Everything has a process of adaptation. Faced with the gaffe of the soldiers in Li Tong's team, Kang Danian stopped him with an expression of helplessness and understanding: "Cease fire, everyone cease fire."
No one laughed at the soldier who had his magazine empty and his finger firmly pressed on the trigger. He was indeed not a newbie, but he was obviously experienced to a certain extent. Facing unknown fears and strange monsters, most people would lose their composure.
This is a perfectly normal thing.
At this time, I heard Miao Pu say: "Tou, get ready."
Qian Lihang and the others raised their guns again, aiming at the position pointed by the thin vine. The soil rolled up, and another monster jumped up from the ground. Qian Lihang and the others fired in time.
At this time, Li Tong and others also saw the clue. Qian Lihang and the others did not even think about killing the monster directly. Instead, they used the kinetic energy of the bullet to stop or disrupt the monster's movements. The one who really killed the monster was Miao Pu. Seize the opportunity
, the arrow points directly at the monster's vitals, killing it in one stroke.
After killing the monster, Miao Pu asked Hu Yantie to send two high-explosive grenades, also sent in by Xiteng, and then the rat tunnel collapsed, temporarily blocking the monsters inside.
Stepping forward to inspect the monster's body, Miao Pu also specially condensed two curved lamp heads for illumination.
At first glance, the monster encountered this time is similar to the one encountered in the tunnel before, but if you take a closer look, you will find that the difference is not small. The physiological structure of this monster is more likely to be a plant, rather than half plant and half flesh.
, and the biggest problem is that they don't have any kind of digestive system.
Miao Pu frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyebrows and said: "I think this should be a one-time consumable. The vital point of such monsters is their core, which is also their power source. Once destroyed, they will die immediately, and
Attacking other parts is of little significance. I guess this should be the cannon fodder force temporarily spawned by my thousand-year-old grandmother."
Zhou Shuai spat from the side: "Look at these tendon tissues and muscle groups composed of plant fibers. They are as delicate as animals, but in the end they are just cannon fodder. That monster plant is really luxurious."
Because Miao Pu had knowledge about the strange trees in Yanggu Forest, he naturally thought more deeply. He said: "If you find out that these guys are grown like fruit trees, you can understand why they are so extravagant."
"No way?" Zhou Shuai immediately imagined a strange scene in his mind, a huge tree with monsters hanging on it. This scene was really chilling.
"Haha, why not? It is a mistake to insist on using the cognition of people on earth to estimate the source civilization. The worlds the two sides live in are completely different, and the civilization systems are also completely different. In such a situation
Under the premise, our cognition is of course prone to errors.
Hearing this, Jiang Shangqing interrupted and asked: "Does this kind of monster also exist in the original civilization world?"
"It's not necessarily true, maybe even random mutations are not guaranteed, but they are also a civilization, and their existence is estimated to be longer than ours. They have summarized and perfected their civilization system. This kind of monster is a new mutation.
Yes, they must have the characteristics of original organisms, that’s for sure. Just like mutated creatures occasionally appear on our earth, and we will definitely understand their characteristics based on some existing technologies. We find these monsters incredible.
, maybe it’s normal in the eyes of the source civilization.”
While talking, the group of people had already passed the platform and entered the passage. The sound of gunfire became more and more real. Miao Pu simply estimated that the battle should not take place in the vertical axis area, but closer to the reception area here.
The group of people walked forward for more than a hundred meters, but the road ahead was blocked by a monster.
In addition to the half-plant, half-flesh hybrid monsters and cannon fodder monsters we have seen before, there is also a new kind of monster blocking the road. At first glance, it looks like a wolfdog, with a thin waist and a long back, sharp teeth and a deep mouth, but if you look closely,
, you will find that this kind of monster is rougher than the cannon fodder monster. It is basically a tangle of plants, without even a skin.
Although these plant dogs have a rough structure, they are superior in number. When they found Miao Pu and his party, they immediately killed them. There were also cannon fodder monsters among them. However, the half-flesh, half-plant hybrid monster did not attack, but was killed.
The other two monsters were closely protected.
Seeing this scene, Miao Pu frowned as if thinking about something.
Kang Danian and the others had already opened fire one after another. Although the plant dogs were like the blue-blooded monsters, they could direct energy to the surface, but their efficiency was obviously insufficient.
As a result, ordinary pistol bullets may not be able to handle them, and assault rifles and other more powerful weapons may not be able to withstand them. The severed limbs and short heads they were beaten by Kang Danian were entirely based on their numbers.
As for those cannon fodder monsters, their defensive capabilities are obviously one level higher than those of plant dogs. Not only that, they are also the main attack force of the monster group, trying to attract most of the firepower with their own bodies. When charging, they roar and hammer the ground.
The momentum is amazing.
However, the results of the previous anatomy have been perfectly used here. Everyone knows where their key points are. Using large snipers and sourced steel core bullets, although the shooting frequency is slow, one shot has one life, which is short-lived.
In just 6 seconds, three cannon fodder monsters died on the way to the charge.
Miao Pu seemed to be thinking about something while firing a few arrows from time to time. He opened the bow with great strength. The arrows carried two kinds of energy mixed with yin and yang. He also used the spiral grooves and energy flow on the arrow shaft to achieve the goal.
The effect of high-speed rotation. The arrows felt like flying drills, destroying everything along the way. Several times, they penetrated the bodies of several plant dogs and cannon fodder monsters, directly killing the hybrid monsters they wanted to protect. And people
What can be seen clearly is only the interlaced tail light of gold and silver and the afterimage of the arrow.
Qian Lihang and the others mopped up monsters in large numbers, but the impact on the monsters as a whole was not very great. It was just because of the suppressed firepower that they could not get close to them quickly.
But a few arrows from Miaopu's side had an immediate effect. As soon as those cannon fodder monsters died, about one-third of the charging plant dogs immediately became dazed, and then immediately came closer to attack, like crazy, targeting everyone who was close enough.
of other monsters.
Miao Pu originally just confirmed his speculation, but the effect was so good that even Kang Danian and the others understood the connection.
After that, Miao Pu counted several arrows and shot the remaining monsters to death. The only one left saw that the situation was not good and wanted to run away, but was also knocked down by Miao Pu with one arrow.
As for the last arrow, it was so sharp that even Qian Lihang and the others were dumbfounded. At that time, the half-flesh, half-plant monster had simply escaped Miao Pu's sight, and Miao Pu's arrow
He just penetrated more than ten walls and nailed him to death. The locking ability, judgment ability and arrow power demonstrated by this arrow are all terrifying.
Once the hybrid monster dies, the cannon fodder monster really becomes cannon fodder. It was originally charging with dogs, but now it is trapped in a sea of dogs.
In this case, the weakness of the cannon fodder monster's low IQ and violent temperament showed up, and it actually got into a melee with the plant dog, and the final result can be imagined.
There are nearly 10 hybrid monsters, more than 2 cannon fodder monsters, and more than 300 plant dogs. The long passage is almost blocked by corpses.
Li Tong and the other six were horrified to watch, but Qian Lihang and the others looked relaxed. Hu Yantie lit a cigarette with the red barrel and puffed out: "Ci'ao, this looks like a war, than
I used to have too many highs."
In fact, Qian Lihang and the others have a similar feeling. They are more accustomed to the kind of battles with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood instead of all kinds of insidious and cunning attacks. In Xue Ming's words: "It feels like going to a magical world, everything
Dushen Shen is so rude, I really don’t get used to it.”
Perhaps it was because Miao Pu and the others broke through the monster defense line so easily that the monsters were caught off guard. In short, after solving these monsters, there was no big fight anymore, and they successfully found Yu Haojun, who was fighting with the monsters.
et al.
It was Miao Pu who showed off his power again, rushing in alone and killing the mixed monsters behind the group of monsters.
The group of monsters who lost their leader immediately became confused, some of them escaped, and most of them died in the fight between themselves and others.
Faced with the praise from everyone afterwards, Miao Pu just smiled and said nothing. Although the group activities of these monsters were large in number, to him, they were far less of a threat than the strange blue blood monsters, fire claw monsters and the like.
Big. For him now, low-end combat power can no longer pose any threat to him, nor can the human sea tactic, which is determined by the level, just like a hundred babies cannot defeat an adult.
It is worth mentioning that although low-end monsters no longer pose any threat to Miao Pu, they can still be used to replenish energy, and hybrid monsters and cannon fodder monsters are both very good providers of life energy. Due to their strange life characteristics,
Sex, even if the body dies, the flow of life energy is much slower than that of ordinary creatures.
Unfortunately, Miao Pu didn't have time to refine and purify it now, and couldn't bear to waste it, so it spawned several vine creatures.
The large ones are called vine monsters, and the small ones are called vine creatures. The vine creatures are also controlled by Xuan Ling. Their combat power is not outstanding, and because of Xuan Ling, Miao Pu is not willing to let them explore the way, but he
They can be good assistants for traveling with the team, such as carrying heavy loads. With them, they can carry more ammunition and materials. When the group came, a lot of them were pulled on the rail car, and most of them were originally used for Li Tong and the others.
It was used for the defense. Now that the defense plan has been abandoned, in addition to replenishing some for Yu Haojun and the others, it has become the expedition supplies of Miao Pu and his party.
Although I don’t want to get too involved in the affairs of the institute, I still have to ask about some things, such as the whereabouts of Xie Hongjun and others, and the death of Yu Haojun and others...
After asking, I found out that Xie Hongjun and his party had left the outer ring a few hours ago and went deep into the peripheral area of the ruins. They lost contact with Yu Haojun and others guarding the research institute two hours after setting off. They were attacked by a group of monsters there.
Shortly afterwards.
After listening to Yu Haojun's explanation, Miao Pu sighed and said: "Although I also know that I shouldn't say frustrating words at this time, but the front leg lost contact, the back leg monster army came to attack, and destroyed the research institute, agricultural reclamation station and material distribution center
Communication links, it doesn’t look like an isolated incident.”
Hearing this, Yu Haojun said anxiously: "If you are unfortunate enough to predict this, then Xie Hongjun and the others must be in great need of support now."
"Well, it's not hard to imagine. Divide and surround each other and defeat them one by one. One thing we misjudged before is that our opponents have no shortage of cannon fodder at all. Just look at these monsters. This is because we are not stupid enough yet.
After taking precautions, the commanders at each point are still determined, otherwise the opponent would still be able to encircle the points to bring reinforcements, and then the passage would not be preserved."
Yu Haojun heard the implication of Miao Pu's words and frowned: "Then you mean, we won't save Xie Hongjun and the others?"
"We have been jumping into this pitfall of rescuing people over and over again. Haven't we been tricked enough yet?" Miao Pu felt unhappy and was too lazy to express his words tactfully.
Then Miao Pu said: "What kind of place is Huangcheng? You don't know? We have experienced how dangerous this underground world is, and we have discussed it over and over again. No need to say more. Save people? How to save them? I told you that there is a God of Desolation
There are so many people, and just that Guo Yang can keep me busy for a long time, but you still insist on going your own way... Oh, I'm too lazy to say it."
Although the only people present for discussion at this time were Miao Pu, Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing, Miao Pu's scolding still made Yu Haojun a little worried. She retorted: "You have to know that the commander-in-chief is Xie Hongjun, not me.
.More importantly, we are also working steadily. After you left, the entire institute was cleaned from top to bottom. Even the sewage channels were cleaned, and the inspection openings were reinforced. At that time, the institute was cleared, and there was no trace behind.
The problem, of course, is to move forward
Miao Pu himself may not have realized that he seemed to have a low tolerance for women. He snorted coldly and said: "Yeah, it's not that the imperial army is incompetent but that it is too cunning..."
This sentence of referring to Sang and Huai made Yu Haojun's face turn pale. He choked for a long time before saying: "I didn't say that, but we can't be fully prepared for the actions we carry out, and we can't foresee all the dangers."
Miao Pu wanted to continue to choke the beautiful officer, but Kang Danian pulled him back. Jiang Shangqing came out at the right time to smooth things over and said, "Okay, no one wants this. We have just discovered our previous error in judgment."
.”
When Yu Haojun saw Jiang Shangqing come out to smooth things over, he stopped arguing and began to exchange the information they had.
After a while, Yu Haojun asked in surprise: "You mean the plants here have formed a system? And is there any weird tree monster behind the scenes?"
"It's not necessarily a tree monster, it should be a kind of plant anyway. [Cang Lang] judged that it should have a big head." Kang Danian replied.
This news was obviously something Yu Haojun had never thought of. After a brief moment of surprise, he said: "It's my fault for not discovering this problem in time. I admit it, because this is not mentioned at all in various information and intelligence, and these plants have always been
What is shown is neutrality and no distinction between friend and foe."
Seeing Yu Haojun admitting his mistake, Miao Pu did not continue to make things difficult for her, but said in a deep voice: "Now that you know it, are you still going to jump into that trap?"
At this time, Jiang Shangqing interjected: "We should also properly trust our teammates. Xie Hongjun and his party, a dozen awakened people, and dozens of elites are not so easy to chew. They failed to return immediately, and most of the time they were blocked.
For reasons like that, instead of being surrounded and annihilated. If it is really the latter, can we really achieve our goal with the little combat power we have now?"
Yu Haojun said nothing, but looked at Miao Pu.
The meaning is obvious: as long as this powerful man is willing to nod, it should be possible.
Miao Pu, who was not in a beautiful mood, really wanted to say something at this time: "Ci'ao, you are accustomed to all the bad things. You have asked me to jump into the pit once, twice, and three times. I'm really afraid that I won't die, right?" But in the end, he held it back.
At this time, there is no benefit in having an internal stalemate. This kind of venting is unnecessary and has no practical significance. It is better not to say anything.
Miao Pu didn't say anything, but Kang Danian had to stand up and say some fair words: "You all know what kind of difficulties we have encountered since the operation and how we solved them. It is no exaggeration to say that this
The underground ruins are traps carefully designed by the Aragami. Basically, whoever steps on them will die. [Blue Wolf] has been able to turn the tide time and time again, and this is how we are now."
Jiang Shangqing also helped at this time: "Well, yes, and [Cang Lang] has always been injured. He experienced a terrible battle before, and our team needs a long period of rest. You all know this. But that's it,
We are still here tonight. I am not trying to give credit to anyone, but I want to tell you that we definitely have the passion for paoze, and we are definitely not inferior to you. But there is a limit to everything, and we cannot let our highest level go.
If you die on the battlefield while your combat power is constantly being depleted, can this be considered as fulfilling your duty?"
As if he remembered something, Jiang Shang added: "You have to know that when a combat force of Guo Yang's level appears, [Cang Lang] is severely depleted and cannot bear to fight again. What do you think we can do to resist at that time?
Now the overall combat power of the enemy and ourselves is not at the same level at all. Without the unexpected addition of [Green Wolf], I feel that now we are either transforming into hybrid monsters, or we have already turned into monster excrement."
In fact, Yu Haojun also understands the truth, but when people encounter unsolvable difficulties and see the hope of external help and solution, they always hope that this external force can help more and more...
This leads to subconsciously ignoring that external forces are also forces, and people's forces are not infinite.
"What do those three people mean?" Yu Haojun asked, but his eyes were still fixed on Miao Pu. She knew that in this situation, if Miao Pu made the decision, Kang Danian and Jiang Shangqing would not object.
.
Of course Miao Pu didn't want to make this decision. He was not stupid. He had to take responsibility for making decisions. He was not afraid of responsibility, but some responsibilities should not be placed on him.
But under the current situation, Miao Pu was unwilling to waste time and continue to argue. After thinking about it, he said: "I suggest, just a personal suggestion, to retreat to the material distribution center. The monsters can open the rat tunnel at will, and there is no longer any rearrangement. Materials
The deployment center will be attacked by monsters like this at any time. Ensure the access, report to superiors, and turn the No. D channel ground station into a new communication terminal. This is what should be done and is easier to do. As for Xie Hongjun and others
, as Captain Kang said, we must trust the abilities of our comrades and believe that even if they cannot withdraw, they can still stand firm and wait for reinforcements."
"What about you?"
"We can't let the enemy lead us by the nose. If everything goes smoothly, someone has to do something." This is what Kang Danian said. He is the honorary captain, and he needs to take some blame.
Yes, someone has to do something, but what to do now?
Miao Pu focused on the roots in the water purification channel.
