"Record the current coordinates, mark, and Category B ghoul lair." Li Minbo said with a rather loud voice while wearing a gas mask.
Following where his finger pointed, over the steep cliff, one could clearly see a depression spreading out in an irregular ring shape in the woodland below. This area was not covered with black trees like the area the reconnaissance team had walked through before, but was sparsely covered with black trees. There are sparse non-reflective black shrubs growing there, and they are not covered with the fallen leaves and humus that can be seen everywhere on the north bank of Tong'an Mountain. There are many footprints on the ground that look like cow hooves. The most important thing is that it is very smelly. Even if you are standing on the cliff, in the leeward position, you can smell a very strong smell of rotten grease through the gas mask. It feels like some kind of smelly canned fish dumped on the road, being blown away by the summer sun. The smell, which has been exposed to the sun for a long time, is not strong.
Just for a moment, the reconnaissance team members with slightly lower tolerance showed signs of nausea. Even though they had been traveling north for more than a week and encountered a bunch of ghosts and monsters, they had never smelled anything so smelly.
Shen Rusong was a little better, but Yang Qi behind him couldn't help but raise his voice and asked on the radio: "Squad leader! Turn on the built-in aromatherapy. It stinks so much that I can't stand it."
Now that he is not the boss, he now listens to Li Minbo. Seeing that the latter has no time to talk to him, Shen Rusong can only comfort a few people in his class and whisper: "Have you never smelled stinky tofu?"
The hunters were at ease. They spread out to guard this small cliff. The semi-optical camouflage made them almost blend in with the environment. Several particularly agile hunters climbed up the treetops and set up the antenna. , and when they slid down with a "squeak" sound, they were covered in dark brown poisonous pine needles, but they just knocked them away without caring, and then sprayed some pheromones as if nothing happened.
The longer they stay with the hunters, the more Shen Rusong and others admire these ruthless people. Long-distance marching in the wild is not something ordinary people can do, and it is in a ghostly place like the north bank of Tong'an Mountain, which is called Tiantian. Just after crossing the Huijiang River a few days ago, the combat engineers began to be unable to withstand it. First, there are the ubiquitous lipomas and venomous snakes and insects that make it impossible for people to take off their protective clothing when camping, and then there are the mutant beasts waiting for opportunities. The mutant beasts here are not the "cute" helmeted rats like Qianshan. They are extremely bloodthirsty. Everyone is safe after spraying camouflage pheromones. A small number of alien beasts tainted with human flavor are falling alone. After that, he was eaten directly. The scene was so brutal that it was shocking. Countless times, within an arm's length, there are ghosts that can easily kill people. Through several thin layers of chemical fiber clothing, everyone knows what the consequences will be if the sharp teeth penetrate them.
There is also radiation, radiation that knocks bones and sucks marrow, which can shorten your life span by several years every time.
"Set up camp and walk here today." A new order came.
"When you hear what the captain says, take action."
Shen Rusong immediately urged the soldiers to move. The engineer's shovel dug into the greasy black earth. Because it was on a cliff, no additional bedding was needed. He only needed to clean off the soil outside the rocks, and then knocked down the double-layered tent. This is an airtight tent. The only thing inside is , to take off the gas mask.
Soon, Li Minbo summoned three squad leaders and spread out a corner of the map hastily on the folding table. He used a dagger to pry open the cans, ate all the food and carefully stored the empty cans. Then he moved the map, pointed to the location and said, "We are close to Mercy Ridge. Beyond that is the high-risk area. We will clear out the nearby nests and then wait for supplies to come up."
"Can we call for remote support?" Another hunter squad leader objected.
Li Minbo shook his head: "It's already too deep. It's difficult for drones to find the location. Moreover, the nest in front of us is cleverly built in a hidden place. The artillery fire may not be able to penetrate deep into the second floor. At most, it will smash the surface."
As if explaining to Shen Rusong, Li Minbo continued: "The ghoul nest is different from the helmeted rat that likes to build nests in rock caves. This beast is very cunning, a bit like termites. It builds many holes and destroys the outside. The first layer is not of much use unless the support pillars or the core layer are blown down, otherwise it will be useless. It is best to destroy their hatcheries."
As soon as Shen Rusong heard this, he knew that the combat engineers were coming. He nodded, patted his armband, and said with some relief: "I've been waiting for now. I've been walking in the woods all day long. The young man can't wait any longer. I'm carrying a backpack." It’s full of explosives, so it would be more comfortable to carry less explosives.”
"I'll lead a team to reconnoiter the perimeter later. I'll try my best to
Map the potholes and then it's your turn. Li Minbo nodded.
"Reload for battle."
Shen Rusong used his binoculars to watch the hunters who set off first disappear into the dense forest.
The four hunters loaded their bullets and followed Li Minbo, who was leading the way. This veteran hunter always dared to be the first. The team formed a fan-shaped formation, keeping close to each other without losing sight of each other. They moved forward step by step, through the dense forest. The humus underneath was wearing away my strength little by little, and I didn’t know how much sewage was there when I lifted my feet out.
There was a rustling sound in the forest. No words were needed. The hunters hid behind the tree trunks in an instant. Li Minbo's eyes scanned the huge black shadow across the forest through the gun scope. He didn't need to look carefully to know what the master of the shadow looked like.
Two extremely strong forelimbs that even have the shoulders much higher than the head support the entire deformed body, and the hind limbs become balancing feet. Once the ghoul launches a charge, it cannot be resolved without strong firepower. But Li Minbo has nothing to worry about. The guns in his hands are all heavy-barreled hunting rifles with 12.7 mm caliber explosive bombs. One shot can turn a person into blood foam when hit on him.
The hunters advanced densely in a fan-shaped search formation. They quickly rushed to the outside of the nest, threw detection balls and entered the inside of the nest. As the scanned images were transmitted back to the electronic tablet, the attack plan became clear.
A red signal flare was raised. When the soldiers on the cliff saw the signal, they immediately turned their attention to the combat engineers.
Already ready to go, he put on the long-lost water-cooled armor, and was armed to the teeth. Only his eyes passed through the welding helmet. Shen Rusong was carrying a heavy-barreled rifle, and beside him were his companions carrying anti-riot shields and shotguns, as well as the hunters who were cooperating in the charge. new
The soldiers walked heavily through the forest. The mud-like humus could not stop the soldiers' footsteps. They stood at the entrance of the lair. These strange beasts, which were larger than bulls, entered from here. For humans, it was like stepping into the deep. In the tunnel.
The dazzling white light pierced the darkness, and the cold gun handle gave people an infinite sense of security. Shen Rusong and the people behind him knew very well that they could only blow up this lair, this ghoul cave that blocked the advance of the large army. Only then do I have time to eat today’s dinner.
