Chapter 143 Dragon and Tiger Brothers Alliance
ä�\��After a fight, the surface of the mother beast's body has become riddled with holes. Ge Dalong fell in an ice and snow storm, freezing all the flesh and blood on its surface. Zhang Shi stepped on it and stamped lightly, and a large area His flesh and blood turned into broken ice, and fell to the ground piece by piece.
The mother beast howled repeatedly, with many wounds deep enough to show the bones, and shook its body greatly in an attempt to throw Zhang Shi off. As he wished, Zhang Shi used the Shadow Step to distance himself, then took out his compound bow and fired continuously, each arrow aimed at the female beast's eye socket. The severely injured female beast had no resistance at all. After more than a dozen arrows were fired in succession, the female beast fell heavily to the ground, stopped moving, and had no breath.
At the same time, the swarm of insects squirmed towards the depths of the ruins as if under command. There were no longer any insects visible at the entrance. Seeing this, Zhang Shi hurriedly called on everyone to follow them quickly.
They followed closely behind the swarm of insects and passed through the winding passages formed by connective tissue. Every step was full of unknowns and dangers. Pipi is still close to Zhang Shi, its senses are extremely sharp in the dark, and it is always alert to possible threats lurking around it.
As they went deeper, the light inside the ruins gradually became brighter. A faint red light was reflected on the rock walls here. Zhang Shi found that they had come to a spacious underground hall. There was a huge pool in the center of the hall, with crystal clear water. But if you look closely, you can find some strange creatures swimming in the water. They emit a faint fluorescence. They are somewhat similar to the previous worms, but they are more slender and move more quickly.
"It seems that this is a breeding tank for worms." Zhang Shi whispered, his eyes scanning around, looking for possible exits or more clues.
Suddenly, Pippi let out a low growl, and its eyes were fixed on the side of the pool. Zhang Shi followed its line of sight and saw a hidden cave entrance there. The surrounding entrance was covered with moss and vines. It would be difficult to discover its existence without careful observation.
"Everyone, be careful, there may be an ambush." Zhang Shi reminded, he slowly approached the entrance of the cave, the weapons in his hands ready to deal with possible dangers.
When they stepped into the cave entrance, a strong chill hit them, as if they had entered another world instantly. The cave is covered with ice crystals, and every step is accompanied by a crisp sound. They walked along the ice crystal-covered passage and soon came to a huge ice cave.
In the center of the ice cave, there is a huge ice platform, and lying quietly on the ice platform is a huge ice egg that emits a soft blue light. This ice egg is completely different from the blood-red cocoon seen in the insect nest before. It gives people a peaceful and mysterious feeling.
"This is..." Zhang Shi looked at the ice egg in front of him in surprise. He realized that this might be a brand new life form, or have some connection with the worm mother beast, or it might be a higher-level existence.
Just as they were observing carefully around the ice egg, the ice egg suddenly began to tremble, and the blue light on its surface became more dazzling. Immediately afterwards, there was a crisp cracking sound, the shell of the ice egg began to crack, and a young, faintly fluorescent insect slowly crawled out of the egg.
This little creature is very different from the worm, with a more refined body shape and brighter fluorescence. It looked at the world around it curiously, and then quickly ran deeper into the ruins.
"It's an artifact level, but I can't see its level."
Zhang Shi whispered, with both surprise and awe in his eyes.
They decided not to disturb the mysterious creature and quietly exited the ice cave. When they returned to the underground hall again, they found that the insect swarm had disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
…
At the same time, in the transfer station shelter, Zhao Feng was leading a hundred soldiers to build defense facilities in preparation for possible zombie attacks. Unexpectedly, he encountered another group of people heading towards the transfer station. As they came, it looked like there were five hundred people in total. The heavy rain blocked their sight. Although they couldn't see their faces and equipment clearly, they could tell that these people were alive. They should be people from a certain force, and the people who came were not good-natured. .
Zhao Feng quickly issued an order to the soldiers, asking them to stand on the wall and remain vigilant. He sent a message for help to Zhang Shi. Unfortunately, the three people in the shelter were exploring the underground ruins at the moment and did not notice the system's private chat.
Seeing that the opponent was getting closer and closer, and Zhang Shi did not respond, Zhao Feng could only feel relieved and prepared for a fight.
These 500-man coalition troops come from the Dragon Tiger Alliance and the Brotherhood. If you look carefully, Zhao Feng should still be able to recognize his old acquaintance - Chen Beipan.
In order to fight against the Eagle Regiment, the two families united and recruited troops in the divisional channel. Chen Beipan seized the opportunity and became a guest of the alliance with his abundant resources, not caring about backstabbing his former allies.
After forming an alliance, they recuperated their strength and did not immediately attack Bell's castle. Instead, they concentrated their efforts on retaking the branch's shelter at the transit station. However, they made a mistake and made the wrong opponent.
"Last night there was another wild beast attack in the wilderness world. All the survivors were exhausted and had been struggling all night. Today is a good time to attack."
Chen Beipan wore a raincoat and acted as a dog-headed military advisor, advising between the two leaders.
The leader of the Brotherhood, Xie Dong, was not cold towards Chen Beipan. He just walked forward with a cold face and an expressionless face, seemingly dissatisfied with this raid.
Brother Long, the leader of the Dragon and Tiger Alliance, came out to smooth things over with a smile on his face.
"Brother Chen, I defeated the enemy's aircraft first, so I don't miss anything. If I win this battle, I have to give you the first credit."
Although Zhao Feng acted recklessly, he also knew that the transfer station was the pivot point for everyone's outward expansion and must not make any mistakes. Therefore, although Zhao Feng was extremely anxious in his heart, he still maintained calmness and determination on his face, not wanting to shake the morale of the army.
First, he quickly adjusted the soldiers' defense and divided the 100 soldiers into three groups: one group was responsible for frontal defense and used existing fortifications and simple bunkers to resist; the second group was cavalry and left through the back door in advance. , hidden on both sides, ready to surprise the enemy from the side at critical moments and disrupt their offensive rhythm; the third group serves as a mobile unit, ready to support various locations or pursue the fleeing enemy.
Then, Zhao Feng ordered the soldiers to place some simple traps and set up trip wires, taking advantage of the terrain to increase the difficulty of the enemy's march and the casualty rate. At the same time, he also organized personnel to collect all available materials in the shelter, including Molotov cocktails, improvised explosives, etc., to prepare for a fatal blow to the enemy at the critical moment.
"It's a pity that we didn't bring the cannon, otherwise we wouldn't be afraid no matter how many people came."
The soldiers were sharpening their swords and cleaning their guns, and were ready. They looked at the people and horses approaching slowly from a distance, and pointed their guns at them. As long as Zhao Feng gave the order, they would pull the trigger without hesitation and stop them. Any creature that wants to attack the way station.
