Soon the two arrived at the lookout post of the stronghold. The armed servants here had already entered a state of alert. Hu Ge looked in the direction pointed by the apprentice and saw that on the dark ridge line, several lonely figures were moving, about one thousand meters away from here.
From a distance, they did look like a clerk, but they seemed to have just fought a fierce battle. The robe and armor on their bodies were incomplete, and even the remaining flesh and blood were hanging. However, the helmets were basically complete, and the weapons were dragged to the ground by them, like a defeated general.
"Which unit is this? Did they not send a request?"
"No, the identity we sent was not responding."
"Strange thing... Could it be that I retreated all the way from other war zones to here?"
"Try sending another communication request?"
Toping immediately opened his portable communicator and issued a communication command, but immediately he found something wrong.
"Their communication devices are not turned on at all."
"Is it damaged?"
"I'm not sure...well, wait, what's the sound in the channel."
Toping adjusted the communicator's listening channel with doubts, and soon a large number of incomprehensible nonsense appeared intermittently in a burst of static noise.
However, as the sound gradually merged into vague words, a strange sense of fear appeared in the minds of the two mechanical priests.
At this time, the strange team had already reached less than 500 meters. After looking at each other, they both saw the horror in each other's eyes.
"Stop them!"
When the weapons and servants of the stronghold were all activated, the Alpha Apostle Army walking in the front raised his head high, lifted up his "hood", revealing the metallic and alopecia areata below, and baring a jagged fang.
At the same time, the camp wall began to flash, lasers and small shells flew towards the target point, followed by sparks generated in the explosion, illuminating the ridges and rocks in the night.
But the dense bullets did not knock down the enemy, but only stripped them of their disguise - the flesh of the dead apologists, revealing their terrible and real shapes, shiny metal skulls and skeleton-like bodies, as well as huge claws and weird metal bone spurs, as if their only purpose was to cross the gap of time and convey the message of death to all races.
"What the hell is this..."
Hu Ge widened his eyes and observed the weird creatures that began to run in fire as much as possible. Their metalized bodies did not seem special in the casting world, but the flexibility was by no means comparable to that of robots, and their actions were more similar to wild beasts.
"Is it a test subject for which sage is out of control?"
"No...I don't feel like... Do you remember that rumor? There seems to be an ancient ruin in the underground of Jiaoer City..."
At this time, Hugo discovered something and opened his portable contemplator.
The screen flashed, showing a grid with a moving icon, Hugo looked down and took a breath of air conditioning.
"Niubuyi discovered something, there were eight energy sources, six hundred meters away on the west side..."
The screen then flashed and the icon was displayed.
"There are eight more, also at six hundred meters, approaching from the southeast, and they are luring us to disperse the fire, I think...yes, here, the third group of invaders is six hundred meters north."
Toping had already taken out his weapon, a plasma gun.
"So, we were surrounded."
"Stop holding a gun! Send an emergency signal!"
At this time, the heavy fighter servants also began to defend with plasma firepower and armor-piercing missiles, knocking down these skeleton ghosts, but most monsters were very fast and the hit rate of the servants was very low.
Just as the two of them rushed to send a distress signal, a mechanical undead had unknowingly climbed up the wall where they were.
"careful!"
Amid Toping's scream, Hu Ge turned around to fight in time. He first felt the creature's claws cut a hole in his cheek, and then shot through its shell with the hot melt pistol in his hand.
Even though his chest was pierced through the wall, the thing was howling with a harsh rattle, raising blood-stained claws and scratching randomly in the air.
When he turned to look at the camp, he found that a monster had broken through the defense and ran in. A broken apprentice lay next to the tent, a metal monster lay on the body, scooped up a large piece of flesh and blood with his claws, held it high, and then sent it to the lips full of metal teeth. However, as it chewed, the minced meat just dripped along its metal ribs.
"Strange... They are obviously mechanical, why do they have this kind of eating behavior?"
At this time, the firefighting in the camp reached its most intense moment. Toping opened fire at a monster who was tearing the armed servant with his claws, and shouted:
"Don't do your research! Save your life first!"
At this moment, a unique roar sounded from the sky, and then two storm claws flew over quickly, and missiles cut out from the short wings of the fighter, blowing over or completely destroying the mechanical monsters. At the same time, the heavy bombs under the head of the storm claw also continued to fire, destroying the bodies of the monsters. Their solid gold shell could not withstand such fierce firepower.
As the Storm Claws circled and attacked, two thunder eagles also roared, and warriors wearing white power armor jumped down from it, and immediately quickly eliminated these twisted enemies with power swords and chain saws in the sound of battle cry.
"This is..."
The tenth commander of the White Temple, Sheroè, jumped off the Thunder Eagle, and a mechanized skeleton-like creature rushed towards him, and the stained red robe flew up and down. The company commander thought it was a crazy rapporter at first, but soon he caught a glimpse of the alien face under the broken hood.
"Space Necromancer?"
The alien rushed towards Sheroe, and from its open mouth, an incomprehensible scream of static electricity and alien language came.
Sheroe fired two shots in plasma, smashing the screaming metal monster into large pieces, then turned his power sword smoothly, and with a series of bursts, he cleanly cut off the two limbs of the other monster trying to attack. The moment the opponent fell, he slashed its head in half with a backhand sword.
The battle ended soon, and Sheroes came to the two technical priests who were somewhat frightened, without any nonsense, and immediately asked:
“Where did they come from.”
"Back...Sir, we don't know either, we just know that these monsters are wearing the apology army... and are close to the stronghold, but in the direction they come... it is likely to be some mountain caves."
Sheroè frowned and turned around to look at the battlefield. The soldiers were collecting the corpses of the twisted monsters.
"I understand. The defense of your stronghold has been defeated, so let's give up first. We will take you back to the base camp of the war zone. You will list the detailed battle reports."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the landing Thunder Eagle. The two technical priests looked at each other. They felt what luck was for the first time, and then sighed in unison:
Chapter completed!
