Chapter 61: The Trap and the Bloody Battle (2)

The two sides confronted each other for a moment, and finally, in a low and loud rat call, the rats thirty or forty meters away took the lead in attacking.

"With a grenade!" Coulson immediately gave the order.

In the face of a dense crowd of thousands of rats, it is difficult for ordinary bullets to play a role, so Coulson ordered the use of grenades with range blasting ability as soon as he came up, intending to kill more rats in a short period of time.

In an instant, more than a dozen grenades exploded in the swarm of rats, and there was no need for verbal communication at all, and the agents who had cooperated tacitly on weekdays did not let the explosion range of a grenade overlap, and at this time, at least nearly 10,000 rats were either dead or disabled, unable to take half a step forward.

But the dead and injured rats were not a big loss to a swarm of rats with a total of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, and countless rats behind them stepped on the corpses of their companions, and then rushed towards Bucky and the others.

In the face of the approaching rat swarm, these S.H.I.E.L.D. agents showed extraordinary combat qualities, except for the three agents who were still shooting grenades into the most dense areas of the rat colony, the remaining agents fell to the ground, the muzzles of their guns as close to the ground as possible, parallel to the ground, and continued to shoot at the incoming rats. In doing so, one bullet can pass through four or five or more mice, saving the most ammunition.

In this way, the two sides were frozen there for a short time, and many rats could not penetrate the fire network formed by the agents, and the agents consumed a lot of ammunition, but they were never able to repel the rats.

Although the situation on the field is in a stalemate, Bucky feels that something is not good, and the grenades are depleting too quickly.

These agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. were able to maintain the stalemate on the field, and the biggest contributor was those grenades with a killing radius of three or four meters, if a grenade could land in the most dense place with rats, it could often kill and injure hundreds or even thousands of rats, which greatly relieved the pressure on those agents lying on the ground.

But each person carries a limited number of grenades, and each of these agents has a dozen or so ordinary magazines, but there are often only three or four grenades. At the beginning of the battle, each of them had used up a grenade, and the three agents who were firing the grenades had already started using the grenades handed to them by the others, and even then, Bucky estimated that in another three or four minutes, his side would run out of grenades.

Suddenly, Bucky seemed to understand the purpose of the monster, ordinary bullets could not hurt the monster at all, maybe it launched such a large wave of rats to attack its side, precisely to consume its own more powerful weapons.

Thinking of this, Bucky hurriedly shouted to the few people who were firing grenades: "Each of you has a few grenades, don't forget, that monster hasn't appeared yet, we can't expect to kill that monster with ordinary bullets!" ”

Bucky's words immediately reminded the red-eyed agents that the rat swarm in front of them was just an appetizer, and that the monster that served as the main meal had not yet appeared.

The three agents responsible for firing the grenades immediately unloaded the grenades still in their guns, fell to the ground, and began to eliminate the rats with normal bullets, just like the remaining agents.

At this time, Bucky was the only one standing, armed with two Edelman shortswords, and did not join the battle, but threw his assault rifle and all the bullets to Hawkeye, who was not holding a gun.

The current defense line is quite solid, and Bucky did not join the battle to observe the situation on the battlefield, hoping to find an opportunity to break through; The second is to conserve physical strength, if that monster appears, with its invulnerable defense, I am afraid that only Bucky can cause effective damage to it.

Losing the suppression of the grenade, Bucky found that the firepower network constructed by those agents began to shrink gradually, and after paying countless lives, the rat group was only a dozen meters away from Bucky and the others, and what was worse was that everyone's ammunition was running out, and I am afraid that they could not maintain such a firepower network for long.

With an idea, Bucky unloaded the oxygen cylinder behind him and shouted at Hawkeye, and then threw the oxygen cylinder more than ten meters away, where the rats were most dense. Hawkeye reacted quickly, and the moment the oxygen cylinder hit the ground, a shot hit the mouth of the bottle, and the sparks from the bullet detonated the oxygen cylinder at once.

Although there are no steel balls used to increase the lethality in the oxygen cylinder, it seems that the lethality is insufficient, but the scope of its explosion is much larger than that of a grenade, and at this time, all the rats in a radius of four or five meters were blown away, and a vacuum area appeared. Although most of these rats that were blown up were not fatally injured, the impact of the explosion made them ineffective for a short period of time, and they would not cause trouble for Bucky and the others again.

β€œYES!” Hawkeye, who had detonated the oxygen cylinder, screamed excitedly at his blow, and then removed the oxygen cylinder from his back and handed it to Bucky.

After the rats had filled the vacuum, Bucky did the same, and once again cleaned up a large area of rats with an oxygen cylinder.

The two oxygen cylinders completely relieved the pressure on the agents, and gradually forced the rat colony back twenty meters away. The agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. were a little relieved, there were still more than a dozen oxygen cylinders, and with the remaining ammunition now, there was still a good chance of escaping.

However, Bucky stopped several agents who were about to remove their oxygen cylinders, the oxygen content in the environment they were in now was not high, he had a super physique, Hawkeye was also talented, and his physique was also excellent, and he didn't care about the low oxygen level here. But the other agents, including Coulson, were afraid that they would be incapacitated due to lack of oxygen, so Bucky would not use the trick of detonating the oxygen cylinder until he had to.

Through the searchlight, Bucky found that the army of rats that could not see the edge just now had been killed and wounded, and from a distance, he could already see the end of the rat swarm forty or fifty meters away, as long as the rat swarm on the last twenty meters of the road section was defeated, he and the others could be regarded as escaping.

"Forward, most of the rats have been eliminated, as long as we get out of this dead end, we will be safe!"

At Bucky's command, the agents began to crawl on the ground, trying to break out of the rat's encirclement.

Just when everyone had just advanced five or six meters, suddenly, a tail like a long whip stretched out of the sewage ditch around everyone like lightning, and immediately swept the two agents who were caught off guard into the sewage ditch.

"Joyce! Stop! Agent Duncan reacted, immediately stood up, and shot into the sewage.

"Damn! I didn't expect that monster to hide in the sewage! Bucky cursed in his heart, clenching his short sword in both hands, waiting to fight the monster to the death!
