C22 Mission Beginning

The shocked Lu Gang quickly climbed up the hill on the opposite side and looked down at the underground fortress with lingering fear in his heart. “If I fall down, this mission will be a failure?”

The fifth brother, Xiao Xiao, who was stepping on the Saber Heavenly Shuttle, flew over and looked at Lu Gang and said, “Old Six, you are too heavy. You should lose weight!”

Lu Gang touched his mecha’s head with his hand and said in a simple voice, “I have more weapons with me, hehe!”

The five members of the Knight Squad successfully snuck into the laboratory. The laboratory occupied a large area of about ten square kilometers, and it was surrounded by tall walls.

Although the tall walls were more than five meters high, they could not stop the Knight Squad from entering. The few people who were skilled in various ways hid in the walls one after another.

The high wall was mainly made up of four parts. In front of it was a large field, and on the right side of the field was a dormitory. In the middle of the field was a circular laboratory, and on the left side of the field was a relatively wide and open platform. There were three walls surrounding it, and a huge dome with a semicircular roof was installed on top of it.

There were two circular platforms with a diameter of 20 meters in the building. One of the circular platforms was already completed, and there were eight metal pillars erected around it. The other circular platform was still being built, and six metal pillars had already been set up. A person in a white coat was seen moving them.

When he saw the two platforms, Kerry exclaimed, "This is a super long-distance teleportation array! This is a great harvest, especially the one that hasn't been built yet. There must be some construction data in the machine next to it. This is great! If we can get those data, then our trip will be worth it!"

"Damn it! There is actually a large team of light mechs in the laboratory! The mission today will probably change." The boss reported after sneaking in.

"Reporting to the commander, we have discovered two middle-sized mechs from two combat teams. The number is 10. They should be soldiers of the Yboif Empire." Third Brother exclaimed.

"This is bad. How can there be middle-sized mechs here? It seems like there is definitely a big secret here. Otherwise, the Yboif Empire would not have spent so much money to build a small super long-distance teleportation array. Lu Gang, sneak into the middle of the laboratory and bring all the data back to the mother ship base. Don't let the enemy find out in five minutes!" Kerry said anxiously.

"The super long-distance teleportation array is very important to the Empire. It might even allow our country to enter the level four civilization in advance. We must get the data here. Even if we die in battle, we will not hesitate!" This was the first time Kerry gave out a death order.

"Yes, commander. As long as the war spirit is not extinguished, the Empire will always be prosperous!" Everyone replied solemnly.

These words were shouted by the founding emperor of the Empire during the founding of the country.

These words had been passed down in the army until now. When the soldiers and generals shouted that the war spirit was not extinguished and that the Empire would always be prosperous, it meant that they had made up their minds to fight to the death. All of this would be recorded and sent back to the Empire's data center.

This was why the soldiers called it the oath of Mingzhi.

The solemn atmosphere made Lu Gang even more focused. It was impossible for him to sneak into the middle of the experimental building in a thick suit of armor.

Lu Gang thought for a moment before opening the door of the suit. He jumped out of the suit and put away the suit in his storage bracelet.

Lu Gang, who was only wearing a protective suit and a tactical helmet, was as agile as a monkey.

"Why didn't I think of that when I was flying over the hill just now?" Lu Gang regretted his slow reaction.

The laboratory was hollow inside. The laboratory was surrounded by a circular corridor, and in the middle was a huge circular hole. Above the hole was a bridge made of steel. There were patrolling soldiers in white radiation protection suits on the bridge. There weren't many of them, but there were at least 20 of them.

Lu Gang's sneak was very smooth. The laboratory that was surrounded by layers of defense gave the guards a strong sense of security. The patrolling soldiers were very casual.

Lu Gang knew that his chance had come. With the help of the protective suit, he successfully hid himself in a ventilation duct with a good view. He could see everything in the experimental building from his position.

The hole was very deep. From Lu Gang's angle, he could only see a part of the bottom of the hole. He could see a few people with the appearance of scientists operating some equipment.

The sound of the machine was very loud, and it seemed like it was extracting something from the ground.

Lu Gang tried his best to keep his aura under control as he silently waited for the supper squad to launch their attack.

When the time was up, the joint forces outside launched their attack. The sound of explosions rang out, and Lu Gang pulled out his military knife with both hands. Just as he was about to take action, he heard Kerry's deliberately lowered voice, "Everyone, don't move recklessly. Observe the situation of the surrounding soldiers. If nothing unexpected happens, the Mech Unit will split up to assist. Wait for my order before you act!"

Hearing this, Lu Gang retracted his head and continued to observe his surroundings.

As expected, the sound of gunfire made the soldiers in the laboratory nervous. The soldiers began to gather at the door. A person who looked like an officer shouted, "Don't be foolish inside. Set up the lights at the door. Bring the cannons over!"

"This is the official language of the Human Alliance of Interstellar. These people are not Kaka. They are from the Yboif Empire!" Lu Gang thought to himself.

As expected of a tactical genius. Lu Gang heard the sound of the Mechs running out of the laboratory and the shouts of soldiers at the gate.

"Boss, Ol' Three, think of a way to kill or delay all the Mechs. Ol' Four, follow me to cover fire. Ol' Six, after collecting the information in the laboratory, return to the team immediately. Ol' Two, quickly get close to me and act!"

Lu Gang took out four grenades and counted to two before he threw them at the twenty guards at the door.

Without waiting for the results of the battle, he jumped down the pit with a military knife in each hand.

The interior of the pit was simple. A few white-coat men were operating the machine.

The huge machine was like a water pump, sucking out some red substance from a pipe underground. It was filtered by circles of filters and finally compressed by the huge machine into energy crystals.

Looking at the pile of red crystals beside him, Lu Gang could feel the enormous energy contained in the crystals. The red crystals were much more powerful than the S-class energy blocks he had used.

'Could this be the enemy's SS-class energy generator?' Lu Gang thought.

The sound of grenades exploding came from behind him. Lu Gang landed on the ground in front of the frightened eyes of the white-coat men. Blood immediately appeared on the necks of the few white-coat men.

Lu Gang quickly observed his surroundings and saw that there was still a door on the left side of the pit. There were no more living people around the bottom of the pit.

According to the method that Ol' Fifth taught him, he took out a small machine and connected it to an empty slot on the control panel.

This small machine was called the Omnipotent Reading Machine. It could automatically read and store information. When it was brought back to the base, it would be uploaded to the data center of the mother ship.

After finishing his task, Lu Gang quickly rushed to the left door. Inside the door were many red and dark purple energy blocks that were even denser in energy.

A guy wearing a protective suit and a space helmet was fiddling with a device with a skull on it. Without saying a word, Lu Gang rushed forward and kicked the guy to the ground. The device also rolled to the side of his feet.

"Don't kill me. I'm the Yboif Empire's energy expert, Masques. I'm willing to surrender! These energy blocks are yours." The guy shouted loudly and knelt on the ground.

Lu Gang glanced around and found that Masques was wearing something familiar on his wrist.

'This Masques actually has a storage bracelet on him?! It seems like he isn't simple!' Lu Gang thought to himself.

The sound of an explosion could be heard from the ground. Lu Gang knew from the communication device that his teammates were fighting with the enemy. The situation was urgent.

He grabbed Masques' storage bracelet.

He put the energy blocks on the ground and Masques into his storage bracelet.

The Universal Reading Machine's progress bar was at 75%. Lu Gang, who was in a hurry, took a few energy blocks beside the machine.

Hearing the sounds of weapons outside, Lu Gang took out his mechanical suit and put it on in a hurry. He stared at the reading machine anxiously. 80%, 81%, 82...

Looking at the numbers that were crawling like snails, Lu Gang was anxious.

Finally, the reading reached 100%.

Lu Gang pulled out the reading machine and put it into his storage bracelet. Then, he raised his leg and leaped towards the top of the cave.

Kerry and Camel used their fastest speed to rush towards the unfinished teleportation machine. The ten or so light mechas around them fired at them at the same time. The large laser guns fired their light bullets at their energy shields.

Camel was firing at full power. As he ran, he spread his arms wide. The laser guns in his arms fired at the enemies on both sides at the same time.

The small laser gun on his head also kept firing white light bullets. He didn't forget to use the guided missile on his chest to attack the enemies that were moving.

The violent mechas were really not for show. Their powerful firepower far exceeded the total firepower of more than ten light mechas. They controlled the entire battlefield in an instant. They were incomparably domineering.

Kerry raised his hand and threw out eighteen Saber Heavenly Shuttle. One of them carried him and flew quickly. The others flew towards the people in white protective suits.

In a few breaths, they arrived at the machine beside the round platform. They took out a small machine that was as small as Lu Gang's and connected it to the control panel.

The large number of light mechas that had rushed over to the entrance after hearing the news were stopped by the boss and the third brother.

The boss and the third brother turned into two huge black leopards and rushed into the crowd of mechas. The third brother pounced on them with his claws and instantly dismembered a few mechas.

The boss also rushed into the group of mechas. His left claw and right sword, his left claw and right sword, and his right claw and left sword. He opened his mouth and shot out a huge beam of light, destroying four or five mechas in a row.

The two brothers' fierce charge made the group of mechas stop and focus on dealing with the two of them.

After the battle began, the second brother no longer cared about exposing his body. Instead, he rushed towards the hill and used his fastest speed to pass through the hill.

The large-scale anti-tank cannon raised its hand and fired. The heads of the mechas that were hit exploded with flames and fell to the ground.

When the slightly slower Yboif's medium-sized Mecha Team arrived, almost half of the Yboif's light Mecha Team was wiped out.

The captain of the medium-sized Yboif mechas did not panic and quickly ordered the remaining members to split up and fight. The captain himself led two of his members to the laboratory in the middle.

The defensive and offensive power of the medium-sized Yboif mechas far exceeded that of the light ones. Ordinary firepower would not be able to deal a fatal blow to the medium-sized Yboif mechas.

The boss, the second brother, and the third brother could only stall the four mechas. The remaining three medium-sized Yboif mechas quickly rushed towards the teleportation center.

The second brother arrived late and was at a relatively distant distance. This gave him the space to execute the assassination.

The anti-tank cannon in his hand continuously fired at the medium-sized Yboif mechas. Every time it fired, it would bring up a flash of fire, causing the enemy to be in a sorry state.

With the second brother's cover, the boss and the third brother once again turned into leopards and attacked. They quickly gained the initiative of the battlefield.
