Chapter 88 Interception
The fields at night are particularly lonely. Looking from afar, the forests and mountains in the distance outline the undulating shadows, just like dark mouths that choose people to eat, making people feel a little thrilling.
The cold wind whistled by, making many soldiers shrink their necks involuntarily and quickly stretched out their hands to cover their collars.
A patrol soldier wiped his nose and couldn't help complaining: "This has been stationed for four nights. When will it be the end?"
"Stop talking nonsense, patrol well, otherwise the captain will feel good if you see you." The companion glared at him.
"I'll complain soon. Are I wrong? We are the only battalion here for so many days. We have no need to change defenses. We have to deal with the two monsters from time to time. After four days, everyone can't hold on."
"Just wait until the people from the above department come."
"I said that, I waited day after day, and I don't know when they will arrive." The soldier smashed his mouth, "You said who was sent from above to deal with such a terrifying monster. Those two monsters cannot even kill machine guns and rocket launchers."
His companion rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Can you say less...well? A car is coming!"
The two of them looked closely and found that a jeep was driving slowly over 300 meters.
"There is a sign of an army on the car, and it is one of our own people."
After the soldier said that, he quickly took out the communicator around his waist and started reporting.
Five minutes later, two young men who got out of the jeep were welcomed into a large tent behind the defense line.
There were two senior officers in the tent waiting for an old and a young man. When they saw them lifting the curtains and walking in, they immediately greeted them with a smile on their faces.
"Consultant Yang, Consultant Du, welcome, welcome, you are finally here."
Yang Li and Du Hua nodded to the two officers respectively, swept across the ranks on their shoulders without a trace, then looked at the older one, heading straight to the point and asked, "Major, what's the situation?"
"As of now, we have defeated the alien beast three times, with an average interval of about 35 hours each time, and the most recent time was 27 hours ago." The elderly officer replied.
Yang Li and Du Hua looked at each other after hearing this, and frowned slightly at the same time.
The strange beasts have the habit of swallowing meteorites to recover from injuries after being injured. If the interval is 27 hours, it means that the injuries they have recovered almost, which means that the battle will become much more difficult.
After a pause, Du Hua asked again: "How many meteorites are left?"
"The volume is about one-half less than when it first landed, and it is estimated that it is less than five kilograms left."
This time the answer was another young officer, whose rank on his shoulder showed that he was a lieutenant.
Du Hua glanced at him and said lightly: "According to your words, the two strange beasts were seriously injured three times in total. I'm afraid that there were more than so few meteorites left, at most three or four kilograms."
The young officer was stunned: "But based on our observations..."
"Are you doubting my professional judgment?" Du Hua interrupted him without hesitation.
When the young officer heard this, his brow raised and his face flashed with anger. He was still waiting to be argued, but the major next to him reached out and pressed his shoulders. The latter winked at him, then nodded to Du Hua and smiled:
"Consultant Du is a professional. Of course we will not doubt your judgment. It must be that my subordinates have made a wrong estimate. I will let them observe it again."
As soon as these words were said, Du Hua's cold expression relieved a few minutes later, and he nodded and said, "It's still the major who is reasonable."
"Then I have to ask you to dispatch heavy firepower to cooperate with us to kill the strange beasts."
"Okay, I'll order someone to arrange it and launch an attack in fifteen minutes. Is it OK?"
Du Hua nodded, said nothing more, and turned around and walked out of the tent with Yang Li.
Until the two figures disappeared into the curtain, the young officer finally couldn't help but said indignantly: "Major, those two people clearly want to intercept the meteorite!"
The major glanced at him and said, "I'm not blind, so how could I not see it."
"Then, why are you still..."
The major was silent for a moment, patted his shoulder, and sighed, "You will understand in the future."
Outside the tent, Yang Li walked two steps quickly to catch up with Du Hua, side by side with him, frowned and asked, "Is it okay for you to intercept meteorites so openly?"
"What's the problem?" Du Hua sneered, "You don't know the current situation of the Federation. How can you still pay attention to us? When you get the Meteorite Stone, you will give one to several leaders in the department. This matter will naturally be covered up. We will divide the remaining two equally, and each person can get at least three or four hundred grams."
"Three or four hundred grams of meteorite stone, do you know what it means?"
Yang Li's eyes lit up immediately, and his breathing could not help but become a little quicker.
Of course he knows what this means.
Three or four hundred grams of meteorite stones can be sold on the black market at least five or six million white crown coins!
Even for the extraordinary silver-level people, this is a huge sum of money. Ordinary people will never make so much money in their entire lives.
Du Hua saw his expression in his eyes and showed a meaningful smile on his face.
"This big ship of the Federation may be wiped out at any time, and we must prepare early."
He pointed to the crater in the distance and chuckled, "There are not many opportunities like this. If you don't make a good deal, how can you be worthy of yourself?"
Yang Li's eyes flashed for a few seconds, and he nodded with a heavy focus.
As the order was issued, the soldiers quickly became busy. Fifteen minutes later, a fully armed elite team of fifty people had gathered at the entrance of the defense line, guarding Yang Li and Du Hua in the middle, and carefully advancing towards the crater.
The army's abnormal approach immediately aroused the alert from the strange beast. Two fierce roars immediately came from the crater, followed by two huge figures and landed on the ground with a bang. The sharp claws drew deep marks on the ground.
Under the moonlight, the ferocious and violent appearance of the two strange beasts can be clearly seen.
Even though I have seen it many times, it is the first time I have seen the true face of a strange beast so close. Many soldiers breathe stuttered and couldn't help but hold the gun in their hands tightly. The blue veins on the back of their hands highlighted, demonstrating the inner tension and fear.
roar!
The two strange beasts paused slightly for a moment and then jumped fiercely towards the army.
"Open fire!"
The leader was the young officer in the tent before. As soon as the strange beast had made an action, he made a quick decision and issued an order loudly.
Da da da da da!
The harsh guns burst into pieces in an instant.
This time the army had no intention of keeping their hands and fired with all their might as well. The four machine guns in front burst into dazzling sparks at the same time. Countless bullets gathered into a torrent and swept violently towards the two strange beasts, instantly knocking them to their limbs and lying on the ground.
The stratum corneum on the body surface exploded in an instant, and scarlet blood flowers bloomed.
And this was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, two soldiers carrying portable rocket launchers rushed forward, aimed at the strange beast that was suppressed by the torrent of the barrage, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
