020 Operation, Fjord, Sortie

The warehouse was located at the rear of the combat headquarters, and when he walked out of the room, he was greeted by sandy trenches and ravines, and soldiers in pale yellow uniforms saluted him, their faces were yellow, their nerves were tense, and their hands holding essentia guns were trembling slightly.

Fighting on the front line of the periphery for a long time is very draining, and the soldiers take turns to rest and change shifts one-on-one to ensure that the defensive line is guarded at all times.

"Commander, Adjutant Wei. The soldiers guarding the warehouse gate clutched their essentia guns and shouted.

Li Xiang nodded and asked the girl adjutant to open the closed warehouse door.

There was a vague smell of medicinal herbs in the warehouse, which was full of all kinds of weapons and equipment, and dozens of soldiers in the hall were lying on their backs or sitting, one by one seriously injured, and they all struggled to stand up and salute after seeing Li Xiang coming, but he waved his hand and refused.

"How's the injury?" he casually asked the warrior, who bowed his head and said nothing.

Here are the seriously wounded fighters in the combat headquarters, who hesitate and are short of resources, and they have to use the warehouse as a recuperation place to recuperate.

"Report to the commander, Unit E-1004 has a total of one hundred and seventy-six men, forty-two lightly wounded, twenty-seven seriously wounded, and one hundred and seven usable combat forces. Adjutant Wei stood up straight, with a solemn expression, no longer as hippie and smiling as he did in the combat command room.

"Immediately reorganize an elite team of thirty-seven people, and go with me to the nearby combat headquarters to help. Li Xiang looked at the other soldiers in the warehouse and said softly, "You take care of yourself, in a few days, there may be a big war coming." ”

Hearing that a big battle might be coming, the eyes of the seriously wounded soldiers lit up one after another, without the slightest fear.

After leaving the warehouse, Li Xiang was in an even worse mood.

I have to say that the Goddess of Calamity's scene coverage ability can be called terrifying, and the scenario mode she designed is deeply embedded in Li Xiang's mind, if it weren't for his strong concentration and gradually recalled the content of the trial, I'm afraid that he would still be trapped in the sitcom at this moment and couldn't extricate himself.

The original intention of the Goddess of Calamity was to make them feel the urgency and great pressure of fighting the Calamity, and forgetting their original memories would help them to devote themselves to the situational mode.

Even if he recalls a lot, Li Xiang is still rendered by sitcoms every moment, and once his mind jumps out, there will be a strong hint that he is a branch commander and a soldier who resists disasters.

"Let's go with the flow. Li Xiang saw the current situation in the sand table of the operations command room, many of the same branches were asking for help everywhere, and if he didn't pay attention to it, soon a large wave of xenomorphs would engulf the area, and at that time, his trial would be over.

I just don't know if other people will simulate a similar identity, or will it be given randomly?

He touched his chest, the position of the elf dragon was empty, and it seemed that the projection of the goddess of calamity could not transfer other living creatures.

The sound of neat and powerful footsteps behind him sounded, and the girl adjutant Wei Sangsang ran towards him with a bunch of elite soldiers.

Under the observation of the pupil of Jianzhen, their strength was clear in Li Xiang's eyes.

I thought that these simulated characters were made up by the goddess of calamity in order to fit the situation, but judging from the feedback of the pupil of authenticity, these are clearly essentia projections of real people!

Could it be that the military department still sent people to cooperate with this trial?

But it didn't feel right.

Li Xiang has never been in the military department, but he has learned a lot from Chen Fan, the style of this uniform is wrong, and the combat power of these soldiers is also significantly higher by a grade, and from the information feedback, Wei Sangsang, whose strength has reached the standard of a magician, can't even do magic!

"We're going to the Shadowstream Fjord, where there are four operational headquarters, and if breached, the area will be left defenseless. Li Xiang made a decision immediately, the character information assigned to him by the goddess of calamity had detailed situational information, and he was like a real commander and knew the battle situation well.

As for the strategic analysis and the layout of the battle situation, that was his own deduction.

This may be part of the trial.

Judging from the last Ultimate Qualifying, the Goddess of Calamity is particularly keen on simulating the battle between humans and Calamity, and it looks like a grind for them.

"Yes, all of them, travel light. Wei Sangsang roared, and a loud and bright voice erupted from his petite body, making Li Xiang couldn't help but take a second look.

The team headed west, soon reaching the mouth of the Shadowstream Fjord.

On the way, they encountered several xenomorph attacks, Li Xiang's terrifying combat power surprised Wei Sangsang and others, generally this kind of small-scale encounter, there will always be many fighters left forever, but Li Xiang was alone, and killed all the xenos when they only swept the formation.

[Xenomorph Card Fragments: Silent Hand], [Xenomorph Card Fragments: Bloodthirsty Spider Plant]......

Watching the fragments of virtual cards enter his body, Li Xiang felt more and more troubled, these xenos come from those weird calamity items, a calamity item may spawn hundreds of different xenomorphs, killing them will randomly drop fragments, only by collecting these fragments can you get the full card.

And out of the pile of shards he got so far, at least he needs to collect a hundred shards to synthesize!

This means that the number of xenos to be killed in this trial is staggering!

In the past, the number of xenos encountered rarely exceeded hundreds, and most of the so-called combat experience of these students with xenos was only a few dozen battles, and this was far less than the scale of the bloody battle between humans and xenos.

If Li Xiang hadn't been at the border, this kind of battle alone would have been enough to make him mentally problematic.

Everything in the Calamity camp has a strong spiritual pollution, and confronting them for a long time will make people's spirits weaker and weaker, and once they break through the threshold, they will fall into an irreversible state of madness.

The defense of the Shadowfjord is still under intense construction, and several artillery pieces have been erected at the commanding heights, but this firepower is far from enough, and in order to control a large number of xenomorph waves on the periphery of the fjord, countless soldiers must rush to the battlefield one after another.

Rao is like this, and there are still many xenomorphs that have slipped in from various gaps and plagued other regions.

Humans have always prided themselves on numbers, but in the face of xenos with more terrifying reproductive abilities, the numerical advantage no longer exists.

Several engineers commanded the workers to work at high speed, and there were human soldiers on the side to assist, seeing the bloody squad, a soldier hurriedly ran over, saluted and asked: "Hello sir, which unit are you from?"

"We are from Unit E-1004, this is our commander Li Xiang, and I am Adjutant Wei Sangsang, who just received a call for help from the Shadowstream Fjord, and specially rushed to help. Wei Sangsang replied competently.

"Okay, please, our commander is deploying the battle situation. A flash of surprise flashed in the soldier's eyes, dragging his exhausted body and leading them towards the headquarters.

Li Xiang noticed that almost all the soldiers here were overdrawn, their eyes were blood-red, and they were sustained by military stimulants.

There is a serious shortage of manpower.

The humble combat headquarters was filled with the smell of tobacco, and Wei Sangsang covered his mouth and nose in displeasure and stood to the side.

"Chen Fan!" Li Xiang greeted the man who looked down at the sand table and frowned, "It's actually you." ”

"Li Xiang......" Chen Fan raised his head happily, walked over and hammered his chest hard, "Damn, the two of us are really lucky." ”

"Two commanders, we can talk about the old things later, let's discuss the deployment of the battle situation first......" Wei Sangsang waved his little hand to disperse the smell of smoke.

"My adjutant. Li Xiang smiled speechlessly.

Chen Fan laughed and pulled him closer to the sand table: "Let's not talk about anything else, you look at the situation here." Since a few days ago, it seems to have been covered by a large wave of xenomorphs, invading the borders like crazy, and at the moment you came, more than a dozen more headquarters have been destroyed. ”

"Are you in charge of the construction of the fortifications?" Li Xiang glanced at the sand table, and had to admire Chen Fan's super high military quality, ordinary people are afraid that when they encounter this situation, they will lead the team to evacuate without saying a word, so that the loss is minimal, but it also means that the overall situation of the rear front is collapsed.

Shadowfjord is suitable for defense, and if it can be set up quickly, it can hold off a few attacks, so that you can catch your breath and call for help.

"Well, have you forgotten what I studied?" Chen Fan nodded, he was a top student at the First Military University, not only his combat power was outstanding, but his military literacy was also extremely high.

"I don't know much about this, what can I help you?" Li Xiang conjured up the card fragments, Chen Fan comprehended, and also conjured up some of the things he held, which seemed to be invisible to others.

"Follow me. Chen Fan led him towards the commanding heights of the fjord defense project, and Wei Sangsang also followed curiously.

From above, an entire battlefield was clearly visible to them.

Bloody, brutal, fighting.

Smoke fills the air.

All kinds of xenomorphs and human warriors are fighting to the death, and the humans are constantly retreating, fighting in waves in turn, but the waves of xenomorphs are pouring in endlessly, and the black pressure is overwhelming, until the end of the sight.

"Hiss......" Wei Sangsang felt a tumult in her stomach, and it was the first time she had seen such a magnificent scene.

Extremely unwell.

This is the real battlefield.

Either you die or I die.

But the opponent is a monster that is tireless and painful, and is not afraid of death.

This makes humanity desperate.

"In a few days, countless soldiers died for this project, and we must not retreat. Chen Fan's expression was solemn, and he said word by word in a cold voice, "Otherwise, their deaths will be in vain." ”

Even if it's just a game.

His lips squirmed, expressing his persistence and belief.

If you retreat here, who can guarantee that you will not escape like this in the same environment in the future?

"Hmm. Li Xiang patted him on the shoulder in agreement.

"You see, these xenos are a little different from what we've seen before, they seem to hide their leaders, manipulating their movements and attacks. Chen Fan ordered a few places, "I call them strange ghosts." These aliens have a certain level of sanity, their combat power is at the critical level of aliens, and they can manipulate the actions of other aliens, and they are our real enemies. ”

Li wanted to look, and sure enough, he found some xenomorphs with rudimentary sanity.

They are like the oni they met before, breeding xenomorphs in a hotbed and then manipulating them.

It's just that Ghost Wuqi's sanity is higher, and he has reached the peak state of critical xenomorphs.

Those alien spirits manipulated the xenomorph wave to attack the weakest points of the human camp, and several times, if it wasn't for the extremely strong warriors who stood up, the stronghold would have been breached.

"There's a very strong wraith, very strong, the leader of this small area, and I want you to stab it like a sharp knife and kill it, so that we can relieve our stress. Chen Fan sighed, "I only have the strength of a level 1 magician, so I can't do it." ”

"Such a dangerous operation, let our commander go alone?!" Wei Sangsang on the side was very angry, "What about the others?"

"As you can see, there are very few troops who can come to the aid of Shadowstream Fjord, and everyone is too busy to do anything. Chen Fan smiled, he didn't expect this NPC to fit the character design, and he actually scolded his boss for Li Xiang, "Your commander is the strongest in the entire Shadow Flow Channel." ”

"He can't do it, who else can?"

Hearing Chen Fan praise Li Xiang as the strongest, Wei Sangsang's face improved a little, she looked at Li Xiang, as if begging him not to agree.

Killing a strange ghost among so many alien species is as difficult as ascending to the sky, and there is no return.

"Okay, I'll go. "Li wants to come here to fight, how could he give up this opportunity.

Hearing his agreement, Wei Sangsang was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"No, you can't go!"

Li Xiang ignored her directly, walked straight back to the headquarters, and prepared for battle.

Wei Sangsang followed him scolding all the way, desperately trying to dissuade him from going.

"Alright, Sangsang, thank you for your kindness, but that's what I'm here for. Li Xiang grabbed her shoulders and persuaded her earnestly, "Moreover, I always feel that this thing seems to be waiting for me to do." ”

It's not nonsense, he vaguely feels similar.

It's amazing.

Just like the human fire that protected the train with Ji Wanqing at the beginning, there was a feeling of déjà vu that made him feel familiar.

It's as if all of this is happening.

Hearing this, Wei Sangsang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's fine, but Commander, you have to take us with you!" Wei Sangsang made a final concession.

"Okay, the strength of the warriors in the past must be at least about the same as yours, and no matter how weak it is, it will be a burden. Li Xiang nodded.

"Yes!" Wei Sangsang wiped his tears and immediately followed him to change his equipment.

The final decision on the death squad was a total of seven people, in addition to Li Xiang and Wei Sangsang, there were also five of the most elite fighters.

Knowing that they were going to stab their enemies in the abdomen like sharp knives in the vastness of the battlefield to slay a powerful wraith, the other human warriors looked at them with encouragement and admiration.

Li Xiang restrained his breath, with a stinger in one hand and a blood clan daimyo in the other, he walked through the gate, always maintaining his best condition, with this wave of human warriors coming into direct contact with xenomorphs.

There were also hundreds of warriors beside them to protect their group of seven, trying to open up a passage for them and reduce physical wear.
