Steel torrents pioneering a different world

Chapter 17 Armor-Piercing Shells Don't Believe in the Tears of Carbon-Based Lifeforms! (Please Read On!)

With enough supplies brought in from the modern world, the soldiers only needed to insert aluminum alloy posts into the snow and then tie the wire mesh with wire to complete a simple fence.

But this is not the end.

To guard against strange and unusual invaders, humans also set up more emergency lighting systems and erected multiple heavy machine gun and cannon fire defense positions at high altitudes.

The area around the base, both in the air and on the ground, is completely protected.

Half an hour later...

Li Xiang, carrying his new discovery, searches for Li Jingze, Zhao Chong, and others.

"Flesh and blood specimens contaminated by magic lose their 'life force' when they approach a spacetime portal?"

Li Xiang nodded: "Yes, it's very strange. I've tested it many times, and as soon as I bring the specimen near the light gate, that thing loses its life force. This must be some kind of special field field of the spacetime light gate!"

"A special field? A magic-suppressing field?"

Li Xiang shook his head: "I don't know!"

Li Jing, standing next to him, rubbed his protective suit and said, "Perhaps this is why there's so little snow in the 150-meter radius area of ​​the time portal?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chong immediately laughed and said, "If the spacetime gate's domain field can suppress magic, it might be good news for our tactical arrangements!"

Upon reflection, everyone realized this was good news.

If the portal to spacetime is magic-free, then humanity could easily turn this place into a magic-isolated zone.

Some strange magical techniques are difficult for humans to defend against, but the core position can be set up here directly.

"By the way, is the mouse still alive?"

"They are all alive and well. When they first arrived, a few mice showed some degree of hyperactivity, but they quickly returned to normal. Because I suspect that there is a magic-suppressing field near the time portal, I have categorized and placed the mice 150 meters away from the time portal, and so far I have not found any problems."

"What about the grains and seeds from another world?"

"Although there are some issues with the plumpness of the alien grain seeds, preliminary analysis shows that the grains are of very good quality. They are rich in starch and protein, and no toxicity to the species has been found so far."

"I feel that this matter will definitely attract the attention of higher authorities!"

"Now, all discoveries in the other world will attract the attention of the higher-ups."

The strong electromagnetic interference from the wind and snow alone greatly interested the troops.

If humanity were to decipher the principles of snow and wind in this other world, then catalyze the snow and wind to create powerful electromagnetic interference, and then launch an attack on a snowy night, it would undoubtedly have significant tactical and strategic value.

Besides this, the ability to influence electromagnetic energy fluctuations in wind and snow also indicates that this world has a different microscopic particle worldview than the modern world.

If it could be cracked, it could be applied to the modern world...

Besides this, there's magic, supernatural beings, even the remains of Sai Sai, the military dog—there's so much to offer for human research!
"It's getting dark soon, hurry up and contact Modern to gather defensive supplies. Oh, and get some more flamethrowers!"

Li Xiang told everyone that fire should deal relatively high damage to otherworldly undead creatures.

"Okay, I'll contact headquarters later!"

"Li Xiang, you and your team need to get off work overtime tonight to quickly figure out the cause of Sai Sai's mutation and find out its weaknesses."

"understand!"

Until it is confirmed whether there are human beings in this world, and until larger scientific instruments analyze the air quality and the safety of the "magical elements," humans should exercise caution.

After dinner, each department continued its work.

Zhao Chong's side directly communicated with the modern world using flag signals to try and secure more defensive weapons.

In the modern world, at the Zhurihe Time-Space Gate intelligence gathering area: "Anomalies; more defensive weapons needed?"

Li Weiguo rubbed his chin, looking at the heavy machine guns, flamethrowers, incendiary bombs, landmines, barbed wire, and other equipment ordered from the other side with a puzzled expression, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Any discoveries over there? They only want individual and defensive weapons, not ranged weapons? Is the alien atmosphere and electromagnetic environment too complex?"

"I suspect there are some restrictions in this other world that are interfering with our high-tech equipment." Commander Man sucked on a lollipop. "The supplies they need are easy to prepare. General Li, why don't you go have some food and rest for a bit?"

"How can I possibly sleep!"

Su Mingjin scribbled in her notebook: "Xiao Li and the others said there is danger in the other world, so we need to be prepared to provide support here."

"Yes, a company-level firepower unit is ready. Oxygen and supplies are also ready, and we can provide support at any time."

The advance team carried sufficient supplies. A separate unit had already been working day and night, ready to provide support to the vanguard at any time.

Weapons from the modern world were transported to the alternate world, while engineers and soldiers adjusted their shifts and took turns on guard against the "enemy" that might arrive at night.

Researchers are working overtime to gain a preliminary understanding and analysis of the world.

A series of tests were conducted on live mice and insects brought from the modern world by modern humans. The mice exhibited some hyperactivity after inhaling the air of this world, but subsequently returned to normal. Research reports on other organisms have not yet yielded further findings due to a lack of sufficient experimental data.

For the reasons mentioned above, Li Xiang began to conduct some basic weakness tests on the besieged undead specimens.

Because otherworldly magical creatures would quickly lose their "life signs" upon approaching the portal, Li Xiang had to conduct tests outside the camp.

modern world.

Lin Li lay on the bed in a U-shape, his eyes closed, seemingly fast asleep.

At this moment, Lin Li is using the God's-eye view through the time portal to observe the actions of the otherworldly forces.

The Metaverse Pioneer has many functions, and clone projection is one of them.

When Lin Li opens the portal, he can also control the portal to a certain extent, and can also perform actions such as transmitting information and items across dimensions.

He was very interested in Li Xiang's scientific experiments and investigations at that moment.

Because this indicates the timeframe for the execution of his later revenge plan, as well as the intensity of his revenge!
He vividly remembers the unfortunate experiences he had when he first obtained the Metaverse Pioneer Machine!

Another world, a cutting-edge laboratory!
slap~
A ghostly blue flame erupted from the flames.

Li Xiang carefully placed the freshly cut undead muscle above the flames using tweezers. A video camera nearby was recording the scene.

Zizzi~
There was no chain reaction between the magical flesh and blood creations and the flames as he had imagined.

Like ordinary biological flesh and blood, the experimental meat chunks, when pulled into the pyre, turned into charcoal at a very uniform rate.

"This is troublesome! It's a pity there's no industrial silver here."

The portable gas stove used for picnics can release temperatures up to 1300 degrees Celsius. While such high temperatures are generally not harmful to organisms, Li Xiang and his assistant had read many classic novels, hadn't they?
In some novels, fire is the truth that purifies evil spirits, and the dead can become a source of combustion when they encounter fire. Unfortunately, the "undead creatures" of the other world do not possess this characteristic.

This is not a good discovery, as it means that modern humans are temporarily unable to use harmful attack methods such as flamethrowers to carry out comprehensive, large-scale extermination and cleanup services against potential undead attacks.

Adding to the damage Zhao Chong and Xiao Zhou inflicted on the undead military dogs, it can be confirmed that Dongda's current traditional small-caliber weapons are not very effective against these undead creatures, and it is estimated that more ammunition will be needed to disable the target.

Of course, the 5.8mm bullet is useless, but that doesn't mean that the 12.7mm and larger caliber weapons are ineffective. Those weapons should still have decent firepower.

Even though Sai Sai was transformed into an undead creature, her body was still made of carbon and did not evolve sturdy scales or energy shields.

Armor-piercing rounds won't give carbon-based life forms a chance to be arrogant!

If there is one, it must be because the caliber isn't big enough and it's not lethal enough!
