Chapter 69: The Witch Enters the Battlefield
Irini smiled and stared at the human stronghold on the Red Leaf Mountain in front of her, reaching out and starting to mobilize the large number of demons under her command.
Her slender tongue reached into the air, as if licking and analyzing every piece of information, as if she was deliberately showing off her perfect body.
Her men are hiding in the dark curtain of erosion, and they are supposed to be preparing to completely surround the Red Leaf Mountain, under the cover of the nightmare curtain, and in conjunction with the duststorm landscape of the erosion zone, the demon began to build a teleportation platform, intending to project itself directly into the center of the human position.
"Demarcate the direction of demonic activity." Second Lieutenant Moriya ordered with a communicator.
Members of the artillery company fire tracer rounds into the air, slightly illuminating the dimly lit world of erosion, making it easier for other soldiers to locate and track down demons.
They are equipped with advanced firepower in their hands, their individual quality is very strong, and they also have the "Sky Spear" heavy artillery to suppress the formation. Edith alone led an army to annihilate millions of demons in the Eastern Kingdom, and these heroic deeds inspired them to continue fighting.
"Demons could attack at any moment." Zhang Su stepped back, "Let's also prepare for battle." ”
Second Lieutenant Moriya glanced at Zhang Su, he really wished he could be as calm as Zhang Su.
The soldiers remembered the oath they had made when they enlisted: "To defend humanity, against the demon legions, to resolutely resist the enemy." ”
The oath is short and noble, but the fear is still deep-rooted. Demons haunted the surroundings like a nightmare.
Military weapons from artillery positions were aimed at them, constant shelling, the firing of energy weapons lit up the sky, and the fire of live heavy artillery was deafening.
This was the last rest before the battle, and some soldiers leaned their heads against the plastic steel forts of the outposts and sat on the barricades or design platforms of the outposts to save some energy.
Their spiritual reserves had been depleted during the march and construction, and they were very weak, and at this time they were surrounded by tenfold demons.
Second Lieutenant Moriya ordered everyone to rest.
While he knew that people might feel deeper fear in their dreams, many people might never have the chance to sleep again if they didn't fall asleep.
They fell asleep to the sound of artillery fire, and some of the human-reinforced soldiers relied on brain chips to put themselves to sleep.
"Aren't you resting?" Zhang Su asked.
"I don't have to rest." Second Lieutenant Moriya's orderly sent the needle.
“…… It's really hard. Zhang Su observed those super-grade mental stimulating drugs.
"......'Human Defense Program' and 'Earth Defense Force' are big terms, too big. We creeps just don't want demons to crawl into our homes. Second Lieutenant Moriya said.
Zhang Su went back to his barracks to rest.
Listening to Second Lieutenant Moriya's words, he thought of Anxinin and Miss Hasuki.
It seemed far away.
But he had to win the battle and complete the investigation outside the wall, otherwise the wall of Dongzhou would collapse and the people around him would be slaughtered again.
And demons will pour out of this opening.
"This is a bulletproof vest for you." In her spare time, Priscilla built a reinforced vest and entered the barracks to hand it over to Zhang Su.
"Thanks, how do you know what size I'm wearing." Zhang Su put away his vest.
"I don't know, it's designed by visual inspection. So just put it on and see if it fits. Priscilla laughed.
She only felt that Zhang Su was terrifyingly big, and it was difficult for the soldiers to reach this standard even if they practiced specially. Tall and easy to eat bullets, Priscilla didn't want Zhang Su to fall.
"Yes......" Zhang Su changed his coat and put on the vest, feeling the sense of security of its clinging to his muscles, "It's very strong, and now I'm not afraid of demon attacks." ”
Armor, luck, and toughened skin, Zhang Su can indeed resist bullets, as well as demonic claws.
"But be careful with the Phase Demons, their attacks can directly remove the flesh." Priscilla warned.
"Don't worry." Zhang Su draped his coat over his vest. Li Yixin now volunteered to stay behind the position to guard against the infiltration of the phase demon.
"You don't look scared at all." Priscilla observes.
"After all, I'm the mastermind of the fourth extramural investigation, and if even I give up hope, what will the others do?" Zhang Su said.
"You must have guessed that something big would happen in the future, which is why you organized this expedition. Me too, I also feel that if we don't take the initiative, sooner or later the demons will destroy us all, our morale is declining day by day, and the madness of the demons is endless. Priscilla said.
"This place, this gate of hell is too close to my home, that's all." Zhang Su said.
"Anxin-in?" Priscilla mused.
"Yes, if we survive, I very much hope that you will go to work in the Anxin Hospital." Zhang Su really needs a witch like Priscilla who is good at making equipment.
"Let's talk about it." Priscilla smiled casually and quickly left.
Zhang Su also slept for a while.
He woke up after a while. It is said that there are more demons around, and with the power of the demon portal, they can get close to the battlefield in an instant, so the human positions must be staggered in depth to avoid being destroyed by infiltration.
Some prayed, some couldn't hold back their tears.
Others sit and smoke, check their weapons, or write their names and hometowns on small slips of paper, then fold them up and put them in their pockets, hoping for a dead leaf to their roots.
The humans regained their physical strength, and the demons gathered their troops.
There are twice as many demons as before.
"It's pretty much as the intelligence describes, there are many enemies, and we have few soldiers. I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of demons. Second Lieutenant Moriya stood beside Zhang Su.
"The commander of the Seibei only transferred 600 people, which is too few." Zhang Su said.
"These 600 people, plus me, are the few people in the wall of Dongzhou who are willing to fight outside the wall. I...... I thought I would cry out of my mind, but no, it's not bad. Second Lieutenant Moriya said.
"No one is going to back down." Zhang Su looked. They're scared, they're panicking, but they're not going to take it easy, they're going to fight until death comes.
“…… Humans are so weak that they tremble at the sight of demons. But human beings are very strong, trembling and willing to go to war. "Second Lieutenant Moriya checked the railgun in his hand one last time, and the rate of fire was fast and powerful.
"Encouragement." Zhang Su nodded.
At the behest of Second Lieutenant Moriya, they deepened the trenches and deployed more mines. Power-Armored soldiers don their heavy armor and meditate on a lesson in mind protection.
Observers of artillery positions continued to regulate the firing elements. Heavy armored vehicles are deployed around Momiji Mountain, with their artillery and strong armor, for fire shelter missions.
The airfield was leveled, and the beacon radar was in full swing.
They are here to delay time, Zhang Su knows that many people will think so, and it is also true. They perform the final equipment checks, and the electromagnetic fence allows the vast majority of demons to be destroyed in the charge.
Hold on to help.
The enemy's flying demons have not yet taken shape, and once they regain contact with the wall of the East Continent and penetrate the information barrier in the erosion zone, they can expect the support of the air force and long-range missiles.
"Come on, my darlings." Irini didn't wait any longer, knowing that dragging it out would put humanity in an advantageous position.
She began to attack the humans on the mountain.
The first heavy cannon exploded!
Located on the top of the Red Leaf Mountain, the first set of rockets from the multi-shot rocket launcher exploded on the marching demon army with a shining flame tail, bursting out a series of flat ground thunder, and the demon's limbs were blown apart, screaming again and again!
This is the beginning of humanity's counterattack to regain its homeland!
And Zhang Su's gaze fell on Irini from beginning to end!
He knew that Elini was most closely related to victory and defeat, the demons were Mu Qiang's creatures, as long as Zhang Su found a way to attack her and defeat Irini in front of all the demons, the demons would loosen their positions and defeat themselves without a fight!
The war has begun.
