Chapter 260: Slowly advancing

When Nangong Rong rushed to the front line with Octavier and his cheap sister Lin Weiyinhui, the battle had been going on for a long time. There is no way, no one except reporters will deliberately drive the car to the front line in the fierce fighting, in order to avoid being detected Lin Weiyin and did not catch the two of them flying over, the teenagers can only choose to walk, and the speed will naturally not be very fast.

The imaginary crushing did not appear, and what Nangong Rong who was hiding in the ruins saw was the scene of the Kunta and a small monster entangled with each other, and the ground troops of the two sides not far away were also inextricably linked, and it turned out to be a serious attack battle that was beyond the expectations of the teenager.

"Alright, we're here. Octavier, who was observing the situation of the battlefield in the ruins, retracted his head and leaned against a half-collapsed metal wall to look at Nangong Rong and asked, "What now, let Lin Weiyin rush out and play the role of Horse Monkey Shochu to assist Bigar in defeating the little monster and saving the world?"

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess's tone sounded a little helpless, because the girl found that it was difficult to make a difference on the field even if her strength was not affected in any way in a battle of this scale, but Nangong Rong had already seen a similar scene in the hometown of her cheap sister, so her face was very flat, and she answered the other party's questions unhurriedly while continuing to observe the battle between the robot scorpion and the little monster.

"There's no need for that, all we have to do is find the Abyss Crystal to see whose body it is, and then find an opportunity to try to steal or grab it, and then without hesitation, open the plane teleportation and leave decisively. As for saving the world, it's better to leave it to the superheroes. ”

Lin Weiyin, who was silently checking the equipment and preparing for the attack, seemed to have heard something from the young man's words, and immediately turned her head to look over in shock: "Wait a minute, my dear Ernie sauce, you mean the crystal is not on the little monster's body?"

Otherwise, this guy wouldn't have said [find it], but would have just said "take it away".

Octavir reacted the same when she heard this, and her face couldn't help but be full of surprise: "Is this true?"

Nangong Rong nodded very painfully: "That's right, I'm sure that that thing is not on the monster." However, there is a very clear abyssal aura nearby, and the crystal is definitely somewhere in the city. That being said, it's a little too difficult to find out in this situation, and we'll wait until the locals' ground forces break into the city center. ”

Even if you want to fish in troubled waters, the water has to be muddy first.

The darkness of the night obscured most of the city, and it was likely that some terrifying beast was hiding in that darkness, and it was better to let the local troops go over and explore the way on their behalf, so as not to encounter danger. And since the green-skinned little gnomes have not put the crystal [equipment] on the little monster's body, they must have arranged for it to have some more out-of-specification existence to stimulate its power.

"Look, the tide of battle has changed. ”

The voice of the cheap sister interrupted the conversation between the boy and the eldest princess, and when the two turned their heads to look, they found that the human troops who were struggling to advance through the ruins of buildings, the wreckage of vehicles, and the broken streets suddenly became strangely chaotic, and they turned their guns and fired frantically at their backs, unbeknownst to them, they thought that all of them were under mind control.

"What's going on?"

Nangong Rong asked everyone's thoughts, but unfortunately they couldn't see clearly at this distance, so Lin Weiyin immediately used the farsightedness function of the power armor to look over in order to relieve everyone's doubts.

As a rookie who had only been trained for a few months to supplement the team, Giggleet was naturally not entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and Sergeant March arranged him by his side, taking care of him and teaching him by the way, so as not to die early on the battlefield.

But there are limits to this kind of care after all, especially when Sergeant March's troops are sent to the front line to open the way for everyone, and at any time it is possible to suddenly jump out of the shadows around him, an indigo monster that is not like insects, beasts and beasts, and kills the soldiers who are caught off guard in all kinds of imaginable and unexpected ways, who cares about others?

Just a few minutes earlier, the taller man who had joined the group with Giggleet had been half-crouching behind a table-sized piece of building metal to provide fire support during the attack, and he was supposed to be far enough away from the human-toothed monsters on the street that he was not in danger of, but he finally got his lunch.

At that time, Gigrette was following Sergeant March, and the sergeant was next to the armored vehicle responsible for transporting himself and others, asking for air support from his superiors, which happened to be less than ten meters away from Dahan. So the guy could see it clearly, and from under the metal fragments of the ruins next to him, a scarred and bloody monster suddenly emerged, half of its body was so fleshy that it could no longer see its original appearance, and the insect-like limbs were missing a single leg that it couldn't even hold its balance - even so, it managed to bite the big man's flank and drag him into the hole where he was hiding.

Gigret's face was full of incredulity, because every time the troops passed through a piece of ruins, every sewer manhole cover, or even the wreckage of a car on the side of the road, they would first greet them with explosives and grenades, and startled out the monsters hidden in them before moving on, and the ruins in front of them were no exception.

For now, however, it seems that the monster has withstood the damage caused by the explosion and continues to hide in the shadows and wait for an opportunity. Just looking at the other party's injuries, if it never finds any chance, it will probably die silently in the hole.

Sergeant March's reaction was apparently quicker than that of Giggleet, who was still in a daze, and he dropped the communications soldier in the car, who didn't know what was going on due to his vision, picked up his rifle and fired at the monster.

The army's reloading of energy weapons is not complete, and many miscellaneous units are still using gunpowder guns that are obviously not lethal enough to monsters, and unfortunately the sergeant is one of them. Therefore, despite the bright flames spewed out from the muzzle of the gun and a loud roar, the bullets that were fired hit the monster were just like mud cows into the sea, and there was no reaction at all.

Giggleet shuddered at the sound of the gunshot, cleared his head, and joined the attack with his rifle in hand. The two didn't pay attention to whether they would accidentally injure their comrades when they shot, first of all, the other party was wearing a single soldier armor with good protection, and secondly, even if they were not killed by their own people, they would still be unable to escape death after being dragged away by monsters, so what else is there to worry about?

However, their efforts were unsuccessful, and before they could pull out a new magazine, the monster had already hidden most of its body in the hole. Although the flesh and blood of that body were blurred to the point that it was no different from a mosaic, and the life force contained in it was rapidly draining, it was still much stronger than a weak human.

Even if the prey in its mouth is larger than the average human, it still won't change anything.

The big man lost his rifle when he was dragged by the monster, and was bitten through the armor by the other party and injured the internal organs of his abdomen, even then he didn't give up, took out the pistol tied to his thigh and hit the monster's head to shoot the entire magazine, and then frantically punched and kicked it, and finally ripped off the helmet and roared to bite the monster with his teeth- At this moment, he completely turned into a desperate beast, and even forgot that the monster's blood contained toxins, and even if he finally broke free from the monster's mouth, he would not be saved.

Sergeant March, who had changed his magazine, could only shake his head and shoot the big man in the head, thus ending his suffering.

Giggleet finally threw two grenades into the black hole on the sergeant's orders, but it is unclear whether they had any effect. And after that, this guy never dared to go near any ruins, and always walked cautiously and tremblingly near the armored car, but he followed the team alive and advanced a long distance to the city.

Just when Giggleet thought the troops would slowly advance to the city center like this, Sergeant March stopped the group after receiving a contact.

"Sergeant, what's the matter?"

Ron, who was in charge of controlling the turret of the armored car, asked a question that puzzled everyone with a strange expression on his face, for the time being, although the human race had to pay the price of blood for every meter of advance, it was not to the point that it was unbearable, and some troops equipped with advanced detection equipment did not even need to risk the soldier's life to explore the way, and they easily advanced a long distance at a very small cost.

So now is the chance to take the city in one go, and at the worst of all, it can provide support when the Quinta and Alpha II monsters are fighting, so why stop?

"One of the scouts had noticed something unusual, and they were worried that it would pose a threat to the advancing forces, so they wanted us to stop where they were for a moment and wait for them to figure out what was going on. ”

Ron's rough pockmarked face was almost twisted together when he heard this, and he spat angrily: "Oh, a reconnaissance team thinks that the monster on the ground pulled out of the hot Xiang may cause biological contamination, so let's wait here for them to invite experts to conduct laboratory tests to confirm that they are harmless before notifying everyone to move on?"

Sergeant March sorted out his equipment with a blank face, and said something that seemed prosaic in a tone that was not salty or light: "Well, that's pretty much how it should be." I can tell you the name of the other scout team, they are called Sled Dogs. ”

Then no one muttered anything to the soldiers around the sergeant, including Ron. You must know that even newcomers like Gigret have heard of the legendary deeds of this reconnaissance team that often goes into the monster-occupied area alone to carry out various missions, and if they think something is suspicious, then it is not impossible to wait in place for a while.

Giggleet took advantage of this precious opportunity to lean against the cold surface armor of the armored vehicle to relax his body, and after replenishing a large amount of water from the straw in his helmet, the muscles that had been in a tense state for a long time showed very obvious soreness, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Hey, rookie, you're relaxing too soon, this isn't a base where those officers in the back can quietly raise pet cats. A not-so-friendly voice came from the side, Giggleet knew the guy, the famous knife-mouthed tofu heart in the team, "It will be quite difficult for you to relax like this and regain your tension, and if you don't make a certain move during the battle, it can be fatal." ”

Giggleet nodded gratefully, "Thank you, Burns." I understand the reasoning, but in the end I still can't hold on. ”

Considering the other party's training and actual combat experience, Burns could only sigh helplessly: "In short, you should pay attention to yourself and try not to get too far away from the chariot." Unlike street fights between humans, these monsters prefer to hide in the shadows of the ruins and wait for an opportunity to burst into the crowd rather than shoot around, so as long as you don't get close to the ruins on both sides of the road, you'll encounter a lot less danger. ”

Before Burns could continue, Sergeant March suddenly called out his name at the back of the line: "Burns, take these bastards to dispose of the monster's corpse and the debris on the road, it's almost affecting the vehicle." ”

Not all vehicles have the ability to fly in hovering, and at this point, humans have taken out a lot of obsolete equipment that is sealed and ready to be destroyed, and those who run away with tires naturally have much higher requirements for road conditions than hovering vehicles.

After shrugging his shoulders at Gigglett with a bitter melon face, Burns turned and walked over, and when the recruit looked in his direction, he saw that the road was indeed a mess, and the trucks that had been following the line could not pass.

Several slain monsters lay in the middle of the road, their bodies half-burned by the armored vehicle's directional energy guns emitting curling smoke, each of which required several people to move, and that's not counting the countless debris scattered on the ground after the collapse of the building, which would take a lot of time and effort to clean up.

It is also difficult for the soldiers who drove the classic cars that ran away with tires to follow the troops for such a long distance on such a bad road, which was really hard.

Guiggleet silently bowed to the veteran drivers in his mind, and then watched as Sergeant March, who had finished explaining to Burns, returned to the armored car, waiting for a contact from the sled dog squad.
