"This is the fifth encounter. ”

"Other forces have fought the mantis creature four times before. ”

"So far, we've eliminated about three hundred mantis creatures. But there are many more praying mantis creatures hiding inside the caves. The number cannot be estimated. ”

"Caves?"

"That's right. They all come out of the cave. ”

"What kind of cave?"

"There is no law for the time being. It's all randomly distributed. Anomalous. ”

"Have you found the location of the cave?"

"Only one was found, very deep. ”

As he spoke, a loud noise was heard in the distance.

Immediately, a huge mushroom cloud rose up, and the ground shook violently.

The shock wave can be felt even through the Bull Demon King's transport plane, which can be said to be very strong. It's heart-wrenching.

Wang Bu'an conservatively estimated that the power of the explosion was at least five tons of TNT.

"It's an engineering unit blasting. Cheng Kailong said in a deep voice.

"Does it work?" Li Mu was eager to try.

"I don't know. Wait for a message to come from ahead. ”

"Okay. ”

The crowd waited patiently.

The message was not long in coming.

The blasting was successful.

But the effect is not great.

At present, a pit of 80 meters deep has been blasted.

But the mantis creature's cave is still endless. It feels like it's at least a few hundred meters deep.

The Qiangtang area is actually the northern Tibetan plateau. The ground is all permafrost. In some places, the thickness is as high as tens of meters. Even hundreds of meters. The use of explosives on such special terrain is very unsatisfactory.

Permafrost is a very peculiar existence. A mere explosion is very difficult to destroy. Only with sufficient heat can it be melted.

However, as it stands, there seems to be no better way than blasting.

"Currently trying to roll the bomb in. ”

"Hopefully it will work. ”

Sure enough, not long after, there was another series of loud noises.

Everyone could clearly tell that it was the sound of heavy bombs exploding deep underground.

Wang Bu'an even accurately estimated that this was a 500-kilogram bomb.

Soon after, information came.

Unfortunately, it still didn't work very well.

The burrows of praying mantis creatures are too deep. The bomb that rolled in was also blocked by obstacles. Can only be blasted outside.

The praying mantis creatures that appear on the ground also don't care about the burrow.

They continued to pounce on them without fear of death.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

Suddenly, countless rockets fell from the sky.

But it was groups of Sword King Dragon helicopters that came to reinforce them. The rockets hit the bullets even more intensively.

Another Sword King Dragon helicopter directly dropped heavy bombs.

A deafening loud bang completely shattered the remaining mantis creatures.

These aerial bombs are often hundreds of kilograms, and the power is not a joke, and they directly annihilate the mantis creatures.

Soon, on the ground, there were no mantis creatures.

The Sword King Dragon helicopter landed slowly.

Army Special Forces ......

Airborne Forces Special Forces ......

There are also rapid reaction forces from the Western Theater of Operations......

Everyone is on standby.

The battle is over for the time being.

The ground is clean for the time being.

The transport plane forced its landing.

Xia Nan liked this trick the most.

The Bull Demon King transport plane also adapted to this trick.

It is not afraid of explosions.

It has no fuel.

The belly is also specially reinforced.

The muscles and bones made of six-grade cemented carbide are not afraid of the impact of the ground at all.

No, it forcibly cut a trench in the ground that was three or four meters deep. The Bull Demon King's transport plane fell deep into the trench.

Wang Buan and the others all left the transport plane from the exit at the top of the transport plane.

The Marines immediately took up a combat stance.

"Whoa!"

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, the ground cracked nearby.

Immediately, a large group of praying mantis creatures came out of it again.

Wang Buan's eyes flashed.

Boy.

That's a lot.

At a glance, there are more than thirty.

Their body size is more than one meter tall and more than two meters long. The most obvious are the two sickle pliers, heavy and sharp.

Needless to say, if an ordinary tank encounters them, they can be torn apart.

These two scythe-like pliers are not to be underestimated.

The skin on the surface of the praying mantis is also very thick.

Faintly, there is some metallic luster.

No wonder it was able to block the bullets of the ninety-five rifle......

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

The coiled dragon sniper rifle fired.

Li Mu and the others are all experienced in a hundred battles, so they will not be afraid.

You send it to the door, and they happen to be in a big way.

The praying mantis in front of it fell in response.

Everyone was slightly stunned.

Hey?

So simply?

Knocked down with one shot?

It feels a little incredible......

Cheng Kailong looked at Wang Bu'an, and then at the sniper rifle that had just fired.

Sure enough, it was extremely powerful.

The bullet pierced the target's body.

"Go on. ”

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

The Panlong assault rifle also fired heavily.

The praying mantis creatures that tried to pounce fell one after another, feeling as if they were cutting straw.

In an instant, more than thirty praying mantis creatures all fell.

Everyone was relieved.

Meddlesome.

Great good thing.

It seems that those praying mantis are not unkillable.

As long as the guns are powerful enough, they can also be killed.

For example, the Coiling Dragon Sniper Rifle can easily kill them.

Everyone moved forward cautiously step by step.

They surrounded the corpse of the praying mantis.

Wang Buan also came up.

Examine the so-called "extraterrestrials" carefully.

Outcome......

A body blow......

Actually, there is nothing remarkable.

The most powerful thing about it is actually the outer layer of armor skin, which feels harder than metal.

The bullet penetration of the ninety-five rifle was not enough to penetrate this layer of armor. So it can't do fatal damage. But other weapons won't.

Because inside the metal armor, it is actually a very fragile body. It's also a similar ** structure.

**It also contains a lot of organs. Shapes and sizes.

If these organs are hit, the mantis creature will die.

Or maybe it's a powerful shockwave from outside that shatters these organs, and the mantis creature dies.

So......

This is not an alien creature.

Or rather, very weak alien creatures.

There is no way to compare with Transformers, Nameks and the like!

No wonder Transformers don't take it seriously.

No wonder we humans are still the overlords of the galaxy.

Just because of such an alien creature, they want to invade the earth, but they are just here to send people's heads......

Wrong......

Not a human head......

It is the head of the praying mantis.

"Forward. ”

"Forward. ”

Cheng Kailong personally led the team.

The finished glyph of the three special forces unfolded.

Alternately cover each other.

Wang Buan obediently returned to the transport plane and stayed.

He can't go down to the ground just yet.

He only has the power to observe.

Cheng Kailong and the others were impossible to let him personally participate in the war.

He only needs to have first-hand knowledge of the mantis creatures. It is impossible to take risks alone.

The main reason is that the praying mantis creatures are too strong in their burrowing ability, and they are caught off guard.

If he leaves the transport plane without permission, he will definitely be caught by Xia Nan, a stunned man.

Finally, Wang Buan was finally allowed to land.

But the ground has been cleared.

"Chief Engineer Wang, is that you?" someone shouted happily.

"Huh, Minister Huo?" said Wang Bu'an unexpectedly.

It turned out that it was Huo and his party who exchanged loudly.

He actually came, too.

Huo and his entourage had a lot of people around him.

Including a front-line commander-in-chief, with the rank of lieutenant general, called Huang Nanpu, was the deputy commander of the Western Military District.

This time, the mantis creature unexpectedly appeared, and the first to react was the troops of the Western Military Region. They know the most about the mantis creatures.

Simple courtesy on both sides.

Subsequently, a lot of experts arrived.

Mainly experts in biology.

They're here to study the genes of these mantis creatures.

Huang Nanpu's staff officer gave a briefing on some basic information.

At first, no one expected it to be a praying mantis creature. It is that the water level of the lake has dropped significantly.

The Qiangtang area, known as a no-man's land, has a lot of plateau lakes in the territory. They are like pearls set on a beautiful plateau, and they are very pure.

According to the Tibetans, the Qiangtang area is full of sacred mountains and holy water. Mount Kinabalu is a snow-capped mountain. Holy water is a lake that is more beautiful than pearls. These lakes have not dried up for thousands of years. However, in recent times, the water level has generally dropped, which is unsettling.

Local herders have been dispatched to find out why. As a result, the mantis creature was accidentally discovered.

These praying mantis creatures popped out of the ground out of nowhere.

"Thankfully, they don't move fast. ”

"They can't catch up with the herders' horses. There were no casualties. ”

"These praying mantis creatures have very strong defenses, and small-caliber bullets can barely penetrate them. ”

"At present, we can only rely on the large-caliber machine guns of helicopters, as well as rapid-fire guns, rockets, shells, bombs and the like to kill and injure. ”

"But these praying mantis are very capable of burrowing. They may have made very complex caves underground. ”

"A total of five caves have been blasted so far, and nothing has been gained. ”

That's all there is to the basics.

So far, there have been no casualties.

The main reason is that the Sword King Dragon helicopter came too fast, the firepower was too fierce, and there were many of them.

Wang Bu'an reserved a lot of weapon interfaces for the Sword King Dragon helicopter, and now, all of these interfaces have come in handy.

A Sword King Rex helicopter is simply a mobile arsenal of weapons.

Apache helicopters only 16 rockets.

However, there are more than 144 Sword King Dragon helicopters.

And that's not counting the other ammunition. Rockets alone can unleash an overwhelming momentum.

Although the power of the rocket itself is not great enough. Dozens or hundreds of Sword King Dragon helicopters swarmed up, and the mantis creatures would definitely not be able to hold it.

So far, there have been more than 800 Sword King Dragon helicopters mobilized in the Qiangtang area, and they are on guard in turn.

At the same time, there are also a large number of Tyrannosaurus Rex helicopters and Bull Demon King transport planes responsible for transporting ammunition.

"What is our mission?" asked Li Mu impatiently.

"Catch it alive. Cheng Kailong said in a deep voice.
