Volume 3: Alienation Chaos Chapter 37 Zhao Xuchen vs the third fishman
Zhao Xuchen asked rhetorically: "There are only eight of us, and the drones in this vicinity don't dare to approach to support, and there are at least more than a hundred of them, if you are that fish, you will be afraid of only eight people?" ”
"And what if he only sent out those brainless mutants, and he himself refused to come out?"
"Isn't that what we're hoping for? The mutants under his command are terrifying, if there is no command from him, with those headless flies and the weapons in our hands, no matter how many there are those mutants, they will not all be slaughtered by us? ”
"Team leader, you are so wise, it doesn't match the legend, hehe."
"Legendary? Hehe, I'm a big living person, so soon to become a legend? Zhao Xuchen naturally knew the impression of outsiders on him, and he was not angry, but just humorous.
"Hey, hey." The six groups of soldiers didn't know how to answer, so they had to smirk and divert the topic, "Team leader, do you think it is possible for us to be the first group to ascend to the Shouhuang Palace this time?" ”
"The possibility is still very high, after all, we have a geographical advantage, but we can't be complacent in advance, other groups are not weak."
"Alright, let's gossip and get to work."
"Team leader, all the holes have been dug."
"Hurry up and set up the fan, prepare the poisonous smoke, you see that the group has already been done."
"Alright, we're ready too."
"Well done." Zhao Xuchen immediately turned on the walkie-talkie, "Call 00, 06 is ready." ”
……
00 received. Groups from one to eight, count down to 10 seconds, and start the action as planned. ”
“10、9、8…… 3, 2, 1, action! ”
"Power on!" Zhao Xuchen shouted, at this time, there is no need to hide anymore.
A large amount of poisonous smoke was blown into the hole they had dug beforehand, and soon smoke was rising from the ground in other places.
"Have you ever smoked real rats in the wild? I've smoked it. One of the soldiers laughed, "Such a thick smoke, even if it is not poisonous, the people inside can't stand it, get ready to catch mice." ”
One of the fighters said worriedly, "What if there is no one inside?" Isn't our poisonous smoke in vain? ”
Another fighter retorted: "Unnecessary worry, since the satellite footage shows that there is no one on the ground, then they can only hide in a hole in the ground, otherwise they can still be invisible?" ”
"It's coming, I've heard movement." A fighter with his ears pressed to the ground suddenly reminded, "Attention, everyone. ”
"Don't even make small talk, get ready!" Zhao Xuchen immediately ordered.
This so-called poisonous smoke is actually just a kind of drug that can make people's whole body soft, even if it is really accidentally inhaled, it will be automatically discharged from the body after 12 hours, and it cannot really kill people, but as one of the fighters above said, even if it is completely non-toxic, you will not be able to stand it if you hide in the hole, and you will be choked to death after a long time.
Soon, a large number of mutants came out from various places like ground mice, although there are not as many hidden holes here as near Zhou Xianting, but there are really a lot.
Some soldiers carried knives to chase and kill, and Zhao Xuchen shouted: "Shoot directly, don't run, don't worry about them if you're far away, as long as you don't run to the Shouhuang Palace." ”
"Okay, look at me, team leader." One of the fighters laughed, with a shotgun in his left hand and an air cannon in his right, and turned on the slaughter mode.
The air cannon took too long to compress the air, and sometimes the compression was completed, and there was not necessarily an enemy around, so he pressed the barrel down, and made a big hole in the ground, and it didn't take long for him to be filled with smoke, and a tunnel was blown down by him.
He didn't care, and continued to shoot into the distance, there are indeed a lot of mutants in this Yongen Temple, although because of the fog, their movements are a little slow, but it takes a lot of effort to kill them one by one, and for those moving targets, he can't hit every shot.
Just as he was interested in killing, a branch as thick as an arm shot out of the tunnel he had just collapsed, piercing his chest at once.
The soldier stopped shooting, stared blankly at his chest, and burst out in disbelief: "Damn." Then he was about to fall down as soon as his legs went limp, but before he could fall, the branch began to pull back.
Zhao Xuchen happened to see this scene and couldn't help but shout: "Lu Cheng! However, before he arrived, the soldier's body had been pulled back into the tunnel and disappeared, and it was too late to rescue him.
Zhao Xuchen had a bad premonition in his heart, there were probably mutants who were not afraid of poisonous smoke down here, he couldn't say why, he felt that if he didn't take action, the six groups of them would probably be wiped out.
Zhao Xuchen immediately took out his air cannon, and at the same time shouted to his subordinates: "Everyone, listen to my order, and destroy all the tunnels around here, hurry up!" ”
Suddenly, the sound of banging was endless, and all the land within a hundred meters around them was destroyed, more roads were blasted out, and more smoke came out of the ground.
"Beware of the ambush underground!" Zhao Xuchen walked around in circles while reminding, carefully observing the movements in each tunnel, for fear that there would be more mutants coming out.
"Team leader, come and see." A soldier called Zhao Xuchen not far away.
Zhao Xuchen quickly ran over, only to see that the soldier was holding a smoke mask in his hand, but the style, at first glance, was civilian disposable, which was very different from the gas mask they were wearing.
"Where did this come from?" Zhao Xuchen asked.
"In this tunnel, there was a mutant hiding underneath, and I was killed by a bombardment." The warrior pointed to his feet.
Zhao Xuchen was not too dirty, squatted down and began to pick up the blood and mud on the ground, the soldier next to him didn't know why, but the team leader did it, it was always inappropriate for him to look at it from the sidelines, and he also dug together.
Soon, all the soil was dug up, and Zhao Xuchen picked up a mine the size of a wine jar from the tunnel, polished it from a whole stone, and put it back on the ground.
"Holy." The soldier was startled, "Team leader, how do you know there's this thing down here?" ”
Zhao Xuchen shook his head and said in a low voice: "I don't know." ”
Suddenly, the soldiers of the six groups all surrounded them, but before they could lean over, they were stopped by Zhao Xuchen: "Don't come here, spread out a little, and pay attention to your feet at the same time, and then carefully look for any mines, and kill the mutants immediately if they see them." ”
Zhao Xuchen's caution did save all the members of their group, as time went on, they found more mutants wearing disposable smoke masks, and more improvised mines, and several mines were broken by air cannons, fortunately they bombarded the ground with air cannons, this thing could not ignite the gunpowder twist of the mines, otherwise they would have suffered one step earlier, and they would all have been killed by themselves.
No one here is a fool, they quickly figured out the truth, this Yong'en Hall is an all-wood building, fire prevention is its top priority, how can there be no fire emergency kit there, it is not surprising to find a smoke mask, but this earthen mine is unlikely to be ready-made, then there is only one explanation, it is the fish-headed man Lao San made his own.
Zhao Xuchen reminded solemnly: "We are facing a very cunning mutant, everyone must be cautious, and we must not fall into his way." ”
"Awesome! Admire! A stranger's voice suddenly sounded from not far away, and he even applauded, "I wanted you to die a little neatly, so I ordered them to plant the mines in advance and then ignite them together, but you inadvertently took advantage of this loophole, resulting in me not being able to ignite any of them, and there are still smart people in the human army." ”
Zhao Xuchen followed the prestige, but what he saw was a monster with a strange fish head, covering his mouth with a wet towel, its tail was all fish tails, looming behind him, and beside it, there was a thick old root of a dead tree, and its body seemed to have been sawed off by an electric button.
"Damn, you give Lao Tzu to death!" One of the warriors reacted first and immediately opened fire, but all of his bullets hit the old roots, and the fish-headed man hid very unjustly.
At this time, more people shot at the same time, but at this time, even the old roots hid back into the ground, and all their bullets missed.
Zhao Xuchen shouted, "Stop shooting." He knew that since the other party dared to show up, he was not afraid of their guns.
"Alas, life is bitter!" The fish-man reappeared, "You say I'm provoking someone, hiding in such a poor country and being hunted down." ”
"Hmph, you're going back to the human city, and no one will hunt you down." Zhao Xuchen said coldly, "What we want to kill are only those beasts that have lost their humanity." ”
"It's these dehumanized beasts in your mouth who help me find food, clean my house, and massage me every day, they just don't want to be your kind anymore, but it doesn't mean that their lives are worthless."
"Jokes, can being your servant show their worth?"
"That's right!" The fish-man said as a matter of course, "There is no cleanliness in your human society, they are not different in nature, and cleaners don't fight, they do." ”
"Team leader, what are you talking about with him, I'll kill him." One of the warriors said impatiently, drawing his long knife and rushing over.
Zhao Xuchen was startled, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't go over, be careful of traps!" ”
"Hey, what kind of trap is there, the good plan I finally came up with was seen through by you, otherwise I wouldn't have shown up." "I just wanted to see which guy was so wise to dig up all the mines I've worked so hard to make." ”
Let's say that the soldier did not listen to Zhao Xuchen's persuasion, and when he was halfway through the road, his body suddenly became half shorter, and both legs sank into the ground, and then he heard a desperate shout: "Team leader, save me." ”
He screamed and tried to get up from the ground, crawling and crawling, and suddenly blood spurted from his mouth, and he finally crawled out, but it was empty from the waist down, and the lower half was completely severed.
The rest of the soldiers immediately wanted to go to the rescue, but were stopped by Zhao Xuchen: "Stop!" Don't go over, we can't save him. ”
A soldier couldn't help but shed tears and whimpered: "Che Xiaoxu, you can go in peace, we will avenge you." ”
"Oops, tsk, poor thing, there are no dead bodies." The fish-man looked compassionate, but before anyone else could react, he immediately said, "It's good to make food, my children love to eat, let's use the residual heat." ”
