"Click, click!"
The bones under his feet made a crisp cracking sound.
In order to save time, Chen Xing did not choose to take a detour, but went directly through the Bone Cemetery. Because he found traces of the passing of large troops. Since someone has passed by, it means it is feasible.
"Watch your step!" "Clang!"
The mechanical legs of a shoulder-resistant cannon sank into a pile of bones, and the body tilted. A group of master regiment soldiers gathered around and helped in every possible way.
"We push in front, you pull in the back." "One, two, three, get up!"
The shoulder-resistant gun quickly escaped from the silt and continued to move forward.
The wolf cavalry jumped among the uneven piles of bones, and the frightened poisonous insects, snakes and ants burrowed into the gaps between the bones. A black centipede crawled into the skull's eye socket and stretched out two red tentacles. The tentacles swing back and forth, as if they are waiting for prey, waiting for the opportunity to move.
With a thought in Chen Xing's mind, five or six fire-breathing goblins ran out. Their faces were smeared with colorful paint, like graffiti grimaces. They held an oil bottle in one hand and a torch in the other. They raised their heads and poured a large mouthful of fire oil, then sprayed out large streams of flames towards the poisonous insects in the gaps.
"tumultuous!"
Wherever the flames burned, poisonous insects fled. Insects are naturally afraid of fire, even the insects in the abyss, unless they evolve to a higher level.
The team advanced for half an hour in the endless graveyard of bones, and Chen Xing's tactical satellite captured Qin Wu's traces again.
However, Qinwu was on the edge of satellite detection, and the photos returned were very blurry. It could only be seen that the general trend was to move toward the southeast.
"Speed up and don't lose track!"
"receive!"
From time to time, Chen Xing used the walkie-talkie to command the large troops 500 meters away.
Another half hour later, judging from the terrain map transmitted back by the satellite, they entered the center of the Bone Cemetery, and they could leave this ghost place five or six kilometers further.
The deeper you go, the more eerie the surroundings become, and the pale bones become more terrifying. This kind of place is so uncomfortable, as if you are in the legendary hell of bones. There are mountains of bones and corpses everywhere.
Suddenly, the wolf cavalry exploring the road ahead seemed to have touched something, and their bones moved like quicksand.
"Wow, wow, wow..."
A large head was exposed among the flowing bones. It was as big as the front of a truck, with two ghostly fires igniting in the dark eyes. The shape was terrifying and very scary.
Bone demon!
Chen Xing saw it on the satellite photo just now and jumped up immediately. With the sound of iron chains rubbing together, a giant ax fell from the sky. He caught it in the air, held it in vain with both hands, and stretched his body like a bow. Before the bone demon could fully crawl out, he struck down with an axe.
"Crack!"
Most of the ax was embedded in the skull, and bone fragments were flying everywhere. The ax was slowly raised, and the two ghost fires that had just been ignited were gradually extinguished. The skull was like an open gourd, cracking into two pieces.
Looking up, he saw the sea of bones tumbling in front of him, and a large number of bone demons crawled out of the pile of bones. They twist their thick and clumsy skeletons, and the bone scythes pull at the broken bones, like deformed children crawling in the sand pool, extremely ugly.
Chen Xing succeeded with one blow and was not reluctant to fight. He immediately recalled the wolf cavalry and evacuated to the rear.
"All personnel, stay in place and prepare to meet the enemy!"
"yes!"
The members of the master group five hundred meters away immediately dispersed, occupying the surrounding commanding heights, looking for bunkers, and building a defense line.
Mechas and personnel mingled together, covering each other.
Chen Xing had no intention of using his own power to defeat the Bone Demon, although he could definitely kill them all by himself. However, maintaining tactical satellites requires psionic energy, and sending out wolf cavalry requires psionic energy. If he has to solve all problems, the psionic energy will soon be exhausted.
If you encounter a strong enemy, there will be no way to deal with it.
Evolutionaries who have exhausted their psychic energy are like cars that have run out of gas, electrical appliances that have lost their power supply, and piles of scrap metal. The storage capacity of the spiritual pool is limited, and converting external spiritual energy into spiritual energy star sand that can be used by oneself also requires time and physical consumption. Even a king-level powerhouse is in danger of running out of spiritual energy, let alone him who only has one shadow. Chi's quasi-lord level.
This is the value of ordinary soldiers. They can share the spiritual energy consumption of the strong, and the thermal weapons have strong continuous combat capabilities. As long as they have enough ammunition, they can continue to fight. Of course, the premise is that the person is still alive.
Under the lure of the wolf cavalry, the first batch of bone demons entered the shooting range of the master group. In an instant, gunshots burst out and artillery fire continued.
"boom!"
The Bone Demon is huge and has an obvious target. A cannonball hit the skull directly, immediately exploding a large crater.
The sand camel's iron wings burst into flames and shot out flaming whips. The bullet hit the bone demon's torso, chipping away large pieces of bone.
The soldiers fired three bursts, specifically targeting the bone demon's joints. Broken bone fragments flew everywhere, and the huge body lost its support and fell one after another.
Chen Xing squatted half-crouched on the top of the hill, holding the future version of the scar and switching it to sniper mode. The scope scanned the battlefield back and forth, ready to replenish a psychic armor-piercing bullet for any fish that slipped through the net.
The role of elites in legion operations is to "fill in" and make up for the loopholes that may appear at any time on one's own battlefield.
A bone demon passed through the hail of bullets and rushed straight to a shoulder-resistant cannon. It raised its body and the bone sickle was about to fall.
"Bang!"
A dull gunshot sounded, and a blue light exploded on the head. The Bone Demon's big head tilted to one side and fell heavily.
The shoulder-resistant cannon quickly moved its muzzle and aimed it at the bone demon's head at close range. An armor-piercing artillery shell was pushed into the barrel, and the barrel suddenly froze.
"boom!"
The cannonball escaped, and the huge head was blown to pieces.
The first group of bone demons were knocked down, and the second group of bone demons rushed up again.
"Huozui, support the Eastern Front!"
"Jianyue Canglian, support the Western Front!"
"Okay!" "Yes!"
Under the attack of more than 300 people and dozens of mechas, the Bone Demon was quickly destroyed.
The huge head was riddled with holes and broken bones were scattered everywhere.
But inevitably, the gunfire reached Qin Wu. In the satellite photo, Qin Wu looks towards the battlefield.
But Chen Xing was not worried, because the other party could only hear gunfire and could not see the battlefield. Now that mercenary groups have entered on a large scale and battles occur from time to time, the other party will not be suspicious, let alone think that there is someone following behind.
While Qin Wu was watching, Chen Xing asked the soldiers to search for the soul bones on the body of the bone demon. Soul bones, like crystal cores, can be used to refine evolution potions and can be sold for a lot of money.
According to the rules of the mercenary group, half of the loot can be divided. Half of the mercenary group will be retained and half will be distributed equally.
When Qin Wu started to move, Chen Xing continued to follow. It is estimated that the other party will never realize until his death that there is a satellite monitoring his every move at an altitude of 80,000 meters.
About an hour later, the team emerged from the Bone Cemetery. Encountered a few sporadic bone demons along the way, but were killed by focused fire.
"Camp?"
Not long after leaving the Bone Cemetery, the satellite discovered a mercenary camp eight kilometers away.
The mercenary group logo on the tent caught Chen Xing's attention.
"Do you still have contact with the Hexi Mercenary Group?" Chen Xing asked Huo Zui.
Huo Zui replied that there has been no cooperation since the last battle, and then added, "But we will still greet each other when we meet."
This camp was in the southwest, while Qin Wu moved toward the southeast.
Chen Xing now has two choices. One is to continue to follow Qin Wu to see what the other party's purpose is, and the other is to go to the camp of the Hexi mercenary group to inquire for information.
After a period of thinking, Chen Xing decided to go to the Hexi Mercenary Group. Because their main purpose is to rescue Tie Nuo, not to follow Qin Wu.
Furthermore, if there is no news from the Hexi Mercenary Group, then there is news from the southeast. Anyway, he has tactical satellites and a large detection range, so he is not afraid of not being found.
After a while, Chen Xing led the team to the camp in Hexi.
The camp was sparsely populated and listless, as if they had just lost a battle. Seeing the troops of the master regiment, everyone looked worried.
Several of the veterans who had participated in the Spider Ant Group's siege recognized the Thunder Light Group's logo and quickly called their companions over to say hello.
"Where is your group leader?" Huo Zui asked.
"The regiment leader is not here. We are the logistics brigade and are on standby here." The veteran of the Hexi regiment replied.
"Have you ever seen our captain, the tall and big one, Captain Tienuo." Huozui gestured at his height. Tienuo is tall, nearly two meters tall, and is very iconic.
"I've seen it." The veteran nodded.
Huo Zui suddenly showed excitement, looked at each other and Chen Xing, and asked, "Where have they gone?"
"Come from the Bone Cemetery, and go southeast." The veteran pointed to the way they came.
"When did this happen?" Chen Xing asked.
"Well..." The veteran pinched his fingers and counted for a while before replying, "It was about thirty days ago."
"Thank you." Chen Xing glanced at Jian Yue Canglian behind him. The latter took out a money bag and handed it to the veteran with both hands, "Thank you for your information."
"Oh, they are all acquaintances, how can this be embarrassing..." The veteran declined subconsciously. Most mercenaries are greedy for money, but there are also some who don't particularly care about money. Most of them are veterans. They have survived on the battlefield for a long time, are used to life and death, and have no such great desire for money.
"Take it, your information is very important to us and will save us a lot of detours," Chen Xing said.
"Then, you're welcome." The veteran took the money bag, turned around and handed it to a young man with a childish face, asking him to divide the money equally.
Chen Xing set off immediately without making any further stops. Thirty days have passed, and the mercenary group rarely carries more than a month's worth of rations. Even if Tienuo and the others are still alive, they will soon run out of ammunition and food.
The team kept walking toward the southeast, and the light cast by the clouds became darker and darker. It should be evening outside.
The alien space fragments will gradually merge with the local space, and light and air can come in, but only a small part. If it is night outside, it will be night inside.
"Set up camp and rest."
The endless abyss is full of dangers, and it is too dangerous to move at night. We can only wait for the sun to come out tomorrow and continue our journey.
