The Predators were a race that was born to fight. Whether they fought alone or cooperatively, they had extremely strong fighting experience and talent!
After repeatedly being hindered by the humans, the Arbiters had obviously realized that the situation on Uplos was about to get out of their control, so they did not hesitate to issue an order to eject three sub-ships and have them speed up ahead of the rest of the fleet.
Due to their size, these three sub-ships could shuttle through small and unstable wormholes, which was similar to a shortcut. Of course, this also meant that they had to take a huge risk.
Therefore, the Predators in the sub-ships were not important figures. Each sub-ship could carry fifteen people, twelve of whom were combat reconnaissance personnel, and three of whom were scientific researchers. Their role was to activate the defence line of the Uplos asteroid belt to prevent the humans from forcibly breaking in with a large number of fleets.
When the three sub-ships were shuttling through the unstable wormholes, two of them suffered accidents, and only one of them arrived on planet Uplos ahead of time.
As the first batch of members to arrive on planet Uplos, their main task was to investigate and stabilize the current situation. After discovering that the humans did not intend to invade with a large fleet, they were relieved of their biggest worries.
After contacting the main ship, the pride of the Predators overcame everything. They began to attack on their own, intending to clean up the "parasites" on the planet first. Although the group of Predators who arrived first were the most basic soldiers, they still believed that it would not be a problem for them to deal with the trouble caused by the humans if they worked together.
Therefore, this surprise attack was carried out.
Obviously, the Predators regarded all humans as enemies. Therefore, in the Predators' plan, this was a battle where they were outnumbered. Therefore, there were two key elements to this battle.
First, decapitation to demoralize the enemy.
Second, create enough chaos! Just like how cavalry broke through a formation in the era of cold weapons, once the situation was completely chaotic and the enemy could not organize an effective resistance, it could be said that the battle was over.
Therefore, the Predators carried out their plan strictly. First, they focused their fire on the strongest in the field, then threw the skinned corpses of the sentinels into the field to create chaos. Finally, half of them stayed in the distance to disperse the crowd with shoulder-mounted lasers, while the other half rushed into the battlefield in stealth mode and used melee weapons to create panic ….
Strictly speaking, the plan was perfect. There were no loopholes in it, but the surprise attack of the Predators only caused a large degree of panic among the indigenous humans at most.
The most important reason for this was Party Ace's group.
While Party Ace and Tom were fighting, the rest of the contestants were also on high alert. The strength of the Top Ten test subjects in front of them had already gained their recognition, so they were afraid that the opponent would turn on them!
It was not the first time these old foxes present had seen the enemy turn the tables on them. Therefore, although no one knew about the Predators' surprise attack beforehand, it could be said that it was within their expectations. It was just that they did not guess the identity of the person who launched the surprise attack. Under such circumstances, it was reasonable for the situation to be turned around bit by bit as time passed.
Five minutes and 17 seconds after the start of the battle, Sheyan and Ronnie killed the first Predator together. Before he died, the Predator tried his best to activate another standard device: a small hydrogen high-energy bomb installed on his right hand. In the end, his right hand was cut off by Ronnie.
At seven minutes and eleven seconds, the second Predator was killed by Paul and Pokan. The Predator successfully self-destructed before he died. A mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and a shrill flash illuminated the ground and swept across the scene within 50 meters. The Traveller test subject was unfortunately caught in the explosion and died.
At nine minutes and eight seconds, Dardanian, with the cooperation of the others, captured a Predator alive with his Root Ent.
At this point, although the native humans had suffered heavy casualties, only Paul had lost an arm. The rest of the contestants were in a sorry state, but they were only injured. The first surprise attack of the Predators had completely failed.
These powerful creatures had absolutely no intention of fighting to the death. As soon as they realised that they had lost the upper hand, they quickly dispersed into the forest and retreated, even though four of their companions had died. Their cloaking devices played a great role at this time, making it difficult to track them down. They were only the basic Predators. After their first attack failed, they immediately fled. It was truly amazing.
After the battle subsided, Sheyan took a deep breath. He felt a great sense of crisis. As the saying went, "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?" For Sheyan, of course, since the vanguard had arrived, the main force would not be far behind ….

The human camp was like a pot of boiling porridge, which gradually calmed down as time went by.
Party Ace did not leave. They stayed for the time being. They needed to analyse and evaluate the battlefield, and then summarize some basic information and combat capabilities of the Predators.
Placed on a flat rock was the corpse of a Predator that had been dissected and arranged by Cyborg No. 1.
The bonfire next to the corpse was burning fiercely, illuminating every detail of the corpse. There was not a single blind spot in the line of sight. Blood that had not yet coagulated flowed down from the boulder, dying the ground below the corpse a large pool of emerald color.
Cyborg No. 1 held a branch and began to explain the physiological structure of the Predators.
The Predators were humanoid creatures that were 50% similar to humans, 30% similar to insects, and 20% similar to wild beasts. Their beige skin was four times thicker and three times tougher than human skin. Their bodies were covered with tough wires that could be used to hang a variety of external equipment.
Their average height was about two meters, and their heads were 1.5 times larger than human heads. Their brain capacity was very large, but their skulls were much tougher than human skulls. However, it could still be determined that the head was one of their vital points.
The inside of their abdominal cavity was completely different from human organs. The lymphatic system and blood system of the Predators were integrated into one. They did not have a heart, intestines or other human organs. There were usually five fist-sized glands in the abdominal cavity, which could be divided into three categories according to their functions:
Digestive glands,
Reproductive glands,
Immune glands,
Of these three types of glands, only the immune glands located below the chest could be fatal if they were seriously damaged. Therefore, it was not recommended to put too much energy into attacking the abdomen of the Predator.
The bone strength of a Predator was about 4.7 times that of a human's, and the muscle density was 6.4 times that of a human's, which meant that it would take more energy to fight them head-on.
It was strongly recommended to focus on the ankle of a Predator when attacking. The ankle was the most vulnerable part of the Predator's body, which was not well protected. If the ankle was attacked, the Predator's mobility would be reduced by 60%.

After explaining these things, Cyborg No. 1 reached out to the stone next to him. There were a lot of strange and dazzling things on it.
At present, the group of Predators who attacked us has the following standard equipment. In terms of purpose, these equipment can be divided into two major categories: weapons and auxiliary.
The standard auxiliary equipment is:
Mask: The mask worn by a Predator can provide the Predator with a variety of spectral scans, magnification of images, X-ray vision and other functions. There is an infrared auto-aiming device on the right side of the eye. It can record and translate the language of other species.
This is a weapon that the Predators use to track their prey and understand their opponents. The mask is connected to the trachea. The trachea needs to be pulled out when the mask is removed. The Predator obtains the gas needed for survival through the mask. The mask is also a symbol of the status of a Predator. Different masks represent different status, types of troops and glory.
Microcomputer: Equipped on the left arm of a Predator. The structure is relatively complex. It can control most of the firearms and high-tech equipment on the Predator, such as spectral scanning, stealth systems and so on. It can also be used for biological analysis. It is equipped with a laser projector that can help the Predator analyse relevant information. It is also a miniature bomb.
Wrist Spikes (WristBlades)
The combat-type equipment is:
Wrist Spikes: High-energy Laser Shoulder Cannon: Its power is equivalent to that of the main gun of a main battle tank.
Hunting Net: Net the prey and make them lose their freedom. It is very sharp and can also directly kill enemies with weak physiques.
Flying Saucer: This is a very sharp long-range cold weapon. Sometimes it can be ejected by using the mechanism on the arm. It can also be thrown directly.

Everyone quietly listened to Cyborg No. 1's narration and memorized these things in their hearts. There was no doubt that these things could save their lives at a critical moment. Cyborg No. 1 continued, "Let's go.
Cyborg No. 1 continued, "According to the analysis of my offline database, these Predators are similar to the lowest-level scouts. Their task is simple reconnaissance. They probably underestimated the enemy, so they gathered together and launched this surprise attack. “
"In addition, the living predator we caught should be similar to a medic in the army, because he only had shoulder cannons and wrist stingers, but he also carried a portable medical repair kit."
"This is an important logistical support equipment for the Predators. It is oval in shape, foldable, and can be opened by pressing a button. A variety of medical equipment, weapons and tools can be placed inside, such as syringes (suspected to be used to inject substances similar to adrenaline stimulants), scalpels, applicators, foldable burners and so on.
"In particular, there is a blue liquid that can dissolve glass, lime and other inorganic substances to form a blue gelatinous medical gel, which is used to treat wounds and even the cross-section of severed limbs.
