Chapter 466: Fire Ant Plague (5)
"I said Xiao Zhi, other supernatural people can fly to the sky, you look at the young president, Master Lei, they don't look like immortals, how can you fly to the sky?"
A bearded man asked.
"You're stupid, Zhu Shancang, Xiaozhi is now our captain, you should say a report or call the captain directly when you speak, it's just no rules!"
A middle-aged man with a bow and crossbow on his back accuses the bearded.
Li Xiaozhi looked at several team members with a smile: "How can it be so easy to fly, I heard Master Lei and them say that if you want to obtain the ability to fly, you must awaken both your body and ability, and it is difficult for us, the evolutionaries who are only awakened, to obtain that kind of flying ability."
By the way, uncles, I'm young, and this captain hasn't done anything, so when something is wrong, you can remind me more, so that I don't make mistakes! ”
A young man of his age fiddled with the rifle in his hand: "Ash, I'm optimistic about you, but whenever the ability evolves, there is no weak hand, and if you become a company commander or regiment commander in the future, a few of us will follow you!" ”
"Rustle......rustle!"
Suddenly, a rustling sound came into Li Xiaozhi's ears, and he frowned and looked at the top of the slope: "Quiet, listen!" ”
Everyone fell silent, and the strong man known as Zhu Shancannon put his ear to the ground, and then suddenly jumped up.
"There was a slight rustling on the ground."
Li Xiaozhi closed his eyes and sensed the distance, his spiritual power perception was only a few hundred meters away, and he was not as intuitive as his eyes.
The middle-aged man who had previously accused Zhu Shancang climbed the ridge several times and looked at the distance of the slope with a telescope.
I saw that on the horizon in the distance, a torrent of fiery red fire ants was surging towards the slope at a high speed.
"Mom...... It's fire ants, big swarms of fire ants! ”
"Whoosh...... Whoosh ......! ”
"Smack...... Bang bang ......! ”
Before Zhu Shan's cannon could speak, along the edge of the jungle below the mountain, countless red signal flares rose, which was the anomaly team on the patrol line and discovered the ant situation at the same time.
"Squeak...... Creak! ”
"Team 16, prepare the oil for fire, you follow us and light it!"
At this time, the walkie-talkie on Li Xiaozhi's waist rang, the effective distance of this thing is a little weak and pitiful, especially in this kind of mountain, but at the moment, human beings only have this thing that can be barely used, because all communication satellites have been incorporated or destroyed by predators.
Li Xiaozhi took down the walkie-talkie and switched it on and off: "16 squad received!" ”
Fire oil is prepared after the discovery of fire ants in the settlement, and there is a separation zone more than ten meters wide at all passable intersections leading to the settlement, once the ants are found, you can open the oil drum placed in advance and ignite the stored fire oil, so that the advance channel of the fire ants will be blocked.
According to the arc of this mountain range, the entire patrol line is distributed on the arc, from the first to the thirty-sixth patrol point, there are a total of thirty-six squads led by the stranger in the defense, the first to ignite the fire oil is the first squad, this team happens to be led by Guo Feng.
He originally taught newcomers in Settlement No. 2 and No. 3, but because he was close enough to Settlement No. 04, he brought people here to obey orders as soon as possible.
This was followed by the second squad...... Third Squad...... Extrapolating from this.
After igniting the oil oil, a dense sound of rifles rang out in the direction of the first squad, and even the explosion of grenades mixed with the gunfire.
Guo Feng looked at the burning fire oil channel ant colony, and suddenly felt a little powerless, because the number of this group of fire ants was too large, and it was useless to say that it was overwhelming.
"Dada...... Sudden .........! ”
At this time, all the team members who fired the shot were a little hysterical, because the thing in front of them was so unexpected.
The attack and defense of a single fire ant are not particularly strong, and when hit by a rifle bullet, the whole thing will explode into a puddle of mud.
But their number is a bit excessive, so dense that people are going to commit a phobia.
Because of the need to avoid the detection of predator aircraft, the soldiers of the military are not equipped with any high-power weapons, but some conventional weapons that they carry with them, and these teams of supernatural beings are more cold weapons or bows and crossbows.
In this way, they are a little less lethal to fire ants, after all, the number of these small things is too large.
"Boom......!"
Guo Feng ignited a raging fire and flew into the sky, intending to attack the ant colony on the ground with his supernatural flames.
As a result, as soon as he flew into the air, he saw that the vanguard of the ant colony was actually rushing towards the fire without fear of death, and there was no intention of stagnation at all.
"This ......!"
The next moment, he was completely stunned, because those fire ants were not burned to death in the first place after rushing into the burning oil, they were moving quickly while spraying formic acid towards the flames, as if they wanted to use formic acid to extinguish the flames.
The torrent-like ant colony rushed through the fire oil burning area in an instant, because the number of fire ants killed by the fire was pitiful, and the Alien Squad never dreamed that the fire ants had evolved to be not afraid of the flames.
This is worth it, the first line of defense that wasted a lot of manpower and material resources was broken in an instant, which was simply too much beyond expectations.
Seeing the ant colony rushing to the second line of defense, Guo Feng yelled on the walkie-talkie: "All the squads retreat to the second line of defense, ready to open the gate and release the water!" ”
Irrigation is indispensable in tens of kilometers of fertile land, and after the discovery of the ant colony, the colony sent a large number of manpower to deepen and widen the waterways for flood discharge and irrigation to serve as a second line of defense against the ant colony.
Large quantities of pesticides brought from the hives were dumped in a large reservoir used for irrigation at the bottom of the mountain.
Once the colony is about to break through the second line of defense, this poisonous ditch can cause them a lot of casualties.
"Rustle......rustle!"
After the torrent of ant colonies rushed through the area where the fire oil was burning, the man-made moat was suddenly broken, and many of the squads also withdrew behind the second line of defense.
"Brother Zhang Long, take your people upstream to release water!"
Suddenly, Guo Feng's voice sounded on the walkie-talkie of Zhang Long, the leader of the fourth squad.
Zhang Long inserted the walkie-talkie into his waist: "The fourth team came with me, Commander Guo asked us to go upstream to release water, everyone rushed up with all their strength, these guys are nothing more than a group of ants!" ”
"Yes, Captain, we will follow your footsteps and never be left behind!"
Gu Xiaojie raised the guy in her hand and said babblingly.
"Girl, put your dick away, in case you get a picture of the predator, I'm afraid it's a little bad!"
The little girl held up the Vulcan cannon with a look of indifference: "Don't worry, uncle, I'm not a hot weapon, and the predators don't care at all!" ”
According to Gu Xiaojie's qualifications, she is fully capable of leading a team of supernatural people, but this girl is a little sassy and can't afford this responsibility at all, so the organization arranged for her to join Zhang Long's team and make up for Zhang Long's shortcomings in attack power.
At this moment, the fire ant colony has passed through the first line of flame defense and is approaching the second line of defense, the insecticide-laden ditch.
The direction of the reservoir was just in front of the fourth squad, and Zhang Long pointed to the ant colony: "Rush over, open the sluice, and drown these ants." ”
The six team members, plus Zhang Long himself, stared at the ant colony and rushed forward.
"Huh...... Let's go! ”
Flesh Evolver Liao Jianguo and a few comrades-in-arms each danced an iron lift, constantly slapping the fire ants in front of them, creating a place for themselves and their teammates to move forward with a burst of pulp.
"Whoa!"
With a wave of Zhang Long's hand, a large water curtain fell from the sky, forcibly emptying the place dozens of meters in front of him, and then the team members quickly passed through the place where there was no ant colony.
"Zila!"
Suddenly, a thin strip of formic acid shot out from the oblique thorn and hit Liao Jianguo's cheek.
"Ah......h
A pain that was almost corroded by strong acid spread instantly, and Liao Jianguo screamed miserably, and was about to reach out to cover his injured cheek.
"Don't scratch...... Crash! ”
Zhang Long roared, and at the same time, a handful of water was poured directly on Liao Jianguo's face, this kind of burning can only be rinsed with clean water to fully dilute the concentration of formic acid, in order to achieve the purpose of alleviating the pain.
"Ah......h
As soon as Zhang Long's water of ability was sprayed on Liao Jianguo's face, another teammate, Yu Zhonghua, also let out a scream, and he was also sprayed on his face with formic acid.
"Boom......!"
At the same time, Gu Xiaojie's Vulcan cannon opened fire angrily, this girl was already suffocating, but now when she saw her comrades seriously injured by these small sprays of formic acid, she was immediately angry, at this time, she didn't care about predators or not, she solved the dilemma in front of her first.
The dense amount of ammunition from the Vulcan cannon cleared a passage in an instant, and Gu Xiaojie shouted: "Uncle Zhang Long, hurry up and follow me, there are too many ants, and my 'small fire' is estimated to not last long!" ”
"Captain...... Xiaojie is right, it's important to complete the task, leave us alone! ”
"Ah......h
Before Liao Jianguo's words fell, another team member was shot in the eye by formic acid, and he couldn't see anything at that time, but the team member still yelled.
"Captain, leave us alone, once the ant colony passes through the three lines of defense, the colony is very likely to be lost!"
Wang Li...... Follow me, it takes two people to open the sluice gate at the same time! ”
The current situation is not at all abrasive, Zhang Long immediately yelled at a team member and followed him to the sluice gate to release water.
The next moment, Gu Xiaojie opened the way in front of her with the Vulcan cannon in her hand, and Zhang Long and Wang Li followed closely behind and rushed in the direction of the sluice.
At the same time, the thirty-six teams of the Alien were seriously injured by the spraying of formic acid by the fire ants to varying degrees, but there was no way, there were too many fire ants, and they were almost all-engulfing.
Guo Feng stood in the void with a body of flames, and the sense of powerlessness struck again, in this case, even if the second line of defense really worked, I am afraid that it will be a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to solve the problem, the third line of defense behind is composed of manpower, and if there is no large-scale lethal weapon, ordinary soldiers are simply sending food to the ant colony, and from this point of view, let alone ordinary soldiers, even those physical evolutionaries may not be able to effectively block the ant colonies all over the mountains......
