The last energy wave from the light pillar only means the final shape of the gelatinous core. At this time, the real battle has just begun.
At the forefront of the trestle, Chen Tieyi did not feel anyone's eyes falling on him. In fact, at this time, most of the creatures, including him, focused their sights on the center of the light beam.
Chen Tieyi struggled to open his eyes in the dazzling bright light. He saw the light pillar quickly shattering, and the fragments turned into dots of silver light that flew around and soon disappeared in the air.
And in the air half a meter above the ground, four almond-sized monochromatic droplets were suspended. They are four regular, perfect spheres, one green and three red, which are really beautiful. Everyone knew—the heart-piercing throb they had felt since just now came from these four mysterious colorful droplets.
With a "swipe" sound, a shadow moved extremely fast, taking away all four cores in an instant.
It was Chen Tieyi. He had arrived at the end of the trestle at some point and held a wooden box with one hand. In the hollow box, four spherical droplets were floating as if they were weightless.
The Port City Base was indeed well prepared. According to Chen Biantao's guess, energy crystals similar to spore crystal nuclei may be produced here after the turmoil, so they prepared the container in advance, which was the pocket wooden box in Chen Tieyi's hand.
They don't know that this is actually called a gel core, and it is a good thing that can promote evolutionary creatures to make further progress. Chen Tieyi did not dare to touch these colorful droplets directly. Although holding this thing, the desire to "devour" in his heart became stronger, but the tragedy half a month ago was still vivid in his mind.
Chen Tieyi knows that no matter how fragrant a rose is, it may have thorns. In the end of the world, this kind of thorn may contain "violent poison" that can kill people, so he has to be careless.
On the other side, the aura of the gelatin core suddenly disappeared, but in an instant, it appeared again on a man's body.
For a moment, all the evolved creatures focused their attention on Chen Tieyi. To be precise, they gathered on the wooden box in Chen Tieyi's hand. Although Chen Tieyi has experienced hundreds of battles, facing hundreds of mutated creatures, a thin layer of cold sweat can't help but break out on his forehead.
The small wooden box has now become a huge vortex that can stir up the storm on the battlefield. And in the whirlpool, wouldn't a small human evolver be easily torn to pieces? As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, but now Chen Tieyi has to face hundreds or even thousands of enemies?
Chen Jiayi, who was outside the battle circle, immediately realized the huge danger contained here. She wanted to escape for rescue, but she was still far away, so how could she get there in time?
Suddenly, as if after a discussion, all the evolved creatures present fell into collective madness.
They didn't need to know the name of the thing in Chen Tieyi's hand. Adrenaline had already done the thinking for them. In a very short period of time, the airways in the organism expand, prompting the body to deliver more oxygen to the lungs at the same time, directly improving the mutant organism's short-term physiological burst capability.
When he realized something was wrong, Chen Tieyi had already prepared a defensive posture, but the speed of those mutated creatures was not slow at all!
The zombie birds and mutated birds in the sky went crazy, scrambling to huddle together and swoop down.
The snakes on the ground went crazy. One by one they arched their bodies and jumped in front of the soldiers' guns, just to swim forward faster and further.
On the sea surface, several mutated dolphins with sharp fangs jumped high, their blue eyes not hiding their desire for the molten core.
On the beach, stone crabs as big as wolfdogs crawled forward despite the hail of bullets. In the jungle, dozens of venomous snakes that were several times thicker than similar snakes suddenly sprang out. They twisted their bodies and surpassed all their kind at an unprecedented speed, intending to break through the defense line and be the first to benefit.
"Hiss-"
A primitive spear-headed viper jumped among the soldiers with a triangular head. Although it has no intention of hurting anyone, it just wants to get the gelatin core as early as possible. But these soldiers blocked its way, so it was bitten on the neck.
"ah--"
"Go to hell!"
The viper was chopped into four pieces by the angry soldiers, but the soldiers were also poisoned by extremely toxic blood circulation poison. After a while, the wound became swollen and black, and he fell to the ground on his back.
Next, there are the "silver footbands" with small round heads and black and white rings on their bodies; there are also the sharp-nosed vipers called five-step snakes with round bodies; there are also many fast-moving Zhoushan cobras and A small number of kraits.
The largest ones were several king cobras. They broke through the blockade immediately and approached Chen Tieyi in the center of the battlefield in less than three seconds. Although they felt threatened by this man, the several king cobras had only one target at this moment.
Yawen Library
The Snake King spits out a message, aiming at the gelatinous core that is just around the corner!
But how could Chen Tieyi let it happen. At the critical moment, Chen Tieyi, who was fighting a fierce battle with a giant rock crab, punched the giant rock crab in a distracted manner, knocking the giant rock crab into pieces.
After the stone crab was defeated, he struggled to throw out his left arm.
"go!"
No one expected that the much-anticipated wooden box would be thrown far away on the beach by Chen Tieyi. There are no troops from the Jiuge Mountain Brigade stationed there, but it is a tidal flat area full of monsters.
If these king cobras were intelligent, they would be confused at this time. Because the man in front of him abandoned the key key that could open the path to evolution, and his unhesitating look exceeded the expectations of all the creatures present.
Is it because he is afraid of death? If you weren't afraid of death, why would you throw away such a valuable treasure?
For a moment, confusion did not appear in the hearts of several snake kings. At this time, they took advantage of their small brain capacity. After being stunned for a moment, the King Cobra left Chen Tieyi behind and rushed towards the landing point of the wooden box without looking back.
They are like lost people who have fallen from joy to death. Chen Tieyi, who has lost his gelatinous core, is usually a delicious and perfect prey in their eyes, but at this moment, he is wearing a pair of shoes, and he seems to be too lazy to even take a look at it. Saw it.
"Brother Tieyi, get out of there quickly, we don't want that ghost thing anymore!"
Chen Jiayi, who was in the outer battle circle, shouted anxiously.
She also didn't understand what Chen Tieyi was doing, but in her opinion, this was a good opportunity for Chen Tieyi to escape. As for those few colorful droplets with no clear meaning, they must be taken with a life. Didn’t you see the mutant monsters all over the beach surrounding it?
At the same time, the giant stone crab in front of Chen Tieyi, which was as big as a car, was about to slowly turn around and rush to the place where the Jiao Rong Core fell, but was suddenly caught by the man behind him. leg.
Chen Tieyi, who ignored Chen Jiayi's warning, gritted his teeth and slowly clenched his palms tightly.
"Hey, big guy. Did I say you could leave?"
If this guy hadn't stopped him, he would have had a chance to escape with the wooden box just now.
"Kakaka-"
The giant rock crab's other hind leg struck like lightning. Chen Tieyi was suddenly hit, but he only took two steps back.
"Ding."
The iron rod-like crab legs hit the chainmail, and the huge force didn't even leave a mark on his body.
In a flash of lightning, this man took action. The bronzed muscle lines shone under the combination of sunlight and sweat. He raised his elbow to strike horizontally, and twisted his waist to use all his strength.
"Click."
The one the giant stone crab was caught retreated and snapped.
Chen Tieyi has practiced Guangquan since he was a child. It is a martial art practiced by ancient wolf soldiers to kill enemies on the battlefield. When not taking action, it is as motionless as a mountain. Once it does, it will be fierce and domineering.
"Zi, Zhi——"
The pain of the giant stone crab could be heard in the sharp screams, but Chen Tieyi ignored it. He punched, elbowed, shouldered, and kneeled. The huge force formed a series of attacks, and he vented them all through his pair of fists covered with straps. On a giant stone crab.
Once, once, and again...
The car-like behemoth, with a calcareous shell that is harder than ordinary rocks, has cracks like fishnets appearing one after another at this moment...
Section 2
While the fighting was going on on the coast, no one seemed to notice what was happening in the sea.
As time passed, the impact of glue core molding finally spread further to sea. Looking down from a high altitude, silvery white waves are constantly rolling up on the crystal blue sea. These waves are small but huge in number. Together they form a tide that is ten meters wide and a hundred meters long. The tide was moving forward so rapidly that the sea looked like it was boiling.
"Woo buzz——"
Suddenly, a long machine beep sounded.
In a sparkling bay three thousand meters away from the beach, a silver-white naval ship gradually sailed eastward, gradually passing over the islands and reefs to reveal its tip. First is the fully enclosed bow painted in silver gray, and then what comes into view are three large numbers on the bow - 171, which represents the hull number of the warship.
This is already the third generation Haikou ship. It was affiliated to the Guangzhou Military Region before the disaster and is currently the backbone of the fleet directly under the Chen family.
Before, it was hidden among several small islands and reefs, and all the ship's equipment was on standby and silent. Only then did it appear in people's sight, as if it had been waiting for this moment.
The 180-meter-long ship was as tall as a mountain when viewed up close, and it quickly blocked the path of the "silver white tide".
"Level 1 combat readiness status!"
At this moment, a rapid alarm sounded on the ship, and all personnel in all departments and rooms entered the combat position. Soldiers with different identities wore earphones, fastened their safety belts, and fastened themselves firmly to their seats, waiting attentively for the first officer's call. Next command.
"Sir, the sonar is responding, the fish school is less than two thousand meters away from us!"
"On the port side of the bow, a large number of mutant seagulls appeared at coordinates 1-9-6. The number is estimated to be between 1,000 and 1,500. The distance is less than 300 meters!"
The first mate raised his right fist heavily and waved it down: "The whole ship is on alert! All kinds of close defense weapons
The device is on standby. 24 rockets fired rapidly! "
"Yes, anti-submarine rocket depth bombs, ready, release!"
With the permission of the chief mate, the gunner commander gave an order, and the noncommissioned officer sitting next to him immediately pressed the control button.
"Fire!"
"Swish swish——"
Four six-tube rocket launchers fire at the same time. The system's fully automatic aiming response time does not exceed 15 seconds, and the interval between consecutive launches is 3 seconds. Just like this, twenty-four rockets, no more than one meter long, rushed into the sky at a 45-degree angle, dragging orange-red tail flames, and flew quickly towards the intended target.
Rocket depth charges, as the name suggests, are depth charges launched by rockets. By relying on rocket-assisted technology to fly at high speeds in the air, anti-submarine depth bombs escape the resistance limitations of water and can fly at ten times the underwater speed of ordinary torpedoes.
Small in size and low in cost, but with dense firepower, rocket depth bombs are miraculous in fighting mines and frogmen. They have been installed on warships of all levels all year round and are truly the little brothers on ships. But even the little brother still carries 20 kilograms of shaped energy directional blasting explosives, which can hit underwater targets within 60 meters at close range and up to 3,000 meters at long range. This time the fish school is just within the range of the rocket depth bomb. within!
"Wow——"
Soon the rocket was guided to the predetermined distance, the separator abandoned the rocket engine, and the combat head lost power and splashed into the water. After the deep bomb dives under the influence of gravity for 0.5 seconds, the active sonar homing device is immediately turned on and quickly receives target reflection signals within a range of 130 meters. The steering gear moved to control the hydrodynamic rudder and change the movement direction of the warhead. A moment later, 24 depth bombs exploded in the water directly below the fish school!
"Boom boom boom——"
The density of seawater is 1,000 times that of air. The energy transferred by an explosion of the same amount is 1,000 times greater underwater than in air! 24 anti-submarine depth bombs exploded one after another, causing shock waves to repeatedly vibrate in the seawater. The destructive power was extremely powerful and was enough to tear apart any organic life form within the center of the explosion.
"Hit, hit!" Chief Guan Tong, who was in charge of visual observation, shouted excitedly.
The first mate also praised heavily: "Well done!"
In order to attack fish schools, the depth of the depth bomb was set relatively shallow this time, so you can see with the naked eye on the sea surface that the depth bomb exploded and stirred up a water curtain up to tens of meters high. The water curtain is dyed crimson, which is undoubtedly the blood of those mutated creatures, and is also proof of the achievements of anti-submarine deep bombs.
Under the sea, even on the verge of the explosion, countless fish were killed, injured, and stunned. The rest of the mutant sea tribes noticed the danger signal and dispersed in all directions.
Compared with the fish, the seagulls in the sky came faster. When the rocket was launched, people could already see the large shadows formed by the mutated seagulls on the sea that covered the sky.
They flew close to the sea surface and raised their altitude in advance when they were about to approach the Haikou ship. They seemed to want to pass the warship and rush to the beach battlefield. The fight for the gelatin core is coming to an end, and one can feel that these mutated creatures are feeling more anxious than ever before.
It is conceivable that once these thousands of mutant creatures arrive on the beach, regardless of the outcome of the core battle, the remaining mutant creatures will greatly threaten the lives of the officers and soldiers of the Dove Mountain Brigade!
All the officers and soldiers of the Haikou ship will never allow this to happen!
For the sake of their comrades and the life and death of their brothers, they are willing to put themselves in danger!
"Prepare close-in defense artillery, fire two salvos."
"Yes, two volleys of close-in defense artillery fire, fire!"
"Fire!"
"Buzz——"
The 11 30mm close-in defense guns opened fire without warning, and the sound of the guns was deafening, almost cascading into pieces. The gunfire, red on the outside and orange on the inside, turned the sky red, and the bullet casings gradually covered the entire deck like water splashing.
The close-in defense gun equipped on the Haikou ship can theoretically fire 11,000 shells per minute, making it a veritable "10,000-shot gun." Of course, it is difficult for the magazine of the close-in defense gun to support this kind of "phalanx" rapid fire for too long. This time, the close-in defense gun actually works for only 25 seconds.
Driven by the integrated optoelectronic system, the turret automatically aims at incoming targets and fires automatically. Even supersonic missiles can be intercepted 2,000 meters away, let alone these flesh and blood!
A 30mm shell penetrated one seagull and broke half of the other one behind it. Some mutated seagulls didn't even bother to hum before they were blown up into bloody mist. More seagulls were "grazed" by the shells in the panic and died directly.
After 25 seconds, the sound of cannons suddenly stopped, and the world suddenly fell into silence. The fort was surrounded by slowly drifting gray smoke. There were shell casings a foot deep on the deck, and the sea surface was covered with a thick layer of blood, minced meat and feathers.
The mutated birds were all wiped out.
"Oh~" There was a cheer in the command room.
Almost everyone except the logistics department of the Haikou ship is very satisfied with the results of this battle...
Ten hours to reload, ten seconds to shoot.
Ah, my hands hurt just thinking about it...
