Chapter 18: Mutant Man-Eating Ants
"One, you can't be mistaken, this is the destination of our trip? This is no longer a rescue mission, it is completely sent to death! The little fat man cried with a sad face, wanting to cry without tears.
The rest of the team were also pale, their legs trembled, and they had the urge to turn around and run away.
Because, the scene in front of me is too terrifying.
I saw thousands of terrifying mutant ants gathering from all directions like a tide, and all of them launched a ferocious impact on a spherical blue protective light shield in the center of the field.
I saw that under the crazy impact of those terrifying mutant ants, the spherical blue protective light shield rippled, and the color of the energy shield became darker and darker, and it was almost unbearable.
Mutant man-eating ants!
The terrifying mutant monster at the top of the food chain in the Shadow Song Forest, a mutant man-eating ant is not scary, but the mutant man-eating ants have always acted in groups, and they have strong organizational discipline, and when a mutant man-eating ant that is even more terrifying than the army appears, even those high-level mutant demonic beasts will flee in the wilderness.
Ye Tian and the others felt like this at the moment, looking at the terrifying ant colony not far away that had a clear division of labor and was like an army fighting, they had a very creepy feeling, and they couldn't afford any battle at all.
At this time, all the rich task rewards and what direct promotion to the official cosmic mercenary are all left behind, and it is the most important thing to be able to save your own life.
Facing the inquiring eyes of the little fat man and others, Ye Tian smiled slightly bitterly and responded, "Is there a choice?" Don't forget, this is mandatory. ”
From the very beginning, he realized that this special mission was likely to be extremely dangerous, and now it was just a confirmation of his guess, and as for quitting the mission, Scar had already given an extremely clear answer, don't even think about it.
This is the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, one of the super power organizations in the pan-galaxy, with an extremely terrifying and powerful power background, it is by no means something that you can quit if you want to join, not to mention that they are just the lowest-level trainee mercenaries, and they have no right to speak at all.
And just after they arrived at the designated mission location, Ye Tian's Dawn Badge immediately received a message instruction, which was actually issued by Parsons, the head of the Earth Branch of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and the order was very simple and cold-blooded, that is, to divert the attention of the mutant man-eating ant army at all costs, so as to share the pressure on the spherical blue protective light shield in the center of the field.
“mD! This is purely to let us go to death, Lao Tzu will not do it! "Nine, who was previously bent on seizing the captain's position and completing the task, couldn't help but burst into foul language at this moment, and was the first to object, wanting to disobey.
Ye Tian looked at No. 9 coldly, until he closed his mouth and signaled that he would not talk nonsense again, and then he spoke: "It's still the same sentence, this is a mandatory task, and everyone knows very well what this means, so stop thinking about those unrealistic things, let's think about how to complete this mission alive." ”
"Having said that, but No. 1 you also saw it, it's an army of mutant man-eating ants, it's definitely not something that a few of our trainee mercenaries can resist, and it's not even enough to stuff their teeth." The little fat man was really about to cry, and his face was full of despair.
Ye Tian smiled bitterly and patted the little fat man on the shoulder to show comfort, and did not say anything, but calmly observed the surrounding environment and the situation in the field, and thought hard about how to deal with it.
Although this is a desperate mission to death no matter how you look at it, giving up easily has never been his Ye Tian's style.
And just when Ye Tian was thinking hard about countermeasures, several other squads also arrived one after another, compared with Ye Tian's squad, the other squads were very miserable and embarrassed, and there had been a lot of combat attrition, obviously encountering a mutant demonic beast raid on the way here, with heavy casualties.
In particular, the team led by No. 8 rushed at full speed after starting from the training camp, but they did not reach the speed of the process, but they were the last to arrive, and became the commander of the light pole, and the rest of the team members were already dead.
Everyone already knew the specific instructions of this operation mission, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became extremely depressing, if it weren't for the fear of the powerful power background of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and the fear of being severely punished in the future, it is estimated that many people would have fled.
"Did anyone bring incendiary grenades?" Just when the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was almost breathless, Ye Tian suddenly broke the silence and asked.
"Molotov cocktails, I have three here!"
"I have two on me too!"
"I have a miniature rocket here, no worse than an incendiary bomb!"
As Ye Tian's words fell, someone in the crowd suddenly responded positively, and unconsciously, everyone in the training camp had already regarded Ye Tian as the backbone, and they looked like they were obedient.
Seeing this, the second and other squad leaders were a little unwilling in their hearts, but after thinking that Ye Tian's team did not have any casualties, and the team led by them was no longer in formation, they couldn't help but sigh secretly, and they didn't say anything more.
Another point, although they don't want to admit it in their hearts, in the face of such a desperate task, they have no good way at all, but to pin their hopes on One.
"Five incendiary bombs, plus a miniature rocket, although it is difficult to do anything, should be able to barely attract the attention of those mutant man-eating ants." Ye Tian smiled slightly, showing a confident look.
There is no way to do this, and now the morale of the people has fallen to the extreme, if he can't take action, it is estimated that the entire team will collapse completely.
Ye Tian didn't hide it, and told everyone his plan without reservation, in fact, it was very simple, that is, the troops were divided into four ways, and by detonating incendiary bombs and miniature rockets, they would divert the attention of the mutant man-eating ant army, and as for the follow-up plan, it was even simpler, so he could only ask for more blessings and run for his life......
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other, completely unsure of what to say, but after thinking about it carefully, they had to admit that Ye Tian's proposal was very good, simple, direct and effective, and the most important thing was that at least in this way, they could have an explanation for the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, and they didn't have to worry about being held accountable afterwards.
"Fight! Anyway, sticking out your head and stabbing it is death, and shrinking your head is also death, it's better to fight, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope to escape! After some discussion, everyone gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement.
"Then let's do it!" Glancing at the spherical blue shield in the field that was getting darker and darker, Ye Tian simply picked up two incendiary bombs, and then walked towards the east with his team.
The rest of the group quickly regrouped into three squads and took up the other three directions.
"Boom, boom!"
Almost at the same time, Ye Tian and the others shot together, and they saw that one incendiary bomb after another was thrown onto the battlefield and quickly detonated, and the blazing flames rose up and quickly burned all over the battlefield.
As Ye Tian had predicted, it was simply unrealistic to crush the terrifying army of mutant man-eating ants with just five incendiary bombs and one miniature rocket, but this move successfully angered those mutant man-eating ants who were frantically besieging them.
"Hiss !!"
I saw that after a commotion from the terrifying army of man-eating ants in the field, they quickly restored order, and divided into four black torrents, screaming and rushing towards Ye Tian and the others.
"Run!"
I don't know who shouted, everyone unanimously turned around and ran wildly, only hating my parents for missing two legs and not being able to run faster.
"Good luck! Running along the path we carved out earlier should have a better chance of escape. Ye Angel slapped the little fat man's shoulder, and then under his extremely stunned gaze, he did not retreat but advanced, but actually walked against the current alone, and took the initiative to rush towards those incomparably terrifying mutant man-eating ants.
"Just think it's a death trial!" Ye Tian clenched the alloy war knife in his hand and licked his lips lightly.
He knew very well in his heart that this was not the Dead Moon game space, and there was no infinite resurrection mode, but it was precisely because of this that his battle spirit became more and more high, and he entered the best combat state in an instant.
The next moment, the alloy war knife in Ye Tian's hand had already brought up a strong momentum and slashed out.
