Chapter 693: Berserker
Organization headquarters, basalt chambers.
"Those rookies who didn't even pass the formal assessment of the Thunder Falcon team, you can rest assured that you will throw them into Vault 444? It's not like you don't know what's going on there! A somewhat angry voice said.
"So what?" The other's tone was very calm, accompanied by the sound of sipping tea.
"This task must be revoked immediately, death during the training process is unavoidable, but directly send your subordinates to that kind of place, this is not called training, it is called giving people heads!"
"What if I told you that Subject 'Q' is on this team?"
“‘Q’? That's it...... In the virtual world...... Is there a 'Q' who has been in contact with the main brain proprioceptional consciousness? ”
"Yes, besides, this mission was originally a lie, according to the information that has been obtained, none of the high-ranking members of the Edas Consortium in Vault 444 have survived, and naturally there are no hostages who need to be rescued."
"No hostages? Then why did you send them ......"
"I was tempted to see if the mastermind would do anything to Q...... We haven't yet fully determined why the mastermind and 'Q' came into contact, but this may be an opportunity. ”
"Okay...... I can't control these things and don't want to care about them, but the frontal battlefield of Vault 444 is now on the verge of collapse, and you know what the consequences will be if things get out of hand. ”
"Don't worry, a hundred 'Basaka' have just been transported to the front on a special special train bound for the front, and according to the time, there is still half an hour left, and they will arrive at the battlefield."
……
……
Vault 444, Tunnel III.
A loud bang rang through the rock formation, and the entire Third Tunnel shook violently, and debris and dust fell from the top of the tunnel and smashed on the heads and shoulders of the soldiers.
"What's going on?"
"What's going on?"
Although the soldiers were a little surprised, they were not panicked, because in front of them, there was a steady stream of parasites, which were attacking the defense line built by the humans under dense firepower.
The corpses of the parasites had been laid out on the ground in layers of ground, and the human position was almost littered with scrapped barrels and shell casings - within the tunnels, the most powerful weapons of the human forces were allowed to use 105 mm cannons, and they were only allowed to fire directly along the tunnels, so the main force to stop the Kuroshio could only rely on those large caliber cannons and various light automatic weapons.
"The defense line of Tunnel 1 has collapsed, the movement just now is that they detonated the explosives, directly blew up the tunnel, Tunnel 2 and Tunnel 4 are almost unable to support, the parasite has rushed to the front of the defense line, casualties have begun to appear, ammunition and weapon spare parts are about to run out, they are asking us for help." A communications soldier said to the young officer sitting behind the defensive line.
"Asking for help?" The young officer repeated the word with a wry smile, his hand gripping a remote control on the other end of a self-destruct system capable of blowing up a two-kilometer-long tunnel, and he would press the switch on the remote as soon as the parasite broke through the line in front of him.
"How many bases do we have in our ammunition reserves?"
“…… Three, no, two and a half. The logistics officer immediately replied.
"In other words, at the current rate of attrition, if we don't get support from the rear, we will fight for another five minutes, and we will be dumbfounded, right?"
"Yes." The logistics officer nodded.
"Prepare the wounded to retreat." Before the young officer could say the word "retreat" for retreat, suddenly there was a whistling sound of an express train from behind, and a blinding light quickly approached the defensive position from the tunnel behind.
"Is it a support ......?" The young officer's brow slackened slightly, but quickly furrowed again.
This new train only has three carriages, which means that the reinforcements are only two or three hundred people at most, and even if it is not manned, but full of ammunition, it can only keep the line of defense for another ten minutes.
The braking performance of the train is very good, and it takes less than a minute to go from hundreds of kilometers per hour to a standstill.
A guy in a black uniform, never seen by a young officer, jumped out of the car, walked up to him, and presented a ID.
"Lieutenant Colonel, let your men get ready, and when the 'Basaka troops' are deployed, they will immediately retreat more than three hundred meters, you know, these things in the carriage are not friend or foe."
"Did you even go out of the country...... Okay, I got it. The young officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel showed a complicated expression on his face and nodded silently.
"Well, I just like working with people who are efficient." The black uniform retrieved his papers and returned to the train, and ten seconds later, the train's carriages were opened, and a group of soldiers in the same black uniform carried off the train "coffins" that were two laps larger than the game cabin.
"Let the brothers prepare to retreat, and leave the parasites to them to deal with." The young officer said to the herald.
"Sir...... That, Basaka troops...... What is it? Why have I never heard of it? The logistics officer, who was also in his early twenties, suddenly asked.
"Berserker, Berserker troops, Basaka is just a transliteration. These are a group of super transformers specially created for battle, usually sealed in freezers, and they will only be released when they are needed, these people are a group of fighting machines, with strength comparable to high-level evolutionaries, and Basaka's blood has a strong chemical toxin, parasitic worms cannot invade their bodies...... However, they have two fatal flaws. ”
"Flawed?" The logistics officer was apparently unaware of this particular transhuman.
"The first flaw is that they will only carry out the initial orders given at the beginning after entering the combat state, completely partly friend or foe, and the second flaw is...... Basaka is a one-time consumable, and I've never heard of a Basaka that can be involved in more than two battles. ”
"Open the freezer compartment and stop the delivery of inhibitors." The black uniform ordered, and the lids of the coffins that had been removed from the train were opened one by one, and a bone-white chill emanated from them.
By this time, all the soldiers had withdrawn from the defensive position, except for the automatic cannons operated by the fire control system, and the parasites had finally rushed to a distance of less than a hundred meters from the defensive line.
A burly giant, more than three meters tall, crawled out of the freezer and lined up in front of the defensive position.
When they first crawled out, they were covered in a thin layer of frost, but soon, the frost quickly melted and turned into rising water vapor - the blood of these basakas was gradually boiling, and the temperature on their bodies had risen by nearly 100 degrees Celsius in just a few seconds!
The young logistics officer counted the number of Basaka that had been removed from the train, a total of twenty, which was a bit disparity compared to the thousands of parasites on the other side.
"Enter the command: Destroy all living targets in front of you."
