Not long after the insect men led by John broke out of the insect swarm, a sharp whistling sound suddenly came from above their heads. Several soldiers looked up subconsciously, but could not see anything.
At this time, there were faint muffled sounds from the northwest, as if a thunderstorm was brewing there. Looking far into the distance, you could still vaguely see the flickering light of fire.
"Navy guns!" Rand subconsciously uttered two words. Before he finished speaking, a series of roars suddenly came from the direction of the laboratory. Everyone turned around instinctively, just in time to see rows of bright fires exploding in the jungle behind them.
Not in groups, but in straight lines, they exploded one after another, advancing step by step like a wall of flames. Regardless of trees, stones, giant insects or insect-men, they were all torn to pieces by the exploding shells, some of which were broken into pieces.
The stone and broken wood even flew over a distance of nearly a hundred meters and landed near everyone.
Many bugmen were terrified. If they had been a little slower just now, wouldn't they have been directly covered by the bombardment?
The cannon doesn't know which side you are on, so as long as you are within the power range of the explosion, it will definitely be no good.
"Barrage Xu Jin?" Rand almost bit his tongue. Isn't this the specialty of the Army? When did warships start to play this trick? How many warships were parked in that direction?
John didn't give Rand a chance to continue thinking. He turned around and shouted, "Let's go!"
Don't stay where things are wrong for long... Among the more than sixty people, Carlos was probably the only one who heard this sentence, but not hearing it didn't mean that John didn't understand this truth.
The team quickly moved northward under the leadership of John, and soon the battlefield was far behind them.
While the Insects were away from the battlefield, the defender commander He Xiangdong was losing his temper in the laboratory and commanding the guard platoon to search for traces of the Insects.
Even though the insect swarm had already arrived at the door of the house, the defenders had also withdrawn to the vicinity of the laboratory, and there were also fire support from warships. The chance of the insect swarm breaking through the defenders' defense line was extremely small, and He Xiangdong was not worried about this at all.
But the disappearance of the Bug Man was different. He led the entire regiment to station on Buha Island. In addition to guarding against aliens, the most important task was to guard the Bug Man. As a result, the Bug Man suddenly disappeared. No matter how you look at it, this is a scapegoat.
He Xiangdong couldn't get rid of him even if he wanted to.
After the initial impatience dissipated, He Xiangdong had calmed down. He keenly realized that the key to the problem was not when the bugs disappeared, but to find the missing bugs as soon as possible!
However, a swarm of insects gathered outside the laboratory, surrounding the entire laboratory layer by layer. Unless the insect men were still surrounded, there would be no place to look for them.
In desperation, he could only call in some people to look for clues.
If he can find clues and catch the bug man, then he can just pretend that nothing happened, otherwise, he will have no choice but to shoulder the blame.
He Xiangdong was not a Ninja Turtle in the sewer. He really didn't want to take the blame, so he used all available methods without affecting the battle.
He Xiangdong originally hoped that the soldiers could find clues in the shortest possible time, but the soldiers from the guard platoon were timid after entering the laboratory and did not dare to mess around at all.
Are you kidding, where is this place? This is the laboratory of the Insects. A group of Insects are mysterious all day long and do biochemical experiments. Only the devil knows what experiments the Insects have done in this place. Maybe which bottle contains the
It's a super virus. Which one can just mess around?
Fortunately, He Xiangdong didn't need the soldiers to dig around. The insect men were all tall and had no place to hide. As long as they were still in this laboratory, the soldiers would definitely be able to dig them out.
The gunfire was rumbling outside the laboratory, and there was a lot of excitement in the laboratory, but no clue could be found. He Xiangdong's heart kept sinking. He was obviously a calm character, but at this moment he was like an ant on a hot pot.
.
Just as he was impatient, the guard platoon leader cautiously ran out from the depths of the laboratory: "Report..."
"How's it going? Have you found any clues?" He Xiangdong asked impatiently.
"There is no report!" the platoon leader replied in a muffled voice, "But all the research materials are there."
He Xiangdong said angrily: "What's the use of just having information? What I want is people, people!"
The platoon leader couldn't answer at all, so he could only stand there blankly, letting He Xiangdong's spit spray on his face.
At this time, a captain officer carrying a rifle ran in from the door: "Captain, we found a clue!"
He Xiangdong was overjoyed: "What clue?"
"The missing guards were found, but they were both unconscious and couldn't be woken up. It's certain that the bugmen left from the north."
"North?" He Xiangdong's claws suddenly became numb. "That's the direction where the insect swarm is most concentrated. Have the insect people taken refuge with the aliens? Or have they been controlled by the aliens again?"
The bugs and the defenders cooperated with each other and were wary of each other at the same time. The relationship between the two parties was very subtle, so He Xiangdong never knew that Phil and other bugs had extraordinary special powers.
The captain didn't speak, and the second lieutenant and platoon leader didn't dare to talk nonsense. For a while, all they could hear was He Xiangdong's mumbling to himself.
He Xiangdong quickly put aside the questions in his mind: "No matter what, report to your superiors immediately and apply for satellite monitoring of the entire island. We must find the insect man!"
The military acted very quickly. After receiving the application from Buha Island, it only took a few minutes for a satellite to focus its lens on Buha Island and start searching for traces of the bugs.
But no matter how the satellite scanned, there was no trace of the bugs... To be more precise, the island was too chaotic. A large number of bugs landed along with the insect swarms. There were bug activities in all directions on Buha Island. There were no traces of bugs at all.
No one knows which group escaped from the laboratory!
Faced with this result, He Xiangdong was on the verge of tears. In addition, the insect swarm's offensive became more and more fierce. He could only suppress the idea of chasing the insect people in his heart and deal with the insect swarm's attack first.
With the assistance of battleships, the Marine Corps under He Xiangdong fought fiercely with the insect swarm until dawn. At this time, the Tiangong sailed over Buha Island. Under the order of Beidu, the Tiangong provided the defenders with weapons on Buha Island.
With one fire coverage, countless lasers fell from the sky, killing all the giant insects and insect-men exposed on the ground. The entire Buha Island was instantly reduced to scorched earth, with only the surrounding area of the laboratory not covered by lasers.
When He Xiangdong led the soldiers out of the laboratory, there was no trace of green anywhere in sight, only charred branches were left in the jungle, only the charred corpses of the insect swarms and insect-men were left, and the air was filled with
There was a burning smell, and a breeze blew by, raising choking smoke and soot all over the sky.
The aliens attacked regardless of losses, but in the end they were unable to withstand human firepower.
