Yang Yi was wearing a pair of metal arm guards on his left arm, and when he pressed on his left arm twice, the arm guards immediately made a mechanical clicking sound, extending to his whole body, transforming into a set of exoskeleton armor with a helmet.

And he also took out an energy rifle from his storage gear.

Tina, as for her, is holding two small silver-white short guns in both hands, but the caliber is as large as a hair dryer.

Yang Yi strode ahead, while Tina followed closely behind him, her eyes wandering around.

The more the two walked forward, the more humidity there was in the air. Water droplets quickly condense on the body exposed to the humid air, dripping to the ground from time to time.

Tina's long brown hair, in particular, was now completely wet on her shoulders.

The location where the two were transferred was not far away, and the two only walked for ten minutes before they had already returned to the edge of the city.

Although the fog has become thicker, it has not completely obscured the view. Ahead was a small settlement, cramped with cramped and dilapidated huts, layered of planks along the terrain, some crumbling and others crumbling.

The direction of the wind was blowing from the front, and there was a distinct smell of the sea in the wind.

No one gave the order, but Yang Yi and Tina both slowed down at the same time, glanced at each other, and slowly lowered their bodies.

Creeping to the edge of the shantytown, the two of them saw through the fog a strange plant standing in the center of the shantytown ahead.

Obviously, that's what the quest hint calls the Mist Sea Tree.

In appearance, it is more like a mollusk similar to a sea anemone than a plant. Dozens of soft tentacles stretched out from its trunks, rising high all around, spraying damp mist out incessantly.

Around the mist sea trees, the shack area is full of strange-shaped monsters, which look like a combination of sea creatures and people, and there are various different species.

The hundreds of monsters on the outskirts were not very large, slightly smaller than ordinary people, and there was nothing special about it other than the head of a tuna.

The monsters that go further inward are almost all different, either octopuses or swordfish, but they all have the same human limbs and torso, and they are much larger. Surrounded by the mist trees were several monsters nearly two people tall, full of explosive muscles, with distinct gill clefts on their necks, and two eyes that extended from the sides of their heads through two long handles, which looked like the heads of hammerhead sharks.

"I thought it was something great, but it turned out to be a big humidifier. Yang Yi lowered his voice: "There are a lot of monsters, one snipe, one sneaks, try to delay the time of the battle, and strive to get out with one blow." ”

"Yes. Tina nodded, and just turned around to leave, but Yang Yi suddenly raised his hand and snatched the double spear in her hand, and threw the energy spear in his hand into Tina's arms.

"What for?" said Tina, stunned.

Although the combatants of the Zero City resident team have been trained in various combat styles, there is still a tendency to strengthen the direction. Comparatively speaking, Yang Yi is more adept at long-range sniping, while Tina is more specialized in close-range street combat.

After escaping from City Zero, the two soon find themselves kicked out of the team, and after a few short days, they can only become temporary combat partners. And all the time in the dungeon, it was Yang Yi who sniped and covered in the rear, and Tina charged.

"This time, I'm in front. Yang Yi held the two pistols, slapped them twice in his palms, and said in an undoubted tone: "You just gave birth to a child, don't let him lose his mother." ”

"I don't think this copy is going to be too dangerous, but it's still ...... Thank you. Tina was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Yang Yi remained in place, while Tina picked up the energy spear and quickly climbed up to the high ground on the side with a short body.

South America's hot and humid climate means that the vegetation around the city is still very lush. Tina carefully hid herself in a tropical plant, set up her energy spear, and aimed it at the center of the shack.

"I'm in place. Tina's voice sounded in the rice grain microphone in Yang Yi's ears: "Fifty meters forward from your current position, there is no enemy." Climb in through the window when you walk to the third row of rooms, then exit through the back door on the other side. ”

"Roger. ”

Yang Yi replied in a deep voice, bent down, and moved forward quickly with light and agile steps.

Although there were quite a few fishmen in the shack area, most of them were scattered out for the sake of vigilance, and only a few dozen of them looked more powerful and stubbornly guarded under the mist sea trees. The area of this shack area is not small, and it is also full of all kinds of debris. Under Tina's guidance, Yang Yi stalked cautiously, and soon approached the center of the shack area without being detected.

"There's no way, there's someone. Tina looked through the scope of the energy spear and carefully observed the situation below: "At this distance, there are no defensive dead spots left. ”

"Roger. Provide the best route. Yang Yi kept his voice to a minimum.

He didn't have the luxury of sneaking under the mist sea tree all the way without any fighting. He was satisfied enough to be able to reach such a deep position now.

There are too many monsters to face this time, and if you force yourself to enter head-on, there are only two of them, and the danger is too great. can

"Rush out of the window on your right, fire straight ahead, then turn right and run at full speed at two o'clock, and ...... Wait!"

Tina looked at the scope and let out a low snort.

"What's wrong......?"

As soon as Yang Yi opened his mouth to ask, he had already heard the sound of a wooden board cracking.

"Run!You've been discovered!!"

Tina lowered her voice and said quickly as a beam of energy shot out of the muzzle of the gun, piercing a fish-man.

Yang Yi instinctively went forward deeply, rolled twice on the ground, and at the same time aimed his two guns at his back without looking back, pulled the trigger tightly, and made two arcs.

Behind him, the two fishmen screamed at the same time, and just smashed the board house of the shack, they were hit by a series of light balls the size of ping-pong balls, and flew backwards heavily.

"Rush!"

Tina bit her lower lip and kept aiming at one fish-man after another with her scope, and each time she pulled the trigger, she could see a fish-man's head explode and fall to the ground.

I don't know if it's smell or hearing, but the perception ability of these monsters seems to be quite keen, and they even discovered Yang Yi's traces before their side took the initiative to attack!

At this moment, the original painstaking infiltration was not only completely meaningless, but even made Yang Yi fall into the encirclement!

The only way to do this is to quickly advance under the mist sea tree.

Let's hope that the radioactive source provided by the copy will take effect quickly enough!

The energy spear continued to fire, and each time it locked onto the enemy closest to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi had already rushed out of the dilapidated house and rushed in the direction of the mist sea tree, while shaking his arms horizontally, his two guns spilled out two rows of light balls in front of him, exploding in the crowd of fish. Before the tuna fishman at the front could react, he had already been swept down.

Very weak!

This thought immediately appeared in Yang Yi's heart.

I just don't know what kind of strength those rarer fish-man monsters will be in the back.

Several hammerhead shark people stood under the mist sea tree, and when they saw Yang Yi rushing out of the house, they immediately let out a series of strange syllables, and the surrounding fishmen immediately dispersed in formation, half of them outflanked Yang Yi, and the other half were still guarding the side of the mist sea tree, each of them took out a crossbow made of fish bones from their bodies, aiming at Yang Yi from a distance.

Yang Yi slammed sideways to the ground, flashed a wave of densely packed crossbow arrows, and swept out a wave of light balls again, only this time in the face of the scattered formation, the killing effect was far less than the first wave of raids.

And the wave of crossbow arrows shot on the ground, bursting with a large canopy of frost.

"These guys use magic weapons. ”

Yang Yi whispered to Tina in the intercom, and at the same time rushed into a low shack in a flash, and jumped out of the opposite window.

There are less than fifty meters away from the water mist sea tree!

As soon as Yang Yi rolled out of the window, the shack behind him had been destroyed by a series of frost crossbow arrows, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he rushed along the narrow street towards the inside.

Rumble!

The two houses on the side were violently overturned, and the two hammerhead shark people rushed towards Yang Yi at the same time.

Yang Yi's face was as heavy as frost, his two guns shot wildly, and the balls of light blasted past in a row, and at the same time, his body slid violently, passing under the bag of the two fishmen.

But the skin of the two-headed hammerhead shark man was terrifyingly hard. The energy pistol's ball of light slammed into the surface of the skin, and despite the burns, the force of the explosion did not completely penetrate the skin, only causing them to let out a violent roar in unison.

Despite its size, the hammerhead shark man's movements are not clunky in the slightest. Yang Yi had just slid over, and before he could get up from the fallen state, the two fishmen had already twisted their bodies and waved their arms at the same time.

On the arms of the two hammerhead shark people, there is a long fin on each of them. With a swing, the fin broke through the air and slashed out four wind blades, flying straight towards Yang Yi.

In a hurry, Yang Yi dodged three ways, but he was still hit by the last one in the vest, and the whole person stumbled forward.

Fortunately, the level of the exoskeleton armor on the body is not bad, and the wind blade just now did not penetrate, but if such an attack is eaten two or three times, I am afraid that it will hurt the muscles and bones.

In front of him, dozens of fishmen appeared, and the leader turned out to be a hammerhead shark man.

A beam of light shot from afar, striking precisely at the right gill slit of a hammerhead shark behind him. The soft gill clefts, unprotected by hardened skin, were easily pierced by the beam, exploding a puddle of blood. It's just that the vitality of this hammerhead shark man seems to be amazingly tenacious, and despite the heavy damage, it has not even fallen, but stretched out his hand to point in the direction of Tina in the distance, and roared loudly.

Dozens of bolts were simultaneously hurled in Tina's direction under the command of the hammerhead shark man.

After firing that shot, Tina had already sensed the arrival of counter-fire, and jumped to her feet, leaping to the next sniper position that she had already anticipated.

But in addition to long-range firepower, those ordinary miscellaneous merfolk had also formed an orderly outflanking formation and rushed towards Tina.

"Yang Yi, withdraw. This quest is more difficult than expected!"

Tina ran around the slum with her spear in hand, whispering through the communicator, "While they're still in chaos, you still have a chance to leave." ”

"Okay, you withdraw first. ”

Yang Yi replied briefly and briefly, and at the same time took out a few plasma grenades, opened the safety and threw them forward.

These Fish-Men...... Not an ordinary monster!

Although I saw the mission description before, I didn't pay too much attention to it, and always regarded these fishmen as the same monsters as common in previous dungeons.

But looking at their current performance, they have a clear organization and combat system, and even those chattering voices in their mouths are obviously their own language.

These fish-men are not stragglers, but high-quality troops!

The plasma grenade exploded in front of it, and the flames engulfed several fishmen who couldn't dodge, and also swept a passage for Yang Yi.

Anyway, this quest doesn't give any penalty for not being able to complete it, and now retreating is just not getting a completion reward, and it's not a big loss.

The two of them have been advancing and retreating together in the dungeon these days. Although they used to be the official combatants of the permanent team of Zero City, such a meager number was still too difficult. If they encounter a difficult enemy or a powerful dungeon monster, they will never be ashamed to run away.

Taking advantage of the gap when the plasma cluster burst out of the plasma grenade had just cooled and disappeared, Yang Yi had already rushed out of the encirclement. On the high ground in front of her, Tina ran quickly to distance herself from the pursuers behind her, while stopping from time to time to provide fire cover for Yang Yi.

But the crossbow bolts behind him are still coming, and the hit rate of hasty shooting in a standing position is bound to drop significantly. Tina fired thirteen shots, but only five fish-men were hit, and it was only the lowest-tier tuna fish-man.

Yang Yi was still running wildly, but the pursuers behind him were getting closer and closer.

Not only that, but more fishmen appeared in front of him, outflanking him.

Yang Yi gritted his teeth, took out three plasma grenades from the storage equipment again, thought about it, stuffed another one back, and threw it behind him.

When they left City Zero, they didn't have much equipment on them. In later days, there was not much to be earned. These plasma grenades are already one less than one.

Although the explosion slightly blocked the pursuers behind them, it was never able to stop them completely.

"You go first, and I'll catch up when I turn around. ”

Yang Yi jumped onto the roof of a shack and gasped into the microphone.

"If I'm gone, you won't be able to leave. ”

Tina firmly refused, took out a silk net as thin as a cicada's wings with her left hand, and threw it behind her. The mesh appeared in the air for a second, then vanished.

A few seconds later, the fish-men who were chasing at the front suddenly convulsed all over their bodies, stopped, and a large number of electric sparks came out of their bodies, turning into coke and falling to the ground.

But the net also flickered a few times and broke into pieces.

"If you stay, you will accompany me to death. You are dead, what should you do with your son?" Yang Yi's voice had some rare excitement: "Have you forgotten what you told me, no matter what, you have to leave a blood vein for Gibbs!"

"......" Tina was silent.

"Your husband is the hero of City Zero. Raise your children well. After Yang Yi finished speaking, he reached out and pressed the intercom and smashed it.

And he also stopped, looked at Tina on the high ground in the distance, and then muttered softly, "Goodbye...... The Flower of Rodria. The days of living with you are quite pleasant. ”

Only by this time, Tina's ears were left with the sound of electricity.

She quickly glanced at the pursuers behind her, and then at Yang Yi, who was already surrounded by almost all retreats in front of her, and sighed deeply, with determination in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Yang Yi. I know. But...... I'm sorry.

And also...... Thank you. ”

Yang Yi gently threw away the energy pistol, replaced it with two war knives, his body tensed, and stared at the fishmen who were swarming in front of him.

The hammerhead shark man who led the team was the one who was hit by Tina in the gill slit before, and seeing that Yang Yi had given up escaping, he no longer ran to chase after him, but strode forward, waving his arms to command the other fishmen to surround him.

Although the language is not clear, and the face is completely different from that of humans, the hatred in its eyes is very obvious.

"At least, kill you guy......"

Yang Yi pinched the hilt of the knife and stared at the hammerhead shark man.

Rumble!!!

A missile fell from the sky and smashed into the most densely populated area of the fishmen, interrupting the blow that Yang Yi was preparing to strike.

The few fish-men in the center were blown to pieces, and most of the others who came close were swept away by shrapnel and flames, making strange noises and rolling to the ground.

This was followed by more missiles and beams, spilling a sea of fire on the ground.

The sunlight in the sky, slightly obscured by the fog, cast a row of shadows at this moment.

Yang Yi raised his head suddenly, and what he saw was ten sentinel mecha flying at high speed in the sky!

At the same time, the loudspeaker of the Sentinel Mecha was also amplified to the highest power at the same time, and they all roared out the same sentence:

"Today, Zero City is reborn!"

This roar is full of impassionedness, full of glorious return, full of iron and blood unyielding!
