Chapter 386: Expulsion
Chapter 386: Expulsion Operation
The stationed mechanical structure lowered its head and observed the invaders.
Observing these creatures with dark brown thorny fur coming out of the forest: they were wearing thick forged steel armor and holding long swords or spears that flashed with cold light.
There were also big goblins following behind them, cowering and holding spears in their hands.
Jackals.
It didn't need to know the other party's name, it only knew that it should follow the garrison order given to it by the officer.
Their mission was to garrison this wasteland while the hunters were on the move and kill the hostile targets they had never seen.
The airborne steam boiler started, and the arc spear was charged.
The flickering light was like a bright blue flame.
The enemy is five medium-sized units and one hundred and fifty small spear-wielding units.
The ‘straw’ units are advancing slowly in the field full of sparse plants, reducing damage to the sparse plants born in the field.
This is why they were assigned to guard the plants, not the steam spiders.
The steam machine soldiers can pass through the field with less collateral damage due to their simulated structure, unlike the steam spiders with lower chassis, which will break all the bushes and plants on the route once they charge.
It is best to give them the task of guarding... a medium-sized structure with non-contact attacks at medium and short distances.
The jackal team stared at the five machines that began to linger with bright lights, and wanted to slowly retreat into the forest... to avoid alarming these steels to make more dangerous actions.
They moved forward on their slightly slender mechanical feet. Everyone in the team knew that these monsters were focusing on them.
"Damn it!"
The Jackal Captain looked at the constructs that were only a few inches taller than him, thinking that these were the machines that would wipe out all the monsters.
Hold your breath and concentrate.
The arc flashed and burst the moment it hit a Jackal Scout, tearing the air and separating a new arc that directly hit the Goblin standing there stupidly holding an iron spear.
This big Goblin should have been with its companion, throwing away the weapon in his hand and turning to run away.
But perhaps he was shocked by the roar and hissing of the moving steel, and perhaps he looked at several three-meter-tall Jackal Captains standing still.
It didn't run away, so it lost its life.
Whether it was the jackals or the goblins, they were holding iron weapons in their hands, and the arcs that penetrated the air were perfect targets.
Starting from the gun-shaped arc generator and ending at the iron spear.
The arcs spread out, penetrated the target, and destroyed the nerves.
Scorched the flesh and blood.
The jackal captain stood there, watching the arc carbonize a goblin that didn't even have time to scream and was attracted by the trees.
The blazing blue arcs were like long blades, freely projecting their remaining energy on the trees. The current dissociated the air and released ozone, which entered the jackals' sensitive noses with a hint of freshness.
He already knew how the carbonized black traces produced by the trees next to the white ash were produced.
Smoldering fear enveloped its brain, gnawing at the courage of this alien.
Escape, must escape.
Unable to fight, unable to resist.
The jackal captain took a deep breath,
A long spear fell, piercing the jackal captain beside him and the trees behind him, and the flashing arc destroyed life.
The iron spear smashed the flesh and forged steel armor, piercing through and spilling blood all over the ground.
What happened?
The mechanical construct strode forward and rushed up to tear apart a jackal captain who was in a sluggish state due to the arc and killed him instantly.
He turned around and wanted to escape.
Must, must return to the territory as quickly as possible to tell the tribe leader.
Fifty meters, one hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters.
The giant figure of the Jackal Captain crashed through the forest, bringing up a cloud of dust and debris.
A sharp scream from the goblin sounded, and the Jackal Captain did not stop his steps, observing the captured green monster with his peripheral vision.
"Save me, save me - you said you would protect me!"
It begged the Jackal to come back and rescue it. Goblins were not as flexible and fast as the Jackals, and could quickly pass through bushes and green forests.
The chief promised them that the Jackals would be the vanguard, and the goblin mages only needed to wave their staffs behind them to cast spells.
The scream stopped abruptly, and he watched with his peripheral vision that the head of the goblin caster was like a piece of broken tofu flowing between the palms of the steel monster.
How can they catch these Goblin Mages...
How can it be...They are moving so slowly in the flower field.
It looked at the steam machine soldiers striding behind it in astonishment, and measured the speed of both sides in its mind...It couldn't catch up with it, and the Jackal only needed a little time to pull away.
An arc of electricity passed through the forest and locked onto the armor of the Jackal captain. After hitting the armor, the current penetrated into the nerves and began to spread...Metal arcs like conductors the most, and are the best indicators.
Not too strong, the current can temporarily paralyze the actions of those hit...They raised their arms equipped with hydraulics and crushed their lives.
Paralysis, clearing.

"Well, this route is indeed correct."
The captain tapped the tip of his pen to draw a map. This map, which was drawn continuously as the survey progressed, gradually formed a territory exploration map. The hunters who were mobilized advanced in three directions.
There was no difference in the geographical environment of the three directions.
Beyond the coast, there were large tracts of dense forests, hiding a large number of monster nests and camps.
Because it was on the way, they cleared all the visible camps on the target path as they marched, no matter how small the mosquito legs were.
As long as the escapers pointed out a clear direction for them, the fleet would follow the blood trail and then find the alien camp.
Eliminate it.
A large-scale gathering of monsters had no way to hide their whereabouts.
Cooking smoke, water sources, activities.
And they didn't find that Jilin's territory was blocked by a large number of mountains in the middle, and the distance of 100 kilometers was not considered a distance that the two cities passed by.
Geographically, they are not far apart.
These camps that are quite close to the territory have been tested by the system, and each lord can use these alien camps to hone his own troops.
They are not so powerful that the lords cannot resist them, and they will not suffer heavy losses if they are not careful, but these alien camps are strong enough to allow the lords to think about how to deal with them.
Except for Jilin, he has never thought about large-scale external expansion, even though the population has increased by 20,000... and will increase by 100,000 in the future.
He decided to run his own place that can be truly called a "city" with peace of mind.
His development was not normal.
Abnormal development is his normal path.
The company commander raised the telescope produced in the territory in his hand.
Although the lenses used in these telescopes are not high in magnification, it means that the territory has the technology to independently produce transparent glass and grind glass lenses.
Although the glass manufacturing workshops are hired by the lord from the Holy City at a high price.
The money is not ten thousand, but the money is enough to do a lot of things.
The water arc magnifying mirror created by the Eagle Eye Technique can be superimposed with the telescope, allowing the observation distance of the officers in the territory to extend from 800 meters to more than kilometers, and the distance of high-altitude detection can be further extended.
For example, the riverside camp that has already taken shape as a mixed-species town is now reflected in the mirror.
Dozens of smoke rises slowly, and the jackal commander drives the goblins to turn over the land and irrigate the river. Simple fishing boats wander around the dock, fishing for the abundant fish in the river.
They are farming, expanding and building this camp. The telescope provides the captain with information that this camp already has a blacksmith shop, altar, large warehouse, and equipment manufacturing plant.
They are developing fast, but compared with the system-assisted lord, they are not good enough.
If left alone, this camp may form a small town, a mixed-species camp with clear classes or even a city-state.
The captain put down the telescope in his hand, and a cruise fleet consisting of 16 airships was slowly descending from the clouds.
