Although Prometheus is a lone star, the nearest star is a few light-years away, and there is no day-night change, but it is not that darkness has nothing to do with the faint light emitted by the surrounding gaseous nebula that illuminates Prometheus. , Let the sky always look like dusk.
Achilled Canyon is located to the south of the Polaris base and is the deepest canyon in the vicinity.
This is also a constantly changing canyon.
In fact, Prometheus is a constantly changing planet. Because the formation time is very short, the crust of Prometheus has not yet fully formed, and geological activities are very frequent. In the past thousand years, the depth of the Achilled Canyon has increased by hundreds of meters and the area has nearly doubled. In time, this gorge will split the entire crust, and will eventually be completely swallowed by magma gushing out of the center of the earth.
Of course, the current Achilled Canyon is also not peaceful.
Compared with the dim light emitted by the nebula, the red light from the canyon is very bright. That is the fire, to be precise, the crimson fire from the hot magma.
In this gorge, which is more than five hundred kilometers long and more than ten kilometers wide, is densely packed with temporary camps built by the Silicon Magic Corps. Every bit of light is a camp, and in every camp there are thousands or even tens of thousands of Simei soldiers from a legion.
Here, how many Silicon Charm fighters are there!
However, all the Simei fighters stayed in the camp, and even the patrol troops in charge of the security only went back and forth between the camps through specially constructed channels.
Obviously, for silicon-based life, the environment of Prometheus is even worse.
To put it bluntly, it's too cold here.
Most of the time, the surface temperature of Prometheus is around minus 200 degrees Celsius, and the temperature is also below minus 150 degrees Celsius. Even if there is a nebula storm, that is, ionized gas gathers together and releases the contained electric energy, the temperature near the ground is about minus 50 degrees Celsius. For silicon-based life whose body temperature exceeds 1,000 degrees Celsius and the temperature of the living environment is around 2,000 degrees Celsius, Prometheus is simply a cold hell. Even the most powerful Silicon Magic warrior, if exposed directly to the outside, will freeze immediately, lose mobility, and die in just a few minutes due to the loss of heat in the body.
To survive, Silicon Magic Warriors must stay in the camp.
Those flames are the light emitted by the heat source.
Each camp has a heat source driven by the original energy converter, which can keep the temperature in the camp above 1,000 degrees Celsius by melting the rock. In order to avoid heat loss, all camps have built up energy barriers, and built channels wrapped by energy barriers between camps.
After careful observation for a while, Yang Yi could only count clearly that there were almost a thousand campsites in the canyon.
Although not all legions have 10,000 Silicon Charm fighters, for example, the Legion with Iron Armor Warfare has only 1,000 fighters. Only the corps formed by the weaker units like the humanoid rock demon are equipped with 10,000 fighters according to the standard , But in this huge canyon, there are also millions of Silicon Charm fighters.
What is this concept
The number of human officers and soldiers guarding the North Star base is only 30,000.
Obviously, as long as the enemy is willing, they can lay down the North Star base at any time. Not to mention the use of all troops, as long as one-tenth of the troops is invested, the entire Polaris base can be wiped out.
So, what are the enemies waiting for
"A small team is in place."
"The second team is in place."
"The third team is in place."
…
Reports from the captains came from the earphones, and the raid has been deployed, just waiting for Yang Yi to give orders.
Although Yang Yi was only a major officer and had no official position, he proposed the idea of the raid and received the support of Lin Feng and Jackson. Shen Chengwen also pushed forward and let Yang Yi be in charge of the raid. He led the officers and soldiers of the strategic squadron. Launch an attack.
Lin Fengchao and Yang Yi nodded slightly without saying much.
"According to the plan, the first round of attacks will be launched in five minutes." Yang Yi did not hesitate and gave the order to start the operation.
After that, Yang Yi turned around and nodded to Jackson and others who were hiding behind, so that they too were ready. At this moment, Lin Feng contacted Carl who was ambushing nearby and asked him to prepare for action in accordance with the battle plan. Although Yang Yi did not intend to bring the defenders of the Polaris base, Carl insisted on participating in the operation and selected a group of elite officers and soldiers. Besides, guarding Prometheus was originally their duty, and they were more familiar with the environment near the base. After Lin Feng agreed, Yang Yi couldn't object. In any case, the Prometheus star belongs to the first theater, but Yang Yi and the others are from the third theater.
Five minutes, say long is not long, say short is not short.
When the first explosion occurred, Yang Yi realized that five minutes had passed and the attack had begun.
Immediately afterwards, explosions occurred one after another.
It was the officers and soldiers of the strategic squadron led by Shen Chengwen that shot.
The target of the attack was the heat source in the various camps. Shen Chengwen they used a wire-guided missile, to be precise, a missile controlled by the original energy. This type of missile has a wire through which the officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance group use their original energy to control the flight direction of the missile. After breaking through the energy barrier of the camp, the missile is out of control and accelerates to the highest speed in a very short period of time for the final sprint. At this time, even if the enemy discovers the missile, it cannot be intercepted, let alone prevent the missile from focusing on the target. Although limited by the carrying capacity of officers and soldiers, the power of this missile is not very great, but it is enough to blow up the heat source after hitting it.
The strikes were very precise. After each explosion, a heat source was destroyed, which meant that a camp was destroyed.
In an instant, the heat sources in dozens of camps were destroyed.
Now, the pot was fried in the canyon.
Although there is energy barrier protection, the temperature in the camp will not drop immediately, but without a heat source, the heat in the air will be absorbed by the ground surface, causing the temperature to drop sharply. In just a few minutes at most, the temperature in the camp will drop from more than 1,000 degrees Celsius to below 500 degrees Celsius. Although for humans, carbon-based life, the temperature of 500 degrees Celsius is still as hot as hell, but for silicon-based life, as long as the temperature drops to 500 degrees Celsius, it will be disabled, just like human beings exposed to the cold wind. Similarly, loss of mobility in just a few minutes, fainting in ten minutes at most, and even death due to shock due to the cold.
In the camp that was attacked, hundreds of Silicon Magic warriors rushed out of the barracks, fleeing like headless flies.
Most of the Silicon Charm fighters flocked to the passage leading to other camps, but the passage was too narrow to allow the Silicon Charm fighters of one legion to pass through at the same time.
In order to survive, no one would give in.
At the same time, the nearby camps that were not attacked also rioted. Some camps even closed their passages to prevent Silicon Magic soldiers from nearby camps from entering.
It's simple, and energy is limited.
Although the energy barrier prevents the loss of heat through the air, it cannot prevent the loss of heat through the ground, and every living Silicon Magic warrior is absorbing heat. The result of this is that the heat output from the heat source in each camp is only enough for the Silicon Charm fighters in the camp to consume.
Accepting Silicon Magic fighters from other camps is tantamount to putting yourself in danger.
Besides, the sudden influx of hundreds of Silicon Charm fighters will definitely cause chaos and serious consequences.
Don't forget, most of the Silicon Charm fighters are simple-minded, well-developed limbs, and have a grumpy temper, even in peacetime, let alone when life and death are at stake.
A few minutes later, the second round of attacks arrived.
It was still the strategic squadron led by Shen Chengwen, but the target was the camp at the other end of the canyon.
The two attacks were like lighting two fires in a haystack, and the chaos and commotion spread rapidly, and the whole valley became lively.
At this time, the big bang happened.
This time, it was the garrison led by Karl.
The explosion occurred on a cliff on the northeast side of the canyon. Thousands of tiny bombs projected on the canyon and drilled into the rock were detonated.
Although the explosion was far away from the camp, the damage caused was extremely terrifying.
Thousands of small bombs were detonated at the same time, the cliffs more than ten kilometers long were completely trampled, crushed rocks fell like raindrops, and more boulders rolled down into the canyon. Even if the Simei Warriors are extremely strong, they will be buried alive by the collapsed rocks.
The explosion point was in the middle of the canyon, and the falling rock cut the canyon in the middle.
In the canyon, some Silicon Charm fighters rushed out of the camp and fled, but they were frozen and stiff before they ran far, and then they were smashed into pieces by the falling boulders. More Silicon Charm warriors are hiding in the camp, but unfortunately, the energy barrier cannot withstand the collapsed boulders, and what awaits them is the end of being buried alive.
At this time, a group of Silicon Charm fighters flew out of the canyon.
All are warriors, and they are all warriors with a car!
The war will have the original energy converter, which can make an energy barrier, and can also move outside the camp.
Seeing this situation, Yang Yi gave Shen Chengwen and Karl a retreat order. They have completed the task, there is no need to fight hard with those warlords. Besides, the generals are very powerful, and probably only Shen Chengwen can compete with the generals, and even Karl is not qualified.
Inside the canyon, screamed again and again.
With the faint light, Yang Yi slipped down the hillside where he was hiding, followed by Lin Feng, Jackson and other original crews.
The previous attack was just to create chaos and make the enemy chaotic.
There are so many legions in the canyon, and they are not moving, let Yang Yi believe that the enemy must have made a big move, maybe it is opening a tunnel to the center of the earth. Just destroying dozens of camps and killing hundreds of thousands of Silicon Charm fighters cannot make the enemy abandon the attack on the North Star base. The enemy must be given a more weight-bearing blow, and the enemy suffers more casualties, so that the enemy can withdraw.
