Chapter 4: Bloody Battle with the Steel Thorn Wolf King
The rotation time of the planet where they are on this training mission is about 18 hours.
After only three hours of sleep, the members of Team 2027 began their second day of hunting alien creatures.
After experiencing yesterday's landing encounter, the members of the 2027 team gradually adapted to the situation on the battlefield.
Be able to skillfully apply the combat knowledge learned in school for three years.
Several scouts at the front of the team discovered a group of alien creatures hundreds of meters ahead in advance.
Everyone immediately slowed down and quietly sneaked towards the group of alien creatures.
After getting closer, I found that it was a pack of nearly sixty steel-thorned wolves.
Half of the number of steel-thorn wolves gathered around the entrance of the cave, while the other half of the number of steel-thorn wolves were patrolling nearby.
Fortunately, the team discovered them in advance.
Otherwise, if they make contact in a hurry, their entire team may be destroyed.
Someone asked in a low voice:
"What should we do? We seem to have walked into the den of the Steel Thorn Wolf."
At this time, Li Kang was already the team leader by default and said:
“Although there are a lot of steel-thorn wolves, they are first-class alien creatures after all.
It's not impossible to win even if it's unexpected.
When I counted to three, all the superpowers with long-range attack methods attacked the wolf den together.
The more Steel Thorn Wolves that can be annihilated at the first opportunity, the better. "
Everyone nodded and formed a long snake formation around the cover.
Just as everyone was making preparations, a slightly fat boy noticed that Liu Cheng, who was holding a kinetic rifle, had also approached.
"Hey, Liu Cheng, you, a disabled person, are here to cause trouble.
A shot of a kinetic energy rifle may not be able to kill a steel-thorned wolf, so hide behind it..."
The little fat man stopped mid-sentence.
Because he saw Liu Cheng silently take out a miniature nuclear warhead from his backpack and fill it into the excitation barrel under the kinetic energy rifle.
This is the only trump card Liu Cheng has prepared for himself to participate in this training mission.
This kind of miniature nuclear warhead is expensive to make, and its power is only equivalent to a full blow from a Level 2 superpower, and its launch speed is not as fast as that of a superpower.
Moreover, it is not light enough to carry on the body, which affects the speed, and it cannot be used as a means of close combat.
Therefore, superpowers generally do not choose equipment when fighting.
The incapacitated troops will give priority to large-caliber artillery shells that are cheaper to build and easier to transport.
Therefore, there is little demand for miniature nuclear warhead equipment.
The little fat man originally looked down upon Liu Cheng, who was a disabled person.
But at this moment, the miniature nuclear warhead on the gun's muzzle was obviously much more powerful than his own fireball ability, and his face immediately turned red:
"Okay, pretend I didn't say it, I'll make room for you."
"one two three!"
Li Kang counted down and took the lead in shooting a long-prepared wind blade.
The others followed closely, and in an instant, more than thirty supernatural attacks were directed at the entrance of the Steel Thorn Wolf's den.
The entrance of the Steel Thorn Wolf's cave was instantly destroyed by more than thirty supernatural attacks, and a dozen Steel Thorn Wolves gathered at the entrance of the cave were killed together.
This time, the 2027 team took action and eliminated more steel-thorn wolves than they encountered when they landed in battle.
The miniature nuclear warhead launched by Liu Cheng arrived half a second slower than the supernatural attack.
Everyone saw that the volley of supernatural attacks first destroyed the entrance of the Steel Thorn Wolf's cave, and half a second later, an explosion comparable to the power of more than thirty supernatural attacks came out of the cave.
The explosion's flames shot into the sky, blowing away more than a dozen steel-thorned wolves that were originally buried under the collapsed cave entrance.
For a moment, the bodies of the Steel Thorn Wolf were scattered everywhere.
The members of Team 2027 who were preparing to charge were stunned when they saw the second explosion. They thought that the first attack detonated something in the Steel Thorn Wolf's den.
After hearing someone explain that it was a miniature nuclear warhead launched by Liu Cheng, everyone in the charge glanced at Liu Cheng with complicated eyes.
"Grade 3, Class 27, follow me and kill!"
The cohesiveness brought to everyone by Class 27, Senior Grade 3, is significantly higher than that of the 2027 Squad.
Li Kang shouted and set an example by being the first to charge towards the steel-thorned wolves.
The others followed closely behind and all attacked the wolves.
Liu Cheng looked at the body of the Steel Thorn Wolf that he had blown to pieces. He couldn't help but twitch his right eyelid, and felt a heartache in his heart.
This time, there are more than a dozen star core fragments missing!
But now is not the time to worry about money.
He doesn't have the strong frontal combat ability like other superpowers.
Immediately, a kinetic rifle was set up behind the bunker to shoot at the steel-thorn wolves, covering the charge.
Under the cover of Liu Cheng's precise shooting, although the damage caused by the kinetic rifle to the steel-thorn wolves was limited, it still greatly interfered with the running speed of the steel-thorn wolves.
Li Kang and others who rushed to the front to confront the Steel Thorn Wolf suddenly felt that the pressure was greatly reduced.
Only then did they understand why the soldier commander Song Ziming praised Liu Cheng's firearms shooting performance.
Having this kind of precise covering firepower can indeed greatly increase the survival rate of frontline combatants.
Just after Team 2027 charged, there was a figure two kilometers away watching the battle of Team 2027.
Surprisingly, it was Song Ziming, the soldier captain responsible for managing the assessment task of the 2027 team this time.
Song Ziming shook his head and said to himself:
"These steel-thorned wolves are obviously protecting the lair. There may be high-level steel-thorned wolf kings in the lair. These recruits are still a little green in terms of experience.
However, the man named Li Kang and Tian Tiantian performed well, especially the former had some leadership qualities.
What surprised me the most was Liu Cheng. I didn't expect that he was carrying such a heavy weapon as a micro-nuclear warhead.
He had dissected the brains of more than a dozen steel thorn wolves and carried them on his body. Didn't he know that carrying so much useless weight would reduce the survival rate on the battlefield? "
Thinking of this, Song Ziming felt a little funny.
He felt that compared to the front-line combat troops, the profession of garbage man might be more suitable for Liu Cheng.
"Forget it, it's useless to think so much. Anyway, the result is good. "
After the Steel Thorn Wolf Pack realized that there was a sneak attack by humans, the Steel Thorn Wolves patrolling near the wolf den immediately gathered towards the collapsed wolf den.
While half of the Steel Thorn Wolves were frantically digging the collapsed cave entrance.
The other half of the Steel Thorn Wolves rushed towards the 2027 team desperately, determined to stop their attack.
With the experience of the previous landing battle, the cooperation and combat of the new recruits of the 2027 team were much smoother than before.
In less than five minutes, at the cost of three casualties, all the dozen Steel Thorn Wolves that blocked them were wiped out.
Without much hesitation, Li Kang immediately organized the 2027 team and continued to attack the dozen Steel Thorn Wolves that were digging the collapsed cave entrance.
Just when they were about to rush to the collapsed cave entrance, the ground at the collapsed cave entrance suddenly surged.
A giant Steel Thorn Wolf that was three times larger than an ordinary Steel Thorn Wolf broke out from the ground.
"Not good, it's the second-level alien creature Steel Thorn Wolf King, everyone be careful! "
The knowledgeable Li Kang recognized the identity of this alien creature at the first time and shouted to warn everyone.
But the distance of the charge was still too close.
The wolf king whose cave was destroyed was already very angry. When he saw that most of his people were killed by humans, his eyes glowed red and he swung his claws at the humans closest to him.
Instantly, the bodies of the recruits were torn into pieces.
"Keep your distance and spread out in an encirclement formation, and focus on the wolf king first! "
Li Kang gave the order, and everyone surrounded the Wolf King and immediately focused their fire on the Steel Thorn Wolf King.
However, the hardness of the Steel Thorn Wolf King's metal skin was obviously not at the same level as that of an ordinary first-level Steel Thorn Wolf.
Under the concentrated fire of everyone, it only suffered very minor injuries.
The Steel Thorn Wolf King roared to the sky in pain, and the dozen or so surviving Steel Thorn Wolves also attacked Team 2027.
The members of Team 2027 were originally in a dispersed formation.
At this moment, most of them were concentrating their firepower on attacking the Wolf King, and there was a lack of firepower to suppress the dozen or so Steel Thorn Wolves that were rushing over.
Several more recruits who were left alone were bitten to death by the Steel Thorn Wolf Pack.
Li Kang realized that he had issued the wrong order, and immediately changed the order:
"First eliminate the wolf pack, and then focus on the Steel Thorn Wolf King! ”
It was not just the Steel Thorn Wolf Pack that was bloodthirsty. The remaining members of Team 2027 also became bloodthirsty after seeing more than a dozen of their companions sacrificed.
They fought the Steel Thorn Wolf Pack with their superpowers as if they were risking their lives.
The Wolf King, who lacked firepower suppression, also showed his power again and shot at the members of Team 2027 who were closest to him.
Seeing this, Liu Cheng, who was far away, immediately turned his gun and shot at the Steel Thorn Wolf King's eyes.
However, the power of the kinetic rifle was really limited. He did not even penetrate the diaphragm of the Wolf King's eyes, and could only slightly affect the Wolf King's vision.
The Wolf King rushed into the crowd with pain in his eyes. After a while of random slapping and scratching, several more recruits died under the Wolf King's claws.
Fortunately, the bloodthirsty Team 2027 quickly eliminated the last dozen Steel Thorn Wolves.
He turned his gun back and shot the Steel Thorn Wolf The king was surrounded.
The crowd ignored the huge consumption of physical energy and desperately used their superpowers to attack the Steel Thorn Wolf King.
Although the Steel Thorn Wolf King could only defend.
However, if this continued, the physical energy of the crowd would definitely be exhausted first, and then the roles of the attacking and defending sides would be reversed.
Li Kang understood this truth, but he could not think of any other way.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Tian Tiantian rushed to the Steel Thorn Wolf King, jumped up, and jumped on the Steel Thorn Wolf King.
The Steel Thorn Wolf King wanted to kick Tian Tiantian to death, and Tian Tiantian took advantage of the momentum to jump again on the Steel Thorn Wolf King's legs.
The moment his hands touched the most vulnerable abdomen of the Steel Thorn Wolf King, a large layer of ice froze on the abdomen.
Li Kang saw what Tian Tiantian meant, and immediately shouted to the 2027 team:
"Focus on the wolf king's abdomen! "
Everyone understood that this was to use the toughness change caused by the rapid switching of metal elements between low temperature and high temperature to break the skin of the Steel Thorn Wolf.
Everyone used their last strength to hit the frozen part of the wolf king's abdomen.
Crack!
The Steel Thorn Wolf King's abdomen was pierced by everyone's concentrated fire attack.
The attack entered the Steel Thorn Wolf King's abdomen and instantly blew the wolf king's internal organs into pieces of flesh and blood.
The Steel Thorn Wolf King finally couldn't support his body and fell to the ground with a bang.
After seeing that Team 2027 finally won the battle at the cost of sacrificing more than a dozen people.
Song Ziming, who was hiding in the distance and observing, finally nodded slightly.
This result is much better than he expected.
Although the current assessment method of new recruits of the Human Alliance Army is a bit cruel.
However, compared to the war situation where one or two planets with hundreds of billions of people may be destroyed every day.
This assessment method of quickly accumulating experience is already recognized as the best way to supplement the shortage of troops on the front line.
