Apart from relay laser communication, there were still so other thods to break through the rebel army's communication blockade, such as strong pulse signals. Although these carried limited information, they were sufficient to send so pre-agreed code contents, like the simple codes from 00 to 99, which were adequate for use.
All residents of Jiaming Town were captured, and Chen Fei got the news at the first mont.
The combat ch squad, which had never been put to use, carried a "Dragon Slayer Missile" warhead and rushed along the highway straight to Jiaming Town, maintaining continuous pulses through strong pulse signals.
For example, 00 ant moving, 010 ant no enemy contact, 02 ant non-combatant civilians spotted, 03 ant friendly combat personnel discovered, 04 ant multiple enemy targets found... and so on. These were for temporary use and didn't require encryption.
Chen Fei also considered requesting a combat ch legion from the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation for his operation.
Combat chs were ard with railgun combat rifles and carried high-explosive bombs, capable of long-range shooting and close-up blasts. They preferred a war of attrition with the parasitic species, aiming for mutual annihilation. They were even more willing to fight to the death than Louis Landon's provided "Suicide Squad," not hesitating at all to self-destruct. It was all or nothing.
If he could have thousands of combat chs, there would be no need for any "Suicide Squad" or "Strong n Team."
If one didn't consider the actual loss of life, Chen Fei's tactical qualities were no less than those of professional military commanders experienced in warfare.
Indeed, this is the nature of war itself – everything relies on sheer strength; get it done and that's that!
However, Blue Star Sovereignty would not send such a military equivalent ard force at any cost, not allowing Chen Fei to have his way.
Deploying such a large force amounted to a de facto ard invasion, a situation that was not easy to resolve.
If Louis Landon, a guest of honor among various sovereignties, couldn't achieve this, then Chen Xiao'er—an ordinary commoner—had even less chance.
-
Within the effective kill radius, the "Dragon Slayer Missile," which had destructive power even greater than nuclear weapons, wiped out most of the "townspeople" in one fell swoop. Parasites, along with their hosts, were reduced to ashes, leaving no trace behind.
As expected of Louis Landon's "past life" specialized weapon against the parasitic species, once detonated, the parasites did not stand a chance.
Those "townspeople" who were controlled by the parasites had no idea that their opponent would start off with such massive weaponry. Their swarm formation seed terrifying at first glance, but it was only scary in appearance.
The remaining combat chs conducted a ruthless and rciless purge, continuously shooting survivors, and unerringly targeting the location of parasites for a final shot.
To the parasitic species, fully ard combat chs were their natural predators.
The psychokinetic attacks, which parasites were best at, were totally ineffective against artificial intelligence AI, and they could not infest the steel-fortified chanical bodies.
Higher-rank parasites, were not poisoned to death after infesting the Suicide Squad, were obliterated in the pale blue deathwave of the "Dragon Slayer Missile."
The Elental Storm had yet to dissipate, and surviving parasites of low rank found it very difficult to cast spells. Even if they managed to do so, their firepower was far inferior to the barrage from railgun combat rifles. The AI controlling the combat chs was the battle-hardened "Adam," exceptionally good at evasion, turning the situation into a one-sided massacre.
In less than an hour, the combat chs broke into Jiaming Town for the final sweep. The dead were thrown onto the streets, set ablaze, while the living were dragged out for focused fire and a finishing shot.
The simple code 77 was sent along with a strong electromagnetic pulse.
As Chen Fei continuously received codes representing the progress of the battle—46 for major annihilation, 52 for breaching into the town, 53 for searching for remaining enemies—he tily issued the command to capture prisoners alive, the simple code 77.
Just then, the "Strong n Team," who had withdrawn from Jiaming Town, returned and were greeted by bodies strewn haphazardly, which inevitably made their scalp tingle.
Even with radio interference, these combat chs still retained a high degree of autonomy and intelligent operation, with an efficiency in killing that they had seldom seen before.
The artificial intelligence AI "Adam" had been an old hand at this more than thirty years ago, and the programming of its individual combat tactics module was near perfect.
The "Strong n Team" had arrived too late after all.
After the battle ended, the remaining seven combat chs escorted four tightly bound prisoners onto three fuel vehicles found in the town, heading for the highway to the suburbs of Nandu City.
As they passed the mbers of the "Strong n Team," the vehicles slowed down, and one of the combat chs played a pre-recorded ssage in Chen Fei's own voice.
"Latest order, escort to the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation in the outskirts of Nandu City."
Although Chen Fei wasn't present, his orders could still arrive.
The mbers of the "Strong n Team" hurriedly drove after them in a flurry.
After receiving the return code from the combat ch squad, Chen Fei breathed a temporary sigh of relief. Although he had not found Xia Ji's whereabouts, the pressing issue of the new parasitic trouble hadn't been botched.
The combat chs' search capability was more ticulous than humans, repeatedly sweeping the entire town inside and out. If no stragglers were found, then there truly were none left.
The only regret was that Xia Ji's whereabouts were still unknown. It was unclear whether he had been parasitized or taken sowhere else. It was an ongoing threat, and most importantly, Chen Fei's knowledge of the parasitic species was limited. Moreover, the limited future "prophecies" that Louis Landon could provide were not comprehensive.
Once the "Strong n Team" completed the escort mission, they would then continue to escort the "Intelligence Team" in the search for Xia Ji.
With the protection of the "Strong n Team," the "Intelligence Team" would have an extra layer of security during operations.
Taking advantage of the escort team's arrival at the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation, Chen Fei sent out a combat request to the Defensive Command Center there.
"A convoy will be arriving at the Dinsional Gate shortly; they're my people. I request combat support."
"Please provide identification in advance!"
The Defensive Command Center did not reject him outright, which made Chen Fei feel it wasn't too bad. He imdiately sent the prepared list of personnel.
At this critical juncture of the Dinsional Gate defense battle, this place was not so easily accessible to just anyone. If one's identity and origin were not clarified, what if they were the enemy?
```
Power player Louis Landon thought three steps ahead, and so details that others overlooked instantly took effect.
All mbers of the three teams were Blue Star People, with not a single one tied to Cangqiong Star, so at least there was no need to worry about their bottom-line loyalty.
"Rookie! What's this about prisoners?"
As Chen Fei had expected, the Defense Command Center had approved the personnel list, but a clarification was needed about the captured Parasitic Species and their hosts.
Despite the Earth-shaking conflict between the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation in the suburbs of Nandu City and the Rebel Army, where both sides were almost bashing their brains out, the forr had never considered intervening in the internal affairs of Cangqiong Star. Therefore, they had always been on the defensive, fighting passive battles. If it weren't for Chen Fei's chanical Dragons continuously taking the initiative to attack, they would have been even more passive.
The X-D-005 Giant Dragon-type Combat Mobility Armor was authorized by both parties as a free combat unit on the battlefield, and there were more than one reason and rationale for this.
However, that did not include suddenly capturing so unidentified prisoners from over a hundred and fifty kiloters away. Chen Xiao'er seed to be doing sothing unrelated to the defensive battle, which was confusing.
The Defensive Command Center, however, did find so reasons. Chen Fei also had another task, which was to pursue key mbers of the Water Bear organization such as Xia Ji. This was entrusted jointly by the Slan Royal Family and the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee. But the nas of Xia Ji and others were conspicuously absent from the submitted list; there were only a few ambiguous words about prisoners, with no further detail.
"They are the captured Parasitic Species, currently in a parasitic state."
Coming from the "prophecy" of the influential Louis Landon, the Blue Star Civilization was indeed being terminated by the hands of the Parasitic Species, and Chen Fei did not mind unveiling this truth.
Getting the Blue Star Civilization to start preparing earlier wasn't a bad thing at all.
"Parasitic... Species?"
The communications officer in contact with Chen Fei confird the term word by word, as she had never heard of it before.
The term "Parasitic Species" had once appeared on the public internet for a while before quickly vanishing. Most people nowadays did not know of such a species.
Chen Fei had "Adam" perform a big data search and filtering to scan for so fragnts of information.
"Hold on, I need to report this..."
The conversation was temporarily interrupted as the communications officer stood up to report to her superiors.
Half an hour later, a response was finally received.
"Permission granted to enter. Approval for proactive strikes granted, with heavy firepower support available on standby."
It seed that soone finally understood what the term "Parasitic Species" really ant and what terrifying existence it represented, and it had to be taken seriously.
While Chen Fei's actions were not pre-authorized, each step he took made it impossible for the Blue Star side to refuse his actions.
The Defense Command Center and Chen Fei shared the sa thought, which was to give the Rebel Army a good thrashing, preventing them from paying attention to the arriving escort team.
"Roger! 'Adam,' take off!"
"Please wait a mont!"
The chanical Dragon, poised to soar proudly into the skies, was suddenly called to a halt.
"Take this with you, just in case."
The Defense Commander tossed a box towards the chanical Dragon from afar.
A slit imdiately appeared on the dragon's surface, swallowing the box whole.
"Is this… a magic potion?"
Chen Fei opened the box that had slid into his hands, finding six neatly fixed potion bottles, complete with an instruction manual.
This probably counted as achieving freedom with magic potions, right?
Damn it!
He had thought he'd make a fortune, but the intention behind this was to make him work himself to death.
Life was not so easily gambled with.
He tossed it into the Space System Alchemy Storage Device.
"Take off!"
The body felt heavy, and the surrounding view imdiately shifted from ground to sky.
"'Adam,' chart a course for the escort convoy, and mark threatening targets."
Chen Fei's hands moved swiftly to perform tactical programming, constructing an entry corridor together with "Adam."
It was not easy for the external convoy to approach the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation; naturally, the Rebel Army would not let them pass smoothly right under their noses.
Now that they had the support of the ground automatic firearms platforms of the Dinsional Gate Managent Substation, Chen Fei felt even more confident.
The ti was now 15:20 in the afternoon. Sleepyheads, it's ti to get up and party!~
The chanical Dragon spit out particle beams, actively setting off the prelude to a great battle...
