Chapter 284 Corrupted Wasps and Action

In the semi-enclosed transport cabin, the soldiers sat on the seats embedded in the bulkheads on both sides to prepare for the upcoming offensive plan. When entering the combat state, these seats can be quickly flipped up and fixed on the bulkhead to avoid interfering with the soldiers' shooting and movement.

Some soldiers stood in the open shooting window to observe the external environment: a vast forest was divided by several rivers, and at the limit of the line of sight was a huge mountain range with gray and green intertwined on the sky island. From time to time, cloud-dwelling creatures rose from the mountains and forests and rose into higher clouds.

Sky Island No. 3 not only has inverted mountains, but also a real mountain range.

There are no mountains in the territory, only rolling hills, and the hills always maintain lush green fields. After the hunting team cleared the monster camps in the territory several times, there were no dangerous creatures within a radius of 50 kilometers in the territory, and it was in a relatively safe safety zone.

This was also the first time that people living in the territory saw the existence of mountains, majestic and magnificent, with the peaks swallowed by clouds.

The airships in the airport often use it as a guide for their actions, and start to use wood to build special wooden guideposts up to 30 meters high at various marking points on the mountain.

No one gave it a name, and the soldiers were only used to calling it the Great Mountain Range.

This endless mountain range almost divides the Sky Island into two halves.

Countless creatures live here.

The exploration of the mountains that should have been carried out was also suspended due to the high risk, and the airport troops could not spare so many manpower to escort Aina to complete the exploration.

The airship is still moving slowly, so slowly that you may not be able to feel the wind outside the window when sitting in the ship and opening the shooting window.

The speed of four kilometers per hour is not fast, but it is almost doubled compared to the two kilometers per hour of marching in the woods.

Considering that there may be dangers in marching in the forest, the advantage of taking an airship almost crushes land operations. The only advantage is that land operations have much higher concealment than airships.

However, the remaining creatures on the island have become accustomed to these steel creations that occasionally pass through the forest, and will no longer attack them like they did at the beginning... There is no special turret on the top of the airship, and it is still very annoying if there is always something flying up to hit the steel.

Four airships carry 210 light infantrymen equipped with new rifles, a total of seven platoons of troops. These light infantrymen equipped with new rifles will be the absolute main force of the fleet during land battles. There are also 1,200 hunting spiders filling the cargo hold. The newly added pods of the airships are for them to use.

These little things don’t know what death is, and the territory can safely pull them to die without considering psychological problems. Ji Lin forced every soldier to rest for a week after being recalled to reduce the psychological impact of death.

Not everyone can have psychological toughness V.

When the ground staff rushed them on board, they found that the cargo hold was overweight, and specially picked out a few guys who were fatter than other scout hunting spiders.

Soldiers can't do anything except sit in the airship and chat to relieve their stress, or lean back in their chairs and close their eyes to recall the combat skills they learned during training.

Entertainment activities are prohibited during the mission.

After all, the speed of the airship is too slow. It takes three hours to move a distance of 12 kilometers, and five hours to move 20 kilometers. The airship engine cannot provide directional thrust very well, and other engines that provide power must be introduced to improve it.

The bored soldiers counted the neatly arranged paper shell fixed bullets in their bullet bags one by one, and played with them in their hands. With the help of the bullet bag, the soldiers can quickly take out the bullets from it and reload them once, which slightly increases the reloading speed of the soldiers using the new rifle.

Since Ji Lin did not decide on the name of the new rifle, the soldiers could only call it the new rifle.

"The goal of this mission is to clean up the corrupted wasps."

In the command ship, the major issued combat orders to the map spread out in the cab, and seven platoon-level officers were crowded in the cab.

The map is not big, it just depicts the terrain near the nest of wild corrupted wasps. An ordinary small plain near the mountain is cleared by the wasps, and the nest is built relying on the natural support structure of the mountain. The nearby area is marked with a large number of tree demons, and these tree demons who can use magic are also extremely difficult for soldiers.

"I suspect that our recent actions left too many biological debris, which made these wasps find that there are a lot of food sources here, so they built nests here."

"Our reconnaissance troops have confirmed the location of these wasps' nests through early reconnaissance."

They will cut trees with saw teeth, crush them and mix them with their own secretions to build hexagonal nests. At the same time, they will clear the trees near the nest to prevent other creatures from invading.

This makes it convenient for the airport troops to deploy troops, and there is no need to use some violent means to clear the landing field.

"If they don't engage us, we will directly use explosive packs to destroy their nests and complete the task of clearing the target. The Corrupted Wasps that have lost their nests will not affect us in the short term, and we will destroy their main nests when the time comes."

The major raised his head and scanned the officers nearby, and saw the expressions of understanding on the faces of the officers at the platoon level.

"Are there any other questions that need to be confirmed?"

"What if the tree demons in the nearby area are also alarmed?"

An officer stretched out his hand to ask a question, confirming the distance between the Corrupted Wasps and the tree demons on the map.

The camp of the corrupted wasps was indeed too close to the nearby tree demons.

"Don't worry, I've applied to the territory to equip each team with 100 kilograms of explosives for this operation."

Enough to solve the problem.

The major cleared his throat.

"Let's clear it together. The seven platoons of troops are called in this time to solve other possible problems."

If the territory had not run out of oil, Ji Lin would have already filled the airship troops with incendiary bombs to fight against the local abnormal creatures hidden in the woods - there was a reason why the subhuman country had not completely controlled an island in the sky for several years.

But he had no shortage of explosives, he had extremely cheap high-performance explosives.

The major turned his sight back to the window, in front of the increasingly large mountain range, he could already see some unnatural creations gradually appearing on the surface in the distance. Some wood-brown block nests began to grow along the mountain range, and at the bottom of these nests were placed a large number of creatures' corpses.

In the woods not far from a small piece of flat land, there was a darker green forest, which was the residence of the tree demons.

The target they need to attack can already be observed at visual distance.

"All ships are approaching to prepare for docking, and all officers are returning to their platoon-level units to prepare them for battle."

[Cluster Tactics: The Corrupted Wasp will increase its attributes by an additional 10%-30% when its own number is greater than the enemy's, and increase its hit rate by 15% when fighting against large units. You don't want to see a group of human-sized wasps rushing towards you...]

[Nest Construction: Corrupted Wasps will build their nests in a fixed place and transform the place into a corrupt swamp suitable for their survival. A place to store food and feed corrupted wasps. You may even find their eggs inside. 】

【Deadly wasps that absorb magical elements. They like to live in swamps and build nests in swamps. These highly toxic wasps are not as gentle as other wasps. When they detect food nearby, they will quickly rush to build their own nests. 】

【Fortunately, their body structure is not easy to maneuver quickly after being enlarged. 】
