Chapter 17

Where the three-story building collapsed, the ground trembled even more violently!

Cobweb-like cracks have also appeared in the ground around it!

These cracks continued to expand rapidly, and many humanoid monsters had already fallen into the cracks and disappeared before they could dodge them.

The cracks in the vicinity continued to spread, getting bigger and bigger, and they were spreading around the collapsed three-story building.

The two armored vehicles behind us also failed to escape, and both fell.

I watched the soldiers and armored vehicles who had not had time to escape fall into the cracks and disappear together.

The soldiers behind us began to run out in a panic, afraid of falling into the widening crack.

No one had time to fight back against the humanoid monsters behind them, and running for their lives was already the only goal of these soldiers behind me right now.

Facing the pursuit of humanoid monsters, it is like a group of people being chased by a tiger, not comparing who can outrun the tiger, but who can run slower.

If you run fast, you can survive, and if you run slowly, you can only be eaten by tigers.

And the cracks on the ground in front of you are better than the tigers, everyone wants to live, everyone can only choose to escape!

The ground not far behind me quickly cracked.

The crack was split from below to the top, and the nearby stones and dirt fell underneath.

At this moment, the crack in the ground is like a hungry mouth devouring everything around it.

Suddenly, a running soldier, his feet gripped tightly by the hands of a humanoid monster.

And the lower half of the monster's body had fallen into the crack.

The soldier was being dragged by the hands of the humanoid monster, desperately clutching at everything in front of him that could hold his body in place, like a person about to drown would grasp the last straw.

But it was all in vain, his body kept sliding into the cracks, and he looked up in despair and shouted in my direction: "Help me, help, come on, help me!"

I looked back at his desperate eyes, which reminded me of when I was tortured in the Security Service building.

It's just as desperate and helpless, how I wish someone could save me!

The panic in his eyes at this time was the same as when I touched it!

At the moment, I have only one thought in my mind, and that is to save him!

I shouted hurriedly at Commander Jiang: "Cover me, I'll go and save that soldier!"

Commander Jiang frowned, and hurriedly opened his mouth to dissuade me: "Hurry up! There is no time! You save him! Who will save you!"

I didn't look back, I didn't refute, I ran towards the soldier without hesitation.

With a submachine gun in my hand, I bent over, watched vigilantly from left to right, trotted quickly to his side, and shouted eagerly: "You grab the ground, I'll kill the monster that grabbed your feet first!"

He looked at me gratefully and said, "Okay! Thank you!"

His hands gripped the weeds and rocks around his body, trying not to let himself fall.

I ran quickly to his feet.

Only then did he see the humanoid monster grabbing his feet, and only one upper body remained.

The lower half of his body was already broken by whom.

A few feet are still under the body.

Without hesitation, I raised my submachine gun and pulled the trigger on his head.

The monster stared at me with hatred in its eyes, and then raised its two claws to block it.

Click......

After a dozen rounds of bullets, I smashed its claws and head.

I'm going to kick it over and kick it into the crack.

But before it could kick the monster, it had already turned into a puddle of white liquid and flowed into the crack behind it.

I hurriedly picked up the soldier with my hand, then turned around and ran desperately towards Commander Jiang.

Because the soldiers near me were busy running for their lives, no one was shooting, and I shot to save this soldier.

The loud sound of gunfire immediately attracted the attention of the fleeing humanoid monsters near the crack.

Hordes of humanoid monsters in the vicinity were running in my direction, and many crouched down and jumped towards me.

They were very fast, and I thought to myself: it looks like I managed to stab the hornet's nest again, and now I can only race against monsters.

I knew that I couldn't look back, and I couldn't care how many monsters were chasing after me, so I could only desperately pull the soldiers I rescued to Commander Jiang's side.

At this time, more than a dozen people around Commander Jiang were shooting at me in the back, and the red light of the bullets kept passing by me!

As long as a bullet misses or I don't stand still and falls to which side, I will be shot through by the bullet and die on the spot!

That's when I really felt that the battlefield was so terrifying, and life and death were just momentary choices.

The cracks in the ground around me were still expanding, and I got into the military open-top SUV with Commander Jiang and the soldier I had saved.

Battalion Commander Wu started the car and drove towards the forest ahead.

We were followed by a military SUV with six or seven soldiers sitting on it.

The rest of the way saw a lot of soldiers running in all directions, followed by hordes of humanoid monsters.

From time to time, soldiers are chased by monsters and brutally killed by humanoid monsters.

I wanted to raise my gun to help the soldiers cover, but the car was too bumpy on the mountain road, and I was afraid that if I didn't hit the monsters, I would easily injure them by mistake, so I had to give up.

In the car, the rescued soldier gratefully took my hand, and I could clearly feel his hand shaking.

He looked at me excitedly, tears kept sliding down the corners of his eyes, and then said gratefully: "Thank you for saving me, I thought I was going to die!"

I looked into his crying red eyes and explained to him: "It's okay, seeing you asking for help, I think of when I was in trouble, since I have the opportunity to save you, I will not give up." ”

The soldier held my hand tightly and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I would be dead by now!"

Commander Jiang looked at the soldier and asked, "What's your name? Which company?"

The soldier looked at Commander Jiang and replied with a serious expression: "Commander, my name is Zhao Xiaocheng, a soldier in the guard platoon, I have been in the army for more than 6 years. ”

After hearing this, Commander Jiang nodded and ordered, "Well, you will follow Battalion Commander Wu in the future." ”

The soldier named Zhao Xiaocheng saluted and said, "Yes, Commander." ”

I said to Zhao Xiaocheng again: "We are our own family, and my surname is Zhao, called Zhao Aoxiong." ”

"Life-saving benefactor, I didn't expect the two of us to have the same surname, my name is Zhao Xiaocheng, I see that you are not wearing a military uniform, are you here to visit the army? or which company?" Zhao Xiaocheng asked me curiously.

I looked at Zhao Xiaocheng and scratched my head, and said with some embarrassment: "Don't call me a life-saving benefactor, just call me Xiao Zhao, I'm not a soldier, it's you Commander Jiang who asked me to help." ”

Zhao Xiaocheng looked at me with a serious expression, and said to me seriously: "Oh, that's the case, but I can't call you Xiao Zhao, that's too rude, you are my savior, I'll call you Brother Xiong in the future, okay?"

I nodded my head and agreed.

At this time, the vehicle behind us was shooting at the humanoid monsters that were catching up from behind, and Commander Jiang turned back to me and instructed, "Pay attention to the surroundings, those humanoid monsters are chasing us." ”

As he spoke, he picked up his submachine gun and was ready to fight.

I also looked back at the back of the car, and there were quite a few monsters running towards us.

Because we were already in the mountains and forests, surrounded by trees and rugged mountain roads, our cars couldn't drive fast at all, but the monsters were very suitable for this kind of terrain, jumping left and right and chasing us, and they were about to make contact.

At this time, the surrounding trees and branches began to shake back and forth, and I noticed several humanoid monsters jumping nimbly on the trees and running towards us, and they were agile like apes jumping up and down the trees.

More and more humanoid monsters jumped up the tree, grabbing the branches with six legs and four hands, and quickly moved towards us.

I raised my gun and shot at the monster moving from the tree, and Commander Jiang and Zhao Xiaocheng around me were also shooting at it.

But our car was too bumpy, the mountain road was too rough, and the car kept shaking up and down, and I didn't even hit those monsters with a single shot, but my hands were almost numb with the guns.

The humanoid monsters in the trees began to jump towards our two cars, one behind us.

Commander Jiang hurriedly shouted at Battalion Commander Wu: "Turn around, the monster is coming down!"

Battalion Commander Wu was sweating profusely, and did not answer Commander Jiang, his hands quickly turned the steering wheel.

Our car jerked to the right, and a couple of monsters landed where we had just turned, and they landed and flew into the air.

Immediately, these humanoid monsters pointed in the direction of our car, bent over, and tried to jump on our car with all their strength.

Commander Jiang and Zhao Xiaocheng and I were desperately shooting at the nearby monsters with guns, and the monster that was chasing after us had already been beaten into a sieve by us.

I raised my gun and fired left and right at the monsters lying on the ground, and I couldn't hit them at all in the bumpy road conditions, but I only injured the four monsters behind me, but I couldn't stop them from jumping.

The car behind us had already been pounced on by the monster, because there were many tree roots on the ground, and his driver couldn't dodge left and right, and the whole car rolled and crashed into the big tree on the side.

It slammed into a tree, and in a short time flames burst out of the crashed car, and then the whole car exploded suddenly.

At this time, our car was also dodging left and right, trying to avoid the pursuit of monsters behind us.

The charged monsters jumped at them, and one of them grabbed the back bumper of our car with both hands.

The monster's feet were clutched at the ground outside the car, and it tried to hold our car with brute force.

Our bodies were still jolting, and we were so close to the monster that he was right in front of me.

Then I shot him in the head with my gun, and the monster saw that I aimed my gun at it, hooked it forward with the other two paws, and at once dragged the two iron seats behind the military SUV away.

Zhao Xiaocheng and I aimed at it and shot without hesitation.

Click!

A burst of gunfire erupted, shattering the monster's two front paws and head.

At this time, another monster jumped up and grabbed our front door.

Commander Jiang in the car was very calm, and quickly turned around and shot fiercely at the monster holding the door.

The monster was killed by Commander Jiang before he could climb into the car, and fell under the car and was run over by the wheels.

At the moment, the few remaining monsters were still running, chasing after our car.

Suddenly, a tree not far in front of our car fell straight to one side.

A roar echoed through the nearby forest in the direction of the fallen trees, and it turned out that two tanks were coming to our side.

The machine guns on the tanks spat tongues of fire at the monsters behind us.

The bodies of the monsters chasing behind our car were shattered in an instant, and the monsters that poured out of the direction of the square were still rushing towards the retreating troops in the forest.

Our military SUV continued to drive out of the forest, and the two tanks that had just rescued us followed behind us and covered us.

At this time, the artillery of the two tanks was turned to the rear.

Boom!

The air wave of the tank's gun barrel fire directly shook the surrounding dust and leaves into the air.

A dazzling burst of fire exploded from a few hundred meters away, and the monster in that location was directly blown up.

The two tanks behind him fired one after another at the dense area of monsters, and the monsters were caught off guard, and many of them had been blown up into liquid and disappeared before they could react.

Still, there were a lot of clever monsters jumping up the trees around us and jumping at us.

I yelled at the gunners on the tank, "Watch out for the trees!

They listened to me and started firing with machine guns into the surrounding trees.

Tree bark and branches were smashed everywhere, and the tremendous power of the machine guns broke more than a dozen large trees around them.

I thought to myself: This firepower is too fierce!

Although the fallen tree affected quite a few monsters.

But the humanoid monsters still rushed towards the tank desperately.

Our vehicles don't have to go around the bend to avoid because there are no monsters chasing us, and they are now driving much faster than tanks.

I looked back and saw that many monsters around me had jumped onto the barrel of the tank, and there were dense monsters rushing up from behind.

At this time, our military SUV suddenly turned left and drove away from the area.

I don't know what happened to those two tanks.

I knew that those two tanks would not end well, and I felt very uncomfortable, because people could save us and sacrifice themselves, but we couldn't save them.

I sighed heavily in my heart: "Hey!

Then I asked Commander Jiang suspiciously: "What about those retreating soldiers, they won't all die!"

"No, reinforcements have already been sent from above. ”

Battalion Commander Wu turned his head and asked, "Commander Jiang, should we still go to Mawei City, Suihai Province?"

"Well, hurry up and drive on the highway in a moment. ”

I asked Commander Jiang again, "What if those monsters run to Linjiang City?"

"It's all right! This kind of incident has happened before! Reinforcements should be coming soon!"

I continued to ask Commander Jiang, "How do you explain such a big earthquake and such a loud sound of artillery fire?"

Commander Jiang took out a smartphone from his pocket, handed it to me, and said to me, "You can read the local news yourself, and then you will understand." ”

I opened the news software on my phone and found the news column of Linjiang City.

It reads breaking news, the Earthquake Bureau monitored that a 4.0-magnitude earthquake occurred in Linjiang City today, with an epicenter depth of 12 kilometers, accompanied by many aftershocks nearby, the scale is very small, the earthquake time is short, and the surrounding residents do not need to panic.

Today, the garrison in the nearby mountainous area is also changing the guard on a daily basis, if there is an emergency, you can go to the city at any time to rescue, you don't have to panic, don't panic, please pay more attention to the forecast of the Linjiang Earthquake Bureau.

There are also messages from netizens below the news: Come on Linjiang City! Come on Linjiang people!

"All the people overcome the difficulties together, come on!"

"Small earthquake, no casualties, it's fine. ”

"The 4.0 magnitude earthquake is not big, it's just a fart shock, don't be afraid. ”

"The earthquake is ruthless, people are merciful, we all overcome the difficulties! Come on Linjiang City!"

I watched this news and understood in my heart what Commander Jiang meant.
