Chapter 456 Offensive Evolution

A suppressive bombardment interwoven by long-range weapons.

Discrete projectiles of various colors fell on this not-so-large battlefield area, and the explosions and smoke formed a temporary blind spot, spreading with the smoke.

The scarlet smoke quickly moved towards the edge of the battle line and spread with the bombardment.

The poisonous fog that spread with the smoke completely engulfed the monster infantry at the front, forcing some of the spearmen and grenadiers at the forefront to retreat.

Grenadiers, as cheap as spearmen.

At the forefront of the front, as an absolutely disposable consumable unit.

The cost is not even much higher than that of spearmen. The only valuable thing on their body is two disposable grenades/explosive packs. Their only function is to use the disposable weapons in their hands to curb the offensive of the enemy's elite infantry and medium-sized units.

Unlike archers, they do not need special training, nor do they need to carry a musket like muskets.

They only need to use their human instincts, the throwing instinct engraved in their genes.

But they are also quite lethal. Think about it, when your front-line troops are counterbalanced, throw a few disposable bombs from the front line.

The exchange between the garbage troops and the elite troops was completed so easily. In the fight, although these spearmen could not defeat the elite troops of a higher level, it did not mean that they would not use some other means to achieve their goals.

Because they hold such dangerous equipment, grenadiers must also be selected from those with stronger willpower.

A grenadier turned and looked into the smoke screen while running back. Through the light stream of the falling sun, those who were very close could see the deformed body standing up again in the smoke screen.

They themselves do not rely on the vision understood by humans to fight, and this is even more so after the flesh and blood core is implanted to become a flesh and blood turbine.

A boulder hit its metal head directly, and it fell to the ground with its body.

The headless flesh and blood turbine stood up again from the ground, stretched out its hand and fell on its empty body, then swung its steam spear to smash a troll who wanted to sneak attack from behind into the mud.

Even with this grenadier's strong will to survive, he was still shocked for a moment by the deformed bodies revealed in the smoke.

It seemed... taller?

The dense smoke-raising mixed long-range weapons suppression did not shake its body at all.

Ignite the flame, the extremely panicked grenadier ignited the medicine bag in his hand and threw it at the blood turbine wielding a spear in the smoke.

"Well, the combat efficiency is higher than I thought."

The monitoring troops were suspended in the air, monitoring the enemy's reactions on the scene with fixed telescopes and recording them.

They did not carry too many weapons. The ship-borne weapons were only enough for their self-defense. Some of the weapon pods were replaced with special telescope high-altitude observation pods.

The territory of the fifth era can already manufacture lenses, although it is more cost-effective to leave the high-precision lens grinding to the Holy City.

Long-distance observation is no longer their weakness.

The battlefield far away from the homeland is the best place for them to test weapons.

They did have a backup plan to fight against the Flesh Turbine, but Ji Lin's goal was to contain the opponent's advance and cause some trouble to the opponent... His goal was not to control the island.

The Flesh Turbine in the smoke screen was still eating and evolving.

The flesh and blood of the monster infantry was the best nutrient, and the materials on their metal weapons could just be used to shape armor.

"Let the infantry troops on the front line retreat a little..."

Something was not right...

Zhang Ao looked at the arcane artillery in his own line, and then at the gunpowder artillery and heavy catapults that were constantly firing on the other side, and Xu Yan who was commanding the rock elements to shoot one after another.

Under this kind of firepower, I'm afraid the heavy armor of modern tanks will not be able to withstand it.

The pure kinetic strikes were superimposed on each other, and the opponent did not avoid them with the advantage of speed.

"Concentrate your firepower! Concentrate your firepower to kill a few first, these things are not right!"

The front-line lords were quickly reporting the casualties of their troops. Although their vision was not very clear, the casualty figures that popped up on their panels would not be false.

Each number means that a soldier has been recovered by the system.

"Audrey, how is the construct unit prepared!"

Zhang Ao called his hero unit. If he let them go, his plan to attack would be ruined...

Although cannon fodder is cannon fodder, it is absolutely impossible to do without cannon fodder.

Rebirth and reset requires a month, a vacuum period of one month.

"Soon, the operator is still doing the final coordination... Is the situation on the front line so urgent?"

A woman's voice came to respond to him.

Zhang Ao took a deep breath. As long as Audrey brought her controllable rune construct unit, the problem would be solved... The construct he got through the A-level mission was also a very special thing.

His eyes fell on the turbid scarlet and brown-gray fog in the distance.

If there is one thing that is not afraid of the low-quality consumption of the monster sea, then it is to force them to put their elite forces on the gambling table.

They have seen this reality in the front-line troops.

Cannon fodder cannot stop the advancement of these special constructs.

There are a lot of damage, cracks, and ruptures visible to the naked eye on the bodies of those who walked out of the smoke again.

But none of the constructs completely lost their combat capability.

They did not simply break off the other's body and merge it into their own, but ate steel and flesh to make themselves... stronger in their current form.

Higher, bigger, stronger.

Grow again along the route of flesh and steel, the combat efficiency of those biological limbs is far less than that of the flesh-mechanical joints they evolved.

So they dismantled and devoured.

There were no weapons that satisfied them that could be eroded, so they adjusted their bodies to grow new limbs.

The new long arms stretched along the shoulders, and the flesh and steel grew into a fused stacked armor in the slender body, which was more bloated and heavy than the previous slender body.

Three hands with steel.

Four walking joints downward.

The boulder fell on the flesh turbine that had entered the second stage of evolution, breaking its limbs, and the sudden explosion destroyed one of its jointed feet.

Then came the thermal plasma spheres that arrived. These high-temperature restraint spheres generated at the front of the magic cannon would lose restraint at the moment of hitting, and apply high heat to objects within the attack radius.

Their attack was quite effective under the strategy of concentrated firepower. A concentrated attack wave destroyed five second-stage flesh turbines with a mixed attack and disabled a small number of flesh turbines.

When heat and kinetic energy are concentrated at one point, they can destroy a flesh turbine. The high heat will reduce its mobility, and then the saturated boulder will destroy the rune core in its body.

Almost all flesh turbines lost their combat capabilities after being half-dissolved and smashed. The growing flesh slowly slid off the steel and dripped on the lawn, emitting a pungent smell of motor oil.

If they learned anything from the battle...

Heavy rocks or forged rough weapons were thrown forward from their hands, crossing a distance of one hundred meters and pulling a long scarlet road in the infantry formation.

They also learned to throw things in a predetermined direction, in the direction of their enemies.

The dead monster infantry left them with a considerable amount of hard throwable objects... and they were deadly enough.

From the infantry line, distance, 20 meters.

Infantry casualties in the first round of contact: 714.

(From the author's nonsense, 374, 340, 434, I'll post it if someone wants it)
