"Attention! The machine gunners on the right advance, and the fire bats and raiders are responsible for covering the flank positions! "I don't know when Gu Cheng became the commander of the team, but now the Iron Monkey and the others obviously don't have time to worry about this, so according to what Gu Cheng said, they set up a formation and prepare to break through and surround them.

Unexpectedly, the fire method was attacked by the rushing swift beast, and a red ring of flame erupted from the center of his body, and like a storm, the nearby velociraptor beast was directly blown out at the same time, and it turned into ashes in the air without even saying a word.

Fire Magic's only life-saving skill, "Aura of Resistance", however, apparently drained his mental power as well, causing him to fall to his knees. And the swift beasts that came in the distance like a tide were overwhelming, without the slightest hesitation or fear, with that kind of madness, bloodthirstiness and ferocity!

Having used his only life-saving skill, the fire method had no choice but to watch the sea of insects engulf him.

However, just as this thousand troops were attacked, a beautiful figure blocked in front of her, and then after her graceful spinning dance (Death Lotus Blossom), the sword light and sword shadow in the sky attacked towards the fierce swift beast, and the "Death Lotus Blossom" became extremely brutal under the metamorphosis damage bonus of the scarlet blue double moon dagger, and dozens of veloc beasts were cut off in an instant, and then there were successive swift beasts pounced, and they all fell under the shadow of this sword light.

After solving the attack of the velociraptor beast, the fire method also took the opportunity to get up and said to Mo: "Thank you, thank you." ”

Mo just glanced at him, and went to the front line to help Gu Cheng break through.

Gu Cheng and Mo's tacit understanding, coupled with the fact that the attacks of the two were more outstanding, formed a sharp knife under the combination, and the other trio Iron Monkey, Iron Orangutan, and Iron Baboon each held one way, like two sharp daggers cutting a fish from the encirclement of the Zerg, and Huo Fa and Xia Wushuang assisted in breaking through on both sides under the protection of machine gunners.

Finally, a few minutes later, the Chosen and the Heavy broke through collectively and stormed into the pile of stinging snakes.

The Stinging Snake's ranged damage is high, but its close-range spitting is not as threatening as that of long-range spitting, at least many of the Chosen ones present can easily dodge these spitting skills.

As a result, the battle became a counterattack from the Chosen One, and when the battle was almost over, a pungent and fishy smell rose in the air, and there were broken stumps of stinging snakes everywhere. The demise of the 3 teams of Stinging Serpents also represents the victory of the Chosen and the Temporary Outpost.

There will be sporadic gunshots from time to time outside the city wall, that is the soldiers cleaning the battlefield to make up for the dying zerg, the corpses of the velociraptor under the city wall have been piled up to several meters high, forming a tragic flesh and blood slope, SUV driving the construction machinery skillfully remove large areas of it like shoveling garbage, digging pits, landfilling, and dealing with it has seemed to be in order, and it is easy to control.

When the last Zerg attacking the outpost fell, the Chosen ones also received a prompt from the system.

The Chosen One in the original temporary outpost received a system prompt to complete the side quest of [Guarding the Temporary Outpost].

And the system prompt that Gu Cheng and Mo received was to let the two lead the surviving plot soldiers back to the temporary base of the exploration team to resume their lives.

In the battle of the temporary outpost, in the face of two waves of insect onslaught, only 1 Chosen One, 13 Machine Gunners, 2 Pyros and 1 Marauder were lost, which was already a very lucky result. And to Gu Cheng's even more fortunate feeling, only 2 of the 13 machine gunners lost were brought by him, but 2 of the 3 flamethrowers were from his team, but this would not have much impact on the "Exploration" side quest in the career mission.

Because the side mission of the Iron Monkey and his party is to return to the first temporary base, and the side mission of Gu Cheng and others is to bring the plot soldiers of the outpost back to the temporary base of the exploration team. In other words, it is naturally impossible for the Iron Monkey and his party to take the plot soldiers away, but Gu Cheng can take advantage of the premise of bringing back the soldiers to take them to complete the side quest of "exploration" "by the way".

Bidding farewell to the Iron Monkey and his party, Gu Cheng and Mo continued to "explore" the side quest with the plot soldiers, encountering many lone Zerg attacks on the way, and the most intense encounter was encountering a team of velociraptors and 8 elite stinging snakes.

However, this is not worth mentioning at all for the troops with more than 30 soldiers in the plot, and Gu Cheng and Mo didn't even bother to do it, so the plot soldiers easily solved it.

Until the last source.

Gu Cheng looked at the endless yellow sand in front of him and frowned, and ordered the troops to stand by martial law in place.

Sam stepped forward and asked, "Sir, what's going on?" According to the system navigator on the mechanical armor, the last signal source is less than 1,000 meters away from us, as long as the coordinate flag is inserted, this exploration mission is completed, why don't we move on? This is a high incidence point of Zerg infestation, and it will be troublesome if you run into Zerg. ”

It was Mo who answered him, and she stared at the yellow sand in front of her and muttered, "Something is wrong ahead." ”

"Something is wrong?" Sam looked carefully for a while, but didn't see any clues, and then took out the military binoculars and looked at it for a while, but still didn't see anything: "Forgive me for not seeing anything wrong?" Please make it clear, sir. ”

Gu Cheng took out the telescope and looked ahead, pointed in one direction and said, "You stare carefully at a location." ”

Sam did as he had said, staring at one place and taking a closer look.

At this time, I saw a few hundred meters of flat yellow sand in the distance, a convex slope suddenly appeared, about a dozen centimeters high, but soon fell again.

Sam exclaimed, "There is an Zerg ambush!" ”

Gu Cheng glanced at him, and the look of disgust in his eyes, "Do you know that you are not a heroic unit that is good at dealing with the Zerg, why are you so unreliable" was self-evident.

Sam coughed in embarrassment and asked, "How did the chief find out?" ”

Mo Ze said: "There will be more or less the wreckage of Zerg or Terran soldiers along the way, but there is nothing here. Do you recall again, what do we usually encounter when we walk to such a yellow sand plain? ”

Sam was a little surprised, at first he looked down on this small, thin female warrior who was taller than him, but after a series of battles, he had completely changed his mind and had a sense of admiration for Mo.

At this time, he was even more surprised by Mo's observation, as Mo said, along the way, there will be more or less many Terran mechanical armors buried in the yellow sand, or the remains of the Zerg, once there is nothing in the yellow sand flats, there are definitely a lot of Zerg lurking in the flat land.

But this is not what surprised Sam the most, what surprised him the most was that a taciturn ink would patiently explain it to him? suddenly made him a little "flattered".

Gu Cheng also said: "Judging from the scope of this area, the number of zergs is no less than 3 teams, and it is very likely that there are many stinging snakes. ”

"What then?" Sam asked.

Gu Cheng thought for a while and said, "Push flat." ”

"Huh?"

"It's much more concentrated to have the machine gunners line up and push over than if we went straight in and faced the bugs that suddenly jumped out."

Sam was puzzled: "But as soon as we passed, the bugs rushed out, and it didn't make a difference, right?" ”

"No, I'll go with Mo first," Gu Cheng glanced at Mo, and the other party nodded at him, obviously having this intention; "She and I both have high-speed movement skills, we each lead the way, and then you take the rest of the soldiers behind to assist in the attack."

"Sir, are you going to be too risky?"

Gu Cheng said affirmatively: "This is the best way at present. Although there may be a lot of hidden zergs here, the open terrain is also suitable for us to lure. ”

"Okay, stay safe, the two chiefs!" Sam said, "If you can't do it, get out of here, and I'll get up as soon as I can." ”

"Good!"

Gu Cheng's words fell, he laughed wildly and entered a state of madness, and He Mo rushed into the yellow sand in front of him left and right.

Sure enough, the two of them had just run more than ten meters away, and the ground around them shook slightly, and then three or four meters to Gu Cheng's left, a convex slope suddenly appeared, and in everyone's attention, this convex slope was finally protruded by a huge stinging snake, and with the stinging snake, there were a large number of velociraptor beasts, and they chased after Gu Cheng as soon as they came out.

"Fire!" Sam, who was following behind, saw the bugs appear and immediately ordered to open fire on the soldiers.

Gu Cheng used the black and white twins to attack the stinging snake while running, but the rest of the velociraptor beasts were attracted to the rear because of the attack of the plot soldiers, and it was this stinging snake chasing Gu Cheng at present.

The velociraptor kept dying under the tongue of fire spewed by the soldiers in the plot, but the pressure of Gu Cheng and Mo did not decrease at all, as the two of them went deeper, more and more zergs crawled out of the ground, and the number far exceeded Gu Cheng's estimate of "3 teams".

However, fortunately, the combat units of the Zerg are still dominated by velociraptors, otherwise if there are a large number of stinging snakes, no matter how fast Gu Cheng and Mo are, it is impossible to retreat from the poisonous acid in the sky.

Thinking that the firepower behind them was a little unable to keep up, Gu Cheng and Mo both slowed down at the same time, and when Sam took the plot soldiers to suppress the number of Zerg to about 1 team, Gu Cheng and the others dared to continue to lure out the surrounding Zerg.

The battle lasted for more than half an hour, and the 7th squad finally managed to detect the last signal source with the loss of 2 machine gunners and returned to the temporary base of the exploration team.

Second Lieutenant Payne was very satisfied with the efficiency of Gu Cheng and the others, especially Gu Cheng rescued many soldiers from the outpost, so he praised Gu Cheng fiercely in his command center. Coupled with the soldiers brought back from the outpost and the seventh squad brought out by Gu Cheng, Gu Cheng and Mo's "heroic image" in the temporary base of the exploration team has risen to a new level.

After completing the side quests and the accumulated prestige, Gu Cheng was promoted to sergeant, and Mo was promoted to corporal.

After resting for one night, early the next morning, Gu Cheng and Mo came to the command center to find Nova to take over the next transfer task, but they didn't expect Nova to still return in the mission, and handed over the follow-up task assessment to Kayl, which shows that Kayl does have a certain reputation in the Terran camp.

After a polite exchange with Captain Striker, Gu Cheng triggered a new job transfer mission assessment - blowing up the hive!

[Trigger the transfer mission "Blow up the hive" Go to the crashed 1131 Yamato ship and blow up the nest that is hatching in the command center of the Innocence.] Reward for completing missions: None. Mission Failure Penalty: Hides job transfer failures. Note: This hidden class mission is the only mission and cannot be shared, and the total number of plot soldiers who lead the Yamato to the Yamato Ship does not exceed 10. 】

Originally, when he saw the words "blow up the hive" when he first triggered the task, Gu Cheng's heart rose to his throat, but after reading the introduction of the task, he was immediately relieved, it turned out that it was to blow up the hatching hive, not a mature hive.

You must know that a mature hive and a hatching Zerg are completely two concepts, the former is the "main base" and "barracks" of the Zerg, which means that the difficulty of this mission is at least "war level", but a hatching hive, the difficulty is relatively low, at most it is more difficult than the previous exploration and support missions.

After receiving the task, Gu Cheng and the others left the command center and found Sam who was drinking and bragging with a group of soldiers in the rest area.

Seeing Gu Cheng and Mo coming, the crowd was even more boiling.

It turned out that Sam was not just one person to join these soldiers, but with a few soldiers of the seventh squad who had participated in exploration missions and support missions with them before, as well as Frank, a fire bat warrior rescued from the outpost, with these soldiers to help "add fuel and vinegar", Gu Cheng and Mo's "popularity" has risen to second only to Captain Kayir, the temporary base of the exploration team.

Gu Cheng was naturally happy to see such a situation, and immediately showed his actor-level acting skills on the field, once again allowing these soldiers who had not participated in the mission to experience a fierce battle in their mission "immersively".

In the end, two machine gunners and a flamethrower offered to join the seventh squad, which made the seventh squad, which had lost some losses in the battle, replenish the number of soldiers.

As a sergeant, Gu Cheng had the right to issue tasks to these soldiers, so he divided the seventh squad into 3 groups, 2, 3 groups continued to stay in the temporary base of the exploration team to complete the exploration mission, the first group of 5 machine gunners and 3 raiders, and 2 fire bats followed him to the Yamato ship Wufu to complete the task of blowing up the insect nest.

After noon, Gu Cheng called Sam and left the temporary base of the exploration team with 10 plot soldiers.

At this time, it was the fifth day of landing on this planet, and all the wormhole signal sources within a radius of hundreds of miles from the temporary base of the exploration team had been detected. So on the way to the Yamato Ship, Gu Cheng avoided various dangerous areas according to the marked points displayed on the system map, and because of this, the straight-line distance from the temporary base of the exploration team to the Yamato Ship Wufu was only more than 300 kilometers marked on the map, but Gu Cheng and the others took more than 4 hours to reach the designated area.

Of course, with this speed, they are naturally not walking, but riding a transport vulture (also known as ** car, spider car, long-range to the ground, concussion attack, with three spider mines, can place spider mines on the ground, spider mines will sneak into the ground after being put in, with anti-concealment effect. A vulture can carry 3 **, but it can't be replenished), which allowed Gu Cheng and his party to arrive in just over 4 hours.

In the middle of the sand dunes in front, a huge Yamato ship was completely loaded into the dunes, and there were several large holes in the left flank with a diameter of several meters, which were obviously attacked by the Zerg long-range units when they were in the air, and then fell here.

Originally, after the fall, Wu Fu sent a distress message to the first temporary base, but as soon as the information was sent, it was attacked by the Zerg, and the first temporary base found that the Zerg not only captured the Wu Hao through the monitoring screen from the Wu False Number, but also tried to hatch the worm nest inside, so he was preparing to send troops to attack here, but the first temporary base was attacked by the Zerg again!

This fight is the opportunity for nearly a month, and until now the first temporary base is still at war with the Zerg, so the task of rescuing the Yamato ship Wufu fell on the head of the temporary base of the exploration team.

It stands to reason that a support mission of this difficulty would at least allow the Chosen One to lead 3-5 teams of plot soldiers, and with the help of vultures and siege tanks, to reclaim the Innocence.

However, since Gu Cheng triggered the hidden job transfer mission, this mission became a stealth mission.

As the distance between the troops and Wu Yu shortened, the faces of Gu Cheng and the others quickly became heavy. Although from a distance, it seemed to be quiet and peaceful, except for the large hole in the black smoke emitting from the left flank of the Innocent, but when they got closer, they could see that there were obvious traces of battle, bloodstained fragments of mechanical armor everywhere, puddles of dried green liquid, rotten bones and rotten flesh all over the ground, and clear artillery craters.

Looking at the other locations on the appearance of the Wuwu Number, there are traces of stinging snake acid corrosion everywhere, all of which shows that there have been several fierce battles at this forced landing site! And every time, it ended with the victory of the Zerg.

There may still be a number of Terran soldiers hiding inside the Innocence, using the Innocence's various sturdy hatches to save their lives, but it is certain that absolutely no one left here alive.

Gu Cheng asked the troops to stop, pointed to the hatch that Wu Yu had lowered, and said, "I guess...... There must have been quite a few Zerg ambushes in the sand dunes near the hatch. ”

After that, I sighed in my heart: Alas, it is worthy of hiding the difficulty of the job transfer task, which means that you are facing a big battle without even entering the mission door?

Mo said at this time: "According to the infiltration mission, it is unlikely that we will attack directly. ”

"I think so too." Gu Cheng nodded: "Since it is the experience of ghost agents, it is impossible for us to attack it with great fanfare." ”

Sam asked, "What is the best way to do it, sir?" ”

Gu Cheng stared at Sam for a long time, and said calmly, "It's better to ...... Use the strategy of turning the tiger away from the mountain. Send out bait to lure all the Zerg at the main gate away, and then take the opportunity to sneak in. ”

Sam nodded in agreement: "Good way, who will be responsible for the introduction?" ”

Gu Cheng and Mo looked at Sam at the same time.

Sam:???
