Chapter 222 Morning at Federal Pier

Before the beginning, I first declare that this volume will describe the experience of federal soldiers from a third-person perspective, such as this chapter.:3w. In addition, the long-awaited main plot is finally about to begin - if I have not turned it into various unconventional daily life.

Get back to the point.

Sekil is a large trade port city in the Federation. Since it has never been warred during World War II, the city is larger than that of Sanctuary. This city is a favorite of merchants, because most of the transactions between the Federation and the Kingdom are completed here. Every day, a large number of cargo ships enter and exit the port, bustling and bustling; coupled with the countless high-rise buildings in the city, the city looks more and more prosperous.

At least on the surface.

The excellent harbor is not only used as a dock for merchant ships, but also a military port dedicated to the docking of warships. As the only land city in the world that allows fighter jets to reach the land of the kingdom (without air refueling), large military airports and military bases for ground troops are also built here.

Whether it is for the empire or the kingdom, the Federation has never been relieved. However, during this period, the three major powers were in a state of cooperation that shocked the chins of the whole world, the federal troops stationed in Sekiel were no longer as nervous as before. After all, Sekiel is not like Sanctuary. It is very close to the kingdom and is on the verge of the sea, and it faces the threat of the Kingdom's sea fleet every day.

However, they will still do what they should do seriously, even if this matter seems unreasonable.

Lieutenant Hansen is the commander of a small ground force, and his personality is a good old man who doesn't like talking. Although he is a super newcomer who just joined the army half a year ago, he was valued by his immediate boss, Colonel Keir. The reason is that this young lieutenant once participated in the battle that was almost like a meat grinder-like plant attack not long ago, and had very valuable practical experience.

That's something that I can't understand no matter how many exercises I have conducted.

Now, Hansen is taking his small unit of a tank, four infantry fighting vehicles and forty infantry to the dock where the supply ship is docked. Originally, Kyer's troops were going to move to other cities, but not long after they left the base and entered the city, something strange happened. So the command center decisively asked the troops closest to the site of the accident to investigate.

Then Kyer sent Hansen over.

Things were simple, but not simple. A cargo ship entering the port stopped for about half an hour without anyone coming down. The busy port staff finally noticed the abnormality and tried to contact the other party in various ways. No reply was received. No one saw a figure on the ship.

Considering that the cargo ship may be held hostage by terrorists, the staff called the police. This was a normal development, but the key issue was that the special police armed to the teeth did not detect the existence of humans in the ship using instruments.

Could it be that this cart is the legendary ghost ship? With such a question, the special police rushed into the ship with weapons. Then... there was no more. The detection instruments deployed outside said that something moving in the cabin attacked the special police officers who rushed in, but it was not clear what the other party was.

What is that? A human made of crystals, or a crystal in human form? What's even more terrifying is that from the gap, the entire cabin is covered with this strange lavender, like a alien nest covered with disgusting mucus.

"Fire the gun and kill that thing." Hansen ordered the crew without hesitation.

Most of the people in the army were old birds who had fought with plants with young lieutenants, so they decisively executed his orders. However, just a second before the tank fired, the "crystal man" suddenly stretched out several "crab legs" from behind, and emitted some dazzling white beam from the tip of the legs.

A police light armored vehicle instantly turned into burning scrap iron. As for the monster itself, it immediately turned into countless pieces in the violent explosion of tank shells.

Is it a legendary laser weapon, or a magic that has the same effect? ​​Hansen is not sure, but at least that monster is not indestructible. As long as you know this, you will be at ease.

However, it was too early for the lieutenant to feel at ease, because there were many crystal monsters showing their bodies from the gap and staring at the people on the dock. These things did not look unified, some looked like insects, some looked like four-legged animals, and some were just strange creatures that could make the abstract art masters burst into tears on the spot; but they all had one common feature, that is, they had a pair of crimson pupilless eyes on the head.

At 7:13 am Federal time and 15:49 pm Empire time, the first contact between humans and this amethyst monster officially began.

Hansen fired less than half of the bullets with a machine gun and hid back into the tank. There were very few monsters that could fire white beams. Most of them emitted sharp diamond crystals, each of which was as thick as a pen holder, which posed a great threat to infantry. It was indeed very cool to kill all sides with a machine gun like the protagonist, but the lieutenant knew very well that reality was completely different from filming movies. Such an act of attracting hatred was no different from actively seeking to draw. It would be better to be a low-key person.

Just listening to the sound of these crystals pounding on the surface armor makes people's scalp numb.

"Col. The things inside the ship are indeed a group of unfriendly monsters." Hansen took the time to report to Keir seriously. "Compared with plants, they have more amazing combat capabilities. Most individuals have long-range attack methods, and some can even fire things like high-power lasers, but they can still destroy the other party with ordinary fire."

"Very good Hansen, can you keep the dock?"

"Although the police were suffering from serious casualties, there should be no problem." Hansen evaluated the situation of the battle and affirmed, "After all, Captain Thomas's troops are about to arrive..."

"Lieutenant, come and see!" The soldier who replaced Hanson to observe the outside world suddenly shouted loudly with horror on his face.

Hansen leaned forward in confusion, observed carefully, and then returned to the radio station: "Sorry, Colonel, the dock can't be kept. And I think it's better to sound the alarm in the city now, and then send all the troops in the base to the city to arrange defenses."

"What's wrong?"
