The vanguard troops were also attacked by monsters. A huge monster spider that hid its body landed out of thin air. No one knew how it came to the top of the team. Its huge tail spit out large strands of silk, and behind it Several soldiers were wrapped in, and then the silk thread was recovered and directly pulled those soldiers closer. The demon spider stretched out its thick tentacles to grab the soldiers tightly, and slashed at the demon spider's tentacles with the sword in its hand, but it was sharp The sword struck the tentacles and made a sound of gold and iron. The carapace on the demon spider was as strong as fine steel!
The soldiers struggled hard, but the more they struggled, the tighter the spider webs became. As the demon spider stretched out its sharp mouthparts and penetrated their bodies, under the action of neurotoxins and tissue-dissolving toxins, these soldiers were very They almost stopped struggling. They were completely paralyzed by the toxin. The internal bones and internal organs of the body were dissolved into a puddle of liquid, like bottles of carbonated drinks waiting to be opened. The demon spider greedily swallowed the soldiers. After sucking it clean, it stretched out its thick tentacles and threw the soldier's shriveled skin out casually. It licked its sharp mouthparts, as if it still had some unfinished thoughts.
Yang Shen's eyes were splitting when he saw this scene happening. These were the most capable warriors under his command, and they actually became a delicious meal in the monster's belly. The other soldiers gathered and wanted to lay siege to the monster spider, but Yang Can The general has already realized the gap. With the demon spider's carapace as strong as fine steel, it will be useless for other soldiers to rush forward and it will only cause a lot of casualties.
"Everyone, stay back and support the rear guard. I'll deal with it alone!"
General Yang Shen shouted back the people who wanted to help, then he clenched the sword in his hand and rushed towards the demon spider. The huge body of the demon spider also moved with the swing of its eight legs, and it stretched out from the front The two thick legs were like two sickles slashing towards General Yang Shen, trying to cut off this tiny human being.
Yang Shen would dodge to avoid the swing of the steps, then step on the thick steps, use the strength to jump up high, and chop the demon spider's head with the sword in his hand!
The demon spider stretched out two thick legs to block the blade, but the special thing about the Zhanma Sword is that the blade is thick. When General Yang wields it with all his strength, it looks more like a war hammer than a war knife. The demon spider The spider's two legs were directly smashed by the powerful force. It felt the pain and let out a tragic roar, dragging the two broken legs towards General Yang Shen.
Yang Shenjiang lowered his body, trying to avoid the incoming attack, but he suddenly discovered that at some point, a huge spider web had opened under his feet. The extremely sticky spider web stuck to the military boots on his feet, and the He was stuck in place, unable to move, and at this moment, the sharp mouthparts of the demon spider were already in front of him.
"Set! Sun! Cut!"
General Yang's face showed a determined expression, and a blood-red glow of the setting sun condensed all over his body. The sword in his hand was also stained with a red glow. He raised the sword above his head and faced the approaching The demon spider slashed out a dazzling bloody sword light.
The momentum of the demon spider's attack came to an abrupt end. After suffering this blow, the three intact legs on its right half were directly cut off. The remaining three legs could not even maintain balance, let alone support its huge body. It fell to the ground dying, white liquid flowing out of its ferocious mouth, which was the blood of the demon spider.
General Yang Shen, who wielded the huge sword light, was also a little tired. As a monk whose goal is to exercise his body, his magic power is highly integrated with his body. If he uses it too much at once, he will feel weak. The monks who use magical powers are different. The goal of the body-building monks is to turn themselves into human-shaped magic weapons, so the spiritual energy of heaven and earth absorbed will be integrated into the bones and flesh, and the skills they practice are mostly violent and willful.
Yang Shenjiang walked towards the demon spider in front of him with his sword. It lowered its head and its huge body was motionless, as if it was dead. But when Yang Shenjiang was about to approach it, it suddenly raised its head and started to move. A stream of emerald green venom was ejected from the sharp mouthparts, but Yang Shenjiang had already seen the trick of this beast. He raised his sword and lightly deflected the incoming venom, then leaned close to the demon spider. , the sword slashed towards its head, and the entire sword blade penetrated into the demon spider's skull. Yang Shen clenched the handle of the knife with both hands and exerted force, directly cutting off the demon spider's huge head.
General Yang Shen inserted his sword into the ground and took a deep breath. He stopped a soldier passing by and said, "Collect personnel from each department, eliminate the monsters that are not dead, extinguish the flames as soon as possible, count the casualties and report to me. "
"Yes!" The soldier saluted him and then hurried to other parts of the camp.
Around dawn, it had rained all day and stopped. The fires burning in the camp were basically extinguished, leaving only scattered ashes that had not been completely extinguished. Yang Shenjiang was sitting on the ground, with him standing next to him. His armor was covered with smoke and dust, and he looked very embarrassed. In front of him, the captains and commanders of the forward and rear guards all gathered to report the casualties of his men. Condition.
"The rearguard lost thirteen people, two were missing, five were slightly wounded, and four were seriously wounded."
"The forwards lost eleven men, two were missing, five were slightly wounded, and four were seriously wounded."
"The tent where the doctors lived was also attacked, and less than ten people survived."
"One carriage was damaged, about a quarter of the bread was burned, and about a fifth of the bacon was lost. The number of damaged tents is still being counted."
Listening to the reports from the corps commander and the chiefs, General Yang's face gradually became solemn. Although the sentry issued a timely warning and the rearguard made certain preparations, the number of attacking monsters was too large, which still caused the appearance of monsters. Many people have died, and it is difficult to treat the injured. The previous attack by the fragrant bird has caused many injuries, and now there are more injured. The number of doctors is not enough to take care of so many people. , and now more than half of the doctors have been lost. If they are not treated in time, in a complex and changeable environment like the Netherland, minor injuries will eventually evolve into serious injuries, and serious injuries will lead to death, let alone carrying so many wounded people. It will slow down the entire team's progress.
The loss of personnel is still within an acceptable range. After all, most of the people still maintain combat effectiveness, and they are not far from their destination. The most troublesome thing now is the loss of food. The tents were burned and the carriages were damaged. There is still a solution, but the problem of food loss is difficult to solve. It’s okay if the next mission goes well, but if the next mission is hindered and cannot be completed on time, they will inevitably face the problem of food shortage on the way back. This There was no fortress like Jingling City to provide them with supplies during this trip, and it was even more nonsense to rely on hunting. Yan Zheng could not even get enough to eat by hunting alone. If these nearly two hundred people relied on hunting to make a living, I am afraid that the entire Youjing Not even a blade of grass can grow.
"Don't mention the damaged food to the soldiers for the time being, otherwise it will shake the morale of the army. I will truthfully report the situation to the commander and let him make a decision." General Yang said, "If more than half of the corps commander's personnel have been lost, he will deal with it on his own. Other teams are merged to ensure a collective fighting capacity, and weapons and equipment are brought as much as possible. The next battle will definitely require it. Slightly injured personnel are treated as much as possible and strive to make them recover in a short time. For seriously injured personnel, the main purpose is to maintain life. There is nothing we can do about this. I hope everyone can understand that we are about to reach our destination. If everyone persists, we will be able to go back after completing the mission."
"I have a suggestion. From now on, we should supply food according to the rationing system. This way we can save enough food for us to go back to eat." said a chief.
Yang Shenjiang shook his head and said: "I have also thought of your suggestion, but before setting off, I was told that the magic weapons of the monks all carry some emergency food, but I don't know how to carry it." How much has been paid, so I want to ask the general for his opinion and ask him to make a decision. The food is still being distributed according to normal standards. The brothers have indeed suffered a lot during this trip, and we cannot let them feel disappointed anymore."
"Thank you, General, for your understanding!" The corps commander and the chiefs saluted General Yang, but he only felt tired and waved his hands to signal everyone to carry out the order first.
Seeing everyone disperse, Yang Shen leaned next to the sword and sighed. He had a vague feeling that this mission would not end so easily.
A flash of light flashed in the sky, and Shen Dutong flew to his side, followed closely by a group of monks. Yang Shenjiang stood up in a hurry, but Shen Dutong leaned over to hold him down and sat down next to him. .
The right half of Shen Dutong's clothes was stained red with thick blood, and a scratch on his cheek was still oozing blood. It looked like he had experienced a fierce battle. His hand was pointing at several swords that were still suspended in the air. The flying blade was called back to his side and incorporated into the sea of qi. The other monks also looked quite embarrassed. Most of them were covered in colors. There were also some familiar figures who did not appear among these people. They were originally there. At this critical moment, without the commander in charge, General Yang Shen felt a little resentful. But looking at everyone's appearance, not only did his resentment disappear, but he also had a wave of doubt in his heart. What had happened to the commander and the others to make this person A group of monks became so embarrassed.
Shen Dutong saw the doubts in General Yang's heart and said: "I just checked and you did a good job. The damage to the camp has been reduced to the minimum. This attack came out of the blue. We encountered it on the periphery. A monster beast that is close to the Qingxu realm, and this monster beast is obviously not attracted by the fighting here."
"Then why is this? I don't understand." After listening to Shen Dutong's words, Yang Shenjiang frowned unconsciously.
Shen Dutong cursed: "Damn, there must be a ghost in our team!"
