Chapter 440: Chu Renmei?
In the darkness of the night, the sound of huge warframes and heavy mechs sounded.
If they wanted to sneak, they couldn't do it, so Xia Lu could only lead them to the mountains and forests depressedly.
When approaching the mountain pass, Xia Lu faintly felt an unusual breath and hurriedly asked everyone to stop.
With a bang, the sound of a heavy mecha stopping.
In the darkness of the night, the voice sounded very loud.
Xia Lu lowered his head and exhaled viciously.
Although the battle armor increases his combat effectiveness, with such a group of people, he really feels a little difficult.
As soon as the team stopped, Li Chongguang hurriedly dragged a heavy suit of armor over.
"What's the matter, is there an enemy ahead?"
He looked not scared, but excited.
"No, it just doesn't feel right, I'll go investigate, you guys wait here."
Xia Lu said immediately.
"You don't need to go, I'll take someone with me, you are the main force of this team, I can't let you take risks."
Li Chongguang became even more excited when he heard that there was a reconnaissance mission, and without saying a word, he went to the depths of the dark woods without saying a word.
Xia Lu wanted to stop him, but he grabbed his arm, but he was dragged forward by his heavy armor and couldn't stop Li Chongguang.
His armor had kinetic devices, and he walked with great inertia, and he didn't even notice that someone was dragging him.
Several Luodu warriors wearing battle armor were also militant, and Li Chongguang rushed in regardless of the danger as soon as he beckoned them.
In the blink of an eye, several people disappeared into the darkness.
Xia Lu had no choice but to let people dig trenches on the spot to observe the situation in the woods.
The dark woods soon fell silent, and even the voice of the armor could not be heard.
A long time has passed, Xia Lu thought that these people were all wiped out, but he didn't expect Li Chongguang and them to come out.
They were all unscathed and showed no signs of battle.
"Commander Xia, there's nothing in it, nothing but some xenomorph corpses."
As he spoke, he opened the armor lid on his arm, revealing a projector.
"This armor of mine is equipped with the most advanced energy sensing device, which can sense thermal energy, electromagnetic energy, etc., and there is no energy flow on it, so there should be nothing in it."
He didn't dare to say that Xia Lu was suspicious, but his attitude expressed that Xia Lu was too cautious.
Xia Lu frowned when he heard this.
His feeling can't be wrong, there must be a ghost in it.
At this time, Hua Weiwei, Qi Xinya and Xu Qing also came over.
They are all commanders, they are not as fierce as Xia Lu, they are directly exploring the way at the front of the team, they have been in the middle of the team just now, within layers of protection.
Seeing that the team had stopped for a long time, and the scout team had returned, and the team had not moved, they came over to check on the situation.
"What's going on, what's up ahead?"
Hua Weiwei asked as soon as he came over.
Xia Lu briefly explained the situation and then said: "I feel that something is wrong ahead, you guys listen here now, and I'll investigate it myself." ”
Hua Weiwei frowned when they heard this.
Qi Xinya's face was full of displeasure: "Li commanded them to be equipped with the most advanced technology, and they didn't detect any problems, what's the use of you going?" But since you think there is a problem, then you don't need to go in person, my people can help you with this. ”
After saying that, she directly beckoned to the people behind her.
Before Xia Lu could react, a loud bang rang out.
At the rear of the team, Qi Xinya's heavy firepower units opened fire together, and the huge electromagnetic railgun emitted a burst of blue light, and several shells pierced the night sky, shooting towards the forest in the distance.
A roar followed, the earth trembled slightly, and the trees ahead of them burst into flames.
Call!
The sound of shaking and the fierce light of the fire made many people in the team cheer.
The people in Cloud City are all a bunch of hormone warriors, and they don't like this sneaky way of marching, and they have suppressed it for a long time.
Seeing this, Xia Lu smiled bitterly.
It seems that today's team is really difficult to lead.
The people of Cloud City are not afraid even in the face of their own death threats, and madness is their way of life.
And Luo Du led the team with Li Chongguang, who was paranoid about war, and he was more excited than the people in Cloud City when he saw the firelight.
"Brothers, let the brothers in Cloud City see our firepower."
Without waiting for Xia Lu to have an order, he also gave an order to his subordinates.
There was another roar, and a larger fire lit up in the trees ahead.
Xia Lu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Seeing the excitement of these people, he really wanted to slap each of them.
Although the movement was loud, the woods were still quiet, and there was no sign of xenomorph activity.
"Look, there's nothing in there, can we continue on the march?"
Qi Xinya said to Xia Lu.
Xia Lu rolled his eyes.
"Are you fighting for the first time? If this kind of movement doesn't alarm the xenos inside, doesn't it mean that the situation is wrong? ”
These words made Qi Xinya and Hua Weiwei stunned.
If you think about it, that's really the case.
They are all so confident in their weapons and equipment that they ignore a lot of important information.
"You all wait, I'll go in and have a look."
After Xia Lu finished speaking, he walked straight towards the woods.
"Commander Xia wait for me, I'll go with you."
Li Chongguang hurriedly wanted to follow, but Xia Lu turned back with a stern look, and the three words "go back" were out of his mouth, which made Li Chongguang look confused, and he didn't know why he was angry.
The figure flickered, and the summer deer entered the woods.
The woods are quiet, no different from ordinary forests, and everything blends into the silence of the night.
However, the quieter it was, the more abnormal Xia Lu felt.
His figure quickly shuttled through the trees, his piercing gaze roaming the night, looking for even the slightest sign that something was wrong.
Sometimes, reconnaissance requires not only keen insight, but also time and patience.
It's not just a battle of wit, it's a comparison of patience.
Whoever loses patience first, the prey and the hunter's position change.
And Xia Lu is very patient, even if it takes a night, he can.
Slowly, an hour passed, two hours passed.
Xia Lu kept sneaking through the woods, and he had even walked three or four times on some roads.
And he still hasn't stopped investigating.
As long as he feels that something is wrong and does not detect something, he will not stop.
Soon, his reconnaissance came to fruition.
The other party apparently lost his patience first, and suddenly a low chant rang out in the woods.
Complaining, this is a woman singing an opera in a low voice, and her voice looks eerie and eerie in the dark woods.
Xia Lu quickly locked on to the position, but did not go over immediately, but scouted around and approached in a spiral.
Gradually approaching the position, Xia Lu suddenly found that the direction from which the sound came from was a small pond.
