Chapter 13 Big-Belly Bird

On the day of joining the company.

Li Xin has completed the transformation from a civilian to a company employee.

Moreover, he is an intern at the M1D3 level, which means he was promoted two levels right after joining the company. If he were in a stable position, Li Xin would be so happy that he would not be able to sleep tonight.

Unfortunately, I have to go to Hengan Defense right after joining the company. This is really bad luck.

At this time, Li Xin was already in a military base. Following the guidance of the chip, he came to the login entrance of a transport boat.

Li Xin's attire was different at this time. He was wearing the uniform of the defense department, which was a black uniform.

The uniform was straight, with white lines outlining the corners. When worn on Li Xin, his already tall figure instantly looked even more heroic.

Wearing his own employee badge, Li Xin boarded the transport boat.

After chip retrieval, this transport boat was found to be a Pelican-class transport boat.

Its full name is Big Belly Bird - Pelican-class transport boat!

After seeing this name, even Li Xin had to admire the genius of the name.

After entering the transport boat, Li Xin sat in his seat according to the staff's instructions.

This is not a single seat, it is relatively spacious. Li Xin looked around and saw rows of the same seats.

Soon, more and more people boarded the transport boat, similar to Li Xin, but also somewhat different.

These people are all soldiers, and they are probably veterans with many years of service.

They were wearing standard urban camouflage uniforms and carrying large military backpacks that were almost full, which obviously contained their equipment.

These soldiers also belong to Blueprint Biotech, but they are under the command of Blueprint Biotech's Defense Department.

The official level within the group's staff is: M1F0.

Strictly speaking, they are not formal employees of Blueprint. After all, Blueprint employees, even ordinary interns, are M1E1.

And these people are soldiers, consumables, and consumables that cannot be promoted.

Their ranks can only be promoted within the F series and they cannot become officers unless they enter a military training school for in-depth training.

If the normal process is followed, if Li Xin wants to join the blueprint, the most likely possibility is to join the defense department.

But the place is already crowded, and he may need to work for many years with the F number before he can truly become an employee of the group.

This was true even though he had undergone eight years of basic military training since his teenage years.

He had joined the company normally before and was also an F-level officer, which was at most equivalent to a non-commissioned officer, not even an officer.

About two hundred soldiers boarded the Pelican transport boat one after another, and then the flow of people gradually stopped.

But the transport boat had not yet taken off and was still busy.

Under the seats of Li Xin and others is a transport space, which is currently carrying various supplies, including weapons, ammunition, and even vehicles.

The Pelican transport boat has a very good carrying capacity and can carry at least a battalion, more than 300 soldiers and the equipment they need.

According to Li Xin's guess, the weapons and equipment of the soldiers around him should be carried below.

There may also be a portion of weapons supplies supplied to Hengan Defense.

However, these have nothing to do with Li Xin for the time being. He has nothing but a body of skin.

The soldiers on the side were armed to the teeth with standard rifles and pistols.

And he was completely unarmed.

Although his rank is higher than the soldiers next to him, as a newly promoted half-baked psychic, if a battle breaks out, he will probably be beaten directly by the soldiers next to him.

The rifles in the soldiers' hands are all standard electromagnetic rifles.

V12 electromagnetic rifle.

Using metal projectiles, after being accelerated by the electromagnetic track inside the gun, these metal projectiles are fired out, and their power is several times more than that of ordinary gunpowder weapons.

Li Xin had used this weapon before when he was a military trainee, and had a pretty good understanding of its power.

The soldiers were also wearing simple armor, according to Li Xin's vision, and with the help of chip identification.

The armor worn by the soldiers should be Red Seal Individual II armor.

This is a kind of individual semi-protective armor. Although it is called semi-protective armor, the main part of the body is protected.

Made of E-grade military composite alloy, the torso is fully protected, and the thighs of the lower limbs also have leg armor made of the same material.

Only the joints and arms, which require flexible movement, use lightweight protection made of composite woven fabrics.

Gunpowder weapons can no longer penetrate this set of armor, and of course, powerful weapons such as machine guns are not within the range of defense.

Because of its strength and comfort, even the V12 electromagnetic gun requires continuous hits to penetrate the armor.

Of course, even if the electromagnetic gun does not penetrate the soldiers, it will not be easy. The huge kinetic energy is enough to knock them away. Even with the cushioning of armor, broken bones are normal.

Looking at these soldiers armed to the teeth, Li Xin felt nervous. The cost of these soldiers' uniforms was not cheap, at least much more expensive than the soldiers themselves.

Judging from their appearance, they should be the same as Li Xin, belonging to the cannon fodder troops supporting Heng'an's defense.

That’s right, it’s the cannon fodder troops!

On the colonized planet of Guansuo 4, even if these infantrymen wore individual armor, they were still cannon fodder.

Even in the battle on the front line, there will be no attacks from starships in orbit because of the subspace storm in the universe.

However, there is definitely no shortage of heavy vehicles between the two armies, including various heavy artillery, multi-functional armored vehicles, tanks, fighter jets, and even mechas.

In the face of these mechanical creations, the role of infantry is greatly reduced, but the cost in lives is greatly increased.

War is easy only when you watch it.

If you really join the war in person, it will definitely not be a good thing.

Of course, if you are in a high position, in the command center in the rear, then Li Xin didn't say anything.

They only have good things going for them. If the front line wins, they can take the lion's share of the credit.

If the battle is lost, even if all the infantrymen are killed, the commander in the rear will not be in any danger of life and can continue to recruit soldiers to join the battle.

“Buzz buzz buzz!”

Accompanied by the roar of the Pelican-class transport boat's engine, this huge mechanical creation rose from the ground and moved towards the distance.

After a brief period of pressure, the transport boat entered a stable flight state.

"Attention all units: I am the captain of this transport boat!"

"The Big Belly Bird has taken off!"

"We will spend a wonderful 13 hours and 25 minutes in the air together!"

"Now... let's get excited!!"
