Chapter 739: Chapter 409: Battle!

The team is assembled.

Thirty armed combat personnel, three players, and Xiao Mo.

Thirty-four people in the combat squad, this is the number of people attacking this time.

At around 2 a.m., when there are not many Terror Devils outside.

The combat squad quickly rushed out of the safe zone. After the defense equipment was reactivated, the team immediately entered the fog under the leadership of the leading player, Gu Qing.

Everyone in the team was tense.

Since various Terror Devils could emerge from the fog at any time, searching for the Jie tribe army was impossible.

Players planned to set up simple traps in the distant houses and have Xiao Mo attract the Jie tribe army.

The most dangerous part was traveling through the fog. Even though there were players guarding the front, middle, and back of the team, they still had to be cautious.

Along the way, they encountered several abnormally shaped Terror Devils.

A two-meter-tall pig-headed man wearing a leather apron, with a big belly but making no sound as he walked.

Blood dripped from the huge pig-killing knife in his hand.

A woman with a mask wandering under a street lamp, although her appearance was unclear. But her figure was hot, giving people a sense of protection under the pale street light. It must be something like a slit-mouthed woman.

And then there was an emotionless driver sitting on a parked bus at the road side.

They were all Terror Devils, but strangely, they did not attack the combat team.

They all left instead.

Perhaps they sensed the danger from the team.

It could also be that the Human Guardian on Li Changhe was too dazzling for those non-human Terror Devils.

Upon sensing danger, they each went their separate ways.

The pig man disappeared around the corner, the masked woman disappeared after a flash of the street lamp, and the bus driver turned off his lights and vanished along with everyone else on the bus.

"It seems that these Terror Devils have some degree of rationality," Gu Qing said, "Don’t mind them. Don’t waste time on the way."

"Yes!" The combat personnel responded in a low voice.

In the middle of the team, Old Zhao was scared to death by those abnormal Terror Devils. He complained, "Why aren’t there any good-looking Terror Devils?"

"What do you want good-looking ones for if they’re all Terror Devils?" Someone countered.

"Given the choice between being bitten to death by a tiger and being drained to death by some demon woman, I’d definitely choose the latter," Old Zhao gritted his teeth. "Damn it, why did I watch that video? Now it’s impossible for me to get involved with a demon girl because the Terror Devil was a tiger."

"Damn, those LSP guys are really invincible," a teammate walking in front of him laughed and scolded.

"Yeah, yeah. Old Zhao, be more serious," Li Changhe also chimed in.

"You’re the one who should be serious around your old father-in-law," Old Zhao whispered and complained. You’re the least serious of all.

As Li Changhe walked beside Xiao Mo, he was constantly nagged by him.

Xiao Mo insisted that Li Changhe shouldn’t have come out and should have just stayed in the safe zone to wait for the squad to complete the task.

Li Changhe glanced at his own panel.

Finally, it’s almost done.

He didn’t know what skills he could acquire or which ones he could strengthen.

Sequential genes are mysterious. Li Changhe had seen players complaining about them in the [forum].

They said that players from the same organization, using the same sequential gene, would get different results.

Some players wanted to acquire the ability to fly and specifically bought expensive Fantasy Species sequential genes.

But after using them, they couldn’t fly.

He didn’t know if he’d be able to get a soldier weapon enhancement skill.

As he thought about it, the squad had already been moving through the fog for more than ten minutes.

Suddenly, Gu Qing raised his hand to signal the team to stop moving forward.

He had already felt the vibrations coming from the ground. This was to be expected.

The team specifically took the less congested roads to wait for the enemy to come to them.

"The enemy is coming, hide as planned," Gu Qing said. "They are Terror Devils. They will eat people. Just aim and shoot. There’s no need to panic! We have you covered!"

"Yes!"

"Very good." Gu Qing immediately began to make arrangements.

There were many abandoned vehicles nearby. These vehicles were forcibly abandoned when the disaster fog began.

They also became the best cover for the squad.

Li Changhe and Old Zhao found an off-road vehicle, held their guns and leaned on the side.

Xiao Mo, on the other hand, was covered by a transparent bulletproof cover just five meters away from Li Changhe.

Gu Qing hid behind the cover.

Old Zhao’s heart was still a little nervous, relying on deep breaths to calm himself down.

Meanwhile, Li Changhe was calculating how many people were in this army with the sound of the vibrations and how long they would be enough for the people in the safe zone to eat.

Soon, a few minutes after the squad had hidden, the trembling on the ground grew closer.

From a distance on the street came the sound of strange cries and the screams of girls.

"Why are there girls?"

Everyone’s faces changed.

Gu Qing immediately took out a telescope.

Li Changhe also squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. Even without using the Magic Eye, his vision was surprisingly good.

Two hundred meters away around the corner, a group of cavalry appeared. They wore leather armor, carried curved swords and curved bows, and sported strange hairstyles.

Riding on tall war horses, they made bizarre noises as they advanced.

They were not moving at full speed, instead alternating between quick and slow.

Because they were carrying ’cargo’ behind them.

A dozen ragged women were tied by their wrists with thick ropes and dragged behind the war horses.

From the clothes of those women, they were modern human beings!

"How is this possible?" Gu Qing’s face changed. There was no breach in the safe zone! How could they have captured them?

The cavalry drove the women to the front of the team, threatening them to run in the direction of the squad.

Some of the cavalry grabbed a woman to shield themselves and approached as well.

Using hostages to scout the way, these Terror Devils had intelligence! They even knew how to counter firearms!

At this moment, an exceptionally handsome and tall war horse emerged from around the corner.

It was so huge that it looked like a giant beast. It carried two people on its back.

One was a bald man with muscles as strong as a gorilla. He wore a leather armor, covered in fur, and carried an iron bow on his back.

In his hand, he held a beautiful woman with fair skin. The woman was screaming in terror, and most of her clothes had been torn apart.

He seemed to see the hidden combat team and grinned at the distant trap. Then he opened his big mouth and bit the woman’s white shoulder.

No ’crack’ sound came, but everyone heard it in their minds.

The woman’s screams pierced the night.

The next second, using the women as shields, the cavalry charged towards Xiao Mo’s position.

None of the combat team members fired their guns; instead, they all picked up their close-combat weapons with fierce faces.

"Combat team, fall back! All players, get your asses up!" Gu Qing’s roar, his veins bulging, even drowned out the sound of hooves like thunder.

"Kill them all!"
