Chapter 3088: A New Sword Hardened by the Fire of War
Facing the Tyranids again, Sai Lei no longer felt strange as before. Now he was very familiar with the characteristics and attack patterns of these enemies, and their spear array this time The mission was to assist in the defense of Stone City. Among the participants was another spear formation led by Prince Andrea. As for the main spear formation led by the Supreme King, it was deployed in the planet capital, including Sai Lei's father.
Two gun arrays, one in the south and one in the north, are responsible for serving as the heavy fire support point on the front line. Sairei has been fighting for 19 consecutive hours. Although his spirit has shown signs of decline, he still relies on combat medicine to maintain his strength. combat status.
After all, the war was urgent and they had little time to rest, and the fierce battle quickly turned these novice knights into experienced fighters.
The previous battle near Three Forks City earned them awards from the High King and the Space Marine Commander. The only regret was that a knight was killed in the gun formation. Sai Lei also knew that person, although he was not a person. A good friend but also a classmate, his mecha was continuously damaged, causing the cockpit to be directly penetrated by the main gun of the Indominus Beast.
This was also Sai Lei's first experience of death. When he saw the mutilated corpse on the blood-stained mechanical throne, his mood was extremely agitated and he did not recover for several days.
Until that moment, he understood that death is the same whether it is a mortal or a mecha on the battlefield, and no one is more noble.
Not only him, but all the young knights who participated in the mourning were equally depressed and depressed. The war taught them far more than just skills, and it was even reshaping their worldview in a sense.
But the battle was not over yet. Soon they were thrown into a new battlefield and accepted a new round of tests.
“Pay attention to the three o’clock target”
Standing behind the collapsed first protective wall, Sai Lei controlled the Heavenly Punishment Cannon to shoot at the dense Tyranid creatures, but he no longer enjoyed the joy of strafing like before, because it had no effect except wasting ammunition. The biological infantry's light weapons can solve the problem. He constantly targets larger creatures and knows very well which monster to attack first and which monster's death will have the greatest impact on the insect swarm.
In his highly concentrated state of mind, the dense swarm of Tyranids became a background that could be ignored, and only those units that stood out were noticed by him.
Since the battle so far, he has killed 3 evil woman beasts, 2 violent beasts, 1 holy prostitute insect, and 1 executioner.
Not too much, not too little.
According to the message from the teaching knight, Prince Andrea has killed a total of 11 large Tyranids since this battle, including a python.
Although Sai Lei really wants to catch up with the opponent's performance, the limitation of the machine is here. Andrea's knight is a Crusader type with very powerful long-range firepower. Although the Heavenly Punishment type Jiao Kui Knight is also a long-range model, there is only one The main weapon of the sect cannot be compared with the Crusader whose whole body is covered with long-range firepower.
Under this depression that he was destined not to be the first, Sai Lei aimed his artillery fire at another evil woman beast. The plasma punishment cannon fired at the ground produced a powerful impact, tearing out a series of feathers. A swarm of knife bugs and gunworms surrounding the female worm were smashed into pulp and smeared on the ground, while the evil woman beast protected its body with its forelimbs and slowly retreated into the fog - this was also the result of the game. Lei was a little annoyed because these bugs had learned to be smart. If they were shot at from a long distance, they would retreat into the cover of the poisonous mist, and then emerge again when the knights diverted the fire.
During this period, the sporozoites will throw a large number of robe mines at the knight's location. The positioning of this creature is somewhat similar to a mortar. Because of its smaller size and more concealed attack, it will not resemble the Tyranid artillery. That's easily taken care of by air power.
Sure enough, dozens of spore mines with tentacles flew out of the poisonous mist. They drew high arcs and landed around the knight with incredible accuracy - if Sai Lei had not moved in advance. .
With a weird popping sound, the spore mines exploded one after another the moment they landed, spilling acid and sharp bone fragments that were enough to corrode the alloy. Although the effect is terrifying, most of these bugs use the mechanism of twitching muscles to launch their living ammunition, which greatly limits their range and rate of fire, and can be easily avoided with a little movement.
Saile controlled the repaired silver unicorn to move and fire at the enemy while observing the battle of other comrades.
Besides the one who died in the battle, there is another person missing from the gun formation.
Tasia was lucky not to be injured in the last battle, and is still fighting now. Ashley is the more unlucky one, and she is fine. However, the Iron Lady was too badly damaged, even if Even after being repaired, it was difficult to fight, so she was the second missing person in the gun formation. However, I heard that she was not idle either, and piloted a squire mecha to assist Tasia.
After confirming that everyone was fine, Sai Lei changed his strategy, suspended the attack, and retreated behind a fortification that could cover his body, pretending that he no longer existed.
Sure enough, in less than half a minute, the evil woman beast that he had not hunted just now appeared again, and as it moved, the fetal sac in its abdomen was still squirming disgustingly, constantly producing little monsters covered in mucus.
Serei was not in a hurry, but sent a signal to the surrounding troops, asking them not to attack the beast for the time being.
He has to wait until the other party reaches a distance from which there is no escape.
The Evil Woman Beast continued to move forward surrounded by the little monsters, crossing the ditch filled with corpses and crossing the broken obstacles. When it was about to reach the barbed wire fence where there was no longer much barbed wire, Sai Ray fired.
“Don’t try to escape!”
The initial shot of the Heavenly Punishment Cannon accurately hit the Evil Woman Beast near its head. The beast howled in pain and raised its forelimbs to wave in an attempt to block it.
However, this exposed its abdomen. Sairei quickly locked the position and adjusted the muzzle. With the scream of plasma, the ugly fetal sac was smashed, and the evil woman beast immediately lost its balance and rolled to the side. , Sai Lei can finally destroy it with firepower at this time.
“The eighth one!”
A minute later, the huge beast turned into a pile of fleshy mounds leaking pus and smoking. Sai Lei reported his victory with satisfaction. , but at this time the voice of teaching the knight sounded.
"Knights! The western defense line needs urgent support! Everyone, follow me!"
Sairei immediately transferred without saying a word. As the knights moved along the wide temporary fast track, Space Marines and Adeptus Mechanicus aircraft kept passing overhead. The Tyranids had terrifying air power, but they were not a problem now.
During this process, Sai Lei also noticed that there seemed to be constant sirens inside the city.
