Wu Qi and his party left the tent of Mo Li and other guards and circled the vast mining area. They had previously chosen a high point to install their tent.
It is not close to Molly's camp, and the movement on the other side can be observed at any time. It is also close to the heavy mining equipment in the center of the mining area, ensuring that the plague species can attack the mining area from the mountains or canyons, and they can rush there as soon as possible. arrive.
Gao Yuan stood outside the camp, holding his RT-20 with both arms flat. The long, thick muzzle symbolizing violence was aimed at the dense mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest from every corner of the mining area to the mountains. He is measuring distances and heights in various directions, and trying out his eyesight for sniping in different environments.
Guo Bobo and Chris set up a temporary home outside the camp, and July quietly crouched in the corner of the camp without disturbing them. Wu Qi was neither outside nor outside the camp. He was patrolling near the mining area, memorizing the terrain of the larger area while watching the miners operating heavy machinery.
A producer controlled the mining machine and advanced into the mining rock area. When the mining machine touched the rock surface, it made a harsh vibration. That sound is so unbelievable that it is very unbearable when you first hear it. It takes a long time to get used to it.
The source of the noise was not that one place. Multiple noises from multiple mining machines operating at the same time surrounded the entire mining area, seriously affecting Wu Qi's keen hearing. In the case of multiple shock waves in the east of the surface rock surface, Wu Qi could not judge through the ground hearing whether there were any quietly approaching plague species in the surrounding environment, but there must be a certain number of sounds and vibrations of the plague species spreading through the earth. , was attracted here.
When the mining machine started, or when the rest time for the producers and the guards in the mining area ended, Molly and other guards walked out of the battalion commander one after another, took the electromagnetic action rifle hanging on their chest, and put it in their legs. , spread out and patrolled around. Eight soldiers were distributed close to the mountains and forests to patrol the outside of the mining area. Five soldiers were responsible for mobile support in the outer circle of the mining area. Two soldiers were on the top of the canyon as lookouts and reconnaissance in the direction of the wasteland.
"Hey, new guy!" Mo Li slowly walked up to Wu Qi and shouted.
"Captain Moli, what's your plan?" Wu Qi said calmly.
"My teammates and I, except for the sniper leg, went into the forest to be on guard against the plague species that could focus on one point in groups." Moli ordered.
Wu Qi glanced at the edge of the mountain forest. The place where the plants were blocking the time was at least 2 meters vertically and about 5 meters horizontally away from the edge of the mining area. Is it the "buffer zone" dug out during the initial construction of the mining area? It effectively prevents plague species from gathering in a corner of the defense line and breaking through with arrows to harm producers or destroy equipment.
People's vision in the forest will be blocked by various vegetation, and the plague species can make the best use of the forest vehicle head realm to suppress the sound. It will be quite dangerous to enter. But that kind of action still has certain tactical significance, just like the ancient army that defended the city did not guard the city behind closed doors, but took the initiative to open the city gates and send troops to fight the enemy on the plains.
"Okay." Wu Qi agreed calmly, returned to the camp to communicate with everyone, and then led Chris and Qiyue across the mining area and into the forest in the northwest.
The main tone of the outside of the forest is dark green, and the light from the east above the head is much weaker than that of the mining area with a wide view. Early spring is the time when the sea of tree crowns is the sparsest, but since a large part of the forests here are coniferous forests, the sea of tree crowns and tree crowns is not that sparse. In the forest where Wu Qi once stayed, it would never be like that. appearance.
The trouser legs of the red uniform collided with the leaves of the shrubs, making rustling sounds from time to time. Wu Qi was in front, Chris was on the right, and Little Red Fox was on the left, spreading out in a fan-shaped formation.
Suddenly a small brown snake fell from the sky and landed on Chris's shoulder. The little snake moved quickly, opened its small mouth and took a bite of Chris's neck. Bunao Chris reacted quickly, grabbed seven inches of the little snake, and instantly crushed that part into a flat ball of flesh.
Sporadic snake blood flowed out from the seven-inch wound and the little snake's mouth, staining the red soldier's uniform. Chris threw the little snake's body with its legs into the bushes not far away, and shook his legs. Covered in blood.
"The snakes in the forest are generally small snakes and are not easy to be found, so be careful." Wu Qi reminded.
"No, Master."
The little snake that attacked Chris was a short and small episode that was quickly forgotten by everyone. As they explored further and further into the forest, the noise from the mining machines in the mining area gradually became quieter.
Wu Qi spread out the perception network and devoted part of his mind to listening to the voice of the east of the land. He heard some movement in the forest to the northeast, but it was too far away. By the time they arrived at the scene, the person who caused the movement might have broken into the edge of the mining area.
"Master, have you heard the plague seeds?"
"It's some kind of animal with four legs on the ground. It runs a bit like a wolf. If they can't catch up, let the guards outside the mining area deal with it."
It is the duty of Wu Qi and others to discover in advance the plague species that are organized to attack the mining area. If Lu Zai does not encounter them, their role will be to reduce the security pressure on the escort team. As long as they don't fire signal flares, the escort can stop focusing on the forest in the northwest, and the escort in charge of maneuver can easily withdraw to support.
Wu Qi thought to himself, if the northeast direction of the forest is not the first batch of plague species close to the mining area, the second and third batches should be almost there soon.
A minute after Wu Qi heard the movement on the ground, a large number of flying bird shadows suddenly appeared in the sky in the forest near the northeastern edge of the mining area. The restlessness of the birds means that there is a bigger movement there. Should the escort team and the plague species face each other and start a battle
At that time, a heavy sound sounded 5 meters away, and Wu Qi suddenly turned his head; at the same moment, Qiyue lowered his center of gravity, assumed a fierce posture, and roared fiercely in the direction Wu Qi was looking.
A standing giant bear appeared deep in the forest! The giant bear is 3 meters tall, with strong and unusually long limbs. It is covered with thick and long black hair. There is a 40 cm long scar on the left half of its body. The hair near the scar is sparse, as if it is bald.
The giant bear's eyes are completely black, with the iris and red eyes blended into one, like a dark, slimy quagmire. When light penetrates into it, it sinks into a bottomless place, which is eerie and terrifying.
Cloudy eyes are one of the characteristics of the plague species with lower intelligence. However, the lower intelligence does not mean that it is weak.
Wu Qidong consciously stretched his legs to his back and grasped the handle of the long knife. After a second thought, he gave up using the long knife to quickly resolve the battle, and instead raised the electromagnetic rifle hanging on his chest.
