Chapter 378: Forged on the Anvil of War

"It's over! We're going to be captured by the Zerg!"

"No! I don't want to be captured yet!"

"Quick, think of something!"

"What can we do? They are Zerg, who is going to come and save us!"

More than twenty Human survivors were currently surrounded by over a dozen Hormagaunts in a building, watching in despair as the Hormagaunts continuously tore apart the building's walls.

Just then, the Hormagaunts seemed to sense something and stopped their movements, but the next second, a crisp gunshot rang out, accompanied by a Hormagaunt being blown apart by half its body.

This turn of events happened too quickly, causing the desperate survivors inside the building to stop crying, and the scenes that followed left this group of survivors dumbfounded.

"Into the fires of battle, unto the Anvil of War!"

Five burly men wearing green Armor were seen holding various weapons, charging toward these Hormagaunts; those Hormagaunts that they could not resist could not last a single move in the hands of these burly men, and each attack would take away the life of a Hormagaunt.

By the time these survivors reacted, those Hormagaunts had already become incomplete fragments of corpses, and one of the burly men wearing green Armor walked out to say to the survivors inside the building.

"You are safe now, the Alien have been eliminated by us, reinforcements will arrive soon, come with us."

These survivors watched as the five burly men wearing green Armor slowly walked out of the building. One of the survivors asked.

"Excuse me, are you here to save us?"

"That's right, come with us, there are many Alien here, we must gather you all first to prevent those Alien from harming you."

Although these survivors did not know the identity of these burly men wearing green Armor before them, these burly men were actually able to kill those Zerg with ease, so there was no use in them being afraid.

Besides, the other party had already said they were here to save them; could there be a more miserable fate than being captured by the Zerg?

"Thank you!"

"Brothers, we must protect them, spread out the formation."

At the same time, at the center of the Breeding Ground, a Salamander warrior saw from the top of a building that dense swarms of Zerg were approaching the Breeding Ground from the outside, and immediately reported the situation to his teammates below.

"Brother, the number of Alien around this Breeding Ground is quite a bit higher than the Breeding Grounds we went to before; they have already swarmed into the Breeding Ground and will soon run into our brothers who are rescuing the survivors."

Upon receiving the situation regarding the Zerg, the Salamander warrior immediately shouted loudly to the survivors gathered below.

"A large number of Alien are currently swarming in this direction; we will protect your safety, but do not panic and run away when you encounter Alien in a moment, to avoid the Alien harming you!"

Soon, this Salamander warrior saw Huokan bringing nearly two hundred survivors to the assembly point and walked up to say to Huokan.

"My brother, the Alien have now begun a large-scale invasion of this place; we need manpower to protect them. There is only me and the brothers above here, and those Alien can easily break through our defensive line and go in to harm the civilians."

After hearing this news, Huokan asked this Salamander warrior.

"Shantan, how many survivors are here already?"

"About 20,000-plus people; the number of people in this Breeding Ground has far exceeded the number we previously predicted. I have already sent a request for support to the Military District; we need more aircraft and warriors here to protect these survivors so they can leave here smoothly."

Huokan nodded and said to Shantan.

"Rest assured, Father will definitely agree to the request. I will stay with my brothers to help you; at least the area we just passed through no longer has any survivors."

"That is great. Other squads should arrive here soon. I have already arranged for most of the survivors to go to a place where Transport Aircraft can land; that place should have been a large Tiyuchang once. As long as we hold the two main passages, we can block quite a few Alien. Even if those Alien enter from other parts of the Tiyuchang, it will take them quite a bit of time. There are too many survivors here; we must buy them time to evacuate."

"No problem, my brother."

Soon, several other Salamander Squads rescuing survivors also brought many survivors here. After arranging the survivors at the evacuation point, Huokan said to Shantan.

"Kuayasi and I will go outside to intercept the Alien; your squad will come to deal with the Alien we missed."

Shantan gripped the Bolter in his hand and said in a solemn voice.

"Good, into the fires of battle, unto the Anvil of War!"

Huokan and Kuayasi nodded and replied in the same way.

"Into the fires of battle!"

"Unto the Anvil of War!"

The two Salamander Squads left the Transport Aircraft evacuation point and arrived at a street not far from the evacuation point.

Kuayasi asked Huokan, who was standing beside him.

"My brother, I think we have to separate for now. The number of Alien is high, and they are everywhere. I will go to the other side of the evacuation point to attract the attention of the Alien; this will prevent Shantan and the others inside from being under too much pressure."

"Agreed."

After Kuayasi left with his squad, Huokan felt the tremors getting closer and closer. The other Salamander warriors also gripped the weapons in their hands and looked toward the distant street.

Soon, a group of Hormagaunts mixed with some Termagants and suicide bugs rushed toward the evacuation point. Five Salamander warriors stepped forward; two of the Salamander warriors raised the flamethrowers in their hands and opened fire on the Zerg rushing up in front, tongues of fire spraying out, while the other three Salamander warriors used the Chainswords in their hands to hack the Alien that reached them in two.

The Hormagaunts rushing in the front were instantly Devoured by the flames, emitting short and shrill screams, while some Hormagaunts behind crawled on the walls of the buildings on both sides, attempting to break through from the sides and attack the area behind where a large number of ordinary people were gathered.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The five Salamander warriors waiting in formation in the back were seen quickly raising the Bolters in their hands, rapidly aiming at those Zerg attempting to traverse the building walls.

Accompanied by deafening roars, one Bolter shell after another flew straight toward the Zerg.

In an instant, fire soared into the sky, smoke and dust filled the air, and every Bolter shell accurately shattered its target, ruthlessly Harvest-ing the lives of those Zerg.

At this moment, Huokan, who was changing ammunition for his Bolter, suddenly caught a glimpse of a large number of Zerg still emerging continuously from other directions. They were like a surging tide, crazily rushing toward the Tiyuchang and climbing up along various rugged walls, attempting to break into the interior of the Tiyuchang.

However, a fierce burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from inside the Tiyuchang. Bolter shells were fired from within the Tiyuchang, instantly tearing the Zerg that rushed up to pieces.
