Chapter 49: The Retreat of Aldebaran
When he finally figured out what was going on, Rentaro quickly pulled out the flashlight from his waist and ran towards the big hole.
In order not to inhale the choking smell of earth and dust, he smashed his mouth.
The moment the bottom of the cave was illuminated, Rentaro met the strange creatures that emerged from the dense dust.
No, if you guessed correctly, the guy's eyes were degraded to the point where they couldn't be confirmed with the naked eye.
Body hair like wet velvet. The hypertrophied five giant claws are supposed to be used to dig through the ground, and the tentacles and bright red flowers that emerge from the body hair emit a foul smell similar to that of Rafflesia.
If it weren't for the radial spread of the tip of the nose, like a tentacle protruding over the guy's face, I'm afraid no one would have thought it was a star-nosed mole protosagular.
The completely unpredictable attack directly below sent Rentaro chills.
Phase II. has finally appeared! There are about five of them as far as the eye can see. They are protozoans that can cause the ground to fall and attack humans.
The moles knew where they were exposed, and in the blink of an eye they burrowed into their holes.
At this moment, a black ball of light with an ominous aura devoured the surrounding light as it quickly flew into the cave.
Only a loud bang was heard, and the underground protozoa turned into ashes before they could even scream.
Rentaro looked in the direction of the black orb flying over, and saw the young man with long black hair who looked about his age nodding to him.
"What should I do with Lord Yang Xi?"
Now it has evolved into a chaotic melee, and at this point, it is impossible for the regimental commander's instructions to be conveyed. Having said that, he didn't have the strength or command to change the situation of the battle, so Rentaro could only ask for help from Yang Xi, who was mysterious and had extraordinary strength.
"Rentaro, you gather your squad members to form a sharp knife to help the police officers who are in a bitter battle. The current situation is quite unfavorable for us, and we can save one more person. Just one more power. β
"I see."
Taking a deep breath, Rentaro nodded, and immediately began to rush in one direction with his teammates.
I have to say that with the strength of their auxiliary team, it is like a sharp knife, directly tearing apart the attack of the original intestines, and all those who stand in front of them are instantly killed.
Their actions to rescue their companions can only be described as swift and thunderous. Rescue the starter who has been cornered by the aragonus and cowering back, rescue the partner who has lost a teammate and is surrounded, or pick up the wounded with both hands and take them away.
The rescued people were a little dazed, and some were grateful to the exaggerated Cheng dΓΉ. There are also some who stare at Rentaro and clasp his hand desperately, and some who return to the battlefield again without saying a word, and there are everyone.
However, of course, on the battlefield of life and death, not everywhere is a dazzling picture that can become a beautiful talk.
Some of the initiators, who were unlucky enough to be saved, were teary eyes grinding and chewing on the monster's many rows of sharp teeth.
In particular, when the initiator loses his commander and spiritual support, the facilitator, he almost always falls into insanity. This happens everywhere.
Somewhere, a teenage girl slumped next to the body of the facilitator. Rentaro and the others tried to take her hand to safety temporarily, but they were met with fierce resistance.
"Don't. Get out of this person's side. I'm going to be killed. β
From this sentence, we can understand how the facilitator treated her during her lifetime. No matter how much she told her that the facilitator was dead, she didn't believe it, so Rentaro had to leave for a while to help the others. By the time they passed there again, many protozoa had gathered around them, scrambling to stick out their mouths and grab food with their backs to them. Although they also noticed Rentaro and his party. But there was no intention of attacking. Those guys must love their food.
In another place, a facilitator is in the process of gastrulation. Rentaro died in order to keep him at least human, so he aimed his pistol at him. The initiator who tied his dyed hair into a ball head stopped Rentaro and cried and pleaded for mercy.
"Ah Shun is still saved. So-please don't kill him! β
But in the next second, the alien aragut bit off the girl's head from behind. The girl's body seemed to spin around a few times before falling.
The smoke hurts my eyes. Breathing also becomes rapid. His face must have been covered in soot and mud and blackened.
The temperature is close to 50 degrees. An amazing heat wave on the battlefield forced Rentaro to pull off his tie.
As he was looking around where he was going to help next, Tongue of Fire approached the abandoned hut beside him.
The burning police tents echo each other, when the fire merges. A fierce vortex of flames swept across the battlefield, and the temperature reached an astonishing number of more than 1,200 degrees. The swirling red lotus rumbled, sounding like a demon's laughter.
Remember that this building was used to store gasoline -
The moment he saw the tongue of fire reaching the gasoline drum in the house, the blood in Rentaro's whole body froze.
In the next instant, a violent shock wave from the flames of the explosion threw his body into the air.
Rentaro was blown up nearly 20 meters and hit the ground violently. However, the impact force was not completely eliminated, and it rolled on the ground for a few more laps before finally stopping.
Damage to the tricircular canal. In the swirling field of vision, Rentaro barely lifted his aching body by holding his hands on the ground while spitting out the sand in his mouth. The burnt uniforms smell like burning chemical fibers.
The clothes were torn everywhere, and the blood clotted and turned a dark red. He was dazzled by inhaling too much thin air.
A sharp tinnitus echoed deep in his ears, and Rentaro, who had a dysesthesia, pounded his ears and realized that he had lost his hearing.
Maybe the eardrum is damaged.
Rentaro stood up stupidly, looking out at the battlefield where the sound had disappeared.
Black smoke rose and was burned by bright red flames was the front-line base of the people's police. Sparks flutter in the air.
The police opened their mouths wide and didn't know what they were shouting, desperately trying to change the situation of the war, but the situation only deteriorated unilaterally.
There was a starter who grabbed the shoulder of the promoter who had lost his head, and tried his best to find the medic everywhere.
The reptilian archellum threw the body of one of the starters high into the air, caught it with its mouth, and then was torn in half by the two archagula.
Probably separated from the facilitator, a fair-skinned girl in a white one-piece dress sobbed aimlessly with her hands over her face in the scorching heat of the battlefield. Pieces of flesh that she didn't know belonged to were piled up at her feet, up to her ankles.
The internal organs of the deceased flew out, and the ruptured skull and brain pulp were scattered in all directions, stained with dirt.
-- Hell.
There is nothing in front of me that can only be described in this term.
"What is Rentaro doing!"
Suddenly, a white light collided with him and knocked him flying, but surprisingly, this white light did not cause the slightest damage, but also healed the injuries of his body.
"Lord Yang Xi, thank you"
Rentaro, who was recovering his hearing, was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"That's coming, if you don't want to die, get down."
"'That'?"
In the depths of the field of vision, a flash of light flashed from the other end of the fire tent, and an object that seemed to be light swept by, passing over the head of Rentaro, who was lying on the ground, at super high speed.
In the next instant, the objects located on the silver trajectory cracked, and the bodies of more than a dozen policemen made strange noises, which were directly broken into two in the air.
Rentaro felt creepy.
He reflexively stood up and looked behind him, the battlefield as far as he could see was cut by the silver trail, and the screams of madness came and went.
"Spear of Light" - three words came to Rentaro's mind.
"How is that possible?"
Rentaro took a step back in surprise.
The tactics developed against the original intestines in the past ten years are basically based on the premise that the original intestines do not use flying props.
However, this premise has completely collapsed.
I am afraid that this is the real culprit of the Tomahawk cruise missile, helicopter and fighter jet that shot down the Aegis ship a few days ago.
Can't win - so instinct told Rentaro.
All will be killed.
At this time, there was a sudden roar on the battlefield.
The sound even reached the corner of the 40th arrondissement, and the roar of distant thunder contained not demonstrations or shouts, but painful screams.
All the proto-araguts seemed startled, and all of them stopped moving and turned their heads in the direction of the roar. It wasn't long before the voices of the battlefield died down.
Rentaro also looked in the same direction, and noticed the huge silhouette of a small mountain writhing in pain. That guy was obviously dozens of times bigger than the other monsters.
Rentaro's instinct was that it was Aldebaran.
As soon as he thought so, the gastaroids began to move at the same time. The caterpillar-type aragut that crawled on the ground moved, and the insects and birds that flew in the sky also leaned around the giant protogular, using their bodies as shields to gradually retreat.
Because the flying aragut is like a large number of mosquitoes guarding it, Rentaro can't see Aldebaran even if he stares fixedly. It's just that the loud and sorrowful scream heard at that moment, as well as the astonishingly large silhouette of the other party, are enough to freeze Rentaro's back.
All the protozoa finally disappeared from the battlefield, leaving only the living and dead in place.
"Saved?"
The petite starter on the side muttered the words, and the voice echoed in the depths of Rentaro's ears for a long time.
Is it really saved? Although Aldebaran retreated for unknown reasons, the megalithic monument also collapsed a day earlier due to the wind.
That is, there are still three full days left before the new megalithic monument arrives. During these three days, it is difficult to guarantee that the Legion of Prototypes will not make a comeback. With the current state of the civilian police corps, I am afraid that it will not be able to carry even a day.
The Self-Defense Forces are the most worrisome of them.
After the fiasco of the First Battle of Tokyo, the Second Battle of Tokyo was a complete victory, so the guys in the Self-Defense Forces were well prepared after a full decade of research on the battle of the original intestines. It is hard to imagine how they, with their vast experience, managed to collapse in such a short period of time. (To be continued......)
