Sky-cracking Rider
Chapter 862 - 862: Section 856 - Landing on Alien Star

S-Class supernatural power user Yan Ling, with her own strength, twisted the rules of heaven and earth within Blue Star's atmosphere, sealing off almost all of the "wormhole clouds," leaving only one above Midway Island.

Not only do the extraterrestrial races like "Sagali" have means of interstellar travel, but Blue Star civilization also possesses similar technology. A temporary passage is enough to further establish its own connection method, without completely relying on the uncontrollable space-time channel of "wormhole clouds."

Now this temporary passage has been proactively brought by the Parasitic Species, and the daring Blue Star humans began to reverse the strategy against the enemies.

Yan Ling then used her psi skill to restrict the powerful parasitic species from approaching Blue Star. The Lagrangian Points acted as a clever restriction condition, easily influenced by the gravitational force of the constant star, making it difficult to approach Blue Star, thereby safeguarding the homeland's security.

Although parasitic species of royal breed and below could still invade, it wouldn't be as challenging as dealing with the divine breed.

Having done all these for Blue Star human civilization, Yan Ling aged from around ten years old to over sixty in an instant, losing nearly sixty years of life. She didn't continue to act together with Chen Fei and others but chose to quietly leave.

S-Class supernatural power users don't retire but silently wait for the next, perhaps the last opportunity in their life to unleash their psi skill.

Louis Landon, the president of Louis Industrial Company, left shortly after meeting Chen Fei near Midway Island, making as many preparations as possible for the worst moment.

The various preparations on Midway Island were busy but orderly, never stopping.

Fortunately, there was an existing island to rely on, otherwise establishing a base specifically targeting the "wormhole clouds" would require much more effort.

Within just a dozen days, Blue Star humans finally assembled a mighty expeditionary force, ready to reverse through the "wormhole cloud" above Midway Island and try to establish a stable forward base on the other side.

To achieve this crucial tactical purpose, sovereigns jointly prepared nearly a hundred large transport airships, over one hundred thousand combat mechs, and various light and heavy combat equipment.

In the mech factories of various sovereigns, a large number of combat mechs were still being mass-produced continuously, waging war of attrition against the monster waves bred by the parasitic species. Blue Star civilization, which possessed industrial technology, didn't show any weakness.

"Code: 'Extraterrestrial Normandy', countdown 15 minutes to prepare."

The communications officer at the command center sent a notification to Chen Fei. Two airship battle groups would also be ready to support the combat operations but were not allowed to enter the "wormhole cloud."

To be precise, in the first stage, only combat mechs would enter the "wormhole cloud" to establish a safe landing zone.

Only after firmly stabilizing the foothold would humans be dispatched.

Long alarms echoed on Midway Island, and personnel began to evacuate.

Executing the "Extraterrestrial Normandy" operation was a purely AI army, from transport airship pilots to combat mechs, all were high-level derivatives of "Cybertrom," granted the maximum freedom of action permissions.

This was the first large-scale armament of an AI army by Blue Star humans since the AI "Adam". This combat force was enough to forcibly flatten any small sovereign ranked 50 and beyond on Blue Star, and through reversing the "wormhole cloud," establishing the first foothold on the life planet on the other side held strategic significance akin to the Normandy landing in the Second World War of Blue Star.

"It's a pity not to accept 'Adam,' it would reduce actual combat effectiveness by at least 30%."

Miyoshi Monk casually brewed tea around the stove, showing off his tea-making skills.

Tea was good, artistry was elegant, but one of the tea drinkers was not in the mood.

"Oh! A new 'Fighter Bug' has appeared, a twin-engine version, with improved aerodynamics, it must be a new result of the 'Seed Nest,' 'Adam' quickly record it, remember to capture its flight data."

The "wormhole cloud" that persisted in spewing out large amounts of biology again produced a new kind. Its speed was faster, and upon emerging, the sonic boom sound was incessant, startling Chen Fei who was guarding the nearby airspace, perhaps with surprise or delight.

It was predictable that the parasitic species wouldn't just wait passively for Blue Star humans to strike, and now they began to make moves.

Right after the words were spoken, a line of subtitles appeared on the screen.

Adam: Recorded, waiting for biological sample data.

Data collected during this time would benefit targeted attacks by intelligent missiles. The era of tail chase attacks was eliminated fifty years ago; now is the era of collaborative encirclement interception. Otherwise, it wouldn't justify the "intelligence" feature of missiles.

Through the battlefield data link, AI "Adam" could freely read or download intelligence shared by the command center.

Because it was organized by the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee, the intelligence authority was extremely high, giving Chen Fei and "Adam" easy access to confidential information not known to the public outside.

Many scientists of various sovereigns on Blue Star participated, including universities studying these extraterrestrial life forms, generating numerous research results like a burst, creating an academic feast while providing crucial intelligence for establishing the interception system for "wormhole clouds."

"This batch of second-generation evolution types cannot change the situation; they cannot stop the 'Extraterrestrial Normandy' operation at all. The 'wormhole cloud' has been completely sealed, not even a fly can escape."

As Miyoshi Xuesen said, the newly emerged "Fighter Bug-02" faced overwhelming focus fire immediately upon appearance.

Before they could fly a thousand meters out, ground and aerial interception fire crashed them mid-air, turning into fireworks.

War was like this, the front was hot and intense, while the rear maintained a monotonic daily routine.

If even the rear was so busy that it was chaotic, it probably meant defeat was close.

A massive blue-white beam shot from the ground into the sky, piercing into the slowly rotating black vortex cloud. Those twin-engine "Fighter Bugs-02" hit directly evaporated into ashes; even those grazed by the leftover power met dire fates, exploding into clusters of fireballs.

Though evolved, the high-volatility flammable fluid remained irreplaceable, becoming the fatal weakness of these fighter bugs.

The blue-white beam was a high-power particle beam, instantaneously clearing the shuttle channel within the "wormhole cloud," followed by a series of light dots rising, trailing streaks of flow light.

"Thermobaric bombs, copying my work!"

Chen Fei raised his hand, shading his eyebrow to view; the movement was totally redundant.

AI "Adam" automatically loaded the long-focus image for him; the large-caliber railgun was launching thermobaric bombs.

Those continuous light dots entering the "wormhole cloud" were high-light signals of tonnage thermobaric bombs, serving an active tracer effect. Each thermobaric bomb had rocket boosters for directional changes.

A single thermobaric bomb's power could flatten at least three football fields on Blue Star's surface.

Such quantity was sufficient to turn a small town into a lava hell.

Similarly, it could clear a safe zone where monsters couldn't tread temporarily. The flattening effect of thermobaric bombs on the ground was impeccable, with firm foundations formed efficiently.

Although powerful, thermobaric bombs couldn't shake the stability of the "wormhole cloud."

However, weapons like Tsar Plus level would be risky, potentially causing the intended "wormhole cloud" to dissipate, thus proving an overdone error.

Adam: Drone swarm entering the "wormhole cloud"

AI "Adam" continuously monitored the progress of the "Extraterrestrial Normandy" operation, currently in the initial warm-up phase; planning first without moving resources.

During the thermobaric bombs' residual clearing pause, nearly a thousand reconnaissance drones tried establishing a continuous communication relay within the "wormhole cloud." With at least three drones safely present, communication channels could be maintained.

Simultaneously, missiles dragging optical cables also launched along with the drones, with signal attenuation threshold reaching 200 kilometers, easily connecting to the other side of the "wormhole cloud."

Physical communication media have stability and data load superior to interference-prone wireless signals.

Minutes later, the other side of the "wormhole cloud" transmitted images back.

The sky and ground were dark red, constantly swept by strong winds, showing the lingering impact of thermobaric bombs.

The atmosphere's 40% oxygen ratio doubled the explosive power.

Within a five-kilometer radius, the average temperature exceeded 100 degrees Celsius; near the "wormhole cloud," the temperature hit over 300 degrees Celsius. Without rugged military design, those communication and reconnaissance drones wouldn't hold long.

A thousand meters beyond the "wormhole cloud," countless monster carcasses piled up like a burning ringed mountain. The "fire ring" was scorched earth, even the ground lowered a foot, with radial circular marks visible everywhere.

One could imagine how terrorizing the thermobaric bombs' explosion power was in such an environment, almost comparable to small tactical nuclear weapons.

Two thousand meters above ground, the sky swirled with "Fighter Bug-02" swarms not daring to lower altitude near the "wormhole cloud."

Rising temperatures and shock waves prevented them from approaching the ground; otherwise, their highly flammable body fluids would self-explode. Post-clearing thermobaric bombs created an oxygen-depleted environment, disabling these creatures' movement, as their high-energy fluids required intense oxidation to produce thrust like jet propulsion.

Multiple thermobaric bombs concentrated fire on the ground, with returned images showing black smoking biological remains.

Another tonnage thermobaric bomb exploded at about three thousand meters above the alien planet ground's "wormhole cloud." The shock wave, wrapped in dazzling blue-white flame, immediately wiped out the twin-engine biological entities.

The fierce Blue Star humans, to some degree, were not more benevolent than the parasitic species.
