Chapter Seventy-Seven: Assemble

"Sir, wake up, we must get out of here at once."

During Yang Jingzhong's confusion, he felt that his collar was being pulled back by a person, and a series of indistinguishable explosions sounded in his ears, and his neck seemed to be scratched by something, and a tingling sensation came from his neck.

The gas emitted by the mint candy in his mouth rushed straight to his brain, making Yang Jingzhong regain some sense.

However, as soon as he opened his eyes, he was startled by the sight before him - a spider jumped over him with a "swish" and directly knocked down the soldier who was pulling him.

The soldier only had time to pull out his pistol in a panic, but he didn't have time to put his hand into the spider's mouth like Yang Jingzhong did and the spider unloaded his entire right arm.

Yang Jingzhong's blurred gaze looked at the soldier, only to see that the soldier's eyes were full of fear of death, and he didn't seem to feel the pain from the wound on his arm at all. At the moment when he was about to scream, the spider bit his head off in one bite.

The corpse fell to the ground weakly, and the liquid squirting from his chest covered Yang Jingzhong's cheeks, preventing his eyes from opening properly.

"I'll grass your horse!" In addition to being frightened, Yang Jingzhong didn't care whether he could see it or not, he picked up the laser rifle and swept it in the general direction, and did not stop shooting until the muzzle of the gun was too hot.

He dropped his gun, pulled out a water bottle from his armoured backpack, and spilled it on his eyes, washing all the blood off his face.

Now he can really see what's going on around him. The spider he shot just now had completely become a dried corpse, and the corpse of the soldier under it had also become a mess of flesh, as if the spider had vented at the corpse before dying.

Not far behind him, the wreckage of the landing ship emitted faint black smoke, and nearly a third of the soldiers, including the pilot, died tragically in the crash.

In the vicinity of the landing ship, soldiers and spider corpses are intertwined, and it seems that there has been a big battle here before. According to Wolf's analysis, there was a spider patrol at the site of the ship's crash, and the spiders attacked the marines while they were still unconscious.

But the spiders also suffered a lot of losses, the desperate fight of the soldiers wiped out the spiders, and the remaining living spiders were also in a state of survival, and the spider that killed the soldier just now was actually seriously injured, with only five of its eight legs left. It's just that its killing instinct prompts it to take a heavy wound and deliver the final blow to the soldier, which also explains why the spider was so cranky.

"Wolf, are there anyone else around?" Yang Jingzhong touched his neck, the stinging pain from the wound made him gasp, looking at the traces of the wound, it should be scratched by some sharp weapon, fortunately, the wound is not deep, if the sharp weapon is a few centimeters closer, Yang Jingzhong will have to return to the base space station at this time.

"I don't know, the electromagnetic interference around here is very strong, and I myself may turn off at any time." Wolfe's voice was choppy, and seemed to be working very hard.

"Damn, I'll have to find it myself." Yang Jingzhong gritted his teeth and applied the medical gel to his neck, there was still an explosion in the distance, presumably there should be some surviving marines, as long as they met them, they should be able to find sea sharks and skuas.

He chose one direction, and on the whole, only that direction had the most dense light. Now that the direction has been chosen, the rest is left to the individual armor. The individual armor itself can rely on or not rely on the micro-brain to act under the condition that there is no human control, and the addition of the micro-brain has an additional function of automatic pathfinding and avoiding danger, but Wolf is now in a half-dead state, and it is unrealistic to want him to help, so Yang Jingzhong can only use the most basic automatic walking function.

Although this function can only go in a fixed direction, and it must not be able to avoid danger or something, but at present, Yang Jingzhong's spirit is really not very good, and it is impossible to walk over on his own.

Fortunately, Yang Jingzhong didn't see any insects along the way, except for some more dangerous places and other destroyed landing ships, and stopped and wasted some time.

"Sir, be careful, there's a lot of anomalous heat ahead." Yang Jingzhong was concentrating on the situation nearby, and the sudden sound in his head startled him.

"Wolfe? Aren't you suffering from severe electromagnetic interference and can't work properly? Why is it popping up again now? Yang Jingzhong was so nervous that he couldn't speak, and it was heartening to hear the news of the resurrection of his closest comrades-in-arms in this mysterious environment.

"The electromagnetic interference around here has dropped a lot, and my performance should work fine in this interference environment."

"Oh! By the way, I remembered that the area around the mother worm is indeed relatively much better, which means that we are getting closer and closer to the female worm. Yang Jingzhong patted his head, and said in his heart why he almost forgot about it, "Speaking of which, is the large number of heat sources you are talking about insects?" ”

"I'm not sure for the time being, but human-produced individual armor does a similar job of shielding infrared rays to insects, and I can't tell if it's a real bug just by the heat source."

"Then try calling them."

"No, even if the degree of electromagnetic interference in the vicinity has decreased, it is still an insurmountable obstacle for the communication system, and the use of communication equipment within the control of the mother worm will be the first time that the mother worm will know our location, do you think the worm will let us go unsuspecting and not catch it?"

"Then let's ......" Before Yang Jingzhong could finish speaking, a small ball-like thing flew over from a crack in the rock.

"Grenade! Flash! Yang Jingzhong almost shouted hoarsely, but fortunately, Wolf took the initiative to take over the individual armor after he woke up. As soon as the grenade was thrown, Wolf controlled the individual armor to flash behind a large rock.

"Wow."

With a slight vibration, Yang Jingzhong saw a beam of light spinning and flying overhead, and the stone that served as a cover instantly broke down into several large pieces, each of which was cut was quite flat.

"Grass, good guys, rich people use it differently, throwing laser grenades is like joking." Yang Jingzhong's neck couldn't help but shrink, if this thing hits his body, he can't directly cut people in half?

"Don't shoot, your own people!" Unable to use communication equipment, Yang Jingzhong could only yell through the loudspeaker into the crack in the rock.

"Is it the arbiter?" The crack in the rock opened a width that could only pass through one person, and a familiar sound came from behind the rock.

"Haha, Skuak, is that you?" Yang Jingzhong put the gun on his back and wanted to get into the gap with an arrow step.

"Be careful!" I don't know who shouted behind the crack in the stone, Yang Jingzhong was stunned for a moment, and a huge shadow appeared in front of him, it was a sharp-toothed flying locust! Its blistering speed and control over its own heat sources allowed it to evade Wolf's detection, and although Wolf's current state was not good, this concealment ability was truly amazing.

Yang Jingzhong subconsciously dodged to the left, and a sharp bone blade cut a crack ten centimeters wide and more than a meter deep in the place where he had been staying. He raised his gun and shot at the back of the locust, but because of the distance, the energy dissipated before the laser could hit the locust, and the locust could not penetrate the carapace of the locust during the mission.

The soldiers behind the gap rushed out and surrounded Yang Jingzhong. He put down his gun, and as soon as he turned around, he saw the skua coming out.

"How many troops are there here?" Yang Jingzhong took off his helmet, took the kettle handed by the skua and poured a big mouthful.

"More than two thousand, and twenty Black Cat-class armored personnel carriers. (The Black Cat-class armored personnel carrier, unlike the dwarf armored vehicles that only focus on mobility, the Black Cat-class can carry two squads of soldiers, and the armor protection has reached the level of the third-generation main battle tank, and the laser cannon equipped on its roof is of the same level as the destroyer's main gun, which can easily penetrate all ground bug shells except for the back of the electromagnetic beetle.) "The skua brought Yang Jingzhong into the "secret base".

"Hey, how did you gather so many troops, and this cave is too big......" Yang Jingzhong looked at the natural cave the size of five football fields, and the soldiers dug numerous shooting holes nearby, transforming the cave into a huge defensive fortress. And because the cave is basically surrounded by huge rocks, neither the electromagnetic beetle nor the shock insect can easily destroy this natural defensive barrier. However, Yang Jingzhong was more concerned about how the skuas gathered so many troops.

"Luckily, the landing ship I was on was not attacked by locusts, and as soon as I came down, I gathered more than 500 brothers, and I happened to find this cave again, so I relied on this cave to defend for a while, and used signal flares to attract other soldiers who landed around. What about you, is there any news of sea sharks? ”

Yang Jingzhong shook his head in disappointment: "No, our landing ship has suffered heavy losses, before I lose consciousness, the landing ship of the Sea Shark should not be damaged, but looking at the density of locusts near me, he should not be unscathed." ”

The two of them walked to the middle of the cave, where the skua had already built a simple topographic map out of gravel and sand.

"I saw an oasis in the vicinity, about a dozen kilometers away from us. From there, we can collect some usable water first, and look at the laser beams that pop up from time to time, there should be a team of allies stationed there, and if we can get there, we might be able to meet the sea sharks directly if we are lucky. "The skua marks a route on a topographic map all the way to the oasis.

Yang Jingzhong looked at the route, and from the topographic map, the route did not pass through any dangerous places, but he was afraid that a large number of insects would be encountered on this road.

"In this way, I take four hundred people and all the Black Cat armored vehicles, and at the speed of the armored vehicles, it should be possible to reach the oasis as undamaged as possible. You're going to stay here with the rest of you. Even if my troops are wiped out, there is still hope as long as you stay here. Don't worry, I'll bring you enough water when the time comes. Yang Jingzhong stood up and patted the dust on his body, "Without further ado, I'll leave immediately." ”
