Volume 1 The Battle of Dashun Harbor [10] Mutants who can shed their skin

In the on-board night vision system, the high-rise buildings that are gradually closing the distance are full of shadows, covered with a layer of green, and there is also silence.

The roads of the city were potholed, and the armored vehicles moved at an extremely slow pace, and it took 20 minutes to move to Friendship Square.

Although the road in front of the two kilometers is also sparsely passed, "Sister Hua" reminds that the building in front of it has been reoccupied by many mutant creatures, and forcing it through may cause a lot of trouble.

The two cars were parked near the Intercontinental Hotel building, and everyone got out of the car to rest, and the wind blew through the torn advertising cloth on the street lamp pole, rolling up the fallen leaves on the ground, and hitting the car with a clatter.

The "second master" leaned on the car body and raised his gun to watch, and said with emotion: "It's autumn, there is a national highway in my hometown, and there are mountains on both sides. ”

"Second Master" rarely talked about things involving privacy, and as soon as the words came out, everyone pricked up their ears.

"How nice is it? Can it surpass the 5A-level scenic spot? Zhang Yang quietly clichΓ©d, as a high-achieving student whose IQ was second only to Lao Ma, once the fire of his gossip was ignited, his brain would turn fast.

"The 5A-level scenic spot is a fart, a pure natural mountain forest."

"You're talking about Qinling, it turns out that the second master's hometown ......" suddenly mixed up with the voice of "mandrill" in the chat.

"No, you guessed wrong, no."

"Tell me, I've been away from famous mountains and rivers before, maybe I've been there. I'll tell you, if you want to say that it is famous for its autumn leaves, it must be the most beautiful mountain in the north, and the most famous of them ......"

"Alright, shut up! Check out that hole! ”

"Mandrill" wanted to say more, but suddenly he felt that the atmosphere was not quite right again, and everyone around him looked at him with a sad face. Nantes saw that he didn't understand yet, so she had to knock on his helmet: "You big mallet!" I usually can't let out a fart when I should speak, and I talk a lot when I shouldn't! Just now, if you don't interject and show that you are well-informed, she will say a lot of key information herself......"

The hole mentioned by the "second master" is a large pothole on the road not far ahead, and it is from there that the mutant giant drilled out of the ground and launched a crazy attack on Nantes.

Although Sister Hua suggested that there were no threatening creatures nearby, Nantes still took the lead in coming to the entrance of the cave in order not to expose this secret, originally wanting to take a perfunctory look, but she didn't expect to gain a lot.

Two magnesium rods for lighting were thrown in, revealing piles of rusted cars, skeletons, and severed limbs of various creatures below.

Because the "second master" was not used to wearing a helmet, he was forced away by the stench at a glance, but Nantes found that there were still some upright creatures among the bones, like a miniature version of the four-armed giant, just standing motionless.

Since Sister Hua prompted that there was no danger, Nantes simply jumped in, and Liu Lang and Zhang Yang were afraid that he was in danger, so they also jumped in.

The "manager" complained in the back: "Illiterate people are looking for death, I don't know how to send a robot to explore the way first?" ”

"Mandrill" was even more disapproving: "It's hard work, if you want me to say, you can also go in, and directly shoot a cloud burst bomb, and no living creatures have to run." ”

After a while, the three of them returned to the surface with a strange object, which turned out to be a miniature version of the four-armed giant, but not the main body, but the shedding of the skin.

The thing was just over three meters tall, and the two arms under the ribs were obviously shorter, and it didn't look fully developed at the time. Other parts are the same as those of a normal person. It's just that there is a neat crack in the back from the neck to the tail vertebrae, like the molting of an insect.

"There are a few more in it, it's pretty much the same, it looks like a turtle, crab, and insect, growing up and molting." Zhang Yang took out the collection equipment and took some sample specimens.

The "Second Master" took out the dagger and stabbed it a few times, and found that the skin shed by the mutant giant was extremely tough, and the dagger could not be pierced at all. "This thing is no longer in the category of skin, it is stronger than our alloy armor, which is equivalent to naturally evolving an exoskeleton. No wonder Gatlin couldn't kill him before. ”

Listening to them talk about the previous battle, Nantes was dizzy, recalling the details of the battle, this mutant giant has such a strong defense, and the six of them still don't seem to have much chance of winning.

If the distance is far away, it doesn't hurt, and if the distance is too close, you can't fight, how can you win this battle?

At this time, the "chief manager" who had been in charge of guarding also came out of the shadows and threw a pile of metal on the ground. It was the old horse's Gatling Vulcan cannon.

He was originally going to pick up a set of combat modules that he had discarded earlier in the ruins of the building, but he didn't expect to encounter this thing and pick it up.

A few people who had just relaxed saw this twisted Gatling, and their eyes turned red again.

"Let's go, rescue is important, and on the way to study how to defeat this mutant giant." The "second master" wiped his moist eyes and took the lead on the road, and the others followed.

Zhang Yang gave an order before leaving: "Liu Lang, take this mutant molt, that guy keeps every molt intact in the nest, he must value this thing very much, and I feel that it is likely to be used in a war in the future." ”

According to the information of "Sister Hua", they still need to hike at least 15 kilometers, and in normal times, with the physical fitness of these soldiers, they can run in almost 40 minutes. Even after putting on the alloy armor, the forward with the weight is affected, and it will not take more than an hour and a half.

But the time it takes to infiltrate without alerting the enemy is exponential, as Alloy Armor is hard to move forward silently, so they have to clear all living creatures within 50 meters of each other.

Fortunately, mutant creatures also need to rest, and it is rare for them to wander the road in the middle of the night, which makes their task of "pulling nails" much easier.

Near a junction, when six people squatted down to make a battle plan, Nantes once said that if he encountered something that could not be bypassed, he could take off his alloy armor and quietly touch it, and wipe the opponent's neck with a dagger.

I thought that this proposal would move everyone to tears, but I didn't expect it to be ridiculed by everyone.

"It's a kid after all, and he doesn't know anything about the world." As soon as the second master opened his mouth, the people behind him remained in formation.

"Kid, you have to study hard!"

"What age is it, and you still need to make a move?"

It was the "manager" who kindly poked him in the back, and Nantes turned his head to see that the other party was holding a gray metal egg in his hand. The next moment, the metal egg transformed into a palm-sized wasp, but with a scorpion tail hanging from its tail.

"Well, I'll open your eyes in a moment."

The manager threw 5 hornets out and hovered around them within a 20-meter radius to keep on guard.

Until I saw a rickety mutant emerge 40 meters in front of me, one of the wasps flew silently past, and the scorpion tail catapulted up, right on the back of the opponent's neck. The mutant was killed in an instant without saying a word.

Nantes watched the first view on the team channel and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the "manager". However, he still muttered in his heart, although the technology is very good, it is far from the detection range of Sister Hua. She had warned the approaching mutant a few minutes earlier.

After experiencing the turmoil of the medical examination, Nantes no longer deliberately hides his special abilities. Anyway, everyone knows that he is a little unusual, so let's just use it generously.

He quietly made a gesture of safety, and led the way out of the hidden street corner, and the "manager" followed the letter suspiciously. Sometimes there are no enemies nearby, but Nantes asks everyone to hide in place, and after a while, there will be mutant creatures passing by.

Everyone stared at him like a monster, and he would lip sync every time: "Intuition!" ”

After about two hours, they finally unknowingly touched the roof of a nine-story office building on the periphery of the steel mill.

"Be careful further a, I can sense that mutant giant, and the other party can also sense me, so from now on, I can't scan him, be careful yourself." Sister Hua's reminder made Nantes fall silent, losing Sister Hua's guidance, and if she was at a loss like the last time, she might implicate other teammates in a desperate situation.

"This time, you must not stand stupidly and wait for the monster to approach!"

Nantes gritted her teeth and said softly: "When I get here, my instincts don't work, we don't know anything about the situation inside, what do you say we should do?" ”

"Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles! I'll send my little brother to investigate first! The "Chief" opened a square of the shoulder armor and released a dozen beetles, spiders, and wasps, which silently disappeared into the night.

Zhang Yang gestured to Liu Lang, and he took off the giant on his back and threw it at the entrance of the building.

"Based on our previous research, this guy might be able to stop the minions from going upstairs to search."

"Mandrill" gave them a thumbs up: "I understand, take this as a door god......"
