Chapter 1624
Chapter 1633 Road to Escape
“What are these?”
One carved out by Chiba Makoto standing on an almost vertical rock wall On the platform extending out of the cave, I looked down at the 'giant cockroach' crawling quickly among the ruins. It was too huge, comparable in size to a wild boar, but its speed was much faster than that, and its destructive power was naturally also A rising tide lifts all boats.
Originally, he planned to take a look around. Although it was not the first time he came to Luluye, he had never taken a good look at this once glorious city. Now it is full of ruins. It is a place of memories, so just walk around and take a good look. After all, once you leave here, you may never see it again.
However, the arrival of the TPC investigation team forced Chiba Makoto to give up his plan of walking around and instead hide to observe the team. In the original plot, this team was supposed to break into the side hall and destroy the seal, causing the three dark giants to resurrect and destroy the group. investigation team to see who they are, and then make plans.
After all, although they are both TPCs, this TPC is completely unfamiliar to him. Naturally, he cannot contact them rashly. If possible, he should not contact them at all, so as not to cause trouble and cause unnecessary impact.
But Qianye Cheng had just jumped to the highest point, and just as he was about to condescend, he heard a shrill scream, which was particularly loud in this quiet cave, making Qianye Cheng immediately turn around and look at Looking anxiously towards the direction where the sound came from, he saw a man wearing A soldier in TPC uniform was knocked down by a gray-black reptile. With one mouthful of its huge mouth, most of his body was torn apart. With another mouthful, the man lost his voice and only blood gushes out like a fountain. Sprinkled into the dry soil, it was absorbed eagerly.
And in the blink of an eye, more black bugs emerged from the cracks in the ruins. At a cursory glance, there were hundreds of them, and they swarmed towards the soldiers who were scattered to search. .
Although it looks like a 'cockroach', its body is nearly three meters long. Although it is huge, it crawls very fast among the ruins of masonry and rubble, and it feels like walking on flat ground. , as nimble as a cheetah, swooping up and knocking down a strong soldier in an instant. Facing that gluttonous mouth, there was no possibility of escaping.
In just a few seconds, seven or eight soldiers lost their lives. Even though they were fully armed, they were unable to fight back against the hunter in the darkness.
The screams one after another echoed in the huge cave. It can be said that the sound is heard in the empty valley and the sorrow lasts for a long time. Coupled with the rustling movements coming from the surrounding darkness, it is frightening. Trembling with fear, the hairs all over his body stood up. After hearing the order to 'retreat', he forgot his training and only had the instinct to escape, running backwards.
In the messy formation, flaws suddenly appeared, causing the hidden hunters to immediately move, killing with one blow. Soldiers were knocked down one after another, making the wailing sound even more tragic.
Immediately afterwards, a flare shot into the sky, illuminating the surrounding area. It also allowed the soldiers surrounded by darkness to take a breath and launch a counterattack against the 'giant cockroaches' that were surrounding them. .
Dense beams of light intertwined into a net, shrouding each cockroach inside, but the attack results were quite unsatisfactory. The laser gun was unable to break through the defense and could only temporarily repel it a little distance, but When the sparks dissipated, he ran forward quickly again, with no trace on the dark beetle-like double shell.
"What on earth are these?" Chiba Cheng is very sure that he has never seen such giant insects, whether in his 'previous life', this life, or in his lost memory?
But if they are ultra-ancient creatures, doesn't it mean that they have lived in this closed city for 30 million years, so what do they eat?
While Chiba Cheng was thinking hard, trying to find fragments about this dark creature from the fragmented super-ancient memories, one round after another flares flew into the sky, emitting a dazzling light. The bright light shrouded almost half of the city in the light, and it was then that I was horrified to discover that dense and overwhelming black insects were like a black wave, rushing towards here from a distance.
The number of tens of thousands makes one’s scalp numb and eyes straight. There is no thought of resisting at all. There is only one word left: escape!
"Run away, run away quickly." Hui Jian shouted hysterically, but no one criticized or doubted him anymore. They all ran in panic towards the cave from where they came from, with guns, ammunition, instruments and equipment, All obstacles are thrown away, just to run faster, faster.
But how could two legs outrun twelve legs? The rugged ruins made it impossible for the soldiers to move their legs. Before they could even take two steps, they were overtaken by the 'giant cockroach' from behind. The thick and sturdy The jointed limbs were like springs, and the huge body flew up and flew towards the soldier who was lagging behind.
"Uh-huh!"
The soldier who collapsed on the ground let out a cry of despair, tears and noses gushing out, regret and unwillingness, all turning into foam.
But at this moment, a beam of golden light flew from one side and instantly hit the 'giant cockroach' flying in the air. It was knocked away and the soldiers who fell on the ground were knocked out. He was so stunned that he didn't even bother to wipe his tears. He turned around subconsciously and saw that the 'giant cockroach' that was so vicious just now was actually nailed to the wall by a golden spear.
The indestructible carapace was pierced through, and a viscous liquid like a stone was seeping out from the gap in the wound, but it did not stain the spear that exuded bright golden light, or even a little bit of it. The black-purple blood was annihilated by the golden light before it even touched the gun body.
The soldier was stunned when a gentle voice came from his ear: "Get out of here quickly."
Before he could turn his head, a tall figure rushed out from the side and strode towards the front. The sea of black insects came in. He raised his right hand, grabbed the end of the golden spear, and with the strength of running, pulled out the spear and the 'giant cockroach' instrument nailed to the wall from the wall.
The 'giant cockroach' that looked very heavy was actually ignored by this man. He easily raised the spear and swung it forward. The 'giant cockroach' was thrown out and streaked in the air. A parabola landed on the ground very far away, rolling and jumping, and then stopped moving.
At this time, the sea of worms also rushed to Qianye Cheng. He saw Qianye Cheng exerting force with both arms and driving the spear in his hand to sweep across thousands of troops. The top of the spear was like a long sword. The golden spear head was extremely sharp. Whenever the huge bugs were swept away, their muscles and bones would be broken immediately. Either arms or legs would be missing, or huge gaps would be made.
With just one sweep, seven or eight bugs were destroyed, which was quite as easy as chopping melons and vegetables. However, compared to the total number of bugs, these few bugs were simply a drop in the bucket, so Chiba Cheng There was no intention of fighting them to the end. After sweeping through thousands of troops and destroying the vanguard bugs, they quickly retreated.
The severely injured bug could no longer maintain a steady running and immediately fell to the ground. However, due to inertia, it continued to move forward, but its speed was greatly reduced, but the bugs behind it were still rushing forward. You Pushing and squeezing me, we were crushed together, causing the insects that were originally moving forward neatly to fall into chaos.
Although the chaos did not last long, it was enough for Chiba Makoto to retreat, jump up, and jump onto a stone pillar. He saw the TPC investigation team that was rapidly retreating, and was busy trying to find a solution. Put explosives on the easily exploded caves and prepare to blow them down to prevent the insects from attacking.
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!"
Saeki shouted loudly, wishing to give his legs to the lagging soldiers so that they could run faster, while Megumi was He held a laser gun on the side and kept firing. Each laser beam hit the bugs that wanted to pounce on the soldiers, repelling them briefly and giving the soldiers some time to escape. One shot, two shots, three shots.
Saeki's eyes changed when he glanced at Megumi Nakama. It's nothing to miss a shot. A laser gun with no recoil can be done as long as you practice hard, but if you can In such a tense and panic situation, it is not possible for ordinary people to still buy a soldier some time to escape with every shot.
This requires not only strong psychological quality, but also accurate judgment and an overall view.
Mingxin asked himself, Saeki couldn't do this, but this female commissioner whom he thought was parachuted down to pick peaches did it. Because of her, at least seven or eight soldiers were able to escape. .
After the last soldier within sight rushed into the cave, before he could run away, Saeki quickly pressed the detonation button and detonated the high-energy bombs piled at the entrance of the cave.
Boom!
In the raging fire, the cave shook violently, and a powerful shock wave hit, blowing away the people behind and falling heavily to the ground.
Amidst the pain in my body, my ears were buzzing from the huge echo and I was almost deaf. I wanted to open my mouth wide to breathe, but what I could inhale was the choking smoke, which made me cough. , became even more uncomfortable.
But the pain and discomfort make people happy, because this is the feeling of being alive.
Yes, they survived without being overtaken by those terrible bugs and then torn into pieces and became food in the mouths of the bugs.
"It's not time yet, we have to get back to the ground quickly." Hui Jian endured the pain in her body, stood up from the ground with difficulty, shouted to the soldiers who were lying on the ground around her, and turned her head at the same time Looking at the dusty place, the entrance to the cave had been blown down, but could this pile of rubble block the sea of insects? How long can it be blocked?
"Get up quickly, hurry up."
Saeki also reacted and shouted impatiently, asking the running and panting soldiers to get up quickly. When they returned to the ground, they were sure that everything was complete and they would not rest again. It's better to be late and tired than to lose your life in the ground.
The soldiers also stood up quickly. No one complained, but they were scrambling a little. When they thought of the overwhelming sea of insects, everyone couldn't help but speed up their pace, wishing they could put on their wings so that they could return to the ground immediately. The dark cave was really insecure.
Everyone quickened their pace. It was obviously a climb, but they walked faster than the downhill they came from. Even though everyone was panting like an ox, and even though their clothes were soaked with sweat, no one shouted. No one complained that they were tired, and no one even mentioned taking a rest. Everyone tried to take two steps as if they were three steps, so that they could run faster.
If they were not all well-trained soldiers, the elites selected from the elite would have lost their formation and rushed out in a hurry. Even so, under the huge fear, Their formation was not as neat as before and became a bit messy.
But Saeki, who had always been strict in running the army, had no time to care about this at this time. He only thought about one thing, and that was to take all these people out. No more lives would be lost.
Everyone trusted him and followed him down, but could not go up. Just thinking about this made Saeki feel uncontrollably sad, but he was not out of danger yet, and he could not show any weakness, because He is the backbone of this team. If he collapses, then everyone may not be able to get out.
While walking, Hui Jian suddenly said: "Captain Saeki, are there any bombs?"
"Uh" Saeki was startled. To be honest, he really didn't know. When I was running, I was just running away and didn't really pay attention to whether there were any soldiers carrying bombs.
"It's best to set them up along the road, just in case it's just a pile of rubble after all." Hui Jian expressed her worries. Although the high-energy bombs are very powerful, the insects chasing after them are really... There are too many. Even if some of them are killed, there are still many more behind.
And judging from the speed at which the bugs were tearing the soldiers apart, the mouthparts were obviously quite sharp, and which bug living underground couldn't dig holes, so the pile of gravel at the entrance of the hole was really hard to reassure. I think it can stop those bugs.
From what we have seen before, those bugs crawl very fast, so if you want to stop them, you may need to set up a few more obstacles.
Of course, in addition to thinking about the escape of this team, Hui Jian had a vague idea in her heart, that is, she should not explore the ultra-ancient city that made her feel extremely uneasy.
So, she wanted to blow up this passage leading to the super ancient city, not to mention completely blowing it up, but also to the extent that it would be inaccessible in a short period of time.
This will give her time to convince the director and others to stop investigating Luluye, at least not to go to the super ancient city underground again.
There——
It’s really dangerous!
Very, very dangerous.
It’s not just those bugs, but more dangerous existences that are still sleeping. If we continue to investigate and wake them up, humanity may usher in a catastrophe.
Therefore, Hui Jiama proposed this method, which Saeki immediately agreed with. He immediately asked who still had high-energy bombs. After receiving a positive reply, he immediately asked people to start setting them up, placing timers along the way to explode them. Section after section of caves prevented the bug from moving forward at full speed.
