Chapter 12 Death is but a common thing
Seeing the hideous-looking insect again, Zhao Yi's scalp was about to explode, but despite this, Zhao Yi still followed the commander's instructions very well, and no longer wasted ammunition on cockroaches that could not cause damage with rifles, and instead aimed at the stinging snake, which was a greater threat to the marines.
Again and again, short shots tried to hit the stinging snake's stomach. However, the stinging snake is also very cunning and keeps its head down, pointing its bones at the soldiers, and protecting its most vulnerable areas with bone plates.
"Da !!"
"Woo Woo !!"
The sound of bullets coming out of the chamber, the sound of bone needles nailed to the steel fortress, the insects advanced steadily and rapidly under the continuous interweaving. Zhao Yi, who suppressed the stinging snake three times and twice, finally lost his anger at his shooting ability, and instead poured out his depression on the jumping insects that had been jumping.
Finally. The cockroach, which had walked to the middle of the bridge under human firepower, opened its mouth wide and spat out a mouthful of green juice at the human bridgehead.
This mouthful of thick juice is not an ordinary green liquid, but a strong sour saliva that is incomparably loud. With the help of the terrifying corrosive abilities, even a hardened tank or fortress can be easily corroded.
It was visible to the naked eye that the bridgehead that had been hit had sunk down, and the flames that had erupted from inside were suddenly mute.
"Stick to your post!"
Under the roar of the newly acquainted chief, Zhao Yi woke up like a dream.
The idea of wanting to escape for a moment was almost put into practice by him, but fortunately, with the morale bonus of the chief's [Roar], he endured the fear of death and continued to pull the trigger.
Two sharp claws pointed at the sky behind them, the pitch-black, metallic carapace was difficult to break through, and the gaping mouth mocked the stupidity and weakness of humans.
"Smack!"
The cockroach spat out a mouthful of green liquid again, drawing a parabola under the terrible pressure created by its internal organs, pointing at the collapsed human fortress in the distance.
There was no sound of metal corrosion that could drown out the roar of the bullets, but it was a shocking shock that could shock the heart. After the mask that can isolate the strong light that can damage the human eye filters the light, what is left for Zhao Yi is the faint light, the splashed dust, and the scattered corpses of jumping insects.
The shelling of the siege tanks finally came, albeit too late, after all, it was supported by heavy fire.
The smoke subsided in an instant, leaving only the shell of a dead cockroach and the corpses of two stinging snakes.
The cockroach that had just flaunted its might died under the shelling of the siege tank, and Zhao Yi, who was still in fear a second ago, was a great encouragement.
"Bang bang!"
Several jumping insects that had not yet fallen to the ground under the shelling launched a desperate charge against the human fortress from the other side of the bridge, shouting at the commander, "Shoot!" At the same time, Zhao Yi had already pulled the trigger.
A continuous storm of bullets connected into a fiery snake in the air, and with three other rifles, the desperate charge of more than a dozen jumping insects became a joke.
Fell to the ground and died, turning into meat sauce. A short but fast-paced clash ended.
The victorious side belongs to humanity, however......
"Head? Shouldn't we help them? ”
The fortress that was directly hit twice by the cockroach's acidic saliva looked crumbling, and they were still spraying flames a second ago suddenly dumbfounded, which made Zhao Yi slightly worried.
It's not Our Lady, it's just a worry.
"Hold your ground! Soldier! Insects can take over at any moment! The chief stared at the other side of the bridge, as if countless alien units would rush out in the next second.
Zhao Yi was speechless, clenched his rifle, and projected his gaze to the other side of the bridge.
"Don't worry, there will be medics on them in a moment, even if they can't help themselves."
The imaginary unit of the insect did not appear, and the medical unit quickly appeared, and they burrowed into the fortress, opened the doorway that was stuck under the corrosive liquid, and rescued the soldiers trapped inside. Only three appeared.
The battle armor of the three marines was more or less corroded by the corrosive liquid, and the moment they were rescued, one of them rushed back into the fortress that was about to be abandoned, pulling out some strange fragments.
Armor, rifles, limbs. Odds and bits of things.
Zhao Yi wanted to vomit, he turned his head to the side, looking at the houses burning in the distance due to the destruction of the insects, and the cry of the soldier who had been accompanied by the wail around the soldier in his ears.
"A soldier is gone." The chief muttered, "It is estimated that the attack of the insects will be more violent, and we will have to defend another line of defense." ”
What the Commander said was absolutely correct. It was only half a minute before his words fell, and the commander received an order from his superiors.
Hold on until the siege tanks blow up the bridge and retreat in the second direction.
It is impossible for the naked eye to detect the shells that they are slicing through the air falling on the bridge, and the shells that can easily blow cockroaches into powder are a little powerless against the building. But with a few more bombardments, the solid bridge should have collapsed.
In an instant, Zhao Yi and the others officially received the order to retreat.

"Warning, seismic movement detected, tunnel bugs have appeared."
With the escort of Viking fighters, there is no longer a single alien dragon swaying in the sky, and the imperial commander's mouth is about to smile crookedly, and while dreaming of being promoted and making a fortune, he is also cheering up the soldiers under his command. However, when people are happy, they are prone to misery.
Tunnel bugs? How long has it been since the insects attacked the planet?
At the same time that the commander almost shouted in his heart, a cold sweat broke out all over his body.
Of course, he learned well and refused to arrange the direction immediately, because the last time he detected the alien airdrop bag, he chose to deploy on the spot, and he was almost trapped in place by the alien insects.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to stay mobile and be able to fight and run?
"Sir, there are a lot of signals on the radar, presumably Xenosaurus. My brothers and I went to chase them away. ”
The voice of the Viking captain came from the communicator in his ear, and the commander stared at the screen after allowing it.
The field lieutenant quickly marked the seismic movement on the screen, and the commander was overjoyed when he looked at it.
The Tunnel Worms will appear away from the marching route, and when the Tunnel Worms appear to send out their Worm troops, they will set up their tanks and wait to harvest the heads.
The commander ordered to defend in place.
