Chapter 64: Attrition and Struggle
Chapter 64: Attrition and Struggle
The morning sun rises, the warm sunlight sprinkles on the abandoned city covered with plants in Yijing, revealing a refreshing and clean smell, there is no industrial exhaust fume, there is no noise of human voices, the breeze blows, the slightly cool dew on the branches and leaves falls, hits the ground, and falls into eight petals.
A group of small ants who went out to hunt dragged a worm shell, carefully bypassed the water droplets, and continued to move forward, but unfortunately within a few meters, a discolored lizard stuck out its tongue and got into its mouth.
The brief silence only made the atmosphere around the bunker even heavier, and Yutai carefully put away the suicide notes of the three fallen and put them in his pocket.
Li Xinlan sighed, handed out food and sweet spring elixir, Pang Meiqin walked to Tang Zheng's side and asked about his physical condition.
"I'm fine, Lantai, let's call Qin Yan and them huilai, I lost two sub-forts, and the defense system Yijing doesn't work."
"Okay." Yutai nodded, now the only way left is to stick to the mother fort, and then evacuate at the last moment, but so many tired wounded are also a headache, "We must find a way." ”
A group of people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that they could evacuate, and at this time, they would only feel safe if they stayed with the whole team.
"They're heroes, but I can't give them a heroic funeral."
Qin Yan came up with the team members, and saw that Tantai was full of grief, sorting out the clothes for the three war dead, and washing off the stains on their faces with clean water.
"What's wrong?" Lu Fan didn't know why, so he asked.
"Okay, it's too timely." Yu Manli was happy in her heart, but she had a sad expression on her face and explained in a low voice, but this was deliberately heard by everyone.
Affected by the atmosphere, the injured survivors were entangled in their hearts, and then they looked at the corpse of the suicide warrior next to them, rather than dying worthlessly, it was better to contribute to the team.
"Let's be cremated, or I'll be eaten by bugs." Bai Guo is a natural fool and sincerely thinks about the deceased, and this sentence also made the survivors make up their final minds, and everyone's eyes became resolute.
"Tantai, give me the ring, let me come next time." Sha Ou woke up, leaned against the wall, and showed a smile to the deputy commander, "There is no one at home, so there is no need for last words." ”
The German stewardess squatted next to Li Du and took care of him, causing several soldiers to make fun of their comrades, while the other shrank in the corner, still shivering.
"Don't be discouraged, we'll live and leave this game!" Qin Yan cheered everyone up, probably because everyone made a decision in their hearts, the atmosphere of panic was reduced, and morale was boosted.
This is what Yutai wants, Yu Mature is worthy of being a master of figuring out people's hearts, and the explanation is just right, once again rendering the atmosphere and infecting everyone.
"I'm really still very despicable, at the beginning, I gave up the newcomers, I just wanted to make the most of them, if it was Tang Zheng, I am afraid that at the last moment, I would think like this, or I wouldn't think like this at all." Tantai looked at Tang Zheng, the head of the regiment frowned, looking at the rising sun in the blue sky, his expression was extremely lonely, and he seemed to blame himself for his incompetence.
Tang Zheng was really blaming himself, he knew that Tantai was doing the right thing, this kind of high-intensity battle, the newcomers would definitely not be able to survive, the responsibility of the regiment commander was to maximize the use of team resources, give full play to everyone's value, and then protect the most core and easiest survivors to survive until the end of the game, but he hesitated because of these kind soldiers.
"No wonder Win Shang Wu said that I can't be a hero, and I am not suitable for this cruel survival game!" A self-deprecating smile overflowed at the corner of Tang Zheng's mouth, his heart was too soft. …,
"Because of your kindness, we have gathered around you, if you are cold-blooded and ruthless, who will dare to trust you? Even if we don't leave, we will have the mind to protect ourselves. Qin Yan undoubtedly knows Tang Zheng very well, and the team can come to this day thanks to him, otherwise they can only be wary of each other and fight separately, such as Zhuo Lie's team, such as Landeck's team, once they encounter a desperate situation, those hidden dangers will be infinitely magnified and become a factor leading to the annihilation of the group.
"Tang Zheng is okay, right? Showing such an expression at this time is not what the regiment commander should do! Even Yu Manli and Ruan Feifei are also being subtly influenced by him, they used to want to improve their status in the team, protect themselves, and earn benefits, but now, it has also become how to make Tang Zheng think more about the team, after all, in addition to the fact that he is a bad person, he is definitely a competent leader.
"He's been ruthless a lot lately, it's just that the three newcomers who volunteered to die touched his delicate nerves, and you should tell him that the number of such newcomers is very small." Ruan Feifei whispered, a little despised Tang Zheng, she likes strong men, but for some reason, looking at the lonely figure sitting by the wall, she was a little uncomfortable.
"That's also his insistence, to be honest, I don't want to follow a regiment leader with no bottom line."
As soon as Yu Manli's words were finished, the portal appeared again, and in just three seconds, a full fifty-five doors appeared around the bunker, the nearest one was only sixteen meters away, and a large number of self-detonating flying insects pounced and crashed into the mother fort.
Shizuka raised the first bow of Tokaido, and immediately shot at the flying insects, and suddenly there was a burst of explosions, and the air wave rushed up with broken corpses and slime, and the female staff was explained by Tang Zheng that she wanted to kill this monster as soon as possible.
The conquerors also fired one after another, but they were able to block them, and did not let them crash into the bunkers, but the yak beetles on the ground had no choice, densely packed, full of thousands, overwhelming, because the body rubbed shoulders one after another, making a kind of swishing sound, coupled with the chewing sound of the mouthparts, it was terrifying, even if the Beetle chariot covered the ground with artillery fire, there was no way to clear it, there were too many portals, and nearly a thousand insects were put into the battlefield every second, although the single threat was not large, and the number of danshi was too much.
"Ruan Feifei, you first enlarge the move, then Xinlan, and then Lu Fan." Tantai immediately made a decision, "The others follow me to gather the fire portal." ”
Ruan Feifei didn't shirk, the lightning on her fingertips roared, and when she was about to blast out, she was stopped by Tang Zheng.
"I'll do it!" As Tang Zheng released the fifth ability of the Berserk Queen, at a height of one thousand meters, the air vibrated like ripples like sea water, followed by a huge piece of steel, like a steel barrier covering the sky, covering the surrounding range of five hundred meters, the whole body was covered with metallic color, flowing with mechanical texture, full of texture.
In the roar of machinery, the lines opened and closed, the sky opened, and ten huge Kirov standing boats suddenly descended, then turned around, spread out in a circle, and began to carpet bombard the ground.
Boom, boom, the bomb nest opened, and one after another large bombshells tore through the air, falling with the sound of breaking wind and smashing to the ground.
Boom, boom, the sound of continuous explosions sounded one after another, and the corpses of the insects that were shattered under the impact air waves, like a tsunami, directly lifted up to a height of more than seven or eight meters, and flooded the bunker at once.
Fortunately, this belongs to Tang Zheng's ability, and the bomb's damage to him has been reduced, otherwise the bunker will also be affected.
In just twenty seconds, most of the insects on the ground were swept away, and only more than a thousand around the bunker remained, which Tang Zheng didn't dare to throw here for fear of the bomb hurting the bunker.
The bugs were still rushing out desperately, but as soon as they escaped the portal, they were served by the falling bombs and blasted to pieces. …,
Magnetic, magnetic, the missiles on the pylons locked onto the portal and shot out, leaving white tails in the sky.
The ten portals that had been bombarded with all their might cracked, crumbling, and after twenty seconds, collapsed.
Before the battle was over, with the sound of machinery, the central position of the steel firmament was combined and convexed, forming a huge railgun, a full fifty meters long, like a spear that broke through the sky, aiming at the densest position of the portal.
A large amount of energy began to condense, and there were constantly electric arcs crackling and scattering out, and then booming, bursting down, impacting the ground.
The dirt was directly overturned, and the thick blue-white plasma slice through the ground like a saber, and all the bugs and portals that came into contact were vaporized, leaving nothing behind.
The survivors could barely open their eyes, but then they were all stunned when they looked at the destructive effect caused by the steel firmament, because in an instant, the attack of the insects was suppressed, which Tang Zheng did by himself!
"Targeted shelling!" With Tang Zheng's order, twenty small cannon muzzles appeared on the edge of the steel firmament, locked the portal, and began to bombard.
The survivors hid in the bunkers, and as the first bugs were eliminated, they could finally watch the battle in peace, and the giant Kirov hovered in the air, dropping bombs and missiles continuously, and twenty-one railguns kept bombarding and washing the ground, completely ravaging the suburbs, and with the beams of light, there was nothing.
The Overlord Beetle was completely crispy under the strafing of bombshells and beams, and it was torn to pieces before it could hold on for three seconds.
It took a full five minutes for the shelling to end, and when the steel sky fluctuated and disappeared from the sky, and the dust on the ground settled, even the conquerors who were usually calm and calm were frightened by Tang Zheng's results, this was the first time they had seen Tang Zheng's fifth ability exert its might with their own eyes.
Fifty-five portals were all blown up, and the ground was completely cut off to nearly two meters thick.
"It's too sharp, this blow is terrifying." Yu Manli was amazed, and then she was envious in her heart, this is just one of Tang Zheng's abilities, and she can completely blow them up.
The other newcomers also looked at Tang Zheng with envy, and then they were shocked, because Tang Zheng was leaning against the wall with a pale face, and his chest was red, which was the blood he spit out.
"Uncle?" Lu Fan was startled and hurriedly ran over, and the others didn't dare to slack off, their faces were full of concern.
"Xueqi, come and treat." Li Xinlan called out to Gu Xueqi, with Tang Zheng's state, there was no way to summon daylilies.
Seeing that Tang Zheng was weak and speechless, the optimism of the newcomers who originally thought that they could survive was suddenly hit and very lost.
Gu Xueqi sprayed the little phoenix with both hands, treating Tang Zheng's cracked wounds.
"You, how many more times can you use that ability?" A college student couldn't hold back and asked.
"Twice." Tang Zheng waved his hand and stopped Gu Xueqi, "It's useless, don't waste your life energy, my injury won't heal for a while." ”
"I've choked enough to see it once, don't you want to die?" Pang Meiqin was very distressed, Qin Yan and Li Xinlan also frowned, if it continued like this, Tang Zheng would have to die of exhaustion.
The newcomers looked at Tang Zheng's weak body and understood how much burden he had beared, and they were all a little moved.
"Fanfan, strengthen the bunker." Yutai was helpless, so he only had a little more time to rest.
The survivors all felt that every second was a painful torment, and in order to dispel this panic, Yutai launched an activity to write a suicide note.
"Uncle won't die, what are you scribbling?" Lu Fan took the note from Tang Zheng's hand, tore it up and threw it away, while Li Xinlan and Qin Yan watched this scene silently, swearing that they would never let Tang Zheng be in danger. ..., "I'm writing about whether the plan is good or not." Tang Zheng glanced at Lu Fan and saw her broken fireflies, her thin shoulders exposed, dirty.
"Nasty." Lu Fan was shy, punched Tang Zheng's stomach, and then pulled his clothes to block his shoulder.
"How did I forget this!" Tang Zheng slapped his head and took out all the captured protective clothing, the German team was very valuable, almost all of them were S-level protective clothing, and he threw them to the worm heart.
Tang Zheng's left hand, which had been transformed from a worm heart, squirmed, forming a thin line of mucus that covered his protective clothes, and then began to digest and devour.
After eating so much S-level equipment, the worm heart finally began to evolve and became an A+ grade, Tang Zheng immediately felt that his fingers were much more flexible, and he suddenly had a possibility, the worm heart not only eats equipment, but also devours monsters.
"I'll catch a boss-level bug and give it a try."
More than twenty minutes later, sixty portals appeared as scheduled, spitting out insects, this time the number of doors did not increase, and a large number of insects began to appear in Danshi, this time Tang Zheng opened the steel sky again, and the battle only lasted five minutes, and there were no casualties, which made the newcomers ignite Xiwang again.
The worm heart is very picky and does not eat dead corpses, which makes Tang Zheng's plan fail.
The survivors eat to replenish their physical strength, and it's not over yet, the portal comes, this time there are no spitting bugs, but Danshi's faces are ugly, because they are all insect people with strong attack power.
"Don't open the ability, it's a waste." Pang Meiqin persuaded Tang Zheng, of course the latter understood that this round could only resist hard.
Dozens of glitter bugmen flew into the air and immediately blew themselves up, exploding into clusters of flashes, but everyone had gained experience, and all bowed their heads, and several conquerors even put on goggles.
With the flash of light, dozens of teleporting insects suddenly attacked, entered the mother fort, and unfolded their arm knives to kill the survivors.
"Qin Yan, Baiguo, Shizuka, Liangmao, Manli, it's up to you." Yutai roared, pulled out the Juyi character Zezong, and slashed together with a pounced insect man.
Xu Biyun and Li Xinlan both stood in front of Tang Zheng, because the bunker was not very large, so it was a little crowded, so the newcomers were unlucky.
Although Sha Ou and Ai Yixin were seriously injured and couldn't move, Danshi still had a shield to carry, but the newcomers were only flesh and blood, and half of their heads were cut off by the wormman's arm knife in a certain face, and blood was sprinkled everywhere.
A wormman's mouthparts gathered energy, and it was about to spray a beam of light, and the frightened stewardess's face changed greatly, and a soldier pounced on it with a military thorn, and was about to die with it, but Bai Guo took the lead and cut off its head with the dragon's blade.
Yu Manli punched one by one, knocking the insect people out of the mother fort, Xu Liangmao turned into an orc, and his combat power soared, Shizuka was a little worse, and she could only protect herself.
"Get out, don't be here." Tang Zheng roared and shot towards the sky, some insects with big stomachs flew over, and if they were blown up, they would be burned into a ball of fireball, these monsters were obviously self-exploding, if they exploded in the bunker, they would definitely die.
Tang Zheng held Sha Ou in one hand and Ai Yixin in the other, jumped from the gap in the bunker, Lu Fan followed, and then released his ability to form a sand castle and protected Tang Zheng inside.
Others also jumped off one after another, this time the injured were dangerous, and the conqueror couldn't take care of so many people, and Ruan Feifei Yu Manli would never save others like a woman, even Xu Liangmao and Xu Biyun couldn't do anything, so another newcomer died.
A certain insect man who was obviously a small boss level flipped over his shoulder, and the muzzle of a black hole appeared, followed by two beams of light.
A soldier dragged two wounded and immobile comrades with his left and right hands, and before he could jump off the gap in the bunker, he was hit, and most of the bodies of the three people were immediately vaporized, and the rest were also blown away, and the pieces of flesh were splashed indiscriminately. ..., the high platoon commander dragged a soldier to jump, seeing this scene, his eyes were red, at this time, in addition to strength, it was more luck, the newcomer was targeted by insects, and there was basically no life or death.
Zuo Yi was still fighting fiercely, he was hit, his chest was blurred with flesh and blood, if it weren't for the strength of the protective clothing, he would have to hang it this time, Shen Qingshuang just jumped to the ground, and before he could adjust his posture, he was targeted by two insect people, and he was stabbed twice in the back, but fortunately, Lu Fan made up the gun in time and saved his life.
"Come here, defend." Lu Fan and Li Xinlan tried their best to clear a safe area for the newcomers to hide.
This wave is not a sea of worms, Danshi is more dangerous, the individual's ability to break is absolutely off the table, and the consumption of everyone is very large, even if the conqueror wants to help the newcomer, he is powerless.
Wang Bo dared to fight, but he didn't have any equipment, and he couldn't even stop a worm.
Li Du, who had a broken arm, also finished his road to survival, and a worm man flew down, directly opening the opener and spitting out a large amount of acid, the soldier turned around and pushed a flight attendant, but he was poured through.
The GI's body was immediately corroded, his clothes were torn, and white smoke rose from it.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Li Du apologized for his recklessness, and was mended by the insect man and cut off his head.
"Don't!" The stewardess shouted, blood poured on her face, and the feeling of dampness and heat made her understand that there were good people in the porcelain country.
