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

Chapter 36 Bloody Sun General

Half an hour later, the entire building was cleaned up.

It has to be said that when facing sporadic and small groups of enemies, the combat effectiveness of the Holy Blood Warriors is still quite strong.

Li Shi, who served as a shield guard, stood there with a large door panel placed on the ground. All the demons that attacked from the front were knocked down by him with a short spear, while the enemies who wanted to detour from the side were easily dealt with by Zeng Yi and Xu Lie.

Xie Liu was only responsible for defending the rear, so the pressure was small. In addition, she was faster than the other three and could easily deal with lone enemies.

After one round of fighting, Chen Jian had a more intuitive understanding of their combat capabilities.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is strong, but not to a degree beyond imagination.

Especially in narrow areas, the ability of large-scale high-speed maneuvers brought about by greater strength and stronger body structure is severely limited, resulting in the fact that the strength they can exert is probably less than one-third of their own upper limit.

So if I want to have a falling out with them in the future.
It's best to deal with them indoors.

Chen Jian silently recorded this weakness on his PDA, and in the same intelligence folder, he had recorded more than twenty similar pieces of information.

Mechanicus, Holy Blood, Terror, Water Ghost, Giant Monster.
This thing will become one of the most important bargaining chips in the future, and it will also be the trump card that enables him to gain a foothold in this land.

Of course, the members of the Holy Blood Squad would never know that their weaknesses exposed in every battle had been recorded.

They probably thought that Chen Jian asked them to clean up the mess simply to save ammunition.
After returning to the rooftop, He Shuo, who stayed behind, had cleared out the observation space, set up his 10mm sniper rifle, and aimed at the Terror Camp two kilometers away.

Shen Yue, who was acting as an observer, held VECTOR 23 and reported to Chen Jian while observing:
"The target camp has been marked on the map. It can be confirmed that it is the Blood Skull's main camp on the west coast."

"The camp is about 400 meters long and wide, and the buildings are quite dense and crowded."

"We have detected more than 100 active targets outdoors, and it is estimated that there are at least 300 enemies in the camp."

"A large number of cold weapons were found, as well as a small number of hot weapons such as guns, mortars, and rocket launchers."

"Someone is carrying weapons to the iron building in the middle. I guess that's their arsenal."

"If we want to rob, we can only go deep into the camp, but there is basically no possibility of sneaking in."

"The situation is very complicated and difficult to handle."

After Shen Yue finished speaking, Chen Jian nodded slowly.

Just as Xu Lie had said before, this Blood Skeleton camp was truly a turtle shell.

The demons were obviously not as good as humans at complex tactical arrangements and city defense deployments, so they chose the most brainless and simplest defensive strategy.

That is, concentrate all combat forces together as much as possible. The denser the concentration, the lower the possibility of being infiltrated or breached.

How the hell do you play this?
If the purpose was just to destroy this group of blood skeletons and wipe out this camp from the map, even with limited ammunition, Chen Jian had a hundred ways to deal with them.

But the problem is that his purpose is not to "clean up" but to "plunder", and then things become troublesome.

Not only must you ensure the safety of the equipment supplies in the armory, you also have to kill hundreds of blood skeletons?

What is the Manchu exercise script?

Chen Jian finally understood why the Hanshui City Defense Department did not send people to wipe out the entire camp. To put it bluntly, the cost-effectiveness was too low.

Now the same is true for my own team. If we really want to clean it up bit by bit, even if we can clean it up completely, the consumption of bullets will be alarming. Don't just grab a few mortar shells and a few bullets in the end, otherwise it will be a waste of effort.
Chen Jian frowned, looking at the demons on a rooftop in the camp who were torturing and killing captured prisoners for fun. He was at a loss for a moment.

Looking at his expression, Lei Jie thought for a moment and asked:
"Will fire attack work? It's almost October now, the weather is dry and the wind direction is suitable."

“If we can get around to the north side and light a fire, the fire should spread quickly.”

"No, as soon as they find a fire, they will definitely evacuate with their equipment. It will be more difficult to catch them then."

Chen Jian shook his head, and Shen Yue asked:

"Poison? They need to eat and drink, right?"

".Do they look like they have a centralized food source? It's hard to poison hundreds of people, unless you can find some VX or something to spread over them."

"But as far as I know, we can't find this kind of poison in our country."

The situation was at a stalemate. Xu Lie, who was standing nearby, was also observing the camp with a simple telescope that he had found from somewhere. After a long while, he spoke:
"Like I said, we really can't do much about these horrors."

"If it doesn't work, just withdraw first. The equipment problem will eventually be solved. Maybe if you wait patiently for a few days, the shells you want will appear on the market."

"Or, if you have no choice, you can take the initiative to contact the Mechanicus and try to get supplies from them." "What you said is nonsense."

Chen Jian interrupted mercilessly:

"If we had considered those options as our first choice, we wouldn't be here in the first place."

As he spoke, Chen Jian raised the telescope again, trying to find a loophole that could be broken through in the demon's camp.

But the moment his view turned to the camp, his expression suddenly changed.

A huge, fat, ugly humanoid monster covered in heavy scrap metal pieces linked together by iron chains was crawling out of the tin house in the center of the camp.

All the demons that saw it fell to the ground, as if kneeling before it.

It held a twisted iron spear made of rebar in its hand, and randomly stabbed a demon on the roadside, skewered his body, and brought it to its mouth to bite it hard.

The cheers from the Terror Demons could be heard clearly even from two kilometers away. Chen Jian was horrified and asked:
"What is that again??"

Xu Lie quickly looked in the direction Chen Jian pointed, and after finally getting the focus right, he opened his mouth and replied:

"General Bloody Sun."

"Some people also call it the Blood Lord."

"It is the supreme leader of the Blood Skeleton Camp. It usually does not go out for activities. It is probably holding some ceremony today."

General Bloody Sun?
The name sounds pretty strong.
"Is it strong?"

Chen Jian asked.

“Not too strong.”

Xu Lie shook his head and said:
"If we classify monsters by level, it can only be ranked as level five."

"But the problem is that it has almost no obvious weaknesses, so to fight it, we can only rely on the purest head-on confrontation."

"You can see that with a body over four meters tall, powerful strength, and completely mismatched agility, the combat power it can exert is still quite impressive."

"It's almost impossible for the four of us to deal with it. We need to gather at least 12 Holy Bloods, including at least 4 Shield Guards, to kill it."

“That’s really strong.”

After Chen Jian pondered for a moment, he suddenly asked:
"If it dies, what will the remaining horrors do?"

"I do not know."

Xu Lie spread his hands and said:
"But they will probably retaliate regardless of the consequences, such as rushing to Hanshui City to attack it. Wait a minute?!"

He looked at Chen Jian with a horrified look.

Before he could continue speaking, Chen Jian asked:
"Can the defenses of Hanshui City hold it off?"

"It should be possible—but you can't do that!"

"Think about the civilians in the city. They might die because of this!"

"They won't."

Chen Jian shook his head and replied:
"The administrators of Hanshui City are going to collect taxes, right?"

"If the tax collectors let the tax payers die first, then this city really needs a new owner."

Xu Lie seemed to be convinced by Chen Jian, but after a moment, he hesitated and asked:

"Is it worth making such a big fuss just for a little equipment?"

Chen Jian shook his head again.

"This is not just for the sake of equipment - don't you understand? I want to create an opportunity for Hanshui City, an opportunity to completely resolve the threat from the Blood Skeletons in the surrounding area."

"We are taking a huge risk and sacrificing ourselves for others."

"It's not too much to ask for a small reward, right?"
