Chapter 57: On the Way
For Ling Chen's suggestion, sure enough, everyone didn't try with him, and he was not safe enough in the crowd, so how dare he take the initiative to leave the team. In this regard, Ling Chen doesn't care, this is your choice, then you have to bear the consequences of your choice, don't blame me for not reminding me in the future.
In view of the fact that there were many insects on both sides of the day, it was decided to send more soldiers to both sides the next day, and the order was passed down during the night, and the army was finally mobilized.
The night in the town was not silent, all kinds of moans from pain could be heard far and near, not only that, when Ling Chen walked out of the building, he could also see the dense tents outside, almost every inch of open space was crowded, making it almost impossible for people to settle down.
How many of those who were injured were able to keep up with the team...... Ling Chen shook his head, he had nothing to do about the fate of his previous life that was about to befall these people, he could only say that he was resigned to fate.
With a wave of the long whip, he disappeared in place.
There is a gold card he got in his previous life, he once went to the upper city with a cat alone, and got a gold card near the southern railway, although it doesn't seem as shocking as it was now, but it's still relatively powerful, so he plans to take it, it's a creature summoning card, summoning a huge bronze man, and the power is good. Speaking of gold cards, he only has two cards at present, and he has not used them.
The next day, we set out again, and the speed at the beginning was significantly higher than yesterday, thousands more troops were needed to open the way, and the small vehicles on the road were easily moved away with the collective cooperation, and even the large vehicles were solved much faster than before.
However, although the dark cracks encountered on the road are decreasing, the number of bugs in each crack is increasing, and the resistance of the soldiers is becoming more and more difficult.
Judging from the experience of Ling Chen's previous life, the bugs that appear from each crack seem to be centered on the crack, with their own hunting range, except for the monthly Zerg counterattack, under normal circumstances, they will not exceed this range until a lord-level bug is born in the swarm. As for how it was born, Ling Chen didn't know, when his strength in his previous life was still okay, every crack was guarded by countless insects, making it impossible for him to get close at all.
After a wave of 20,000 insect attacks, all the card holders almost consumed all the means of attack, all the spell cards fell into cooldown, and all the summoned creatures were scattered and decomposed, so that all the insect swarms were barely wiped out, and the citizens only injured one or two thousand people, and the results were brilliant.
However, it didn't take long for the people to rejoice, and another wave of insects swarmed.
"10° north-west on the left, there are about 50,000 swarms coming!" The first person to be discovered was Liu Jing, her ability could already see ten miles away, and when she said this, her mouth trembled a little. Ye Yang watched from the side, holding her hands with encouragement in his eyes.
"This time it's from the side, the army will definitely not have time to move, so let's get the awakened ones up."
It was Guan Ying who asked Ling Chen to fight, this little girl didn't know the danger at all, and she wanted to fight many times, but Ling Chen pushed it off on the grounds that others could solve it and they needed to protect the mayor. However, this time, looking at the attack route of the insects, it seems that it is directly attacking the Chinese army, and most of the troops are ten miles away, so they can't push it even if they want to.
"All those with a grade of B or higher will go with me, and the others will stay where they are to protect the convoy."
is really a low-level awakened person, and if he goes, he will be sent to death in vain.
Ling Chen led less than a hundred people to meet him helplessly, during which he asked in detail who did not have a defense card, and he reissued one if he didn't, and solemnly told everyone that once he felt that he couldn't cope with it, he must hide, and don't be reckless.
It's a pity that the nearby water source is too far away, otherwise it will make the sky ...... Ling Chen shook his head, he can't either, it's daytime, the scope of the fog is limited, the insects fly out of the fog, they can attack other places, this army of more than twenty miles before and after, there are loopholes everywhere, and it is impossible to defend at all.
At the same time that Ling Chen led the team to leave, Mayor Zhou hurriedly contacted Division Commander Li, who ordered the front and rear troops to return to help, and at the same time ordered the artillery to start long-range shelling.
Shells exploded on the ground and in the air, each cannon could take the lives of more than a dozen bugs, and a large amount of green liquid collapsed with each shot, but it was not enough to stop the insects from marching.
The crowd on the left frantically ran away on both sides, but the crowd was so dense that many people were pushed and fell to the ground, and countless feet were stepped on, and they were trampled to death before they could stand up.
"Wall of Fire, Freezing Rain, Trenches, Falling Rocks......" Ling Chen, who rushed to the forefront, activated several spell cards in a row and threw them out, each covering a range of different sizes, although not as direct and powerful as the power of the cannonball, but the victory is long-lasting, and each spell card kills more insects than the number of cannonballs killed.
As the swarm progressed, walls of fire rose and all the insects that tried to break through were burned alive, and the sound they made before they died alerted the swarm behind them to bypass them, but the rain that fell from the sky froze their limbs and were crushed by the swarm that rushed up later......
Several trenches appeared suddenly on the ground, and some of the insects had just ground under their feet, and then the next moment they fell, and before they could get up, countless companions fell from them, and almost instantly, they were completely submerged underneath.
……
Ling Chen threw out a few cards, killing a large number of insects in an instant, like the trench This kind of card that tends to trap has little effect on humans, but it is a god card for insects, especially the running swarm.
The swarm had lost more than 20,000 before it could get close, but they still numbered more than 20,000.
Ling Chen was the first to rush into the insect swarm, although he couldn't kill all the insects, but he had more than enough self-preservation, especially now that the insects were all of the first order, and the highest ones were only reaching the elite, and there was nothing to make him fear. And the blood of killing beckoned him, and he had worked hard and done many things that he was not good at, and it was time to do what he wanted.
Two clouds of black and white light surrounded him, crisscrossing the swarm, rolling up a bug from time to time, smashing it everywhere like a meteor hammer, leaving a large pool of green blood in each blow, as if entering a no-man's land.
The second one who rushed up was Guan Ying, the little girl licked her cherry red lips, and there was a feeling of excitement rising in her body, since she felt that she would be particularly excited when she fought, she had not suppressed this feeling, and now she was able to easily devote herself to the battle, and enjoyed the process. Especially when the big knife swings through the monster in half, the pleasant feeling is indescribable.
The insects were cut in half one by one under her knife, and some even three or four were cut by her at the same time, and a large amount of insect blood burst out from the wound that was divided into two, and the scene was not under Ling Chen, even if she occasionally made a mistake and was bitten by the insects, with her steely skin, she was not afraid, and the attack of the first-order insects could hardly cause any harm to her.
The other Awakened followed, and after a period of continuous training, their abilities improved again, and with the addition of learning the Yuan Qi Gong method, everyone seemed to be reborn, with a nimble mind and quick movements, standing tall under the attack of 20,000 zergs......
After a big battle, when there were only about 10,000 people left in the swarm, they seemed to finally see that the humans in front of them were not easy to mess with, leaving only some of them to continue to entangle, and the rest directly rushed to the humans behind. There's a myriad of ready-to-eat food, so why bother stumbling with a bunch of stones.
The crowd who had stopped and thought they were saved, it was too late to escape, countless insects threw them to the ground, and tore their bodies apart in a few clicks, the click and crisp chewing sound was the sound of human bones breaking, and blood shot out from the mouth of the insects, splashing all the faces of the people who were paralyzed on the ground.
"Kill!"
The Awoken screamed and killed again, and for the first time they felt the thrill of chasing and killing insects, and suddenly they had the feeling that they had grown up and were no longer insect rations......
When the front and rear troops returned to the Chinese army, they saw a group of awakened people chasing insects and slashing and killing, and they had the illusion that they were not dreaming on the spot.
In the end, only more than 300 insects escaped, but more than 30,000 people died, plus several insect attacks encountered today, casualties yesterday, crowds trampling each other, etc., the death toll has reached 60,000 or 70,000, although it seems to be nothing for four million people, but who knows if the next one will be themselves.
