014. The Secret of the Town

"It's not that we've lost contact." Borg also walked to Zhao Yu's side at this time, "According to the signals coming back, someone reported that 'it feels a little strange here', and then there was a violent cough, wheezing, and then there was nothing. ”

"Nothing?"

"Ah, to be precise, there are no valuable clues on the surveillance screen, and the camera doesn't catch anything, except for the soldier who fell to the ground." "Anyway, you can understand the whole thing like this - the advance team arrived in town, didn't find anything, and then they all fell to the ground, including MF1. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Gas? ”

"They are all wearing helmets, and the power armor is also fully enclosed, ordinary poisonous gas is impenetrable, you should know this very well old man, and there is that MF1!" Borg grabbed his hair, "What poison gas can penetrate a chariot and work so quickly?" ”

"Then I don't know, it can't be a curse, right?"

"Who knows, maybe this was the territory of the Indians hundreds of years ago." Borg waved his hand, "Anyway, we're acting as rear support now, so let's keep it open to the front first." ”

There were still more than twenty people left on the hill, most of them from the 475 Mecha Regiment, but there were also two or three people with different armbands, who had followed from Base 47, including Christine. Now the Latin girl was holding a suspected laptop device, and Bogra walked over with Zhao Yu and Hunter: "Private private, how is the situation now?" ”

"Everything is normal, Lieutenant, they're going into town." Christine turned the screen to them, and it turned out to be a monitor, with a dozen split screens showing different images, apparently cameras from Lieutenant Lee's unit.

Christine pressed a few buttons and motioned for Zhao Yu to put on their helmets, and a noisy voice came: "This is the southern entrance to Woodyk Town...... I saw the electronic signboard at the entrance of the town, and it was last updated 5 days ago. ”

"There are no signs of life within three hundred meters, continue scanning."

"The building is mostly intact, most of the doors are closed, and it looks more like a relocation than a disaster."

"It's so weird, there's no sign of life...... Not to mention people, rats, birds and other small signals are not ...... Damn, it's like a ghost town. ”

"Turn right ahead, we will meet the advance team at the next street entrance, and everyone will enter the first level of combat readiness."

A heart-pounding silence ensued, and the soldiers faced no obstacles, moving forward until something appeared on camera.

"Discover the advance team! All of them are in a state of inability to fight! Confirm vital signs now! Several infantrymen hurriedly ran over, but at this moment, a sudden scream rang out from the earphones.

"What's the situation? What happened?! ”

"There is a downsizing in Class B! Someone fell to the ground! The reason is unknown! ”

"Something! There's something around! ”

"Fire! Fire...... Ahem! What's going on, it's ......"

"Didn't find it...... Nothing was found! We did not find the enemy...... We're not sure if we've been attacked! But ......"

"Hell...... Ahem......"

"Sergeant Borg, something is wrong here, don't come here...... Ahem......"

Exclamations, gasps, and staccato gunfire rang out almost instantaneously, and the camera feed all became violently shaky and then returned to stillβ€”with only a few mech infantry falling in front of the camera.

The chaos lasted for a short time, maybe thirty seconds, maybe a minute, and then everything fell silent.

The men of the 472 regiment lost contact.

Zhao Yu, Christine, and Hunter looked at each other, and then looked at Borg together.

"Sergeant, what should I do?" Hunter spoke first, "Lieutenant Lee seems to have told you not to go?" ”

Borg nodded: "I hear you." ”

"And what are your plans?"

"Of course I want to go." Borg put on his helmet, "I'm not going to leave my brothers there." ”

Zhao Yu said twice: "We are becoming more and more like the protagonists in third-rate horror movies who don't know whether to live or die." ”

"If I have time, I'll go and watch the horror movies you said." Borg said, "So old man, do you want to come with us?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Let me think about it. ”

Ten minutes later, twenty-three vigilant mech infantrymen, one MF1, and three vehicleless chariot pilots, Borg, Hunter, and Zhao Yu, appeared at the entrance to Woodyktown.

"It's all a gamble, cheer up, brothers." Borg shouted loudly in the communication channel, and then chatted with Zhao Yu privately, "Old man, how do you feel?" ”

"There is good news and bad news." Zhao Yu replied.

"Let's talk about the bad ones first."

"Actually, it's the same." Zhao Yu sighed, "I always thought that I had a premonition that the 'ominous' ability was gone, and I didn't know until I came to this place...... Not really. ”

Borg was silent for a few seconds and asked, "How bad does it feel?" ”

"It's terrible, it's like swimming naked to the opposite side knowing that there is a fecal swamp in front of you."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Please, next time you change the analogy to a less disgusting one. ”

As you can see on the screen before, this town is more desolate and desolate, there are some withered yellow leaves and some ordinary daily necessities scattered on the ground, most of the buildings are closed, and you can see through the windows that the furnishings in the shops are quite orderly, and it doesn't look like you've experienced any chaos.

The electronic billboards on the side of the street are still playing advertisements on a loop, and occasionally a gust of wind blows, and various ornaments hanging on the roadside are still fluttering.

"It feels like the people of this town have decided to go out on a trip en masse." A mech infantry grunted.

"It's probably a trip from which to go." Borg reminded.

Christine's voice interjected: "There are still seven hundred meters away from the place where Lieutenant Li and they had an accident. ”

"Very well, guys hear it, cheer up, we don't know what happened yet - Christine, you stay here, I need rear support."

"Yes, sir." Christine replied without hesitation, and stopped near the entrance of the town alone, opened the laptop and continued to operate, Zhao Yu also admired the courage of the Latin girl, and replaced him with his own stay here, saying that he was not worried at all It must be fake.

"Three hundred meters away from the target location, turn left at the intersection ahead." Christine had already used the previous information to establish a map of the town, and had been guiding everyone forward, and as they approached the place of the accident, the air in the team began to become tense, Borg and Hunter both raised their rifles and were ready to fire at any time, while Zhao Yu's left hand had not yet recovered, and he could only symbolically clench the pistol on his waist.

"Discover the target, repeat, discover the target!"

"According to the previous plan, the first team will come forward to check, and the others will adjust the alert level to the highest!"

The four mecha infantry formed a covering formation and moved forward, and soon ran to the side of the group of fallen comrades, and a soldier took out a life detector and began to scan: "There are still signs of life!" But there is organ failure, the cause is unknown! Further inspection is needed! ”

"The advance team also has signs of life, but the situation is serious and we may need ...... Ahem......"

Suddenly there was a coughing sound, and Zhao Yu was startled, but he looked around and didn't find anything unusual except for the four soldiers who were coughing violently and slowly falling to the ground.

"Hell, what the hell is it?" As soon as Borg finished speaking, suddenly he also shook a little, "Damn......"

Not only was the first team approaching Lieutenant Li and them, but the people around Zhao Yu were also unsteady on their feet, coughing and wheezing in the communication channel were endless, and the soldiers fell down one after another, but Zhao Yu himself had nothing at all except that he felt a little difficult to breathe and couldn't be sure if it was his own psychological effect.

"This ...... What exactly is it? ”

"Sergeant! In the direction of nine o'clock, at a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, an active unit appeared! Christine shouted anxiously, but Borg was already on the ground, unable to answer her.

"Nine o'clock ......" Zhao Yu turned and hid behind the MF1 - the chariot was also paralyzed, and it seemed that Sergeant Hartmann's crew had also been hit - and looked in the direction indicated by Christine.

Two figures did appear on the roof in the distance, it should be the rooftop of a shopping mall, Zhao Yu was trying to adjust the focus of the mask to see more clearly, a person suddenly stood up next to him, and shot several points in a row towards that side, and the two figures shook and fell to the ground.

"What do you do?" Zhao Yu looked to the side in surprise and found that it was a person with a completely different power armor coating, "Gabriel?!" ”

Gabriel has been following the team, and Zhao Yu completely forgot about him...... Zhao Yu can't be completely blamed, although this warrior who joined halfway has strong combat effectiveness, his sense of presence is too weak, and he never takes the initiative to speak, and is often ignored.

And now, he's shot again.

Noticing Zhao Yu's reaction, Gabriel explained, "They are snipers, aiming at us. ”

"Is it really an ambush?" Zhao Yu looked at his comrades-in-arms who were lying all over the ground, "But what happened to them?" Surely it wasn't shot with a sniper rifle, right? Why are you okay again? ”

"You're okay too." Gabriel pointed to the side of the chariot, "They seem to be too." ”

Only then did Zhao Yu notice that there were two mecha infantry next to the chariot that had not fallen, and were vigilantly pointing their guns around, and one of them nodded towards Zhao Yu.

"Sergeant Borg? …… Sergeant Hartman? Corporal Batalha? Christine's excited voice came, "Is there anyone?" Is there anyone else? ”

"I'm still here, Christine." Zhao Yu felt that the Latin girl was going to collapse if she continued like this, so she quickly connected to the channel, "There are still four people here who survived, but I don't know what happened." ”

"Thank God...... Wait, I'll be right over! ”

"Wait a minute, it's dangerous here!"

"Is there any place in this town that isn't dangerous now?"

At this moment, Gabriel suddenly pushed Zhao Yu to the ground, and a string of bullets hit Zhao Yu just now half a second later.

"Enemy attack?! Well, at least a bastard who can be seen! "The two mecha infantry on the other side ran over and formed a battle group with Gabriel, at this time, gunfire was heard from all directions, and at least twenty enemy soldiers appeared at various intersections to attack the four people who were fighting on the MF1 shell on this side, and from the perspective of firepower, Zhao Yu's side was obviously at a disadvantage.

"Gotta figure it out!" One of the mechs shouted, "We're going to be trapped here!" Who the hell are they?! ”

"Judging by the livery, it's the people of the Seventh War Zone." Gabriel said.

"There are still troops in the Seventh War Zone here?!"

A new gunshot rang out on the street on one side, and two enemies were temporarily beaten out of combat effectiveness, and then they saw Christine rushing over with a rifle firing wildly, and the enemy was a little at a loss for a while, but they quickly adjusted their firepower and focused on shooting Christine, and the defensive cover on Christine's body was beaten straight to shine, just when Zhao Yu was worried that the Latin girl would not be able to hold on, Christine rolled forward and jumped into the range of MF1, The bullet from the opposite side almost bit her heel and hit the MF1 shell.

Zhao Yu was stunned, he never thought that this girl, who was supposed to be a technical nerd, would be so fierce in battle.
