Chapter 177: Obedience is a Good Habit
The victory at Verdun led to a contraction of the battle line, and many alien creatures began to defend Germany, leaving behind large swaths of devastated cities.
There are still many alien creatures left in place that have not had time to retreat, and Mawson's team is tasked with conducting a carpet search to gradually remove the remaining monsters.
This mission seems safe, but in fact, the danger factor is higher than the large-scale battle.
The intricate city streets and township farms are ideal for alien creatures to hide, and this thing has an extremely developed sense of hearing, even in the dark, it can accurately find its target.
In the sealed and closed street warfare, the human team is bound to be reduced to pieces, and without the powerful firepower to suppress it, only themselves and their comrades around them will be able to rely on it at that time.
"Buzz!"
After putting on the mechanical armor, one transport plane after another soared into the sky and headed straight for the outskirts of Verdun.
The day after the battle, before the fresh blood "liquid" could be injected, the soldiers in the cabin were a mixture of several neighboring squads.
There was no impassioned mobilization for the war, and to this extent, those who survived were all veterans, and besides, there were so many people who died in yesterday's victory that the entire cabin was a little silent for a while.
"Cheer up, guys!"
Fabilano was promoted to Interim Master Chief, "We have survived the most difficult stage, and the light is coming, don't you want to be war heroes like Sergeant Wolataxi?" ”
"Or do you think you're inferior to a?"
His words caused everyone to laugh, and the atmosphere in the cabin suddenly eased a lot, and at this moment, the belly of the plane opened, and the indicator light lit up, reminding everyone to be ready to land at any time.
"Come home alive!!"
Fabirano shouted, and when he pulled down the lifting rope first, he landed one after another behind him, and from the ground, the entire sky was covered with steel bodies.
Mawson did not move, but waited until the plane had passed the best landing place before pulling the landing rope and falling quickly to the ground, he had already made up his mind not to actively participate in the next battle, so as not to bring too many variables to the war because of himself.
Boom!
Mawson landed in a nearby farmland, and after he landed, he didn't observe his surroundings, but chose a random direction and ran away.
But at this moment, he heard a rapid snort behind him, and when he turned around, he found that the big man named Depp was following closely behind him.
"Mawson, you stop me!"
"Don't try to hide this time, I must report what you have done."
"You deserter, coward!"
"Idiot!"
Mawson snorted coldly and didn't care, although he made up his mind to fight passively, it didn't mean that he really didn't do anything.
He has strong mobility, and his own strength far exceeds that of normal people, even if the kinetic energy of the battle armor is exhausted, he is not afraid of the siege of monsters.
So in battle, he plans to expand his range of movement as much as possible, trying his luck on the battlefield to see if he can meet a lone alpha.
Although he himself can't assimilate the blood of Alpha, soldiers can be seen everywhere on the battlefield, and he has no shortage of candidates for experiments.
"Stop!"
There were other people around, so Mawson's speed was not too fast, he walked in front, Depp followed, and the two quickly deviated from the large group.
And at this moment, Depp, who had been following behind Mawson, actually raised his gun and fired a few shots in the air, "Mawson! Stop, you run again, I'll aim my gun at your back next time!" ”
Mawson turned around, opened the safety on the gun, and looked at Depp coldly, with a murderous intent in his heart.
"Quack!"
"Whoosh!"
In the bushes behind Mawson, three mimics suddenly appeared, covered with large patches of decayed and dead leaves, which blended in with their surroundings.
Depp saw the scene behind Mawson, but without saying a word, he turned around and fled, and as he fled, he turned on the automatic gun on his shoulder, aimed the muzzle, and aimed it at Mawson in the distance.
This guy has a vicious mind, he knows that there are no alien creatures on the flat ground, and he knows that Mawson will definitely be the first target of the monster if he gets in the way.
Instead of struggling to aim at the fast-moving alien creatures, it is better to directly target the "shot" at Mawson.
This way, when the monster pounces forward, he can fire a cannonball at the first time, blowing the monster to pieces along with Mawson!
"Haha, you runaway bastard! Die with those monsters! ”
If he was present with ordinary team members, Depp might have tried to cooperate to deal with the three monsters, but he determined that Mawson was just a deserter through Mawson's behavior.
And he was indignant that Mawson was able to survive the Battle of Verdun, and at this time he seized the opportunity and planned to fall into the ground.
Depp retreated, watching Mawson's actions, seeing that Mawson was just looking at him blankly, as if he didn't know anything about the danger behind him, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable pleasure in his heart.
In the past, the repression of extraterrestrial creatures seemed to explode all at once.
"It's coming, it's coming."
"That's it, attack slowly!"
But at this moment, Depp, who was moving, found that a red light flashed not far away, and there was an exaggerated pair of blood-colored long knives in Mawson's hand.
Immediately afterwards, he didn't see any movement from Mawson, and as soon as his hand was empty, a blood-colored long knife whistled and "shot" at him.
"Poof!"
The mechanical armor on his body was like paper paste, and Depp didn't even have time to let out a scream before he was pierced through his chest by the fallen blade thrown by Mawson!
The remaining strength was not reduced, and Depp's figure was driven, and he hung it on the tree behind him with a knife!
"What happened?"
"Why does my chest hurt so much?!" Depp spat blood and opened his mouth weakly.
He struggled to open his eyes, but what he saw made him think he was hallucinating.
Mawson's body jumped like a butterfly, and the armor on his body was as light as nothing, chopping, slashing, stabbing, and slashing, and the three monsters that besieged him were dismembered by him in an instant.
When it landed, it was a stump.
Mawson shook off the blood on the knife, and the next moment appeared in front of Depp hanging from the tree.
"Save ...... Help me! ”
Mawson expressionlessly pulled the long knife out of Depp's chest, and every inch he pulled out was accompanied by a piercing sound of flesh rubbing, and large strands of blood gushed out along the wound.
When Mawson drew the knife, Depp, who had lost his support, collapsed under the tree and was silent.
"Why didn't you listen when you were told to get away?"
Mawson sighed, and after walking more than ten meters, he "shot" the cannon on his back, and blew Depp's body to pieces with one shot.
The knife wound on Depp's body was too obvious, and Mawson didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble after cleaning up the battlefield.
The sky will be dark, and countless assembly signals will rise in the entire war zone.
Mawson picked the one closest to him and hurried back to the camp before dinner.
Back at the barracks, Fabilano, who saw him, was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a complicated tone: "Mawson, have you seen Depp?"
