Chapter 109: The Princess

The attack on the Dragon Gate has been difficult to sustain.

The secret stronghold, which served as a communications hub and logistical supply, has fallen, and the troops have not only lost their means of communication, but also have limited weapons and ammunition;

Xiacheng, which has many sympathizers and can rest and recruit troops here, is now blocked in all directions, and the black and white roads of Longmen are dispatched at the same time, like a patient hunter to carry out a search and arrest building by block, and the meticulousness of the action can almost be described as 'leaky';

To add insult to injury, the cadres who should have stepped forward and shouldered heavy responsibilities in difficult times are now either killed in battle, seriously injured, or missing. Several units that are not subordinate to each other are even more leaderless, resulting in more and more blind operations.

Despite the unequivocal statements of the liaison officer from Chernobog, such as 'the leader had expected everything', 'the difficulties were only temporary', and 'reinforcements were on the way', there were still more and more people who were pessimistic about the situation and planned to leave Longmen.

If they left directly, Zhao Xi would not be bothered, but Lin Yuxia's call revealed a helpless fact:

The snow monster team that had infiltrated the abandoned city, Chernoborg's 'Area 14', is now also in the slum. As the only fully formed force, they are attacking the power hub of Longmen to cover the withdrawal of friendly forces.

Converting the source stone into energy, satisfying the consumption of small residential lamps and large central engines, the power hub can be said to be the most important and core area of the mobile city. If it has three long and two short, the gantry will stop the public facilities at the lightest, and a 'big firework' will be released at the worst.

Even if the Nexus was already impregnably well guarded, no one dared to gamble with the Dragon Gate and its millions of inhabitants, and after some deliberation, the defenders had to mobilize a heavy force to besiege the lone snow monster.

And Zhao Xi and the others were also asked by Lin Yuxia to participate in the interception, after all, the drainage system was directly above the power hub, and the enemy would definitely pass through the area where they were.

After some discussion, Zhao Xi left the bard in the resettlement area, and he accompanied Hannah and the doctor to the passage and began to set up a blocking position. As for the beautiful swordsman who cooperated for the first time...

The agreement between Rhode Island and Penguin Logistics does not include such matters, but fortunately, the parties are very enthusiastic and offer to help.

With a new force to join, Zhao Xi naturally couldn't ask for it. Ordering the strong men to lock the gate again, looking back at the irregular triangular rejection horses in the passage and the barbed wire fence wrapped around them, the young man could not help but give birth to the illusion that he was fighting a trench.

"I hope it works..."

"It's better than nothing, not to mention that they also contain mysteries, friends from other worlds seem to be old-fashioned, and many technologies are actually beyond the reach of Terra~" Seeing that Hannah didn't react to her frowning, the doctor pursed his lips self-deprecatingly.

"Brother, our friend is not easy to get along with~"

Recalling Hannah's performance, Zhao Xi nodded in agreement. The young man who threw the thistle near the horse and clapped his hands noticed that the temperature began to drop, and hurriedly opened his mouth to warn everyone.

The place where the snow monster haunts, accompanied by a shadow and a cooling down, this feature was told to Zhao Xi by the frost leaf at the beginning.

I hope her ore disease will not worsen, Yin Yin is still a child but suffering from a terminal illness, which is really a bit unfair. With thoughts surging in his mind, Zhao Xi dragged the smiling doctor to the base of the wall, and let him hide despite the latter's strong objections.

The sound of hurried footsteps was getting closer and closer, and the temperature in the vicinity continued to drop, and as soon as everyone exchanged glances, more than a dozen infected people in white clothes appeared in view.

At the same time, Zhao Xi and the others, who were blocking the way, raised their hands without saying a word, and an ice ridge shot out from their palms.

Negotiation is a waste of words, and the problem can only be solved by hands, and the two sides have reached a tacit understanding on this point.

After squatting to avoid the source stone spell, Zhao Xi returned the arrow condensed with the power of light; The Infinite Tower Himeko took out the handle crossbow out of nowhere, and aimed and shot at a glance.

But neither of them is as efficient as the Krieg warriors in gas masks and blue waterproof coats.

Like a fish returning to the pond, Hannah nimbly moves from obstacle to obstacle, dodging the snow monsters' spells. Armed with a quaint rifle, he calmly looks for an opportunity to leave holes in the snow monsters with a red beam.

Unfortunately, the Ursasi are generally physically strong, and the enemy has several healers, which greatly reduces his attacks.

Dodging and counterattacking at the same time, and having to take into account the doctor's safety, Zhao Xi's combat efficiency is destined to be inferior to that of his companions. Not to be outdone, someone sent a few powerful shots to see the enemy team spread out like a flower, and a cartel came to the front like a moon.

She was young, looking less than twenty years old, with snow-white skin and shawl hair of the same color. Dressed in the same style as the rest of the snow monsters, he wore a more worn combat uniform, and his boots made a crisp cracking sound as he stepped on the metal floor---

It was not an illusion, she was surrounded by a layer of hoarfrost, and the floor under her feet was also frozen, even if she was more than ten meters away, Zhao Xi could feel the cold of the air through the breathing apparatus.

If you compare her to a cold day, then the snow monsters are at best cold drinks in the hot season, and the two are not in the same dimension at all.

Now that she's in trouble, she looks a lot better than broken bones. Secretly complaining in his heart, Zhao Xi quickly switched his weapon to a musket and opened the contact with his companions.

"Can you..."

"No, Yelena's spirit is so much tougher than that chick that I can't even read her memories." It was clear that Zhao Xi's motives for contacting him were clear, and the doctor gave the answer without waiting for him to finish. "Try to thwart it, it's a big deal to execute Plan B."

It was still tricky before, but after the doctor's pointing, Zhao Xi quickly realized that their task was not to completely destroy the enemy, but to slow down the snow monster's advance as much as possible and buy time for the Guards Bureau to arrange an ambush circle.

Anyway, how to change the implementation of the delaying tactic, and the other party's mouth cannon? Tilting her head and considering whether to do this, the woman in her field of vision had stopped, and a fluid hoarfrost surged on her slowly raised arm.

Sure enough, the words and swords of both sides on the battlefield were deceitful, and he raised his longbow twice, and Zhao Xi didn't know if he was laughing at the doctor's misjudgment or laughing at himself for being too naïve.

"I'm the leader of the Snow Monster Squad, codenamed Frost Star, all of you from Rhode Island, freeze it."

Like Hannah, she has no desire to communicate, and the moment the Carters woman is in the newspaper, her open five fingers suddenly close. The shattered ice formed by the energy of the source stone then floated up, shattering and turning into crystal frost.

Before he could shout 'be careful', Zhao Xi released the arrow in his hand, and then jumped into the nearest foxhole (God knows how Hannah made this thing on the metal ground), holding his head in his hands against the ground.

In the next second, the cold air rolled in like a torrent, enveloping the entire position.
