The ninth platoon spread out and retreated while the Spider Zergs were hot on their heels.
"Balls! Did this detector broke?"
Overbite knocked the handheld detector with a fist agitatedly. He was confused by what he saw: red dots all around them.
They heard another howling, and the rocks and earth around them started to tremble. Behind a piece of large boulder next to the team, another Tank Zerg emerged, accompanied by a wave of spider Zergs. The situation had gone beyond the control of a platoon.
"Retreat! Retreat!" Jansining shouted, but the shouts of the Zergs had drowned his voice.
It was then clear to Jansining that they had entered a hive. He lamented over the inaccurate information they had received from the higher-ups. They had missed the location of the hive by a day worth of travel.
But, there was no time for lamenting, Jansining figured that he should lead his team out of this hellhole as soon as possible.
