Chapter 973 Thorns and Roses

Releasing two instantaneous explosions in a short period of time was also a huge burden for Qi Lin. After taking several deep breaths, the violent heaving of his chest slowly calmed down, and the speed of the energy-gathering vortex also tended to Stablize.

"Target No. 1 has been cleared. Group A and Group B are ready... Group A?? Group B?? Hello? Group A? Group B? Lucas?"

"They have been killed." Qin's voice came from the earphones, "Although I don't know what method Xia used, the signals from the two helicopters have completely disappeared. Except for you, everyone has basically disappeared. Can be identified as K.I.A.”

"...What about the automated defense facilities?"

"We haven't been invaded yet, but we have lost traces of target No. 2... According to calculations, the probability that Xia is among target No. 2 is more than 30%."

"The possibility is greater than one, and it's worth taking the risk...especially at this time." Qi Lin said in a deep voice, while controlling the energy-gathering vortex to continuously absorb the radiation energy dispersed in the environment from the surroundings - although This is just a drop in the bucket for the consumption just now, but it is Qi Lin's only supplementary method now.

Moreover, the other party did not have a program to directly invade the automated defense facilities. This is really questionable. They had enough time, but they did not do so... Considering that Xia himself is very likely to be among this team, , Qi Lin couldn't help but begin to doubt the true purpose of this advance team.

"There are no helicopters in the base that can carry people. It will take at least an hour and a half for the ground support troops to arrive at your side. We can only use drones to provide you with equipment support... The delivery time and location have been sent via encrypted email. Here you go." Qin said in the headset.

"What about the fleet parked on the sea? Will it threaten the base?"

"Although the base is indeed within the strike range of the destroyer's medium-range missiles, as long as they dare to fire, their own camouflage will immediately fail, and the automatic defense facilities on the coastline can lock them."

"Understood... From now on, I will keep the radio silent until the official launch of the attack." After receiving the equipment delivery information, Qi Lin turned off the wireless communication. He could not confirm whether the other party had relevant information. Corresponding detection and countermeasures, and the support that the Yukon Fort base can provide to itself is limited to this. If you continue to maintain communication, you will not be able to obtain more intelligence, but it will easily become a flaw to expose yourself.

Taking off his headphones and stuffing them into the pocket of his vest, Qi Lin began to move towards the reef group.

The terrain of the coastline in western Alaska is extremely complex, with cliffs, cliffs, and reefs abounding. Coupled with the dense fog that has extremely low visibility, even if Qi Lin kept his eagle eyes on throughout the entire journey, the limit of his field of vision was only three hundred meters. That’s all.

After walking about two kilometers towards the coordinates where Target 2 last appeared, Qi Lin discovered the wreckage of the Group A helicopter. Several of the helicopter's main rotors were broken, but the marks on the fractures could be seen. , the rotor was not broken, but was broken off by some corrosive chemical substance, and in the bilge of the helicopter, Qi Lin also found a large number of traces that were suspected of being corroded by strong acid.

As for the members of Group A on the helicopter, Qi Lin did not find their bodies. Only a large amount of blood, bullet casings and traces of fighting proved that they had had a fierce battle with the enemy after the crash - and there were also traces of blood in the cabin. There were extremely serious traces of corrosion, and even a large hole with a diameter of nearly half a meter was etched out of the metal partition of the helicopter cockpit. It seemed that the special evolver who shot down the helicopter also participated in the battle on the ground.

Qi Lin used his fingers to dip a little bit of the substance remaining on the corrosion marks, and a burning sensation immediately came from his fingers. The area where Qi Lin's fingers came into contact with the acid quickly turned black and necrotic, and the surface skin became dehydrated almost instantly. Then the corrosive substance began to invade deeper, and a white smoke with a pungent smell rose from the wound...

Qi Lin quickly rubbed the corrosive substance on the cabin, and then used a knife to cut off the necrotic flesh and blood. The bright red blood that poured out immediately began to solidify and form scabs. Within a few seconds, the scabs fell off, leaving his fingers intact. Appeared in front of him again.

"It is very corrosive...stronger than aqua regia. If it is contaminated in large quantities, it will be enough to cause fatal damage to me." Qi Lin thought silently in his heart...This group of guys called Alpha Team, including Xia's two Including the personal guards, none of them are easy to deal with.

The members of Group A who followed Qi Lin this time can also be called elites. The weakest one among them is also at the level of a third-level evolver. However, judging from the traces of the battle, it seems that they can't even meet each other. They were all wiped out before they could survive, and the number of people who attacked, including the acid-using evolver, could not be more than two at most.

Qi Lin couldn't help but feel lucky for the battle strategy he had chosen before. He used two instant bursts to kill the five members of the Alpha Team instantly, ignoring the huge consumption. Otherwise, once their abilities were fully unleashed, Qi Lin couldn't help but feel lucky. , I'm afraid whether I can escape unscathed is a question.

Looking down at the watch-style PDA, he saw that the support equipment from the Fort Yukon base should have been dropped at the predetermined location five minutes ago, and the coordinates of this drop location were three hundred meters directly in front of Qi Lin.

This is a sunken basin... to be precise, it should be a crater left over from a war in the old era. The crater is more than a hundred meters in diameter and about twenty meters deep in the center. There is a metal cabinet painted with gray and white camouflage. It was lying quietly at the bottom of the pit. The surface of the cabinet was covered with a layer of plastic foam for camouflage. From a distance, it looked like an inconspicuous boulder.

Qi Lin circled around the crater, and after making sure there was no trace of the enemy, he walked to the bottom of the crater and dragged the metal cabinet, which was as tall as a person, out of the crater.

Inside the metal cabinet is a new set of power armor. The shape is very similar to the "Thor's Hammer" that Qi Lin once used. However, unlike Thor's Hammer, when the optical camouflage armor is not turned on, the main color of the entire armor is It is extremely bright red, and on the front chest of the armor, there are two slightly raised structures...

There is no doubt that this set of power armor should have originally belonged to Sophia or Ella. However, at this time, there was really no better armor available in the Yukon Fort base, so they could only use this set of power armor specially designed for women. The armor was delivered to Qi Lin.

"Wearing women's power armor... shouldn't be considered women's clothing..."

With such strange thoughts in mind, Qi Lin put on this suit of armor.

Fortunately, the bionic lining tissue inside the power armor has the ability to adjust itself. Even though Qi Lin's body shape is very different from Ella or Sophia, in less than a second, the inside of the power armor has become completely conformable. It conforms to the shape of his body, and even the bulge on the chest has been completely smoothed - from the appearance alone, there is no trace that this was originally a set of women's power armor.

"The operator's identity verification has been passed, and the second prototype of the 'Thorn Rose' is being launched... Various parameters are being modified to the values ​​most suitable for the current operator..."

The protagonist finally dresses up as a woman, spreading flowers~
