An Unscientific Mechanic

"A certain unscientific mechanic (

"How can this be done..." Ian smashed his mouth. Looking at the lively surface of the shield world like El during the Brood War. The fungus blanket is boiling, the infected are running around, the combatants are roaring, and the corpse brain beast is spreading its teeth and claws.

When the first Star Alliance battleship fell on the surface of the shield world, the corpse brain beast woke up from hundreds of thousands of years of dreams.

Although most of them are dead, there are always lucky ones who follow the powered cabin and controllably fall on the surface of this shield world.

The demons of this world escaped from the containment facility about 100,000 years ago and swallowed the biomes left by the forerunners on the surface of the shield world, the demons began to starve...

One hundred thousand years...

Forcing the demons here to evolve...or degenerate into a plant community-biological tissue similar to a fungal community, spread on the surface of the shield world, and use the chloroplasts in the fungal community to absorb the little bit of sunlight and absorb the surface of the earth. Moisture absorbs nutrients from the soil.

Then, down to the infected person and up to the corpse-brain beast, everything is vegetarian...

This eating is one hundred thousand years... one hundred thousand years!

When the Star Alliance fleet arrived in the shield world two months ago, even the tips of the infected person's tentacles were glowing green.

It was engraved in the flesh and blood, written in the genes, and the gene for eating meat, after being forced to seal it for 100,000 years, I saw the food reaction again.

The happy hunting of the corpse-brain beast on the surface of the shield world only lasted until the wave cannon E1103 fired.

After that, a large number of ships of the Star Alliance were damaged, and countless fragments were attracted by the gravity of the shield world and fell towards the shield world. In addition, a large number of Covenant ships whose main reactors failed or whose thrusters were damaged forced landing on the surface of the shield world.

For Hong Mo, this should have been a joyous and crazy gluttonous feast.

But it evolved into an all-out war between the Star Alliance and the Flood.

By the way... the wreckage of the starship that was attracted in low-Earth orbit bombarded the surface of the shield world like random orbital strikes. Considering that the Star Alliance now only relies on several relatively complete cruisers that have crash-landed on the surface, several small landing sites are supported. The wreckage of the starship that has fallen into the atmosphere of the shield world is basically heading for the flood. It hurts the corpse brain beast egg.

"Keep the line of fire! Keep firing! Suppress them! Get out of the dead!" A golden armored Saint Heli waved an energy sword in one hand, and shot at the rushing flood with a plasma submachine gun in the other.

"I saw two anti-aircraft dead souls in the crashed cabin over there. I will cover you and rush to drive back. The rapid-fire plasma cannon on it is a very good weapon against ground forces." The ghost face beast can't take care of St. Helly. People's contradictions are gone, and they are not interested in being parasitized by that strange creature.

The three St. Helios with photon submachine guns and rifles nodded and signaled that they were ready.

The ghost face beast activated the gravity hammer and hit the ground with one hammer. The red shock wave blew away most of the flood demons nearby, but it also caused several Guru people to be infected and muddled their faces.

"Let's go ahead!" The ghost face beast yelled, and a nearby Saint Heli man in white armor heard it. He arranged part of his subordinates and led another part of his subordinates to follow the ghost face beast to the compartment of the ship where the anti-aircraft dead souls were parked .

"The Guru and the Gnoll build a firepower net together. You guys drove the Stalker support vehicle to find the firepower loopholes and make up." Several Guru, Gnolls, and Saint Heli officers nodded, and grumbled with their own. Subordinates assign tasks.

"Gnoll, you deploy some snipers to the commanding heights, and focus on cleaning up those guys whose heads will shine or blew themselves. They are too threatening to our position." The Jackal officer nodded and called a few snipers over. They went to the commanding heights and defended themselves.

"Hey, how long have you said we haven't fought such a united battle?" The golden armored Saint Heli patted another companion on the shoulder. "It's been a long time since they exploded in such a spirit of unity."

"It's so long that I can hardly remember what happened at that time." The White Armored Saint Heli spread his hands. "Guru people, SF Waves, run against the wind. Jackals, there are businesses everywhere, and hunters, no one knows what they are thinking... The ancestors are on top, we have no civil strife until now, thanks to luck."

"I don’t know if it’s lucky, but what I know is that the Saint Sims can be pulled off the altar. The midpoint of the pilgrimage is the giant space station of the forerunner. I will bear it. But this giant space station The large number of unidentified creatures on the surface is very puzzling.

Can anyone tell me what these things are? "

"God knows what these are. We can't contact the Prophet of Sadness now, nor can we find the way to the inner space of this world. The kamikaze martyrs have not given further instructions."

"It doesn’t matter, anyway, compared to talking humans, the creatures that can infect our compatriots and howl only look more like enemies. We must gather more ground troops. Let’s stabilize this place first, otherwise the line of defense will collapse. Gotta die."

"Yes, Commander."

"Commander, the spacecraft of the Star Alliance are leaving the line of fire with us. They have released a large number of carrier-based aircraft and landing ships to the surface. Many ships in the fleet are also lowering their altitude and carrying out ground support shelling."

"Cooperate with the ships of the Star Alliance and get out of the crossfire. Dispatch landing troops and carry the "Crazy Ivan" module. Taking into account the characteristics of the flood, artificial intelligence is forbidden to directly neurally connect the combat robot, and the control method is converted to "F2A." Ann pondered for a moment. The purpose of coming this time was not to destroy the Star Alliance. Twenty arrested three senior prophets of the Star Alliance, prevented the war, and then controlled and eliminated the Flood. If you have energy, help solve the 7-year madness problem of smart AI.

In addition, we must also guard against the Prometheus Legion, the AI ​​rebellion, the awakening of the missionaries, the ancient corpse-brain beasts that do not know where they are, the pioneers who are suspected to be hiding in the Large Magellanic Cloud, and so on.

"By the way, there are several fire-breathers for each unit. The small individuals of the Flood Demon seem to be very afraid of fire." Ian's expression turned bitter thinking about it. "Linda, how is the production of strategic bombers?"

"It's offline, and now it's carried by a large aircraft carrier Uraga-class on the other side of the planet to start combat testing. But why suddenly let the production of such a large strategic bomber? It has never appeared in the previous combat carrier series. Something..." Linda's avatar appeared on the communication screen.

"Because the combat goal and the combat objective are different, our previous battles were reversed and asymmetrical battles... We can't even guarantee the air superiority in the combat airspace. How can we invest such a huge amount of ammunition but poor survivability? The body entered the battlefield." Ian was looking at the battle of the shield world on the holographic podium.

"But... to be honest, if I ignore the Uraga-class aircraft carrier flying in the sky now, it looks like it was during the Cold War in the 20th century..." Linda glanced at the catapult on the ejection deck outside the window. Large bomber.

"what?"

"Anaheim Electronics once did a classic fighter re-enactment project, you know?" Linda took off the glasses and wiped the corners of her clothes.

"I know, it's the project I started." Ian remembered the days when he designed the VF-35 in Macross. To be honest, that kind of airframe is really beautiful, deformed, heavy firepower, high maneuverability, high speed, folding knife type variable forward swept wings...

Now Ian will take it out for an upgrade, just like the Iron Man who has hundreds of improved models...

"The 20-ton strategic bomber you requested this time was picked up from this project, oh... only the B-70 bomber is not an Anaheim project. That is the hypersonic speed that is still being installed in the UC world. bomber."

Curious, Ian opened Linda's strategic bomber project.

Picture-22R (reset) 3, Picture-160R, Picture-95R, B-1R, B-52R, B-70H (from UC Universe).

Escort fighter, VF-35F, F-12 hypersonic interceptor, F-108 hypersonic interceptor, FA-37 Eagle Claw fighter bomber (from top secret flight), MiG-31 heavy interceptor, MiG-37 fighter, MiG-39 (prototype MiG 1.44)

Except for the FA-37, which was inspired by the top-secret flight of the movie, the B-70 Valkyrie bomber still installed by the UC World Earth Federation, and the newly developed heavy variable fighter VF-35 by Anaheim, all are derived from the Earth’s Cold War period. Fighter re-enactment...

This moved and violated Ian's eyes...

When the "Classic Reissue" project was launched, Ian wanted to see with his own eyes a series of "monsters" called doomsday fighters developed by the world during the Cold War re-fly into the sky.

Of course, the weird thing is...

When the Tu-22 and B-1 bombers were in the same formation, there were also F-12 interceptors and MiG 31 interceptors born out of the SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance aircraft to escort...

By the way, part of the research and development purpose of these two Mach 3 high-speed interceptors was to intercept the opponent's supersonic bombers...

Ian shook his head, suppressing the absurdity.

"What about the effect?"

"It's so good that we have to re-evaluate these classic fighters in history." Linda smiled bitterly and shook her head. "At the same time, tests were carried out on the large bomber of Kirras, the VB-6E variable bomber, the variable MS demon angel carrying a large magazine, and the old assault support container. The bombing efficiency is far inferior to these hundreds of years. The old antique before..."

"The volume is there, and the original design intentions are different." Ian said you don't want to worry about this. Those things can support fighter-bombers or aircraft that can carry bombs, especially large flying-wing bombers like Kerlas. Ian felt that the efficiency of the bomber might not be as efficient as the Mi-24 gunship flying aerial bombs.

Then Ian saw...

MI-24PR

MI-28NR

MI-35MBR

Ka-52DR

AH-56R

AH-60AVR

AH-64DR

...

"Linda? Are you still testing the gunship?"

"Oh, that was a test request from Rita's troops. They lacked heavy fire support to accompany the advancement. At first, they considered MS, but in the end they chose to develop armed helicopters. If you look down, you can still see LAAT. The gunboat’s weapon upgrade plan. It’s a rare large-scale ground battlefield, and it’s a waste not to conduct weapons testing."

"You guys continue."

Linda nodded and hung up the communication.

Ian watched the take-off and landing of the plane over there and watched a few more sorties, before returning his gaze to the holographic platform here.

"Miri?"

"whats the matter."

"Has the Intelligence Department found the entrance to the shield world?"

"Not yet. The interference around the battlefield is too severe, and the wide-area scanning is not very useful. We are searching along the coastline based on the game's cutscene CG."

"...According to the game CG..."

"But we still have nothing to gain. Now, the UNSC support ship has also reached low altitude and is searching. Their troops have also established a frontline base, and they have fought against the Flood, and the casualties are not light."

The holographic platform on the left hand side of Miri is showing the battle between the Marines of the UNSC Fire Spirit and the Flood that took place next to a certain piece of urban wreckage.

"Do they know the characteristics of Flood Demon?"

"Of course, the basic features can be seen by just a few eyes." Misato swiped twice on the tablet in his hand. "Since you got in touch, let's talk about it now. We have discovered the distribution of these underground tunnel bugs."

The information in Mili's hands was synchronized to the holographic platform in front of Ian.

That is the spatial structure within a few tens of meters below the surface of the shield world, as well as the biological tissues intertwined horizontally and entangled like roots.

This part of the organization shows certain characteristics of silicon-based life. The basic structure of the body has changed from carbon-based organic matter to a mixture of carbon-based organic matter, silicon-based compounds, and metals~www.novelmtl.com~this Some of the discoveries made Ritsuko and Naoko ecstatic. After their unprecedented enthusiasm broke out, a pattern was discovered. "There was a helpless expression on Miri's face. "All the organization should come from this position." "

Miri clicked on the tablet, and a cube space about fifteen kilometers square was marked. It is two hundred kilometers deep below the surface.

"We infer that the corpse brain beast is here. But because of the structure of the shield world, we dare not easily use powerful orbital bombing to blow up the surface."

"Indeed, considering that none of the things made by the Forerunners seem to be particularly strong, let's take the conventional route. And there are too many things worth studying in this shield world, which is very valuable for preservation. I remember that there are generally in the Forerunner facilities Did you find a guiding AI? Wait..." Ian suddenly remembered something. "How about the exploration of the City of Fraternity?"

"Ah? Oh... that, I'll pick you up with Dr. Lakshata."

"...The exploration of the city of fraternity has been completed. We found that the core of the city of fraternity is the wreckage of an ancient forerunner battleship, which was severely damaged by the corpse brain beast. We are trying to restore the technology inside the city of fraternity." It seems that Indian women appear on the screen.

"Understood, I remember that there is a forerunner AI on it, which seems to be called the monk of hatred..."

"Oh... Uh, we found it. The AI ​​is called the Monk of Prejudice, and is now assisting us in the Intrepid... Oh Intrepid is the Forerunner battleship... the exploration of this ship."

"Hello, I am the monk of prejudice, the artificial intelligence made by the great race pioneers. I am glad to meet you."
