Chapter 1568 Alien stage, strange confidence!(1/2)
"Captain, you're welcome."
As Sumo spoke, he neatly put away the pistol and subconsciously touched the safety with his finger.
Not all aliens have human-like intelligence.
Take the 300 million aliens currently hoarding in the east. At least 200 million of them are similar to the bloodthirsty rats in front of us, with only simple hunting instincts.
It is precisely because of this that the foreign tribes have been reluctant to launch a general offensive in the stalemate situation.
Otherwise, how can humans solve the problem of 300 million aliens whose IQ is about the same as that of humans but whose fighting power is extremely powerful.
And let’s not talk about the distant future, let’s talk about humans in the ruins of the future.
Even with some ordinary guns and ammunition, the alien races suffered successive defeats in the New World, and even almost reached the edge of extinction.
Now that humans have established the Nova Corps, and have more powerful weapons and logistical forces, even if 300 million aliens come out in full force and cannot find a good opportunity, it is still not much different from delivering food.
"Come on, let's go up the mountain first!"
Zhao Lei quickly wiped off the remaining blood on his body, took out a spray bottle that could eliminate the smell, and sprayed it all over his body carefully. After taking cover measures, he waved his hand and everyone immediately moved towards the nearest mountain entry point.
The bit rushed away quickly.
There were no dangers along the way.
The fire-suppression team chose a good time to enter the mountain. It happened to be when day and night alternated and the aliens needed to change shifts.
This also resulted in the fact that most of the aliens who rushed out to stop them were bloodthirsty rats that burrowed underground, and it was difficult for them to pose much of a threat to humans armed with guns.
Everyone rushed up the mountain in a hurry and plunged into the mountain with lush trees.
As the surroundings were covered by lush foliage, the sense of security that had been missing for many days was finally restored.
"Huh, this journey has not been easy. I think we should take a good rest for a week first and see what's going on behind us then?"
After Zhao Lei took a long breath and finished speaking, he turned his head and scanned everyone's faces.
Surprisingly, his eyes turned around, skipping Neil, and then landed on Somo.
"Brother Qin, what do you say?"
"I don't care, captain, you can make arrangements."
Sumo nodded slightly and said.
Now that the alien race has not fully launched its attack, he is not in a hurry to rush to the position of the city beast immediately.
Staying here, in case the opponent has the ability to detect the location, can also hide the city beast as a back-up.
"Okay, everyone, hold on for a while."
After everyone rested for a while in the forest, they began to look for a suitable hiding place.
Thanks to the unique topography of the Baiduan Mountains, there are actually many caves for hiding in the cliffs. I quickly found a hidden cave. The entrance of the cave was covered by dense vines, making it difficult to find from the outside. The interior of the cave is spacious.
, which is more than enough to accommodate a dozen people.
"This is fine. Let's settle here first. We've been exhausted these past few days."
There was a hint of exhaustion in Zhao Lei's voice, and his face was full of weariness. After all, he, the captain, had to bear the greatest responsibility during this journey of running and fighting.
Everyone was relieved and took off their heavy equipment and found a place to sit down.
Merrick collapsed to the ground from exhaustion, and soon he began to snore loudly. The two female team members also leaned against the cave wall, slowly closed their eyes, and fell into a half-asleep state.
When Torres and Sanchez saw this, they no longer held on and sat down to rest.
Zhao Leigang also planned to set up some traps nearby, but upon seeing this, he had no choice but to sit down.
A vague intuition told him that the real test would come when he entered the Baiduan Mountains.
Sure enough, as dusk approached, there was a sudden rustling sound outside the cave.
Looking up along the entrance of the cave, Zhao Lei's scalp was about to explode. It turned out that a group of leopard aliens with no less than thirty people was chasing them.
Seeing that half of Zhao Lei's head was exposed, the leader of the Leopard Captain showed a cruel expression and let out a creepy growl.
"No, the enemy is coming!"
Zhao Lei roared loudly, and the cave suddenly became chaotic.
When a person who is still in deep sleep wakes up, he cannot control his body at first.
It's like the consciousness is still there, but the hands and feet are not in control.
This also caused everyone except Neil and Gao Ruoyun to stand up subconsciously. The next second they all fell to the ground, twitching all over.
Only Su Mo ducked out immediately, raised his hand and fired a few shots.
The crisp sound of gunfire instantly broke the balance, and a few bright snowflakes bloomed on the foreheads of the two leopards.
At the same time, other leopards also took advantage of this opportunity and rushed forward.
Fortunately, the firepower from behind came forward, and Neil charged with a short dog, forming a suppressive firepower.
In less than three minutes, the alien race quietly left behind more than a dozen corpses and lurked around them. The people who came from behind looked at the leopard corpses on the ground and felt a sense of joy in their hearts that they had survived the disaster.
Fortunately, we chose a reliable team to set out with. If it were any other team, we would have left them behind and ran away.
Neil went out to check around and refill the guns one by one.
But soon he discovered that the leopards shot by Somo were all shot in the forehead, killing them with one blow.
"Brother Qin, your accuracy is too good."
"It's okay, maybe my hands are steadier?"
Su Mo shook his pistol, not showing any humility this time.
If we go back a few years ago, when we encountered these alien races, I am afraid that even after firing all the bullets in the pistol, we might not be able to defeat a leopard.
This is different from the slow-moving kobolds, which are almost humanoid targets.
According to the visual inspection just now, this leopard alien race can run at least 100 meters and ten seconds, and this is still in the mountains and forests. It is probably faster on the flat ground.
After cleaning up the battlefield, there will definitely be no place to stay in this cave.
Everyone could only continue dragging their tired bodies deeper into the Baiduan Mountains. However, in the next three days, the alien attacks seemed to be crazy, and conflicts broke out almost every hour or two.
Especially the closer you get to the mountains, the stronger the alien races you encounter.
"These days are endless. If we continue like this, the bullet will never last for half a month!"
After fighting off a group of lizards again, Zhao Lei sat down on the ground, gasping and cursing.
However, no one paid attention to his curse. Everyone else, including Merrick, subconsciously looked at Somo, waiting for his command.
"Look at me? I'm not the captain?"
Su Mo suddenly felt a little dizzy.
As the number of alien races increases, frequent sneak attacks are not a threat, but they are annoying.
If he were alone, Sumo was confident that he would be able to evade the pursuit and search of the alien race.
But he also knew in his heart that if he left now, the fire-suppression team might not last even a day before they would be found and driven to a dead end by the swarming aliens.
Humans are not like vegetation, so how can they be ruthless?
The characters of the fire suppression team were not bad. After spending more than ten days together, they just let these people die. Sumo asked himself that he could not do such a thing.
"Well..."
Just when Somo was pondering and about to speak, the token at his waist suddenly vibrated slightly.
In just a few seconds, the amplitude of the vibrations became larger and larger, which meant that the distance between the two parties was quickly closing.
"Connie?"
Su Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.
This is the tool Connie gave him to communicate with before, but unfortunately the communication distance is limited, the maximum is one hundred kilometers.
I've been trying my luck everywhere these days, but nothing happens with this token.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, it was Connie who finally established contact.
"Everyone, let's have a rest. I'll go outside to do some reconnaissance first and see where we can rest tonight."
After Somo finished speaking, he walked out of the cave without waiting for anyone else to react.
There are many mercenaries staying around here. If these people see him and Connie together, they will definitely be suspected of rape.
"Why!"
Zhao Lei raised his hand and shouted, but the next words were stuck in his throat and he didn't know what to say.
The others also looked at each other, and they could see a bit of anxiety in each other's eyes.
"Why did you just watch Brother Qin and force him to leave?"
"Didn't you watch it too?"
"No way, it's obviously much better if we all stick together as a team than if one person fights alone, right?"
To be continued...
