Chapter 186: Reinforcements Arrive
With the ultra-high mobility granted by the nano armor, Qiao Lu constantly killed the lickers who tried to get closer, knocking them off the wall like a whack-a-mole in turn, in order to assist the investigation team in continuing to push the line forward.
With the expansion of the front, the crossroads that served as the waypoints were finally cleared, allowing the Wandering Earth to teleport reinforcements to the scene.
However, at this moment, Qiao Lu's radar detected that a missile was approaching this side, and from the flight trajectory, it was obvious that it was coming towards this side.
"Is it another nuclear bomb?"
Qiao Lu couldn't help but think of the ending of Raccoon City, could it be that this time it was the government of a certain country that saw that the situation was not good and started the nuclear bomb washing mode?
He really wanted to go to intercept and find a way to get the missile off course.
But what I didn't expect was that the missile was detonated in advance when it was still a long way away from the investigation team, and at the same time, it did not set off a stunning nuclear explosion, it was just a less powerful air explosion, and it had almost no lethality to ground units.
"Not a nuclear bomb?"
In the next second, a thick cloud of smoke poured out from the center of the explosion, instantly drowning the fireball generated by the explosion and spreading out to the surroundings at an extremely fast speed.
At this moment, Qiao Lu realized that this was a biochemical missile, and that dense cloud of smoke was the culprit that caused the destruction of the city - biochemical poison gas!
"Everyone confirms the situation of chemical protective suits! Toxic gases are coming! ”
Shortly after Qiao Lu issued the warning, a violent poisonous gas rushed down the street to the intersection where the investigation team was located.
The poisonous gas was like a tsunami, churning wildly towards the Wandering Earth Survey Group.
The intersection where the investigation team was located was instantly flooded with poison gas, but fortunately, no one was wearing high-standard chemical protective suits, so they were not extinguished by this poison gas.
However, this biochemical missile still poses a very serious problem, that is, the visibility around it has almost suddenly become zero, and even if the night vision mode is activated, it is impossible to see the scene inside this dense fog.
The soldiers of the investigation team could only rely on their hearing and memory to continue firing in the direction of the zombie attack, and the lickers, who themselves relied entirely on their keen hearing to hunt, were like fish in water in such an environment, and immediately took the opportunity to rush up.
This biochemical missile has both the function of transmitting viruses through the air and creating opportunities for lickers to tear apart the army's defenses, so it is no wonder that the army will be defeated by such a biochemical attack.
Although the Wandering Earth Investigation Team can not be afraid of being infected by the virus gas, the smoke screen formed by this poisonous gas is indeed very obstructive.
The snipers who were staring at the lickers lost their vision, and the zombies had no body temperature to be caught by the infrared scanners, so that no one could see the lickers anymore, and they crossed the front line in one breath and prepared to pounce on the crowd behind.
If that happens, the team's defenses will be in jeopardy!
The scene where the Lickers defeat the army by teaming up with a large number of zombies has been played out many times in this Resident Evil world.
Even if it was just a licker rushing into the crowd, it would inevitably be a brutal bloody storm.
Its sharp claws and terrifying tongue are not something that the armor of an ordinary soldier of the Investigation Group can withstand!
"Keep firing!"
Even knowing that the threat of lickers was great, the investigation team could not stop shooting at the zombie tide for the sake of vigilance, otherwise it would only be even more disastrous if a large number of zombies poured up to disrupt the formation.
This series of highly disciplined biological and chemical weapon attacks really made Qiao Lu feel a little overwhelmed.
After more than ten years of development, the means of biochemical attack in this world are really quite mature.
A few lights burst through the smoke screen to illuminate the surrounding area, but in the thick fog there was still only a vague figure of the licker moving rapidly, and there was no way to shoot these extremely agile monsters so easily.
Just as several lickers managed to jump through the frontal line of defense and landed in the middle of the crossroads, ready to tear through the lines of the Wandering Earth Survey Team from behind, a pillar of blue light suddenly fell from the sky and landed heavily on the crossroads.
The wave of air from the pillar of light as it landed swept away the smoke around it, and a giant of steel strode out of the pillar of light, stomping a cockroach to smash it to pieces.
Optimus Prime's majestic body slowly appeared in the pillar of light, and it wasn't just him, there were more Transformers who were teleported along with the pillar of light.
"Autobots, assemble!"
With Optimus Prime's order, the teleported Autobots threw themselves into the battlefield.
They are all main battle type Transformers belonging to the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force, and they are a level higher than reconnaissance types like Bumblebee in terms of size and firepower, for example, heavy firepower maniacs like Ironhide belong to this unit.
"It's our turn!"
Iron Sheet carried a 220mm heavy bombardment gun, and the blast of air from the shells alone blew away the poison gas throughout the block in one go.
The air wave generated by the explosion instantly kicked up an even more violent cloud of dust, which immediately engulfed the surrounding zombie hordes and buried them under the thick earth.
The other Autobots also showed their skills, directly using the heavy firepower weapons equipped for them by the Wandering Earth to clear the way.
In an instant, the bewildered city was blasted out of a vacuum by them, and all the incoming biochemical gases were directly dispersed by the fierce artillery fire of the Autobots, and there was no chance to get close to the investigation team's position.
And those lickers who took the opportunity to rush up before suddenly put themselves surrounded by the iron giants.
Their proud claws and long tongues were rendered meaningless in front of these large Transformers, and even if they could leave a few scratches or pick off a few parts, they would at best be considered a pedicure for the Autobots, and it would not hurt at all.
On the other hand, Transformers like Optimus Prime and Ironhide can take out the Licker as a matter of one kick, and all that is left is a pile of meat puree when you step on it.
In the face of such a size gap, the lickers who tried to come up for melee combat completely turned into coming to die. The appearance of the Autobots also completely stabilized the rear front of the investigation team, and there was no longer any need to worry about being raided by the lickers.
As for dealing with lickers hiding inside buildings, the Autobots have a better way to deal with them, and that's the large flamethrower.
As long as you aim at one of the windows and spray the flames in, the whole floor will soon be on fire, and the licker will not escape the fate of being charred even if he hides in the ventilation duct.
Reinforcements from the Wandering Earth have arrived, and these lickers alone will never have a chance again!
