Chapter 882 881. Three-Day Miracle·The First Day
The dust that was thrown up after the bombs of the dog-headed artificial soldiers exploded seemed to have the smell of gunpowder smoke. Of course, it was also filled with the smell of blood, but for the soldiers who were already feeling tired, this was the easiest place to be killed on the battlefield.
Ignore the taste.
At least that's the case for Lieutenant Mia.
As a veteran who participated in the Battle of Shadow Valley, this young Jaeger Lieutenant is now a rising star in the People's Army. Her shooting skills, which she learned under "Sniper Master" Qu Ge, are very popular in the current army.
Definitely one of the top five, and this excellent huntress also personally foiled the old Jackal Manson's plot to send Murphy away with the Astral Rip.
Regardless of her professionalism or qualifications, she is the kind of "potential stock" that General Maxim will keep in mind. This is evident from Mia's rocket-like promotion from sergeant to lieutenant in just two months.
You can tell by the speed of promotion.
But in a huge war system like the Maginot Line, no matter you are a potential new star or a newly enlisted soldier, you have to obey the orders and enter your own position and persist there until the next order comes.
This is of course what the Lieutenant Chasseur is doing at this time.
Right in the front and center of the position guarded by Lord Murphy himself, she and her Jaeger platoon occupied an undulating high point and were constantly moving at several sniper positions in order to achieve maximum results.
Now that the Blood Eagle Claw rifles have been distributed to the people's army soldiers, firepower is no longer a problem that troubles the Transians. Although these automatic rifles have many shortcomings, using them to deal with a large number of armed kobolds is a problem.
Every beat made no sound.
However, the biggest problem with this thing is that it is difficult to kill the jackals with strong vitality in one hit.
Especially for jackals in a violent state, even if they are hit in the head or heart, it is difficult to kill them immediately. Therefore, the military order of the Jaegers came into being. As an ancient military unit, they were given the ability to
Special mission.
When the gnolls charge with the kobolds, the hunters must kill the gnolls leading the team as soon as possible to deter the kobolds.
In order to achieve this goal, the firearms used by the hunters are different from ordinary soldiers. In addition to the standard blood vulture claws used to clean up the soldiers, they also have a modified imitation Mosin Nagant that fires burning gold.
The ammunition is more accurate, has stronger penetrating power, and is specially used for hunting gnolls.
Marksmen like Lieutenant Mia are also equipped with a very special "Troll Hammer" anti-large creature rifle. This bulky thing has been proven many times in previous actual combats that as long as it hits the fatal spot, it can even kill Silver-level people instantly.
The Gnoll.
It's very powerful but has an embarrassing problem: it's too heavy.
There is no way a Jaeger can carry this thing and move quickly during a battle, so Mia has a strong observer to help her carry this big killer.
Mia's Jaeger platoon was deployed on the position when the battle began in the early morning. In just one direction, the number of jackals who died at the hands of more than 30 well-equipped men from early morning to now has exceeded 1
There were more than 1,500 people, and they indirectly caused countless morale collapses among the armed kobolds, which greatly relieved the pressure in the front trench area.
But this also caused the outstanding performance of the Jaeger platoon to be targeted by the Jackal Warlord.
Just now, a group of dog-headed artificial soldiers used the tactics of digging and blasting to bring a large bomb to the moving Jaeger platoon. At the scene of the explosion that was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke, Lieutenant Mia, who was beaten and bleeding, shook her head and got up.
When I arrived, what I saw was a mess.
One-fifth of the Jaegers were wiped out by this ferocious explosion. There were corpses and broken arms around the explosion pit, and the soldiers who survived were all injured. The lieutenant was lucky, at least his hands were still there, and he was still alive.
Can pick up the rifle and continue killing enemies.
Seeing more kobolds rushing out of the underground tunnel, Mia, who was still bleeding, picked up the blood vulture claw on her chest, knelt down and pulled the trigger. The flying hot bullets hit the kobolds who rushed out of the tunnel.
After killing several of them, the remaining ones screamed and shrank back in fear.
These dogs are simply a typical example of "bullying the weak and fearing the strong" when they are not led by jackals.
Seeing the lieutenant suppressing the kobold's attack, Warrant Officer North, who had been with Mia since joining the army, gritted his teeth and rushed over, unbolted the two grenades on his waist and threw them into the kobold's tunnel.
Then he rolled outwards and lay there. After a few seconds, there were two muffled sounds from the ground, and then it became quiet again.
"Quick, help the injured!"
Mia took a breath, covered the wound on her head with the cuffs of her military uniform, and gave orders to her soldiers. The surviving soldiers immediately took action to move the injured who could not move to the side for first aid.
Although there is only a simple bandage and a shot of the refreshing drug made by the alchemists, this can still allow the wounded to persist until they are sent to the rear. First aid is also one of the weekly training subjects for the soldiers of the People's Army, provided by Transia
The famous doctor Mr. Shit Pants Demon personally taught you.
The lieutenant himself bent down and picked up the heavy troll hammer from the explosion crater.
She glanced at her observer's hand. The tall and honest young man was looking at the sky with blank eyes. His lower body was blown to pieces.
"You're out of luck, Mia."
While his old partner North was bandaging his arm, he complained:
"This is your second observer. The last brother who worked with you was killed by a jackal in the swamp. If this continues, no one will dare to be your assistant."
"You are the only one who talks a lot!"
Mia's eyes widened, and she threw the anti-large creature rifle in her hand to North and helped another old partner, Papel, whose left leg was injured.
She looked back at the three wounded soldiers placed behind her who were no longer able to fight, and then at the others. Then she sent out three other hunters and asked them to take the wounded to the medical point in the rear position and collect six boxes of ammunition.
return.
As a result, there were only a dozen people left in the originally thirty-man chasseur platoon. They had not received the order to retreat, and they had to continue fighting.
A few minutes later, the hunters entered hunting mode again.
"boom"
The slight vibration of the sniper rifle in his hand caused the bullet to come out of the barrel, piercing the heart of a jackal who was jumping into the trench with a halberd hundreds of meters away. The unlucky man fell into the trench and was used by the hunters in the trench.
The bayonet cut into pieces, and the kobolds following it were hit by several rounds of bullets until they screamed and turned around and ran away.
Warrant Officer North, who fired the fatal shot, exhaled, pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded a new bullet. While searching for the target, he whispered to Mia, who had set up the Troll Hammer next to him and entered the sniping state:
"This scene reminds me of Shadow Valley. The night we took the tunnel to transfer, the jackals were so crazy. When will these dogs be killed?"
"You can't kill them cleanly."
Warrant Officer Papel on the other side had an injured leg and could only pull the trigger from a prone shooting position. He quickly killed a Jackal hunter who was about to throw explosives, and let the guy turn into a dwarf bomb together with the dwarf bomb in his hand.
ash.
Amidst the sound of bullet shells being ejected, Papel, who was more literary and artistic, whispered:
"I have heard from psionicists that the reproductive capacity of jackals is several times that of ours. We cannot eliminate them all at once. In a few years, these guys will grow back, just like the weeds on the farm.
They said this was the reason why the gnolls kept launching black disasters.
They're growing too much, and there's not enough food in that damn place in the Dark Mountains.
The psionic master said that the tragic black disaster is also a way for the gnolls to adjust their numbers. They call this an 'ecological cycle'."
"Hey, the ecological cycle of ghosts, then why don't these bastards go to the east to cause trouble with the Callum people? After all, they still bully the weak and fear the strong, thinking that we are easier to bully than the Callum people."
North cursed:
"But we are no longer afraid of them. The Transians led by Governor Murphy will definitely charge into the Dark Mountains and completely exterminate these bastards. Mia, nine o'clock! Did you see it? There is a warlord showing up!"
"Shua"
Lieutenant Mia, who was holding a big gun, immediately moved the muzzle of the gun. Under the magnification of the psychic sight that came with the Troll's Hammer, she clearly saw a warg riding on the chaotic battlefield a thousand meters away to observe the battlefield.
The Gnoll Warlord.
The latter was wearing very heavy barbarian armor, and there was a battle flag on the warg. He looked like a big shot at first glance.
This is the favorite prey of Trollhammers and elite hunters.
Lieutenant Mia didn't hesitate. She took a deep breath and held it to make her hand steady. This was the method Master Qu taught her. After a few seconds of fine-tuning, she pulled the trigger.
"boom"
The muffled sound caused by the special hunting bullets when they came out of the chamber made North subconsciously cover his ears. The big gun supported by the tripod also vibrated at this moment. Although there was a muzzle brake to balance the recoil,
The repulsive force of this big gun makes people wonder whether it will break Mia's too thin shoulder.
The lieutenant did not change her posture. She used her psychic sight to observe the target.
After seeing that the bullet she fired accurately hit the roaring mouth of the warlord and tore the opponent's fragile spine apart, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Awesome! Mia."
North praised:
"Now you can have another star on your badge and shotgun."
Well, this is a new habit formed by the hunters in the past few months of fighting. It is said to come from the tradition of the foreigners. Whenever a hunter kills a valuable target, they can wear it on their military insignia and shotgun.
Carve a star on it.
This thing is also very particular.
Ordinary Jackal captains can only engrave hollow five-pointed stars, while elite enemy base commanders can engrave silver five-pointed stars. For example, the silver warlord Mia killed this time is the highest-level gold star. This is basically what ordinary soldiers can get with their equipment bonuses.
The most advanced target to hunt.
And if you snipe independently, you can engrave the legendary bloody gold star without the help of others.
In this way, Lieutenant Mia's Troll Hammer already has three bloody gold stars that ordinary hunters can only obtain in their dreams.
She is called the role model of the Jaegers not just because of her good marksmanship.
"Continue to guide the target!"
Mia did not become proud of the successful hunt. She coldly took out the thumb-thick cartridge and added a new one. North and Papper, who were familiar with Mia's character, knew that this was Mia's extremely angry reaction.
Apparently, it was because the previous attack by the kobolds caused heavy losses to the Jaeger platoon that she entered this "cold-blooded killing" state.
The other soldiers in the Jaeger platoon were highly motivated by the lieutenant's extraordinary performance. They were also simmering with anger and became even more ferocious in the subsequent hunting.
But the Jackals had noticed the trouble this active hunter had brought to them before. With their constant sniping, the quality and quantity of the Jackals and Kobolds could never be perfectly coordinated. Now,
Another warlord was killed, which made the warlord supervising the battle in the rear completely unbearable.
Under its direct order, a hundred-man kobold artificial soldier set off along the previous tunnel under the leadership of a hunting elect. Just when Mia locked the second silver jackal barbarian vanguard, her
Her excellent hunting instinct made her issue a warning, causing Mia to immediately turn the gun and aim behind her.
In the tunnel dug by the kobolds before, more noisy sounds sounded, and the blood-red arc light jumped out, causing the tall and indifferent hunting elect to jump out like a ghost.
When it came out, it looked up and saw the muzzle of the gun aimed at itself. The Troll's Hammer fired from a distance of less than fifteen meters, and the gold-burning bullet with terrifying penetrating power hit the electorate's chest.
Although it has long-range invalid protection from the Lord of Hunting, it is not completely immune to long-range damage. The special sniper bullet did not kill it, but it made it turn over and fall as if it had been hit by a heavy punch.
On the chest.
"Meet the enemy!"
Mia shouted, and the Jaegers immediately picked up the Blood Vulture Claws and fired continuously behind them, suppressing the steady stream of armed kobolds rushing out of the tunnel. The lieutenant had no time to reload the big gun, and she missed it.
With the magazine of the Blood Vulture Claw, he picked up the shotgun, loaded it with a bayonet, and strode forward, piercing the skull of the ugly kobold in front of him with one shot.
But the explosives tied to the latter's paws and body had been ignited, and the fuse burned to the end, causing Mia's pupils to dilate. A figure rushed over from the side and knocked her out.
"boom"
A violent explosion exploded on the spot, engulfing everything around it, followed by explosions one after another. The kobolds' self-destruction was like a wall of fire sweeping across the high ground.
When Lieutenant Mia got up coughing and clutching her chest, the hunter position in front of her had completely gone silent, and the hunter electorate in front of her who had withstood the huge explosion only had one arm left, but it was about to
He pulled out his bone knife from Warrant Officer Papel's back.
The severely burned face turned around and stared at Lieutenant Mia, who was struggling to pull out the hunting knife, with the most terrifying nightmare attitude.
On this highland filled with gunpowder smoke and death, against the background of the shouts of killing that seemed to never quiet down in the front positions, one man and one wolf stared at each other.
They are probably the last ones alive here.
"Pooh"
Mia, who was also burned, spat a mouthful of blood to the side. A fragment was stuck in her chest and she could no longer breathe smoothly. She knew she was dead, and even if she killed the jackal, she would not survive.
But at the last moment of her life, she did not choose to escape. Instead, she reached out and held the military emblem on her chest decorated with three bloody gold stars. This thing seemed to give her strength, allowing her to take the initiative to pounce on the hunting elect with her hunting knife.
In the past, the latter was also at the end of his game but still smiled ferociously and stepped forward to meet the enemy, but unexpectedly a figure jumped up from behind.
That's Warrant Officer North!
He was so miserable, both of his legs were blown off, and his handsome face was full of scars, but at this moment, he gritted his teeth and threw himself behind the hunting elector, using his last strength to restrain it with only the remaining
With her arm, Mia, who was rushing towards her in the smoke, could insert the sharp chasseur's knife into the jackal's heart, smash it into pieces, pull it out, and insert it into its second heart.
How to kill a jackal is the first lesson for the hunters after joining the army.
Even if the Hunting Chosen couldn't survive with both hearts destroyed, this fierce man still inserted his weird bone knife into Lieutenant Mia's waist and abdomen before he died.
Heaven and earth live together.
In the next second, the three people fell down together. Mia struggled to crawl over and hugged North, who only breathed his last breath.
"Ha, cough, my first bloody star. I will catch up with you soon."
While coughing up blood, North tried his best to smile and said to Mia:
"I'm. the best, right?"
"Of course you are!"
Mia also felt that life was constantly escaping from her body, like a burst balloon. She felt dizzy. At the last moment, she said to North:
"The three of us are the best Jaegers, and we didn't embarrass the kids on Fink Street."
"Stay alive, Mia."
North's voice weakened and he said:
"They all say that Transia has no future, but I don't believe it. Live! Look for me and Paper."
Mia could no longer answer him, and the lieutenant had closed her eyes.
No one could stand up on this dead high ground, until a pair of huge blood wings spread out in the smoke. The stern tribune Kudel looked at this tragic battlefield, but he was heartbroken.
, when I saw the corpse of the hunting elect, I couldn't help but sigh at the ferocity of the hunters.
Is this really something a mortal can do?
No one responded to Kudel. The tribune sighed and prepared to leave, but in the next second his vampire senses told him where the last breath of life came from.
With a swish sound, Kudel almost teleported to Lieutenant Mia. He looked at the thin female soldier who had embarked on the road to death but could still be saved. The tribune knew that there was only one way to save her.
But that meant breaking the rules he had set for himself.
Kudel hesitated for a moment. He looked at the killed hunter elects. They had accomplished such a miracle with their mortal bodies. Aren't these hunters worthy of breaking that ridiculous rule?
I became a vampire a hundred years ago.
I have just been deceiving myself. The power of this curse can be used to do something good.
So he stretched out his hand and placed it on Mia's severely burned forehead, and used the vampire's secret method to ask:
"Brave hunter, are you willing to start a second life with the curse of a vampire?"
"I, I, want to live."
The weak response represented strong obsession. Kudel bared his canine teeth at the corner of his mouth. Before embracing him for the first time, he asked:
"Why? Is there anything you must accomplish that would make you willing to abandon the purity of your soul to survive?"
"I want to see the future. I want to see the future with my own eyes. The future of Transia led by Lord Murphy. I want to live. I promised them."
