Finale: When Hell Comes to Earth (26)
Under Liu Yuxin's response, the 404 Logistics Regiment successfully joined them without much effort
"We've been stuck in this place because of too much baggage and a serious shortage of manpower, so it's great to meet you at this time!"
Only then did Lei Qing notice that the other party's mecha did not hold weapons, but were used as a power source to drag huge carriages
"That's?"
Facing Lei Qing's puzzled gaze, the other party said apologetically
"We've been tasked with setting up a small supply depot here for elite warbands, and for the rest of the matter, the expensive equipment used to maintain mechs and psychic outfits can't be discarded under any circumstances. So I can only bother you to escort us back to the rear."
I see!
Lei Qing's face showed a look of understanding, each set of equipment that could comprehensively maintain the mecha and spirit suit was worth a lot, no wonder they were here to wait for help.
The person in charge of the construction team paused and said hesitantly
"It's strange though, that no one has been able to handle our request for support, and we don't know how long it would have been if we hadn't met you."
It's not just that he can't connect to the headquarters!
Lei Qing's shocked expression was immediately captured by the other party
"You ...... too"
"Yes, we have also lost contact with headquarters."
Seeing the chaotic appearance of his own side, combined with the fact that the defending forces never called for a covering strike after the start of the battle, Lei Qing was sure that the entire front line had lost the coordination of the top level. Infantry, mechs, warships, and other long-range strike units are all fighting on their own, which is why the front-line forces are defeated.
Lei Qing no longer hesitated, and used the terminal to project the tactical map
"More than fifty kilometers behind is our outpost, maybe we can get accurate information there, I think we had better hurry up and rush over immediately!"
Lei Qing's suggestion was recognized by everyone, and the team embarked on the journey home after a little reorganization.
On the way back to the base, this unit continued to rescue friendly troops besieged by xenomorphs, and the number of people had increased several times before the journey was halfway through, which caused Liu Yuxin's concern.
The growth of the team made them more eye-catching in the eyes of the xenomorphs, and many xenomorph groups no longer left in ashes after dropping a few corpses like the xenomorph groups they had encountered before, but were far away behind the team waiting for the opportunity to have a full meal, and Liu Yuxin even found many high-level xenomorphs in it.
Another problem is the supply of ammunition. Although they collect along the way, with the increasing frequency of xenomorph attacks, the cost has become much higher than the harvest, and if they continue like this, they will become a herd of lambs to the slaughter because they have no weapons to use on the way.
"Director Lei, if we continue like this, we will be wiped out!"
Liu Yuxin expressed her worries.
How could Lei Qing not know that there was only one way to die if this continued? But when you encounter an Alliance soldier calling for help, you can't just turn a deaf ear and walk away!
"Director Lei, let's do it, my individual combat ability is relatively strong, I will break through to the base first and then bring someone back to meet you"
Regarding Liu Yuxin's proposal, Lei Qing thought about it and felt that this was indeed a good way. According to King Kong's extreme speed, the journey of dozens of miles can probably be reached in about half an hour, and then return with support and supplies, which is much more reliable than how many supplies they can pick up on the road by betting on luck.
"Then be careful all the way!"
Lei Qing thought about it again and again, and finally adopted Liu Yuxin's plan, and solemnly told Liu Yuxin after the logistics staff prepared King Kong.
Liu Yuxin made a reassuring gesture to Lei Qing and was about to set off.
"Liu Yuxin......"
Nangong Qian in the crowd wanted to speak and stopped, she was not completely ignorant, knowing that Liu Yuxin's departure was related to the survival of the entire team, and she was no longer willful.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
Liu Yuxin turned around and waved her hand at Nangong Qian, and rushed out with a heavy sword in her hand.
In the face of this heavy mecha, which was obviously very difficult to provoke, the xenos who did not receive clear instructions avoided one after another, and even a few particularly bold and reckless roadblocks were all split in half by Liu Yuxin one by one.
Ruthlessly ignoring the soldiers besieged by the aliens along the way, Liu Yuxin arrived at the outpost within the scheduled time. Not surprisingly, as the only large stronghold and supply base in the vicinity, it was home to a large number of soldiers who had retreated from the front line and the xenos that followed.
When Liu Yuxin arrived, the two sides were engaged in a fierce exchange of fire, and a large number of alliance units were relying on the cover of the alloy wall to shoot at the xenomorph army composed of mutant beetles, alien beasts and some earth-digging beasts below.
Liu Yuxin, who was hiding on the side, waited to observe for a while, and found that the xenomorphs that had been wandering aimlessly nearby began to expel nearby creatures, and Liu Yuxin's heart moved and continued to lurk.
It didn't take long for a group of xenos to quietly carry a large short-legged xenomorph along the ravine and place the powerful remote bug, which was 80% of its body cavity in acid sacs, in a wood.
Acid Beast!
This giant xenomorph Liu Yuxin also happened to have seen it in the first mission, and at that time, he also pestered Shen Hongbing to ask a bunch of questions out of curiosity.
Xenos are going to carry out a covering strike on the outpost!
Liu Yuxin didn't know if the people in the base had countermeasures, and if this wave of venom was covered without preparation, the base would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Sensing that the acid beast in the woods began to contract its abdomen, and the green acid juice was squeezed up, Liu Yuxin knew that she couldn't wait any longer, so she jumped out of hiding and threw the heavy sword in her hand at the head of the acid beast
"Poof~"
The heavy sword shaved off part of the acid beast's head, and the squeezed acid sprayed out of the wound along with its body fluids, and the falling acid corroded the trees within a radius of a hundred meters and quickly lost their vitality.
After doing all this, Liu Yuxin took advantage of the fact that the xenomorphs had not come back to their senses, and rushed towards the base with their limbs, breaking through the xenomorph interception for several kilometers, and it didn't even take three minutes to intercept.
"Open the door!"
To Liu Yuxin's surprise, under the wall, he actually heard a familiar voice
"Shi Lei? It's you! How did you end up here? ”
Liu Yuxin looked up at the familiar figure above and asked in surprise.
Since separating from the supply base one day, he has not heard from Shi Lei, and he didn't expect to meet in this way in this bad form.
It's no wonder that this base can stand like a mainstay in the xenotide tide!
The performance of the Ice Emissary, Liu Yuxin, who was fortunate enough to drive it, knew very well that with enough mental power, no one except the legendary creature could do anything about it.
"Let's talk about it first."
Shi Lei's warm voice was like a gust of spring breeze, which calmed Liu Yuxin's restless heart a little. With Shi Lei's existence, there is no difficulty in picking up Lei Qing and them.
Liu Yuxin entered the base in response and began to tell Shi Lei what had happened to them.
"Oh, I see, don't worry, the xenomorph elites are all somewhere else, and it's not too difficult to bring them back."
"The elites are somewhere else? What do you mean by that? ”
"These are some speculations made by Suzuki's director in light of the current situation, and it would be terrible if it was true! Let's hope she's misjudged this time......"
Shi Lei obviously didn't want to say much about this matter, so he immediately diverted the topic
"After the last separation, I was transferred to Zone G. Some time after the battle began, I discovered an anomaly in the Alliance Command, and after confirming that I couldn't get in touch with them, I connected to the 521 line and discussed some countermeasures with Minami Suzuki, and then came here to meet you. ”
Zone G! There are two war zones separated from here! It really took a lot of time for Shi Lei to trek here in the tide of xenos.
Liu Yuxin immediately understood why there were so many Alliance soldiers in this outpost.
"Thank you!"
Liu Yuxin sincerely thanked Shi Lei, whether it was because of Sister Ling's assignment or because of his own reasons, being the first to think of himself when there was an accident made Liu Yuxin feel extremely warm in her heart.
"You're welcome!"
Shi Lei chuckled
"Time is pressing, Director Lei, they are still waiting for us to answer! Wait a minute, I'll go get ready. ”
Since there are many people here who were rescued by Shi Lei, his prestige here is very high, and it didn't take much time for Shi Lei to put together a team of dozens of vehicles and hundreds of fighters.
Liu Yuxin was overjoyed by Shi Lei's efficient action, and every minute they set off in advance, they had one more chance to pick up Lei Qing.
The imposing team walked out of the base under the watchful eye of the xenomorphs. The xenomorphs besieging the base had obviously suffered enough of Shi Lei's losses, and seeing them pull out of the base in a mighty way, none of them thought of stopping them, and the group entered the reckless plain under the welcome of the xenomorphs.
With the Ice Bringer's team unstoppable, no alien species of any kind could stop them from advancing even half a step.
Later, those aliens had cultivated a tacit understanding, and as long as they saw them, they felt far away, which made Liu Yuxin feel that she was going out on an outing with her parents......
In this way, after walking more than 20 kilometers without wind and waves, Liu Yuxin, who was doing nothing, suddenly heard Shi Lei's wry smile
"Trouble is coming!"
Liu Yuxin, who didn't know why, immediately raised her perception to the extreme, and what Shi Lei could call troublesome would definitely not be an ordinary cat or dog.
Under Liu Yuxin's desperate search, a blue and white plane flew over crookedly, like a drunk who was about to fall unconscious.
Isn't this the LX620001? What's wrong with it?
Just when Liu Yuxin's thoughts were turning, LX620001 fell in front of Shi Lei
"Thank goodness for finally making it here! Shi Lei, I'll leave the rest to you, I can't handle it at all! ”
Before Liu Yuxin could understand what was going on, in an angry roar, three scorching flames erupted from a distance.
