The initial tension of participating in the "city cleanup" operation had vanished. After understanding their own strength and the weakness of most of the enemies, each soldier relaxed.
They nimbly leaped and tidied up the corpses of the monstrous creatures scattered everywhere.
Of course, we must not let our guard down. As military elites, we are confident in our strength but will never lose our sense of awe. We can be relaxed but never underestimate our opponents.
"Company commander, it seems there are more Blue People who have survived in this city than we thought."
Xing Zhenrui looked at the small cluster of yellow dots in front of the radar cross-section and nodded in amazement.
"Indeed, with such tiny bodies, the Azure People probably don't have much strength. While those monstrous creatures might not be a problem for us, they are absolute monsters to ordinary Azure People. It's really not easy to survive in such a place with such severe mutations."
At the entrance of a centralized nest-house building ahead, about a dozen Azuremen were gritting their teeth and using their scavenging tools and weapons to beat a dead creature on the ground.
That was the kind of creature with a high degree of mutation, many times larger than ordinary monstrous creatures.
While ordinary aberrant creatures may exhibit severe atavistic characteristics, they can still vaguely resemble the former Blue People. However, this behemoth is a completely different species.
They devoured the most Blue People, and these survivors now faced the dead monsters one by one, venting their suppressed fear and anger.
"Bastard! Bastard! Give me back my mother, give me back my mother..."
"Come on, come on, eat me! You disgusting thing, get up!!"
"Bang~ Bang~"
...
The sounds of sticks and other objects striking each other were incessant, and the people at the innermost part of the group were in a state of frenzy.
But those few people soon realized that all the blue-haired people around them had stopped, leaving only them still venting their anger and punching.
"Bang~ Bang~" Several sharpened wooden sticks fell to the ground and rolled away due to the angle of the road.
It rolled all the way to the foot of a silver-white animal not far away before being stepped on by its owner.
Company Commander Xing Zhenrui bent down and picked up this thing that could hardly be called a weapon. He looked at it curiously from top to bottom, and the camera on his combat suit recorded the information of this "weapon".
"They use this thing to protect themselves?"
A soldier standing nearby asked his superior with a hint of sarcasm.
"No, it's used to comfort myself, and to commit suicide when necessary."
Xing Zhenrui turned to look at the nine soldiers from the company who were following him. Even though he couldn't see their facial expressions, he knew that these guys definitely had a sense of contempt in them.
These elite special forces members are all proud and don't think much of those weaker than themselves. In addition, since the other party is not human, their attitude towards them is probably not much better than how the colonists viewed the local natives when the Americas were discovered.
"Don't look down on them. These survivors may not be heroes, but they are absolutely worthy of respect. They are the pride of their planet's civilization. We represent Earth and humanity!"
Although the company commander seemed to have only emphasized a certain rule in the legion manual, it made the soldiers put away their previous attitude.
"One company calling command post, one company calling command post."
"Received, please proceed."
"Survivors of the Blue Star have been discovered, number 17. Please provide instructions."
"Follow the manual. The disaster relief camp will be set up shortly, and the accurate coordinates will be sent at that time."
"clear!"
The brief exchange between the human soldiers brought a silent, terrifying, and oppressive feeling to the blue-skinned people.
These silvery-white "giants" were equipped with weapons on their backs and between their legs, though they were incomprehensible. Their terrifying power needs no further explanation; the corpses scattered throughout the city were the best proof.
Even though we are a short distance away, we still have to look up to these things.
Although there is a 90% chance that these are the "angels" from Kunkala's mother's oracle, the fear in his heart just won't subside.
"Greetings, people of Azure Star! We are the Star Gods, the vanguard legion of the human landing force. We have come to Azure Star to assist you under orders from Lady Kunkala!"
The company commander used the calmest possible bio-waves to convey basic information to the group of adorable, clearly frightened, blue-haired people.
Yes.
With its big eyes, smooth skin, nimble tail, and a mouth that curves outwards like a frog's, it's a perfect cartoon character.
"The Star Gods? They obeyed Kunkala's mother's orders? They really are angels!"
All the Azure People present visibly breathed a sigh of relief, and upon hearing Kunkala's mother's name, they immediately chose to trust her.
"You really are angels! Thank you, thank you for defeating these monsters!"
But after saying these words, the blue-haired man was at a loss, unsure of what to do next, whether to turn around and leave or what.
"You can follow us for now. We're currently cleaning up the corpses of the monstrous creatures. We'll take you to the rescue site in a bit."
"Okay...okay, we can help you..."
Before the words were even finished, the group of blue-haired people saw the enormous corpse that they had been hitting without moving was lifted up by a silver giant with one hand and, with a flick of his wrist, flew a great distance to a pile of dark red objects in the distance.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the corpses of the monsters were collected by several other silver giants during their conversation.
As the collection efforts continued and moved, most of Earth's population had put aside their contempt for the Blue People, especially some of the more knowledgeable ones.
Even though the city has been ravaged, the sophisticated instruments and steam technology discovered as they proceed at their leisurely pace demonstrate that the Blue People are no less intelligent.
Many things may seem outdated, but after someone takes them apart and examines them closely, the ingenuity of some of the internal components is astonishing and definitely worth referencing.
At this time, more and more Azure People followed the group. Most of them were malnourished and emaciated, and some of them walked unsteadily.
Left with no other choice, the soldiers found a relatively large steam engine and had the Blue People ride in it, while the already immobile steam engine was towed by two soldiers.
This demonstration of the immense power of human soldiers once again shattered the Blue People's worldview.
Once they reached the starting point at the edge, Garma and his companions had already dismounted from the giant beast and were waiting there.
As the "chosen one," Garma still possesses courage and determination.
...
In the information interface of the Source Suit, all the Azure People's strength does not reach the rank threshold, which is above the Black Iron level.
The combat strength data is only 2 for the Garma group, 3.5 for the Chido brothers, and the weak city survivors are mostly pitiful at 1.1 or 1.2.
Looking at the large group of Azuremen, with Garmar at the forefront, his face resolute and excited, the Major General Commander of the Legion thought to himself that if his neck were a little longer, he would look quite like "ET".
"Transmit the information to the Void Patrol via telepathy and report the results of the first phase of the battle to Earth."
"yes!"
