Chapter 222: Speaking with Facts

When the armored soldier didn't know what attitude to face the comer, the soldier in front of him with a grenade launcher noticed the strange visitor behind him and subconsciously raised his gun to face it.

"Don't be nervous, Juniper called me over to help."

Hearing the name "Juniper", armored soldiers breathed a sigh of relief with soldiers armed with grenade launchers.

"You guys go quickly, just leave it to me here."

"Are you kidding?" The soldier with the grenade launcher looked behind him and saw that Tang Yan had come alone.

His solitary courage is commendable, but from another point of view, it is not a sign of arrogance.

Tang Yan ignored the other party's sarcasm: "I want to ...... There's not much fuel in the fuel tank, and if you think there's still a lot of time to waste, you can ask Juniper and the others to wait a little longer at Taniguchi. ”

The two soldiers were silent.

The armored soldier at the back, carrying the fuel canister, glanced back at him.

Tang Yan didn't say anything more, pushed the mask up, took two steps forward with the half-burned cigarette in his mouth, and pressed the trigger on the two mutant bears.

Now......

The bullet chain advanced rapidly, the bullet casings flew one after another, the gunfire continued to expand, and the light rained down on the two mutant bears.

Roar...... Woo......

Roar...... Woo......

Blood continued to emerge, and the two black shadows retreated little by little after being hit by the bullets.

The armored soldier with the fuel tank on his back did his job very simply, immediately stopped the attack, walked up to another armored soldier, and carried an incapacitated soldier to the valley mouth.

When the remaining two saw him running away, they also chased after him from behind, leaving Tang Yan alone to fight against the two mutant bears.

The guns were firing fiercely, and the bullets were surging like a tide, but the two mutant bears had not turned into a puddle of mud in the rocky field after a long rain of bullets, and they were still roaring...... No, it's not just yelling. Freed from their fear of flames, they attempt to charge forward.

It is worthy of being the most difficult beast under the wasteland sky.

Tang Yan gave a thumbs up to the mutant bear in his heart.

Like this beast, the bullets of a small-caliber assault rifle can't break through its skin at all, and although a heavy weapon such as a machine gun can break through its rigid skin and even cause a blood spattering effect, after the bullet enters, it seems to be intercepted by a net that can cancel the kinetic energy, and cannot inflict heavy damage on the internal organs of the mutant bear.

And as time goes by and the movement of the mutant bear, those bullets that are fired into the body will be squeezed out little by little, making the damage weaker.

Radscorpions are able to use crusts and exoskeletons to create dual shields, as can the two mutant bears......

What made Tang Yan feel ridiculous and sincerely appreciated was that the two mutant bears constantly exchanged their positions in the face of the rain of bullets fired from the machine cannon, becoming the opponent's shield, or being protected by the other party.

Not only does this reduce the damage caused to them by the cannons, but it also gives them a chance to advance quickly.

It is said that the bear is synonymous with stupidity, after experiencing today's scene, Tang Yan felt that this cognition was outrageously wrong, at least the mutant bear that survived the nuclear war still has a very high level of intelligence.

He carried the machine gun and shot backwards, and when the number of remaining bullets fell below the warning value, he suddenly threw the machine gun to the side, and took out two fragmentation grenades and threw them over.

Rumble! Rumble!

The explosion sent up a puff of dust, and the instantaneous flames illuminated the mutant bear's face.

Tang Yan turned his head and ran, his movements so agile that he didn't seem to be equipped with heavy power armor.

When the light flame converged and the mud and sand raised into the sky landed, the two mutant bears looked at the backs that were getting farther and farther in front of them and let out an angry roar, and quickly lay forward, their front and hind paws flicked, and chased towards Tang Yan with a fierce aura.

The soldiers of the Yunmeng mercenary regiment who were ambushed on the high ground on both sides of the valley mouth were speechless and helpless about his performance.

They watched him rush out alone, and watched him take on the task of sniping two mutant bears, and they thought that just like when they fought against radscorpions before, Deputy Commander Tang could easily deal with two mutant bears.

How do you know that he stepped forward and fired a few shots, and found that the machine gun was not easy to use, so he threw aside the weapon that might slow him down, and retreated towards Taniguchi like a dexterous monkey.

"......" Juniper was dumbfounded by his companion's question.

Before Tang Yan left, he just asked them to ambush on the high ground on both sides, and did not explain more details, now that the deputy head of the regiment has been defeated, should they go down to meet their own people and continue to retreat, or wait for the mutant bear to arrive at the mouth of the valley and use the terrain advantage to shoot and snipe?

"He actually lost his own weapon...... the five soldiers of the Yunmeng Mercenary Regiment rescued by Tang Yan had already walked out of the valley, and saw the people rushing in front of them by the light of the searchlight, and they didn't know what to say about him throwing away the machine gun.

Of course, one thing they know very well is that when their lives are in danger, they can escape better is the first choice, and if it has a negative impact on life-saving, even the most expensive firearms must be abandoned.

"Let's go...... Let's go......" Tang Yan urged the soldiers of the Yunmeng Mercenary Regiment who were stunned in front of him as he ran.

"I thought he was so good...... I didn't expect to be a reckless man. The soldier with the grenade launcher was in his heart.

However, not long after he finished speaking, there were three explosions in succession, followed by the miserable purring of the mutant bear.

The soldier looked back and saw multiple rays of light falling from the high ground on both flanks of the valley and falling on the black shadows struggling in the middle.

"Mutant Bear...... He's dead? "The soldier with the grenade launcher and the two armored soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what was happening behind them.

Although Juniper and the others did not see the explosion process below, they had some impressions and speculations.

Tang Yan planted the mine when they didn't find it, and it was still the kind of mine that could be detonated regularly and had the ability to track...... It is similar to the spider mine that was highly respected by the Chinese military before the outbreak of nuclear war.

They also wanted to fire from above at the right time to slow down the pace of the two mutant bears, but they didn't expect that the two idiots were dominated by anger, and they plunged headlong into the trap set by Deputy Commander Tang, turning into a dying and struggling Roshan on the ground.

Tang Yan looked at the mutant bears that were still struggling after being hit by a spider thunder, and secretly admired how strong their vitality was.

At this time, the dog meat sprang out of the nearby shadow area, and attacked the wailing mutant bear in the posture of beating the water dog.

Gradually, the purring grew louder and smaller, and eventually disappeared.

Tang Yan walked over, half-crouched in front of the corpse of the mutant bear, and stretched out his hand towards the wound caused by the dog's meat appendage.

The system's emotionless voice sounded.

"Gene of interest is being extracted...... Finish. ”

"Retrieving the alien gene pool...... Done"

"Allocating system resources...... Finish. ”

"A genetic model of the parasite is being built...... Finish. ”

There is no prompt for new units to be unlocked......

Tang Yan devoted his attention to the system space, swiping the interface to the alien evolutionary tree.

Browsing from the bottom up, a shiny "NEW" icon is found at the cockroach node, showing collagen reorganization.

Collagen recombination increases the movement speed of cockroaches, while exchanging for parasites carrying collagen recombination genes costs 2700 bonus points.

In addition to the collagen restructuring upgrade, there are two "NEW" icons in the newly unlocked Stinging Snake node.

The first NEW icon shows Fury, and the second NEW icon shows carapace growth, both mutation options in the Heart of the Swarm expansion.

The effect of the fury is to increase the attack speed of the stinging snake by 50%, which is thought to correspond to the berserk attack of the mutant bear------ which is said to stimulate the internal organs to secrete a special hormone when it is damaged, resulting in the external changes of red eyes and manic movements.

Carapace is stated in the game to increase the snake's health by 20, but in reality, this should be reflected in the increase in defense.

The Stinger is an Alien unit with high attack and low defense, and Carapace Hypergrowth is a great way to increase its survival rate on the battlefield. Combined with the fact that the mutant bear can withstand machine guns for a long time, it is only reasonable that it can unlock carapace growth.

He then determined the reward points needed to redeem the parasites that carry the Fury and Crustacean genes, which were 1,100 and 10,000 respectively.

It seems that the Stinger is the corresponding to the Terrans' Chariot of Fire and the Goliath-armed Robot in the StarCraft Special Edition Wealth System.

Although the Mutant Bear did not unlock new units, he did give him 3 Worm Unit upgrades, which were no less valuable than radscorpions.

From the perspective of fame, radscorpions and mutant bears are also a level of existence.

"Tang Yan, Tang Yan ......" The shout from behind him woke him up, and he quickly turned his attention back to the real world.

Juniper and the others didn't know when they came down from the high ground on both sides of the valley mouth, and they were standing beside him at this time, looking at him with a very strange look, as if they were wondering what Deputy Head Tang was doing.

The bear bile, bear claws, and bear skin of the mutant bear are all very sought-after treasures in the market, but judging from his actions, it doesn't look like he wants to cut the bear claws and bear bile, which inevitably makes people suspicious and strange about his behavior.

Tang Yan didn't explain his behavior, looked at Juniper and said, "Is there your captain among those five people?" ”

Juniper shook his head.

At this time, the soldier with a grenade launcher walked over, carefully glanced at the mutant bear lying on the ground, and looked at Tang Yan with a little more fear and admiration.

The rest of the soldiers of the Yunmeng Mercenary Regiment also had the same expression, feeling ashamed of their previous underestimation of Tang Yan.

Everyone thought that he had misestimated his strength, and was so frightened by the mutant bear that he couldn't find the north, and even lost the machine gun, but now it seems that this is just a part of the plan, Deputy Commander Tang has already ambushed a device similar to a spider mine at the mouth of the valley, just waiting for the mutant bear to chase after him because of anger.

Tang Yan shook off the mutant bear plasma stained on his hand, and looked at Juniper with a frown: "What, do you still plan to continue?" ”

The expressions of the people of the Yunmeng mercenary group who said this were ugly.

Tang Yan distracted the living corpses so that they could be safe and sound.

Tang Yan got rid of the radscorpion, so that they would not be defeated.

It was Tang Yan who helped them kill the mutant bear and rescued the only five people left in the other team.

Of course he had reason to be angry, and of course he had reason to be upset.

"This ...... This ......" Juniper wanted to say that he wanted to continue, hoping that Tang Yan could continue to lead them forward, but when the words came to his mouth, they became fragmented.

Tang Yan doesn't owe them, they owe Tang Yan

"What the hell are you looking for?" His voice was full of anger, and his eyes were full of anger.

"This ...... This ......" Juniper's face was very ugly.

At this moment, the soldier with the radio on his back shouted in the back, and there was excitement in his tone that could not be concealed.

"I got in touch...... Got in touch with the captain......"

Juniper's eyes lit up, and he told Tang Yan to wait a while, and after speaking, he walked quickly to the soldier carrying the radio, took the microphone and whispered to the characters over there.

Tang Yan walked to a stone next to him and sat down, tore off a piece of mutated double-ended beef jerky from the marching bag and put it in his mouth.

Only then did he notice that the soldiers of the Yunmeng Mercenary Regiment carrying the RPG and their two companions were gathered around the corpse of the mutant bear, cutting the skin, cutting the hands, and digging the guts...... A few people were busy.

Tang Yan couldn't help but turn over a white cigarette, thinking that this group of people really didn't treat themselves as outsiders.

He killed the radscorpion, and he killed the mutant bear, and as a result, the valuable things on the prey went into their pockets.

Boom!

There was the sound of a heavy object falling to the side, and he turned his head to sweep it, and saw that it was Dog Meat who had picked up the machine gun he had thrown on the ground when he lured the mutant bear into the trap.

"Good dog." He touched the face of the jumping worm with his hand.

The face of the soldier with the grenade launcher turned blue.

Good Doggy...... He called the terrible creature with a hideous face, two sharp appendages on his back, and a pair of wings under his side...... This name is really characteristic.

"Alas!" A sigh came from behind the soldier with the grenade launcher, and the medic who came with Juniper shook his head sadly as he wiped the blood from his hands.

One of the wounded, carried by the armored soldiers, took his last breath. The other injured person was better, but his right leg was scratched by a mutant bear and he was unable to walk on his own.

Tang Yan stared coldly at the scene in front of him, he had enough ability to help the two wounded, but in the end he did nothing.

The reason why he followed the Yunmeng mercenary group was just to figure out the purpose of these people to go to Hulu Valley, and at the same time to avoid some detours, after all, from the perspective of logical reasoning, these people are likely to be the same as the goal he came here.

Of course, this kind of goal consistency is most likely manifested in the same destination and different mission content.

But no matter what, it was better to be with the people of the Yunmeng Mercenary Group than for him to explore alone.

......After a while, Juniper hung up the phone and walked to him: "I just talked to the captain on the phone, although they also had some losses during the march, fortunately they have arrived at the target place safely." ”

With that, he unfolded a map with slightly yellowed edges and dotted somewhere on it.

Tang Yan took a careful look at the light of the searchlight and found that the coordinates specified by Juniper were 5 kilometers northwest of Taniguchi, where there was a hill with an altitude of more than 200 meters.
