I have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 1288 - Counterattack!

Mars synchronous orbit.

With two blue streams closing in, a starship slowly moved closer to the fiery red planet.

Inside the bridge, the staff sitting in front of the computer calmly reported.

“The orbital parameters have been corrected. We are entering the synchronous orbit.”

“All parameters are normal.”

“Initiate mission launch sequence. The drop compartment has successfully separated.”

“Separation successful, and the drop compartment is leaving the synchronous orbit.”

“…”

“The course has been revised. You can leave at any time.”

Looking at the fiery red planet outside the starship, the captain behind the bridge took a deep breath, picked up the wired intercom, and ordered affirmatively, “All units, the main engine is igniting, we’re re-entering our course!”

“Roger that.”

After dropping the compartment suspended on the ship, SS Origin orbited for a quarter around Mars’ orbit and only encountered TS Expedition stationed in synchronous orbit for a moment before it adjusted its course. Origin’s next destination was the Asteroid belt between Jupiter and Saturn.

With a dazzling white light stream pushing behind the starship, the dark ship pierced into the deep universe like a sharp sword and disappeared into the endless blackness.

…

Ten thousand meters below, fierce battles continued outside the colony.

The swarm continued to attack Celestial Trade Marines on the wall, chipping away the colony’s defense with their acid and corpses. The electromagnetic pulse cannon projectiles ravaged the battlefield, sent the yellow sand high up in the air before covering all the blood that spewed. Everything happened so quickly as if nothing had happened, then repeated again and again.

As the two sides fought fiercely, a dark shadow surrounded by a ball flame dropped down from ten thousand meters. Like a meteor, it crashed into the chaotic battlefield.

BOOM!

The steel hull came in close contact with the ground.

The rough, hard landing flattened a sand dune, and a thick yellow haze set off around the impact site.

The bottom of the compartment was deeply embedded in the ground, crushing dozens of Corruptors who were besieging the colony into pieces.

When the bugs stared blankly at the unexpected visitor, the front door of the cabin collapsed, revealing a giant drill bit hidden behind the cabin door.

The bugs that lingered around the compartment seemed to have stop moving as they stared at the metal monster in the middle with confusion. Just as one of the Corruptors tried to spit acid, the metal monster inside started to move.

The engine roared in the thin atmosphere.

With the giant drill, a steel beast emerged from the compartment.

The first difference between this rig and those in colony was its sheer size. This rig was more than double the size of the colony’s tiny rigs. A thick layer of organic anti-corrosive material was coated to the thick titanium alloy armor. This material was extracted from the blood of Devil Worms and could render acid strong enough to erode rocks useless!

The top and sides of the rig were also modified with small-caliber electromagnetic rapid-fire guns, which could accelerate ten-gram pellets to three times the speed of sound. The pellets could easily penetrate the armor of the Corruptors. In addition, there were two augers that resembled large screws on both sides of the heavy rubber tires, to ensure that the rig was unimpeded in any terrain.

Without any exaggeration, it would be fair to say that the steel beast could easily enter and leave the swarm without any damage.

“Drill Warrior”, the name of the steel beast, was painted on both sides of the rig.

The name perfectly explained its functionality. No matter above or below ground, no terrain could stop the steel beast from marching forward!

“DAMN, this thing is giant…” A solider taking cover beside Zhang Hai watched the rig and exclaimed.

“What did I just see? A heavily armed rig?”

“Haha, Drill Warrior, that is a pretty bad*ss name.”

The compartment not only carried the steel beast, but also a hundred T-4H Aerospace Power Armors with corrosion-resistant coating. Unlike the T-4 Power Armor, the T-4H’s minigun was replaced by a relatively slower, but more powerful electromagnetic rapid-fire gun. In the middle were two pairs of vortex engines and two bottles of oxygen tanks were added to increase the oxygen holding for 24-hour consumption.

Soon, the gates on the west of the colony slowly opened, and a group of armored vehicles, in an attack formation, rushed toward the compartment abandoned in the swarm.

Strikes from TS Expedition began to hit on the ground, disrupting the Corruptors that was surrounding the fleet.

As the fleet rushed to the compartment, the door suddenly opened, and soldiers inside armored vehicles jumped off, and gathered together to form a defensive formation. They maintained open fire as they moved closer to the open compartment.

Drill Warrior was already showing off its destructive power in its very first battle.

The augers suspended on both sides of its tires dropped down, then the entire rig was lifted. The giant drill in front of the vehicle aimed down before it turned rapidly.

Sand filled the air.

The entire rig resembled a Devil Worm made of steel. In less than half a minute, the entire body already disappeared into the ground and headed towards the source of the Corruptors.

The entire desert became restless, like limestones being tossed into a lake.

The corrupters, hiding underground, was taken aback by the sudden emergence of the steel beast. Without the ability to dig, they could only spit the acid at the giant rig in vain, using their claws as powerful as steel in an attempt to stop the steel monster’s destruction forward, but their fate was just shredded to pieces by the more powerful titanium drill.

Their offense on the surface suddenly slowed down.

Under the cover of the “Drill Warrior”, the soldiers who stormed into the compartment were equipped with the new power armor. Having already simulated and operated the new power armor in the virtual reality training system countless times, they quickly adapted to this powerful new armor. One by one, they marched out of the compartment with the electromagnetic rapid-fire guns.

“Here is the headquarters. Company A, your task is to follow Drill Warrior to Mine 071, and to recover the land and glory we once lost from those dirty bugs!”

“ROGER!”

Listening to the sound of electric current charging along his right arm, Zhang Hai’s entire body was stimulated with energy.

Streamlined casing, thick titanium alloy armor, blue light pulsing in the gun, and the blood and corpses of the Corruptors splashing on his body.

The futuristic armor hit his G spot.

With such a powerful equipment under his control, he had no doubt about the victory.

The soldiers no longer needed to scramble to take cover against the splashing acid.

Covered by the same material as the blood vessels of Devil Worms, the armor was coated in an organic layer. Even if they were covered with acid, the anti-corrosive nature would protect them in the battle.

Armed to the teeth, the soldiers assembled behind the dunes on the west side of the colony, re-embarked on the armored vehicles, followed the track of the Drill Warrior wrecking havoc underground, and headed in the direction of Mine 071…
