Chapter 40 Give me a relief
At the same time, Manuka's team was not going so smoothly at this time. Although the team's firepower was sufficient and the team members' individual tactical qualities were top-notch, they happened to encounter a necromorph that was attracted by some unknown factor.
Tide, the terrifying number is really extremely heavy compared to Manuka's ten-man team, completely covering the firepower and tactical advantages, just like the missile interception system in the world, for small batches of incoming missiles
Generally speaking, these interception systems can achieve double insurance of accuracy and efficiency.
But what if there are hundreds of rocket attacks? Not to mention that the interception system itself does not have that many missiles for interception. Even if it does, the accuracy and effectiveness of its interception will be greatly reduced. At this moment, Manuka
The team he led was also faced with such a situation. In the absence of heavy firepower, this number of zombies was obviously not something they could handle.
"Captain, there are too many of them! Let's retreat quickly!"
"Hurry and unlock the door behind us! We have been ambushed!"
"Captain our authority...ah! My shoulder, damn, these monsters are about to shoot bone spurs!"
Just like the method used by Ralph to trap Du Jin and the two, when Manuka's team entered a hall, the air valve they entered was locked, and it was not connected to the ship's security system.
There is no way for technicians to lift the blockade through the network level, unless they find an interface that can upload data. But in this situation surrounded by zombies, where will there be the opportunity and time for him to find such a rare interface?
?This kind of alloy door used for sealing and control is designed to prevent the intrusion of external equipment from the beginning.
What makes Manuka even worse is that there are some abnormal mutants among these corpses. Not only do they have a dark yellow body color, but they can also shoot bone spurs that can penetrate armor. This makes the team wearing light armor
A technician who could easily carry information equipment was immediately infected, and Manuka was not sure whether there was a source of infection on the bone spurs that caused the mutation. Although he had never encountered a case of living people turning into necromorphs,
Just because they haven't seen them before doesn't mean they haven't seen them before. In their experience, this is the first time they have fought against these zombies.
Even Manuka only learned from the battle reports of some frontline troops that some strange alien creatures had appeared in the border planet colonies. However, even his father McCas also believed that it was just those border planets.
The legion's excuse for asking for military expenses had not been taken into account, but now Manuka seemed to understand something when he looked at these monsters.
"Quick, Just, you lead a few people to break out to the side and divert their encirclement. There are too many of them. We don't have enough ammunition and troops. We must find a way to break out!"
Manuka has a clear understanding of the current situation. He will not be like those half-hearted commanders who only charge the troops without caring about the life and death of his soldiers. For him, these soldiers under him are training with him, and he can improve himself.
The brother who had entrusted his life to him couldn't do anything but leave himself and escape. At this moment, he just wanted to lead his team and leave alive.
Just then led three people to get up from the temporary bunkers. These so-called bunkers were the chairs provided for the patients, which also contained some alloy bed boards stained with blood. These things were inside the medical deck.
You can see them everywhere, and the way they are scattered on the ground can tell how many people were sent here at that time, and now these people may have become terrifying necromorphs, and they are probably mixed in this wave of necromorphs now.
In the tide.
These benches and alloy bed boards are not likely to directly block the waving upper limbs of the zombies. Their function is limited to providing a fulcrum for shooting. After all, there are still two electromagnetic machine guns in the team. Otherwise, the firepower of the rifles will not be sustainable.
, those necromorphs had already swarmed over and dismembered them. On the other hand, it was to block the flying bone spurs. Although Manuka didn't know what the dark yellow necromorphs that could shoot such bone spurs were called and what their abilities were.
.
However, this "sharp weapon" that can completely penetrate the light exoskeleton armor has brought a lot of trouble to the team. These temporary bunkers will also be penetrated, but the kinetic energy after the bone spurs penetrate will be much smaller, otherwise
Even heavy armor will be penetrated by continuous impacts.
The efficiency of the four men of Justard was indeed worthy of the title of personal guards. A crack was opened on the edge of the zombie wave, sharing the frontal impact. Just as Manuka was about to give the order to move along this crack.
When they were leaving, several scorpion-like necromorphs followed the ceiling at the bottom of the hall and came to the top of the four Justards who were still shooting.
"Justard! Take your people and get out of there! Watch out!"
As soon as he noticed these scorpion-shaped necromorphs, Manuka immediately asked Just and others to retreat, but they did not freeze in place. When they heard the warning in the Manuka communication channel, they did not
He raised his gun upward to check the situation, and instead rolled back to leave the area. However, the speed of the four people could not be exactly the same. The person at the front was obviously a step slower, and a scorpion-shaped corpse mutant came from the top.
It fell and instantly knocked down the soldier who was about to leave, and then its huge "tail spine" as thick as a thigh directly pierced the soldier's chest.
"Ah!! Captain, save me!"
Immediately, a heartbreaking sound was heard on the channel of everyone present, which made everyone present feel frightened. The three people not far away from him shot at the scorpion-shaped corpse mutant that jumped on him, and
The necromorph just took a few steps back in frustration, revealing the miserable condition of the team members under him. A blood hole appeared directly in the center of his heavy armor, and the end of the scorpion-shaped necromorph's tail stinger contained a large amount of flesh and blood.
Pulling it out from his body, it was obvious that this team member was probably hopeless.
"Damn it! What kind of monster is this!?"
Manuka also saw all this. This scorpion-shaped corpse mutant can actually penetrate the hard parts of heavy armor with its tail stinger. You must know that this is the deepest part of the armor, far from the armor thickness at the joints.
A fierce sense of uneasiness spread from his heart, but basically he did not stay still. Manuka suppressed the shock in his heart, held the trigger of a plasma grenade launcher attached under the electromagnetic rifle, and pointed towards the top of the hall.
Get ready to shoot at the falling scorpion zombies.
"call out---"
A blue round grenade was shot out and came to the vicinity of several scorpion corpse mutants in an instant. However, it did not explode immediately. Instead, it first attached to the alloy wall at the top, and then flashed a few times quickly.
A large amount of water-like blue plasma spurted out, but this blue plasma was not attracted to the ground by the ship's artificial gravity, but directly attached to the bodies of the corpses.
"Ho! Roar!---"
A large amount of gas instantly emitted from several zombies, and screams came from the faces of the corpses whose mouthpieces could no longer be distinguished. The intense high temperature and strong instantaneous current caused these scorpion-shaped zombies to fall from the top.
The ground was, and then he huddled his body and kept twisting on the alloy floor.
"Drag Evan back quickly! I'll cover you!"
Manuka raised the helmet visor on his hand, revealing his resolute and thin face. The plasma grenade will cause chaos in the surrounding wireless signals in a short period of time, and may also directly cause some electronic equipment without EMP protection to malfunction.
, which is also the reason why he has not used it just now. After all, as a commander of a team, he has no way to use the communication unit inside the armor, so he can only raise the face shield of the helmet to convey the order through the human voice. And in
In this situation where the corpse's bone spurs are flying everywhere, this approach is very dangerous.
If by chance a bone spur hit Manuka's face at this time, he would have absolutely no hope of surviving. However, his teammate's chest was punctured with a big hole. If Lai was not pulled back, the whole body might not be alive.
Yes, this forced Manuka to risk his life to support his teammates and retrieve the body of the soldier named Evan.
And Just didn't hesitate much. The two of them kept firing. One of them leaned over and pulled Evan's body back behind the bunker. The medic who was shooting immediately put down his gun and started to check Evan's injuries. But after a moment,
He could only shake his head at Manuka, then also opened the facial mask and said:
"Captain, Evan...his chest was penetrated, and part of the armor collapsed into it. Even if the trauma team is right in front of him, there is no way to come back unless it is replaced immediately.
Artificial organs otherwise..."
Manuka's face was extremely gloomy. His brother and comrade-in-arms died in front of his eyes. This feeling of powerlessness made Jean unable to accept it. At this time, Evan's arm slowly raised, and Manuka leaned over and held his hand.
hand, because the medic should have opened Evan's helmet, which allowed him to talk directly to Manuka, and he said in a weak tone like a gossamer:
"Team...Captain, thank you...for pulling me back...and give me a solution...please help me out!"
Seeing Evan's painful look and the blood foaming from the corner of his mouth, Manuka held back his tears and took out the laser pistol from his waist, placed it on top of Evan's face with some trembling, and slowly placed his hand on the trigger.
, and then pressed it cruelly, and saw a brief thick line appear on his forehead, and Evan tilted his head with a smile on his face.
"Damn necromorph!"
Manuka looked at his dead brother and let out a roar. At this time, an extremely harsh and loud sound suddenly came from behind the necromorphs, which made the necromorphs who were about to break through to Manuka's team
