A hundred meters away from this defensive position, a large number of construction machinery and container-type heavy-duty trucks were working intensively around a building.
One of the walls of the building had been violently broken open, revealing rows of huge servers arranged like soldiers. When Luo Yuan looked here, a server happened to be roughly tied up with iron ropes by several soldiers, and was immediately tied up. The crane lifts it and puts it into the container.
Luo Yuan quickly entered the defensive position. It was said to be a defensive position, but in fact it was built with a few boulders and a large number of light and medium weapons set up on it to form a crude temporary defense line.
"Comrade Xiao Fei, the manpower is too small. Why did a Wuzhi come? The 203mm caliber artillery shells I want are not enough!" A man with a blackened beard and a scraggly beard shook hands vigorously with the lieutenant. He shook hands and complained.
"Comrade Commander Xia Qiangxia, please don't take advantage of it and be good. You don't know how much arms inventory there is. Don't worry about the artillery shells. It's good to be able to send a weapon over. The tasks of other groups are also very tight. Now In addition to the basic defense force, the base has long been out of troops." The lieutenant who came with Luo Yuan gave him a hard blow and said unceremoniously, obviously they were very familiar with each other.
"Furthermore, I haven't introduced you to them yet. These are the evolvers among the survivors. They are all very powerful. Don't underestimate them." Xiao Fei said solemnly: "For example, Comrade Luo and Miss Mu Both are fifth-level evolvers, and Comrade Xie and Miss Wang are also fourth-level evolvers.”
Captain Xia was shocked and hurriedly came over to shake hands one by one: "It's great that you can come. These servers are so important to the reconstruction area. We must not give up as a last resort. However, I have something to say... "
He looked a little hesitant, not sure whether he should speak out. He knew very well that these survivors were very capable, but they also had strong personalities, and they might not be able to obey orders by then.
"Captain Xia, since we have been recruited, we are your soldiers, you don't have to worry about it! I don't understand the truth, but I also know that there are still eggs under the nest!" Luo Yuanyuan hesitated, but immediately understood. said.
The danger of this mission is unprecedented. If there is no unified command system and lack of discipline, it is very likely that we will not be able to survive this crisis. What's more, he also knows the importance of these servers to the reconstruction area and mankind, even if it is not For the sake of the mission, I have to save it no matter what.
The captain officer's eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted Luo Yuan on the shoulder hard: "Okay, but I also know that you have special operations, so it is not easy to form them with the special forces. It is better to be a reserve team. Where is the danger? Just support wherever you go.”
"Of course!" Luo Yuan said lightly.
Although Fatty Xie was dissatisfied with being represented, he did not dare to object. As for the other two, one Wang Shishi followed Luo Yuan's lead and the other was immersed in his own world, so naturally he would not say much.
"How is the situation now?" Xiao Fei asked.
"Except for a fierce conflict an hour ago, the situation has basically been calm since then, but it won't last long. Shadow discovered that a large number of sea beasts are coming towards the land." Captain Xia said with a solemn expression.
"These sea beasts are full and full. They don't want to wait for the good ocean, so why come to land!" Xiao Fei kicked a stone away and said with a depressed look on his face: "Where is the water level now?"
"According to the information from the investigation, we have arrived at the industrial park, about five kilometers away from here. As for the reason for these sea beasts, we have already guessed. You haven't been on a mission in the past few days, so I'm afraid you haven't noticed. Now the water surface is covered with grass. The mutated seaweed looks like a carpet, and even tanks can’t get past it.”
"Eutrophic pollution!" Luo Yuan said with a thought in his heart.
"Yes, a large amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and organic matter left by feces, corrosives and various daily chemical products in the city flow into the sea water, causing the nearby seaweed to grow wildly and attracting a large amount of plankton to gather. Big fish eat small fish, and eventually sea monsters Let’s all join in this carnival,” Captain Xia said.
Luo Yuan's heart became heavy and his face looked a little ugly.
At this time, the surrounding air seemed to surge, as if a large amount of air was expelled by a mysterious force, and the next moment a figure suddenly appeared.
This scene was so sudden that Luo Yuan was so frightened that his scalp felt like an electric shock, and his eyes were wide open. Between the lightning and flint, his body instinctively jumped like lightning, and in an instant he crossed six or seven meters away, and drew out his sword. , and saw the flash of the sword, and the blade was already leaning against the opponent's throat.
If Luo Yuan hadn't reacted at the last moment and stopped his murderous intention, the other party would have been killed long ago.
However, the other party was so frightened that his face turned pale and he did not dare to move.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, he is one of our own!" Captain Xia said loudly. This scene happened so fast that his retinas didn't react until now: "He is the shadow I just said, put down the knife, put down the knife quickly."
Only then did Luo Yuan realize that he had made an mistake. The other party was wearing a military uniform and his face was covered in camouflage. He looked like a soldier. He quickly withdrew his saber and said with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I was scared when you showed up." I jumped, I was overreacting!"
"It's okay! It's okay!" The evolver named Shadow seemed to be not good at dealing with people and said a little shyly. But it was obviously not like he said it was okay. He was panting violently. The experience just now almost made him walk at the gate of hell. He is still frightened and can't catch his breath.
Everyone looked at this person with some curiosity. The scene just now was so magical, very similar to the teleportation in movies and novels.
At this time, Shadow took a deep breath and said loudly: "Report to the company commander, there are three mutant beasts about level 4 to 5 seven kilometers ahead, coming towards this way, please be prepared."
Everyone's expressions changed. Captain Xia quickly pressed the walkie-talkie headset, turned around and quickly issued a series of orders.
After a while, the Wuzhi quickly took off and flew into the distance.
Then, the shadow disappeared silently, and the next moment it appeared one kilometer ahead. After a few times, it completely disappeared from sight, and no one knew where to go to investigate.
A few minutes later, there was a huge noise in the distance and thick smoke rising into the sky, which could be clearly seen even here.
Voices kept coming from the intercom, and it was obvious that the fighting there was extremely fierce.
"Successfully killed a small one, but it's not good, it will spray water... I'm going to pull it up, I'm going to pull it up... It was so dangerous... I almost got killed."
"Huhu..." The other party gasped violently, as if he was very frightened: "Son of a bitch, let me show you how powerful you are... Damn it, the missile was avoided... it hit successfully... and he's not dead yet..."
"Damn it, five more are here... The ammunition is already low, we need to go back to the base to replenish it... We are about to return..."
The armed helicopter soon appeared in sight, and then flew directly towards the military base without stopping.
"Damn it!" Captain Xia's face was gloomy. He pressed the intercom headset and ordered: "All artillery is ready to fire."
"clear!"
"clear!"
These two metal behemoths, which were ten meters long, three meters wide and three meters high, began to move the barrels, and the hydraulic sliding made a metallic sound.
A tense atmosphere filled the air.
After a while, a shocking roar like a whistle came from the distance, and then the ground shook slightly.
Not long after, two huge and ferocious sea beasts slowly appeared in everyone's sight. Their skin was blue and black, and their bodies looked like turtles without their shells. There were also raised yellow spots on the surface about half a meter in diameter. .
Judging from the wounds on their bodies, they had already suffered the baptism of ammunition from armed helicopters. Their whole bodies were black and red, with large and small blood puddles everywhere, and blood dripped all over the ground along the way.
However, this kind of wound, which was no more than the size of a round table, was nothing to this giant beast that was more than 20 meters long and more than ten meters high.
Luo Yuan finally understood why it was necessary to call for support here. These sea beasts were huge in size. If ordinary shells did not hit the vital points, they would still have strong combat effectiveness except leaving an insignificant blood pit.
"Let it get closer, get ready to shoot, get ready to shoot... fire!" Captain Xia ordered loudly when he saw that the target was already close to one kilometer away. Modern artillery has an extremely long range, and it is no problem to hit five, six kilometers or even ten kilometers, but its accuracy has plummeted, and it also makes the opponent react, basically it can only hit the air, and it is difficult to hit. Mutated beasts are not enemies with modern weapons. The closer they are to fight, the more powerful the artillery can be.
The next moment, the long barrels of the two self-propelled guns suddenly spurted out two long flames more than three meters long, and at the same time, the barrels suddenly contracted.
"boom!"
The two cone-shaped cannonballs let out a sharp roar that cut through the air, and shot forward at high speed. One of them hit the head of one of them instantly. The kinetic energy and explosion it generated directly caused the powerful sea beast's head to rapidly deform. It was shattered, then blown to pieces, and fell heavily to the ground.
Another one also hit the opponent's leg hard, tearing open a terrible wound. He screamed in pain and his huge body began to roll.
In order to adapt to the needs of modern warfare, modern artillery has become more and more powerful in addition to accuracy. In particular, these two artillery pieces are obviously 203mm caliber, which is much more powerful than short-range missiles.
In just one attack, one of the two powerful sea beasts was killed and the other injured.
Luo Yuanyuan hadn't seen Platoon Commander Xia give an order for a long time, so he asked doubtfully: "Why don't you shoot anymore?"
"There are not many shells left." Platoon Leader Xia said with a wry smile.
Resources in the reconstruction area are tight, and the surrounding area is not a safe place. Danger occurs all the time. Ammunition is needed almost everywhere, and the supply is extremely tight. Naturally, they will not be equipped with too much ammunition. Coupled with the consumption of defending against the great migration of beasts in Shanghai in the past few days, the ammunition inventory is close to depletion. Logically speaking, the personnel left behind at the military base should have returned. It's just that the migration of the beast tide has made this place safer than ever before, so the base thought that before leaving, it was going to do a big search and try to find as many things as possible, but it didn't expect to encounter such a thing.
Luo Yuan was shocked and asked quickly: "How many more are there?"
"There are only eight 203mm caliber artillery shells, there are still thirty mortar shells, and there are five boxes of machine gun shells!" Captain Xia said.
Xiao Fei ran over and looked at the construction site over there. After he came back, he estimated the time and said, "If the situation does not worsen, it should be enough. In fact, we only need to hold on for about three to five hours."
Luo Yuan felt a little bitter in his mouth. It would be great if the D-level mission could really be completed so smoothly.
