Chapter 141: Assisting in Defense
At this time, Feng Jun, who came from afar, couldn't help but ask: "Commander, the mutant animals over there in the Dragon King Hall haven't arrived yet?" ”
His 7th Brigade had already gone through a round of fighting and just came back to change the guard.
"There are still 10 minutes left before the appointed time." Zhang Ji replied and asked, "Is there anyone in your 7th Brigade injured again?" ”
"Hmmm! Three more soldiers were wounded, and one more was seriously wounded. Feng Jun's face was a little ugly.
When they cleared the Dongling Mountains before, they mainly dealt with those mutant animals, and as for these mutant insects, they could only cause them some minor troubles at most.
They can even throw these mutated insects to the security company behind them to deal with.
But now, the situation is completely different.
The comprehensive strength of these mutant insects has increased by at least 5 times, even if they are wearing combat uniforms, these second-level mutant insects can directly bite through the protective clothing and tear off a piece of flesh and blood.
That's outrageous.
If it weren't for these mutant insects, their defense was extremely low, and they brought a lot of powerful insecticidal water this time, it would be a question of whether they could win the battle.
"Let the brethren hold on a little longer, and collect the data well."
"The combat effectiveness of mutant insects has exceeded our estimates, and the combat method will definitely be changed later." Zhang Ji comforted.
Suddenly, an air defense siren sounded to the south of the Red Rock mine.
At the same time, the communicator in Zhang Ji's hand also came out.
"Report sir, in the southwest direction, a mutant parrot with a wingspan of 20 meters has been spotted, flying towards our Hongyan mine, please instruct."
Hearing the words mutant parrot, Zhang Ji's first reaction was that the parrot messenger from the Dragon King Hall had come, but when he heard that the wingspan reached 20 meters, he hesitated a little.
Because of the previous parrot messenger, the wingspan was only 5 meters, and the gap between the two was too big.
After a slight silence, Zhang Ji ordered: "Let the air defense team stay on alert, but don't shoot." ”
He wanted to see the situation first, after all, there were only a few fierce birds with a wingspan of 20 meters before, and all of them were under the command of the mutant king cobra.
Less than 30 seconds after he gave the order, he saw a huge mutant parrot hovering over the Red Rock Mine.
The other party also seemed to be looking at the situation below.
Then Zhang Ji found that the other party was descending in his direction, but when he descended to about 30 meters, he stopped.
"Let your people, move the muzzle of the gun." A voice was heard in the sky.
Seeing the mutant parrot in front of him, he spoke, Zhang Ji didn't know where he was, it was really the parrot messenger.
He hurriedly ordered the guard to be lifted, and the mutant parrot landed.
"Parrot Bringer, how did you get so big?" Zhang Ji looked at the huge parrot standing up in front of him with a height of 6 meters, and although he had a guess in his heart, he couldn't help but ask.
"Because of this diplomatic mission, I performed well, and I was rewarded by Lord Dragon King, who directly helped me break through to the third order." The mutant parrot said.
Hearing this, Zhang Ji and Feng Jun glanced at each other, and they both saw the look of shock in each other's eyes.
According to their understanding, these mutated creatures can break through, either by being extraordinary in their own right, or by relying on aura to revive.
And now, that mutant king cobra can help others break through, and the meaning of this represents is completely different.
A few days ago, there were only 2 third-order mutant creatures on the entire danger list.
Moreover, after the revival of the aura, the number of third-order mutant creatures increased dramatically, and according to the estimation of the Mutation Administration, the number of third-order mutant creatures in the entire Yang City area may have reached 20.
Although 20 third-order mutant creatures don't sound like much, they have already made the military feel the pressure.
After all, third-order mutant creatures are no longer afraid of ordinary bullets, and they have an extremely keen sense of danger, so it is not easy to hit them with rockets or howitzers.
So basically, a third-order mutant creature needs to dispatch a whole team of soldiers to be able to deal with it.
10 Level 3 mutant creatures appear at the same time, and they can threaten a group.
If 100 third-level mutant creatures appear and attack Yang City together, it is possible that the city will be destroyed.
Originally, Zhang Ji also felt that around Yang City, it would take a long time to give birth to 100 mutant creatures.
But now......
"Your Dragon King, is it easy to help others break through?" Zhang Ji couldn't help but ask.
"Do you think I'm going to tell you about something so secret?" The mutant parrot said with a smirk.
Zhang Ji: "......"
"Okay, I'm here to inform you that the team sent by our Dragon King Hall is about to arrive, and here in your Hongyan Mine, it is the team of mutant buffalo and black crow to assist in the defense, now say it in advance, lest you point a gun at will."
"You must know that the perception of mutated creatures is very keen, and you are pointing a gun at it, which is tantamount to provocation." The mutant parrot said, clearly alluding to what had just happened.
"Don't worry, I will definitely explain it, so that the guns in the soldiers' hands don't aim indiscriminately." Zhang Ji hurriedly said.
These are all trivial matters, and there is no need to offend allies because of this little thing.
The mutant parrot didn't say anything more, and stood here silently waiting.
As for Zhang Ji, he also used the communicator to inform everyone of the news of the imminent arrival of reinforcements, so that the guns in their hands should not be aimed at randomly.
Not long after he gave the order, news came from the adjutant's side that a large number of mutated animals had appeared in the southwest.
Hearing the news, Zhang Ji found that he was inexplicably relieved in his heart.
No way, in the past half an hour, the pressure on them from mutant insects is really too great.
He immediately asked the adjutant to bring a telescope and look into the distance.
The first thing that caught my eye was a large group of mutant black crows, more than 200 second-order mutant black crows, flying from a distance, giving people the feeling that a large dark cloud was approaching.
However, during the negotiation this morning, the battle was even bigger, so this time there was not much shock in Zhang Ji's heart.
It's more about anticipation.
He wanted to know, how strong could the combat power of these second-order mutant animals be? How much burden can be relieved of them.
Below the flock of birds, the sea of trees swayed, led by two extraordinarily large mutant buffaloes, which went on a rampage without any scruples, and some of the weak trees were directly broken.
Behind them, there were also 13 mutant buffaloes that were also not small, although there were only 15 mutant buffaloes in the entire team, but they ran with a momentum of thousands of troops.
In the three days of aura recovery, Ye Feng did not let these animals under his command idle.
Let them go around the city and collect all the mutated animals as much as possible.
In particular, the animal species he has contracted are even more focused on finding targets.
A total of 39 mutant buffaloes were found, and now they are divided into three teams, exactly 13 in one team.
What makes Ye Feng feel a pity is that the number of mutant buffaloes in the wild is really small, if the quota is full, a third-order mutant buffalo will lead 200 second-order mutant buffaloes, and it will be spectacular to run.
"That's strong!" Zhang Ji looked at the two mutant animal groups that were approaching, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas~ The Dragon King Hall has just been rebuilt, and they can only be used to fill the number, thinking about how majestic it was when there were 100,000 alien beast armies. It's a pity that the original battle ......"
Zhang Ji, who was listening attentively on the side, saw that the other party did not continue, and felt like scratching his ears and cheeks in his heart.
"Parrot Emissary, was the Dragon King Hall so powerful back then? Then why didn't there survive in the back? Zhang Ji couldn't help but ask.
"It's a secret, you can't say it, and you'd better forget what I just said." The mutant parrot glanced at the other party and said lightly.
He didn't make it up, what can he say?
Although Zhang Ji looked a little disappointed, he quickly cheered up, and then ordered the soldiers around the mine to cooperate with the friendly forces to defend.
But then, a surprising scene occurred.
The mutant buffaloes, after entering the mine's defensive circle, stopped, and then they circled the mine's perimeter and began to patrol.
Wherever the mutant buffalo herd passed, the mutant insects that had been quite crazy before scattered like mice seeing cats.
And even if the mutant buffalo herd left, they didn't even dare to come back.
Even if there are occasionally a few mutant insects, which are fierce by nature and unwilling to leave, they will be targeted by those mutated black crows hovering in the sky and quickly dealt with.
Even if the insect mutates, it has no power to resist against mutated animals of the same level.
For these soldiers of the Sixth Regiment, the incomparably tricky mutant insects were solved like child's play.
This scene made all the soldiers and officers a little dumbfounded, and even wondered if they hadn't woken up.
Zhang Ji saw all this clearly through the telescope, and while he was shocked, he was also full of doubts.
He had thought that even if he could finally drive the mutant insects away, he would at least have to fight.
But fortunately, there is a bird next to him that understands.
So, he asked directly, "Parrot messenger, why is this happening?" ”
"What else? The law of the jungle is the law of nature! ”
"In the eyes of those mutant insects, you are food, and of course they will attack like crazy."
"But we're predators, isn't it normal for them to run away?" The mutant parrot said with a smile.
Zhang Ji felt as if he had been stabbed in his heart, and he stirred it fiercely.
"Haha, just kidding, the two mutant buffaloes led by them have reached the third order, and their breath is enough to scare away any second-order mutant creatures. So wherever they go, the mutated insects will run away. ”
"But this breath won't last long, so keep your soldiers on the alert, don't get killed and injured by those mutated insects." The mutant parrot reminded.
Zhang Ji felt a little better in his heart, but he understood that many sincere words were often said in a joking way, such as what the other party said just now.
"Understood, I'll tell them to pay attention." Zhang Ji said immediately.
"Alright, I'm going to the next mine." As soon as the mutant parrot said a word, it took off.
Next, when Ye Feng went to the other two mines, he never encountered anyone pointing at gunpoint again, and it was obvious that the teams stationed here had already received notices in advance.
With the active cooperation of the military, everything went very smoothly, and the other two teams soon took over the defense of the remaining mines.
After doing all this, Ye Feng controlled the mutant parrot and flew towards Yang City.
This is the first formal cooperation between the two sides, and in this case, the mutant panda, the image ambassador, naturally cannot be idle.
Ye Feng also didn't know how to make the mutant panda collect the power of faith, so now he needed to keep trying to establish a positive image for the other party.
Soon, the mutant parrot found the panda and at the same time expressed its intention to the staff who followed the panda.
It is hoped that the municipal department will cooperate with this action and hold a special topic or live broadcast to publicize the friendly cooperation between the two sides.
For this proposal of the mutant parrot, it was naturally impossible for the municipal department to refuse, and soon the propaganda department took action.
……
And the people who feel all these changes the most are neither these soldiers who are defending, nor the people who have received the notice and are ready to watch the live broadcast.
It's the workers who are in the mines, waving their sweats.
In the Red Rock Mine, a dark-skinned middle-aged man is holding an iron pickaxe and lifting a boulder.
But under the rock, there is a mutant centipede that is half a meter long.
Seeing this centipede, the middle-aged man was instantly frightened and turned pale, he shouted in horror, dropped the stone and ran backwards.
However, his reaction was fast, and the mutant centipede's reaction was even faster, its body bent, and then it bounced out like a slingshot, and slammed straight into the middle-aged man's back.
The sharp mouthparts of the centipede are getting closer and closer to the neck of the middle-aged man, as long as he pounces on it, it is estimated that the middle-aged man will be killed in the next moment.
This scene was naturally seen by everyone around, and even the soldiers patrolling not far away also saw it, but it all happened too quickly, and they didn't have time to rescue at all.
Just when everyone thought that the worker was dead, a black shadow swooped down in the sky, and grabbed the centipede with one claw before it touched the middle-aged man.
Then the claws tightened, and with great force, the centipede was directly cut into three sections.
The mutated black crow that easily dealt with a mutant centipede, flapped its wings, and flew back into the sky, hovering around, its eyes staring downward, ready to strike again at any time.
"I'm scared to death." The middle-aged man sat on the ground, gasping for air.
"Lao Zhang, this time can be regarded as your fate, you should burn paper after you go back, thank your ancestors for their blessings." At this time, the nearby workers had already gathered around, and some people said with palpitations.
Lao Zhang, who was sitting on the ground, heard the worker say this, he first nodded, and then shook his head.
"Of course, the ancestors want to worship, but they have to thank these mutated creatures, I heard that they seem to be called the Dragon King Palace, right? Statues will be built all over the city in the future, and I will pay homage to them when the time comes. ”
