Chapter 44: The Shadow
I don't know why, although the frontal battles continued, but the previous alien beast leaders never appeared.
It's not that the big guy is looking forward to encountering danger, but an enemy who can't be seen, but it's even more worrying, Lu Yi is exchanging opinions with the captains of the Hope District at this time, and everyone basically means the same.
Either these commanders will not appear, and their appearance will inevitably cause great turmoil, so Lu Yi decided to break up the team and no longer concentrate in one place.
Soon the team was divided into individual individuals, with two or three transports behind each armored vehicle.
Lu Yi divided all the combatants, 60 percent on the front, 20 percent on the back, and 10 percent on the left and right.
As a separate entity, the Hope is not counted among the combatants, but it has a much more important role, monitoring and guarding the skies over the entire convoy.
After more than ten years of operation, the Hope has changed dramatically, and this rescue vehicle of the previous era is now armed to the teeth.
It's just that what makes Lu Yi feel helpless is that the alloy material of the original aircraft hull can't be synthesized and reproduced by Lu Yi until now, which is his heart disease and has been with him to this day.
The terrifying creature back then, its huge claws tore through the shell and smashed through the protective shield of the cockpit, and this scene was thrown into his heart, like a nightmare that he could not forget.
He has a greater goal in mind, to cooperate with the Hope operation with robots, to explore beyond the Land of Light, to find an opportunity to restore the earth, which is also his hope that he hopes to do all this in his lifetime, and help humanity regain the lost land.
After another round of fierce fighting, the front team withdrew a batch, and the internal armored vehicles moved forward to exchange with them, as much as possible to ensure that the living forces would not get tired of fighting.
At this moment, there are still less than five hundred miles away from their next destination, Luofeng City, and looking back at Hope City, except for the light refracted by the prism, the shadow of the city has long been gone.
On both sides of this path, there is a dark abyss where you can't see your fingers, and within the surging black mist, it seems that countless demons are waiting to break through the cage.
A deafening and terrible howl echoed around the convoy all the time, which was the terrifying existence in the dark, intimidating their group.
At this time, the guards of the convoy and the technicians on the Hope were staring nervously at the screen and radar display, for fear that negligence would cause irreparable consequences.
It stands to reason that such a careful arrangement and such a high-intensity search will be foolproof.
But often when you think it's foolproof, that's when it's all too secret.
The convoy moved forward unusually smoothly, and for some reason the alien beasts began to become scarce, and there was no more desperate pursuit and interception on the way.
Just when everyone thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, a mutation suddenly appeared, and the earth suddenly cracked after a loud rumbling sound, enveloping the entire convoy.
Countless black vines scurried out of the cracked earth below, curling up at the armored vehicles and transports.
There was a noisy sound from the dark rift species, and then countless alien beasts rushed out of it and swooped towards the convoy.
Lu Yi was stunned by this sudden scene, he never thought that the enemy would attack the convoy in this way.
Fortunately, the convoy was broken into pieces, and the fighters quickly jumped out of the armored vehicles and began to form groups of three and two, surround the alien beasts that had been killed from the cracks.
Jian Chun's face was a little ugly at the moment, because she already knew who the initiator was, when they were blocking in the north of the Hope Zone, the commander-level alien plants led by them used this method to sneak attack them.
But now they had suffered the same loss again, which made her angry and remorseful.
She immediately reported the situation to the command center and took all the responsibility on herself, Lu Yi asked her not to think too much and concentrate on solving the current trouble.
Because there were non-combatants in the car, Jian Chun wanted to let Xiang Shaojie and Wei Guangming stay in the car, but Xiang Shaojie refused, and he left the armored car with the combatants in the car without saying anything.
Xu Qing looked at Xiang Shaojie's back, her heart was mixed, she sighed faintly, silently clasped her hands together, and prayed for his son and everyone.
Wei Guangming went directly to the top floor of the armored car, and with the other personnel, he began to clean up the alien beasts that were pouring around.
After Jian Chun explained, he also jumped out of the car, holding a gun in each hand, the runes around him were shining, and the two guns sprayed blue streamers, like a phantom, and killed into the monster pile.
Today, every armored vehicle is a fixed point of fire, and after receiving all the supplies and modifications in the Hope Zone, they can now be said to be armed to the teeth.
The small squares that flickered on the screen in the cockpit were the automatic sighting system of the armored car.
They quickly roam over the radar, locking on and attacking every red point of light that is close to their position.
As for the transporters, although they don't have such strong firepower, they are large enough and the armor is strong enough, even if they are attacked by the alien beast, the armor inlaid on the hull of the vehicle can resist the attack of the alien beast below the third level.
The top of each transporter is equipped with a set of automatic defense devices, which can play a certain role in protection and containment, but it is limited to this, and the firepower is very limited.
However, now, under Lu Yi's arrangement, the armored vehicles and transport vehicles formed one protective wall after another, and with the body and the weapons on it alone, the alien beast was killed and injured countless times.
The fighters relied on them to fight, and they were not besieged from all sides, but in a few places, armored vehicles and transports were bogged down in the cracks, and a few even overturned.
But none of this was expected, and no one expected the enemy to attack in this way, and the only thing that could be done was to defend the attack and get the men out of the place safely.
Wei Guangming's pupils looked around, he didn't seem to need himself here, because such a small place couldn't play the role of his pupil power at all.
So, like Xiang Shaojie, he was about to leave the armored car to fight, he glanced at the people in the car, looked at their panicked expressions, and walked quickly towards the exit.
At this time, he saw Qin Shuang comforting Xu Qing, the two women hugged each other, he didn't know what he was talking about, he didn't bother the two, walked past them, opened the door of the armored car, jumped down from above, the ability runes on the armor lit up, and the weapon immediately turned into two guns, and with simple steps, he killed the surrounding ability beasts.
And at this moment, the Hope in the sky above suddenly detected something, and a piercing alarm sounded in the command room, and a huge red dot was rapidly approaching the area where they were at an alarming speed.
Lu Yi and the other operators looked at the conspicuous huge red dot on the screen, and didn't know what to do for a while.
