The sun rises as usual.

The blazing sunlight struggled to penetrate the thick radiation clouds and sprinkle them on the ground. All sorts of strange animals on the ground scattered in search of shelter from the radiant sun.

The weather is still dry, and the winter of the old times seems to be long gone, leaving only this shattered world in the death throes, and the humble human race.

The moment the sun went down, the squad commander, Lintas, lowered the telescope in his hand.

In the next second, the howl of wolves echoed in the mountains a kilometer away in front of them, in this era, the only wolf that can survive is the rotten wolf, and the howl can be so high-pitched when it reaches so far away, Lintas's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly, and his face changed slightly, he immediately picked up the telescope again and looked in the direction of the wolf's howl, and his face was finally moved.

"Damn, it seems that those rotten wolves are a lot stronger again, and this time the mission may be even more difficult." As far as he could see, he could see several adult rotting wolves walking around in the distance, their eyes full of ferocity, and from their howls, Lintas could hear their thirst for food.

In this era, especially between the aliens, it is not easy to find food, most of them are only active in a small area to catch lone prey, most of them live in groups, in a group of living corpses, even the most powerful rotting wolves dare not approach, the group strength is always the strongest, and the same is true of other aliens, so food is the most precious thing for aliens, for food, they can fight hard, and tear you apart to be their food.

The number of people in the squad is only nine, except for the captain Lintas and a sniper who have reached the strength of the first order, the other eight people are just ordinary warriors, such strength may still have the strength to fight when encountering a small group of alien bodies, but breaking through in this kind of wild place is undoubtedly the most dangerous thing.

The sniper in the squad was named Gesang, a big man, and he said in a rough voice: "Captain, how long will we have to walk in this damn place to complete the mission?" You all know, we have lost five brothers and failed to find a first-order rotten wolf king, where can a ghost thing of that strength be born so easily? I suggest we have to rest. ”

The captain was silent for a moment and said: "Gesang, I understand your feelings, but you should understand the importance of our mission this time, it is just a very common thing to lose a few brothers in this damn wilderness, okay, I promise you, this last round, if we haven't found it, we will go back to the base to rest." ”

Lintas knew that such a task was demanding and had an element of luck, and generally speaking, this kind of task required Lintas and his teammates to walk in the wilderness for more than half a month, but it was not very difficult. In this desolate area with a radius of more than 100 kilometers, Lintas already knew everything about what kind of creatures were suitable for living in the palm of his hand, and he could count them with his eyes closed. With the firepower of his nine-person team, even if he encountered a large wolf pack with hundreds of rotten wolves, he could completely cope with it.

However, their task was to find a rotten wolf king with first-order strength, not an ordinary rotten wolf king, and this kind of task was not easy for them to complete. After all, a first-order strength rotten wolf king already possessed a certain amount of wisdom, and evolution would make them as cunning as humans, so how could they easily find them?

Gesang was silent for a moment, then half-knelt on the ground, the sniper rifle in his hand was aimed at a few rotten wolves who were still howling thousands of kilometers away, and a faint red crosshair symbol flashed in his eyes, but it was the infrared crosshair of the sniper's first-order skill that was activated, and he pulled the trigger without hesitation in the next second.

"To hell with it!"

"Bang!"

The sound of gunfire resounded throughout the valley, and a bullet with a hole wave spiral pattern broke out of the muzzle, and hit the body of a rotting wolf without accident, and the huge kinetic energy of the bullet sent it all into the air, and then the second bullet followed, and the third bullet followed, and in a short time, all three bullets had been shot into the body of the rotten wolf, knocking it over several times before falling to the ground.

It's just that this result didn't kill it, it only caused it to suffer extremely serious injuries, but the rotting wolf also lost its ability to move, curled up on the ground and twitched its body again and again, as if it was dying.

The remaining rotting wolves whimpered, ignoring their companions, and fled deeper into the valley with their tails between their legs.

Successfully took down the rotten wolf, but this result could not make Gesang's mood any better, he said to Lintas with a worried look on his face: "Captain, you have seen, those ghost things are growing too fast now, it turns out that only one bullet can solve them, and now three bullets can't kill them directly, this is not good news, I have a gut feeling, we may really encounter great danger when we go in this time." ”

Lintas watched the rotting wolves flee in silence, put down the binoculars when he heard this, patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said, "Man, don't have such a heavy heart, after these few days, everything will be fine." ”

A few kilometres of mountain trail is an hour for Lintas and his companions, who have a wealth of experience in wilderness survival. After Lintas and the others entered the valley, they could see from their sight that there were several rotting wolves in the valley that suddenly bowed down, obviously seeing Lintas and them, the rotting wolves bared their drooling fangs, and kept letting out a low roar from their throats, as if warning Lintas to them.

Lintas knew that this was a very typical behavior of the Xenomorph Protector Territory, indicating that there was a nest behind them, and perhaps there were quite a few wolf cubs inside.

He had seen too many things like this in the past few days, and he couldn't make any surprise appear on his face, he just tilted his head slightly, and then said, "Gesang, it's up to you again." ”

Gesang sighed, the sniper rifle in his hand jerked up, and then fired several shots in succession.

"Bang bang bang ......bang" The gunshots were continuous, and several rotting wolves in the valley did not have time to dodge the action, their heads or backs splashed a canopy of blood, and without accident they lost their mobility in the next moment, whimpering and curling up on the ground and shaking their bodies.

"Good marksmanship!" Lintas patted Gesang on the shoulder in satisfaction, and led the group towards the valley.

It was an ordinary-looking valley, full of rocks and trees, walking on the side of the road, occasionally seeing some snow-white bones, which were the traces of the prey of the rotting wolves, and strangely, when they killed a few rotten wolves, it seemed that the whole valley of rotten wolves had disappeared, replaced by an unusual silence.

The more this happened, the more heavy Lintas's heart became, and Gesang said with some uneasiness: "Hell, I hope there will be no hydrops here, otherwise, all of us will have to confess here." ”

Lintas said in a deep voice: "Don't think about these things, our luck won't be so bad, I hope that this time we can find the first-order rotten wolf king and find the genetic blood, so that our mission will be successfully completed, complete the task early, go back early to get the reward, and then go to find a beautiful woman." That's what we should be treated for. ”

Speaking of rewards, everyone's eyes began to light up, and their pace was much lighter.

The trail of the rotting wolf seemed to have really disappeared, and the people seemed more cautious, looking for traces of the rotting wolf in various caves, but they could only find some bones left by gnawing, and they found nothing for an hour.

"Captain, what's going on, I feel a little unusual, this valley is huge, we haven't encountered a single rotting wolf in this hour, it's an incredible thing, did they all know we're here and hid?" It doesn't make sense, those things will know to be afraid? In the middle of a cave, Gesang put down his sniper rifle and walked up to Lintas with a worried voice.

"There's something wrong with that," said Lintas in a deep voice, "in the end, we've gone deep into their lair, they should be crazy and attacking us, and I can't figure out what is going on with such a thing, so let's keep going five hundred meters, and if we can't find any trace of them, let's retreat!" ”

Hearing this, everyone was silent, and there was a faint sadness in their hearts. In this half a month, they paid the lives of five partners, but in the end they still couldn't complete the task, and this result was a little unacceptable for them.

"Captain, there's a situation!" Suddenly, a mob soldier screamed, and his voice trembled with a hint of fear, resounding through the cave, startling everyone.

Lintas's face changed, and he rushed directly to the entrance of the cave, pulled the mob soldier away, and looked out of the cave.

Lintas's eyes widened suddenly, and in those dark brown pupils, they were filled with dense rotting wolves!

Countless rotten wolves are all over the valley, and the number has exceeded three hundred, and they are five hundred meters outside the cave, enclosing all that place, not only that, but in addition to these rotten wolves, in the depths of the valley, there are countless rotten wolves rushing out of it, and the number is still growing at an alarming rate.

They were far away, among so many rotting wolves, they didn't see a single rotten wolf howling, they all stared at this side with wide scarlet eyes, baring their sharp teeth, saliva kept dripping, although they looked fierce, but there was still no rotten wolf rushing towards this side.

It looks like a trained human army.

Gesang ran over to take a look, his pupils also contracted rapidly, his face immediately turned pale, and said, "Captain, it looks like we are trapped, what should we do?" With so many rotting wolves, how could we possibly outdo them? ”

Lintas grimaced, then said to a mob soldier, "Can you contact the base?" Report our situation to HQ that we have encountered at least 2,000 rotting wolves, and request support from the base! ”

The mob soldier immediately obeyed the order and began to contact the base, and in less than a minute, the soldier immediately looked up and said, "Captain, we have been contacted, and the base said that we should hold out until dawn and sunrise tomorrow, and the support will not arrive at that time." ”

Lintas's face turned even paler when he heard this, and he looked out again, and the more he looked at it, the more chill in his heart grew. At this time, the number of rotten wolves outside has exceeded 1,000, but it is still increasing.

Damn it! He scolded fiercely in his heart.

It will be a challenge to hold on until the first light comes before dawn!

For the first time, he felt powerless!
