There was a fire in the Dongliu camp.
About twenty looters, led by two centurions, took advantage of the thick fog in the forest in the early morning and attacked here in two directions.
There was no sign.
Gunshots suddenly rang out!
The old guard guarding the village gate was shot dead, and five Molotov cocktails flew towards the village, hitting the wooden fence and the house at the village gate, officially kicking off the looting.
The looters wore coats made of hyena skin, with accessories made of human bones and animal teeth hanging around their necks. The eviscerator rifles with bayonets were like spears in their hands.
Screams and howls came one after another, and the rude and unbridled laughter and gunshots turned this place into a purgatory on earth.
The fence wall of the village was on fire, and the fire spread from north to south. In the smoke, it was impossible to know how many people came.
Men and women ran desperately out of the village. In the panic, some people fell down from time to time and were caught up by the predators chasing behind them.
If they were valuable as captives, they would be beaten, tied up and thrown on the side of the road. If they were not valuable as captives, they would be killed on the spot by slashing their necks or stabbing them in the back.
At first, some people tried to resist, picked up hunting rifles and bows and arrows to fight back bravely, and even thought of dying together. They rushed forward with axes for chopping trees.
However, the cruel reality is that almost all struggles are in vain.
In the fight with cold weapons, these survivors are no match for the predators in terms of skills and equipment.
The hunters who took up guns to resist had not fired a few shots before they were pressed behind the bunkers by dense bullets and could not move. In the end, they were either shot dead on the street when retreating, or stabbed into sieves by countless bayonets.
In fact, the survivors of Dongliu Camp were not weak.
But unfortunately, they encountered bone chewers...
These people are completely different from the looters they encountered before!
They are not only well-equipped, but also well-trained.
When advancing, someone will cover the shooting, and when charging, they know when to gather together and when to split up.
Even after they have entered the stronghold, they did not scatter like a handful of sand, but planned to sweep and eliminate the resistance in the village, and divided and surrounded the fleeing survivors and drove them to the northwest corner of the village.
There is a mud wall there, which is also the thickest part of the wall in the whole village.
The house next to it is far away, and there is no place to step on. The survivors who were driven there are like lambs in a sheepfold, and they can only wait to be slaughtered.
The man with a fist-sized skull hanging on his neck and a protruding jaw, holding an automatic rifle wrapped with tape, fired two shots into the sky, and shouted fiercely at the panicked survivors.
"Hold your head with both hands and kneel on the ground!"
"If I see you make any small moves, I will smash your skulls with the butt of my gun!"
His name is Yu, and he is a centurion under Gangya. He was ordered to lead his men to search for supplies in the nearby area with another centurion named "Iron Knee".
His eyes swept over the villagers, and Yu's eyes stayed on a few women who were not bad looking.
A trace of greed flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down, cursed, and turned around to ask his men to search for supplies.
"Hurry up! Take away the food and valuables, and burn the rest!"
"Don't dilly-dally!"
"If you want to have fun, wait until we get back to the base, there will be plenty of time for you to mess around!"
The supplies prepared for the large army were snatched away by a group of unidentified survivors. Their boss did not intend to give up, and decided to plunder on the spot, and search for the food, cotton clothes, fuel and other supplies they needed from the nearby survivor settlements.
Before setting off, the staff officer in the navy blue coat specifically told them to fight quickly and decisively, and not to linger in the battle, let alone waste time on having fun.
If it weren't for the prestige of the staff officer, Yu would never leave just like that, and he would have to take his brothers to have fun.
In the Bone Chewing Tribe, the staff officers in navy blue coats have a high status.
They didn't know how to fight before, and they had never won so easily like this.
Thanks to those people in navy blue coats, they are now almost invincible. Not only have they solved their enemies, but they have also swept across the entire central region. There are almost no survivors who can stop them.
The culture of the plunderers is the worship of the strong. Whoever can lead them to rob more slaves and treasures is their alpha wolf!
Even Lord Steel Teeth respects the staff officer. Yu doesn't want to be caught as a typical example and shot as a sacrifice.
He knew his leader's character very well. He was merciless when it came to his enemies and his own people.
He pulled out all the more than 20 seriously injured friendly soldiers he picked up in the morning and killed them. Yu still remembers what their leader said at that time.
A burden, not worthy of living!
The villagers were taken to the well in the center of the village.
This is the village square.
Food, clothing, and daily necessities... all the valuable spoils were searched out of the house and thrown into the open space.
Two looters walked up and pushed them with bayonets under the muzzles of their guns, dividing the villagers into two groups according to the criteria of useful and useless.
They would kill a group of people who couldn't walk as reserve food.
Then let the rest of the people carry their spoils and follow them back to the base.
There, what awaits them will be a more cruel hell...
Seeing a looter carrying a bag of yams from his home, the old man kneeling on the ground didn't know where he got the courage from, and he rolled and crawled over, hugged the looter's calf and begged bitterly.
"That's the last bit of food in our family, please... at least leave us some."
The looter was stunned at first, then smiled grimly, and knocked the old man to the ground with a gun butt.
"Where did you get the old man!"
Leave a little?
Think about how to save your life first!
With a bang of a gunshot, the old man fell in the snow, blood oozing from his head.
The looter grabbed his collar with one hand, dragged him from the middle of the road to the side, stripped off his clothes and threw them into the pile of spoils.
The survivors around were silent.
The brutality of the looters made their hands and feet cold, no one dared to speak, and no one dared to resist.
Blood spread from the entrance of the village all the way to the well in the center of the village, and also spread to the depths of their hearts.
These people are devils!
Looking at his grandfather lying in the corner, the boy covered his screaming sister and stared at the man who killed his grandfather, with hatred flashing in his eyes.
It seemed that he noticed the boy's sight.
The predator looked at him with interest, as if he had found something interesting, and walked in front of him.
"Is that old thing your father?"
The boy didn't speak, just stared at him.
The predator narrowed his eyes, suddenly noticed the girl in his arms, and a trace of evil flashed in his eyes.
Thinking of something fun, he pulled out a rusty dagger from the side of his boots, threw it in front of the boy, and said in a teasing tone.
"Give you a chance."
"If you beat me, I'll let you go."
"If you lose, she's mine."
The neighbor kneeling next to him pulled the boy and pleaded with the predator.
"He's still a child...let him go."
"Did I ask you a question?"
The looters pulled the bolt impatiently.
However, before he could raise the muzzle of the gun, he was hit by something, and a string of blood mist exploded on his back.
Bang!
The thunderous sound of gunfire came from afar, echoing in the forest.
The blood spurted from the looters chest, splashing the faces of the survivors around. People fell to the ground in panic, fled into the buildings, and hid behind the bunkers.
The looters around had no time to stop him. Their faces were also full of panic. They looked around and fired at the slope outside the village.
However, they chose the wrong direction, and the bullets fell on the snow pile about a hundred meters away from Ye Shi and Kuangfeng.
Seeing that no one noticed him, the boy picked up a rusty dagger on the ground and pounced on the predator who was shot in the chest like a rabbit. He stabbed him in the chest like crazy, and stabbed him like a meat chopping knife.
The predator was still twitching at first, struggling to avoid it, but later blood gushed out of his mouth and nose, his eyes were blurred, and he stopped moving.
The predator not far away saw it, raised his rifle and fired a volley at the boy while cursing.
In the chaos, the bullets whizzed by, and it was unknown where they hit. The boy rolled over to the right side of the corpse, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
"Damn it, I can't stand it anymore!"
This game is good in other aspects, but sometimes the reality is a bit redundant!
Ye Shi pulled the bolt while cursing, aimed at the predator who was eyeing the boy, and pulled the trigger again.
Bang!
This time it was a headshot!
The looters whose skulls were smashed fell silently into the snow pile beside the stone well.
"It's okay, Fang Chang and Jie Yan just arrived... It doesn't matter if they arrive a second earlier or later."
After taking a deep breath, Kuang Feng calmly held the telescope, and after searching the village for a while, he quickly locked onto the man with his jaw tilted forward.
"Did you see the shack with a red cloth hanging on it at 2 o'clock? The man next to it has a skull hanging on his chest, and he is suspected to be the leader of the looters."
"I saw it."
"Kill him"
As he was talking, Kuang Feng suddenly saw that the man's eyes were shooting straight at him.
The moment their eyes met, the man suddenly pounced to the side like a leopard.
Bang!
The gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the snow, splashing a string of snowflakes.
Ye Shi, who was pulling the bolt, moved his eyes away from the sniper scope in a daze, unable to believe that the shot was actually dodged.
"What the hell? What's going on?"
"We are on the west side..." Kuangfeng looked up at the rising sun in the east, his expression solemn, "I was careless."
The west side is a high slope.
But this side is sunny!
Now the sun has risen and the morning mist has dissipated. It is probably the reflection of the sniper scope that exposed their position!
But Kuangfeng felt that things might not be that simple.
The man's insight and reaction speed were almost incredible to him.
At this time, Kuangfeng suddenly remembered the "bear" that was knocked down by the manager with a hammer in the previous decisive battle with the Blood Hand Clan.
Could it be...
Is it the awakened one! ?
Ye Shi, who was obsessed with one shot, did not stop. He immediately adjusted the muzzle of the gun to aim at the next target and shot the predator lying next to the wellhead to death.
"The third one!"
If we can't kill the leader, it's good to kill some living forces.
However, at that moment, a burst of bullets suddenly came from a distance, whizzing over the heads of the two.
Although they didn't hit, they forced Ye Shi and Kuang Feng to retreat to the back slope.
"Fuck! How can the firepower of these predators be so strong!"
"..."
Kuang Feng didn't say anything, silently took out a wooden-handled grenade from his waist, carefully leaned out of the bunker, picked up the telescope and searched in the village, and quickly locked the source of firepower pouring down on them.
The man held an automatic rifle in his hand, with a bipod and a disc-shaped drum hanging under the barrel.
Good guy.
A squad machine gun modified from an automatic rifle?
"Distance 250 meters, fuse time 6 seconds, throwing initial velocity needs to be more than 41 seconds... No, it has to be faster." Kuang Feng calculated in his mind while muttering softly in his mouth.
Under normal circumstances, projectiles cannot be thrown that far, let alone with the same initial velocity as a javelin.
However...
His right hand is not an ordinary right hand.
Not to mention a javelin.
Even a cannonball is no problem!
He raised his arm and exerted force, and the grenade flew out of Kuangfeng's hand, drawing a parabola and smashing into the village.
The bullets of the light machine gun quickly shot in, suppressing him back, but with a bang from afar, the fierce firepower suddenly rose up, swept through the treetops, and suddenly stopped.
The snow sliding down from the treetops hit the two people.
Ye Shi shook his head, got out of the snow pile, and said excitedly while re-mounting the sniper rifle.
"Awesome brother, more than 200 meters, you are simply a human mortar!"
Movies don't dare to shoot like this!
Picking up the telescope again to observe, Kuangfeng replied expressionlessly.
"This right hand can adjust the strength... it's quite useful once you get used to it."
"Awesome! But what if your equipment explodes? Will you be uncomfortable using your original hand?"
"Shut up."
The position has been exposed.
Logically, it should be moved at this time.
However, there is a forest nearby, and only a gentle slope on the west side can overlook the village. Even if you move, there is no better sniper point.
Besides, Fang Chang and his brother, Quitting Smoking, have already reached the east gate of the village, and they need support!
I saw Quitting Smoking, holding a sickle assault rifle, leading the way, rushing in from the gate, and advancing with the support of Fang Chang's bow and arrow.
Ye Shi, who had re-mounted his gun, pulled the trigger cleanly and shot down a rifleman who was targeting the two of them, covering the two as they continued to move forward.
The attacks launched from far and near at the same time caught the looters in the village off guard.
In just 5 minutes of fighting, more than 20 looters have been reduced by 40%.
The remaining looters can only hide in the building, rely on bunkers and obstacles to avoid sniper rifles, and stalemate with the uninvited guests who entered the village.
Morale began to waver!
"I think we can wipe out both of their teams!" Ye Shi pulled the bolt and said excitedly, "There is no need for any reinforcements at all!"
"Don't be careless, keep your eyes on your target..."
Before the voice fell, Kuangfeng suddenly saw a red flare rising from the village to the sky.
A sense of badness rose from the bottom of his heart.
"We should move."
"Move?"
Ye Shi was slightly stunned, thinking whether this was necessary. People were pressed in the building and dared not move. What else can we do with them?
However, at this moment, the roar of the engine came from a distance.
Kuangfeng was startled and immediately raised the telescope and looked in the direction of the engine sound.
Two trucks stopped at the edge of the forest to the north of them, about five or six hundred meters away.
About forty people jumped off the trucks and divided into four teams, advancing quickly from north to south. And their current position was exactly on the route of the team on the westernmost side!
Ye Shi also noticed the situation in the north, and his face changed instantly.
"Fuck... this time it's over."
Forty people!
One mouthful of spitting at them would be enough to spit them to death!
Kuang Feng's face was also not very good.
"Can we hit them?"
Ye Shi swallowed and spit.
"Can we hit them... what the hell! I don't even have forty bullets!"
Not to mention that the moving target may not be able to be shot one by one, even if every shot is shot in the head, he can't get rid of more than forty!
After hearing Ye Shi's answer, Kuang Feng only took one second to make a judgment.
"No choice but to retreat!"
Although the reward for the mission was very tempting, the strength of the opponent had exceeded their business scope.
If they retreated now, they would only lose some ammunition. If they continued to fight, their equipment would be left here.
However, almost at the same time as he made the judgment, the VM on his arm suddenly vibrated.
A pop-up window appeared.
[Mission: Reinforce Dongliu Camp (Completed)]
[Mission (New): Cooperate with reinforcements to defeat the looters! (In progress)]
Kuangfeng was stunned at first, then his face was filled with ecstasy, and he suddenly looked up to the south.
In the woods, dozens of figures had emerged from the outline of the forest!
Ye Shi, who was lying on the ground, also saw the situation in the distance and shouted out in surprise.
"It's reinforcements! Our reinforcements have arrived!"
Before he finished speaking, as the charge whistle sounded, the shouting and killing in the distance was boiling.
"Brothers, charge!"
"Oli Gei!"
"Kill!"
The earth-shaking shouts swept from south to north, like thousands of troops rushing in the forest.
The people have not arrived yet.
But the overwhelming momentum has frightened the looters in the village, and they are sweating all over.
A drop of sweat slid down Yu's forehead.
He was trapped in the wooden house by the sniper rifle and didn't dare to look out. He didn't know how long it would take for the reinforcements to arrive.
He only knew one thing.
If he didn't retreat, he and his brothers would die miserably!
"Retreat! This sound is at least a hundred-man team!" Tie Xi, who was hiding in another wooden house, shouted at him.
Reaching a consensus with another centurion, Yu immediately made a decision and shouted loudly.
"Retreat!"
"Everyone retreat!"
In the Dongliu camp.
The looters could no longer hold on, leaving their shelters and wounded behind, fleeing from the occupied wooden houses and sheds, and fleeing to the north.
The sound of gunfire gradually faded away.
The survivors who had been hiding in cabinets, under beds, and in ruins came out of their hiding places.
Looking at the destroyed village and the bodies scattered on the ground, they were at a loss, and soon some began to cry, or knelt silently on the ground.
It was not so much despair.
It was numbness.
No one knew how to face all this, and no one knew how to go on.
The boy found his sister, patted her on the back of her head, and muttered a few words to comfort her.
Ma Zhanqiu, the village chief of Dongliu Camp, found his eldest son who had been beaten into a sieve by the looters on the street leading to the north gate.
He held a shotgun in his hand, his eyes wide open, and two unloaded bullets in his hand.
The old man's Adam's apple moved, and he closed his eyes and remained silent.
Fang Chang, who was carrying a mechanical compound bow, and Jie Yan, who was holding a rifle, walked out from one side of the street.
Looking at the mess and the miserable situation like hell on earth, Jie Yan spitted.
"Has this game always been so real..."
"It has always been, and before you came, we have seen worse. Fortunately, there is an emotionally blunt filter. Taking off the helmet is like having a lucid dream. The part of the dream that makes your brain uncomfortable will be blurred, so don't worry," Fang Chang patted Jie Yan's shoulder, "Just get used to it."
If you can't get used to it, there are more relaxed ways to play.
For example, fishing, hunting, picking mushrooms, etc.
This game does not stipulate how players must play. In fact, the operator has been encouraging players to find a way to play that suits them within the rules.
Jie Yan nodded as if he understood.
Indeed...
If it was in reality, he would have been scared to death, or even stunned. How could he chat and laugh with his teammates like this?
We are all ordinary people, not war gods with crooked mouths.
But think about it, the body in the game is different from the real body.
If the body is as weak as the real body, what's the point of playing?
With his body hollowed out by cigarettes and alcohol, he would have to catch his breath for a while after running 20 or 30 meters, not to mention holding a rifle and shooting at the same time.
No doubt, any scavenger can pin him to the ground and beat him...
