This game is too real.

Chapter 755 I am the wave!

In the gray-green thick fog, a ten-man squad armed to the teeth was slowly advancing.

They wear fully protective exoskeletons, or carry a compact G9 assault rifle in their hands, or a Gauss rifle equipped with an extended magnetic rail, and some have two short and thick portable guns on their backs. bazooka.

In the middle of the team, there is an unmanned tracked vehicle with a width of three meters following. The remote control weapon station welded to the roof of the vehicle has a hideous 20mm gun barrel, and a gun hangs below the barrel. 60mm short grenade with belt.

The silver-white painting seemed out of tune with the surrounding atmosphere, but no one dared to doubt the firepower of this team.

Just a few days ago, the council finally approved a batch of new equipment procurement projects and bought the bottom-of-box inventory of Changge Group.

Perhaps it was shocked by the tragic battle situation on the front line, and finally no one on the council beeped, "We don't need Gauss rifles to deal with a group of guys who don't even have exoskeletons. Our soldiers only need to tell the plane where to bomb it." Stupid talk.

Thanks to this, Tang Feng finally saw the "sniper" he was thinking of.

But at this moment, he is no longer interested in this thing, any messy parameters are just floating clouds, and the life-saving guy is of course the most important thing to use smoothly.

"...where are we now?"

"Hai Ya."

"Haiya...is this Haiya? I thought it was Mars."

The machine gunner with a light machine gun glanced at the yellowed and damaged tourist poster in his hand, then at the viaduct bridge in front of him that was broken in two, and at the rusty highway sign lying in a pile of concrete garbage——

【Laishan City, 5km ahead】

In front of them is Laishan City, which is also the first stop for them to set foot in Haiya Province.

But there is no city here, and everywhere you look is dilapidated and desolate that is visible to the naked eye.

It seemed that this land was not on the earth at all, but on another dead planet.

Dark green slurry flows under the black soil, just like the magma that splits hell, and the corrosion from Nago has penetrated every inch of the soil here.

There was not a living tree to be seen here, not even a living grass.

The dead wood standing on the land is like bones that have been weathered for many years, its nutrients have been completely deprived, and it is used to support the owner of this land - Naguo.

The situation here is even worse than in Weifu Wasteland.

Or rather, the hell they saw in Weifu Wasteland was just the tip of the iceberg of this real hell.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he threw aside the poster he picked up from nowhere.

Not far from him, a soldier with a rifle leaned over, took out a test tube from the sample box on his waist, and routinely sampled the soil rich in nago mycelia on the ground.

This is one of the tasks entrusted to them by the Frontline Research Institute - to collect a soil sample every time they advance 100 meters after entering Haiya Province.

As for the main task, it is "reconnaissance of the edge of the 'Northern No. 1 War Zone' city ruins, and confirm the position of the enemy."

This sounds like the work of a drone, but unfortunately, the drone flew here twice before, not to mention a human figure, not even a living thing.

Reasonable analysis shows that the Church of the Torch probably wiped out this piece of land with a total area of ​​nearly 67 square kilometers.

Of course, another possibility is not ruled out, those guys hid people.

After all, humans are needed to breed mutants, and experiments on Gestalt life forms also need people.

Although human cloning can solve part of the problem, considering a series of factors such as scale and cost, it is of course cheaper to produce humans naturally.

After all, this land has become such a ghost, and it is not full of all kinds of weird and prosperous era equipment like the great desert. We can't expect that there will still be a large-scale power station, a large group of skilled workers, And a cloning factory full of high-tech equipment.

If that's the case, it's a good solution.

All it takes is a missile with a nuclear warhead attached to it to remove the flare from the land.

Sadly though, those monsters don't need such a thing as "industry".They don't need electricity or consumer goods. At most, there are only some discrete processing workshops to improve some weapons that are suitable for them.

According to the analysis of the coalition staff, the Church of the Torch probably controls several shelters as research and development bases, and probably also controls a batch of black boxes with special functions.

And this can also explain why they obviously do not have a large-scale processing center, but they can produce some equipment with technical specifications far exceeding the actual conditions of Haiya Province.

"...I heard that there is a very famous hot spring in Laishan City." Picking up the poster dropped by the machine gunner, a soldier picked it up, glanced at it and said with a smile, "The location is in the suburbs...it seems to be near us."

The soldier next to him whistled and joked.

"Are you going to take a bath?"

"I heard that the guys who were infected in Yongdong City are still lying in the research institute of Yunjian University."

"Haha... it's better to avoid it."

A group of people were playing tricks on the communication channel, and Tang Feng, who was standing outside the team, suddenly frowned vigilantly.

The dark green slurry flowing under the soil seemed to be surging and gathering near them.

Although the magnitude of the surge was small, the bionic plug-in attached to his iris recorded the movement parameters, and the changes in numbers visible to the naked eye could never be mistaken.

He opened the safety of the rifle in his hand, pointing the muzzle slightly at the ruins filled with gray mist.

"There is a situation."

The noise on the communication channel stopped abruptly.

A group of soldiers immediately became vigilant and dispersed to form a vigilant formation.

A heavy infantryman quickly unfolded the folding bunker on his back, and planted it heavily on the ground, like a fan-shaped shield.

The machine gunner quickly leaned over, put the light machine gun in his hand above the shooting hole in the center of the shield, and shouted at his teammates behind him.

"The machine gun bunker is ready!"

Another drone operator with a backpack squatted on the ground, and the backpack on his back made two bangs.

Two folded four-rotor UAVs ejected into the air, turned over a few times in the air, stabilized their bodies, and then rushed into the fog like an arrow off the string.

"Drone launched! Searching nearby area...no moving objects in sight!"

The sniper with a Gauss rifle looked at the empty thermal imaging screen, with a trace of confusion on his face, and looked at Tang Feng who was the first to discover the situation.

"Did you read it wrong?"

"On the ground!" Tang Feng took a deep breath, and said with certainty, "The dark green slime...they are gathering near us. I always feel that something bad is about to happen."

The team leader walked up to the drone operator and patted the drone operator on the shoulder.

The drone operator understood immediately and assigned the vision of one of the drones to the team leader.

Wearing a visual operation device that looks like glasses on the helmet, the captain operated the drone and circled around, carefully inspecting the dark green slurry spread all over the land through the drone's field of vision, brow It quickly wrinkled up.

Indeed, as his team members said, the dark green slurry was stirring at a steady frequency, as if it was sending some unknown force to somewhere under their feet.

If you look down from the top, the law is more obvious and more spectacular.

The aerial footage captured by the drone was synchronized to the tactical eyepieces of all the team members. A rifleman couldn't help but swallowed and complained in a low voice.

"I heard that some organs are not used in normal times, and they will be congested only when they are needed...Damn it, I also started to have a bad feeling."

The captain's Adam's apple moved, his expression became more solemn, and he immediately reported the situation on the front line to the command post, and then loudly ordered in the communication channel.

"Mission cancelled! Prepare to retreat—"

Almost at the same time as his welcome fell, a rustling sound passed through the thick fog.

It's like a cicada singing suddenly.

Catching the flashing figure, Tang Feng reflexively raised the muzzle of his gun, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Tud-chug--!"

Orange flames were ejected from the muzzle of the gun, and streaks of tracer lights instantly pierced through the black shadows that emerged from the dense fog.

It was a half-human, half-dog monster, with a thin body like a sausage, and its bald face and head seemed to be burned by fire.

Having been shot several times in the chest, it let out a stern howl, and the green to black blood spilled on the ground along the wound, but even so, the guy still didn't stop moving, and moved towards the position of the enterprise team with all four hands on the ground. run wildly.

At this moment, an electromagnetically accelerated mass bomb instantly pierced through its celestial cap, passing through its thighs.

That guy seemed to be sucked into a meat grinder, his whole body was exploded by the huge kinetic energy, and instantly exploded into a black and green blood mist.

Four kinds of stumps and broken arms rolled and fell to the ground, while the black-green blood mist slowly merged into the mist.

"'It's a bacteria variant'!" The drone operator confirmed the identity of the monster and reported on the communication channel.

The so-called fungus variant is a general term for the fruiting bodies born of Naguo corrosion, which is used to distinguish it from the fruiting bodies of the variant slime mold.

According to different species, there are several sub-categories under the category of bacterial variants, such as the common "walking corpse", "corpse dog" and so on.

As for the guy they encountered, it was a bit like the creeper produced by the slime fungus fruiting body in Qingquan City, except that it was smaller in terms of size, strength and speed.

Pressing the muzzle of the gun, the precise shooter who looked at the Gauss rifle couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.

"Damn it, didn't the drone already sweep this area, why did this thing come out!"

Tang Feng stared at the scope, aiming at the direction where the monster rushed out.

"It's probably the same as the situation in Weifu Wasteland, it crawled out from the ground—"

"Day! Below!"

The exclamation from the communication channel interrupted him, and he subconsciously glanced behind him, only to see a skinny hand protruding from the soil, grabbing a comrade not far behind him calf.

The strength of that hand is not great, at least it can't do anything to the leggings of the exoskeleton.

However, the rifleman was still taken aback, and hastily pulled out the pistol from his waist and pointed it at the bottom of his body with a bang.

The arm that had just stretched out of the soil was instantly torn apart, but the sputtered shrapnel almost scratched his breastplate.

Seeing what happened to the comrades-in-arms beside them, there was a trace of panic in everyone's eyes.

Unexpectedly, the danger came not only from the surroundings, but also directly under their feet.

But at this moment, shrill shouts sounded from all directions, and the sound of running surged up like a tide.

"Three o'clock direction! The machine gunner suppresses firepower!"

"Roger that!"

The captain roared loudly and gave the order to attack. The machine gunner leaning behind the cover gritted his teeth, his index finger was almost welded to the trigger.

With the sound of the roaring machine gun, the silence and thick fog that permeated the wilderness were torn apart.

"Roar--!"

The corpse dog waving its limbs howled and rushed forward, followed by a large number of walking corpses.

The riflemen scattered around also immediately pulled the trigger and fired, shooting and killing the bacteria mutants that rushed up.

At the same time, the tracked vehicle parked in the middle of the team also entered a combat state. The 20mm cannon on the remote control weapon station sprayed out thick and long tongues of flames, and under the guidance of the precision shooter's laser, it moved towards the place where the walking corpses were most dense. Unleashes ferocious firepower.

However, even though the firepower of this mechanized team was ferocious enough, those vicious mutant bacteria couldn't even stand in front of them for two seconds. Faced with the continuous impact, the soldiers still felt a little bit of difficulty.

There are too many of them!

These guys are like pus squeezed out of the soil, except for the part that can be seen, there are still many buried in the ground that have not been squeezed out!
Looking at the more and more dense bacteria variants, the machine gunner squatting behind the mobile cover roared loudly while changing the magazine.

"How long will it take for the plane that takes us to evacuate to arrive!"

Continuing to pull the trigger, the captain yelled over the communication channel.

"Already on the way! It will be there in 10 minutes!"

"Two 10 minutes?!"

"Damn... are they going to collect the corpse for us?!"

There was a lot of cursing in the communication channel, and the captain couldn't help but yelled again.

"Stop talking nonsense! Keep an eye on your targets! And keep an eye on your feet—"

The enemy's attacks come not only from their surroundings, but also from their feet.

Arms emerged from the soil from time to time, just like the sprouts that broke through the ground.

Although it is not difficult to deal with them, they can be smashed with a dagger or a gun butt, but they still can't stop them coming out wave after wave.

Even if they have carried 3 times the baseline amount of ammunition, they still cannot support the dense number.

10 minutes to go—

Looking at the last magazine in his hand, Tang Feng gritted his teeth and inserted it into the rifle.

If the evacuation plane doesn't arrive, they can only fight these twisted things hand-to-hand.

At this moment, the captain's surprise voice suddenly came from the communication channel.

"Cloudfly! It's our air force! They're here!"

Tang Feng raised his head subconsciously, the gray fog covered the sky, and he couldn't see anything.

But at this moment, the sound of the electric current came into their communication channel.

"This is 'Raccoon', we have entered the sky above you, please place an attack beacon to guide us."

They didn't need their reminders at all, the precision shooters in the team had already acted and shot the signal bomb under the viaduct where the bacteria variants were most dense.

The voice full of security soon continued to come from the communication channel.

"Beacon location confirmation, please keep a safe distance... 3, 2, 1——"

At the same time as the countdown fell, tracer bullets poured down from the air like a gust of wind and showers, and instantly crushed the mutant bacteria running on the concrete gravel into a pulp.

Dozens of rockets fell right behind, and the flames that exploded in an instant actually cleared a vacuum zone in the center of the wave-like bacteria variants.

In the center of the flames, a walking corpse missing half of its body roared mournfully, but it didn't take long for it to lose its voice.

Blocked by the turbulent heat wave, a group of walking corpses pushed and shoved for a long time, but none of them dared to step forward, and could only rush towards the two sides of the sea of ​​fire, trying to bypass the burning sea of ​​fire.

"Good job!"

The precision shooters in the team cheered excitedly, and then fired the second and third beacons in the same way.

According to the triangle circled by the beacon, the six Yunfly oropters on standby in the air confirmed the position of the friendly forces, and they completely let go of their hands and feet. nest!

Boiling walls of fire separated the surging bacteria mutants from the soldiers within the walls of fire.

At the same time, about ten wooden gliders suddenly broke through the smoke screen above the raging fire, and crashed heavily into the rocky wilderness.

About forty or fifty soldiers jumped out of the ten gliders.

They held LD-47 assault rifles in their hands, with bayonets inserted under the muzzles of the rifles, all of them wore gas masks on their faces, and engineer shovels hung from their waists.

Apparently they're from the Union.

And judging from the logos on their clothes, it was still the famous Death Corps.

But for some reason, these people did not wear exoskeletons, but only brought some crude equipment.

Those people were shouting loudly, saying words he couldn't understand, and he didn't know what they were shouting...

"Super! What the hell is this thing called an airplane?"

"My ass is about to crack!"

Looking at the group of noisy Mengxin, the extrajudicial fanatic couldn't help but think of himself a year ago.

At that time in Luoxia Province, they were so noisy when they charged towards Zhandi.

However, thanks to that "live ammunition training", they have grown from a beginner who knows nothing to a qualified fighter in less than a month.

Now he can be regarded as promoted to the ranks of "veteran players" and has become the backbone of the Death Corps.

And this operation is exactly the task entrusted to him by the commander of the corps, Bian Huashui, and he will lead these newbies to their deaths—hey, accept the baptism of war!

"Anyway, it's a one-off... Benima complained, so quickly remove the machine gun! It's still usable!"

Carrying a shotgun, the outlaw lunatic who walked to the front of the formation calmly yelled at the rookies, raised his foot and crushed the palm that had drilled out of the soil and stretched towards his ankle.

The player who was still dawdling next to the glider just found his rifle and turned around and shouted at him.

"Captain, where's the ammunition box? Pull it out too?"

The outlaw rolled his eyes.

"Nonsense! Is there even a need to ask?"

As soon as his voice fell, another player shouted.

"Captain! How can we go back when the plane breaks down?"

Seeing that the question was getting more and more idiotic, the extrajudicial lunatic replied impatiently.

"When did I say I was going back?"

Just kidding, this plane doesn't even have an engine, how can it fly back?
However, when all the newcomers heard this sentence, they were stunned on the spot.

I will make up the head: "Fuck!"

High-end ingredients: "This tmd is a black car!"

Sudden death at night: "Crying! Captain, is there still time to get off the car?"

The retreating dwarf: "I can't play the game for three days... that kind of thing, don't!"

Seeing the gang of wolves crying and howling, the extrajudicial lunatics couldn't help but yelled and roared.

"Didn't you even read the rules before you joined the Corps? Give me cheer up!"

"Use your bullets, bayonets, butts, engineering shovels, fists, and even your teeth, use all the methods you can think of, and all the tools you can find, to smash the enemy's skull until they or you stop the heartbeat!"

"The Death Corps has no counsel to retreat. No matter what the opponent is, we only have one whistle and that is to move forward! Move forward—!"

"Open your safety and load your rifles! Show me where your limits are!"

That roar really ignited the blood in some people's hearts, and the noisy voice finally subsided.

However, he still wanted to say that there are so many problems with the current rookies, it's really not as good as the previous one!

The outlaw lunatic complained in his heart, but he forgot how stupid he was when he first entered the game.

Knowing that it would be too late even if they wanted to get out of the car, all the newcomers could only settle down.

Even if it is to live a few more minutes, even if it is to get that generous mission reward, they have to show some real skills.

However, perhaps because they already knew their ending, these newcomers who were on the battlefield for the first time were not as nervous as when they just got off the plane, and one and two were looking forward to the next battle instead.

Seeing the two soldiers dragging the ammunition boxes out of the glider's cabin, Tang Feng, who was leaning against the concrete wall, was stunned for a while, and shouted at them.

"Hey! What are you doing here?"

The outlaw lunatic yelled back with a smile.

"Here to help!"

"Help... help? We are all ready to withdraw!" Tang Feng replied with a confused face.

The extrajudicial lunatic smiled and said, "We are here to cover your retreat!"

Hearing this, Tang Feng was even more confused. When he came back to his senses, he was both moved and ashamed.

What moved him was the allies' care for them, which was really nothing to say.

It was the same when they attacked the Fushan position before. If it weren't for their help, I don't know how many people would have died on that mountain.

What made him ashamed was that in order to save his 10 people, they had dispatched nearly one-third of a company's troops...

What a group of good people who sacrifice themselves for others!

He was not the only one who felt this way, but most of the soldiers present were also like this.

With gratitude and guilt in their hearts, they cheered up again.

With the arrival of support, the situation of the battle suddenly changed.

But even so, it won't do any good to continue entanglement here. They have collected the required samples and confirmed the local situation through this initial confrontation. Now it is time to go home with the spoils.

10 minutes was just right, a killer whale transport plane appeared in the sky, and two azure blue plasma plumes were like spears poking at the soft soil.

Billows of dust rose, and the rear hatch fell heavily on the ground. A soldier wearing an exoskeleton stood at the hatch, holding a rotary machine gun fixed in the cabin with both hands.

"retreat!"

The captain of the enterprise team yelled through the communication channel, beckoning his teammates to retreat to the open hatch.

Including the crawler vehicle with the remote control weapon station welded on the roof, the ten-member team all retreated to the engine room. Although everyone looked tired, fortunately there was no casualty.

Standing at the door of the cabin, Tang Feng yelled at the friendly soldiers outside who hadn't boarded the plane yet.

"We're about to take off! Come up!"

However, to his surprise, the man replied with a smile.

"No need! You have a good journey!"

After all, the cabin door was slowly closed upwards.

Tang Feng's eyes widened, and he just stared helplessly at the figure, which disappeared at the edge of the cabin door.

"Wait, why did you withdraw!"

With disbelief written on his face, he strode up to the crew, grabbed the man's shoulders with both hands and shouted, "Our friendly troops haven't boarded the plane yet—"

"That's their job!"

A voice behind him interrupted him.

The captain with the helmet tucked under his arm walked up to him, and put his hand on his shoulder with a heavy expression.

"Their mission is to test the limits of the 'wave', where they will fight to the end, until the 'real enemy' emerges from there... That's the Field Research Institute's speculation, Nago doesn't have a brood, but there should be something like hatching organs, they need a complete study of the whole process."

In addition, they were also inoculated with biological prosthetic bodies with "type B strain plug-ins".

However, it remains to be seen how effective that thing can be.

"... let's continue walking with respect for them. This war is not over yet, and it's too early to be sad."

Looking at Tang Feng who was wide-eyed in astonishment, the team leader sighed softly, patted him on the shoulder, returned to his seat and sat down without saying anything.

Although others were soft-spoken, sometimes he couldn't help but think that they who lived in the ideal city might really owe a lot to the people in the wasteland.

Their ancestors accomplished miraculous feats, and they were much nobler than the wastelanders, but even so, this should not be a reason for them to enjoy everything in peace.

When some people sacrifice their lives for a common disaster, those who survive should shoulder the responsibilities and obligations equivalent to "the lost weight", rather than regard being alive and rich as an inherent privilege .

They survived because someone died for them...

Just like now.

Just when these boys from Ideal City were feeling heavy, the players who were left on the battlefield became more and more emotional.

The offensive of bacterial variants is getting more and more fierce!

It's completely different from the indecision just now!

Perhaps seeing some people retreating, they feel that they can do it again, and they are confident that these people will stay!

At the beginning, there were only some dangerous level 1 miscellaneous fish such as walking corpses or dead dogs, but soon more and more monsters with danger levels 2~3 appeared.

After all, those present were newcomers, and there had already been some casualties.

Looking at the increasingly raging "wave", the face of the extrajudicial lunatic twisted into a sinister smile.

Good to come!
It's been a long time since I've had such a good time!

Shaking the mucus and blood off his arms, he loaded the shotgun and let out a final roar.

"Brothers! Show those cowards who only dare to hide in the background and play tricks! Let them see who is the real wave!!!"

He was answered by roars of excitement.

"Ouch!"

Looking at the group of younger brothers with high morale, the corner of his mouth gradually turned into a smile.

These rookies...

It's so embarrassing to shout indistinctly!

but--

It seems that they have gradually realized the fun of the Death Corps.

This life is worth it!
