"…Who said that only those who stand in the light are heroes?"
While humming an off-tune song, the fat rat shook the iron can in his hand, and tons of fuel were poured on the empty roof.
Since he unlocked the "hidden profession" and became the sharp blade under the cloak of the administrator, Qiangrensunan felt like he was reborn and felt that he had found the meaning of his existence again.
As expected, compared to pretending to be cool on the front battlefield, it is more in line with his game style to do bad things in places where people can't see.
So what if no one knows?
It's enough for the administrator to know.
After thinking this through, Qiangrensunan felt that he was at least half responsible for the plague in Xizhou City.
"Human thing, Die! Die!"
Giggling evilly, he shook the fuel can in his hand until the last drop of fuel was poured out.
After doing all this, he stood up and glanced around. Seeing that no one had discovered him, he quickly slipped away from the roof along the safe route discovered by his brothers.
A group of mutant rats with iron cans tied to their backs followed closely behind excitedly.
These iron cans on their backs were certainly not made by Qiangrensunan himself, but were dropped by Mosquito Brother in the jungle three kilometers away from Qingshi County at night, and he ran to pick them up according to the mark on the VM. .
Those iron cans were strung together with ropes, filled with biomass fuel with thickeners and combustion aids, and dropped with parachutes.
Although many cans were scratched by branches or simply fell to the ground and leaked, most of them survived.
In one and a half months, Qiangrensunan, relying on his familiarity with the terrain and his short and sturdy body, gradually transported more than 2,100 iron cans to the hiding place in Qingshi County, and transported a total of nearly 11.2 tons of mixed fuel!
And in the early hours of last night, when everyone was offline, he received the task of pouring the fuel mixed with thickeners on the roof of the weak link in the northern defense zone of the Predator.
The mission to attack Qingshi County will start in the early morning, and he knows this news earlier than any other player.
With the help of a group of brothers, the mission of forcing others to do something difficult has been completed for the most part.
Although his rat brothers are a little stupid and can't do the job of dumping fuel, they can always understand the order of "follow the boss".
In fact, they don't know what Qiangrensinan wants to do, let alone what the smelly and sticky liquid is for, but the action in groups makes them very excited.
Even those humans who can kill them with one foot will subconsciously panic when they see them appear.
This makes them feel that they have conquered the city.
And the fattest "one" that brings them together is their king!
...
"What's the smell."
The north side of Qingshi County.
The half-collapsed five-story roof was filled with logs and concrete, and the garbage everywhere on the wasteland filled the broken building tightly, leaving only a water-cooled light machine gun on the narrow firing hole.
Standing at the entrance of the machine gun bunker, Heifeng sniffed, frowned and muttered.
"Why is it so smelly!"
He smelled a strange smell from the beginning.
Apparently he was not the only one who smelled it.
Feng Si, who was squatting next to the machine gun, also wrinkled his nose.
"Hiss... I smelled it too."
This is the sentry post on the north side of Qingshi County.
Not far from them is the only road from Qingshi County to Xizhou City - although that road is so dilapidated that it can't be called a road.
Their staff officer Bernie probably had a grudge against trees in his previous life. In the past few months, he has been mobilizing them to cut down trees, build fortifications, and strengthen bunkers.
Not only were a large number of firepower points deployed in the south, which was closest to Yuanxi Town, but there were also many construction projects in the north, which was close to Xizhou City.
He even suggested to Lord Shiya that a hundred slaves be assigned to repair the dilapidated road.
In the words of the staff officer, the land is dead, but people are alive. The enemy may not necessarily launch an attack from the closest position, but may also bypass their side or even the back. Solid fortifications and unobstructed supply lines can help them gain more initiative on the battlefield.
However, to be honest, Heifeng doubted whether the enemy really had the courage to take the initiative to come to the door.
They had a whole team of 1,000 people stationed here. The equipment they took over from the legion was not just a few rifles, but also dozens of 100mm artillery and trucks towing artillery.
Not only that, there were tens of thousands of people stationed in Xizhou City behind them. Once this place was attacked, a large number of reinforcements could arrive at the front line in one day at the latest.
However, the faint stench still made Heifeng worried.
"I'll go out and take a look."
After saying this, he grabbed the "Switch" rifle leaning against the door and followed the pungent smell.
He went downstairs to the street.
A breeze happened to blow past his face.
He roughly judged that the smell came from the roof of the house next door. Heifeng loaded the rifle cautiously and approached it carefully.
He climbed the stairs with low steps.
However, when he went up the stairs to the roof and pushed open the half-closed door, he saw a scene that he would never forget.
He saw a fat rat that was half a person's height standing up, humming a tuneless song while shaking the iron can in his hand up and down, spreading the black fuel everywhere.
That scene was so terrifying.
The rat not only spoke human language, but also sang a song.
The absurd scene made Heifeng suspect that he had hallucinations. He was stunned on the spot and even forgot the movements of his hands.
The fat rat did not notice him.
However, the "little rats" surrounding the fat rat immediately noticed the uninvited guest, bared their fangs at him, and hissed and growled.
Qiangren Suonan noticed the movement behind him, turned around, and his round eyes happened to meet the sight of the predator at the door.
With a smile on his face that he thought resolved the embarrassment, Lao Shuqiang threw away the iron can in his hand without hesitation and quickly pulled out the pistol inserted in the belt around his waist.
However, the predator was obviously not a vegetarian. He quickly recovered from his surprise and even pulled the trigger faster than Qiangren Suonan.
Bang——!
There was a loud gunshot on the roof.
Qiangren Suonan groaned, his chest was pierced by a rifle bullet, and he fell backwards next to the rusty water tank.
However, this shot did not make him lose his fighting power. He aimed his pistol at the entrance of the top floor and fired three shots in a row, forcing the predators who were about to rush up to retreat.
The bullets whizzed past his head, and Heifeng felt his hair stand on end. He had no idea what was going on.
A mutant rat half the height of a man was scary enough. Not only did it speak human language, but it also took a tank and poured fuel on the ground? !
It even pulled out a pistol and fired at him? !
He didn't take drugs last night!
At this time, the teammates on the rooftop next to him probably heard the gunshots and shouted at him.
"Brother, what's going on there!?"
While firing at the fat rat hiding behind the bunker, Heifeng shouted in horror.
"Rat! A rat half the height of a man! Damn it! He actually fired at me!"
"Rat?!"
His teammates were obviously confused and silent for a while.
Heifeng knew that he couldn't explain it clearly, so he could only grit his teeth and continue firing, hoping that the patrol team would hear the gunshots and come to support him quickly.
Although the mouse didn't have the "hard-working" DEBUFF, it was still not very good at using human weapons.
Qiangrensunan, who was shot, felt that his life was slipping away rapidly, and a lot of blood flowed out of his stomach with every breath.
"Damn it! This physical attribute is completely useless!"
"Forget it, anyway, my resurrection CD is only 24 hours..."
After firing the last bullet in the magazine, Qiangrensunan made up his mind, threw away the pistol that was no longer stable, and took out the matchbox with trembling fingers.
A wisp of flame ignited at his fingertips.
The flame was very weak.
However, at the moment of seeing the light, whether it was the mouse brother hiding around and shivering, or the predator squatting at the entrance of the corridor, their faces showed fear as if they had seen a ghost.
"No!" Heifeng cried out in surprise.
However, the fat rat had already thrown the match on the ground and laughed sharply.
"Hahaha! Human stuff——"
"Die!"
The flames rose up and engulfed the fat rat.
The strong man standing in the flames and laughing wildly was like a devil from hell, and the raging fire burning beside him instantly turned the entire top floor into purgatory.
The raging fire spread rapidly along the fuel on the ground and the wet marks left by the rats, igniting all the iron cans on the rats' backs.
The rats on fire screamed and struggled like crazy, jumping up and down and running away. Before being burned to death, they brought the flames to the nearby buildings.
The continuous gunshots and billowing smoke quickly attracted the attention of the nearby patrol team, and a team of ten people quickly came to support.
Heifeng, holding a rifle, fled from the smoke in a panic, and happened to run into a centurion, who grabbed his collar.
"What's the matter with the fire here!"
Heifeng stuttered when he met the murderous sight.
"Old, a rat, a rat half a man's height, it was pouring fuel upstairs, and after I found it, it lit the match..."
Hearing this incoherent narrative, the centurion was stunned for a moment, and then he said angrily.
"Do you think I'm stupid?!"
This is not the time to talk about this.
The centurion loosened his hand that was holding Heifeng's collar, and asked his men to watch the suspected arsonist while ordering others to put out the fire immediately.
There are no lakes or rivers in Qingshi County. Their water source mainly depends on purified rainwater and several wells. If the fire is allowed to continue to spread, the entire southern part of Qingshi County may become a fire scene!
However, at this moment, a sharp scream suddenly came from the sky.
Before the centurion could react to what happened, a torrential rain of bullets came whistling in, and the concrete road under his feet was blasted into pieces!
The cement debris knocked away by the bullets raged on the corner of the street, and a dilapidated concrete wall was directly blasted into a steel skeleton.
Heifeng, who lay down in time, escaped by luck, but the buddy next to him was not so lucky. Three 10mm machine guns directly rubbed off half of the man's body!
Looking up at the "sky fire" falling from the sky, the rats that survived the fire stopped fleeing.
In their view, the fire that fell from the sky was the masterpiece of their boss, and those arrogant humans were fleeing in all directions under the might of the big horned rat.
Not only did they not feel that they were sold out by the boss, but the fear in their eyes turned into admiration.
It's so cool!
...
The roar of the machine gun went away.
With his eardrums almost broken, Heifeng struggled to crawl out of the rubble.
However, everything he saw made him freeze his breath instantly.
The centurion who had grabbed his collar had been crushed into a pulp by the rain of bullets falling from the sky. And several looters next to him were also killed on the spot by machine gun fire.
Not far from Heifeng, a looter with a rifle on his back was lying on the ground, his lower body was a bloody mess, and only incomprehensible sobs and wails were left in his mouth.
There were broken limbs all around.
And all this happened in just a breath of time.
Fear was reflected in Heifeng's pupils, the rifle in his hand kept shaking, and his legs trembled involuntarily.
Sparks were constantly blown off the burning roof by the wind, and the fire had spread to the street. A loud roar came from the distance.
It was unknown whether the ammunition depot was ignited by the fire or the bombs dropped from the plane.
Heifeng raised his head and looked at the sky blankly.
Planes circled in the air like mosquitoes, and the noses of the planes spewed out flames from time to time, sweeping around the fire scene.
Countless lives were harvested in every dive.
"... Devil."
The rat that spoke human language, the flying cross that spewed fire, and the ghost-like scream...
All of this looked very much like him
Muttering with horror in his eyes, Heifeng didn't even have time to think about who their enemy was, so he moved his lead-filled legs and ran towards the machine gun bunker.
On the rooftop not far away, the water-cooled machine gun was spewing flames, madly sweeping towards the sky, venting futile firepower.
Not long after, a plane whizzed past the top of the firepower point, and then a bomb hit the building that was spewing flames.
The flames of the explosion shot up into the sky.
The hot shock wave hit Heifeng's chest, blowing him away as he was about to rush to support his teammates.
When he wiped the blood and debris on his face and struggled to get up from the ruins, the five-story building with a machine gun bunker not far away had only three and a half floors left.
And the machine gun bunker built with concrete and logs was blown to pieces.
Witnessing everything in front of him, Heifeng could no longer hold back the fear in his heart and ran out like crazy. He didn't know where to go, he just wanted to stay away from this street.
And a similar scene.
With the arrival of the Goblin Corps fighter group, it was staged everywhere in Qingshi County...
...
"Free fire!"
"Repeat it, free fire!"
The bullets whizzed around behind him, and Mosquito, whose adrenaline was soaring, shouted excitedly, swinging the joystick to do a roller maneuver to avoid.
He finally found it.
Although the machine guns of these predators were powerful and had a fast firing rate, their accuracy in air-to-air shooting was extremely poor.
Since there were no tracer bullets to correct the trajectory, these predators who had no experience in air-to-air shooting could only shoot at the sky by feeling.
He only needed to make a few simple evasive moves to shake off the firepower chasing his wing, and then turn around to attack the firepower point biting his teammates.
The tranquility of the early morning was disturbed by the noisy gunfire, and the flying bullets covered the entire sky. The entire Qingshi County was like a lit gunpowder barrel.
The fuel that was previously dumped on the roof was all ignited by tracer bullets mixed with magnesium aluminum powder and phenolic resin.
The entire southern part of Qingshi County turned into a sea of fire. The predators who did not have time to escape were burned to death in their beds. The burning streets were like walls of fire dividing the battlefield.
The predators soon fell into a dilemma.
If they put out the fire, they would have to mobilize a large number of people. However, once the crowd gathered, they would be targeted by the planes hovering in the sky.
But if they let the fire continue to spread, the supplies they stored in the south would soon turn into ashes in the sea of fire.
In the department store.
Lion Fang stood up from the ground with the help of the table, and grabbed the messenger who ran from outside to report the news in shock and anger.
"Where did the damn plane come from?!"
"I, I, I don't know, those planes came from the south... There were fifty, no, fifty-two, and they suddenly opened fire on us without a greeting."
The face of the predator stared at by the leader was full of fear, and he hesitated for a long time and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Just half a minute ago, two bombs hit the building, and the deafening roar almost made everyone here lose their hearing.
Fortunately, the building built before the war was strong enough. The two bombs only scraped off a little cement and did not cause obvious damage to the structure of the building.
But even so, it was scary enough.
"Fifty-two planes?! Are you sure?"
After listening to the messenger's report on the battle situation, Bernie's face was full of surprise.
The plunderer swallowed his saliva and nodded quickly.
"I'm sure! I counted carefully!"
Bernie's heart sank.
A month and a half ago, after listening to the intelligence brought by the apostles of the Torch Church, he thought that those blue coats could only have two or three planes at most.
But he didn't expect that dozens of them came at once...
Although it was an old propeller plane, for the Bone Chewing Tribe that lacked anti-aircraft firepower, the firepower that fell from the sky was undoubtedly fatal.
He could tell with his toes that the enemy's ground forces were probably on the way. There was no copper mine in Yuanxi Town at all, and the railway leading to Yuanxi Town was built to kill them!
If it were before, Bernie would definitely suggest that Lion Fang retreat, abandon the position to preserve strength, wait for the main force to concentrate its forces, and defeat it with a human wave offensive.
However, the other side has planes...
They would be courting death no matter which direction they retreat from.
Lion Fang looked at his staff anxiously.
"What should we do?!"
Bernie gritted his teeth and said.
"Don't panic! They only got a little air advantage, but the ground still belongs to us. Without the assistance of ground forces, it is difficult for their planes to cause effective damage to us."
"The blue jacket troops are obviously on their way here, but they chose to attack with planes first. Most likely, they have limited numbers, so they plan to use planes to create chaos and create fighter planes for the ground forces. At this time, we must not mess ourselves up first!"
Lion Fang is a battle-hardened centurion. Although he panicked for a while, he soon calmed down.
Looking at Lion Fang who gradually calmed down, Bernie gave his advice in a deep voice.
"Tell your men to find shelter nearby, and remember not to leave the shelter to engage in fire with the aircraft! All ground machine gun positions, regardless of caliber, turn their guns to shoot into the air!"
Although this is not a good idea, there is no better way now.
If we let those planes fly away after dumping their ammunition, and wait until they have replenished their ammunition and rush over with the ground troops, that would be really fatal!
The opponent is just a propeller plane.
Bullets with a caliber of more than 7mm are enough to effectively kill them!
"In addition, you need to immediately separate a team of 100 people, do your best to control the fire in the south, and protect our ammunition depots and firepower points scattered in other areas! At the same time, notify the 100-man team on the northern defense line to prepare to engage the enemy!"
"Xizhou City is less than 20 kilometers away from here, and our large forces must have noticed it."
"As long as we hold on until the reinforcements arrive, victory will belong to us!"
...
"Brothers! Disperse!"
The bullets fired from the ground suddenly became denser.
Almost all the machine gun positions raised their guns and aimed at the sky, causing great trouble to the dive-bombing gliders.
Mosquito made a prompt decision and ordered the flight formation to disperse, with the strategic locations marked on the VM map as the priority targets and the elimination of the enemy's living forces as the secondary target, and each fighting on its own.
The strategy of dispersed harassment did work, and the firepower network that rushed from the ground to the sky was dispersed along with the dispersion of the flight formation.
However, even so, there were still two unlucky guys who were unfortunately swept by machine guns during the dive.
A W-2 broke its wing in the air and crashed straight into the machine gun bunker on the roof. The cockpit of another "Moth" was shot into a sieve. Although the plane was still flying, the VM was blown out by bullets.
Looking at the two smoking planes, Mosquito felt pain in his heart and mourned for his ace pilots in his heart.
"Good brother!"
"I will avenge you!"
The combat casualties of the flight formation continued, and planes fell from the sky from time to time, but no plane escaped or parachuted.
Everyone was bloodthirsty.
Whether it was the pilots in the sky or the infantry on the ground.
The looters hiding in the ruins were not even satisfied with wasting machine gun bullets. Many people even raised their rifles and shot at the sky, regardless of whether they could hit it.
The wing was hit by several bullets after all, and a 7mm machine gun bullet even penetrated the cockpit and flew out by Mosquito's left leg.
With a peripheral glance at the VM tied to his leg, Mosquito calmly gripped the joystick to lower the flight altitude and shook off the bullets.
As the altitude dropped, the firepower behind him dropped sharply.
Ignoring the light machine gun chasing his ass and shooting, Mosquito accelerated without hesitation and ran towards the ammunition depot marked on the map.
At the moment when the sights overlapped, he skillfully pressed the bomb button.
The 100-kilogram bomb separated from the belly of the aircraft and poured straight into the half-collapsed concrete wall.
As the explosion sounded, after a short delay, the sparks shot up dozens of meters into the air.
Almost at the moment when the Mosquito pulled up the nose of the aircraft, the crackling sound of ammunition exploding resounded throughout the street, and it was as lively as the New Year.
The predators who were running away were instantly swallowed by the thick smoke and flying shrapnel. For a time, there were corpses all over the ground, and countless casualties.
"Hahaha! Happy New Year!"
The tense face finally relaxed a little excitement. The Mosquito dropped the last bomb and continued to lock the artillery position on the south side of the map.
Two 100mm artillery were hidden under the wooden bunker.
Those predators seemed to know that they had planes, and many strategic locations were camouflaged with garbage or concealment.
However, what they didn't know was that the eyes of the New Alliance were not only active in the sky, but also in the ruins on the ground.
In the past month and a half, a certain mouse had already figured out their position clearly.
Where is the ammunition depot, where is the sleeping place, where is the firing point, and even the command post hidden in the department store, all were marked on the map by him in different categories.
Although there was no one on the artillery position, Mosquito still lowered the altitude, added a burst of 10mm machine guns, and gave the artillery position hidden under the wood a hot bath to prevent someone from firing when the ground troops attacked later.
Mosquito was about to pull up the nose of the plane after the sweep, but at this moment, a thick and long tongue of fire suddenly spurted out from the dark window not far away.
Da Da Da——!
The wood chips on the left wing flew and broke into two pieces in the middle. The W-2 ground attack aircraft flying close to the roof instantly lost its balance.
"Fuck!"
Just before Mosquito could utter a curse, the belly of the plane came into close contact with the rooftop below, and it rolled sideways and crashed into the half-collapsed two-story building opposite.
This hit Mosquito's head and made him lose the connection on the spot. He had to reconnect repeatedly for ten minutes before he could log into the game again.
When he opened his blurry eyes, he found that his plane was stuck on the outer wall of the building, with the back half hanging in the air and the front half drilling into the wall.
A twisted steel bar penetrated the nose of the plane, splitting the propeller and motor in half from the middle, and stopped exactly at the position of the joystick.
Fortunately, it stopped.
If it had moved forward an inch, he wouldn't have had to spend the effort to reconnect, and would have gone back to the forum to wait for the battle report.
This time he was out of control.
"Oh my god... this is too exciting." Mosquito took a breath of cold air, but was choked by the thick smoke around him and almost squeezed out tears.
There was a big fire burning around.
According to the map, his current location should be the southernmost side of Qingshi County, just behind the position of the Chewing Bone Tribe!
And the VM who was forcing others to do something was on the rooftop not far from him...
After wiping off the sand and blood on his face, Mosquito, who knew how much hatred he had attracted, did not dare to waste a second. He hurriedly pulled out a Pu-9 submachine gun from under his seat and threw it into the building in front. Then he reached out and grabbed the exposed steel bars on the wall and got out of the broken cabin.
Almost at the same time when he got out of the cabin, bullets whizzed from the side of the street, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to turn his head back and immediately rushed to the collapsed stairs.
After escaping from the building with a dusty face, Mosquito quickly turned into an alley, but just when he was about to run away, he found that it was a dead end after running a few steps.
His face turned green, and Mosquito was about to turn back, but found that the predators had chased to the entrance of the alley.
There must be a hundred-man team here to be killed.
After discovering this lone pilot, almost all the nearby predators surrounded him.
These people did not seem to intend to simply kill him, but threw cigarettes into the alley and pushed towards him with the help of the cover.
Mosquito quickly emptied a magazine, searched around his body but could not find the second one, and was immediately desperate.
"Fuck! You guys are here to put out the fire! There are so many people who are not putting out the fire, what's the point of chasing me, a pilot!"
However, those predators did not understand what he was saying at all.
And Mosquito estimated that even if they understood, they would definitely not listen to him.
Looking at the faces with grim smiles and distorted expressions behind the thick smoke, Mosquito could not help but think of the books he had read, and shuddered involuntarily.
"Forget it, forget it, I'm not going to be a coward... See you in the forum later."
Taking out a dagger from his pocket, Mosquito prepared for the final resistance.
However, at this moment, there were suddenly a series of dense explosions in the distance, and the earth-shaking roar could be clearly heard even from a distance of dozens of miles.
The looters blocking the entrance of the alley were obviously startled by the explosions, and even their forward steps paused.
Mosquito was stunned for a moment, glanced at the time on the VM, and a trace of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face.
There is no mistake!
That is the sound of rockets!
The ground force's offensive has begun!
Without any hesitation, Mosquito reached out and pressed the headset, using all his strength to shout excitedly.
"Goblin Corps Artillery Group!"
"Fire at my coordinates!"
