Changkong Fighter

Chapter 319: Looking at the World

Swish, swish, swish! The laser swept overhead, and the soldiers couldn't even lift their heads.

Squidward, wielding heavy weapons, was suppressing the Australian army, while nearby, heavy land creatures like blue crabs were used to hold the line and draw Australian fire.

Once the Australian Army reveals its location, a laser will be used to mark it.

Squeak. The University of Tokyo's optical sensor zooms in, watching the battle unfold.

Australia used the lives of its soldiers to test the strength of an alien civilization's army when it got serious.

With elites like Squidward entering the battlefield, the fighting is no longer as easy as before; the aliens have developed a land warfare system!

Squidward is like a series of nodes, controlling all the seafood around it, much like the collaboration between humans and drones.

The dangerous battles are fought by these worthless lobsters, with the blue crabs providing fire support, while Squidward uses his powerful optical camouflage to ambush enemies from the shadows.

For example, some octopus snipers armed with "precision rifles" use their unique optical camouflage capabilities to lie in wait in inconspicuous corners and specifically target Australian officers.

Their objective is clear: to eliminate human officers. Once exposed, they will be immediately targeted by laser snipers.

For example, in this battle, under the watchful eye of satellites, a small squad of Australian soldiers was ambushed by Octopus.

After the troop carrier was shot down, the officer immediately ordered the surrounding soldiers to take cover. Amidst the shouts, a laser beam accurately struck his upper body, and the lieutenant fell to the ground with a painful scream.

As soon as the medics reached his side, they saw that his bulletproof vest had been pierced by a high-energy laser, his skin had been burned with a black hole, and his entire lung had been "cooked"—there was no hope.

As the soldiers took cover behind their bunkers, something blurry was wriggling on the rooftops of the buildings on either side of them. The optical sensors couldn't detect it, and the soldiers, focused on the enemy in front of them, also failed to notice these things camouflaged with optical camouflage.

Pfft!
Pfft!
Dust billowed from the ground, and several soldiers behind cover turned their heads sharply, raising their hands to fire. However, the octopus reacted faster than the Australian soldiers, its nimble tentacles raising a pulse laser to sweep the Australian soldiers.

Just as the soldiers around them were drawn to the octopus, several crystal knives appeared behind them. The octopus held the crystal knives on its tentacles, and the blades sliced ​​through the fragile human flesh like hot knives cutting butter. The lasers on its other tentacles continued to suppress the fire.

As soon as the soldiers took cover, some giant lice that had been lurking around them suddenly rolled out and, like "smart bombs," began to kill them.

After the explosion, several soldiers were knocked to the ground, and then, under their desperate gazes, Squidward mercilessly sliced ​​their bodies open with a crystal blade.

A platoon of soldiers was slaughtered by Squidward at close range in less than a minute, while Squidward only lost 3.

This is urban warfare. Octopus, with its natural optical camouflage, has a huge advantage, and giant lice can launch surprise attacks from inconspicuous corners.

The mere addition of multiple octopuses to the battle completely changed the landscape, with Australia's army being unilaterally suppressed by the alien civilization's army.

Within the city, the surviving civilians are still relatively safe near the Australian Army's occupied territory, but the humans on the alien civilization's side have been almost entirely wiped out by the alien civilization.

"Commander, based on our analysis of the current situation, it seems unlikely that the Australian Army will be able to retake Sydney."

Without the air force, a direct clash between army units relies entirely on the soldiers' fighting will, something Australia doesn't have much of, especially after the initial elite forces were almost entirely wiped out.

The current problem is that Australia cannot retake Sydney, and the extraterrestrial civilization's actions are not simply a matter of occupying Sydney; satellite spectral images show an increasing thermal infrared response from the massive spire. In other words, it is accumulating energy!

"What are they going to do?"

"It's still unclear, but in terms of energy level, it's already comparable to a nuclear fusion reactor." The armored figure analyzed the satellite's infrared spectrum image: "I'm afraid the alien civilization is planning to breach another normalized Einstein-Rosen bridge."

Open another wormhole? Not only would Tokyo University not allow it, but the other two universities wouldn't allow it either.

"The Russian side?"

The commander looked at the diplomats' seat and asked, "The East and West are too busy facing the threat of extraterrestrial civilizations in the Pacific to deal with Australia, but Russia is different. They are happy to help Australia solve its problems."

"Ballistic missile fuel is already being added."

"How damaged?"

"Commander, if Australia's east coast disappears, New Zealand will also be greatly impacted!"

Because of the characteristics of extraterrestrial civilizations, such as large areas of crystal spires, a single hydrogen bomb, combined with a Type 3 "chain reaction," would cause upheaval throughout the South Pacific.

"What will be the impact on us?"

"Because most of the shock was absorbed by Australia, and the remaining shock was almost negligible thanks to the buffer in the Philippines, it could not affect us."

On the huge sand table in the command center, a simulated attack by Iskandar was shown, which would flatten Sydney and have some impact on South America as well.

"Reporting to the commander, a high-energy reaction has been detected!"

The technician monitoring the Sydney alien base suddenly shouted.

"What high-energy reaction?"

However, the next second, everyone in the command center realized what a high-energy reaction was.

The satellite's optical sensors, which were observing the ground, suddenly detected high infrared radiation. In the next instant, the entire field of vision was engulfed in bright light, and the satellite lost contact.
As if it were just the beginning, the enormous spire continuously emitted beams of ultra-high-energy lasers. Even after being weakened by aerosols and air within the atmosphere, these laser beams could still attack human-made satellites in low Earth orbit.

Satellites deployed into space by different countries are losing contact one after another.
"Report to Commander! Satellite contact lost, Beidou satellite..."

As satellites continued to lose contact, with one satellite disconnecting from the data link almost every 10 seconds, the experts in the command center looked grim.

The other side is a civilization, and sooner or later they will be able to discover humanity's combat system. However, no one expected that time would come so quickly. The alien civilization has already noticed the human satellite in orbit and is attacking it.

Satellites are an important part of the human military system. Without satellites, precision-guided weapons cannot be used and can only rely on inertial guidance, which has a large margin of error. Nuclear weapons have sufficient kill radius, but other precision-guided weapons will be greatly affected!
"Launch another satellite immediately!"
