready to fight!"
"Those monsters..."
"Here they come!"
It's good now, they no longer care about blasting, because it's too late.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
After hearing the order, the soldiers who were placing explosives also discarded what they were holding, picked up their weapons and ran to the stairs to occupy a favorable position, and aimed their weapons in the direction of the stairs, and soon they
The trigger was pulled.
Da da da!
Boom! Boom!
Almost instantly, all the weapons in the hands of the dozens of remaining soldiers were blasted towards the passage of the cave.
In an instant, the roar of bullets, explosions, fierce firefights close at hand, screams, roars and roars of unknown meaning began to echo in this huge and dark cave.
Of course!
At the same time, there were bursts of dazzling flashes from various vehicles, armored suits, and weapon muzzles, as well as the chaotic behavior of the refugees under those flashes.
Da da da!
Boom! Boom!
In this way, a battle of life and death unfolded in this dark mine.
And Xu boldly clenched his weapon and stood among the remaining soldiers, looking resolutely at the inhuman creatures that were wandering at the top of the stairs and trying to rush in from time to time, letting his bullets hit them intensively.
Vicious corrosive blood exploded from their bodies, forcing them to retreat into the darkness again.
But he knew that it was useless, they might not be able to survive today's level.
Da da da!
But as a soldier, he still pulled the trigger tightly and continuously bombarded the outcropping monsters with metal ammunition.
Because fighting is their mission and their last glory, they have no choice!
"!!"
In the chaos, when Xu DaDabao finished shooting a magazine and was stroking his armor suit to find a spare magazine, a young female refugee suddenly rushed to his side and grabbed Xu DaDao tightly.
The armored arm was trying to find ammunition, and at the same time, it was crying and asking for help:
"please!"
"Please help me!"
"Woo..."
"My child, who was here just now..."
"But I can't find her."
The woman begged with a look of panic on her face, completely ignoring the current situation of everyone.
"..."
Hearing this, Xu Dadan, who was just about to break away from the other party, just looked at the other party silently, with mixed feelings in his heart.
If he could, he really wanted to say: everyone here, including him, whether they are old people or children, soldiers or civilians, will all die here soon. Even if he helps
The other party found the child, but what's the use?
At this time, the monster's attack became more and more intense, with the sound of gunfire, explosions, shouts and screams intertwined one after another.
suddenly!
Phew!
Before Xu could boldly break away from the woman's hand to comfort or scold her, he felt a cold claw instantly pierce the back of his head and pierce out of his mouth.
At that moment, his eyes widened in an instant, and he subconsciously stared angrily at the young woman who let go of his hand in surprise.
At this time, Xu DaDa saw his own shadow reflected in her frightened eyes.
But soon, the shadow gradually became blurry, and was replaced by a huge and ferocious demon that pulled out its claws and tore off his head, then roared at the woman and bit it off.
‘!!’
‘Yeah yeah yeah!!!!!!’
The screams stopped suddenly, because the upper half of the woman's body was instantly bitten off, and the blood, internal organs and lower body were directly thrown aside by the demon.
'Ooooooooo!!!'
As the eardrum-piercing roar sounded, the last soldier at the front finally fell.
When the last guns have been silenced, when more monsters rush under the stairs, when countless refugees in the darkness let out shriller, helpless and endless cries and wailings for help, finally,
The gluttonous feast of flesh and blood that only belongs to those demons finally began to take place three hundred meters underground in the mine.
