On the fifth day of the temporary reconnaissance station of the sixth platoon of the military reconnaissance company. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Perhaps a large number of zombies are surrounding the city of Si'an County, and at the same time, a large number of mutant creatures on the periphery are attracted and gather there.
This makes it almost impossible to see many zombies in the surrounding remote places, and occasionally there will be mutant creatures passing by, and the target is also to converge towards the urban area of Si'an County, which does not pose much of a threat to the scouts.
Therefore, Xu Shenzhou and the others came to the sixth row for five days, and except for the skirmishes, they were all safe.
It was late in the evening when a gunshot rang out near the town of Xitan, alarming the soldiers who were on guard around it.
The sound of gunfire came from the northwest, and Liang Kai seemed to know what was going on, so he immediately arranged for the soldiers of the second squad to be responsible for answering it.
Xu Shenzhou has been getting along with Liang Kai and the soldiers of the sixth platoon these days, and he asked to participate in this reception, Liang Kai had a very good impression of Xu Shenzhou, so he agreed to him and issued him a set of equipment and weapons.
The weapons and equipment are all standard equipment for scouts, Zheng Xinwei saw that Xu Shenzhou was actually allowed to go out to fight, and he was also equipped with weapons, he was very hot-eyed, and he also wanted to participate in the battle, but Liang Kai refused.
The soldiers of the second class had seen Xu Shenzhou's skills and strong physical fitness in the battle to clean up the zombies in the small building at first, and recently experienced several small-scale battles together, and they all left a deep impression on Xu Shenzhou.
The terrain to the northwest of the town is more complex and somewhat rugged, where there is a large barren beach, which is not suitable for the growth of crops, and all of them are overgrown with tall weeds.
In addition, there were quite a few muddy puddles in that place, all of which were left by bombs, and then it rained and the water accumulated, and although it was not deep, it was easy to sink into it, and it was a bit like a swamp.
But the gunfire came from that direction, and after Liang Kai gave the order, the soldiers of the second squad did not use armored vehicles and other tools, and they all marched forward on foot.
Xu Shenzhou was originally a team that encountered a large group of mutant creatures and needed them to support and respond.
But when they quickly arrived at the place where the gunshots were close, Xu Shenzhou only saw a group of people walking on foot.
In this group, there were about six soldiers, guarding the four middle-aged and elderly men in civilian clothes in the middle.
It was two old men, a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man, who looked like scholars engaged in research, each carrying a large backpack, and was coming with the procession in this way.
Chasing after this team was not a group of corpses, but just three mutated creatures that looked very similar to the combination of a rhinoceros and a tiger, and Xu Shenzhou himself called them tiger rhinoceros.
However, although there are only three of these mutant creatures, their characteristics are slightly different.
Two of them seem to have inherited the genes of a rhinoceros, very large, the skin is a kind of gray matter, like a rock, but the head that looks like a tiger's head will make people think of the head of a hedgehog at first, and the giant teeth protruding from the two palatal bones are like sickles, which looks very ferocious.
This is completely a mutated type of beast, Xu Shenzhou has seen several different types, he is used to it, and the impression is not so strong.
However, the tiger rhino in the middle who stood up and ran upright brought Xu Shenzhou a visual impact.
This tiger rhino that can stand up and run is a little smaller than the other two, and it is relatively short, with the characteristics of other tiger rhino types, but it is more special, its rocky skin is grayish-black.
But the biggest impact is the head features of this tiger rhinoceros, his face is like a human face, the five views are similar to the facial features of humans, he does not have the sickle-like palate teeth, protruding thick lips on both sides reveal two sharp fangs, gray and green eyes, pointed ears, giving people the first impression of a tiger orc in a game.
Coupled with the centaur monster that Xu Shenzhou saw in the tunnel in Beizhen Town before, as well as the creature that was not like the four, this caused a great psychological impact on Xu Shenzhou.
What's wrong with this world, and why are there such mutated species that look like they are produced by hybridization of multiple genes in this apocalyptic environment?
However, the gunshots that followed interrupted Xu Shenzhou's thoughts.
The two tigers were very strong, and when they went on a rampage, they were able to knock down a large tree by the roots, even if they occasionally fell into a mud pit, but the mud pit would not sink them into it for their size, and they could quickly get out of it.
Several warriors covered the four people in civilian clothes and kept shooting at the tiger rhino, which could only bring some minor injuries, which would only cause the tiger rhino to go berserk.
In particular, the human-faced tiger rhino in the middle is much faster than the other tiger rhinos, and because it is relatively small and very sensitive, those warriors who shoot while running cannot hit him at all, and even if they can hit it, they can't do much damage to it.
The rocky skin of the human-faced tiger rhinoceros is very tough, and if the bullet hits it too far, it will sink into it, and it will not penetrate its skin at once, but after a while, the bullet will be squeezed out by the solid and flexible muscles under the cortex, unless the armor-piercing bullet or the bullet of the sniper rifle may be able to cause fatal damage to it.
The human-faced tiger rushed forward as fast as he could, and his target did not seem to be a few soldiers who had fired, but a few scholars in civilian clothes who were guarded in the middle.
Seeing that the human-faced tiger rhinoceros was about to catch up, one of the warriors was sluggish and well-trained, and pulled out his dagger and stabbed at the human-faced tiger rhinoceros with a loud shout.
However, it is of little use.
The strength of the human-faced tiger rhinoceros was much stronger than that of humans, and his twinkling eyes glanced at the warrior as if with contempt, but he slapped the dagger in the warrior's hand with a single paw, and slammed it into it with his powerful body.
Thump!
The soldier was knocked into the air, flying like a cannonball for several meters before falling to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and then being trampled into the mud by the tiger rhinoceros who came from behind.
Xu Shenzhou rushed there before the other fighters of the second squad.
He watched as the man-faced tiger slammed into a warrior, and then he was about to use his claw to grab the neck of one of the old men, and he couldn't help but speed up, and his body was like a sharp arrow, and at the same time, the lightning reached out and grabbed the old man's clothes and pulled them back hard.
Although the old man fell to the ground, he dodged the fatal blow of the human-faced tiger rhino, and two soldiers who came next to him quickly helped him up and carried him on his shoulders and continued to run.
After Xu Shenzhou pulled away the old man, when he faced the human-faced tiger rhino, he didn't shoot at close range, when he saw the human-faced tiger rhino, he could always think of the centaur he saw in the tunnel.
So when facing the human-faced tiger rhinoceros, Xu Shenzhou hit him in the abdomen with a heavy elbow when the human-faced tiger rhinoceros stretched out an angry claw.
I only felt a sharp pain in my elbow, as if I had hit a stone all of a sudden, but the force of his elbow was very strong, and it could match the strength of the human-faced tiger rhinoceros, and the human-faced tiger rhinoceros stumbled and fell into the mud puddle next to it.
