24. The battle of Ling Shi
"It's time. Sitting alone in the valley looking at the distant horizon, the sun was still an hour away, and although the celestial movements of the planet were not exactly the same as those of the Earth, Masayan decided to attack at this time, as the book says.
After all, it was only a one-day simulated battle, and Zheng Zha and they would not be able to relax their vigilance, but it didn't matter, whether they chose to take turns keeping vigil or staying up late, they couldn't be in a state of perfection, relatively by the standards of the Space Marines, just monitoring the enemy camp this night was no different from taking a vacation, and if they waited any longer, the night battle would not be established, so there was no need to wait.
In the corner of a kilometer outside the camp of the Zhongzhou team, the three monks slowly stood up, nodded to each other, and began to approach the camp quietly.
Since the area was densely wooded, and the snow on the ground cushioned the thunderous footsteps of the Space Marines, they made it to two hundred meters outside the camp. The three of them leaned over to look at the camp, and there was no cover to cover the magnificent body of the Space Marines at this distance, but because the lighting of the camp was not very complete, the warriors were still hidden in the darkness, but it was enough, and then it was the glorious moment of the charge.
Strafing the camp, the enemy was already sitting motionless and resting all over the camp without alertness, which made Andreas feel very bad, too smooth...
"Hmm!" The first thing that couldn't bear it was Maca, who had already become very frizzy after being counted down by Zhengyan before, and was in a hurry to come to a battle to vent his dissatisfaction, but Ander's delay in giving orders made him very anxious, there was not much hierarchy between the warbands, and Maka, who obeyed the other party just because of the opponent's unparalleled prestige, suddenly couldn't control it and stood up and wanted to attack alone.
But Ender stopped him.
"Wait, something is wrong, don't mess around. The uneasiness in Ender's heart grew more and more solemn, and he held Maca with one hand to prevent him from advancing, while staring at the bits and pieces of the camp, trying to find out what was causing him uneasy.
"Damn, these bastards!" Just as Maca was about to erupt, Ander shouted, he had just observed it in thermal imaging mode, and unlike when he could only see a few points at a distance, he could clearly see the color difference between the parts of the human body at different temperatures, and the Zhongzhou team in front of him... Although their bodies are also divided into different color blocks, these color blocks do not show any fluctuations at all, which is absolutely impossible on normal life forms!
Boom! As he was about to warn his teammates, a rock containing flames exploded in the center of them, and the three of them were instantly blown to the ground by the impact, but that's it, neither the low-density rock nor the unwatery flames attached to it could not hurt the power armor in the slightest, and even made everyone's ears ring. Immediately after the impact, the three of them turned over, and nothing happened except for a layer of dust.
But the bullet also fulfilled its mission, and the fighters who stood up were immediately bathed in a tsunami-like metal storm, and the surroundings of Ender had become a sea of fire, and the Space Marines hiding in it were undoubtedly the best targets under this night sky!
A torrential stream of bullets slammed into the warriors' armor, and the sparks of metal collision were even brighter than the surrounding fireworks, but the embarrassing thing was that the heavy firepower could only wipe off a little paint on the power armor, except for restricting the movement of the Space Marines.
"Are these egg spirits joking!?" Ander recognized the sound of the guns. It was the roar of the six-wheeled Grimm machine gun, which was quite popular on mercenary vehicles, but was completely behind for them. Although this weapon has fierce firepower, its accuracy is extremely low, if you add the outrageous recoil power of the blast bullet, it is not as cost-effective as a cannon hitting flies, and the single soldier Grimm blaster cannot exist as an actual combat weapon at all, and vehicle-scale armaments have long become the world of beam weapons, so they have long disappeared on the battlefield of large forces. This made Ander wonder more and more whether Masayan's words about these mutants being a threat were just a joke, and how could a soldier equipped with such a primitive ability, even if he had some special abilities, be able to deal with the invincible Space Marines?
After adapting to the impact of the rain of bullets, the Space Marines were able to walk inconveniently, and the enraged tactical sergeant didn't even look for cover, as if to mock the opponent's powerlessness, let the opponent's bullets hit him, and slowly aimed at the constantly flickering firelight, ready to educate the opponent on what firepower is.
"Be careful!" Unexpectedly, Maca next to him pushed him away, and when Weipa reacted, a dagger with a strange style had already penetrated the big sword used by the assault sergeant for defense!! the well-made big sword was actually pierced so easily that all the soldiers couldn't help but be stunned, which also gave Zhao Yingkong time to retreat. Half-beat slower, Maca woke up from a dream and swung her damaged sword to fight Zhao Yingkong, but she was obviously quite afraid of her counterattack, allowing the nimble assassin girl to gain the upper hand.
Continuing to fight with the transformation warriors, the assassin did not further force the other party, and Zhao Yingkong knew that the previous attack had used the special physical laws of the infinite world to achieve that effect. The Soul Eater Dagger itself cannot be sharpened like clay, but it is a genuine mysterious weapon, and according to the law that the mysterious class is higher than the technological weapon in this world, the collision between the greatsword and the Soul Eater dagger of pure technology can only end with the former being broken. Of course, with Zhao Yingkong's strength, she couldn't send out that kind of slash that was enough to cut through the metal, so she fused herself with the dagger as a bullet through the acceleration of the Shining, and finally delivered an amazingly destructive blow without letting her dagger be blown away.
In the next sword fight, although Zhao Yingkong tried her best to avoid fighting head-on with the opponent, but after all, there was still a time to fight, but she did not use a stabbing attack once, in order to leave a suspense for the opponent, if the other party found that her weapon was not as dangerous as imagined, then she would not be far from defeat.
Ander and Weipa each raised their guns to cover Maca, but Zhao Yingkong's body was too fast, and he was very skillful in his position, always using Maca's burly body to block their vision, so that the other two couldn't do it at all.
Just as the two hand-to-hand combatants gradually distanced themselves from the remaining Space Marines, the shooting from the side of the storm came again, and this time there were stone bullets comparable to artillery mixed in, and Wipa, who was accidentally shot, was hit in the center at once, and hit the tree fiercely, and lost consciousness for a while.
Ander stood up and held his hands in front of him to resist the incoming stone projectiles, which scattered at the slightest touch, but were no less powerful than the fists of a Space Marine. It takes an average of five seconds to fly out of one is a weakness, but the tsunami of suppressive firepower makes it impossible for him to move, and they are going to be Space Marines stranded with stone bullets and primitive firearms, which must not happen!
"Damn it. Leave that girl alone, go get rid of that damn fire!"
"Leave it to me!!" After listening to the order, Maca swung her big sword left and right sharply and forced Zhao Yingkong back, although the latter pestered him very annoyingly, but after all, there was no way to fight him. In this short gap, Maca turned around and jumped in the direction of the tongue of fire with her impression, Zhao Yingkong could only watch him go away, although her speed was fast, she was really powerless for three-dimensional movement, and now a bear-like figure was breaking through the blockade of fire and rushing towards her.
"It's coming!" Seeing the soaring assault sergeant, Xiao Honglu, who was still casting spells, immediately stopped and withdrew, and Zhang Jie did not try in vain to knock down Maca, but casually abandoned the Grimm machine gun, which was almost larger than himself, and left.
"Humph! a bunch of cowards. Seeing the panicked appearance of the two people on the ground, Maca snorted disdainfully, yes, this is normal, maybe someone can use the secret to take advantage of the sweetness of the space marines, but once they fight head-on, they can only flee or flee. Adjusting her stance, Maca began to land at an accelerated pace, leaving no room under the assault sergeant equipped with a jumping backpack, and of course she had to be as careful as possible not to slice them today.
The moment Maca landed in the mood of a cat and mouse, he immediately found that something was wrong, and the place where he fell was not the ground wrapped in ice and snow, but the ice surface!
The thin surface of the ice certainly couldn't withstand the impact of enough to shatter the rocks, and Maca couldn't even do a single remedy, and plunged deep into the ice-covered trap.
"What!?can't be, how can there be a swamp here!?" Although swamps are not uncommon in the cold zone, this planet is a perennial frozen world, and this kind of terrain should not exist, in fact. This is completely a small pool artificially created by Xiao Honglu with his magic, which is specially designed to deal with the troublesome breakthrough power of the assault sergeant, although it consumes a relatively large amount of time.
"Damn bugs, do you think you can trap me like this?" Maca, who fell into the trap, was naturally ashamed, but he was still very calm, and it was easy to break free from this swamp with the strength of his jumping backpack...
A cold snap hit from behind, and Maca looked back to see that the imp in the cartoon-like robe was spewing a cold dragon at him behind him, and in a short time his backpack was wrapped in a thick layer of white, and the swamp under him also froze into a piece, making him unable to move!
"How can this be reasonable!!" Looking at the prompt on the tactical interface that the connection was interrupted, Maca roared angrily, he was actually trapped in this way, although he was not a late one in the battle group, but it was definitely unprecedented!
"Hmph, interesting, it's obviously a night battle, but in conclusion, we are at a disadvantage?" Looking at the large screen projected in front of him, there were various index abnormalities, consciousness disappeared, equipment offline prompts, and a tactical map that roughly showed the location and direction of the personnel on the scene, and made an evaluation in a serious manner.
Zhengyan, who monitored the footage of his subordinates, roughly figured out the course of the battle with the tactical map, and it was not too surprising that the Space Marines were caught in a hard battle, although he was not satisfied. Zhengyan knew very well that after the initial embarrassment, his subordinates would soon get used to it, but the other party's practice of taking such a big advantage and not expanding the results of the battle made him very concerned, where did that guy Zheng Zhe go?
