Chapter 502: Chapter 445: Doomsday

```

At 0:07 in the morning, Nakajima Military Airport on the suburbs of Shangjing.

The lengthy and wide runway was eerily quiet. Twenty-four fighter jets were arrayed in the hangar, each costing between 50 to 200 million in funds. Half were manufactured by Xisheng Industrial Company, the other half commissioned from the Star Ring Aviation Company of New Taixi State.

They were state-of-the-art supersonic fighters, the trump card of New Xisheng Group’s air dominance, always ready to take off and intercept the assault troops of Black Fire Innovation. Following the Martinez incident, the alert mechanism of each air force base in the Northern Archipelago was exceedingly excellent, capable of taking off to execute missions within ten minutes.

"Major——Unidentified aircraft approaching." The radar soldier in the tower became alert as the equipment scanned an unmarked air force unit rapidly closing in.

"There is no such instrument on the signal report form," the radar station’s officer immediately confirmed the situation, "Attack if there’s no response in ten seconds."

"I think they——Someone’s coming down! It’s a paratrooper unit!"

"Prepare for battle!" The officer screamed at the top of his lungs.

The piercing alarm resounded through the base, lighting up the military airport, instantly illuminating the night, as pilots and airport troops rushed out of the barracks, heading towards their combat units.

With the rumble of artillery, a barrage of high-speed rockets swooped low, targeting the airfield and bombarding it indiscriminately!

Boom! Boom!

With a massive salvo of imprecise rocket fire, the entire airfield’s attack and defense erupted instantly!

"Enemy attack!"

"We’re under attack!" Soldiers of the regiment garrisoning the airfield quickly responded. They climbed onto bunkers and defense platforms, shooting down at the enemy from a commanding height.

The adversaries they faced magnified the pressure on them, a group of Synthetic Humans! The elite of the Nestor Legion!

These "Elite Soldiers" carried a variety of military weapons, their mechanical bodies endowed with carrying capacities far exceeding regular infantry. Under the guidance of AI, their tactical maneuvers were maximized for efficiency, relentless and unwavering, assaulting the airfield from all directions in tactical formations.

Compared to their phantasmal assault formations, their voices caused even more eerie tingling on the defenders’ scalps.

"Where is the enemy!"

"Where is the enemy!"

"Where is the enemy!" The Synthetic Humans fought with a single-minded fervor, their cries for locating the enemy echoed through the night sky! The looping broadcast was exceedingly noisy, buzzing in the defenders’ heads.

The Elite Soldiers howled as they charged the positions, with the cover of rocket barrages they fired desperately at the defenders. The AI-guided automatic aiming was spot-on, not a single shot missed!

"There are too many of them!"

"Be careful——"

"Throw electromagnetic grenades!"

"Requesting support!" The airfield’s defending force was struggling to withstand the terrifying Synthetic Humans. The horde of Elite Soldiers advanced under the cover of darkness, not needing any illumination to see, their combat setting was to fight to the death.

The defenders quickly strengthened their defense, as several "Inugami" class BATO-5 type robots, provided by Iwasaki Heavy Industries, slowly emerged from the armory. These combat robots, driven by two legs and standing nearly 6 meters tall, swept the battlefield with rotary machine guns on their arms and launched missiles from the multiple rocket launchers on their backs.

But these combat robots were few! The Elite Soldiers gained the upper hand with the concept of numbers, aiming their standard 105mm rocket launchers at the airfield and unleashing firepower. The sudden barrage of dense explosives covered the combat zone. The rocket launchers were cheap and durable, their armor-piercing power was impressive, suited for overcoming hard targets, and hence an excellent choice to enhance the firepower of the Synthetic Humans.

Boom——Boom!

With the second wave of high-explosive rockets swiftly oncoming, the entire position underwent intense bombardment! Rockets burst densely on the airfield’s runway, shelters, bunkers, perimeter walls, warehouses, and combat robots, casting non-stop explosions, with constructions crumbling severely, and billowing black smoke spiraling into the sky.

After the violent explosions subsided, another round of staggered attacks commenced, as the fearless Synthetic Humans advanced furiously forward, assaulting positions at speeds unthinkable for regular infantry.

"Where is the enemy!"

"Where is the enemy!" The relentless broadcast of the Elite Soldiers imposed a doubled psychological pressure on the defenders, who keenly realized they were not fighting against Humans.

The roar of tank treads thundered as the defenders contracted their line, relying on existing fortifications for defense, while involuntarily shifting their gazes towards the armored ramps.

A "Nekomata" class Main Battle Tank slowly approached the Ground, these heavy tanks the pride of Xisheng Industrial, roaring onto the battlefield, heading toward the north side where combat was most intense.

Boom!

Entering the battle zone, the main gun of "Nekomata" roared, the 135mm smoothbore gun emitted thunderous blasts comparable to a thousand hammers striking an anvil simultaneously.

Equally heart-stopping was the terrifying blast effect, as shells exploded amidst a unit of charging Elite Soldiers, instantly blowing the entire squad of Synthetic Humans to pieces!

The battlefield dominator! The heavy-armored monster! The "Nekomata" tank rumbled forward, forcing the Elite Soldiers to evade its intense battlefield presence. And behind it, on the ramp, more tanks continued to emerge and drive upwards.

Two, three, four, five... New Xisheng had already anticipated the military airport would be a focal point of attention, therefore, an entire tank battalion was installed here! There were a total of twenty-seven main battle tanks!

For the Elite Soldiers lacking heavy firepower, the main battle tanks clad in standard 750mm composite armored steel were virtually immune to their rifles, with their horizontally fired rockets only managing to slightly shake the frontal and side armors. Only top damage caused by air attacks or remote guided strikes had any significant effect.

A battle-hardened "Nekomata" ace tank led the entire battalion, its pale exterior scheme having participated in no less than twenty wars over its service. In this dark night, it stood as a beacon, inspiring the troops of New Xisheng Group to intensify their combat and exterminate the invading enemies.
