Chapter 981: Defenses
As a result, as many as 800,000 infected people were killed in this operation, which was a little more than one-tenth of the infected group.
The vast majority of them are common infections, and only a small fraction are mutated infections.
Although it seems that the results of the battle are relatively objective, in fact, there are still more than 6 million infected people, and the threat has not weakened.
Without the obstruction of Lu Jun and others, the advance speed of the infected body group is significantly faster.
While marching, the corpse controller also constantly adjusted the formation of the infected group, such as placing nearly two million ordinary infected people at the front to act as the first echelon.
Most of these infections are D-rank, or even non-ranked, and they are almost "defective products" that have failed to evolve, and the corpse controller intends to use them as cannon fodder to absorb the first wave of firepower.
The second echelon is composed of hundreds of S-tier tyrant infectees, nearly 50,000 B-tier double-hammer infected, and 300,000 C-tier elite infected.
They are all mutant infectives, and their strength is more than a hundred times stronger than the two million ordinary infectates in front of them, and all the tyrant infectates in the entire infected group are here.
You must know that there are as many as 7 million infected people, and there are only 100 tyrant infected people, which is enough to show how difficult the road of evolution of infected people is.
The purpose of placing the Tyrant infected in the second echelon is also clear, that is, to let them serve as the main force of the attack.
After all, there are a lot of A-rank dinosaurs in the road army, and only the relatively strong tyrant infected body can compete with it.
The number of infected individuals in the third echelon is relatively small, consisting of tens of thousands of A-order lickers, tens of thousands of A-order infected bodies with green hair, and 50,000 C-order elite infectees.
If Lu Jun is here, he will know that this is another new mutant infected body, and the name is the Rift.
The Rift-Mouthed is about the size of an elite infected, with no lips or teeth on its muzzle, except for its green hair, which looks like a round cannon muzzle from a distance.
It also has a special ability to spit out a strong acid from its mouth, capable of covering a range of five or six meters.
The distance of the spit is one hundred meters, which is twice the fifty-meter attack range of the Licker.
If the attack of the licker is monolithic and has a certain ability to control, then the attack of the ripper is range, each with its own characteristics.
The third echelon of the two infectants also takes on all ranged attacks of the infected, and is capable of attacking enemies from great distances.
Elite Infects, while not having ranged attacks, can act as "turrets" for Lickers and Rifts.
In layman's terms, lifting the two infects will give the Licker and Ripper full vision and can attack enemies farther away.
It also provides protection for Lickers and Rifts, as these two ranged attacks are too vulnerable to infections.
The fourth echelon is still composed of ordinary infected people, but these ordinary infected people are all of the C rank, and the number is about 3.5 million, and the overall strength is obviously several times stronger than the ordinary infected people in the first echelon.
Their mission is simple, to act as a reserve army, to wait for the normal infected in front of them to die, or to go wherever they need to.
As for the Blackthorn Infect and the Diggers, they didn't stay in the echelon, half on the flanks and half underground, a little separated from the battlefield, and it is estimated that the corpse controller intended to let them launch a sneak attack when necessary......
And the corpse controllers are not to mention, they are hidden so deep that they cannot be seen everywhere.
From an objective point of view, the arrangement of this infected group is very reasonable, and the melee long-range protection is available, and the number is huge.
If you look from a high place, you can see that there are groups of infected people within a radius of nearly 20 kilometers, densely packed and crowded with each other.
Especially when the overall formation is arranged, the various echelons of the infected body group will be more open, and there will be no problem in attacking and retreating.
Even before the end of the world, when the human army had all kinds of weapons, it would be difficult to deal with an infected group of this size, after all, there were too many of them.
Not to mention that all weapons cannot be used after the end of the world, and humans don't even have decent cold weapons.
Although the existence of supernatural beings makes humans stronger as well, the number of supernatural beings is too small to deal with so many infected people.
If it weren't for the fact that there were many orc warriors and dinosaurs in the Road Army, it would have been a fool's dream for the rebels to resist the infected population......
An hour and a half later, the first echelon of the infected group finally arrived two kilometers directly in front of the Zephyr Fortress.
From a long distance, you can see various strategic buildings in the fortress of Zephyr, the most conspicuous of which is the spiky watchtower standing around, there are more than 300 of them.
These were built urgently by the slaves in order to increase the fortifications of the Favonius Fortress as much as possible before the Great War.
Underneath the spiked watchtower are the fire guards and pull-out artillery deployed by the Route Army, as well as some reconnaissance guards.
There were even more of them, with 3,900 firepower, 2,100 artillery pieces, and 700 reconnaissance guards.
These things have been opened by the road army from the supply boxes of various levels for a long time, and if they are converted into dragon coins, it is estimated that they will cost nearly a million to buy.
The most spectacular thing is the giant protective device that envelops the entire Zephyr Fortress, which holds up a blue light that can resist all enemies from entering illegally, and the people of the Zephyr Fortress call it the canopy.
During the defense of the Zephyr Fortress, the canopy was broken many times, but it was repaired by the Route Army after the battle.
The reason is that the canopy needs to rely on hedron to maintain, and it takes energy to resist attacks, and the energy will shatter once it is consumed.
If it was the previous canopy, it was estimated that it would not last long under the attack of millions of infected people, and it would not have much effect.
Because the previous installations were all S-rank spars, they could resist attacks below the S-rank at most, and the overall situation was relatively weak.
But this time it was different, the road army upgraded the canopy, that is, it was equipped with a spar of the research rank, which could resist the attack of the research level.
This hedron was obtained by the Route Army when he killed the Destruction Guardian in the Wucang Domain, and it has been placed in the armament module, but I didn't expect it to play a role at a critical moment.
A canopy that can resist the attack of the research rank is also the confidence of the road army to defend the infected body, otherwise under the collective attack of millions of infected people, it is estimated that the Zephyr fortress without the city wall will not be able to withstand it for even an hour.
In addition to these defenses, the slavers urgently built a half-meter-high bunker in front of the spiked watchtower and fire guards, mostly made of cobblestone and rough logs.
This kind of high-level cover is very small and cannot stop ordinary infectants, let alone more flexible mutant infectants......
