Chapter 1244 (2/2)
But buildings other than the colonial module are not so lucky.
Numerous holes have been drilled in the farm shed of the Mars colony, and the newly built Mars ranch has been turned into ruins, and the crops and livestock inside have been eaten completely.
If the colonies were not wise enough not to put all their eggs in one basket and still keep the indoor breeding center in the colony cabin and the open-air farm on the top of the colony cabin, I am afraid that the future rations of more than 500 colonists in the colony would be a problem.
Fortunately, these devils are only interested in moving organisms. Otherwise, if the brine desalination device is damaged, it will be a big problem.As if they had discovered a new world, they would come here every day to see if there was any new prey.
Now, let alone normal work, even the normal travel of the colonial staff has become a problem. With the exception of the Marine Corps, all work involving outdoor activities was terminated.
No one knows where those bugs will come out, and no one dares to bet on whether they are there or not.
”The study of 071 was a wrong decision, and if we didn't wake those monsters from the depths of the ground, we could have been all right.” A white woman with blonde hair and blue eyes stood in front of the Marines and said excitedly, ”and now, everyone's work is affected!”
She is Jamie's colleague and a member of the future mining industry. These Marines are polite to the employees of futureman group. But orders are orders, and anyone who stands in front of them can't change that.
”If you go and explain to the headquarters, more specimens are needed in the star ring city, and we are on duty according to the orders of the headquarters.” After buttoning the last button of his exoskeleton, Zhang Hai checked the insurance on Gauss's rifle and made a gesture to the soldiers behind him, bypassing the white woman.
Zhang Hai is the captain of this Marine Corps. He is in charge of all the operations these days.
He was well aware of the recent unrest in the colonies and why.
He didn't feel very good about the insects that suddenly came out of the ground. No one knows better than him how annoying and intractable these insects are. Soldiers have been killed in their posts, and a brother is lying in the emergency room receiving limb regeneration treatment.
Maybe the only way to relieve the tension in the colony is to wait for reinforcements to arrive?
However, Zhang Hai estimated that even if the expeditionary troops arrived, most of them would be very hard.
Those bugs won't fight you head-on. They're like gulls skimming over the water. They're going to leave with one stroke, and they won't stay on the surface any more. Even if more marines land on Mars, they won't make holes. What can they do?
However, just at this time, Zhang Hai, who was about to board the infantry vehicle, saw the [mission termination] icon on the AR screen of his helmet.
It's not just that he sees the icon.
Six other Marines, who had already lined up in front of the infantry vehicles, had seen them.
”Mission cancelled? What's the matter
”I don't know...”
”Orders from the space command center.”
Just as Zhang Hai frowned and was ready to connect with the captain's room and ask Hong zewei whether or not to continue today's mission, a cry of surprise sounded from his ear.
”Wait Look at the sky! What is that
Hearing the exclamation, Zhang Hai raised his head fiercely and looked along the line of sight of his comrades in arms.
Through the transparent graphene dome, we could see only black shadows emerging from the colony in succession. Just like the meteor shower coming from the sky, it has gradually enlarged the body shape in the sight of all people's surprise.
”Reinforcements?” With a hint of surprise, someone whispered.
”Shepard, they're here at last!” A soldier said with relief.
It's reinforcements!
Zhang Hai's face also slightly appeared a trace of movement.
The transporter with 1000 Marines has finally reached Mars synchronous orbit!
Although he didn't think these people would make a big difference to the situation on Mars, even he couldn't deny that it was a great boost to colonial morale.
And so far, a pressure in his heart of the stone, is finally unloaded.
In the days to come, at least he and his men would not have to fight alone.
