Chapter 64: Underground
In the next three days, the Alpha Combat Team devastated and captured seven areas, like an incomparable blade, cutting a bloody path through the city.
Whether it was flying in the sky, running on the ground, or nesting in the underground passage, all of them were annihilated one by one.
The team ranked first in the standings, Song Zifang also moved to second place on the individual list, Qin Ming was fourth, and Ah Qing and Chang Jianian, who had the ability to flame, also entered the list.
To achieve such brilliant results, it is natural to pay a corresponding price.
Liu Meng and Tashan were seriously injured, and although they were treated with extremely effective drugs, they still fell into a certain degree of weakness and could only exert six or seven percent of their strength.
Not only the two of them, but the others also had varying degrees of injuries, but with the recovery of healing medicine, they could continue to support high-intensity battles.
In the later stage of the battle, Huang Taotao and Yu Youzi of the sniper group had to step forward in close combat to consolidate the security line, and the tragedy can be imagined.
Alpha's aggressiveness is not an exception, and other combat teams are also full of strength.
Especially those well-known teams, their team points are not very different from Alpha.
As for the previously opportunistic team, life is not so good.
The deeper you go into Lancheng, the larger the area that needs to be captured, and the more and stronger the Zerg you will face.
In this way, the requirements for the combat power of the combat team are very demanding.
Even if they continued to insist on the minimum level of sixty percent annihilation, they encountered great difficulties and even died in battle.
Stuck in a block, the teams abandoned their previous interception plan and cleverly turned back, accumulating points by eliminating the Zerg that had been spared earlier.
Of course, there are also teams who choose to play steadily and steadily throughout the whole process, focusing on safety, but in this way, the position in the middle and upper reaches is destined to have nothing to do with them.
Ephemeris January 5, 2023, this is the fifth day of the hunt race.
Alpha entered Area 32 and, as usual, launched a stormy attack.
Qin Ming, who retreated from the main battlefield, smashed the ground with one foot and jumped into the collapsed pit.
Lancheng covers an area of more than 30,000 square kilometers, and with such a vast area, the underground naturally extends in all directions.
In addition to the transportation corridors of the vacuum maglev trains, there are also intricate energy transmission channels and evacuation facilities, which are woven into a vast underground network.
After the Zerg occupied Lancheng, they transformed the underground network into a suitable environment for them to live in.
There are quite a few Zerg hiding here, and Qin Ming has scrapped six lightsabers in the process of killing them in the past few days.
As the gravel landed on the ground, Qin Ming stepped out of the enveloping range of the thick smoke and dust, held the lightsaber in his hand, and steadily walked into the deep darkness in front of him.
The floor and walls of the passage are covered with fungus blankets, which exude a sour and unpleasant smell, but maintain a certain humidity, which is completely different from the dry floor.
After walking for a while, he encountered the alarmed Zerg, which were several double-pincer insects.
These zergs are two meters long, bucket-thick with a large head, signature horn pincers, and several octopus-like tentacles on their tails.
They are not as lethal as cockroaches, but they are extremely difficult to deal with, and the main factor is that they have a multi-stage body, that is, each section of the body has all the organs needed to survive.
Even if they are cut into several pieces, they can control some of the corpses to wriggle and escape, relying on the nutrients of the fungus blanket to regrow a complete body.
Therefore, in order to destroy them, it is necessary to destroy the vital organs of each of their bodies.
When the two sides were still more than ten meters apart, the double-pincer insect began to arch its body, and the tentacles on its tail also grabbed the ground, like a spring of extreme compression.
Qin Ming watched their actions and walked forward indifferently.
As the enemies came at him, he picked up his walking speed, and while staggering and dodging attacks, the bright and yellow lightsabers scattered several sharp trajectories at the same time.
The bodies of several insects suddenly split in two in mid-air, and the smooth section of their bodies could clearly see the composition of each section of their bodies.
Of course, this was only a fleeting picture, because the blood was soon splattered and gushed out.
Bang bang bang.....
The corpses smashed on the fungus blanket one after another, making a muffled sound, and then the breath of life quickly withered.
Qin Ming had already expected the ending behind him, and continued to walk forward without looking back.
Before entering the underground, he memorized all the road maps provided by the military, not to mention that the helmet mask would also show the location coordinates, so the action was not troublesome.
Over the next hour, he cleaned up more than two hundred Zerg, including three C-class Zerg.
It might have been dangerous for others to encounter a C-Class Zerg in a cramped, unsheltered underground space, but he had a much more physique than usual.
There is no need to dodge the enemy's charge, and there is no need to back down in the face of the Zerg's arthropod blade, all he has to do is crush the past.
Bang!
The entire solid rock wall cracked and exploded, and the C-class white-fronted beetle that withstood the terrifying impact blasted into the underground warehouse like a cannonball.
Not only did they break a load-bearing column with a diameter of four or five meters, but they also smashed a large number of heavy alloy boxes along the way.
It wasn't until it hit the wall on the other side, and the whole white-fronted beetle was embedded in the wall, that this terrifying kinetic energy was unloaded in all directions, spreading out a spider's web-like crack.
If Song Zifang saw this scene, he would definitely not have those superfluous worries about the previous assignment.
Gravel fell from the broken hole, and then Qin Ming's figure appeared, his right arm was thicker than usual, and he was slowly returning to its original state at this time.
Since digesting most of the Zerg energy, most of the bound origin energy in his body has been liberated.
This energy, which does not belong to the general energy level, is extremely huge, and even if it only drives part of it to strengthen the arm, it will also appear to be uncontrollable swelling.
However, as long as you step into the sky again and your control increases, this should not be the case.
Walking into the underground warehouse, there was a chest in front of him, and he used his combat boots to smash the lock on the chest, which was not strong.
As the lid of the box was opened, the contents of the reserve were immediately scattered.
In addition to outdated firearms, grenades, and ammunition, there are also short knives, signal mirrors, small flashlights, wire saws, and other messes.
"This place is supposed to be the R9 strategic reserve warehouse in Lancheng."
Qin Ming looked around and confirmed his location.
It's quite large, but it seems to have become an egg room for the Zerg.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he picked up a few submachine guns from the ground and loaded them with magazines.
Doodoo !!
The muzzle of the gun spewed tongues of fire and strafed at the top of the warehouse, and the dense eggs hanging from it shattered one after another, splattering a large amount of viscous liquid.
After cleaning up the eggs, he threw away the guns he had picked up along the way, stepped on the wet ground, and left the hallway at the other end of the warehouse.
The repetitive hunt was rather monotonous, but he didn't feel bored, and the act was as much a part of his life as eating and drinking.
By the time he cleared to the very end of the ground in Area 36, more than four hours had passed.
Walking alone in the relatively wide train passage, he connected to Song Zifang's communication.
"Qin Ming, how is the situation of the underground sweep?"
In addition to Song Zifang's voice, he also heard a large number of noisy sounds, including the shouts of the alpha people, and the sharp sound of the Zerg's resoluteness, and the battle on the ground seemed to be fierce.
"I don't have anything to ask here...."
Qin Ming stopped speaking because he had already felt a faint vibration.
He pressed the button on the helmet, and a radar scan suddenly popped up on the inner wall of the mask, from which it could be seen that there were many unusually red and bright points of light approaching this side at extreme speed.
Here it comes!
He turned around suddenly, and suddenly saw more than a dozen places on the wall of the passage in the distance bursting at the same time, and there was a huge figure that pierced through it and penetrated into another wall and left.
"Captain, there are a large number of pit worms underground, they should be heading towards you, pay more attention." Qin Ming solemnly reminded.
The tunnel insect has a stronger digging ability than a drill machine, and its open body can accommodate a large number of insects, and can transport troops to key areas, so it is also called a troop transport insect.
If the Alpha people don't take precautions in time, there is likely to be a gap in the already struggling defense, resulting in more casualties.
Song Zifang immediately thought of the seriousness of the matter, and immediately replied: "I know!" You ..... yourself"
But before he could finish speaking, the communication had already been interrupted.
