Chapter Twenty-Four: Latent (I)
Everyone on the front line was in a state of joy, and the tremendous progress made at this stage made them feel that even the complete elimination of this disgusting Zerg from the earth was just around the corner.
However, the marquis and dukes sitting in the rear felt that this matter was more like a paralysis, because the strength displayed by the Zerg now was not even as strong as when the two dukes were tested, and after discussion, they decided to reduce the distance of advancing to one thousand meters per day.
Although many soldiers on the front line did not understand why the advance distance was reduced, this was an order given and had to be carried out.
As usual, the place where Evan and Klev were advancing was not difficult, the pile of Zerg scraps was just a lump of minced meat in the face of artillery fire, and their line was already very far ahead, and when they looked back, they could only see a charred land and a distant border city.
At twelve o'clock at noon, Evan and they started today's advance again, first a round of artillery bombardment, and then a line of insect removal brigades went up, it seemed to be different from usual, this time the Zerg were few and pitiful, only one or two scattered, everyone was immersed in the determination to pacify the Zerg, no one noticed whether there were more or fewer bugs, anyway, they were all killed.?
The scattered three or four green bugs rolled forward, their bodies swollen like balloons, but they were still able to maintain a certain speed in the rapid rolling.
The green reptile led by "Bang" exploded the moment it touched the flames, and a green blood mist quickly formed, dispersing towards the front row of people holding flamethrowers, and the white chemical protective suit melted at a speed visible to the naked eye under the erosion of the fog.
In a few seconds, a hole the size of a bowl was burned in the skin, and what was even more strange was that the hole was formed like a vacuum cleaner to inhale the green gas, or these green gases were constantly burrowing into the wound.
After a while, the surrounding fog dissipated, and the wounded were within a dozen people, and on the surface, the damaged place was burning, and no one was surprised, after all, it was inevitable to be injured in war.
Ai Wen: There was almost no resistance to their advance today, and all the green bugs that appeared were scattered, but as soon as they appeared, there would be injuries, and there were only forty or fifty injured people in a day, which could be said to be inconspicuous in an army of several thousand people.
After a thousand meters of the march, the army was stationed, and it was getting dark.
