The moment Liang Xian woke up, he realized that he was enjoying the treatment of having his knees rest on his head, so he turned his face and rubbed it on Tan Yan's thigh, enjoying this moment of warmth.
They haven't seen each other for a long time since Tan Yan stopped going to the front line. Liang Xian told himself that this was to protect Tan Yan and let him have a good rest, but he still felt a little wronged, a little missing, and a little sweet in his heart.
Seeing that Liang Xian had woken up, Tan Yan was not in a hurry to let him go into battle again. Qiu Qizhen was a very good commander. He successfully resolved several dangers along the way.
After killing the big mosquitoes that liked to come out at night, they encountered frogs living in the swamp not long after they moved forward.
This is not an ordinary frog, it can even be called a red frog or a blood frog. Compared to mosquitoes that grow to the size of a fist, these blood frogs are pitifully small. Each one is only the size of a fingernail, but they have a strong jumping ability. Their well-developed hind legs allow them to jump more than ten meters high, and they are very flexible, so it is impossible for bullets to hit them.
They jumped onto the hovercraft and bit some ordinary people. The blood frogs are poisonous, and the people bitten by them are currently in a coma and have a high fever. Fortunately, the serum carried this time is effective against this poison. After the serum was injected, the fever of the poisoned people subsided. Currently, they are a little weak and fell asleep on the hovercraft.
While fighting the blood frogs, Qiu Qi quickly discovered that they preferred to attack injured and bleeding people, and concluded that the blood frogs would be attracted to blood.
So several metal-type mutants drove a hovercraft alone, took off their shirts, and made several cuts on their bodies, letting the blood flow out to attract blood frogs.
After most of the blood frogs were led to the small hovercraft, the thick-skinned mutants immediately covered their skin with metal and held their breath. The defensive mutants trapped the small hovercraft with a protective wall, and Qiu Qizheng ordered people to throw incendiary bombs into the protective wall.
After the fire, several metal-type mutants had been burned black all over. Now they could only lie on the boat with the wounded, unable to continue fighting.
Fire is effective against most creatures in the swamp, but the incendiary bullets and flame wooden magazines they carried have been used up. There are only nine fire-type mutants, most of whom have lost their combat effectiveness, so fire attacks can no longer be used.
After listening to Tan Yan's words, Liang Xian knew that he could not stay any longer. He immediately jumped up and, while no one was paying attention, quickly kissed Tan Yan on the face.
"How far are we from our destination?" Liang Xian asked Qiu Qizhen seriously, as if the person he had just kissed was not him.
Tan Yan touched the place where he was kissed and smiled.
"We have been advancing slowly for two hours, and we are still 30 kilometers away from our destination," Qiu Qizheng looked tired, but his eyes were bright. "The destination should be at the end of this swamp, and we will be there soon."
Liang Xian said solemnly: "Don't take it lightly. I feel that the lord in this environment has not appeared yet. Now we have run out of ammunition and food, and there are only 127 psychics left who can fight. We may not be able to survive the last 30 kilometers. Don't think about relying on Tan Yan and Xiaolu. This is our battle."
"Yes!" Several team leaders saluted Liang Xian in unison.
In this battle, Liang Xian fully demonstrated his outstanding command ability and has established prestige in the superpower team.
After handing over the command with Qiu Qizhen, Liang Xian took over the command again. He looked at Tu Zishi first. Yan Yongfeng had watched with his eyes open all night and even turned into a propeller to cut the water plants. After experiencing the blood frog battle, he covered his eyes and lay on the hovercraft. If he continued to fight, Yan Yongfeng would be blind.
"Did you find anything?" Liang Xian asked Tu Zishi.
Tu Zishi pinched his brows and said, "I haven't found anything yet, but I feel a little uneasy. Do you think there are some creatures that can block my predictive ability? Why can't I see the picture?"
"If evil consciousness can be blocked, it means that other creatures can block it. Nature is full of wonders, and the possibility of evolution is infinite. We can even see snakes about to turn into dragons, so what is impossible?" Liang Xian said.
"That's right," Tu Zishi nodded, "What kind of creature could be able to stop my foresight?"
"Not sure," Liang Xian shook his head, "but there are a few things we can be sure of. Since it blocked your ability, it means we will be attacked. The attack must be launched from a place we can't see or it is difficult to detect. Now the sun is shining, and the surroundings are flat, and there is nothing blocking our vision... In other words, either the attack comes from the swamp, or something will happen to affect our vision."
Soon after Liang Xian finished speaking, fog began to form in the swamp. The fog came very quickly, and in less than ten minutes it enveloped everyone, with visibility less than ten meters.
The sudden appearance of fog made the ordinary people on the boat very panicked. Fortunately, after experiencing two consecutive environments, they were still able to remain calm and looked at Liang Xian and the supernatural warriors nervously.
"Will it be useful if fog is created?" Liang Xian sneered and called Qiu Qizhen over.
There were still five wind-type ability users who could fight. Qiu Qizhen combined the strength of the five people to create a whirlwind with the hovercraft as the center, blowing away the fog.
With the current strength of the Superpower Team, it is actually impossible for a wind-type superpower to stir up such a strong wind. However, Qiu Qizheng's existence makes up for the shortcomings of the Superpower Team, and can gather the strength of many people to make the impossible possible.
Liang Xian's timing was just right. The moment the fog dispersed, everyone saw a huge figure gradually disappearing twenty meters ahead of the team.
"What is this? Why did it disappear?" Asan asked with a frown.
"It should be some kind of creature with mimicry ability," Liang Xian frowned and said, "It originally planned to use the fog to get close to us, but we didn't expect that we could disperse the fog so quickly, and it was discovered before it could mimic. But it made up for this mistake in time and disappeared quickly, which means that its mimicry ability is very strong. If it can travel in the swamp and attack under the boat..."
He immediately said, "Drain the water from the swamp below us!"
The earth-type psychics cooperated with the water-type psychics, one pumping water while the other hardening it, and the land below the hovercraft quickly changed from swamp to solid land. The psychic team was not satisfied with the ground below, but followed Liang Xian's instructions to spread out in all directions.
Sure enough, when the hardening expanded to about ten meters, the mud at the three o'clock direction in the right front was splashed. It seemed that some kind of creature was moving under the ground. It was originally moving freely in the mud, but because the water was drained and the land was hardened, it was difficult to move forward. In anger, it hit the ground and splashed soil.
"No matter how many shells you have left, there's no need to aim, just shoot there together!" Liang Xian gave the order, pointing to the place where the earth was flying.
Aunt Yang's space had long been out of stock, and the soldiers only had the ammunition they carried on their bodies. The 200 ordinary people who were protected were not to be outdone. Most of them were special forces soldiers, and they also carried a lot of weapons. They didn't have as many attack methods as the superpowers, but they could still use weapons to assist in the attack.
At once, the artillery fire was dense, all hitting the creature whose appearance could not be seen clearly, but strangely, they only saw the bullet shells being bounced away, but could not hear the creature's cry.
"Either it has no sound system, or our attacks can't hurt it at all. If such intensive artillery fire can't cause substantial damage to it, then..." Liang Xian couldn't help but look back at Tan Yan.
Tan Yan sat quietly in the corner of the hovercraft, holding a sniper rifle in his hand, and did not shoot with everyone. He also kept a few bullets just in case.
Liang Xian couldn't help but slap himself. At this time, he didn't think about how to solve the problem, but to rely on Tan Yan. This wouldn't work.
"Stop!" He made a few gestures and the artillery fire stopped immediately. Several people wearing tight-fitting clothes with special metal protection on key parts leaned against Liang Xian.
"Snipers, assist according to the situation!" Liang Xian said as he rushed forward with the soldiers.
These superpowered warriors had not taken action in the previous battles, and they were conserving their physical strength. Their superpowers were not conventional water, fire, wind, earth, etc., and they could not launch large-scale attack moves. They were either able to use the reflection of light to make others invisible, or their speed and reaction ability far exceeded that of ordinary people, or their jumping ability was amazing.
They have only one use, and that is close range assassination.
"Don't fight too long, coordinate the attack. The skin of this creature should be very thick, and one knife may not be able to cause any damage to it, but if we only attack a few fixed positions, it will definitely be effective." Liang Xian whispered.
The twelve warriors, including him, were divided into four groups. Each of them carried no less than ten daggers on his waist. They rushed towards the invisible monster quickly, holding the knives in both hands, in groups of three, like a few little flies, constantly scratching shallow scars on the monster with the knives.
The first knife was like cutting on a steel plate. Liang Xian's arm was numb, but he remained calm. He turned in the air and used his other hand to cut another wound in the same place before jumping away. Then the second group came forward and attacked the other side of the monster.
The four groups took turns attacking the monster from all sides, in the order of 1234, 1342, 1432, 4321, 4213, 4312… There were 24 attack orders for the four groups, enough to dazzle the monster.
The artillery attack just now was not ineffective. The dense artillery fire outlined the general shape of the monster. This was a monster that was thirty meters long and five meters wide. If you don't consider the body under the mud, the height exposed above was about one meter. It seemed to have no tentacles, only a long tail.
It's a bit like a reptile, and if it can't attack from a distance like a Psychic, then it probably only has two methods: bite force and tail lashes, which are easy to avoid.
With a "crack", the dagger in Liang Xian's hand broke. He threw it away and pulled out another one from his waist.
I hope I can inflict a fatal blow to this monster before all the daggers break.
It seemed that the fog could not be maintained during the battle. It gradually dissipated, the sun shone on the earth again, and it became increasingly difficult for the monster to maintain its mimicry, and finally it revealed its true form in front of everyone.
This monster looks like a giant crocodile, with extremely thick skin. The assault team can only leave a faint white mark on it after attacking it. It also looks like a gecko, but its tail was actually injured during the initial artillery attack, but it is slowly recovering. It also has the ability of a chameleon, which can mimic the color of the surrounding environment and hide itself perfectly.
This monster has almost all the characteristics of reptiles. I just hope it is not poisonous. Otherwise, if it sprays out poisonous gas at close range, it will be almost invincible.
When Liang Xian chose to attack at close range, he had already roughly determined that it could not have long-range radioactive attack methods. If it had, it would have been only 20 meters away from the hovercraft in the fog just now, and it could have attacked everyone directly. But it did not, and instead planned to sneak under the hovercraft from under the swamp, probably intending to overturn the hovercraft. As long as the boat capsized and everyone fell into the mud, even Tan Yan would not be able to save so many injured people and ordinary people at once.
When it used mist to hide itself and its skin was hard enough to withstand artillery fire, Liang Xian guessed that it was incapable of long-range attacks.
"Cen!" Another short knife was broken, but the other half of the knife was stuck on the crawling monster. It was broken when it was pulled out, which means that their continuous attacks are effective!
Liang Xian immediately shouted, "Try harder, be careful to avoid the attack from its tail and teeth. This monster is extremely strong, no one can withstand its force, and if you get hit, you will die!"
The assault team also understood this. They were like dancing with the god of death, almost sticking to the monster's long tail. Even if they moved 1cm less, they might be injured or bitten by the tail.
Once, twice... ten times, a hundred times, the twelve soldiers continuously attacked the same position, and finally made the four vital points that Liang Xian had guessed in advance bleed.
"Sniper!" Liang Xian shouted loudly.
The wound must be deepened as quickly as possible, otherwise, with its healing ability, the damage that was caused with great difficulty will heal again in less than five minutes.
The snipers were ready. Four snipers locked onto the four wounds and pulled the trigger continuously.
If one shot doesn't work, use two shots. If two shots don't work, use four shots. Shoot all the remaining bullets and you won't believe that you can't inflict heavy damage on the monster!
Finally, the monster's two-meter-tall head raised up and let out a low and hoarse roar, like a muffled thunder exploding nearby, making people panic.
"retreat!"
Under Liang Xian's command, the twelve commandos retreated frantically, fleeing at the fastest speed. One soldier seemed to be exhausted and slipped in the mud and was about to fall. At this time, the monster's big tail had already swung over, and it seemed that the soldier was about to be beaten to pieces. At some point, a sika deer with a flat plate on its horns appeared in front of the soldier, raised its front hooves, and blocked the monster's tail.
It lowered its head, bit the soldier's clothes, threw him on its back, and jumped onto the hovercraft carrying the soldier with a sprained foot.
The crawling monster struggled in pain, and the sniper showed no intention of stopping. It finally confirmed that it could not hurt this group of people. After howling for a while, it turned around, blocked the bullet with its tail, and slowly swam away in the mud.
About ten minutes after it left, Tu Zishi nodded to Liang Xian, and after confirming that there was no more danger, the people on the hovercraft breathed a sigh of relief.
Ah San sat on the boat and said, "Fortunately it's not fast, fortunately it's not flexible enough, fortunately it can't attack from a distance, otherwise we would all be doomed, fortunately, fortunately..."
"It's not a blessing in disguise," Liang Xian said calmly. "Being thick-skinned and huge will bring about the weakness of inconvenience in movement. Classical physics is still very practical in the macroscopic world. It's like playing a game. If you choose to be a tank, you will be slow. If you choose to be a ranged player, you will be fragile. There is nothing perfect in this world."
"What about them?" Asan pointed at Xiaolu and Tan Yan.
The deer put the injured soldier down. Because he threw him on his back, his clean body was covered with mud, which made him a little anxious. He wanted to rub against Tan Yan to win credit, but he was disgusted by the dirt on his body.
At this time, a Psychic who was still capable of fighting came over and wiped the mud off the deer's body, his eyes filled with gratitude and awe.
If it weren't for the deer, their operation would still be successful, but the warrior with the injured foot would probably remain in the swamp of this world forever.
After wiping its body clean, the little deer happily ran to Tan Yan and started calling out “yo yo”.
Liang Xian looked at them and smiled: "They are probably the gods who came down to earth to save the world."
Beautiful, powerful, and gentle, emitting a faint, soft light under the warm sunshine.
Liang Xian thought, these were his family, he was so happy.
The author has something to say: I am dying, team battles are so hard to write!!
The problems of this world have been basically solved, and the soldiers have little combat effectiveness. Let’s go home in the next chapter!
