doomsday lamb

The stalemate on the northern battlefield did not last long. The improvised sniper team only had a few dozen Type 85 sniper rifles, which was obviously a drop in the bucket compared to the endless stream of corpse beasts.

The ordinary soldiers who continued to shoot were summoned by Lao Chen to retreat before they could use up all the bullets they carried.

"Fall back, fall back, everyone go to the second line of defense!"

In just a few minutes, the battle on the front line has gradually become tense. On the three battlefields, the rifle squad's initial concentrated fire killed many corpse rabbits, corpse dogs, mutant macaques, and even eliminated half of the mutant wild boars. However, as the herd gradually advanced,

Completely crossing the "wire corridor" to the north and the ice area outside the east and west positions, the formations tended to be scattered, and the shooting effect of the rifles became worse and worse.

Until just now, the nearest corpse beast to the north was only a hundred meters away from the soldiers on the first line of defense. Such a distance was very risky, and there was no need to hold on to the first line of defense.

Looking from a distance, the number of corpse beasts arranged here is still considerable.

Wild dogs were originally the natural enemies of rabbits, but now they are running together with the latter. This is absolutely impossible in normal times. However, the necromorphs will not eat each other. In theory, they have become the same creature after the necromorphs

, they live in peace with each other, and only fresh flesh and blood will arouse their desire to devour.

Now Lao Chen has brought a dozen warriors with good marksmanship to block the enemy, and Xiao Heizi also takes to the air to assist, constantly using skills such as pneumatic drill and wind blade. The combination of rifle bullets and wind skills will kill the corpse beasts running at the front.

They were knocked over and disabled one after another, constantly buying time for others to retreat.

In the end, the northern and western positions were the first to complete the retreat, while the eastern positions fell last because they were still some distance away from the wild boars and carcasses.

Just when these warriors were about to retreat, three warriors who had stood up fell straight down beside the horse! On their chests, there were slender white bone awls stuck in them, and a large amount of blood foam was stuck on them.

It gushed out of the throat and the person was hopeless.

"Whoosh-" the sound of breaking through the air sounded one after another.

"Get down!" Lan Xi shouted, dragging a young soldier down, and then a bone awl was thrown like a javelin, directly nailing the man's position. The bone awl was straight and sharp, and it penetrated into the ground for twenty seconds.

Centimeters, Lan Xi and the two were so shocked that they broke into a cold sweat.

"Chief, there is something wrong with the corpse group to the east. There are special black corpses hidden there!"

She hurriedly reported, and while reporting, she ordered other people: "Attention everyone, there are G2 bone spur black corpses on the enemy, the number is unknown. Fire cover, I will kill these guys!"

But Hai Ping grabbed her and said: "Don't go, there are also 'Shield Armor' and two 'Slobbering Fatty' in there, you can't handle it."

Lan Xi's eyes widened when he heard this. In this small group of corpses, there are actually both shielded black corpses and spitting black corpses? Bone spurs, armor, and strong acid. It's really strange. Why do these three guys always like to get together?

Together?

But what was surprising was that Lan Xi was not carried away by anger after all. With bone spur attack, shield defense, and strong acid as a deterrent at close range, only those who couldn't imagine would engage in close combat with this combination.

"What should we do?" Lan Xi asked.

"Everyone, stop moving and lower your heads!"

Hai Ping raised a sniper rifle, aimed at a G2 bone spur in the distance and said: "Come with two people who have passed the marksmanship, let me pull out these spikes first. No one can leave until they die!"

Section 2

In the center of the river valley, a blazing white light column shoots straight into the sky. The light is so strong that people dare not look directly at it, as if a second sun has appeared in the sky. In this light column, a total of six spherical droplets, two green and four red, gradually take shape.

It is particularly conspicuous in the snow-white light curtain.

At the same time, an invisible wave born out of the light beam swept across the entire valley. The fifth energy wave appeared, and the beasts went crazy about it, and the humans also became red-eyed as if they had been drugged.

Among them, the most agile corpse rabbits and mutated macaques have arrived at what was once the first line of defense. Here, the closely arranged simple horse resistance has become the first obstacle, causing more and more corpse beasts to accumulate here.

The group formation became dense again.

"It's time, Lao Lin!"

Lao Chen, who had retreated to the second line of defense, roared and saw Lin Wenjin flying into the air with the help of Xiao Heizi. A large bow appeared in his hand, with seven feather arrows attached to it. Lin Wenjin opened his mouth and blew, and the arrows

The flames were ignited. Under the control of the "Wheat Mang" skill, the flaming arrows were thrown to the west and north like a goddess scattering flowers, and accurately landed in a ditch in front of Juma.

There was water in the trench, and a thick layer of fuel on the water.

With a bang, fire appeared out of thin air, and the fire fiercely shot into the sky, forming a spectacular wall of fire outside the first line of defense! Dozens of mutant macaques were immediately on fire, screaming and going crazy on the sand in front of the line of defense.

Rolling. On the contrary, the corpse beasts in the north do not feel pain, but precisely because of this, they turned into torches that remained motionless. Under the high temperature, the spore colonies in the back of the brain and spinal cord would soon suffer fatal damage.

!

Perhaps there would be no need for the second or even third line of defense. Suddenly, many soldiers had this thought in their minds.

When Old Chen saw it, he still ordered meticulously: "The second line of defense is in place, ready to attack the herd of beasts that break through the flame blockade!"

"yes!"

Suddenly, a shining eagle cry filled the sky and stopped the clouds, in the west of the river valley.

A white-brown goshawk sprang out from the forest above. This guy has a wingspan of more than two meters. He has white eyebrows and a gray tail, and the tips of his wings are white. The lower part of his chest is densely covered with gray-brown and white horizontal stripes. He looks very beautiful at first glance.

.

But after all, this is the end of the world, and often only weak creatures appear in embarrassment. The goshawk that can soar into the sky is a symbol of danger in the eyes of survivors.

"Everyone get down, don't shoot!"

"Da da da."

Lao Chen obviously thought more than Yang Xiaoxiao who was stationed on the west side. Unfortunately, his warning was too late. The goshawk pressed the formation. A soldier on the west side could not hold back and shot at the goshawk out of fear.

.

The first was followed by the second, and this shot was like poking a hornet's nest. As soon as the gun rang out, others swarmed into the sky and opened fire. So much so that the monkeys and deer in front of the position suddenly suddenly

No one is coming to stop it.

"Ta-ta-ta." "Ta-ta-ta-ta."

"Idiot! Are you looking for death?" Yang Xiaoxiao, one of the commanders, also realized that something was wrong.

This goshawk is far more majestic than the pre-apocalyptic species, and you can tell at a glance that it is an evolved creature of a high level. At the critical moment when the gelatinous core is about to take shape, the black beast goshawk wants to "spoil it"

"In addition to coveting these cores, there is absolutely no second purpose.

Originally, the goshawk flew very fast in the air, and the hundred people on the west side of the position couldn't stop it. As long as we let it pass, there would naturally be Lang Hua and other ability users of the same level to deal with it. But these people attacked without knowing their strength.

Isn't it causing hatred?

The 7.62mm rifle bullets flying all over the sky were so spectacular that even the black beast Goshawk, the dominator in the sky, could not even think of passing through this rain of bullets unscathed. Faced with the soldiers' momentum as if they were about to empty their magazines,

Goshawk lived up to expectations and was injured.

It was seen that it was hit by several rifle bullets at the same time. The strong kinetic energy caused the goshawk's wing feathers to peel off, and its body flew backwards while letting out a shrill eagle cry.

"刈——"

"It seems that this guy's defense is not strong." Yang Xiaoxiao thought subconsciously.

Goshawk was frustrated, and the soldiers were even more excited. However, they may have overlooked that being able to survive in such a hail of bullets was terrifying in itself.

Sure enough, the next moment, the Black Beast Goshawk broke through to the other side of the position carrying a small hail of bullets. It was so fast that the rifle squad could only keep up with its afterimage.

"What's going on?"

"It's there! Kill it!"

"Here, here, don't let it get away!"

In just ten seconds, the goshawk changed its position several times in the air and arrived at a nearby low-altitude area. Suddenly, the goshawk accelerated again, came to the top of the position, opened its mouth and spat out a pink light, and the three closest soldiers were immediately hit.

, fell to the ground and kept wailing.

"Ahhh! My eyes."

"Arm, arm, who will save me?"

"ah--"

Looking over again, I saw that the parts of the three people that were swept by the light quickly became ulcerated and pus leaked out, exuding thick yellow mucus. In a short period of time, these ulcerated parts expanded rapidly and gradually spread to all parts of the body.

The injured couldn't help but scratch these ulcerated parts. In some places, the muscles were weak and the white periosteum could be seen. The miserable conditions, combined with the wailing of the injured, were particularly horrifying.

What's even more frightening is that two nearby soldiers wanted to help the injured, but they were injured because they touched the yellow pus. In a short period of time, five living people turned into five tattered sacks.

.

"Don't touch them! This yellow water is poisonous too!"

"No, don't. Help me, I don't want to die."

Seeing this, Lao Chen's pupils shrank tightly and he exclaimed: "It's so corrosive."

"bite!"

In the blink of an eye, the goshawk in the sky disappeared. At the same time, Yang Xiaoxiao also flashed an afterimage.

The next moment, a pair of daggers lay across the defense line, colliding with the gray-yellow eagle claws. Four black nails were curved like hooks, almost sparking with the edge of the dagger, but the dagger and its owner did not retreat at all. From Yang Xiaoxiao

You can tell by the bulging veins on her neck - how much pressure she is under at this moment.

"Phantom-Confusion!"

She almost tried her best to activate her ability, and the "confusion" effect broke out instantly, making Goshawk's eyes blurry for a moment. As soon as she said it, Yang Xiaoxiao flipped her wrist, slid the blade to the side, and cut straight to

The opponent's wing root. As long as this move hits, she will make this beast unable to fly again!

"刈——"

Unfortunately, at the critical moment, the goshawk regained consciousness and flew high into the sky with an eagle cry. Looking at Yang Xiaoxiao on the ground, its golden eyes radiated sharp sight, with both fear and ridicule in their eyes, making it look very human.

Behind Yang Xiaoxiao, a girl was paralyzed on the ground in fear. Facing the sharp claws of the goshawk flying towards her, she had no power to resist. Even if she would be disemboweled in the next moment, she would not be able to lift up the slightest bit.

Thoughts of resistance.

If Yang Xiaoxiao hadn't saved her this time, the consequences would be unimaginable...

"Yang...instructor." The girl muttered.

Yang Xiaoxiao's eyes widened: "Get out!"

Only then did the girl remember the rifle she had thrown on the ground. She immediately picked it up and followed Yang Xiaoxiao to join the battle again.

This goshawk that broke out halfway,

The situation on the battlefield in the west has been completely disrupted. When the rifle squad blindly fired at the goshawks, the black beast macaques who luckily escaped from death by crossing the flame trench have rushed into the second line of defense to fight with the evolvers.

Not far behind them, the carcass deer herd, which had not lost many members, was also belatedly arriving.

Now the west side of the river valley is completely in chaos, and the human defensive position is very weak. Once the zombie beasts fully break through the defense line and sneak attack on the northern battlefield, a large number of casualties will be caused.

As the afterimage flashed, Yang Xiaoxiao raised his knife and cut off the claws of a black beast macaque. The wolf-tooth dagger was curved like a crescent moon. Yang Xiaoxiao turned his hand and turned it around. Before the victim could cry out, he cut it straight with the dagger.

throat.

As the only ability user on the west side of the battlefield, Yang Xiaoxiao has a heavy responsibility. These black beast macaques are generally in the late first level, higher than the evolutionary level of humans. Moreover, these macaques are fast, have sharp teeth and claws, and are extremely difficult to deal with one on one.

Soldiers were injured almost every moment. Only if Yang Xiaoxiao killed one more black beast before the situation worsened, would ordinary evolvers suffer less damage.

The goshawk that flew back into the sky has been taken over by the rushing black eagle. Although the damage of the first-order wind blade to the goshawk is limited, the little black man is as slippery as a loach and always does not allow the goshawk to confront him head-on.

Chance.

After a few rounds, the goshawk suddenly opened its mouth and spit out a pink light again. But Xiao Heizi was already prepared and used "Feng Cheng" to move himself laterally far away. He could clearly see the power of this corrosive light just now.

Chu, how could he be unprepared?

But what Xiao Heizi didn't expect was that the goshawk suddenly accelerated and rushed here after spitting out light. It was as if he had guessed that he would hide here! He knew very well - Feng Cheng's skills can only move in a short distance and in a straight line.

, it is inevitable to avoid it at this time.

The goshawk's talons are so sharp that they even reflect a dark light under the sunlight. If he were to hit this talon, Xiao Heizi would have no doubt that he would be gutted and pierced on the spot!

"Dragnet!"

In desperation, he crazily instilled wind abilities into his palms and used the strongest combination of moves currently!

In the blink of an eye, dozens of palm-sized blades and pneumatic drills took shape one after another and were thrown forward. At the same time, these long and thin wind energy blades were connected with each other and quickly formed something like a fishing net.

Unfortunately, the goshawk's persistence and speed were still far beyond Xiao Heizi's imagination. Not only did it not avoid it at all, but it also charged forward despite all the swords and swords.

Fast, too fast! The movement speed of the second-level wind element user is less than one-tenth of that, and Li Xian’s bow and arrow are simply incomparable. I saw the goshawk rushing all the way, destroying the "draft and earth net" that was still taking shape.

The brains were knocked apart, and the shiny black eagle claws were only one step away from the boy's chest!

"Am I going to die?"

At this moment, Duan Hei felt that death was so close to him. The last time he felt this way, it was when his mother transformed into a corpse and bit his father's arm...

At the critical moment, a big hand appeared from behind and threw the dazed Xiao Heizi backward. It was Lin Wenjin, who had temporarily become the follower of Xiao Heizi's "Feng Cheng" skill. Now he swooped in front to block the two.

People's positions have been changed.

"Why did he do this? He saved me, will he die?" For a time, countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Heizi's mind.

Apart from those who specialize in defense, Xiao Heizi couldn't think of anyone else who could block this sharp eagle claw. All of this was due to him overestimating his abilities. The black beast Goshawk at the early stage of the third level was not as good as his little one.

Can a first-level ability user deal with it?

Brother Lang is right, in the face of the natural chasm-like level suppression, any leapfrog combat is only a temporary phenomenon. Once the higher-level evolved creatures find their rhythm in the battle, they will have ten ways to kill us.

At this moment, Xiao Heizi finally understood this truth, but it seemed... it was too late.

"Uncle Lin!"

But what was strange was that the boy's shouts stopped abruptly the next moment. He stared blankly at the sky, his jaw almost dropped by the sight in front of him.

A curtain of fire suddenly erupted in the area between Lin Wenjin and Goshawk. This sea of ​​fire, which seemed to be summoned from the dimensional space, spread rapidly in all directions with Lin Wenjin as the center, lighting up almost half of the sky.

The flame barrier separated the man and the beast. The goshawk seemed to be very afraid of the flames and could barely stop himself just before his body came into contact with the fire screen. As the saying goes, if the opportunity is too good to be missed, it will never come again. Missing this opportunity represents the fate of the goshawk.

The eagle's attack failed.

Not only that, the fire curtain quickly shrank, and finally condensed into a lifelike flamingo with a wingspan of two meters. Before the goshawk could react, the flamingo took the initiative to fight with it.

With the flamingo replacing him, Lin Wenjin, who was freed from the battle, hurriedly used "Feng Cheng" to fly back to Xiao Heizi. As soon as he landed, he patted the latter's head and scolded: "What are you howling, Mr. Lin?"

I’m not dead yet!”

Looking at the flamingos formed by the curtain of fire in the sky, Xiao Heizi swallowed his saliva and murmured: "Master Lin, you are so handsome."

"Nonsense, I've always been handsome." Lin Wenjin chuckled, "But your 'Feng Cheng' is a bit useful, haha."

He then took Xiao Heizi's hand and said, "Let's go, follow me quickly."

The latter asked in a daze: "Why are you going?"

Lin Wenjin raised his head and glanced at the sky, and then said confidently: "You are stupid, of course you are running for your life."
