Dragon Cub's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 34 Fighting with others is a lot of fun

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

During the detention, out of a certain communication mentality, Varen and Xiaoxiao talked about the situation on the earth and what kind of organization XCOM is, what are their missions and tasks.

This is a special organization that is led by a mysterious force called "Parliament" and supported by the Five Permanent Members to target extraterrestrial threats. As time goes by, more and more countries join it. There are sixteen countries so far.

It is worth mentioning that there has never been an alien attack before, but XCOM has indeed built anthill bases on five continents, and deployed independent air force interception bases, whether it is technology and military technology, or huge The source of funds in units of [-] million is very mysterious.

It was not until a few days ago that an unknown meteor shower appeared in Hamburg, Germany, and a reconnaissance plane belonging to the German military photographed traces of alien life forms, that the XCOM project was urgently allowed to start.

Whether it is personnel, commanders, or equipment, they were all brought in for use recently. As a result, although the entire base has five floors, most of the areas are caves that have just been dug, and there is not even an interrogation room.

And because the extraterrestrial threat came too hastily, the equipment here was collected from several bases, so only one of the five bases could be activated, otherwise it would be

There will be a break in funds and personnel. It can be said that the commander is ordered to manage such a large base and combat force that is invaded by aliens on the earth.

"Not only that, but the cooperation among the countries mentioned originally has not been in place. The countries in the council are arguing. No one wants to pay more. Funds, materials, and personnel are all very tight."

Warren sighed, it is really impossible that countries cannot reach a consensus at this time, except that Europe was frightened because it happened in Hamburg, Germany, so they opened up their academy of sciences and various experimental institutions to XCOM. Research.

[Continent rewards, initially you can only choose one of Europe and North America, Europe is a bonus for laboratories and workshops, North America is a bonus for advanced aviation, Asia is a bonus for officer training and industrial manufacturing, Africa and South America are bonuses for anatomy and interrogation As well as money bonuses, if you play LongWar, you can even choose specific national rewards, such as Japan’s steam thermal power bonus]

However, their worries are not unreasonable. After all, before this, everyone thought that Project X was a money scam. If they hadn't really produced some scientific and technological achievements, they would have produced some evidence of the existence of threats. If it is, it will not even have the current scale.

But now, the aliens have really come. In theory, they should cooperate with one another. In fact, every country wants to protect itself first, and use the best equipment, personnel and funds to arm itself. If they If you can't see that XCOM has the ability to protect them, then you will definitely not contribute money, or even withdraw from the parliament.

"So, we have to juggle all kinds of events happening around the world at the same time, and we often only have the resources to deal with some of them."

"It sounds miserable." Xiaoxiao said sympathetically, there are not enough people, not enough equipment, poor training, equipment and laboratories have just been installed, and the scientists who come to report are only + one-tenth of the schedule. The top talents are being held back by various countries.

Under such dire conditions, they have to undertake the toughest battle to stop the aliens in time in the event of kidnapping and attack that may occur at any time.

He only has an assault rifle with a terrible recoil in his hand, and he only has protective gear that will take a long time to repair if he is seriously injured and falls to the ground after being shot at most.

The tactical equipment is only fragmentation grenades, and there is nothing for battlefield support. There is only one air vehicle but it has to travel around the world. The entire base has less than 4 engineers, 3 scientists, and a batch of research assistants and technical workers. .

The entire combat force is a dozen or so recruits who have not had time to receive any necessary training to fight aliens. "If this is a game, it must be a bad game. I really thank you."

"Ah, yes." Even alien friends know that this is unreliable. It's like stepping on an egg and playing a game of throwing ten balls. Why don't those idiots in the United Nations know? Not only don't they know, they also find things for XCOM every day , put forward some unrealistic demands and strange tasks.

For example, if you ask for some advanced weapons for free, you need to provide alien samples, materials, and corpses, and the reward is only their goodwill, and you will not immediately withdraw from the point of surrender

——Gives you a taste of fighting the front and the rear at the same time, especially the internal enemies in the expansion pack. In addition to fighting the logistics to the death, you have to really catch the internal ghosts.It vividly outlines a real picture of the life of a front-line commander. In comparison, the second-generation resistance army is almost TG-level combat effectiveness. Quit the plan, you only need to concentrate on dealing with the enemy and attacking each other.

"The blockade is not good, the bombing wreckage can't be done, and the loot is first-rate." However, after a few days of hard work, Varun and a group of XCOM employees who came with ideals and lofty aspirations were hit by the cruel reality. Incomplete.

At first, I thought that aliens were finally coming. We didn’t have the skills of slaying dragons for nothing. Will and numbers, terrain and tactical advantages can still be dealt with, but the enemy behind is much more difficult to deal with than the front line.

"Ms. Warren, the commander has an order to send the two VIPs to the European headquarters"

"Another unrealistic request from the EU!?" Varen said angrily, intercepting research materials and transferring researchers away. Fortunately, several successive attacks after the German attack forced them to fulfill part of their promises. , Opened its own research institute for cooperative reverse engineering.

And the worst Germany is the first time to put advanced manufacturing equipment and experimental equipment in place, which can be regarded as a solution to some of the urgent needs of XCOM. [Laboratory, workshop fees and maintenance are halved]

"There is no way, doctor, just bear with it." After all, they still need to rely on these people for money. A crow interceptor costs more than 25 billion, not to mention the Sky Eye reconnaissance satellite worth 120 billion. This kind of reconnaissance Satellites can remotely scan and detect U-wave signals on the earth to determine the trajectory of alien flying saucers.

How this technology was developed without aliens, no one knows, but at least one thing is certain, the huge earth monitoring and defense network originally planned to consist of more than 100 sky eyes, because of human rights, appropriation, privacy , national security and a bunch of other things, so far only the one over the headquarters has been launched, and there is still a reserve spare part.

Are you desperate?What is even more desperate is yet to come. It was originally planned to deploy four crow interceptors and avalanche defense missiles in each country, but now there are only two at the headquarters. Even if satellites capture the traces of flying saucers in other countries, there is no interceptor force.

Currently, only one of the six Skyscanners is usable. Fortunately, Dr. Shen is a master of technology, so he can barely guarantee such a high-intensity attendance. This thing has not crashed yet.

The second one was assembled and directly detained by the Americans on the grounds that it would affect their national security—well, considering the incident of alien attacks, handing over this fast-response aircraft to XCOM instead of allocating it to the US military did affect their security .

"It's this time, and they're still beating these little smarts?"

"There is no way. The parliament is negotiating with various countries. It should...will get some assistance later, such as new manpower, new equipment and so on."

"Okay, okay, these shitty things again!" As a pure researcher, Dr. Warren couldn't understand these things the most. They were racing against time to make the entire base operate, train combatants, and counter foreign forces. The abduction plan of the aliens, the deployment of interception forces, the recovery of technology, and reverse engineering, and these people are frantically dragging their feet.

"Hey, this is the first time I've been imprisoned, so I'm going to be transferred?" Curiously, Xiao Xiao followed the escort into the transport plane used for transfer. This is not Skyscanner, but an ordinary heavy-duty transport helicopter, code-named "" Valkyrie".

The replenishment of base personnel and material supplies is the transfer work completed by this kind of helicopter.

The helicopter quickly took off from the abandoned ground base outside and headed towards France.

"Kacha, Kacha may have found her too harmless, or it may be that she and Zhaoxia are really going to do something, ordinary handcuffs can't prevent it, so they didn't put on handcuffs, and then the two loli cuddled together Kacha Chewing biscuits.

At the same time, near Normandy, "I found it, XCOM's transport helicopter." The scout hidden in the jungle put down the binoculars, "The corrupt earth regime cannot get these two captives, the earth belongs to the elders!"

"Long live the elder!" In the forest, a surface-to-air missile slowly rose, and the matching fire control radar vehicle locked the helicopter that seemed to be unaware of something wrong.

"Dididi!" When the lock-on alarm sounded, it was too late, and the ambusher deployed three surface-to-air missiles, aiming at the Valkyrie helicopter from three directions at the same time, ensuring a fatal blow, " boom!"

"Help! Help! We've been hit by a missile, repeat, help..." "Boom!" Everyone in the headquarters at the Anthill base looked at each other in dismay.

"We have enemies inside." The commander said in a deep voice, "It seems that the elder's layout is more profound than we imagined."

"Because this is a war," Dr. Shen whispered, "it's not just between us and them."

The reason why the elders invaded the earth is very strange. They are creatures with powerful psychic power, but because of the powerful psychic power, their bodies began to shrink and degenerate inevitably. In order to save the crisis of extinction due to the disappearance of their bodies, they captured a large number of Experiments with creatures from other planets.

In the end, it was discovered that human beings are the best targets who can withstand their spiritual energy and become their containers. They have both physical strength and spiritual energy strength, and can be used as excellent fighter materials. It just so happens that the elders themselves are in an interstellar war.

[UFO Investigation Bureau and the end of UFO 1 are mentioned]

"Immediately send Skywatchers into the crash site to search and rescue, is this also an opportunity for us?"

"The opportunity to see the true colors of the two guests, and the opportunity to resolve the EU's request." After all, the Anthill base has handed over the target, and it was attacked by a third party on the way, so it has nothing to do with XCOM.

"Crack!" The masked warriors holding conventional assault rifles fell limply in Xiaoxiao's hands. Their weapons were not bad for killing ordinary human soldiers, but the threat was too low for Xiaoxiao. Their throats are done.

"If the backpack hadn't been confiscated, you would all have died." Xiaoxiao picked up the rifle on the ground and looked at the crash site. Only she and Zhaoxia had one unfortunate broken gun.

The guy with the legs survived.

It's really normal for the two of them to survive. The dragon wings spread out and they jumped off the plane and ran away, and the guy who just broke his leg was really pure luck.

"Zhaoxia, go on!" Xiaoxiao threw the rifle to Zhaoxia, reached out to pick up the XCOM heavy assault rifle on the ground, "Only 20 rounds of ammunition? Too little, right?

"【Five bursts, 4 grids of ammunition by default】

"Large-caliber ammunition, this gun is not suitable for children." The wounded soldier with Rongya grinned hard to tie the wound on his leg. In addition to breaking his leg, a piece of aircraft debris also pierced his thigh. If the bleeding cannot be stopped in time Sent to the doctor, it is estimated that he will have to amputate and retire. [In the first generation, there is a chance that soldiers will be seriously injured and retire. If you encounter your main force, you can almost start fighting again]

"Da da da da da da!" A string of ammunition rushed towards the face, hitting the wreckage and trees, splinters and iron filings splashed, "Shield!" The dragon's aura extended, and the dragon god's ether built a solid barrier to block it. These fragments are not much less powerful than bullets.

"what is this?"

"Zhaoxia!" The other party obviously won't reload collectively, but keeps alternately suppressing the shots, making Xiaoxiao unable to let go of the shield at all, but she is not alone in her combat power.

"Understood, my lord." Zhaoxia quickly jumped out of the protective range of the shield from the side, fired at the enemy, and began to run around. Just when the attacker was distracted to pay attention to her, the shield on Xiaoxiao's side was also instantly closed, and she His marksmanship is obviously much better than Zhaoxia's.

The heavy rifle is no lighter than straw in her hands. With the support of holographic sights and longan thermal vision, enemies who try to shoot Zhaoxia are constantly blown off their heads.

, but 20 rounds of ammunition are fleeting, and she has to continue to prop up the shield to maintain the safe zone.

Fortunately, at this moment, the voice of the Skywatcher sounded in the sky, and four reinforcements quickly descended, forming a three-sided attack on the attackers. After discovering the arrival of the reinforcements, the attackers also quickly began to retreat. There is no needless consumption of reinforcements.

"I said, your secrecy work needs to be done again." Xiao Xiao sighed, "It's full of holes." Such an organization is actually the only line of defense on Earth, it's hopeless.

Chapter 35 Dragon cubs who generally pass

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

This time, the treatment of returning to the anthill is not an interrogation room, but an office with a spacious layout and relaxed colors. Military officer Bradford has been waiting for a long time with a report. As the only one on earth who is still working A serious international organization, although XCOM has various problems, at least the efficiency is quite high.

The shield and performance of Xiaoxiaoyong quickly entered the evaluation organization composed of professionals, and finally concluded that it is similar to the alien's psionic ability. In the absence of samples, it is difficult to make too much difference. Progress.

However, her combat effectiveness and reliability have been guaranteed in disguise, at least not from the enemy's side. "The commander means that we will provide the necessary shelter and protection, and you will pay for your labor and knowledge in return. Of course, you can also choose reject."

"Then he was pulled out and shot?" Xiao Xiao asked, after all, at such a time, this is what usually happens when someone refuses.

"No, we're not going to do that kind of thing, we're just going to hand you over to the EU again, and it's none of our business to say what they do."

"Hey!" Xiaoxiao made a strange sound, what is the difference between this and being killed directly?However, if you think about it carefully, it seems that the EU's combat effectiveness is not very good, and it seems to be okay.

"Don't even think about escaping from prison. They also ordered the same weapons and equipment as ours, so if you really have the ability to kill, you have already broken through the containment, right?" Bradford said. Said.

"It makes sense, but I don't like to work. I used to work at home for two hours a day and take three days off every week."

"...that's all easy to say." Bradford was silent for a few seconds. Fortunately, the elder is not this kind of alien, otherwise the XCOM plan will go bankrupt on the spot tomorrow. Of course, the good news may be that if the elder is this kind of alien , then the governments of various countries will be forced by the chaebol to start cooperation with XCOM immediately, and I don’t know whether to cry or laugh

"We only ask to be on call all day, and there are entertainment rooms and enough resting space in the base." If this kind of alien operator joins, it is indeed unlikely to be sent to do chores, but to be used as the main combatant.

"That's okay, can I shop online?"

"Yes, but the network has been reviewed by our technicians. Considering your identities, the use of network equipment must be under the supervision of our agents."

"It's okay" Anyway, Xiaoxiao didn't plan to buy any social dead things, just to see if there were any games or other things.In terms of food and daily supplies, the two sides did not discuss anything. Although Xiaoxiao and Zhaoxia have amazing appetites, for an organization like XCOM that spends more than [-] billion a month, it is not short of money at all.

At present, XCOM’s funding sources include 75 billion monthly grants from Germany and the European Union, which came after the attack in Hamburg, Germany and the launch of orbiting satellites at the headquarters, and 25 billion monthly grants from other countries including China , As for other assistance, there is none.

All countries have their own requirements, especially after seeing the successful handling of the Hamburg incident by XCOM, China's request is to deploy Skyeye satellites in the sky and transfer the technical data of the Raven fighter jets, so they are willing to gradually provide suitable engineers and engineering teams come over.

At the same time, China's huge manufacturing system will provide XCOM with sufficient parts and various related production, which will greatly reduce the product price of XCOM's experimental engineering department, and can transfer some excellent non-commissioned officers to come here.

[China’s Continent Bonus: Manufacturing Factory and Sergeant Upgrade Costs are halved]

The U.S. request is the same except that Sky Eye is the same. He requests that Asian countries, including Japan, be prohibited from providing Raven interceptor technology, and their condition is that fighter engines and maintenance parts will be supplied at cost prices in the future.

[US Bonus: Aviation upgrade costs and maintenance are halved].

Except that the Skyeye satellite network is a must, there are various other conditions. The council and commanders have a headache every day because of this shit. When repairing the network, they all want to use the technology without spending money. Now is the time to use it. Everyone wants to grab other people's share, and the worst ones are these guys in Europe.

Because the XCOM Anthill base is here, they had to launch a spare Skyeye satellite, and then they didn’t have to worry about it, so they started to make other demands, and even blocked the provision of surveillance network services to other countries, the reason is What if they spy through sky eyes?

"When it comes to spending money and efforts, one is poorer and whiter than the other, and when it comes to crowding out other people's places, one is more powerful than the other." Dr. Shen commented in this way.

"So, what is the commander's decision?"

"The Crow's technology is shared by one person, and then the Asian network system will be established first."

"Huh? The Americans will object, right?" The military officer frowned. The Americans would never allow it. The crow's technology itself came from his jet laboratory. Only then did I get the background.

"I don't care about that much now. If we can't establish a global interception system, then we won't have to think about the United States soon." Aliens will not change their approach because of who you are. You will know that you have allocated funds and personnel for us." What the commander said made sense, and the entire XCOM operation was like this.

Before Germany was attacked, everyone thought he was alarmist, the parliament was just a secret organization like the Brotherhood of Masons, and dealing with aliens was just an excuse made up by Yankees to cheat military funds.

Then after thousands of people died in Germany, you see, the German guy immediately provided 50 billion in funding and a scientific research team came over.

"Don't worry about them, we..."

"Woo? Huh?" A piercing alarm sounded in the base, "The sky eye network has detected traces of Yubo!"

"Location!?"
