Chapter 35, It's a Secret
The next day, just after dawn, the scattered gunfire woke everyone up. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the courtyard where the army is stationed is relatively remote, it does not mean that you can sit back and relax, especially after those mermaid monsters found out here, and a large group of monsters finally found the door.
It's a hybrid force of Facelings and Merfolk monsters, and they're frantically pounding the steel gates. A dozen or so soldiers shot down from the upper floor, rifle bullets could break the monster's skin, but they didn't hit it deeply, and it would take at least seven or eight bullets to kill a faceling.
Chen Hu rushed to the front, standing a few meters behind the gate, holding a submachine gun in his hand, and any faceless monster that tried to climb in couldn't escape his divine shot.
"Little bunnies, save some bullets, and we'll keep them to feed those ugly monsters in the Red Sea District." A group of soldiers responded with a bang, shooting at the faceless monsters outside the door.
There are not many bullets carried by the army, and a lot of them have been consumed in bits and pieces these days, and they really can't stand the toss. Chen Hu pondered whether he should throw away the rifle and directly operate the machete.
"Hey, what about Brother Li and the others? Shouldn't he be absent from such a lively scene? Chen Hu took the time to look back a few times, but he couldn't find Li Yan's figure.
Zhao Jianjun and several officers stood on a high platform and looked into the distance with binoculars.
"Camp Commander Zhao, this situation is not good! Although there are only a few dozen monsters surrounding us, the monsters in the distance have been gradually attracted to us! ”
"Yes, Camp Commander Zhao, what should we do?"
Zhao Jianjun frowned, stared at a pair of bloodshot eyes, and said slowly: "Let the artillery be ready, ready to shoot at any time." ”
The Chihai battalion at this time had three military trucks, two armored vehicles, one tank, three small steel guns. Although it's a little shabby, it's still able to block this wave of monster attacks for the time being.
Zhao Jianjun was thinking about the future, if too many supplies were consumed here, then the hope of rescuing Chihai would be even more slim.
"Battalion Commander Zhao! I'm afraid this will attract more monsters......"
"I know, so there's no way to tell the front-line fighters that they can grow as many ranks as they kill monsters! Whoever deserts will be summarily executed! ”
“…… Be! ”
In troubled times, the use of heavy canons, sticks and carrots can stimulate the combat effectiveness of soldiers.
Zhao Mingzhi stood beside Zhao Jianjun, not saying a word, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After nearly ten days of training, the front-line warriors have already learned some things about dealing with Facelings. Although these big guys have a lot of strength and hard scales, their speed is relatively average, and their weaknesses are similar to those of humans. As long as you keep a certain distance from them, it is not difficult to destroy. The most difficult to deal with are the merfolk monsters, which can easily climb over the fence and pounce directly from behind.
"You look at the door, I'll deal with the merfolk." Chen Hu knew that it was powerful, and he didn't care about hiding it, so he picked up the machete and pounced on a mermaid monster, and took off one of its arms, and then the blade of the knife tilted, tearing the mermaid's stomach open.
He deliberately reserved some strength, making people feel that he was just more powerful, and he hadn't reached the point of "superman" yet.
"Brother Chen, let's help you." Wu Gang, Hu Feng, and Ma Longyuan also came over to help, and the four of them had already developed a tacit understanding of battle, like a firefighting team, running around the camp, killing all the mermaids and monsters who jumped into the wall, and everyone who watched was stunned.
"Awesome!"
"I didn't expect Wu Gang and them to be so powerful, could it be that they were instructed by Chen Hutou?"
"I'm afraid that several of them have been in charge of going out to find food recently, and they probably have experienced a lot of fighting."
Some of the soldiers in charge of logistics only felt more and more idle, and even had time to chat.
"Luckily, there aren't many of them, so they're really hard to deal with." Hu Feng wiped his sweat.
"Quick, pretend to be out of breath, acting too awesome will be suspected." Chen Hu reminded.
"Hey, it's really not happy, it's better for us to go out and kill all sides by ourselves!" Wu Gang was a little unhappy.
"Kill so many and feel invincible? If you really rush out, you probably don't even know how you died. ”
"Hey, what about Brother Li? Why didn't you see him from the beginning of the battle? ”
"I didn't see it either."
The four of them were puzzled, only to feel that there were fewer and fewer monsters around them, and the pressure was getting lighter and lighter.
"Lao Zhao, it seems that those monsters are paper tigers~" Zhang Congxin put down the binoculars, breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped his forehead covered with cold sweat.
Zhao Jianjun frowned, he clearly saw that the monsters in the distance had gathered in this direction just now, and it stands to reason that the pressure on defense should be getting bigger and bigger, right? Why is the pressure so small?
"Report sir! The monsters around the camp have been cleared, and there are a few remains, and the frontline brethren ask to take the initiative! A soldier shouted with excitement on his face.
"Nonsense! How can you take the initiative in a defensive battle? Zhang Congxin immediately reprimanded.
Zhao Jianjun thought for a moment, and only felt that something was wrong with the situation, so he ordered: "Let the first class go out to investigate, and if you encounter a small number of monsters, you will come back as soon as the number is large!" ”
"Yes!"
Soon, the three members of the first group went out of the courtyard through the open side door and cautiously explored outside.
One of the three was a familiar face, the warrior who was the first to see the mermaid monster and was called "Lucky Star". At that time, he was "lucky" to escape, and this time he was "lucky" to be chosen.
The three of them traveled all the way, only encountering a few scattered Facelings, all of which they easily managed.
"Cut, why are there only these few? Lao Tzu is still seven or eight years away from being promoted to lieutenant. The leader said as he picked up a small bone from the dead monster.
After death, the Faceling's body will quickly shrink and decay, turning into a pile of bones, including a horseshoe-shaped bone near the jaw, and the monster has only one piece of this shape in its body, which can be used as proof of killing the monster.
As long as this small bone is taken back, it is considered to kill a faceless monster, and the soldiers jokingly call it "military merit bone".
"Lucky Star" was stimulated by the mermaid monster, and it felt a bit like a soldier.
"Hey...... Why do I always feel that something is wrong? I saw a lot of faceless monsters before the war just now, why didn't there really fight so much? Do you say they are ...... Is it hidden? He said in a slightly trembling voice.
"How many, are you wrong? You kid was scared out of the last time, right? ”
"I really saw it!"
"Don't talk about it, let's go over there and have a look, maybe there will be some slips through the net."
"Hey! Feed! Slow down! Don't leave me! ”
"Lucky Star" quickly followed, his calves and stomach trembled a little, and he couldn't tell which way his teammates had taken when he passed through an intersection.
"Hey...... Wouldn't it, you can get lost? "Lucky Star" trembled even more, and groped his way forward.
Vaguely, he seemed to feel a faint red mist floating in the air around him, and the red mist grew thicker and thicker as he advanced.
When he turned a corner, his eyes suddenly opened up, but "Lucky Star" was stunned by the scene that appeared in front of him.
Is that...... A fog as thick as blood, monster bones that covered the streets, and a figure standing in the middle of the blood mist, carrying a Ugin Daguan knife.
Fear gripped Lucky Star's heart, and he felt that he was not facing a single figure, but a monster within a monster. The bones of the monsters in that place were his trophies, adorning his victories.
The figure spotted him, smiled at him, and put a finger to his lips.
"Shh......h Don't talk nonsense, it's a secret. ”
