The huge planet quietly occupied a small half of the sky. It was no different from before, and it didn't look like it would change again.
Chu Jungui no longer struggled with the question of whether he slept well last night, but greeted: "Kaitian, map."
Kaitian floated over and projected a three-dimensional map with extremely lifelike details. This map is the map in Chu Jungui's memory. It can see all the areas that have been discovered and explored from the initial area to the present. However, Chu Jungui did not have the ability to project for the time being, and it happened to be more professional in Kaitian, so Chu Jungui was too lazy to get himself a laser-emitting organ.
On the map, the 50 kilometers around the camp have been basically explored, but there are quite a few blind spots between 50 and 100 kilometers away. As for beyond 100 kilometers, only a few areas are lit.
Chu Jungui pointed to the northeast and said: "Both ape monsters appeared from this direction. The village I cleaned was also in this area. Now it can be basically concluded that they came from here. And their The base camp is probably here!”
Chu Jungui pointed to the outside of the map, and it was still quite far away. Seeing this, Kaitian quickly expanded the map area. But its projection power was limited, so it specifically extended to where Chu Jungui's finger was. Looking at the direction Chu Jungui pointed, it was more than 600 kilometers away from the camp. It seemed that it would be difficult to get through for a while.
Chu Jungui pointed to the east and west and said: "The explorers we see are basically in these two directions. There are very few in the north and south. My initial area is in the south, and the explorers in that area are There doesn’t seem to be much. As for the north, it should be a high-risk area, and it is also the route for the ape monsters to go south. Probably all the explorers were wiped out by the ape monsters.”
Chu Jungui looked at Lin Xi: "It's clear now, east or west?"
"East."
"Okay, then we will explore 100 kilometers due east today. Kaitian, you will guard the camp and there will be a crossbow. No matter who approaches the camp, we will kill them without mercy. Do you understand?"
Kaitian became murderous: "Don't worry, I won't save medical resources for the dynasty."
"Huh?" Chu Jungui always felt that there was something wrong with Kaitian's words.
Lin Xi asked: "You don't seem to want to cause trouble with the ape monsters, but you want to clean up the explorers first?"
Chu Jun returned and said: "Before I came in this time, the task assigned to me by the doctor was: survive and make it difficult for others to survive."
"This is simple." Lin Xi picked up an electromagnetic rifle and carried it behind his back, then brought a short bow and 100 arrows. As for melee weapons, use a serrated sword. This thing can chop and saw, and can also be mounted on an electromagnetic rifle and used as a chopping knife.
Chu Jungui carried two extra sets of batteries on his back in case the electromagnetic rifle or magnetic-powered short bow failed.
The two left the camp and ran towards the east.
At this time, the roar continued to echo over the swamp. The swamp trees and their vines were uprooted in the explosion, and the swamp water and countless small creatures inside flew into the air. Flying into the sky together were a large number of ape monsters.
"Interrupt fire! Release!"
Accompanied by the orders, artillery fire continued to roar, creating a death zone 300 to 500 meters outside the camp.
In the smoke of gunpowder, the federal battle flag was flapping, and it was constantly being blown upright by the air current. The small camp that was originally only 10*10 meters now has a small platform of 3*3 meters on each corner. The platform extends outwards and has a design idea of edge protection. There is now a large-caliber mortar mounted on each of the two platforms, and the shells are being fired rapidly at the swarm of apes and monsters.
There were countless ape monsters running back and forth around the camp, constantly raining arrows on the camp walls. Some ape monsters were carrying heavy weapons such as hammers and axes, and they were smashing the camp walls hard. Their small bodies contain amazing power, and they can often chop up a large piece of wood with just one strike of an axe.
Fortunately, the camp was built very solidly. The middle of the two wooden walls was filled with hardened plaster. In addition, a layer of reinforcement slopes was built at the base of the camp wall. The height of the camp wall is 6 meters, and the angle of the reinforced slope is also very steep. There are sharp blades inserted in it, so the ape monster has no good solution at the moment.
Above the camp wall, the explorers were shooting wildly, constantly killing the ape monsters wandering around. There are also a few people who have heavy armor and battle axes, and hold a short-barreled shotgun in their left hand, specifically responsible for killing the ape monsters that have climbed up the camp wall. There were three shooters placed on the guard tower, and the rhythmic gunshots showed that they were three experienced and precise shooters.
The leader of the camp stood on the wall of the camp, raised his gun and fired three shots in a row, killing two ape monsters. However, the third shot was slightly missed, and one shot was shot between the chest and abdomen. The ape monster flew out upside down, struggled on the ground for a few times, and actually got up again. There was a bloody hole between its chest and abdomen, but it actually jumped up again, as if it had not been injured.
A young explorer on the left of the leader shook his hand and missed his shot. He watched helplessly as the seriously injured ape monster rushed towards him. He was so frightened that he remained motionless.
The leader rushed over from the side, knocked the ape monster away with a shoulder bump, then pressed it to the ground, pulled out a short knife and stabbed it several times at the wounds on its chest and abdomen, then stood up and put the knife that was still there. The twitching ape monster was thrown outside the camp wall. The leader picked up the young explorer and roared: "Fight, fight! If you stay stunned, you will die!"
The explorer tremblingly leaned out of the city wall, suddenly burst into hysterical shouting, fired desperately, emptied the magazine in a blink of an eye, and then screamed and smashed the gun.
As soon as the gun left his hand, he knew it was broken. However, at this moment, a warm and strong hand pressed on his shoulder. When he turned around, he saw the vicissitudes of life and the majestic face of the leader. The leader pulled out the short-barreled shotgun from his waist, put it into his hand, and said, "Use mine. Besides, the sound of the scream is not as good as the sound of gunfire."
The leader patted him on the shoulder, then turned around, stabbed a climbing ape monster with several knives, and kicked the body off the camp wall. The young explorer suddenly had the courage to point his gun at an ape monster that was rushing towards him in the air. The muzzle of the gun was almost touching his chest. Then he pulled the trigger hard and roared: "Go to hell!!"
The ape monster was blown backwards by the huge force, and its entire chest and abdomen were covered in blood and flesh, and then it stopped moving.
The fierce fighting continued, but the artillery fire suddenly stopped. The leader was instantly furious. When he looked back, he saw only a pile of empty ammunition boxes next to the mortar. He waved to the four gunners and shouted: "Take your guns and come here to help!"
After an unknown amount of time, the battle finally ended. Most of the explorers collapsed on the ground, their eyes empty and dull. The leader sat on the ammunition box on the wall, squinting his eyes slightly and looking at the planets on the sky against the sunlight.
The planet is grey-blue, not a bit red.
An explorer sat down next to him, handed over a cigarette rolled with grass leaves, and said, "Boss, would you like one?"
The leader took the cigarette, took a puff silently, and subconsciously glanced at the planets in the sky again.
The senior explorer also looked at the planet, then cursed and said, "Isn't this a catastrophe?"
"It doesn't look like that." The leader's voice was completely hoarse.
The senior explorer handed over another bottle of water, sighed, and said: "If the disaster still happens tonight, we will have nothing to stop us. A total of 200 rounds of artillery shells were all used up just now!"
A tough and unruly explorer in the camp below raised his head and said, "If you can't stand it, just stand up. What's there to be afraid of? Aren't there enough places for us to share?"
The senior explorer sneered: "Quota? What's the use of quota? Everyone can die up to three times. Can the quota allow us to come in one more time? The quota will only make a lot of rookies around us!"
The tough explorer also fell silent, and then spit heavily.
"That's enough." The leader walked up to the young explorer who was huddled in the corner like a chicken, pointed at the three sets of armors placed in the center of the camp, and said, "Did you see it? They have no chance to come in again. Next. If you still can't prove yourself in this battle, then I will kick you out of the camp and let you explore alone. Fight hard, kid, you will die anyway whether you fight or not, so why not die with dignity."
"You, you can't drive me out! I, I am from the Tudor family..." The second half of the words turned into a scream, and the leader stuffed the half-smoked cigarette into his mouth, using The burning end then closed his jaw firmly.
The rookie's face turned red and his eyes were full of fear.
The leader said every word: "Listen, boy, I don't care who you are outside or who you have at home. When you get here, when you get to my camp, you have to listen to me! Here, I am the law, I am God! I know you want to ask me why, just because I can lead you through one more disaster, that little shit family behind you is nothing in front of me!"
The leader pointed at the explorers who were still busy dragging their tired bodies and said: "Look at these people, yes, they are all here to make money. They can do nothing except fight and survive. If they don't have this money, then Maybe they will become mercenaries or killers, and then die in a stinking ditch in a back street some night. Have you seen old Mike? He has died three times, and this is the fourth time. No one I don’t know what will happen to him after he goes out this time. As for why, there is no reason. He needs this money, even if he lives a messy second half of his life. As for where the money is used, I don’t want to know. And like old Mike , there are 8 of them in this camp!”
The leader finally let go of the hand holding the young explorer's chin, patted his face, and said: "Since you want to make this money, then show some way of making money. No one here is your father, nor is anyone here. This is your mother. Okay, stop crying and get up to work, boy! There may be a battle waiting for us tonight!"
The young explorer stood up and joined the procession of clearing away the bodies.
