Chapter 603: A Meat Grinder-like Battlefield
Chapter 603: A battlefield like a meat grinder
A bomber formation consisting of twelve “Dragonfly” transport planes flew over the bombing area marked on the map.
The experienced pig brother was still the leader, driving the lead plane in front, and the other eleven wingmen followed in formation.
The flight parameters such as altitude, speed, entry angle, wind speed, etc. were substituted into the formula to calculate the approximate bombing distance. The lead plane sent a bombing signal to each wingman, and then opened the hatch. The bombardier slid the bombs installed on the rails down one by one.
Although using transport planes to move bombs is a bit random in various senses, the lack of accuracy can be made up for by quantity.
One by one, aerial bombs fell like dumplings into the urban area of the marked area, and soon there were clusters of orange-red flames between the abandoned roads and high-rise buildings.
Most of the high-rise buildings left over from the prosperous era were extremely solid.
Even after two hundred years of weathering, after a round of carpet bombing, most buildings still maintained their main structures intact.
There was only one hundred-meter-high building, which was probably hit by an aerial bomb on the load-bearing structure, and began to slowly collapse from one of the middle floors to the north.
Looking at the earth-shattering scene, and the rolling dust that blew away the haze and floated hundreds of meters, Brother Bing and Huo Zi, who was standing by the cabin window, couldn’t help but smack his lips.
”Oh my god… is it necessary to deal with a sniper?”
Although this is also the practice in reality, most of the time, a guided missile is thrown over, or a few grenades are fired.
It is rare to spend such a huge amount of money to send a bomber formation to deal with a sniper.
This is a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
Unprofessional Anti-Man laughed and snorted, and teased in the communication channel.
”Use your little brain and think carefully, will mutants use snipers to shoot black guns? And there is such a thick fog.”
Brother Bing and Huo Zi slapped his head.
”Hiss… Now that you put it like that, I fucking understand.”
He subconsciously brought himself into reality. Of course, it’s impossible to do that in reality, but this is a game after all.
The guys hiding nearby and making small moves are obviously the little rats of the Torch Church. No matter what tricks they are up to, a slap on them is the right thing to do.
The only thing that surprised him was that he didn’t expect the NPC’s thinking to be so clear.
The communication channel was filled with the chatter of players on other planes.
”The fog is too thick, and we can’t see the situation on the ground at all.”
”Can we blow that guy to death?”
”Then we have to ask the brothers on the ground to open their eyes and look for him!” Unprofessional Fan Man laughed, tilted the joystick, and led the bomber formation back to the direction of the ground airport.
After a pause, he continued.
”Let’s think about how to land first.”
Landing in fog is not a difficult task for him, but it’s another story for those rookies.
I hope that by then we can crash less planes.
I hope the ground crew won’t curse…
…
The building hundreds of meters high was broken in the middle. From the sky, it was just a piece of tofu that was split in half. However,
from the ground, it was a square mountain.
Even though the war zone was hundreds of meters away, the sand and stones that were blown away still blew over the heads of the warring parties and sprinkled down like raindrops. The
violent airflow blew away the spore clouds floating in the air for a while.
The eyes of the mutant soldiers were wide open, looking at the direction of the collapsed building, and they opened their mouths unconsciously, and they didn’t even notice that they had eaten a mouthful of dust.
What happened there? !
The players were the same. They even stopped firing for a while, looking at the shocking scene and couldn’t help but exclaimed “Fuck it”.
”… Awesome, this would be a CG bunker!”
”666!”
”It’s still a bunker!” Shuke, who was driving a helicopter, said with a smile while changing the bullets for his machine gun, “Let’s think about how to get through this level first!”
Beta, who was driving a toy car, was lying next to him.
This guy probably thought that it would be okay in such a thick fog, so he planned to run over and show off his skills to fix the car, but he was shot in the head.
He hurried forward to pull the man back, but his brain was already broken, and he probably sat at home with a confused face and didn’t know what happened.
The Chimera armored vehicle broke down in the middle of the road and continued to fire at the mutants’ positions to provide suppressive firepower.
However, the mutants also learned their lesson and no longer confronted them head-on, but hid in the alleys on both sides of the street and infiltrated and surrounded them from both sides.
”By the way, why didn’t the guys driving the plane help us bomb here too?” After wiping the dust off his face, Shrimp Pig Heart cursed.
Shuke, who was driving the helicopter, rolled his eyes.
”Will you go to the forum and say bad things after the bombing?”
The brothers of the Death Corps squatted on the other side of the street. Hearing their shouting, they laughed and made a joke.
”Remember to ask Brother Mosquito to turn off friendly fire before dropping the bomb!”
”Hahaha!”
”Does this game have that function?”
Although they were trapped in a small road with no way forward or backward, the players who were guarding here did not seem to be nervous at all.
Since the bomber helped them get rid of the sniper in the distance, it means that the command has noticed their situation.
More support is on the way.
They just need to hold on until the reinforcements arrive.
The short rest was broken by a gunshot.
The two sides in the street fighting resumed the exchange of fire, and flashing tracers shuttled freely in the narrow streets.
Those green-skinned beasts were not really stupid after all. They finally paralyzed a fire-breathing iron box, so they naturally didn’t want to let this guy go easily.
A hundred-man team that was defeated from other fronts was quickly pulled here, and a group of mutants with roaring voices rushed towards it.
As long as they could tear a gap in the alliance’s offensive, they could save this defense line that was on the verge of collapse.
However, what was blocking them at the moment was not just a broken-down Chimera, but also an expanded hundred-man team of the Death Corps.
Although these guys’ equipment was not as good as that of the other corps, and their sequence levels were not outstanding, they were all fearless and tough characters.
And they were also masters of street fighting!
They all held a shotgun or submachine gun, and some held bolt-action rifles with bayonets, and fought hand-to-hand with mutant soldiers in the alley. The
mutant wielding a mallet had just smashed the head of an unlucky guy, but before he could taste the taste, his skull was opened by a guy holding a shotgun.
Other players wrestled with mutants and simply detonated the explosives on their bodies, and the two of them turned into a bloody rain in an instant.
Even mutants who lived a barbaric life of eating raw meat and drinking blood could not help but show a trace of fear in front of this barbaric fighting style.
These people are crazy!
The alley that was more than ten meters long was filled with broken limbs and corpses. The sticky blood and organs turned it into a dark swamp, and the gunfire showed no sign of stopping.
Just as the battle between the two sides became tense, rapid and compact artillery fire suddenly came from the other side of the street.
”Bang, bang, bang!”
Long and thick lightning bolts rushed towards the mutants rushing out of the alley, and the knotted muscles instantly exploded into pieces of fragmented blood rain.
”Roar!”
A mutant who was bloodthirsty roared and threw the ignited explosive pack in his hand towards the broken-down armored vehicle.
The bulging explosive pack was as big as a schoolbag, and the outside was coated with black tar, which could stick to the surface of the armor.
”Fuck!”
Shuke, who was driving the helicopter, burst into a swear word when he saw this, and threw away his machine gun without saying a word and rushed up, pulling off the explosive pack hanging on the surface of the armor and fell to the ground.
Almost at the moment he fell, the flames of the explosion tore him into pieces, and hit the armor of the armored vehicle with a clanging sound.
If it was allowed to stick to the surface of the armor and detonate, let alone a thin-skinned armored vehicle, even a tank would probably be destroyed.
The mutant’s eyes were almost bulging out, obviously he didn’t expect that in just three seconds, the iron box that was almost doomed to die could be saved.
But he didn’t have time to be surprised.
At the same time as the explosive pack exploded, a volley of armor-piercing incendiary bombs had already swept over, instantly shooting it into a pool of minced meat.
”Shuke!!!”
Seeing Shuke being blown to pieces, Shrimp Pig Heart howled in grief and anger, holding an assault rifle and rushing to the alley entrance to shoot, but unfortunately, it was a waste of time.
The mutants saw another armored vehicle coming and realized that they had lost their last chance.
The leading mutant howled first, and the minions who were lying behind the bunker and firing cursed and left the bunker and retreated.
Except for a few guys who were still fighting furiously, most of the green-skinned animals retreated to the southern defense line.
Seeing the mutants begin to retreat, Canyon Fleeing Mole stepped on the driver and asked the brother to drive his car in front of the broken-down Chimera, chasing the retreating mutant soldiers and firing two rounds. The
hatch behind the car opened outward, and the Elf King Fugui and Irena and his group jumped out from inside, dispersed to the bunkers on both sides of the armored vehicle and set up their guns.
One of the players who knew how to repair cars carried a toolbox and quickly ran to the side of the broken-down Chimera armored vehicle.
After moving the body of the engineer whose head was blown away, he opened the hood with tools and immediately started working with a wrench and a screwdriver.
Half of his body stuck out from the turret, the mole looked up at the bombed urban area and smacked his lips.
Then he looked at the player who was repairing the car and shouted.
”How is it? Can it be fixed?”
The busy player responded without turning his head.
”There’s a hole in the engine casing… I’ll give it a try. It should be fine to move, but the power may have to be cut in half.”
”Then I’ll leave this to you. Just make do with driving it back to the base.”
”OK!”
The player who was repairing the car raised the wrench in his hand and responded. The mole was about to retreat into the armored vehicle when the Death Corps’ Big Eyes came over with a rifle.
Before he could say anything, the Elf King Fugui suddenly opened his eyes wide as if he had seen a rare animal and said with a grin.
”Hey, Big Eyes?! Why are you here?”
Not hearing the hidden meaning, Big Eyes laughed and said boastfully.
”Tsk, I came here four days ago!”
Irena looked back with a funny face.
”I thought you were out of touch.”
”Get lost, you’re the one who’s out of touch! Your whole family is out of touch!”
Understanding the guy’s expression in an instant, Big Eyes rolled his eyes unhappily, then looked at the mole sitting on the turret and shouted.
”Brother, we have received a new mission here, and the remaining manpower is not enough. You can help me when you are free.”
Thinking that Brother Chicken probably doesn’t need me, and I am afraid that he is completely crazy and happy at this moment, Mole looked at him with interest and asked.
”What mission?”
”Support the brothers of the Burning Legion.”
”Do those monsters need support?”
”This is the mission brief. They encountered some trouble in the bombing area… We can’t contact them at present. The command center speculates that it is probably done by the people of the Torch Church.”
It seems that they bombed in vain.
Mole touched his chin.
”Is the communication blocked?”
Debt Big Eyes: “Probably.”
”Okay, I’ll call a few people to help.”
The index finger tapped his ear, and the mole calmly ordered while looking at the map on the VM.
”Attention, groups 2 and 4, there is a new mission, go to the location marked on the map immediately to gather. In addition, there is communication interference in the target area, activate the backup contact plan!”
The so-called backup contact plan is to keep an infantryman offline as a human radio station at all times, and use group chat to exchange intelligence on the front line.
Two neat replies soon came from the communication channel.
”Got it!”
The Mole, who hung up the call, did not hesitate at all. He gestured to Big Eyes to follow him, and then shouted to the brothers on the street.
”You stay here for a while. The brothers of the Death Corps and I will go to the side to take a look and come back.”
With his rifle fixed on the empty street ahead, the Elf King Fugui turned his back to the Chimera armored vehicle and shouted.
”Ok!”
…
At the same time.
Six hundred meters from the westernmost part of the front line, the streets that had been visited by bombers were in a mess, with black craters and cracked walls everywhere, and a few clusters of flames that had not yet been extinguished swaying on the twisted steel bars and concrete.
Several bloody corpses were stuck on the ground. Judging from their shapes, they should be alien species wandering in this block. They were swept into the explosion just now, and only these things were left.
Almost no organic organisms exposed outside the bunker survived.
After knocking open the broken metal door, the red tapir walked out of the ruins with black lines on his head. He greedily breathed in a breath of fresh air, but was choked by the more pungent smell of gunpowder and coughed violently twice.
”Damn, that bastard!”
Fortunately, he reacted quickly just now and quickly retreated to the stairwell with his partner to the sturdy structure, otherwise they would have almost died.
When he thought of this, he couldn’t help but want to scold the old man, but he only said half of his words and ran away.
Anyway, it’s not safe here anymore, we have to retreat to a safe area first…
The moment his right foot stepped on the street, a warning suddenly came to his mind, and the red tapir reflexively crouched and rolled over, hiding behind the concrete debris on the roadside.
Almost at the same time when he just hid behind the concrete debris, an arrow nailed where he was standing.
Seeing the arrow, the red tapir glanced at the corner of his mouth with disdain, but this mocking expression did not stay for 0.5 seconds before it solidified on his face.
He vaguely caught a glimpse of a faint red light from the corner of his eye!
”Fuck–”
There was no time to dodge, he only heard a drip, and the arrow instantly exploded into a ball of fire, and the raging shock wave wrapped with steel balls shot around. The
surging air wave hit the breastplate, and the red tapir, who was hit hard, felt his internal organs trembling.
Even with the protection of the exoskeleton, he was still slightly injured.
Without time to treat the wound caused by the fragments, he pulled out the smoke bomb and threw it at his feet, then staggered to another safer bunker.
He clicked the communication button on his helmet and roared in the communication channel.
”Tang He! Find the guy who shot the arrow for me! Tang He?”
There was no response in the communication channel.
Chi Mo’s face froze, and he immediately realized that it was that Alzu who did it, and he cursed.
”Damn old thing…”
That guy is probably planning to “release the dog”.
Those guys with underdeveloped cerebellums can’t distinguish between friends and enemies, and can only pick up movable objects and stuff them into their mouths at random.
He has to leave here as soon as possible!
On the other side, looking at the guy who dodged the fatal blow, Fang Chang’s face showed a hint of surprise, but it was just surprise.
Want to run?
”Haha, see where you run!”
At the same time after the bombing ended, he and Lao Bai, a total of 20 players, arrived in this area by helicopter and started searching.
Since the location of the target has been found, he will definitely not let this guy run away.
”Old White… the person is right in front of me. It is confirmed to be an apostle of the Torch Church. The location has been marked on the map. Old White?”
There was only the rustling sound of electricity in the communication channel.
Fang Chang’s expression was slightly solemn.
Communication blocked?
”Fuck!”
He cursed inwardly, took out another explosive arrow and put it on the bowstring of the Dawn Composite Bow, crouched down and pressed towards the bunker where the target was hiding.
The teammates nearby should have heard the sound of the exchange of fire and were rushing to this area.
He had to hurry before the apostle escaped.
Hold that guy back!
However, at this moment, a deafening roar penetrated the heavy fog, and gunshots came from the street not far away.
Fang Chang couldn’t help but stop his steps and looked over there suddenly, and then his pupils shrank into a dot.
He saw a fat giant standing in the middle of the street, with tentacles as thick as pythons on his right arm and a big hand made of steel on his left arm.
The flesh on its body was like a bunch of worms, twisting and expanding unconsciously, stirring up strange power in the gray-green mist. The
Killing Dagger, wielding two fists as big as iron pots, swung a punch fiercely and hit its chest, and the exhaust pipe on the shoulder blade also sprayed out a tail flame accelerated by nitrogen.
However, this destructive power that could overturn an armored vehicle only splashed circles of ripples on the meat mountain made of maggots.
The fat giant let out a dull wail, but did not step back.
Faintly, Fang Chang heard the strange cry of Brother Killing Dagger.
”What the hell?! What the hell is this thing–”
Before he could finish his words, a tentacle as fast as lightning hit his chest, hitting him like a baseball and flying out, and he fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness.
Fang Chang stared at the monster intently and couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.
”‘Butcher’…?”
No –
this thing is more bizarre than the fruiting body of the mutant slime mold in Qingquan City!
Not only is its size several times larger, but its destructive power has also increased by more than one order of magnitude! It is a bit like the evolutionary form in the previous wave.
Seeing that mountain of meat moving towards Brother Shabi, Fang Chang knew that he could not wait any longer, and shot an arrow at the monster’s face without hesitation.
The burst of fire exploded in the monster’s face, blowing its head into pieces and flying out.
Fang Chang was slightly stunned when he saw this.
His explosive arrow only had a few dozen grams of explosives, which was probably a little more than an ordinary fragmentation grenade.
When did it become so awesome?
Just as he expected, things were not as simple as he thought.
The monster whose head was blown off was like nothing happened, and its huge body did not even shake.
Then, the squirming pieces of flesh seemed to be controlled by some autonomous consciousness, and like crawling earthworms, they swarmed towards the shoulder of the meat mountain.
In less than ten seconds, an abstract head grew back on the empty shoulder. Looking closely at the debris that was blown away, it was not a skull fragment at all, but a bunch of maggot-like pieces of flesh.
Some of them were blown to pieces, but most of them were still alive.
They were left behind, twisting their broken bodies stubbornly and crawling towards the meat mountain, as if they wanted to become part of that body again.
Looking at this incredible scene, Fang Chang’s eyes widened.
What kind of outrageous black technology is this? !
And where did this guy come from? ! What made
his scalp tingle the most was not this –
the pair of empty eyes looked at him.
Although they were dozens of meters away and separated by a thick gray-green fog, Fang Chang could clearly feel that he had successfully drawn away the hatred of the BOSS.
The tentacles that wriggled like waves were like seaweed floating in a submarine, but he had seen how fast that thing moved.
The brother Sha Bi who was hit has not yet climbed up!
”Another BOSS battle…”
Fang Chang’s eyes gradually ignited with fighting spirit, and he took out another arrow with an orange label from the quiver and put it on the bowstring of the mechanical compound bow.
It was a burning arrow concentrated with solid hydrogen and high-performance kerosene, which could easily create a fire field several meters wide on the ground.
Since explosions don’t work –
let’s use fire!
…
In a building hundreds of meters away from the bombing area, Alzu, who had changed his position, looked at the bustling city with an expressionless face, and suddenly a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He didn’t expect that he could stop the most elite troops of the alliance with just one servant, not to mention that those guys were from the Burning Legion.
However, it was more than enough to create some chaos to help the idiot of the Inquisition escape.
Although he didn’t like those two idiots who were more trouble than help, it would be a trouble for him if they were caught alive instead of dying in the bombing.
I hope they can learn a little lesson from this failure and restrain their strong self-confidence a little.
Their enemies are not easy to deal with, and they are completely different from those stupid natives.
The Shelter No. 404, which he had never heard of, might be more dangerous than the enterprise and the academy.
A year ago, the idiots of the Inquisition should have understood this truth.
At this time, footsteps came from behind him.
An old man with a hunched body and wrinkles on his face walked behind him and stopped.
The old man’s skin was dark green, and he was wearing a master of ceremonies robe with strange patterns.
From his appearance, you can tell that he is a mutant.
However, no one can guess how long he has lived just by looking at his appearance.
Looking at Alzu’s back, he sighed softly, lowered his eyebrows and said.
”For some reason, the people of the Alliance are endless, and our tribe has suffered heavy casualties. If this continues, we may lose this war.”
Alzu looked back at the old mutant, stared at the turbid eyes, and suddenly spoke.
”Gomo.”
”What’s wrong?”
”Do you want to restore the glory of Singularity City?”
The voice was a little bewitching.
Gomo frowned slightly, then stretched his brows and said softly.
”I dream about it.”
”Then persuade your children for me.”
Alzu withdrew his gaze from his face, continued to look at the foggy city in the distance, squinted his eyes slightly, and continued.
”Let him hold on for a little while longer.”
”Soon, the Son of God will grant him power comparable to that of a god.”
