Chapter 575: The Edge of the Bayonet (I)

The sphere flashing with red light passed through the deep green grassland.

Before the infantrymen walking in the front realized what was happening, they came into contact with the restrained fireball that was rolling in the air and dragging a red shadow.

The orange-red fireballs produced by the ion generator swept across the infantry array, and the scorching flames turned into sparks and bloomed at the moment when they exhausted their restraints, engulfing the nearby shield-bearing soldiers.

The red flames rose from the darker earth under the slightly dim sky in the shadow area.

One after another, the rapid-fire fireballs the size of basketballs fell in front of the infantry line at the front of the team, and the bursting flames penetrated all nearby targets. The flowing flames penetrated and penetrated the armor and completely killed small targets.

The high-temperature ion fireball generator technology used by the Ring Island Alliance is equivalent to exchanging kinetic energy armor-piercing ability for higher range lethality. The power of each rapid-fire fireball is equivalent to a weaker 40mm grenade... It just doesn't have such a strong explosion power, and the armor-piercing ability is extremely limited, but the flame lethality is excellent.

A fire range kill with strong penetration to the armor worn by light armored units.

The fire will penetrate regular armor and seep into the gap to cause damage to the target.

A weapon completely specialized for light armor and small units.

It is not as effective as it seems against targets of the same level, but the mechas can always pick up their long-handled weapons and use the characteristics of extremely fast nerve reaction speed to have a hearty melee with the enemy's medium-sized units.

The problem of the Ring Island Alliance at that time was that the Flesh Turbine was not a small unit, and it had a layer of steel armor on its body, and it was not susceptible to melee combat.

"Formation! Enemy energy weapons! Shield!"

The centurion roared hoarsely.

The shield-bearing infantry in the queue smashed the square shield in their hands to the ground, and the energy shield rose along the edge of the marching column.

With the five holy priests of the Moon Realm accompanying the army in the military formation as the core, and the trained soldiers of the double hundred infantry square formation composed of 150 people as the pillars, the pressure of the military formation-level miniaturized shield was dispersed to everyone in the array.

Each attacking infantry unit was protected by a shield barrier as flat as a dewdrop, emitting a faint light in the shadow area.

"Tsk, energy shield." Xu Yan saw the dewdrops spread out on the ground in the distance, and asked the mecha guards to focus their firepower on one of the "dewdrops" first.

Why does the Vatican's troops look different from what the ground lord and himself said?

It seems, stronger?

It's really unlucky. This mining station hasn't been running for long, and it has encountered

Xu Yan is not surprised, after all, the mining station of the Ring Island Alliance is located in one of the most resource-rich areas in the shadow area.

"Each team concentrates firepower and prioritizes suppressing nearby enemies! Rock elements, everyone who can still hold weapons, roll to the second line to stabilize the front line, I have already asked the lord of the nearest outer ring defense zone for help."

When the sky ship arrives at the turtle-like speed, they are already dead and can't be any colder. At this point, they can only ask for reinforcements from other ground lords.

They have enough expendable soldiers to support this mining station until the main force of the Ring Island Alliance arrives on the ground.

Four thousand-man teams, a bit too much, but not a problem.

‘Charging completed. ’

Xu Yan’s eyes fell on the visual template inside the mecha. The mecha’s onboard fireball has been fully charged and can continue to fire.

He focused his eyes on the infantry line not far away and pulled the trigger.

Compared with the spears forged by technological civilizations for attack, magic civilizations often take another path.

Shield.

They learned how to protect themselves very early, how to use energy to build a protective barrier to protect themselves from harm, and deflect the incoming blows to other directions.

This is their ‘shield’.

Protection is survival.

When technological civilization develops to the extreme, there will be a situation of ‘discovery and destruction’, which is the ultimate form of the ‘spear’.

Just like the thrown Kungunir, the so-called connection of fate, I see you, and then death comes.

Discovery and destruction.

In fact, most lords, due to their own particularity, advance in the three lines of technology, runes, and magic together, but the priority of advancement is different.

Just like our Mr. Ji Lin now, he is just trying his best to forge his spear, and he doesn't even consider the shield.

Firepower is victory.

For Ji Lin now, it is still a bit of a luxury to have both a spear and a shield, and the island alliance is unwilling to share their mecha shield technology.

When facing the shield, Xu Yan's method is to attack one target first to confirm the threshold of their shield to withstand damage.

"Charge posture! Just like fighting in normal times! The enemy has constructs and monster infantry, and implement anti-medium unit tactics!"

The centurions observed that the fireballs in the distance began to focus on other teams, and quickly issued orders to their own teams.

The remaining troops canceled the raised shields, and the infantry uniformly retracted the shields inserted in the ground and rushed forward quickly. The heavy shield was instantly weakened to only a layer of bubble-like film that could be blown away.

This film looks fragile, but it is enough to resist the attack of small projectiles.

The soldiers had no intention of shielding their colleagues who were under attack. They knew that they had to advance to the enemy's front as quickly as possible while their colleagues bought time for them.

This was the best way to help their colleagues.

Get closer, get closer.

The fact that the Church has a strong enough shield does not mean that their spears are not sharp.

It's just that their spears are too short.

They need a strong enough "shield" to allow them to reach a distance where they can throw their spears.
