Chapter 40: Dangerous Excavations
In the early morning, when the sun shone on the earth, the yin energy between heaven and earth began to be suppressed into the ground by the yang energy, and the archaeological team finally began the excavation work.
After Professor Tu came up with the excavation plan he had done overnight, the cultivators, under the command of the archaeologists, began to clear the surrounding trees and began to move the soil under their feet with spells.
"Aang!"
Also at the moment when the excavation of the archaeological team began, on the higher mountain in the distance, the neighing of the giant pig sounded again.
The next moment, the sound of rumbling hooves began to sound from the mountains around the excavation base, and the trees in the forest shook as if they had encountered a storm.
"Sure enough, these demons really didn't give up!"
Looking at the forest that suddenly became lively, Professor Tu looked really not relaxed, and said to Tie Xin and Captain Zhang seriously: "I will apply for new reinforcements immediately, you must hold on." โ
Hearing this, the two nodded firmly, and said, "Don't worry, we have been preparing all night last night, and today even those demons will shoot together, don't try to break our defenses in a short time." โ
Last night, they had built three formation walls around the camp and cut down all the trees on the hill, leaving a fairly wide view.
"That's good! I'll direct the digging as soon as I can. โ
Professor Tu nodded.
"Boom ยทยทยทยทยท"
As he spoke, countless wild boars were already surging out of the surrounding bushes around the camp. And this time there are not only wild boars, but also bison, goats, sheep and other domestic animals that have been wildened.
Since 30 years ago, after humans abandoned the countryside and settled in the cities, the areas outside the cities have become a paradise for animals, and many domestic animals that humans did not have time to take away when they evacuated have also become wild animals, and after 30 years of reproduction, their numbers are also very large.
"Fire!"
Looking at the animals and spirits that rushed out of the forest bushes, the iron core who quickly rushed to the first wall platform immediately gave a loud order.
In an instant, the sound of light and heavy machine guns continued to sound, and behind the third wall, there was the sound of mortar banging.
"Boom..."
The sound of explosions continued to sound in the forest three hundred meters away, and the flames of the explosion continued to shine in the forest. Don't look at it as a mortar, but because the shells are made of high-performance new explosives, the power of the explosion is comparable to a 150 mm howitzer.
"Da Da Da ยท
"Knock knock..."
Light and heavy machine guns continued to strafe the animals that rushed out of the forest, shooting the surging animals and spirits to the ground, and even cultivators held rocket launchers to shoot rockets at those dense beasts or huge spirits. Every time a rocket explodes, it blows up a large area and clears out an open space within a range of more than ten meters.
This time, whether it is guns and ammunition, or the prepared formation props are more sufficient, although the enemy this time is not only a wild boar, but there is no pressure on everyone to defend.
In the camp, Professor Tu was also in full swing directing the archaeological team to excavate, of course, this excavation was not the archaeological team digging with a hoe, but the archaeological team personnel directing some cultivators to use spells to excavate.
The speed of excavation was also very fast, and in just two minutes, the excavation area drawn in the center of the camp had been dug to a depth of more than two meters. The excavated earth was piled up all around, and the fourth wall of the site was reinforced by monks.
โโโโโโโโโโ
"After all, the human race is well prepared, Shanjun, it's time to send your little one."
On the top of the mountain in the distance, the huge boar turned to a giant eagle parked on the rock behind him.
"Cry!"
Hearing this, the giant eagle didn't talk nonsense, it cried, spread its huge wings and flew into the sky, coiling in the sky, making a loud eagle cry.
With the sound of the eagle's cry, countless dense birds flew out of the mountains and forests on the top of the nearby mountains and gathered towards the human camp, including sparrows and eagles.
โโโโโโโโโโ
"Watch the sky, the second line of defense prepares for air defense, and the third line of defense raises the shield first."
Looking at the black clouds that kept flying from the nearby mountains, Tie Xin and Team Zhang roared loudly at the same time, directing the cultivators on the second wall to prepare for air defense. Order the third line of defense to raise a shield to prevent demons from escaping the net from storming the archaeological site.
In the next second, the black and white shield rose up on the third wall, enveloping the innermost archaeological camp in a semicircle.
The cultivators on the second wall raised their light and heavy machine guns and aimed them at the black clouds flying in the sky.
"Da Da Da Da..."
The next moment, a dense burst of gunfire began to ring, and rockets continued to drag white smoke towards the clouds of birds flying in the sky.
Compared to the wide firing range of only three hundred meters on the ground, the firing range in the sky is undoubtedly much farther.
As the gunshots rang out, I saw black clouds in the sky constantly falling black dots, which were birds and birds.
On the ground, under the explosion of mortars and rockets, the forest 300 meters away has been ablaze, and billowing black smoke is constantly rising towards the sky.
Although the forest has burned, there are still countless livestock rushing out of the surrounding forest endlessly, rushing towards the human camp without fear of death. Some sheep-like polychaetes, even with fires burning all over their bodies, are still rushing towards the human camp. It's as if the function of their lives is only to move forward.
"Lao Tie, something is wrong, these animals and spirits are too fierce to die! And there are too many of them. โ
On the first wall, looking at the animals that were enduring the burning flames and were also rushing towards the camp in a steady stream, Team Zhang shouted solemnly to Tie Xin.
Demons are all equal to human wisdom, it is impossible for their subordinates to sacrifice without a bottom line, once there are too many deaths, the demons will definitely not be able to sit still, either appear in person, or retreat, but now those demons still have no signs of coming out. And even if the mountains are a paradise for animals now, there are too many of them, and they are obviously far beyond the number of mountains and mountains that can be accommodated. And looking at it now, the number seems endless.
"It's not normal! I'm afraid these animals are not only in this lofty mountain, but on a larger scale. โ
Tie Xin replied, looking at the animals around him that were already rushing out, his heart heavy.
At this moment, even if they cultivated to the point that their brains were full of muscles, they also found that something was wrong.
Such a number of animals and spirits are beyond the capacity of this lofty mountain, and this is definitely a demon outside the forest.
Why did those demons come here, to stop the archaeological team from digging the tomb of King Miao.
