One hundred and twelve-narrow road encounter
In this way, because the two of Kaga have not made up their minds to tell the truth, everyone has their own hearts and goes straight forward.
I don't know if the alien creatures stationed here have dug many marching passages on the original foundation of the cave, and the further you go inside, the more forks in the road become.
If you want to describe it, it's like a spider's web spreading out from all directions.
Although everyone left a mark every time they passed through the fork in the road, and the alien creatures killed along the way could also serve as a signpost to some extent, gradually no one had any confidence that they would make it out alive.
This is the case on their side, and the situation of the other two squads may not be much different.
This cave is a living labyrinth. According to preliminary estimates, there may be more than a hundred forks in the road. In all fairness, at this scale, let alone three squads, even if one or two hundred people were dispatched, it would be impossible to complete the exploration in one day.
Before the official departure, no one thought that the scale of this labyrinth would be so large. Naturally, no one will think about bringing transmitters and reconnaissance drones either.
As a result, by the time they realized that something was wrong, everyone was already in the middle of it.
Before they knew it, they had advanced for more than thirty minutes, but the scene they saw along the way had hardly changed in the slightest.
This feeling of stepping into the abyss step by step made everyone feel furious in their hearts.
It is impossible to turn back now.
Even if the markers are not destroyed, the signposted corpses remain, and the guilt of abandoning their mission and leaving their companions behind will haunt them for the rest of their lives.
So, go ahead, shall we?
There were so many forks in the road inside the cavern that even if they stood still and the members of the other two squads suddenly decided to come here to meet them, it would take at least twenty or thirty minutes to get there. If there is any unexpected situation, is it really possible for them to hold out for twenty or thirty minutes until reinforcements arrive?
Although everyone is a professional soldier, and they are also prepared to die in battle before coming here, but it is nothing to be meaninglessly wiped out without anyone noticing, once you think of this possibility, it is still very permeable.
In the beginning, the idea was just a spark. However, as time slowly passed, there was no further news from the other two teams, and the only thing that accompanied them in the dark was the smell of corpses and blood, and everyone's morale was gradually eroded.
I already feel that I am not trusted, and the fact that I am alone and cannot see the end is even worse.
At this moment, the only thing that sustains everyone is the pride of being a member of the military department, and the hope of being able to kill the enemy leader and turn the tide of the battle.
It didn't matter if it was by himself or by Ling Chujing's side to complete the task.
As soon as the target is successfully solved, the evacuation will begin immediately. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if you can't leave alive, you can be regarded as a well-deserved death on the premise of completing the task.
There are definitely not a few people who think this way.
Then, I don't know if the prayers of the people in their hearts somehow reached the ears of the gods......
βββββ!β
As they walked forward, suddenly, a hurried footsteps that did not belong to them reached everyone's ears. It was accompanied by the sound of what appeared to be a wild beast roaring.
Avril was quick to react, gesturing to the group behind her, and unleashing the "Mythical Flame" wrapped around the weapon.
Including Akagi and Kaga, the rest of the people quickly entered a state of preparation.
Still, there is one question that lingers in the minds of the people.
Since the end of the call with Ling Chujing just now, they have been following the instructions of the Admiral, with the mentality of "meeting up with the friendly forces ahead".
Since there are many xenomorph corpses lying on the ground along the way, and the location is only a few steps away from the last found corpse, there should be no mistake in the route of travel.
Unexpectedly, the last corpse to appear on the road was so close to the enemy soldiers on patrol, and the expected reinforcements disappeared as if they did not exist, and everyone's hearts were unconsciously covered with a layer of haze.
However, after all, everyone was a well-trained soldier, and they quickly suppressed the uneasiness in their hearts along with their doubts.
Why this is happening, and what to do after that, these are not things to think about now. As a warrior, the first thing to do is to take out the enemy in front of you.
While waiting for the enemy to approach, everyone held their breath and did not dare to make a sound. Avril and the two of them, who were standing at the front, listened to the movement in front of them and tightened the weapons in their hands.
Unlike the "Calamity", which is different from humans, they have a very limited range of vision in the dark.
Without a light source, the only thing you can rely on is your sense of hearing and the instincts you have honed on the battlefield.
As a battle ground, the passage was too narrow.
There is only one chance to make a shot.
If they can't do it with a single hit, the players in the rear will be thrown into chaos because they don't know if they should risk injuring them by mistake.
So, you can't miss it.
With this belief, the two glanced at each other in the dark.
Then, at the moment when the owner of the footsteps stepped within five meters of the two of them, the two tacitly launched a charge towards the rush.
The "metaphorical energy" skillfully circulated through the two of them, and then infused into the weapons. The size of the blade doubled in an instant.
While making the weapon gigantic, the sharpness of the chivalrous weapon is increased several times, which is the favorite skill of the veteran military melee membersβββ "Blade of the Army"!
It can easily tear through the hard skin of alien creatures, while also compensating for the fact that humans have short hands and feet, and cannot effectively attack the "Calambules" before they can reach them. What's more, as you become proficient, you can adjust the ratio between gigantic and sharp.
Back then, the reason why Ji Yuehua was able to kill the A-Rank level digging dragon was because of the genius Bayi Yonglin covering for him, but more importantly, it was because he comprehended this "metaphorical skill" under the guidance of the former.
It's a literal raid.
With a flash of blue light, the heads of the two alien creatures flew into the air, dying without knowing it.
And Kaga and the others, taking advantage of the light to illuminate the field of vision in front of them, launched an attack on the rest of the alien creatures.
