#687 - Chapter 687 Silicon-based Giant Grasshopper
“Life is like a game of chess, and we are all just pawns,” Dongfang Chen said.
“You’re right, life is like a game of chess. But I don’t want the few remaining members of my clan to become sacrifices in this game,” Zhang Jue said.
“You’ll have more freedom in Hua Country; it’s quite restrictive here with me.”
“Freedom always comes with conditions. As you said, we are all just pawns, so how can there be any talk of freedom?”
“Alright, since that’s the case, I can help you make some arrangements,” Dongfang Chen nodded.
A few more or less people in Barto City is of little importance.
For him, it was just a small matter.
“Xiaolin, pay close attention to this Zhang Jue and his subordinates. Report any unusual situations to me immediately.”
“Yes, Commander.”
On the moon.
Two hours after the giant bacteriophages were eliminated, the Sirius survivors sent out another batch of creatures.
“Warning, anomaly detected in Sector 1017.”
Zhang Yuan Kui immediately received the alert.
“Teams 1 and 2, immediately converge on Sector 1017.”
“Team 1, roger.”
“Team 2, roger.”
“Whoosh~”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh~”
As soon as these newly dispatched creatures reached the ground, they began attacking the sky.
The mecha spaceship responsible for monitoring Sector 1017 was simultaneously subjected to a large number of unknown weapon attacks from the creatures. The protective shield fluctuated violently and was becoming overwhelmed.
“1017 calling Tian Sha, unknown creatures have launched a fierce attack on me. Request immediate support.”
“Tian Sha, roger. Reinforcements will arrive in 30 seconds, please hold on.”
“1017, roger.”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh~”
The bullets fired by the unknown weapons were somewhat different from traditional weapons.
These bullets didn't seem to be solid, but they weren't lasers either.
When they touched the protective shield, they turned into a kind of super-strong vibration wave, severely disrupting the stability of the shield.
Within a few seconds, a large number of unknown creatures began firing one after another. The protective shield could only absorb a limited amount of energy at a time, and it was quickly breached.
The 1017 mecha spaceship couldn't even last 30 seconds. Helplessly, it could only choose to separate.
The base remained in orbit to maintain the stability of the Starlink, while the pilot flew the mecha to the ground.
“Chirp chirp chirp~”
While flying, he used the secondary laser weapons to fire at the ground.
Unexpectedly, the lasers had no effect on these unknown creatures.
Their defenses were much higher than the giant bacteriophages.
His firing attracted the attention of these creatures, and they immediately launched a counterattack.
By the time Teams 1 and 2 arrived, the 1017 future warrior was already engaged in a full-blown brawl with them.
“1017, reinforcements have arrived, please return to the Starlink matrix point immediately,” Zhang Yuan Kui said.
“1017, roger.”
The warriors of Teams 1 and 2 already knew that laser weapons were ineffective, so they could only resort to hand-to-hand combat.
After all, they were all at the late Stage 9 strength, so even hand-to-hand combat could inflict significant damage.
Dongfang Chen immediately began analyzing this creature after they arrived on the scene.
The analysis results came out in 3 minutes.
“Commander, after analysis, this is also a silicon-based microorganism. Please name it.”
Dongfang Chen looked at the 3D image on the screen and said:
“Let’s call it Silicon-Based Giant Grasshopper.”
He was just bad at naming things. To avoid confusion, he set up a simple naming formula himself: Silicon-Based Prefix + Size + Analogous Creature.
That way, at a glance at the name, you could immediately know what kind of creature it was.
“Okay, naming successful.”
“Does this creature have any weaknesses?”
“No weaknesses have been found yet,” Xiaolin replied.
Chopping them down one by one was a bit inefficient. If there were more of them, it would be difficult to deal with.
“What type of weapon do they use?”
Dongfang Chen had never seen this kind of weapon before.
“Self-Excited Acoustic Energy Pulse Weapon,” Xiaolin replied.
“Acoustic energy pulse?” Dongfang Chen found the term a bit strange.
Judging from the name, using this weapon on the moon was somewhat unreasonable. The air on the moon is thin, and the efficiency of sound transmission is extremely low.
“Yes, an acoustic energy pulse weapon. The excitation principle of this weapon is to accelerate some heavy element molecules to extremely high speeds and form a standing wave with three to five cycles. As long as the molecules contain enough energy, they can produce great destructive power,” Xiaolin explained.
Dongfang Chen nodded.
It seemed that the technology of the Sirius survivors was still very powerful. Being able to develop such advanced creatures and weapons in the harsh environment of the moon must mean they have a profound foundation.
Weapons actually don't have high or low status; if they can achieve good results, they are good weapons. Just like this sonic weapon, Dongfang Chen had no desire to develop it just by looking at the name.
But this weapon had an unimaginable effect when dealing with energy shields.
After all, to put it bluntly, an energy shield can also be said to be a kind of acoustic energy defense weapon.
