The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

Chapter 90
Xie Yuan finally brought the living people from the colonial town to the gate, which boosted everyone's confidence.

And he brought back a grenade launcher, the M-100 grenade launcher, from the comrades who died in battle.

This rapid-fire grenade launcher is also a popular weapon for squads. It is equipped with an intelligent targeting system. One precise shot can kill several enemies at the same time. It is effective against armor, shields and power barriers.

Although the rest of the people were brought back to gather, they still couldn't hide the sadness that more than half of them were killed or injured in less than an hour.Under the excessive grief, some people even questioned why Xie Yuan didn't bring the sacrificed colleagues here, but this was reprimanded by Ryder and most people.

However, Captain Ryder finally used this recording to let everyone finally know why this colony has such a "midnight ring".

After knowing the real reason for attracting the sand demon swarms to attack, Ryder immediately ordered to cut off the power of all the surrounding equipment, and after killing a group of sand demon insects that were attracted by the special frequency, the Akuz colony finally Ushered in a brief calm.

But no matter how peaceful the small town is, it can't hide the maliciousness of countless sand devils rampant underground. More importantly, such a huge number of sand devils means that the sand devil spores have taken root on the planet Akuz. Long.

But Akuz absolutely didn't have creatures of this species like the Sand Demon Worm at the beginning!When it was brought in, when it spread, the specific quantity and habitat range are all blank.

Everyone here now knows only two things: I. Akuz planet is hopeless, and II. The rest of them don't want to stay here at all!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ryder could only call the headquarters again, urging his superiors to approve the evacuation.

Fortunately, there was no delay in the ship this time, and the shuttle was promised to be put down within 10 minutes.

But there is a problem. Given the possibility of noise from the shuttle, once the landing is arranged, there must be covering fire to ensure the safety of the surrounding area.

According to this restriction, the shuttle can land in an open area in the town, or in an open area in front of the outer town gate, but someone needs to be located at the fire cover point to cover.

Who will do the firepower?
"Count me in." Xie Yuan took the initiative to apply, and he thought it would be okay to do more with his own abilities.

"I'll stay and go last." Captain Ryder, as the supreme commander, took the initiative to cut off the rear, which is indeed very exemplary.

It's just that Xie Yuan and Ryder's task is more heavy field cover, but there are two cannons at high places, these two are important cover firepower.

Although it is safer than having a limited defense in the wild...but it is still a dangerous position, and the acid saliva of the Sand Demon Worm can still reach this height.

It was okay in the initial stage, after a dozen or so wounded were settled, the remaining combatants in the initial stage could still be used as fire cover.

This is the biggest problem, and it is not in vain that Xie Yuan and Ryder chose the most difficult position first, so that the rest of the people can have a little courage to come out as the commanding heights.

But what is disappointing is that even the people who were originally in charge of firepower did not want to take up this position because they could not bear the concentration of acid liquid and spared their lives.

Really... I don’t know what to say. They can’t force this job. After all, they think it’s easier to go to military court for more than ten years and to be hit by acid and die in pain.

This is the Starfederation, the final evolution of the reorganized army of the former NATO, and this is already regarded as the upper-middle level of the Space Marine Corps.

Speechlessly, in the end, as Xie Yuan expected, Jiacier, the ambitious man in the two armies of Menendez and Delfarco, took the task.

Xie Yuan could guess that they wanted to use credit to pay for their crimes, and Ryder could naturally do the same, but he didn't object to this request, as long as he could bring people back as much as possible, it would be a great achievement.

Nature can offset the merits and demerits.

The crowd without any objection began to arrange the retreat.

……

Ten minutes later, the first shuttle landed in the designated area.

UT-47 Kodiak landing machine, the whole body sealed shell makes it rarely exposes fragile large and small components.And the ability to land easily in absolute vacuum, high pressure and temperatures from near absolute zero to over 900 degrees Celsius makes him useful as a guest spacecraft in a stellar galaxy.

It looks like a brick on the outside, but inside the cramped cargo bay can hold 12 soldiers, with room for two more in the driver's cab.

The front of the Kodiak carries a mass-accelerating cannon that can be used against the vehicle, the only weapon system and means of counterattack.

Given this shortcoming, plus the pilot having to reduce vehicle mass for speed and maneuverability, while also needing some mass to counteract recoil, incoming artillery and bad weather, the Kodiak has a huge advantage after landing and before takeoff risks of.

Not only did it come to a complete stop, the vibrations triggered the arrival of the Sand Demon Worm.

"Zhizhizhi" countless sand demon insects drilled through the soil and exposed their heads, ready to bite the shuttle...

"Chi... Chi..." A high-temperature airflow as high as 1600 degrees Celsius burned towards the mouthparts of these insects, and after a while, a smell of grilled protein came to the nostrils.

After a while, the bugs were scorched by the burning, and most of them retreated into the soil while twisting their bodies, only a small number of short bugs remained on the ground.

These are the larvae that are actually burned.

On the high ground, Menendez and Delfarco each occupy a 50-shot mass-acceleration cannon turret, aiming at the dead angle that Xie Yuan and Ryder can't take care of below.

With the help of other people, the first wave of bugs was blocked.

"It's safe for now, hurry up and send the wounded in first!" Ryder issued a retreat order for the wounded to evacuate the moment the bug retreated.

The marines who had already prepared immediately carried the stretchers and quickly carried the seriously wounded who needed further treatment onto the plane one by one.

Followed by the slightly injured patients who temporarily lost combat effectiveness, these people were also arranged by Ryder to board the shuttle. Due to the size limitation, up to 8 people were arranged to board the shuttle.

"Huhu—duh" the small propellers of the shuttle started to exert force, and rushed into the sky with a whirr, flying towards the sky.

"Yeah!" A row of people cheered very presumptuously, as if they were on that ship.

Xie Yuan stared coldly at this group of colleagues who did not belong to the army in his mind at all, and replaced his flamethrower with a fuel cell.

He decided to take a vacation for himself and go to other dungeon worlds to stay, let go of his depressed mood for the past three years, and retire when he comes back.

To do this, he needs to be the last one to board the shuttle, or better yet "miss" not to board, but in any case, he needs to send these guys who are about to lose their will first.

It's a pity that after two more shuttlers left in a row, the remaining people, even the two outlaws Menendez and Delfarco, couldn't bear the pressure of the acid that was thrown from time to time.

So it was Xie Yuan who volunteered to assume the responsibility.

Ryder didn't understand: "Why?" It's not that he didn't appreciate Xie Yuan's sacrifice. In fact, Xie Yuan's behavior has already brought a good foundation for his future career.

But what he didn't understand was why Xie Yuan fought so hard. He didn't understand why a soldier could be so fearless.

"You think I want to do this." Xie Yuan blocked Ryder's continuation with one sentence. He urged the rest of the people to board the plane and leave. He will definitely wait until the next shuttle arrives alive.

Although he knew that without ground cover, he would have to wait until dawn as the only soldier.

But it’s okay, I finally have a free time, I can come out to arrange tasks, and I’d better retire when I come back, as a freelancer, I can do more tasks anyway.

Back in his previous room, looking at the dark environment, Xie Yuan hid himself under the bed frame like that unlucky Briggs, looked at the bed board, and said softly:

"Send!"

Xie Yuan's consciousness disappeared, but what he didn't expect was that a black-haired beauty in black and white tights suddenly opened the door of the room the next moment.

She looked at Xie Yuan lying under the bed frame, and reported to the other end of the radio: "I found him, he did lose consciousness automatically, what should we do next?"
