Chapter 1010: Evacuation and Sacrifice
"Sir, they're rushing here!" Carlson snapped.
"Good! All set, aim! Yorick looked in the direction the infected were coming from, estimating the distance of the other party.
"Put!"
At the sound of his order, the first platoon where Vasilis and Carlsen were located opened fire. The salvo of more than twenty people was quite powerful, and with the predetermined battlefield that was not very spacious, a large number of infected people were hit. A small number of infected individuals were also hit with crystals, causing an immediate chain explosion.
"Stand up in the front row! Immediately reload and inflate me! Keep up in the back! Fast! Hurry! Yorick continued to command: "Alright, all set up, ready, aim!" ”
"Put!"
With the second order, the scattered infected who were lucky enough to escape the explosion were all wiped out. Yorick breathed a sigh of relief from this situation, and immediately gave the order again, replacing the second wave of gunners who had already fired ammunition, and allowing the third platoon of soldiers to take over the firing position.
The black-robed strange man in the distance frowned, feeling a little unlucky, the commander he was facing was a decisive and experienced monarch. Not only did he not hesitate to give the order, but he also eliminated a large number of infected people with only two salvos.
"Hmph, it's indeed an opponent worth taking seriously... The black-robed man grinned widely, showed a terrifying smile, and said to a black-robed sect member beside him, "Okay, it's time to let the sinners move, this is a good opportunity for them to atone for their sins." ”
The strange sound of blowing sounded again, and a large number of infected people gathered again. Yorick looked at it for a while, and found that the number of infected people this time was obviously much less, and he was a little relieved. But the tall and strange creatures that appeared next made him completely cold.
They were two strange creatures that could not be described in words, and their entire bodies were twisted cylinders that had grown and retreated for an unknown number of years. The two monsters had no necks, their heads and bodies were integrated, and just looking at the front, Yorick could see seven or eight faces, large and small. Each face was wailing and screaming, and they had at least a dozen legs underneath, but most of them were useless, short and twisted, and only the two long legs that exposed cracked bones and rotting muscles were what they were really using.
These two huge strange creatures squeezed through the crowd of infected people in front of them, walked to the front of the line, and then leaned over slightly and made a sprint in the strange sound of the variation.
"Aim, aim, aim!" Yorick's heart suddenly cooled, and cold sweat immediately flowed. He turned around and shouted to Vasilis and the others, who had just finished inflating: "Prepare in the back row!" After the front row is finished, he immediately stepped forward to take over, don't care about my orders, see which one to fire immediately! ”
"Mmmm A terrifying scream came from the mouths of the two tall giants, a terrifying sound like dozens of people shouting in unison.
"They're coming! I'm aiming! Beat! Yorick ordered.
"Bang!" The soldiers in the front row opened fire immediately, but unfortunately they didn't accomplish much except for a slight pause for the trolls.
"Come to the back! Fast! Yorick waved his hand and let the soldiers in the back row into the firing position. Then the sound of sparse shooting rang out, and the effect of the attack was even more frustrating, only the front one showed obvious wounds, but this also caused the monster to go berserk, waving a dozen arms, and constantly dismantling the barricades.
Yorick and the others were furious, but there was nothing they could do, their attacks were very weak, except for making a small hole on the monster's body, there was no other effect, and these monsters didn't even bleed.
Vasilis walked to the firing position, and instead of firing the first shot, as he did with his other colleagues, he carefully observed the other man's figure. These two monsters are indeed more terrifying than the black-robed monsters they fought before, and the oppressive feeling brought by the difference in body size several times makes it difficult to breathe. But if you compare carefully, the huge monsters have no carapace, no lethal tentacles and claw thorns, and even the recovery ability of their bodies is not as strong as that of the black-robed people before.
(By the way, we've killed those powerful monsters before!) If these two monsters have one on them... Vasilis froze and saw a troll in the forefront, with a dozen or so faces, one of which was constantly rising and falling.
(Yes, it must be that pustule!) Vasilis aimed at the face and pulled the trigger of the rifle in his hand.
"Oh-oh-oh-oh!" The strange face exploded, and as Vasilis expected, there was indeed a pustule hidden underneath. The juice spurted out, and the troll fell backwards to the ground. Constantly rolling on the ground, the surrounding improvised fortifications were completely destroyed, and even another troll was disturbed and frightened, stopped the destruction work, and even took a few steps back.
"How did you do that?" Yorick patted Vasilis on the shoulder and stopped the guy who was about to go to inflate.
"Sir, hit their pustules, remember? The few we killed before were all beaten to death. After Vasilis had finished his brief report, he hurried to inflate.
Yorick was overjoyed and looked at the battlefield again. The trolls that had fallen before were no longer berserk, and were lying on the ground like dead dogs. A large amount of pus gushed out of the wound, and the body gradually dried up.
"All of them! Look carefully for the pustule on its body, it's a bulging, constantly beating thing, just break that one! Yorick gestured to another troll in a daze
Gunshots rang out again, and the soldiers kept shooting at what might have been pustules, sending the trolls furious again. It shook off the dead bodies of its companions, constantly destroying the roadblocks in front of it, and approaching step by step towards peace of mind.
"Damn! Haven't found it yet?! This guy is too close. Yorick grew irritable.
On the other side of the battlefield, a black-robed sect member bowed his head and whispered to the leader, "My lord, it seems that those mortals have already known our weakness, sinners have no carapace, and this weakness is especially deadly. The weakness of the remaining sinner is behind them, and they can't find it for the time being, but it is only a matter of time before they continue to get closer and be discovered. ”
"Hmm... The black-robed leader thought for a few seconds, looked at the black-robed man who was blowing the pot, and ordered, "Let this sinner do his last duty!" ”
The pot blower nodded slightly, and blew up the pitch in vain.
The troll who heard the high tune was slightly stunned, and then the face on its body immediately distorted, its body swelled, and its limbs trembled in pain. It sped up again, frantically destroying the barricades and staggering towards the line.
"Why haven't you found it yet!" Yorik was going mad, and he turned back to Vasilis and shouted, "Boy! You've got good eyes, come up! Gotta stop it now! ”
Vasilis was now deflated, and hurriedly ran to the firing position, aiming his gun at the twisting and moving troll.
As the troll gets closer, the twist of the body increases. It finally revealed a bulging pustule on its back.
"Found it!" Vasilis immediately opened fire, and this shot directly burst the pustule of the opponent.
"Mmmm The troll immediately shouted, seeing in the footsteps of its companions.
At this point, the mad tune changes again and becomes sharp and passionate. The troll's body immediately swelled up like a balloon, and it knelt twenty meters away from the defense line, no longer struggling, and its entire body gradually swelled to the limit.
"Oh, shit! Lie down! Get down! Yorick commanded loudly.
The troll's body exploded, destroying the improvised barricades with massive blasting force. The shockwave, with a large amount of debris of the fortifications, hit Yorick and the others.
Most of the soldiers lay down, and only a few were unable to dodge and were stabbed to death by flying pieces of rubble and wood. The loss of personnel is better to say, the collapse of the defense line deprived the entire company of its only cover.
Yorick got up and looked in the direction of the enemy. A large number of infected people are running towards them, and their formations are loose to prevent them from being killed again. Those black-robed monsters also followed not far behind the crowd.
(No more...) I can't hold it... Yorick sighed, looked back at the soldiers whose morale had plummeted, and ordered, "Retreat!" Retreat now! Evacuate in the direction of the big camp!! Leave everything else alone, get out now! ”
The soldiers hurried away, and many lost their guns, much to Yorik's disappointment. He shook his head and was about to leave with the group, only to see Carlsen on the ground and Vasilis, who was half-kneeling to the side, trying to lift him up.
"What's going on?。。。 O God of Light ... As soon as Yorick got closer, he saw strips of wood and rusty iron that had pierced Carlson's body.
"Sir, take this child with you. I'm hopeless, I'm coming back, I'm going to God... Carlsen was not conscious, and he couldn't use his strength to break free from Vasilis's hands.
"Nope! Uncle Carlson! Your wife is still waiting for you! Your daughter is still waiting for you! You can't give up here! Vasilis wiped his tears, looked up, and pleaded with Yorik: "Sir, help him." He also has a family. Can't die here. He still has family waiting for him! ”
"He's hopeless. Child... Yorick looked at the wound again, shook his head, and said, "Kid, we have to go... They're coming over soon, quick! If you don't want to die with him, hurry up. ”
"No... Vasilis burst into tears.
"Sir... Do yourself a favor ... Carlson laughed, "Pull me there, the steam generator." ”
"You're going to ... All right... Yorick understood what the other party was thinking, and immediately pulled Carlson to the abandoned steam generator with Vasilis.
"Kid! Give this to my family ... Magnus opened the valve, closed the valve, and handed the emblem to Vasilis.
