    Chapter 394 Machine Mine

    In order to allow these wild warriors to adapt to this world faster, Orr Drogo specially assigned a wrist-mounted intelligent brain to each battle group.  A complete database is input into each smart brain, so that when they encounter something they don't recognize, they can at least look it up as a reference.

    "It's a space mine." His deputy quickly answered.

    "Space mine? What is that?" Zorn looked at his deputy dissatisfied.  This answer didn't help him at all. He had never even heard of the word.  His deputy was young, inexperienced but quick-thinking.  This is also the reason for entrusting the management of the brain to him.  The deputy scratched his head in embarrassment, waved the Zhinao in his hand and said, "It says here that the thing will explode if it touches it. It is usually used for guarding."

    "For guarding?" Zorn looked at the minelayers in the distance that were still busy spitting out mines. "Then what are they doing? Is there anything nearby that needs guarding?"

    "Maybe they are afraid that we will rush over." One of Zorn's personal guards said with a loud laugh.  His words prompted a series of even louder laughs.

    Zorn grinned, "Maybe. Anyway, let's just wait and see what happens, and then we'll take care of them when the reinforcements arrive."

    Yi Lexiang felt the aftermath of a mental ripple in the space, which was very slight. He estimated that it was the barbarians on the opposite side who were communicating in some way that he didn't quite understand.  The biggest possibility is spiritual dialogue.  Even in the world of mental mutants, only a very few people can master this method.  Their ability to communicate smoothly with each other is most likely due to the magical fire armor on their bodies.

    The mine-laying ships were still pouring out space mines tirelessly. Before setting off, Yi Lexiang ordered the logistics department to install more than three times the number of mines on each mine-laying ship. He had already had a hunch that these things would be of great use.  At the moment, it seems that is indeed the case.  It took a full quarter of an hour for the minelayer to finish its minelaying work and slowly retract into the formation.  Yi Lexiang walked to the induction cabin, opened the door and sat in.  The moment he put on the helmet, his sight seemed to cross the starry sky. Countless red dots circled around him, and the wild warriors wearing fiery red armor became clearer.  Under his operation, countless mines slowly moved in the starry sky, drifting towards the Savage.  The starships of the Starfire Fleet also started up, and as the space mines approached, they kept a constant distance.

    Zorn was stunned for a moment, "Theseoh, space mines, can they still move?" he asked.

    The young deputy also seemed confused, "It says they will only activate when an object approaches them."

    "Hal, you take two teams up. Let's see what those things can do." Zorn ordered.

    "Okay," Hal, a tall and muscular middle-aged man, shouted loudly and rushed forward, followed by two teams of wild warriors.  Zorn squinted his eyes and stared closely at his subordinates who were gradually retreating. He always felt that what he encountered today was a bit strange.  Those ink-black starships had fought against them, and they must have known their capabilities. They must have had their intentions in releasing so many hedgehog balls now.

    "How far is the nearest war group to us?" he turned to ask his second-in-command.

    "It's about an hour's journey. However, I think Debis and his scouts should have returned to Gamma Planet. That is our base camp and there are ten battle groups stationed there. It is unlikely that he will go to Zor and the others."

    Zorn was stunned for a moment. Yes, Zor only has one battle group in his hands, and like them, he is responsible for a vast star field. If he goes to find them, they will not be able to put down their patrols to support them.  "How long does it take to get from Gamma Star?"

    The deputy lowered his head and calculated silently for a while, then replied: "A little more than two hours, but including the time it takes for Debis to go back, it will take about four hours."

    "Zorn nodded silently, four hoursif something unexpected happened, it would be too late anyway.  Damn it, didn't the emissary say that the secular people wouldn't send too many fleets before they figured out their details?  But now a large fleet appeared in front of him, and he lost twenty men before the battle started.

    What makes him even more uneasy is how the opponent used to eliminate his two scout teams?  Logically speaking, those bulky starships could not surround and annihilate his scout team.  His eyes moved towards Hal, who was gradually approaching the machine mine.

    Hal slowly stabilized his figure. His rough appearance does not mean that he is a reckless person.  On the contrary, he was notoriously cautious, otherwise Zorn would not have sent him to lead the team.  From a distance, these mines are densely clustered together, but once you get close to a certain distance, you will find that there is actually a large distance between these hedgehog-like balls.  It was big enough for the wild warriors to move freely through it, but Hal didn't.He recklessly let the soldiers rush forward, but stopped not far from the mine array.  He raised his sword and swung it, and a fiery red sword shadow shot out of the air and hit one of them.

    The machine mine was detonated immediately and fragments were scattered everywhere.  Hal looked at the approaching mines in confusion. He heard the conversation between the deputy of the battle group and Zorn. If those mines were really as described in Zhi's mind, the explosion just now should have set off a series of explosions.  But in fact, only the mine he hit exploded.  Others seemed fine.

    "Hal," a wild warrior said, "I just felt like that thing jumped forward."

    "Pounce forward?" Hal repeated his subordinate's words. He once again raised his sword and aimed at a mine behind him and swung his sword.  Another mine was detonated, but it was not the one he was aiming at, but the one in front.  This time he clearly saw that the mine was indeed protruding forward, facing his sword shadow.  The explosion point is far away from the mine array, so naturally no other mines will be detonated.  "Damn, these things are controlled by someone." Hal shouted angrily, "Everyone, stay back."

    However, it seems a little late.  The mechanical mines that were moving slowly suddenly began to accelerate and rushed towards them.  "Don't let them get close!" Hal shouted loudly, waving the long sword in his hand continuously, and the sword shadow shot out destroying several roaring mines in succession.  The soldiers followed suit, waving their swords repeatedly, and for a while there was the sound and light of mine explosions everywhere.

    But there were too many machine mines rushing towards them, and they seemed to be living creatures, knowing how to avoid the overflowing sword shadows.  There were even hundreds of mines going around their backs from left, right, up and down, seemingly trying to surround and annihilate them.  One after another, organic thunder rushed over Jian Ying's gun and rushed to their side, and then detonated automatically.  If it weren't for the protection of the "enchantment", many of them would have been killed.  Even with the protection of "enchantment", the situation they faced was definitely not safe. Every explosion consumed the energy in the fire armor. As the mines got closer and closer, the energy consumed by the explosion shock wave also increased.  It¡¯s getting more and more dramatic.

    "Zorn's face was gloomy. He stopped the commotion of his men, hesitating in his heart.  The two hundred wild warriors brought up by Hal were now surrounded by those space machine thunders, and their bodies were completely enveloped in the explosion flames.  More mines were passing them and rushing towards the formation in a mighty manner.  Facing a situation he had never faced before, Zorn was at a loss for a moment.  If it is not a mine, but a starship or a fighter plane, he can order the warriors of the Chapter to rush forward and fight to the death with the sword in their hands.  But that's just a mechanical mine. Are they putting their lives in a desperate fight with a lifeless mine?  That is simply ridiculous, such a sacrifice is completely meaningless.

    "Everyone, disperse!" Zorn ordered coldly, "Group of ten, target the enemy's starship. Avoid the enemy's mine array."

    "What should Hal and the others do?" a soldier asked anxiously.

    "As long as the starships controlling those mines are destroyed, Hal and the others will be fine." Zorn glanced at Hal, who was struggling to hold on in the firelight, and said, "Everyone, please move quickly. As soon as Hal and the others are out of danger,  , retreat immediately. If we guerrilla with them, they won't be able to catch up with us." Zorn replied.  However, he knew in his heart that Hal and the others were probably in danger.  They had no idea which starship controlled these mines, so they could only rely on luck.  And those black starships probably won't let them attack freely.  This will be a tough fight.  Zorn thought to himself.

    Zorn led two hundred men to avoid the dense mines and passed by the edge.  Dozens of mines rushed toward them, and he easily destroyed them with a swing of his sword.  Those machine mines shook their bodies awkwardly, as if they had lost their previous spirituality.  He was overjoyed. Just as he expected, no matter how the enemy controlled the mine, there was a range limit.  "Let everyone take the side road!" Zorn ordered while waving his sword.

    "Yes!" The ordering soldier who followed him responded, the red halo surrounding his body flashing rapidly.  Mental dialogue is only useful when they are close to each other. In the vast space, they use the "enchantment" to flash to send messages to each other.

    The wild warriors attacking from all directions immediately shot out in all directions like fireworks. As expected, those wandering space mines no longer had the power they had before, and could not even capture the silhouettes of the wild warriors passing by them.  With other people's experiments, more wild warriors rushed towards the loosening enemy formation close to the edge of the mine array.  The rushing red light was like a shower of meteors streaking across the sky, bright and dazzling.  The enemy's advancing star formation stopped and stayed where it was, as if it didn't know how to respond.

    Although there are many enemy starships, they only occupy a small star field in the vast starry sky.  Although the number of enemy starships is large, they only occupy a small area in the vast starry sky.A star field.  At this moment, they are gathered together like animals waiting to be slaughtered in a panic.  A cold murderous intention flashed in Zorn's eyes. The dense array of mines was rapidly chasing them, giving up and continuing to besiege Hal.  However, when the thunder dispersed, only less than a hundred of the two hundred warriors remained.  Zorn sneered, was this a desperate struggle?  As long as they rushed into the clustered starship formation, he didn't know what use those mines had.  He raised his sword high and let out a shrill whistle. The time to kill has come!
