The helicopter engine roared.
Sitting in the cabin, Jiang Chen was doing a final check on his equipment. What he was wearing at the moment was the newly manufactured T-4 powered armor prototype.
With its jet black paint and thick front armor, this armor known for its defensive power looks much more reliable than the T-3.
"The weapon system is normal, the power system is normal..."
The cursor flickered as Jiang Chen skillfully inspected the various instruments of the power armor. Although the operation interface of the T-4 is slightly different from that of the T-3, it is still generally the same.
The cursor in the field of vision moved with the focus of the pupils, confirming that all systems were operating normally. Jiang Chen grinned "hehe" at the T-3 powered armor opposite.
Of course, through the iron box, he knew that she would not be able to see it.
"Are you a child?" Sun Jiao teased.
"Huh?"
"Next time you giggle, remember to turn off the communication channel." Sun Jiao continued to complain mercilessly.
Yao Yao, who was sitting next to Jiang Chen, covered her mouth and laughed secretly. Although she was not wearing power armor, she still had a headset on her ear, so she could naturally hear the conversation between the two.
Zhao Gang, wearing carbon nano armor, sat there without saying a word, holding the ghost sniper rifle. From the expressionless face, Jiang Chen couldn't tell whether he was completely unresponsive or suppressing a smile.
As for the other soldiers wearing two powered armors, Jiang Chen guessed that they didn't dare to laugh either.
"Yao Yao, put on the protective clothing." Sun Jiao instructed.
We are almost entering the high radiation zone.
"Well!" Yao Yao took out the gray one-piece protective suit from under the seat very sensibly, stepped into it, and slowly put it on.
The mission goal is simple, airborne to the Geological Bureau to obtain data, and then evacuate via helicopter.
Combat units: 4 power armors, one sniper, and one hacker.
When operating in a city center with a high zombie density, the numerical advantage is useless. Because no matter how many people there are, it is impossible to outnumber the zombies, unless an army is directly sent to crush them. Of course, just for a resource distribution map. It is obviously unnecessary to go to war over this.
Because of the welded Type 50 electromagnetic gun, this YZ-51 can only carry six units of power armor (not including the crew). Since the T-4 weighs nearly twice as much as the T-3, it is already difficult to fit these six people into it.
Considering that this operation may encounter Death Claws or more difficult alien species, the combat effectiveness of the people performing this operation must not be too low.
But here's the trouble. Although there are many soldiers in the Fishbone Base, they are basically all slaves. Although he has received military training, his training is basically in conventional combat. Although the survivors in Qingpu were all veterans who were good at hunting alien species, Jiang Chen had never let them learn how to operate power armor.
Considering the information security level of the Geological Bureau, Yao Yao must keep up. Don't look at how young this little girl is. Originally, her computer talent was not bad. After more than a year of eagerly absorbing knowledge, her hacking skills are now unmatched by anyone in the entire base.
Although Sun Jiao objected to Jiang Chen, the leader, following him, and said that she would protect Yao Yao's safety, just like she did every time she broke into the treasury. But Jiang Chen was still worried. After all, this place was close to the city center, and the risk factor was naturally not comparable to that of banks in Qingpu, so he still insisted on following him.
"The target location has been reached." The driver's voice sounded on the public channel.
"I'm number one."
Zhao Gang stood up from his seat, took off the slow-drop backpack on the cabin wall and threw it behind his back. Walk towards the hatch.
The cabin door opened, and the air flow rolled in.
Yao Yao grasped Jiang Chen's hand tightly and narrowed her cute big eyes.
Zhao Gang fist bumped with the gunner in the cabin, and then jumped off without any delay.
The one who takes the first step will land on the top of a skyscraper one thousand meters away from the Geological Bureau. While providing sniper support to the team, he will also direct air artillery support.
The hatch did not close, and the helicopter continued to fly forward for one thousand meters, and then hovered directly above the Geological Bureau.
"Get ready to go." Jiang Chen shouted on the public channel, then squeezed Yao Yao's little hand, stood up and walked towards the cabin door.
"First time skydiving?" Sun Jiao asked in the private channel.
"I jumped countless times in the virtual reality training ground."
Jiang Chen grinned. Then he followed the steps of the person in front and jumped down from this kilometer.
The biting cold wind swept across the armor's surface, and the roar of air currents filled his ears.
Unlike training in virtual reality, there is no file loading here. Once you fail, there is no chance to come back.
"Height 900 meters." Sun Jiao's calm voice came from the public channel.
"700 meters—"
"500 meters."
"Open the descent device."
Almost at the same time, Jiang Chen suddenly started the vortex engine behind him.
A blue arc of light spurted out, quickly catching the power armor's high-speed fall. The scenery on the ground gradually zoomed in. Through the mask, Jiang Chen could already see the dense group of zombies wandering on the street.
Nearby is the airport, which before the war was a high-traffic area. Those dead bodies that will not be cleaned up in the future. They are all breeding grounds for X1 bacterial parasites.
The output power of the vortex engine had reached its maximum. Jiang Chen adjusted his landing attitude and stepped heavily on the ground with his feet.
boom!
Cement chips were scattered everywhere, and two pits were made in the concrete road.
The zombie cast his gaze over in a daze, and then his eyes gradually became filled with a bloodthirsty light. Although daytime is not their home field, it does not mean that they will let go of the living creatures in their mouths.
Not daring to stop, Jiang Chen raised his left arm without any delay, sweeping down the zombies that rushed towards him like a hammer.
The triangular barrel rotated and bullets shot out like raindrops, instantly mowing down a large area of the surrounding zombies.
At the same time, three other power armors also landed.
"Break into the Geological Bureau." As soon as she stood firm, Sun Jiao immediately ordered.
"learn."
After remembering the three responses, the four people quickly rushed towards the Geological Bureau.
Since it was on the outer edge of the city center and the extent of damage to the building was uncertain, the landing point for the power armor could not be chosen on the roof of the Geological Bureau. At the same time, considering the threat of alien species with long-range attack power such as slingers and acid bugs, the helicopter could not get too close to the ground, so the four people could only airborne on the street in such a rough way.
After rushing into the gate, Jiang Chen, who was in charge of the rearguard, raised his foot and kicked the zombies that were chasing him to the other side of the street. He raised his machine gun without any delay, and raised his hand to shoot a hail of bullets at the group of corpses.
At the same time, one thousand meters away.
Zhao Gang lay on the roof of the building, his crosshairs aimed at the group of corpses that were rushing towards the Geological Bureau.
In the field of vision, a three-meter-tall slinger with slender legs and a huge belly took two steps towards the door of the Geological Bureau, and then threw out the zombie larvae in its hand.
The baby-sized zombie sped toward Jiang Chen like a cannonball, but was dismembered into several pieces by bullets in the air.
"Secret location 1100 meters."
Zhao Gang took a deep breath and pulled the trigger.
boom!
After crossing a distance of 1,100 meters, the sniper bullet penetrated the back of the thrower's neck without any suspense.
Black blood splattered everywhere, and the thrower died instantly. At the same time, his stomach exploded, and baby zombies emerged from it in twisted postures, letting out shrill screams.
This is one of the toughest monsters in the city center. These zombie larvae will expand rapidly after contacting the target, and then explode, releasing a high density of zombie bacteria. Although this attack method is not very useful against the "three defenses" of nuclear, biological and chemical power armor, it is still the most difficult to deal with compared to other clumsy "miscellaneous soldiers".
Not far away, several more slingers were moving in the direction of the Geological Bureau. There are even two meat mountains holding street lights in their hands, walking towards this side with cumbersome steps.
"Is it almost there?"
Seeing Jiang Chen's gesture, Zhao Gang understood, pointed the crosshair at the dense place of corpses, and turned on the switch of the laser beacon with his finger.
"The 10kg mass bomb is loaded."
"Fire the gun-" Zhao Gang said in a deep voice.
With an explosion that penetrated the sound barrier, a mass bomb fell from the sky and hit the center of the corpse group.
boom!
The fractured shrapnel shot out in all directions, like cutting wheat, and it instantly fell down a piece.
The dust dispersed and Jiang Chen and others had retreated into the building.
After losing its target, the zombies became restless and returned to their original sluggish appearance.
"A direct hit, a beautiful hit." Zhao Gang grinned and turned off the laser beacon.
As planned, this task was not difficult. (.)
