Chapter 902: The Terror of the Black Tide
The soldiers of the second company had just entered the warning area on the right side of the track and had not had time to complete the defense line when a nauseating sweet smell quietly filled the air. The heavy rain also became sticky because of it.
"Enemy attack!!!"
"An unknown creature is approaching, damn it, my squad leader has been dragged away!!!"
Bang bang bang bang~~~
..
The roar of panic and anger tore through the rain curtain, and the QBZ-191 assault rifle was the first to spew out tongues of fire, and the dark red trajectory intertwined into a web in the rain curtain.
"An unknown creature is approaching!!"
At the same time, exclamations were heard from the direction of the third company, which was only separated by an armored train.
shhhhh--
Three flares shot up into the sky with tails of flame, and the phosphorous-white light instantly tore through the darkness.
Under the pale halos of light from the dome, the scene on both sides of the railway tracks was terrifying:
I saw thousands of octopus-shaped vines emerging from the mud and woods, surging like dense seaweed. The surface of each vine was covered with wriggling suction cups and pulsating bottle-sized holes, constantly contracting and expanding, as if they were breathing.
The mud surged wherever it passed, and even the rainstorm was dyed a strange green...
"Fire!! Fire!!! All companies, fire freely!!"
The veins on the neck of the second company commander Zhang Yu bulged from exerting too much force. He turned around and climbed to the top of the armored train behind him while shouting.
The obscuring effect of the rain curtain greatly limited his ability to observe, and he had to quickly climb to a high place to grasp the overall situation.
Puff puff puff puff~~
The dense bullets rotating at high speed exploded blood flowers among the vines. As the injured vines twisted wildly, a large amount of green mucus splashed out from the penetrated wounds and spread all around.
Zizizizi~~
Li Yong, the former internal guard sergeant who was closer, suddenly found green smoke coming out of his body. Even though he reacted extremely quickly and retreated to keep a distance, a large number of honeycomb-like holes were still burned on his raincoat!
Huchi~huchi~
This scene frightened him so much that his heart almost stopped, and even the sound of air exchange in the gas mask canister became several degrees faster.
However, just as he was congratulating himself for escaping death, on top of the armored train behind him, Company Commander Zhang Yu was shouting at the top of his lungs in the pouring rain:
"Two companies take turns to cover and retreat! Keep some distance from the unknown creatures!!!"
Just as he finished speaking, a vague giant outline gradually emerged from the woods on the left!
The thing looked like a piece of melted meat, its surface constantly bulging and collapsing, with countless eyes opening and closing between the folds, it was extremely disgusting.
Fortunately, the visibility at the scene was very low, and its visual lethality was also greatly limited.
"Where's the machine gunner?! Machine gunner! Why hasn't the damn firing point been set up yet?!"
Before Second Company Commander Zhang Yu had finished his words, two company-level fire support points on the left and right sides of the defense line suddenly started roaring!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang! ! !
Almost at the same time, seven or eight QJB-201 squad machine guns opened fire at the same time. The thick fire lines drew dazzling and hot light tracks in the rainy night, splashing towards the invading mutant vine tide.
In an instant, when the metal storm came into contact with the mutated vines, a deafening explosion sounded, like a dense array of firecrackers exploding wildly.
The hit vines were torn into pieces by the powerful firepower, and the green juice was like bursting chickenpox, forming a fishy green mist in the air.
Those vines that were lucky enough to be only scratched were struggling and twisting wildly. Thick mucus continued to flow out of the wounds, mixing with the rainwater and corroding the ground with a "sizzling" sound.
As the dense gunfire continued to pour down, Teng Man Chao Shun, who had been so aggressive just now, was instantly melted by the ice and snow and melted in the fiery hail of bullets.
At this time, the second company commander trotted to the 25mm machine gun operating cabin on top of the train, pointed at the disgusting meat mass looming in the woods and said:
"Hit it! Hit it now! I suspect it is the source of the vine!"
"Yes!"
Then, the machine gun operator quickly moved the muzzle of the machine gun over, and at the moment of locking the target through the gun scope, he suddenly stepped on the firing pedal.
Bang bang bang bang! ! ! !
The next second, 25mm high-explosive bombs emerged from the anti-aircraft gun barrel like fire dragons and splashed towards the disgusting giant in the forest.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Flames exploded, and the violent explosion instantly engulfed the stitched monster that looked like both an animal and a plant.
At this moment, Battalion Commander Gao Qi also climbed up from the direction of the third company's defense line. His raincoat hood was stuck tightly to his face and he didn't bother to separate them. His whole body was soaked, as if he had been fished out of the water. He looked extremely embarrassed.
When Battalion Commander Gao Qi saw Second Company Commander Zhang Yu, he immediately asked in a serious tone:
"Second Captain, what's the situation now? Has your company's defense line been stabilized?"
Before the words fell, without waiting for the second company commander Zhang Yu to reply, the battalion commander Gao Qi quickly ordered the machine gun operator beside him:
"Right now, provide fire support to the third company's defense line!"
"The situation over there is very bad, we can't hold on any longer, the 4th Company's reserve team is already preparing!"
"Focus on killing the large mutant monsters, and let the company handle the others on their own. Remember to conserve ammunition!"
"It's the battalion commander!"
It was also at this time that, following the direction of rotation of the machine gun barrel, Second Company Commander Zhang Yucai noticed that on the left side of the armored train, the Third Company's defense line was swaying like a candle in the wind and rain and could be extinguished at any time.
The light from the flares above gradually dimmed in the rain, while more terrifying existences surged out of the darkness, like an endless black tide, spreading out from the dense mountain forests.
Chief among them were mutant spiders the size of tires, with twisted limbs, each leg covered with suction cups and barbs, and eight compound eyes emitting sickly purple light.
"They are coming again! Suppress them with fire!" The third company commander roared, shattering the raindrops that hit him.
At the machine gun position, six QJB-6 squad machine guns were spitting flames crazily, trying to build a breakwater with a barrage of metal bullets.
However, on the side of the defense line, something strange happened. After a short tremor, a giant tubular worm emerged from the ground.
Its body suddenly stretched out like a telescopic hose, and it pierced down fiercely with its huge mouth full of serrated teeth!
Caught off guard, a soldier was immediately swallowed whole from head to toe. The next second, it was visibly tightened all over, directly squeezing the soldier inside.
It was also at this time that the soldiers around who had reacted quickly turned their guns around and shot at it wildly. However, the dense bullets shot at it like a drop in the ocean. Apart from splashing a series of disgusting blood mist, it had no effect at all and instead angered it.
The giant tubular worm struggled to pull its body out of the ground, and then began to roll wildly like a drum, sweeping and crushing seven or eight soldiers in just a few seconds.
However, what was even more horrifying was that a ball of flesh that looked like melted asphalt suddenly flew out from the forest. As it landed and exploded around the defense line, it actually exploded into a swarm of small, translucent worms that looked like leeches.
These worms are covered in transparent mucus, with turbid unknown liquid surging in their bodies. When their twisted mouthparts open and close, their sharp teeth are a strange blue-black color.
They were like dense raindrops, crackling and hitting the surrounding soldiers. Wherever they went, the soldiers' bodies instantly emitted a series of "sizzling" corrosion sounds.
At the moment the sharp mouthparts pierced the training uniforms, the corrosive liquid penetrated the fabric like strong acid, burning bloody holes in the skin. The worms twisted their sticky bodies and drilled frantically into the soldiers' bodies through the wounds.
The few soldiers closest to the explosion point were like being submerged by a black tide. Tens of thousands of worms poured into their ears, eyes, nostrils and mouths. The surface of their skin was densely covered with wriggling black spots, like a rotten wound crawling with maggots.
