Chapter 69: Dawn Artillery Fire
Yes, while Carl was using the Starry Fire Phoenix, the last ten minutes had finally passed by the last second.
It's just that when Carl's fire phoenix energy ran out, the expected reinforcements did not appear, and Carl also landed on the ground again.
"Carl, you're amazing! I really didn't expect your trick to be so powerful! John laughed and hurried over.
But Karl frowned and ignored him at all.
"That's not right! John, the appointed time has long been over, but the base of Diesel has received reinforcements, and it still does not appear as agreed......"
Hearing this, John also reacted quickly, indeed, what about the reinforcements at the Diesel base? Didn't they all say that they would arrive on time?
"Oh no! The swarm has rushed up again! One of the Black Eagle warriors shouted as he pointed to the swarm of insects below the dirt slope.
Everyone had no choice but to raise the guns in their hands again and begin to strike powerlessly at the swarm.
The reason why they are called powerless is really because under a swarm of this size, their weapons are not as effective as they should be.
Under the slightly desperate gaze of everyone, the distance between the insect swarm was getting closer and closer, and the respite opportunity that Carl had just created with the starry fire phoenix turned out to be fleeting......
"This ...... Carl, do you want another starry phoenix? John sneered awkwardly, and at such a time, he could only expect Carl to be in a big swing again.
As a result, Carl also spread his hands when he heard it, and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, I can only use that trick once a day at present, even if I want to work hard, I can't use it a second time......"
"That's right......" John looked at the rapidly approaching swarm, sighed helplessly, and said in his mouth: "It seems that we people are going to be completely explained here today......
Carl gripped the blade of the wind gun tightly, but in fact, he had hidden something from the conversation just now.
That is, although his fire phoenix energy was exhausted, his own battle spirit power was still full!
If he were to solve all the swarms present, it would be impossible for him to do so.
But what if...... Carl used Shapeshifter to bring John, Leo, and White Spirit to safety, but there was no problem at all.
Although this kind of plan is not a very good choice, either morally or benevolently.
However, in this certain death situation, Karl was not willing to let the four of them die with these warriors.
Whether he is cowardly or cowardly, he just feels that if he has the opportunity to escape, then living will always make a greater contribution than dying!
Just as Carl hesitated, the first rays of sunlight finally lit up in the distance on the horizon, and the darkness on the entire land was completely dispelled by sunlight in this instant.
"It's dawn...... Carl and John, looking up at the sky at the same time, feeling the sun shining on the horizon.
At this moment, from the direction from which they came, a series of sounds like thunder sounded ten minutes away.
Before Karl could react, the insect swarm under the dirt slope was suddenly subjected to heavy shelling. Powerful cannonballs bloomed everywhere in the swarm.
The originally menacing insect swarm was completely defeated by the cluster artillery fire in an instant!
"I think I've heard this cannon sound somewhere!" John frowned and asked Karl questions.
Carl rolled his eyes helplessly, and said with great certainty: "Do you still need to guess?" This is the Thunder Tank! Reinforcements from the Diesel base have finally arrived! ”
"Really? Yeah! This is indeed the shelling of the Thunder Tank, hahaha! Reinforcements have finally arrived! ”
John immediately cheered happily, and as for the other survivors, they were already cheering.
"Great! We've finally made it to the arrival of reinforcements! ”
"Great! That's great! Long live the Imperial Sword! ”
Just as everyone was cheering, a large number of flying warplanes, with a piercing whistling sound, glided quickly over everyone.
"Holy! Big move, even the O'Connor fighter group has been dispatched! John shouted excitedly, and saw the group of O'Connor fighters, after passing through their area, rain down countless missiles on the swarm behind them.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The insect swarm on the ground, where could it resist such a strong artillery attack, and for a while, the insect swarm in the entire area had been quickly swept away.
Captain Zexi saw that the battle situation was decided, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down a little tiredly, and the two deputy captains of Greedy Wolf and Qingshan also sat aside with him at this time.
"Boss, this time we have finally completed the task, to tell you the truth, just one night, I don't know how many times I thought we were going to die this time!"
Qingshan smiled and admitted his previous thoughts very freely.
It was rare for the greedy wolf not to quarrel with Qingshan, even if it was him, in the last ten minutes before, he felt a burst of despair.
The kind of swarm that can not be completely wiped out is too great a test for the hearts of the warriors.
Not to mention those ordinary warriors, even if they are battle-hardened warriors, don't they also feel a burst of despair?
At this time, Leo and Bai Ling, who had been resting, finally regained a little bit of their ability to move at this time.
The two said hello to Joseph and walked over to Carl and John.
Noticing that the two were approaching, John immediately cheered happily: "Leo, Bai Ling, have you two seen it, we have finally succeeded in holding the position!" ”
Leo and Bai Ling nodded with a smile, while Carl stood with a smile on the side, and the consideration of that moment just now was completely hidden by him.
"Congratulations! You two have done a great job tonight! Leo scouted with compliments.
John smiled, and Carl congratulated him in the same way: "Without the light of recovery of the two of you, we would have been unable to withstand the attack of the swarm, and your credit may be even greater!" ”
Speaking of this, Leo suddenly smiled, nodded in agreement and said, "I don't know if this time, John and I can be promoted to a half-official position by virtue of merit!" After all, in the entire Fifth Team of War Spirits, the three of us have the lowest ranks! ”
"Oh! Yes, it's true that the rest of the team is at least a second lieutenant! Just the three of us, two corporals, and one sergeant, what a loss! ”
Bai Ling added with a smile: "Don't forget, I'm also a sergeant!" ”
"That's right! That's right, Sister Bai Ling is also a sergeant! No, why are they all lieutenants, we are non-commissioned officers! ”
John deliberately made a calculating expression, but it caused everyone to burst into laughter.
