Chapter 634: Psychic Forces
Chapter 627 – Spiritual Energy Troops
The tide of zombies alone would not be much of a threat to the Star Realm Army, with heavy artillery, machine guns, and gradually perfected fortifications, even if they ran into millions of zombies, it would only be a matter of time before they were resolved, unless these zombies ran one by one like sprinting champions.
Unfortunately, after being parasitized by plants, although the zombie’s flesh and blood is still alive, but the body that has lost too much material has become fragile, which is also the reason why the brainless zombies can only move slowly.
But the body of the brainless zombie is nothing more than a flowerpot, when broken, but let the parasitic plant break free, just parasitic dandelions and flesh and blood roots, let the Star World Army pay a small price.
In the rear of the Star World Army, a steel fortress guarded by many machine gun bunkers was busy.
The command center with the highest technological content of the Star World Army is composed of several special vehicles that can be deformed and combined, with their own independent energy and intelligence systems, greatly improving the efficiency of the command, but also after completing the splicing of a war fortress, with a strong battlefield survivability.
At this moment in the command center, the casualty reports and ammunition consumption of the front line are constantly reported, but the general in charge of commanding has no interest in even taking a look, his order to the subordinate officers is to report casualties of more than 10,000 once, the degree of concern is not as high as the ammunition reserves.
Cold-blooded is the best praise for a general, mercy does not palm soldiers is not just a simple sentence, in fact, the real war is a math problem, the front line is subtraction, the rear is addition, when the addition can not catch up with the subtraction, is the war to stop or failure.
All the general has to do is to control the consumption within a certain range, can be sacrificed, but there must be enough value, so mercy or something is the biggest mistake.
Moreover, compared to others, this general was more aware of the positioning of the Star Realm Army, it didn’t matter how many people died, what mattered was that the empire’s orders had to be carried out, the emperor’s will had to be implemented, and all the sacrifices during that time were worth it.
Under the general’s cold command, a team of Star Realm troops with cheap weapons trained for only one year were filled into the meat grinder like industrial butter, constantly lubricating the gears of the war machine, using blood and flesh as the power and guns as the spears, constantly destroying those plant parasites.
The war continued, and when the first line of defense had more than five layers of dead and wounded, the call for retreat was allowed to sound.
But the general knew that this was only treating the symptoms, how could the power of the ancient gods be purified in such a ridiculous way, it would only allow the power of the ancient gods to be unleashed over them until they were completely devoured.
When the soldiers retreated, the first direction was filled with mindless zombies in a very short period of time, and a large number of parasitic roots began to climb towards the back, because the number was too large, the dense layers and layers of parasitic roots were entangled with each other and crawling around, so that one look would be unforgettable for the rest of their lives, and would cause goosebumps to rise straight up all over their bodies.
But the pre-laid bombs and incendiary bombs turned this place into an incinerator, the flesh of the zombies became crispy and cracked under the high temperature, the fat also turned into grease and seeped out, and the parasitic plants twisted and convulsed in the flesh and blood to break free, making the corpses look like ripe red hairy dandies.
The recruits who saw this scene threw up in their mouths, but for the Star Realm troops who had just withdrawn from the first line and had gotten rid of the title of recruits there was nothing but pain, and they couldn’t wait to pour a bucket of oil on it themselves.
Still alive soldiers withdrew with celebration from the reserved passage to the rear of the position, where they had to undergo a rigorous inspection to see if they had been parasitized, and then gained precious time to recuperate, and then it was time to eat and sleep to replenish their ammo, and wait for a new round of rounds.
Because after inspection, many comrades were parasitized, and those who were parasitized in the head could only be sent on their way with a single round of ammunition.
The body was parasitized, the limbs were fine, and after amputation they might be able to survive, and those whose torsos were parasitized could only be sent on their way with a single shot.
Similar scenes are not uncommon, which makes the soldiers who just walked off the battlefield full of anger. Some of the soldiers lost their guts, because only when they actually faced these monsters did they realize how great that invisible pressure was.
Unfortunately, there was no way back for them, either they would die in battle and look forward to being able to enter the divine Kingdom described in the Holy Canon, or they would be shot by the military police for the crime of desertion, so they didn’t really have a choice, from the moment they became a Star Realm Army, their fate was doomed.
“Lord General, through psychic energy we have sensed that the contamination from the power of the Ancient Gods is worsening, if we don’t intervene, within three to five days the nearby plants will turn into new parasitic organisms, and within five to ten days the mortal soldiers will undergo aberrations, is it time to open up a psychic energy storm to remove it.” A psychic with a psychic external organ device stood in front of the general and looked at the other party with eyes that radiated psychic energy and said calmly, with an attitude that was not at all like he was facing his charge.
“Are the psychic forces ready? This is your first battle, carrying the Empire’s trust and expectations of you.” For the other party’s attitude, the general did not care, the psychic force is extremely special, each one is carefully selected psychic talent possessor, and receive a large number of professional training and carefully transformed, its value is not ordinary soldiers can be compared to, perhaps only the Thunder close guards such a super ace can be overridden above.
“When you embrace psychic energy, only then can you understand how great it is.” The psychic energy people said to the general with deep meaning, because only they knew that psychic energy was the embodiment of the emperor’s will.
Returning to the Spiritual Energy Unit with his orders, a tower of Spiritual Energy from the Imperial Research Center had been erected here.
The psychic energy tower wasn’t that tall, only thirty meters, but the complex piping and construction made the machine look unknown, at this moment, the members of the psychic energy troop were plugging the piping connecting to the psychic energy tower into the sockets of the external psychic energy organs at the back of their heads.
With a click, just after completing the connection, uncontrolled psychic energy gushed out from the psychic’s five senses, fortunately, the external psychic organ that had been continuously improved had more advanced functions, and the inhibition program was activated, while the connected pipes guided the psychic energy that had become violent into the psychic tower at the same time.
This was the function of the psychic energy tower, in addition to enhancing the psychic energy perception of the psychic energy practitioner, it could also store and channel the raging psychic energy, transforming it into a psychic energy storm that cleared all alien energies within its range, including the power of the ancient gods.
However, this was an experimental model of psychic energy tower, how useful it could be and whether it was dangerous or not, these were not guaranteed by anyone, so it was equipped to the Star Realm Army for testing.
“What is the psychic energy reserve value of the psychic energy tower reached?” The psychic energy commander who returned from where the general was, asked in a slightly hurried tone to the psychic energy mechanic who was responsible for maneuvering the machine.
“It has reached thirteen percent, and as the number of linked psychic energy users continues to increase, the psychic energy reserve will rise faster and faster.” Because it was an experimental model, many of its functions were not perfected, so the mechanic had to constantly make adjustments according to the situation, not daring to rely on rudimentary programs at all, or else exploding on the spot would be light.
“The upper limit value for the first test is adjusted at fifty percent, then gradually increase it, peaking at ninety percent, reserving some leeway.” The commander of the psychic force cautiously said to the mechanic.
Although the Spiritual Energy Tower had already reserved some leeway when it set the upper limit, but with Spiritual Energy at stake, no amount of caution was too much.
Once something went wrong, not only the Spiritual Energy Troops, but the 100,000 Star Realm Army probably wouldn’t be able to survive a few of them.
