Based on current intelligence, it is very likely that Shangqiu will encounter these biological weapons left behind on the continent by these "demons," and studying the corpses will help to understand where the monsters' weaknesses are, making the killing more efficient.
The remaining chemical defense personnel, dressed in NBC protective suits, were processing the collected monster corpses in the incinerator.
What really caught Shangqiu's attention was the ruins from which the monster crawled out.
In the enormous pit, a sergeant major wearing a full-body exoskeleton armor made of carbon nanotubes and titanium crystal fibers is preparing to venture deeper into the ruins.
However, the drones were the first to go down.
One after another, quadcopter drones ventured deep underground through the opening torn open by the monster, and then used their onboard equipment to explore the interior of the ruins.
After confirming safety, the first to disembark were not the sergeants, but a full ten Type 59-X aircraft.
On the erected winch, the quadruped mech was deployed to the bottom of the ruins.
Upon reaching the bottom of the ruins, 59-X entered intelligent operation mode, and the LED array on its body turned on, illuminating the surrounding area. Then, the light tower began scanning the surrounding environment, and after confirming that it was safe, it entered alert mode.
After the first quadruped mech was deployed, the second...the third...
In a confined underground environment, some vehicles are still needed for support.
After sending down eight quadruped mechs and initially securing the landing site, the sergeants entered the ruins one after another.
The sergeant attached his harness to the winch and then used an electrothermal chemical gun to rappel down.
The sergeant descended into the ruins more than 200 meters underground. Every so often, LED searchlights were driven into the rock walls, which were then reinforced. The engineers were working hard to prefabricate the modules, which would later be used to build an elevator at the opening to allow access to the underground ruins.
Huge cables extend down the rock face from the opening, with LED lights on either side powered by wireless transmission devices on the cables. A glance down reveals four-legged drones on alert below.
It took the sergeants two full hours to reach the ruins below, a distance of only 200 meters.
Once the sergeants landed, they immediately began constructing a defensive position, which also served as the forward base for this underground site, preparing for future archaeological and scientific research.
The winches continuously delivered various supplies underground, prefabricated bunkers were set up, 35mm sniper grenades were erected, and then came various automatic weapons and man-portable missile launchers... Without this heavy firepower, even military leaders would feel insecure.
Automatic machine guns were mounted on high ground, forming a crossfire between the two guns. Smart mines were then laid in front of the position, and motion sensors were also installed. Several lasers continuously swept across the open ground in front of the position... This way, even things that can be invisible would be detected if they got close.
After all, while Hollywood movies are exaggerated, they are also very valuable for reference, such as the Predator, an alien that can turn invisible.
Various searchlights dispelled the darkness, illuminating the underground ruins brightly.
The sergeants prepared to explore outwards, creating sufficient depth to deal with any unforeseen circumstances.
"Stay vigilant and don't let your guard down. We don't know if there are any other biological weapons down there."
"clear."
Using 59-X as a pivot, the military commander formed the proposed "infantry-tank combined" formation and explored into the ruins, placing an alarm at intervals.
Soon, one after another, twisted and strange buildings appeared in the sergeants' field of vision. These strange buildings seemed to be a woven fabric of all the frenzied structures, and from the current perspective, this underground ruin seemed to be a city... so large that it was terrifying and oppressive.
Strange tombs, megalithic structures with bizarre symbolism, temple-like buildings, and ruins everywhere... it's clear that this underground site has been ravaged by war!
Chapter 273 Inside the Ruins
rustling...
The underground ruins welcomed new guests: the rabbit's scientific expedition team.
After confirming that the air in the underground ruins was normal and that there were no harmful bacteria or viruses, the archaeological team entered the ruins to further study the underground remains. This is very important for China to understand the history of the continent, especially the war between the two civilizations.
The level of civilization of both sides at the start of the war, their most powerful weapons, and their combat methods are all of great reference value.
If the goddess's children still exist, then who dares to say that the demon's offspring have not been left behind?
This necessitated scientific expeditions, and seven or eight expedition teams dispersed to conduct detailed scientific investigations of the ruins.
Two Type 59X helicopters and a squad of sergeants quickly occupied the surrounding high ground and vigilantly surveyed the surroundings. The Type 59X helicopters fired laser designators to continuously scan the surroundings to prevent anything invisible to the naked eye from getting close.
After confirming that the surrounding area was safe, the captain said in the communication channel: "Safe. Be careful not to leave our sight and do not act alone."
After he finished speaking, the six research team members behind him began collecting some valuable items from the surrounding area.
"Shen Jing...slow down, wait for me..."
One of the expedition members, panting heavily, said to the female member walking ahead.
Upon hearing the shout, the research team member walking ahead turned around and said in an extremely gentle voice, "Liu Xin, watch your breathing rate. Your breathing valve can't withstand breathing like that. Don't suffer from oxygen deprivation."
"Hehe..." Liu Xin chuckled shyly. He especially loved listening to Shen Jing speak because her voice was so gentle, as if even strong interaction materials would soften in front of her voice.
Liu Xin adjusted the transparent mask on her head and began to regulate her breathing. She glanced at the security team standing guard not far away. With them there, the expedition team felt very safe.
Although there were no viruses or harmful substances in the air, all the research team members were still equipped with a transparent mask for protection, which could effectively prevent any possible parasites from entering the human body from the head.
After all, this civilization has advanced biotechnology, and who knows if there are any small parasites. This is largely thanks to Hollywood in the US; although some of the plots are far-fetched, they still provide some reference value.
"Hmm...this place looks somewhat similar to the architecture of the Bel Kingdom..."
Liu Xin observed a collapsed building complex, a scene of crumbling, medieval ruins. Under the LED lights, the floors and other internal structures had been almost completely eroded away, leaving only the stone towers and walls, detached from the main structure, relatively intact...
Black marks can be seen in some hidden corners, but they are so old that they are barely visible.
Shen Jing walked up to the black marks and scraped some off with a scraper.
When the group arrived at a large square, everyone almost stopped breathing; they were terrified by the sight before them.
Starting from a secret spot in front of the stone steps of the square, countless intertwined white bones lay scattered about... No one knows exactly how many there were, but judging from the thick layer of ashes on the ground, many people had died! A very large number of people!
The bones stretched out like a foamy ocean; some skeletons had already disintegrated, while others still retained partial or joint integrity...
The more complete pieces appear to be either resisting some kind of threat or clinging to each other... just by looking at their posture, you can tell how desperate the scene must have been.
"Shen Jing... Shen Jing... This is..." Liu Xin's eyes widened, and he said in horror. At least tens of thousands of people had been massacred in the huge square!
"Hmm...a massacre site, a massacre site from thousands of years ago..."
A hint of pity flashed in Shen Jing's eyes. How many people must have died?
"Halt! Be on alert!"
The squad leader gestured for the expedition team to stop. With so many corpses appearing, they had to be extremely cautious.
"Until it is safe to proceed, no one is allowed to move forward. After sampling in place for 20 minutes, we will return," the academician in charge of the team said in a deep voice.
"clear."
The research team members spread out and searched the surrounding area for anything of value.
At the same time, the footage from the square was transmitted back to Shangqiu via data link.
The experts who were paying attention to the scientific expedition team couldn't help but start discussing it among themselves.
"I think the corpses in the square represent the defeated's final counterattack..."
Judging from the operating mechanism of that monster, humans, or rather organic matter, were their fuel (food). So, with so many humans slaughtered and their remains left here, it means that they didn't have enough time to process these remains and could only let them weather away.
"Hmm... I think so too. It should be the end of the war between the two civilizations. Both sides are at their last gasp, but the civilization on the continent has won."
"The exploration team also discovered another exit from the ruins, where they found footprints..."
"So, the appearance of this monster wasn't a coincidence?"
"Hmm... Considering the recent disappearances in the Kroborsky Autonomous Oblast, someone has activated biological weapons."
The bigwigs nodded; whoever did it, it's been noted down.
"To fully explore this ruin, at least three months will be needed..."
It would be considered fast to explore such a large underground ruin in three months. Moreover, the ruin can be reused. Such a large natural underground cave is very attractive to rabbits.
"Three months? The New Year is over by now."
"Yes, it's been almost four years without us even realizing it," a bigwig said with a sigh.
"By the way, the USTC Mingrui Institute said that studying the microstructure of the monster's bio-charged armor gave them some inspiration, and they will soon be able to produce a prototype."
Upon hearing that the charged armor was about to be completed, the eyes of the army leaders present lit up. They were very clear about the monster's defensive capabilities. It could withstand more than ten rounds of 300mm long-range artillery, as well as other heavy weapons. Its defensive capabilities were simply too strong!
"Look, our Type 99A's guns have been upgraded, shouldn't the armor be upgraded too? Just tell me, how many do you need? Plenty to go..."
The army leaders thought about it and realized that the Type 99A alone was not enough. They would replace the Type 99A with energy-rechargeable armor, but they couldn't neglect the Type 59. With some modifications, it could fight for another fifty years!
"...By the way, could we upgrade and strengthen the 59 again?"
The air force and navy leaders exchanged glances, thought for a moment, and tacitly agreed to let the army test the new energy armor first. Once the army had finished testing it, the air force and navy wouldn't be far behind.
Chapter 274 Sir, I need an explanation
The Spring Festival is here, and as the traditional festival of the rabbit, the streets and alleys of Shangqiu are filled with a festive atmosphere.
At the entrance of the villa, Zhou Mingrui was putting up Spring Festival couplets with Tio and Lingdang.
Lingdang stood on the stool, tiptoeing as she tried to paste the Spring Festival couplets higher. Zhou Mingrui, seeing the wobbly stool, couldn't help but step forward and put his hand on Lingdang's waist.
Be careful.
"Hehehe..."
As the bell jingled, the long purple hair occasionally brushed against Zhou Mingrui's face, making him feel itchy.
Bell's amber eyes narrowed; the plan was working.
After Lingdang finished pasting the Spring Festival couplets on the left, Tio stood on the stool on the right and looked at Zhou Mingrui.
"Okay, got it."
Zhou Mingrui walked behind Theo and put his hand on her waist.
After the couplets were pasted up, Theo hugged Zhou Mingrui's neck and got off the stool. Seeing this, Lingdang narrowed her eyes.
(= ̄ω ̄=)?(= ̄ω ̄=)
"Alright, the couplets are up. Let's go inside."
After the three entered the house, Zhou Mingrui glanced at the group photo on the living room wall and couldn't help but stare blankly.
When we first adopted them, their eyes were vacant and they seemed somewhat resistant, a stark contrast to how they are now.
"Old Zhou~ what are you looking at?"
Bell and Theo walked up to the photo wall, stared at the photos for a moment, then narrowed their eyes, recalling the past four years.
"It's nothing, it just feels like time flies by so fast, four years have passed in the blink of an eye. Oh right... I haven't had time to measure your heights, so I'll do it today."
