Chapter 84 83. Fierce battle at the sentry tower

There are a total of 15 people in the elite team responsible for carrying out covert operations.

Lieutenant Slack serves as team leader.

The three second lieutenants under him are deputy captains.

Except for Li Nuo and Mars, who are not staff sergeants, all other team members are staff sergeants.

But they are no ordinary staff sergeants.

According to Sergeant Mars, these sergeants do not need to lead troops to fight. They are responsible for handling emergencies and attacking fortresses. They are pure fighting machines.

They are not lieutenants, but each of them can continuously enter the form of a biochemical giant with the help of potions, and the duration of the transformation is longer than that of Sergeant Alvin.

It can be said that the so-called elite team is rushing to destroy enemy lines, and everything must be efficient and destructive.

Li Nuo understands the truth...

But the question is, why do these strong sergeants all have bald heads and have jet black serial numbers on the backs of their heads?

"This is a characteristic of the elite combatants of the Imperial Military Academy, Jarvis. I'm used to it anyway."

Sergeant Mars sat in the carriage and whispered to Li Nuo next to him:

"Before entering the Imperial Sergeant Academy, isn't there a physical examination? Only after passing the physical examination can you enter the academy. If the score of the physical examination is very good, you will be assigned to the elite combatant class. You will be shaved bald and have a number spray-painted on the back of your head. This is all

Is a characteristic of an elite combatant.

"This kind of people are basically recommended to lieutenants. After entering the Imperial Military Academy and serving for three consecutive years, they can be directly promoted to second lieutenants. The second lieutenants you see who do not lead soldiers are all promoted in this way.

For example, Lieutenant Gretel."

Li Nuo sighed:

"So some people are lieutenants from birth."

“Who says it’s not?”

"Boom boom..." The steam locomotive started and drove smoothly into the ruins outside the camp.

The MI4 engineering team dug many underground tunnels that spiral downwards in the ruins.

From these underground passages, you can go directly to the banks of the underground river. You will not encounter the undead on the way. It is faster and safer than walking through the tomb passages.

Lieutenant Slack originally planned to visit Tomb No. 717, but a sudden undead riot interrupted his plan.

As a last resort, he applied to use the underground passage secretly dug by MI4.

These underground passages are kept secret and are strictly kept secret and guarded.

Now, it's time to enable them.

The steam locomotive drove for about a quarter of an hour and stopped in a pile of ruins on higher ground.

The soldiers of the Engineering Department who were guarding here got the news. They opened the entrance to the underground passage in advance, just waiting for the elite team to enter.

A group of members checked the military supplies they carried with them for the last time and entered the underground entrance hidden in the ruins one by one.

At this moment, a slightly noisy sound came from the direction of Tomb No. 717.

There were gunshots, screams, the roar of bombs detonating, and bursts of screams swaying in the wind.

Everyone paused for a moment and looked in the direction of the tomb.

The fighting there was more intense than before.

Quite a few undead actually came out of the secret door on the underground floor, went back to the main entrance of the mausoleum, and surrounded the imperial troops in the hall.

These undead are elite.

They are all metal skeletons, self-exploding skeletons, tomb corpse soldiers and cairn spirit spirits that carry the evil wind. There are countless skeleton dogs that are flexible and good at containing enemies.

Only then did Li Nuo realize how terrifying the tomb riot was.

The undead are like crazy, attacking from all directions and not following the usual path at all.

In the past, the undead would never appear on the ground.

But now...

If Lieutenant Serret, who had transformed into a biochemical giant, had not blocked the formation at the entrance of the mausoleum, Serret's army would have definitely been in danger of being attacked from both sides by the undead.

"Speed ​​up and keep going."

Lieutenant Slack waved an order and took the lead into the underground entrance.

Li Nuo and Sergeant Mars walked at the end of the team.

As they looked at Tomb No. 717 in the distance with emotion, they discovered that a small convoy was approaching from the horizon.

"Who are those people?" Li Nuo squinted at the convoy, "Could it be that the reinforcements contacted by Lieutenant Sere have arrived?"

"No, it's not." Sergeant Mars frowned:

"I saw the MI2 logo on the carriage of that motorcade."

"It's MI2 again...what are they doing here?" Li Nuo thought of the death-defying spies hiding in the medical area, and felt something slightly bad in his heart.

"Who knows? These guys rely on their internal review authority to go wherever they want, not to mention Tomb No. 717, even to the legion commander's office."

Sergeant Mars shook his head and patted Li Nuo on the shoulder:

"Let's go, leave MI2 alone. Our 'Broken Coffin' plan is supported by the Emperor, so MI2 can't stop us."

Li Nuo withdrew his gaze, and then looked towards the Vidas army, staring at the tent where Captain Murphya was.

MI2 may not be here for Tomb No. 717.

Could their target be Captain Murphya and the Elder Wand?

Li Nuo thought for a moment, then put aside distracting thoughts and followed Sergeant Mars into the underground entrance.

The underground passage that spirals downward is dark and dull.

There are no lighting facilities here, and all the light is provided by the coal lamps on the helmets of the elite team.

There are no ventilation ducts, so everyone must wear a breathing mask to pass smoothly.

After walking in this claustrophobic passage for about half an hour, Li Nuo heard the sound of gurgling water.

On the walls on both sides, there are reflective water curtains.

Li Nuo took a deep breath and smelled the unique damp smell of the underground river.

After walking through three more corners, the scene in front of me became spacious and bright.

The width of this underground river is far wider than Li Nuo thought.

Like a winding python, it shuttles through the underground space filled with poisonous mist.

The surface of the river is covered with dots of dark green light spots, and the whole river is green and shiny.

If you look carefully, you will see that those sparkling dark green spots are the undead pollution that follows the river water to the south.

There are bones lingering with green light, carrion flashing with green light, scales whose names are unknown but also glowing with green light, and many half-cut limbs and haggard mummies.

All these filthy things flowing from the hinterland of the Necromantic Sect, all with an evil dark green light, completely tainted this endless underground river.

This underground river is no ordinary underground canal.

It is the best proof that the Necromancer Sect is cruel and sinful.

When everyone saw the river, anger and disgust burst out in their eyes.

This is true for Lieutenant Slack, this is true for Elite Combatants, and it is true for Sergeant Mars.

Only Li Nuo is slightly different.

While he was disgusted with the pollution of the river, he kept his due thinking and threw out a deconstruction technique.

[System message: You are trying to deconstruct the "abnormal underground river".]

[It is estimated that for every 1100 points of energy consumed, the deconstruction completion rate will increase by 1%.]

[You currently have 13 energy points. Are you sure to proceed with the structure? 】

Abnormal underground river.

I saw the word "abnormal" again.

The last thing that was judged as "abnormal" by the system was the cloud layer floating over the borderland of misery.

This time it was the underground river in front of me.

I don't know if it's a coincidence.

Li Nuo discovered another similarity between this underground river and the clouds.

Their deconstruction consumption seems to be the same?

Li Nuo called up the system messages, scrolled back, and found the message record of his attempt to deconstruct the cloud layer a few days ago.

This is really the case.

Deconstructing the underground river and deconstructing the cloud layer both require 1100 energy points to increase the deconstruction completion rate by 1%.

Why is this so?

As Li Nuo followed the team, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"Everyone, stop moving."

Lieutenant Slack raised his right fist and led the team into hiding in a shadow.

He first stuck out his head and quickly observed the situation in front of him, then turned back and made a series of gestures towards his teammates behind him.

Li Nuo was dazzled and did not understand what the other party meant.

Sergeant Mars explained quietly:

"Our current location is approximately 10 kilometers north of Tomb No. 717, directly below the area. This is the most suitable place to intercept the undead fleet, but there is an undead outpost 100 meters in front of us. The outpost

The station's magic protective cover has been activated. It covers the sentry tower, but does not cover the wall. This means that the outpost is in a level two alert state, and the undead sentries inside do not know that we are coming..."

Lieutenant Slack pointed at several elite combatants and made a series of gestures again.

Sergeant Mars continued to translate for Li Nuo:

"The chief is arranging the assault route and personnel. Combat Group No. 1 will attack in the "Imperial Shield Titan" posture, responsible for containing the Necron turrets and Necron Sentinels on the wall. Combat Group No. 2 will attack in the "Imperial Ranger Titan" posture.

, responsible for breaking through the wall and clearing out the undead garrison in the outpost. Combat Team No. 3, attacking in the form of the "Imperial Heavy Artillery Titan", is responsible for remotely preventing the expansion of the magic protective shield, and sniping at the enemy's war spirit commander... the battle,

We two don't have to worry. After we receive the signal, we can just break the magic protective shield."

Li Nuo nodded and asked:

"You just said that the commander of the Necromancer Outpost is a war spirit? What is a war spirit? This is not mentioned in the books in the reading room..."

"It's normal that I didn't mention it, because you won't encounter war spirits when fighting in the tomb..."

Sergeant Mars thought for a moment and said:

"You can think of war spirits as the troop commanders of the Necromancer Religion. They are the undead officers who are only responsible for commanding the undead to fight and are not responsible for arranging the spiritual hub. They are the top layer of mid-level undead creatures and have strong combat capabilities.

It can also summon undead creatures on the spot, or force sleeping undead to join the battle immediately. In short, war spirits are very difficult to deal with."

Li Nuo asked again:

"The war spirit can summon the undead on the spot? But doesn't the book say that the Necromancer Sect needs to set up ritual circles in order to summon the undead?"

"Yes, I'm right. The War Spirit does have the ability to summon the undead on the spot, which is why it is so difficult to deal with. I don't know how it does it..."

Sergeant Mars raised his index finger and made a silent gesture:

"Hush...the combat team is about to be dispatched. We'll talk about it later."

Li Nuo shut his mouth tightly and looked at the group of bald men.

Each group has its own tasks.

They took out syringes of different colors from their pockets.

The members of Team 1 lifted off their breathing masks. They were not afraid of the poisonous mist in the air. They injected themselves with an iron-gray potion. Then, with a low roar, they transformed into bone armors holding bone shields and bone swords.

giant.

The originally spacious underground space suddenly became cramped.

The "Imperial Shield Titan" is more than eight meters tall, and its arms and waist are much thicker. It looks like a moving mountain of flesh.

They accelerated their charge amidst the roar of battle, slamming hard on the ground, splashing gravel and dust, spanning hundreds of meters like black meteors, and slammed into the guard tower wall.

The appearance of the Necronomicon Outpost is similar to that of a military fortress in the classical era, with a towering guard tower at the center and surrounded by tall rock walls.

The city wall is old and dilapidated, but it is much stronger than it looks.

The shield giant's bone shield hit the wall, making a clear roar like gold and iron clashing.

The wall shook, sand and gravel slid down, and there were obvious cracks and pits on the wall, but there was no scene of the wall collapsing.

"Duwu~"

The undead sentries on the wall are tomb corpse soldiers with minds.

As soon as they saw the imperial giant, which was only two meters shorter than the city wall, they blew their bone horns.

The next second, their heads were shattered by a sudden sharp bullet.

But it was Team 2 of the elite team that completed the transformation, fired bullets from the muzzle of the palm of their hand, and killed these undead sentries.

Team 2 transformed into the "Imperial Ranger Titan".

This giant is small in size, only about 4 meters tall, but moves extremely quickly.

Their left hands turned into biochemical firearms framed by flesh and blood, which could shoot slender bullets from the high-pressure air chamber inside.

Their entire right arm turned into a sharp arc-shaped bone knife.

The muscle lines all over the body are also streamlined. When running, it is like a snake swimming in the water. Not only is it as fast as the wind, it can also change positions in the air, dodge and move.

Within 0.1 seconds after the Shield Titan hits the wall, the Ranger Titan arrives near the wall.

They lowered their hearts slightly, then jumped high into the air, drew an arc, crossed the wall, and jumped into the outpost.

The sharp bone knife transformed from his right arm swept through the interior of the outpost like a violent wind. Dozens of grave corpse soldiers were lifted into the air by the strong wind, and before landing, they were cut into several sections by the shining light of the knife.

At the same time, the Shield Giant bombarded the wall with his bone shield and swept the undead sentries on the wall with his bone sword.

The situation at the scene seemed to be completely under the control of the empire, but it changed with a muddy shout.

A dark figure appeared on the rooftop of the sentry tower, looking up to the sky and roaring.

In his hand was a white bone sword shining with dark green light.

The bone-white sword pointed at the surface of the underground river, shooting out a pale green beam of light.

The river water was stirred by the light beam and turned into a waterspout, spiraling upward against the light beam.

A large number of mummies, pieces of meat and blood were pulled up from the river by light beams.

"Fire heavy artillery! Quick!"

Lieutenant Slack shouted at the heavy artillery giant that transformed into a four-legged turret.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three loud bangs.

The heavy artillery giant stood on all fours and used the turret on its back to fire three cannonballs that were as big as a human head.

Flames spewed out, air waves surged, and the forts fired.

The cannonball hit hard on the magic protective shield in front of the figure on the top of the tower.

Fires burst out, thick smoke billowed, explosions and roars echoed in the underground space, and dense ripples appeared on the river surface.

When the thick smoke dissipated, the magic protective cover returned to its original state amidst a burst of light changes, leaving the figure at the bottom of the tower intact.

The Ranger Giant in the outpost was also blocked in place by a group of enemies that appeared out of thin air.

They were a group of undead creatures that were about the same height and size as the "Imperial Fist". They were purely composed of the sinful remains in the river. The rotten water was spread all over their bodies. Their appearance was terrifying and terrifying.

"Damn it, let's let the war spirit summon the "Skeleton Colossus"."

Lieutenant Slack crouched in the shadows and cursed, giving orders one after another:

"Team 2 lured the skeletal colossus away from the outpost, while Team 3 continued to use artillery fire to suppress the war spirit!... Mars, Jarvis, come here! I will escort you into the outpost! Team 1 covers me! Priority

Intercept the attack of the Necron Turret!"
