At the edge of the Kulin Wetland, inside the all-terrain vehicle, Yu Hongyang was nervously treating Ye Tianming's wounds. After seeing that the bleeding finally stopped, he slumped to the ground and wiped the sweat from his head.
Looking at the pale Ye Tianming, and then at the scarred brothers.
"When you came back...did you see Consultant Lu?"
"By the way, where's Lu Geng!"
Yu Hongyang's question made the three team members tremble suddenly.
"Why, you didn't see him?" Yu Hongyang immediately became nervous and stood up excitedly.
"Don't get excited." The three of them hurriedly held Yu Hongyang down. After looking at each other, Suo Qiang's cheeks trembled, he swallowed and said, "We... saw it."
Han Zhen and Qi Yuan nodded desperately in agreement.
This time it was Yu Hongyang's turn to be a little strange and asked: "Why didn't Advisor Lu come back with you? This is the Kulin Wetland. He didn't even wear a breathing mask when he left. The poisonous miasma and fog here... …”
【Because he doesn’t need it! 】
The three people simultaneously uttered such a cry from their souls.
Han Zhen raised his head resolutely and said: "Qi Yuan and I have the highest mobility, so Suo Qiang stays in the car for defense. We turn back to meet Lu Ze, and we will stop at the line drawn by Brother Lu Ze just now."
After saying that, Han Zhen and Qi Yuan turned around and prepared to rush back to the Kulin Wetland again.
However, at this moment, waves of fluctuating current sounds suddenly came from the communicator, and then Yu Hongyang shouted in surprise: "There are signs of recovery of communication!"
"Contact Lu Geng quickly!" Everyone said in unison.
However, at this moment, everyone's wrists lit up at the same time.
Looking down, a bright red [SOS] appeared, everyone's bodies trembled heavily, and then all their scalps exploded.
The person asking for help——[Lu Geng].
Lu Geng... is still alive!
When everyone looked at each other, ecstasy appeared in their eyes, followed by the coldest worry.
Because this is the contact method that will only be used in the most urgent situation.
Is it a matter of life and death?
Yu Hongyang slammed the communication button and roared:
"Lu Geng——"
The rustling current brought intermittent sounds, extremely weak.
"Come here, help...help me."
The sound stopped suddenly.
Yu Hongyang froze on the spot, looking at the three construction pilots with red eyes, "We Hibiscus cannot leave out any one of us!"
When everyone's eyes met, they responded loudly:
"Hibiscus attacks!"
…
In an area three kilometers away from the edge, the formerly tall and burly Ranger mecha was now hunched over. On its 2-meter-tall body was a pair of 5-meter-long fangs as huge as door panels, not to mention hanging all over the body like grenades. Like a "grey egg".
There is also a ball about one meter in diameter hanging from the rope around his waist.
Lu Geng stepped on the dirt with one foot deeper and the other deeper.
The spoils of war were about to overwhelm the already exhausted man.
When Lu Geng heard the sudden interruption of communication in his ear, he patted his faceplate in dissatisfaction and muttered in a low voice: "Aren't these spiders dead? Why is the signal still so poor?"
"It should be a lair in another area." Lu Ze glanced at the humble Ranger mecha. For a brief moment, he felt unbearable, so he asked with concern: "Can you hold on?"
When the combat association identifies the killer of fog creatures, it generally relies on video when there are surveillance equipment near the defensive camp. However, in combat areas deep in the fog, officials are usually required to provide the mark of the dead creature.
Therefore, when Lu Geng disemboweled the giant spider, he also needed to remove a pair of mouthparts and fangs.
This caused Lu Geng's mecha's load to increase dozens of times.
A 0.3-ton mecha carrying 13 tons of cargo...
If Lu Geng's Ranger mecha hadn't been equipped with an all-terrain track assist device, he would have been pressed into the mud today.
"Lu Geng——"
"Lu Ze——"
Suddenly there was shouting in the distance.
Lu Ze and Lu Geng stopped at the same time. At the end of their sight, three construction mechas rushed towards them with billowing smoke and dust.
"I'm here!" Lu Geng cried out with tears in his eyes as he struggled.
After climbing over the fallen giant tree in front of them, the three mechas suddenly braked to a stop.
Then, like three petrified sculptures, they stared at the "hill" that Lu Geng was carrying.
"What are you still doing? Come here and help me!"
"I really can't carry it anymore." Lu Geng was suppressed and coughed several more times. He was extremely weak. His dual identity of being a prince and a porter made him almost out of breath.
Lu Ze, who was neatly dressed, smiled and waved as a greeting.
Han Zhen:......
Qi Yuan:......
Suo Qiang:......
Five minutes later, three slowly moving hills appeared around Lu Ze.
There are also three gloomy black faces hidden behind the cheeks.
…
…
In the hunting camp, a harsh alarm sounded, and all teams entered a state of emergency.
The communication room is already operating at full capacity.
"Unknown disaster discovered."
"The edge of the Bitter Forest Wetland has been attacked by foggy creatures, resulting in a large number of casualties. Please support us!"
"The data report is sent to the reconnaissance tower. It is extremely urgent. Please contact the command branch of the Combat Association!"
"Is there any reply from the reconnaissance tower?"
"Sir, yes, yes, the latest data from the Research Department of the Combat Association has been transmitted from the reconnaissance tower."
The preliminary data fed back by the scientific research department were instantly transmitted on the huge screen, with a picture of a dog running in the hilly area.
[Creature name: Terror-eating Spider; Threat: 5-star Zephyr level; First discovered location: Bitter Forest Wetland in the eastern area of Shangnan City; Habitat mode: Unknown; Attack method: venom, spinneret, jumping; Preliminary characteristics 1: Living in groups biology……】
[This recommendation: The safety level of Kulin Wetland is upgraded to a medium-risk area, and personnel should be evacuated as soon as possible. 】
Looking at the rows of accurate data, everyone swallowed their saliva. When they saw the last line of suggestions, some good-tempered people couldn't help but curse.
"Fuck you, we are a nanny area - a hunting camp! Not a reconnaissance tower with powerful mobile weapons! Let us, a group of less than four-star genetic warriors and construction pilots, rush to hundreds of Rescue a group of 5-star construct pilots from a swarm of Terror-eating Spiders? Did the Scientific Research Department have any brains when they said this! Don’t pull me... call me back, I’ll curse them to death!"
"Lao Tang, Lao Tang, hurry up and suppress Lao Tang."
"Lao Tang is right. All the firepower of our hunting camp is fixed on the protective wall. We rush over and we can't protect who. By the way, what does the branch headquarters say? Is the Yanhuang Combat Alliance involved in this beast wave? "
In the communications room, a group of people suppressed Lao Tang, who was about to explode, while the person in charge quickly arranged for connections with many parties.
It's messed up, it's all messed up.
Communication was interrupted, so that the feedback received from the hunting camp was now extremely limited. The incomplete information obtained the moment it was restored already made people feel chilly.
Of the sixty combat teams that went out, more than thirty teams have experienced combat attrition.
Preliminary statistics include 39 pilots killed and 54 injured, and this number is increasing rapidly.
Suddenly, the correspondent shouted.
"coming!"
"Information from the Shangnan Branch Headquarters has arrived. The G71 Defense Area Reconnaissance Tower Garrison Corps has launched an attack. The Yanhuang Battle Alliance has summoned genetic warriors within 20 kilometers to participate in the rescue."
"At the same time, the Combat Association officially releases a bounty for the new species."
[Five-star reward: Hunting the Terror-eating Spider (valid for 24 hours)]——
"Hunting the latest species of 5-star threat-eating spiders, during the bounty period, the hunter will receive additional points (+50 points/head) and additional monetary rewards (+5,000 yuan/head)."
The anxious people in the communication room instantly collapsed in their positions.
The Combat Association has finally officially taken action, and this final bounty will greatly stimulate combat teams in other areas.
With a three-pronged approach, I hope those combatants outside at this moment can return safely and triumphantly.
"By the way, which teams are fighting deep into the Kulin Wetland today?"
"There is only one team, the Hibiscus Team." The correspondent checked the monitoring data and said with difficulty.
After a long silence, a sigh sounded in the room.
"May the stars bless them."
