After taking three LV 1 Shenli Dan and two Primordial Spirit Pills, Xia Pingan's divine energy increased by 70 points. The divine energy that he had just consumed was directly recovered to 90 points.
Before he went out, he had 89 points of Divine Power. Now that he went out, not only did he fully recover his Divine Power, but he also had an extra point. There were two more farm women who could work in the secret mandala. He also had 10 more rune bullets and 25 Body Strengthening Pills. These extra things were a profit.
During the daytime, everyone carefully hid in the house of the Special Logistics Office. Nobody went out. Even Xia Pingan stopped.
If they provoked demon rats and huge spiders during the daytime, they would easily attract a lot of demon rats and spiders. Therefore, they had better rest during the daytime.
It was very dangerous outside.
None of them went out, but within a kilometer of the logistics department, they had experienced two dangers that were neither too big nor too small during the day.
The first one was at noon. Three demon rats approached the end of the runway of the Special Logistics Office. After wandering on the grassland for a while, they saw the desolate look of the base. After wandering outside the runway for more than 10 minutes, they tore a big hole in the steel wire fence between the runway and the grassland. One demon rat even circled around the runway. Finally, the other three demon rats drilled into the woods and left.
The appearance of the three demon rats scared the two soldiers who were on guard outside so much that they broke out in cold sweat.
Xia Pingan saw it with his remote vision and was ready to launch an attack at any time.
After the three demon rats left, it was past 2 pm. At that time, a demon fire spider and a shadow monster's demon soul appeared on the road near the base. They were less than 400 meters away from the base.
There was also a small town, a water plant, and some buildings near the base of the Special Logistics Department. The buildings in the base were not very conspicuous. The Demon Fire Spider and the Phantom Monster's Demon Spirit did not seem to want to come here for a stroll. Instead, they went to the small town nearby.
Finally, it was dark outside.
Dark clouds covered the moon tonight, and visibility was very low after dark.
The soldiers who were preparing to leave had eaten and drank their fill. They also had a lot of food and ammunition on their bodies and wore night vision goggles on their heads. When Xia Pingan confirmed that there were no monsters around, the 107th Mechanized Infantry Company Commander Wu Guolin led the soldiers and the refugees out of the base quietly.
They didn't dare to take the main road. The main road was the evacuation route for the 87th Legion and the citizens of Xinchuan. The chances of encountering monsters along the way were too high. Therefore, they took the small path by the river towards the wilderness. Although it wasn't easy to walk, the chances of encountering monsters were lower.
There was another advantage to walking along the river. If they encountered Demon Fire Spiders or Demon Liquid Spiders, they could jump into the river. It was also a way to survive.
The Magic Fire Spider was afraid of water, and the Magic Liquid Spider was not afraid of water. However, its attack could be diluted and blocked by the river water. The threat of the Magic Rat jumping into the water would also be greatly reduced. It was not much more agile than a human.
Of course, the soldiers who left already carried two rocket launchers with them. They had a total of ten rockets. Even if they encountered Demon Fire Spiders, they would still be able to fight.
The people who left all carried life jackets that they found in the special department. These life jackets could prevent them from drowning if they fell into the water.
When they were leaving, Xia Pingan consumed 10 points of divine power and summoned an elite slave soldier under the surprised gazes of the people who left.
With this, Xia Pingan only had 80 points of divine power left.
"This is the slave soldier I summoned. If you encounter Demon Spirits and a small number of Magic Rats, you can deal with them. This slave soldier will escort you for six hours. If you encounter Demon Fire Spiders, it will cover your escape and create an opportunity for you to attack …"
Six hours was enough for the people who left to leave the most dangerous area of Xinchuan City.
The people who stayed had their reasons to stay, and the people who left also had their reasons to leave. There was no right or wrong, only different choices.
As for the rest, their fates were up to the heavens.
The few citizens who were preparing to leave thanked Xia Pingan profusely.
Wu Guolin led all the soldiers to solemnly salute Xia Pingan. Then, he led the soldiers to escort the citizens away. Soon, the group disappeared into the distant woods.
Seeing those people leave, Xia Pingan withdrew his gaze and handed the five 14.5mm armor-piercing incendiary bombs and a bottle to Manzijin.
Manzijin took the two things and looked at them in confusion, "This is …"
The 14.5mm armor-piercing incendiary bombs didn't look much different from ordinary armor-piercing incendiary bombs, except that the bullet head had a mysterious pattern that others couldn't understand. As for the bottle that Xia Pingan handed to Manzijin, it was a clean condiment bottle that Xia Pingan had found in the kitchen. The condiment bottle contained ten Body Strengthening Pills.
Xia Pingan didn't have anything else to store the pills in. He couldn't hold the pills in his hand, so he could only put them in this simple bottle. It was no wonder that Manzijin couldn't recognize it.
"Those five bullets are now rune bullets. One bullet can kill a phantom monster, demon spirit, or demon rat. The condiment bottle contains Body Strengthening Pills. One Body Strengthening Pill can increase your qi, blood, and physique without any side effects. However, you can't take too many Body Strengthening Pills. You can only take one in 24 hours!"
Manzijin held the five bullets tightly and looked at them carefully. Finally, she put them away carefully. She had heard of rune bullets before. Many summoners didn't even have them. She didn't expect that Xia Pingan would give her five at once.
According to legend, only summoners who had mastered hieroglyphs could make rune bullets. Even among summoners, rune bullets were considered a luxury item.
Thinking that one rune bullet could kill a demon spirit, Manzijin's blood boiled. Her eyes flashed with a strong killing intent. That night, if they hadn't encountered a phantom monster's demon spirit, her comrades wouldn't have died so miserably.
Only those who had fought with a Demon Spirit would know how desperate it was to fight against a Demon Spirit with ordinary weapons. These rune bullets were the nemesis of Demon Spirits.
Manzijin didn't even think about the Body Strengthening Pills in the condiment bottle. She opened the bottle and poured out a bullet and swallowed it.
Less than half a minute after swallowing the pill, Manzijin's face became rosy. Then, sweat appeared on her forehead. The blood vessels and meridians on the back of her hand were squirming like earthworms. It seemed that there was a wave of energy passing through her blood vessels and meridians.
After a full two minutes, Manzijin's face returned to normal.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I feel very good!" Manzijin licked her lips.
"Well, now I'll tell you what we're going to do tonight. Put on the night vision goggles first …"
Seeing that Manzijin had returned to normal, Xia Pingan took out a map of Xinchuan City. He spread it out on the grass in front of them and began to explain. Manzijin quickly put on the military night vision goggles on her helmet and listened to Xia Pingan's explanation carefully.
"We're now in this area, the suburbs in the southeast of Xinchuan City …" Xia Pingan pointed to an area on the map. "In the future, we'll be based in the Special Logistics Department. We'll need to return here often to replenish our equipment, eat, or rest. Therefore, in line with the principle that rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows, our operation area will first exclude the area within three kilometers of the Special Logistics Department. We'll need to use guerrilla warfare to look for targets in other directions of Xinchuan City …"
Manzijin nodded. There was nothing wrong with Xia Pingan's arrangement.
"Our early targets are mainly the lone Demon Fire Spiders or Demon Liquid Spiders near the outskirts of Xinchuan City, as well as no more than four Demon Rats. I'll be responsible for finding the target and commanding the operation, while you'll be responsible for attacking the target with your sniper rifle from 1500 meters away and attracting the target. I'll be responsible for ambushing the target along the way. We'll use walkie-talkies to communicate, and after you shoot, you can retreat from the safe route. If you find the Demon Spirit of a phantom monster or if you need to protect yourself, you can use rune bullets.
Do you understand? "" Understood. To put it simply, I'll be responsible for attracting the monsters while you'll be responsible for ambushing them. We'll use guerrilla warfare tactics and change locations after each shot! "
"That's it. Is there a problem?"
"Sir, how can you determine our target?"
"I have the ability to see from afar. I can lock onto them from a distance!"
Manzijin was stunned. She then took a deep breath. "I have no problem. As long as we can kill those monsters, I'll listen to all the arrangements!"
"Well, let's move. I've already found the targets. A Magic Spirit and a Magic Fire Spider …"
"The two during the day?"
"Yes, the two during the day. I've been keeping an eye on them. They didn't go too far. They're about 5000 meters away from here …"
Xia Pingan led the way while Manzijin carried her sniper rifle and followed Xia Pingan. The two ran toward the west.
More than ten minutes later, the two separated. Manzijin followed Xia Pingan's instructions and ran to the roof of a residential building. She found a sniper's position and began to search for the targets.
After a while, Xia Pingan's voice came from Manzijin's military walkie-talkie.
"The two targets are about 1300 meters to your right at 2 o 'clock. There's an eight-story building over there. There's a beverage billboard on the upper floor facing you. The Magic Fire Spider is on the roadside under the billboard. You can see the Magic Spirit of the Phantom Monster 20 meters to the southeast of the Magic Fire Spider. Have you found the targets?"
Manzijin quickly found the targets in the light green scope of the sniper rifle.
The Magic Fire Spider was lying on the roadside, devouring a pet dog. The Magic Spirit of the Phantom Monster was like a maggot floating in the air, wriggling under a tree.
"Found the targets!" Manzijin replied through the walkie-talkie.
"You have two chances to fire. The first shot can be used to kill the Magic Spirit with a rune bullet. The second shot can be used to shoot the Magic Fire Spider. You can decide when to fire. The Magic Fire Spider has a strong sense of direction. As long as you hit it, it can roughly determine where the bullet came from. So after you fire two shots, immediately retreat. If you encounter other monsters along the way, try to avoid them as much as possible.
"Understood!" Manzijin quickly calmed down. She loaded a rune sniper bullet in the gun and locked onto the Magic Spirit through the scope.
After eating the Body Strengthening Pill, Manzijin found that her current state was unprecedentedly good.
After silently counting two breaths, Thor's scope had automatically calculated and corrected the bullet's trajectory.
"Bang …" A muffled sound was heard in the silent night. Thor's huge recoil made Manzijin's body, which was lying on the roof, shake.
The scene that came through the scope was exciting.
Manzijin saw the Magic Spirit of the Phantom Monster he was aiming at. In the blink of an eye, it was like a lit candle, burning fiercely.
The bullet he fired passed through the Magic Fire Spider's somewhat illusory body and hit the tree behind the Magic Fire Spider. However, the rune flame on the bullet was automatically triggered the moment it passed through the Magic Fire Spider's body. It suddenly burned.
In the blink of an eye, the Magic Fire Spider only struggled twice in the flames before it turned into ashes.
He finally killed a Magic Fire Spider's Magic Spirit.
Manzijin was so excited that he almost shed tears. This was the first Magic Fire Spider's Magic Spirit that he killed. The rune bullet was really powerful. For a Magic Fire Spider's Magic Spirit, it was really a one-shot kill.
The Magic Fire Spider was alarmed. Manzijin's second shot was an ordinary anti-material bullet, and it hit the Magic Fire Spider's head.
Seeing that the Magic Fire Spider immediately sensed his location and rushed towards him, Manzijin immediately got up, picked up the sniper rifle, and quickly left the place.
When the Demon Fire Spider had just rushed out 300-400 meters and turned around from the back of a building, a small and cute Black Tortoise had already flown over. As if it had been waiting for it, the Black Tortoise bit the Demon Fire Spider.
The Magic Fire Spider couldn't resist at all. The flames on its body and the light in its eyes were instantly extinguished, and its body was covered in a layer of snow white frost.
Xia Pingan rushed out from behind a nearby building and took the Magic Fire Spider into his secret mandala. Then, before the other demons arrived, he quickly retreated and met up with Manzijin.
With one more person luring the Magic Fire Spider, Xia Pingan could more easily choose the battlefield and ambush point he wanted. Once he succeeded, he could calmly retreat. Just like a chivalrous hero, his efficiency was higher and he was incomparably cool.
The Devil Fire Spider that had once chased Xia Pingan to the point of jumping off a cliff was as weak as a bubble in front of the somewhat cute Black Tortoise. It burst with a needle. Sure enough, there was always something to subdue it.
Xia Pingan had used up one Rune Bullet and 36 Divine Power to kill a Phantom Monster's Demon Spirit and a Demon Fire Spider, earning 60 Divine Power. Xia Pingan had won his first battle!
Half an hour later, Xia Pingan and Manzijin met up at a rendezvous point.
The place where the two of them had killed the Magic Fire Spider and the Magic Fire Spider suddenly had seven or eight large spiders and more than twenty demon rats. Three Magic Fire Spider's Magic Fire Spider were scurrying around.
After the two of them rested for a while, Xia Pingan locked onto another target ten kilometers away.
That target was simple. It was only a single Magic Fire Spider.
… …
An hour later, another gunshot rang out … …
Xia Pingan calmly took the Magic Fire Spider's corpse into his secret mandala, and then returned to the base with Manzijin.
Manzijin wanted to continue, but Xia Pingan didn't have much divine power left. He had less than ten points. He had to wait for Shenli Dan to come out before he could continue to summon Xuanwu.
The two of them rested in the base during the day and came out again at night.
