Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 31 Quiet Killing

Night is the home turf of the terror demons. Relying on their flexible bodies and sharp vision, they can often launch a surprise attack when the humans in the settlement are caught off guard.

Although such raids are unlikely to achieve effective results, and in most cases the raids themselves are merely a means for them to vent their violent desires, they have indeed caused considerable trouble to the people here.

Especially the inaccurate shelling that occurred every ten days or half a month, which woke up countless people from their dreams.

Even if their greatest achievement was to blow up a buffalo kept in a sun cocoon, it was enough for them to leave with joy and offer their heads to their blood god.

After all, they couldn't do anything to the people living in the settlement, and those people couldn't do anything to them.

The battles between the two sides always come and go quickly like a child's play. The demons are unwilling to let their warriors bleed in vain, and humans are unwilling to waste bullets on these low-intelligence creatures.

The "attack" seems to have become a routine ritual, forming a dynamically balanced ecology.

Both sides knew it would happen at some point, and both sides knew it would not cause serious consequences, so they tacitly ignored it.

That's the rule.

But today, the leader of this assault team consisting of more than a dozen demon warriors seemed to smell something unusual.

His brain, which had long since shrunk due to repeated inheritance, had no idea what had happened. It was just that his intuition formed by long-term killing told him that there seemed to be danger lurking around him.

So what is it?

The leader stood on a high hill, overlooking the charging warriors below.

He saw those vague shadows gathering together and rushing towards the simple stone wall outside Hanshui City with strange cries.

The guard on the stone wall fired several shots, but missed his fighters.

The enraged warriors continued to charge forward and soon arrived under the stone wall.

The warrior suddenly jumped up and tried to poke the guard off the stone wall with the rusty spear in his hand, but the guard had already stepped back two steps and was ready for battle. Instead, he used a long wooden stick to poke the warrior who was already halfway up the wall down.

Joyful laughter suddenly rang out from the stone wall, and the leader roared angrily, and the sound pierced through the entire night.

But there was nothing he could do.

Today, he might not be blessed by the Blood God, so that the "carefully" planned raid did not even yield a drop of blood.

The blocked demon warriors tried to bypass the stone wall, but they soon found that if they really ran such a long distance, they would not have the strength to fight.

It would be better to turn back.

The blood of these humans living together is not thicker than that of those humans who are alone, or even thicker than that of water ghosts soaking in the water.

Let's go!

Withdraw!

The Blood God would never punish me because of this little accident. I just needed to offer him a few more heads during the next sacrifice.

The leader's hands were shaking slightly. He didn't know that this was a sequelae of long-term cannibalism. He just thought that this was a blessing bestowed by the Blood God for sinners like him.

It was as if he didn't know that less than 100 meters away from him, an extremely sharp knife had penetrated the darkness and was swinging towards him.
The drone was hovering in the air. Chen Jian was quietly watching the leader-like demon in the distance, holding a QSW4 with only 06 bullets in his hand.

Lei Jie on the side was holding a QCQ171 and ready for battle, while Shen Yue and He Shuo each occupied the commanding heights to provide cover for the two people who were about to launch a surprise attack.

Through the images transmitted by the drone, Chen Jian clearly saw the heat signals that were retreating.

He was surprised at the rashness of the so-called "raid" launched by these terrifying demons, but vaguely felt it was reasonable.

Indeed, according to Xu Lie, the conflict between the Blood Skeletons and the surviving humans has lasted for hundreds of years.

Over the past hundreds of years, both sides have already figured out each other's strength.

The Blood Skeletons cannot kill all humans, and humans do not have the energy to completely wipe them out.

Under such a balance, isn’t it natural that such “limited” conflicts become the mainstream?
The only thing that puzzled him was that these demons actually had mortars in their hands, while the survivors just sat there and watched.

They don't want mortars?

Or, they don't actually know how to use it?

It should be the latter.

After all, all the "local firearms" he had seen were direct-aiming weapons. Projectile trajectories and indirect aiming were still a bit too complicated for humans who were technologically backward. That was perfect, so he could pick up this loophole.

Chen Jian stretched out his hand and made a few gestures in front of him. The intelligent eyepiece quickly completed the calculation, and in an instant, the order was issued to everyone in the team.

"Lei Jie made a detour from the left and fired first to attract the enemy's attention."

"I attacked from the front and took out the high-value targets."

"Shen Yue, He Shuo, be alert. Do not open fire unless it is an extreme situation."

"Quietly intervene and quietly withdraw."

"clear."

"clear."

The reply came immediately, and Chen Jian also took action immediately.

He crawled forward in a low posture with QSW06 in hand, using the rugged terrain to shield his body, and gradually approached a rock less than 30 meters away from the leader.

Now, there are only 6 enemies in front of him.

Two of them were cleaning up the unidentified mortars on the ground, two stayed on guard, and the other strong demon was escorting the leader to retreat.

This is the best time.

Without any hesitation, Chen Jian stood up from behind the rock.

The bright red dot locked onto the leader's head, and at the same time, a slight sound came from not far away.

"despair--"

The crisp sound like a branch breaking did not attract the attention of the demon leader. He continued to move forward, but suddenly he found that the warrior beside him had disappeared.

He looked back and saw that the warrior who had followed him for several years was lying on the ground, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Get up! Get up! Idiot!"

A hoarse shout came out of his mouth, but the next second.

"despair!"

There was another soft sound, and a 5.8mm silenced bullet avoided the welding helmet on his head, went into his chin, and exited from his spine.

Blood gushed out and the leader fell on his back.

Chen Jian put away his pistol, not wanting to waste even a single bullet.

He simply drew out his dagger and walked straight towards the target, while in front of him, the remaining four demons fell one after another.

When he walked to the enemy's "bombardment position", the last demon that tried to rush towards him was tripped by a slight sound and fell right at his feet.

Chen Jian held the dagger in his hand and slashed the opponent's spine. With the help of the lever, he pried the body lightly, and the body, which was still struggling and not completely dead, instantly collapsed.

Then came the second, third, and fourth.

Lei Jie, who arrived, used the same method to finish off the leader and his guards, then quickly stepped forward and carried two mortars each together with Chen Jian.

"There are still two shells, that's great!"

Reggie said cheerfully.

“It’s a little, but it’s better than nothing.”

"201 Force, it's such a waste to leave this thing in their hands."

"No wonder it can still fire. This cannon is made of pure titanium alloy."

"walk home!"
