Chapter 1 Ironblood Warriors

The Ironblood Predators are a race born for battle. Whether fighting alone or in coordination, they possess extremely strong combat experience and talent!

After repeatedly encountering obstacles from humans, the Arbitrator clearly realized that the situation on the Upsilon Eridani planet was about to spiral out of control. Therefore, he did not hesitate to issue an order, ejecting three sub-ships to accelerate ahead.

These three sub-ships, due to their size, could traverse smaller and more unstable wormholes, acting like taking a shortcut. Of course, this also meant taking a huge risk.

Therefore, the Ironbloods aboard the sub-ships were not important figures. Each sub-ship carried fifteen individuals, twelve of whom were combat reconnaissance personnel, and three were researchers. Their role was to activate the Upsilon Eridani asteroid belt defense line, preventing humans from forcibly breaking in with a large fleet.

When traversing unstable wormholes, two of the three sub-ships encountered accidents. Only one arrived at the Upsilon Eridani planet ahead of schedule.

As the first members to arrive at the Upsilon Eridani planet, their primary task was reconnaissance and stabilizing the current situation. After discovering that humans had no intention of invading with a large-scale fleet, their biggest concern was relieved.

After contacting the main ship, the pride of the Ironblood Predators overcame everything, and they began to attack on their own, planning to first clear the "parasites" on the planet. Although this group of Ironblood Predators who arrived first were the most basic soldiers, they still believed that it was not a problem at all to solve the troubles caused by these humans by uniting together.

Thus, this raid occurred.

Clearly, the Ironblood Predators regarded all humans as enemies. Therefore, in the Ironblood Predators' plan, this was a battle of the few against the many. Thus, there were two key elements to this battle:

First, decapitation to undermine the enemy's morale.

Second, create enough chaos! Like cavalry breaking through formations in the age of cold weapons. Dispersing routed soldiers to impact the central army formation, once the situation was completely chaotic and the enemy could not organize an effective resistance, then it could be said that the overall situation was set.

So these Ironblood Predators did exactly that. They first focused their fire on the strongest person in the field, then threw the skinned corpses of sentinels into the field to create chaos, and finally left half of their men in the distance, using shoulder-mounted laser cannons to disperse the places where people gathered. The other half cloaked and charged into the battlefield, using cold weapons in close combat to kill and create panic...

Strictly speaking, this plan was truly perfect, and no flaws could be found. However, the Ironblood Predators' raid only caused a great deal of panic to those native humans.

The most important reason for this lies with Fang Senyan and his group.

When Fang Senyan was fighting with Skull Man Tom, the others were also on high alert, fully prepared, because the strength of these top ten experimental subjects had already been recognized by them, so they were afraid that the opponent would turn hostile!

These veterans present had seen enemies turning the tables after being raided more than once. Therefore, although no one knew about the Ironblood Predators' raid beforehand, it could be said that it was within their expectations, only they had not guessed the identities of those launching the raid. Under such circumstances, it was only natural that the situation would be gradually turned around as time went on.

Five minutes and seventeen seconds after the battle began, Fang Senyan and Ronnie jointly killed the first Ironblood Predator. Before he died, he had been trying his best to activate another standard device: a small high-energy hydrogen nuclear bomb installed on his right hand. The final result was that Ronnie forcibly chopped off his right hand.

Seven minutes and eleven seconds, the second Ironblood Predator was killed by Paul and Bokan. This guy successfully self-destructed before his death. A mushroom cloud rose, and the shrill flash illuminated the earth, sweeping through the scene within a fifty-meter radius. That Traveler experimental subject was unfortunately caught in it and died.

Nine minutes and eight seconds, Da Er Da Ni Yang, with the cooperation of everyone, used his root treant to capture an Ironblood Predator alive.

At this point, although the native humans suffered heavy casualties, Fang Senyan and his group only had Paul's arm blown off, and the rest were only injured but not killed, even though they were in a mess. The Ironblood Predators' first raid completely failed.

And this group of powerful creatures definitely had no intention of fighting to the death. Once they realized that the general trend was gone, they quickly dispersed into the mountains and forests to retreat. Although four of their companions had died at this time, their cloaking devices played a huge role at this time, making it difficult to track them at all. These were just the basic warriors of the Ironblood Predators. If a strike failed, they would immediately flee far away, which was amazing.

After the battle subsided, Fang Senyan took a deep breath and felt a great crisis. There is a saying that if winter comes, will spring be far away? For Fang Senyan, since the vanguard had already arrived, wouldn't the main force be far behind...?

The human camp was like a pot of boiling porridge, gradually calming down as time went on.

Fang Senyan and his group did not leave, but stayed temporarily. They needed to analyze and assess the battlefield, and then summarize some basic information and combat capabilities of the Ironblood Predators.

Placed on a flat rock was the corpse of an Ironblood Predator, dissected and organized by Android 1.

The bonfire beside it was burning brightly, illuminating the corpse completely, with no blind spots in sight. Uncoagulated blood flowed down from the large stone, dyeing large pools of emerald green beneath it, creating a tragic scene.

Android 1 held a tree branch and began to point out and explain the Ironblood Predator's physiological structure:

This is a humanoid creature with 50% similarity to humans, 30% similarity to insects, and 20% similarity to beasts. Their yellowish-brown skin is four times thicker than human skin and three times tougher. Their body surface has tough mesh lines for hanging various external equipment.

Their average height is about two meters, and their head is 1.5 times that of humans. Their brain capacity is large, but their skull is much tougher than that of humans, but it can also be determined that the head is one of their vital points.

Their abdominal cavity is completely different from that of humans. The Ironblood Predator's lymphatic system and blood system are combined into one, without a heart, intestines, or other human organs. The abdominal cavity usually has five fist-sized glands, which are divided into three categories according to their functions:

Digestive glands,

Reproductive glands,

Immune glands.

Among these three types of glands, only the immune gland located below the chest will produce fatal possibilities after being severely damaged. Therefore, when attacking, it is not recommended to put more energy into their abdomen.

The Ironblood Predator's bone strength is about 4.7 times that of humans, and their muscle density is 6.4 times that of humans, which means it takes more energy to confront them head-on.

It is strongly recommended that when attacking, focus on the Ironblood Predator's ankles. This position is the least protected and the most vulnerable part of the Ironblood Predator's body. Once successful, its mobility will be reduced by 60%.

After Android 1 finished telling these things, he stretched out his hand towards the stone next to him, which was covered with many strange and dazzling things:

Currently, the Ironblood Predators who attacked us have the following standard equipment, which can be divided into two categories in terms of use: weapons and auxiliary equipment.

The auxiliary standard equipment includes:

Mask: The mask worn on the face of the Ironblood Predator can provide the Ironblood Predator with multiple spectrum scans and has functions such as magnifying images and perspective; there is an infrared automatic aiming device on the right side of the eye; it can record sound and translate the languages of other species.

This is a powerful tool for the Ironblood Predator to track prey and understand opponents. The mask is connected to the trachea. When removing it, the trachea needs to be pulled out. The Ironblood Predator obtains the gas needed for survival through the mask. The mask is also a symbol of the Ironblood Predator's identity. Different masks represent different statuses, arms, and honors.

Microcomputer: Equipped on the Ironblood Predator's left arm, the structure is relatively complex. It can control most of the thermal weapons and high-tech equipment on the body, such as controlling spectrum scanning and cloaking systems. It can also be used for biological analysis. It is equipped with a laser projector, which can help the Ironblood Predator analyze relevant information. It is also essentially a miniature bomb.

Wrist blades

Combat equipment includes:

Wrist blades,

High-energy laser shoulder cannon: The power is equivalent to the main gun of a main battle tank.

Hunter net: Traps prey to make it lose its freedom, is very sharp, and can directly kill enemies with weak constitutions.

Fast blade disc: This is a very sharp remote cold weapon, which is sometimes ejected by the mechanism on the arm, or can be thrown directly.

Everyone listened quietly to Android 1's explanation, and memorized these things in their hearts. These things can undoubtedly save lives at critical moments. Android 1 then said:

"According to the analysis of my offline database, these Ironblood Predators are similar to the lowest-level scouts, and their task is pure reconnaissance. It should be due to underestimating the enemy that they gathered together and launched this raid."

"In addition, the Ironblood Predator we captured alive should be similar to a medic in the army, because his weapons only include the shoulder cannon and wrist blades, but he also carries a portable medical repair box."

"This is an important logistical support device for the Ironblood Predator, which is oval-shaped and foldable. It can be opened by pressing it, and can hold a variety of medical devices or weapons and tools. It contains items such as syringes, scalpels, application tools, and folding combustion dishes."

"It is worth mentioning that there is a blue liquid that can dissolve inorganic substances such as glass and lime to form a blue colloidal medical gel, which is used to treat wounds, and even the treatment of severed limb sections."
