Chapter 671: Blade Squad!
With thunderous footsteps, the square formations in the victory parade appeared before the million citizens.
Ahead of the first square formation were three flag bearers. They swung three flags.
Aside from Earth’s flag, which also represented Dragon City’s civilization, and the raging dragon flag that represented the Red Dragon Army, the third flag was a broken, bleeding saber.
The paint on these flags seed to have fluorescent effects.
Even though the saber was broken from the middle and there were eight chips on the blade, the spot where the blood was seed to be shining with a blinding light.
Under the broken saber flag were the soldiers who ford the first square formation. All of them appeared to be old, and in fact, so of them already had white hair on their heads.
The people in this square formation all had limb injuries. The ones with the lightest injuries all had one chanical arm or chanical leg. So of them had their eyes reduced to empty sockets by monsters’ acid. They had to implant micro caras that shone with a red light in their eye sockets, making them look like there was frozen fire embedded in their eyes.
Since they were injured in different parts of the body, it was hard for them to walk in uniform steps.
Nonetheless, the monstrous killing intent still froze together to form a substantial war soul, causing the million citizens to instantly recognize who they were.
“Blade Squad!”
“It’s really the legendary Blade Squad!”
“Only the Blade Squad has the right to walk at the front of the victory parade!”
The eyes of the million citizens were filled with fervor and respect for these murderous but disabled soldiers. It was the sa for Bai Jiacao.
The Blade Squad could be said to be the oldest organized ard force after Dragon City transmigrated to the Other World.
In fact, they were the last “seeds” that remained of the regular army on Earth.
Half a century ago, when Dragon City had just transmigrated to the Other World, it had a regular army that had a few hundred thousand soldiers in it.
However, the drastic changes caused by transmigration, the waterlogging caused by the flooding from Red Dragon River, the waves of deaths brought by the spread of the zombie virus, the shattering of the seal over the ancient ruins, and the ancient virus causing plenty of ancient demonic creatures to surge out from the underground caused the regular army to use their precious lives to fight.
The weak zombies were nothing. What brought true disaster to Dragon City and nearly destroyed it overnight was the rciless waters from Red Dragon River and the havoc the ancient demonic creatures wrecked underground.
At that ti, the regular army risked their lives and charged forward, fighting literally until there was only one man left standing.
It was only then that Red Dragon River and the ancient ruins were suppressed.
But the legacy of the regular army was destroyed because of it.
Since there was no regular army maintaining order, Dragon City entered a lawless, bloody era that lasted for ten years.
Then, when Blood Alliance collapsed, Battle Lei Zongchao and the nine gangs rose to power, and they decided to rebuild order.
Lei Zongchao’s good friend, War God Wu Tiedao, was also a soldier in Deity Realm. At that ti, he finally found the remnants of power left behind by the regular army and ford the Blade Squad. After the Survival Committee was ford, they ford the Red Dragon Army with the Blade Squad at its core.
Wu Tiedao was believed to be the creator of the Red Dragon Army.
anwhile, the Blade Squad was the foundation of the Red Dragon Army. They were the seeds that connected the Red Dragon Army and the regular army of Earth, as well as the seeds that spread the legacy of Earth’s regular army.
The Blade Squad never let down the spirit of the regular army on Earth either.
Be it the later stage of the zombie crisis or the most devastating tis during the Monster War, the Blade War always pointed their weapons at the most dangerous battlefields and the most dangerous enemies.
There were seven tis where the Blade Squad sacrificed their lives with the enemy during indomitable charges, and nearly all of them died.
Every ti, even when there was only half a dying soldier left, they would grit their teeth and complete their mission, and then, the Blade Squad would be filled up once more with the most elite soldiers and given the most abundant provisions.
Up to this date, the Blade Squad remained as the ace among aces in the Red Dragon Army.
The standards to be chosen into the Blade Squad were pretty ridiculous. They must be veterans who had survived through multiple battles and must have so sort of disability before they could join the training camp of the Blade Squad, and with the highest standards, they went through brutal training.
The elimination rate of the training was as high as 90%.
The disabled, old soldiers chosen from this might be unable to compare to superhuman fighting squads made purely of superhumans in terms of cultivation realms, but their unshakeable will and willingness to fight despite certain death was definitely greater than the forr.
Plus, none of the ard forces in the Red Dragon Army and ga corporations could compare to their spirits and honor.
The Blade Squad was the epito of the spirit of the army in the Red Dragon Army. No, it was the spirit of the army of the Dragon City!
Following closely behind the Blade Squad was a heavy infantry unit that had just switched out of their gear.
If the Blade Squad represented the spirit of the Red Dragon Army, then this unit with Type 56 heavy motorized armor was the instantiation of the Red Dragon Army’s strongest martial forces.
The Type 56 heavy motorized armor was ford by the rich crystal resources they gained from Shattered Starlake to Raging Waves after they won the northern offense. This was the ultimate equipnt for a single soldier, and it was mass-produced.
The shoulder guards, chest plates, strengthened inserts for the abdominal guard, and leg protectors had six changeable, high-purity crystals embedded in them. Along with the profound and complicated runic symbols on the armor, they could release layers of spirit energy magnetic fields that vastly increased the wearer’s vitality magnetic fields. From there, their cells were stimulated, and their potential was brought out, thus largely increasing their fighting strength.
If they used it along with the strength-accumulation type nano fighting suits, their maximum punching force and 100m dash speed could increase by more than 500%. In fact, so people could jump thirty ters into the air and withstand the impact of landing heavily on the ground.
As such, the normal people wearing the Type 56 heavy motorized armor could display lee combat skills that did not lose to superhumans.
Besides, the modular design for the Type 56, the large number of ports and sliders also made it easy for them to carry all sorts of light or heavy weapons. They could carry hornet rocket launchers, M61 Vulcans, triple-barrel shotguns with large gun muzzles, and other guns.
If the wearer was strong enough, they would have no problems carrying two recoilless rifles and one ammo box that could autoload.
To fight against spirit energy interference, strengthen the soldiers’ minds when it ca to psychological warfare, and strengthen their power in cyberwarfare, the Type 56 heavy motorized armor’s helt had dense antennas that were connected to the helt and the wearer’s cerebral cortex.
A protective shell that looked like a shark’s fin was fixed on the helt to protect the antennas.
From a distance, their helts looked like black horns that rose to the sky.
Hence, the people commonly referred to the Type 56 heavy motorized armor as Black Horn Armor.
The developnt of the Black Horn Armor was no secret.
Many netizens had already seen the pictures of the Black Horn Armor’s prototype on the military forum. In fact, they saw so of the schematics.
However, the Black Horn Armor really only appeared en masse during the pitched battle at the borders of Dragon City this ti, and it was worn by all the squads.
Around five hundred soldiers equipped with the Black Horn Armor gathered together to launch a charge. They had the agility and mobility of infantry units but also had weapons that only tank squads had. Wherever they went, they were unstoppable, and they could really fight head-on against the monster horde that filled the entire place.
Hence, when the fighting videos of the heavy infantry unit equipped with the Black Horn Armor fighting against the monster horde spread through the entire internet, Dragon City was stunned.
After all, not everyone could awaken to supernatural abilities.
Perhaps the youngsters during the Golden Era had more than a 5% chance to awaken to supernatural abilities because they lived in an environnt with ample cultivation resources and also had scientific cultivation thods, but to the young adults and middle-aged n who were in their twenties and thirties and had missed out on developing properly during their developnt period, unless they used unique thods such as taking in drugs with great side effects, like the Deification Capsules, it would be impossible for them to experience being able to run at lightning speed and possessing superhuman strength.
But the Black Horn Armor allowed them to see another way of evolution.
If they could not beco superhumans, then it would still be pretty good if they could get a set of Black Horn Armor!
Hence, when the Black Horn Armor slowly moved through the crowd, the citizens started cheering with fervor, and the cheers were just as great as when they cheered for the Blade Squad that just passed by.
Even the tank square formation and runic symbol machine square formation, which arrived behind the Blade Squad and Black Horn Armor squad, received a warm welco.
The Red Dragon Army now received true glory. The treatnt they received was ten tis better than what ng Chao rembered of his previous life or what they received over the past twenty years of his current life.
It had to be known that while the Red Dragon Army was known to have the largest ard forces in Dragon City, they had always been in a very awkward position.
After all, the Other World had spirit energy, and it was a world where there were huge differences in terms of individual strength.
A Deity Realm superhuman could easily destroy a fighting battalion made of more than one hundred ard soldiers.
In fact, they could appear elusively and attack the army’s supply lines, assassinate the commander, and create all sorts of trouble.
If these things did not work and the Deity Realm superhuman did not manage to kill the commander with one strike, he could still run far away, and the army would have a hard ti chasing and killing him.
Thus, this created a really troubleso problem. The army could not keep the strong in check, and they could not shalessly declare themselves as the spokesperson of the strongest ard forces in the entire civilization either.
Besides, the Red Dragon Army had an innate weakness.
After all, the regular army in the past was destroyed during their fight against the flood in Red Dragon Army and the ancient demonic creatures.
For a total of ten years, Dragon Citizens could only gather around superhumans, and in the form of clubs, gangs, and alliances, fight against the invasion of zombies and crazed robbers.
The strong beca stronger in a world ruled by the law of the jungle and only the fittest survived. Gradually, they reached Earth Realm, Heaven Realm, and Deity Realm.
They also pooled together most of the resources, including the spoils after Blood Alliance was destroyed, the crucial ancient ruins, and advanced technology.
Then, they turned the gangs into industries, and from industries, they created ga corporations. From there, they gained the right to set the rules of the ga and also explain them.
Wu Tiedao might have reconstructed the Red Dragon Army, but he still faced the problem of having no manpower, no money, and no resources.
This was an old soldier who joined the regular army while he was on Earth, and his mind was full of the thought of soldiers being born to obey orders. He had never thought about becoming a warlord to gather people beside him.
Since Battle God Lei Zongchao had already convinced the nine ga corporations to set up the Survival Committee and manage Dragon City’s affairs, Wu Tiedao thought that the Red Dragon Army must be controlled and supported by the Survival Committee for it to remain stable and defend the civilization.
