The team that was originally gathering slowly was assembled in a short time and rushed out of the No. 101 Flying Star base.

This is an extremely large team, with a total of three hundred soldiers.

The overall strength of the team is also quite impressive. The lowest ones are those with second-level cultivation in the Star Connecting Realm, and there are as many as thirty Star Warriors in the Broken Star Realm.

There are even ten mechas in this team, including five battle mechas and five fortress mechas each.

On the real battlefield, even if a mecha war breaks out, not all Star Soldiers will fly large mechas.

Large mechas are not only expensive to build, but also expensive to repair and maintain.

Therefore, in mature corps, large-scale mecha warriors and ordinary mecha warriors are often deployed in a certain proportion.

However, teams that can deploy large mechas when performing missions are often elite units of the military.

This team was obviously composed of mercenaries, but they still used ten large mechas, which shows the special nature of this operation.

Sitting on the armored vehicle, Qin Xiao's mind was a little confused.

The strong man who suddenly found Wen Yuan in the base was named Wen Ji. He was the commander of this mercenary team.

The change in the situation that Wen Ji mentioned was that a group of red ant beasts suddenly rushed in within the range of the Misty Flame Beast. The number of those red ant beasts was so large that it was equivalent to a medium-sized beast wave.

If other strange beasts appear within the range of the Misty Flame Beast, it may not cause Wen Ji and the others to worry.

However, red ant beasts naturally like to feed on flames, and Lanyan beasts are the most delicious food in their eyes.

Moreover, the Red Ant Beast has extremely low intelligence. Once they discover the Lanyan Beast, the entire group will definitely attack them.

If this is really the case, Wen Ji and his team's capture operation will definitely end in failure. After all, it will be meaningless if they get a dead Misty Flame Beast.

So the team set off in a hurry, just to catch the Lanyan Beast before the Red Ant Beast discovered it.

if not……

Then destroy the red ant beast first!

The reason why Qin Xiao is a little confused now is because he is worried that the red ant beast will find the lair of the mist flame beast.

Although the Lanyan Beast was powerful, it had just given birth, so it and its cubs must be in a weak stage.

Facing a large number of red ant beasts, even those as powerful as the Lanyan Beast can only run away.

But the problem is that the Lanyan Beast will definitely not take its eggshell with it when it escapes.

But those eggshells are also a delicacy for red ant beasts!

Qin Xiao was worried about the disappearance of the eggshell. He didn't care whether the Lanyan Beast would be targeted or even killed by the Red Ant Beast.

If he couldn't get the Lanyan Beast's eggshell, this operation would be a complete failure for him.

Three hours later, this elite mercenary team arrived at the designated location.

The battlefield that appeared in front of them was a lush forest. According to the information obtained by Wen Ji's men, the Lanyan Beast had been hiding in this forest.

"Do you want to join us?" Wen Yuan asked after getting off the armored vehicle.

"I will take my people and follow the large army. After encountering the Misty Flame Beast, I will rush over to join you." Qin Xiao immediately replied.

"Okay, contact me at any time." Wen Yuan said a few words and immediately rushed out with the others.

Wen Yuan and the other five special recruits he brought with him came here to besiege the Misty Flame Beast. They formed the main attack team with the other Shattered Star Realm warriors in the mercenary group.

During the search for the Misty Flame Beast, Qin Xiao did not need to cooperate with them. He only needed to take action during the final battle.

Qin Xiao slowly walked into the forest with Hu Yange and others. Their battle was to prove the effect of the previous special training, and they were not in a hurry to make meritorious deeds.

As a four-person team, they couldn't form a formation like a normal ten-person mecha team.

They can only have Haishan Mountain at the front of the team, Qin Xiao and Hu Yange guarding the left and right, and Zhao Ruling behind.

"The strength of the red ant beasts is not very strong. Most of the red ant beasts are only at the first level throughout their lives. Their frontal combat capabilities are not strong, and their offensive methods are extremely lacking."

"But the red ant beast will spit out acid before it dies. This acid is extremely corrosive. Star energy weapons and mechanical light armor cannot escape the corrosion of the acid."

"In the event of a battle, be sure to use star energy weapons to strike from a distance. Even if the red ant beast rushes in front of you, try to only cut off their bodies and don't think about killing them."

As Qin Xiao walked away, he reminded Huyange and others.

Haishan looked bitter and said helplessly: "Then what should I do? My task is to help you block the frontal impact of the red ant beast."

"According to circumstances!" Qin Xiao gave an answer that made Haishan vomit blood.

In fact, he could teach Haishan how to deal with the red ant beast, but he didn't want to have to do everything himself to teach Haishan.

There will come a time when he needs to stand alone, and sometimes trusting his own judgment is more important than following orders.

Qin Xiao still remembers the invitation Shao Ming sent to him when he was transforming Haishan's body.

Haishan has hope of piloting the Great Wall Fortress Mecha. When he is strong enough, Qin Xiao will recommend him to test drive the Great Wall Fortress Mecha.

Once he truly becomes a member of the Great Wall Project, Haishan will have to make his own decisions in future battles.

Fortunately, Haishan is not a wooden person who only follows orders. When a large number of red ant beasts encountered them, Haishan's performance was perfect.

Not only did he perfectly block all the attacks from the front of the team, but he also used the most primitive method to fight the enemy - knock them away.

Haishan's power has already exceeded tens of thousands of kilograms. Under the heavy punch, the weak red ant beast can't resist it at all.

Many red ant beasts are already dead when they fly upside down, and they don't even have a chance to spit out acid until they die.

Zhao Ruling's performance also satisfied Qin Xiao. She has a strong talent in shooting, and it can be seen that she has been training hard in this area since she was a child.

A continuous-fire Saida machine gun was like a MiG heavy sniper in her hand. Every time she fired, a red ant beast was killed, and it was a headshot.

Her shooting was very rhythmic, as if she was firing in bursts or sweeping fire, and under the continuous gunshots, swarms of red ant beasts fell down. 33

In comparison, the performances of Qin Xiao and Hu Yange seemed mediocre.

Neither Qin Xiao nor Huyange likes to use star energy weapons to attack the enemy from a distance, but in this kind of battle they have to use this method.

The result was that the two of them fired desperately with their Saida machine guns, using their abundant star power reserves to severely attack the red ant beast.

Although the firepower is fierce, the accuracy is really impressive.

However, Qin Xiao and Huyange did this because they did not want to consume too much star power in this kind of battle.

Star power weapons will not consume too much star power when shooting unless they are shooting accurately.

The red ant beasts that appeared in this dense forest have reached the size of a medium-sized beast tide, which means that their number has reached at least tens of thousands, or even twenty or thirty thousand.

Although the entire mercenary team is very efficient in killing enemies, the overall advancement speed of the team is not very optimistic.

The battle in the beast tide must be carried out steadily, otherwise a mistake may cause the team to fall into a bitter battle.

Based on the overall configuration of their team, it is impossible for the team to be wiped out by the medium-sized beast tide of red ant beasts, but if they do not fight well, the casualties of the team will indeed be very high.

Suddenly, while advancing, Qin Xiao heard a message asking for help on his transmitter.

After identifying the coordinates of the other party's request for help, Qin Xiao decided to rush over to provide support immediately.

Hu Yange felt somewhat surprised by Qin Xiao's rescue decision.

Based on his understanding of Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao is not the kind of person who likes to be a good person. Doing such a thankless thing does not seem to be in line with his style of doing things.

Zhao Ruling saw Huyange's doubts and explained in a low voice: "During the battle, assisting teammates is to protect yourself. If one more teammate is alive, there will be one more point to share firepower."

In fact, Zhao Ruling didn't understand this truth at first. It was the time she met Qin Xiao on Flying Star No. 79 that made her understand this truth.

Huyange nodded. He was not disgusted with the rescue. He was just curious.

After arriving at the scene of the incident, Qin Xiao found that the team calling for help was a standard ten-man mecha team, but they were surrounded by a large number of red ant beasts near a giant sequoia tree.

Seeing someone coming for help, the captain on the opposite side immediately used the transmitter to remind: "There are some mutants among these red ant beasts, be careful."

Qin Xiao's brows immediately furrowed when he heard about the mutated red ant beast.

The red ant beast is a typical low-level alien beast, and the probability of mutation is extremely low.

There may not be even one mutated red ant beast among the hundreds of thousands of red ant beasts, but several of them can appear here, which makes Qin Xiao feel vaguely uneasy.

Qin Xiao soon discovered the mutated red ant beast among the red ant beasts, and immediately ordered Haishan to protect Zhao Ruling and hide under another giant sequoia tree.

The body of ordinary red ant beasts is only about one meter long. They are actually large ants with protruding mouthparts, like sickles. Their attack method is to bite with their mouthparts.

But in this group of red ants, there are five huge red ant beasts with a body length of more than three meters and mouthparts that are half a meter long.

These red ant beasts obviously did not suffer a fatal blow, but there was always acid flowing out of their mouthparts.

The acid flowing out will even hurt other ordinary red ant beasts around them, but they don't care about it.

"Zhao Ruling, switch to MiG heavy sniper, try to aim at the mutated red ant beast's mouthparts."

After confirming that Zhao Ruling was in place, Qin Xiao immediately issued an order.

There are hundreds of red ant beasts here, and even Qin Xiao does not dare to rush into the herd to fight.

Zhao Ruling had already changed his gun. Following Qin Xiao's order, a dull gunshot sounded, and then a shrill scream came from the beasts on the opposite side.

This shot exploded the mutated red ant beast's mouthparts with great accuracy. A huge gap was opened in the mutated red ant beast's mouth, and a large amount of acid sprayed around.

The ordinary red ant beasts around were unable to dodge at all, and they were all affected by the sprayed acid, and screams broke out for a while.

"Good marksmanship!"

Qin Xiao couldn't help but praise, and then continued to order: "Kill the other mutated ones, don't worry about the ammunition."

Some people died, but not completely...
