Become a legend in the interstellar

Chapter 435 Rescue
Here is the north-central area of ​​the northern plain, a land covered with snow.

The perennial cold makes the life here seem very monotonous, just like the snow-white that stretches from the sky to the ground, there is dead silence and coldness everywhere.

Looking around, there are only arbors with gray-white bark that are tenaciously rooted in this land. Most of them are seven or eight meters or more than ten meters high, with tall and straight trunks. Under the rendering of white snow, even their leaves and The branches are all white.

Birch, a very common tree.

Because of a song, Su Xia remembered the name of this tree.

In this birch forest, there is a small northern city that has been abandoned for a long time. The years have cast a dilapidated color on this city. The city is empty, as if no one has ever lived here.

However, today, a small-scale contact battle took place in this small city far away from human habitation.

"boom!"

A brass-colored bullet slammed into the cement exterior wall of a building, stirring up a cloud of gray dust and punching a hole the size of an egg in the dusty wall.

More bullets hit the body of a swift bug below the hole.

"呲-"

The swift worm was in pain, with fierce eyes and fierce expression, pus dripping from the corners of its mouth full of fangs, it already had more than ten bullet holes in its body, each bullet hole was bleeding, and the injuries were serious, but it unexpectedly There is also combat power, and the vitality is shockingly tenacious.

After a frenzied roar, the bug became violent, its limbs exploded with unimaginable strength, it leapt up, and rushed desperately towards the direction the bullet came from.

It was a window on the third floor of a dusty concrete building.

It seemed to want to pounce, jump through the window, and kill the shooter.

However, the bullets shot out of that window one after another, like a long string of metal raindrops, with deadly force, hitting the worm's body hard.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

A rain of bullets came, and one of them hit the bug's left front leg, shattering its bones with a cracking sound, and blood spattered everywhere.

Due to the fracture of the left front leg, the fast-moving insect lost its balance in an instant, fell to the ground suddenly, and rolled more than ten times, leaving a long series of bloodstains on the cold street, and the breath of life dropped a lot.

The worm roared unwillingly, his narrow eyes were full of fierce blood, lying on the ground, staring at the window.

"Hey!"

A bullet hit his head accurately, and a burst of blood exploded, ending his life.

No matter how unwilling it was, the worm could only fall down, and its upturned head fell heavily.

After death, its limbs were still twitching unconsciously, as if it was still alive, and nearly [-] bullet holes were bleeding from all over its body.

Of course, it is impossible to survive.

Its unwilling roar before it died was just to summon more companions to hunt and kill the humans in this city together.

"Zerg..."

In the distant sky, Su Xia watched the scene with calm eyes.

"There are a lot of bugs in this city, and there is probably a bug nest nearby."

Although the distance was still a bit far, with the help of the life perception glasses, Su Xia saw that there were at least 100 low-level Zerg in the entire city, and there were also many bugs in the nearby jungle.

They roared and roared wildly, along the deserted city streets, like a swarm of locusts, at an extremely fast speed, constantly flocking to the place where the gunshots sounded.

At this moment, in this deserted and icy small city, there are more than a dozen gunshot locations.

"More than a dozen shots were fired, all concentrated in a building in the city center." Su Xia looked from afar.

The building was eight stories high. It seemed to be a former office building, and it was also dusty. The roof was covered with a layer of white snow, and the downstairs was also covered with snow nearly half a meter deep.

The window where the fire was fired just now is located on the third floor on the north side of the building.

On the southeast, northwest, and four sides of the building, there are three or four firing windows, constantly killing the bugs that surround them from all directions.

Gunshots continued, windows spewed flames, and bugs fell under the rain of bullets.

"Oh, damn it, why are there so many bugs?" A young man's complaint came from the window just now, mixed with the sound of bullets being loaded and the howling of cold wind, it sounded a bit vague.

"Haha, little Peter, are you scared?" Another voice sounded from the window, it was a middle-aged man, a little rough.

"I'm not afraid, I killed one just now!"

The young man snorted and showed off his achievements, but then he complained: "The gun in my hand has not been properly maintained. It got stuck just now. After I go back, I will change to a better one."

As soon as the words fell, a brass-colored bullet spun out of the chamber, hit the brain of another bug with a bang, and burst out a stream of plasma.

The young man's hit rate is improving, as if he has adapted to the gun in his hand, and he has also calculated the current wind speed and direction.

"Hey, it's another one!" the young man groaned, "Little Maria will be proud of me when I go back. I will use the fangs of the bug just now as a gift, and propose to her."

"Little Maria likes the handsome and strong Alexander. My poor little Peter, you are too thin and not strong enough to stand a chance." The middle-aged man said sympathetically.

"Hmph, little Maria likes warriors, and I am a warrior too!"

The young man ignored the middle-aged man's words, loaded the bullet, and fired another round, which accurately hit a bug that was about to pounce.

On the side, the middle-aged man was also shooting, repelling the approaching bugs.

Although their words were relatively relaxed, their faces became more and more serious, because in their field of vision, the number of bugs appeared was increasing, and it seemed that they couldn't kill them all.

Not only their direction, but people in the other three directions of the building were also facing more and more bugs, and the gunshots became more urgent.

"Boom! Boom!"

Bugs roared and fell down one after another, struggling unwillingly, roaring wildly, leaving blood and mucus everywhere.

Once the speed of killing cannot keep up with the speed of the bugs, the building may fall, and all of them will become a delicious meal for the bugs.

"Damn it, how many bugs are there?"

This is a brutal defensive battle, with far more attackers than defenders.

The madness of the offensive side far exceeds that of the defensive side.

……

In the distance, in the sky outside the city, Su Xia looked calm, did not make a move, and kept observing the situation of both sides.

He just sent some nanites over there so he could get more information.

"In the building, there are a total of 28 people. They all speak the language of the northern plains. They should have lived here all year round. Everyone's marksmanship is good, not ordinary people.

"The firearms they use are not the standard firearms of the human surrender camp, nor are they ordinary small workshop products, but products decades ago, before the era of spiritual energy.

"They don't have uniform clothing. There are a few young people who are thin and seem to have experienced malnutrition. If they are in the surrender camp of the mechanical race, they won't be hungry..."

Su Xia was observing and thinking at the same time, her vigilance was always high.

I don't know if it's because the distance is too far, the system has not popped up a prompt, even if he saw the sharing screen of the nanorobot, there was no prompt content.

In the city center, in the building, there are many old army green ammunition boxes and weapon boxes, some of which have production dates and serial numbers printed on them.

Su Xia took a look, and found that the production date of a box was 70 years ago.

"A batch of old munitions, all marked in the northern language." Su Xia pondered, "They should have found them from this city, and they are military supplies buried underground in this city."

These people don't seem to belong to the surrender camp, but like a rebel organization.

The human soldiers who surrendered to the camp all had uniform uniforms and standard weapons, so they would not use these old firearms.

"In addition to military supplies, there are also some cans, which are decades old, and they may have found them from the underground air-raid shelter." Su Xia looked at the shared screen, "But there are no fresh living supplies, and no traces of human life. It means that they don't live in this abandoned city, they just come here to look for supplies, maybe they know there are supplies here, or they may come to try their luck..."

These people don't know whether to say good luck or bad luck. Although they found supplies in this abandoned city, they were surrounded by Zerg.

In the jungle around the city, Zerg creatures sprang out everywhere, and the number was nearly a thousand.

And there are already five or six hundred low-level bugs on the streets of the city.

"Chhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Their roaring sounds were connected together, with viciousness and cruelty in their voices, and each of them ran frantically towards the building in the center of the city, as if they didn't know what death was at all, and the ones in front rushed forward after they died.

Around the building, there were more than a hundred broken bug corpses, and the white snow was stained dark green with blood.

The cold wind howled, and the stench of blood wafted in the wind.

In the building, the faces of the 28 people were not very good-looking. Some people frowned tightly, while others looked worried, changing ammunition in a depressing atmosphere.

Everyone knows that if this continues, the bugs outside will break through their defense line sooner or later.

Stick to the end only death.

In the face of a large number of bugs, breaking through is also death, and may die faster.

No matter how you look at it, waiting for the final result of everyone is death.

"There are more and more bugs. There should be a low-level or even mid-level bug nest in this area." A middle-aged man wearing glasses said.

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let everyone come together. I didn't do a good job in scouting." A man about 30 years old blamed himself.

"Don't blame you, these nasty bugs are too weird to appear," another said.

"Yes, I have scouted before, and I didn't see any bugs at all."

"Oh, little Peter still wants to go back and propose to little Maria."

"Haha, little Peter hasn't given up yet?"

"..."

Everyone's eyes were focused on the thin young man, and they all made fun of a few words, making the atmosphere a little more relaxed.

However, this relief is short-lived after all.

"If it really doesn't work, just retreat to the underground passage. The bottom leads in all directions, and you should be able to guard for a while, as long as you guard the entrance."

"Unfortunately, the other exits of the underground passage have collapsed, leaving only the entrance and exit deep in the basement of this building, otherwise we can leave through other exits."

"Perhaps, we can use explosives to turn those blocked exits..."

"careful!"

"Little Peter!"

Suddenly someone roared, and his face changed drastically.

A bug entered the building at some point, like a silent assassin, and unexpectedly came to the third floor where they were located.

At this moment, the bug was at the top of the stairs, less than ten meters away from the young man named Peter.

"呲呲-"

It had a fierce look in its eyes, opened its fangs, and rushed towards it.

This short distance only takes an instant for a swift worm, which is extremely explosive and fast.

"Little Peter!"

"Get out of the way!"

Everyone's face changed, they looked anxious, and shouted hoarsely, but it seemed that it was too late.

"what?"

Little Peter turned his head and saw the rushing insect, but his muzzle was still pointed out of the window, a trace of panic flashed across his thin face, his whole body froze, and there was no time to do anything.

Is he going to die here today?

He panicked and closed his eyes subconsciously, not daring to look directly at his own death, and only hoped that the process of death would not be too painful.

"Dear Maria, you like the wind in spring. After I die, I will turn into a soft wind to protect you..."

As he thought this way, a gentle and beautiful girl's face flashed in his mind.

But at this moment, there was a sudden click, as if something hard had been forcibly cut open, followed by a crazy roar.

Little Peter was very familiar with this roar, it was the unwillingness of the worm before it died.

What happened?

Little Peter found that death and pain did not come to him, but chose the bug that rushed to him.

"I'm not dead?"

He opened his eyes and touched his cheeks and body in surprise. It was still familiar, and there was no part missing.

On his clothes, there was some warm blood, which did not belong to him, but belonged to the bug.

The worm had been torn apart, as if it had been cut by some kind of sharp tool, its torso was broken, its limbs were separated, and the section was extremely smooth and flat, as if it had been cut by a machine.

"I was rescued, and the person who saved me was..."

The joy of being alive after the catastrophe made little Peter's body tremble slightly. He looked around and found that the rest of the people looked shocked.

They were stunned, and they all froze in place, as if they had seen something incredible.

Little Peter looked at the split bug corpse in front of him again.

He knew very well that his team friends didn't have the ability to directly cut bugs open.

"What are you doing?"

A strange voice suddenly sounded outside a certain window, attracting everyone's attention.

They all turned their heads and looked at the window.

Through the broken glass, they saw that it was a man in a black robe, with no expression on his face and calm eyes.

At this moment, everyone was stunned for a moment, and Qiqi thought of a name.

Or rather, a code name...
