Chapter 205 Successful kill, new information
Chapter 205 Successful kill, new information
The severely damaged behemoth only managed to move two steps before collapsing completely in place.
As a precaution, the Wasp attack helicopter group, having replenished its ammunition, unleashed another round of firepower on the behemoth.
Before the entire helicopter group had landed, the reconnaissance drones in mid-air spotted a light appearing on the belly of the giant beast.
Two seconds after the warning was issued, a small mushroom cloud rose from the ground with a dazzling light.
Then an extremely powerful blast of air blew all the armed helicopters away, and the extremely high temperature melted a considerable number of unmanned combat units.
Only the unmanned ground combat units that hid in the third and fourth trenches escaped unscathed.
Of the unmanned combat units in the air, only the command aircraft at an altitude of 10,000 meters survived.
The only good news is that this explosion did not trigger a large-scale electromagnetic pulse.
Upon receiving the information, Lorraine immediately ordered the air command aircraft to fly towards mines No. 3 and No. 4.
At the same time, the detection instruments outside mines No. 3 and No. 4 also detected an anomaly below.
The only ones that haven't changed are the No. 5 and No. 6 mines, which are farther away from the No. 2 mine and are still within the range of the electromagnetic shielding system.
Lorraine didn't have time to worry about much else, so he could only order the Attack 3 and Attack 4 Qianlong fighter jets on Airport 2 to enter the runway and take off.
Subsequently, the heavy cruiser next to it adjusted its hull position, pointing the two bow turrets and the two stern turrets toward mines No. 3 and No. 4, respectively.
At the same time, a stealth Hawk drone equipped with a multi-functional detection pod was launched from the amphibious assault ship.
Since Lorraine and Platinum were respectively monitoring the situation at mines 3, 4, 5, and 6, the explosion data transmitted from the command aircraft and the information collected by Stealth Eagle could only be analyzed and organized by Ouyang Nian.
Through the laser communication device of another communication relay drone, Bai Jin learned the specific situation of mines No. 5 and No. 6.
After confirming that there was no unusual activity at mines 5 and 6, Platinum directed the unmanned engineering units present to continue placing explosives near the war behemoth.
Upon receiving the message, the robotic dogs directed the unmanned combat units to leave the first layer of trenches, leaving only a small number of unmanned combat units in the second layer of trenches.
When the forward base filled the electric field jamming weapon with charged particles, two explosions rang out one after the other from the vicinity of the No. 3 and No. 4 mines, which were nearly 100 kilometers apart.
Following closely behind was a formation of 60 Wasp attack helicopters.
After unloading all their ammunition, the 60 armed helicopters turned around and hovered inside the mine to avoid any potential shockwaves.
Subsequently, the light cruiser HMS Sea Knight on the sea began firing at full speed, frantically launching high-explosive ammunition into the two large craters from its two bow turrets.
When these two war behemoths emerged from the crater and appeared on the surface, almost all the unmanned combat units on the outer perimeter of the No. 3 and No. 4 mines retreated to the third and fourth trenches.
This time, the heavy cruiser's main control program was adjusted to change the firing mode, switching to alternating firing from the left and right guns.
To allow time for the laser telemetry and control system to transfer the target point, the interval between each shot was set at two seconds.
After eight rounds of shelling, terminally guided shells, flying with crimson trajectories, almost completely obliterated the heads of the two war behemoths in mines No. 3 and No. 4.
After the two war behemoths were confirmed dead, Lorraine left 20 wheeled armored vehicles and 100 hunting dogs near them.
看着正在2号机场挂载钻地炸弹的攻击3号和攻击4号潜龙战斗机,洛林又扭过头看了看5号和6号矿山附近的情况。
After confirming that everything was correct, Lorraine finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he turned to look at Ouyang Nian, who was beaming with excitement, and asked her what valuable thing she had discovered.
"The nuclear-powered furnace inside this war behemoth is a fusion reaction, so its explosion did not generate a very strong electromagnetic pulse."
"Furthermore, a new tutorial has just appeared in the encyclopedia, which details how to completely remove a nuclear-powered furnace from the body of a behemoth."
"In this way, it can be definitively confirmed that they are an 'artificial' race."
When he said the last sentence, Ouyang Nian suddenly became serious, which meant that they were going to face a species with more advanced technology and greater strength.
"It's possible that this species also created and released the zombie virus."
Lorraine shook his head, turning his attention back to the battlefield.
Four fighter jets carrying bunker buster bombs took off and flew towards mines No. 5 and No. 6, which were 500 to 600 kilometers away.
During their flight, several engineering machines used to remove the nuclear-powered furnace were being produced by the flagship's industrial components.
The same process, the same explosion, except this time the explosive yield reached 14 tons, and the extremely violent shock caused the mechs not far away to sway slightly.
To avoid any abnormalities in the nuclear reactor that could trigger an explosion, the electric field decoy was not deployed into the crater.
However, when the behemoth emerged from the ground after enduring the rocket launcher, it was not immediately hit by the 203mm heavy artillery.
He immediately faced a 130mm armor-piercing high-explosive grenade fired by a mech remotely controlled by a robotic dog.
At a distance of 1 kilometer, which is almost face-to-face, the electromagnetic railgun's high initial velocity advantage was almost fully utilized, and its armor penetration depth exceeded expectations, successfully penetrating its relatively weak points.
The moment the laser pointers lit up, the mechs on the side furthest from the coast simultaneously fired smoke grenades to conceal their positions and ran towards the back of the mine.
After ten rounds of salvo, the two bewildered war behemoths could only lie paralyzed in place, waiting for the arrival of engineering machinery.
Afterwards, Lorraine took out his data panel and checked the kill rewards for these war behemoths.
[Defeat 5 small silicon-based war behemoths]
[Kill Rewards: 40 units of nuclear fusion fuel, 1 nuclear fusion reactor technical manual, 1 nuclear fusion weapon technical manual.]
The rewards for defeating these giant beasts are very simple, but the amount of information they contain is astonishing.
After sending the two documents to Ouyang Nian, Lorraine began to think about how to kill the two war beasts hiding beneath the coal mine.
The first method rejected was using high-yield explosives for killing, since the heat generated by the explosion could very likely ignite the entire mine.
Coal is not only an important energy source, but also a crucial raw material for the metallurgical and chemical industries. This coal mine, located by the sea and convenient for transportation, is something that cannot be replicated.
But after much deliberation, Lorraine couldn't find a way to minimize environmental damage besides close-range firing with a 203mm electromagnetic railgun.
