Chapter 165: Behemoth
After these two days of getting along, he has figured out Fang Ming's temper, this is a very decent and responsible guy, and even seems a little dull because of this.
With Fang Ming's cultivation as combat power, it is estimated that he has played the role of captain in various tasks, so that his serious and responsible attitude has been deeply rooted in his bone marrow.
If he didn't understand Fang Ming, Su An would even suspect that the other party was also deliberately arranged by his side.
More than two hundred soldiers, the moment they entered the ruins, immediately showed the combat qualities of a senior transcendent.
Under the command of Zhu Feng and a tenth-level soldier, the team was divided into several parts to perform their duties, the first pathfinder team, the left and right flank guards, and the scouts who climbed to the position of the giant tree branches and were responsible for lookout and vigilance.
Su An saw that the backpacks of the Pathfinder and Scout had been replaced so that they could move more quickly, and the changed backpacks were borne by the people of lower rank, temporarily organized as baggage soldiers and support teams.
The medical supplies of the team were all pooled and a medical corps was formed.
The entire team is like a well-oiled and efficient machine, searching and advancing in battle formation in an orderly manner.
"Captain Zhu is quite good at commanding." Su An, who was walking in the center of the team, was moved.
Zhu Feng has already broken through the realm, and now he is a ninth-level soldier, like Fang Ming, he has accumulated enough because of the stimulation, so he has stepped into a new world.
Fang Ming's stimulation came from the fact that his original team was broken up, and Zhu Feng was sneered at too much by Jiang Bai.
"Captain Zhu was originally an instructor at a military base." Fang Ming gave the information he knew. He has a very good temper with Zhu Feng and is already very familiar with each other.
"I see." Su An said yes.
When I first heard Jiang Bai say that Zhu Feng was his teacher, Su An thought it was an ordinary school, but after thinking about it, he should understand that how could the teachers and students of an ordinary school be soldiers, and they had to run for two hours to run a circle on the playground?
"Captain, do you feel that there is something special about our team? Or rather, a little weird? Su An asked Fang Ming.
The composition of the soldiers in the team is very simple, some are from Zhongshan and some are from Yan, but they cooperate quite tacitly. What is even more rare is that after the election of a temporary commander, the ban was immediately ordered.
In the past few days of fighting, there has not been a single unruly guy, like Xu Rong, who is stealing and playing tricks in the fight, and only cares about running away when the situation is not good, but not a single one has appeared.
This is a temporary team of more than 200 people, and it should be a mixture, after all, there are many old oilers among the senior soldiers.
Listening to Su An's reason, Fang Ming shook his head: "I don't think that the battle has been going smoothly in the past few days, and there are still a few generals to protect it, so there is no need to cheat and play tricks."
"If the battle is not good, this situation is likely to occur, we have to be more careful, or that sentence, you two have to follow me."
Su An nodded, feeling that what Fang Ming said was reasonable, so he didn't say anything more.
The team advanced in an orderly and silent manner, for a small half a day, they did not encounter any resistance, not to mention the cold spear of the demon monk, and even the shadow of the other party was not seen.
Half a day later, the team discovered all sorts of noteworthy features.
First of all, the giant tree, the scout found out that the giant tree is really the residence of the ancient demon monks, many giant trees have been hollowed out partially, and the space inside can often reach dozens of square meters.
Unlike today's human cities, these dwellings are basically unpartitioned, and have not been created into rooms, so they appear empty and can be seen at a glance.
The living utensils are very simple, or natural, the tables, chairs, cups and plates are all wooden, and there is no paint, and the teapot stove is simple in shape, but the craftsmanship is frighteningly high, the technical content is good, but it is not like a mechanical manufacturing.
There are very few objects in the residence, there are not many things worth noting, and there is no one of value, and the only thing that attracts the attention of the team is the broken formation that faintly exists in the residence.
After a simple study, Zhu Feng came to the conclusion that the formation was fused with the giant tree, and most of them were used to gather the Force.
The giant tree as a whole has been transformed into a large array, which can absorb the force of heaven and earth, or it can be integrated into the large array of the entire ruins, introducing the power of the universe, and the small formation in the giant tree can concentrate the force attracted by the giant tree into the central area of the residence for the monks to cultivate.
Because I didn't encounter a complete formation, it is unknown how much power the formation actually has, but it must be very large.
Half a day later, the team had already moved dozens of kilometers smaller.
Everyone is a soldier above level 6, although they need to be vigilant, but they are still quite fast, as the exploration area deepens, everyone finds more and more dwellings, not only giant trees, but also large and small mountains are also distributed dwellings, or caves.
The same simple furnishings, the same nothing of value found.
At dusk, the team stopped to prepare for camp, not intending to travel at night. Jiang Bai's reminder was still in his ears, although he had not suffered any accidental injuries that day, everyone did not dare to be careless.
"It seems that the demon clan has searched for it, but everything that is somewhat useful should have been taken by them." Zhu Feng sighed.
"Shouldn't we speed things up a bit? The ruins are vast, with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, and we have only traveled less than fifty kilometers today, which is too slow. ”
Someone suggested, "At least we have to catch up with the demon clan first, otherwise we won't get anything, and the treasures in the ruins will give them a head start." ”
After a day of exploration, the team had discovered the pattern, and the deeper they went into the ruins, the more traces of the activities of the ancient demon monks became.
Buildings such as the "Library", "Arsenal" and "Research Institute" are said to be located in the high mountains in the heartland.
"No, we didn't encounter any anomalies today, probably because we didn't go deep enough, and we only entered the 'main city' in the 'suburbs'.
"Once you go deep into the 'main city', there will be more traces of demon clan activities, and all kinds of abnormalities will follow, so you must be cautious."
Fang Ming remembered Jiang Bai's advice: Not finding an abnormality does not mean that there is no abnormality.
In the end, the team decided to continue to explore at today's speed tomorrow, and decide whether to speed up the follow-up according to the situation, in short, safety first, if there is a treasure, you have to have a life, and you have to be able to get it back.
Late at night, Su An was meditating and cultivating, when he suddenly heard Fang Ming's voice: "There is a situation!" ”
When he opened his eyes, Su An found that Zheng Nanzhi, who was sitting cross-legged across from him, had already gotten up, and Fang Ming was jumping down from the branch:
"The people on duty on the periphery noticed that someone was approaching, and immediately prepared for battle!"
Under the leadership of Fang Ming, Su An and Zheng Nanzhi climbed the high branch of the giant tree and found a position with a relatively wide field of vision.
Level 5 sniper rifle!
Su An, who was holding the fourth-level "Eagle Strike", immediately heard the level of the Force firearm.
The location of the gunfire was not too far from the giant tree where he was, which meant that it was fired by his own people, and the other party should be a ninth-level or tenth-level powerhouse on night duty.
This gunshot is like a signal, the gunfire falls, and the quiet night is suddenly thrown into the oil pot, and the noise is boiling in an instant!
Su An first felt the tremor of the giant tree, as if a slight earthquake had occurred, and again and again, as if thousands of troops were running.
At the same time, strange and ferocious roars thundered, rising and falling one wave after another, as if they had stabbed a beast's den.
Suan felt the brutality and anger in the roar, but couldn't tell what animal it was, or if he had never heard of it.
Gunfire erupted in the outskirts of the camp, flares were raised, and flames from Force grenade explosions emerged.
Even though they were hundreds of meters away, because the position was high enough, Su An still caught the attacker for the first time.
He gasped.
It was indeed not an animal he was familiar with, no animal had such a large size, and could run and jump between the branches of giant trees, jumping dozens of meters.
The black shadows were like wolves and tigers, but they had the size of more than ten times that of tigers and wolves, and under the lush hairs of various colors, Su An could see the bulging muscles from afar!
"What is this? And so so much! "Calm and wooden, like Fang Ming, he can't help but burst into foul language at this moment.
There are giant beasts attacking in all directions, some running and jumping like apes, some landing on all fours like cheetahs, and some flying with wings on their backs, and the specific number is not clear for a while.
But to be sure, that's definitely more than the team's soldiers!
Fang Ming and Zheng Nanzhi shot one after another, and Su An was also not idle.
Set up the eagle strike and he tried to lock on to the target for the first time, but after looking for a long time, he found that he had no confidence in hitting the target at all, the opponent's speed was too fast, even though he was large but he walked like flying, and there was a huge tree branch and leaf shelter, it was extremely troublesome to lock.
This kind of feeling, Su An can only have when facing soldiers of level eight and above!
But in the blink of an eye, the giant beast that rushed to the front had already rushed to the outer guard position, Su An could see clearly through the scope, a black shadow like a goshawk swooped down, ignoring the Force bullet on the wings, and pounced on a sixth-level soldier with the price of blood!
When the soldier was pierced through his body by the claws, and flew upside down from the branches, the claws of the goshawk brought out his bloody intestines!
Su An's eyes lit up, and the eagle strike suddenly roared!
The fourth-level Force Bullet flew out, taking advantage of the opportunity for the goshawk to pounce on the sixth-level soldier, it accurately hit its chest, and a bloody light rushed out!
The goshawk froze its wings with all its might, and when its feathers flew, it opened its mouth and let out an unbearable mournful sound, and after a few struggles, it fell weakly to the ground.
"Where did these behemoths come from, and why did the organization attack us premeditated?" As Su An pulled the bolt, this question popped up in his mind.
Behemoths are of different breeds, and they can act together in an organized manner, and the two sides did not meet each other during the day, and the team did not find them, but they chose to take the initiative in the dead of night, which was obviously premeditated.
