Chapter 279 The mother nest falls!

  Chapter 279 The mother nest falls!

  Street 65.

  Under the bell tower covered with slime mold.

  Standing in the center of the fungus blanket, the queen let out a dry and hoarse roar.

  Panic and anger were like a tsunami, spreading restless ripples along its tentacle-like hair.

  The aliens around it cried out.

  The mother nest behind it was still producing non-stop, but those weak “newborns” could not bring it any sense of security.

  In particular, the continuous death of node creatures made it lose control of the front line, and its children were suffering meaningless casualties…

  The scarlet pupils were full of confusion.

  The continuous and intensive offensive had lasted for nearly ten nights, and it could see the withering of life in the gray-green fog.

  But it didn’t understand.

  Those people…

  Why can’t they be killed?

  Even after so many days of consumption, they still have the energy to take the initiative to attack.

  What it couldn’t figure out was that through the gray-green fog, it actually sensed a series of familiar “ripples”.

  It was totally incomprehensible.

  That group of ants that resisted evolution…

  didn’t they die once?

  …

  under the collapsed overpass.

  The truck covered with slime mold was slowly retreating, and a large number of gnawers swarmed in, rushing towards Lao Bai and his group hiding in the building.

  Before the truck retreated to the end of the street, a rocket with a tail flame caught up and hit its front squarely.

  The warhead exploded, and the entire cockpit was sprayed with sparks and pierced by the high-temperature liquid metal.

  The cockpit is its weak point.

  To be precise, it is the driver’s position.

  As the fungus blocks in the cockpit were destroyed, the truck broke down on the spot, and the fungus blocks in the car compartment stopped squirming, and the gnawers that had crawled into the cargo box before also crawled out one after another.

  ”Nice!” Ye Shi, who was leaning against the second-floor window with a gun, shouted excitedly.

  ”The enemy’s artillery position has been destroyed!”

  Standing in front of another window, Lao Bai calmly put away the launcher that was emitting green smoke, glanced at the VM on his arm, and his eyes lit up.

  [Mission: Decisive Battle Moment!]

  Here it comes!

  The counterattack has begun!

  Scrambled Eggs, who was holding the LD light machine gun, kept pulling the trigger, using the flames from the muzzle to tear the gnawers that climbed down from the truck into pieces.

  The node creatures were destroyed, and the gnawers that were out of control kept rushing downstairs, including a few crawlers!

  However, the lizard guarding the door was like a door god, preventing the swarming aliens from taking a single step forward! Every swing of the claws was like a bloody storm.

  The crawlers that rushed up were torn into two pieces, and the amber pupils in the dark flashed with excitement and bloodthirstiness.

  This alone was not enough. The completely crazy garbage man was harvesting crazily, and he couldn’t help but howl in his mouth.

  ”Completely crazy!”

  The violent factor buried deep in his blood was completely released, and he felt the strong desire flowing in his blood vessels.

  The part of the DNA sequence that was not read

  was awakening!

  Fang Chang, who was standing next to him, drew his bow and shot an arrow, which accurately penetrated the head of another crawler, and the fragments of the explosion immediately shattered half of its head.

  The action of drawing the bow and shooting the arrow was almost as fast as a gust of wind!

  And Kuangfeng, who was standing next to him, had a light machine gun against his right shoulder, shooting and harvesting the rushing gnawers.

  Although the single combat power of the mechanical arm is difficult to exert, it is still stable with the KV-1 exoskeleton to suppress the gun!

  In order to fully adapt to the close-range street fighting environment, he simply replaced the bipod under the muzzle with a bayonet, and completely transformed into the front row!

  The corpses piled up into a small hill.

  The gnawers on the artillery position have been cleared, and now almost all of the ones rushing up are aliens from other places.

  The wave seems to be retreating.

  However, the aliens that were withdrawn from the front line just hit them in the face.

  Looking at the alien swarm coming from the corner of the street, the expression of Jieyan, who was squatting by the second-floor window changing the magazine, changed slightly.

  He only had the last two magazines left!

  ”Old White, the mission has been completed… When will we retreat?”

  ”Retreat? Not happening!”

  Old White shouted excitedly.

  ”Brothers, hold on! The whistle for the counterattack has been blown! Our reinforcements will arrive soon!”

  Ye Shi turned his head and said unexpectedly.

  ”Reinforcements?”

  He didn’t think there would be reinforcements for this mission.

  This is already a very backward position. A few steps ahead is the clock tower of No. 65 Street.

  It can be said that the mother nest is somewhere under their noses!

  ”Friendly forces on the front line have defeated the wave! They are on their way!”

  The moment Old White’s voice fell, a piercing scream came from the air.

  ”Be careful to hide!”

  At first, thinking it was a rocket attack, Old White shouted and buried his head reflexively.

  The people behind the second-floor bunker followed suit, but they soon discovered that it was not rockets that were coming, but Mosquito gliders that were more terrifying than rockets.

  The sound of “da da da” was like the roar of a cloth tearing machine, and the rain of bullets falling from the sky drew two arcs of death on the street.

  The gnawers crowded on the street corner fell down instantly like wheat being cut.

  Looking at the silhouette whizzing by and the fleeting “WX-1”, Ye Shi’s face was full of confusion.

  ”Fuck?! What is that?”

  ”Mosquito’s glider…” Lao Bai swallowed his saliva, and his eyes were also full of surprise.

  Obviously he didn’t expect that the pile of wooden parts would actually fly up.

  He thought Mosquito was joking!

  ”Hahahaha, this is so fucking cool!”

  In the cabin of the glider, Mosquito held the joystick tightly with both hands, his congested face was full of excitement and excitement, and his whole body was full of adrenaline.

  Shells were constantly thrown out of the cabin, and the roaring machine gun made his legs numb.

  Unfortunately, the 7mm caliber is a bit small!

  The Maxim gun without the water cooling box has no splash effect. If it is replaced with the 30mm cannon of the same model as the A-10, the whole street can be overturned!

  A dive took away a large number of gnawers.

  Mosquito pulled up the joystick suddenly.

  The glider whizzed down and slid past the half-collapsed overpass. Then it swung sideways and passed through the gap between the buildings, brushing against the tilted building. The

  restless heartbeat gradually calmed down. Mosquito took a deep breath slowly, straightened the fuselage, and then raised the altitude.

  This plane is still a bit difficult to control.

  Without a gyroscope, he can only judge whether the fuselage is balanced by feeling.

  ”Damn… I still have to make a gyroscope and a pitot tube. Without these two things, I am just risking my life to fly a plane!”

  Muttering to himself, Mosquito took the time to look at the battlefield below.

  The full-scale counterattack has begun.

  Company A, composed of 120 players, served as the main force of the attack and took the lead in launching the attack. The three companies B, C, and D were on standby behind Company A, while Company E and Company F were deployed from the flanks, apparently intending to infiltrate both sides of Street 65 and launch a pincer attack in cooperation with ABCD on the front battlefield.

  In addition, there was a reserve team of 400 people on standby in the rear, ready to fill in at any time when there were heavy casualties in the front.

  Although the space in this city is not small, in fact, there are only a few roads that can really pass through, and it is still somewhat difficult to fully deploy more than a thousand people.

  The advancement of a hundred people is already the limit that the width of the battlefield can accommodate.

  And if you want to go from the ruins with complex road conditions to the rear of the mother nest, you have to further break up the whole into pieces and advance in groups of ten or even three or five people.

  However, this is also the advantage of the players.

  Even if they are fighting alone, the players who receive the task can still maintain high morale, and can even sacrifice without hesitation for the collective victory.

  If they are replaced by mercenaries or the militia of Boulder City, asking them to disperse the team into the ruins and penetrate into the hinterland of the alien species is almost the same as asking them to die.

  The Mosquito adjusted the nose and quickly launched the second round of air strikes.

  VM had been tied to his thigh as a radar.

  Through the positions of other players and the flashing gunfire on the street, he could roughly judge where the battle was more intense and where the aliens were dense.

  Then he just kept shooting!

  When the Mosquito started the third round of dives, the players had completely occupied Street 67 and joined the cattle and horse team under the overpass.

  More than 20 heavily modified KV-1 exoskeletons led the way in front, with machine guns in their hands spewing flames and striding forward.

  They are not only the pioneers of firepower, but also mobile ammunition boxes, and even a steel wall!

  Five or six players followed behind them in a group, some holding rifles, some carrying Panzerfaust rocket launchers, and light and heavy cavalry guns used to suppress high-armor units.

  With the support of artillery, armor and air power, A Company’s offensive was unstoppable!

  In addition, a ten-man team of flamethrowers followed behind A Company.

  They were wearing heavy protective clothing and gas masks. The flamethrowers on their backs were Mosquito’s masterpiece – “Hellfire 1.0”!

  However, these flamethrowers did not join the battle on the front line.

  The burning gnawers would become more dangerous. Facing dense clusters of alien species, incendiary bombs were a good choice, but Molotov cocktails and flamethrowers were definitely not.

  The more than 30 liters of fuel on their backs were really used to clear fixed targets.

  For example, the mother nest!

  Without the control of the “node creatures”, the gnawers on the street became a mess. The overly dense number became a burden, and they were crowded together in a different pace.

  The streets were stained black by charred corpses and mucus.

  The 88mm shells that fell from time to time, in conjunction with the offensive of Company A, advanced all the way forward and quickly recovered a large area between 68th Street and 65th Street.

  Some alien species retreated to the clock tower on 65th Street at the call of the mother nest, but more stayed where they were and rushed to the players closest to them based on their biological instincts.

  Their movements were swift and fierce.

  But anyone can see that they are already at the end of their strength!

  65th Street.

  The fungal blanket covering the concrete floor quickly turned into charcoal under the baptism of flames.

  The hatcheries hidden in the shops along the street were destroyed one by one, and the players used Molotov cocktails and flamethrowers to destroy the rows of throbbing eggs.

  Soon, nearly 400 players from three companies completed the suppression of the main road of 65th Street. The burning flames and billowing smoke covered the ominous gray-green clouds. The

  azure power armor stood at the front line of the position. Chu Guang held the nitrogen power hammer in his hand and looked around at the messy battlefield around him.

  The full circulation system has been activated.

  Not to mention spores, even a grain of ash can’t float into his armor.

  A crawler ran towards him, but before it rushed to him, it was shot into a sieve by a group of awakened players with rifles.

  Looking at the beast lying on the ground struggling, Chu Guang casually pulled out the silver snake revolver hanging on his waist and shot it in the head with a bang, ending its life.

  Thinking about it, I really miss it.

  I remember that more than half a year ago, when I was just level 5, I took Ye Shi and Fang Chang, who were even more new than newbies, to Brown Farm to exchange things. A crawler almost wiped out the three of them.

  As for now…

  he didn’t even need to take action.

  Putting away the revolver, Chu Guang looked at the building with a giant clock not far away.

  The dark red fungal carpet has climbed to the third floor. The hyphae as thick as thighs are attached to the nearby buildings. The dark windows are pierced with a creepy scarlet.

  There should be the mother nest… Although compared with those of the same kind in the city center, it is still very young, even infantile.

  It’s hard to imagine.

  It took less than two weeks for it to grow into this appearance. If it is given a few more weeks, only God knows what will happen.

  Chu Guang waved his hand, signaling Company A, which had arrived under the building, to launch an attack.

  The strength players lined up, and dozens of 20mm light cavalry rifles took turns firing. In just one minute, they fired nearly a hundred high-explosive bombs and armor-piercing incendiary bombs, blasting the six tyrants guarding the door, along with the fungal blankets and concrete walls around them, into slag.

  Large areas of steel bars were exposed in front of the players.

  Chu Guang continued to issue orders, and the flamethrowers, who were ready to fight, lit the caps on the nozzles of the flamethrowers and began to move forward under the cover of other players.

  Glancing at the corpse on the ground, Canyon Mole on the Run muttered to himself.

  ”Sure enough…”

  Hearing his muttering, Edge Paddling glanced at him.

  ”Sure enough what?”

  Canyon Mole on the Run: “The mother nest’s control over the slime mold is not in the form of direct control, but is indirectly completed through the control of the node organisms. So as long as the node organisms are killed, the wave will naturally be reduced… until the final demise.”

  Edge Paddling: “…Isn’t that what I said?”

  Canyon Mole on the Run coughed dryly.

  ”I summarized it for you.”

  ”…”

  It’s okay after summarizing it.

  Edge Paddling was speechless and looked at the bell tower in front.

  There should be the command tower of the wave, the mother nest that breeds slime mold and spreads spores.

  A team of ten has already covered the flamethrowers and rushed in. I believe that it won’t be long before the whole street will be filled with the smell of roasted mushrooms.

  It’s over –

  is it?

  Just as he was thinking this, the sound of an explosion suddenly came from the bell tower, and a tongue of fire more than ten meters long rushed out of the door.

  Burning concrete blocks flew out one after another, and a figure several meters tall appeared in the billowing smoke. The flesh-red fungus blocks hung on the ground like a skirt, and the tentacles floated behind its head like wriggling snakes. When

  enemies meet, they are particularly jealous.

  Looking at the figure walking out of the billowing smoke, the fountain commander opened his eyes wide and pointed at the thing excitedly and shouted.

  ”That’s it! The queen!”

  ”Heavy infantry, follow me! Shield wall defense! Power system guns, change armor-piercing bullets, listen to my orders and prepare–”

  This time he put on the heavy cavalry exoskeleton, and the rigid armor was armed from toes to hair. It would not be given for nothing again.

  The queen let out a shrill roar, and behind her tall body, dozens of tentacles shot out like lightning, piercing the players standing outside the clock tower.

  Twenty KV-1 exoskeletons stepped forward together, set up the steel plates in their hands, and protected the teammates behind them.

  The tentacles like whips came over, and there was a dull sound of “Duang” on the steel plates!

  Many people swayed slightly and moved their feet back an inch, but they were not actually hurt by the tentacles.

  The spring standing on the front line was slightly stunned, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

  Always feel…

  a little weak?

  At this moment, a piercing scream came from the sky, followed by a series of dense rains of fire.

  The glider spewing flames dived, and the bullets swept from the stairs to the top of the queen’s head.

  Although the 7mm bullets failed to penetrate the keratin armor attached to the surface of the queen, they tore the tentacles extending from its back into pieces.

  Strings of blood mist and dust exploded!

  The tentacle that was more than ten meters long broke into pieces, lying on the ground twisting and struggling like a cut earthworm, and the black blood at the broken end gushed out like a spring, soaking the broken steps in an instant.

  The players who were preparing for the BOSS battle were shocked when they saw this scene.

  What the hell? !

  Is this thing so weak?

  Not only the fountain and the players on the front line were waiting in full battle array, but Chu Guang, who had just set up his Gauss rifle, was also stunned.

  Originally, I thought that this thing dared to take the initiative to attack, and it had some trump cards in its hand, but I didn’t expect it to be a complete death struggle.

  The queen, whose weakness was severely damaged, let out a painful roar, and her huge body began to move backwards.

  The fungal carpet attached to the building was also squirming restlessly, and scarlet eggs fell on the steps, and unhatched fruiting bodies emerged from them one after another.

  Some of them were missing hands, some were missing legs, or simply had no lower body, only a head and a mouth hanging on their necks.

  They roared and rushed towards the players.

  This seemed to be the last charge.

  ”Fire!”

  The fountain suddenly waved his right hand forward.

  Dozens of rifles and light machine guns released firepower at the same time, instantly tearing these unhatched gnawers into pieces.

  The players carrying light and heavy lances were about to rush up the stairs, stepping on the corpses on the ground, to chase the queen who had retreated into the nest.

  However, at this moment, the piercing scream rushed in front of them.

  Indistinctly,

  the battlefield atmosphere group that rushed to the front heard a familiar strange cry.

  ”Hahahaha!”

  ”Heads! Mine!”

  The diving glider plunged into the main entrance of the bell tower, and with the high-speed rotating propeller, the nose of the plane hit the queen’s chest straight.

  The huge inertia pressed the several-meter-tall body to the ground and dragged forward for several meters. The queen, whose chest was stirred by the propeller, let out a painful roar.

  However, soon, the flames of the explosion engulfed the glider and the queen who fell to the ground.

  The heat wave of the explosion blew on my face.

  The flying wood fragments knocked the helmet with a bang. I, who was wearing a KV-1, finally came to my senses and couldn’t help swallowing.

  ”Isn’t solid hydrogen safe…”

  He heard that the solid hydrogen battery in the setting is not made of pure solid hydrogen as raw material, and there are some intermediate substances in it, which will make the battery less likely to explode.

  It is precisely because of this that the energy storage effect of solid hydrogen is slightly inferior to that of metallic hydrogen, but its use is wider than the latter.

  The battlefield atmosphere group stopped and was silent for a while, and gave an uncertain answer.

  ”…Maybe a detonator is inserted in the battery?”

  Or maybe explosives with delayed fuses are placed in the cabin.

  The battlefield guy didn’t think it was strange, but I was shocked and widened my eyes.

  ”Fuck… Is it that serious?!”

  Although it is a wooden plane, it is not cheap, right?

  At least the two Maxim machine guns are quite expensive. He has seen them in the NPC store, and each one costs thousands of silver coins!

  The commander of the spring wearing the “heavy cavalry” exoskeleton came from behind and glanced at the smoke-filled hall.

  ”Dead?”

  The battlefield atmosphere group nodded.

  ”He should be dead.”

  ”Let’s go in and take a look just to be on the safe side.” The Fountain Commander chuckled and patted his arm, “I’ll leave it to you.”

  The battlefield guy rolled his eyes, but didn’t say anything.

  The protection of the miner type I with welded steel plates is not weak, and it is only a little bit worse than the six-type “heavy cavalry” of the human alliance.

  Looking at the two teammates who were discussing calmly, I couldn’t help but say.

  ”Wait, why aren’t you surprised at all?”

  Fountain Commander and Edge Water heard this, and their eyes were a little subtle.

  ”After all, it’s a mosquito…”

  ”Well… If all the functions on the plane are useful, I will find it strange.”

  I’m the darkest: “…”

  …

  [Announcement to the whole server: “The Queen” was killed by “WC really has mosquitoes” for the first time! ]

  [Since the player chose to make it public, this achievement will be recorded in the Hall of Fame! ]

  [Mission: Decisive moment (completed)]

  [We defeated the wave, and the victory belongs to us! ]

  Whether it is online or offline players, they all saw this series of pop-up windows from VM or the official website at the same time.

  With the defeat of the “level BOSS”, this new mother nest also lost the last layer of protection It’s barrier, completely exposed to the players.

  The sky in the distance was already turning pale.

  Barrels of fuel were sent into the bell tower.

  The fire soon started.

  The scorching flames boiled in the mother nest, and together with the hot smoke, they engulfed the egg masses that were beating on the fungal blanket, as well as the tentacles that transported nutrients and organic matter.

  In the smoke and fire, large pieces of fungal blanket fell from the walls of the bell tower.

  Even if the remaining fuel might not be enough to completely burn these thick fungal blankets, they would soon die without supply.

  Or degenerate into “harmless” bacterial plaques.

  The players below the bell tower cheered in victory.

  Since the launch of “Wasteland OL”, this is the first battle of a thousand people.

  Many people stood in front of the burning bell tower to take pictures with their comrades, and headphones that can take pictures were passed from player to player.

  Looking at the burning bell tower on the street covered with morning light, the shock Chu Guang felt in his heart was far stronger than that of the players.

  They defeated the wave!

  There is nothing in this city that can threaten their survival anymore, which means that they have truly established a foothold in the northern suburbs of Qingquan City.

  The Boulder City located on the West Third Ring Road may be a potential threat, but for now, they have not shown obvious hostility.

  Perhaps the south is the core of their interests.

  Chu Guang raised his eyes to the north, with surging emotions surging in his heart.

  If neither the Boulder City nor the Great Rift Valley intends to end the turmoil in the River Valley Province, then this matter is destined to be accomplished by him.

  At this moment, a light blue window appeared in Chu Guang’s field of vision.

  [The wave will end within 7 days.]

  [Congratulations, young manager…]
