Chapter 159: Zombie Siege (11)
The soldiers paid a heavy price for casualties to defeat the worm that had woken up from its stagnant state and did not mean the end of it, but rather the beginning of a series of brutal battles.
More bug attacks followed.
With the anger of betrayal, they galloped skillfully through the alloy passage that belonged to them, and gradually a hideous and terrifying figure appeared at the end of the passage.
These hideous figures appeared at the end of the passage and were spotted by the reconnaissance unit, and in a ten-thousandth of a second, the information was sent to the superior thread through the brain-computer implant in his head, and all the soldiers on the defense line received their own action orders in a few tenths of a second.
Detect a large number of enemy reactions! All in place! All weapons are out of insurance!
The continuous explosions were like thunder and lightning, the anti-infantry mines and trigger bombs arranged along the alloy passage were triggered one after another with the attack of the insects, the high-temperature and high-pressure fireballs bloomed in the passage like brilliant fireworks, and the fragments of the exploded mines spread out in all directions in a radial shape, looking like they had turned into cold and deadly steel flowers.
In the passage, the flowers of flame and steel bloom in harmony.
The force field around the body of a bug monster rushing to the front lit up slightly, and the explosive heat was blocked out of the force field by an understatement, but the mines that exploded immediately brought countless sharp and deadly steel petals, and the dense fragments turned into terrifying weapons of kinetic energy under the high-pressure air current, piercing the carapace on his body like a devastation, beating him into a pile of rotten flesh mixed with carapace fragments, and falling to the ground and dying no longer dead.
The insect monsters immediately switched to the protection mode of the force field, and the fragments carrying huge kinetic energy suddenly slowed down visibly as if they had fallen into water, but the fire that exploded immediately after them engulfed these insect monsters in the heat and flames, turning them into charcoal.
This hybrid attack combines physically damaging fragmentation weapons with a purely chemical explosion that is extremely effective for a Bug's shield that can only activate a certain type of defense at a time.
After only one engagement, the chairman had already sensed the limitations of the opponent's shield and made targeted countermeasures.
For a while, countless insect monsters fell under the explosion of the first batch.
Although the weapon technology used by the insect monsters is significantly higher than that of humans by one or two generations, they are still flesh and blood, and they will bleed when injured; If you cut off your head, you'll die; The carapace is also pierced by fragments pushed by high-pressure air currents; When it encounters high temperatures, it will also be burned into a charred corpse; When the Force Field Shield can't protect them, even human weapons can actually damage them!
Not to mention that when these mines and bombs exploded, the soldiers who were behind the fortifications were not idle, firmly seizing the opportunity to attack these insects head-on.
The names of rockets, grenades, armor-piercing shells, and incendiary bombs represent the understanding and answers of human civilization to war.
From ancient times to the present, the weapons used by human beings in warfare have been upgraded and optimized, from the first stones to swords, and then from swords to guns and even nuclear weapons in the old world, human beings have always studied how to efficiently slaughter their compatriots, how to cause efficient destruction, and create nightmarish hell and death.
These weapons, which are decades or even centuries old, are still useful until the new century, and since the day they were invented by mankind, they have been refined and redesigned by countless clever minds, and the purpose is to inflict the most efficient killing and incurable fear and wounds on the enemy.
Nowadays, people are just aiming their guns at their compatriots at terrifying aliens from beyond the sky.
It's just that mines and trigger bombs will eventually run out, and the bugs are not stupid, after suffering losses, they quickly adjusted their forward direction, several bugs as a group of two force fields to move forward together, covering each other to block the damage caused by the explosion of mines and bombs, and against the flames of shelling and incendiary bombs, they rushed out of the mine array after paying a lot of casualties.
And these insect monsters that rushed out of the mine array changed the situation on the battlefield again.
At the same time, each unit on the battlefield received its own mission.
The bunker opens
Fire! Intensive shooting!
The fire in the firing port of the small bunker formed a dense barrage of bullet raindrops, but under the fluctuation of the invisible force field, the speed of the bullets just decreased sharply, and the vast majority of bullets fell to the ground weakly before they touched the carapace of the bugs, and although a few bullets carrying huge momentum broke through the defense of the force field, they also lost their due lethality after being weakened layer by layer, and a burst of sparks bounced on the carapace of the bugs, which did not have the slightest effect.
The first group of bugs had broken through the minefields with incredible speed, and were soon in front of the steel and concrete fortifications.
But at that moment, a fiery cylinder poked out of the firing mouth of the boxy bunker that was blocked in the alloy passage as a fortification.
That's a flamethrower.
The fire suddenly grew larger, and the ignited but not yet burned oil spewed through the force field and landed on the bugs' carapace, turning them into a ball of torches that fell to the ground.
When the companion in front falls, the insect monster that is protected behind will immediately pounce.
The insect monster wielded its sharp scythe arm to cut several shocking openings in the steel and concrete fortifications, as if slicing tofu to split the flesh and blood hiding inside;
Rumble!
Half of the soldier's body was cut off, and the bomb on his body exploded, and the fire engulfed his comrades and several insects.
Molotov cocktails! Throwing!
The crisp sound of pulling the ring was particularly eye-catching on the chaotic battlefield, and the black shadows dragging the red tail flame swirled in the sky and exploded at the explosion point, and the thermite reaction burst out with dazzling fire and sparks, turning the feet of the insect monsters into a sea of fire in the blink of an eye.
Immediately after, the sea of fire was slashed by two sword lights, and more insect monsters flashed with a faint force field of light rushing out of the flames, and the soldiers who were facing the defense line raised the guns clenched in their abdomen.
Maggots filled with corrosive acid and toxic substances are ejected from the biological guns, and the exploding acid rain and highly toxic substances dissolve the living life into puddles of pus, blood and festering flesh;
Switch rocket pistols and reload metal projectiles! Approaching the launch!
The orders of the superior thread echoed in the minds of the soldiers, and they untied their weapons from their backs, and raised the rocket pistol that the superior thread had spoken of with both hands.
It's a bit reluctant to describe that thing as a gun, but if you understand it as a kind of hand cannon, it instantly becomes appropriate, the flat and short gun body and the thick gun body that needs to be held with both hands, as well as the metal texture of unfinished paint painting, close to an inch close to the standard caliber of 25 Every detail of this gun reveals the unique aesthetics of the Industrial Revolution period, the exquisite mechanical structure and the thick and bulky volume are perfectly blended, plus the larger the caliber, the more just, the more firepower, the more truthful the concept influence, It is the creation of such a unique weapon.
Or if you want to swap unique for madness, there's nothing wrong with that.
Obviously, the close caliber of 25 makes it impossible for this gun to use any conventional ammunition, all ammunition needs to be special, and the so-called metal jet projectile is actually just a special rocket armor-piercing projectile according to this caliber.
It is also a new weapon that has never been seen in the old world.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The tail flame of the small rocket power group left a long-lasting trajectory in the air, this time, under the strong enough momentum and extremely close range, the deceleration force field completely lost its previous invincible effect, three rocket armor-piercing shells, the huge kinetic energy shattered the carapace and internal organs of the insect monster at the moment of contact, but this is not the end.
Warhead explosives detonated.
The symmetrical metal cavity inside the armor-piercing bullet quickly closed, and under the detonation wave of high temperature and high pressure, it melted into liquid in an instant, and then the hot and hot metal jet sprayed out at a speed of eight kilometers per second!
In an instant, even the air was pierced, and three jets of red-yellow and scorching metal pierced the entire battlefield like spears of light, tearing apart and piercing countless terrifying insects.
But the insect swarm is boundless, and the battlefield cleared by the metal jet is soon re-established by the insect monsters who have followed one after another
Cram.
Sharp tailbones shot out with the sound of breaking through the air, and in an understatement, they pierced the fortifications made of concrete and steel, tearing the soldiers hiding behind cover into scattered pieces, sending flesh and blood flying
The metal jets pierced the entire battlefield again and again, destroying everything that stood in its way, and was invincible.
Casualties on both sides are rising rapidly.
Every insect monster is a product of genetic adjustment, a natural warrior, adapted to the battlefield and battles of various environments, and the chairman of the human side has been over-preparing since the day Night City was established in order to deal with the inexplicable enemy, and has hoarded a large number of frenzied weapons and equipment and excessive technology, which is used to deal with the current situation.
Lives are being harvested efficiently, and although the two sides seem to be evenly matched at first glance, the scales of victory have gradually tilted in favor of the insect monsters.
There is no other reason, the technical advantage is too great.
Unlike the lone bug, this time they were a collective.
What does this mean?
It means that they will be more difficult than when they fight alone, they will cooperate with each other, they will help each other, they will cover each other.
As we all know, there is a limit to human power.
Of course, if you have to say that this thing is a worm and you can't call it a human, then replacing a person with a worm actually means the same thing.
It is almost impossible for a lone person to deal with a group with a division of labor and cooperation.
While it's true that teamwork can sometimes slow each other down and even hit your teammates, the advantage of a team is that you have the skill of cloneping, and someone will be responsible for covering and scouting for you when you charge, and you just need to concentrate on your own business.
Team combat means that everyone in the team only needs to follow the division of labor and make a contribution to complete their work at the right time, and they can easily get the same or even several times the harvest and results when one person fights alone.
Of course, the most important thing is that they have a lot of insects, and the number of sleeping insects in the static room is so large that the chairman feels terrified, even if there is one stubble after another on the front-line battlefield, it is only a drop in the bucket for the sleeping insects on the dense giant building.
Both sides are red-eyed, and the whole world is being drawn into a vortex of madness.
In the face of the desperately large number of endless insects, even if humans can inflict effective damage on them, they are defeated again and again, bunkers fall one after another, the defense line is broken through layer by layer, the various areas of the energy tower quickly fall into the control of the enemy, and the path of the insect monsters is scattered step by step as the area of the attack increases
A branch of leaves rolled forward towards the passage to the outside world.
The other is heading towards the deepest part of the Portal's Throne of Domination!
