Start a core cabin

Duanmu Huai drove the Night Raven Black Star and quietly passed through the blockade of the Titanium Star Fleet. He hid in the shadow of the huge star projection and entered the interior of the planet from the other side of the pole.

This is a dead planet.

The entire planet was covered with thick ice and snow, with almost no signs of life. According to the scans of the reconnaissance fleet, the Tau people lived inside the planet, just like dwarves. Of course, the severe cold outside was obviously not suitable for them to stay here.

Duanmu Huai stepped off the fighter plane and looked around. The huge automatic loading and unloading yard was empty. This was normal because this was a material transfer station for the Titans and there was no one guarding it on weekdays.

"Lummiel, go figure out the route here, and then send a shipment to the underground material warehouse in the central command tower."

"OK."

Lumière nodded, then she walked to the terminal next to her and stretched out her hand. Soon, circuit lights emerged from Lumière's fingertips and penetrated into the terminal.

After a while, a cargo box not far from the three people opened with a "pop".

"I have re-routed the route and will be transporting in ten minutes."

"That's good, let's go in... well, let's take a look at what's in this box."

Duanmu Huai walked to the cargo box and curiously looked inside. But what he saw were only dozens of armored vehicles that were slightly larger than humans and looked like mobile exoskeletons. These were the combat uniforms of the Titans. The Titans, who were weak, timid and stupid, did not dare to fight against the strong humans. They could only use this little trick to strengthen themselves, but what Duanmu Huai looked down on was that even so, they would only hide behind and shoot from behind.

A bunch of trash.

However, Duanmu Huai was more concerned about the models of these combat uniforms. They were obviously specialized for combat and were ready.

"Lummiel?"

"What is it, Your Honor?"

"Where was the original destination of this cargo box?"

"The specific location is an underground base in the southeast of the city. It was transported under the guise of war damage replenishment."

"Battle damage replacement?"

Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

Not a warehouse, not a training ground, but a battle damage replacement? In other words, what kind of difficult trouble did these Tau people encounter on this planet? After all, judging from the number of combat uniforms in front of them, the Tau people have obviously suffered heavy losses. In other words, the enemies they encountered were not easy to deal with.

Well...but it has nothing to do with me.

Duanmu Huai withdrew the thought.

"Get ready to go."

"OK."

The three of them walked into the cargo box, and then the door of the cargo box closed again. They then moved forward silently along the conveyor belt and entered the depths of the dim tunnel in front of them.

Until this point, the Tau still hadn't noticed anything unusual.

After all, they have their own troubles to deal with.

Gunfire, smoke, and flashes.

The pungent smell of burnt blackness hit him in the face. Standing in front of the collapsed cave, Ka'an's face, which looked like an elongated fish head without a nose, looked very distorted. His combat uniform was covered with black smoke and marks of damage. The traces of battle and corpses on the ground around him proved that this was a fierce battle.

And it’s not over yet.

"We need reinforcements."

It let out a hoarse roar, showing its anger.

"Where are the reinforcements!? My brothers from the Fire Clan, where are they!"

“They’re gearing up.”

Another soldier came over, the railgun on his back swaying with his movements.

"But something went wrong in the transportation of supplies. It seems that some equipment was not included in the list..."

"A list?"

Ka'an reached out and grabbed his compatriot.

"I don't need any list now. What I need are warriors! Warriors as brave and strong as me! We need to stop them and prevent them from moving forward! Now tell me, can you do it?"

"Of course, the Fire Clan is fearless."

"very good."

After hearing this answer, Ka'an's excited emotions calmed down a lot. He looked at his compatriots again, nodded and looked away.

"Tell them to dress and line up as soon as possible. We still have a fight to do."

"yes."

The latter saluted Ka'an and left in a hurry. It passed through the busy battlefield and military camp and came to the other side of the camp. But Ka'an didn't know that his battle brother didn't go to the warehouse immediately. Instead, after leaving the camp, it flashed into a warehouse next to it.

“————”

The door made a low roar and then slowly opened. Hearing this sound, everyone in the warehouse turned their heads. They were all Tau people, but now these Tau people were wrapped in cloaks and gathered in a circle, as if they were plotting something shameful.

Seeing the arrival of this fire clan warrior, everyone's eyes froze at first, and then immediately relaxed.

"What's up?"

"Everything went according to plan, except that some equipment was not delivered in time."

"How many?"

"Thirty-five in all."

"It didn't affect the plan. How is the battle going?"

“Very pessimistic.”

The fire warrior shook his head.

"Commander Ka'an is furious. He needs more soldiers, more reinforcements, and more artillery fire. The enemy is more difficult than expected."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"But this is what we need."

The sound rang out and then disappeared.

"Go, noble warrior, stop the invaders for us, for the Greater Good."

"yes."

The warrior lowered his head, and his mouth opened into a shriveled crack, through which his sharp teeth could vaguely be seen glittering.

"Everything will go as planned. When the next battle begins, that will be the time to decide the fate of all this."

To Duanmu Huai, this was meaningless.

At this moment, he was standing in a huge underground cave, looking at the dark, tall, pillar-like system core in front of him.

There was nothing here, no one, and nothing. Because this was just a part of this giant system, there was no terminal, and there was nothing that could be used to control the central command system. So of course, there was no defense here. In fact, Duanmu Huai led Lumiel and Ogis along the way without encountering any obstacles.

After all, the alien hybrids would probably only come here to check on the situation during maintenance.

In the past, Duanmu Huai was also at a loss as to what to do with this kind of thing, but now with Liumiaire, things are different.

She can control all machines, even alien ones, and Lumielle doesn't need any keyboards, terminals, or interfaces.

Her method is simpler, it just requires physical contact.

Just like now.

Sitting on Duanmu Huai's right shoulder, Lumiel reached out and gently placed the fingers of his right hand wearing white silk gloves on the heavy, dark iron shell. Soon, beams of light like circuit diagrams emerged from Lumiel's fingertips, branching and extending like a flowing stream, and quickly spread upwards.

Apparently, those shoe-horn faces haven't realized yet that their demise is imminent.

After a while, Lumiaire opened her eyes and nodded to Duanmu Huai.

"Everything is ready, Your Honor."

"very good."

Duanmu Huai nodded.

"Get started!"

The gunfire roared.

The entire corridor became a battlefield of fire and light. The pulse carbine in Ka'an's hand kept pouring out the flames of destruction. Together with others, he blocked the enemy's attack again. But this time the situation was obviously not ideal. Although the enemy's equipment was still crude, illogical, and looked more like toys, their power was increasing. If it weren't for the weird and twisted armor on the opposite side, Ka'an would even have the illusion that he was fighting against his own people.

But this is no illusion.

"Suppress them with firepower, don't give them any chance!"

Ka'an shouted loudly, commanding other soldiers and drones to set up a defense line, trying to repel the enemy once again - just like they had done before.

However, everything suddenly stopped.

The heavy combat suit that was spewing a torrent of destruction suddenly stopped as if it had misfired, and the drone flying in the air fell to the ground. The combat suit that was once as easy to use as an arm for the Tau people now seemed to have turned into a piece of iron without any power, making it impossible for them to even move their feet.

"What's going on?"

Ka'an tried hard to move his fingers, but his combat suit seemed to be made of iron and did not move at all. All he saw was a message saying "No permission, operation failed."

This is my combat uniform, move it now!

Ka'an roared loudly, and at this moment, it heard the familiar sound of the railgun. Ka'an grinned at first, but then was stunned.

Because the sound did not come from beside me, but from behind me.

The roaring rail bombardment hit Ka'an, leaving a large hole in its chest. Ka'an fell backwards like a stone statue, still firing.

In the last moment before he fell, what Ka'an saw was the terrifying scene of those burly invaders shouting incomprehensible slogans as usual and rushing out of the smoke excitedly.
