Chapter 253 Level 4 Firearms and Individual Combat Mechs (4K)

The main reason why Liye decided to launch an attack an hour later was that he was waiting for the intelligence to be updated.

The system CD is ready. This refresh time is only 8 hours, and there are 5 pieces of intelligence.

He naturally wanted to wait for the intelligence to be updated before deciding on the next action of his troops based on the intelligence.

An hour later, the intelligence was updated.

1. There are no monster civilizations within the floating island area. (Intelligence Value: Average)

2. There is a medium-sized mine in the northeastern part of Mirror Forest Island where you are located. (Intelligence Value: Excellent)

3. The monster-dominated world-class organization "Union Church" has deployed its forces in the Floating Island area. Be careful. (Intelligence Value: Excellent)

4. The three major world-class human organizations plan to redeploy lower-level human forces in the wasteland. (Intelligence Value: Rare)

5. The Demon Civilization controls 37% of the Floating Island area. (Intelligence Value: Rare)

Li Ye immediately began to watch intently.

What intrigued him was how the humans managed to deploy their forces in the wasteland.

Although there are no level 4 monster civilizations in the floating island area, he still faces considerable pressure.

The Unification Church has deployed armed forces in the Floating Island District. Considering the 37% control the Demon Civilization has, it is clear that the Floating Island District also has its own armed forces.

"In that case, should I also deploy the Starship and the Peacekeeper?" he thought to himself.

After thinking it over, he felt there was no need to rush.

This floating island area is very large, and our own troops are on the edge, so the enemy won't be able to come to us for a while.

"Let's take down that mine first!"

Following the intelligence, Li Ye led his troops to the mine.

Taking over this mine was not as easy as it seemed, because it had been taken over by a group of mutated creatures.

Looking at these mutated creatures, Li Ye hesitated for a moment.

"Is this a mutated worm?"

In the nearby mine, hundreds of worm-like creatures roamed around.

Their bodies are as thick as giant pythons, covered by segments of jet-black chitinous carapace, each segment capable of rotating independently. The surface of the carapace is covered with fine bony spikes and grooves, gleaming with a damp, oily sheen in the dim light.

As for the worms' heads, they were nothing short of perfect killing machines.

Four serrated jaw flaps split open in all directions, revealing layers upon layers of sharp, ring-shaped teeth inside. Each tooth is as sharp as a scalpel, and in the center is a retractable, pale probe, the tip of which constantly drips turbid digestive fluid.

When its mouthparts are open, they are large enough to completely engulf the upper body of an adult.

What Li Ye didn't know was that this worm was called a "bone-eating planarian".

The name was given to it by the Titans because it possesses extremely strong gnawing and digestive abilities.

Although he didn't know the details of the Bone-Eating Planarian, it was, after all, a Level 4 mutated creature, so Li Ye carefully arranged a battle plan.

Leopard 2A7V main battle tanks, rapid-fire locomotives, leapfrog mechs, torrent heavy tanks, and Prometheus formations are deployed, ready to unleash a barrage of firepower at any moment.

The Zhenlang destroyer is being deployed remotely.

Gunships, bombers, and fighters are responsible for providing air fire support.

"Damn it, I'm using a modern military unit to fight bugs in a mine," Li Ye thought to himself.

Although it sounds a bit outrageous, he has to do it.

Because the rules of the world have completely changed.

With a command from Li Ye, all troops began to unleash a barrage of firepower on the insects.

However, since it is a level 3 vehicle weapon, its power is still somewhat lacking.

However, after a barrage of attacks, the planarians were eventually wiped out.

After confirming that the mine was safe, Li Ye immediately ordered the start of mining operations.

This time, the personnel sent were residents of the Iron Whale, some of whom were even equipped with Level 3 Hercules single-person engineering robotic arms.

This pair of external giant robotic arms appears extremely powerful, making iron ore mining extremely convenient and efficient.

But looking at its imposing appearance, Li Ye felt that this thing was probably meant for fighting.

About half an hour later, the medium-sized mine was completely mined out.

Li Ye briefly reviewed his gains.

1354 units of level 4 iron ore, 823 units of level 4 saltpeter, 763 units of level 4 coal, 311 units of copper ore, 204 units of silver ore, and 52 units of gold ore.

"It's ok."

The hundred or so Bone-Eating Planarians also dropped a considerable amount of level 4 resources.

What Li Ye cares about most is the design blueprints.

To his delight, the Bone-Eating Planarians dropped two Level 4 design blueprints.

Filled with excitement, Li Ye looked at the design drawings.

The first design blueprint was for a level 4 sniper rifle.

Item Name: "Silent Reaper" Anti-Material Sniper Rifle

[Level: Level 4]

【附带效果：1.精确度+40% 2.伤害+35% 3.后座力-50%】

[Crafting Cost: 60 units of iron ore (Level 4)]

Judging from the design drawings, the Silent Reaper sniper rifle has a futuristic and technological appearance, with sharp lines and circuitry that create a strong visual impact.

"It's actually an anti-materiel sniper rifle?" Li Ye asked in surprise.

The so-called anti-material sniper rifle is a large-caliber sniper weapon specifically designed to target armored vehicles and fortifications, and its destructive power is extremely astonishing.

A level 4 anti-material sniper rifle should be able to destroy a tank with a single shot.

The second set of design drawings is even more unique.

That was a mech suit for individual combat.

【Item Name: "Corrosion Throat" Individual Chemical Warfare Mech】

[Level: Level 4]

【附带效果：1.防御力+40% 2.辐射范围+35% 3.酸液腐蚀威力+25%】

[Crafting Costs: 70 units of iron ore (level 4), 20 units of nuclear waste (level 4)]

Judging from the design drawings, the appearance of the "Corrosion Throat" chemical warfare mech is quite distinctive.

Its surface is covered with dark green fluorescent patterns resembling corroded blood vessels, it has an opaque solution tank on its back, and sprayers mounted on its shoulders.

The helmet resembled the enormous compound eyes of an insect, with eyepieces emitting a faint green glow, and the mouth area served as a filter-like air intake. Various parts of the mech also featured exposed bio-chemical hoses, inside which flowed a high-pressure, eerie green acid.

Overall, its design falls somewhere between an industrial mecha and a mutated creature.

The Corrosion Throat mech has only one weapon: a spray gun for applying high-pressure acid.

Its range is 30-50 meters. Furthermore, the high-pressure acid it sprays carries significant radiation.

This is clearly a single-soldier combat mech specifically designed to target biological targets.

Li Ye has no trouble finding Category 4 nuclear waste. His own Tomorrow has just built a Category 4 nuclear power plant, and Category 4 nuclear waste is just a byproduct of it. He can have as much as he wants.

Overall, he was quite satisfied with the two design drawings.

After putting away the design drawings, Li Ye couldn't help but ponder.

Both the Silent Reaper sniper rifle and the Acid Throat mech are Tier 4 items whose power surpasses that of weapons on Earth.

Not only that, even the city's architecture and vehicles have taken on a futuristic, technological style, putting them far ahead of Earth.

Therefore, this cataclysm not only turned the entire planet Weilan into a wasteland, but also provided unprecedented opportunities for development.

Li Ye immediately arranged for the Super Galaxy Transporter to carry the Level 4 resources and then returned to the Tomorrow in it.

He immediately input the design blueprints and resources, and created 6 Silent Reaper sniper rifles and 4 Acid Throat mechs.

The reason why I didn't spend all of the newly acquired level 4 iron ore was mainly because I was certain that I would acquire new level 4 firearms and vehicle blueprints in the future, which would require me to continue using level 4 iron ore to craft them.

During this period, Li Ye noticed a key issue.

That means we need to purchase a Tier 4 city building upgrade blueprint to upgrade the steel mill on the Tomorrow to Tier 4.

In this way, the steel forging plant will be able to produce grade 4 steel.

"I wonder how expensive the Tier 4 city building upgrade blueprints are?" he pondered.

Currently, the Tomorrow Alliance still owes the Apocalypse Church a debt of 20 crystal coins.

After completing the battle, Li Ye took the batch of level 4 items and returned to Mirror Forest Island by transport plane.

“Now, we can start thinking about how to attack Lava Island,” he said solemnly to the crowd.

Li Ye planned to test the power of the Silent Reaper sniper rifle first.

The special forces of Tomorrow have many skilled snipers who have demonstrated their prowess in previous battles against the Titans.

Li Ye distributed six Silent Reaper sniper rifles to them and had them test their power against the mutated creatures on Lava Island.

Lava Island and Mirror Forest Island are not far apart, only a kilometer or two apart.

A special forces member has selected his target.

A giant molten lizard.

At this moment, the mutated creature was wandering around the lava lake, occasionally raising its head and spewing flames.

The special forces members squinted, aimed, and fired.

The bullet tore through the air at an extremely high speed, its casing burning from intense friction, leaving a scorching trail of death in mid-air.

The bullet struck the molten giant lizard precisely in the head, piercing through its obsidian-like scales.

The molten giant lizard's head exploded, spraying golden-red lava mixed with shattered bone fragments in a radial pattern. A series of boiling pools of blood gushed from the mutated creature's throat, and its headless body staggered a few steps before collapsing to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Li Ye couldn't help but nod slowly.

"This power is indeed considerable."

He was already looking forward to seeing how the Silent Reaper sniper rifle would perform against vehicles.

To his utter surprise, this shot caused a huge commotion on the lava island.

The moment the gunshot rang out and the head of the molten giant lizard exploded, all the mutated creatures on the lava island were terrified and frantically fled towards the nearest lava lake and crater.

The giant molten lizards' thick limbs raced across the scorching rocks, their obsidian-like scales gleaming with dark red patterns from the intense movement. The largest of the giant lizards suddenly glanced back at Mirror Forest Island in the distance before leaping into the lava lake, then plunged without hesitation into the boiling magma, splashing up a large spray of golden-red water.

The molten core worms quickly burrowed underground, their enormous bodies creating waves of scorching heat on the ground.

Flameshell crabs surged toward the crater like a tide, their heavy shells clattering against each other with a crisp, knocking sound. Several lagging flameshell crabs were trampled by their panicked brethren, the high-pressure steam spewing from their exploding shells turning the nearby sulfur crystals a ghastly white.

The sulfur-winged bats circled and flew around in panic before diving into the crater and disappearing into the thick smoke.

In just a few dozen seconds, the once vibrant lava island became deathly silent, leaving only the still bubbling lava lake.

Upon seeing this, everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

"Are these mutated creatures really this timid?" Fang Yong exclaimed, speechless.

Li Ye was also somewhat surprised.

As he anticipated, the special forces would use the Silent Reaper sniper rifle to continuously fire and remotely eliminate the mutated creatures on the lava island.

After clearing away a large number of them, he then dispatched troops to collect the fallen debris.

But now that I think about it, that idea was far too idealistic.

Ordinary birds and beasts in the mountains and forests will flee quickly after hearing gunshots, let alone level 4 mutated creatures.

After thinking for a while, Li Ye slowly shook his head.

"Fang Yong, these mutated creatures are not cowardly."

"On the contrary, they are very intelligent."

"They were clearly aware that there were long-range weapons on Mirror Forest Island that posed a serious threat to their lives, so they chose to flee immediately."

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Yong realized that what Li Ye said did make sense.

Although he had figured this out, Li Ye still found it extremely troublesome.

He currently has no way to extract these mutated creatures from the lava lake and volcano.

It must be said that the ecology of this level 4 area is far more amazing than he imagined.

The ecology and scenery on the lava island are just the tip of the iceberg.

Li Ye was not discouraged, but continued to think about how the troops should act next.

To advance, the troops need to hunt level 4 mutated creatures in the floating island area on a large scale in order to obtain their dropped resources.

The main weapons they rely on are the Silent Reaper sniper rifle and the Acid Throat mech—Li Ye believes the latter should be able to demonstrate its power.

"Let's wait patiently, these mutated creatures will come out in a while," he said to Fang Yong.

Li Ye's judgment was not wrong.

After about ten minutes, probably feeling that the crisis had passed, the mutated creatures on the lava island emerged from the lava lake and crater and began to move around on the island again.

Li Ye immediately began to deploy troops to prepare for an attack on Lava Island.

According to his arrangement, the Leopard 2A7V main battle tank, the Rapid Fire Locomotive, the Leaping Frog Mech, and the Torrent Heavy Tank were successively loaded onto the destroyer.

Prometheus, on the other hand, traveled to the lava island by "swimming" in the atmospheric ocean.

Gunships, reconnaissance planes, bombers, and fighter jets quickly flew to their positions over the lava island, awaiting orders to begin bombing.

Li Ye couldn't help but glance at the two Zhenlang destroyers.

In the atmosphere and ocean of the floating islands, they give one the feeling of being a spaceship, which is quite novel.

"Speaking of which, Alliance Leader, why don't you deploy the Deep Sea Hunter submarine and the mechanical squid?" Fang Yong asked.
