Chapter 237 Difficult Advance
At this time, it was not only these first-level mercenary regiments that were shocked, but also Chen Tianlei, the leader of the second-level mercenary regiment, whose eyes were full of disbelief.
Compared to those first-level mercenary groups, as the leader of the second-level mercenary group, he knows more about the Sky-Splitting Mercenary Group.
According to the intelligence collected previously, although the Split Sky Mercenary Group is powerful, this strength should be based on Lin Xinghai.
But just now, Lin Xinghai didn't take any action at all. He easily killed such a large group of zombies with just the members of the Sky Splitting Mercenary Group.
This kind of strength is even stronger than those third-level mercenary groups he has learned about. At least in terms of the members' marksmanship, other third-level mercenary groups cannot compare with the Splitting Sky Mercenary Group.
Why are these members so good at marksmanship? It's not hard to guess the answer with just a little thought.
"Is this the power of the 'Gun God'? He can actually teach the members of the mercenary group the marksmanship to such an extent." Gou Sen murmured, with a hint of confusion in his eyes. An envious look.
Chen Tianlei also had a complicated expression.
When the mercenary group recovered from the shock, the Sky Splitting Mercenary Group had almost collected Yuan Jing.
At this time, the mercenary groups discovered that the Split Sky Mercenary Group was not only efficient at killing zombies, but even the speed at which they collected Yuan Crystals was not comparable to theirs.
Basically, with one cut of the knife, and then with a slight pick with the tip of the knife, the Yuan Jing at the back of the zombie's head was picked out. That skillful technique can only be practiced after collecting many Yuan Jing.
Of course, the collection speed is so fast. In addition to being skilled, it is also because the Sky Splitting Mercenary Group actually sent half of the mercenary group to collect the work. On average, these 50 people only need to collect 6 Just a Yuan Jing.
"Okay, keep moving forward." While other mercenary captains were still envious, Lin Xinghai's order was conveyed.
The team continued to move forward, but at this time, the first-level mercenary group, after seeing the power of the Sky Splitting Mercenary Group with their own eyes, no longer had the worries and worries at the beginning.
Instead, there was excitement. Almost all the mercenaries were gearing up, looking like they wanted to do something big.
Lin Xinghai used his senses to see all the changes in these mercenary groups, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth. This was exactly what he wanted.
As the team advanced, a second wave of corpses rushed out of Guanghan City, but the number of corpses rushed out later was far less than that of the first wave. There are only more than 100 of them.
This time Lin Xinghai did not let the Splitting Sky mercenary group stop all the zombies. He only killed the ones at the front. As for those who rushed to the side of the team, he let them pass and let the other mercenaries pass. The Corps also practiced their skills.
Thud, tug, tug!
When other mercenary groups saw zombies rushing towards them, they all rushed to shoot and kill them.
Since there are not many zombies in each mercenary group on average, these zombies were killed quickly.
Of course, the farther forward the mercenary group is, the more zombies it can kill, but the ones further back like the Blood Eagle Mercenary Group can't even kill a single zombie. .
This immediately made the faces of Chen Tianlei and Gou Sen look a little ugly.
Before they came to the rear of the team, they only considered the safety situation, but they never expected that the Sky Splitting Mercenary Group was so powerful. In addition, the other mercenary groups were high in fighting spirit and rushed to kill the zombies. , leading to the embarrassing scene where they had no zombies to kill.
"Captain, what should I do?" Gou Sen asked anxiously.
Chen Tianlei narrowed his eyes slightly, but soon seemed to think of something, and immediately said: "Don't worry, we haven't entered the city yet. When we do, zombies will come from all directions. Don't worry then. There are no zombies to kill.”
After hearing this, most of the anxious look on Gou Sen’s face disappeared. Indeed, this is Guanghan City. They only worry about being too dangerous. They don't need to worry about there being no zombies for them to kill.
As the team entered the city, things developed just as they expected, and the number of zombies began to increase.
What's more important is that the zombies attacking in the city will not only appear from the front. There may be zombies attacking from the left, right, and even from the back, but the number is not as large as from the front.
And as the team advanced, the houses on both sides became denser and denser, and more and more corpses rushed out from inside.
When the team was 500 meters deep into the city, some first-level mercenary groups were no longer able to suppress the advance of the corpses with the Ripper rifles alone, and instead used hand cannons.
Facts have proved that Lin Xinghai's previous suggestions were quite effective. After these first-level mercenary groups switched to hand cannon attacks, the pressure suddenly dropped.
Of course, since hand cannon bullets are more expensive, your income will definitely decrease, but overall you can still make a lot of money.
However, these first-level mercenary groups are not able to sit back and relax just by using the hand cannon as a killer weapon.
Although it is difficult for ordinary zombies and intermediate zombies to dodge in the face of a ranged killing weapon such as a hand cannon, it is still not a big threat to high-level zombies.
With their speed, even if they cannot run out of the explosion range in time, they can still resist when they reach the edge of the explosion with their super strong physique.
So these mercenary groups will eventually have to use the armor-piercing bullets of the Ripper rifles to deal with these high-level zombies.
At the beginning, due to each wave of zombies, they had to deal with at most one or two high-level zombies, and these first-level mercenary groups could still withstand it.
But as we go deeper, especially after going 1,000 meters deep, the zombies appear more and more densely, and the proportion of high-level zombies also continues to increase. These mercenary groups already need to dispatch mechas to cope with it.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xinghai frowned slightly. The overall strength of these mercenary groups was much worse than he imagined.
We have only gone 1,000 meters deep now, and have not even encountered mutant zombies. The various mercenary groups are already struggling so hard. If this situation continues, the rest of the journey will be impossible.
But he still didn't say much, but wanted to see where the limits of these mercenary groups were.
When they reached 1,300 meters deep, the team's first wounded person appeared. Two high-level zombies broke through the fire defense line at the same time. The opponent's mecha only had time to intercept one, and one was collecting Yuan Jing. Yong Bing was instantly seriously injured.
If the mercenary hadn't blocked it with his weapon in time, his life would have been lost.
“Stop!” When he saw this scene, Lin Xinghai decisively shouted to stop the team.
"Captain Lin, what's wrong?"
"What happened? Why did you stop?"
Suddenly, in the communication channel, there was There were many inquiries from the mercenary captains, and it was obvious that there were still many mercenary captains who didn't know what was going on.
"There are wounded in the Steel Mercenary Group. If we continue to fight like this, there will probably be wounded in your mercenary group soon. So it's time for the team to make readjustments." Lin Xinghai said in a calm tone.
——
In the previous chapter, I discovered that there was a mistake. The Sky Splitting Mercenary Group was only a second-level mercenary group, so the total number of people should be 100.
