87_87057 In the evening of the second day, the outnumbered but ineffective team finally arrived near the US-17 nest.

About five kilometers away from the lair, Zilong chose a relatively dry high ground and set up camp.

It is said to be camping, but in fact, it is just a hammock tied to each person in the dense branches.

As soon as the team settled down, it was getting dark.

For fear of alarming the aliens, Zilong did not allow the bonfire to be lit, so he took out five night vision goggles and arranged for several groups of people to be on duty at night.

Just from the arrangement of the night watch, it can be seen that this Zilong is a very realistic person.

All those he found useful did not need to be on duty at night, and those who he felt were of little use in the next battle would be placed on his list of night guards every night.

Some people also objected to his arrangement, but he only used the sentence "What else can you do besides being on duty?" He pushed the other man back.

Among the three Bai Qi, Bai Qi is a spare deputy because he has the skill of "shield mastery", needless to say, he naturally does not need to be on duty at night, Huang Mao's skill of "integrating into nature" is the best scout in the tropical rainforest, and Qin Qing, as a healer, is also exempt from being on duty at night.

After nightfall, it suddenly rained heavily, and Bai Qi, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened again.

In order to resist the alien acid, the waterproof of the iron-blooded armor was very good, and the heavy rain poured on the armor, but it could stay dry inside, and Bai Qi quickly fell asleep again.

The heavy rain did not stop until the early hours of the next morning.

Early in the morning, when the sky cleared, Zilong gathered the three trainee rangers in the team who had mastered the skills of integrating into nature.

It was only at this time that Bai Qi knew that Zilong was also a trainee ranger.

Zilong gave instructions to the other three trainee rangers, and the four of them plunged into the jungle and disappeared without a trace.

More than three hours later, the four trainee ranger brigades returned to the camp one after another.

Zilong gathered everyone together, and the four trainee rangers successively recounted what they saw when they were scouting.

According to the situation brought back by the trainee ranger, about five kilometers away from the front of the camp, there is a low mountain less than four hundred meters, and there are several cave entrances at the foot of the low mountain, these caves are connected to an underground dark river below the low mountain, and the alien lair is just below the belly of the mountain, in the intricate caverns washed out by the underground dark river.

The hill was in shambles, and almost every inch of it was overturned by bombs, but due to the blockage of the hill, the bombardment had little effect on the alien lair below.

Due to the complicated terrain in the cave, except for Zilong, the other three rangers did not dare to go deep into the cave.

Huang Mao didn't even enter the cave under Bai Qi's advice, but according to Bai Qi's instructions, after discovering the cave, he squatted in the jungle not far from the entrance of the cave to observe, but he saw a lot of alien activity rules, so, when telling, except for Zilong who went deep into the cave, Huang Mao, who was the weakest, had the most useful information in his words.

Zilong probably finished what he saw when he entered the cave, and took out a palm-sized machine from the storage space. After a simple operation on the machine, he shot out various columns of light of different colors from the dense holes on the machine, and these pillars of light converged into a three-dimensional map above the machine.

The thing Zilong took out was called "Complex Topographic Mapper".

Bai Qi had seen this thing in the Free Man Electronic Mall, which could detect the surrounding terrain and landforms through a highly penetrating electromagnetic wave, and draw the detected terrain into a three-dimensional holographic map.

Just hold this object and turn around the inside of a building, and the instrument can easily draw an accurate 3D map of the building.

When Bai Qi saw this thing for the first time, he thought that if this thing was combined with some reconnaissance professionals with stealth skills, it would be a rare tactical item.

However, this kind of powerful thing, the price is even more outrageous, to ask for a blue evolution crystal and more than 5,000 survival points, Bai Qi and the three of them are short of resources, and they almost can't even make up the cost of strengthening, so naturally they don't have extra resources to buy this kind of thing.

Above the "Complex Topographic Mapper", the holographic map composed of light and shadow is the low mountain that Zilong and the others are talking about.

Zilong pointed to the dark river that crossed the mountain from northwest to southeast, and said, "This dark river is located about fifty meters below the mountain, and it has eroded a huge and complex cave system under the mountain. ”

"According to the scanning of the mapper, there are about thirty aliens in this nest, and most of their activities are concentrated in this section of the cave directly below the mountain, and most of the alien hatching rooms of this nest are also concentrated in this area."

He pointed to a branch cave on the edge of the Dark River Cave and said, "The Alien Queen's lair is here, this place seems to be on the edge of the mountain, but to get here, you have to go through the entire Alien Lair. ”

"There are twenty-eight people in our team, but there are actually only ten people who can pose a threat to the aliens."

"Our advantage is that among these ten people, there are three MT and one deputy T, but this is precisely our disadvantage, that is, the attack power is not enough, if we gather these ten people together, we can only deal with seven or eight aliens at the same time at most, and we can't solve it quickly."

"If we launch a frontal attack on the alien lair, and we can't do it quickly, we will inevitably lead out the aliens of the entire lair, and because the underground caverns are connected in all directions, we will definitely fall into the encirclement of a large number of aliens, and finally the whole army will be annihilated."

"According to the information I got from the military, the alien digestive system is very powerful, they can not only digest the organic matter obtained from the body of animals and plants, but also directly swallow minerals, directly absorb useful elements from it, and even can directly absorb energy from the sun, however, their main source of daily energy is still obtained from organic matter, and the energy contained in the animal body is much higher than that of the plant body, so these bodies are powerful, and the energy consumption is much greater than that of ordinary creatures.

"According to this characteristic, I built yì, divided the ten people with combat effectiveness in our team, divided into three groups, and ambushed at the three entrances where the aliens often entered, and hunted the aliens that left the nest to hunt, so as to weaken the number of aliens in the nest."

Speaking of this, Zilong looked at Abel and Earl and asked, "I wonder if you have any better plans for this battle plan?" ”

Both Abel and Earl shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections.

Zilong continued: "Okay, Abel and Earl, one is a paladin and the other is a dark knight, both are official MT professionals, so naturally they should lead a group alone, and the third group will be led by me, and Gangyan will serve as the MT of the third group, but Gangyan is not a formal professional, and it is a little reluctant to do MT." ”

Speaking of this, he pointed at Bai Qi and said, "It's up to this Li Mu to assist him." ”

Li Mu was a famous Warring States general that Bai Qi liked very much, and he used his name as his code name.

"Because of my lack of attack power, I also need Leng Feng's assistance," Leng Feng is the Viper, who is pretending to be a trainee Darkwalker at this time.

Speaking of this, Zilong looked up at Abel and Earl and said, "I took three people away, and the two of them have no opinion?" ”

Abel and Earl shrugged and pouted, indicating that they didn't care at all. In the eyes of the two, in addition to Bai Qi's lv2 shield mastery skills, the green shield can barely block the attack of the alien, the green war spear in his hand is only able to pierce the alien's carapace, and there are no attack skills, there is no threat to the alien at all, and it is really a bit reluctant to count him into the elite team.

Seeing the movements of Abel and Earl, Zilong couldn't help but glance back at the poisonous snake, and then said, "Since the two of you have no opinion, then ask the two of you to choose the team members." ”

Able chooses the Viper Squad's trainee mage "Doctor" and one of his own trainee dark rangers named "Gunner".

The Dark Knight chose Feng Yan and one of his apprentices, Bell, to be the Darkwalker.

The Gunner and Bell are both the strongest players under Abel and Earl.

After that, the three groups each selected a trainee priest and a trainee ranger, this time Zilong let Abel and Earl choose first, not surprisingly, Qin Qing and Huang Mao, who had the worst strength, were left, Zilong quietly chose the two, without arousing the slightest suspicion of Bai Qi and the three of them.

In the end, Zilong asked everyone to take out their communicators and unify the communication frequency.

After instructing the rest of the men to hold the camp, the three teams burrowed into the jungle and soon disappeared without a trace.

After entering the jungle, Zilong ordered Huang Mao to explore the way ahead, and he led a large army to follow Huang Mao about thirty meters behind.

The team carefully groped their way forward, and the five-kilometer journey took nearly an hour.

Huang Mao, who was exploring the way ahead, suddenly stopped, and used the communicator to tell everyone that he had reached his destination.

Zilong gestured for everyone to lower their speed and move forward slowly.

Everyone came to Huang Mao's side and found that the front suddenly became cheerful.

From the gap in the dense bushes, there was a scorched earth outside the bushes, and there were many craters, and a hundred meters away, on a hill more than three hundred meters high, the brown humus was completely turned up, revealing the blue rocky mountain inside, and there was no trace of the originally dense jungle at this time.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Bai Qi couldn't help but smack his tongue, the human air force, in this small land of square kilometers, I don't know how many bombs have been dropped.

Bai Qi was looking at him in a daze, someone patted him on the shoulder, he looked back, it turned out to be Zilong, he woke up the shocked crowd, waved his hand, and still let Huang Mao explore the way thirty meters in front of him, walking forward around the edge of this scorched earth.

Everyone went around to the back of the mountain, and along the way, Bai Qi saw seven or eight caves of different sizes at the foot of the mountain, all of which led to the caves eroded by the dark river below the mountain.

On the back side of the mountain, beneath the smooth and steep mountain wall, there are three caves that are very close to each other.

Coming to the dense forest directly opposite the mountain wall, Zilong motioned for everyone to stop.

Everyone observed at the edge of the forest for a while, Zilong arranged for Huang Mao to guard the edge of the forest, and led everyone to retreat fifty or sixty meters back, so that everyone waited in place, and he left the team alone and got into the dense forest
