Because there were no fixed roads in the Gobi Desert, the all-terrain vehicle had a hard time pulling the trailer behind it.
Its engine kept roaring at the top of its lungs. Fortunately, Talon's driving skills were quite good, so he successfully transported the vehicle to the battlefield.
After the all-terrain vehicle drove westward at a steady speed for more than an hour, Fang Linyan saw through the observation window that thick smoke rose straight into the sky from the canyon in the distance. There seemed to be many small black dots hovering in the air. He immediately knew that they should have arrived at their destination.
As they continued to drive closer, they could see that the canyon was already littered with corpses. Dozens of wolf corpses were scattered in the desert. Blood flowed into the yellow sand. The chaotic and compact gunshots also covered the silence of the canyon.
Not only that, but there were also many fierce birds hovering in the air. These birds of prey were the Blood-Beak Vultures. When they encountered prey, they would throw sharp feathers with a metallic luster. They could even make a sharp whistling sound in the air, making it impossible to guard against.
According to Talon, the wound after being pricked by these feathers would quickly become red and swollen and fester. Obviously, the feathers were poisonous.
Fortunately, there was a simple fortress made of stones and vehicles in front of them. This was the temporary base that Rhett and his men had set up. The two all-terrain vehicles from before were also parked outside the fortress. It was obvious that the team led by Deacon had arrived early. The front of the fortress was littered with the corpses of Mount Wolves.
This place was about two kilometers away from where Kenny and the others were trapped. Because there was already a hillside full of rocks in front of them, the all-terrain vehicle could not drive up. They could only walk. However, they could not get past it no matter how many times they tried.
Talon honked at the fortress. The people in the fortress cheered. Rhett also showed up to welcome them, but when he walked, he frequently raised his head. Obviously, he was on guard against attacks from the sky.
At this time, Rhett had no time to exchange pleasantries. He looked at Goliath in the trailer behind and said in surprise,
"Did you really repair this thing?"
Talon immediately said,
"It's all thanks to Morris and Spanner. How's the situation now?"
Rhett exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and said,
"I can only use one word to describe it: terrible! These damn wolves and the Blood-Beak Vultures cooperate very well. When we charge, we always have to be careful of attacks from the sky. But it's different with Goliath. "
Talon replied.
"I'm ready. It's time to send these damned monsters to hell!"
After saying that, Talon went to the trailer and activated the mechanical giant Gloria. Many people whistled at Goliath with excited expressions. Obviously, they had suffered a lot from the enemy. Now, it was time to let the enemy have a taste of the power of steel machines!
After entering the fortress, Fang Linyan got first-hand information about the battle situation ahead. He couldn't help frowning because he found that the battle situation at this time was worse than he guessed.
Outside the canyon, a pack of large wolves had already sealed off the cave on the slope ahead. Kenny and the others were tenaciously resisting by relying on the terrain advantage. However, from the sparse gunshots in the distance, it could be inferred that Kenny's group had already begun to conserve their ammunition.
The situation on Rhett's side was also not optimistic. The battle had been going on for several hours, especially at the beginning, when the wolves rushed up fearlessly. At that time, everyone was in a killing frenzy. If they didn't want to become wolf dung tomorrow, they could only pour out bullets as fast as possible.
Therefore, although they were not running out of ammunition, they still had to pay attention to consumption. When the corpses appeared and the smell of blood spread, it attracted many predators, namely the Blood-Beak Vultures.
Flocks of Blood-Beak Vultures hovered and flew above the scorching sun, sometimes swooping down. The scene was like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water to catch its prey. Their huge wings reflected huge black shadows in the canyon, making people tremble with fear. The shrill whistles from the sky were like terrifying surround sound that kept repeating.
At this time, Rhett whistled and said,
"Let's set up a trap! Leonard, take ten people and charge out. Let these damned monsters gather together. "
Then, he gestured to Talon, who was piloting the Big-Footed Mech. He pointed at the flock of giant birds hovering above his head and said,
"Let's take care of them first. These guys are very smart. After suffering once, they will definitely learn their lesson and not gather together. So, we only have one good chance. Hit them accurately."
Talon replied loudly.
"Yes, Boss!"
Leonard, who was named, immediately reorganized his team and quickly attacked. He fired fiercely at the few wolves in front of him. Under the sudden attack, several of the wolves were killed or injured. They could only run away while howling in pain.
The sound of gunshots and the spreading smell of blood immediately stimulated a large number of Blood-Beak Vultures to gather in this direction. It looked like a black cloud was gathering.
At this time, Gloria, under Talon's control, could be seen taking two steps forward slowly. The two shoulder covers slid down to reveal the dark launch ports. Then, it began to lock onto the radar.
Immediately afterward, the best angle of attack was automatically calculated by the "Canon Booster". A total of four "Hellfire" surface-to-air missiles were ejected out of the warehouse.
Each missile dragged a short and hot flame, flying to different airspaces, and then detonating one after another. In an instant, it covered thousands of cubic meters of airspace, completely forming a saturated attack!!
In just a few seconds, a large area of airspace was completely covered by terrifying flames! Such a high-altitude bombardment turned at least 20 Blood-Beak Vultures into charcoal. They fell like hailstones while emitting smoke, smashing heavily to the ground.
The anti-air bombardment worked. For a time, those Blood-Beak Vultures flew away from the human camp. The threat from the air was finally reduced a lot.
The violent explosion also frightened the wolves. They looked at the terrifying flames in the sky that had not dissipated. They didn't know what was going on. Their eyes were full of fear, and then they began to flee directly.
However, Fang Linyan observed that although these panicked wolves fled in fright, after a few hundred meters away, they began to gather in groups of twos and threes.
Fang Linyan immediately used the telescope next to him to observe and found that there were alpha wolves among those gathered wolves! Needless to say, they were all elite creatures.
Not only that, in the center of the wolf pack, there were still more than a dozen wolves gathered together. Among them, there was a larger wolf squatting. Its bloody mouth could probably swallow the entire living person.
There was a terrifying flesh-red scar on the forehead of this wolf. There was no hair on it. It was extremely obvious. No one knew how it survived from such an injury.
Wolf pack was actually not much different from ordinary wolves. Its organizational structure also followed the natural law of the weak being prey to the strong. The most powerful individual would often be elected as the leader of the tribe. Needless to say, this guy must be their wolf king.
From the bad situation of Kenny's team being tightly besieged, it could be seen that this wolf was by no means ordinary. It had probably evolved to have amazing intelligence. Seeing it squatting in the position surrounded by wolves, it still looked around covetously. It didn't seem to have the slightest intention of retreating.
At this time, Vulture said in the team channel,
"No wonder these wolves still refuse to retreat under the attack of human weapons. It turns out that there is a leader creature."
Fang Linyan said,
"Are you talking about the one in the west?"
Vulture said in amazement,
"No no no, I'm talking about the leader of the bloody beak vulture in the sky … West? Damn, it turns out that wolf pack also has a leader creature! "
Fang Linyan said,
"The bloody beak vulture actually has a leader creature?"
Under the guidance of Vulture, Fang Linyan also discovered this bloody beak vulture leader that flew very fast. This guy was even smaller than the ordinary bloody beak vulture, but it flew very fast. It would often peck at the same kind next to it. It was very ferocious.
"Eh, what's on the chest of this giant wolf? It seems to be a necklace? "
At this time, Vulture suddenly said.
Fang Linyan and Goat looked over at the same time, but at this time, Wolf King had already mixed into the pack of wolves. It took a lot of effort to see that there was a string of vines hanging around this guy's neck, and there was an accessory that looked like a dog tag hanging on it.
This suddenly made the 2 of them puzzled in their hearts. Wolf King can't hang a necklace on himself, right? It shouldn't be able to do this with its aesthetic sense. What's more, unless this guy becomes a werewolf, otherwise, how can it do this?
Just when the group of people were chatting, Rhett seized the opportunity to severely injure the bloody beak vulture, roared, and ordered to charge.
Gloria's mech led the way in front, and the marines began to move forward quickly in a fan-shaped formation. Fang Linyan and the other two also picked up the standard electromagnetic rifle and walked in the team.
It was because Gloria's mecha had dealt a heavy blow to the Bloodbeak Vultures, and she had used a method that these beasts couldn't understand. Thus, the Bloodbeak Vultures were forced to flee whenever they saw her.
In this case, even if the wolves bared their teeth and surrounded their team, without the cooperation of the bloody beak vulture in the air, they were in big trouble.
The wolves that dared to block in front were all shot by the electromagnetic rifles! They screamed and fled one after another, but most of them were only injured. The wolves that were hindered could even get help from their companions. By relying on their passive ability of "licking wounds", they could quickly recover their combat power.
About after the rescue team advanced for more than a hundred meters, the wolves probably noticed their real intention. They began to become restless and a little anxious. Wolf King obviously didn't want to see the prey that it had painstakingly surrounded for so long escape at this time.
So it let out a wolf howl. Suddenly, at least dozens of wolves roared and rushed toward this side.
It was just that at this time, Rhett had already given the order. Their biggest reliance on this trip, the Goliath mech, immediately raised its hand. The armor on its shoulder opened, revealing a shoulder-mounted electromagnetic cannon.
At this time, it was considered to be in ground-based mode. Because when it used the cannon, the shoulder covers could not be opened, so it lost its anti-air capability. Unfortunately, the bloody beak vultures didn't know this.
Immediately afterward, the two "Metal Storm" electromagnetic railguns on Gloria's wrists began to fire wildly. The muzzle flame was more than a meter long, and a dense barrage of bullets swept across the barren battlefield, mercilessly sweeping away the wolves that were pouncing forward.
The power of the "Metal Storm" installed on Gloria's mech was not so easy to withstand. Immediately, the bodies of several wolves were directly torn apart by the metal storm!
However, the smell of blood in the air made the remaining wolves even more bloodthirsty. Instead of retreating, they charged forward. The pilot, Talon, sneered and pressed a button next to him.
The cannon on Gloria's shoulder immediately began to rotate slowly. She aimed carefully!
Immediately after, a special artillery shell was shot out and landed in the middle of the pack of wolves. Immediately, with the landing point as the core, a large area of flames rose with a bang, covering an area of about 30 to 40 square meters.
The wolves that were ignited in the sea of fire jumped out one after another, howling and rolling in pain. However, the flames on their bodies were still stubbornly burning them! This was the power of the special cannonball, the napalm.
The cannonball was filled with a gel made of gasoline and other chemicals. After the explosion, it formed a layer of flame that sputtered in all directions, emitting a high temperature of about 1000 ° C. It could stick to other objects and burn for a long time.
The special cannonball fired by Gloria could even attack targets in the water because it contained active metals such as calcium, strontium, barium and so on. In this way, the hydrogen gas released by the reaction of the metals and water would ignite, so it could burn the target alive even if it was in the water!
Just three special cannonballs were enough to make these fearless wolves retreat. After all, the fear of fire was deeply engraved in their primitive instincts.
In this case, there was nothing that could stop the convergence of the 2 teams.
Not long after, Kenny and his team withdrew from the cave with the wounded on their backs under the firepower of the reinforcements. The exoskeleton device that was previously allocated was still quite useful at this time. It greatly increased the speed of retreat.
At this point, Fang Linyan and others saw Kenny's team.
After the two sides met up, the situation of Kenny's party was quite bad. Not to mention the wounded, many of them had left in a hurry and were showing symptoms of dehydration. Therefore, although they knew it was inappropriate, they could only choose to retreat into the relatively safe cave, leaving some time for Kenny's party to eat and drink. At the same time, they gave the wounded some time to bandage and give simple treatment.
After about forty minutes, the group of people began to leave the cave and slowly retreated.
They did not encounter any problems during the initial retreat.
But after leaving the cave for 500 to 600 meters, it was difficult to return. Under the suppression of the wolf king, the wolves began to attack in small groups, and each wolf was scattered.
Not only that, at this time, it was a hillside terrain, not an endless plain. There were rocks and other things everywhere that obstructed the view.
Although Gloria's fighter could provide powerful firepower suppression, it did not have unlimited ammunition. Therefore, the team's movement speed was obviously slower, and the gunshots had become sparse. Obviously, there was a shortage of ammunition.
But those bloodthirsty wolves did not go far away. Instead, they retreated to a place hundreds of meters away. The wolf king kept pacing back and forth, but from time to time, it would command its people to come forward to test the situation.
When the team was only one kilometer away from the camp established by Rhett again, a sudden change occurred!
"Woo …!"
After many tests, the sharp wolf howl once again echoed in the empty wasteland. Accompanied by the wolf king's howl, the wolves resolutely began a large group counterattack. After regrouping, the wolves were rushing toward the crowd at a rapid speed. The sporadic gunshots made them more bloodthirsty and crazy.
Not only that, the bloody vultures in the air actually linked up with the wolves under the command of their leader and pounced down together.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan said in the team channel, "It seems that we chose to stay in this team.
"It seems like we made the right choice to stay with this group. These wolves and Blood-Beaked Vultures should only be the most basic enemies we have to face. If the difficulty is so high, you can imagine how powerful those damned Hill Giants are."
Goat couldn't help but say angrily,
"Damn it, is SS difficulty so perverted? The wolves and vultures on this planet are almost as strong as the zombies who are not afraid of death. The key is that the leader of the creatures inside even knows the thirty-six stratagems, and even the f * cking air-ground coordination in modern warfare. "
Vulture made a rare joke at this time,
"It's obviously the classic tactic of interstellar, Puppy and Wyvern!"
Yet when he saw that the rescue team was about to face a calamity of annihilation, Kenny's grave and stern face exposed a cold smile. Only when the Wargs were within 20 metres did he decisively wave his hand and said.
"Attack!!"
It turned out that Kenny had already investigated the possible dangers on this planet before coming here. He had a deep understanding of all the creatures that might threaten the rescue team, and he was also very clear about the cunning habits of the wolves. So, he deliberately made the team pretend that they had run out of ammunition just now, in fact, to lure them over for a ruthless attack!
After the two teams joined forces, their combat strength was greatly improved. So, this time, when they suddenly unleashed their firepower, an amazing combat strength instantly erupted.
First, Gloria's powerful anti-air ability once again erupted. This time, she launched a total of eight Hellfire missiles, which directly covered a terrifying area in the sky. In an instant, more than 40 bloody vultures were wiped out.
Not only that, Kenny also used the trump card that he had been holding back all this time. After everyone plugged their ears, he directly threw out four specially made stun grenades!
In an instant, infrasound waves specially made to target the ears of the wolves swept over like a tsunami. The 30 to 40 wolves charging at the front fell to the ground one after another, howling in pain. Blood even flowed out of their ears.
