Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Combatants and the Unfriendly

Xiao Yan, who returned with a full load, found an open place and contacted Luo Ze to pick him up.

For the sake of saving the Senate's life before, the Black Hawk helicopter that had already found the senator came quickly under the escort of the Apache helicopter gunship, and did not land, throwing down a rope for Xiao Yan to climb up by himself.

As soon as Xiao Yan grabbed the rope, Black Eagle immediately accelerated to climb the height and detached, obviously not wanting to stay in this place of right and wrong for one more minute.

"The side quest 'Rescue' has been completed.

Reward Effect: Exempt the penalty for failure in this main quest and increase the evaluation when the quest is settled. ”

When Xiao Yan and Luo Ze saw the prompt, they both began to think about the meaning behind the action of space.

On the surface, the rewards of side quests give them more choice, and they don't have to stick to the base, which is indeed a very valuable reward. But does such a change mean that sticking to the original mission objectives will be extremely difficult to complete in the later stages? In the case of the 7th Infantry Division entering the city to defend, is the original mission objective difficult?

Xiao Yan thought for a moment, and said to Senator Duncan: "Mr. Senator, tens of thousands of citizens have gathered in the city hall, and at such a critical juncture of survival, your existence will become a symbol of the Federation. Everyone will be convinced that the federal government has their back, and you are the right choice. ”

Congressman Duncan was stunned for a moment.

He originally planned to go directly to the base of the 7th Division, which was guarded by a large army, fully equipped, well defended, not to mention a field airfield, which could be evacuated to another place at any time if the situation was unfavorable.

"Yes! The Army has already sent two battalions of troops to establish a defensive line near City Hall. Coupled with air support, everyone will be very safe. What a smart girl Luo Ze was, she also reacted on the spot, holding the senator's hand and looking at him sincerely with her big beautiful blue eyes.

"Uh...... Hmm......" Duncan was a little embarrassed by the big twinkle eyes, and it was a little inappropriate to say that he was going to run away in front of a beautiful woman. And that's tens of thousands of voters after all! With their support and publicity, it is certain that you will be elected in the next election, and you can even try to win some important committee positions in the Senate!

If you really can't hold it, it's a big deal to call a helicopter to evacuate.

"That's right, as a senator in this state, I can't afford to leave the citizens behind." Duncan straightened his tie, "Major, let's go to City Hall!" Then contact the general, we need more reinforcements and weapons. ”

The refugee camp at City Hall is a temporary defense base based on the municipal building and Raven City Park, as well as nearby office buildings, shopping malls, and hospitals.

Soon after the zombie outbreak, the Raven City Police Department and citizens who had taken up arms quickly arrived here, quickly building a ring defense base with vehicles and engineering facilities. As more and more citizens have fled here to seek refuge, the town hall has become a formidable fortress in the midst of a horde of corpses.

Raven Park in the center has plenty of water and open lawns for refugees to rest, and although it is a bit crowded, it is not easy to have a safe place to sit at this time.

The Raven City Hospital building is located near the park, and together with several buildings such as Times Mall and Global Center, it has become the core of treating the wounded, isolating and defending.

In charge of presiding over these is Mayor Crassus. This Latino immigrant mayor is said to have had a very close relationship with the gang in his early years, and after becoming mayor, he was also very vigorous in implementing municipal projects. In the current crisis, Crassus's black-and-white advantages have been fully demonstrated, and a complete system of defense, treatment and isolation has been quickly established, which has been widely acclaimed.

When two battalions of the 7th Infantry Division arrived for reinforcements, the camp became more consolidated, and even had the spare strength to clear the zombies in two nearby blocks, extending the defenses on the east and west sides of the camp to the river, reducing the length of the line and increasing the space in the camp.

Now, with hundreds of thousands of citizens trapped in basements, rooftops and their homes waiting for rescue, Crassus sits in the town hall, occasionally giving orders to send out the few helicopters to rescue the survivors as much as possible.

When Senator Duncan landed, a team of elite soldiers from Revane's SWAT team was on a hospital helicopter to rescue survivors. When Mayor Crassus heard that the senator was safe and sound, he hurried to greet him with two of his men.

The journalists who did not die in the mouths of the zombies recorded this precious moment.

"You're glad you suffered, and the federal government will never give up on each and every one of you."

"We have no doubt about it!"

With their hands clasped together and the lights shining in countless flashes, the senator and the mayor waved to the reporters, expressing their determination to hold City Hall and the federal government's deep concern, encouraging everyone to continue to work hard to reclaim our beautiful city of Raven from the abominable zombies.

The two walked into the town hall hand in hand.

Heavy helicopters of the Union Army Aviation sent light field artillery and ammunition. The defenders quickly deployed the guns to open positions.

Before that, the camp had also been attacked by the Beholders. The formidable monster's strong defenses and resilience, as well as its terrifying throwing and killing, inflicted heavy casualties on the defenders, and even broke through to the rear of the defensive line at one point. Eventually, several desperate citizens of Revane rushed towards the zombie wrapped in C4 explosives, and were blown to pieces in an earth-shattering explosion.

With artillery support and a few Apache gunships, the defenders are no longer afraid of monsters like the Beholder.

Xiao Yan and Luo Ze did not join the ranks of defense, and were hesitating whether to go out with the search party or simply return to the supermarket camp, when suddenly the alarm sounded, and a large number of soldiers, policemen and civilians rushed to the south side with weapons.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yan grabbed a citizen and asked.

"Zombies! Tens of thousands of zombies! There's no end in sight! More than last night! ”

A tidal wave of zombies gathered from the streets and alleys and slammed down on the city hall's defenses.

Previously, some of the guards seized the tall buildings on both sides of the nearby street, and they refused to defend them directly, shooting down from the windows and roofs.

The light artillery that had just been set up also began to fire, and the shells exploded in the zombie horde, setting off a stump and severed arm.

"These brainless fools!" Two guards fired out with M4 rifles from two windows of the building down the street, one of them holding a cigar and shouting as he went, "Come on, die." ”

His companions were also in good shape, and the dense team of zombies almost made him miss a shot, shattering many skulls.

"Hey, you say, they're going to die! Tomorrow we ...... Ah, man! The companion shot for a while, and wanted to say a few words to exchange his thoughts on shooting, but he didn't expect to turn his head and find that the person next to him was gone.

"How......" Before he could finish his sentence, a sharp claw pierced his heart, grabbed him out of the window, and threw him down.

The poor victim was foaming at the blood, and watched as the ground got closer and closer to him, until he landed on top of the head of a zombie.

Countless mouths and claws tore at his flesh, devouring half of him in an instant, and the remaining half struggled to get up, dragging his broken limbs to join the zombie army.

Lots of lickers use their claws to climb between buildings, grabbing scattered guardians, eating them or throwing them to the zombies below. Soon, the outer lines of defense were lost.

"Get everyone back into the line!" The major, who commanded the defense, hurriedly ordered, "Kill those lickers with machine guns, and don't let them climb up." ”

On the formal defensive line, the defenders relied on the building to establish a three-dimensional firepower network. Moreover, the outside of the building of the formal defense line was a wide road, and the sneaky lickers could not sneak through quietly, and were beaten to minced meat under the interweaving of fire nets.

"How many people have been lost?" Seeing that the line of defense was steady, the major breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are thousands of people scattered outside the building, and no one has fled yet." The staff officer shook his head regretfully.

"Next time, we will set up a lookout post and send out more people. This time I suffered a scattered loss. The major turned his head to continue to check the situation outside the window, a few small black dots appeared in the distant sky, and the major held up the binoculars, "Is it our helicopter?" I remember that there was no take-off and landing arrangement, did you flee back? ”

The black aerial target seen in the telescope slashed at it with huge wings waving and its hideous mouthparts.

"Holy! No way! Anti-aircraft fire! The Major shouted at the Signal Corps.

The order was swiftly issued, and a great deal of fire turned to the sky to strafe fire. 7 and 8 Wyverns were so dexterous that they dodged between the buildings, avoiding direct fire and pounced on the buildings on the defensive line.

The soldiers who were desperately strafing behind the windows were knocked down by the monstrous trolls, and the shattered glass and bricks caused huge casualties. Several fire points were extinguished in an instant.

"Contact with firing point 181 is lost."

"All 3 platoons were killed."

In the front-line command room, nervous calls rang out everywhere. The Wyvern's assault cleverly avoided the interception of long-range firepower, and after getting close, he killed with his strong physique. After slaughtering an entire floor of defenders, the giant wyverns crawled down the outer wall into the next floor, continuing to kill the defenders inside.

The raided defenders were as fragile as toys in front of the dragon's claws and bonneous pincers, and often four or five people were cut in two by a sweep, and the scene was extremely bloody.

A wyvern struck the ground as it broke through the wall and swooped down towards the chaotic refugees in the park.

The frightened citizens who fled in all directions were trampled and bitten by this monster, and blood flowed along the way, and corpses were all over the ground.

The Wyvern is not a pure kill, special genetic modulation has cultivated it into a war machine, capable of automatically identifying high-threat targets on the battlefield. Soon, it spotted the artillery firing not far away and immediately rushed over.

The artillerymen spotted the wyvern rushing towards it and fled in all directions. The wyvern rushed to the vicinity and was ready to swing his tail pincers and sweep away.

Unexpectedly, a powerful force suddenly came, and it grabbed its tail firmly, and it couldn't move at all.

"I didn't think there were quite a few of you." Xiao Yan smiled and pulled out the battle axe.

Xiao Yan and Luo Ze hurriedly rushed over to reinforce this flying dragon after discovering it. Although these cannons have weak self-defense capabilities, they are an important means of maintaining a defensive line against creatures like the Eye Demons, and they must not be missed.

These wyverns do not have claws, and their attacks rely primarily on sharp tail pincers or bone wing sweeps. After Xiao Yan grabbed its tail, the wyvern could only flutter back and forth like a fish pressed to the ground, Luo Ze rushed over with a golden light, and struck hard at the wyvern's head, knocking it into green juice on the spot and falling to the ground.

Xiao Yan took out a bloody axe and beat the flying dragon with Luo Ze. It is worth mentioning that Luo Ze's attack can have a certain chance of causing the target's stun effect, and the first blow just now knocked the flying dragon to his stomach. It's just that the odds are not high and the duration is not long, otherwise you will be invincible in heads-up.

After slaughtering the wyvern, the two gathered around to see what good things dropped, and only a few generic points were dropped except for a bottle of A-virus crystals. Of course, the generic point is also very useful, and the two of them will be divided by adding two to five.

"Hey! That's our prey, stay still. Xiao Yan watched the jingling general point arrive, and suddenly a voice came from the side.

A small group of strangely dressed people gathered around and looked at Xiao Yan and Luo Ze.

……

"Well, we're not interested in this disgusting monster, feel free." Xiao Yan raised his shield to protect Luo Ze behind him, and slowly distanced himself from these people.

"Who wants this. Hand over the equipment and generic points you just got. One of the men in the lead shouted.

"Aha!" Xiao Yan nodded.

"I see." Luo Ze poked Xiao Yan's waist with his elbow.

"Hand over your equipment, and you can join my team temporarily." The man in charge took out a huge Vulcan 3-barrel cannon from his space and pointed it over, "I'm Arsenal, I'll take you through this mission if you obey my command honestly." ”

"Arsenal-sama is a veteran who has experienced four worlds. Before I met you, I killed a wyvern by myself. A contractor with a rifle flattered him.

"We've only experienced two worlds, so it's not fair to configure space like this." Luo Ze whispered to Xiao Yan through the spatial imprint.

"Are the others new except you?" Xiao Yan thought for a moment and asked.

"They're all rookies who have experienced two worlds." Arsenal said disdainfully, "You look good and how many worlds have you experienced?" ”

"It's two, too."

"Hmph, it's not bad to have this ability. Hand over the stuff. When Arsenal heard this, they immediately rolled their eyes in disdain, "Come and trade with me." ”

Xiao Yan and Luo Ze walked up slowly, "How to trade?" ”

"None of this! In your spatial imprint......"

"Bang!" Roze threw a punch before he could finish his sentence, and Arsenal were knocked back like a volleyball.

Without waiting for Luo Ze's flowing blonde hair to fall, Xiao Yan rushed out with a brisk step, raising a blood axe and slashing indiscriminately.

This arsenal is mainly based on long-range attacks, although being able to use the Vulcan cannon as a murder weapon shows that his strength is not low, but it does not mean that his physical strength and melee ability are high.

was hit by Luo Ze and Xiao Yan in a row, and the fierce-looking Arsenal was immediately beaten into a near-death state and collapsed to the ground.

The rest of the contractors were terrified. In their opinion, Arsenal is already very strong, but they didn't expect to be beaten into a dead dog without even having a chance to fight back.

"Your melee attack caused 19 damage to the Contractor's Arsenal (40% damage reduction has been deducted)."

……

Depend on!

Xiao Yan's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly stopped Luo Ze, picked up the arsenal and asked, "Is there any damage reduction in the attack between the contractors?" ”

"Spare your life, spare your life!" Arsenal are already on the verge of being beaten to death and can't stop begging for mercy.

"Answer my question."

"Yes, yes, there is a 40% reduction. Not only the contractor himself, but also the summons have the same effect! Other...... Don't kill me. ”
