Cinder opened his backpack.
Three temporary buffs were applied directly.
"Enhanced Firepower, Enhanced Armor, Enhanced Power!"
Although the increase from the three buffs was only ten percent, in war, it might be this mere ten percent that could sway the tide of battle.
That One-Eyed Little Treasure entered the base from the west, where Infantry Platoon 1 was responsible. Cinder shouted, "Infantry Platoon 1, open fire!"
As soon as the order was given, the distinctive sound of carbine fire rang out.
Bullets struck the Ruin Guard's body, and as expected, they were all deflected.
Carbines couldn't penetrate its armor.
But at least it attracted the Ruin Guard's attention.
The Ruin Guard took large strides towards the barracks.
"Good, lure it over." Cinder directed the entire battle.
Currently, the least valuable thing in the entire base was the barracks.
If the barracks were destroyed, he could spend 500 funds to rebuild them, but if other facilities were destroyed, especially the Base Headquarters, the cost would be truly unbearable.
Cinder told the Soldiers, "This robot's weakness is its eye, fire at it!"
Upon his command, dense bullets traveled over a hundred meters, striking the Ruin Guard's eye.
Indeed, this weakness was the same as in the game.
It was just much harder to trigger the condition.
In the game, just an arrow could make the Ruin Guard enter a brief stun.
If attacked again, the Ruin Guard would fall into a temporary paralysis.
However, this was reality; ten people firing their guns together barely managed to stun it.
"Grizzly Tank 1, Grizzly Tank 2, now, open fire!"
Boom—!
On the western high ground, the tanks fired their shells.
The shells directly impacted the One-Eyed Little Treasure's chest armor.
The immense impact caused it to fall backward. At this moment, the second Grizzly Tank also fired, and a shell once again struck the Ruin Guard directly.
Bang~
The One-Eyed Little Treasure fell to the ground.
Cinder looked, and two shells had created two indentations in the One-Eyed Little Treasure's armor.
The firepower was astonishing, but unfortunately, the shells loaded in the Grizzly Tanks were still a bit insufficient to blow open the Ruin Guard's armor.
Confirming the thickness of the One-Eyed Little Treasure's iron armor.
Cinder gave an order to the two Heavy Troopers positioned at the top of the Headquarters: "One anti-tank missile, fire!"
Whoosh~
As soon as he finished speaking, the missile, trailing white smoke, directly impacted the One-Eyed Little Treasure.
Everyone awaited the result.
Two seconds later, Sophia delivered good news: "Target destruction confirmed!"
Everyone's hearts rejoiced; their biggest fear was that their weapons wouldn't be able to penetrate the large robot's armor.
Now it seemed that the Heavy Troopers' anti-tank missiles were the core of this battle.
"Soldiers, report how many anti-tank missiles you have left?"
"Reporting, Commander, we still have 32 anti-tank missiles, enough to send these bastards to meet their cyber gods!"
"Very good, everyone listen up now. Positions 1 to 5 will coordinate to knock down and restrict the Ruin Guard's movement. The final blow will be delivered by the two anti-tank infantry. Infantry Platoon 1, Platoon 2, and Platoon 3 will coordinate to draw these guys out."
"Understood." Everyone's morale was visibly boosted.
Sophia stared at the radar, and soon she told everyone: "Intruders 2 and 3 have entered the base from the west. Intruders 4, 5, and 6 will also break through the northern wall in 25 seconds."
In less than half a minute, even if everyone's speed was faster, they couldn't deal with two Ruin Guards within half a minute.
But no one panicked.
They had already found a way to defeat the enemy.
The infantry platoons began to attract the Ruin Guards' attention.
The tank positions started firing shells, and their cooperation quickly incapacitated another Ruin Guard.
An anti-tank missile was fired, destroying another Ruin Guard with one hit!
"Watch out! Missiles incoming!" The enemies weren't just moving targets.
Just as everyone jointly destroyed Ruin Guard 2, Ruin Guard 3 had already aimed and fired two missiles.
The Soldiers of Infantry Platoon 1 only had time to crawl and dodge before the missiles exploded behind them.
The blast from the explosion made the glass on the second floor rattle.
Boom boom boom—!
At this moment, the Grizzly Tanks at the tank positions fired again.
Without the Soldiers helping to stun, the Grizzly Tanks' accuracy decreased significantly; only one out of two shells hit.
An anti-tank missile was fired, but one shot didn't completely finish off the opponent. It wasn't until the second Heavy Trooper fired a missile that Ruin Guard 3 was completely destroyed.
"Soldiers, report casualties." Cinder inquired about Platoon 1's casualties via radio.
But for a moment, no one from Platoon 1 answered.
At this point, the northern wall of the base had been breached.
"Enemies from the north are here."
Cinder didn't have time to worry about his subordinates; he turned his head to direct Platoon 3 in the north.
"Platoon 3, draw fire. Positions 4 and 5, coordinate to destroy Ruin Guard 4 first."
"Understood!"
Da da da~
Carbines fired bullets, and everyone's marksmanship was still very precise.
The 15 Soldiers of Platoon 3 defending the north opened fire simultaneously, and Ruin Guard 4's body was stunned.
The squad leader of this squad was much smarter; after this attack, they immediately retreated, hiding by the eastern wall before missiles from Ruin Guards 5 and 6 could lock onto them.
Boom boom~
Two shells came, accurately knocking down Ruin Guard 4.
The anti-tank missile arrived as expected.
One missile didn't completely kill it, only breaking its armor.
At this moment, a second anti-tank missile came again.
Ruin Guard 4 was officially declared destroyed.
Ruin Guards 5 and 6, their attention drawn by the people from Platoon 3, moved with slow steps towards the east side of the barracks.
At the position, the Grizzly Tanks finished reloading, and two shells were fired.
The accuracy of this shot wasn't great; one shell grazed the Ruin Guard's armor and actually hit the first floor of the barracks, causing an explosion, and the entire barracks trembled slightly.
Sophia subconsciously threw herself over Cinder, shielding him.
Cinder pushed Sophia away, his expression serious: "It's fine, continue fighting. The barracks won't be destroyed that easily."
Cinder had already anticipated that the Grizzly Tanks might accidentally hit the barracks.
The armor of all buildings was divided into three main categories: wood armor, concrete, and steel.
The Grizzly Tanks' ammunition caused high DMG to wood and concrete armor, but very low DMG to steel armor, only 45%.
It wasn't that easy to destroy the barracks with Grizzly Tank shells.
Below, Ruin Guard 5 was attracted by the Grizzly Tanks at the position. It changed its target, preparing to attack with missiles.
At this moment, the anti-tank missile had already been fired.
With a loud bang, the Ruin Guard fell to the ground. One missile didn't destroy it, and seeing the Ruin Guard about to get up, the Grizzly Tanks fired shells again.
This time, it was the Grizzly Tanks' turn to break the Ruin Guard's armor.
Ruin Guard 5 was destroyed.
Soon, Ruin Guard 6 was also defeated with everyone's cooperation.
"Ruin Guards 7 and 8 will arrive at the base in 30 seconds. Ruin Guards 9 and 10 are expected to arrive in 260 seconds. Ruin Guards 11 to 20 are currently chasing our Military Dogs."
"Very good!" The previous strategy had worked.
Six One-Eyed Little Treasures had already been dealt with.
Now, if these four were also dealt with, the pressure from the remaining ten would greatly decrease.
However, since the enemy would send twenty One-Eyed Little Treasures to attack, they must have a backup plan.
Boom—!
With an explosion, Position 4 on the high ground suddenly exploded.
A Soldier's exclamation came through the radio.
"Position 4 under attack! The enemy is a Pyro Abyss Mage!"
On the other side, Position 5 was also attacked.
"Reporting to Headquarters, Position 5 under attack, we also have an Abyss Mage here!"
The worst was yet to come.
Above the base, a massive portal opened.
A One-Eyed Little Treasure actually fell from the sky, crashing heavily onto the Headquarters building.
Right in front of him were the two Heavy Troopers!
