Chapter 163 Knife Light
"Seriously, Tom, do you regret entering the Storm Commando?"
Tom took a look at the captain and didn't say anything. The military rules in the imperial army are strict, and if you are not careful, you will be offending. 'Be honest and be an honest person.' This practice can only make you die faster in the army.
"It's okay!" Tom said perfunctorily.
"It's okay. Do you think it's okay?" The captain pointed to the red sand flying outside the window and said angrily, "If this is fucking okay, then what is not good."
A wonderful question.
Although strict military regulations and the thought of loyalty to the divine emperor bind everyone's thoughts, this does not stop the constant resentment in everyone's hearts.
Blood sand hell is a planet with a sinister environment like hell. This planet does not seem to welcome any creatures. On the earth, the only creatures that survive tenaciously are those miners who are attracted by high-value mineral deposits.
And now, those miners have also withdrawn one after another. Now the most people on this planet are probably the soldiers squatting here.
The temperature outside is 50 degrees Celsius. It is a great torment for people just to walk out of this room and walk around the outer wall, not to mention that Tom's company of storm commandos will be stationed in this shabby place for three months. And they can't stay in the room for a long time. Every ten minutes, there must be a person walking around the outer wall. The people above call it patrols. But what can patrol with this visibility? The red gravel flying all over the sky makes the visibility extremely poor, and Tom can't even see anything five meters away. In this case, the patrol can't play any role of warning. The reason why they have to do this is that the superiors don't want to see their subordinates idle. They always subconsciously find something for their subordinates to do.
This broken land not only has an extremely poor environment, but also a very high temperature, and a lot of wind and sand. There are no entertainment occasions. What's more, there is no enemy here. Even if you want to put a gun occasionally and listen to the sound, you can't do it.
Such an environment can only be said to be terrible.
"I really don't know which big shots want to bring us here? Do you think there is an enemy here? The captain continued to say an annoyanly, "Who would care about this kind of place where birds don't shit?" Even which large cosmic mineral companies have lost interest in this planet. What else do you think there will be good here?
Yes, there is nothing in this galaxy that is more sensitive than the noses of rich large mineral companies. What planet has cherished mineral deposits? They will always know the first time, and then swarm up like predatory wolves, excavate the resources and then disperse them. If the continuous withdrawal of the miners has not stopped, it really means that the planet is worthless.
"Alas, I feel unhappy when I think of this. We are the storm commandos and the elites in the imperial defense force. We should participate in a really exciting battle like an epic on the big battlefield. We should fight with the horrible and evil enemy, instead of squatting here and doing nothing. Son. This is really terrible, Tom. Tell me something that can make me happy.
"I found two things, one that can make you happy and the other that can make me happy."
"Oh? That's good, Tom. Let's talk about what makes me happy first.
"That is, we only need to stay here for three months, and after three months, it will be the turn of other commandos to come here to eat sand."
"Indeed, for now, this is the only thing that can make me feel happy and hopeful. The God Emperor didn't give up on us!" The captain asked, "What about what makes you happy?"
"Did you not notice? The air conditioner in the duty room is broken.
Only then did the captain find that the temperature in the room had risen a lot, and the machine that had been venting cold air, allowing him to feel a trace of coolness in this terrible high temperature had stopped working.
"Why are you happy that the air conditioner is broken?"
"You will go on patrol with me later. It's too boring to do this job alone."
"Kid, you're too young," the captain walked to the air conditioner and said easily, "This thing is not really broken. It may just be tired, so just stop working for a while. It only needs a small repair, and it can resume work. You still have to go out to patrol alone later, and I will Stay in the room to blow the air conditioner. After saying that, the captain gently patted the shell of the air conditioner with his hand. Of course, the air conditioner did not respond, and then he patted it a few times, but it still had no effect. In the end, the captain flew into the air angrily, turned his legs, and kicked the air conditioner fiercely. The air conditioner swayed, and after a flash of electric sparks flashed up. Dao Qingyan.
The captain stepped back two steps and said with a regretful face, "Oh, oh, oh, it's really not good this time."
"I think," Tom said, "this time I can be sure that this thing is really broken."
"Stop talking nonsense, we're going on a patrol!"
The two put on gas masks, military coats, scarfs around their necks, and weapons before they went out. Although every time I go out, I am fully armed, I still can't avoid dust after coming back. What if I don't do this?
The two left the duty room and began to patrol the city wall. Of course, the patrol is not very accurate, because the visibility is too poor, and the two can only see the wind and sand, so the patrol is not good. To be more precise, it is actually a walk.
Since it is a walk, there should be a walking atmosphere.
So the captain opened his mouth again, and his mouth seemed to never be closed. "Tom, why do you think those people asked us to come to guard? This is obviously unreasonable. There is nothing here.
"They are from the trial court. They have the right to do so, and they don't need to explain."
"Yes, you're right. That's why I hate people in the trial court. They always sneaky and mysteriously, as if what they do is really important and confidential. I bet it's the same when they go to the toilet. Of course, it's not because of them. What is pulled out is confidential, but because the bottom is too small to be seen. Then the captain was amused by the joke he had just invented: "Hahahaha, Tom? What do you think?"
"I don't think our communication channel is confidential."
"Oh, you're so careful that those big shots don't have time to deal with us soldiers. What can they do even if they know? The political commissar is no longer here, and the company commander will not do anything to us because of these words. Well, I just want to say that when I worked with the colonel, I was much happier than now. Although it is much more dangerous than now, I live a comfortable life. It won't be boring like this. What do you think they are afraid of? Not only do we guard against those non-existent enemies, but we are also like thieves.
The garrison of the whole area is divided into two regions. There are three companies of storm assault troops guarding the three areas of the city. The three areas form a ring, firmly guarding the castle in the center of the ring, while the castle and the defense in the castle are completed by a special numbered storm commando, and the soldiers in the outer ring are Under special circumstances, you are not allowed to enter the castle. Any violation of the regulations has only a simple and direct punishment, a shooting.
Tom thought about it carefully, then turned off the communicator, took off his gas mask, and shouted in the whirling wind as he walked, "I don't know what they are doing, but I don't think what they are doing."
The captain also did so. In this strong wind, he talked with his mouth full of wind and sand. Although this would make the conversation very tiring and eat a mouthful of sand, this is the only place where they can speak at ease: "Oh? Why do you say that?
"We were on duty together in the first two weeks. As a result, you ran to the air-conditioned room to enjoy the cool. I was guarding the door alone, and a car passed by."
"Although it's not common, it shouldn't be a heinous crime to drive in, right?"
"I saw a little girl's crying face from the car window! These people caught a little girl and went in. Thinking about the handlebars that had passed during this period, they were catching people inside. It doesn't look like a serious prison here. And our firepower arrangement," Tom continued, "Half internal and half external, this is what they asked for, as if they were afraid that the things inside would escape!"
"Oh, stop it. In this weather, I'm starting to feel cold because of your words. I said, wait, wait..."
"What's the matter?"
"I seem to have seen a dark shadow just now."
"Where is it?"
The captain pointed to a direction.
Tom stared at it, but she couldn't see anything. She could only see the red sand.
"You misread it." As Tom spoke, he mobilized his body. The red alarm in his brain had begun to flash. He turned on the safety of the gun in his hand and said, "You must have read it wrong. How can you see something with this kind of visibility?"
Tom is ready to fight, because he knows that the captain will never make a mistake. Although the captain is broken, he is a veteran for the rest of his life. On the battlefield, he is an absolutely trustworthy partner and superior.
"Maybe, I've been a little old recently, and my eyes don't work well." While the captain answered, his hand had touched the dagger at his waist.
It is impossible to aim normally in this environment. If the enemy comes up, firearms will hardly play a role.
At this time, suddenly, a beautiful arc suddenly appeared. The light crossed an arc and swept across the necks of the two people.
Unexpectedly, both of them were already on guard, almost in the same posture. At the same time, Tom and the captain rolled to the ground at the same time, avoiding the flash of this deadly arc. Then the two stood up at the same time. When they stood up, the captain's dagger was already in his hand, and Tom's laser gun had been set up. On his shoulder, he aimed his heart at the enemy.
