Chapter 199: Claire

"No, no, that's not what we meant."

"So what do you propose?"

Lauren looked at the people behind her and said, "I have a suggestion." All of them have the power to repel enemies, but there are a lot of trivial things to do on the road. For example, vehicle maintenance, reconnaissance, finding supplies, and so on. If it's all up to you, it's clear that you're understaffed. ”

"Look, we have a doctor here, a mechanic, can you let us follow you? Instead, we can offer our skills to your advantage. ”

"That's ......" Lin Ci looked at Luther: "What do you think?" ”

Luther crossed his hands around his chest, thought for a moment, and said, "I think it's possible, but I don't want to take so many people with me." ”

Luther thought for a moment, stretched out three fingers and said, "I only have thirty people, pilots, maintenance workers, and soldiers." ”

Then he looked at Lin Ci.

Lin Ci and Kate briefly discussed, and then said, "Two or three soldiers are enough, and their job is mainly to maintain order. ”

"The number of people, about forty is about the same. Of course, if there are family members, women and children can bring them. If there is no problem, you can arrange and assign it yourself. ”

Lin Ci reminded: "But this matter is only known to those present. You should understand that if it gets out, it will only be you who will be in trouble. ”

Lauren nodded after hearing this, Lin Ci stood up and said, "That's it, you discuss it, we will live in the restaurant." When you have finished assigning it, give it to me and Mr. Luther. If you want to concentrate the personnel, we'll leave tomorrow morning. ”

Back in the restaurant, Lin Ci roughly explained the matter to Han Mengdie and the two women. They didn't have any opinions, Han Mengdie said: "That's fine, we can do less trivial things, but we also have more responsibilities." ”

Half an hour later, Lauren led the people outside the restaurant. Luther and Lin Ci walked out, and Lauren walked to Luther with four other men, apparently planning to go with Luther to the Antarctic Fortress.

Lin Ci also got a list here, and the person who handed him the list was a Chinese man in his forties. He had a square face, thick eyebrows, and a strong stature, and introduced himself: "My name is Fan Ping, and I used to fly a civil airliner. I also know a little bit of repair work, so I don't know if I can go with you. ”

"Then Master Fan. We'll leave our plane to you. ”

Fan Ping patted his chest hard: "Wrap it around me." ”

Lin Ci looked at the list and called a name: "Chen Ran? ”

"I am." A man with glasses walked out, in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were very warm and he had a faint smile on his face. "I'm a doctor, well, surgeon. I think it can help you. ”

Lin Ci nodded: "Doctor Chen, welcome." ”

"This is the insider, Shu Yu." Chen Ran pulled over a woman who was slightly younger than him, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and she was a good match for the doctor.

"She is a nurse and my assistant. ”

Next, Lin Ci counted some more people, including cooks, electricians, and security personnel. plus

This number was within Lin Ci's expectations, and after Lin Ci memorized all their names, he asked Fan Ping to take a few maintenance workers and other men.

Woowoo woo –

In the morning, the sun has barely illuminated the sea, and the sound of a whistle rings in the airport. The civilians of the city heard the sound and came out of their houses and into the streets.

In the open space in front of the restaurant, Lin Ci looked at Luther sitting in the big truck speechlessly, and it was he who sounded the whistle of the big truck just now. Luther shrugged and said, "Why, I've wanted to do this for a long time." Are you ready, we're going to go first. ”

Byron also said to Han Mengdie and Aoi women: "What are you talking about." ”

Inside Luther's house, he tapped on the car door.

With a strange cry from Byron, the plane rushed towards the airport boulevard and flew into the sky.

Lin Ci turned around and beckoned, "Let's go too." ”

They stepped into the plane, which was escorted by seven soldiers. Also in the same car as Lin Ci are Aoi and Han Mengdie. Kate and Xiao Jiu are in the tail of the aircraft behind.

The transport plane finally departed Midway, and it would take more than a day's flight to return home from the air.

After Lin Ci and Luther both left, the remaining civilians of about 200 people on Midway Island were at a loss. But there are some clever ones, and while the others are still confused, they have already snuck into the club and fight for food in the restaurant.

"That's mine!"

"Fuck off, I saw it first."

"Put it down for me."

In the warehouse of the restaurant, several men fought for me, and suddenly the door of the warehouse was kicked open, and a soldier came in with a gun and shouted: "Stop, whoever moves again, I will kill him!" ”

The men had to stop, and the soldier cried out, "I'm Sergeant Talay, and now that Lauren* is gone, I have the highest rank here." I command you to come out, I have something to say to you. ”

Under the threat of gunpoint, the men look at me, I look at you, and they can only obediently walk out of the warehouse. In the open space outside the restaurant, almost all the civilians in the city gathered here, crowding the open space densely.

With a few soldiers barely in order, Sergeant Tarley stepped out of the cafeteria, stood on a makeshift platform stacked with several boxes, and shouted, "Guys, please listen to me. We can't stay here any longer, and God knows if there will be monsters from the sea attacking here. We had to leave, there was enough food and water, and we still had a car. ”

"Plus, we've got a couple of mutant warriors with us. We can drive a submarine to the Antarctic fortress. If you don't want to stay and die. So, let's get to work. We try to leave today. ”

"We must save ourselves," shouted Talay, "and since no one wants to protect us, we must protect ourselves!" ”

When they heard this, they fell silent, and then shouted: "Yes, we have to save ourselves!" ”

Mobilized by Talay, they entered the warehouses in batches, and people lined up in long queues to pass supplies from the warehouses to the trucks. Head to the land of submarines and drive a huge convoy out of Midway. More than ten trucks and two off-road vehicles drove out of the city.

Soon in the evening, the convoy stopped and rested on the road. Perhaps the people saw hope again, sitting in a car-walled camp, lighting a bonfire, and talking and laughing as they ate their food allotment.

On an off-road vehicle, Tarot was eating a canned food when one of his soldiers came over and said, "Sir, our escort force is seriously insufficient, you really plan to take them to the Antarctic fortress." ”

"Don't forget that we are soldiers, and it is the duty of soldiers to protect civilians."

"You're right, but we have too few guards. So when I was on the road, I thought that I had to gather some people who could form a militia group. ”

The soldier named Joe smiled wryly, "We don't have that much ammunition, even if we take a batch out of the warehouse." But when they faced the enemy at sea before, the generals had already run out of ammunition, and now there was really not much left. ”

"Then see who has a license to carry a gun, and give the gun to these people first. Others use machetes, anything that can be used as a weapon. Since they want to save themselves, they have to pay something for it. ”

Tarot patted the soldier on the shoulder and said, "Go and call all the men, and I'll tell them." ”

The soldier nodded and went.

After a while, the men all gathered around Tarot, there were about a hundred or so people, and the number was okay. Tarot shouted, "Gentlemen, we have to form a militia regiment. Otherwise, a few soldiers and mutant warriors under my command alone will not be able to protect everyone's safety. ”

"You can't say no to that, and if you do, I'll kick him out right now. Now, people with gun licenses raise their hands. ”

"A lot of ......" An attacking warrior wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and as far as he could see, both sides of the road were densely packed with xenomorphs. Among them, there are mostly tearers, and the number adds up to about three or four hundred, plus dozens of gluttonous eaters. With such a number, even if the previous Midway army was intact, I am afraid that it would have to use weapons of mass destruction to repel it.

Now, for this team, it's nothing short of devastating.

"Don't give up until the last minute." Tarot said, but he didn't have any confidence in his heart. If the number of monsters is only half, he will try to break through. But there are so many of them, once you can't break through quickly and get entangled by monsters, you will only die faster.

"Everyone, pay attention, prepare for war. Don't stay outside by the window, lean all in. Tarot shouted.

"Here we ......" Tarot mentally calculated the distance between the two xenos, and when they entered the preset distance in the sergeant's mind, Tarot shouted, "Fire!" ”

The shooters in the armored car shouted and opened fire on the incoming monsters, and the number of rippers was too large to be aim, and the lines of fire on both sides just blasted towards the piles of monsters, and immediately splattered large fields of blood.

Rippers were shot and fell, but behind them, their own kind stepped on their corpses. In the blink of an eye, the Kuroshio crashed into the car formation. The violent collision caused the armored car to almost roll on its side, and the Rippers desperately tried to burrow into the window, and they were greeted by a storm of bullets and various machetes.

The soldiers yelled and blocked the window, and at this time they were no longer allowed to hesitate, let alone retreat. If they retreat, they may die faster.

Even so, in just a few moments, many soldiers have fallen forever.

Tarot was strafing the car with his machine gun, and he could already foresee his own death. A voice in his heart kept telling him that his end was over. There are so many monsters, even if you take a defensive formation, you won't be able to hold it for long.

In addition to the fact that the number of people who can fight is too small, those are just ordinary people, how can so many monsters be killed.

The mutants managed to control the situation, but their numbers were limited, and they could barely hold a dozen of them. In the blink of an eye, four armored vehicles had been destroyed, and the Rippers poured into the overturned compartments like a black flood, and screams and screams immediately rang out from inside.

In less than ten minutes, only seven armored vehicles were left that were still resisting with all their might.

"Brute!" Tarot yelled, ran towards the armored car, pulled out a grenade and threw it through the window.

Rumble!

Flames erupted from the windows, but a single grenade couldn't kill all the monsters, and after the wave of fire, the skinless monsters crawled out of the windows and crawled towards the other armored vehicles.

Just then, he heard the sound of helicopter propeller, he looked up, and five helicopters swooped in this direction. The plane's cannons all spewed out thick tongues of fire, and the bullet lines ploughed across the ground, tearing waves of blood through the clusters of the Rippers.

Boom, a blast of missiles shot down, blasting the monster's outer ring, the flames of the explosion splitting them apart. Then a series of figures jumped down from the plane, and those figures fell directly to the ground.

Tarot looked at the leader of a woman in her twenties. As soon as she stretched out her hand, red fluorescent light flew to form a scythe larger than hers.

The scythe with snake patterns on the handle turned lightly in her hand, and the woman with a few freckles on her face said coldly: "Kill them all!" ”

She pointed at the front of the scythe.

When the figures flashed around him, they were all soldiers in black armor. They stretched out their hands one after another, and red fireflies flew between their hands, and after a while, they turned into different weapons such as knives, guns, swords, and axes.

These crashed into the hordes of monsters, swords flying everywhere, flesh and blood flying, and the lethality was several points stronger than those of the mutant warriors.

The scythe woman was not idle, she slung the scythe over her shoulders and walked slowly and methodically through the flesh of the monster. The three-headed gluttonous pounced on her, and in the middle of it, the woman slammed her shoulders and her scythe flicked.

Tarot saw a cold light flickering in the air, and the three monsters suddenly split in midair, spilled blood, and fell next to the woman.

The woman walked over, and suddenly the scythe slashed in a circle, and a group of monsters around her burst into a circle of blood, all of which were decapitated!

The battle ended after just half an hour.

With the support of aerial firepower, plus the women on the ground and the black-armored soldiers, they managed to kill most of the monsters. The rest saw that the situation was not right, and immediately fled, and the whole highway was full of blood plasma, and the thickest place was stepped on, and all they brought up was meat paste.

Many people in the convoy vomited, and Tarot's face was very ugly, but he still managed to calm down and meet those people in a fairly clean place.

The woman seemed to be the leader, and she smiled and stretched out her hand, "My name is Claire, and the others are fine, right?" ”

Tarot shook hands with her, her hands were soft and a little cold, and Tarot felt like he had touched a snake. He let go of the woman and nodded, "Some people died, but it's okay, I thought we were all going to die here, but fortunately you came." ”
