Chapter 48 Rat Extermination Operation
When faced with more than 20 gophers, it is impossible to eliminate them completely quietly.

So from the very beginning, Chen Jian did not issue the order to "quietly annihilate the enemy."

All he had to do was end the battle as quickly as possible and then evacuate in the shortest time possible.

There is no need to worry that the sound will wake up the dormant level 3 monster. The range is nearly 30 kilometers in all directions. Even if it is very close, it will take time for it to catch up.

As long as there is no "guide" left behind, the team can retreat to a safe distance at the full speed.

Therefore, as soon as he went downstairs, Chen Jian ordered all the team members to deploy on the spot, go towards the approaching mole, and actively provoke a conflict.

At the same time, the Holy Bloods also entered combat status and rushed at full speed in the direction indicated by Chen Jian.

After bypassing a large patch of bushes growing in the cracks of the asphalt road, Chen Jian saw the first enemy.

Without any hesitation, the 191 in his hand opened fire instantly.

As the gunshot rang out, the 5.8mm bullet flew out of the chamber and pierced the monster's head.

Blood splattered everywhere, brain matter flew everywhere, and the monster fell to the ground without even a groan. Only its conditioned muscles were still causing its body to hesitate.

The remaining monsters all stood up as if awakened by the gunshots, their heads turning around as if trying to find the source of the gunshots.

Looking at their huge, upright ears, Chen Jian finally understood how they worked.

When they can't hear any sound, they use their sense of smell to find their target.

When you can hear the sound, use your ears and eyes to find it!

These were definitely natural reconnaissance units. Chen Jian even suspected that they had ultrasonic hearing like bats, because he noticed that as the monsters' heads turned, their throats were constantly rising and falling, and they should obviously be making sounds, but he couldn't hear any!
Wow, it has its own radar, right?

Chen Jian kept moving. After killing one monster, he quickly moved and knocked down another monster that was trying to escape.

At the same time, he loudly ordered:
"Don't pursue killing them first, surround them first!"

"understand!"

"Roger that!"

The other team members' responses came through the headset, and the next second, the sound of 201 general-purpose machine guns rang out intermittently on the north side opposite Chen Jian.

"Bang bang bang bang -"

After a few short bursts of fire, the gophers panicked and advanced toward the south side.

They had obviously discovered Chen Jian and other "enemies", but they seemed to have no desire to take the initiative to fight.

On the contrary, they want to run.

"Don't let them get away!"

"Xu Lie! Take your men and charge in, hold them back!"

"I know!"

Xu Lie's vague voice was transmitted to Chen Jian's ears through a specific frequency through his old radio. A few seconds later, Chen Jian saw the figures of the Holy Blood Squad rushing into the group of moles.

He originally thought that for the Holy Blood, exterminating these gophers should be as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, but in fact, Xu Lie and his team's progress was not smooth!

Those gophers are also fast, and their quadrupedal crawling style of locomotion is advantageous in dense undergrowth.

The long knife in Zeng Yi's hand should have been the most threatening weapon, but at this time, his knife force was constantly blocked by the bushes, so it took him several swings before he finally killed a mole!
Powerless.

They are "chasing" at an equally fast speed, but once they catch up you won't be able to hit you. What can you do?
No wonder the previous Holy Blood scouts also died here. It was not that they could not beat the gophers, but that they could not catch or stop the gophers, so they alarmed the real monster.

You can't rely on them.

Chen Jian responded quickly and gave the order:

"Holy Blood, retreat! Block other escape routes!"

"We're going to throw grenades!"

"understand!"

After the order was given, the Holy Blood warriors led by Xu Lie quickly dispersed. At the same time, the 82-2P1 in the hands of Chen Jian and others had already been used.

With a slight "ding" sound, the grenade handle popped off.

The detonator ignited the explosive charge inside. In an instant, the steel balls flying at explosive speed tore the low bushes into pieces and then embedded deeply into the bodies of the gophers.

After four explosions, at least seven or eight gophers fell to the ground and were no longer able to make any sound.

The remaining gophers put away the "olfactory sacs" on their backs, lowered their bodies, and began to flee desperately.

Now comes the hardest part!

How can you wipe them all out in a jungle with numerous shelters and poor visibility without the enemy actively attacking you?

This is definitely one of the biggest problems in the history of war. Even the powerful Americans had to use that special "orange juice". Now, the problem Chen Jian faces is even more complicated than that of the Americans, because his enemies can't even fire a gun, they can only run forward with their heads down!

In other words, Chen Jian was decisive enough and blocked them in the low bushes.

If they were allowed to run into the taller tree forests in the north, even drones would find it difficult to track them.

"Xu Lie! Go north!"

"Don't let any of them go!"

"I know!"

Xu Lie's voice was a little breathless, and it was obvious that this was really not a combat environment he was good at.

Chen Jian walked forward on the dense bushes, but felt that he could not increase his speed, so he immediately switched the exoskeleton from marching mode to combat mode.

At this moment, he suddenly felt like he had gone from hell to heaven.

What shrub?
What branch?
It broke with a wave of the hand!
With his heavy weight and the multiplied strength provided by the exoskeleton, the bushes in front of him were finally no longer an obstacle.

The speed was immediately increased, Lei Jie and Shen Yue followed suit, and in less than half a minute, the three of them arrived at the new interception position.

"Boom!"

“Bang bang—”

“Da Da——”

After a few intermittent gunshots, there were only three gophers left, and they were rushing towards the location where Xu Lie and Zeng Yi had arrived earlier.

Two people and three monsters, you can stop them, right?
-
but no.

Zeng Yi swung his knife and chopped down a mole.

Xu Lie shot down another one with one shot, but the last one nimbly made an arc and almost brushed past Xu Lie's feet, and the knife he swung with his other hand just missed.

When they wanted to look back, the mole had already crawled under the dense bushes and disappeared completely from their sight.

"Depend on!"

Chen Jian cursed and then ordered:
"Xu Lie! Move aside!"

Immediately afterwards, the weapon rack on the exoskeleton unfolded and two sleeve arrow micro missiles whizzed out.

At this time, Chen Jian couldn't care whether the infrared tracking module of the missile would mistakenly identify Xu Lie as a target. Theoretically speaking, the distance of more than 100 meters was not enough for the tracking function to take effect.

If it really explodes, just consider it your bad luck.

But it was obvious that Xu Lie was quite lucky, or he jumped up quite quickly.

Neither of the two missiles locked onto his position, but flew past where he was originally standing after he jumped nearly 10 meters away.

The next second, the missile hit the ground and exploded.

Debris flew everywhere, along with the shattered body of the monster.

After the dust settled, Xu Lie asked with lingering fear:

"What was that you just typed out?"

"Never mind what that is."

Chen Jian stared at the image flowing on the smart eyepiece.

Just now, the drone hovering in the air has issued a new warning.

Abnormal heat source warning.

The gunshots and explosions here did indeed alarm the monster.

Less than 3 kilometers away from the Thompson Lake, a huge monster was landing.

No wonder I couldn't find it before.

This thing is amphibious!

"Go quickly!"

"Retreat to the direction of Baishazhou Bridge to lure it out of the city and gain a view for the artillery fire."

"The drones are keeping the airborne surveillance going."

"I want to see what this thing is!"
