This Game is Too Real - Chapter 607 familiar bait

  Chapter 607 The decoy of deja vu

  North of Jinhe City.

  Old resident settlements.

  Two "Viper" transport planes came one after the other, and stopped in the open space beside the collapsed wall at the gate of the Qi tribe.

  The soldiers of the Burning Corps basically wear light protective gear above the "Type 5" exoskeleton, and a "Viper" can only carry ten to fifteen people.

   To transport all 500 players of the Burning Corps back to the Heart of Steel, which is 60 to 70 kilometers away, the two transport planes alone have to go back and forth several times.

  Honestly, most players don't really want to go back.

  The event is about to end, and everyone wants to earn more points on the front line.

  Besides, the possibility of mutants sneaking into Heart of Steel is just speculation by Brother Spring Water, and it is not something that will definitely happen.

  Old Bai didn’t force it, everyone, after all, there wasn’t enough space for transport planes.

   Except for a few veteran players with higher ranks in the Burning Corps, the other players follow the principle of voluntariness, follow them if they want to go back, and stay on the front line if they don’t want to go back.

  Honestly speaking, he didn't know much about it.

   Mutants might sneak attack on the Heart of Iron. This kind of thing sounds a bit unbelievable, and the Legion can't do this kind of trick.

  The key is that there is no airport nearby!

  Maybe it's spring water that thinks too much?

   "Mutants will really come?" Ye Shi, who was sitting in the cabin, couldn't help but whispered while his heart was pounding.

   "No one knows, everything we do now is just a rainy day for the sake of the entire war situation."

   Fang Chang glanced at the VM screen, but there was no update related instructions in the task bar, maybe it was just that they were thinking too much.

   But he still had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

   To say why...

   I am afraid that just as Quan Shui said, their offensive went a little too smoothly, and they took over the Qi tribe's lair in just four days.

   What is unbelievable is that these mutants are still clinging to the research institute controlled by the Church of the Torch.

  It's hard not to suspect that those magic sticks promised them some benefits, or they still have one or two cards that turned the tables.

   At this moment, a hand suddenly reached into the cabin, grabbed the handrail next to the cabin door, and got in with a whoosh.

  Looking at Jiang Xuezhou who was carrying a suitcase, Ye Shi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously blurted out.

   "What are you doing here?"

   "Go back to the airship," Jiang Xuezhou looked at him strangely, as if he was asking a very idiotic question, "After collecting the samples, if I don't go back to the airship, should I still stay here?"

   There is nothing wrong with saying this.

  The researchers of the academy did not come here to help the alliance fight, but to help study the synthetic monsters created by Nago and the Church of the Torch, and to seek a scientific solution.

  The EMP missile that accurately hit the source of interference was purely her own insistence to show off. He almost forgot that this guy was a non-combatant.

  Looking at Jiang Xuezhou who consciously fastened her seat belt, she couldn't refute her words at eleven o'clock in the evening, but thinking of what everyone was discussing on the forum, she couldn't help but persuade her.

   "You... why don't you stay here."

  Jiang Xuezhou glared at him.

   "What stupid things are you talking about, stay here? I don't want to spend the night here! Just keep it to yourself!"

   Not to mention that there is not even a decent bed here, and the whole camp is filled with a stench, and there are all sorts of messy things, she doesn't want to have nightmares at night.

  This guy actually had the heart to let himself spend the night in such a ghostly place!

  Jiang Xuezhou, who was in a good mood at first, became more and more angry when he thought about it.

Judging by the expression on her face, she could tell that she probably misunderstood something. Ye Shi was dumbfounded and just wanted to explain that he was thinking about her safety, but soon realized that the mutants might attack the Heart of Steel just because they were discussing it on the forum. speculation, not necessarily what will happen.

  Both the forum and the discussion on the forum itself are things that are difficult to explain clearly. He thought for a while, but in the end he was too troublesome to explain, so he nodded helplessly.

"Fine."

  Seeing his unwillingness, Jiang Xuezhou rolled his eyes.

   "Do you need your consent? I have already applied to your manager! Or who do you think this plane is waiting for?"

  Fang Chang and Feng Feng, who were watching from the sidelines, held back their laughter, Ye Shi's expression was a little awkward, and he quickly changed the topic.

   "...Uh, where's your little Wang?"

   Jiang Xuezhou said casually.

   "I left it here, anyway, I will come back later, so it saves me moving around. And this plane can't fit, so let it stay here."

  The size of that thing is as large as a third of a Chimera, and it is really not suitable for moving around, so Ye Shi didn't say anything else.

   But then again, he was quite surprised.

   I didn't expect this guy to be considerate of others...

   While talking, the hatch of the transport plane closed, and with the roar of the plasma engine, two Vipers rose into the air one after another.

  Jiang Xuezhou blocked his ears, and Ye Shi didn't know where to put his eyes, so he drifted to the gray night sky outside the porthole.

   But at this moment, looking at the gray area, he frowned slightly, and lightly poked Fang Chang who was sitting next to him with his elbow.

   "Did you hear something?"

  Fang Chang was taken aback for a moment, and frowned.

"…sound?"

"Um."

  Ye Shi closed his eyes tightly, nodded slowly, and said in an uncertain tone.

   "It's kind of like..."

  When a group of people heard this, they all looked at him. Only Jiang Xuezhou couldn't understand what language he was speaking.

   Waiting for him to listen carefully for a moment, Kuangfeng looked at him and asked seriously.

"like what?"

  Ye Shi opened his eyes, with a hint of affirmation in his voice.

   "...like the sound of wings vibrating!"

  …

  The Bridge of the Iron Heart.

   Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, Chu Guang quietly looked at the gray night outside the window.

  Xiao Qi sat on his shoulder, whispered in his ear, and reported to him the news he had just collected from the forum.

  At this time, the hatch behind him opened, and an officer strode over, stood at attention and gave a military salute.

   "Report! An active jamming signal has been detected in the direction of Jinhe City!"

  The so-called active interference refers to passive interference such as platinum bar reflection. By actively releasing wide-area electromagnetic wave signals to drown out the echoes of the radar, the purpose of making one's own aircraft invisible is achieved.

  A vivid but inappropriate metaphor is holding a large flashlight and shaking it at people's eyes.

  The radar system of the Iron Heart is quite advanced, and it can even see birds hundreds of kilometers away. And because the radar irradiation source is located in the air, there is almost no blind spot, just like an ultra-long airborne early warning aircraft with a shield.

  The other party obviously didn't have the confidence to fool the eyes of the Heart of Steel, so they simply resorted to the method of vigorously producing miracles.

   But this also reveals their intent and active interference.

   "Is the hook straight bait salty?"

  Chu Guang smiled lightly, his face straightened slightly, and he continued to give orders.

   "Pass my order, all units of the ship are on alert, all artillery positions are loaded and on standby, and all members of the carrier air team are on board, ready to take off at any time!"

   "In addition, let the radar team continue to search for the location of the active jamming device, and destroy it immediately after finding it!"

   "Yes!" The officer gave a solemn military salute, turned around and walked quickly to the door.

  Chu Guang then looked at the captain beside him.

  "Since our enemies have already set up their posture, I have reason to believe that they are fully prepared, and don't be careless."

   "I believe in your ability."

   "This airship, I will leave it to you to command."

  After being tempered in a series of battles in Luoxia Province, he still has considerable confidence in the captain he personally promoted.

  Usually, Chu Guang himself only makes strategic deployments. Unless the players have good ideas and need the cooperation of NPCs, he rarely intervenes in the command of the frontline troops.

  The specific tactical details and execution, he still prefers to leave it to professional people to operate.

   Feeling infinitely honored by the trust of the manager, the captain nodded seriously, and said with his right fist on his chest.

   "Leave it to me, I will not let you down!"

   But when he said this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but say something.

   "My lord manager... please allow me to say something more. If the Torch really intends to target the Heart of Iron, it may not be safe here. I suggest that you should avoid it for the time being."

  He wasn't worried about his own personal safety. He was ready to sacrifice from the moment he boarded the airship, but he wasn't the only one staying on the steel airship at this moment.

   If something happens to the manager, it will be a loss for the entire league.

   Obviously he is not the only one who thinks this way, and Lu Bei who is behind Chu Guang is also the same.

   This young man, who usually doesn't talk much, rarely took the initiative to speak, and remonstrated with loyalty on his face.

   "My lord, I think so too! Your safety"

   Facing those two pairs of concerned gazes, Chu Guang just smiled faintly.

   "Don't worry about me, I'll take care of myself, and those few bugs won't let me go around."

   It's not that he wants to make waves, the main reason is that both Vipers are at the front line and haven't come back yet, so it may not be safe to stay here.

   Besides, what is it like to run away as soon as someone else makes a move?

   His managers don't want to lose face?

  Looking at the crowd who still wanted to persuade them, Chu Guang showed a rare majesty that could not be refused, and interrupted what they wanted to say.

"That's enough. Since I'm standing here, it means that I have absolute confidence in you. What you should do at this moment is not trying to persuade me to change my mind, but to be yourself and do what you should do at this moment." !"

   “Go ahead and do it.”

   "I will be here to witness your bravery!"

  The loud voice fell.

   He responded with high morale.

   "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

   There was a fighting spirit in the eyes of the pair.

  The trace of apprehension and hesitation when facing the unknown threat was completely burned away by this burning flame at this moment.

  Even with good intentions, that is an emotion that should not appear on them.

  From the correspondent to the adjutant to the captain, everyone involuntarily clenched their fists, including the guards following Chu Guang.

  They are confident of defeating all opponents—

   No matter who the opponent is!

   This is not only for honor and belief, but also because that stalwart figure stands side by side with them at all times.

  A silent cry echoed in his chest—

  For managers!

  For the Alliance!

  …

  The pre-war mobilization has been completed, Chu Guang left the bridge, and completely handed over the place to the captain and a group of officers.

   And he himself went to the players' save points.

   The deployment of the frontal battlefield can be completely entrusted to those trustworthy subordinates, but in order to ensure the safety of the entire battle, he also needs to add an additional necessary insurance to the airship.

   This job can only be done by his cute little players.

certainly.

   Pensions will not be less.

  The moment his front foot left the bridge, the entire Iron Heart was like a clockwork machine, moving methodically and quickly.

  The radar team quickly locked on the coordinates of the interference source, and a 400mm rocket with extended range quickly completed loading, sending the flame of punishment towards the distant target.

  The other side, offline.

   Goblin Corps group chat.

   "Get on the number, get on the number!"

   "Come to work!"

"Hurry up!"

   After typing three sentences in one second, Mosquito immediately put on his helmet and returned to the line. As soon as he got up from the dormant cabin and went to the corridor, he bumped into the manager striding forward.

   Mosquito's eyes lit up, guessing that the manager appeared here, probably triggering some hidden mission, so he immediately cleared the drake's throat, and said loudly in the same funny tone as always.

   "Good evening, Dear Manager!"

   That voice successfully attracted the attention of the manager.

  Seeing Brother Mosquito, Chu Guang's eyes also lit up, but it didn't show clearly on his face, and he spoke slowly with the airs that an NPC should have.

   "You came just in time, I have a glorious and difficult task to entrust to you."

  WC Mosquito was overjoyed and said hastily.

   "If you have anything to do, just tell me! I'm not talented, but I hope to help the alliance!"

  Looking at the exaggerated movements of the mosquito, Chu Guang smiled in his heart, but remained calm on his face, cleared his throat and continued.

   "The task has been updated on your VM, you just follow the prompts on the task bar, just do it like this..."

  …

  The 400mm main gun was aimed at the urban area of ​​Jinhe City. With a thick and long flame flickering, a rocket with a range-extending range dragging white smoke rose into the sky.

  The scream of falling pierced the silent night sky, and then the tranquility of the entire city was disturbed by the deafening roar.

   It was as if the day had risen from the earth.

   Blowing away several kilometers of fog.

  Looking at the direction of the explosion, Alzu who was standing on the top of the building smiled coldly, but it didn't take long for the smile to freeze on his face.

   "Tsk."

  The good news is that the alliance really bit the bait he threw out, and a heavy rocket hit the top of the disguised source of interference.

  They are very accurate, although they are lonely.

   However, the bad news is that the Alliance has installed a nuclear warhead on this rocket-extended missile, and the Compton effect induced by gamma rays forms a wide-area electromagnetic pulse.

  Although the real interference device was not destroyed, the electromagnetic wave disturbance at this moment completely exposed the camouflage radar he arranged in the city.

  They only need to fire one more shot, and the interference irradiated on the Iron Heart can be completely ineffective.

and…

   Maybe the slight flaw that was leaked just now has exposed the position of the mutant.

  Although he wanted to wait until after all the victories to appear in front of that guy as the Son of God, Arzu knew he had to do something.

  Connected to the chip installed in the set of biological armor named "Nightmare", Alzu cleared his throat, and slowly opened his mouth to remind.

   "You'd better fly low."

  At this moment, Gann, who is soaring in the night sky, is intoxicated with his god-like power, and for the time being knows nothing about the confrontation between the Alliance and the Church of the Torch outside the battlefield.

   He has never been so powerful!

  The entire sky seemed to be surrendering under his wings!

   And those "demons" with sharp teeth and sharp mouths surrounded him with incomparable loyalty, and he only needed a look to make them die for him.

  They were like cells in his body. !

   Just when Gann was intoxicated, a light and ethereal voice floated into his ears, interrupting his boundless reverie.

   Feeling a little annoyed by the voice that appeared in his head out of nowhere, Gann turned over and frowned, and let out a low growl in his throat.

"Who are you?"

  The voice from nowhere continued to speak.

   "I am the Son."

   Hearing this familiar name, Gann narrowed his eyes.

   "Are you the Son?"

   This set of biomass armor was given to him by the Church of the Torch. Of course, he wouldn't even know who these gods were enshrining.

   But what he didn't understand was that the legendary Son would communicate with him in person.

   Arzu paused for a while, and said softly.

"Yes."

   Each of them is the Son.

  Although he did not enter the sanctuary, since Luo Gan took over the position, of course he can call himself the son of the saint.

  The church is not so strict with red tape for internal personnel, as long as it is for the final great plan, everything is allowed.

  However, what Alzu didn't expect was that he thought that the green-skinned animal would have a little humility because of the name of the Holy Son, but he didn't expect that the uncivilized baboon only responded with a wild, unrestrained and disrespectful laugh.

   "Hahaha! You are the Holy Son? Then you just keep your eyes open! Watch how I smashed those two-legged animals to pieces!"

   Not only did he not intend to be low-key and restrained, Gann raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, as if he was afraid that the other party would not notice him, and then he kicked his wings and flew even higher.

  'This idiot! '

   Alzu cursed secretly in his heart, and continued patiently.

"Listen, I'm not kidding you. The Alliance doesn't need to look at you if they want to know where you are. Don't think you can sit back and relax in the fog. If you don't want to bang your head on the metal shells, let your The subordinates spread out, and the height from the ground should not exceed 30 meters! The closer the better!"

   Hearing that voice didn't sound like a joke, Gann finally calmed down and restrained his temper reluctantly.

   "Understood, can you get out of my head first, I don't like talking to guys who hide their heads and show their tails!"

   While speaking, he retracted his wings, and beckoned to the minions around him to descend.

   "Tsk..."

  Alzu clicked his lips, hung up the communication in annoyance, took a deep breath into the foggy night sky, and tried to calm himself down.

  Although this is a beast, unfortunately they need this beast.

   All for the great plan.

   This is also a necessary sacrifice...

  …

   On the other side, the bridge of the Iron Heart is busy.

  The staff sitting in front of the control terminal just got the coordinates of the interference source newly observed by the radar squad, and they have already entered it into the fire control system.

  The 400mm main gun slowly adjusted its angle, reloaded a rocket with a range-extending range, and prepared to fire another shot at the real source of interference.

   And at this moment, a new report came from the radar—

   "A large number of unidentified flying objects have been detected in the south! The flying speed is between 97 and 99 kilometers per hour! The direction is right on us, and there are only 20 kilometers away from us!"

  Hearing the staff's report, the captain asked immediately.

"how much?"

  The staff sitting in front of the control terminal just stared at the screen, and answered quickly.

   "Ten thousand and seventy-eight!"

  The captain's pupils shrank slightly.

   Ten thousand? !

  His first reaction was that this was impossible.

   Anyway, this amount is too exaggerated!

   And the exaggeration is exactly the same as before—

  At that time, the Alliance relied on the bait plane equipped with an active jammer to attract the firepower of the Heart of Steel, and then took advantage of the reloading gap of the Heart of Steel to drive the transport plane over its head.

   Could it be bait too? !

  Outside the porthole is a dark fog, and the setting sun has completely sunk into the horizon. An airship floating in the clouds is like a submarine diving deep into the seabed. It cannot visually observe the surrounding situation at all, and can only rely on radar, the only pair of eyes.

   After waiting for a while, the second heavy rocket hit the source of interference in the urban area.

  As the loud noise of rolling thunder pierced through the fog, the shipboard radar also returned to normal at the same time, and the blurry red dots were finally exposed on the radar screen again.

  The captain ordered decisively.

   "Scan their outlines!"

  He needs to find out what those craft are!

   After a short operation, the staff member immediately reported the observation situation of the radar team.

"The individual size of the cluster is between 2 and 5 meters, the flight speed is extremely uneven, and the shape is constantly changing... They are too close to the ground! The reflected echoes are seriously interfered by ground obstacles, and it is difficult to collect their precise flight parameters. "

  The adjutant looked at the captain.

   "With all due respect, it doesn't look like an airplane... but if it is a jamming bait, the jamming from the urban area seems too deliberate."

  He believed there must be something there.

  The captain thought the same, nodded, and said in a deep voice.

   "What is your judgment?"

  The adjutant pondered for a moment and said.

   "It doesn't have to be an airplane... Could it be some kind of alien species affected by the psychic interference field?"

  The captain looked at him and asked back.

   "Can the working range of the mind interference device be covered from Jinhe City to here?"

  The adjutant's eyes flickered slightly, and his index finger tapped on the radar screen.

   "What if the psychic interference device is also in it?"

  Hearing this sentence, the captain's expression changed slightly, and he immediately ordered.

   "Air defense guns are ready!"

   "Fire into radar marked area!"
