บท 65: Chapter 65: Solo Killing the Tank Beetle, Witness My Might!
The Tank Beetle is known as the "heavy tank" among the Zerg forces.
An adult Tank Beetle measures over twenty meters in length and nearly ten meters in height. It resembles a dung beetle, but as large as a whale! Its massive body, tough exoskeleton, incredible burrowing ability, and highly corrosive fluid capable of melting space alloys make it the deadliest Arachnis species and the bane of infantry.
"Damn it!"
"We need to take it down as quickly as possible!"
The appearance of the Tank Beetle has sent Buck into a frenzy, and his expression under the skull helmet twists in anger.
The Tank Beetle has its back turned to the transport ship, making its first target the defense personnel who are still clearing out the soldiers and haven't boarded yet. There are fifteen guards from the research center and his own ten team members.
The transport ship can take off now, but Buck doesn't want to abandon his team members. However, if they can't eliminate the Tank Beetle quickly...
As the mission commander, he has no choice!
"Damn it!"
Zhou Yuan curses inwardly, feeling a bit of regret deep down.
Rescue missions are different from combat missions; they require speed and efficiency. So, the personnel from the armory didn't bring grenade launchers. The explosives they have are tactical nukes, mixed explosives, and hand grenades. Zhou Yuan has already used up all the mixed explosives they brought.
All that's left are tactical nukes and hand grenades, one with excessive power and the other too weak. They're now in an awkward situation.
"Wait a minute!"
"Who said hand grenades can't kill a Tank Beetle?"
As Zhou Yuan contemplates, a scene suddenly flashes in his mind.
"Guys, cover me! I have a way to take it down!"
Zhou Yuan shouts to Storm and Salvage Station beside him, then rushes towards the entrance of the research center's bunker.
"What is he planning?"
"No time for questions! Cover him with firepower!"
Storm and Salvage Station quickly put away the explosive crates on the ground and join their teammates in attacking the Tank Beetle.
The exoskeleton of the Tank Beetle is thick, but under the concentrated fire from so many people, it's riddled with bullet holes. However, its massive size means these wounds are nothing more than mosquito bites.
"Hiss!"
Just as it emerges from underground, the Tank Beetle is riddled with countless bullets, which infuriates it.
With a heavy stomp on the ground, it raises its head high, and a crimson liquid oozes from the corners of its mouth.
"Superheated corrosive fluid!"
"Find cover!"
Seeing the Tank Beetle's movements, everyone in its path quickly moves away from their original positions and flanks around its sides.
"Spew!"
But, the Tank Beetle's spray is too fast.
Two guards, lacking combat experience and physical fitness, are caught directly by the Tank Beetle's superheated corrosive fluid. In an instant, they melt away.
The corrosive fluid is so potent that it can corrode even space alloys, let alone standard protective suits.
"Damn it!"
"That's a massacre!"
"Cease fire!"
The crowd intended to fight back, but they hesitated when they saw Zhou Yuan crawling to the top of the entrance of the research center and then leaping onto the back of the tank beetle. Although the space armor was bulletproof, it couldn't withstand the impact force.
If they hit Zhou Yuan, he would fall off the tank beetle's back. Under the scrutiny of the onlookers, Zhou Yuan's skull helmet revealed a smile.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Zhou Yuan pulled out an S500 revolver and quickly emptied a magazine before the tank beetle noticed anything was wrong and began shaking its body, trying to throw Zhou Yuan off its back. But this was exactly what Zhou Yuan wanted.
He used the force from the tank beetle's back to jump down from a height of ** meters. After landing, he rolled behind a dead soldier worm and pressed his earpiece: "It's about to explode. Watch out for the superheated corrosive liquid!"
Inside the adult tank beetle was a corrosive fluid sac located in its tail. Although Zhou Yuan threw the hand grenade on its back, it was better to be safe than sorry.
"Bang!"
After a brief evasive action, a muffled explosion sounded. The tank beetle fell, and its head and mid-abdomen segments disappeared, turning into numerous colorful splatters of flesh and blood that scattered all over the place.
"Everyone, evacuate now!"
Zhou Yuan didn't have time to think. He quickly changed to the machine gun and started killing the bugs. From the appearance of the tank beetle to its death, there seemed to be many things happening, but the total time was less than a minute. However, the speed of the soldier worms was fast, and in this short minute, at least one thousand soldier worms had flooded into the valley. Except for the entrance to the research center, the other areas were already crowded with soldier worms.
"Storm, give me two tactical nuclear bombs!"
"Good idea. How about four?"
"An even better idea!"
During the retreat, Zhou Yuan also took four tactical nuclear bombs from Storm, set them to detonate in one minute, and threw them on the ground one after another.
"Steve, we're done!"
Buck was standing at the door of the cockpit and informed the pilot as soon as everyone had retreated into the cabin.
"Leave it to me!"
As a special operations team's exclusive driver, Steve was also experienced and made the transport plane lift off the ground immediately. After the transport plane took off, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially Buck.
"Kid, how did you do that?"
Buck walked up to Zhou Yuan and heavily patted his shoulder.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuan was there, or he would have to go back to Mars alone.
"I was following orders, sir."
"You gave the order to us, telling us to get rid of it as quickly as possible, so I went and killed it."
Zhou Yuan stood upright and saluted powerfully.
"Cool!"
Hearing Zhou Yuan's words, a chorus of admiration erupted in the cabin. Everyone had a thought in their hearts. This is a real man!
